Summer Season Closes

● The Summer Season comes to an end through the 09/28 Maintenance. All Summer Season Characters that have not yet graduated will be converted into normal characters.

– For more information, please check out theManos Gear Patch note – here

Content Changes

● Added a function that allows you to repair durability of your cooking utensils and alchemy tools. You can repair the following tools.

Item Name
Advanced Cooking Utensil
Supreme Cooking Utensil
Advanced Alchemy Tool
Supreme Alchemy Tool

– You can repair the durability of cooking utensils/alchemy tools installed in your residence by selecting the repair function from the interaction ring.

– You must have the appropriate repair tools in your inventory to repair the durability of cooking utensils and alchemy tools. The entire durability can be repaired using one tool.

● Added four types of repair tools appropriate for each installment that you can set up within your residence.

– You can hand over one cooking utensil or alchemy tool with max durability to an NPC in major towns and Velia, and exchange the tool for one repair kit.

※ These items can be stacked, placed into Storage and moved with Storage maids/butlers.

Previously, the residence was crowded with a variety of cooking utensils and alchemy tools, but with the addition of the ability to repair cooking utensil/alchemy tools, you can now install just one tool rather than setting up multiple tools. We hope this opens up options for Adventurers who enjoy cooking/alchemy and decorating their residences.

● Added a filter on the Barter Information window that distinguishes trade information by level.
– By setting the filter to 'All Barters', you can filter items in order by level as was the default prior to the update.
The filter that distinguishes the trade information by level are as follows:
– Normal -> Lv. 1
– Lv. 1 -> Lv. 2
– Lv. 2 -> Lv. 3
– Lv. 3 -> Lv. 4
– Lv. 4 -> Lv. 5
– Normal Barter
– Crow Coin
– All Barters

● A filter function has been added to the Barter Information window that allows you to sort the list according to the number of Barter goods that can be obtained through Bartering.
– This filter only applies to the following Barter offers
– Lv. 1 -> Lv. 2
– Lv. 2 -> Lv. 3
These filters allow you to distinguish barter offers base on the obtainable amount in the following ways.
– More than 1
– 2 or more
– 3 or more
This filter can only be used if the trade information level is set to the following:
– Lv. 1 -> Lv. 2
– Lv. 2 -> Lv. 3
– All Barters

● Added a button that sorts trade routes based by distance closest to your current location on the Barter Information window.
– This function can be used together with the level/quantity filter, allowing the lists to be based on what is closest to you.

●Added a function which allows you to instantly sell trade goods and items through any warehouse.
– The items that can instantly be sold through a storage are as follows:
* Items that can be sold for Silver
* Items that are not Pearl Items
* Gear that is not Enhanced.
※ Please note that items sold in this will will not show up in the repurchase window.

A function that allows you to instantly sell junk items stacked in your warehouse without having to go to a shop was added. Previously, you had to go to a Shop NPC after loading your items on your mount or moving them to your inventory. Now, it will be more convenient since you won't have to go through this whole process. Not only can you use this function to sell your junk items, but you can also instantly sell your sea trade goods. The best function for our Adventurers who enjoy bartering may actually be one where you can instantly sell your trade goods on a ship. However, this function may take a while to develop. It may not be the best, but I hope this newly added function will be at least a little meaningful to those of you who enjoy bartering

● Improved resurrecting in Red Battlefield to automatically resurrect the character in the resurrection area of Red Battlefield if they try to exit the battlefield while they are dead.

● Added different alerts in the 1:1 chat with friends.

– You can use this feature to set individual messenger alerts for each friend in your friend list.

