One thing I really don't like is the inconsistency of item colors to their rarity. Magical Shard is a white item yet it comes from a yellow item. This makes no sense.

important to note that you actually get the PEN stats at Reform level 4, so it's essentially the same as levelling up normal gear with caphs
@Symcy2 жыл бұрын
That's ture, but leveling TET to C20 with Caphras, to upgrade it to PEN doesn't make any sense. You would need 11k Caphras, and at that point it's cheaper to just buy PEN from MP. Cost for PEN armor from jetina: 1st=9,5b, 2nd=10,5b, 3rd=12,5b, 4th=15,5b. Weapon cost: 1st=7b, 2nd=9b, 3rd=11,5b I think it worth to go for 2 armor and 2 weapon parts from jetina ... it's cheaper than buying from MP. One could argue that you can't sell it later on MP, but why would you want to sell armor? You can just push it to C10 and make fallen god. That one you can then sell on MP.

Also, you can get memory fragments by exchanging WORLD boss auras 1:1 after you have exchanged once for a weapon box. You don't need that many auras for weeklies for the crystals, so if you frequently boss hunt, you can stack up quite some memory fragments in a week just from this. I get like 60 - 80 memes a week from bosses. Depends on which spawns I make it to and some RNG. Quint/Muraka/Vell/Garmoth do not drop auras. I hope theyll implement the same thing for exchanging field boss auras at some point.

black desert seems fun with its combat and open world and many other features. But man, the whole gearing system is convoluted as hell and made to be boring.

Can you do a "Weapons and armor for Dummies like Brian" at some point? Feel free to use my name. LOL. You do a fantastic job making this game more accessible so thank you. But I feel like I am missing something between beginner and Boss (for both a main and an alt). I followed your beginners guide; got the green armor, got and upgraded the Naru armor, and then traded it in for Narchillon. Now what? I cannot upgrade the Narchillion and it doesn't say it is TET. Do I need to get something else to TET to then go to Boss tier via the topic of this video? I assume that would be the same for alts since you can only get one set of Narchillion. ?
@bevanlangford50122 жыл бұрын
Narchillan Gear is placed midway between DUO and TRI Blackstar (think one better than boss gear), which puts it at about par with TRI boss. You cannot upgrade it. This video is covering a questline that was introduced to help people upgrade boss gear to the highest level. If you had exchanged your PEN Naru gear for PRI Tuvala, you would have been able to upgrade and follow this progression. Naru -> Upgrade with beginner stones to PEN -> Tuvala -> upgrade with Time stones to PEN (good luck) -> exchange to boss or via Jetina -> follow this guide and source the several billions of silver in stuff to get a PEN boss item! (A PEN Blackstar is still slightly better.....)

uh, so i did the math. its 1.5b for the Sky or Earth Crystal for the first upgrade ALONE. with all the materials bought, if you can buy them, the first PEN you get will cost 5.9b. which yes, isnt bad. however, the next upgrade you do will cost substantially more because of the Old Moon vendor now needing 70 instead of 30. 50*70=3.5b, so your second item will now be 9.4b. still, not bad, but once you hit that threshold of your third upgrade needing 120 will cost you 6b alone. not including the 5.9b base cost. Pen Weapons on average sell for 6-7b, why would you spend 9.4b and subsequently 11.9b on the third and final upgrade when you could get both those items for less on the market? did i math wrong? am i missing something? that was for the weapons alone, imagine the fifth armor piece cost..
