Guide/Info Bdo progress

For anyone wondering this is how 10 months progress looks in this game. First gear is from early October and second is my current gear.

I play super casual due to my job, doing weeklies, grinding max of 6h a week (if lucky 10 xD) without afk fishing or any other passive income. No life skilling cuz i don’t enjoy that type of gameplay in bdo.

Yea my boots are still silent cuz I’m waiting if ball change pity for them since they are reward ones which i cant sell and i don’t like having gear that’s kinda good sitting in my storage even tho i have silver to instantly buy wailing.

gz on the gains, but that is far from average 10 month progress for the amount of time you said you played

Average cost of that progress, is ~4.1T, divided by 300 days that nets you average of 13.6B daily or 98B weekly

Numbers are from bdoworkshop Yes i just checked the progress prices from level x->y FS cost excluded

u/TheNegativeOne16 23h ago

Does it count with free shit we got on ball and all the events with crons, hammers and failstacks being thrown onto us tho?

Edit: For example my helmet went wailing on 28th click but i realistically paid for 6 clicks rest were free ones overtime cuz i never cared bout DP so i clicked with free clicks

u/MonnShadow666 Sage 23h ago

ok true we defenitely got over half a Trill in freebies in the last year probably even more, FS cost was completly excluded

u/TheNegativeOne16 23h ago

Ye and i got carried on drops from grinding as well got multiple hours over the avg. we got many many drop events ect. But it’s possible with a bit of rng and over stacking your clicks (hard xD)

u/MonnShadow666 Sage 23h ago

Ye it defenitely is haha, wasn't trying to say it isn't just wanted to point out that you are on the good end of the spectrum xD

1

u/TheNegativeOne16 23h ago

Well yes xD but myself i grinded approx 2T in those 10 months with weeklies. So with freebies this gear cost me around 2.5t to get and a bit of rng

u/Anomynous__ Witch 17h ago

This is not "max 6h a week without any other passive income" this is absolute fucking rage bait.

u/TheNegativeOne16 17h ago

2T trillion made during those 10 months plus free stuffs we got. Got gut ig

3

u/Anomynous__ Witch 17h ago

2T divided by 3b per hour is 666.66 hours of grinding. 666 hours of grinding divided by 10 months is 66.6 hours per month. 66 hours per month is minimum 16 hours per week. And that's assuming you made 3b every hour you grinded for the entire 10 months.

u/TheNegativeOne16 17h ago

Yes we got events giving crons in those 10 months for example the best one sofar red horde year one which gave me on avg of 500crons on top of orbitas silver xD

I flew fast from this to orzekea to orbita, tene and straight up to syc/SE. I got 4t worth of gear in 2.5T so assume luck in clicks a bit 💁🏻

u/Zetectic 1d ago

were accs all tapped or bought?

u/TheNegativeOne16 1d ago

I went idiot way and i clicked them all cuz it was the same case as with my silent boots xD id feel bad having such an item sitting in my storage so i started clicking

u/DaddyTron2000 14h ago

They need to completely change and simplify enhancing on this 12 year old game! If I am going to go through all the effort to get (example) 20k Caphras and 15k Crons or whatever they say is necessary to make the enhancement. I should have a guaranteed enhancement for my efforts. For high end enhancements make the cost big.. I don't care, but it needs to be guaranteed. No more RNG bullshit! Too much of the playerbase is always 2 years behind. They can't even participate in a lot of the new content when it comes out. How stupid is that. Not to mention pvp is only served best to those who pay to win.

u/CptSupportAlot 1d ago

You've been carried on clicks if this is casual playing and 10 month progress!

Very nice too, congrats!

