Tips to be Purely F2P in Black Desert Online

[@jinhyung1792]

Start over as a free player and apply the tips you mentioned here. Cuz it's clear that you've never done this before.

I would love to see a video about your node investments and why you have chosen those nodes! I have played for a pretty good time but im still confused as to what to invest in to achieve most possible profit. I do understand needs are different for everyone depending on what money making activities you do but a look into the node empire of such an experienced player would be great. Anyways, really great video once again. Thank you!

[@Raiden_Factory]

Up vote for this!!

[@furyan4467]

Agreed, Id like to see that vid. My nodes are totally random. 😂

[@arvingabriel7277]

Node empire used to be a gold mine back when players where making 100m/hr. Nowadays, its not nearly as valuable is used to be - but it still helps a small bit.

[@andrewosier614]

Would like to see something like that myself. I use Famme's BDO map but seeing what others have usually shows me something I've missed or not thoroughly thought out.

[@PhamVans]

That pot donkey idea is genius! Never would've thought of that.

[@iBindles]

another thing u do about Value Pack is save ur items until u have a good amount then sell them all at once. and only collect every 2-3months when u want to buy ur next big item. im a free 2 play player and ive nerver had a problem doing that. i think i still have like 4 from events and ive never hurt for a VP i jsut collect every few months.

[@windmoh]

u can buy the free tent to buy 10 monster ap with hp pots with the old moon rent shop

[@elvenkingloki]

God damn! This video has such high-quality content, I learned so much new stuff!

[@leanderjekel11]

Amazing video bro as a new player this is soooo helpfull! Keep up the good work!

[@furyan4467]

Had worked most of these out anyway as a solo player. Still a good vid. Subbed. Keep up the good work. 👍🏻

[@MrSkorpikor]

About Stable Keeper near Elvia Orcs. There is general goods vendor next to the bridge. It is seen on the right hand when u are leaving bridge at sable keeper side, its little shai on the donkey :P

[@Sarkwer]

well as a new player a fell a bit confused :S thanks for the tips but is there a video for starting ftp players?

[@coldblood5729]

Additional info for f2p players, get the free tent first, and craft the sealed old moon camping anvil which cost 6-7m good for 24hours. You don't have to go to the nearest town to keep repairing your gears. I'm a f2p player since last year April 2020 with 614gs now, been grinding and crafting the anvil since last year, so for f2p players, make it a habit 👌

[@coldblood5729]

Also, get the old moon camping shop contract from old moon manager good for 7days if you need hp and mana pots, it's very worth it coz if you grind 2-3hours a day for 7days, you can get the money back through grinding 👌

[@purpletroy6372]

I been getting free value packs from attendance and quest on season server. I sure wish Id known about the work around for the tent before I popped my card out. This is a great vid, New Players, This is your Guy rite here! Thanks

[@kaikage1573]

Great informative vid. Sounds nice. Doesn’t remedy the fact that they have a rigged casino enhancement system or grinding from the start to achieve endgame gear takes way more time out of your gameplay to the point it feels more like employment rather than enjoyment.

[@Dreyden12274]

I guess you haven't played recently and ur a salty gambling addict

[@Yoski1337]

I grind to afford all of my things. I can definitely say yes, it's basically like a job in the game lol! Something you hate doing but gotta do it nonetheless. It's about achieving the results that drives things forward.

[@sethkang4410]

if you new players do the main questline till valencia u can get 5 free pets!

[@TigerShoosts]

Very helpful I’ve been playing this game for awhile now and still confused on how the fairy system works! Maybe a video on that next ? There’s just no good guides out for that

[@grayshadow2597]

For the pots I just use transaction maid or butler, unless the spot drop stuff I need to put in warehouse at a high rate.

[@marcussellers6147]

Awesome as always sir this video came out at the perfect time I'm trying to get a friend into BDO this will help

[@icata12345]

i did 10k/h with free tent repair ... also use the event brand stones even branded my kutum still brakes , also just login even if you dont play allot

[@ruins5750]

Other No value pack /no tax sell: barter item and imperial box.

