Central Market Price Cap Adjustments for Crafted Items
In Black Desert, Adventurers can craft various items like cooking/alchemy tools, wagons, and fishing rods via workshops. While many of these items remain highly useful, their Central Market prices have changed little over time. Considering the rising cost of crafting materials, Adventurers often faced a loss when selling these items. To address this, we have increased the Max Price for select crafted items on the Central Market. We hope this change allows crafters to turn a profit and buyers to benefit from increased supply. In addition, we have also raised the price of buff items obtained via Royal Workshops so they can be sold for greater profit as needed.- Adjusted the Central Market Max Price for certain items.
- Due to changes in price, all orders and listings for these items were reset during the Apr 16, 2026 (Thu) maintenance.

Node/Conquest War
We have recently received reports from Adventurers that ships were being used to destroy annex buildings too quickly in Node Wars and Conquest Wars. Upon investigation, we confirmed that multiple ships were dealing more damage than intended.While using ships in inland PvP content such as Node Wars and Conquest Wars can be a strategic option, we want to avoid it becoming a mandatory tactic due to excessive damage. Therefore, adjustments have been made to ship damage.
- Decreased the damage dealt by the following ships to Node/Conquest War Forts and Annexes by about 86%:
- Epheria Sailboat
- Epheria Frigate
- Improved Epheria Sailboat
- Improved Epheria Frigate
- Epheria Caravel
- Epheria Galleass
- Epheria Carrack
- Panokseon
- Doubled the damage dealt by Guild Galleys to Node/Conquest War Forts and Annexes.

UI
Worker List Improvements
- Improved the UI so you can press the working worker's node name to move to it on the World Map.
- Added the Fully Recover Stamina function.
- You can now recover the Stamina of all workers to their maximum at once.
- This function uses additional recovery items to recover a worker's Stamina up to the maximum.
- The recovered Stamina will not exceed the maximum.
- Example: If a worker has 33/35 Stamina, using Grilled Bird Meat (+3 Stamina) will result in 35/35, not 36/35.
Tag Character UI Improvements
We have improved functions related to the Tag Character UI, as it was difficult to check the list and identify the character you are currently logged in with.Firstly, we have reorganized the character list to fit more on a single screen so that multiple characters can be checked simultaneously. Additionally, your current character will always appear at the top of the list, with a border around it to make it easier to identify.
- Improved the UI to show more characters on a single screen instead of one line at a time.
- Improved the list so the currently online character appears first.
- Applied a border effect around the portrait of the currently online character for easier identification.
