New and Improvements

CONTENTS

● Deve's Encyclopedia was added.

- Deve's Encyclopedia is a new content where Adventurers will need to go out and collect various items. The Encyclopedia can be found in the ESC menu > “Adventure Log”.

- Adventurers must collect items that match the goal in Deve's Encyclopedia and bring the items in their Inventory to Deve for him to see.

※ e.g.) The goal is to “Collect ores (7 types)”. Get one of seven different types of ores (out of all the different ores available in Black Desert) and bring it to Deve. This is a simple example but there are some goals that require a bit of thinking as well.

- When a goal is complete, the effect will be applied to all the characters of the family (HP Increase, Weight Limit Increase, etc). Adventurers may discover hidden bonuses along the way to completing the goals.

- The character must be Lv. 56 or higher, have 601 Family Fame or higher, and completed the awakening quests to accept the quest “Encyclopedia: A Book Written by a Genius or Fool” from Black Spirit to start working on Deve’s Encyclopedia.
