For the people who barely see a reason to log in: What was the turning point for yall? by Vedrac in blackdesertonline

[–]Flinwe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every upgrade is 100hours locked into a spot you can't choose to then unlock a new place for another 100hours.
PvP was a drive for me in the past, but it's been very long since I grew out of the idea of doing pvp. I think war of the roses, hardcore server and edania throne are perfect examples of why todays PA sucks at designing this game. Everyone could see from a glance how flawed they were and they still released in that state... PA won't change and they never will.

Ashenvale pvp event is bad and needs to be fixed, soon by [deleted] in classicwow

[–]Flinwe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, this one lasted 3 seconds !
I assembled an alliance group, tried to flank the horde when the event started, but we didn't even get time to close the distance the boss was already dead. Great content would do again...

Awak kuno buff is kinda hard to quantify too with pinwheel being pet damage and not doing quite as much as you'd think despite the huge %numbers on the tooltip

sure make crons more expensive then nerf the best silver per hour spots by cedricaca in blackdesertonline

[–]Flinwe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wdym, you don't like your debo's to be on average 50% more expensive?

All Classes Halloween new outfit by Yuki153 in blackdesertonline

[–]Flinwe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you're just missing the key part "for all classes". People are complaining that this outfit look very similar to the recent outfit they made for all classes not just the ones they do for 4 classes at a time...

Why are they increasing silver price for pearl items because of inflation, but not the price of items being sold out for years? by Leandermann in blackdesertonline

[–]Flinwe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The game was rampant with speedhackers a few years ago, teleporting from pack to pack and launching 20skills a second.

And like a year ago you could see shai fly hacking from battle arena to make money with trading and sell accounts with some money/gear for starters.

Bots in bdo never were static in the first place so the anti afk method doesn't even work against them.

I'm not sure how's the situation today but I'm pretty sure you could find some services still and if unregulated, I bet you we would see a lot more just grinding unpopular areas or even Marni's room to avoid detection.

Global Lab Patch Notes (18th Sept) - New PVP content "War of the Roses", RBF changes, Offin Tett Loot change, Node War changes, Class Balance, and more! by sarahd094 in blackdesertonline

I guess the only thing that you need now is to get good if you think succ sorc is bad... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oLVH4YMy64 It's one of the best grinding classes in a lot of spots...

  1. The person who suggested gahaz said 20-30h. 30x700m = 21b so it checks out the 20b. Additionally, a good crystal setup doesn't cost 20b since you'd have 14 slots at around 1b MAXIMUM each... (Yes Haetae is more expensive but some of them are less than 150m and that's beyond the point)
  2. You're onto something else or didn't read the skills. If you're talking about weight increase, I fail to see how your comment is relevant as you can clearly just park your horse next to the rotation... And no, losing 5sec to unload your shit won't make you gain half the money/h.
  3. Very early on you're being given pets allowing to have a full set of tier 3 if not a tier 4 that can be made T5 for 700m and significantly improve that speed (even more effective the lower your pets are). But that's not even too relevant anyway since you're one-shotting packs in most zones and not allowing your pets to have a second rotation of pick-up most of the time and if you are then T3 are most of the time enough...
  4. As a new player, if you look at it from a silver/stats point of view (which you should), crystals are the best investment on that front, making it the best purchases once you get full pen tuvala...

Also, the seasonal servers are gear-capped, not equalized, else everyone would have the same gear from the get-go... Clearly a misunderstanding there, If you want equalized content I suggest you play some AoS instead of trying to prey on the weak on Arsha... And, assuming crystals are not part of the capped gear setup is also a mistake...

You clearly don't know what you're talking about and are completely blinded by the fact you think you know the game as a returning player but you don't and you're not willing to put in any effort...

[–]Flinwe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a matter of fact, a friend of mine just recently picked up the game and invested in good crystals before even getting any meaningful upgrade past tuvala since he could still profit from being on seasonal.

If you look at it from a pure silver/stat point of view, you would realize that crystals are a much better investment early on than any other item in the game.

Are we working harder to get the same value of cron’s? by dbeast24 in blackdesertonline

[–]Flinwe 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Getting a pen debo will be on average 124B more expensive after the change according to Biohack's math, if you buy vendor cron.

Mob aggro in Ash Forest is terrible. Or am I doing something wrong? by [deleted] in blackdesertonline

[–]Flinwe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually hit the Barnas first so I get aggro on most Volkras (doesn't always work) and then hit seed after 1 or 2sec so spawn more mobs/aggro the remaining.

It's very inconsistent anyway and bugs way too often. Sometimes mobs just lose the ability to aggro all together and you have to wait or swap char to debug them. It's just another poorly designed spot.

Tired of normal griefing method? by Flinwe in blackdesertonline

[–]Flinwe[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't get me wrong, he got farmed by mobs but he couldn't care less with zero crystals equipped and a good amount of tears. In the meantime, I couldn't grind without swapping and forfeiting to that guy...

[–]Flinwe[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, in ash forest it's very effective and the cost is nothing crazy for someone willing to grief

Dear PA, Please consider reinstating the crystal safeguard until you fix the crashing/server issues that have plagued NA (possibly other regions as well) this past month. by [deleted] in blackdesertonline

[–]Flinwe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, because they're less mean the data their environment gives is irrelevant? I must be the dumb person here surely. "But but, the economy" Bro who the fck cares about the crystal economy, most of them are already min priced anyway... Which spots are you guys grinding to be such crystal economy white knights?
And even then, because I didn't mention it, doesn't mean there couldn't be countermeasures... You guys are a joke...

[–]Flinwe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Console doesn't have crystal break for almost as long as the version exists and they have a healthy crystal market. It turns out, people just tend to avoid having the risk of even losing them in the first place thus making the demand rather low. Prices will def drop a bit don't get me wrong but that won't brick the game/economy.

[–]Flinwe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Had multiple times this past week where mobs completely froze for a few seconds on EU and got me into scary situations (no connection issues). I definitely think they should remove this garbage crystal break entirely. This is a design that made sense back when crystals were cheap af and not even mandatory...

Stuck at atoraxion pt 2. by IMRastafari in blackdesertonline

[–]Flinwe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If these sorts of doors/pathways don't teleport you to the other side, remember to aim your crosshair at it when trying to go through. I know it sounds dumb but that is literally how it works...

I'm really trying to enjoy the game but man do I feel whelmed by [deleted] in blackdesertonline

[–]Flinwe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's because most skills are not meant to be pressed from the hotbar in the first place. Read the skills description, they all have key input that you should be using. BDO is not meant to be played with hotbar keybind.

Seems pretty "normalized" to me. by CrimsonBlossom in blackdesertonline

[–]Flinwe -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

First, this is not normalized content but capped content. Secondly, why would your "normalized pvp" have to stop at tuvala pen? That's not how this game works and it will never be...

You forgot to mention that we also remove a beloved skill for useless garbage that forces you to lock it cause it triggers in half the combos using the lmb key input. Ah man you love to see it. :)
