Black Desert What Letter Consider to Be Good Knowledge
The season server is a recent event in the life of BDO that is designed to make things easier for old and new players by providing events and rewards to its participants that greatly facilitate the leveling and gearing process. One such season usually lasts for a few months, during which time we have the opportunity to develop a new character to an already relevant level.
I think this is a very good opportunity for new players because it helps a lot to catch up with older players as it provides a lot more help than leveling a character during the off-event period. Anyway, anyone can create such a character, not specifically just new or returning players. For them, additional rewards are the attraction, and of course, to try new classes.

Season+ Details (2021)
Event period: Sept 15, 2021 – Dec 1, 2021
Graduation Period: Oct 14, 2021, after maintenance – End of the Season
Next Season: Winter Season starts at 22nd Dec with class reboots
In the main event period, anyone is free to create a seasonal character and join the event, and as we have become accustomed to, can choose any class as a seasonal character. I usually suggest making the newly arriving class as a seasonal character because there are more rewards for leveling them. This season, however, we didn't get a new class.
What has changed since previous seasons? Even more rewards! On the one hand, and on the other hand, we had to say goodbye to Capotia accessories, as we won't be getting another PEN Capotia accessory this season for successful preparation. But even so, it's a very good opportunity for a new player to catch up with others or a veteran player to pocket new rewards!
Creating a Season Character
You can create a seasonal character at the Create Character window after you choose your character and ticked the „Season Character" option. You can create only one season character per family (each season), however, you have the option to create a new one if you deleted the one you had previously created. As opposed to classic characters, season characters only take 3 minutes to delete.
Once you have created a Season Character, you will see a special mark in the character selection window which shows you that the character is a Season Character.
Changed your mind? No problem: The latest season offers a very useful innovation as we have got an item called Fughar's Timepiece. It can be obtained once per Family upon completing the [Season] Fughar's Special Timepiece quest with a seasonal character that is Lv. 25 or higher. This item transfers your season character status and Combat/Skill EXP into a level 25 or lower (!) character. As a result of the conversion, you will also receive 3 Tuvala Weapon Exchange Coupons in the inventory of the newly converted character. If you feel you can't choose what class to play, check out our Class Guide.
Season Servers
Season Servers are focused on character growth, but Only Season Characters can enter the Season Servers. It provides Combat EXP +100%; Skill EXP +20% buff for the entire duration of the event.
Forced PvP is not possible in the Season Servers. Season Arsha Server, a server that will allow players to use forced PvP, was created specifically for that.
Their name is Season 1-5 and Season(PVP) which was renamed from Kamasylvia 1-4 solely for the duration of the event period. The Season 1 (Novice only) server is exclusive for new adventurers.
Event NPC: Fughar
Fughar is a Season Server exclusive NPC who will be located next to the Stable Keepers in large towns including Velia. Most season-related quests are available from him, so you'll encounter quite a few during your journey.
Season Pass and the Black Spirit Pass
The essence of the Season Pass is that you have to complete various missions for which valuable rewards come. This is only available on season characters and can be accessed by clicking on the Season Pass icon in the upper right corner (in the picture below). This is a free feature available to everyone.
The Black Spirit Pass, on the other hand, is already paid, it can be obtained from the Pearl Shop(F3) above level 10, it is a premium version of the season pass with premium rewards. The rewards here are also in the Season Pass window, this is in the second column as shown in the image above.
In both cases, the rewards must be activated and taken out one after the other. However, it is not mandatory to complete the missions in order, the system will save them in case you can activate them in order later.
Season Character Benefits
You can pocket several rewards during the event, which are:
1. Bountiful skill EXP
You can obtain the [Season] Secret Book of the Misty Breeze from Fughar whenever you complete the main quests for Balenos, Serendia, Calpheon, Mediah, Valencia, Grána, and Drieghan.
Use the [Season] Secret Book of the Misty Breeze to get plenty of Skill EXP and grow your character by learning more powerful skills.
2. Leveling Aid Boxes
If you reach Lv. 10 with your season character, you will get a [Season] New Adventure Box as a Season Pass objective completion reward. You receive more items from Leveling Aid Boxes as you level up your character. These all contain items that will help you on your journey up to level 61. If you delete this item, the item is not obtainable in any other form.
3. Enhancement gear of Advice of Valks
You can accept season-exclusive quests from Fughar, one per Family.
Excluding accessories, if you equip 7 TRI (III) Tuvala gears, you will receive 7 Advice of Valks (+40), and if you equip 7 TET (IV) Tuvala gears, you will receive 7 Advice of Valks (+60).
4. Collect and exchange!
During the event period, you can collect special items from the Black Spirit Pass and exchange them for various rewards. In some seasons it was Coco Leaf and later Morning Frostflower, Swell Sea Shell , and now it's Sunset Maple Leaf.

