Farming Skills (Detailed): All Classes for Black Desert Mobile

[Updated 5-26-24 - Changed "Berserker", added "Askeia" - Links are below this description] This is a different kind of video, it is meant for you skip to the character you want to see rather than watching it from start to finish. The video will start out showing you what you need to do to use the links below this description. From there you can browse any character you wish from the 50 Characters BDM currently has. I will update this video with all new characters Pearl Abyss comes out with to keep it current. Enjoy!!!! ;)

The guide video that should be watched first after using the character change pack has been updated!

[@chris_hisss]

Pfft, I watched all of it, didn't see one John Deere!
Nice guide! How long ago were some of these recorded? Do they get an update as buffs and nerfs happen? I also am not seeing any succession skill swaps, is that included in the analysis? I did notice a lot of your skills had that blue icon on them, does that mean they weren't fully leveled? I would guess that they do get better, is this taken into account too?
They improve with flows, cool down reductions, more damage, etc.

Heya Chris,
You certainly asked a lot of questions in one batch...lol... so let's see about answering them. These were recorded in one batch on September 28th of last year and then updated every time a new character came out or someone noticed a huge change like "Legatus" that made the section just not right.
When I did my "Character Profile Videos" in the beginning I tried to keep up with the changes that Pearl Abyss did but over time I realized that it was a full time job and I would have no time to do other videos if I tried to keep pace. Personally I think it is wonderful that they work so hard to keep all their characters balanced as we are at a total of (50 characters) to choose from now. So this video covers the basics of the skills, based on their animations and how the character moves on the battlefield to allow a player to leave them to farm without wondering where they moved to many minutes later.
The guide is meant for you to see the suggestions I make and decide what you want to do from there. So no, this guide does not get updated for buffs and nerfs unless they completely change the animation of the skill that makes the character move dramatically different or allows them to stand in place and dish out the damage.
Succession skills are not added to this guide. What we can do is observe the succession skills offered and you will know if it is a good skill to add to farming or not by the way it makes the character move. Meaning, if you choose a Succession skill that has your character fly around the map in 4 giant leaps, then this would not be a good choice for farming skills because you are losing time flying around rather than killing monsters.
The blue icons mean that there is an option to level them up, yes, and no they are not fully leveled. I always do the guide based on the level 1 skills given to you from the start without leveling them up. Leveling up a skill will allow your character to damage more (for example) but does not change "the animation" that we see which affects their movement. Now there are "Enhancements" you can unlock that adds on to a skill but from what I have seen, all the enhancements either: (change the damage output, allow you to do the skill more times, affect the opponent you are fighting, heal your character or even allow you to change Super Armor for Forward Guard or vice versa).
You are correct that skills do get better from Level 1 to Level 10 so the guide here teaches you that when you start out with the suggestions that I make, then you observe how your character changes when your skills are leveled up or you add enhancements to them. By the way, please do unlock all enhancements.
The overall goal of this guide is to show you what starting skills to choose so your character stays in place and farms for you. A big part of this game is leaving your phone on and letting your character farm while you do other things. It is up to the player to ultimately decide if all the changes they made has affected their character to a point where they no longer stand in place anymore.
I hope this helped answer all your questions. Thank you for asking as I am a big supporter of sharing knowledge as best I can when I come across it or learn about it. ;)

@@archmage777 Ok, thanks so much for clearing all that up for me. This will work best for those that just started and want to get to grinding and provide points of reference for us as we grow.

[@archmage777]

@@chris_hisss yea, if I was on the PvP side of videos for this game, then my entire focus would be character profiles, skill upgrades, combos and variations for people to try out and enjoy. 😉
