- Here is my gear progression from beginner to end game guide for 2023 in Black Desert. If you are playing during a time when a season is not currently active, talk to Fughar to gear Narchillan gear, which is almost equivalent to Tuvala.

Welcome to the channel if you are new here, and thank you all once again for the likes and subs lately! I appreciate it. Hope you all have a fantastic day
Insane uploads recently. Love watching your content and keep up the good work
Appreciate the video. Definitely very overwhelming as a new player with all of the systems in place. I've been watching a lot of CZcams and readin trying to get a better grasp. I just subscribed and look forward to watching more of your videos!
Yeah understandable, this game just has a lot of info.
It feels like i have a phd in bdo. I never google much about it except for finding npc or something weird like this. 3 years of bdo
Good content friend, so many beginners guide
Hey! Great video, like always. I just started on Musa on console, was torn between Musa and Ninja, but thought i am gonna start easier on controller. Can you maybe give me quick after season gear tips specifically for Musa? DR or Evasion? I am gonna play awakened, so should i get awakened boss wep first? New season just started also on console. Looking forward to your reply :)
I have a question, so i use the time piece to get a woosa as my main, and i transfer the gear (this is my first season) would i be able to convert all my tuvula gear on my woosa to boss gear, or would i be locked because my first seasonal character wasent her?, i havent done it with my other character
My char automatically graduated on lvl 50. I never had Tuvala or the option to turn Naru into Tuvala. I turned Naru into Narchillan, which was pretty good up until lvl 60. But now how do I get boss gear?
This is clutch becuase i just got into the game
2:34 what if I had an account before but it’s my first time finishing seasonal with pen Tuvala gear. Can I still get the full boss gear?
i appreciate you including console thanks again on update
Late comment but i just checked storage and have a j's hammer. On Valk, so mainly awakening but pretty newgame (AP Wise, 1st season but finally found cllass I like playing), seems my best bet would be save for Tet Blackstar Mainhand and pop Pen even though I camp awakening? Anyones advise is helpful, thx.
what do i do if i have enchanted my naru weapons to V and did not equip it but i exchanged it for the Tuvala weapons will i not be able to finish the seasonal free pass??? I am new so it would be really helpful if someone could answer
i completely noobed out and got rid of of my naru gear is there anyway to get it back? Or am i screwed
Hopefully you see this i know ots an old video but i was wondering where narcillian armour and gear fits into this because thats whats my main has atm and idk where to go from here.
i still dont get it, i already exchange all my armor to boss gear my ap is still 230 i cant progress the main quest cause i need higher ap, what should i do?
Hey so when I get my first toon and graduate, I get one normal exchange between tuvula to boss, and i can convert a lot of it once using jetina right? Im confused, because bdo foundry says that for jetina "You CANNOT enhance this gear or put caphras into it.". Does that mean I dont want to use it? Isnt it useless now? Like do I want to convert everything using jetina except one item? Its so confusing, which tuevela items do i want to convert using what?
I believe the way it works is the first set (first time exchange) can exchange all weps + armors that cannot be enhanced, but future seasons can exchange 1 piece of gear that can be upgraded
Quick question, is it necessary to tuvalu the belt and accessories. I mean they can only be enchanted with copies only right?.
Managed to max tuvalu the rest of the gear
Thanks for the video btw
Yep definitely worth upgrading the accessories
for Hashashin,. Evasion or DR ? for the gloves?
Ok there was a slight confusion among friends about this... so newcomers or first time seasonal players get a full set of gear and returning players whove done season before get a choice of one piece to convert?
mate i have completed all quests for begginer weapon stone where i find begginer purple stones to enchant my weapon ?
First thanks for the video. I have one question: i am a returning player. My main char (Ranger) has no weapons and pri boss armor. Should i just buy tet gear or can i somehow get the season gear to that char? Dont want a new char as this one has extra weight and inv slots etc.
fughars time piece works
If i spent 200 dollars and used ur code thingy, how much do u get :O i been debating getting a bunch of outfits to dress up my maehwa
I know im quite late, Im a brand new player and ive made more than a few charcters. Can anyone tell me if only your second character gets a guaranteed boss item?
Caphras in EU is currently moving around 2,3 - 2,5 kk. I bought a lot of them for 2,2kk.