● Added a quest to exchange the accessory obtained from the 'Old Moon Guild's Trade Offer' quest for a different accessory.
– Once you've completed the "[EXC] A New Choice I" quest, you can accept the following "[EXC] A New Choice II" quests from Jetina:

Quest Name Quest Objective Quest Reward
[EXC] A New Choice II Hand over TET (IV) grade accessory from NPC Jetina's Old Moon Guild's Trade Offer content Choose 1 TET (IV) grade

Narc Ear Accessory/Tungrad Earring/Ring of Crescent Guardian)

[EXC] A New Choice II Hand over PEN (V) grade accessory from NPC Jetina's Old Moon Guild's Trade Offer content Choose 1 PEN (V) grade

Narc Ear Accessory/Tungrad Earring/Ring of Crescent Guardian

* You must have the relevant accessory enhanced to TET (IV) or PEN (V) grade in your inventory (unequipped) to proceed with and complete the quests.

* If you've used a reform stone on the relevant accessory, you will need to extract the stone before you can proceed with and complete either of the quests.

* You can complete either the TET (IV) or PEN (V) grade accessory quest once per family.

● Changed the name of the following quest due to the addition of the aforementioned exchange quests involving the accessories obtained from the "Old Moon Guild's Trade Offer" content.

Characters in Black Desert all used different resources. From the fighting spirit of Warriors, to the divine powers of Valkyrie, each character had their own unique characteristics and resources required for skills. With this in mind, potion items that restore these resources were seperated accordingly.

Although natural in concept, new adventurers struggled to intuitively grasp the concept due to variety. With this in mind, and to make things more accessible, all MP/SP/WP recovery items have been reorganized and rolled into one item. When rolling the items together, we used the highest current cooldown and useage effect, and due to this, we have also made improvements to the Odore's Spirit Essence as well.

Meanwhile, to improve the progression of the Infinite HP potion, Ornette's Spirit Essence has been improved, allowing lower grade potions to be crafted when you only have one or two of the required components. These lower grade potions have lower effects, so if you wish to get the most out of your healing item, you will need to get the rest of the materials required.

However, we did not apply the step change for Odore's Spirit essence because the effects of smaller potions can be highly impactful for certain classes that do not require as many resources to perform.

In addition, with the difficulty in obtaining the two items, we are adding Name Engraving to the potions, as well as the tag 'Ancient' being added to the pre-existing Infinite Pots that are in the game. For those who have spent a long time already trying to collect and create them, but are yet to collect the final pieces, there is still chance to obtain the special title, name engraving and the 'Ancient' tag if you complete the Ornette's Spirit Essence and/or the Odore's Spirit Essence before October 27th. Please note that this will only count for those who finish the infinite pots the old way, without the use of the new Items.

● Changed the recovery of Odore's Spirit Essence from 325 MP/SP/WP Recovery to 375 MP/SP/WP Recovery and the cooldown from 6 seconds to 5 seconds, which is the same for the Instant MP Potion (Extra Large).

Before After

● Combined MP, WP, SP Recovery potions into a single item.

– You will no longer be able to purchase WP and SP Recovery potions from Vendors or obtain via Exchange due to the combination of the MP, WP, SP Recovery potions. You can still use the existing WP, SP Recovery potions that you own.

– Changed to recover the proper MP, WP, SP for each class when using one of the MP, WP, SP Recovery potions.

● Changed a text in the item description for Magic Crystal of Infinity – MP Recovery from recover MP to recover MP/WP/SP.

● Changed the cooldown for an herbal juice from 6 seconds to 5 seconds, and changed the Refined Herbal Juice to now recover MP/WP/SP +375 instead of the previous +325.

● Changed the cooldown for WP, SP Recovery potions and Instant MP Recovery potions from 6 seconds to 5 seconds and recovery of Extra Large potions from 325 to 375.

– Changed the sale price of the WP, SP potions listed on the Shop so that they can be sold at the same price that they were purchased at.

● Merindora of Grána has begun to give out Everlasting Water to Adventurers who only have some of the items needed to craft Ornette's Spirit Essence, which include Sherekhan's Panacea, Ron's Tintinnabulum, and Ash Halfmoon Kagtunak.

– You can craft a Blessed Spirit Essence by adding Everlasting Water to Sherekhan's Panacea, Ron's Tintinnabulum, OR Ash Halfmoon Kagtunak.

