Pearly Abyss has triggered maintenance for Black Desert Online today, and during it, has rolled out the Black Desert Online update 1.82 May 14 patch. Note that there was a patch released earlier this week as well, which has since been updated to reflect today’s changes. We’ve decided to post the complete patch notes for everything as a reference point.

Black Desert Online Update 1.82 May 14 Patch Notes:

● To help ease players into Node Wars, a Tier 1 Node War Maximum AP/DP system has been introduced. 

– Tier 1 Nodes can be a ‘Goal to Achieve’ for new guilds. The new max AP and DP restrictions have been added to make Node Wars more accessible for new/inexperienced guilds. We hope this allows more adventurers to enjoy the Node War systems.

– Tier 1 Node Wars are separated into Easy, Medium and Hard levels, each with their own unique AP/DP restrictions. 

– The limits to AP and DP apply to all PvP actions of the character, including basic attacks, pre-awakening/awakening/succession skills and summoned creatures.

– Horse’s attack skills and character skills that are used on Horses will also be subject to the AP limits when hitting other characters. Damage to Cannons, Barricades, Wooden Fences etc. will remain the same. 

– AP limits do not apply to mounts such as Elephants and base weaponry (Hwacha, cannons etc).

 

● Tier 1 Node Wars are AP/DP capped as follows: 

– Tier 1 Easy: 210 AP/ 250 DP

– Tier 1 Medium: 230 AP/ 270 DP

– Tier 1 Hard: 240 AP/ 300 DP 

 

● Tier 1 (Easy, Medium, Hard) Node Wars’ Damage Reduction rate is as follows.  

– Tier 1 Easy: Damage Reduction Rate (7%) 

– Tier 1 Medium: Damage Reduction Rate (9%) 

– Tier 1 Hard: Damage Reduction Rate (13%) 

 

● Tier 1 Node Wars have a maximum HP restriction of 5000 HP. This Maximum HP restriction will decrease every 20 minutes by 500 HP until the Node War has completed.

 

Example: 

Node Wars Starts: 5000 HP → 4,500 → 4,000 → 3,500 → 3,000 → 2,500

 

– The Maximum AP and DP restrictions of Tier 1 Node Wars applies to every adventurer within the Node War area, even if you are not participating.