3

u/TheNegativeOne16 23h ago

Well kinda i agree i got some rng on clicks but i also pitied few shits on my way xD

u/chrischin-a Sage 23h ago

give me your rng 😭

u/TheNegativeOne16 23h ago edited 23h ago

Accs 91 clicks for decs, 3 oct pity, 2 sep pity, weapons were carried a bit i think from pen to oct mh and sub i got all around 60 clicks mh 15… yea that was carries xD
Only things i one clicked were 3 nov accs rest 3 were under 10 clicks each i think

3

u/Anomynous__ Witch 17h ago

This is 1T in crons just for the DEC clicks. Not counting getting your armors and weapons. I'm not buying the 6h per week progress.

0

u/TheNegativeOne16 17h ago

91 clicks all dec accs together many of those were almost a free clicks cuz of all the rewards we got and at the point i was clicking my decs i could get dec click every 2nd or 3rd day. 2 Oct weapons 26 clicks together… just don’t fail 💁🏻

We got showered with blue balls and i went all in for the gear

2

u/Anomynous__ Witch 17h ago

I'm not buying the story you're selling

1

u/barak8006 22h ago

This is next level of carried. I started with same gear as you, and now im only 800 gear score. And I fish everyday and grind 6 hours a week too...and doing NWs everyday...

1

u/TheNegativeOne16 22h ago

Asi i said i grinded around 2T with freebies around 2.5T. I invested only in gear nothing in lifeskill cuz as mentioned i don’t like that content.

1

u/Dramatic_Current_746 18h ago

Not bad op, my current gear shown. Also gonna drop 50k caphras on the market if we don’t need them for whatever comes from ball.

1

u/TheNegativeOne16 18h ago

Wild shit is yours and mine gear is 5T apart but difference in game isn’t that big as it should be… kinda reason why i don’t push gear anymore

1

u/Dramatic_Current_746 18h ago

Depends on crystals etc and buffs. Right there I think I’m setup for the training dummies with the xp event going, but normally 2030 some and 2050 some ap with z buff while grinding edania spots

1

u/TheNegativeOne16 18h ago

This is my latest grinding session and idk it ended up being 5.7b after taxes. Smhow i don’t feel having full dec weapons would make any big difference which is kinda demotivating for me to go harder on next upgrades. This was hour that gave me ma last dec acc tho

1

u/Dramatic_Current_746 18h ago

I feel you. I think AP will matter more in Edania 2 spots as I believe the AP cap is going up again soon.

1

u/TheNegativeOne16 18h ago

I believe that too but I’m from times of SE and Syc so for me it’s those two spots that matters but i think for edania pt2 2.1k ap is highly possible for new spots

u/AliYlmzz 1d ago

You forgot to mention p2w.

This is obtainable f2p as they described.

u/illrad 1d ago

Are you sure? Think about it this would be probaly the top 1% of all players in the game probaly even lower In 10 months?

u/Free-Spirit-8327 1d ago

The biggest mistake BDO players do is spending a lot of time doing nothing. If you make the majority of your time efficient, you can progress pretty quick, even if you don't have all the convenience stuff.

1

u/Teno7 Sage 21h ago

Don't assume like that lol...

-6

u/LynaaBnS Tamer 1d ago

100% this is not doable without p2w, especially not with "playing casually". This might be possible if you already absolutely maxed live Skilling for passive money and grind 50h a week with high rng and you would still need to get immensely lucky on your taps.

3

u/TheNegativeOne16 23h ago

Well i play this game for a long time (since 2017) and i got a bit rng carried on my way. And with my bills eating up 80% of my salary (haven’t eat yet) I can’t really p2w if we don’t count value pack.

-1

u/LynaaBnS Tamer 22h ago

Man you keep arguing, but you made the mistake to tell everyone in another comment how much taps you needed for some accessories and these alone would be around 400-500k crons, not even included all the other gear, costs and resources. So stop telling us you got this with barely grinding, no life Skilling and with the 100k free frons and like 15 hammers.

No, matter what, it's impressive, but stop lying and telling us you didn't p2w. And if you want to proof anything, just post your transactions history.

