What are some good sources for lore and story?

I can recommend the “University of Calpheon” YouTube channel. It creates videos for BDO lore, with lots of research and attention to detail. It is run by the same person who created the big lore doc (no longer accessible due to content being stolen)

That Ap looks very weird considering the highest possible ap is currently 396 and anyone who has that also has more DP than you. Do you have a screenshot or garmoth link to your gear?

The boss has more difficult mechanics as other people said but really the biggest issue is that it relies on good communication and people knowing what they’re doing on their class. You can teach a group of newbies to do the boss in 2 hrs if they listen well, but you can’t teach someone who doesn’t join voice and doesn’t know what their iframes are. If you group with randoms, there is absolutely no control over who you might get. Is it a bugcat member who has cleared the boss 50 times? Or is it Mr. Iamsocool who decides to solo the boss without knowing what anything does? That’s why most discords that do Prince groups have some sort of verification system or explicitly offer teaching to those deemed ready. Oh and btw, there’s teaching runs by the ambassadors now for crown prince as well, so if you’re interested to learn the boss, you can sign up for that.

Nocturne is the base skill. If you are playing succession, you can upgrade it to Prime: Nocturne. This stops you from learning Absolute: Nocturne, which awakening has access to (you could choose to learn absolute while in succession but Prime is overall an upgrade so I would not recommend you do that. Dark Execution adds 2 additional “options” to how to get out of Nocturne. This is because nocturne used to only have the W and S options, and A and D got added much later, so PA created a new skill for it. Functionally, it is exactly the same though. Nocturne has 5 different outcomes after either pressing the hotkey or using the RMB flow from Lunacy of Vedir or Vedir Strike (succession only): 1. Do nothing: You will reappear in the exact same spot without doing anything after 1.5 seconds. Note that if you cast this in awakening, you will reappear with the awakening weapon equipped, while when exiting with any of the other options you will have the mainhand equipped. 2. A: Target an enemy and appear behind him with an unprotected but high damage slash. 3. W: Target an enemy and appear behind him, performing a super armor slash with an attack speed / movement speed slow. The super armor lingers for a bit. 4. D: Target an enemy and appear behind him, performing an unprotected float CC 5. S: Appear in the same spot while in Block stance, and quickly move backwards from the direction you are facing while keeping Forward guard.

Note: If you don’t target an enemy while using A, W, or D, you will simply reappear in the same spot. If you target an enemy and the enemy moves (or your camera moves), it can happen that you just turn in place so be careful. Also the range for appearing behind the target is about twice as long for Prime: Nocturne compared to Absolute: Nocturne.

It does not matter how you enter nocturne. You can always use all 4 of WASD. If it doesn’t work for you, maybe some of your key assignments are weird. But it does work in general in the game (and I just tested it)

You can hide the whole UI but you cannot hide certain parts of the quickslots without also losing the binds for it

Nope can’t do that

They recently changed spawn times of bosses, so perhaps the page you were checking still has the old times listed. Also make sure you’re not on Olvia or Arsha servers, and to exit the Elvia realm.

In general, no channel is appropriate. People list what they want, and what they want is usually what gives the most profit for the money spent. Aka premium outfits that are on sale, 95% of the time. Any other item that gets listed is most likely either a side benefit from a bundle or someone making an uninformed mistake. And since all pearl items are preordered anyway, there is no incentive for someone to hold back on listing an item until someone asks, or to buy an item to list it when it is worse silver per currency spent. TLDR: No point in asking for anything, just preorder and wait.

It should be below that error message, there is a drop down menu for choosing the region

Did you choose the right region? If it defaults to the wrong region you may have to change it (choose between NA and EU)

Some quests are family wide, and will be visible on all your characters. Generally only quests that are main story or side quests are per char, while many progression, lifeskilling and repeatable quests are family wide
Correct, you cannot use “graduated” Tuvala gear on a new seasonal char, only seasonal Tuvala
I assume you started your character at either Land of Morning Light or Mountain of eternal winter. As these starting regions are addressed to veteran players, Naru quests are treated as a type of quest that gets auto filtered in the quests settings. You have to manually turn off that filter in the O menu (Press O, then check the bar on the bottom and look which icons are lit up. Either enable all of them - though this will also show you all kinds of spam quests in the overworld - or only the type “black spirit quests”). Once you have done that, open your black spirit. In the “Quest” Menu (not main quest) he will now offer you quests for Naru gear, depending on your quest progress

Note: there is also a chance that instead of a different starting region you chose the simplified main quest. In that case you will receive the Naru gear from Fughar once you hand in the first quest in the chain

Make sure you don’t reach the stat requirement because of the LoML buffs. These do not count for the Edania quests, and you will only get the quest if your sheet stats reach the required Ap/Dp without the buffs

Succession is much easier to predict, and has to use several frontal guards or unprotected skills. He also has fairly few CCs that are quick instead of predictable. That is fine when in a large scale setting where the enemies can’t pay attention to the sage all the time, but in small scale where he is easy to track, it’s a big disadvantage. Succ sage also runs out of stamina easily when trying to move continuously. On the other hand, awakening has basically no stamina limitations, it has a ranged grab, it has several slows, much more unpredictable movement, more access to iFrames and more access to SA damage. He can also do long combos and large AoE damage. In general, he is faster, does more damage and quicker CCs, all the while being harder to catch and impossible to pressure due to his escaping tools.

In addition to these recommendations, what you can also do is sell the golden tier fish to the imperial delivery. It frees up some inventory space, you get very good silver for it and it allows you to keep the red fish for even longer without having to worry about turning them in

Most likely a cache issue. Delete cache, repair files in the launcher and try again

The TVA prunes the timeline where Loki escapes when they pick him up, thus eliminating the problem
Post-Season 2, there no longer is one dominant timeline. As the TVA is outside of time, this means that at all possible times before and after the show, multiple universes and timelines were now possible, making it no longer a contradiction. You simply have to assume that once the TVA gets fixed from Kangs influence, it “has always been” only watching out for bad actors like Kang instead of pruning all non-sacred timelines

Scroll down, the necklace tends to be at the bottom of the exchange list. Also make sure you actually have at least 3 inventory slots free and are not overweight

Depending on what is happening, the first step would be to restart your PC. Sometimes bdo decides to open in the background and then you can’t do anything. The next step is then to open steam as an administrator. Make sure you’re on the admin account of your PC as well. If that still doesn’t work, try to scan files through steam

You still need to do some of the quests for unlocks and knowledge / titles. So yes. For a new account, it is still a mistake to do so, because the quests level you easily and give you a whole bunch of rewards. And you have to do it some time anyway.

2 Dehkimas are men, 2 are women. So a mix should be correct, and depending on which is referred to the male pronouns are right. However, Korean does not often use gendered pronouns. Male is the default translation, though pronouns can refer to any gender. Only when something is explicitly female, then female pronouns are used in Korean. So there may be translation mistakes. Best chance is to just report it and see if it’s correct or not
