I'm interested to play, however, if the game is provided from Japan, does it get translated to English, or everything is just in Japanese? GUI, subtitles etc.

thank you so much!!

im trying now!! will update if i can play or not.

download both client and installer but what do i do at the launcher page? also must use softetgher vpn to register and login? cannot use vpn like Mudfish?

Nah, mudfish will take care all of incoming packets automatically.
Just make sure BDO is in ur item list and is turned on. Then can proceed and press start game as usual.
No need softvpn at all.

@dx_treme can up your salary already haha

Hey guys, what would you guys recommend to spend Pearl on, assuming I have 2120 pearls, for the best value?

Here's some brief description about my playstyle:
Currently playing on JP Media server, lv22 after like 9 days (lol), doing a lot of PvE/crafting/fishing/learning-the-ropes, not rushing to high level, or rushing for "end-game". I am more of the enjoy-the-journey type.

Right now mainly playing solo, as I am still learning the game, won't want to slowdown any other people.
But I totally won't shy away from group activities and PvP, definitely planning on doing group-PvP (raid/siege) in the long term future, I was a big fan of Shadowbane (if anyone still remember...).

Spending most of my time on Ranger right now, but still undecided between Ranger vs Valkyrie as my main...

I don't mind spending time and energy to slowly achieve something (instead of instant-gratification), and tend to avoid dealing with RNG, if possible. Anything to minimize/remove the nasty RNG element, I would consider worthy, because it saves both time and resources.

Right now, I plan to buy myself the following items:
1) An inner armor which +1 luck, to help with RNG.
2) A 500 pearls aesthetic outfit (well, can't avoid looking at those pixels anyway, might as well make it adorable).
3) A spectacle/head-accessory which +10M sight range (love sight-seeing and exploration).
4) Going to maximize my character slots.

That's all I could think of right now...I am still newbie, not sure what's wise to get, like:
1) Should I get a pet? If so, which one would you recommend, utility-wise?
2) Any furniture/horse/boat/whatever only obtainable via Pearl, and is highly regarded in utility?

Example, there's a red-ish fish costume which can make you swim faster and increase fishing skill+speed, worth it?

Seagm abit more cheaper

1) yes. pansu cant sell in AH
2) u can spam general chat during weekend for costume u want, the Credit Card player will buy for u.
3) yes. only spectacle n earing worth to buy coz got higher knowledge rng. And they cant sell it in AH.
4) yes if u like alt

buy premium(400pearls) if u like selling in AH, got reduce tax. u can also plastic surgery anytime during premium. n extra 20% xp i think
u need 4 pets to do auto loot, save ur loot btn lol... u can buy in AH
recommended by me => buy char weight + bag slot


btw, come join our guild so can ask any questions ezly

how'd you make mudfish to work? i've added it to the item list but when i press start it doesn't open up the launcher

Thanks, good advices!

How do I tell if an item can be sold on AH or not?

I want alts to try out all the classes, and also to have more energy to spend, plus I hear alts are great "batteries" for enchanting.

I added you as friend already, I don't really understand the guild system and the game itself yet, so I would rather not dragging down anybody.
Guild has max limit on number of member, right? I think the member slot spent on me is better used by someone else who is more familiar with the game and can join guild activities.
Wait till maybe I am lv 50

Just bought the whole set of outfit with weapon...gosh I didn't know there are some stats, and they are pretty good but not game-breaking, like:
- reduce durability speed
- increase sight range
- +exp from monster
- increase relationship gain (does this mean with NPC or what?)
- increase character height (...)
- +stamina
- +luck

Damn, I didn't know, and it wasn't stated in the cash shop...are these stats fixed? or randomly obtained when you bought the item?
If fixed, which costume sets provide the best stats?

Just make sure you run it as admin, and use chrome instead of IE.
Also not all JP mudfish server can connect to game, so some testing is needed.
I'm using ConoHa atm.

Thanks to all the guides, advices and help from netizens and guildmates, I am having a blast in BDO (JP)

Here's some screenshots to get more people playing

After 2 weeks playing, I am still only level 25!
There's simply too many things to do, still have many aspect/area unexplored, and I haven't started PvP yet.

Enjoy the screenies!

EDIT: Updated with pic of a player wearing Mai Shiranui's outfit.

wahhh... wet n slutty outfit!!

How many lotion did u use for all the shots?

Hey guys, currently playing in BDO Japan (switched over from KR recently) using openvpn + wtfast and been getting around 200ms via JP6 server, the ping is quite high compared to what I experienced in KR, any good vpn that you guys are using that gives lower ping?

For those using MUDFish right now, just wish to know how's the user experience?

I am mainly concerned about:
1) Ping. What ping you are getting?
2) Packet loss. Do you experience things like, clicked but no response, pressed but no skill comes out, or lag spikes? These are all indication of packet loss.
3) Availability and stability. Does the server disconnect/restart often? I would hate if it disconnects in mid-fight which I spent scroll...

Please tell me both the positives and negatives you experienced, thanks!
