2 years later, new player here. Thank you so much for this guide. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to switch between the two without spending money to something, but I save the two presets and now I can swap between them!
Super useful for us up n coming newbies, cheers mate! I'm one of those pack-rats who hoards everything & I didn't know what to do with those skill coupons lol.
Ty for this. When I originally played in 2016/17, there was no Succession playstyle and I was getting super anxious about being able to try stuff out. The fact you can swap over whenever you want at the Skill Instructor is such a relief!
Man, I just started playing BDO because of how fun it looked like to play and got to awakening Sage. You´re sooo helpful I wanted to try succession too for free without making another character so thanks! Subscribed!
Thank you the wording on the site and when succession first released was so weird. for the longest time i thought you had to pick one and you were locked out of the other.
You can also use these presets and a kind of free skill reset. Put one point in a skill you know you will always use. Then save the preset. When you switch to the preset it will reset all your skill points except for the one skill you saved. You can then freely change around your skills, as long as you don't save over it. If you are above lvl 57 you will need an Armstrong's skill guide or Old moon book running to clear all of your skill points to create the save. But if you do then when you get the free skill reset after your awakening/succession quest, you can always go back to your save to reset your skills. This is great when you dont have alot of skill points yet and you want to try out different skills/builds.
Thanks for this! I deliberately didn't complete my succession or skill point coupon because: *I thought my choice would invariably be locked and I know succession requires a lot more skill points than awakening. *I was trying to save my skill point resets. Wish I saw this video when I was still level 56. Lol. Level 59 witch considering succession. I was planning to grind 262 ap, and 2050 skill points. ( I'm 180 ap and have around 800/900ish skill points). Your video saved me a great deal of trouble. At least I can look at succession now and gain some familiarity and comfortability to it while keeping the things I love about awakening. Makes me like the game even more! Thanks again for the video!!
Ive played it in the very early days of EU release and it was battle for credit cards, absolutely atrocious business model this game have. Why people play actually approve this by playing the game it self is beyond me. HOWEVER i love to watch your videos. They are very satisfying :D i guess it has something to do where you watch competent people doing things.
Eh, I think I’ll just stick with awakening. Really like being able to use both axe & Shield, and the Jordun, unleashing both storm and dragon fire upon my enemies as the situation demands. But it is nice to know that you can swap between both classes like this, will keep it in mind, lol.
Way better if you save with no skills selected . All you need is to add 1 point and save the build. In this way if you fuck up the build when you change you will get all the points back.
I Know it is 2 years ago but i want to ask you a question if you don't mind: why i choose Between Awakening and Succession when i can use both as when i locked it when i arrived 56 Lv.? I mean if i choose Awakening all Succession will unlock then i just work with Awaken only is it better than before ? 2- will my other weapons related to Succession will be unuseful ?
I'm looking to copy my UI to each preset. Know how to do that? I have a PvE Succ DK with PvE Skill Addons I have a PvP Succ DK with PvP Skill Addons The UI is perfect on my PvE DK but I don't have any skill hotbars set-up on my PvP DK. How do I do that without going thru the process again?
I used to enjoy the fact that I could change skills at will at 56 while having both awakening and succession but now that I've timepieced a toon to 61, I bypassed that opportunity, now I have to use the skill reset thingy... dang. I used to try to save it on the toons where I enjoyed Awakening a lot more. Also, TIL there are loyalty 1-day value packs... takes 2 weeks worth of loyalty though and with account deletion in '21 I still need all my character slots.
there are skill coupons and a skill reset coupon for completing your awakening and succesion questlines. What most people do is have one coupon for awakening and another for succession, then just swap whenever they want.
Hey good vid as always BDO Jesus. One question: My character is a Maehwa and seeing your main seem to be Musa, should I bother with Awakening at all as a Maehwa? I mostly do PvE clearly and i dont plan on doing any PvP any time soon. Cheers and thanks!
theres one more trick- save your succession preset and your awakening preset with NONE of skillpoint taken. :) that way you can keep using ALL your skillpoint whenever you want however you want with only 10 mins of gap. ^^ hope this neat trick helps. cheers.
im a noob in this game, and my question is, why the macro for breath with sprint (on characters) doesnt work anymore??? ty, great channel and great guides man, new sub, take care :-)
I had this set up and then one patch reset my skill preset slots. So there's no guarantee that this method will be always available even if you do this.
question, im a returnee, i had saved skill preset both awakening and succesion for all my character but after logging in today, they all gone and all my saved preset went blank, now i cant switch into awakening or succesion anymore, how they do this to us returnee, now im thinking going back since it hard to get armstrong and im not paying this game anymore.
So just to make sure I got this right. Say I only have 800 sp when I make each one of my presets (awakening and succession) and then I continue to grind for days and end up with let’s just say 100 more sp. Am I able to spend that 100 in each preset separately? Or how are the extra skill points allocated?
Hi, a very noob question maybe. For the Nova class at aweakened you can use the sting weapon that comes (succession cant). So when switching the skill to succession do you first need to uneqiept the aweakened weapon? So it doesnt cause any confic when trying you switch between succession and weakened skill everytime? Just adding this to more clarity. When you use the armstrong item it only says you can reset/change skill within 1day max. And that Armstrong event end does that man your stuck with the Skill you last used. For example if you have Nova and test succession skills but didnt like it. Bit dont change anything within 1 day! After Armstrong item expires in 1day your stuck with the Succession and cant go back to Aweakned? No matter if you use the preset 1 or preset 2 at the NPC! Whats your take on this Levi?
Presets can swap whenever you want. Make 1 for awakening and 1 for succession. Keep your weapons on at all times, 30% of your overall AP comes from your off weapon (sting or mace).
Unlike all my previous characters I only got 1 skill coupon. Completed both awakening and succession questlines and never got the 2nd. This was my time piece character so im wondering if its a bug with those characters?
Just started playing bdo chose the berserker as my first class and now I've unlocked succ and awkn. But I'm still indecisive about which to choose 😅. Is this guide still viable today?
We need more vedios in 2dside scroller course I need to make a swing rope like in claw game 1998 , i tried hard to find a toturial for that and i couldn't Please help 😟👉👈
you can buy a random dye from pearl shop - no guarantee you'll get what you want but it is possible. Can snipe them on CM but low likelihood anybody sells!

