Tacky as fuck. Make names for your characters that differ from your family name AND aren't just the same thing with a typo. But that's just my opinion.

>>154579661

I remember giving this game a chance, for damn I miss my old MMO-days. I tried so hard, but damn you people that play this game have no reason to play it, just go play a single-player game instead.

I tried chatting with people, grouping up for exp. Nobody fucking answered even if I just wrote "hey". Even Skyrim NPC's are more social than the players of this game, and I played a lot. Even at the highest levels people just wanted to play by themselves, mindlessly farming, running back and forth pressing the same buttons. I joined a guild, thought maybe it'd be better. The guild chat consisted of "where should i fish?" "Should I buy this?" etc etc, and some people linking their items. I tried joining another guild, advertised as more social, with a discord channel. Nobody talked, only linked forum posts discussed what item was better etc.

You guys brought the death of MMO's upon yourself. There is literally no reason to play if nobody is going to talk. I remember in WoW, where I could talk to some guy and play with him and his guild for weeks, getting to know them and their lives. I got some real friends and that was amazing, everything felt like an adventure. Now it's just googling "best farming spot" and going there, just running around. Could just use a bot really.

>>154597617
its the fault of the game really. grinding with other people is usually inefficient and there's not much that really requires having more people with you besides ganker protection. you can't work together with other people on life skills because nothing can be traded. i do agree that even if its a mostly solo experience, having background chatter would be nice...

>>154597854
>more exp
>inefficient
what?

>>154597228
Nothing wrong with it, especially if you only plan to play one character. Nobody gives a flying fuck about identifying you through your family name.

>>154598691
>tfw family name is for practically nothing.

>>154597617
I've made plenty of friends through this game and I'm continuing to do so. So you had a bad experience, that sucks, but you don't stand to gain anything from making hyperbolic statements and generalizing the entire playerbase.

>>154597617
I dunno I feel like I've gotten to know people decently well, through Discord for communication, of course not as much as in games with more people and more reasons to interact but it's always a work in progress and depends on the person too if they would've ever opened up anyway no matter the game. It's very highly dependent on the person, not the game. I just had my guildmate lend me money 'cause my salary is late and I needed to pay bills, frankly I'm extremely thankful for that and don't really see a place to complain here. My experience has been very positive, I feel.

Maybe you're just unlucky?

>>154597617
This isn't a BDO issue. It's nearly all MMOs in general these days. Guild chats are dead because everyone has moved to Discord. I've seen it in WoW, TERA, GW2, FFXIV, BDO, Wildstar, BnS... pretty much every major MMO to be released in the past few years. The game is for playing and Discord is for socializing. That is the direction MMOs have taken.

>>154598745
I made my family name the usual nick I use and have separate character names for the characters I play, 'cause they're characters, not self-inserts, created and played by a common person with his nickname playing them. I acknowledge not everyone cares about this but it makes the most sense to me and is important to make the distinction when possible.

How do you set up pictures while doing an emote? I can't seem to do the emote and then quickly ctrl+U.

>>154601432
Set them as macros, you'll find this by opening the chat bar and clicking on the M next to it.

>>154599613
And guild chats killed actual social interaction.

When i started playing mmos people talked to each other in general, played with new people commonly. There was no such thing as a 'pug', every group was a pug, 'guild groups' were a rare exclusive thing usualy treated as a 'guild event' or something.

Then everyone moved into insular guild-centric communities, and the trend of actually talking to the strangers you met in game vanished. Of course from there it was just one more step into sticking to totally out of game communication when playing with your 'group'.

Letting everyone make guilds was a mistake honestly. In my first mmo guilds were very hard to make, there were only a dozen or so total and they were expected to do a lot for the game and community in general and add to the atmosphere and story. You could only make a guild if you had enough people, went through a strict process of having a goal and statement of what your function within the games community would be (if a guild already existed for it you were very likely to be rejected). You then had to operate as a pseudo-guild for months to prove you had the dedication and ability to manage something like that.

Only then could you submit a request to the guild council to become an official guild. The council consisted of a GM and the head of every other guild in the faction you were wanting to make a guild for. If they approved you became an official guild, got official custom designed guild items and a guild hall placed in the actual game world, not some environment.

