First for stalkers have the most fun

I've been trying to get character name approval for 25 minutes now. Is there a trick to it or is every possible name already taken as it seems?

>>163857217

Show us some sample names that you've tried to use but were already taken.

Rias
Saber

And a bunch more. None of these worked and they're all pretty unique.

man I'm so desperate to get panties for my characters, and this game allows pretty much 0 ways of trading ffs

Most I can think of is spending my loyalties on megaphones and broadcasting something someone needs several times or whatever. I'm never fancy lacey panties on my witch.

>>163868191

Oh, well dang then. I hope someone else is given a surprise!

How dead is this game? The last second switch from f2p seems like a bad idea. Figured I'd check how it played out.

>>163869008
it's too alive imo
grindspots are always full with shitters and there are so many people in towns that your fps will drop below 20 on high end rigs

>>163869008
far from dead, try to win anything in the market... is near impossible, go to any channel, all grind spots are taken, do world bosses they always have enough people to make you lag

If the game isn't alive then I don't know what it is... the sales have been bringing a steady influx of new blood, but vets quit left and right so it balances out.

Will look into it!

Just started playing yesterday. What are the chances of me getting one of those fancy winged costumes before they go away? I hear they're limited.

>>163874248
you have a 100% chance of getting one if you pay for it

How many "warning points" do you have on the official forums, if you use them at all.
I have three I got all at once.
Also, what is the point of them?

>>163874248
Not very likely. Been trying for the sorc one since the first day and still haven't gotten it.

can you buy appearance coupons off the market in this game?

Daily reminder that you will never be 'Cyclegreen', the biggest memelord in /bdog/, /pol/ and the BDO forums.

>>163876097
buy a value pack instead

>I've been outbid on the premium Sylvia outfit 5 times in a row.

What the fuck why can't they ban the botting assholes.

>>163877641
that's not how the system works, buddy
it's more like a lottery, you just keeping pulling the wrong number

>>163870268
pls assist

>>163878017
I don't get these bids though. Everyone is forced to bid the same amount as it says, and then the game just RNG's who gets it?

>>163877641
>5 times
kek come back after 50 fails

>>163878303
yes. everyone bids the same amount
then some magical wheel of fortune is spun, and whoever's name it lands on is able to buy the item

>>163862207
>unique
I'd post gore in your honor, that's how bad this is.

>>163878385
But I've noticed after constant refreshing it says "Buy" and then "Item has already been sold" or I get "Failed bidding".

>>163878528
it's the same shit, it's a korean game with poor translations and implementation, and no they're not doing anything about it we're fucked

>>163878528
just means you lost

>>163878528
Previously, you had to type in a captcha to buy anything off the marketplace. I haven't had to enter it at all since coming back, so I am guessing they got rid of it.

There was a chance no one would win the bid on the item, so then it would go "free for all" and whoever could click buy and type in the captcha fast enough would be the one able to purchase it.

Cyclegreen's delusion strikes again

>>163878528
If you lose in the bid you get "Failed to purchase the item" or if someone's ping was higher to check the purchase and he got it already before you even checked your bidding you'll get "Item has already been sold."

If it didn't get sold in the bid phase it'll go free for all and the lowest ping with the fastest response to m1 -> enter gets it, in which case you'll also get "Item has already been sold." This also means some people might macro that and you might never have had a chance at all, or they just come out on top because of their lower ping instead of being able to type the captcha faster than you, at which you might have excelled and won the item in the past.

>>163879435
should I be spamming refresh during the "counting" phase?

>>163879435
I wasn't being an asshole intentionally, I was pretending to mock someone and they interpreted as real harassment despite the obvious sarcasm in my opinion.

>>163879435
Now there's a familiar name.

>>163868140
idk i like the epheria marine fishnet stockings.

>>163869892

life sucks.

>>163868309
The stockings on most are fine, it's the bras and lace that all look silly.

>>163871259
Spear is fun, but there are no Pris up on the market to snag and no green duos either. Too poor for this game.

>>163880003
Nah, you don't need to, you've got 20 seconds to check your bid to see if you won or not. If you're waiting for the bid phase to end you should never refresh as it actually hinders you. So, just don't refresh at all.

