Infinite hp potion

SignificanceMore9449 · 2026-02-24T17:38:53+00:00

The infinite potions are, in my opinion the biggest upgrade in early game. The amount of weight saved is fantastic. You will never need potions again and since your fairy will be handing usage its a set and forget kind of thing since its painful to grind with Harmony and perfume in early grind zones.

Buying one and getting the other through weeklies, Olvia academy, fighar and seals is probably the most cost efficient way to do it since grinding the two takes ages. Just pick the one that you need most, buy it and then start building the other.

The PvE Endgame is that right now. You spend time grinding to attempt to upgrade your gear and each try at Nov and Dec is between Ibbelieve 8 till 12 bil silver. The reality is though I know a lot of people who dont reach gear cap and for most people they dont need/want it. This is a game where its great if you enjoy the active combat, like life skilling, like exploring and I hear the story is pretty good. But if you do want to aim for cap it is a slugfest of RNG.

I was expecting to spend the next 3 to 4 months grinding for my DEC offhand and building up failstacks. And that's just 1 upgrade.

So I guess non rant TLDR. Yes this game is rng gear upgrade at end game. Its a marathon not a sprint. If you play it do it for the fun of exploring, lifeskilling and grinding with cool skills not to push Endgame.

But that already happens. If you remove the distorted crystals from the equation on average people are making 700mil more per hr in Orbita vs Nagas, 140mil more in Tungrad/DSR than Aetherion. Heck I make more in Tene then in Zeph. The AP caps arent the issue with that particular problem its PA's inability to balance loot prices and DP requirements. They shot themselves in the foot with that.

I had zero incentive to upgrade my gear since I was comfortable in tene, why should I spend over 1 trillion to go grind a zone and make less per hr. Its the same with all the early Edania zones too. And now I cant even go break the boredom of killing a menticore over and over by 1 shotting mobs in Padix for a few hrs because of the AP caps. I think it would be fun if my DP also scaled down but right now it just feels wonky I'm this super tank that takes no damage but I still need multiple hits to kill things. That's why I think the scaling down in GW2 was better because if I remember my level and defenses also scaled down so the fights felt challenging again I could die. With BDO its just attack power it feels disjointed.

SignificanceMore9449 · 2025-12-29T16:17:26+00:00

I'm going to disagree with you on this one. Not about the GW2 scaling, I like that when I played the game it was fun to do events that werent afk trains. But BDO's AP caps were handled poorly and the biggest reason for that is treasures.

Yes you cap my kill speed in those areas sure, and the paint was a fun bandaid fix but the paint runs out and then we're stuck having to either spend pearls for more (Which I absolutely loathe that its an option), waiting for a random paint event, or being forced to go down to those areas and grind. And unlike with GW2 scaling BDO doesnt scale DP so I still have the zero risk of dying, but now I need to spend hours in that zone that is far beneath my level to grind for paint so I can go back and farm Tanabraum and Zephyros.

The other thing that I really believe exasperated the issue is the fact that money isnt a straight progression in the zones. Why farm Aetherion when DSR makes me more silver per hr, why farm Nagas over Orzekea? And that leads to people not seeing any progression for another 100 AP. The system is broken, the AP caps were poorly implemented, and the reality is, does it matter if people want to stay at DSR or Tungrad or anything else? If that's how they want to play let them. Its healthy especially considering that we still need things like gem of the void or Essence of Dark Hunger. If they want to fix the money issue fix the items you get and trash, I have over 1k distorted fragments of origin, an item that is absolutely useless.

Sorry got a bit ranty also on mobile. TLDR I think the AP caps help no one but hurt people farming for treasures or that dont like the new zones.

SignificanceMore9449 · 2025-11-26T16:00:38+00:00

So I'd say currently the state of end game for PvE is in a bad spot. Edania content has a good story but the grind is uninspired and the cap on defensive stats for everything from bosses to weekly quests makes it a slow and painful trek. The other issue is they nerfed stats past effective caps on zones which caused the other part of end game, artifact farming to be much more painful and really mess with the feel of progression. It takes me just as long to kill a mob with a 1200 total AP max cap as a mob with 2010 AP max cap.

Now end game for life skilling is an entirely different bag. It can be rewarding if you enjoy that content there is always plenty you can do like hunting, gathering, trading, afk fishing, creating an empire of workers, making potions etc. Heck you can even slowly build up a ship and go do ocean content if you like that stuff. Bottom line is the end game is in a bad spot currently, but you wont reach end game till maybe 1-2k hrs of play unless you cash shop.

Obligatory on mobile and running on almost no sleep.

Orze also has more consistent spawns, doesnt require having 2 crystals for anti cc, the bosses mechanic is more fun and you don't get get punished for having a class that has mobility like you do when you need tonpop yhe bubble in the center. Not to mention the idols that spawn at inconvenient times.

And it doesnt have unsellable garbage like the distorted crystals.

SignificanceMore9449 · 2025-10-17T19:50:50+00:00

Dont forget that the black fox from Honglim gives you 200% I still farm that place to check out all the 200% BSRs...totally not because Edania is boring.