But in modern games any attention whore with a few friends becomes a self important microcosm that ignores everyone else in the entire game.

>>154598206
because it is. unless you're in sausans with a 80 ap character, its way quicker to just kill shit on your own even in a group. just because you're in a group doesn't mean you're actually doing things together

>>154602385
Did you know that you get more exp from being in a group?

Did you know that this exp bonus gets reduced the further you are from your group?

>>154602616
Neither of those things matter. It's objectively better to have everyone spread out just far enough to benefit from party exp while being able to kill their own little camps of enemies.

Guilds are not supposed to be your friends list.

>>154604334
What do you mean by gold spot? Down towards the coastal cave? I'm still fairly new to BDO.

>>154604453
alright then we have nothing to talk about here.

>>154604697
Do you really not see how guild-centricity made people less open to strangers in mmos?
I watched it happen over 20 years.

People went from hanging out near the place they wanted to group, and inviting/forming parties on the spot at that location, to trying to ask around in guild chat if anyone wanted to do something and then just decide not to if they couldnt get a group togeather. People basically became more antisocial all the while thinking they were being social because they had a small group of players they played all the time with. The lack of people being able to get togeather functional interactions with complete strangers is then what required the wow-style auto-groupers to be invented which is something that facilitated even further the trend of people not really talking at all to each other.

Its a very clear and obvious progression if you lived through it.

>>154604391
I'm not arguing semantics. I refuted one of your points that I took issue with and just because you don't consider grinding in a group as playing with other people doesn't mean you're correct.

If you ever farmed pirates with a group then you'd know that steamrolling 'camps' as a group is more efficient. Same goes for a rotation at sausans.

I'm curious though, what would it take for you to see it as actually playing with other people?

>>154604483
It's down toward the coastal cave but still within the safezone. There should be a bunch of people fishing there around some netting.

>>154605180
My mommy told me not to talk to strangers, and you are creepy.

>>154605180
i liked auto-groupers for awhile. when i was working and going to school and then working even more it was great being able to come home and just play the game, but this is the bitter fruit that casual play wrought...

>>154605376
I'll check it out next time I go back to port, thanks!

>>154605180
I do remember that people used to talk more in general when I was 10 and played Runescape, and nobody rarely ever talks in general now, but it does not bother me. This is not a problem. I enjoy talking to my good friends in my guild, I don't need to look for more friends when I already have some. I don't have time for trying to look for more friends. I'm good.

>>154605376
then someone in the group is playing less than optimally, whether they are undergeared or not using their skills properly. even a maehwa can easily clear mobs in a few seconds and move to the next.

that being said i've totally tried to play together with others, pulling mobs as a warrior to the wizard or ranger to nuke down but i won't deny for a second it was not as efficient as just letting the wizard clear his camp and (try to) clear my own.

randoms however, never want to play together, i've been kicked out of groups for trying to 'kill their mobs' which left me really confused for awhile.

Noob here, why is blue coral ring 500k and mark of shadow 10m when they have the same stats?

>>154606456
MOS gets more AP when enhanced

>>154605902
Playing with strangers and trying to adapt to their playstyles and make the group work is a lot of fun though. Being able to invite a hand full of random people to my group, assess their strengths and weaknesses as players and their characters, and then figure out exactly what we could do to optimally gain the most for our time spent. The perfection of making everything all come together optimally from limitations.

Thats probably also due to my antiquated training i guess. I see people who just want an easy ride and then some sort of identical across the board stats where only 'player skill' matters. I see those people in this very thread. But what do you play for if not optimization? Grinding more efficiently is the goal, so i value the mechanical insight to make that happen with what i have, its so fucking exciting to me to make 5% more exp:hour than some optimal group with my rag tag assortment of 'low tier' classes. Thats true optimization there, the real victory. There is no destination, its about getting nowhere faster than they expected you to.

Remember the opponent is yourself anonymous. Exceed expectations. Theres no victory if you were expected to win.

