MONSTER
We've improved both the Dark Rift and Atoraxxion content, with better rewards now available.First, for Dark Rifts, we've removed accessories from the reward pool and significantly increased the amount of Cron Stones you can obtain, better reflecting the current state of the game.
For Atoraxxion, we've unified the difficulty level to match current player engagement. The weekly boss subjugation count has been reduced to once per week, but we've boosted the rewards—adding more Cron Stones and increasing the overall reward to match what was previously offered for two completions. Additionally, you'll no longer need the Dawn Key to claim your rewards, so missing out due to the key requirement is now a thing of the past.
These changes are just the beginning. Moving forward, we'll continue to explore and implement new ways to reduce the progression burden and support your growth as adventurers.

New Wild Horse Breeds
One of the most exciting parts of Training is that moment of anticipation when you check a tamed Wild Horse at the stable, hoping you've found a rare gem, and the little thrill when you actually do.To let you enjoy these moments more often, we've added new breeds of Wild Horses that weren't available before and improved the system so you'll encounter them more frequently.
- The mountains and fields of Black Desert now provide a better environment for wild horses to flourish, allowing adventurers to capture a greater variety of wild horses.
- New wild horse breeds now appear in the same locations as existing wild horses, each with set spawn rates.
- With new wild horse breeds, the spawn rate of rare wild horses has increased, and the spawn rates of common wild horses have been adjusted.

QUEST & KNOWLEDGE
Hitting Lv. 60 is a key milestone for most adventurers, as it unlocks the majority of skills and allows you to fully utilize Skill Add-ons. Until now, even after finishing the main questline through the Mediah region, adventurers would typically find themselves stuck in the mid-to-high Lv. 50s, needing to do extra PvE just to reach Lv. 60.
We've also updated main quest rewards to better match the new early-game gear system. As you work through the main story, you'll now earn enhancement materials for Tuvala gear, making it easier to power up as you go.

| [Mountain of Eternal Winter] In Search of the Flame that Consumes Gods | Complete the questline to reach Lv. 56 |
| [Lv. 51 Mediah] Dark Energy that Looms Over Mediah |
Complete [Mediah] Reliving the Darkness to reach Lv. 60
(When starting [Lv. 51 Mediah] Dark Energy that Looms Over Mediah at Lv. 56)
