June 11th (Thu) Patch Notes
Hello Adventurers, This is the Black Desert Console Service Team.
We're informing you of the latest update applied after the scheduled maintenance on Thursday, June 11.
Today's update brings guild alliance, Node/Conquest Wars, War Heroes, base servers, World Boss Quint/Muraka revamp, barter improvements, Altar of Blood - The 2nd Abyssal Illusion, and more.
We hope these help you embark on better adventures in game, Adventurers!
Additionally, our next character balance adjustments will focus on PvE. We plan to share details regarding these PvE balance adjustments sequentially.
We will continue to monitor each class's performance to ensure their unique identity and role across various types of content.
Thank you.

After the last update, we have adjusted Maehwa Awakening's assassination capabilities. While our goal was to balance her ability to deal melee damage and assassinate for better flexibility, her current performance in both areas has fallen short of expectations.
Furthermore, to better fit her improved assassination kit, her survivability has been adjusted to depend more on using the Invincible effect to avoid damage rather than engaging in direct confrontations.

- Changed the Skill Add-on tier to 1.
- Removed the combo performed by holding RB/R1 after Moonbreak.

- Decreased the PvP damage ratio for Chaos: Red Moon and Absolute: Red Moon: 70.06% → 40%.



- Removed Down Smash.

Kunoichi Awakening is a melee DPS and an assassin. However, because she could easily maintain Super Armor to deal damage safely despite her assassination potential, we have adjusted her skill combos to leave appropriate openings, bringing her more in line with her intended role.We have also adjusted Penumbral Blade, an exceptionally fast and powerful skill, to give opponents a fair chance to react by increasing its wind-up time and removing its CC effects.

- Changed the defensive effect: Super Armor → Forward Guard.

- Changed so that Stamina does not recover during the skill motion.
- Changed so that defensive effects are removed immediately after attacking.

- Changed Stiffness on hits to apply in PvE only.

- Added Stiffness on hits.
- Removed Down Smash.

- Changed the defensive effect: Super Armor → Super Armor when using the skill.
We have reduced the damage of Kunoichi Succession's Super Armor skills used for CC or direct combat, as they were overperforming relative to her role as an assassin.Conversely, we have increased the damage and stability of Wheel of Wrath, allowing Kunoichi to better fulfill her role through the explosive damage from the Ninjutsu buffs.

- Changed the defensive effect: Super Armor → Forward Guard.

- Added Super Armor during the skill.
- Changed Floating on hit to apply in PvE only.

- Removed Recover HP per hit.
- Changed the extra attacks to dash forward in the character's direction instead of tracking targets.

Lahn Awakening has been performing exceptionally well, driven by the increased utility of Deadly Dance since the last update. To address this, we changed Deadly Dance's required resource to Stamina and increased its cooldown, encouraging more careful use of this dashing skill.Additionally, we adjusted the PvP damage of certain skills to make it harder to secure kills using only Super Armor combos after landing a CC on a target.

- Changed the resource consumed upon skill use from WP to 200 Stamina.
- Changed the cooldown: 6 sec → 8 sec.
- Adjusted PvP damage for the following skill:

Striker Awakening is a melee DPS that excels at disrupting enemy formations with Battle Cry. While absorbing enemy damage is necessary during these disruptions, he has been able to sustain combat with high survivability even outside of these situations. Therefore, we are making adjustments to reduce his overall survivability.
- Changed the Recover HP per hit:+98 → +200.

- Removed the Recover HP effect when using the skill.

- Removed the Recover HP effect when using the skill.

We have adjusted Mystic Awakening's Dragon's Rip to address situations where opponents were pulled in and left with no way to escape.The defensive effect for Dragon's Rip has been changed to Forward Guard, making her vulnerable to CC while using the skill. However, its combo options have been improved so she can cancel the skill and use other skills depending on the situation.

- Changed the defensive effect: Super Armor → Forward Guard.
- Improved the skill to allow faster combos into Flash Step, Silent Step, and Mass Destruction during the skill.
Mystic Succession has been adjusted to allow for more aggressive gameplay. She can now better employ her core combat cycle of quickly recovering Martial Spirit through combos to power up her main skills by consuming 3 Martial Spirits even in more chaotic fights. However, the window to extend skill combos using Down Smash has been reduced accordingly.
- Removed Air Smash and Down Smash on last attack hits.

- Added Super Armor during the skill.
- Removed Stiffness on attack 1 hits and Knockdown on last attack hits.
- Changed to be unavailable during cooldown.

- Added Forward Guard during the skill.
- Changed Recover 300 HP when using the skill to Recover 350 HP per hit.
- Removed Down Smash.