Absolutely insane rn homie. Dumping all my money in em aswell
In this video you are saying to go for PEN Tuvala in every slot but I have seen recommendations to not bother with certain slots because of the free capotia accs and armor you get. Are these recommendations correct and if so which slots should you not bother enhancing to PEN?
If you have multiple characters, its better to have them, even for boss alts or something. Your main will of course get better gear over time. So there is no downside to getting them.
Question please, I’m getting mixed answers: do you get the chance to exchange 7 armor and weapon pieces (Pen tuvala to tet boss) on your FIRST seasonal character, or only one?
First graduation can exchange all (weps + armors), 2nd and on is only 1 exchange
@@Jonlaw98I graduated my first season character but i didnt exhange my gears to boss gear. Can i do it on my second season character?
So I had this character before and it graduated from Season Server without me converting the Naru gears into Tuvala. So it's impossible for me to get Tuvala now right? Now, I made some research and I found you can convert Naru into Narchillan gear when you're not a season character. So my question is: Is Tuvala the same with Narchilllan? Is it worth it to go to Narchillan or should I just make a new Season Character?
I would love an answer on this
@@RedexTwo Hey man, I just exchanged my Naru gear for Narchillan as it was pretty easy to do. You just click and click lol. I thought you need to do some quests but no, once you have PEN V Naru, exchanging it just requires mouse click.
its weird im 56 now and i font have enough black stones for going full tuvala.. dont know where i went wrong.. mostly did main story and just did awakening and succession..
Ever considered doing a noob to pro series, fresh account and just giving tips throughout, i imagine a lot of people would appreciate visual learning
Just started the game so this video I refreshing
THIS was the guide I needed. My friend told me I can exchange my Pen Tuvala into Boss Gear. But I had no idea who to go to do that. So can Jetina can convert each Pen Tuvala gear and weapons without any other materials, do I need anything else before going to her outside of the gear?
U need to be a normal char, not a seaaon chat forthat. This means u need to graduate early or wait for season to end. Google yt what to do before graduation cuz once u graduate u cant go back.
@@djdrakespy Ahhhhhh that’s the piece of info I was missing. I thought it can be done as a Season Character. So basically she transforms the Pen Tuvala to Boss for free, but only for normal characters only? Also I know about the graduation thing, I’m gonna wait until the season is over bc there are still things I want to do. Thank you for this tho. 🤗
About using Fughar's timepiece to transfer exp to another character. Should I do that with full PEN Tuvala gear or with boss gear? This is my first character.
Gear doesn’t matter for this, it’ll just transfer your current seasonal out to normal servers, and clone another character to your currents with Level and skill point.
This is inaccurate, you have to use the timepiece before graduating or you won’t be able to use it, so there’s no option to timepiece with boss gear. Go to PEN tuvala and timepiece and then do all the conversions for your boss gear
Is this for the seasonal servers only? I took a long break about 5 years ago, and I'm just coming back, so I'm trying to find my way around with how to gear up.
@DisGuyyy make a new season character, it doesnt take long to get to 60 and you can always reroll later if you think your season class is uncomfortable to play
@juroleonard2448 hey thanks for the reply. This season character can be transferred to the regular server at a later time or what?
and if I'm only interested in pve, can I choose the free Livre pen gloves from main mission? I mean for pve does evasion matter more than accurasi?
So for PvE, in my testing at higher end grind spots, you feel safer with higher damage reduction more than evasion. Accuracy is not needed for PvE in 99% of spots
New player here, I finished the eternal mountain mediah questline and i ran out of beginner black stones trying to upgrade my naru chestpiece to Tuvala (DONT ASK HOW) is there a way for me to get more?
Yes, you can grind regular black stones if you’re desperate
can you still trade the naru gear for that narchallin gear or no? I recently started playing and found videos on this trade but the videos are 1-2 years old.
Yeah, you should be able to still get narchillan gear. Just talk to Fughar
Nice Gear roadmap!
One question about blackstar. Is it a thing that you could choose Godr-Ayed weapons instead?
Just in case the marked prices aren´t the same
If you are buying, godr-ayed, it is worth it, enhancing it past tri feels like a beginner trap
Even though you said that Griffon Helmet is a bit better stat wise than Giath Helmet, I need to stress the boss crystal problem: Giath doesnt exist as dark rift boss anymore, making it much harder to obtain the boss crystals than griffon's.
