Class Changes

All Classes

Hello adventurers, this is Black Desert Studio.

Today, through the Black Desert Research Institute, the accuracy/damage reduction/evasion system has been revamped along with a reduction in the number of hits for each character’s skills. As it was a large task, it took a lot of time to verify, and although it is late, I am happy to be able to reveal it to adventurers. Thank you again to the adventurers who waited.

First of all, as previously announced, the number of skill hits for each character has been reduced by approximately 70-80% compared to before. We worked carefully so as not to affect the actual feel too much, but I think it may feel awkward at first because of the simplified feel. However, as this was an essential task for a better Black Desert, we ask for your generous understanding from adventurers.

Next is an overhaul of the accuracy/damage reduction/evasion system. The original plan was to make corrections by adjusting only the skill’s damage, accuracy, and evasion to correspond to the reduced number of hits, but it was judged that change was inevitable in order to improve in a more positive direction.

In particular, in the case of the evasion system, if it is successful, no damage is taken at all, so as the attack power level increases, the performance also gets excessively better. Therefore, the value of evasion, which is relatively higher than damage reduction, may still act unreasonably (in some cases, inflicting significantly lower damage despite the same opportunity) for adventurers playing the game, so we will take this opportunity to address the fundamental problem of evasion and accuracy. We wanted to solve it together. Here’s what’s changing:

First, there are changes to the evasion system. Successful dodges now take minimal non-zero damage. Even if the hit’s dodge is much higher than the attacker’s accuracy, a minimum 10% chance to hit is now applied and 10% of the damage is applied (relative to when dodge had not occurred). Now, the concept is not about perfect evasion of 0, but about missing the enemy’s attack. (It would be good to see this as an adjustment to prevent excessive advantage as the number of hits decreases and the number of cases in which damage can be received decreases.)

Next is the addition of the bonus damage reduction system. Currently, many adventurers have expressed their opinions about the so-called ‘one-shot’, where characters die too quickly in PvP situations, so we decided to take this opportunity to make adjustments to balance the performance of evasion/damage reduction. Accordingly, you can receive a ‘bonus damage reduction’ effect depending on your defense level.

In addition, the amount of damage received is now reduced when in super armor . Judging by the overall balance, it is unfortunate that the bonus damage reduction alone is insufficient, but if it is increased further, it may become excessive. The intention is to utilize the feature of ‘super armor’ so that it can be used effectively at important moments. The applied damage reduction rate may be applied differently depending on the nature of the class.

The last is a change in accuracy/damage reduction/evasion tied to the class/item. To summarize, in areas such as damage reduction, evasion, and accuracy, it has too much influence on the class itself so that you can choose the class you are attracted to, not the performance. This part has been improved to reduce the amount of damage received and to be more affected by item settings .

To achieve this, first, the skill hit modifiers for each class were changed. In particular, as with expressions such as ‘hit gold spoon’, there were cases where some classes had high accuracy even without item assistance. We took this opportunity to minimize these issues as well. Accordingly, the accuracy/evasion abilities that were overly focused on a specific class were adjusted ‘within the limit of maintaining the characteristics of the class’, and the rest were changed so that the direction of play can be determined according to the item settings.

And accordingly, the effects of Dahn’s Gloves, Ator’s Shoes, and Accuracy Accessories have been adjusted upward. The exact figures for the parts explained can be found in the text. In addition, there are large and small changes in each class to accommodate the major changes, so I would appreciate it if you could refer to this as well.

[To summarize, it is as follows.]
Along with the class hit number adjustment, the following improvements are also reflected.

To prevent the effect of the evasion ability from increasing rapidly,
The areas where certain abilities were high only for designated classes are adjusted,
Issues such as dying too quickly in battle have been fixed.

Looking at the content, it may feel like it is too big of a change. However, since all changes the premise of ‘reducing the number of hits’ are balanced based on comparing the skills, abilities, and effects of the current official server does not have much meaning

The Eora Store in the Black Desert Research Institute has also been improved to make it more convenient to use, so we will prepare by reviewing the opinions of adventurers who have experienced it in various ways. thank you

Adjusted number of skill hits

The number of skill hits for all classes has been adjusted.
- As the number of hits of the skill has been adjusted, the following changes have been made:

Skill Damage	– As the number of hits of the skill has been adjusted, the damage of the skill has changed.
Effect of increasing number of hits	– The effect of increasing the number of hits in a skill has been changed to an effect of increasing damage. * For some skills, the effect of increasing the number of hits is applied as before.
HP and fighting spirit/mental strength/holy power recovery effect applied to each hit	– The vitality and fighting spirit/spiritual power/holy power recovery effects applied for each hit in the skill have been adjusted to match the changed number of hits. * The values for some skills are rounded.
Additional skill resources recovered with each hit	– Additional skill resources recovered per hit from skills have been adjusted to match the changed number of hits. * [Sorceress] Shards of Darkness * [Striker, Mystic] Martial Spirit Shard * [Shai] Florin Leaf * [Nova] Breath of the Stars * [Drakania] Ion
Skill addons	– In skill addons, the value of the life recovery effect recovered for each hit object when a successful hit has been adjusted to match the changed number of hits.

The additional damage effect proportional to one’s maximum health/fighting spirit/holy power/spirit power of some skills has been removed.
- [Ranger] Evasive Explosive Shot III, Blasting Gust III, Penetrating Wind IV
- [Berserker] Raging Thunder IV ~ VI, Predatory Hunt IV, Ultimate : Elastic Force, Wrath of the Beast III, Lava Piercer I ~ III
- [Maehwa] Lunar Slash
- [Kunoichi, Ninja] Heart Aiming, Flash Slash I~III, Ninjutsu: Shadow Explosion I~V, Fox Claw I~IV, Suicide Fall I~II
- [Ninja] Beheading the Dead I~III
- [Witch, Wizard] Earthquake I ~ IV, Meteor Shower I ~ III, Fireball Explosion I ~ III, Residual Lightning I ~ IV, Frigid Fog I ~ IV, Blizzard I ~ III, Ultimate: Blizzard, Concentrated Magic Arrow III

Black Spirit’s Rage Skills (10%, 25%, 50%)

Black Spirit’s Rage Skills (10%, 25%, 50%) skill has been changed as follows.
- All Black Spirit’s Rage skills no longer trigger the skill special effects of the original skills.
- In the case of skills with levels (I to IV, etc.), the Black Spirit’s Rage skill can only be activated when the last level is acquired.

Damage reduction system rework

Just like the ‘Bonus Attack Power’ and ‘Damage Reduction Rate’ that are obtained depending on the item worn, ‘Bonus All Damage Reduction’ that has an additional effect depending on one’s defense has been added.
- The value of ‘Bonus All Damage Reduction’ increases depending on the defense of the worn item.
- Accordingly, the effect of increasing defense gained when using a character’s skills has been adjusted.

※ The defense range below may change when the official server is updated.

Accuracy/Evasion system rework

The Accuracy/Evasion system has been revamped.
- Now, when evasion is successful, the damage is reduced according to the correlation between the evader’s evasion and the attacker’s accuracy.
  - When evasion is successful, a miss is displayed, but reduced damage is applied.
- Even if the evader’s evasion is much higher than the attacker’s accuracy, at least 10% of the accuracy rate is applied, and 10% of the damage would be applied if no evade occurred.
- Accordingly, the character’s basic accuracy / skill accuracy rate / accuracy rate increase effect / evasion rate increase effect / evasion rate decrease effect have been adjusted.
