I've played around with some settings and found a solution to it. Ive taken some notes but they are really messy so i used chatgpt for a summary but the info is the same just cleaner formatting hope u dont mind.

Not sure if it works for nvidia but you might wanna give it a try anyways.

1. AMD Adrenalin

• FreeSync: OFF
• Enhanced Sync: OFF
• Radeon Chill: OFF
• Radeon Anti-Lag: OFF
• Wait for Vertical Refresh / V-Sync: OFF
• Remove frame cap as well, basically everything turned off in global settings as well as in BDO game profile.

__

1. MSI Afterburner / RivaTuner

• Both run automatically at startup.
• RTSS frame limit: 999 FPS

__

1. BDO executables

For both BlackDesert64.exe (in bin64) and the launcher (in the Black Desert folder):

• Compatibility → Disable fullscreen optimizations: unchecked
• Run this program as an administrator: checked
• High DPI settings → Override high DPI scaling behavior: checked
• Scaling performed by: Application
• Under Change settings for all users, apply the same settings.

__

1. Windows 11 settings

• Display → Advanced display → Dynamic refresh rate: OFF
• Graphics → Optimizations for windowed games: ON
• Advanced graphics settings:
  • Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling: ON
  • Variable refresh rate: ON
• Graphics → BlackDesert64.exe:
  • GPU preference: High performance (RX 9070 XT)
  • Optimizations for windowed games: ON

__

1. Restart your PC
2. Start AMD Software (or atleast make sure its running)
3. Launch BDO in Fullscreen.
4. Switch to Fullscreen Window (borderless).

Enjoy, hope it works. If not let me know maybe we can troubleshoot it idk

Also there is a video where i adjusted some other settings prior (optimized virtual memory, registry edits etc. took like 3-5min) you might wanna look into it:

whatever happened here made me shit my pants when I saw them

They we're just cruising around the farm without attacking me, even though I could damage them

2k hours in game first time got this drop

Pretty decent event for silver sinks

I’m asking because I spent like 3 months here never got it , moved to Edana 2 for a short while for better silver as I needed silver at the time for taps , now I’m back here about 2 weeks still nothing but the white grouper and silver belts. I know they have reworked a few spots prized fish , they also didn’t post these changes example is Grana where pink dolphin is the took out the groupers. So wondering truly is this spot still valid? Has anyone got it here recently? I’m trying for some of the titles.

I’ve been playing this character for a few months.. maybe longer off and on. Kinda got my inventory filled with stuff and not really sure where I stand in the story. I don’t want to use precious resources or items being uninformed of what I actually have in value or what it can do to benefit me. If you guys have any thoughts or suggestions on what I should be doing I’d really appreciate it. Off to work I go so I apologize if I’m not responding but I will be reading all responses!

Not a gooner, just curious.

Hello, I've been playing Awk Hash and wanted to try another character. I've already tried most classes, and Awk Maegu is the one I'm most interested in.

My only worry is that they seem to do similar things and fulfill the same purposes. If anyone could outline their different strengths in PvE, I'd appreciate it!

I do kinda want a class that's a little faster than Hash, though.

Feel free to suggest another class that's similar to Awk Hash if you'd like. Thanks!

I just started playing 15 mins ago. I went to challenge and collect some rewards and boom. i got bombarded by suspicious amount of skill points which I don't know how to use. wtf. I am so confused. My inventory is full with a mess. i am genuinely overwhelmed and i am still at starting area. Is it normal?

Completed the quest-line for awakening/Succession.

Hello, I would like to ask you guys about Striker and his issue with OCT: Sov glow hiding while wearing outfits like La Orzca or Dark Prince.

I would love to know if there is an outfit which allows me to HIDE my gauntlets, vambrace and cestus but keep its OCT glows. Would Stygian Wise outfit work for example? Did anyone try it out yet, please? :D

[SOLVED]

Doing the Olvia Academy combat quests and got up to where I have to kill 300 pirates. I did it but now the quest completion target is the Black Spirit, but he doesn't have anything for the quest. I tried to forfeit the quest and redo it but I'm having the same issue.

Watching a few videos it looks like he's supposed to say something the moment you talk to him? Only thing I can think of is that I died immediately after the cut scene but again, I forfeited the quest and tried again, did it without dying, and I still can't complete it. Anyone have any ideas?

this is me venting

im playing solare as Shai and its the worst class for this but its the one i know how to play, you can look up the rankings and Shai players arent even at half of what other classes get wich really shows how shitty Shai is in this mode
but that isnt the worst part, the fact that players see me as Shai and insta hate, ive seen players going afk and throwing the game is awful
why would PA allow one class to be so shitty where people sees you and its insta lose for them

Hey guys! I started playing BDO almost two weeks ago, and I've been enjoying the main quests so far. However, I've run into an issue with the quest "[Kamasylvia] Under the Fluttering Kamasylve Petals."

I exchanged a Black Stone with NPC Kalix to get a boarding ticket, but the balloon arrived and left without me being able to board it.

I've tried the following solutions, but none of them worked:

Switched to another server and logged back in.

Abandoned the quest and accepted it again.

Obtained a few more Black Stones, but I still can't exchange them with NPC Kalix to get another boarding ticket.

I've already submitted a support ticket through the official website, but I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue.

Do you think this is something the support team can fix, or is there another workaround I could try?

I'd appreciate any help or advice. Thanks in advance!

Just got back into the game on console started olvia academy got new crystal slots but I cant seem to equip anything in them, are these slots for specific crystals types only?

And do you care if your class is not S tier on a tier list?

hi all, Tyrear from Edge (SEA) here.

i got tired of alt-tabbing every time i craft, so i compiled my own alchemy guide book and figured i'd share it you guys.

what's inside:

• Harmony Draught
• [Party] Demihuman, Edania, Human and Kamasylvia trees, with a 1x tree and a 10x tree using Ibellab's Essence
• full crafting trees for the 5 draughts, plus Tidal, Celerity, Verdure and Viridian
• Part 1 Alchemy (bloods, oils, reagents, essences, special & misc) with in-game icons
• Part 2 Simple Alchemy, Part 3 Imperial Alchemy, and an index
• blood groups name the common pick first, e.g. Lizard Blood for #804

it's made for printing and binding (wide left margin for rings), but works fine as a PDF too.

data is cross-checked with bdolytics, incendar and my own sheet. if you spot a wrong recipe, let me know in the comments and i'll fix it in the next edition.