People who think they are hardcore copying prebuilt forum guides and forming perfect groups. Those are second tier individuals, how was that knowledge gained? Through people always looking for a better way. In this way the self proclaimed 'hardcore' are just poseurs, the truly hardcore may be mistaken as casuals to the untrained eye. The difference is in temperament and intensity. The student learns, the master forgets anonymous.

>>154605403
I kind of like being creepy. You cant trust someone who behaves normally i think, they are obviously pretending.

>>154606149
>then someone in the group is playing less than optimally,
Not an issue. If it's more efficient to play solo then a group isn't going to take a hit from carrying someone like that.

>randoms however, never want to play together
This isn't true, considering I see LFG messages all the time.

>i've been kicked out of groups for trying to 'kill their mobs'
How many times has this happened? I've never experienced this or heard of it happening until now.

PUGs are always going to be a crapshoot though and they're no different in this game than they are in other MMOs, even those with PvE content that requires more actual teamwork.

Literally just started playing.

What does "extremely rare chance" means? Like 1% or have I been turbolucky within my first 5 minutes?

>>154607353
They are pretty rare yeah. There's an event which ends on wednesday that has increased the drop rate of them but they're still rare enough at the moment.

>>154607353
Probably less than 1%. I'd say around .25%. You'll get Sharp and Hard crystals from gathering and Sharp is the rarer one.

>>154607353
those are used to upgrade gear past +15.
With the fact that they are used a lot all the time (and thus a high turnover item), you can look at their price to judge their comparative rarity.

You can grind 3 mil an hour as a relatively fresh level ~52 or so. So that item is rare enough that its worth an hour of straight farming for an entry level player.

As far as actual %, who knows.

>>154607353

You might as well throw that on the market now considering your level and use the funds for a set of decent unupgraded armor and weapons.

>People who think they are hardcore copying prebuilt forum guides and forming perfect groups. Those are second tier individuals, how was that knowledge gained?
So you'd rather invent the wheel over and over again? Making use of others' knowledge and assimilating it into your own is also a skill, it's also how education works.

>I kind of like being creepy. You cant trust someone who behaves normally i think, they are obviously pretending

>>154608458
the key is what you said, assimilating the knowledge into your own. many people just copy whats popular and don't understand the hows and whys. why do you take this weapon? why do you use those crystals? why this specific level of a skill instead of maxing it out? you don't have to reinvent the wheel with every generation but if you don't have a grasp on the basic physics of motion i don't want you driving a car~

>it's also how education works.
Its how modern academia works, which is not a good thing.

Making use of others knowledge does not mean just copying it. If you dont intuitively understand something, you dont actually understand it and wont be able to make the leaps of imagination required for true breakthroughs.

I spend a lot of time reading about the game im currently playing, its very useful. But the common things that everyone already knows are not the things you need to focus on messing with.

Look at how the meta of games evolve, often times there are shifts in trends that dont really revolve around an objective better way or any sort of game change, people just start doing things differently. This can be seen when comparing different regional versions of the same game; the exact same set of mechanics can lead to widely different metas. Part of what makes the current optimal way optimal is that thats how everyone does it, and so they can all understand it. Its the understanding that makes it best, not necessarily the mechanics. "A bad plan followed badly" often works wonderfully when compared to the common alternative of a bunch of people bumbling around in ineptitude. Many times the alternative ways arent as good, but you have to try them to see, and there are practical considerations to take into account as well:
Lets say you are super pro ultimate guy who read all the guides and plays regularly with your super pro ultimate friends. Great. But something changes, what do you do then? Wait for a new guide? Be horribly inefficient? If you knew the second best way, and the third best way, and so on, you will be just fine. Maybe one of those ways is now the best way and you will know it before the majority. Thats where the guides come from in the first place.

Knowing something is useless, a computer can do that for you. Its understanding thats of value.

>Can you hunt down criminals and steal their trees in this game

>Can you sneak and hide from a group of 50 russians trying to kill you for your trade goods
Kind of? You can drop/break trade goods on death, but unless you're slowly carrying them across the country on your back, no one's going to bother you. Even then, people probably won't mess with you.

>Can you just be a peaceful farmer/trader and never do pvp
Absolutely. But people can still randomly flag up for pvp and kill you, though it's pretty rare.
I've only ever had one person randomly flag on me (outside of grind spots) in the 1500 or so hours I've put into this game, despite killing 100's of helpless gatherers and traders myself. But I guess that just means I'm an asshole.

