Black Desert Main Quest
Greetings Adventurers,
need help on how to proceed with a Main Quest? Do you need a preview to pick a crossroad? Did you spam R, and now you’d like to know what happened in the story? Worry not! On our YouTube Channel, you can find the playthrough of the Main Quest. You can use the Search Function and type the quest title you need help with. Feel free to use the CTRL+F command for the text search. If you have any questions concerning specific quests, don't hesitate to ask!
First, Black Desert offers several types of quests. However, the most important are the so-called Main Quest(s). You can find the list of available Main Quests by pressing O and selecting the tab Main. To find out more about quest types, check [Adventurer's Guide] Quest.
Second, what's the best starting option? Let's see!
1. Where to start after the tutorial?
| Ancient Stone Chamber |
||
| Recommended for New Adventurers |
||
| Awaken near the mysterious ruins and experience the story of Black Desert from the beginning. This option is heavily recommended if you’re a new player, mainly if Black Desert is your first MMORPG. The story will take you to Balenos, Serendia, Calpheon, and Mediah. Sadly, only the story of Balenos has been reworked so far (AKA voice acted). |
||
| Quests number |
Min. 441 - Max. 459 (according to the crossroads you pick) |
|
| Mountain of Eternal Winter |
||
| Recommended for Veteran Adventurers |
||
| Experience a brief flashback recounting the story this far, then awaken in the Mountain of Eternal Winter. A little bit more difficult than the Ancient Stone Chamber start, since this is not a starting region (it has high-level monsters). However, the story is new. |
||
| Quests number | 166 | |
| Land of the Morning Light |
||
| Recommended for Veteran Adventurers |
||
| Experience a brief flashback recounting the story thus far, then awaken in the Land of Morning Light. New story here, too. However, this region has a different PvE system. Also, some of the bosses might represent an obstacle (more than a challenge) if you’re not used to the Black Desert combat system. |
||
| Quests number |
Min. 323 - Max. 329 (according to the crossroads you pick) |
|

Thanks! I thought as well about the playlists. However, the Main Quest is so long that even doing a playlist for each part would take more than 12 links. In the end, I thought that the best option was making a file on Drive with the index of the videos. This way, people can also use the text search function (CTRL+F). Hope this will be helpful enough :')
