Black Desert Online (BDO) is a massive game where silver is a must to progress. Aside from Lifeskilling, where you just A.F.K and gain silver by doing something in just a little time, grinding is different. You play your favorite character killing monsters to gain silver. This is the fastest way to progress in this game, and you level up your skills by playing your character’s ability kit to maximize your class gameplay.
Grinding mobs to gain silver is an exhausting task, kind of not enjoyable; repeatable rotation skills in an area for an hour. This guide will show you the top ten spots in BDO where you gain more silver, but the cons are you need to reach some AP(attack power) and DP(defense power) to grind these spots efficiently.
POLLY’S FOREST
This is the best grind spot for beginners once you reach level 56 and up. Until level 60, this place is a must for new players because this area has a shallow minimum AP requirement of just 160AP. This place also is the best for gaining skill points. What you will also love about this place is its dark and peaceful environment.
When you grind in this area, you will gain a silver here of 93mil an hour.
SULFUR MINE
If you start from a seasonal character completing your tuvalu quest and gears to PEN the maximum enhancement in BDO, then the Sulfur Mine is your first choice. The minimum AP requirement here is 230AP, and you will have almost just one shot for every pact of mobs here. This place is also good for skill points grinding, like Polly’s forest.
The only con of Sulfur Mine is that most players with high Gear Scores grind here for the Archeologist Map piece. Yes, this monster spot drops one of the rarest items here in BDO, so you might have a problem defending your spot from high-level players, and they might kill you on the spot.
If you grind in Sulfur Mine, you will gain silver here at 200mil an hour.
CENTAURS
The Centaurs are the best spot for money for low-gear players. In terms of trash loot alone, you will be making around 230mil per hour here. You will be making 400mil plus of all drops here. If you want a chill grind spot, then Centaurs is a highly recommended grinding spot. This area only requires 190AP and 200DP.
HYSTRIA RUINS
Hystria Ruins is perfect for seasonal players with a minimum of 245AP and 309DP. This is where you will also learn how to pull mobs while grinding to maximize your per-hour silver gain. And it is also suitable for using your Agris fever that multiplies your trash loot drops.
However, this place is hard to find because the portal to this place is located in the desert, where the portal changes location from time to time. Thus, you must roam around the desert just to get to Hystria Ruins. The easiest way to go to the said area is by tagging a Sage class. This is because he has a passive ability called Ators Eyes that lets you enter Hysteria instantly.
Like Sulfur Mine, this place drops one of the rarest parts of Lafi Bedmountain Upgraded Compass, making it a crowded place to grind. You will gain 215mil per hour of silver when you grind here.
STARS END
