Updates Oct 2, 2024, 10:25 (UTC) Patch Notes - October 2, 2024

 

Greetings Adventurers,


Here are the latest update details for Black Desert Online on October 2, 2024 (Wed). Today’s patch contains 92 updates and is approximately 1.10 GB.

Guild Manor

Guild Manor has been added. The Guild Manor was designed to provide "a space just for our guild," but with so many guilds in Black Desert, there were constraints like location and required land.
 
As a result, Guild Manor utilizes the manor of a guild member, allowing the invitation of guild members to the selected manor. We hope this is a meaningful update for adventurers who want a place to rest and chat with guild members, and for adventurers who like to decorate their manor.
 
You can enter the Guild Manor via the Enter Guild Manor button in the Guild (G) window. Similar to the Traveler's Map, you will only be moved to the manor after the loading gauge has completely filled.
 
  • Added the Guild Manor feature, allowing a guild member's manor to be set as the guild's representative manor.
    • Adventurers with the Guild Master or Advisor position can designate one of the manors owned by a guild member as the Guild Manor.
    • The designated manor can be freely used by guild members.
 
 


How to Set the Guild Manor

  • The Guild Master or an Advisor can set the guild manor by clicking No guild manor has been set. in the Guild Window (G).
    • In the Guild Manor Settings window, enter the Family Name of the member you wish to designate and specify the manor they own.
    • The Family name of the Guild Manor's owner will display in the Guild Window (G).
  • The Guild Manor can be reset by the Guild Master or an Advisor in the same manner.

1. Click the "No guild manor has been set." message displayed in the Guild (G) window.
 
Enter the Family name of the member you wish to designate for the guild manor, and select one of their manors to set as the Guild Manor.
 

How to Use Guild Manor

  • Any guild member can move to the Guild Manor from anywhere.
How to Enter Enter using the "Guild Manor Teleport" button in the Guild Window (G).
(You can enter the Guild Manor from all areas, excluding some content and regions, with a set amount of time required for teleport.)
How to Exit Move to the character's previous location through the Guild Manor exit.
 
[Notes]            
- You can only set rented-out manors as the guild manor. Manors with expired contracts cannot be set as the guild manor.            
- You cannot press the Node/Conquest War and War of the Roses participation buttons inside the Guild Manor.            
- You will automatically exit the Guild Manor when using functions like Disconnect, Character Selection, or Escape.            
- You cannot move to the Guild Manor in the following situations:            
 * In certain locations such as Red Battlefield, Arena of Solare, Guild League, Black Shrine, Battle Arena, Jails and Marni Server            
 * When Node/Conquest War or War of the Roses participation buttons are pressed to Yes.            
 * When your character is over-encumbered.            
 * When carrying Processing Trade Items in the character or mount inventory, similar to Abyssal Well

Lakiaro

The method for collecting Lakiaro with a hoe has been revised. After gathering Lakiaro in Kamasylvia and Drieghan, an additional Lakiaro will appear nearby, allowing for further discoveries similar to finding multiple ages-old wild ginseng. Starting with at least one Lakiaro, discoveries may continue until a Primitive Lakiaro is found.
 
The initial Lakiaro obtained will have a grade assigned randomly. Subsequent Lakiaro found will increase in grade with each discovery, potentially reaching the Primitive grade. (However, if a Primitive Lakiaro is found first, no additional Lakiaro will appear nearby due to the depletion of the earth’s energy.)
 
To align with the gathering minigame, we've increased the Gathering EXP from the Lakiaro minigame and added new exchange items for "Energy of Lakiaro" including "Millennial Wild Ginseng." Additionally, the probabilities and quantities for obtaining the Energy of Lakiaro have been adjusted.
  • Improved so that a new Lakiaro is found nearby after finishing Lakiaro gathering.
    • The newly discovered Lakiaro appears at least once, and additional ones are found according to a set probability.
      • The grade of the initially discovered Lakiaro is determined by a set probability, and subsequently discovered Lakiaro may be of a higher grade than the previous one.
    • Newly discovered Lakiaro remain in place for 15 min before disappearing.
 
  • Tripled the Gathering EXP obtainable at each grade when gathering Lakiaro.
 