>>154622506
Post waifus when: it's imperative that a picture accompanies your post to illustrate what you're talking about, the thread needs bumping on page 10, someone asks to post waifus. This is not difficult. Now don't feign stupidity just for the sake of being contrarian, I'm sure what I'm saying can't be misunderstood.

I'd ask how to make money through trading and if I'm supposed to end up making more money through boxing my plants than selling them separately on the AH, as right now it seems they sell for much more on the AH than their price as trade items.

So precise customization is a double edged sword.

Fishing and selling the fish to traders instead of processing the fish is pretty good moneymaker.

>>154624191
You make crates out of stuff that you can't shift on the marketplace. None of the lifeskills are efficient money-makers except maybe fishing.

>>154624553
Ahh, I forgot to exclude that from what I meant, I guess I wasn't clear enough. I was just talking about making crates of produce.

>>154624605
Huh, that makes sense. Thanks. Why would somebody grow stuff that doesn't sell on the marketplace, then?

>>154624746
So they don't have to buy it from the marketplace when they need it?

They're used in a lot of cooking recipes which tend to be in more demand than the ingredients themselves. Personally, I like to be self-sufficient in the game.

>>154624829
But they could be making more money if they made something that sells and bought the presumably cheap ingredients that don't sell on the marketplace, right?

It has never been 60% though, ever.

>>154663442
I'm going to track this next item to be 100% sure.

>>154663692
the 30% bonus applies after you collect. say you put up an item for 100 silver, it sells, the taxes are total 35% so you collect 65. with the value pack you still are only collecting 65 but it gives you the 30 back afterwards. check your silver totals and not what the marketboard screen tells you.

gooks cant program, basically.

I am struggling to get interested in playing this. Got it a while ago and I don't know but there's something lacking.

I dunno if it's because the universe so far is absolutely fucking boring (I don't mean exploring it, I mean lore, story, etc), the fact that everything I try to do is locked behind requirements that make me feel like I have to rush to a certain point to enjoy the full game (mostly the crafting / node stuff) or the fact that the combat feels extremely spammy, although that's most definitely because it's low level and rolling face on keyboard suffices.

It is normal if it takes time to "click"? I don't want to know I wasted 30 bucks tbqh.

At least character creation is fun.

>>154676607

I dunno m8, I love MMOs. I spent countless hours playing LOTRO, Ragnarok Online, Runescape, fucking Rift, The Secret World, TERA, GW2 and dozens upon dozens of others. There has to be a reason why I don't get glued to this one the same way I did the others.

I sure hope I'm not getting too old for this shit.

>>154676869
How long have you played this for?

>>154677043

Not very long. A bit more than 10 hours perhaps, but that's the problem. Usually I am sucked in from the start. There's something in the design that's turning me off and I can't put my finger on it.

I know I didn't like feeling rushed by quests from the start, I usually love taking things very slow. I level at a snail pace and take ages getting anywhere because I like to explore, kill monsters, gather stuff, etc. So seeing myself climb 10 levels in 20 minutes kinda weirded me out. I wanted to go and make myself some gear before actually going out but apparently that's locked out behind god's know what?

I tried to do some crafting/cooking but that's also locked and I didn't manage to do more than crush some potatoes because I need a house or something?

>>154676363
yeah mine is just over 200 total.

>>154677632
I can only speak from personal experience but I fucking hated this game at first. I spent the majority of my 7 day trail trying to like it and I got hooked toward the end.

As for gear, there aren't that many sets and since they have no level restriction, you pretty much get what you're going to be using for the entire game as soon as you can and start upgrading it.

For cooking, there's simple cooking that you can do in the processing tab if you press L. For proper cooking you need an appliance that you place in a residence that you can buy for 1cp. When you hit Velia, I recommend doing all the quests you can find there as most are tutorials for the lifeskills in the game and they'll set you up with most of the stuff you need.

It sounds like you have expectations of the game based on the other MMOs you've played but you should just throw those out and either try to enjoy it for what it is or accept the loss and move on.

