Black Desert Mobile #HG | Como un trabajo, pero pagas tú

Now that we have Hadum and pinks, it almost feels like we have a large amount of what we were saving for previously. I thought it would be a good idea to continue looking ahead and understand what resources to continue banking and what's okay to use now. Be aware that any dates written within here are purely my speculation based off of CP ranges in KR, PA's trends for global release, and gut feelings; there is no confirmed basis for any of these dates.

Upcoming updates:

Boss stamps: Save these for North Valencia. We have 2 bosses that will be coming up within there and they are both DP. If you don't save these, you'll need to use BP to bring them up to a similar level as all the other bosses. I expect this to come out either 10/27 or 11/10 (more likely). Once this happens, get your bosses in Elion as high as possible using 1 multiplier and then either use stamps if Hadum bosses are out or keep saving them for Hadum bosses. If you don't want to keep saving for Hadum bosses, make sure that when Valencia comes out that you actually clear the story before exchanging the stamps. Personally what I've been doing is single exchanging them instead of group to get my Elion bosses to level 99. I have no clue when to expect Hadum bosses; could be anytime.

POG passes: Save them for now, but be warned that any saved extra entries can't be used once the new emblem comes out. This might be updated to the new emblem on 11/10 (likely since the emblem help mentions ‘the first maint in november’) but I will be spending mine on 10/26 just in case the update happens on 10/27 (12 weeks from 8/4) Even if it doesn't happen on 10/27, I highly doubt they will push POG higher 2 updates in a row, so the highest we could get POG would be released on 10/13.

Orange accessories: Save these. Red accessory crafting is around the corner. Likely the 10/13 update if I had to guess. Same thing with magical essence.

Future:

Tablets: You can use these pretty freely I think to get to 100 knowledge and then save them. This will probably get updated with boss knowledge 200 and I feel that is a while away. Boss knowledge 200 could come with Hadum bosses maybe. Either way, don't use these after 100 knowledge. Def don't use them expecting red relic, and I wouldn't even use them if I needed caphras or lightstones since those come on their own over time. I heard Koinzell mentioned that he's never gotten even a red relic from ruins and he's been playing way longer than we have.

Magical residue: Depending on your current gear now, it's best to just save this. Be aware that when you get hex on a backup and transfer it to your main gear, you will lose enchants. Save enough residue to re-enchant in the future. I would say 300k residue is a safe bet to get a +30 enchant on a red.

Dark coins: Save these. Hadum bosses will give a lot of them and they are eventually used to buy a crafting component for pink crystals, which are a huge CP boost. You need 25k coins/1 crystal. Only use these if you're close to a pink gear and need to supplement with some boss frags.

Red crystals: Save the non-CP ones for pink crystal crafting. Need 15 red crystals per pink. This won't be for a while.

World Boss passes: Personally, I've been saving these just because me draining them now really won't get me a pink and I still only have 2 reds because all of my boss frags are being saved for pink. I doubt we will get a Season 4 though before people can start crafting pinks but still; it's good practice to save things until it can actually be useful to you.

Silver: I have no idea what this does in the future anymore. Silver is no longer an effective way to get black spirit exp, and yellows I think are way too expensive to recommend buying them to feed to BS even if you BS is under 140. In general, POG has taken the crown for BS exp. Silver now is used to buy reds off the market, buy boss fragments daily from Orwen, buy valks 50 x7 each week and to buy BP chests. I don't know of any reason to save it in the future aside from helping to restore red relics when an enhance fails (about 10-15b or so for +2 fail).

Social tokens: Save them. KR has a use for them now that we'll get eventually. Just bank 'em.

Pets: Save these for t6 pets once you've completed your pet album. Don't just combine t5s looking for better skills.

Ancient Gold Coins: I went ahead and used them to get JINs for all my alts including Tamer (I have 1 slot oranges leveled to TET and then just enough oranges to craft them into JINs on Tamer once released). You can keep saving for a red rate increase if you want, but who knows when/if that'll happen. I expected it to happen with 10x Shak, but it didn't so who knows if it ever will.