  • When you open a Lakiaro Sack, there's a set probability to receive Energy of Lakiaro.
  • The quantity of Energy of Lakiaro that can be received has been increased as follows.
Before After
Energy of Lakiaro x1 Energy of Lakiaro x1-5 according to a set probability
(The min/max number of Energy of Lakiaro obtainable varies depending on the grade of the Lakiaro Sack you open.)
 
  • Added the following items for exchange with the Energy of Lakiaro.
Once per Family
Exchange Item Required Items
Millennial Wild Ginseng Energy of Lakiaro x500
Unenhanced Dim Tree Spirit's Armor x1 (Existing) Energy of Lakiaro x100

    • Exchange the Energy of Lakiaro in possession for an item via the Manage Currency UI.
* Accordingly, changed so that the quest from Chief Valentine in Florin to exchange the Energy of Lakiaro for Dim Tree Spirit's Armor is no longer available.
 


War of the Roses

  • Improved so that mount death/destruction on the server does not incur penalties during the War of the Roses.
    • However, penalties will apply to mounts with Damage stats, such as guild mounts and large ships.
 
Item

Green Grade Horse Gear Simplification

Green-grade horse gear, previously divided by type and equip effect, has been simplified.
 
These simplified horse gears were designed according to specific concepts, but most adventurers have been using the Storm gear. To allow adventurers to make more meaningful use of green-grade horse gear, the equip effects of horse gear have been integrated and "Movement Speed Decrease" has been removed.
 
We'll also be continuing our work to simplify items that need it in the future.
  • Simplified existing Green Grade horse gear.
    • Accordingly, changed the following gear in possession during the maintenance.
Before After
Light Red Plumed Champron

Certain Materials' Weight Reduced

When crafting foods and drinks through Cooking or Alchemy, Purified Water and Distilled Water were previously heavier than other materials, hindering mass production.
We have reduced the weight of these materials, lessening this burden and allowing for more efficient crafting.
  • Reduced the weight of the following materials used in Cooking and Alchemy.
Item Before After
Purified Water 0.3 LT 0.1 LT
Distilled Water 0.3 LT 0.1 LT
 


[Guild] Pledge of the Blood Usage Condition

Updates in May and June allowed for various authorities to be granted to guild members regardless of their position.
However, the use of [Guild] Pledge of the Blood was only granted to guild members with the rank of Guild Officer or higher, requiring rank changes.
Now, [Guild] Pledge of the Blood can be purchased, stored, and used freely if members have the "Learn/Use Guild Skills" authority granted, regardless of position.
  • Adjusted the conditions for using the [Guild] Pledge of the Blood as follows.
    • Improved the inconvenience where guild members with Learn/Use Guild Skills authority, but not holding a Guild Officer position or higher, couldn't purchase or move the [Guild] Pledge of the Blood from Guild Storage.
[Guild] Pledge of the Blood Before After
Purchase   Guild Officer or higher Guild member with Guild Shop access
Use Guild Storage   Guild Officer or higher Guild member with Guild Storage access
Use Guild Skills   Guild members with "Learn/Use Guild Skills" authority Guild member with Learn/Use Guild Skills authority
 
Monster

Tungrad Ruins

As you grow stronger, it becomes more frequent to tackle multiple monster groups while the "Rumblings of Ulukita" buff is active in the Tungrad Ruins. However, the Tungrad Visionary wasn't affected by the damage increase effect from the buff, often being left behind as you moved on to the next monster group. This has been addressed, and now, when the Tungrad Visionary is knocked down, it will receive a DP decrease effect, making it easier to take down.
  • Improved to apply DP Decrease debuff when the Tungrad Visionary is knocked down by an attack.
 
The location of the Tungrad Visionary near the Tungrad Ruins node has been adjusted, which was separated from monster groups, to allow for a more smoother experience.
  • Fixed the issue where the Tungrad Visionary was too far from the group at a specific location.
 

 
  • Fixed the issue where some effects of Erebjork in the Trial of Erethea were abnormal.
  • Changed the Deposed Crown Prince to be knocked down in place when attacked by Duoksini during the Tale of the Deposed Crown Prince.
 
Mount
  • Fixed the issue where the cooldown from overheating after firing cannons could be shortened by repeatedly mounting and unmounting.
  • If you unmount and remount cannons during the overheat cooldown, the cooldown will take longer than if you remain mounted.