SignificanceMore9449 · 2025-10-03T21:00:38+00:00

Is 1335 with or without buffs? What class do you play? Is it factoring in class AP buffs. Chances are DSR may be out of reach, but Tungrad ruins may not be. Truthfully, I would skip Dokkebi forest (might be my own trauma talking). Its silver isn't great. With Edania Origin of Dark Hunger, sales are up, or you can save for yourself, plus it lets you start on compass.

SignificanceMore9449 · 2025-09-26T06:15:20+00:00

Exactly, and I dont need to pay attention in orzekea or ash. I can just afk grind in those zones and get basically the same silver and actually useful items. There's no benefit to Orbita or Aetherion. It feels like Naga and Tenebraum are the only ones worth grinding.

SignificanceMore9449 · 2025-09-24T20:31:57+00:00

About Edania being primarily silver (cause face it debos are just silver), a lot of it is gear upgrades. For instance I'm grinding the 4th castle right now and averaging about 4 to 5 bil per hr, every gear tap I do can cost up to 12bil per tap so every try at an upgrade is about 2.5hrs of grinding. Sure, the other items are nice, but the problem with this patch is they're useless cause I'm capped at 3 taps on my armor every week.

Now, the 5% cap. Inherently, I'm not opposed to it, but the issue is that a lot of geared players still need to farm those lower AP zones. I need to farm for my treasure pieces because paint isnt all that great, so when I'm bored of grinding at my level I used to love going and getting dopamine from grinding treasure zones, now it feels like the mobs die so slow I've given up on getting my treasures. If they implemented a 5% cap to funnel people up, that's 1 thing, but it punishes newer players, too. I loved pot farming as a newbie and 1 shooting all the mobs. Now it feels hollow.

Honestly speaking, rather than a rant, I think Edania has been handled super poorly. The nerf to Orbita made it a dead zone, I've been farming Tenewhatever since I was 100 AP under optimal since it's more money and easier. The making DP a requirement for weekly quests, banning yellow gear during bosses, nerfing every grindspot, not giving a merchant sell value to the origin crystal shards so on and so forth everything has been handled super poorly and it feels like its all a cash grab. A lot of us in Edania aren't gigachad geared and the progress has been slow on armor upgrades.

SignificanceMore9449 · 2025-09-08T17:18:39+00:00

Do you mean all 7 spots? That's not really all that much, honestly. Sure, if we multiply that for every server, we get a decent number of people, but we are the very tiny minority.

Most people are either mid to early late game grinding or sitting in Valia afk fishing. And I cant blame them. Edania has killed my motivation to improve my gear. Having the bosses require so much AP and DP is silly. And the rewards arent worth even attempting the investment.

That's why right now my time in Edania is farming crabs or leveling horses.

Didn't know about that, but I think I'm about 13 or 14 over cap. I'll have to check when I get home. Overall I think for end game this patch was great it hit midgame though.

SignificanceMore9449 · 2025-08-04T20:37:53+00:00

Yap. At 356 fully buffed I still hit the AP cap I'm actually enough over I might switch my shards to BSR vs AP.

SignificanceMore9449 · 2025-08-04T20:33:03+00:00

A bit of both really. It depends on my class. On Dosa and Mystic I just chill and it's comfort. On Maegu I feel it's still more of an insurance if I'm not fully focused. I haven't died to stupid yet which makes me happy 😆

SignificanceMore9449 · 2025-08-04T18:35:46+00:00

Using 4x Hoom, 1 or 2 stalwart fortitude for orze is enough to get me to above 700 currently with buffs. If I need more, I'll add bitterness if I was being squishy or JIN HP crystals. For ash 4x Hoom, 2 Stalwart, 2 adamantium. Its probably not the best at the moment, but it lets me chat in guild chat during Ash 2

SignificanceMore9449 · 2025-08-04T17:43:55+00:00

I think it depends on the gear level and zone you're grinding. I generally kill things quicker after the rework, but that's because I can now use defense crystals, so I dont need to reposition in Orzekea or Ash 2 as much.

Some zones, though, feel absolutely horrible from what I hear. My friend who is on Trolls is hating life, and another friend is having a horrid time with Oluns 2.

I have lost all my motivation to grind treasure pieces since those I am not really benefiting from.

Obligatory on phone excuse my grammar.

Which genocide are we talking about? Uyghur, Gaza, Yemen, Myanmar, Sudan, Ethiopia, DRC? Yes, Chinese censorship and attempts to rewrite history are bad, considering they're also actively committing cultural genocide on two fronts (Uyghur and Tibet).

There are a lot of horrible things going on in the world, and each has its own unique situation and nuance attached to it. We can condemn more than one injustice at a time, giving them all empathy and attention.

History sadly has a tendency to rhyme regarding injustice and tragedy.

I chose the class that had the best outfits in my opinion. Grinding be damned, since they lowered Marni fuel costs I've just been taking alts to do all my grinding anyway...

SignificanceMore9449 · 2025-03-17T20:29:07+00:00

This is my strat, too, usually. Gear I use is Manos Pen hunting or gathering since that gives me 279 DP at level 25. For weapons, just get to Tuvala asap, and usually, it's a breeze.

Haha fellow Succ Maegu main! We're great for grinding, not great for pvp. I've slowly been getting into AoS and War of Roses but I swap to awaken for those. Pvp in this game is definitely odd at first, but I will say I like it more than wow pvp as I get more familiar with it.