>>163880343
Mm, sarcasm or just a pranks bro aren't always that obvious in text, I most likely don't get at least 50% of it directed at me and think the person allegedly being sarcastic is trying to start something. Pepper it with winky smilies or equivalent softening measures if you have to be sarcastic and you've got face to lose.

>>163881438
Yeah they are. Glad there's a way to remove the bras while keeping the panties on.

I hit level 54 and I just spent 30 minutes of 200% EXP at Susan's. I only got 40%. I thought the grind wasn't supposed to start until after Awakening?

>>163885905
The grind gets exponentially worse after each level over 55.

At least I was having so much fun I didn't even notice the 30 minutes were gone, but damn.

Progress is still progress. As long as you're not losing stuff then it's fine.

started a 7 day trial last night and I'm liking this a lot. feels a little rough around the edges at times but there seems to be a lot to the game.

Is there a monthly fee? Sorry for the dumb question but it's not made obvious

>>163887541
there is no monthly fee

>>163887541
no
the only monthly "fee" is getting a value pack from the marketplace and that's barely 10m in silver coins
the problem is, unelss you're one lucky motherfucker you ain't getting one

>>163889164
>>163889184
Cool, definitely gonna get this before the sale ends.

>>163889184
value packs aren't hard to get, like sure you won't get it on your first try, but they're pretty common you can easily get one in three days casually bidding, unlike pets...

>>163890213
>I got a pet and a value pack yesterday without bidding

Pretty good haul post christmas.

New to the game. Struggling to decide between Witch and Berserker. I enjoy both, but I want to go with whatever one has a more central role in PvP while being fun/not quite as repetitive.

Anyone have any opinions? Curious which you guys consider a little more fun

>>163890432
I got 2 kibs A yesterday and one on saturday... I'm not complaining, but fuck I really need a god damn pet

>>163889184
Get a maid and you'll never have problems getting value packs

>>163890638
I have an alt right next to the marketplace and calpheon paz's are on ramdisk, I can switch in 18 seconds
I'm hellbent on spending nothing on the game

>>163890579
Berserker eliminates people. But I don't play him, so can't say anything about his play.

That's not Raita enough to be called torpedo tits

So, when you're making a witch, the gear she has on is all blue and wizardy. Does anyone know if that's a costume? Cause i really want it, it's great.

Do Berserkers want more ranged, magic or melee reduction

>>163894561
don't bother with those stats, just get more dp

>>163894252
Check the pearl shop retard

>>163894252
It's a cash shop costume. You probably won't find other players selling it very often anymore because it's not very showy and because their new awakening costume just came out last week.

>>163893764
It's subjective, personally I think all tits without slider mods are disappointingly small and tits the size of heads are just "small."

>>163885182
Maehwa probably has the biggest without mods but if you care at all about other things than tits too ranger's are insignificantly smaller (I can't really tell the difference) but she's got a much lewder rest of the body. And thigh jiggle.

>>163897491
Apparently, yes.

>>163899019
Ranger's boobs look fake though and the shape is completely retarded at the biggest size

So I am a level 56 maewha, which boss scroll should I start farming and where? Also which armor set should I go for?

>>163899296
Real or fake, breasts are breasts, and breasts are the best. In my opinion. They just look like they're inside a bra, anyway, while sorc bodies have sag to them and weirdly (not sure I don't study irl breasts a lot) high nipple placement.

>>163899713
Bheg, hebe/muskan, OP

>>163899713
>>163899865
Well bheg/giath for dailies since you don't have any boss armor but just start with bheg, it's more important.

>They just look like they're inside a bra, anyway
But that's the problem

Is there anything like that? I didn't really see any 'normal' clothes in the cash shop, and from what I've seen its either rags or straight up armor for warriors

>>163901520
The closest thing you get to "Normal Clothes" is the craftable Serendia Iron Suit costume from Costume Mills, it looks like blacksmithing clothes.

>>163901520
there are costume mills in game that you can have workers craft at, with some suits and noble outfits and stuff. Not sure if one of those might be what you're looking for

Did they change the way you collect silver form the marketplace? I don't see a 'my items' button from the marketplace director to collect or cancel my registered items.

