Honestly, I’m getting really frustrated at this point. I’ve been stuck for months because I can’t get Vell’s Heart. I’ve had a preorder sitting there forever, and the queue is still hundreds of orders deep. Even with the event running, nothing changes. The number barely moves and it still feels basically impossible to get one.
This item is a core progression piece, and without it my gear score progression is effectively frozen. I can’t move forward to the next grind spots or push my build any further. Being locked out of progression for months because of a single market bottleneck just feels terrible.
At this point the current system clearly isn’t working. Either increase the maximum market price so supply and demand can regulate themselves, or rework how preorders are processed so people who have been waiting for months actually have a chance. Right now it feels like the entire queue is just permanently clogged.
Events that are supposed to help don’t really solve the problem if the marketplace caps prevent the item from actually circulating. It just leads to hundreds of frustrated players stuck in the same situation.
BDO is all about progression and long-term goals, but when one single item can hard-stop your progress for months, it really kills the motivation to keep playing. I love the game, but systems like this make it feel pointless to even try to push further.
Please reconsider how items like Vell’s Heart are handled in the marketplace, because right now the system just doesn’t respect players’ time.
I have seen many quit because of this and nothing is done. They are losing players because they refuse to adress this. even in the past it was hard to aquire but when we got an influx of players its only gotten worse.
I think PA is afraid to touch the rate so people actually do this boss and garmoth but the reality is if the rate was complete poop but still somewhat hard to obtain people would be more likely to go out to these bosses.
ya the events dont do anything and never have.
PA needs to adress this however I dont think they care anymore they have crimson releasing soon. were all just 2nd class citizens to them at this point.

Have some hope - another Patrigio night vendor event is coming up and usually with it Vell's are a deal you can get. Last time this event happened, I went through every one of my character's energy and hit a vell twice - both times, I bought it and sold on the market... I got a profit of like 1 bil back which was worth it... plus I probably helpd someone out by completing their PO. It'll happen again. If I get one, maybe I'll be the one to complete your order and you can finally move up.
But yes, I agree... there could be a better way. There could at least be a questline like for Garmoth heart to complete and get a Vell.
Do you go to vell? Ya that patrigo event I saw it like 4 times. Did you do that? Do you got an order on both heart and concetrate version? Get a khan's for now idk. I mean they hand you like 5 pen blackstars now 2 tri god n shit vell is not that hard a lock out as no pity pen bs when you were legit left behind for months not like this when you got a couple other less good options at least
