Sup,
as i mentioned almost half a year ago at [General Gameplay] Garmoths Heart | Black Desert NA/EU/Ozeanien (playblackdesert.com) there is still a huge issue at getting a garmoths heart. And since then, the situation became even more difficult, the preorders almost doubled during this time.
Its an item which has great value, even compared to his alternatives (Karanda Heart, Kutum Heart) because yeah 1 crystal slot got even more value with the new crystals in case of pvp and pve, and for the offhand stamina and hp are also great stats for pvp.
The issue with getting it are
- very low droprate item on a boss that spawns only 3 times a week
- higher geared players that already have 2 or 3 hearts and get another one do not sell it, in case of future content needs
- Garmoth Heart questline is limited to one heart and even that takes way too long for an item this essential because of the nouver scales (yes, there are people who have to work a lot and cant do every single nouver)
Yes, there are multiple events that boost garmoth or nouver scale droprate, but watching the marketplace for half a year now i can tell they dont really change anything, cuz the needs are way greater than the incoming items
here are a few suggestions on how to fix it:
- a greater droprate of the item itself (obviously)
- decrease the amount of nouver scales needed for the questline
- increase the max. price in MP
- make crystallized despairs (or another item) exchangeable for nouver scales or the heart itself or
- make the item craftable with non time-gated items
just to Compare it, it was easier for me to build 724 GS than getting a single gamoth heart KEKW
upvote this if you understand the issue so we have a chance that PA recognizes it too
There where more garmoth hearts sitting in the market before the drop loot change from bosses, and PA also forgot that with the inflation of silver/h there are now even more players who can easily afford garmoths heart, 11h centaurs on certain classes and you have the money to PO one with Season gear.
One of the worst drop rates in the game and the default rewards are horrible too. But we have to do it right?