Also the furniture I've placed in my residence is taking up inventory slots in my storage, is this a new 'feature'?

>>163904564

I've seen 3 different people with a variation of Rias alone.

god dammit I didn't want this game to be so addicting.

is the explorers back worth it? that horse flute and mount sounds nice.

>>163908559
Horse flute is great, but you can get it for $15 ingame
The horse is terrible

>>163908627
Better than my black donkey named blackie though?

>>163908627
Worth it as long as it's on sale, only a retard would pay $50 for that pack

>>163908807
Just buy a horse off the horse market it'll be better

Well yeah it's $24 right now

I managed to get 4, maybe could have gotten 5 but I don't really give a shit about tamer/maewa/kuno so I didn't bid on those until I had the ones I did care about.

The real problem is getting the male kibs, I don't understand sellers, they get the exact same amount of money for selling them, anything pearl related sells inmediately anyways. If I had the dosh I'd probably have bought the zerker one since it's so rare to see it on the market.

Now I have 4 sexy sluts with wings but default underwear, fuck me in the ass senpai.

>>163910857
Yeah kill yourself. I literally just wanted one for a character I actually play

>>163911232
Did you reaaaally try to get it? I mean I been bidding on literally everything since they stupid outfits were placed on the store. I'll admit I was surprised when i got the last one, my only trick was literally not skipping a single notice, I would stop whatever I was doing and bid.

I'm guessing they'll be up again for valentine's because of "cupid" and what not, just be patient anonymous.

also I'm not sure if this another outfit or a mod, but maybe they'll release better looking wings

I can't tell if this is a quality game or not yet but it's charming. It looks good but shitty at the same time. The combat is fun but mindless.

The horrid render distance of foliage triggers my autism so much. Is not there any tweak possible? I even feel nauseous from that. It's almost as if everyone playing this game lives in theirs moms basement and plays on a potato masher, so they won't notice it either way.

>>163911614
That's literally the Valk awakening armor combined with Kibelius
Good idea but I prefer going topless

>>163911739
>Do enemies get harder or less retarded at some point?

when you start nearing level 50 and if you don't have good gear, which you won't have for some time as a new player

i know shit looks stupid easy and boring at the time, but this is the only game where i can truly enjoy pve, and i generally fucking hate pve in mmos

>>163911779
high end mode reduces pop up a lot, I mean you still get model pop up if you're staring forward but the inmediate crazy pop up gets reduced a lot, as well as your frames...

There's a few optimization guides and tweaks that can probably help with it, but mostly people are too lazy and just learn to live with it. I think Koreans have a better client as well, they seem to have much better frames and less pop up.

>>163911849
>when you start nearing level 50 and if you don't have good gear, which you won't have for some time as a new player

friend of mine started at the beginning of this welcome back period
he has been forcefed money by the game, has a full set of PRI armor/weapon/offhand and still sitting on about 47mil

he has outgeared me and will likely outlevel me since he has access to the Olvia servers for a few more weeks

This game is much more new player friendly than it is to vets.

>I will never get the Aegis or Sylvia outfit

>>163912043

>crying about common as fuck shit
you'll get it, honestly I'm surprised people that want it don't have it already

>>163911920
High end mode seem to do literally nothing for me (other than devour my frames) I tried forcing pre-rendered frames and nothing changed even. On top of that I have the game on a high end SSD and 8GB of VRAM, so this kind of render distance unacceptable.

I tried editing .ini files but the render distance seems to cap at 24 or whatever that is supposed to mean.

>>163912174
>Crying

Nice projecting

>>163912250

Combat is certainly satisfying. I've only tried witch so far but the way you're able cast spells is pretty amazing compared to what else is out there.

This is like the anime air dasher of MMORPGs

>>163912310
@o@ you must be sorely mistaken my friend <@:p)

>>163912168
I have no idea but I was pretty disgusted at how quickly he got geared in comparison.
he got some gold ancient core whatever belt from a box today that is part of a set of 2 that is apparently really good.

meanwhile, i got my first witch's earring whoohoo.
I feel like I got gypped since I logged on Nov 29th to make sure I'd get put on the right server.

