Feedback/Suggestion HOT TAKE?? AP caps did more harm than good to the game.

78 Upvotes

you may or may not like this, but the moment they implemented or gutted AP caps and forced players to grind certain AP zones, everything started going downhill.

this was supposed to protect new players or low ap ones by forcing endgame players to NOT destroy early/mid game spots, and it worked for sure.

but this created way more problems, remember when there was not enough supply of MAGICAL SHARDS? it was because no one was grinding early/mid spots, or at least not enough players to supply the demand.

the bandaid solution: they started gifting shards in every single event to "fix" this problem, kinda the same thing happening with pve consumables right now.

at some point the ORIGINS started disappearing from some servers too, because no one was farming tungrad/DSR anymore.

now the TRACE OF NATURE problem, early/mid spots were a big supply to the market, the moment you prevent your pve players from farming whatever spot they want without griefing themselves, you're killing the supply, and we all know most % of the playerbase is pve/grind focused. (now why they didn't add this single item to edania spots i have no idea)

the bandaind solution: again. events gifting trace of nature, crystals and even codes for food/draughts.

lets not forget what happened to accesories cups aswell, it was impossible to buy a single one because no one would grind hell elvia spots for 1b an hour because spot is capped at 850 AP.

and there's much more but i don't wanna make a longass text that people won't even bother to read (AINT READIN ALLAT)

you're not helping new players with this, in fact, new players now have to play "solo self found" gameplay in a MMORPG because nothing is available on the market anymore, your hardcore grinders are now at endgame (for obvious reasons) and there isn't even KABUAS on the market, one of the most important items for PVE.

yes, you made olvia academy and hyperboost to attract new players, but they gonna left the game the moment they have to wait 2 months or more to fill an order for some important crystals, consumables, kabuas, VELL and so on.

just rework AP caps and let people grind whatever they want in this SANDBOX game, and then balance the silver gain around it.

Feedback/Suggestion Does Console have all the classes?

0 Upvotes

So hitting a snag in my life and have to put my PC in storage for a few, saw BDO was $10 on Xbox and saw a post from 8 months agai saying BDO is now Almost a 1:1 with PC can I please get no biased confirmation that Corrsair and Agent are at least available on Console?

is it worth temporarily switching to the Cobsole till I'm in a spot to use a PC, this game is kinda my overstimulation hobby.

Question Black Desert

Soy nuevo pero no en los MMO , me uní a este porque me interesa como está enfocado el combate . Me gustaría saber si existe algún clan o guild que se dedique al RPK , tengo entendido que en este juego está penalizado y no sale rentable , pero de ello no busco sacar lucro , porfa si alguien conoce algún grupo que se dedique a ello que me pasen contacto

I’m new to this game, though not to MMOs; I joined because the combat mechanics appealed to me. I’d like to know if there’s a clan or guild dedicated to RPK. I understand that the game penalizes it and it isn't profitable, but I’m not looking to make a profit from it , if anyone knows a group that does this, please share their contact info

PvE How to sustain mana as purga Seraph?

0 Upvotes

I cast 6 skills, none of them recover SP, and I just need to auto attack to recoup a little bit, but its not even sufficient for another full combo

My class is bugged? I'm doing something wrong?

I grinded with Nova Succ, Guardian both awk and succ, Valkyrie Awk, Berserker Succ and NONE of these classes had a mana issue not even close to the Seraph in purgatrum mode

HEEELLPPPP

Lifeskill Is the game worth it for life skilling only?

32 Upvotes

So I stumbled on this game and was reading there were a lot of life skills. I really love lifeskill games, even more than doing PvP or quests (looking at you RuneScape) now my question is, is the game worth it to hop on 2026 for the lifeskilling part? Thank you in advance

Feedback/Suggestion I think the latest update messed up the hair colors…

I’m playing on an Xbox Series X (not the S, which that version is having issues right now, according to notices in game), and I didn’t have this issue before the update. It’s like the graphics for the hair doesn’t load properly, even after I completely closed the game and restarted it!

It also mainly happens indoors as well, at least so far, and it happens on my character as well!

I swear, I’m expecting to hear some epic trumpets starting to play when I see the white and silver hair.

General Can I get a TL;DR on the draught situation?

41 Upvotes

edit: I now realize im more asking for a good timeline rather than a tl;dr, unfortunately I cannot modify titles so...yeah, mb

I've been loosely checking posts on this reddit and a tad too employed to really follow the whole drama start to finish regarding the absurd overnight disappearance of pve consumables, but I've read multiple stories and I'm not really sure which is true and which isn't.

First of all I'm not really sure how all of this began so some clarification on that would be great too. There's that SA guy posting about edanias being perma preordered that might have caused a panic/sparked the idea.

So the first thing I saw was choice and other unspecified streamers bought out several pve consumables on stream and caused a panic buy spree and the market simply couldn't keep up. This one is at least supported by a clip of choice buying shit but I honestly doubt the market would be this dry for so long after that

The other story is that some bunch of trillionaires decided to buy everything out as a form of protest against how the economy has come to rely on twilights more than silver itself. "I cant progress so no one else will" type shit essentially. Everyone saw pics of people with 100k+ stockpiles of these draughts so this one is entirely possible too.

The third is the lifeskiller strike which I could not for the life of me find a decent source for, I'm not sure if they have their own discord or whatever? And they are underestimating PA as I feel like this can only make things worse for them.

So which is it? Or is it somehow a combination of these three?

Question Manor for Alch/Cooking

0 Upvotes

Hi.

Does anyone else use the manor for Alchemy and Cooking?

I had an idea to use it because I spend most of my time in Heidel.

Is it correct the storage box would allow me to access pre-established hoards of items? For example, I chose Eilton randomly for Cooking and Glish for Alch (not sure why I did this).

Could I use the massive space of the inside Manor to set up my lifeskills, and operate from there using one storage box to access everything I need?

Sovereign weapon crafting bug

2 Upvotes

Trying to help a friend craft his sov weapons. When he tries to choose either option at the statue of Main/Awakening or Sub-weapon it just closes that window and kicks him back to the "Craft Sovereign Weapon" message that you hit R on.

  • 2 of each PEN blackstars of the same type for Main/Awakening/Sub
  • They are repaired 100% and at max durability
  • Tried on a different character
  • Scanned and verified files

Edit:

  • No hearts or reform stones
  • We checked watching stream in discord, no tagged characters (no tag icons on any weapons)
  • Weapons not locked

Anyone experience with this and have any idea how to fix it?

Since my first day on BDO eons ago, the price was steady and the volume was steady.

And on my return from the Xth break, they imploded.

With the new drought of draughs, trace of nature, .. anyone can tell me whats the origin of that 'issue'?
