Grinding to 50 unlocks PVP for all your chars though doesn't it? My alt got attacked trying to tame a horse yesterday by someone in a Ghilly. Luckily he could only swish at air

Nope, you can tell who is able to pvp because they have a blue name. Your alts will stay out of pvp til they also hit 45.

 

[vakarian32]

shiiiiit, guess I know what I am going to be doing. Anything crazy needed to setup an xbox controller?

Nah nothing special, the game supports the controller already you just need to enable it in the options. Drop 1 contribution point into an empty residence so you don't get stuck on furniture and you're good to go.

I placed the rubber band pulling the left stick upwards, then wrapped it around the controller and onto the right stick pulling that diagonally downwards, so your character moves in a circle.

Some of the filters and shots in this game make it real easy to make it looks like some sort of horror film

Your character looks better than mine What's with the donkey on the wall though breh.

Hey, another quick question - are there servers that separate regions? I have a friend in Denmark that I would want to play with but I'm in the US. Thanks!

 

[Teknoman]

Sounds like you like it to me



You will thank the stars you have that money when it comes time to upgrade that gear

At what point do they stop giving you gear for quests?

Yeah servers are separated in US and EU but you can play on either. Characters are regionlocked though.

Anyone have any problems with gamepad?

I have a Logitech gamepad and the game just refuses to detect it after I checked the "Use Gamepad" option and restarted the game. This gamepad works fine with other games so the pad itself is functional. Any tips?

 

[Miragith]

I repaired my Epheria fishing rod at a vendor and it increased my max durability by 1. Does anyone know how that happened and how that works?

 

[Pheace]

I just had to have an appointment right in the middle of the maintenance period every week... can't even sleep through it properly ;_;

you both have a friend request from me

I think I accepted your invite though I didn't initially realize it was probably you until some time later. (can't check the name at the moment due to maintenance)

Sent you a couple of messages in the past few days but no luck yet

Took a pic of the boat island everyone was fishing from yesterday. Thought Id share.

I afk'd on one of the boats while fishing and when I came back I had been left out on some island alone and scared. Watch your back

 

[datamage]

This is the first MMO in a while that has my curiosity. If anyone has a guest pass that they're willing to spare, that would be awesome. Though I may just spring the $29 to try it out..

If I start out with the Traveler's Package, can you later upgrade to the Explorer's?

 

[Hari Seldon]

I'm thoroughly addicted to this game. There is just a crazy amount of shit to do. I haven't been this into an MMO since vanilla WoW. I honestly thought this genre was dead.

You could during pre-orders, dunno if you still can. Although you'll still better to just buy the difference in cash shop and buy whatever you want.

Link for the new patch notes
http://forum.blackdesertonline.com/index.php?/topic/45402-patch-notes-march-16/

Things I noticed they added a RP chat but how does one RP a world chat? Shouldnt all chat be local based? I dont understand the "Role Play" of this.

They added a new dog pet

Spoiler

cuz fuck, no one wanted the penguin pet

Costume helps with fishing iirc, don't remember the stats though. Interesting patch overall. Glad about the horse tier stuff and more channels.

Quick pic of the new fishing suits stats(as listed in its description)

 

[Hellers]

Last night my plan was to just chill for an evening and do some fishing. What actually occurred was my tamer finishing the orc, bandit and harpy areas.

 

[Sophia]

The outfit from the cash shop I want is this one. The others don't seem to be too appealing to me, but this one is pretty cute. >.<;

Oooh, I like the Kyrill one. And there's a Witch version.

All the developers need to do to get my money, apparently, is a bunch of cute $20 outfits. >_>;

Love that purple and black combo

Urrgghhh been too busy to log on recent. Bet my farm is dead ;-;

 

[Astra]

Haven't had the chance to play for the last few days, so hopefully I haven't been removed from the guild

I want to get into the whole crafting and trade routes thing, so if anyone has a decent guide for it, I'd appreciate a link.

I'm only level 15 at the moment, but I assume now is a fine time to start the crafting/gathering stuff?

 

[mkenyon]

The Tamer looks so awkwardly nonathletic. It's a really weird pose/stance/body for what is supposed to be the most mobile of classes.

