[h3]Ashen wings that can incinerate fear itself.
Destruction takes flight, igniting the frozen sky.[/h3]

"The Ynix.
A flame that can consume even the gods...
How much of its overflowing power can a mere mortal bear?
O daughter of mine.
greed is the source of wrath...
And that flame which fuels it must be extinguished.
Only then will the long-lost paradise of dragons return."

Paradise.
A place so unattainable, it may as well not have existed.

Heeding the deep and somber voice,
I walked, and I walked, along an endless cliffside path,
gathering bones upon bones of my fallen kin.

On this path bereft of color and life, I often wished to hurl myself off its edge,
soaring triumphantly into the sky, a reminder I yet lived, however...

"Unfurling your wings means death.
For that brutal tyrant still reigns the skies."

Whenever such thoughts came to me, they echoed in a voice not my own,
an unsought and unchecked edict.

Fettered wings are nothing more than a blight upon one’s back.

.
.
.

For so long, Dragons were pinned beneath the tyrant’s claw,
until a voice, steeped in malevolence, called out from that bitter path’s end:

"Build your paradise upon my body.
With my death, I will usher in the ruination of the golden mountain."

A shriek rang out, and a brilliant ray of light, puncturing a small hole,
like the pupil of an eye, in the barrier that marked this bitter path’s end.

The aperture dilated, growing brighter as the barrier crumbled away.
Someone was waiting there, with arms outstretched.
Was she the one who led us here?
My heart pounded with excitement...

"Come, frail Dragon offspring."

The air was thick with the stench of blood that flowed from her jaws, torn to the ear.
It was the blood of my dead kin, interwoven with their resentment, their hatred, their tears;
The same kin I had tirelessly comforted.
Etched in this torrent of blood were the final memories of my kind.
Things I’ve never seen, heard, or experienced, but somehow, I was present in them all.

"I am the seventh witch of Eternal Winter, Erethea."
"Tell me, how many dragon hearts have been pierced by the power of erasure,
which could wash away even the fear of the one you claim a tyrant?"

Her body in tatters,
and through coughing fits of blood,
her hoarse voice pealed mirthfully at some unknown joy.

"Come. tear out my heart and consume it.
It’s been sweetened with the hatred of countless, fallen Dragons."

The witch’s laugher reignited the hunger within them.
No one asked why she chose this death.
Everyone sought to sate their thirst for vengeance.

The feast was a blur of teeth and sinew,
but when I came to my senses, I saw us reflected in her empty eyes.
In my mouth, I held her still-beating heart.

"It is done, child. My vengeance... will live on eternally."

Not a single scream had left her lips,
as the witch lay lifeless, seemingly mocking us with her grin.
Was it her defiance that only added to our anger?
My heart began to race uncontrollably.

“Take to the skies, by my heart's might.
Through your eyes shall I witness the golden mount's ruin.”

Now, with my wings no longer bound,
they slowly unfurl, as I gaze readily toward the edge.
The winds whirl against my skin, beckoning me beneath the blinding light.
Frustration, despair, and the faint allure of paradise tickle my nose.

"Proclaim defiantly, to the incarnation of Labreska, that a new era has dawned.
With the power of erasure, usher in the ruination of the golden mountain."

With the whispers of the being, black-winged like us, less one eye, still echoing in my head,
I stood at the cliff’s precipice with wings spread wide.

The moment of flight that had flashed countless times in my mind.
A burning thirst, ignited by the winds of freedom in the dazzling sky.

"Come. Start your flight of destruction, The lost paradise of the dragons awaits."

[h2]Drakania Awakening Weapon: Trion[/h2]



Meaning spear in the tongue of dragons, Trion is Drakania’s exclusive weapon, and it takes the form of two spears.

At first glance, it looks like a normal weapon, but it transforms into a completely different state when wielded by Drakania.
Thanks to Erethea’s power, Drakania can uniquely switch between “Hexeblood” and “Dragonblood” states.
Her “Hexeblood” state can be seen as her human form, in which she expertly wields both trion spears to stab and slash her enemies. While in her “dragonblood” state, her combat style is based on a “dragon form.” In this state, the trion in her left hand takes the shape of a dragon’s horn, allowing her to crush enemies or brace herself with its heft.

