>What is BDO? Black Desert Online is an Korean MMORPG by Pearl Abyss. It features action-oriented combat, open world PvP territory control, player housing, unlimited levels, life skills, and more.
>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.
>What this general needs is 2 guilds to wardec the shit out of each other constantly. If only we had the population for that.
Game started going downhill with the inclusion of new classes. I remember necromancer was just as cancerous in PvE, nevermind that animists could solo contest keep sieges AND farm spots.
I quit around the end of Atlantis, which was good. Can't say the PvP was better with the transition to new frontiers. I just hope this game's node wars fill that void.
Jeremiah Green
You could start it small. I know there's at least 8 in the EU guild.
Jace Nelson
Yeah NF really changed things but at the time there wasn't really a lot of competition for RvR (except Planetside 1 which I also played). BDO won't fill the void, and TESO certainly didn't either. I'm keeping an eye on Camelot Unchained but the development isn't going well.
Robert Myers
No. Thinking back on it I don't even remember how the whole Shazbot vs. Sanic thing came to be. It was just there one day, and it was pretty short-lived , like Aion itself.[/spolier]
Jacob Gutierrez
That fucking violin emote though, amirite
Who were you in aion?

The faggot who made Sanic.

Oh very dear. My condolences.

any news on striker awakening?
Joshua Gonzalez
Am I blind or is there no character slot option in Pearl shop?
Samuel Morales
It's under functions, and again under loyalties. If you have 13 slots you cannot buy more.
Why would you anyway? Like all Veeky Forums guilds it will kill itself from the inside.

I was going to comment on the increase of twitch viewers watching BDO streams recently.
Shit's weird.
Jacob Nelson
i mean, im not a player, just a lurker and a stream watcher. Im here not b/c summer, but rather in anticipation of the upcomming steam launch. Surely that would raise the population, right?
Brayden Davis
also the BR/spic server is about to go on beta so that probably adds some to it

>tfw don't want to weekend grind to 58 from 0% Should I just casually do my hour a day exp buff and then once Im over ~50% just tryhard it on that weekend at pirates? I only have 140-150-190 I don't think I can grind anywhere else worthwhile right now.
Alexander Ward
Not really. Just a bunch of shitposts and /pol/ infiltrating /bdog/.
Asher Butler
I've been doing Valencia with less AP (142/116). Camps that can be knocked down (bandits especially, cadry, nagas) are easy to wreck with low stats. Pirates are more consistent though. Should just find a main rotation and pop the buff, otherwise do side rotes without.
Austin Gomez
grinding to 58 isn't that bad user.
Nathaniel Butler
I guess I'm mostly procrastinating it because leveling to 57 I'm not sure if I really enjoyed my class so far (Ranger). I know its a good class but I'm not very fluid with the combos like some people I see who swap around from shotgunning and evasive shotting back into their kamisvayle blade combos; so I'm wondering if I should even continue or just play something that fits the style of classes I usually play in other MMOs like a Sorc. If I'm gonna go to 59 on a class I don't want to have to do it twice if that makes sense.
Juan Hernandez
>He's so cool
Alexander Miller
that makes perfect sense user, try out another class or two, getting to 56 is pretty easy, from there it starts to become a real grind and you don't want to invest too much time into something only to find out you regret it
William Morris
I have 4 classes at 56 and one at 57. None of them feel like a good fit.
Hudson Campbell
do you feel the problem lies with the combat mechanics of the game or the classes you play?
Luke Cruz
that smile makes me laugh every time
Brody Reyes
Thank you!
Adrian Ross
Its probably a little bit of both, some classes don't feel very fluid while others just mash the same buttons to clear faster than actually perform cool looking combos; and even as much as that amounts to, Its not like I'm doing anything other than mob clearing so I guess thats the game mechanic there.
I chose ranger after getting bored with musa's left/right clear for a while. Mostly because of this pila ku video youtube.com/watch?v=dANn_pWKwww
You see how fluid his transitions are and the grinding seems..fun, stylish like some DMC level shit. But I can't play it as well as he can so I end up just using Waltz of the Wind over and over to clear instead of performing some actually cool looking stuff. I guess I just hoped that later on I'd be able to do some cool shit but the reality is that I'm just stuck doing boring grinding that doesnt feel rewarding, and its slow because of my gear.
Jeremiah Morgan
That post wasn't for you, Crocuta
Wyatt Clark
I'm not sure who Crocuta is but I'll take that compliment anyways.
:^)
Lucas Edwards
Are you online on EU right now?
Asher Bell
I love the way these characters look. they have such lewd faces how do I make my character look like this?
Dominic Campbell
Kek what a dumb nigga
Kys my man my dude
Brody Brown
How can a face be "lewd"?
Grayson Rogers
I don't know, it just does.
Elijah Walker
hmm, well the grinding and mob clearing will stay the same no matter what you play
and unfortunately the awakenings remove a lot of the combo gameplay from many classes
from the video you posted it looks neat, but kinda slow, i have no idea what gear he's using though, but i've seen Witches tear through the same mobs much faster (admittedly Witches are OP in PvE, along with DK and Wiz)
have your tried Sorc?
is it me? thank you if so, you're cool too Red!
angular face, sensual eyes, pouty mouth
Christian Brooks

Parker King
striker. just find a vid on youtube. no awakening yet but looks interesting. like a non elemental sorcerer
Asher Rivera
>in underwear Uh, sort of? See "LewdTattooSorc" over here I think there are lewd facial expressions but I don't think faces are inherently lewd.
Robert Adams
I will do that
Matthew Edwards
Oh thank god, I hated Sorc's edgy shit. It's a cute boy too.
