New and Improvements
Item
● Separated the [Ninja, Berserker] Narusawa Shoes from the [Ninja, Berserker] Narusawa Armor.
- Added the [Ninja, Berserker] Narusawa Shoes to the outfit boxes that contain [Ninja, Berserker] Narusawa Armor.
* Adventurers who had the [Ninja, Berserker] Narusawa Armor in their possession with receive the [Ninja, Berserker] Narusawa Shoes in their storage in Heidel.
● Changed the different text color for a part of the item descriptions for certain lumbering axe and butcher knife items to match that of other tools.
● Changed the expiration period applied instantly upon purchase from 6 hours to 24 hours for the "Sun's Resolve" outfit.
● Added to Jojo the pet's item description that you can only take out one pet that can loot items from a slightly further distance at a time.
Contents
● Changed the way summoning works with the Ancient Relic Crystal Summon Scroll.
Before | After |
Party leader uses the scroll at the designated location to summon monsters. Party leader gets loot and quest reward. Party members get loot. |
Go to the designated spawn location to interact with the Faded Ancient Relic and use the UI to summon. The party leader puts in the number of scrolls according to the stage the party wishes to attempt. The rest of the party member put in the same number of scrolls. The party leader and members all get their rewards as loot. * The summon scrolls can still be used in the old method! |
* The summon scrolls can still be used in the old method where the party leader just summons the boss.
- The Faded Ancient Relic has up to five different "stages" in which monsters can be summoned. The different amount of scrolls and recommended AP per stage are as follows.
Stage | Required Scrolls | Recommend AP |
1 | 1 each | 150 AP or higher, Co-op |
2 | 2 each | 190 AP or higher, Co-op |
3 | 3 each | 220 AP or higher, Co-op |
4 | 4 each | 240 AP or higher, Co-op |
5 | 5 each | 260 AP or higher, Co-op |
* The difficulty of the boss is determined by the number of scrolls used regardless of the size of your party. In other words, we strongly recommend you bring as many party members as you can.
* Defeat these monsters to obtain additional loot.
- You can adjust the settings for special deals by pressing the cogwheel-shaped icon on the upper left of the party widget.
- Added an icon that allows you to check whether or not the Value Pack buff is active on the area of the screen where you can adjust settings on the upper part of the party widget.
Now, thanks to NA/EU Adventurer feedback, we've decided to allow the Value Pack to apply to Party Special Deal sales. Furthermore, we added an icon to help better identify when the effect is active. With this, we hope more Adventurers will party up to defeat the monsters of Black Desert.
Quest, Knowledge
● Changed the Crossroads quest window to now indicate how many times you've selected a certain quest route.
- Adventurers who've yet to complete a certain Crossroads quest will not see any indicators for that specific quest.
● Changed the NPC for completing The Origin of the Powerful Energy quest and the NPC for accepting the [Awakening] Bree Tree Ruins quest.
Conquest War, Node War
Initially, we set the number of Node War participants to 100 to implement a "war game" style of gameplay for the revamped Node Wars. We hoped to provide guilds that might be a bit outclassed a way to use their numbers tactically against opponents who may have spread themselves too thin by occupying several nodes. However, we saw many concerns for how abrupt the gameplay changes were, and the actual data lent credence to these concerns when we identified that most guilds were participating with less than the intended 100 participants. As a result, we decided to adjust the participant limit to more appropriate numbers that better reflect the current data. (Do note that these limits are not set in stone and may see some adjustments depending on the future flow of the Node Wars.)
As for stat limits, we hoped to create opportunities for more guilds to participate in Node War, but we heard feedback claiming that the limits discouraged Adventurers from progressing and strengthening their characters -- as well as being disadvantageous to guilds that occupied multiple nodes in the current "war games" style. Thus, we've decided to remove the stat limits for now and continue to carefully monitor the ongoing Node Wars.
Lastly, many of you expressed your opinions about the "designated days" of Node Wars. And so, to allow a greater number of Adventurers to participate, we extended the current Node War days from three to five. Furthermore, after receiving feedback that the original days of Sunday to Thursday that was announced on the Global Lab weren't flexible enough for many to join, we settled upon the days of Sunday, and Tuesday to Friday to encourage even more NA/EU Adventurers to jump into the battlefields of Node Wars.
Once again, we would like to thank all our Adventurers who shared their valuable feedback with us. We will continue to do our best to listen to your feedback. Thank you!