You can say that only Drakania can wield the trion.

💬 Our combat direction for Awakening Drakania was developed around her wielding two spears. We chose this type of weapon as we felt that it would be the best match for her concept and story, giving Adventurer’s feeling of wielding a “dragon’s might.” Her combat style is largely divided into two styles, Hexeblood and Dragonblood. She can switch back and forth between both, and her combat style will differ depending on her state.

In her Hexeblood state, she wields two smaller spears to unleash a barrage of quick and agile attacks. When Drakania was released, we saw some feedback that while her concept was good, her slower speed was disappointing. That’s why we wanted to provide a more agile combat style with her Awakening in sharp contrast with her Succession.
On the other hand, her Dragonblood state emphasizes her draconic nature in the form of destructive power unlike the speed of her Hexeblood state. In this form, Drakania’s left-hand spear is transformed into a dragon’s massive horn, and her dragon aspect can be seen in her skills.

Differing from our existing classes, we started developing Awakening Drakania after the release of her Succession. As this was a new direction for us and with so many people eagerly waiting for its release, we’re thrilled to be able to present you with this announcement. We hope you enjoy it.

Thank you.

Thank you for your patience.[/h3] 

Greetings Adventurers,

Here are the latest update details for Black Desert Online on July 13, 2022 (Wed).

[h3]Special & Regular Barter Improvements[/h3]

Special Barters were added to provide exciting opportunities through bartering. Therefore, we have updated the list of items and barters available via special barters to reinstill the excitement.

● There are now more items to choose from Special Barter.
- More items can be exchanged by handing over trade goods like a gold bar or rare accessories to the Barterer.
● Adding the following items that can be obtained from Special Barter:


● Changed the list of necessary items for Special Barter:

* Removed the following trade items from the list for Special Barter:

* Special Barter-related changes apply only to Special Barter items after the update.

● Reduced the rate of ship upgrade materials for Special Barter when Barter quantity is limited.
● Increased the Crow Coin Exchange list and quantity that can be obtained from Special Barter.


● Changed Barter Support Box that can be obtained from Explore within the Anchor menu.

Bartering on Invernen Island and Delinghart Island was initially designed for the exchange of materials and luxury land goods. However, to better reflect the current state of Black Desert, we have decided to update the items available at these locations. We made Verdant Black Stones more accessible for Adventurers starting their ocean voyage, and adjusted bartering options for veteran sailors to make it easier to obtain higher grade enhancement materials as well as Crow Coins.

● The following items can now be exchanged when you refresh barter on Invernen Island and Delinghard Island.
- Invernen Island: Changed 20 Trade Goods. Brilliant Rock Salt Ingot and Brilliant Pearl Shard can still be exchanged.
- Delinghart Island: Changed 40 Trade Goods.

* Example) Even if the accumulated Barter Count is over 10,000, it won't guarantee that the option of exchanging for Crow Coins will appear even after the Barter list has refreshed. Verdant Black Stones or Fiery Black Stones will appear according to a set probability.

[h3]Paradise Lost[/h3]

● Occlein at Serendia Shrine is seeking the aid of Adventurers to investigate rumors surrounding a certain "paradise of winds."
- You can accept this questline through the Black Spirit (,) under the Event tab listed as "[Paradise Lost]."
- If you proceed through the questline as a Drakania character, you'll be able to read some of the writings written in the dragon tongue of Drakanic in the Traces of Brimbolt found throughout Serendia Shrine.
- Obtain the title "Unforgettable" once you complete the final quest.

* Accept the "[Paradise Lost] Rumblings of Paradise" quest via the Black Spirit (,), then head over to Occlein at the Serendia Shrine!

"[Paradise Lost] Rumblings of Paradise" Questline
* This questline requires you to complete each quest in order.
* Available once per Family.
* Available in the Quests (O) - New tab until August 3, 2022, where you will still be able to proceed with the quest via the Black Spirit.

Quest Reward Items

[h3]Character[/h3]

We improved Succession Maehwa to better utilize her Stamina and the Red Blade.