Giath doesnt exist anymore, so its harder to obtain the boss crystal than giaths? Im sure that was an error, but could you clarify again lol. Im some what new too trying to figure things out
@@Chizurii Sure! When you exchange your pen tuvala gear to tet boss gear, you will need boss crystals of the specific boss gear via the jetina npc to make it to pen boss gear (so griffon helmet needs griffon boss crystal etc.). You get these crystals (or auras to exchange for crystals) only if you kill the said boss. Griffon spawns regularly via your personal dark rifts, but you can kill giath only as random field boss spawn or you do boss scrolls, which are very slow for boss crystals. Hope that helps!
You can choose your daily boss scroll as giath, but still questionable worth.
@@HelgeM1407 "Giath doesnt exist as dark rift boss anymore, making it much harder to obtain the boss crystals than giath's" please correct this. This is too confusing
I have a character leveled but i did not make it a season character. I can not turn my Naru into tuvala gear. What should i do gear wise? Do i need to start the whole game over as a season character and lose all my paid outfits?
Get Narchillan gear from Fughar, its almost the same as Tuvala. (I think you need to be lvl 56+)
@@Jonlaw98 wow thanks! I thought I would need to lose it all.
What gear do you suggest for Ranger? Succession if that makes a difference, Ty :)
If you meant DR or Evasion, I think Evasion is the end goal
@@Jonlaw98 Also when the season ends, in your opinion, which piece of boss gear should i go for? tysm
@@LemonPie155 chest piece first, then helm or gloves and boots last
returning player here, i made a Drakania as a season character, is it better to use other class to grind HP/MP potion pieces? i average about 12.5k loot/hr with 250% loot scroll in Blood Wolf been there for 33hrs now.
Whichever class you grind the fastest on probably
@@Jonlaw98 yea, went from 12.5k to 21k per hour.
@@Jonlaw98 sorry about this but the free PEN Gear quest from Jetina says," The Boss Gear Rewarded by The Quest Cannot Be enhanced normally/with Caphras Stone". Does That mean i cant Caphras lvl 10 the Gear and make it into BIS gear?
@@dryagesteak3 You should be able to, try putting 1 caphras in
@@Jonlaw98 Nope its Gray Out :(
Guys help me out plis, i don't know how but i lost my naru helmet and naru ring, what should i do ?
you don't need to help me i just find out that you can but it from npc
is gaurdian awakening accuracy or evasion?
Accuracy/DR
im doing the main story and... everything takes like 500 hits to kill, still havnt gotten any naru gear. 💀
How many hours (roughly) to reach Fallen God Armour?
depends how much silver you make an hour, otherwise probably 30-40 to buy it at 1b/hr
are u not running double extra monster dmg artifacts?
With buffs, I overcap ap on every spot, I use 1 monster ap
Hello, what should I go for as a Woosa? Bherg's or Leebur's?!
Bheg
@@Jonlaw98 Ty!
im lost i only got 2 boss pieces afther graduating
how do I convert all my PEN Tuvala to TET Boss gear? I dont see an option from Jetina. I keep seeing videos where they say that Jetina will change all pen tuvala gear to boss gear if this is your first character, but I dont see any option for it. This is my first character.
Did you graduate from the season yet? Thats when you do it
@@Jonlaw98 not yet. Yeah I found out later that this needs my char to graduate and do it with converted Tuvala gear. Now my follow up question is, what happens if I do the TimePiece? I would need then to wait until the second character graduates, right? And does the first character end up with no equipment?
@@atmos929 so when u timepiece u can duplicate ur exp and lvl to another char that is under 25 lvl. That new char will become ur season char and ur now season char will become a normal char. U timepiece before season ends and its best to do it on a lvl 61 season char as it gets u a free lvl 61 char extra without having to lvl it. Ur gear from present season char u can move to the new char and u get 3 weapon exchange coupons to exchange them to what the new char uses, lets say maegu uses fans and guardian needs to use axe.
