>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.

Should I be making steel tools for myself?

If you can just buy them and go on about your life do it. There might be a gap in the tools market, I have noticed supply issues on off hours. I know demand exceeds supply by at least a little bit. However I don't know if sell prices are worth the effort. Never done the math myself.

You should, in order to get lucky steel tools which aren't easy to find on the market.

guys, is it possible to buy the processing costume on the market place? I tried to find it through the search window but somehow it doesn't show up. Can it only be bought with pearls?

Got my first piece of boss gear out of the night vendor today: Tree Spirit Armor. Should I try enchanting it first? I was hoping to do Bhegs first because of the increased accuracy from the enhancement effect, tree doesnt seem to give any added buffs based on enhancing.

No problem with just sitting on it and focusing on my weapons and stuff instead right?

Pearls only
'course not. It's your call

WELL THAT'S JUST FUCKING GREAT NICE P2W GARBAGE GAME

are there any discounts?

Occasionally

Just get a silver embroidered cooks clothes off the marketplace. They're enhancable mind you.

>processing
>cooks clothes
Goodnight /bdog/

If you're gonna spend hundreds/thousands of hours on this game, sack up and put down 30 bucks...is that really so difficult for some people? Honestly how do you justify complaining about shit like this when its not even that expensive. Or get an item in game and get someone to gift you pearls...why do people just immediately give up and throw a tantrum instead of looking for another out?

>HEY GUYZ THIS GAME IS PAY TO PLAY
>OH LULZ IT'S ALSO PAY TO WIN
>OH AND IT HAS AN ADDITIONAL MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION THAT HAS AN EFFECT ON MARKET SALES SO IF YOU DON'T USE IT YOU ARE BASICALLY FUCKED FINANCIALLY IF YOU WANT TO SELL SHIT

anime posters should be hanged

>just buy it poorfag
kys

Gotta spend money to make money

>Babby's first Korean Grindfest

10 dollars or theres dozens of people willing to gift you the game for the polar bear pet. Not pay to win but pay to have a little convenience with your lifeskills, and you can buy that item ingame as well getting 21 days worth of the service for free when you join.

Want to keep trying?

>Not a single hard/sharp in the past 3 days despite doing at least 4 guild gatherings per day
That fucking dry spell.

That's the poorfag mentality, you won't change that. These underage/barely adult people are ok spending 8 hours in front of the marketplace to try to snipe a costume or a value pack. Too dumb to realize that in that time they could have made real money.

god i hate poor people

Low IQ people are far worse.

>Too dumb to realize that in that time they could have made real money.

Cut them some slack. They could be living in eastern europe.

Come back after you stop being a deluded socialist.

Low IQ poor people you mean

no, that's not the point. If I can buy real value ingame with currency then the ingame currency gets diluted and inflation happens. That's like being able to buy power in a game of chess. You play chess for the game, you don't play it with the intention of beating your opponent by using your financial prowess because chess isn't supposed to be a test of wealth.

I'll grind this game for a polar bear

None of the shit in this game that is cash shop only will change that. It is weight and inventory, and some maids. Theyre for marketplace shit and lifeskilling. Play the chess game all you want, no one paying real money on this game will have an advantage on you in a 1v1 situation because they bought shit. This isn't Archage.

Waiting patiently for these to turn into cash shop items

>no one paying real money on this game will have an advantage on you in a 1v1 situation because they bought shit

all these things you listed give you an effective advantage. Processing costume for example with weight limit increase from the cash shop allow you to afk process extremely large chunks of your storage so you can basically just let your PC running in the background even if you are at work or sleeping. That's not an option for anyone that doesn't use the outfit because they have to manually store their materials much sooner.

So what does this mean? It means that the person that spent money can generate more ingame money with minimal effort. More ingame money means more effective enchanting cycles or straight up equipment purchases. And that person will outperform you in PvP and PvE even if they aren't mechanically gifted because it really doesn't matter how bad you are if all your shit one-shots enemies.

