It's very rare and kind for a person to share their secrets and strategies. This video has been an amazing reference to learn Drakania. I'm the kind of person where even though I'm not a competitive player in PVP, even in PVE I don't really have fun until I understand what I'm doing. I'm not the type of player to just enjoy mashing buttons. This guide has helped tremendously in me understanding the class. Thank you for sharing this experience.

[@sophieawalker5574]

this is a amazing video, i wish there was a video like this for every class where someone asking all the questions from a new player of that class perspective.

[@TheIVSaken]

This was the class I leveled for season and I can't even say how much I love it

[@acts9835]

its funner then the Chinese sisters thats for sure

[@johhnytrip6684]

his pov would have been so much better for this video

[@Lizdra]

This is so good. By far the best Drakania guide out there! thank you so much.

[@CYNC33]

Appreciate you making this video! I'm a new player and I decided to pick Drak and I've been playing for about 3 weeks now and still trying to get my head around the class. Thanks once again!

[@RainbowSushiii]

i would like flowers to explain his end game pve combo tbh, like he said the first half is only buffing but its using multiple high dmg skills alrdy and there is also ways to make it a little faster, u dont need to use the long jumping animation for tip to gain the accuracy buff for example

[@Sacredl1es]

Pre buff is only the 4 first abilitys :) then he use the dmg from dragonblood before the dp debuff goes off since this is where the biggest chunk of dmg is then after he goes back into Shift + F (new dp debuff) and does the smaller dmg :) IF yo just stand still and do not use any momvment before you do shift + lmb in hexblood you only see the sword slash and can cancel it with aoe dp debuff :) you see him do it in Pve part :)

[@Sacredl1es]

best guide out there for awk drak. Got in season and never seen such a fast grinder at low spots :O she is so fun and going to be main from now on! :D

[@Draethar]

Is she still your main or did you re-roll yet?

[@Sacredl1es]

still main :D love her even after nerfs :) @@Draethar

[@lobo_ck9375]

Literally timepieced my Drak yesterday. This video couldn't have been better timed. 10/10

[@RainbowSushiii]

17:38 for everyone having issues with activating crackling while not wanting to, just keep holding s+f instead of only f and it will only do sundering roar

[@kpops_is_fab]

Great vid! Flowers ❤ You are the best teacher omgosh. So patient and calm!

[@RezzaBDO]

these are so good and helpfull! keep them coming! more insights on all diferent type of classes is really neat and usefull!

[@GenXHBReacts]

I (a newbie) recently "fell in love" with the corsair, but I have also tried the drakania, and I think I will use my timepiece on it when it is time. I think it would be a great 2nd toon for me. edit: after watching some of the vid, corsair and drakania are very simular in their movement, except the corsair movement is easier...maybe too easy because it is easy to lose control and waste skills hitting nothing. Just starting the corsair, I can already see that most of my practice needs to be using the movement in a controlled intentional manner.

[@Useedat0]

TLDR: Next time I'm getting Acoins I got both your codes for this 1. Returning player Journey here: 1. It was a Kanon vid suggestion that made me redownload BDO (T9 dream horse event worth it) 2. Said if I ever play again I'm making a succ Drak because it looked so fun. 3. Got drak to level 56, looked at awakening ... she can fly ?? like a dragon? Let me just give it a try.. W + space 🚀 Fun x10. 4. *Dwagon go zrooom* somehow lvl 60 awakening drak yelling "Bridge collapse" at mobs. 5. Should learn how awaken drak works, searches around finds Flowers channel ez sub. Ask question when he's streaming doing aos matches (start saying "money" randomly for +20 drak buff ). 6. Full circle Kanon + Flowers making a beginners guide for awak Drak? Perfect vid for ppl in the same situation. (Didnt know she had a infinite movement like that fun x100)

[@Crescentein]

Bruh Kanon got me come back to the game after like 3 or 4 years after his review of the bdo paytowin aspects and now main I main Drakania. Also my respect to flowers, his drakania pvp montages are top tier

[@Tory-JJ]

Op s rank class ez af

[@gentle4817]

Amazing, thank you both so much for making this! The movement part specifically was so helpful.

[@popularchoices3028]

Great guide. Any chance that google document would be updated anytime soon? Cheers.

[@rashaad2545]

man this is so good very informative tahnk you

[@ogulcan1234567890]

what artifacts do we use not the lightstones but the artifact and what kind of lightstones do we use in pvp

[@downhillgroovy]

the movement camera angle thing also works with succ drak

[@captainmaza]

Your acc amazing the way you connect the community

[@jyrre927]

Great and very helpfull guide ^^ i got one question tho... for the pvp combo, it says after Shift+Q u go into tect slam S+E into S+LMB, but you show Savage degree in hexeblood, but when i go from S+E into S+LMB its in dragonblood. Do i manually switch from Hexe to dragon before doing S+LMB? so like, S+E - Space - S+LMB?

[@iboxxycore6080]

no the icons were wrong they use s+e - s+lmb in dragonblood for dmg

[@Charifár]

i dont have enough energy to make 1 combo.. what im doing wrong

[@KhalUsi]

i got my awakening as Drakania but cant dash long distance. What am i doing wrong ?

[@nemnymeria7873]

It's been 3 months now and I want to go back into the game with Drakania. But is she good in PVE? I heard/read everywhere that she's horrible in grind spots, is she better now in December? Thanks.

