[@tipzycake8146]

Single-handedly being the reason a grand majority of the playerbase even gets through the early stages of the game. So thankful. Hope you're doing well, stay awesome.

Facts

[@BearPhD]

For energy recovery I also suggest lightstone combinations. You can get an extra +2 energy recovery. The specific combo is "Refreshing Dream"

[@toomuchwise]

is there any limit max energy recovery? or we can get as many as we can get? tent buff + kamasylvia blessing + lightstone

[@brentheffren9069]

One thing to mention also it’s more an advanced tip. When between 0-50 on a bracket if you just can’t get the bracket use fig pie instead of cron meal for extra drop rate %. Otherwise you can you the mastery elixir if you’re only 10 off the bracket .

6:51 it is at this moment, that he knew; he fd up :D great info as always

[@jonathanarana3397]

Looking clean, I'm still on year 3 of trying to grow out my hair, best guide out here, helped me sooo much ty

[@Used_cloth]

I like Awakening Lahn for gathering since she has a spammable skill to taunt all enemies around her and you can just AOE once and do quite a bit of gathering in one spot

[@ReggieWarrhol]

Thanks bro, learned a few things and that is always good.

[@Imicicle]

I'd love to get more into gathering but my past sessions have been very sobering. I have a full budget setup (duo manos + 2x floramos + blue tool tri) with full mastery buffs around 1200ish. Yet I make maybe 400 mil at best aegris chopping at ash forest with energy potions on cd. And I don't really have interest in processing/cooking afk since it kinda requires guru to be even somewhat profitable, so that CM sale income is all there is. I get maybe 20-30 Hards per hour which would take like 15 hours to have enough for a reblath failstack session.

[@joshbertolasi33]

Yeah most things in this game to make billions per hour you have to be such a sweat its unreal. It's a second time job to get that good

[@torinux4980]

As of early 2025, some items, explained here, were removed. But still applies. I also agree that Musa excels in gathering because of his dashes. I'm still deciding if I should keep lifeskilling with my Shai. Not only that, but I transferred my slots and weight a couple of years ago to a Musa, but I can't get a hold on mob grinding with the Succession Musa, lol. So I went back to my Shai. But I feel like with Musa, I was able to gather way more items than with my Shai. I'll give it a second chance to Musa for sure.

[@StrissYT]

Looking clean brother! Thanks for all the help! Started 2 weeks ago!

[@ZeusWRLD999]

Just started bdo love grinding but enjoy Lifeskilling while eating for watching video!! Ty for the guides bro love it currently on artisan 5 😂

[@felipeaugusto6482]

Excellent material bro

[@Jaydtrade]

Learned several new things thank you!

[@EvilDoUsHarm]

Happy to help!

[@RouxBeard]

Thanks for being a lifeskill 🐐.

[@garyboyles5762]

I've always really enjoyed the Shai. Mostly due to the weight factor, and I rather enjoy the boomerang weapon attacks, and we can ride them too, so style!

[@mulberrypanther1]

Shai also has campfire to help energy recovery I set one up and process what I'm gathering once weight or energy becomes an issue then continue to give me more farm time

[@evolitile]

Great info as always , thank you :)

[@FoolFuu]

I love the Source "Trust me bro." XD

[@Reygr13]

Hey Evil. The accessory is not limited to rings :). I got my Floramos necklace yesterday

[@kingkazims8587]

Help me please, Liana does not have a quest for the Flomaros ring for me. Only weekls/daily repeatable ones. I also have never done it

[@DrawingsOfNamine]

I cried at the headband lol.

[@CP-yl2vc]

New player here since July 2023. Sorry for being off-topic, but I can't figure out how to use alchemy stones. I equip it in my inventory and ring menu, but when I try to use it, it says not enough materials. What am I doing wrong? Can someone please help me? BTW, I play on console(yes, I'm one of those, sorry). Love your vids Evil.

[@Wombel]

Great video but you need to redo that in a couple weeks sadly. First of all Lianas bad will be changed shortly so that the tools are not char bound anymore. The lianas bag will be an account item like the family inventory and ever char can use the same set of gathering tools. You could have mentioned that. And the bigger change is that we only will have ONE type of trees, meat and sap. So no more lions meat and snake meat... we will just have meat. That will be such a gigantic QoL for cooking as you can imagine.

[@OmniDan26]

lol. lmao.