>no one paying real money on this game will have an advantage on you in a 1v1 situation because they bought shit.
Weight is absolutely essential to PvP, dunno what game you're playing bud.

Not the guy you're quoting but what the hell did you expect from a korean game? If you want fair PVP and a streamlined progression KR games aren't good.

>backpedaling
ahh the logic of people who wipe their ass with 1 dollar bills

games aren't exempt from criticism just because that behavior is typical within the videogame industry in a specific country.

Holy shit dude you're too far gone, that is a massive jump. You're going to basically say the entire system is unfair because you have the option to drop some cash and make your processing easier? So that guy makes 20m more a day than you and gets his items a little quicker, so you just shouldn't even try? I get the weight thing that is saying but if you think about it like that maybe you should just head back to World of Warcraft or Call of Duty or some shit, your reasoning is astronomically defeatist.

No matter how much or how little you pump into this game, people will be ahead of you because they have been playing for a year and a half since the game came out. Plain and simple. Use that as a fucking excuse if you want to make one so bad.

>statistically guaranteed to get one of these during the event
>it'll get added as a pearl shop item along with Valk's Cry "dropping" from pearl boxes after the event is over
Thanks Black Casino!!!!!!!!!!! Keep up the good work!!!

no you fucking retard, of course you don't compare yourself to people that played MORE than you. You compare yourself to people that play a similar amount.

I don't complain if some no-life autist wrecks the shit out of me in CS:GO. He earned it because he dedicated thousands of hours getting good at the game. But the moment people that play less than you can come out on top by just buying the right outfit or other little "conveniences" it turns into pure p2w.

if they don't want to get completely trashed on steam then they need to reduce cash shop dependency.

They will literally make more money by removing the current cash shop entirely and replacing it with a purely cosmetic skin trading system. CS GO and TF2 make boatloads of money purely from cosmetics without offering people p2w options.

I don't wipe my ass with dollar bills and I'm not backpedalling. I'm just saying that Korean games are most of the times like this. We knew before the NA/EA release that the game was going to be like that because we already had examples from the KR, JP, RU servers. You can criticize the game all you want but you knew what you were getting into and the problems that come from the cash shop, unbalanced classes, RNG progression, desynchs, just to name a few. If you came to BDO (or any KR game desu) expecting good PvP and to be able to keep up with the whales... well you didn't do your research.

what's the best material to produce through processing? It seems that steel has a fairly low time investment/profit ratio because you don't need to process the coal into anything. But Brass seems to have a higher volume/profit ratio. It also seems to sell faster in my experience.

You should just be afk processing everything your workers bring you

good night bdog!

Good morning /bdog/

Sleep well

...

how can I breed you?

as in you

You find a suitable male candidate and lock them up in a room.

This is what investors and publishers don't get about games and virtual dependency.

Supply = Demand is not a good law to base your game around, that will only upset gamers.

Steam is a glaring testament it the success of excellent foresight and wisdom, but also proves how retarded publishers/investors are.

>not even that expensive
This game has the most outrageous prices of anything on the market and I say that as someone who has spent a fair amount.

>he thinks spending 2000$ over the course of a year on a game you really like is much

lMAOing at your life poorfag

kys

yeah, outfits cost up to 30 bucks. Costumes with buffs too important to miss for lifeskillers cost around 20 bucks. Pets which are unavoidable if you actually want to make your money through looting and combat grinding cost around 10 bucks on average.

That's fucking insane. And then there is QoL shit like weight limit increases which is also fairly important for people who craft, gather and process and overall useful for people who get tons of loot through combat. So that's another 15-30 bucks on top of that.

