Eligible players (lvl 56 and lvl 58) will be able to claim the kit between the 25th of September up until the 23th of October (before that day’s maintenance).

This hefty boost will help players to level-up faster than ever before. Ideal for those who want to level their alts. This buff will be available starting from the 25th of September up until the 8th of October.

Special Challenges will be available throughout the first two weeks of the event period which rewards players for playing Black Desert Online for a certain time duration. Adventurer’s can obtain special items such as [Event] High-Quality Draught Box, [Event] Extra Combat EXP Scroll, [Event] High-Quality Food Box, and [Event] Item Collection Increase Scrolls.

By completing Marni’s Stones Event players will be able to get even more rewards if they can fulfill its challenges within the Season of the Hunt time window.

On October 2nd the Special Pouch drop event will reward the game’s best combatants, gatherers and fishers with event rarity and fortune pouches that can randomly yield players with coveted upgrade items.
