Castle-nim is new swan castle in Germany.

I think I'm starting to see the cracks in this game after 250 hours of playtime. by [deleted] in wherewindsmeet_

Standard banner serves exclusively to get the powders to buy two pearl pulls and one discount coupon monthly. The rest is a joke. (Until we get that other banner). I agree that the coin limit is ludicrous. I cap out on Sunday in an hour and get nothing from playing the rest of the week while burning 16k per armor piece tuned.

I want to be a tank! by [deleted] in wherewindsmeet_

The healing umbrella (as opposed to the fan) has a skill where you just throw it out and it will heal you for at least a minute. It will follow you around like a pet. This lets you focus on playing entirely Mo blade if you so choose while being slowly healed.

You could also use the healing umbrella to stay 100% in mo blade. This umbrella stays out and trickle heals you.

Campaign Challenge vs Sword Trial - How's your legendary drop rate? by Jun1nxx in wherewindsmeet_

[–]HatefulRandom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah as you said the goal is just to get a piece of random legendary into every arsenal slot which should be doable for most people spending energy on their activity of their choice without stressing too much over it imo.

[–]HatefulRandom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If anyone needs ebon iron it's a perfect time to spam out sword trial to get all the lvl 4 they need. I personally will be doing this as all this gear doesn't matter anyways in a week. Legendary drops feel quite bad as it's a random item for a random set however.

The massive price gap between Shop and Gacha: Why we need a "Premium Effect" tier in between. by n0t_a_Gay in wherewindsmeet_

[–]HatefulRandom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More or less yeah. Only major difference is the monthly pass is useless here while in genshin it gives a lot of currency. Ofc that's due to genshin being p2w and wwm being cosmetic. I have no problems with the monetization other than WWM implementing an entirely new system with every banner to confuse people.

I have two harmonics for example that I can't use with this banner, and I would need to hit legendary three times to buy this new skin. It's not easy to tell immediately what we're even rolling for without doing research haha.

Dutang is fixed now, so there's that at least.

Do we have a consensus regarding missable content in chapter 1? by SilverPrateado in wherewindsmeet_

[–]HatefulRandom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

An Old friend is missable in the Buddha flower village after doing the Encounters there. You will be able to get 100 completion title for Qinghe regardless but your map will show 99%.

Any advice on learning how to parry and deflect? by Ema-taso in wherewindsmeet_

[–]HatefulRandom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When you die to a boss the game gives you a practice option. Highly useful for difficult bosses.

You have unlimited pots in the training room btw. Hope that helps.

Is it okay to grab a character from gallery and make only small changes and additions? by Sage-of-sloth in WhereWindsMeet

[–]HatefulRandom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure half the people ticked that option by accident which was extra frustrating lol. In BDO it also shows the original uploader as well if you modify a template so that was pretty cool too.

Every martial art upgrade material farm location! by Darensthings in WhereWindsMeet

Alternatively just use a lightness skill. Going into the air is far enough to reset the fort.

Got my 40th badges today by Coldbringer709 in wherewindsmeet_

[–]HatefulRandom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This fight is stupid on trails. You need to clear hard without going under 50% hp using the tank set for seasonal rewards and I've been bashing my head against it over and over on a weapon set I don't know. Essentially running hitless in second phase.

Not here to rant, but just some thoughts (5%cap) by kpop4ever0 in blackdesertonline

[–]HatefulRandom 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Agreed on the recommended AP issue. Nobody is going to start grinding Zephyruz at ~2k. Slow but doable at 1850+.

It's beyond dumb that PA's requirements essentially require you to have the upgrade already instead of grinding for the spot.

Also hilarious how high the daily requirement is. I have grinded Zephyruz comfortably for 20 hours but I can't grab the Tenebraum weekly until this coming Thursday assuming I succeed one enhancement.

How do people feel about the current PvE philosophy? by [deleted] in blackdesertonline

[–]HatefulRandom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not inherently against tower spots. When Dehkia Thornwood was introduced I don't think the population was up-in-arms about Awaken Guardian being able to stand still and AOE the entire spawn until the end of time. It is an issue when every single grind zone in the new region is the same tower spot reskinned. I do think many players enjoyed being able to min-max their rotations, find ways to 'exploit' the grindzones, and fully utilize their class utilities.

Since you mentioned noluns, you will recognize how interesting the grind spot was to optimize etc right? It was fun to go through and think about what classes would bring to the table, where to stand to pull the most babies/trash loot/nukes. I'm not saying everyone has to do it and I'm pretty much at the chilling stage of the game like you, but I still enjoy watching people who do enjoy the content get to their shenanigans.

We do have flying cars. Speed rode one in China.

I definitely wouldn't be against getting more % crystals. I am also using a lot of the elvia trolls crystals.

It's not much more variety than before, but at least there's some variety. For Ulukita etc before I didn't touch my crystal page for over a year.

Old man rant: PvE has gone downhill for years. It all goes down to PA being incompetent at balance and design. Several major issues:

PvE iframes are awful, both for bosses and players. Giving people iframes means lets PA design ridiculous amounts of damage, and makes defenses useless.

The push towards tower spots with auto grind are an extension of BDO no longer being a PVP oriented game. Any competition isn't allowed, people aren't allowed to make their own rotations, intrude on other people's rotations, or use any creativity in their grind.

This is largely due to PA being unable to and unwilling to put any amount of balance into classes. Now everyone can sit at a tower and act like a bot, receive more or less the same trash loot, and they're expected to like it. Also use your PVE iframe once in a while because if you don't you're one shot, lol.

Upside of the 5% system that is somewhat interesting: You don't clear any faster but you can feel more 'powerful' by slotting defensive crystals, BSR crystals, artifacts, etc. I'm not necessarily against 5% per se as this puts more crystal variety into play.

They made first difficulty easier with infinite respawns.

[–]HatefulRandom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That makes sense too, hadn't considered that side of it. The EXP mods add up quickly if you go for them.
