In Black Desert Online you can level for many thousands of hours without even coming close to an end. The first player in the world has now reached level 70, even though he entered the race 3 years after everyone else.
What’s the deal with leveling in BDO? In Black Desert Online (BDO for short) you can level up virtually infinitely. While the process goes quite quickly up to level 60, from then on it becomes really slow. The end level in the game is usually level 66. However, there is no real ending.
The MMORPG lets you continue to collect experience points and level up. However, the experience points you need to level up are increasing. So to level up from level 66 to 67 you need about 20 times as long as it took you to go from level 65 to 66.
Level 66 is considered the final level because from then on the experience points required for a level-up no longer increase and you have to grind thousands of hours for a single advancement. It is all the more impressive that the first player has now reached level 70.
Over the years, players have experienced many beautiful moments in Black Desert Online. You can watch it again in the following video:
First player reaches level 70 despite 3 years of disadvantage
Why was he at a disadvantage? The first player in the world has now reached level 70 in Black Desert Online. He probably comes from Brazil and therefore plays on the South American version of the MMORPG.
Black Desert Online only launched its South American servers in 2017, 3 years after the servers were released in the West. The Brazilian, who is now the first to reach level 70, achieved his goal with a handicap of 3 years, during which everyone else was able to level up.
Who is behind it? Little is known about the player. He shared his success on the Twitch platform, where his channel only has the standard description and just over 100 people follow him. There is only one transmission there, the one in which he first reaches level 70.
Who was considered the favorite before? Reaching level 70 came as a surprise to many. In recent years, the American Breeya has repeatedly managed to be the first to reach the new level. For many in the community, he was probably the favorite to be the first player to reach level 70.
It takes Breeya two years to reach level 67. The rocky path that Breeya took back then also shows how difficult it must have been for the Brazilian to catch up with such a disadvantage.
