Events Mar 24, 2021, 15:00 (UTC) The Ancient Kyve

 

 

There’s been sightings of Sage’s Ancient Kyve around the world of Black Desert. It’s said that interacting with this mysterious object grants you a +300% Skill EXP buff.

 

And it seems that Sage holds the secrets to unlock its true potential...

 

 

The Ancient Kyve

Event Period

③ With the Sage class, you can power up the [Disassembled] Ancient Kyve into the [Rumbling] Ancient Kyve to receive a stronger buff.

Tip! If you’re playing the Sage class, try interacting (R) with the [Disassembled] Ancient Kyve and selecting the “Extend your hand onto the Kyve.” option.

 

④ Interact (R) with the powered up [Rumbling] Ancient Kyve and select "Approach the Kyve." to receive a Combat EXP +100% and Skill EXP +300% buff.

- This buff has a duration of 180 minutes, but the [Rumbling] Ancient Kyve will disappear 30 minutes after it first appears. Additionally, interacting with the Ancient Kyve will refresh the buff, removing any similar buffs (Mysterious Knight, [Disassembled] Ancient Kyve, etc.) in the process.

Details Regarding the Ancient Kyve’s Buff

 

 

① Only the event buff from the most recent interaction with the Ancient Kyve will apply, and all similar buffs will disappear. For example, if you have an active buff from interacting with the [Rumbling] Ancient Kyve and you interact with the [Disassembled] Ancient Kyve, then the [Rumbling] Ancient Kyve’s buff will disappear and the [Disassembled] Ancient Kyve’s buff will newly apply.

 

② Any past similar event buffs (Mysterious, Knight, Ynix’s Flame, Sandstorm) that are active will disappear if you receive the Ancient Kyve’s buff by interacting with it.

 

③ If you receive the exact same event buff while it is already active, the buff’s duration will be refreshed.

E.g.) If you re-acquire the same buff with 50 minutes remaining, then the duration time will be refreshed to 180 minutes.

* The three details mentioned above applies to all similar event buffs.
(Mysterious, Knight, Ynix’s Flame, Sandstorm)

* The event buff is the same buff as the one from the Mysterious Knight, Ynix’s Flame, and Sandstorm.
