Ancient Anvil

Developer Commentary

The Ancient Anvil, previously announced at the Calpheon Ball 2025, is now live.

With this update, whenever you fail enhancement or awakened enhancement (hereinafter "enhancement"), the Ancient Anvil gauge will fill up. When the gauge is full, the Ancient Anvil will activate and the next enhancement attempt is guaranteed to succeed.

Many Adventurers have hesitated to attempt enhancement due to the low success rates and significant risks associated with failure in various enhancement systems. In 2023, we introduced updates such as Umbral Chaos Gear to reduce the burden of enhancement failure. However, even with safeguards against enhancement level drops, enhancement remained challenging for many Adventurers.

To further ease the burden of enhancement and let Adventurers embrace both the challenge and the growth from enhancements, we are adding the Ancient Anvil system. We will continue to introduce various systems that will improve your gameplay experience.

 

▶ Sample Image of Ancient Anvil for Awakened Enhancement

 

▶ Sample Image of Ancient Anvil for Chaos Enchantment


- Added a new system: "Ancient Anvil."
- The Ancient Anvil gauge for the current enhancement level will increase by 1 upon a failed enhancement attempt.
- When the gauge reaches the threshold, the Ancient Anvil will activate and the next enhancement attempt is guaranteed to succeed.
ㆍThe Anvil gauge for enchantment will increase with evey attempt that does not increase the stats.
ㆍGemstone of Tenacity and Gemstone of Determination's respective stats increase by 2 upon a successful refinement for stats of +101 or higher. The guaranteed refinement upon a full gauge will also increase the repsective stats by 2.
ㆍOnce your gauge is full, using the activated Ancient Anvil consumes the same enhancement materials as a regular enhancement attempt of the same type.
- The Anvil gauge will reset to 0 if enhancement succeeds before the gauge is full.
- The gauge will also fill up upon failed enhancement when the following items are used:
ㆍBlessing of W, Okiara's Blessing, Eidolic/Nocturnal Okiara's Blessing

- Please refer to the following table for the types of enhancement eligible for the Ancient Anvil and items that share the same gauge:

ㆍAs previously announced at the Calpheon Ball 2025, all failed enhancement attempts between Jul 1, 2025, and the update maintenance on Jan 13, 2026, are reflected in the initial Ancient Anvil gauge.
ㆍIf the initial Anvil gauge reaches the threshold, the next enhancement attempt for the item is guaranteed to succeed.
ㆍThe Anvil gauge will not fill above the threshold even if the number of failed enhancement attempts exceeds the threshold.

- A feature to view the Anvil gauges for levels higher than current levels is scheduled for a future update.

Character

- The following traits can now be activated by pressing the "Y" key.
ㆍDeadeye: Quick Draw
ㆍShai: Spirit's Protection
ㆍIgneous: Spirit's Protection
ㆍWizard: Spirit's Protection
ㆍArchmage: Spirit's Protection

Developer Commentary

In Black Desert Mobile, each class has its own skills and traits, and some traits are shared among similar classes.
Utilizing these traits greatly helps resolve combat more efficiently.

With this update, we improved a few underwhelming traits by decreasing their activation cooldowns, adding additional effects, or enhancing their visual effects.

We are expecting these changes to increase the utility of these traits and their strategic use in combat.

We will continue to work on providing Adventurers with balanced combat while preserving the unique characteristics of each class and trait.


[Spirit's Protection]
- Affected Classes: Archmage, Igneous, Wizard, Shai
- Improved the visual effect to notify when the protection ends.

[Oblivion]
- Affected Classes: Reaper, Raven, Void Knight, Phantasma

- Added the "Target DP -150" effect.

[Unhealing Wound]

- Increased the effect of Decrease HP Recovery. (50% → 75%)

[Reprimand]
- Affected Classes: Paladin, Spiritwalker, Drakania, Letanas, Seraph

[Cloud Conceal]
- Affected Classes: Dosa, Seonin, Maegu, Hwaryeong, Woosa, Choryeong
- Recover all MP and Combat Resource, and nullify all debuffs upon activation.

[Last Stand]
- Affected Classes: Destroyer, Solaris, Warlord, Zayed, Berserker
- Decreased Cooldown (120 sec → 90 sec)
- Reset all skill Cooldown upon activation. Decrease Attack/Move Speed Immunity while activated.

Developer Commentary

Windwalker is a class that excels at disrupting opponents through her outstanding agility.
Her melee combat benefits greatly from the "Wind Energy" effect, activated upon using a skill after three dash skills.

Since Wind Energy effect works best on non-dash skills, careful calculation is required to activate it on the right skill.
And when Wind Energy is activated, Adventurers often face dillemmas on whether to use a skill best suited for the moment or the one that maximizes the effect.

With this update, Wind Energy will no longer activate on dash skills,
allowing Adventurers to use the right skills and utilize the effect at the right moment.