Level 50 full pen naru? Lol I am here struggling for duo T_T
Should I pick eva for woosa/ maegu?
evasion for maegu, DR woosa
Hello, I have a question. So about a year ago I started the game and my first character is a tamer. I reached lv 20 with her then I just stopped playing BDO. Fast forward about two weeks ago, I started playing BDO again and this time I created a second character, Drakania (seasonal), and reached lv 61 with full PEN Tuvala. My question is when the season is over, can I still have the chance to exchange all of my PEN Tuvala on my Drak to Boss gear? From what you said in the video, the second character can only exchange 1 piece of gear, so does that means my Drak can only exchange 1 boss gear?
Yes, just one piece of gear. From there you’re grinding, saving silver to swap out pieces. Seasonal gear is just a place holder for better armor
@@HybridReflexso does that means there is no way for me to exchange all my PEN tuvala to boss gear on my Drak? I think this second character of mine is the first seasonal char i created.
@@guerrillanation6486you can still do the full conversion. its a one time thing, but it can be your 15th character you do it on if u havent done it before. just speak to jetina after you finished your season, youre fine :)
Is Drakania Awakening accuracy or evasion?
Neither but go Bhegs :), Drak scales better off DR and some acc
2 Questions.
1. I got a friend to buy the game and he's never played. Can he do the Simplified Crossroad or will he have to do the Main Story?
2. What level would you Graduate from Season? Do you just complete the Pass Hit 60 and have full Pen Armor and Weapons?
I ask cause I just got all my weapons and armor minus accessories to Pen Tuvala but I'm only 56.
@@Dreyden12274wait I thought the timepiece turned you char into a different char? Essentially swapping classes
I recommend everyone do the FULL main quest atleast 1 time just so they can a feel of the game and how it works, after that then can do the simplified quest for their next character.
For the other quest I would HIGHLY recommend getting full pen tuvala and lvl 61 before you decide to time piece then he can start grinding places like trees as soon as he gets off of season server.
@@GZ187 More like it copies the level and skill points to another character, and transfers season benefits to a new character. So you'll have two lvl 61 characters. One season and one normal (non-season)
If it's your first character, finish msq to mediah to unlock simplified quest line so your new character can run that main quest line instead. Quest progression isn't transferred.
1. I believe you need to do the main story on 1 character before the simplified option becomes available
2. Graduate after 60, to finish up the season pass + get full PEN Tuvala
@@Jonlaw98 I got to 56 on day one and I got Full Pen Tuv today aside from Accessories.
which gloves should I choose as a archer?
I think end game is evasion, so leebur > green dahn
There are so many classes that im crippled with indecision on what i want my first character to be
just pick what u think looks the coolest, then try out different classes every season to find a fitting character to tag to your main (copys your gear to have you 2 main classes basically). you can start a season to pick a class u think you look cool, then use fughars timepiece to copy all your progress on another class you wanna try out :)
and last tip, dont dig too deep into tier lists, its not gonna help too much at the beginning and rather could make you not play a class that you could otherwise have enjoyed playing. good luck!
if any, Id suggest to better watch class preview/overview videos and not tier lists. they could flip upside down at any time anyways. just pick what you like and feels good.
when is the right moment to start looking towards pen blackstar weapons? in your progression video you don't specify that
Its honestly one of those whenever thats your next cheapest upgrades or whenever you get 130b+ to buy it
Im a new player, what would you advice me to upgrade with the J's hammer?
as boring as this sounds, stash it in a storage and forget it until much later, most of the time if you are below a certain threshold, using the hammer is a "waste"
that is the smartest thing to do, but you can also try to hit your weapons to pen with it, it just depends if you wanna play smart to wait or gamble to save a few extra weeks instantly
This hammer expires this month..
For weapon, PEN Blackstar if you have a 200+ failstack, otherwise just go for TET Blackstar or PEN boss.
OR you can choose to NOT use it at all, when failing you still lose money in the form of memory fragment, which is very a scarce resource right now.
As a new player I just used it to PEN my Boss gear. Lol.
Blackstar/Godr-Eyed Weps or Fallen God/Labreska/Dahn's
What’s the jetina quest I talk to her and she has nothing for me
make sure all your quests are enabled in the journal
Striker evasion? or DR?
One of the classes that does well with either one
Is there any options for me a player who came back to the game after several years away has full tet boss gear and refuses to play season ( i feels season stuff ruins the working for your gear side of the game)
If you graduate your character can you make a second seasonal character?
