Updates Nov 9, 2022, 10:00 (UTC) Patch Notes - November 9, 2022

 

Greetings Adventurers,


Here are the latest update details for Black Desert Online on November 9, 2022 (Wed). Today’s patch contains 118 updates and is approximately 1.10 GB.

 

Agris Fever for Gathering

You can now use Agris Fever Points for Gathering, so toggle on this function to gather more materials than before! However, just as Agris Fever only applied to common (gray) loot, its effects will now be only applied to basic resources (single processed such as tree and ore types) and not rare resources like Black Crystal Shards or special resources like Truffle Mushrooms.
 
Originally Agris Fever was designed to help adventurers with barely an hour of time to play per day to reap the maximum amount of "fruit" from their in-game labors. While it was difficult to apply Agris Fever's effects to all Life Skills, we deemed Gathering, the basis to all Life Skills, worth benefiting from its effects. We hope this update will be a meaningful quality-of-life improvement to all of our Life-skilling adventurers out there.
 
  • Applied effects of Agris Fever to Gathering with the following Life Skill tools.
    • When gathering with Agris Fever toggled on, you will consume the following points per attempt.
Life Skill Tool (Gatherable Resource) Agris Fever Consumed
Pickaxe (Ores and Rough Metals) 42 points
Fluid Collector (Bloods and Sap) 34 points (blood)
30 points (sap)
Butcher Knife (Meats) 34 points
Hoe (Herbs, Flowers, Mushrooms, etc.) 22 points
Tanning Knife (Hides, Furs, and Feathers) 22 points
Lumbering Axe (Timber) 22 points
eg. After completing up to the Book of Margahan Vol. 1 Chapter 5, you will benefit from an Item Drop Amount +150% boost when Agris Fever is toggled on. If you attempt to gather Lion Meat, the following effects can be applied.
1. Basic gathered amount: 2 to 4
2. With Agris Fever effects applied (Item Drop Amount +150%): 5 to 10
3. With at least 2,000 Gathering Mastery (Basic Resources Quantity +400%): 10 to 20
4. With at least 2,000 Gathering Mastery (Basic Resources Quantity +400%) and Agris Fever effects applied (Item Drop Amount +150%): 13 to 26

Solare Hall of Fame

We've added a hall of fame to honor the greatest warriors ever to grace the Arena of Solare. You will find it right at the entrance to the Battle Arena, where you'll find the likenesses of 24 adventurers who ranked no. 1 per class in the past season of Solare. Adventurers who interact with these likenesses will be granted the "Blessing of a Great Knight" buff as well. We've prepared this hall of fame to celebrate those adventurers who displayed phenomenal talent and skill in the arena, and we hope this meaningful installment will have other adventurers take part in the reverie as well as feel motivated to challenge the next season of Arena of Solare themselves.
 
In addition, this hall of fame will be managed by season, just like the Arena of Solare. The adventurers currently on display will remain until the end of the next season when new heroes have been made. With many of our adventurers anticipating the next season, we want to announce that season 2 of Arena of Solare will be coming this winter, improved and renewed. Thank you.
  • Installed the Solare Hall of Fame at the Battle Arena.
    • The adventurers finishing in the top of their class in the Arena of Solare will now have their likenesses displayed as statues in the hall of flame.
    • These "Solare Knight" statues will be displayed in the order the classes were released, and you can interact and exchange 20 Energy with them to gain the "Blessing of a Great Knight" buff.
    • This boon will grant you Breathing EXP +10% for 10 hours.
* Similar to the God of Fishing display, the Solare Knight statues will reflect the customizations of each adventurer. However, outfits and Family names will not be regularly updated.
 
 
 
 
 
 

Atoraxxion: Yolunakea Preceding Quest

The third area of Atoraxxion will soon open for Adventurers. In preparation for that, we've added a preceding quest for Adventurers preparing to embark on their journey to Yolunakea. The preceding quest will summarize the events that previously unfolded in the main quests of Vahmalkea, Sycrakea, Mountain of Eternal Winter, and offer glimpse into the story that will unfold in Yolunakea. Also, adventurers will earn a special reward for completing the preceding quest which can be exchanged for special items such as Vaha's Dawn when Adventurers complete all of the Yolunakea main quests and update content.
  • The Secret Guards have returned to the Valley Lily Inn to continue their expedition in "Atoraxxion: Yolunakea," the third biome of the fortress to defeat the Dark Invaders.
    • The Secret Guards have gathered once more at the inn to continue into the third biome. Adventurers will be able to take on the quest that precedes Atoraxxion: Yolunakea at the Valley Lily Inn.
      • You will need to have completed the main questlines of Atoraxxion: Vahmalkea and Sycrakea to accept this preceding quest. After that, you can start the preceding quest by accepting [Atoraxxion] Ruined Plans from the Black Spirit.
      • This quest preceding Atoraxxion: Yolunakea will connect to the Yolunakea's main questline, which will become available once Atoraxxion: Yolunakea is released.
* The "Special Letter of the Secret Guards" you will obtain from completing this preceding quest can be exchanged with a special reward after Atoraxxion: Yolunakea is released and you've completed the corresponding main questline.

New Additions and Improvements

 
Class Changes
 
 
Ranger
Main Weapon, Succession
Twisting Wind
  •  Changed to now be registerable in a Skill Cooldown Slot.
 
Berserker
The Awakened Berserker was required to switch to main weapon skills to obtain certain helpful buffs unavailable from his Awakening skill arsenal. The combo of Headbutt - Storming Beast - Frenzied Destroyer was crucial to maintain increased Melee Accuracy and AP buffs for Awakening. If a monster did not fall to Awakening skills wielded after applying these buffs from that Main Weapon skill combo, you would have to switch back to your main weapon and reapply the same combo. Therefore, with this update, we changed the Buster Training - Blasting combo to now increase your Attack Speed and Melee AP so you can stay in Awakening while dishing out combos.
Main Weapon
Boulder
  • Changed the skill's attack range and the description of its damage has been changed accordingly.
    • Attack Damage 1351% x5, max 2 hits → Attack damage 1351% x10

  • Changed the Balenos Abyssal Vein exit from the Magnus to be activated when the Serendia Abyssal Vein exit is activated.
    • This Abyssal Vein will be activated after completing [The Magnus] By Mountain's Breeze.
      • For Adventurers who have already completed the above quest, it can be activated upon obtaining [Knowledge] Abyssal Veins: Balenos via  the Black Spirit (/) -  Talk (W).

Balenos Territory Field Bosses

Tired of the endless hordes of Adventurers who seek out their ruin, Red Nose, Dastard Bheg, and Dim Tree Spirit have decided to band forces and unleash havok together all over the Balenos Territory.
  • Dastard Bheg will first appear in Balenos Forest, attacking any adventurers who travel through Heidel Pass. 
    • Once you take down Dastard Bheg, Red Nose will appear at Agris Steppe near the Western Guard Camp to threaten Adventurers and soldiers alike.
      • Once Red Nose is defeated, the Dim Tree Spirit will awaken, shaking the very foundations of the Forest of Seclusion.
* Each Field Boss appears approx. 3 min after the previous boss has been defeated.

Serendia and Driegan Territory Ruins Bosses