>>163912043
considering this

i've not even reached level 56 on my first char so desu i'm not even that far into the game (if we exclude the huge amount of time i've been afk in the game to level the character's stamina with auto looping)

would it be a good idea to just get a new account so i can gain access to all these benefits?

>>163912514
Penguin pet alone is worth more than what new players get

>>163912514
I'm not sure if it was a special "welcome back" sort of event due to the update at the end of november, or if this is something that applies to all new accounts made / people who havent logged in 30days from now until forever

I just came back myself the beginning of the month, but since I logged on before the update to choose server I didn't qualify for the "been gone from the game for 30 days" free shit

Hopefully someone more knowledgeable than I on the subject will jump in here

>>163912671
>Penguin pet alone is worth more than what new players get

so a pet i can buy for 10 bucks is worth more than what >>163912043 said?

>>163912792
Yeah it's cute

>>163912709
to be honest i think the access to olivia channels alone is worth it

i found the event details: http://forum.blackdesertonline.com/index.php?/topic/121831-new-world-event-series/

unfortunately, as these events are until the 11th of jan, i won't be able to claim everything from them

RNG is RNG

>>163885905
People lie, or they forget. 54-56 is a nightmare. It gets increasingly worse but they like to try to compare it to like 50-53 and it's nowhere near as quick as those. 55-56 alone takes like 6 hours of grinding at Sausans, and it can be even rougher because that place is literal cancer.

>>163918118
Not always, like that Witch costume I sniped after bid phase.

>>163918123
What's so bad about Sausans? I've only done grinding there for an hour or two, but they've been pretty comfy.

50-53 didn't take any time at all. I was able to do 50-53 in 30 minutes last weekend. 53-54 took 30 minutes alone. Now 30 minutes at 54 got me 40%. I only do the 30 minutes of grinding with that daily grinding 200% buff.

>>163918247
>What's so bad about Sausans?
>Grinding main rotation with a full group for a couple hours
>Another group comes in and starts killing in the rotation
>LUL WE HERE NOW BITCHES

Cancer.

>>163918296
Oh, I don't even know what the main rotation is, and I was just solo grinding. I didn't even seen another person.

>>163918296
>not flagging on them and killing them so they lose 1% exp

>>163918485
I only ever go there to finish the awakening grind.

If my characters grinding there were capable of killing them, I wouldn't be there in the first place.

>>163912792
Go to the shop and see how much the penguin costs. And compare their skill to other pet's.

>>163918485
uh anon, have you played in the past 8 months?

>>163918485
They ain't gonna lose 1% xp as that requires a pve kill and ain't nobody gonna die to sausans no matter how you orchestrate it

I'm very autistic, how important is it to group up in BDO? Can i just run around and do whatever alone? Or will i miss out on half the game doing that?

pls respond

>>163918485
They lose nothing, you lose Karma, and they'll just be more determined to disrupt you as much as they can to bait you into karma bombing even more. If you fall for it, you go negative and can start losing enhancements on your gear.

>>163919374
Easily doable.

>>163919374
It's better to solo grind than to group with very few exceptions.

is christmas finally over? i'm so fucking sick of the shitty snow

>>163919560
Santa is getting removed for certain. Hopefully the shitty performance-killing snow goes with him.

>>163919476
>>163919449

Nice, guess i'll buy it. Am i missing out on anything important if i just buy the 5 bucks version of the game?

>>163919726
>>163919560
I like snow though. Maybe you should upgrade your toasters?

>>163919780
Not really, I went with the basic pack myself.

You get like a horse whistle and a pet and some other junk if you go for the premium pack but it's nothing that big imo.

>>163919796
>fucks with lighting

>>163919796
Yeah me too, I still need a Santa hat and shit as well.

>>163918123
>54-56 is a nightmare

an over exaggeration, especially considering the multiple xp scrolls you get while leveling and the daily grinding hour 200% exp bonus

i play 7-8 hours a week and i'm already at 55 45%, and i'm not even grinding all the time. i spend a good 40% of my active time in game just fucking around

>>163912194
High end mode removes the near LoD and drops environment pop-in by quite a bit.

Your video card and SSD do jack shit. The engine is the issue and unless the company they contracted to optimize it achieves something it's never going to be fixed.

All korean mmos are optimization disasters.

