Fish Guide

We've revamped the Fish Guide to bring more fun to those adventurers who love fishing.

 

Landing a massive catch that others haven't or catching a rare fish can be a fisher's badge of honor. We hope our adventurers can create their own proud memories while enjoying fishing in Black Desert, so we have prepared this.

With the Fish Guide update, the "Weekly Fishing Contest," where adventurers can compete to see who is the most skilled and lucky fisher, is planned to be opened for adventurers. We hope adventurers will proudly show off their fishing prowess at the contest, and we will provide more details about the event through upcoming event notices.

[Fish Guide UI Changes]
① Now able to search for fish within the Fish Guide.
② Now displays progress for each category: Freshwater, Saltwater, Crustacean, and Other.
③ Improved to allow checking information on fish not yet caught by clicking on each species.
④ Now measures fish size to three decimal places, displaying the adventurer who caught the largest fish of each species along with its size.
⑤ Now displays information on the rank of your fish size compared to the average size of each fish species.
 

 
* Information on fish rarity is displayed according to actual fish grade.
* Added knowledge images for 48 fish species that previously lacked them.
  • Changed the system message displayed when catching fish to show the fish size to third decimal places.

Monster

Dark Rift Bosses were set to reappear at random times within 7 days after being defeated. This meant that even if you defeated multiple Dark Rift Bosses on the same day, their reappearance times varied, making it difficult to predict when they would emerge.
