I just don't understand why people complain about getting money easier. Every time pearl abyss gives us an option to make the game more bearable, folks get upset. It's hilarious. I guess grinding isn't on a more terrible level. It should take you at least three years to get one PEN piece.

 

That's just sadists advocating for the devs to shut the door behind them. That way their prey may never get a shot of challenging them. Means more players they get to destroy. Maybe to the point of those players quiting the game.

No because you also need to be running A gold loot scroll and a Jscroll or Old Moon Scroll.  These "numbers" people are hitting are because of loot scroll stacking.  Also if you think people are going to be able to grind Hadum Arsha undistrubed you are vastly mistaken.  Arsha Stars end you end up making less money because you spend at least 1/2 the time fighting AND you can't keep your Draughts/elixirs up because every death wipes them, and then you are not running PvE cron/elixirs/draughts/perfumes because you have to PvP.  On Arsha when you grind in a contested area you end up making about 75% of what you can on a regular server.

That would only be due to BDO's weak and unorganized clans.  An organized large clan that put in the effort like other PVP games would have no issue applying their dominance over the area.  It wouldn't be a few selfish solo players running around.  You would run into massive walls of players that without 100+ people you can't even put a dent in them.

 

This is what happened with a European clan that dominated in the past.  Under MUCH harshes conditions.  They actually dominated everyone by a simple ideology of unity and supporting each other.  No member would be caught hunting alone or in a small pack.  Everything they did was in large numbers and everyone was included.

 

No cry babies to reject certain classes or complaining about DPS.  They worked together and destroyed everyone.  Everyone else was scattered and easy targets across the map.

 

BDO is LUCKY the community isn't competent enough to do this.

The areas are not even 200m/h + there's a droprate event atm. Maybe you can make 300m with drop rate event + yellow ls + j scrolls + tent buff + castle buff, but if this is how you calculate profits, you are basically retarded.

Where do you even get 400m/h?

Pretty sure any spot doesn't really go over 200m/h unless you're super lucky on drops... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

Take a look at this, this guy tests literally every spot with the same character. I don't see anything game breaking?

After looking into the Elvia silver per hour spread sheets I can honestly say they are way over inflated.  People are valueing "rare" part of the necklace at 180m along with each other part at 50m when they drop, when in reality each one is not more than 30m because it takes 6 total parts to make 1 necklace worth 180m.  They also counted the cup accessory addons as 10m each when they are only going to end up being worth 4m due to the market being saturated already and the necklace cup is already sitting and massively low in price.  

 

Anyone that claims 400m+ per hour can't do math, 225-250m per hour would be a more accurate assessment, and after the drop rate event is over I would be surprised if it goes over 150m per hour as weapons will no longer drop at a highly inflated rate.

As usual it's highly RNG dependent, but there are some major issues.  Many of the items are luckily not reliant on the market at all.  They are also far less RNG than major drops.  However, the RNG is about things like the weapon drops.  And WHEN you have a weapon drop you are substantially more likely to get another because of your kill speed.

 

If you are killing at this massive speed AND massively inflating your drops including trash loot that is where MAJOR problems start to occur.  It's not the area itself that's so OP, but the LOOT SCROLLS giving so much advantage.

I think they nerfed orcs already. I managed play 1 hour with constant weapon drops and got 230m/h.

 

So if you are not carried with weapon drops your avarage could be around 170m/h which is same as in sycraia or SE. 

 

 

And yes people do exaggerate like crazy. Its mostly kids playing this game so ofc they need grow their peepee.
