Black Desert implemented an update on Wednesday, October 7. This update features a max level cap expansion, a revamp of the EXP system, and the addition of the new class Common Skill, 'Myeolsin: Designated Strike.' In addition, character stat growth values that previously differed across classes have been unified.
1. Class Improvements
- Added new class Common Skill 'Myeolsin: Designated Strike' (Obtainable from 'Path of the Mercenary' in Voidekea after completing the Inner Edania main quests)
- Unified the growth values for Max HP, Natural HP Recovery, All AP, All Damage Reduction, and All Evasion across all classes
- Consequently, Max HP increased at Level 75 for Sorceress, Lahn, Tamer, Kunoichi, and Ninja
- Consequently, Magic Damage Reduction was decreased and Magic Evasion was increased for Striker and Mystic
- Consequently, Max MP increased for Sorceress and Hashashin
- Consequently, Max WP increased for Drakania, Kunoichi, and Ninja, while Max WP decreased for Lahn
- Stats that previously varied upon leveling up have been transferred to separate passive skills (automatically learned at Lv. 50, 55, 60, 65, and 70)
2. Max Level Expansion and EXP Rework
- Character max level cap expanded from Lv. 70 → Lv. 75
- Additional stats granted per level upon reaching Lv. 70 or higher
- Reduced Combat EXP required to reach the next level across all level ranges
- Adjusted EXP obtainable from all monsters, quests, and Black Spirit's Training
- Added a cap on the maximum Combat EXP obtainable per monster kill based on character level
- Displayed obtainable EXP per monster kill in Monster Zone Info
- Changed monster name color rules based on level difference (Gray → Green → Light Green → White (Equal) → Pink → Red → Purple)
- Added 'Combat Secret Book,' which grants EXP after participating in Black Shrine, Guild Bosses, Altar of Blood, and PvP content
