New class and gift giveaway in Black Desert

Pearl Abyss studio employees held a broadcast where they presented a female character with fencing skills, additional PvE activities in many locations, including Zephyros, as well as improved raids on world bosses. The patch with all these updates will be released on December 18, but right now you can participate in the beta test of Seraph's abilities and receive gifts by entering special codes on the official website. We'll tell you in more detail what to do in BDO before the New Year arrives.

In combat, Seraph uses a pair of magical swords — Sacramentum and Purgatum. With the first, the girl deals quick and light strikes, and with the second, she chops enemies with doubled force. Among the character's abilities are «Deep Wound», which is a dash followed by an attack, «Sacred Cleaving», allowing wide swings to hit enemies around, and «Soul Split» with the most powerful attack. You can test all this combat art right now, without waiting for the update to load on the servers. In addition, you can enter the promo code THNX-4BEI-NGWI-THUS and receive five Uncanny Chests, a hammer, Cron Stones, and Valks' Advice. Another gift in the form of in-game currency will be received by those who activate the code THED-ESER-TTHN-XYOU. Don't forget about the rewards for daily login to your account.

To access Seraph, you need to download a separate Laboratory client, log into it through Pearl Abyss Launcher using your account credentials, then create a character and receive items associated with it. And those gamers who are willing to wait a bit are free to go to the main servers to properly appreciate the changes in PvE. The developers have reworked monster spots, even increasing the required attack level in some places — for example, in Idania you need to have 400 points for hunting instead of 380, and for the upper level of Sycraia Underwater Ruins the threshold was raised by 100.