No but you can timepiece your first season character you made meaning you can choose another class to take your first season character place so that they can grind on season server and they will have the same level and skill points as your first season character.
nah, you can only make a single season character
1 season character per season
@@zavyaunmoore8615 Does the new character inherit the equipment?... does my previous character end up with no equipment?..
Next please make a guide on how to be a melee wizard / witch 😩
Play sorceress
Hell I got Dobart armor and I’m lv52😂
Bro where can i find the Extra Naru gear so i can fail stack?
talk to Fughar
@@Jonlaw98 The search tab won't show him even i type his name
I dont think u can failstack naru since ench rate is high. U need to failstack items with 2-3% ench rate and naru has a base of 30 i think.
How is sage right now ?
sage is very good
The more videos i watch of this game the more confused i get tbh
Is sorc succession evasion?
Yeah at end game
@@Jonlaw98 what should I work towards on the way to end game? Or should I just focus evasion all the way. Not really going to be doing pvp
@@brandonshepard5303 depends where you are at in the game, might need a few more details to point you in the right direction
@@Jonlaw98 basically end of season. Have the Magnus red nose boss piece and that's it. Going to push 61 before I time piece. Then I'll start progressing to boss gear
@@brandonshepard5303 Ok yeah, I would just stick with DR/Accuracy (Bheg & Urugon) until you're already full pen boss gear + weps at caphras 9+ with vells / crystals etc Then transition into evasion later at end game. Mostly because it'll be safer/easier to grind for silver until then
You totally left out that you can get naru stuff from a NPC if you need them.
You get full naru from quests anyways so it doesn’t really matter.
Ok since no one want to make a diagram of the gear progression. I'll just make one lol.
It's not really that simple, but you can use the gear planner on Garmoth.
@@bayrock1337 That's the issue. Most guides are overload with information and having a diagram will help a lot. It will help me visualize the endgame goals.
@@cowdash plase share it. been looking for a basic blueprint of "do this, now do that, and this next."
If you ever finished it can you please share it
Seems like that would take a while to complete.
With 290/292/344 and triple tet BS my next gear upgrade is so painful. 110% of my silver is going to purchase costumes & vendor crons. 😢 0/22 so far, will hit that 5.6% eventually 😣
Just save up and buy the PEN
Im 289/332 i got super lucky and hit pen blackstar awakening last night with j hammer
With vel heart and a tet tungrad earring as next upgrades ill have 295 ap im so hype
As someone who got spooned on PEN Blackstar I have the opposite issue.
nobody cares man
Lvl 50 in full pen naru😂😂. I'm lvl 56 and can't get any naru gear to tet.
🤔
Must be doing something wrong you dont even have to use stacks on it, i would do story or some quests to get naru stuff.
@williammckinney8076 I'm in Altinova right now questing. Not sure how much story is left. All I've done for leveling is questing with only 1 hour of pure grinding which was yesterday.
Gl kill evasion people 😢
I had to google "what does it mean to get gear to pen". It means to enhance your gear with black stones until it reaches +40.
You gotta get better at Google.
@@bayrock1337 You gotta get better at empathy. This game is hard to learn. Correction: It's +15 then you go up to level 5 with a chance to go down a level every time you enchant. That is some frustrating RNG but at least now I understand it. You really think you're doing it wrong when you burn through all those beginner blackstones.
Progression = grind silver and buy gear. Upgrading is a joke.
Should i sell caphras in order to buy BS gear? or should i keep them?
Blackstar armors are new player bait imo, just keep adding caphras to your gear
@@Jonlaw98 i meant for BS weapons mostly i know the boss armors are fine for now at PEN but how about the weapons? still save and use the caphras?
@@edbusta5982 Hard to say when is the right time to transition into Blackstar weps, since the benefit is pretty much for PvE. I guess when thats your next cheapest upgrade is the right time
@@Jonlaw98 So, Sell the caphras buy tet or higher BS weapons then grind money to buy more caphras and use those?
guys im 51 and i still dont have enough blackstones to make my naru pen i did the story and the season pass rewards T.T
You didn't do enough of the main story keep going.
Is maegu succ evasion?
Ya
Yes
Nice I went maegu too.
