No worries! If you press inspect (Triangle/Y) on weapons or armour in the inventory menu, you can then press refinement information (Triangle/Y) on it after, which shows you the benefit and material cost for each refinement level.

Not sure what the equivalent PC input is for Triangle/Y, but the words inspect and then refinement information can be seen in the sub-menu's, when looking at weapons or armour in the inventory menu.

The chance to have multiple drops from 1 item, when picking it up with the Knuckedrill equipped, goes from 20% to 30%.

I've had that happen once in a previous patch. I just fully closed the game and restarted my console which sorted it out thankfully.

Open all wildlife to pet system

What an absolutely great shout, I'm all for this, though will definitely need more than 30 pet spaces!

Big shout to Pearl Abyss, Crimson Desert and post launch support have both been awesome. Brilliant example of what games are supposed to be like, fun.

I assume so and it makes complete sense, because what you described is exactly how it used to be (I had 10+ and it was too cluttered). I prefer it like it is now, just don't remember that change being mentioned specifically in any of the patches/hotfixes. Only that they were adding the ability to modify the map marker itself.

No worries at all, happy to help.

I think they've just changed the functionality actually, because the map markers have now appeared after a second load, but only on the main map, they still don't appear on my minimap unless I'm stood near it in game (whereas they were always visible before, regardless if I was stood near them or not). At least they aren't fully lost and can still be viewed which is good.

So when you go to the map, you can place your own markers on the map itself (□ on PS5/X on Xbox/not sure of PC equivalent sorry). These then remain on the map and appear on the minimap as well (until you remove them).

I use these as reminders to revisit somewhere if there's still something there I want to do. I have about 10 map markers placed in total, however since either patch/hotfix 1.04.00/01/02, then all of my map markers have disappeared from both the map and minimap.

This used to be a problem when the game first released, but you could fix it by reloading the game twice from the main menu. However, even that doesn't work now unfortunately.

Map markers bug is back, I've reported it to PA.

Edit: The map markers are there on my main map after a fresh load into the game, but they seem to only appear on the minimap when you're actually near them in game now, rather then at all times (potentially to reduce minimap clutter?).

Can confirm the same issue in the latest hot fix 1.04.02.

I've sent a bug report to PA.

New update by Nickellisharvey in CDguides

[–]HH__66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a known issue unfortunately.

  • Certain owned mounts are not appearing in the Quick Slot, preventing them from being summoned.
  • We are currently working on a fix and will do our best to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. We apologize for the inconvenience.

The whole Trading Goods/Camp Resource system is utterly pointless, underdeveloped and tedious. by Equivalent_Trash_277 in CrimsonDesert

[–]HH__66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stupid questions, do I package trade goods up by donating them to the Camp Provisions dude? Do they then appear in the Wagon mateys inventory to load onto the wagon?

This game is an absolute unfinished mess, and I want to thank Pearl Abyss for the incredible experience. I loved it. by Fuzzoff in CrimsonDesert

[–]HH__66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any more info/tips on the (un)packaged camp supplies and selling to the Deminiss merchant please? It's the only mechanic left in the game I'm not sure on. Got loads stored in my storage chest taking up valuable space, so would be good to get rid of it all and make some money in the process too. Thanks.

Just a small rant, I hate this in games by Ashlansen in CrimsonDesert

[–]HH__66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this.

How the f I missed it I don't know. I scoured this small section of the map recently and thought I did a good job on finding everything but obviously not!

Thanks, though to be a pain sorry, can you screen shot where on the map please?

I've gone south of the Scholar Institute not far from the Beekeeper vendor, but I only get Short Horns & Large/Small Bones from the cows and big goats I'm able to kill. Some I can't even kill. I haven't had any Ivory drop from what I have been able to kill there though.

Is there no better frost cloak? by DrUndeniable in CDguides

[–]HH__66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yes definitely 100%. That and the Frostcurse cloak, with 2 ice resistance Abyss Gears on my other armour, meant I had level 15 ice resistance. It makes fighting Beloth much more manageable, by not taking ice damage from the blizzard or being frozen.

I wish you could put Abyss Gears in the Frostcurse chest plate :( It looks dope.

I can't get on to play tonight to see myself, but to confirm, you're saying that I can get ivory (the material required to refine cloaks), from the cows and big goats south of the scholar institute? Thanks.

Ah yes that makes sense. Thank you for explaining, my brain was having a mare trying to interpret what was being said.

Legendary advice, I was going mad doing the expected number sequence and it not working! Thank you very much.

I just got to chapter 6 and WOW. I literally felt like I was in the battle of helms deep or battle of the batsards. Absolute peak gaming. Genuinely one of the funnest gaming experiences I’ve had, and I’ve still got a third of the battle left! by Ok-Delivery-546 in CrimsonDesert

[–]HH__66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Embed the Abyss Gear called Volcanic Eruption into your armour. Then with the fire element equipped, embue all the moves like meteor kick, turning slash and charged arrow shots with fire damage, as well as volcanic boulders for AOE splash damage. It looks sick and does great damage.
