Long time lurker.... I just had to post to let everyone know how excited I was to be able to make a Blader named ShogunMarcus. Inspiration below. Unfortunately I wasn't able to figure out how to give him a gut and a mullet.

The only reasonable argument that I have read which was mildly against afk activities is the idea that if a feature is so dull that most people prefer to participate via afk then the developers should consider redesigning the feature because video games are supposed to be interactive and fun. This argument doesn't necessarily support the removal of afk as part of the redesign. Just changing it so that it is more fun to engage in while actually playing.

I personally don't have any beef with the afk options and rather enjoy them, but I can get behind this argument as well.

I kinda like the afk activities. It feels like one of those things that shouldn't be in the game but it is. Like you're breaking the game or cheating kinda I guess, and it's kinda cool.

I think the afk fishing is to make people not bother trying to figure out ways to bot fishing.

That well is so poisonous you'd think Skaven got to it. Between the Koreans, the Chinese and the Japanese there's like a million nationalist historians who think they invented everything and everyone's just copying them. The idea that "oh, these two geographical areas that are close to each other kinda fell into the same type of sword" is loving impossible to those dudes.

Did they ever fix that bug where it would crank the GPU to 100% and cause a meltdown if/when the game crashed while minimized-to-tray?

I hate this. I can wake up in the morning and walk into the room with the computer in it and instantly know if BDO has crashed or not.

Also, the gains are pretty minimal unless you bought 100s of bag space and have a super upgraded Epheria rod and you'll still make maybe 1mil or so leaving it over night (I do it casually, and it only nets like maybe 200-300k overnight). Which is around 20-30 minutes of grinding at late game? Not to mention you can be killed AFK fishing and lose XP, which is significant above lvl 51.

See, this makes me feel a lot better about it. I was under the impression that afk fishing would generate 2-3 hours worth of money.

Was it at night by any chance? People are saying that they're getting higher exp gains at night with horses, wagons aren't getting it though.

I think the karma system could use a looky loo, last night a 4 man group flagged on me and I killed two, then my buddy came in and we wiped them out repeatedly because they were zerging back in and scrubbing out. When it was all said and done I was at -135k karma, my bud was at -60ish, for basically defending and they were able to take the zone because I didn't want to dig any more of a hole. We ended up just wardeccing and griefing their clan for the rest of the night, but being perma flagged for something I didn't even start is kinda bunk.

I just started this game a few days ago, still using my friend's free friendship code. I got a nice tamer going and just hit level 20!

Decided to try out hunting. God this is a pain in the rear end. Are there any proper hunting guides? So far all I have is a pathetic tanning knife and the training rifle.

I don't believe hunting is fully implemented as of yet. It can be sort of hard finding guides for the game at first because of the layered versions currently out in different parts of the world. There's a BDO bible pdf floating around though that might help you. I think it's been linked in this thread about 100 times so I'll just leave the googling up to you :)

Oh also I forgot to mention as a sort of PSA, I'm not sure if it's a bug or not but you can currently get two Maewah tokens a day if you log on to an alt and grab one too. I found this out on accident last night and it appears to stop at two no matter how many alts you have.

Bug or not get ye extra token every day!

I make more than the other poster. I have something like 50-60 bag slots open on my main. After a night of afk fishing at a golden hotspot I usually take home about 600k. So mileage does vary I guess.

This is entirely possible. I usually get on about 5ish Central and this was a few hours later when I was dumping alt energy. I've never seen two loyalty rewards in the same day but that's likely because I'm synced up with those, my bad.

Actual psa: Don't claim your Maewha tokens. Just log out and back in after every refresh. You can claim them all at once. They do not stack and you need 15 of them which can be alot of inventory.

Hey guys,

i grinded 1 Hour with pets and about 1 Blackstone(weapon) and 1 Hour without pets (manual looting) and had 3 Armor and 1 Weapon Blackstone :O ...

I had always the feeling, that having 1 or 5 luck didn't change anything, maybe thats the reason why.

People say luck and investing in nodes help but even then it looks like the drop rates are pretty bad unless you got hours to burn.

I got cron castle to rank 7 now and I still don't get many drops. RNG is a bitch.