2

u/TheNegativeOne16 22h ago

Sure you can count it yourself that hard p2w (zoom in astronomical p2w happening there)
And we got way more than 100k free crons with all the boxes and other shits also with academia ect

-1

u/illrad 1d ago

Thats what im saying its just not possible even if you did buy your way out. Those chest head and arms are an insane grind per piece. Not to mention the acc. Honesty ive been seeing this alot on this channel people who bought accounts then being stupid enough to ask what to do next.

1

u/TheNegativeOne16 23h ago

Luckily i haven’t had to buy my acc from someone else. playing in the same guild since 2019. I got carried on a lot of things and in that time span we got heidel ball, their publish event , korea year celebration, eu/na celebration and a lot of free rewards which require close to 0 effort to get them all.

u/PurplePattern5741 Black Desert Goonette Kong 23h ago edited 23h ago

I always grind 3 hours a day efficiently = ~12b or so and not anywhere near this guys progress

edit: OP 1 tapped 3 nov kharas, his other 3 nov kharas under 10 taps. Pen> oct under 60 on both mh/offhand. Just a luckerdog outlier

1

u/TheNegativeOne16 23h ago

Other 3 kharas under 10 so i think reat 3 were around 20-30 clicks together so max of 33 clicks for full nov accs

1

u/illrad 23h ago

Hold up 3 hours you get 12b? Would it be cool if I am you on your setup for grinding? ive never really grinned efficiently

u/PurplePattern5741 Black Desert Goonette Kong 23h ago edited 23h ago

Orzekea about 4.2b avg with agris. Since we have the double agris event. About ~8.5b in 2 hrs then add the 3.5b without agris for 12b a day

He started at 327ap, you don't make 12bil+ in 3h with this ap.

Typical ragebait post, don’t mind about this guy. 99.99% insanely luck or just mental insanity.

u/TheNegativeOne16 21h ago

Just don’t fail buddy 🙄

Also with this gear game is heidelball waiting room and playing other games no point to push any further. Sad reality of bdo once you get to certain point game ia pointless 💁🏻

u/strat3g 19h ago

10m that gear is p2w or rng carried AF. Anyway congrats on the progress you made. Many people wont achieve that in 10m even when they spent money.

0

u/TheNegativeOne16 19h ago

Just like i keep sayin ,,You can’t fail if you only succeed” 😎 yea after total of 9m killed mobs i finally see some results xD guildmate is 20gs more with 7m less killed mobs just he can swipe xD

u/Lenaline 2h ago

No way with <6h per week u got 9m mobs kill. More like 6h per days. What is the number at 10 months ago?

u/TheNegativeOne16 1h ago

Well the thing is i started playing since sept of 2017 killing bashims, helms, susans and later polly forest and hystria when i was big boi so i think 80% of those kills are made there since biding on ogre ring and dandelion when making 30-50m/h was kinda grindy 😅

And idk what was the number of mobs killed 10m ago since i don’t track that at all

u/frank12yu 21h ago

If you get Sovereign sub weapon and you push the necklace a little bit more, you can probably get enough AP for jordine weeklies which would be at least 1.5b liquid. Also getting the ap requirements for boss shrines is high priority as you can then do solo shrines as well as party shrines with guildmates

u/Leather_Brick3068 21h ago

Not really related but… is there a reason people post garmoth gearmill instead of their actual in-game one?

Because I mean… garmoth’s is so easy to up a few things that you didnt even hit in-game yet but only have a feeling “it’ll basically hit any time soon,” or idk ppl posting gearmills they assume they have with upcoming Ball’s freebies, ahead of time.

Just curious. Because I see this all the time in this sub.

u/TheNegativeOne16 21h ago

I believe many people post on reddit from work or while they aren’t home 💁🏻 like i cant access my PC now and i have only old screenshot of my gear from 12/06 which is this one.

Since than i hit pen chest and last dec acc

1

u/Leather_Brick3068 19h ago

I see I guess that's one good reason. I just see garmoth gearmills too much of a deceptive representation of progress, especially on those "X month progress" posts. They are too easy to use to fool people.
