So I hit 20 and wanted to get in on the hot horse-breeding action and there's no loving horses anywhere. Even flipping channels trying around 5 different spawns I didn't find poo poo. Kinda sucks :|

Just as a note you don't need to be level 20 to tame a horse, that's outdated info on some guides. You just need training level 5.

And yeah, horses are on a 1-2+ respawn timer and quite a few people are taming them, so finding one is kind of hard.

This guy's pvp videos is what made me originally pick berserker so it's a bit disheartening to see this as his next video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ultGzo-piXE

hopefully by the time I manage to get off my rear end and finish grinding to 50, I will be miraculously lucky and not suffer from it though I don't hold much hope since I've already seen other berserkers in the guild complain about it.

Otherwise maybe I'll just make a warrior alt or something cause the way it looks in that video looks way too irritating to play.

I can vouch as a 50 zerk this happened a ton during the treant pvp spree earlier today.

So in regards to boss summon scrolls, would anyone be interested in setting up a group that does it once a week? Doing a handful a day is kinda mind numbing, I think if we just saved up all week and did all of them in one huge chunk It'd be a lot more enjoyable.

Let me know!!

I had it happen with a boss fight last night and chalked it up to just random lag. Then I saw this video linked from an official forum megathread full of angry people suffering from it in pvp, so I don't hold out much hope for a quick fix.

Someone on reddit posted that apparently this kind of desyncing has been fixed in one of the Mediah update patches but who knows when that hits NA.

I had the same issue for a while. watch your send/receive, and if it's the same issue as mine, it was because of massive packet loss on my sends

I'm under 500 miles from the server on a 110Mb connection. I had no packet loss in any other game

some people reported fixing it by deleting your cache folder in black desert install folder, as well as the black desert folder in my documents

reenabling Nagle's Algorithm/Disabling Leatrix Latency Fix (if you've messed with those) slightly fixed it for me. VPNing did not, nor did any other fixes I tried over the week it occured

Currently at -945000 karma. Took me 3 hours of grinding since i had to kill a guy in my grind spot. Gonna get to 300k so I can walk into towns again without being killed. Then I'm gonna kill everyone.

About that, yeah we should do that. Bit easier to organize. Should make a spreadsheet of people wanting to do it and have them put in how many scrolls of each they accumulated at the end of the weekdays then on the weekend organize a party of summons.

You know you've done something right in your game when a player can spend 6 hours playing, not gain a single level, kill probably less than 100 mobs, and just wander around a single town running errands and learning how to trade. The kicker is that I didn't even test out my new scotch glasses until after I logged!

Is there a good guide anywhere on how to set up the best trade routes? I started playing a few days ago (level 16) and I find the whole thing confusing and weird.

Also, I assume the goon guild(s) are full atm?

Sorry this game has put me to sleep five out of seven nights. No MMO has done that til thiis game. I feel its a mixture of civilization, due to outsourcing workers for gathering and such. I feel it is a knock off of Archeage, as I cant steal someone trade route bags. I feel limited in weapons I use, but it is nice to have controls over skills I admit. I feel the game is to solo of a game at the moment, and to scripted, simulator how archeage is time, day event scripted. Yes I can fish, but I rather kill fishermen in AA, I rather swim underwater in awe,. atm the underwater looks like crap verses the land.



The game has good points, but I know if i want to really enjoy this game I have to wait for future patches so i should not waste my time right now.



This game launched with AA out, ESO DLC thief guild, and Bless online. Out of the three Bless does keep me up and hooked with what it did, The one promising thing about Bless and BDO, is the Duan is supposed to get publishing rights for na/eu so I guess they will get my wallet eventually. I look long term at BDO and it needs something that players will grow for in groups/guilds. not a solo game.

The respawn time and number of horses that spawn is the only reason why I have not tried horse breeding yet which is a shame because I would really like to do it. I don't have a lot of time to play and most of it is smack in the middle of evening prime time so spending it looking for a horse only to turn up nothing on many nights is enough to convince me not to try. I don't want to have to channel swap either. I understand that creating artificial scarcity is necessary to make an MMO market viable, but it isn't worth this crap.


Horizontal Tree posted:

A lot of people say not to do this and to leave Velia asap. I am not going to say that these people are wrong but I am not going to tell you to do that either because I spent a ton of time there and had a lot of fun. What I will say though is that if you start to feel even a little bored then do yourself a favor and head south to Heidel to at least check it out. Don't worry about the fact that you still have a lot of quests around Velia. Just go. You can always head back to Velia easily and continue questing. I say this because it is easy to burn out in Velia before really experiencing everything the game has to offer.

Any weapons go to +7 safely. Basteer is special as you will exchange it on a quest, you do not need to get it to more than +1 and the quest will give you a special Basteer blackstone to do so.

Bless and BDO both had very similar looking fansites when word started surfacing about them getting ported to English releases, and they're both the newest action-fantasy MMOs around, so I think people lump them into the same category as a result.