Rift's Echo is a new boss scroll recommended for parties of 5 and can only be summoned on Season servers. You can craft this scroll from Rift's Fragments x5, if you arranged them in a shape into a +. These fragments can be obtained by defeating monsters in Valencia, Kamaslyvia, or Drieghan, or as a reward from Savage Rift. Rift Echo can be obtainable from doing weekly quests (which I explained below in the Quests section). If your team has successfully defeated the monsters summoned by the scroll, the obtainable items are Time-filled Black Stones, Tuvala Ore, Refined Magical Black Stones, and Tuvala Accessories.

These are the latest rewards of season passes, the [Season] Crow Merchants Guild Contribution Certificate I x15 is the Season Pass's reward, while [Season] Crow Merchants Guild Contribution Certificate II x15 is the Black Spirit Pass's (P2W pass).
Take this items to Fughar to start the daily quests, which reward you the following items:
Seasonal Gears
Special characters deserve special gear. Since Season characters cannot equip regular gear, you have to equip the character with Naru and Tuvala gear. Only the Asula jewelry set is an exception to this, as well as the main story quest's reward items. Items that can be used are marked with a yellow Black Spirit mark. While seasonal characters have an advantage in many ways, they still lack one thing: their inability to ride T9 horses.
Naru Gear
The Naru gear first introduced in the Autumn season was slightly weaker than Tuvala gear, but they can be obtained during your adventures from Balenos to Mediah. Naru gear can also be enhanced with Beginner Black Stones and allow you to reach higher enhancement levels more easily compared to enhancing Tuvala gear. Show Fughar a Naru gear enhanced up to PEN (V) level and he will upgrade it to a Tuvala gear of PRI (I) level (of the same gear part) for you.
Where to obtain Naru Gear pieces:
- Monsters drop in Serendia, Calpheon and Mediah
- At the end of the main story quests in Serendia and Calpheon
- Exchange Beginner Black stones
About Beginner Black stones:
You can obtain them from the main story quest, or by heating regular black stones to turn them into Beginner Black Stones.
You can exchange them for Naru Gear at Fughar:
Enhancing Naru Gear:
Naru gear is much easier to enhance than Tuvala gear. You need to use Beginner Black Stones to enhance Naru gear, and you don't even have to use failstacks for it. Naru armor and weapons can be enhanced up to PEN and accessories up to TRI.
How to Exchange PEN Naru Gear into PRI Tuvala Gear?
Once you reach PEN Naru armor/weapons, Fughar can exchange them for you for PRI Tuvala gear. The requirement is a finished Mediah main questline or completed [Special Growth] Fughar's Memorandum – Chapter 8 in the case of skipping main questlines. So Visit Fughar, if the gear is equipped, unequip them, and select the Chat function with him.
Tuvala Gear
Only Season Characters can use Tuvala gear, and to get Tuvala gear you will need Tuvala Ores. You can get Tuvala Ores by defeating monsters in Valencia, Kamasylvia, Drieghan, and Sycraia Underwater Ruins. When you have collected enough, you can take your Tuvala Ores to blacksmiths to exchange them for weapons, defense gear, or accessories. Blacksmiths NPCs can be found in most large towns.
Exchange Tuvala Ore x1 to one of the following:
Exchange Tuvala Ore x5 to one of the following:
Tuvala Accessories (from basic to PEN) can be Heated for Tuvala Ores through the Processing Widow(L) and select Heating.
Enhancing Tuvala Gear:
If you need more help about enhancing, check out our Enhancing Guide.
Basically, Tuvala Gear pieces use Time-filled Black Stones to enhance. It is a slightly more difficult process than enhancing Naru Gear, but still much easier than enhancing the regular gear pieces. However, there are two more items that can be used for improvements, which are Refined Magical Black Stone and Frozen Tides Black Stone. The Refined Magical Black Stone used to perform guaranteed enhancement on Tuvala gear from PRI (I) to TRI (III). Stones required for PRI (I) gear: 10, for DUO (II) gear: 20, and for TRI(III) gear: 30. The Frozen Tides Black Stone guarantees a successful enhancement from TET to PEN in the case of Tuvala Gear enhancement (cannot use on accessories). This stone can be obtained through the Season Pass, but not in very large quantities, so use it wisely.
If the durability of the Tuvala gear goes down if your enhancement attempt fails, go see a blacksmith to recover the Max durability of your gear and try again.
Suggested Fail Stacks for enhancing:
Tuvala Armor & Weapons:
Enhancement | Failstack |
---|---|
+15 | 10 |
PRI | 10 |
DUO | 20 |
TRI * | 30 |
TET | 40 |
PEN** | 60 |
*use 30 Refined Magical Black Stones for TRI if you have them.
**Frozen Tides Black Stone can be used in this level of enhancement.
Tuvala Accessory:
Enhancement | Failstack |
---|---|
PRI | 0 |
DUO | 5 |
TRI | 10 |
TET | 20 |
PEN | 50 |
Note: The [Season] Rift Frostflower was the earlier season's special drop, its equivalent is the [Season] Rift's Thorn.
Quests
Main Quests
It's important to follow the main quest chains, because it is essential in many ways, for example, the Season Pass also gets to the last reward through these. I mentioned above that for every milestone you leave when you complete one of the territorial main questlines, you obtain the [Season] Secret Book of the Misty Breeze. This book is important because it contains plenty of Skill EXP which helps you to grow your character by learning more powerful skills. If you started this season as a new player, be sure to follow the main questlines, and ignore the following section that applies to Simplified Main Questline:
