Black Desert is welcoming the new year with style. All players get to receive a special coupon that can be redeemed for special items. This offer is only available until January 9.
Before we reveal the coupon code, the special items that can be received are:
- [Event] Blessing of Old Moon Pack (3 Days) x1
- [Event] Artisan's Memory x10
- [Season] Aurora Snowflake x10
- Advice of Valks (+40) x2
- Kydict's Crystal - Adventure x 1
- Big Garnier Firecracker Box x1
With that out of the way, the code is:
HAPP-YNEW-YEAR-2022
Here are other details to remember about this promotion:
- The coupon can only be redeemed once per Family.
- The coupon can be redeemed from the in-game Menu.
- Redeemed rewards are sent to the in-game mailbox.
- Coupon/Web Storage/In-game Mail Expiration Date is January 9.
- Incorrectly entering the wrong coupon code 10 times in a row prevents players from entering coupon codes for 1 hour.
If you're thinking that's all there is to the celebration, there's more. From December 29 to January 5, players can obtain the special buff called New Year's Hope-filled Aura, which increases the item drop rate by 22%. To get this buff, be sure to meet these requirements:
- Must be at least level 50.
- Must have at least 20 Energy.
This buff can't be stacked more than once. So if you obtain the same buff again, it only refreshes the duration. However, buffs from item scrolls can stack with this event buff.
New Questline
When January 1 arrives, players are treated to a new questline consisting of three quests. That means players need to finish the preceding quest to move to the next one. To accept the questline, players need to be at least level 56. This new questline is only available until January 5. The quests are:
- [Event] Wish Lantern
- Quest NPC: Black Spirit
- Completion Rewards: Contribution EXP 50
- [Event] Make a New Year's Wish
- Quest NPC: Lara
- Completion Rewards: [Event] Wish Lantern Contribution EXP 50
- [Event] For a Better Tomorrow

- Magical Shard x20
- Sharp Black Crystal Shard x10
- Hard Black Crystal Shard x10
Good Fortune
From January 1 to January 5, players must beat monsters for the chance to get the Joyful Pouch of Fortune. Once you have it, just go to the hill above the Coastal Cave and look for NPC Lara. After giving it to her, she'll reward you with:
- Gold Bar 10G x7
- Contribution EXP 500
- Choose 1 from:
- Item Drop Rate +10% (2 hours)
- Skill EXP +50% (2 hours)
- Life EXP +10% (2 hours)
Isn’t this a really good way to welcome the new year?