44.59% damage in PvP only
|

Guardian Succession has been improved to more effectively absorb incoming damage, focusing more on applying follow-up damage to targets downed by allies rather than proactively suppressing multiple enemies with CC. However, her ability to pressure a single enemy with CC has been improved.
- Changed to apply the Recover HP effect of Succession: Dragon's Calling to attack 1 as well.
- Removed All Evasion Decrease on hits and replaced it with All AP -20 for 10 sec on hits.

- Changed the defensive effect: Forward Guard → Super Armor.
- Changed Floating to apply in PvE only.
- Increased the PvP damage ratio of Prime: Mutilation III: 27.61% → 36.3%.

- Changed the defensive effect: Forward Guard → Super Armor during the skill.

- Changed the defensive effect: Super Armor while moving, Forward Guard during attack → Super Armor during the skill.
- Improved to combo better into Prime: Mutilation after attacking.
- Increased the window during which the skill can combo into its attack motion.
- Increased the window during which the character can rotate toward the camera direction while moving.
- Changed the skill so the character no longer rotates toward the camera direction while attacking.

- Changed to not combo into Frenzy while moving with the skill.

- Improved to combo better into Avalanche Strike and Mutilation after attack 2.

Drakania Succession is intended to thrive on the battlefield, leveraging the relentless healing of Succession: Markthanan's Heart to continue fighting.Following the previous increase to her HP recovery, we have added an effect that stockpiles ions to her initiating skill, Succession: Azure Onslaught. Additionally, we have made improvements so that when she stockpiles ions, whether by dealing close-range damage with Markthanan's Dominion or by taking risks with Prime: Skewer, she can unleash even more empowered attacks.

- Changed Stockpile ions in your shard on hits: 6 → 9.

- Changed Stockpile ions in your shard on inner attack hits: 3 → 6.

- Changed Stockpile 3 ions into your shard on hits: 3 → 6.

- Added Stockpile 3 ions into your shard on hits.

- Changed the cooldown: 12 sec → 10 sec.

Unlike other classes, Woosa's movement skills functioned differently depending on whether she moved forward, backward, left, or right. With this update, we have standardized how her movement skills work, making directional movement more intuitive.


- Changed Chain: Flitting Step to activate after Yangban Step.
- Changed Flitting Step to be available during cooldown.
- Accordingly, Chain: Flitting Step can now activate in place of Yangban Step or Flitting Step when those skills are on cooldown.
- The way Yangban Step, Flitting Step, and Chain: Flitting Step activate when comboed with each other has been changed in line with the changes above.
- Changed so that Stamina does not recover until the skill motion ends during Yangban Step, Flitting Step, or Chain: Flitting Step.

- [Mystic] Dragon's Rip - Fixed the issue where the pull effect did not immediately disappear even when hit by CC during the skill.

Barter Improvements
To better accommodate new Adventurers venturing into the Great Ocean for the first time, several improvements have been made to barters.
First, three barter routes are now available even to those who haven't bartered before, making it easier to accumulate their total barter count. Additionally, we have halved the number of total barters required to unlock the maximum number of normal barter routes. The list of normal items that can be exchanged for Lv. 1 trade goods has also been revamped to better suit the current environment.
The Crow Coin Shop has also received several changes. With the recent addition of Lv. 6 and Lv. 7 barter routes, more Adventurers have been looking to craft and upgrade ships. To facilitate faster progression, the prices of related materials have been adjusted.
Furthermore, items in the Crow Shop with daily purchase limits have been removed and replaced with those with weekly limits, allowing you to acquire larger quantities at a lower price. Finally, Tidal Black Stones for ship enhancement and Vell's Fine Powder Boxes that recharge Alchemy Stones have been added to the shop. Sea Crystals, which were difficult to obtain, are now also available for purchase with Crow Coins.
- Changed the requirements for expanding inland trade routes based on total barters as follows:
- The following changes apply only to Normal through Lv. 5 barters.
- Crow Coin and Margoria's Star trade routes remain unchanged.
- Adjusted the total barter counts required for trade route expansion to more intuitive values.
- Example: 2,551 barters -> 2,500 barters.