[@ahtsfx]

yay I wanted to be good with this class! Thanks 😀

[@takisdelijohn2098]

hello is this updated? i noticed you dont go from blue to red anymore with s+LMB

[@whitekitsune4113]

[@xvs_flame1440]

[@alessandroalicata8730]

[@___m16]

[@nonope4072]

[@AonyjsViolmlar05]

[@Artorias_the_Abysswalkerr]

[@xpatches13]

I love your content, and you cover this class really well on Black Desert Online (BDO). I'm sorry, this next part is not directed at you specifically but at the real state of the game from a new player’s perspective without gear. I submitted the below to a GM first, who cleared it of any false claims. Attention all gamers! It is crucial that you are aware of the false claims being made about Black Desert Online (BDO) as a viable MMO. Let me be clear: it is not. Although the game's mechanics allow for a quick start to endgame, it will take you a lengthy 6+ months per piece of endgame gear, meaning you will likely never see endgame if you purchase your gear with the in-game currency. This is due to the game's 13 slots that require a PEN ranking, which is the endgame. Furthermore, the game is heavily based on gambling, making it a genuine possibility that you may never reach the endgame if you are unlucky in going the primary route of enhancing your gear, as it is very likely you will fail the enhancement and have your gear reduced in rank or destroyed! But that's not all. The game also has severe penalties while grinding mobs, making it even more difficult to progress. The complex crystal system in the game also allows you to break your crystal(s) on death, potentially setting you back 1-20+ hours of grinding and up to a month in waiting for the market to replace crystals that you will be unable to get on your own. Finally, there are several Pay to Win mechanics sold in the Cash Shop. While BDO's super small community is actively trying to get them to change some of these glaring issues, so far, the Developers have stated they are not interested in changing gambling, pay-to-win items, or mechanics designed to stop your progression and likely even regress it. Don't be fooled by false claims; choose a game that values its players. For several years, the majority of the small community in BDO has been imploring Pearl Abyss to reconsider the current system whereby accessories are destroyed upon a failed enhancement. We have fervently requested that gear not suffer a permanent decrease in stats as a result of a failed enhancement, and have pleaded for a mechanism to protect the crystals, which are essential for endgame activities, from destruction due to various factors such as desync, lag-spikes, and PVP feeding to mobs. Regrettably, Pearl Abyss has consistently declined all of our appeals. We urge players to select a game that prioritizes the well-being of its community, which the developers of Black Desert Online clearly do not.

[@rogercoutant2924]

This would be exactly what I'm looking for, except ... I play console.

[@VibePolice]

Tbh, idk wtf was the guy saying in the combo cause what he says does not match what was written on the note, the excel cheat sheet and the gameplay action

[@justhereforpeace]

Yep some good tips not bad

[@WarmWashCloth]

This makes me wanna play BDO!

[@RainbowSushiii]

drakania discord so dead this didnt even get posted there LUL

[@knumbtv]

Can you do awaken striker please

[@one_eyeddd473]

Drakiana

[@TileRaveger]

*Cries in ps4* lol

[@lysergicarl471]

Not for beginners tho

[@gigabased4]

This guide could've been 10 minutos if you let the guy speak and play instead of wasting time teaching YOU...

[@issen186]

Drakania is op not so much hard to learn

[@Zvn1c]

A flying protected kd that goes behind fg. What a class. So bullshit.

[@olsonbrandon91]

Trash game, no balance, pay to win, no skill just gear, too much RNG and grind.

[@AonyjsViolmlar05]

I know this might be a bait but no skill just gear is not real at least imo. My son is 680GS but still can defeat 720GS player that are just gear carried.

[@HiroofDeath]

Why are you here? If something isnt for you cant you just move on like a normal person? Theres no need to announce departure.

[@SsSsS524]

@@AonyjsViolmlar05My queen is a shai and beats the strongest boys. Whisper Guenova on EU for tips & tricks

[@dzudemlow]

Balancing 24 classes for different kinds of content is hard but PA is on it atm. Pay to win is nonsense, I only cashed in for the tent one time and for cosmetics yet am 730 gs and planning to go further too. RNG is nonsense too because it's a choice. I buy my gear, the exception would ofc be debo accs which you'd have to painfully grind. The grind part is true but if it's not for you go ahead and play casual themepark mmo's or git gud but don't complain cos the combat in every other mmo is dog water compared to ours.

[@NY-qb5bq]

lol.....its called broken. BDO PVP is not balance. Its a pve game with "oh hey lets just allow player killing with pve skills." You can only get the best gear with hacks or alot of money..........!!!!!

[@dzudemlow]

Or ya know, just playing the game a lot like many 750 gs+ do. Player killing with PvE skills? You sound like 500 gs 3 hours playtime, tf u talking about lol. short edit: 0.01% of players if anything are able to buy their gear with real money. You'd literally have to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars and I'm not making this shit up. That is if you sell outfit boxes which you can't just even buy thousands in a day or even week and then sell them all. In that sense it's not even encouraged to do that. Burning it all to enhance would be even worse and you could spend a million dollars and get absolutely nowhere. So stop spewing bs if you're not even playing or you decided after grinding kagtums for 2 hours with no pity pieces because you have no clue about the game that it's too hard for you. Skill issue.

[@nathanielwintour3386]

I've never hacked or spent money and I've got blackstar

is this still up to date?