※ A Spirit Essence with the "Ancient" tag is one crafted with materials obtained from defeating monsters.

– You can craft a Greater Blessed Spirit Essence by combining one of the two crafting materials that remain after crafting Ornette's Spirit Essence with a Blessed Spirit Essence.

Combined Items Result

Blessed Spirit Essence

One of the two remaining pieces from Sherekhan's Panacea, Ron's Tintinnabulum, or Ash Halfmoon Kagtunak after crafting a Blessed Spirit Essence

Arrange into the shape of [-] in your inventory


Greater Blessed Spirit Essence

– You can accept the same quest from which you can craft an Ornette's Spirit Essence by going to Merindora with a Greater Blessed Spirit Essence and the final, remaining material

● Added "Ornette's Spirit Essence," a quest that you can accept from Merindora when you have one of the crafting materials for Greater Blessed Spirit Essence or materials left after crafting Ornette's Spirit Essence in your inventory.

– You can accept the existing quest when you have all of the three types of items: Sherekhan's Panacea, Ron's Tintinnabulum, and Ash Halfmoon Kagtunak.

– If you are doing or have completed one of the two types of quests, you cannot accept a different quest and the rewards will be the same.

● Changed the names of the following items that you can obtain from defeating monsters.

Before After

Ron's Tintinnabulum Ancient Ron's Tintinnabulum
Ash Halfmoon Kagtunak Ancient Ash Halfmoon Kagtunak
Markthanan's Gland Ancient Markthanan's Gland

※ The items you obtain from defeating monsters will have the "Ancient" tag.

※ Materials or Spirit Essences with the "Ancient" tag can only be crafted via items with the "Ancient" tag, and in this case, you can obtain a Spirit Essence with the "Ancient" tag.

For instance, when crafting an Ancient Blessed Spirit Essence by combining an Ancient Sherekhan's Panacea with Everlasting Water, you can use an Ancient Ron's Tintinnabulum to craft it. However, you cannot use a Ron's Tintinnabulum without the "Ancient" tag to craft an Ancient Blessed Spirit Essence.

You can only craft a Spirit Essence without the 'Ancient' tag with a material or Spirit Essence without the 'Ancient' tag

However, if you want to craft the Spirit Essence mentioned above by combining items both with and without the  'Ancient' Tag, you can exchange your item for an 'Ancient' item by going to Merindora of Grana. Since you would not have an Ornette's Spirit Essence crafted from an Ancient Item, you cannot obtain a 'Dawnwish Petal' or a 'Duskwish Petal'

For example, when you want to craft an Ornette's Spirit Essence with a Ron's Tintinnabulum without the "Ancient" tag while having an Ancient Ash Halfmoon Kagtunak and an Ancient Sherekhan's Panacea in your inventory, you can go to the NPC Merindora by Exchanging them for one without the "Ancient" tag.

● You can exchange an 'Ancient' item for one without the tag by going to Merindora of Grana.

Required Item Exchanged Item
Ancient Sherekhan's Panacea Sherekhan's Panacea
Ancient Valtarra's Clairvoyance Valtarra's Clairvoyance

We felt that there were too many lootable item types from the Calpheon and Mediah Territories. These items, which were also not always immediately necessary when you obntained them, would only serve as an inconvenience as they took up precious inventory space. To address this matter, we went about organizing the types of loot that dropped in these regions.

We've improved the vendor items that drop from Valencia monsters by introducing new versions of these items.

When setting forth on their seasonal adventure, Valencia has been a testing ground for many adventurers to witness their growth with their Tuvala gear equipped, and yet, the types of vendor items that drop from these regions were rather unbalanced. Thus, we adjusted the value of vendor items that drop from defeating monsters in the above regions. For the sake of New Adventurers who may not have "Item Collection Increase Scrolls" readily available, we made sure that the basic vendor items items have a 100% guaranteed drop rate.