[@alialekberov4001]

I have a question. I am new to the game. Decided to post here since this is new video. When i reroll season character, i should unequip all my gears. But my season character - Scholar uses hammers. Character i want to play as season char is Sage. I don't think sages use hammers. Soo if i reroll, my sage will be weaponless, have to work normal way to get as good gears as naru/tuvala?

[@alialekberov4001]

😢

[@alialekberov4001]

[@EvilDoUsHarm]

You'll need to make a new set of weapons

[@DiscoverRealityy]

is the update with transfering your life skill live ?

[@federicofalcone8028]

Love your content so much❤

[@mendoman0079]

Yeha papy im glad i Just catch this

[@DucklingNM]

Shai is great for movement too because of Yippie

[@propov1802]

Can you please explain why pick the Ring instead of the Necklace? Thank you.

[@JbxNefarious]

Does the Green thumb mini game affect your EXP when using it?

[@TheAsmodianleader]

how od u have 2 floranos?

[@babadook358]

How do u change your character selection background?

[@purplemma3071]

Thankyou! Wonderful as always, big fan of your vids and much appreciate the update as a new player, soooo much bdo content out there is redundant nowadays :) But speaking of noobs, a note for fellow season players out there - most mastery buffs don't apply to us until we jump on the big kid servers, so manage those !ChaChing! expectations while leveling lol

[@johnendordevilla5155]

i am trying to gather lots of meat, and my gathering mastery is only at 300+ i was hoping i could get more meat per gather, should i still use magic butcher tool? or its better to get a tool with higher mastery? does magic tool also increases gather drop amount? or just the drop rate?

[@EvilDoUsHarm]

Mastery impacts the amount you gather each time. So higher mastery will give you more meat per gather.

[@zzScopoProductionszz]

Nice vid

[@FrozzenK]

How do I get the sethra artifact of gathering?

[@reverie9358]

maaan i just came back to the game and was so sad to hear that alchemy is still being neglected by PA! they've made so many huge improvements and qol additions to the game and i was sure that redeeming alchemy would finally have been one of them lmao. thanks for the video anyway :)

[@M-_-O]

14:38 nerd street cred lul

[@randomlad212]

Out of topic question, but is there any reason a seasonal new player should hit lvl 62?

[@Sarah-vo6ph]

short question.. did u enhance the man's urself or did u buy it cuz it do be expensive

[@EvilDoUsHarm]

Purchase everything, I don't like the enhancing system in BDO

[@xxyxxyyyx]

i just returned to bdo after a long time and i am shocked about the low cooking income per / h on bdolytics, does this have to do with the gathering minigames? it also says something like lions is 500/h i guess the numbers are not updated for the minigame and cooking is still big right? or did the meta change?

[@mrityumara]

the profit /hr for cooking perceived as decreasing because of cap price increase for meats, where before most of the profit come from cooking, now it's went to gathering instead.

[@tay0701]

Crystal of Durability has been removed for anyone who is wondering.

[@kieranroberts4571]

How much of this translates to console? I'm looking to get into the game on console but was under the impression they are at different stages of the games life cycle, so just wondering if this goes for console as well?

[@EvilDoUsHarm]

Console is a few years behind PC at this point. I think most of this is right though. Check your market, if you have loggia gear, then this video will apply (because then you had the mastery update)

[@Tory-JJ]

Trust him bro.

[@kubaa376]

where are durability crystals

[@Valtrach]

Thank you.

[@synx6988]

I am glad I never got into gathering. This is such a mess. Your video is great. But gathering just seems like a chore

[@ostop5267]

i thought the video was at 1.5x at first

[@christinehede7578]

😊

[@CrackerDip]

Im a very very new player and maybe I missed the point, but how do you make money off of it? You gather something, then what? 😂

[@OverlordMike]

I miss your BDOjeSUs hair....

[@EvilDoUsHarm]

:(

[@eftheusempire]

You can make a shitload of money making elixirs

[@axxroey5979]

my brother please add the timestamp T.T

[@EvilDoUsHarm]

Weird... the chapters are in the description but it doesn't look like youtube took them....

[@aleksej6489]

dont agree on x10 quest.. yes it will help spend your energy, but if u have headgehog it will decrease your resources gathered overll in sesion, because headgehog resources arent getting x10 ;(

[@ClockworkGearhead]

No, do the quest. You have an option to turn off x10 at any time.

[@aleksej6489]

@@ClockworkGearhead yeah.. i wanted to say that there is a downside with this quest :)

[@ClockworkGearhead]

@@aleksej6489 then be comprehensive. Don't give bad advice.
