Hashashin	Black Spirit: Quicksand
Nova	Winter Testudo Star’s Ring (stellar)
Sage	Illusion Compression

If you enable the option to remove other adventurer effects, the effects of skills important for PvP are not visible. Through this update, it has been improved so that only the effects of important skills can be seen.

If the character does not take any action for a specific situation and for a period of time, the pet will not take any action.

The phenomenon in which the sound effect was not output properly when using the raining moonlight skill after using the Halo skill has been fixed.

Guardian

The phenomenon that the down attack damage increase effect was not applied when using the Strike Down I~III, Absolute: Strike Down skill has been corrected.

Item Loot Changes

The Black Energy Remnant loot has been changed so that it can only be obtained by defeating monsters in the Drieghan area.
- The drop rate of the ‘Remnant of Black Energy’ item of Drieghan monsters has been increased.

Remnants of Black Energy were a pretty important item during the Drieghan update, but over time their meaning has faded a lot. In particular, since this item was dropped from all regions, it was somewhat confusing for those who do not know where to use it. Therefore, it has been removed from the drop in all areas and adjusted to obtain a slightly higher probability from Drieghan, the base.

Items that can be acquired in Mediah and Valencia have been adjusted.
- Each area of the adjusted territory is as follows.

media	Schultz Guard
Valencia	Basim Garrison, Basilisk Lair, Cadri Ruins, Tartaf Plains, Waragon Lair, Titium Valley, Desert Naga Crusade, Gahaz Bandit Lair

- Equipment loot that can be obtained when defeating monsters in the above area has been reorganized to be obtained in the form of a box as shown below.

loot before change	loot after change
All 17 items of losar main weapon for each class	Rosar Main Weapon Box
All 15 items of losar sub-weapon for each class	Rosar Secondary Weapon Box
4 items of Rocaba armor for each part	Rocaba Armor Box

* The above box is stored nested in 1 bag.
* Upon opening the above box, you will get 1 item from all classes depending on the probability.
* Only non-enhanced equipment can be obtained when the box above is opened.
- The Black Stone Bundle has been added among the loot components.

Item name	Item Description
Black Stone (Weapon) Bundle	Upon opening, you will receive 25-50 Black Stones (weapons) according to the specified probability.
Black Stone (Armor) Bundle	Upon opening, you will receive 25-50 Black Stones (Armor) according to the specified probability.

As promised, the drop of equipment items in the Valencia area has been improved in the form of a box. We hope that the shortage of bag slots experienced when hunting in a specific hunting ground in Valencia has been alleviated.

Guild Dukes have been added to enable the production of [Guild] restored Cadry’s Forbidden Book using the token of Cadri whose value has changed due to the loot reorganization in Valencia.

Guild Duke

Cadry’s Token 30 + [Guild] Parchment 1 + Sheepskin 10 + Dark Powder 10

※ When crafting the [Guild] Restoration of Cadri’s Forbidden Book, if you use the Token of Cadri before the reorganization as a crafting material, you need 100 Tokens of Cadri as before.
* Guild formulas using Cadry’s token items before the reorganization can only be made before the regular maintenance on October 27th.

[Guild] The description of the restored Cadry’s forbidden book has been changed from 100 to 30 Cadry’s Tokens.

Infinite Potion Changes

A processing formula has been added that allows you to obtain 1 item that was used as a crafting material when using simple alchemy (L) with spirit water with blessings.

spirit water	production activity	1 item used as a crafting material
Spirit water with ancient blessings	Simple alchemy (L)	Ancient Sherekhan’s Fleet the spirituality of ancient rhone Gaktunak of the Ancient Gray Half Moon
Spirit water with blessings	Simple alchemy (L)	Sherekhan’s Fleet Ron’s Spirit Gaktunak of the Gray Half Moon

Blue Whale Hunting Improvements

Along with Balenos, Mediah, and Calpheon Blue Whales, <Fatigue> Blue Whales, which had been hiding in the deeper sea for a long time, started to appear.
- <Fatigue> Blue Whales are stronger and have a larger appearance.
- <Fatigue> Blue Whales have a special energy around them, and they disappear to the surface faster than other Blue Whales.
- It contains a large amount of oil as it is difficult to find, and you can obtain a greater amount of whale-related by-products when you defeat it.
- Blue whale bones are obtained more often, and there is a low chance of obtaining blue whale oily skins.
- You can exchange the blue whale wall decoration specially by meeting <manor manager> Badane with the oily skin of this blue whale.

※ This update cannot be checked at the Black Desert Lab, and will be updated on the official server later.

<Fatigue> Blue Whales now appear in the sea. Compared to the old blue whale, you have to try to hunt a little more precisely, but you can get more loot. <Fatigue> Blue Whale is a kind of event-type hunting monster and will only appear for about 3 weeks after being introduced to the official server. (Please note that the appearance and loot of the monsters will change little by little after that, and we plan to make large appearances.)

Node War/Siege Changes

The rank and score of each guild (alliation) has been added to the status of the occupation war.
- The ranking and score for each guild (federation) will be displayed from the time the guild does not exist or the guild is destroyed.
  In addition, the score and ranking are the same as before, and differential compensation is paid according to the ranking only when there are 2 or more guilds/alliances remaining until the end of the Conquest War in the absence of a Mercury Guild/Alliance.

With the introduction of the Conquest War scoring system, many adventurers were curious about the rank and score of their guild, so with this update, the rank and score of each guild can be checked even after the Conquest War is over.

Improvements have been made so that the description is displayed when you hover the mouse over each annex building in the UI that is displayed when using the Node/Conquest War annex building construction tool items.
Fixed the issue where the annex UI was awkwardly exposed in certain situations when using the annex building construction tool item in the Node/Conquest War
Fixed the issue where the UI was abnormally exposed when placing annex buildings while moving characters in placement mode when using an annex building construction tool item before Node/Conquest War.

User Interface Improvements

It has been modified so that certain notification messages are not exposed during the next mini-game.
- Item Exchange Registration, Guild Announcement Conversation, Boss Appears, Runner-up Awakening, Golden Bell, Item Price Soaring/Sumbling Message

Search has been added to the waiting list for purchase and sale of the integrated exchange.

When the Item Acquisition Increase Scroll UI is inactive, the UI has been changed so that it does not turn off even if you go to the character selection window.
The following functions of the scroll button have been fixed.
- When the scroll button is clicked, the scroll does not move according to the position of the mouse.
- When moving after clicking the scroll button, the mouse position has been modified so that it does not move.
When using the pad-only UI, the automatic sorting function can be used when using the warehouse item sales function.
The list of items exposed in the drop item list has been merged so that the hunting grounds that were duplicated are exposed as one.

(Left) Before change / (Right) After change

As the items that can be obtained in Calpheon, Mediah, and Valencia have been simplified, they have been added and modified so that you can check the items in the drop item list.
– The list of drop items can be found in the ESC (God) menu → Adventure → Drop items.

Other Changes

The phenomenon that the prisoners of Gaktum in the Red Wolf Village attacked the Nova Corps and Axian has been fixed.