Her previous iteration of the Red Blade was tied to using Prime: Decapitation, which made it difficult to activate the Red Blade at will. Now, when you now use Maehwa's Will with 2 Red Petals, you will gain an additional Red Petal, making it easier to activate the Red Blade. Blind Slash will now also spend WP instead of Stamina, which we felt would better benefit her combat prowess.
Lastly, while Maehwa: Ascension to Heaven did improve the cast time of Prime: Red Moon, we felt it somewhat lacking, especially since you couldn't combo into other skills until Prime: Red Moon's attack had ended. Now if you have learned Maehwa: Ascension to Heaven, you can now combo into Whirlwind Cut, Decapitation, and Prime: Petal Swirl during Prime: Red Moon, adding the option of quickly comboing into other skills after applying the skill's Floating debuff.

Awakening Maehwa was improved to deal critical damage at crucial moments, with a focus on the Petal Swirl skill. The skill's innate Accuracy buff has been reduced, but now using the skill will grant All Accuracy +15% for 10 seconds, thus making it a better skill to compliment others. (The Movement/Attack Speed and Evasion reduction debuffs have also been removed, accordingly.) To make sure these changes would further complement other skills, we reduced the cooldown times of Moonrise, Flow: Cloud Stab, and Flow: Moonlight Dash, while also adding a Critical Hit Rate +25% buff (PvP only) to Flow: Frostflower. Finally, we changed Absolute: Red Moon so you can now use the skill with your awakening weapon, and its visual effects have been changed accordingly.

Succession
● Blind Slash
- Changed the consumed resource: 100 Stamina → 20 to 50 WP (based on skill level)
● Maehwa's Will
- Added a skill effect: If used with 2 Red Petals, gain 1 Red Petal
● Prime: Red Moon
- Improved combo: Now combos into Whirlwind Cut
● Maehwa: Ascension to Heaven
- Improved combo: Learning the skill now lets you combo into Whirlwind Cut, Decapitation, and Prime: Sticky Snowflake from Prime: Red Moon
- Fixed the issue where Prime: Red Moon's last attack damage was not being applied upon learning the skill.

Awakening
● Full Moon Wall
- Added a skill use effect: All DP +20 for 10 sec
● Ice Fang
- Removed a skill use effect: All DP +20 for 10 sec
- Added a skill hit effect: Movement, Casting, and Attack Speeds -20% for 10 sec
● Sticky Snowflake
- Changed the cooldown: 17/17/16/15 sec → 13/12/11/10 sec
- Changed the accuracy buff: +50% → +20%
- Added a skill use effect: All Accuracy +15% for 10 sec
- Removed a skill hit effect: Movement and Attack Speeds -20% for 10 sec
- Removed a skill hit effect: Evasion Rate -3% for 10 sec
- Changed the PvP Damage Reduction: 54% / 54% / 42.5% / 42.5% → 30%
● Moonrise
- Added a skill hit effect: All Evasion Rate -9% for 10 sec
- (IV) Changed the cooldown: 9 sec → 8 sec
● Flow: Cloud Stab
- Changed the cooldown: 9 sec → 8 sec
● Flow: Moonlight Dash
- Changed the cooldown: 9 sec → 7 sec
● Oppression
- Changed the skill hit effect: All DP -20 for 10 sec → All DP -30 for 10 sec
● Flow: Frostflower
- Added the skill effect: Critical Hit Rate +25% (self only)
● Petal Bloom
- Changed the PvP Damage Reduction: 59.3% → 50%
● Changed the following Maehwa class skill names:
- Sticky Snowflake to Petal Swirl.
- Prime: Sticky Snowflake to Prime: Petal Swirl.
- New Year's Eve to Coldsnap.
- Reverse Scale to Moonbreak.
- Stigma to Frostfeint.
- General Apricot to General's Might.
● Absolute: Red Moon
- Changed to be usable with your kerispear.

