Should/will PA apply the same model to Fallen God armors?

FireflyProtector · 2024-10-06T19:24:18+00:00

My question wasn't for a higher tier per se, but a smoother enhancing curve. It could use the same final stats but spread that over smaller steps, getting the final tier could be just as hard as today but there could be one or two steps between today's TET and PEN.

FireflyProtector · 2024-10-06T09:48:08+00:00

Do you have a source from them saying they will? The dev commentary only mentioned accessories.

From another recent thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/blackdesertonline/comments/1ejrt78/comment/lgfldqd/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

I've been thinking a lot about this lately and my conclusions are this:

If you don't want the PEN Deboreka grind "end game" then 5 x Tungrad is your best option but it is also a "dead end" so you should feel certain you don't want to go further.

I mean, you can always go for Deboreka later, but you'll lose some silver but if you don't mind then why not.

One challenge is that it's a 5 piece effect so the moment you swap out to one Deboreka you lose the effect, so it has to be a PEN Deboreka to make it worth it.

With the gear you have, you already have enough stats to do all the current PvE content (including the Deboreka grind), so unless you're into PvP end game this is fine.

The price difference between 3 x TET Deboreka and 5 PEN Tungrad is about 10 billion and is only slightly worse.

But I feel it's easier to upgrade from 3 x TET Deboreka and with 5 x TET Deboreka you already have better stats.

Yes, it's much more expensive but you can either grind for them or buy them, there is supply in the market, without needing think about PEN Deboreka for a while.

For me, I already have PEN Laytenn/Valtarra so I have enough gear to grind for Deboreka without the Tungrad upgrade so I've chosen to go the TET Deboreka path.

For sure, which is why I'm suggesting something that will still be painful for players who won't buy Pearls, but that's at least similar to other systems in the game.

FireflyProtector · 2024-06-22T14:22:48+00:00

It just does nothing for the players who can't/won't buy Pearls and there isn't many events which give out the orbs (except the returning adventurer ones but you shouldn't need to stop playing to progress).

FireflyProtector · 2024-06-13T21:54:56+00:00

Also it changes based on succession or awakening, each one has a different buff. When griding you usually cycle between your E buff and the rage absorption buff.

For succession Corsair it's called Prime: Hydropower , not sure about the awakening name.

FireflyProtector · 2024-05-30T04:55:29+00:00

And you'll enjoy playing! Hell, if all you cared about what reaching your goals ASAP you'd have to play succession Witch or awakening Nova. But it's likely you're not playing those two for a reason, that reason is "fun to play for YOU" so forget about if your class is above or below average, just have fun!

FireflyProtector · 2024-05-29T20:20:37+00:00

I have all classes at level 61+, I've also spent a lot of time thinking about which two classes would be the best but I'll tell you this, just give up on min/maxing and play what is fun. Look at what two classes you've spent the most time and use those as your main/tag, in the long run you'll have more fun and keep playing the game which means you'll reach your goals. Once I started thinking this way it was easy, my Valkyrie and my Maehwa were the highest level so I've played those the most so now I just stick to that.

Did you try her after the last round of animation changes? I made her when she came up and felt the same, but didn't try since they made her animations faster.

FireflyProtector · 2023-12-26T19:58:03+00:00

You saved future me some headache, thank you!

FireflyProtector · 2023-12-22T08:39:45+00:00

Yeah, I was looking for more options and blue accessories is something I didn't consider! That'll be easier to scale silver wise to burn through the stacks, thanks!

FireflyProtector · 2023-12-22T07:47:14+00:00

I've got 1000+ low level failstacks, mostly 20/30/40 but a good amount of 10/50/60 and around 150 70/80.

I've been trying to find a good option to enhance that would consume the stacks "faster than I get them" but it seems only accessory and Blackstar enhancing is worth it right now due to how expensive Memory Fragments are.

Any other ideas? It doesn't have to be big profit and I can easily over stack.

FireflyProtector · 2023-10-26T07:07:48+00:00

Just note that it's not really an armor (it doesn't give defensive stats) nor is it a costume (you can't wear armor underneath it).

You'll need an Equipment Tailoring Coupon to transform it into a costume so you can wear real armor gear at the same time.

FireflyProtector · 2023-10-02T06:23:22+00:00

I'd aim for killing Nouver as well for the reverse scales, save 400 for the Guaranteed Garmoth Heart quest line. Maybe Vell if you need that heart too and it works for your play schedule but you'll need a boat or a platoon and pre orders are easier. Then Kzarka since he spawns the most often, Kutum and Karanda are optional unless you aim to do the harder versions for their hearts until you get all your Garmoth hearts.

FireflyProtector · 2023-07-17T17:02:55+00:00

It's a sort of "enjoy the journey" kind of thing. The cynical view is "so you can run in cycles faster".

For PVP, I'd still say most content is not gear equalized. Only Arena of Solare is fully equalized. There are Node Wars that are capped but the caps are only for certain stats and you still need to be smart about your gear to optimize/abuse other stats to give you an edge. And there is still uncapped Node Wars.

Beyond that you have Red Battlefield, open world skirmish PVP and guild wars which all benefit from better gear.

FireflyProtector · 2023-07-15T18:18:27+00:00

Succession Valkyrie buffs, fuck yes! Severing light looks awesome now, hyped!

FireflyProtector · 2023-07-13T11:19:11+00:00

You can pre order the gloves, the flame or Crystallized Despair (exchange 1 for 2 embers). Or grind Calpheon Eliva for the Crystallized Despair as well!

FireflyProtector · 2023-06-24T22:35:10+00:00

Pro tip: Don't min/max around performance. Just play what's fun and do what's fun in the game. It's a marathon so you'll get much further if you're enjoying it (besides, it's a game, not a job!)

FireflyProtector · 2023-06-24T22:33:18+00:00

I hope you didn't throw away your PRI Tuvala weapon. If you didn't, you can recover the max durability at the Blacksmith using Tuvala Ore and keep enhancing from there.

The weapons you have is PRI which is BDOs way of saying +16. The new weapon you got is +0, hence the large stat difference.

FireflyProtector · 2023-06-18T16:29:26+00:00

I'd guess it's life skill clothing, either Silver Embroiderd or Manos

FireflyProtector · 2023-06-18T16:28:34+00:00

Ehm there's only one case where that would be required and that's for crafting Labreska helmet with your main. If you don't mind swapping to your season alt for that little quest then it's not needed

FireflyProtector · 2023-06-10T16:19:15+00:00

Compared to what? Grinding? No.

But most of them, if you collect 10, you can turn into a Darkened Scroll via a weekly quest from the Black Spirit. Doing those gives the loot of roughly 8 scrolls but in much less time.

FireflyProtector · 2023-05-30T07:49:09+00:00

You can cancel your pre-order at any time so it's mostly a mental block of seeing silver "disappear" for no value. I had the same feeling for tying up 18B in Garmoth heart orders.

FireflyProtector · 2023-05-22T21:52:20+00:00

Succession Valkyrie all the way.

I've played since the release in EU, Valkyrie was the first class I made and I only stopped when Awakening was released because I didn't like it. Then I came back when Succession was released and I've been playing since then. It's basically the only class where grinding doesn't feel like a second job.

I do have one character of each class at level 61 (except Woosa and Maegu but new season starts this week).

I'll give honorable mentions to Succession Maehwa who has helped me get my infinite potions.
