Greetings Adventurers,

Valentine’s Day is coming up next week and you will see the world of BDO to be a bit more flirtatious than usual and seasonal decorations reflect all the love in the air…xoxo. But not all is love and flowers, there is also a danger lurking. Ancient Puturum has been spotted in Valencia and Guilds are called in to face this threat.
Also a new attendance reward cycle has started so be diligent and be rewarded for it!


System:

• The Hide Other Character function (Shift + F5) has been adjusted now to function appropriately.
  
  
• The Guild Bonus distribution conditions have been amended.
  
  • Any Guild with at least 30 members, whether or not they hold a Node or Territory, can now distribute Guild Bonuses.
    
  • Guild Bonuses can be distributed once every seven days, and can be up to 40% of your Guild Funds.
    
  • Since the Guild Bonus distribution conditions have been amended, the distribution date tracking has now been reset.

• For Guilds with Guild Funds over 20 billion Silver, the Guild Welfare Reserves tax rates have been amended as follows:
  
  
  
  • If a Guild’s Guild Funds are over 90 billion Silver, then 20% will be taken for the Guild Welfare Reserves.

• The Silver received from the Combat Fame portion of the House Fame Fund has been increased by 20%.

Content:

• A new Guild Boss ‘Ancient Puturum’ has been added to Valencia.
  
  • Ancient Puturum Summon Scroll can be obtained from the new guild mission Boss Subjugation.

• Items that are blue grade or higher and Enhanced to PEN (V) then are registered in the Marketplace will now be sold first to those who Pre-Ordered the items.
  
  • If there are no Pre-Orders in place, then the item will be sold via the Bidding process.
    
  • Although PEN (V) items are items with the highest level of Enhancement, their Marketplace prices are lower than what their value should dictate. To offset this, we changed it so that these items are first sold through Pre-Orders. Therefore, rather than us directly changing the maximum price for such items, we are leaving it on the hands of you Adventurers to decide how much these items are worth, by prioritizing Pre-Order.

• Now, if an item is sold via Pre-Order the Recent Price will be listed not as the registered price but the price sold via Pre-Order.
  
  
• The number of Farming Byproducts needed to make Stonetail Fodder have been amended.
  
  • Previously, 15 to 25 Farming Byproducts (depending on the type) were needed but now you can combine 20 each, from any two different types, of Farming Byproducts with Simple Cooking to more easily make Stonetail Fodder.