Man I just startled playing Nova and i love both her awakening and succession. I'm so glad this exists.
After watching about ten of your guides, you earned my subscription. Thank you and awesome job as always.

I also have linked your videos to a few friends who are also new to black desert online like me. Keep up the great work!!!
Being able to save and swap between skill presets is really handy.
Man! hahaha I been carrying the coupons for over a month lmao. thanks I appreciate it. I was saving them till I got a higher AP and DP haha
thanks my man
felt really stupid despite playing for far longer than i care to admit i never really dabbled into the skill presets untill now
Glad this video helped you!

Great video for a noob like me; thank you for walking through everything to make it extra clear how it works and what the requirements are. +1
Oh, I didn't know toons can go whitehaired while staying in O'dyllita!
These videos are great guides for this game thank you :)
Thank you! I've been keeping the coupon in my inventory because I thought it would reset my skill point xD
Thank you so much for this guide

Wooo so i dont need to decide to play only succession or awakening, thanks!
The sigh of relief i have now, thanks
you are most helpful! Thank you!

why i choose Between Awakening and Succession when i can use both as when
i locked it when i arrived 56 Lv.?
I mean if i choose Awakening all Succession will unlock then i just work with Awaken only
is it better than before ?
2- will my other weapons related to Succession will be unuseful ?
thanks for the guide, the game dosent tell me these things so im left scratching my head
I'm looking to copy my UI to each preset. Know how to do that?
I have a PvE Succ DK with PvE Skill Addons
I have a PvP Succ DK with PvP Skill Addons
The UI is perfect on my PvE DK but I don't have any skill hotbars set-up on my PvP DK. How do I do that without going thru the process again?
I used to enjoy the fact that I could change skills at will at 56 while having both awakening and succession but now that I've timepieced a toon to 61, I bypassed that opportunity, now I have to use the skill reset thingy... dang.

