How I feel as F2P

I still 100% enjoy BDO and haven’t paid much since I got 5 pets

The game is excellent. It became my top and only played MMO months ago. Nothing beats the combat and just about every week there are new events.

The PvE is amazing to me because I like rmgrinding instead of questing.

Unfortunately yes there are major pay2win issues just announced. Lucky for me I never planned to be the in the top 1% PvP wise. There aren't really any rewards for PvP so it's not a huge deal to me.

Kakao actually agreed on the cron melting, it wasn't forced by PA.

Administrator armor(When PEN is not enough)

If you are thinking of playing understand the cost is high to compete

Posted: 31 Aug 2018 01:37 PM PDT

I also posted this to the official forums.

TLDR: $345 with recurring $15 per month minimum. Average $903+ with recurring $57.50 every 3 months to compete. Not counting any costumes bought to melt for cron stones for safer enchants. One of the most expensive MMO's to play. Be prepared!

  • 1 Game = $10 (more if you want the explorer's package which I suggest) 30 day Value pack/90 day Value pack = $15 for 30 day, $57.50 for 90 (if you don't get this you will be handicapped in too many different areas)

  • 5 T3+ pets = bare Minimum $200 (each pet cost's roughly $11.00, you smash 2 of the same pets together to get a chance at a higher tier. T2-T4 pet's are purely random and you can only smash 1 tier below or above, IE: T3 will smash with T2 but not T1 for a chance at T3 or T4...yes, you are not guaranteed to move up tiers after T2. It is $88 - $200+ for 1 T4 pet.

  • Gear Score (GS) 500+ = (All TET non boss gear, most TET boss + non boss gear). Expect to spend minimum $120 (300 Artisan frags). 1 memory fragment = 1 durability on boss gear unless paired with P2W Artisan Fragments, then 1 = 4 durability. You loose durability when you fail to enchant, you will use a lot of memory fragments. For non-boss gear you destroy a non-enchanted version of your armor/weapon for 10 durability. To reach TET unless you are RNG carried (the rates are extremely low, majority of you will not be RNG carried) you will spend months earning the rare resources of Hards and Sharps to convert to concentrated armor stones or you will need Cron stones to make "safe" your enchant and shave off a couple of those months. These can be bought from blacksmith's for 1 million silver per 1 cron stone, or you can spend $22-$34 to buy 1 pearl outfit and melt it to get 118- 219 Cron stones. The number of Cron stones you will need varies widely piece by piece, but for example a +18 or Tri Dim Tree chest (boss armor) to enchant to +19 or TET = 263 Cron stone per attempt (not guaranteed to go succeed, you lose cron stones regardless). That's cheap compared to a +2 or Dou Ogre Necklace which costs 854 crone stones per attempt to go +3 or Tri. Also a Kzarka (boss) main hand TET will cost 1,063 cron stones per attempt to reach +20 or PEN. PEN is the highest rank you can enchant to currently in this game. 1,063 cron stones is not the highest either, some costs more.

Optional but highly encouraged purchases:

  • Ghillie. The original P2W costume, $34. Removes your name from being seen, making it a ton harder to track you in the terrain. This allows you to grief other players without worry of your guild suffering for your actions.

  • Outfits. Full 8 pieces will give you 10% combat exp, +10% skill exp, -10% weapon durability consumption, -10% death penalty, and some other useful buffs/bonuses. Outfit is $22-$34 + $7 for underwear for 8 piece bonus.

  • Naphart Campsite. Gives you a tent that allows you to convert your silver to gold for less weight, allows you to repair your gear anywhere in the world and 20 extra storage. This costs $49.

  • Maids. At least 5 storage maids and 1 merchant maid. Merchant maid will allow you to buy or list 1 item per 20 minutes while outside of town. Storage maids allow you to access the closest major city's storage without going to their storage manager. Also has a 20 minute cooldown as well as a weight limit. Each maid costs $12.

  • Storage in towns. At least 3, $9 each or $27 per 3. This will give you 8 extra storage in most towns. You will need to spend far more to have 8 extra storage in every town.

  • Worker Lodging. $2 x3 per area. Highly recommend buying all of them or $36 for 6 area's x3 purchases.

  • Character Slot Expansion. $6 each, buy until you hit max character slots. Currently this is roughly $42 I believe.

  • Inventory. $14.50 x2 or $29 minimum = 32 extra inventory slots. Almost required for decent progression through grinding.

  • Weight. $17+$13.50+$10 or $40.50 = 450 extra weight. Almost required for decent progression through grinding.

Good luck if you still decide to play this game, feedback is welcome.

Easy BDO fix.

Posted: 01 Sep 2018 08:41 AM PDT

Keep the Koreans working in the art department, gameplay, 3d modeling and graphics engine etc and hand over the content work and progression to some dudes like those at Blizzard, including the business model decisions and so forth lol.

We play at home here in the USA not internet cafes so we don't need an internet cafe business model. We need fun, incentives and goals. The endless grind nature of BDO doesn't work in the USA.

It's obvious PA is about that cream, so cater to your demographic​.

BDO won't do well on consoles, those players have short attention spans so the endless grind for level, enhancement of gear and penalization of failed enhancements will not work well there.

BDO needs a change in the mindsets that run it, or replacements.

Definitive stuff and game play style guide for Valkyries ?

Posted: 01 Sep 2018 04:05 AM PDT

Hi there. I'm a lv55 pre-awakening Valk. So far, I have made it with the stuff I found and the combos I liked the most but my stuff is insufficient and I wonder if there's absolute combos that I don't know of. I've been searching the Internet and found a lot of different guides therefor I'm a tad bit lost regarding the stuff and combo question so why not try this subreddit's Valks's opinions ?

What exact stuff, not world boss, should I fetch for being well after my awakening? What combos/abilities would you recommand ?

Thanks in advance for helping me !