Skipping Main Quests
For the summer season, the developers listened to the prayers of the veteran players and we finally got the Simplified Main Questline. Its requirements are a previously completed Mediah main questline and a completed [Pet] Bareeds' Junaid quest offered by the NPC Bareeds III. Adventurers who fulfill all the requirements and have completed the main questline up 'till "The Sage of Velia" can accept the [Special Growth] Birth of a Prestigious Family quest from the NPC Alustin in Velia.
Pay close attention when you arrive in Velia with the main quests, because if you do not take this quest, you will automatically start the original questline and you can no longer start this simplified line. This chain of quests is time-saving and all rewards can be earned with it.
This quest gives you a Fughar's Memorandum – Chapter 1, this is the first part, and then we finally come to the end through 11 chapters. Follow the instructions in the quests until you reach the last chapter. The last quest of the simplified questline, "[Season] Fughar's Memorandum – Chapter 11," will make the character have fulfilled the same prerequisites of a character who has completed the Mediah main questline and allow them to start the Valencia questline.
Simplified Main Questline Overview | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Quest Name | Objective | Target NPC | Rewards | Completion of Season Pass |
[Season] Birth of Prestigious Family | Go and talk to Fughar | Fughar | ||
[Season] Fughar's Conundrum | Speak to Fughar | Fughar | ||
[Season] Following in His Footsteps | Speak to Fughar and receive the book | Fughar | ||
[Season] Fughar's Memorandum – Chapter 1 | Reach Lv. 20 | Black Spirit | ||
[Season] Fughar's Memorandum – Chapter 2 | Reach Lv. 30 | Black Spirit |
| Joy of Growing Stronger Practice Like You Mean It Be Prepared! I'll Do It My Way |
[Season] Fughar's Memorandum – Chapter 3 | Reach Lv. 35 | Black Spirit |
| Honestly and Appropriately I Make the Decisions You? You're Too Easy Fly to the Sky |
[Season] Fughar's Memorandum – Chapter 4 | Reach Lv. 40 | Black Spirit |
| Battlefield Attendance! The Scent of Prey! |
[Season] Fughar's Memorandum – Chapter 5 | Reach Lv. 45 | Black Spirit |
| A Hero in Troubled Times! Look For Those In Need! In Your Name! |
[Season] Fughar's Memorandum – Chapter 6 | Reach Lv. 50 | Black Spirit |
| See You Again Someday Evil's Descent? Not On My Watch |
[Season] Fughar's Memorandum – Chapter 7 | Reach Lv. 55 | Black Spirit |
| With Burning Passion The Choice is Mine Don't Get Ahead of Yourself! |
[Season] Fughar's Memorandum – Chapter 8 | Reach Lv. 56 | Black Spirit |
| For A Satisfying Conclusion Race Towards the End |
[Season] Fughar's Memorandum – Chapter 9 | Reach Lv. 57 | Black Spirit |
| |
[Season] Fughar's Memorandum – Chapter 10 | Reach Lv. 58 | Black Spirit |
| |
[Season] Fughar's Memorandum – Chapter 11 | Go talk to Fughar, who can be found in any town | Fughar |
If you've changed your mind and still don't want to choose this path, you have the option to forfeit the quest and return to the main quests, but only if you are at the very first quest ([Season] Birth of Prestigious Family) and you haven't finished yet it. Once you have completed this quest, you would forfeit it in vain.
Weekly Quests
There are 23 recurring quests, which you can do. You can find these at the Quest Window (press O), and select the Recurring tab, and then choose the [Season] Stronger Tuvala Gear title. These give you valuable rewards, so I definitely recommend that you complete these quests.
Obtainable rewards:
Regional Quests
Regional quests are very useful because they give you useful things, like stones and accessories. If you enter the monster area, the quest will be popped automatically. The goal is to kill a certain amount of monsters in each area. The quests rewards are only available for season characters, if you do it with your non-season character, it will give you only Combat EXP.

Graduation
There is usually early graduation in each season, which by implication allows you to transform the seasonal character into a normal character, and collect the rewards sooner. Unconverted characters are automatically converted to normal characters at the end of the season but are not automatically deleted in any way.
- 2021 Season+ graduation requirement: rewards earned and claimed from the whole Season Pass (also Black Spirit Pass if purchased), and no longer in possession of the Fughar's Timepiece

How to Convert Tuvala Gear
When you graduate, you can obtain a total of 13 Tuvala Conversion Stones which matches a full set of gear that allows you to convert the season-exclusive Tuvala gear to normal gear. Keep in mind that using the [Season] Tuvala Armor Conversion Stone will result in items that can no longer be enhanced.
Boss Gear Exchange
You can use the [Season] Boss Gear Exchange Coupon you acquire during graduation on a converted Tuvala gear to exchange it for a Boss gear. Only one [Season] Boss Gear Exchange Coupon is given per Family and since you can convert only one of your Tuvala gear parts into a Boss gear.
