>NewFAQs Newfags might be overwhelmed by the information overload at the beginning. Do yourself a favor and "turn off system notifications" in the Settings>Game options. Check everything in that window. Avoid lag by turning off High End mode in the Settings>Screen tab. Be sure to check "Remove other's effects" and uncheck "Display other's names" for an enjoyable world boss experience. For everyone's sake, read the links, Google it, and Ctrl+F, BEFORE asking the same stupid question other people previously have in the same thread. If you don't know if the game is "worth it," ask for a guest pass in the thread.
I saw a tamer that looked just like that at Susans EU yesterday. Seemed autistic, didn't say a single word, and followed me around for the rotation unlike half of the group.
Cameron Howard
Should have PK'd it
Alexander Howard
who /still cant decide on a class/ here?
Carson Roberts
>tfw can only mainline bdo for a month until I have to go be a park ranger >tfw no internet innawoods chasing off bears and shit
It was fun while it lasted bois
Oliver Lopez
I can't, I've got a warrior, maewha, sorc and dk all to 56 and I'm now leveling a Berserker.
Andrew Morales
Me! I've pretty much chosen one by sinking a lot of money into its items so I get stuck in the sunken cost fallacy.
Why would you do that? Do you at least get paid well? I love going out innawoods for hiking and shit, but I don't know if I could handle doing it for long periods of time.
Brandon Rogers
for reference, that was my character when I started posting on /bdog/
Liam Thomas
> sunken cost fallacy.
Fancy meeting such a well-read fellow in these here nether regions!

Jack Lopez
no
Josiah Morgan

Sebastian Taylor
Sorry, I'm already married
Kevin Bell

Bentley Wilson
Cows can't get married
Luis Jones
Post your gear
Luis Green
I posted mine yesterday though!
Juan Bennett

Gabriel Morris
If you have enough money, pick up PRI Blue Coral Earrings. Same AP as your witches and a lot cheaper.
Sell Witch afterwards and then you'll have some extra silver for upgrading other stuff.
Henry Murphy
My gear is absolute shit
Nathan Parker
am and i'm so close i can taste it
Jordan King
>+15 helm >PRI chest >DUO gloves
Better to prioritize chest and helmet, get more DP out of it that way.
Cooper Cox
>duo-ing green armor >when you still have a +15 offhand
Jacob White
Or, as someone else said, just get roaring armor and not waste money on chest until tree armor, you can get roaring at lvl 56
Kayden Garcia