Righteous Smite's cast time and projectile speed were deliberately made slow due to its potential to inflict a large amount of damage with your greatbow. Therefore, we decided to further bolster that potential by increasing its damage in PvP. Marked Bloom was a skill without any defensive or debuff effects, so we decided to strengthen its concept as a powerful skill by adjusting the number of targets hit by it. Lastly, for Luthraghon's Call, we felt many Archers were left somewhat exposed once the Forward Guard effect while charging would end. Now Archers can cast this skill in peace, knowing that the Forward Guard effect will last even after you finish charging the skill.

● Righteous Smite
- Changed the PvP Damage Reduction: 45% → 34%
● Marked Bloom
- Changed the reduced number of targets for PvP: -3 targets → -1 target
● Luthraghon's Call
- Changed the Forward Guard effect: Forward Guard while charging → Forward Guard even after charging is complete

Succession Sage is known to have an arsenal of skills with long cast times that inflict damage over a large area and apply debuffs such as DP and Evasion reduction on hits. However, such long cast times were being punished particularly in PvP. Thus, to increase the lethality of his skill hits, we increased his PvP damage for major skills such as Prime: Ator's Mark, Prime: Spatial Collapse, and Prime: Ator's Energy, as well as improving the efficiency of using Prime: Spatial Collapse, Prime: Ator's Mark, and Void Gateways with Rift Chain. Lastly, we added a visual effect to disguise the actual trajectory of the Sage when using Rift Chain, making it more difficult to predict his movements.

Awakening Sage saw a similar change regarding his attack damage. Firstly, when comboing from Divine Executioner into Flow: Judgment, the previous version had the spear bolt attack thrown midair, smash attack, and the following spear bolt attack damage all around the same figures. We decided to bolster these numbers by increasing the number of targets hit by the 2nd (smash) attack, while still retaining the number of targets hit at the moment of the smash attack's initial contact, thus greatly increasing the lethal potential of this skill. In addition, for Lightning Prison, we decided to greatly increase its PvP damage to make it regarded as a powerful skill on its own. (However, do note that we felt the Critical Hit Rate +100% buff was excessive to restore.) Lastly, Spear Bolt previously only activated faster when used after Shock Relay, but it's now been improved to activate instantly after certain skills without any defensive effects, which we hope will grant a variety of new opening moves for our Sage Adventurers.

Succession
● Prime: Form Shift
- Fixed the motion to appear more natural when comboing into Rift Chain in the same direction as the skill.
● Void Gateways, Prime: Void Gateways
- Increased the activation speed when attacking by comboing with Rift Chain.
● Prime: Ator's Mark
- Changed the PvP Damage Reduction: 45% → 34%
● Prime: Spatial Collapse
- Changed the PvP Damage Reduction: 55% → 44%
● Prime: Ator's Energy
- Changed the PvP Damage Reduction. 45% → 34%
● Rift Chain
- Improved the period during the skill where it is possible to combo into Prime: Spatial Collapse or Prime: Ator's Mark.
● Prime: Rift Chain
- Improved to display an illusion moving in the opposite direction when using the skill.

Awakening
● Lightning Prison
- Changed the PvP Damage Reduction: 50% → 37%
● Flow: Judgment
- Changed the number of hits for attack 1, 2, and last attacks.
* Attack 1: Applies Divine Executioner skill damage x 4 → Applies Divine Executioner skill damage x 2
* Attack 2: Applies Divine Executioner skill damage x 3 → Applies Divine Executioner skill damage x 7
* Last Attack: Applies Divine Executioner skill damage x 3 → Applies Divine Executioner skill damage x 1
● Spear Bolt
- Increased the combo speed from Chain Lightning and Lightning Surge.

A wave of changes is coming in for Corsair in this week’s update.

First off, the Succession mermaid skills previously had their defensive effect adjusted. In this update, additional changes were made for better adaptability in PvP situations.
Prime: Whirling Slash defensive effect was changed from “Super Armor while moving” to “Invincible -> Super Armor while moving” and Prime: Storming Gale was given the “Forward Guard during the skill” effect. We believe these changes will make her Succession combat a lot more flexible than before. Furthermore, the combo Prime: Wipe Out > Overflow was improved and the distance traveled with Prime: Mareca: Sea Stroll was increased to improve its approach capabilities.

