In the latest patch for the sandbox MMORPG Black Desert Online, you can find a super-rare healing plant called Lakiro. However, unlike regular herbs, you cannot simply uproot it. Instead, there’s a new minigame for skilled gardeners.
What is the significance of the plant? The Lakiro is a rare healing plant that was actually extinct in the story of Black Desert Online. However, now it has miraculously reappeared and can be found in the new region of Drieghan and also outside of this mountainous area, in the Elven forest Kamasilvia.
Why should I search for a Lakiro? Lakiro is a rare herb and extremely valuable. The best Lakiro, when sold in pristine condition, can fetch 100 million silver!
Gardener Minigame for Maximum Success
How do I obtain a Lakiro? First, you should learn how to dig up the plant. The introductory quest for this can be found with Dostter in Duvencrune. The Lakiros in the game world are rare and hard to find, so you will need to scour large areas.
How does the minigame work? Once you have finally found a Lakiro, the fun really starts. You need to carefully remove the soil from the sensitive roots of the herb with the new tool “Hoe” in a cute minigame reminiscent of Minesweeper.
If you are too rough, you might damage the Lakiro or ruin your hoe on nasty pebbles hidden in the soil. A damaged Lakiro will earn you much less reward for your efforts. Since it is very rare, you should really proceed with caution.
Gardeners are immortal: At least you don’t have to worry about gankers while gardening. Because while you are digging in the soil, you are not attackable.