Additionally, to address the issue where Windwalker lacked skills that could counter debuffs despite being a melee class,
we added Forward Guard to Ethereal Blast, enhancing her combat stability in melee combat.

 

Guidance of Wind
 
- Removed the "Super Armor for 1 sec upon Accelerate" effect.

"Guidance of Wind" effect
- Effects applied on the next skill used upon 3 stacks of "Wind Energy" (Forward Guard, Rear Super Armor, Damage Reduction, Grab Immunity, Next Skill Damage +30%) are no longer applied on Wind Knife, Gale Harvest, X-Strike, Spirit's Haven, and Cyclonic Fury.


Ethereal Blast
 
- Added Forward Guard and Rear Super Armor during the skill.


Gale Harvest
 
- Added the skill branches Aal and Ahib.
- The Enhancement "Increase Max Hits" will now be merged into the skill itself as follows.

ㆍ Lv 10: 501.7% → 501.7% x4

- Changed PvP Damage. (6 hits → 2 hits)
ㆍ Lv 1: 144.84% → 144.84% x4
ㆍ Lv 10: 195.84% → 195.84% x4

- Changed the maximum number of hits for Flow: Howling Winds. (Max 3 hits → Max 1 hit)

Developer Commentary

With the notice "Early Notice on the Ancient Anvil System" on Dec 31 (Wed),
we announced an adjustment to the required materials for Eidolic gear enhancement to Exquisite Black Crystal x15
to balance the difference in the expected quantity of materials required between Eidolic gear and ordinary gear.

However, we noticed that the calculation wouldn't match how Adventurers evaluate the value of enhancement materials
if we take not only Restoration Scrolls but also Akhram Prophecy/Advice of Valks, Silver, Pristine Black Crystals, and time taken into account.

So, we re-evaluated the value of enhancement materials for both enhancement system and re-adjusted the enhancement material required for Eidolic gear.
Similar adjustments to the required materials have also been made to Severing gear.

- Adjusted the quantities of materials required for Awakened enhancement of Eidolic/Severing gear, restoration of Totem enhancement, and the recipes for crafting Totem Chests.


ㆍMaterial required for each Awakened enhancement attempt for Eidolic/Severing gear

Affected Items Before After
Eidolic gear Exquisite Black Crystal x30 Exquisite Black Crystal x7
Severing gear Exquisite Black Crystal x2 Exquisite Black Crystal x1

ㆍMaterial required for crafting Rift Totem Chests

Affected Items Before After
+6 Rift Totem Chest Crystallized Totem x1,000 Crystallized Totem x300
+7 Rift Totem Chest Crystallized Totem x20,000 Crystallized Totem x4,000

ㆍMaterial required for restoring failed Totem enhancement attempts

Affected Items Before After
+2 Totem Crystallized Totem x3 Crystallized Totem x2
+3 Totem Crystallized Totem x5 Crystallized Totem x4
+4 Totem Crystallized Totem x15 Crystallized Totem x9
+5 Totem Crystallized Totem x90 Crystallized Totem x43
+6 Totem Crystallized Totem x900 Crystallized Totem x240
+7 Totem Crystallized Totem x19,000 Crystallized Totem x3,700

Developer Commentary

With the Ancient Anvil update, awakened enhancement materials for both Umbral Chaos gear and ordinary gear changed,
and some Adventurers may no longer wish to continue attempting enhancements for Umbral Chaos gear.

So, we added recipes to convert Umbral Chaos gear back to ordinary gear regardless of Umbral Chaos enhancement level.
Eidolic gear can be converted back to +8 gear, and Severing gear back to +7 gear.
Adventurers may now choose the enhancement method they prefer based on the materials they have or their playstyle.

Umbral Chaos Gear as An Alternative Enhancement System

Before the Ancient Anvil update, enhancement materials required for Umbral Chaos gear and ordinary gear were not significantly different.

But with this update, even if you set the quantity of Restoration Scrolls, Akhram Prophecy, or Advice of Valks to minimum,
the enhancement threshold will eventually guarantee a success if you have enough Pristine Black Crystals, Silver, and time,
which means Umbral Chaos gear would consume far more Restoration Scrolls than the ordinary awakened enhancement.

On the other hand, since you can craft Exquisite Black Crystal not only with Akhram Prophecy 100% but also 10% or 50%,
Umbral Chaos gear can be an alternative enhancement system if you do not have enough Akhram Prophecy 100%.
Plus, you can still gradually increase your CP since the enhancement level does not drop upon failed enhancement attempts.
So, we are keeping Umbral Chaos gear as an available option for gear enhancement.