As for her Awakening, we added a new skill called Tide-splitter Patraca. This skill was designed to be used when she is in need of a quick defense, so it has the effect “Invincible at the start of the skill.” It can then be comboed into Ocean Melancholy immediately after for additional protection.
Additionally, the Super Armor on Pirate's Life For Me was moved to Flow: Earth-render Patraca to improve ranged attacks. However, the damage of Pirate's Life For Me was increased to improve it in PvE.

Succession
● Prime: Whirling Slash
- Changed the defensive effect: “Super Armor while moving” to “Invincible -> Super Armor while moving”
● Prime: Mareca: Sea Stroll
- Increased the distance traveled.
- Adjusted the max number of hits.
* Attack 1 damage: 1008% x1, max 9 hits → 1008% x1, max 5 hits
* Attack 2 damage: 1008% x4 → 1008% x8
* Last attack damage: 1260% x1, max 5 hits → 1260% x5
● Prime: Storming Gale
- Added the defensive effect: "Forward Guard during the skill"
● Overflow
- Improved the attack to activate more smoothly.
● Prime: Wipe Out
- Improved to combo more smoothly into Overflow.

Awakening
● Tide-splitter Patraca
- Added as a new Awakening skill.
- Combined the effects of Code of the Scallywags to No Mercy, Scallywags! accordingly.
● Close Quarters: Charge
- Changed the skill effect: All DP -15% for 10 sec → All DP -20% for 10 sec
● Pirate's Life For Me
- Removed the Super Armor effect.
- Changed the extra attack damage: 1416% x 4 → 1416% x 6
- Changed the cooldown: 3 sec → 4 sec
- Changed the PvP Damage Reduction: 50% → 60%
● Flow: Earth-render Patraca
- Added the Super Armor effect.
- Changed the cooldown: 8 sec → 6 sec
● Close Quarters: Suppress
- Improved to activate more smoothly.
● Spare No Quarter!
- Improved to activate the mist effect when the skill is used.

[h3]Item[/h3]

● Improved the max durability to increase by a sum of 5 for each +1 enhancement level for Ash Tree Float and Maple Float.


[h3]Monster[/h3]

● Triangle Head Lizards of the Southern plains of Serendia have adapted to the swamp environment.
- Increased the number of Triangle Head Lizards.
- More Triangle Head Lizards nearby will emerge upon defeating them.




● "Ancient Weapon" Elmermol has appeared in Sycraia Underwater Ruins (Upper Zone).
- A message has arrived from Lynelman that the rift has started to move due to the power which balances the upper and lower layers of the Sycraia Undersea Ruins.
- There is a low probability that a rift will appear when you defeat monsters in the Sycraia Undersea Ruins (Upper Zone).
- "Ancient Weapon" Elmermol, which only appeared in the abyss of the Sycraia Undersea Ruins, will appear on the upper zone when the rift appears.
- "Ancient Weapon" Elmermol summons small Elmermols that disrupt their opponents and use powerful AoE attacks.
- The summoned small Elmermols will contest all Adventurers nearby the "Ancient Weapon" Elmermol.
- When the "Ancient Weapon" Elmermol is low on HP, the summoned small Elmermol will be sacrificed to explode and deal powerful damage.

Sycraia Underwater Ruins (Upper Zone) and Basilisk Den, monster zones that are not affected by Item Drop Rate buffs, were included in the treasure item drop event. Generally, Adventurers would use Item Drop Rate buffs to increase their chances in monster zones with treasure items, however, Sycraia Underwater Ruins (Upper Zone) and Basilisk Den were included as additional monster zones for Adventurers to go to.

During this event, the same treasure item was added to Sycraia Underwater Ruins (Upper Zone) as the one available in Crescent Shrine, while the Basilisk Den got the same one available in the Waragon Nest.
In the future, we plan to exclude Sycraia Underwater Ruins (Upper Zone) and Basilisk Den from treasure item drop events.

● The monster zones that drop treasure items will be changed during the event "The Treasure Hunt is On" (July 6 - July 20) to the following:


[h3]Pearl Shop[/h3]

● New Outfit: [Guardian] Parthenoa

Greetings Adventurers,

Here are the latest update details for Black Desert Online on July 6, 2022 (Wed).

