The September BDO Monthly issue has just arrived! Grab a copy while it lasts!Contents
September is here, and with it comes that familiar feeling of getting back into a routine! Whether you’re heading back to school, returning to work after a summer break, or simply continuing your usual adventures, we hope you’ve had a chance to enjoy the last days of summer.
As the seasons begin to change, there’s still plenty happening in Black Desert! From fanart and screenshots to helpful guides and everything in between, let’s take a look at what our Adventurers have been up to this month.
So, grab your favorite autumn drink, settle in, and let’s see what September has in store! 🍁☕
Screenshots
A new land means a new journey ahead! ♡
As Darucha puts it, “New land means there is a new journey ahead of us, and the world of Black Desert never disappoints.”
From its impressive castles to its unique landscapes, there’s no shortage of places to explore. Every corner seems to offer something a little different, so why not take a moment to admire the scenery along the way?
Which location in Inner Edania has caught your eye the most, Adventurers?
It looks like Edania has been inspiring our Adventurers in more ways!
Harnos took us on a journey through ancient temples and architecture of Edania, where old stone walls and forgotten places tell stories. There’s something about these mysterious ruins that makes you want to stop and take in every detail.
Sometimes, all it takes is a new place to explore to spark a little creativity.
A castle shrouded in darkness, standing tall against the restless sea…
Something is haunting about this view captured by Garmothrider. With the waves stretching out before the towering walls and the clouds hanging overhead, it feels like a place with more than a few untold stories.
What secrets do you think are hidden beyond those walls?
Looks like our Shai has found herself a new companion!
After spending some time on vacation, she’s back and ready to get to work, and, this time, she’s not alone! Maynnie brings us a fun pairing of Shai and Dark Knight, proving that even the most unexpected duos can make quite the team.
It’s time to save some lives!
What other class combinations would you like to see adventuring together?
Who says Warriors can’t be cute?
Mercuel gives us an adorable take on the Warrior, complete with the Solare outfit and Bern Helmet! This chibi commission was made for their friend Vestment, and we have to say, this little Warrior looks more than ready to charge into battle.
Would you like to see more of your favorite classes in chibi form?
It looks like the chibi family is growing!
EruScarlet is back with another adorable addition to their collection, bringing Deadeye’s brother to life in chibi form! After seeing their takes on Deadeye and Marni, we were wondering when another familiar face would join the crew.
And now, the wait is finally over!
It looks like Irelyth has brought their VTuber model into the world of Black Desert!
For the first time, they’ve drawn their character in a chibi version wearing the Succession Maegu outfit, creating a lovely little crossover between their own character and one of Black Desert’s classes.
We’ll be looking forward to the full render of it! ♡
And after Agent, it's Deadeye's turn to receive some love in the form of fanart.
Eykina brings us this lovely fan art dedicated to our shooting master. From her confident pose to all the little details, this piece certainly captures her gunslinger spirit!
Looks like Deadeye has found another fan!
From the world of Black Desert straight into the sewing room!
Taterz put their quilting skills to the test to create this adorable Papu pillow as a birthday gift for a friend. What started as a first attempt at making a pattern turned into quite the challenge, but we think this little Papu turned out pretty well!
How many of you would give this Papu pillow a spot at home? 🐾
Guides
Seid gegrüßt, Abenteurer!
Looking to get your hands on the Nostos? Our German partner Wakayashi has prepared a complete A–Z guide to help you on your journey!
From the optimal setup, equipment, and buffs to recommended classes, spots, and rotations, this guide covers everything you need to know before heading out to grind.
The big question remains: more Pity Pieces or more Silver? Depending on your goals, Wakayashi breaks down the different rotations and explains how you can choose between pushing for the Nostos faster or earning more Silver along the way.
