I've gather some of the things that every player should know in Black Desert. Do you think you know it all?


1. Did you know that you can save your entire custom UI which includes key binding, skill cooldowns, your character portrait you name it black desert can save it! Just hit esc and save your settings.

2. Did you know that you can set other players in-game name to appear as Family or Character name on chatbox. Everyone prefers to set it to Family so that you can easily recognize anyone.

3. Did you know that by pressing CTRL + U you can hide the UI and take amazing screenshots.

4. Did you know that if you're experiencing severe lag when doing world bosses you can press SHIFT + F5 to make other players disappear and reduce the lag?

5. Did you know that if you ever get stuck in some places you can easily get yourself unstuck by using the ESC feature.

6. Did you know that you can easily hotkey an item in your Inventory? Just left click and hold the item then while holding it press the button that you want it to be hotkeyed to.

7. Did you know you can link any items on any chat channel? Go to your Inventory and find the item that you want to link after that hit Enter then SHIFT + Left Click the item you want to link and hit enter again to send it.

8. Did you know that you can lock your Black Spirit Rage by pressing ALT + B and Enable Force PVP by pressing ALT + C?

9. Did you know you that by pressing F2 you can access Crafting Notes and search anything you want to craft..

10. Did you know that whenever you see a ? mark on your mini map that means you haven't talked to that NPC for knowledge. Go talk to those NPC.

11. Did you know that the first thing you should do once you discover a new grinding zone is find and talk to the node manager of that zone?

12. Did you know that there is an easy way to go to World Boss Karanda if you're at the EASTERN part of the map?

13. Did you know that you don't actually need a compass to find World Boss Nouver?

Or you can just follow other players.

14. Did you know that if you get lost in the middle of the desert you can ask your friend to form a party with you and you can follow his arrow to guide you back to mainland?

15. Did you know that from Sand Grain Bazaar going to Fogans if you follow where the sand meets the dry land it can easily guide you to Fogans? Once you see the palm trees you know you're in the right direction.

16. Did you know that in ARSHA server you can kill any player without penalties.

17. Did you know that once you become a Red Player in Valencia Region and you got killed, you could end up in Jail for 30 mins and or 1 hour. (NOTE: GO TO ARSHA TO AVOID GOING TO JAIL.)

18. Did you know that death as a Red Player outside Valencia Region can destroy your crystals or worst it can downgrade your gears' enhancement level.

19. Did you know that you can grind disposable alchemy stone to turn them into Mystical Spirit Shard that can restore the durability of your alchemy stone.

20. Did you know that if your boat get stuck on rocks or at the shore you can reloggin to reset the boat's position.

21. Did you know that you can ping the location of any player at Velia Inn for 5 energy and 10k silver. (NOTE: MUST BE AT SAME SERVER, EXACT CHARACTER NAME, CAN'T TRACK PLAYERS WHO ARE INSIDE DESERT ZONE.)

22. Did you know that you can exchange your alt characters' energy into Energy Potion. You can either sell it or use it on your lifeskiller. Check the ratio below

23. Did you know that if you're running out of breath underwater you can go to character selection to reset it and then go back to the same character and you will still be underwater.

24. Did you know that you can set a keybind to easily place your Naphart Campsite. Just click the arrow on top right of the "Install" buton then click "None" to set up a new keybind. I recommend ALT+S or any of the WASD key since you gonna be moving a lot in order to place the campsite on the right spot.


A Little Something from Me


Me

Tepess

I have been playing black desert for more than a year now as a Dark Knight. It was a year ago when I met this amazingly incredible player that taught me everything I know in black desert, she gave all her time and effort in sharing her knowledge to me along with other friends we've met along the way and up to this moment I'm still truly grateful to her and looking back on how these amazing people I play with have become such a part of my daily life of many ups and downs, frustrations, disappoinment, bad decisions, hardwork, dedication, fun, happiness, love, and most of all friendship. Now as a supporter it's time for me to return all the favors to other players and help them grow and and enjoy desert.
