New Content and Improvements
Preemptive Measures for the Silver Denomination Change
- Preemptive measures have been taken for items with a shop sell price or delivery price below 10,000 Silver ahead of the Feb 10 (Tue) Silver Denomination display format change.

② Items with shop prices below 10,000 Silver that expire
- These items now have a shop price of 1 Silver, and the difference between the previous and new shop price has been sent to your in-game mailbox.
e.g., If an item that expires has a shop price of 5,000 Silver, 4,999 Silver has been sent to the in-game mailbox for each item. It can be sold to the vendors in town for 1 Silver after expiry.

Great Desert Revamp
Developer Commentary
The Great Desert has been revamped with this update.
As announced at the Calpheon Ball, the three Great Desert difficulty levels—Imur, Torme, and Shahzad—merged into one.
Monsters with higher CP than those in the former Shahzad difficulty have been added to match Adventurers' growth.
Additionally, we added Blessed Light/Fog Crystals as loot drops from defeated monsters and increased the amount of
Edana's Coins obtained from excavation so that your adventures in Great Desert can contribute to character growth.
Also, with the Great Desert merge update, we added hunting zones where Ancient Seed, previously only obtainable in Hystria
Ruins, is now available, and standardized the difficulty of Temples, Laytenn, and Apocros to match Shahzad.
We hope you enjoy your journey in the newly revamped Great Desert.
- Unified the Great Desert difficulty levels into one.
ㆍMonsters with CP between 30,000 and 83,000 will now spawn.

We hope these items, often referred to as gifts from the god, can support your growth throughout your adventure.

New Content and Improvements
Azunak Arena (Duo)
Developer Commentary
Since the Azunak Arena (Duo) update on Jan 6, Adventurers have been engaging in fierce combat
against monsters, bosses, and other Adventurers alongside their trusted teammates.
While skills such as Recovery, Poison, and Roar are intended to be powerful rewards for defeating bosses, they were difficult to utilize because Adventurers remained vulnerable to enemy attacks while casting these skills.
To address this, we added Invinciblity to Azunak Arena skills to ensure they can be used more effectively. Furthermore, Adventurers can now readily switch to other skills while casting, if necessary.
We hope you continue to enjoy the thrill of combat in Azunak Arena, fighting side-by-side with your trusted teammates.
- You can now cancel Azunak Arena skills (Recovery, Poison, Roar) by using Evasion or instant activation skills.
- Changed the guard type applied while using Recovery and Poison. (Super Armor → Invincibility)

- Reset entries and first clear reward status for Trials of Ator: Elite.
Weekly Task

※ The Weekly Task is available for Familes with a season character who has completed the season. The Task will appear in the Weekly Task list after logging into the game with a character of 30,000 CP or higher.
System
- The quest "Capture a Wild Horse" can now be accepted from Lorenzo Murray at Velia upon achieving 6,400 CP or higher.

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:
| Category | Content | Details |

Character Traits
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]

- Added the "Target DP -150" effect.
[Unhealing Wound]

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

[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.
Windwalker
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.

ㆍ Lv 1: 144.84% → 144.84% x4
ㆍ Lv 10: 195.84% → 195.84% x4

Changes in Quantities for Enhancement and Crafting Materials
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].
| Materials | Result |
|---|---|
| Awakened +0 Severing Chaos gear | Awakened +7 Chaos gear |
| +1 or higher Umbral Chaos Gear

ㆍEnhanced Umbral Chaos gear can now be converted back to ordinary gear at [Menu] - [Craft] - [Umbral Chaos Gear] - [Extract Enhancement].
| Materials | Result |
|---|---|
| Awakened +1–+4 Severing Chaos gear | Awakened +7 Chaos gear |
| Awakened +1–+9 Eidolic Chaos gear | Awakened +8 Chaos gear |
ㆍMaterials already used to enhance the Umbral Chaos gear will be lost when you convert it back to ordinary gear.
