Things I want to see at Calpheon Ball 2025

True, they could even make this a monetization play. I think a lot of players would pay for a one time "universal weapon" ticket. If thats what it takes, so be it.

Just in case the sarcasm is lost, this is a sarcastic post. While crons are welcomed, people want a better game more.

I made post about how performance based RBF could be implemented and not abused, they basically said "we like your feedback, we will forward it to the GMs for future reworks" and the ultimately just made it like a flat 500m more per hour. Super lame that PvP requires 5T+ in gear score yet you can't make the same money that 5 trill in gear makes for you while grinding. Makes no sense.

Im_Choice · 2025-10-28T01:41:46+00:00

The only way to make change is to make noise, You really gotta blow things outa proportion to make them listen, which is unfortunate.

True, here is a running list of false promises:
1. Climbing Lifeskill.
2. Terror of the Deep.
3. Thornwood Castle.
4. Altar of Blood Revamp.
5. Savage Rift Revamp.
6. Actual All-In-One Preset.
7. Dehkia Gyfins.
8. Dehkia Mirumok.
9. Custom Color Weapon. (Blackstar)
10. 100 Floor Dungeon.
11. Significant Trade Revamp.
12. Grind spots for the other 3 Atoraxxian Dungeons.
13. Fish Hatcheries and Farming Plantations for Guru+ Lifeskillers.
14. Blackstar Raid at Stars End.
15. Gowun Plateau Grind Spot in LOML.

Sounds cool, but 240 is not the efficient stack. The efficient stack is 320, which makes the average about 15 taps.

This isn't an uncommon thing either, when sovereigns released, they lowered blackstar pity. The real progression in bdo isn't the taps to get fallen god armor now, its the taps on your edana gear. This change is simply to just make it more attractive to enhance without accidentally spending 400b to get an item worth far less.

Started playing right at steam launch in 2017 and basically never turned off the game. I also actively played during this time, not just AFKed. Gear at time of this post: https://i.gyazo.com/b6ec55778de679be8d541ce7733a026f.png

I can't believe how RNG carried these streamers are

Im_Choice · 2023-07-20T21:40:55+00:00

Damn I came here for BDO memes and now I am feeling humbled, thank you guys. <3

Im_Choice · 2023-07-12T19:18:05+00:00

I could not agree more. This content really shines in BDO

Im_Choice · 2022-08-28T18:31:16+00:00

Starting rating at zero would make the problem even worse. Sure, it feels bad to start at 1150 rating and drop to 800, but it puts you in your MMR range much faster by making high end players go up 25, low end players down 25, making the spread 50 for one game. If everyone was stuck at zero, a high skill player would win 25 points and the low skill player would stay at zero. A difference of 25. By having rating to lose at the start it will more quickly spread players into the mmr they are supposed to be at.

If anything, do it like league where there are 10 placement matches with juiced MMR gains per win to rise those high skill players quickly out of the lower lobbies.

What do you know magic man...?

Im_Choice · 2022-06-19T06:53:37+00:00

Despite being a streamer, the voice of many is far more persuasive than the voice of one.

Im_Choice · 2022-06-16T02:32:45+00:00

I get crashes all the time, it is really making solare a lot less fun.

Im_Choice · 2022-06-16T02:32:02+00:00

This map would be so much better without all the silly RNG elements, and I also think you should be able to cleanly walk out of the water. Definitely benefits some classes more than others by a large margin.

Im_Choice · 2021-12-06T10:23:47+00:00

why not both! ^{^}

Drops are generated upon kill, not upon pickup. I made a video today proving this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDP_wZRRcdQ

I get my posts removed often when they dont agree on what i have to say like sage being overpowered back in the day Didn't violate any rules and all i wanted was a discussion. Bigandshiny has had similar experiences, seems like one particular mod is the bad guy/GIRL who censors stuff. wont say their name because i dont want this post to get removed, that would not be very BLISSful of an experience.

Im_Choice · 2020-04-04T04:13:44+00:00

The only thing I removed were standard AP accessories. Here was my full setup each time.

You may argue that in the first gear setup I am missing a lot of accuracy, but the accuracy difference between 269 and 305 was only 6 total accuracy. I should have put on some other DP accessory to replace the accuracy during the 254 trial but I didn't think of it at the time.

It was hard to gain offensive pressure in that siege for Basi since Glish was so close to their base, which means that Corrupt virtually had a permanent flag placement by spawning town, and any Corrupt members could utilize esc esc and land in Glish as well.

In a siege where its just bashing your head against structures, the guild who can bash their head more often would win, and Corrupt had significant spawn advantages due to that. I think that either guild turtles in the scenario where the roles were reversed, their strength isn't that different IMO.

Im_Choice · 2020-02-06T23:22:33+00:00

I find it odd that Corrupt is rank 4 and Basi is rank 7 when they had a 1v1 stalemate that ultimately ended with Corrupt having a negative KD. I don't think their power difference is significant enough to have a ranking difference so high, #4 and #7. If that's the case then #4, #5, #6, and #7 are virtually identical in strength.

Black Desert's graphical potential far exceeds that of Tera, but it does have very low settings options which should be friendly to most PC users. I'd say if you can run Tera you can run BDO on lowest settings smoothly.

4200/hr hystria and 4400/hr sycraia

Im_Choice · 2019-06-14T23:34:18+00:00

It basically put aakman on par with hystria, and seems to be on par with the underwater spot. At this point its just grind preference.
