Regarding the Recent [Minimum Damage Rate] Patch
ANNOUNCEMENTS 2021.03.11

Greetings, Adventurers. 

 

This is to notify our Adventurers of an upcoming change (expected on March 23) that will adjust a patch that was previously added on March 9. 

 

■ Details 

Description 

March 9 

March 23 

Increased the minimum damage rate based on CP difference. 

100% of initial value 

50% of initial value 

※ “Initial value” refers to the minimum damage rate value before March 9 maintenance 

 

■ Developer’s Note 

As mentioned in a previous announcement, Black Desert Mobile Global is currently in the process of making the game operate within identical specification parameters of our other servers of the game. 

 

During this process, we have made and are planning to make more adjustments to various aspects of the game. 

These changes can happen not only to Global but to other servers as well if deemed necessary. 

The adjustment that was made on March 9 is an example of where we wanted to apply a PVP balance that is identical across all servers of Black Desert Mobile. 

 

We have identified a substantial increase in the average HP value amongst Adventurers since introducing our “Awakening Update in July of last year. 

Since that update, we saw an increase in Character levels, Black Spirit levels, Boss Knowledge, quality of equipped Accessories along with other factors that resulted in an average HP increase of approximately 50% for all Adventurers. 

 

In addition, we had to prioritize the fact that any PVP balance patch that was going to be applied had to be identical across all servers of Black Desert Mobile. 

With the latter taken into heavy consideration, on March 9, we decided to apply a minimum damage rate increase of 100% of what it was initially before the update 

 

However, after conducting the change through extensive testing in various PVP modes, our team had concluded that the 100% increase did not properly reflect the balance increase that was necessary for the previously mentioned average HP increase of 50% since the Awakening update. 

 

Therefore, we will be adjusting this specification again during maintenance expected on March 23 

This change will adjust the minimum damage rate increase to 50% instead of the initial 100% that was applied on March 9.  

This will result in a 25% decrease of what is currently applied on the live server. 

 

We would like to apologize for any inconvenience that may have been caused by this change. 

We ask that you continue to provide us with feedback regarding Black Desert Mobile for us to consistently work towards improving the overall playing experience of the game. 

 

Thank you.