- Added recipes to convert Umbral Chaos gear back to ordinary gear under [Menu] - [Craft] - [Umbral Chaos Gear] - [Extract Enhancement].

| +0 Severing Gear

ㆍ+0 Severing gear can now be converted back to ordinary gear at [Menu] - [Craft] - [Umbral Chaos Gear] - [Forge Gear].

- A tutorial on Adventuring Fervor will now be displayed when entering the Black Spirit screen for the first time after the update.

- Riftborn Fervor can now be traded on the Market.

Azunak Arena (Duo)

Developer Commentary

Azunak was once a training ground where the ancient Sherekhan honed their skills under various combat scenarios.
The experience gained by working together with allies and sometimes fighting alone has been passed down through generations, continuing to shape Adventurers today.

Azunak Arena has provided Adventurers with diverse PvP combat experiences through 3v3 and 1v1 formats,
and with this update, Adventurers will form teams of two in the new Azunak Arena (Duo).

In this new battlefield, the "Dark Shroud" will consume the region, dealing significant damage to Adventurers within. The Dark Shroud will encroach upon the region three times, making the arena smaller and smaller.
The Dark Shroud will test the cooperation of teammates and create more uncertainty in the flow of battle.

With this revamp, we're also introducing Quick Join, allowing Adventurers who aren't in a guild or who belong to smaller guilds to enjoy this content through faster matches.

We hope Adventurers will team up with trustworthy teammates and claim victory after intense competition on a battlefield enveloped in the Dark Shroud.

- Revamped Azunak Arena into a duo format, where Adventurers enter as teams of two.
ㆍUp to 12 teams (24 participants) can enter one battlefield.
ㆍAvailable for 40,000 CP or higher.

- Azunak Arena is open during the following schedule:
ㆍThursdays 20:00–20:50 and Saturdays 18:00–18:50
- Go to [Menu] - [Arena] to enter Azunak Arena (Duo).

Rules

- Up to 24 Adventurers may enter one battlefield.
- All participants start at level 1 with equal CP. EXP gained in the arena is determined by your CP before it is equalized.
- Defeat monsters and other Adventurers to gain points and EXP to level up.
- All Adventurers' Family Names are displayed as Unknown Adventurer. Family Names by rank can be viewed in the results screen after the match ends.
- When defeated by another Adventurer, only points are lost; EXP is not lost.

Dark Shroud

- The Dark Shroud forms three times at set intervals during the battle.

 

▶ Example image of Dark Shroud limiting the battlefield (Area outside the yellow border is covered in the Dark Shroud)


- You'll take heavy damage every second outside the Dark Shroud.
- The safe zone is determined at random, and shrinks every time the Dark Shroud is formed.
- The Dark Shroud is shown on the minimap, and the terrain within the shroud turns black.

Rankings and Rewards

- Added Azunak Arena (Duo) to Arena Rankings.
ㆍRankings are updated daily after midnight.
ㆍRank is determined by the highest score obtained in a single match.

- Azunak Arena (Duo) rankings reset every Monday at 00:00.

Developer Commentary

Black Desert Mobile's combat gameplay focuses on character actions, boasting stylish combat through the unique skillset of each character.

To maximize the potential of Black Desert Mobile, we have continuously implemented new technologies to provide a more stable gameplay environment compared to when the game first launched.

As the game continued to improve, the attack speed and movement speed of each class have also gradually increased.

However, with an improved gameplay environment and faster character speed, the network synchronization process would often cause grab skills to seem awkward due to the difference in timing between when the skill is actually used and when the skill is displayed on the game screen.

Due to this discrepancy, grabs would sometimes look as if the character is being dragged from afar because the target would seem to have moved away at the time of a successful grab.
Or, grabs on adjacent characters would fail because the target, displayed nearby, had actually moved away.

To address these issues, we have been working on network synchronization improvements.
And with this update, we adjusted the timing for determining a successful grab to better synchronize with character positions, reducing the discrepancy between the combat screen and the actual combat data as much as possible.

We will continue to monitor and enhance network synchronization so grab skills feel more natural.

- [Common] Fixed an issue where grabbed characters were displayed abnormally due to network synchronization.

- You can now invite Blood Kins for the following content:
ㆍFallen God's Realm
ㆍCo-op Rush
ㆍTwisted Nightmare: Capital
ㆍMartial God Tournament: Spar / Duo Watch Mode
ㆍRamoness Arena
- You can now enter Co-op Rush even if you have no Silver or fewer than 20 empty slots in your Inventory when entering without available entries.
- Added auto-retrieval for products refunded when processing refunds through the open app market.
ㆍTemporary access restrictions will be automatically lifted after all products subject to refund are retrieved.
ㆍIf products eligible for refunds are refunded through the open app market, the temporary access restriction will be lifted after the payment is re-processed.
- Changed the content of the temporary access restriction popup window with this update.
- Non-season characters' Quest UI will no longer display season quests.

