I am surely a Booper. Your videos on BDO have become a staple for me prior to NA release, as I struggle to decide on a main for this game. More importantly, you crack me up. "Wablam!" and "womboing the shit out of stuff" etc make me and my girl laugh every time we hear them. Keep up the good work man. And thanks.
I've always been more of a caster type in every MMO that I play. After watching this video, I'm almost 100% sure that I am going to be maining a Wizard in Black Desert Online! Thanks for the informative video Hakurai!
+Herman Smink I'm just a little confused with the armor (so many different opinions online right now lol). I ended up going with what he recommends but I dunno if I should do with grunil gloves/helm along with taritas boots/chest, or some other mixture of those armors.
OMG I barely know this channel and I already love it !! Why does not it have many views? I just do not understand. Thanks for sharing your knowledge about the classes, now I know where to start my build :D
This was the best guide i couldve ever found. Thanks. Def playing witch. Now i want to see all your guides for every class so i know how to play against other classes :P
Awesome guide.. been debating if i'm going to get this or not. Really wanted a healer class to play but seeing that a Wizard can heal somewhat works for me.. Great Guide!
Loved the video, I agree with the others this being more of a showcase but I came here for a showcase anyway so it still satisfied my to bits. Just bought the game and downloading it now - cannot wait to start.
@ hakurai Hey i subscribed just because of the great information you have for BDO. Will you be uploading more videos with additional information based on the CBT 2 coming late this month or early February?
+Hakurai As the Blader/Plum video that you posted had a couple (not many) skills that were different between the Female and Male counterparts, was there a single difference between the Witch and the Wizard other than the beard and boobs? - Kat
I just came from your warrior guide and I saw you posted a link for warrior pvp in the description and it looked AWESOME, any videos like that for wizard?
Hey Hakurai, Just recently picked this game up and I'm loving it. I'd like to get my old man to play, but I'm concerned his motion sickness will get the better of him. He's more of an oldschool UO/EQ style MMO'er. Would the wizard be a good choice for him to sit back and cast while I tank with my Valk? Is there a way to shut the bouncing off? It looks great and feels immersive, but it'll make my old man sick as a dog.
Hey Hakuari, is Magic Arrow's accuracy increase component exclusively for the skill? or is it a passive that applies to all of the other skills? tanks for the guides! much love
Excellent videos. Thank you. What class would you suggest for a new player to the game. I'm more interested in the trade skill merchant parts of the game but want to have some fun killing things too.
+Michael Collins Valkyrie has some self healing and high defense, with gap closers and "oh shit" abilities. The Maehwa is a bit more advanced, but moves so quickly and has such high burst that pretty much nothing'll bother you once you get used to her. The Tamer was my first class, though. At lvl 20 you get a giant demon dog that combos with your abilities and acts as a mount for later. Once you figure out the combos and such, you won't die to anything. Also, I realize your comment is 2 months old at the moment, just wanted to help newcomers. Hope I swayed you towards something you'll enjoy playing ^^
Great video, thank you for making it! I just help wondering those keybinds you mention througout the video, is bound and cant be changed for our own preferences? Also you mention Meteor is learned from a quest, can you explain this further?
You missed a couple things: Fireball is insta-castable at a (not 100% on this) minor lost of direct damage. I've been insta-casting it since I knew that fact, and have never noticed the damage being bad. Thunderbolt has no cooldown. It says it does, and shows it on the ui, but it's doesn't and is spammable. You never use Staff attack. Ever. Not even for MP regen. You use either the skill bound to E to get a small amount(20% at max rank) or your fully upgraded Mana Absorption, or from the mana spirit thing. That said, at minimum rank, Mana Absorption does NOT fully fill your MP bar. It does about 60% of it. Rank 2 is good enough, and the final rank will indeed fill the bar. The reason you run while using the teleport skill is because you're still moving while hitting shift. You cannot be moving when trying to use teleport, PLUS it gives you a movement speed that lasts the entire cooldown of the skill - another fact missing from the video. Thunder Storm - the alternate to Thunderbolt when the rage thing is at 100% - blocks. I'm 85% sure it provides a block. I've used it in farming and seen blocking whilst taking no damage, so I'm assuming that's the case. I'll know for sure sometime tomorrow when I log into KR. Its the only major nuke that does this. Both Thunderbolt and Chain Lightning place 3 debuff's on enemies. Idk the names of them, but one of them is related to movement speed I think. Chain Lightning has some good damage to it too. Also, Mana Absorption applies a hefty movement speed debuff - which would be a good idea to use on those tricky/speed bosses. There might be more that's missing too, but I'm not 100% on it.
Hey, i have a question. I recently pre ordert but have not played the game yet. I was wondering if its possible for other people to see my gender in the game?
I mean, like, if you mean character gender, its pretty obvious considering the classes are gender locked. However, if you mean you're RL gender, then that's something no one knows unless you tell them straight up. That's how it goes with every game, really. Hope this helps.
wh3atus Even though I've played wizard a bunch, I couldn't tell you how to build him. There is a calculator out there. To grab all the skills up to lvl 60, it takes almost 1500 skill points. So that's something to keep in the back of the mind. Did a quick google search for it; www.blackdeserttome.com/calculator
Good video - but a little bit misleading. All classes in bdo have secret combos. W/W can instant cast some spells (no not using sage memories) also some skills can be spammed even when on cd.
Hakurai, I'm in the process of making a Witch on EU BD and I was told that Agerian was the best armour for us? Also it seems Liverto may be over priced and exceedingly rare at the moment - i dont quite know what alternates would be, help please?
+ThomasBrawn as of right now if you want cast speed agerian is best (because neil armor isnt in the game). for alternates to liverto, go yuria. yuria weapons are bought from an npc in calpheon for 90k silver and 300 amity (though only accessible if he has 500 amity) there's a debate on yuria vs liverto, liverto scaling better in accuracy/crit dmg with 2 weapon sockets, but yuria is a lot easier to obtain/enchant (repairing max durability) and does more human based dmg
I've got one issue with this/these class/classes. When wanting to cast fireball, I often just end up going a bit backwards and then hitting the air with my pimp-stick. 2-3-4 times out of 10, this happens.. It's fairly annoying (as it lowers damage output and such) and I can't seem to not do it, from time to time.. To be clear; I don't have this issue with any other class that uses the same combination of keys. Any tips?
well this is one of those commentary videos where the person talking is not annoying at all lol, most of videos contain ppl commenting that make annoying noises or blabber on continuously in tangents, this was good to listen to, too bad bdo NA will be b2p wont be able to play..
not sure if my comment was misplaced ot what but just wanted to know if it might be possible to use the razer naga instead of all of the combos, yep hate combos. Aion did that best I think but had to have a lot of action bars and abilities
Was wonder if this guide is still viable for 2018. I wan't to say it is, but i'm not too familiar with a witch. Gladly appreciated if you can reply back :)
i hate such games where u dont have freedom in such basic things. also the graphic options are very limited. one can only set low medium etc and thats overallgraphics.. i want to be able to costum how the game looks..
This is more a showcase than a guide. When i read/view a guide i want to know what would bee a good way to spend my skillpoints, or how i should play.
+The Game yah, that's what I was hoping for.
I was hoping a gear guide
I am surely a Booper. Your videos on BDO have become a staple for me prior to NA release, as I struggle to decide on a main for this game. More importantly, you crack me up.