[@tchevensky7802]

how much trash/h i should be getting at centaur to be at least decent with tier 1 pets? i mean, i have t3,t2, and 3 t1 pets, so i have no idea if im doing ok or if im not taking enough to be worth it

[@Morten_S_Olesen]

I disagree on the 14 day loyalty Value Pack. We get free Value Packs from events, codes, etc. once every few months and with a bit of patience these are plenty. Especially once you reach higher gear and your progress gets further inbetween. Loyalties are very valuable for events, weight and character slots, even storage expansion is better than one time use Value Packs as these are all permanent upgrades. I'm on EU with 310 312K 377 2x Pen BS, 8 t4 pets and 23 char slots and never bought a Value Pack. I only ever bought the tent, a bit of extra weight for my main after a couple years of not having it and an outfit that I really liked which was impossible to get from mp. The only things that in my opinion suck about the F2P playstyle are tent and weight as well as not having the daily LS from VP when you grind a lot. Great video Choice.

[@MsGhoulz]

I haven't bought one in a while. They gave us SOOO many VPs and blessings of old moon lately.

[@Hook1m]

Is there any GOOD guide for elvia atraxxion boss fight? me and friends have problem on stage 2 with those stupid creomars and cant make it

[@bootyglue3734]

What does 23/35 mean? Pearl item selling limit?

[@rubenm16r91]

good vid!! keep up the good work ^^

[@the_crazy_chris]

Can't you just buy pots from F2P tent instead of doing shenanigans with donkeys?

[@MrCrazymanGR]

[Choice] unfairly killed by [ShaiShaiShaiShai] Btw it's a good guide and a good advice is to sell your items and when you are ready to buy something just use a loyalty VP or any VP that PA gave you and collect the silver. Don't waste all VPs just because you have one sitting on your inv.

[@murilooliveirasilva1123]

that deserves a like!

[@redheda3576]

[@contiplays]

You are from NA right? :D

[@ImChoice]

Yup!

[@MsGhoulz]

Is the campsite REALLY that much of a perk? I have no issue making my own camp anvils for the base campsite. What's a 50% drop buff for things with 01.% drop chance anyway? Now, if the P2W campsite offered trash loot buffs... THAT would be OP.

[@khanhle4483]

Campsite is very essential for life skiller to my opnion. The turning gave gives +1 energy recover

[@Marcel-zh6en]

Its more of a time saving perk. Villa buffs , repair without leaving your grinding spot is good specially spots that are far away from repair npc.

[@raulm.1556]

You can only have 1 pearl item order at a time and it takes more than 2 months to get anything. You'll have full t4 pets in less than 5 years with in game currency. Sounds good.

[@Mimixs]

I never buy pets but i have 5 t4 pets, with only events and a little bit of luck

[@generalawareness101]

How is this game f2p as the best I can find is a seven-day trial?

[@generalawareness101]

F2P but not really plus the cost to get into it is 10 USD though they had a free deal early this year for Steam and I got in with 1 USD. I am not sure I will stick around as a life skiller. If all you wish to do is combat this game can easily be 100% doable as F2P but as a crafter/gatherer (what they call a liferskiller) not so much as the 1 point of energy every 3 minutes while logged on (or 1 pt every hour you are logged out) just fucking sucks. I can blow through 3.5 million silver pots skilling up my gathering in 10 mins (a bit more the higher I become being Professional 10). TL;DR Get ready for pain if you want to do anything in this game as free to play crafter/gatherer/hunter/alchemist/fisher (or if you try to hire workers) but stickly a combat player it is easy.

[@thebloodypoohbear2504]

I'm interested, maybe I will make my account like this

[@onedeis8011]

Hello choice 😊

[@sitheclimber]

As someone with literally a few hours of seeing what class I want to play (got 3 through Red Nose); too much of this doesn't make any sense as there's no explanation anywhere of pets etc.....shame as so much about the game is unreal..

[@griefer4118]

so you guys get alot of costumes on na but no value packs? Weird, Im always running a vp and never bought one from the pearl shop

[@toofly65comealive]

it can take like a year to get a value pack through marketplace. people have THOUSANDS of preorders on them.

[@Morten_S_Olesen]

On the EU server the average time to get a Value Pack from MP is 957 days or 9527 days depending on which one you PO. Based on total sales the last 14 days and the current amount of preorders. Thats a lot of days my friend.

[@xpatches13]

Loved this, "So...pet's solved, moving on"...Hold up Hoss, It costs on average $128 USD for a T4 pet. So if they want all T4 off the market you're talking what, a hundred billion silver? lol