Ummm I am still wondering how I use my awakening weapon I cant seem to add any of the skills
Hey, could you make a tutorial on alchemy stones ?
im lv 61.5 done awaken-succ quests and only have 1 preset cant find any quest more any help?
I lost my awakening skills, dont know how can i return them.
Hey good vid as always BDO Jesus.
One question: My character is a Maehwa and seeing your main seem to be Musa, should I bother with Awakening at all as a Maehwa? I mostly do PvE clearly and i dont plan on doing any PvP any time soon.
Cheers and thanks!
I play succession maewha and it's solid. Both specs are viable though
@@EvilDoUsHarm Thanks! I'll do the same thing you did in this vid and try to have a preset for both succession and awaken
Does the Skill enhancement options save between the slots? or do you have to go to the skill instructor to respec everytime you switch?
theres one more trick- save your succession preset and your awakening preset with NONE of skillpoint taken. :) that way you can keep using ALL your skillpoint whenever you want however you want with only 10 mins of gap. ^^ hope this neat trick helps. cheers.
I am egyptian too but lived in America all my life want to play?
can u buy a armstrong skill reset with loyalties or pearls?
Am I going crazy or does the skill instructor not let you swap anymore??
im a noob in this game, and my question is, why the macro for breath with sprint (on characters) doesnt work anymore??? ty, great channel and great guides man, new sub, take care :-)
It help a whole lot thanks
Wow, your witche's face is beautiful. Have you put that in the beauty album to share?
What about the skill add-ons?
I had this set up and then one patch reset my skill preset slots. So there's no guarantee that this method will be always available even if you do this.
question, im a returnee, i had saved skill preset both awakening and succesion for all my character but after logging in today, they all gone and all my saved preset went blank, now i cant switch into awakening or succesion anymore, how they do this to us returnee, now im thinking going back since it hard to get armstrong and im not paying this game anymore.
This really helps.. thanks madude..

I want to apply some skill points, is that later on into the game?
wow amazing info ty 👍
is this guide still works on 2024 ?
Will the skill addons carry over as well?
I am leveling my first character do you have any videos on items you collect on the way. What not to sell or throw away? Thanks.
THANK YOU!
imagine watching this video after your armstrong has already ran out
POG
BRUH THATS ME LMAO

Keep your weapons on at all times, 30% of your overall AP comes from your off weapon (sting or mace).
Great stuff.
Does the skill addon get saved as well?
does it include skill add ons retained ever preset? or do i have to change it everytime i swap?
I have some characters that were awakening before this update. How do I get a skill coupon for those characters?
Unlike all my previous characters I only got 1 skill coupon. Completed both awakening and succession questlines and never got the 2nd. This was my time piece character so im wondering if its a bug with those characters?
:D Your witch is beautiful!
0:01 noice 💦💦
What about skill add ons though?
Yes everything is saved, even skill cooldown slot for when you edit your UI.
Just started playing bdo chose the berserker as my first class and now I've unlocked succ and awkn. But I'm still indecisive about which to choose 😅. Is this guide still viable today?
Thx
I am using corsair and i can only choose succesion. Why? Anyone know?
do your awakening questline. talk to the black spirit, and select the quest from the menus.
@@EvilDoUsHarm ok thx
OMG I did not know this lol, too bad I stopped playing the game
Cannot find your video about daily naval fame recovery can you copy the link thanks ")
Still work ?
I don’t understand what this skill preset feature does. Can someone dumb this down a bit? Lol
well, good to know i fucked up already
Hello can you make a video about reaching 300 ap for mid game players
300 ap is end game thousands of hours or dollars.
We need more vedios in 2dside scroller course
I need to make a swing rope like in claw game 1998 , i tried hard to find a toturial for that and i couldn't
Please help 😟👉👈
can you still do this?
What if you lock some skills, is that also saved?
Everything is saved
Holy shit this is broken thanks. I need a 3rd one though.
Also is there a way to get permanent Dye ?
you can buy a random dye from pearl shop - no guarantee you'll get what you want but it is possible. Can snipe them on CM but low likelihood anybody sells!
does it apply to add ons? aswell
yes it applies