>>163912168
Quite a lot in raw gold, but new players only get 21 days of extra things, some of which are gold bars to the tune of ~30m or so. By the end the most important things I'll get out of the noob only daily attendance I'll get are penguin pet, panties, and ~3 pri+ upgrade rocks for weapon/armor.

While you do get a decent boost as a noob I'm not seeing how somebody could afford to buy up straight pri for every slot. I certainly haven't gotten 400m+ out of the catch up systems and I found quite a few witch earrings 5 etc just playing to 56.

I have found it a waste of money trying to upgrade my own items to 15-pri and just gave up on that and sold my enchant rocks after the price rebounded some from the drop rate event everyone got.

>>163921884

Meh, I like Kutum better anyways. Less AP, but more dmg.

I would kill for the Aegis or Sylvia outfit. But no, the marketplace is a bizarre system of RNG, and not of who actually bids higher than the other.

I'm a kinda new player and I really want a fishing boat because every spot seems to be fished completely dry.

The guides all seem like it takes forever, are they even profitable, or am I just better off grinding out fishing to get better rods and trying to find some spot in buttfuck nowhere that I can bring a wagon to?

>>163928017

>>163928920
Yeah sure swimming gets you there and back faster than a boat does, but bringing a boat, and your horse along with it means you can just stay there and stack up all the bandanas on the horse and all the coins and bars on the boat and pretty much stay there indefinitely and stack shit up.

>>163928920
that sounds like what a stupid person would do. Good luck managing drops for extended periods.

>>163928017
>Why is the system set up to allow the non .001%ers with billions in passive income from obtaining everything with no chance for anyone else to ever obtain anything?
It's almost like the company wants users to stay and spend more shekels.

which class allows you to clear higher content with less AP?

say at like the 130-150 range

>>163930281
Your favorite

>>163930281
Warrior clears really well relative to AP. At least post-awakening.
shouldn't really pick based on that, though

>>163930281
Musa is broken.

Go with that, fucking spin to win is real son.

Does maintenance for this game often run over time?

>>163930881
Every other week on average, maybe more often.

>>163930881
The maintenance time itself is retarded. I doubt it will cost them much to find someone to do that shit overnight.

>>163930975
But it is overnight anon unless you are a nobody eurocuck.

>>163930975
Keep in mind some people might like playing at night. No matter what time it is, someone will be inconvenienced.

>>163930881

>>163931791
You only form a party at the large grind spots to kill shit faster and fight against ganks.

Daily reminder that you will never be Cyclegreen.

Unless you are Cyclegreen. If you are, kill yourself you /pol/ack cucklord memester.

daily reminder EU sardine is a guild based around bullying anyone who posts their character. Even people in their own guild, prime example, one member shitposting about the leader, the deleting the screenshot but keeping the post and then not owning up to it when called out, and instead opting for a retarded excuse like "double false flagging" and instead of the leader kicking them for causing drama, they gave them guild leader, and it ended up killing the guild

I still can't figure out if I want the headpiece visible or not. Having it on or off, both look good imo. I'll stop avatarfagging now though and return to playing Mountain Blade!

It's dofflin's guild, he's an ex-NFA officer
Obese ranger and "template" witch are in it too

>>163942408
So basically it's a guild for misfits? Should just call themselves the Morlocks.

>>163942886
Don't be rude, anon.
I'm sure they're nice people.

>>163942408
hm, I didn't expect anyone here to know about Valor or the guilds in general that well

>>163943387
I've been around for a long time, watching everything happen from the side lines
both in threads and in-game.

>>163942965
They are all a bit autistic but you cant deny obese ranger runs the threads pretty well

does wearing a costume weapon (weapon durability consumption 10% decrease) affect the durability of a fishing rod?

>>163945424
you can't wear one with a rod

What type of bow do I want for my ranger? Yuria? Liverto? Baratos or whatever its called

>>163945537
liverto or kzarka
yuria if you're poor
just like every other class

This game is a lot better than I originally gave it credit for.

why is fishing so fucking op

>>163945610
I thought Liverto became a meme since some new ones arrived?

>>163945962
you're thinking of kutum and nouver

>>163945962
stop right there dude you know nothing of this game