- Added Blood Kin to the [Friends and Guild Members] option under [Settings] - [Game] - [Match Invite].
- Removed the loading screen when starting a match in Martial God Tournament.
- Replaced the Christmas-themed Sleep Mode screen with Seraph theme.
- Added additional event details to the Progression Buff Bonus! event banner.

Before • The reward can only be claimed once.
After • The buffs will automatically apply upon tapping [Claim Reward].
• This event banner will display for 14 days since Family creation/return.
• The reward can only be claimed once.

- The weather will now always remain sunny in Martial God Tournament, Ramoness Arena, and Guild League.

- [Seraph] Fixed an issue where the character would occasionally land on other characters when using Culling the Dead under Lux/Nox Exsoluta.
- [Guardian] Fixed an issue where Omua's Admonition and Bonechill Strike would consume MP upon use.

- Fixed an issue where the character could stand on top of the Venomous Swamp Nest monster in Nightmare: Tshira.

※ Using Holy Vial of Splendor may fill the gauge up to x14.
ㆍHoly Vial of Light will now be used automatically when the Blessing of Light gauge drops below x2.5.

- Fixed an issue where staying on the result screen after defeating the final Boss for a certain period of time would cause the subsequent exit UI to overlap with the existing UI in Atoraxxion.
- Fixed an issue where the HP UI of Adventurer's Apparitions was displayed abnormally in relevant content.
- Fixed an issue where the reward requirement (New Adventurers Only) was not displayed on the update download screen.

Character

Developer Commentary

Seraph delivers swift and precise slashes under Lux Exsoluta, and deals powerful, fatal blows under Nox Exsoluta.
The versatility of her dual Primal Sacred Power is what she wields to dominate the battlefield.

With this update, to improve her somewhat underwhelming hunting efficiency under Lux Exsoluta, we added skill combos and increased the attack speed as well as the attack range for her skills.

Enjoy Seraph's swift and impactful combat with more precise slashes and stylish combos.

We are also constantly monitoring the combat statistics for other classes,
and we will continue to improve the combat gameplay in a way that maximizes the fun of combat by utilizing the unique characteristics of each class.




Sacramentum

ㆍBefore: Reset Lux/Nox Exsoluta duration upon defeating enemies (Cooldown: 3 sec)
ㆍAfter: Reset Lux/Nox Exsoluta duration upon defeating enemies
※ The skill will function as is.

  




Mark of Judgment
- [Lux Exsoluta] Changed the 2nd hit to increase its attack range based on your distance to the target.
ㆍBefore: a rectangular attack range with a width of 5m and a reach of 10m.
ㆍAfter: a conical attack range with a radius of 10m and an angle of 80º.




Oblique Slash
- [Neutral/Lux Exsoluta] Decreased the time to combo into other skills by 0.1 sec.




Severing Slash
- [Neutral/Lux Exsoluta] Changed to allow combo into the skill after using Evasion or Vanguard Chase.

New Content and Improvements

Developer Commentary

The hunting zone exclusive to season characters, "Resonating Beach," used to be where season characters could obtain materials to enhance season gear. It had fewer rewards compared to normal hunting zones, and was visited for specific purposes.


However, even with minimal rewards, characters could obtain rewards after their Adventuring Fervor was depleted,
which caused season characters to postpone their season completion to access Resonating Beach.

With this update, non-season characters can also access Resonating Beach.

The purchase limit for its entry items is also adjusted to 14 per Season, so any character in your Family can access Resonating Beach whenever you like.
With this improvement, Resonating Beach will be much more accessible to Adventurers.


- Non-season characters can now also enter Resonating Beach.
- The following measures were taken for Tuvala Scrolls:
ㆍ Tuvala Scrolls will no longer expire.
ㆍ Changed the purchase limit for Tuvala Scrolls.
Before: 14 per week (season characters only)
After: 14 per Season per Family (both season and non-season characters)
※ Tuvala Scrolls purchased between the update maintenance on Dec 16, 2025 (Tue) and Dec 21, 2025 (Sun), 23:59 will count toward the Family limit of 14.
※ The purchase limit for Tuvala Scrolls will reset every Season.
ㆍ Unused Tuvala Scrolls will be deleted at the end of the Season.

- Sangoon's Shadow, Bamboo Legion Lieutenant's Shadow, and Duoksini's Shadow, which spawn with Bulgasal at Geunjeongjeon Hall, will now drop Nightmare Fragment x10 upon defeat. This only applies to the first Boss defeated among the three.

- The [Auto-Path] button in the Cursed Pirate Island menu will now lead the character to the Captain of the Neftari even when no exploration time remains.

- Towns will be decorated with a Christmas theme.


- Added a Christmas-themed Sleep Mode screen.

※ The Christmas theme will be removed during the update maintenance on Dec 30 (Tue).

- Urugon's HP Bar will now always be displayed at the top in Urugon Temple.