[h3]Screenshot Mode Revamp[/h3]

Screenshot Mode (Ctrl + U, Photo Gallery) has been revamped.

First we added a guide (toggled by F1) on the side which lists the different hotkeys and relevant settings.
These hotkeys will make it easier to adjust visual effects such as filters, blur intensity, gamma, and contrast, etc.

We also added the ability to adjust the ambiance, as well as the time and weather, in your photo so that you can take the best pic suited to your location.
From the quiet hours of dawn to the pitch dark hours of night, with weather ranging from clear skies to cloudy days, you can choose the best settings to take that quality picture. (Sadly, rain or snow cannot be changed on whim).

Last but not least, we also added the function to perform Social Actions in Screenshot Mode.
Along with the addition of Slow Mode (Hotkey: U), which slows down your character, these functions will help bring out the best side of your character for your photo sessions.

We look forward to seeing the marvelous photos that our expert photographer Adventurers will take. Thank you.

We've increased the amount you can list and purchase by item type, and, as long as there are a certain number of items listed on the market, you will be able to purchase a greater amount of items simultaneously than you were previously able to purchase.
We hope this will bring some quality of life improvements for our Adventurers who frequent the Central Market.

● Increased the maximum listable and purchasable amount of 1,340 items in the Central Market.
- Increased the maximum listable and purchasable amount by item type at once (including orders).

[h3]Contents[/h3]

The Adventure Logs were originally designed to provide a different means of experiencing the variety of content Black Desert had to offer, while also rewarding the Adventurer with items or stats.
To help new Adventurers progress through the available Adventure Logs with ease, we've altered some of the objectives for these entries, including Igor Bartali's Adventure Journal that started it all.

● Improved the Adventure Logs as follows:

The Arena of Solare Preseason has come to a close. We'd like to thank all of our Adventurers who queued up and fought fiercely in the battlefield. Look forward to future updates and/or changes to be shared on the Announcements page of the official website or through the Global Lab.

● Concluded the Arena of Solare Preseason.
- Changed the loading screen's image accordingly.
- Arena of Solare has been removed from Menu (ESC) - War (F7).

[h3]Item[/h3]

- You can now obtain Godr-Ayed sub-weapons by converting a TET (IV) Blackstar sub-weapon.
- Godr-Ayed sub-weapons can be registered and purchased at each of its enhancement levels on the Central Market.
- Godr-Ayed sub-weapons have five enhancement levels. They start from +0 and go up to PEN (V). (+0 → PRI (I) → DUO (II) → TRI (III) → TET (IV) → PEN (V))
* Godr-Ayed sub-weapons do not drop an enhancement level when failing PRI (I) → DUO (II) enhancement attempts.
- The materials required to convert and enhance Godr-Ayed weapons drop as loot in Elvia Calpheon.


[h3]Converting Godr-Ayed Sub-weapons[/h3]

● Added "[Godr-Ayed Weapon] In the Fallen God's Name" quests to convert TET (IV) Blackstar sub-weapons into Godr-Ayed sub-weapons.
- Visit Grána's Eldest Spirit Merindora with a TET (V) Blackstar sub-weapon in your possession to accept this quest.

- Godr-Ayed sub-weapons lose 10 max durability for each failed enhancement attempt.

[h3]Godr-Ayed Sub-weapon Stats[/h3]

Cron Meal cooldowns have been reduced from 30 minutes to 10 seconds.
Cron Meals were used in a variety of different content, but were inconvenient to use if ever they were accidentally consumed due to the long cooldown times.
To prevent such mishaps, we decided to reduce their cooldown to 10 seconds. However, considering how Health EXP can be gained from food consumption, we decided to add the "Satiated" debuff to keep the rate of gaining Health EXP the same as before.
Please note that certain other food effects can still be stacked, hence the reason why we chose to retain their respective cooldowns as before.

● Changed the cooldown of Seafood Cron Meal, Simple Cron Meal, and Exquisite Cron Meal to 10 seconds.
- Consuming any of the following food items will apply the "Satiated" debuff.
- The "Satiated" debuff lasts for 30 minutes. During this time, any food consumed will not grant your character Health EXP gains.
