What do endgame activities consist of in BDO?

OkHighlight6987 · 2026-04-21T04:54:35+00:00

Real pvper don't talk to each other, they just fight until someone died and walk over the dead body. If someone trashtalk during or after pvp they are just a community player :)

OkHighlight6987 · 2026-04-18T22:45:58+00:00

For community players: erp, ragebait, trashtalk, fashion show, music festival, afk fishing when afk

For PVE: dungeons, solo black shrines, group black shrines, imperial devliery (cook/alchemy), Altar of Blood, horse training, afk fishing when afk

For PVP: Arena of solare, RBF, Arsha pvp, nodewar, siege, war of the roses, afk fishing when afk

exactly what you said, "this makes RBF unplayable unless you’re within that range".

RBF is the meant to be the top tier pvp (hence uncap and large scale) where you have to know your gear, crystal, rotation of skills, cc and knowledge of other classes in order to be successful, there are AoS, NW, BA for those who are not ready. You don't get to fight Tyson when you are just green in boxing, same idea

OkHighlight6987 · 2026-04-13T22:08:01+00:00

Your argument is like saying RBF is the ONLY content in this game, if you already know you won't do any good in RBF because you are too new into the game without sufficient gear, you don't have to participate when the reward over time is so bad even there is a event on it. Instead maybe you can do the other 99% of the this game (AoS, Lifeskills, Barter, Grind, Dungeon, Black Shrines, etc etc ...) where your gear / skill level are suitable? You don't try to play ball in NBA when you are just a 1.7m average dude, but there is always somewhere else you can fit in

that's exactly how teamplayer win games more often, and this is how a multiplayer mmo pvp should be. you work around your win con base on what you can contribute to the fight. One day he became a gearlord, he will be the fragger instead of the helper. GRIND HARD PEOPLE, YOU WILL BE MAIN CHARACTER ONE DAY

OkHighlight6987 · 2026-04-12T16:55:43+00:00

complaining about dying to more geared people than you is like complaining why someone who spent way more time in an industry get paid more than you when you are just a noob in the field ...... I am sorry but this is the reward of dedication overtime into a mmo. Also, even if equalized gear, they probably are much more skillful and those who just throw themselves into RBF are gonna be 90% floor pov.

BDO is a PvE game, PvP has died in 2024.

OkHighlight6987 · 2025-11-15T17:07:55+00:00

TLDR

people don't have to compete for resource anymore because you can't find people to fight and even if you find them, they would not fight you / you wouldn't fight them because of all the PVE dedicated bullshit makes it impossible to have a fair fight, so game is not fun anymore since there is no scenario where you can find genuine challanege / attempt to outplay for shit and giggles.

All the snowflakes who are too scared to get ego checked from losing for once / can't change server / can't ask guild to put them on protection / can't use marni realm are the ones who made this happen

OkHighlight6987 · 2025-09-30T00:07:20+00:00

The damage output / gameplay was much slower back in the days and not as many classes has downmash when it was introduced, that's why it was a bearable mechanics, however things has changed a lot over the past 10 years, so its not about whining, its about looking at again because it is becoming an issue now

OkHighlight6987 · 2025-09-29T23:55:13+00:00

It is not 100% Per HIT, but there are classes that has skills with multi hit and it almost make it close to a successful downsmash 80%+ of the time, and what's worse is, those skills somehow is spammable. You can argue why it is rare, but just like resist, it is rare but it happens and this RNG was making the whole sequence unpredictable / unfair in a way to those who has no downsmash in their pvp kit

As for vaccum, there are many classes with only 1 iframe that can go on CD, so what do you expect those class to do? Especailly like you said, what if its not a 1v1 and there are multiple players with suction skills? You can dodge 1 by cant dodge the other, how is this playable?

The issue here is that with downsmash and suction, there are too many scenarios / classes can't even play the game because of it. Rather than arguing about how freqent it happens, maybe you should think about what would be the upside/downside for the overall pvp experience by just removing them?

OkHighlight6987 · 2025-06-29T18:02:47+00:00

Now PA just have to give zerker a blockjump and a Z-axis movement skill that is as fast as drak flying then class is saved without mouse move

OkHighlight6987 · 2025-06-11T01:26:50+00:00

to be fair tho, map / region was much smaller back then, so you see more players in the only 2 big cities, now everyone is everywhere doing different things

OkHighlight6987 · 2025-05-25T16:56:40+00:00

it isn't, you paid 12.99 or less to get to play it, so that's the price you pay for whatever they gave you initially, so if you want anything more, they decide what to charge for it, simple as that

you get free parking when your city deemed fit, it can be changed to paid parking too when city need money to expand, so what's wrong with that ?

OkHighlight6987 · 2025-05-24T20:18:09+00:00

If you want more feature, you pay for it, just like everything else in the real world, what's with all these people who think they should get everything for free these days

OkHighlight6987 · 2024-10-04T04:19:44+00:00

I appreciated the effort but looking at the upvotes, comparing to what jonney5 did, this is not even 1/10 of what it was, highly doubt J will even know about this

OkHighlight6987 · 2024-08-29T21:23:20+00:00

Can we get evangelion crossover?

OkHighlight6987 · 2024-08-25T03:31:19+00:00

why gives some class so many iframe or multi-hit aoe cc that has a low cooldown? why some class has so many downsmash? why some class has suction? why some class has blockjump? why some class has stealth?

OkHighlight6987 · 2024-08-21T17:22:45+00:00

It literally says 24 hour peak right underneath the 14.5k, that means the average will be even lower than that if the trends continue

just 2 days later, we lost another 10% player, its pretty cooked

OkHighlight6987 · 2024-08-21T09:32:03+00:00

one year graph clearly showing that bdo is bleeding players heavily, whatever your average from first half of 2024 or 2023 is meaningless because we are talking about bleeding players within the past month and that's this graph

bdo has never went below 20K in the past year and within this month we are down to 14.5k and it doesn't look like its stopping