Alexander Parker
It's hard getting PRI Blue Coral though, I've been watching the market trying to get some for a while now.
Xavier Murphy
>nouver on a wizard/witch u srs m8
Ethan Morris
I got full grunil before I found out roaring was a thing qq
Hunter Allen
Yeah, basicly a free duo chest piece with accuracy bonus. Can't really go wrong with that.
Luis Hughes
Gotta love how veterans in my guild start bragging about how "easy" it was to get their TET shit, and influence noobs into blowing their hard earned fine accesories with low failstacks. They're so rotten jesus christ, this poor girl just threw all her money into a PRI seraph and was left with nothing, I think she is uninstalling now.
Mason Gutierrez
why the hell do you have a rosar dagger on a wizard
Dominic Bennett
>inb4 memes
Tyler Brown
For the Evasion and DP. It's a lot better in PvP for my playstyle.
Honestly anything over 180 AP on a Wizard/Witch is overkill anyhow because of our natural AP bonuses.
Sebastian Lopez
>the only way to progress is through failure Better to learn from others failure then repeating it over and over while expecting something to change other then by blind luck.
Jordan Wright
>ap >cc resist >bad
Angel Carter
ah, fair enough
Austin Young
Yeah i think i'm gonna try a musa, from looking at videos it should be just about what i want. Everyone keeps saying it is great at grind speed too.
Brayden Carter
Yay, new thread! How is everyone doing?
Ayden Reyes
I wish I had the gear to be what my goal is in this game. I just want to be the ultimate glass cannon. Highest AP possible.
Isaac Peterson
When you guys say do the black spirit quests, do you mean the quests underneath the main header or the suggested one?
Gavin Murphy
Just came to a conclusion that the official servers suck ass an I'm moving to Ogre fest
Daniel Nelson
The ones under main.
Sebastian Mitchell
ogrefest servers are easily 10x worse, not considering the fact that they're also dead
Jeremiah Parker
Ok, thank you, and should I do the inventory expansion quests too?
Isaiah Lopez
>private servers for a game that has no monthly fee I will never understand this.
WoW, FF14 I can understand.
But BDO? GW2? MMOs like that, that have no monthly fee?
I do not understand.
Matthew Ross
>new players enhancing accessories retards
David Campbell
Yeah, I do them on all my characters, even if I'm not planning to main them.
David Williams
Free extra inventory is never bad. Most of them are fairly short quests too.
William Robinson
free cash shop currency dufus free games are wayyyyy more expensive than than games with a monthly fee, $15 a month is nothing unless you're a poor brazilian or underaged, to succeed ina free game you need to blow tons of cash or play like fucking years.
Hunter Baker
Wouldn't it be more cost effective to go AP offhand + DP accessories instead of DP offhand + AP accessories?
Isaiah Davis
>play like fucking years
Yeah, and you're wasting those years of gains on a server that has less players than a single channel of this dead game.
Ayden Brown
Very few good alternatives to build evasion on accessories.
Austin Allen
ogrefest gives away full PEN gear, i.e. there's balanced pvp
Hudson Torres
>play ranger >oh how lucky! That one big group with 10+ monsters all together there for me! >start spamming attacks, jumping and shit >monsters keep resetting
Blake Fisher
Because the experience will help towards my end goal as a police officer
Ian Perez
EVASION
Hudson Gomez
>gives away full PEN gear >balanced pvp wat
Bentley Bailey
you're gonna quit eventually, wasting a month in a private server is no big deal
It's a choice, not saying it's optimal, but you literally said "I do not understand", there's a reason to play that, if you don't like it that's a different topic entirely.
Samuel Gutierrez
How do I get my gift package rewards? I bought the game for a friend, and I didn't get shit, where do I choose the bear or the pearls? he is lvl 55 already, and on the refer a friend page I get a 1k loyalties thing, but not the pearls.
Brayden Hall
It takes a couple of days to register, but you get it on the account page where you claimed the other stuff you get with the game. Make sure you friend logs off or changes channels.
Jace Diaz
how fun is sorc awakening?
Jose Bailey
I don't know man, I quit and only play every so often, but those returning player rewards are pretty good for people that only play in bursts.
Matthew Rogers
The same as every other awakening in the game: SHIT. I can't wait for second awakenings to fix this dog shit 3 button game they've made with awakenings.
Thomas Roberts
is there any point in getting evasion if i'm only level 58? or are all the level 60s+ going to hit me anyways
Chase Flores
I think Sorc awakening is pretty fun
Dominic Adams
how well will a 75 dp level 58 wizard with 185 AP do?
Brody Lopez
If you get knockdown you will die.
Nicholas Rivera
I already die from 1 knockdown with 215 dp
David Ortiz
Yeah but he will die from just about any mob he can grind for reasonable exp/drops if he gets knockdown.
Jaxson Roberts
What are the requirements to unlock daily boss scroll quests?
So far I only get Red Nose and Witch, despite having the knowledge for some other bosses. Do I have to wait for the weekly reset or something?
Caleb Russell
don't just spam R when you receive the daily, there are several quests you can accept
Henry Edwards
Do they really? I tried asking them about something similar since the marketplace is 150% dead, and they told me to fuck off
What do you guys do while doing semi-afk things like cooking or fishing?
John Cox
play fun games starcraft 2 and civ 5 recently
Ayden Campbell
I wish I could get into the Civ games, but they're too similar to mobas to me.
Carson Lopez
There's guns in Black Desert Online? When did this happen?!
Noah Murphy
Recently I had to do a lot of processing, and then market babysitting. And during that time I often have a cell phone game running such as kings raid. Or I watch streams on my second monitor, recently I played through tales of berseria and berserk of the hawk, next will be nier. And by then hopefully my boat will be done I have to start grinding again soon.
Luis Taylor
What are you working on?
Josiah Wright
I'm grinding combat levels for my dark knight and it's pretty fun.
Thomas Flores
rifles were in game since release
Nolan Long
a sorc preset this is suffering
Julian Cruz
>Kings Raid Is that any good? browsed a few vids and looks like a generic afk rpg where you have to spend several hundreds on gacha to get anywhere... or blow some cash shop currency to reset dungoen entries when there's some super duper special hero upgrade event.
I just hate stupid time limitations,
Nathaniel Powell
finishing my warrior awakening quests
please kill me, i have to run fucking everywhere and my weapon will be +0 when i finally get it
i'll have to spend like 35mil to get it to DUO
Joshua Reyes
maintaining my sanity after making a very bad decision
Cameron Campbell
How do you manage to get to 56 without saving up enough to buy at least a TRI green awakening?
Elijah Myers
you mean money-wise or experience-wise?
Joshua Reyes
trying to get a kzarka box
Charles Lee
buy it at +15 and get it to TRI on your own
Austin Turner
Both, but ofc i forgot to remember the fact that newbies can easily get to 56 in a few hours on Olvia if they have half a functioning brain.
David Ortiz
tfw lauren boxes and the accessory box on monday will decide if I quit until dk awakening or keep playing