Their prices are highway robbery.

oh and I forgot, the retarded pearl shop system prevents you from just directly buying the shit you want. You usually need to spend more money than the item is actually worth because they don't allow you to buy a specific number of pearls. So you spend additional money just for the privilege of being able to buy the item you wanted.

you know what DOESN'T cost money in this game?

getting succ by lewd slutty tamers

Ive spent close to 400 dollars on Hearthstone since its release. If you want to talk about p2w, those cards are legit necessary to have a fighting chance at ranked play in that game. I've also spent close to that amount on RNG Lootboxes in Tera, and that shit isnt even necessary, I just like gambling. I hate that weight and inventory space is character bound considering I want to swap mains every few months, but nothing I can do to change it man.

These games do not make enough money on initial purchase. Thats just not how they work anymore, especially korean mmos that are ported over here. You like the game? You decide to invest a little into it; or dont, no one is holding a gun to your head. Get over it.

wtf I love f2p now

>just want to sell my fucking fish caught in Velia
>imperial delivery complete
>change to almost every other channel
>same message, literally fuckers all over the beach fishing

Sometimes I really wish NA was dead like the memes said.

Why not fish in other areas or deliver it to other imperial fishers?

Won't that just give me lower trade prices? It's currently 250% in Velia

you're part of the problem

>180% price vs 0% price
Hmmmmmmmmmm

Where is it 180%?

None of the actives, have updated their albums in ages, except pig-chan

Mornin everyone

Good morning! :D

all of those albums are absolutely shit, and you taking them seriously is pretty autistic

I can't believe someone actually jacks off to those retarded poses

>about to open lauren family box
>think to myself "oh boy am I looking forward to more cron stones"
>get 4 cron stones
IT WAS JUST A JOKE YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO ACTUALLY GIVE ME GOD DAMN CRON STONES STOP

What the hell is going on in this image?

Daily life in Calpheon. Things being thrown around by peasants, adventurers chopping wood, melting shards, mixing potions around the bank manager, who is too afraid to move from his spot.

Not sure if my eyes are playing tricks on me, but in the first image it looks like you were shapeshifting into a bat.

user, you need to sober up.

Out of curiosity. Can you try some vivid, bright eye colors?

...

You didn't have to go all out for me, user.
I feel like either of the top 3 would suit you better than the stale blueish-gray eye color you have.

Fucking disgusting creature, I have no idea how you can stand to play as this thing.

Does anyone have tailored Jarette's armor? How many dye options does it have? Can you post a screenshot of it dyed?

How do you look without the sliders?

Morning, Rapey-Chan

>I don't ERP
hhahaha

Easy, it's what I like :3

Probably weird as fuck lol. Or at least weird to me anyway, lel. I'm not into the whole scrawny lets be a skeleton type of build for a woman. I prefer to have the body type that over 70% of women have, pear shaped and then add some actual curves. Then add in my own crazy ideals until I get my crazy alien :P

To be fair, 30 dollars for an outfit is a pretty big ripoff.

I'm tired of laying in bed. I want to get up and do stuff.

You need to calm down. How are farmers getting anything done? Wait. Is that the refugee plague camp behind you? What was going on two minutes before this picture was taken?!

I didn't get a single Cron Stone during the Easter event until the final night. What changed? The user who saved every egg posted, huge mountain of Cron Stones dominating the inventory space. They made some comment about Cron Stones. Cron stones were on the mind. I got cron stones.

There is a superstitious moral there somewhere.

...

>over 70% of women have
link to source?

Didn't you make that same post last thread?

>Use all my flashy attacks
>Drop your frames
>Take advantage
Sounds like a good strat to me

To figure that out, we need to go back in time!

You've told me your plan now.

Next time we fight, just raise your graphics settings for me. It'll be fun, c'mon

I already do.

Nice eyes.

I preferred the gray ones.

Damn

I'mjustgonnagowithallthecolors.

Dropping my (You's) again

Sensei is here.

You can earn 50 coins a day, right?

Yes'um.

*chop chop*

Who's that classy gentleman in the back?

T'is me!

did they ever fix the hair transparency bug in this game?
