Black Desert is celebrating the new year with some goodies and in-game events for its players. For starters, from now until January 15th, there is a special log-in reward, which includes Advice of Valks, Hard Black Crystal Shards, Cron Stones and more.
In addition, there is a special rewards box you can get for the new year by talking to Lara in Velia. It’s a series of Black Spirit quests that will then reward you a Box Full of Wishes that contains 50-100 of a resource item, like Hard Black Crystal Shards or Cron Stones.
And here’s a list of some limited-time buffs and changes:
- Combat and Skill EXP buffs (bigger boost during the weekend)
- All item drop rates increased by 50%
- Item drop rate from defeating monsters increased by 50%
- Auto-fishing times will be 50% faster
Black Desert is not a free-to-play MMORPG- you’ll need a one-time purchase for via Steam or through the game’s main client. A monthly subscription is optional, however.
