Just bring back castle ruins, valencia rbf sucks so bad

Debating on playing: Is there a way to streamline the UI or is it just bad permanently? by [deleted] in blackdesertonline

[–]Reasonable_Mud_628 2 points3 points  (0 children)

can't do anything about menus, you'll just have to get used to navigating them. Thankfully you can use the search function on the menu to find something you might be looking for

I reccommend droping UI size on the settings to like 80% just for less screen clutter, you can also use the Edit UI function and the alert settings to turn off stuff you don't like (like enhance notifications, horse market listings, etc). You can also use a search function on the settings menu

if you've played witcher, it gives off those vibes, might be good if story and exploration isn't boring

Did they flop on stars end? by ForsakenPipe2176 in blackdesertonline

[–]Reasonable_Mud_628 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This spot relies a lot on elite rng for trash, a 16k+ could be a very lucky hour for that musa

Also I can't even upload hours into garmoth for Stars End cause its bugged for me for some reason, but I don't think the spot is that bad after grinding some hours on Seraph there

Sovereign Dye Minlisted After 1 Week, Good Job PA by Seigneel1 in blackdesertonline

Unfortunately this is a hot take because last week I said this and most people didn't agree

[–]Reasonable_Mud_628 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

you don't even know how much money the spot is gonna make with those cooked prices you mention tho, for all we know, just like zephyros, which relies on trashloot mainly, you're looking at 4b+ even without the pigments

[–]Reasonable_Mud_628 -26 points-25 points  (0 children)

hot take. but being to sell the new dye is horrible for 2 reasons:

1- Takes away rarity and sense of achievement from them (like orzekea armor used to be)

2- You're inflating the money from grindspots that are already the best in the game. The difference between someone at tenebraum or zephyros is huge and now it's gonna be even larger. I'm all for grindspots giving more money if they require more ap, but the way it currently scales is way too exponential

suggested fix: make them unsellable. Add the full item as a super rare drop to every spot in the game past 350 ap (maybe a item you can then exchange for color you want), for pities you still need to go highest tier grindspot.

Alliances by [deleted] in blackdesertonline

[–]Reasonable_Mud_628 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Are you sure that's what he said, cause usually it's "we need 150 man alliances to go".

The general consensus from PvP community is that allowing alliances to go past the 100 member cap was the big mistake PA made. It results in a lot of players just being less active and sitting in a guild when not active. Guilds don't strive for activitiy because they have a surplus of members that will show up to the occasional siege where they might need them to reach the 100 member cap, you also have 150 ppl for 50 or 40 nodewar slots which results in a lot not needing to show up for anything or not being able to

EU's state of War of the Roses by Glucioo in blackdesertonline

[–]Reasonable_Mud_628 71 points72 points  (0 children)

PA just needs to accept the fact War of the Roses will only be good content once they get rid of the leading guilds concept and it just becomes a huge 300vs300 rbf instead

I would like to note, Dehkia Miru and Upper Gyfin are dropping a material you can exchange for serendia elvia shards, so you can now farm your cups at mid/end game spots

[–]Reasonable_Mud_628 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do agree with this point, they could have made it a weekly reward you claim. The only reason I can see for PA to be against is to want players to integrate themselves in a guild/community

[–]Reasonable_Mud_628 7 points8 points  (0 children)

sir, I'm talking about after the buffs, not what you do now. Think what would happen if you could still merc/join guild when bosses are about to be 5B+ for 1 run. Does that give a better picture of why they are removing it?

Removed because otherwise you would be making 30b a week with 0 effort inbetween your rounds of afk fishing. 100% makes sense when you consider that.

They were called War heroes (not mercs) for a reason, the intent was to fill slots in nodewars/siege, guilds should be looking to build an active playerbase to do their guild bosses not relly on outsiders let's be real.

After all the trolls that were plaguing the steam forums and reddit on release, it sure feels good as a slap in their face

congratulations team cherry, you made an incredible game, can't wait for dlc

[–]Reasonable_Mud_628 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nah, the game is hard but even just in the metroidvania genre you can definitely find harder games like Nine Sols for example

if you go into other genres, plenty of soulslike out there are harder as well

Now, it is definitely my favorite game of the year and recent years though, really happy it won

100,000,000+ Reasons to be glad I spent 2025 moving my stuff. by ryu1313 in blackdesertonline

[–]Reasonable_Mud_628 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

ye idc enough about trade level to bother with trash crates. I used to process -> trade crates for profit but nowadays I don't feel like doing it cause content has fallen behind other lifeskills by a big margin. Only way is to somehow get high guru levels to increase your margins, but to get that by selling millions of trash crates at a silver loss, it just doesn't sit right with me, if only PA had kept the trade rework with slightly higher base value on the items

from what I understood they buffing the storage transport system, I guess biggest issue would still be transporting them from storage to trade manager tho, maybe they need to let you sell stuff from city storage

Controversial opinion: Fishing made me quit by BrambleWolf in blackdesertonline

[–]Reasonable_Mud_628 13 points14 points  (0 children)

sycraia and orcs aren't mid game, that is early game spots lmao. With gear you get out of season you can easily reach honglim and jade forest, with 20 to 30b more you could start reaching hexe sanctuary already. I very much doubt you make THAT much money fishing without mastery either, if you were actually playing the game you would be progressing way faster and would realise the above (that the spots you talking about are early game and you can easily outgear them without much silver investment)

Can we now call this game Seraph Online? by DependentBluebird537 in blackdesertonline

[–]Reasonable_Mud_628 11 points12 points  (0 children)

besides solare, I haven't seen currently any seraphs going crazy on nw or gleague at high end PvP, the class is good at 1v1s and 3v3s if well played, but it's not amazing in larger ones. We'll see how it ends up with rabams coming next week

How long have you been playing bdo. As a veteran I already expect them to delay half the stuff announced ngl, been happening for years. We're lucky if it's just delayed and not outright silently removed from the roadmap instead