Central Market Max Price Adjustments
We have adjusted the Central Market max prices for certain items for the same reason as the April official server update: to address items that are rarely traded because their Central Market prices are too low compared to the cost of obtaining or crafting them.
We hope this update helps sellers earn more and helps buyers more easily purchase the items they need for more enjoyable adventures.
- Changed the Central Market max price for certain items.
- Following the price adjustments, all pending orders and listings for the items below were reset during the June 11, 2026 (Thu) maintenance.
MONSTER
World Bosses Quint and Muraka Improvements
Quint and Muraka are special World Bosses featuring unique mechanics that allow Adventurers to use cannons. Initially, many Adventurers used these cannons to subjugate the bosses, making full use of them.
With this update, we have removed all part destruction mechanics to minimize unnecessary hassle and make the combat more intuitive and faster. For Muraka, the cannon mechanic has been removed entirely, allowing you to experience the battle using only your character's strength. For Quint, cannon use is no longer required but now deals more damage than general attacks, offering more freedom in your strategy.
- Adjusted the World Boss Quint as follows:
- Quint now uses attacks that empower specific body parts.
- Hitting the empowered body part with a cannon will deal extra damage and gradually weaken Quint.
- Improved Monster Bashers to deal additional damage to Quint.
- Quint now uses attacks that empower specific body parts.
- Adjusted the World Boss Muraka as follows:
- Removed the part-destruction mechanic to ensure a more natural combat flow.
- Added a new combat mechanic involving Muraka's Black Gems.
- Increased the loot rewards obtainable for defeating World Bosses Quint and Muraka.

NODE/CONQUEST WAR
Guild Alliance
- Added the guild alliance system.
- Alliance allows 2 or more guilds to join forces to fight as one in Node/Conquest Wars.
- An alliance can be formed by sending invitations to other guild masters logged into the same server.
- A guild must have at least 10 members to join an alliance.
- A maximum of 10 guilds or 150 members can join an alliance.
- Guilds cannot join an alliance if they are are already occupying a node or territory, or while a Node/Conquest War is already in progress.
- The founding guild of an alliance becomes the "Leading Guild". Its guild master can name the alliance in the Guild - Guild Alliance tab, and send invitations after setting the guild name, members, and tax distribution ratio via Add Guild (LS).
- The Leading Guild can register an alliance emblem by purchasing [Guild] Emblem Certificate every Monday. The alliance's emblem and name will only be displayed during Node/Conquest Wars, and in the region upon occupying a node or territory.
- Invitations can only be sent to guild masters who are online, and the tax distribution ratio must total at 100% for an alliance to be formed.
- When inviting a guild, the alliance leader cannot set its member limit below its current membership. Once the guild joins the alliance, it cannot recruit beyond that limit.
- For example:
- If Guild A has 45/100 members and is assigned a member limit of 50, it can recruit up to 5 more members while in the alliance.
- If Guild B has 20/100 members and is assigned a member limit of 20, it cannot recruit any new members while in the alliance.
- A guild's assigned member limit cannot be lower than its current membership.
- If an invited guild master disconnects or changes servers, the invitation expires. All invited guilds must accept before the alliance can be formed. To reinvite a guild, the Leading Guild's master must cancel and resend the invitation.
- During a Node/Conquest War, Fort/Command Post/Field HQ can only be constructed by the Leading Guild's Officer or above, and annexes can be constructed by each guild's Quartermaster or above. Purchasing a siege building consumes Guild Funds of each guild.
- Any elephants or galleys from the guilds other than the Leading Guild are automatically stored in the Guild Wharf during Node/Conquest Wars, and cannot be used until the war ends.
- Taxes collected upon occupying a node/territory are distributed according to the set ratio.
- The distribution ratio can only be changed while forming the alliance, and cannot be changed during Node/Conquest Wars, and Red Battlefield.
- Alliances who have declared war can attack each other if a Node/Conquest War isn't in progress.
- If a guild leaves an alliance, the whole alliance is disbanded. However, guilds cannot leave the alliance while occupying a node or territory.
War Hero
- Added the War Hero system. Adventurers can now join another guilld's wars, Node/Conquest Wars and even receive rewards.
Joining and Hiring

- You can only join on the same server. You cannot join with a guild item in possession, and must either sell the guild item at the guild shop or store it in the guild storage.
- You cannot join a guild during a Node/Conquest War, or while War Heroes are being reset for 10 minutes after the Node/Conquest War ends.
- Guilds currently occupying a territory cannot hire a War Hero, and its members also cannot join another guild as one.
- Guilds in an alliance can hire a War Hero, and members of an alliance can also become a War Hero.
- A guild master cannot become a War Hero. Also, a guild with a War Hero cannot create an alliance.
- Up to 3 War Heroes can be hired.
Activity
- War Heroes can participate in Node/Conquest Wars as a part of the guild they joined.
- War Heroes gain access to guild information, guild member status, guild skills, alliance and its member status, and Node/Conquest War status. They can also board the 2-player mounts, use the Guild Summon Scrolls, and access the annexes. (However, the hero cannot build an annex.)
- Guild skills are applied to War Heroes.
- Guild chat is open to War Heroes.
- Allowances can be given to War Heroes, and the Adventurer with an allowance gains access to the guild funds.
- War Heroes cannot access guild missions, guild history, guild recruitment, and guild crafting. They cannot use guild storage or guild skill points.
- Even if a guild with a War Hero occupies a territory, the hero will not be affected by the territory occupation benefits for Item Drop Rate when defeating monsters in the territory.
Reward
- Upon signing a War Hero contract, the hero immediately receives a portion of the guild funds as a deposit. (max 10 million Silver)
- When signing a War Hero contract, a victory bonus in addition to the deposit can be set. When the Node/Conquest War is won, the War Hero immediately receives the victory bonus. (max 20 million Silver)
- The amount of deposit and victory bonus can't exceed the maximum funds a guild owns. Unlike the deposit which is immediately provided, the victory bonus will be deducted from the guild funds, then given when the war is won. If the guild does not win, the bonus will be refunded to the guild funds.
- Refunds will immediately be made to the guild upon losing a Node/Conquest War. The amount will automatically be refunded 10 minutes after the war ends if liberated or if the guild does not participate in the Node/Conquest War.
Termination of Contract
- An Adventurer who is in a guild as a War Hero cannot terminate the contract on their own. Contracts for all Adventurers who are hired as War Hero will be terminated 10 minutes after the Node/Conquest War ends.

