Black Desert Online has recently announced significant changes to its Season Server system. Starting September 20th, 2023, Season Servers always be open for players looking to start a Season character. Before diving into the details of this update, it's essential to understand what a Season Server is and why it's crucial for the game's community.
A Season Server in Black Desert Online is a unique type of server that offers accelerated character growth. Designed primarily for new players, these servers allow individuals to level up their characters faster, gain better gear, and experience the game's content in a more streamlined manner. The main attraction of Season Servers is the «Tuvala» gear, which players can obtain and enhance more easily compared to regular servers. This gear can later be transferred to the main servers, making it a valuable asset for both new and returning players. Season Servers typically used to last for about three months, after which players would “graduate” and move their characters to the regular servers.
Now, onto the exciting news: starting September 20th, Black Desert Online will be introducing a new system where Season Servers will be open all the time! This is a significant departure from the previous system where these servers were available only for limited periods. According to the official announcement, the new system will allow players to start their Season Server journey at any time they wish, as long as they have a Season Character ticket. This means that players no longer have to wait for a specific period to enjoy the benefits of accelerated growth and enhanced gear.
The benefits of the Season Sever will also include “Growth Hot Time” 24/7. That means all players playing Black Desert Online’s Season Server will get 300% combat XP, 100% skill XP, and 30% life XP, and all items gathered with gathering tools will be doubled. If you’re a new player and you have a Season Ticket, but you decide after playing for a bit that you want to delete your character and start over, you can still join a Season Server without needing an additional ticket. Season Tickets are only consumed once you “graduate” (move to a regular server), so you don’t have to worry that you made a bad decision if you decide after a while that you don’t like your class choice.
Black Desert Online's decision to make Season Servers available all the time is a welcome change for the community, especially where new players, or current players looking to speed along their next class. It offers more flexibility for players, ensuring they can dive into the seasonal content at their own pace. Pearl Abyss has been working hard and it shows, as their games continue to show a willingness to engage fans by adding