This video needs way more views! Helped me out allot
+Herman Smink Agreed x10
+Herman Smink hey dude i just wann ask you how u downlad this game?
+natsu dragoneel fairy tail You go to their website and buy it.
+Herman Smink I'm just a little confused with the armor (so many different opinions online right now lol). I ended up going with what he recommends but I dunno if I should do with grunil gloves/helm along with taritas boots/chest, or some other mixture of those armors.
im in same position what you choosed for gear?
Great guide, I got so excited after watching this video to log in and properly use my wizard, so I got in and...went fishing...I so love fishing...
OMG I barely know this channel and I already love it !! Why does not it have many views? I just do not understand. Thanks for sharing your knowledge about the classes, now I know where to start my build :D
This was the best guide i couldve ever found. Thanks. Def playing witch. Now i want to see all your guides for every class so i know how to play against other classes :P
Thank you for doing this! It's a hype builder for sure. Can't wait to see which class you do next!
Great, my go to class for this game seems great, I barely started and taking my sweet time, but now I know what to look forward to. Thanks Hakurai !
Looks like I found my main class...
:D
All your videos are making me so hyped for the NA/EU release
You are amazing man! Great job on the videos, you have a great voice to listen to, good editing, you really deserve more views!
Awesome guide.. been debating if i'm going to get this or not. Really wanted a healer class to play but seeing that a Wizard can heal somewhat works for me.. Great Guide!
just re rolled a witch and this video will help 100000% ty!
Loved the video, I agree with the others this being more of a showcase but I came here for a showcase anyway so it still satisfied my to bits. Just bought the game and downloading it now - cannot wait to start.
Nice guide. Would be nice to see a warrior guide. Should have been the first one even since it's such a normal class in all MMOs.
@ hakurai Hey i subscribed just because of the great information you have for BDO. Will you be uploading more videos with additional information based on the CBT 2 coming late this month or early February?
Very useful guide. I look forward to the NA launch in a couple days! I'm anxiously awaiting news on the Wizard/Witch awakening weapon! D:
Such a useful video. Thank you so much for making such a concise and informative video.
great guide man. could u make blader/plum guide next?
+Arieth working on leveling blader/plum now, in the meantime I'll get tamer out next
+Hakurai
As the Blader/Plum video that you posted had a couple (not many) skills that were different between the Female and Male counterparts, was there a single difference between the Witch and the Wizard other than the beard and boobs?
- Kat
+blackkat101 I'm going with boobs. Maybe they'll distract my enemy?
David Morley yes ;)
I just came from your warrior guide and I saw you posted a link for warrior pvp in the description and it looked AWESOME, any videos like that for wizard?
Looking forward to playing this char. Thanks for the guide it is really useful!