Keep asking questions though, we all know this game can be overwhelming and obtuse as fuck at the beginning.

So I'm looking to do small scale roaming pvp at endgame, is tamer or kuno a better choice? I started as a maehwa but apparently they are turbopoo.

Which quest?

>>154690959
Neither because there is no pvp like that in Black Desert. Pick ranger/wizard/sorc/warrior like everyone else.

>>154691194
You can't do roaming vs larger groups like in gw2? That kinda sucks.

>>154690959
Just pick the class that makes your dick hardest and you have the most fun playing. PvP battles are determined by gear.

>>154691024
It's the For God's Sake questline leading to Mediah

>>154691737
You can always join a pk guild or take part in t1 node wars. But, sadly there's barely a fight in t2 node wars on Orwen eo mileage may vary

>>154690432
+5 armor or something like that. That's what mine was around there.

>>154691738
true but a geared maehwa is basically a lesser geared anything else.

>>154693867
that looks like fucking shit

>>154695182
No it's cute.

>>154691737
don't play bdo for the pvp or you'll be disappointed

i was in the biggest pvp guild on my server at launch and we're done to a dozen active people

There is too much to learn in this game. I have all these items and no idea what to do with them. Anyone else not know what they're doing?

>>154690871
that doesn't make sense

>>154699960
I have no idea what im doing but somehow i manage to stumble forward.

>>154699960
It takes a couple weeks to get a solid grip on things. I assure you its all very standard and normal once you get used to it. Though occasionally you may have to look something up

are we going to get new underwear?
I hope so!

>>154703834
micro bikinis when?

>>154699960
Basically everything you get in the game until you're level 50 is trash, unless you got it from a login event.

>log onto bdo for the first time in months
>velia port is completely deserted when it had 50+ people before
what the fuck happened? this game died already?

>>154706827
Yes

>>154706827
why would people be in velia port?

any costumes coming in the patch tomorrow?

>>154705640
No.

>>154707562
I hope so.

any server stability coming in the patch tomorrow?

>>154710214
yes.

I wake up next morning to see only 2 ranges of catches instead of 8.

Fidget with the eyes a bit more. They seem slightly dead or doll-like. Maybe add some light eyeshadow. Also, try to match the eyebrow color with the hair.

It's hard with the eyes really. The slightest mistake and she looks like shit. Temporary saves sure but heh. They look a bit more "alive" in some lighting.

As for the eyebrows I tried all the "blondes" and this was the one I liked best, paler was borderline invisible and that's spooky.

>>154714727
Try moving the jowl section up a bit and the cheekbones a couple ticks forward. If you don't like how it looks after, change it back since it only really matters if you're satisfied with it.

>>154713459
Yeah well I set up afk trade packs last night, woke up disconnected, logged in dead at some random goblin cave.

>>154714727
it's because you have no eyeliner or eyeshadow going on.

It's really detrimental if you don't join a guild, huh?

>>154716357
i dunno, i've done ok solo so far, I have similar equipment to my friend who is in a guild on another server

>>154716357
I wouldnt know, but I don't see any downside.

>>154714727
try black eyebrows, trust

>right after i pick my character and it loads, automatically get booted and [disconnected from server]

Fuck, do I really gotta reinstall?

I really want the makeup extremely subtle.

>>154717169
any more of these lmao

what vg guild do i join are there actually any
was buying this game a mistake? general seems dead

>>154717306
dont join sardine, they are some troll guild

So is the community and content support holding up? Friend gave me his account.

Anything to know about each server?

>>154717193
As it should be, but the eyeliner at least while needing to be subtle still needs to be visible.

>>154717581
game dying
devs and publishers constantly lying and making changs they said they wouldnt
community either sucks thier dick or opposes them entirely, no middle ground

either way they dont listen and just so whatever gets them more money, only server worth playing on is edan btw

>>154717306
Join Sardine. They're good guys and wont hassle you or anything.

How does the item reform system work? Will it erase +s on the item?

>>154717581
1. It's not.
2. Edan is the alive server on NA. Orwen is dying and Uno is dead.

>>154718106
No it's the same as before when the workers made them except you don't need to wait 20mins for a try.
