Finally, the first part of the Kamasilve update for the sandbox MMO Black Desert Online has been released. In this dark elf forest, there are plenty of new adventures to experience. Discover here where the best farming spots are located and grind your way to a Griffin helmet or Griffin elixir.
Kamasylvia is finally available in the West, adding a vast area to Black Desert Online. But what is there to do in the elf forest? Of course, grinding and farming until the pack donkey protests and collapses under the loot.
Therefore, in the following paragraphs, we will show you the best farming spots from Korea alongside the highlights of the Kamasilve update!
Coop Survival Mode & New Mounts – What Kamasilve 1 Offers You
Kamasylvia is a vast forest that stretches south of the Enchanted Shrine. The area is roughly the size of the Calpheon region and impresses with beautiful and dark forests.
There, you will encounter new mounts, such as the flying horse Arduanatt, in addition to various quests and monsters. Unlike your loyal donkey, this Level 9 mount is capable of flight!
If you prefer coop action, you can have fun at the Training Altar. In this survival mode, the goal is to withstand the onslaught of enemies for as long as possible. If you and your teammates fend off 5 waves of attackers, you will receive particularly generous loot.
Grind Your Way to a Wolf! The Best Farming Spots for the Big Grind
The new region of Kamasilve offers several opportunities to efficiently farm monsters and earn experience points and resources through grinding. In Kamasilve 1, there are three locations that are ideal for grinding:
- Navarn Steppe
- Manshaum Forest
- Mirumok Ruins
The term “meat grinder” fits wonderfully for the new grind. Especially in the steppe, there are plenty of wolves that are quite easy to farm. This works both solo and in a team. However, you should have at least 220 AP so that the little wolves don’t end up farming you instead. On the Korean site invenglobal.com, there are videos about grinding. We have embedded a video with the route to the wolf grind for you.
How to Farm a Griffin Helmet or Griffin Elixir!
In the Navarn Steppe, there are not only harmless wolfies to slaughter. The much more dangerous and rarer Griffins roam there. These feathered creatures are highly sought-after farming targets, as they can drop a particularly cool Griffin helmet. This applies to both the regular Griffins and the even tougher Royal Griffins.
To go on Griffin hunts, you should either have a group or an AP+DP value of 500 or more. Make sure to note that the Griffins are tough opponents who can knock you down and attack very quickly. The Royal Griffins even breathe fire!
The grind is still worthwhile due to the practical resources you can obtain from Griffins:
- Griffin Beak: Can be sold for 21,000 silver. Ideal for farming money
- Griffin Claw: This item is essential for Griffin elixirs. It allows you to deal 12 to 17 percent more damage against Kamasylvian races, making it ideal for further grinding.
We have embedded a video of a solo Griffin farming run from the Korean site Invenglobal here. Have fun replicating it!