you can turn down or off the screen shake in settings.
Awesome guide, really helped me!
Hey Hakuari, is Magic Arrow's accuracy increase component exclusively for the skill? or is it a passive that applies to all of the other skills?
tanks for the guides! much love

First video of yours i watched, and just subbed! haha great guide so simple to understand for us noobies :D
you remind me of the taraou wow guide guy. used to use his guides for farming in World of Warcraft.
Great video, thank you for making it! I just help wondering those keybinds you mention througout the video, is bound and cant be changed for our own preferences? Also you mention Meteor is learned from a quest, can you explain this further?
Thank you! :D
Love this guide :) Thank you so much! Can't wait to finally get to play BDO!
Thank you for this video, im always healer in every MMO and also DPS mage, and it looks like now i will be able to do blm/heal :P
Sweet! Thanks for the guide!
Awesome video, great explanations, easy to understand i'm subbing!

+Floyd Hunter Thank you for the info dear Sir, do you have a skill tree for the wizard build?
wh3atus Even though I've played wizard a bunch, I couldn't tell you how to build him. There is a calculator out there. To grab all the skills up to lvl 60, it takes almost 1500 skill points. So that's something to keep in the back of the mind.

1500 skill points, maybe someday.. thank you for the info.
Very nice! Thanks dude. Keep up the good work :D
Thanks you for this. Now I'm completely sure that I'm gonna be a wizard! :D
awesome guide!!! You make me more excited about the NA release. How about an enchanter guide.
Great showcase of the skills ect. majority of this is still accurate in 2018?
Good video - but a little bit misleading. All classes in bdo have secret combos. W/W can instant cast some spells (no not using sage memories) also some skills can be spammed even when on cd.
Nicely done, thank you!
Could you help me with a Sorcerer build! I've been looking for one but I don't seem to find
This looks like a lot of fun
Awesome video man! Do you mind sharing your Settings for BDO?
Would love Skill build guides on all classes!
What are your PC specs? game looks awesome in this video
I was just wondering, can I get all the gear from quests/monster drops? If so, which quests and which monsters?
@Hakurai do you have a build calc link that sort of fits in line with your video?
You should do tamer next :)
Are you sure that both genders are the same? I saw some official trailers about mage and witch awakening and they have different weapons and skills
This video is from like 2015, yes they are different after awakening
Could we get a full lay out of the skills you used for this class (skill calculator)?
P.S. Sweet vid good job man!!
god you made me fall in love with another class now i have to decide bettewn corceres withch or tamer ahhh first world problems
my fav class in Black Desert :D
tamer/blader/plum next : D

Ty for the vid, it was really helpful. :)
Thank you. Very helpful :D
You should consider to add the builds to the video pre and after awaking. But still gj
How about a pure support role? All focus on healing, buffing and debuffing?
Oh boy this game looks good.
Great vids. Keep them coming. :)
Are the La Rosa weapon sets and the Neil armor sets available on the NA servers? I'm trying to find them on the market but the do not appear at all.
+xDupak5x nop
not sure if my comment was misplaced ot what but just wanted to know if it might be possible to use the razer naga instead of all of the combos, yep hate combos. Aion did that best I think but had to have a lot of action bars and abilities
Can we get a ninja/kunoichi guide soon! Also a Sorcerer guide. xP I can't make up my mind!
So I started reading a manhwa called The Gamer and now i know where he got all his skills from lol. The MC is a wizard
wich magic class should i take for using lolol magic,like OP magic ?
i can't decide on which class to main, Witch or Tamer? :/ which do you recommend?
+OmNomNaomi Wizard, cause Gandalf
what armor do you recommend for the witch??
I wish I had a guide on skill points for Wizards.
I plan on using the Bares staff, any comments on that?
great video
Nice :D Can you make warrior next?
Was wonder if this guide is still viable for 2018. I wan't to say it is, but i'm not too familiar with a witch. Gladly appreciated if you can reply back :)
does lvling THUNDERBOLT make the 100%black spirit spell stronger?
does the mana regenerate in / out of combat by itself or do you need to go all melee mage on them to regen it?
+LagoonTheToon witch has mana steal with low cd and great regen if speced properly
slayerbllade thanks for the answer,:D
Could you make a guide for Valkyrie? Thanks!
tamer next :D !
Is this class good for farming ?
will you make a new guide when the awakening comes out?
The character creation is insane in this game -_-
Looking like Mayushi from Steins;Gate on the thumbnail.
Sorcerer guide please! Does that class have a male counterpart yet?
do warrior :)... reminds me of the lancer from TERA :P
thx dude
How much AP and DP should I have at lvl 51?
how does the skillsystem in this game work? do u get enough skillpoints to skill all levels?
no unfortunately. they're offering 5 skill point resets when u purchase the explorer xpac. you'll have to spend wisely.
i hate such games where u dont have freedom in such basic things. also the graphic options are very limited. one can only set low medium etc and thats overallgraphics.. i want to be able to costum how the game looks..
do they still have the same skills?
Awesome videos man. sub'd
Can they only use staffs or are wands available to ?
+cyrhas marshall staffs with a dagger off hand
sure its flashy...can wizards actually wear anything but that robe i see constantly on videos?
