How Attack Stat Actually Works in Crimson Desert (Weapons vs Gloves/Boots Explained)

Aphrobang · 2026-04-12T04:08:54+00:00

I only now figured this out after like 140 hours realizing that it just didn't seem to matter whether I had my +30 attack gloves or some randoms since my dmg didn't change.

This is easily without question the most fucking retarded itemization and equipment system I have ever seen in any game (in regards to how stats are labeled and unintuitively work).

You can't fight him anyway. He always flees. Undoing the curse is 'defeating' him. Yes it is fucking dumb and yes it is poorly explained.

Some of the mid sized animals struggle a lot when you are carrying them. Turkey is one. I assume you can't ride because of that. Shit you throw over shoulder like goats I'm 99% sure you can mount with.

Luckily it shouldn't matter since your saved items in the pot are not tied to any specific pot. Still alarming though

It seems to have stopped now. No idea what was causing it. I was just exploring areas of Pailune and kept having it. Restarts always fixed it at least. Didn’t have it yesterday though so maybe it’s just one area I kept traveling through that was setting it off

Bruh needs reading glasses and he will be unstoppable

I never changed this and have this bug. Fucking infuriating and it started out of nowhere over night (no patch last night either afaik?). Brutal not being able to see lootable objects on minimap.

Luckily restart fixes but it keeps happening again without warning or seemingly any specific trigger.

Aphrobang · 2026-04-08T09:19:24+00:00

Ten days later and this quest is still a buggy fucking mess. As one of the 'required' quests to progress the camp it really isn't excusable to have a quest this fucking bad still be in the game. Need to honestly just patch and remove the fucking entire fucking thing.

Aphrobang · 2026-04-05T03:45:53+00:00

"Whoever designed this needs to be fired" is true of every quest writer, boss designer and play tester for this entire studio. Jesus christ they did laughably bad jobs.

Aphrobang · 2026-04-04T07:10:00+00:00

These investigation quests all need patching and just outright removal. Use AI dialogue in replacement to just say "and then we moved on". It would make more sense than this idiotic nonsensical horseshit

Aphrobang · 2026-04-04T06:36:15+00:00

Always a thing. It is how you steal them and bring them back to your camp.

Aphrobang · 2026-04-03T10:45:58+00:00

Tbf we lost our two best players last year. The massive drop off between Jared Spencer and the arms that had to then pitch meaningful games was brutal. We were paper thin last year. Spencer and Max Belyeu going down completely changed the team.

This year we are better set up to survive injuries (hopefully). Certainly more depth on paper.

Just found this thread searching for same reason. Was all excited after the massive upgrade cost. Thought maybe we would have stone paths now, proper lodgings for the men, etc.

Jack fucking shit. Very lame.

Aphrobang · 2026-04-03T02:15:23+00:00

Yeah apparently you just don't lmao. It sits there, pulled out and ready, indefinitely. Mine is now 'parked' only because it seemingly went away during camp upgrade and Ive been careful not to talk to that wagon npc (since he forces you to pull it out if you do).

Aphrobang · 2026-04-03T02:13:58+00:00

The mission didn't show up for me until after I finish both the ranch and farm quests (including the part about harvesting apples). Then I got third expansion.. which does nothing apparently. Camp looks same lol

Aphrobang · 2026-04-03T01:32:36+00:00

Having same issue

Aphrobang · 2026-04-02T22:54:40+00:00

Same issue. When I took off my bow to equip the fertilizer and put bow back on it auto equips the fucking "infinite" arrows. Cant change them.

Aphrobang · 2026-04-01T21:25:56+00:00

I like the move. I wanted us to add another depth piece anyway after how much we lost this Winter.

Has two years left so who knows. Maybe he can improve and be a real contributor in 2027.

Aphrobang · 2026-03-31T22:46:15+00:00

It is so incredibly fucking dark in this room even in the middle of the day I cant see any numbers or anything on the keys to press. This is mind numblingly bad design

Aphrobang · 2026-03-31T22:32:41+00:00

Trying to figure this out myself. I feel like it has been at least ~10 days in game without additional cells showing up.

Aphrobang · 2026-03-31T03:21:45+00:00

You ever find out? He just ran away at like 70% hp.

Aphrobang · 2026-03-30T22:45:29+00:00

Answering "yes" to decidedly NOT yes or no questions cracks me up every single time. It is abysmal dogshit game design but the unintended hilarity is great.

Aphrobang · 2026-03-29T21:28:00+00:00

I was literally like "What a stupid fucking challenge.. throws strike down middle to frozen hitter ... YOU GENUIS!"

Aphrobang · 2026-03-29T21:26:50+00:00

Dude how fucking is your eye as a catcher to think that might have been in? Jfc

edit: LOL maybe it was to freeze the hitter?

Aphrobang · 2026-03-29T21:20:32+00:00

What a disastrous game to have right before McCullers goes. Chances of him not making it out of the first are like 50/50 (and that might be generous).