Black stones: Personally, I save the soulbound ones to use on alts (pristines if all alts/backups are +40) and I sell the sellable ones, but it's not a bad idea to use these for pristines right now as well. Pristines are still pretty locked behind events although Refinery 25 is helping a little more.

Purple skillbooks: You can sell these on market if max out the stats up to 30 and the secondary stats up to 10. These caps are still in place in KR. Personally, I just eat all the books.

Relic fragments: Save these once you get double red relic +0. Events seem to make it pretty easy to get orange relics for alts. Pink relics are crafted only, and the main crafting material (circlet) is drawn from relic exchanging or dropped from the desert world boss now. You can craft the circlet from 30 field drops similar to hero's legacy, but they're only available in high CP areas. This one is kind of up to you though because getting higher combat exp on the altar is a good idea.

Alchemy stone fragments: Do whatever you want, I think. Our sushi rate is apparently about where KR's is so I doubt that it will get increased further. I went to HEP sushi and HEP luck and just decided to go ahead and save them after that.

Breath of Life/Creation: I've been using these to craft outfits in anticipation for orange oufit fusing and saving the outfits in pearl inventory. You can save 6k of each of these to craft a pink accessory but this won't be for a very long time.

Lightstones/Fragments: Use these for vials, but don't let it auto eat orange or red lightstones, if you combine lightstones, only combine up to Unique grade. You want to save these kinds:

• Yellow lightstones with double CP are about 11-14 CP for alts.

• Orange/Red lightstones with combat EXP% will be very valuable when we get second lightstone wheel. The second lightstone wheel is a preset which you can swap in and out; it is not aggregated. So in general, you want a PVP lightstone wheel (CP, branch, CHD, whatever you need) and a PVE lighstone wheel (combat exp, MAYBE LT I guess but mostly exp).

• Red lightstones in general I think are best used on alts for family CP. I think it's a better use for them there than just 12 vials.

If you are running low on lightstones, banquet and nightmare mode drop purple lightstones exclusively. It's a great way to farm vials.

A note about EXP: EXP is gained pretty easily in Hadum up until 80, and then things should slow down considerably. Eventually, there will be a scroll to transfer EXP to a character over level 70 (not swap; give). What this means there are a few leveling methods which are optimal in order:

• Use tier 3 Hadum blessing if you can afford to.

• Have combat EXP on your relic altar as high as it can possibly go. It caps at 100, but I would expect most people to be around or above 70 if you're a day 1 player.

• Push your family CP as high as you can.

• 8% combat exp pets on at all leveling times. Double soups also (thanks, deals for the soul!)

• Outlaw in Hadum if you can afford to.

• We have 10 alt slots now and 9 classes. Your alts should be 1 of each class and 2 of your main. The 2nd main holds your backups while you push for hex/hep etc and will eventually become your leveling class. This 2nd main should be in tower constantly. In the future, once exp swap scrolls come out, you can easily switch back and forth all your main's gear onto the 2nd main and grind on that using family blessing. You can take it a step further and use leaders blessing if you're stocked full of them. You then level on that alt until you hit your main's level, drain the alts EXP into the main, and do it again. This is the most effective way to maximize EXP buffs. Start to save your combat EXP% orange and red lightstones to put them on the second lightstone wheel for this "leveling second main". This can get you around 20% extra combat exp.

Actual money: This is best spent on boss stamps still and banked and also the POG tickets. I have personally paused spending almost completely once I got emblem +22 aside from boss stamp hot deal as I expect once POG gets updated to new emblem, there will be an even better package, but the current WP package we have is very good. (Obligatory "Don't spend on RNG")

BP: Save it. We probably have a tile event around the corner. Even if we don't, start saving it for the hammer event in a month or two. I use these on boss passes in Talish shop and the POG passes.

WP: Save it if you're comforable with where your emblem is at. I use these on the BP exchange events (like we have right now), and for "steps of" things if they're worth it.
