Pearl abyss is once more back peddling on statements, and they have declared publicly. 90% chance that they will delete this forum post to silence us.
This is going to reddit as well.

My feedback is this. -- stop back peddling on things you have stated that benefit players.

Does that mean all mounts except for horses will have their skills removed? Or how do you change their skills now? I coupon only works on horses.

Sad to say but it looks like this game is sunsetting.

Pearl Abyss stock price went south over winter and they got desperate, new loot boxes in pearl shop with every update, season server tickets now cost pearls, class balance worse than ever and lacking direction, poorly thought out hardcore server flopped with bad mechanics and only 4 classes to choose from, the list goes on and on and on... gg

Clear to see the people running the game right now do not play this game evidently.

And with the direction Black Desert is heading I'm not suprised they've done this.. 

Remember when we were excited when Pearl Abyss took over from Cashcow... Port Ratt Remembers

All mounts except horses are now supposed to have learned all skills at 100% from the start. No need for coupons for them.

It's a sad thing because the game has so much potential, but whoever is making these choices. -.- Just ruin it. -- now they are putting up a policy change for what you can post on the forum to limit our freedom of speech.

Certain pearl items are redundant / had their usage changed drastically enough that they needed to issue a pearl refund for them. However Pearl Abyss per usual back peddled on it because anything that benefits players is a no-no. They also did it for the good "PR" only to ruin it LOL.

Hmm, probably new mounts. I have old account on MENA server from 2021, this one on EU is new since I decided to play questlines and all zones again. I have an elefant from old days its still lvl 1. I don't remember it having any skills unlocked. Then, even if it does would be strange to have mount leveling without skill progression. That moment when you see levelup notification and hold your breath to see it got nice skill :) Now it wont be exciting.

They had pet growth, I recall feeding them special feed now its gone but special feed is still can be made and sold. You can get quest reward with supplement to make that feed. PA even today. This game is a mess.