- Guild items owned by a War Hero will be automatically deleted upon contract termination.

UI
Monster Zone Info UI Improvements
Monsters in Black Desert are categorized by species, including Human, Demihuman, Kamasylvian, Edanian, and Normal.

Arena of Solare Ally Location Indicator
In Arena of Solare, 3v3 PvP content, tracking the shifting positions of allies and enemies is a key to victory. As Adventurers who aren't used to such content may find it difficult to stay aware of moving allies, we've added a new Ally Location Indicator function, which was also previously introduced as Arena of Solare HUD. Since combat is the priority, this UI has been designed with a translucent opacity to minimize visual clutter.- Added a feature to display the location and status of allies in the Arena of Solare.
- Class icons for allies will move along the edges of the screen.
- The edge icons will disappear when an ally's character is visible on the screen.
- Icons are semi-transparent by default and will become opaque with an added effect when an ally is hit by a CC skill.
- The number displayed at the bottom of the icon indicates the distance between your character and the ally.

Item Drop Cheer Animation Removal
Previously, when you obtained a valuable item during your adventure, your character would cheer. While this clearly indicated that you had obtained a valuable item, the animation could put players in danger when it triggered unexpectedly in the heat of battle.To keep the notification while preventing this risk, we have removed the cheering animation and added a UI notification instead.
- Improved the system so that a notification is displayed instead of the character performing a cheer animation when obtaining high-grade loot during PvE.
- However, characters will still perform the cheer animation as before when obtaining high-grade items through other means, such as opening a box.
- The notification UI position can be adjusted through Edit UI.
Arena of Solare Penalty
Thank you for your continued interest and support for the ongoing Arena of Solare regular season. Today, we would like to introduce a new system being added to Arena of Solare.Arena of Solare is 3v3 team-based PvP content. Naturally, each team member's performance is a crucial factor directly tied to victory.
Recently, we have received many reports of Adventurers entering Arena of Solare and remaining idle, disrupting the gameplay experience of other Adventurers. In this update, we are introducing a penalty system for such idle, or "AFK," behavior.
Going forward, inactivity in Arena of Solare will result in penalties based on specific criteria. The severity of these penalties will increase with repeated offenses, up to a 30-day matchmaking restriction.
However, because the system applies the criteria uniformly when determining whether certain behavior is problematic, we have set the criteria very carefully to reduce the chance of Adventurers being penalized despite making a genuine effort to play.
This system is part of our efforts to improve the overall Arena of Solare experience for Adventurers. With this goal in mind, we will continue seeking better ways to improve the system.
We hope you continue to enjoy the remainder of the Arena of Solare regular season.
Thank you.
- Added a penalty system for players who remain idle or perform equivalent behaviors during Arena of Solare ranked matches.
- Penalties increase with repeated offenses, up to a maximum 30-day matchmaking restriction for Arena of Solare.
- Penalized Adventurer will receive a deserter penalty (-35 points) and will not receive any victory or defeat rewards.
- A penalty notification will be displayed to the penalized Adventurer once the match ends.
- Attempting to matchmake while a penalty is applied will display a notification on matchmaking restriction.
| No. of Offenses | Penalty |
| 1 | Warning |
| 2 | 24-hour Matchmaking Restriction (1 Day) |
| 3 | 24-hour Matchmaking Restriction (1 Day) |
| 4 | 72-hour Matchmaking Restriction (3 Days) |
| 5 | 72-hour Matchmaking Restriction (3 Days) |
| 6 | 72-hour Matchmaking Restriction (3 Days) |
| 7 | 144-hour Matchmaking Restriction (7 Days) |
| 8 | 288-hour Matchmaking Restriction (14 Days) |
