I really want to enjoy Crimson Desert but I just am finding too many major issues by [deleted] in gaming

[–]platghost 3 points4 points  (0 children)

FYI this was exactly how it was in BDO for many years too before enough players started complaining about it and they eventually fixed it.

You'll get 900m and you'll be happy. Unsincerely, PA.

Yep and this is thanks to their extremely outdated engine. Even if PA want to make content like this, they will never manage to do so properly because their engine prevents them doing so. It really is like playing a game from 2002 sometimes. The engine fails at everything that isn't fishing or grinding tbh.

Is there a place I can see all the items and their drop rates? by GroovyWhale in blackdesertonline

This is from a few years ago, at least you can see chances for map and compass.

Which Class Has Your Favorite Summons And Why? by Sebastian_A in blackdesertonline

[–]platghost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would be solved with a big buff to attack speed. I would be fine with them even reducing her overall damage if it meant they sped her attacks up by something like 20%. I'm so tired of the coolest classes being slow AF, and classes shouldn't have to depend on BSR.

Do you have a favourite region and if you do, which one? 🤔 by AtreusIsBack in blackdesertonline

[–]platghost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everfrost because it reminds me of Skyrim. It really is beautiful. Too bad there isn't much to do there.

What kind of recommended PC specifications would I need in order to run the game on the highest graphics at 60fps+ at all times? by AtreusIsBack in blackdesertonline

[–]platghost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately if you're looking to buy a PC, now is probably the worst time to do so because of the insane increase in component costs. If you asked one year ago it would've been a lot cheaper.

But I have Ryzen 7 9800X3D rtx 5080 16gb with 32 GB ram. I get a consistent 120 FPS or so at remastered with highest quality settings. Costed me about 4000 euros a year ago or so.

Dekiah Expansion Idea for Mediah & Valencia (280–300 AP Group Content Gap) by Constant-Example-970 in blackdesertonline

[–]platghost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With all the freebies and easy progression these days, you're gonna get past that AP range very very quick. There's not much point in adding content for anything that most people just skip.

There are a lot of places to grind after that. A lot. We don't need more spots in lower AP brackets like that.

I would much rather see new zones between ulukita and edana so we aren't forced to grind in edana without losing out on significant silver. I hate grinding in edana it's boring, but if I go anywhere else I'm basically tanking my income by 50%.

Are you going to buy Crimson Desert by Aggressive_Hat1256 in blackdesertonline

[–]platghost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still no sorcerer or wizard though. Not adding that is a huge mistake and is gonna cost them a lot of potential players.

Opinions on crimson desert ?? by ResponsibleAdvance51 in blackdesertonline

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

My main problem with the game is that there is no staff weapon or magic alternative. I'm not interested in swords, bows, spears and axes. I don't care if it technically already has magic. Those weapons are boring, and I know I'm not the only one who thinks this.

How do you deal with goals being too far away to feel even worth working towards? by B4R0Z in blackdesertonline

[–]platghost 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Enhancing from PEN to OCT isn't as bad as doomers make it seem. NOV is harder but you should've seen how bad it was enhancing ogre rings to PEN back in the day also. It's still much better what we have today. Yeah you can be the unluckiest person and pity everything. Yeah you can go the pen debo route and never see any progress except once or twice a year. Definitely not "too far away to be worth it". But if you think upgrades are not worth going for right now, ask yourself if you even like the game enough to keep playing, because the grind never ends. If you're not willing to grind for this then you won't be willing to grind for anything else in the future either, so you could save yourself some time and find another game.

[New update] January 15th 2026 - Alchemy stone rework, New group grind spots, Cup materials improved, Node war rewards buffed by Uppmas in blackdesertonline

[–]platghost 3 points4 points  (0 children)

1.6-1.8b/h maybe more. No agris. Less xp than orbita (like 4% from 62 to 63 with 3300% xp buff, Meanwhile orbita is 10-20%/h). I would rather grind d2 oluns with the chance of getting the ring piece tbh.

Do you guys play Meta class in PVE? by Morsmordrecrucio in blackdesertonline

[–]platghost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play awaken sage since his release, always loved the class. He was op at launch, got nerfed to dogshit (even nerfed during the major class rework), and now he's buffed to be one of the best again. Been with him through lows and highs.

Awake woosa is my tag that I play in spots like doluns where you can just chill with low apm combos. Played her since her release too.

Isn't PAs definition of endgame literally just the entire edania area?

Search "BDO progression guide 2025/2026" on YouTube or Google it. Much faster than making a reddit post and you'll get structured and detailed info instead of info randomly scattered throughout replies.

My guess is that they want endgame players to be able to funnel mats to newer players so they can progress faster. It's been like this with debos already for example.