I think it's that she's toed in so much.

It's a very strange look and makes no sense.

Just need to put the muscle slider to max maybe.

I have all my muscle sliders at max and still have goofy feet.

The east has a fascination with pigeon-toed girls. They're supposed to look cute.

Crops won't grow unless you're on.

Ya'll forgot the best UI change:

UI

Changed the horse &#8220;Parking&#8221; notice to only appear above your horse.

 

[Bombless]

Oh my god the armour tatters as durability falls? THIS GAME.

 

[sqwarlock]

I'm still not sure if I want to take the plunge and buy this. Enjoyed my time in the 7 day trial, but god damn if I wasn't lost and confused most of the time. Just kept doing quest after quest after quest and ended with no direction for my character. Tried a conversation once and my head exploded. Didn't even touch trading/fishing/farming/etc.

If the feeling of being overwhelmed with systems and no real direction from the game itself bugs you, I'd definitely suggest not buying it.

It's no sandbox, but it definitely creates that same sort of feeling you get in one. Lots of random systems and even progression hidden without much support from the game on how to proceed.

 

[shadowstar]

I want this one and waiting for the day I can give Daum way too much money for digital clothes.

Let me give you money!

 

[Velkyn]

I'm loving this game so far! It's the only MMO I haven't dropped after a few days out of sheer boredom. I don't think I can stand another themepark MMO these days; I've played the hell out of every MMO in the last 16 years or so.

Been taking it a bit slow for a number of reasons; I chief among them: I don't want to rush to cap without sieges.

Secondly, I'm still not sure which classes I want to focus on. I tried witch to level 20, I love her look and skills, but I'm not convinced on her playstyle. Am I missing something? I feel like I'm just gathering groups of mobs and one shotting them. Doesn't seem to have much depth to me. Maybe sorc would be more my thing?

That's what's so great about this game. Feeling lost and needing to explore and not being hustled from one quest hub to the next is what makes it so fun and refreshing, but if that's not your thing then I would say don't buy it, I guess. The Black Spirit quests will guide you through the leveling process via appropriate level quests, but outside of that the game won't really hold your hand. Plenty of good themepark MMOs around if you prefer that style. I think the game is very rewarding once you start to understand its more obscure/niche/obtuse elements.

I'm having a blast with witch but I don't really like any of their costumes.

That black/violet tamer costume tho...!

Honestly, leveling is easy and in fact does consist of just rounding up lots of enemies and blowing them down in a few hits and repeating that for hours. Sorc and valk are even more faceroll than witch. PvP and boss enemies that don't go down in one or two hits are where you'll need to really "git gud" and be better at combos, attack canceling, evasion, etc. but unfortunately you very rarely get exposed to that stuff while learning the game.

Yep. Basically, what was once looked at as a birth defect, is now an endearing quality in the East.

I agree with you that I don't like the Witch costumes except for that one and the one currently in game. Everything else is bleh. Everything in game is worse! I like playing my witch more than my other characters, but my alts all look so much better. Even dyes can't fix the default robes.

( &#865;° &#860;&#662; &#865;°)

Btw, I'm kinda happy that I don't like any of the Ranger outfits other than the one I already got (the scarf one). Yay for saving money!

I still want the jacket and trousers one for my Sorc.

If it serves for something, I was stupidly lost for like almost two weeks too, but now everything has come together, and I didnt really read a guide (just asking here and there). At the end you'll apreciate is more complicated than the norm, because it also makes it more fun too. It's probably the only MMO were you can spend a week without grinding levels and doing combat stuff and still have a lot of fun .

Sorc is fun and have both powerful single target and aoe combos. It's basically a melee fighter with some magic and teleport.

The problem is that this game PvE is really easy (atleast until end-game bosses) so you just AoE shit to get more EXP. It's a shame because the combat is soo good and deep, with multiple combos and even animation canceling stuff going on.

In a way the plainness of my potato sack robes is kind of refreshing!

I know... been doing so much crafting and gathering and trading and horse hunting. My quest situation has looked like this for a few days now

Probably tackling this tonight, first time to go kill mobs since the weekend.
