Thanks so much, Merry Christmas!

6:15 a new player learning centaurs won’t be selling everything, nor should they. They should save the BMCs to make magical shards. They should save the caphras for their armors. And they should save the scrolls to run them for mem frags. Ofc that is assuming they are being efficient. They can, ofc, play the game however they want.

[@logicoveremotionspodcastre453]

JESUS THANK YOU I WAS WAITING FOR A RECENT ONE!!!

[@IronBrutzler]

Important for new Players is that DP Matters. With the free Pen Blackstar and the other Black Star it is easy to have the AP but you will crushed when you just have Tuvala and a Blackstar and showing up at Orcs (yes some class can easy do it even in full Tuvala)

[@Anomalyy666]

Whats the best grind spot for berserker at 296 ap and 348dp?

[@IronBrutzler]

@@Anomalyy666 Depends what you want, for raw silver i would say Orcs but if you do not have labreska helmet i would grind Jade Starlight Forest for the Embers/Flame of frost.

[@theblackishboy1105]

Dekia wouldn't be nearly as hated if they added actual mechanics like OG ollens to all the old spots but they not only didn't do that, but they nerfed the spot everyone liked

[@tistats]

Thank you! I Appreciate when you update this!

[@othahex]

Thanks for the run down homie!

[@Zmokkyy]

2 days ago, Honglim base bugged out for me and since then im unable to get the boss spawn, so i get no flames and no fox spirit. Its so sad because i actually enjoy those types of spots where im not dashing pack to pack

[@jazkev]

All of your videos are super helpful. I would love to see a something on how to get a billion an hour at centaurs, or just to get better at grinding and boost silver,

[@Muhammad-Jacobs699]

Just in time, we are back to playing bdo again

[@ПавелКаратыгин-у9п]

when i hear "AVERAGE 30K on Tungrad Ruins" it hurts everytime, cause i paly succ lahn with 343\336\426 GS and recently made 29k with very good amount of events (10 or 11). how someone do more i can't understand...

[@absol7429]

Average at tungrad is not 30k

[@OriginalLimitz]

Where would you recommend to farm sealed black magic crystals? On NA console I have preorders but nothing fulfilled due to everyone needing magical shards

[@Jonlaw98]

put an order on magical shards and sealed crystals, but depends on your AP

[@OriginalLimitz]

@ yea console recently just got the Kharazad acc and I had orders for the crystals since then

[@RipperRory]

@@OriginalLimitzidk if you got the answer, but centaurs

[@OriginalLimitz]

@ appreciate the reply. Yea I rem way back this was goated for crystals. It felt it got nerfed pretty bad since then unless I just had pretty bad luck

[@shatzi3412]

And which classes are the best to grind these high end spots? Darkseers for example? cuz i feel like my awakening striker jst should be removed from game or reworked or idk

[@TheSpoonelite]

Have you tried succ Striker? EskMag pulls some insane numbers.

[@wolfiibooii]

1bil an hour sounds crazy at Centaurus, im gonna have to test that sometime.

[@Jonlaw98]

depends on class and if you sell everything

[@Blackfuinha]

Its unrealistic tbh, in a hour you can make about 500mil but still ok silver

[@alnoman5854]

@@Blackfuinha I used to get 1 bill in Centaurus, i get it why you're saying it's unrealistic but trust me when you give it your all and learn how to min max your pack to pack movement / pack clearing speed you can achieve close to that number with thrash only. i did it with succ zerker and awak musa.

[@Blackfuinha]

@@alnoman5854 what spot you grind on centaurs

[@hopsys]

@@Blackfuinha I pull 800mil/h with awe nova at centaurs, with agris

[@centraltexasmetalman]

I love Honglim as a grind spot before transitioning to Darkseekers. Its stationary tower location, has an afk mechanic after 3 elite spawns to clear waves for you, the trash is solid with agris, and the crystals are great for karazads. Average for me has been about a bil an hour trash with 5-6 crystals an hour. Ultra recommend as a endgame transitionary location if you just need raw silver and karazad mats. I also value non movement grinding very highly as its super laidback so it doesn't feel tiring.

[@TheRealSin]

What would be the min dp/ap to try and farm there as a new~ish player?

[@centraltexasmetalman]

@@TheRealSin As long as you have elixirs/food/etc 260ap/350 dp would be probably fine so right out of seasons with a few upgrades like completing the free pen gear quests. Honestly might not need that much and could do right out of seasons assuming you have full pen tuvala, but you can end up with multiple tet/pen blackstars, a karazad accessory, pen crescents and pen boss armor, you should be pretty set after full season and completely your adventure log journals.

[@TheRealSin]

@@centraltexasmetalman Oh ok, I guess I just need to complete the quests to unlock the area then. Thanks!

[@kevinwang7894]

What’s ur setup? I make around 38-39k trash with Agris and 3 crystals/hr. 900ish ap

[@centraltexasmetalman]

@@kevinwang7894 I'm about 1000ish ap but its at cap so diminishing returns, I'm also awk witch which is pretty quick clear, i also make sure i use any buffs I have for trash and drop rate to maximize time (golden agris coins, j-scrolls, lvl2 loot etc). and crystals are an average, so like sometimes I have bad hours with like 1-3 and sometimes I end up with 5 and a Bon which I count as 10 (use dawn ess as the scale). 38-39k looks like its missing some form of extra droprate from something. If you are maximizing drop rate, its down to clear speed/boss spawn time and boss kill time.

[@SupremeGuru7]

Yo I have a question how do you turn house buff statue into 5-hour Buffs

[@Jonlaw98]

place it into your house and use it? otherwise check tooltip

[@TwirlingFoxspirit]

Happy holidays!

[@Nerithielful]

jon im 260 succ lahn/277 awak but im like 336dp are these 340 dp req viable at my current dp ?

[@dalbakk2452]

More likely you'll be perfectly fine than not, just remember to use draughts/perfumes and church buffs

[@kzk821]

i got similar stat like yours, already tried jade and got 280m/14ktl with level 1 ls and like 179% drop rate in 1 hour. idk if thats good or not lol

[@kzk821]

newbie here, can someone guide me how to min max drop rate? atm i got around 277 ap & 339 dp, wanna try spots that john recommended at 260/270 spot i'm usually grinding using only level 1 ls & buff drop from tent so i got like around 179% drop rate is it okay to use level 2 ls now? since someone told me to save it for endgame spot and is there any buff/food that i can use to increase drop rate?

[@TheRealSin]

Min/max = how sweaty you want to be on your class. Class also plays a role in the sense that some are faster grinders than others. I believe you should generally strive to use lvl 2 drop rate.

[@teknikoscave]

How the hell are people "making a billion an hour on average"...?!

[@hfhrthyrfdhfdgh]

they dont, the trash/h they talk about is an exageration most of the times averegae is what garmoth says example: quint is not 14k trash average is 7k but in the video it sounds better

[@Ainoyu]

damn i did not notice it was 46mins video.

[@Jonlaw98]

good thing we got timestamps for your limited attention span 🤣
