● The Great Expedition has begun. 

- Sailors are gathered at taverns and inns in Velia and Epheria looking for captains to head out to the open seas. On the islands, Papu and Otter Barterers are in position and competing against each other to barter with Adventurers. There are people adrift in the distant waters of Margoria each with their own story. Unfamiliar tidal currents are flowing out from the newly discovered mysterious island of Oquilla's Eye. This caused the ocean creatures to get pushed out deep into Calpheon and Balenos, and are threatening their residents.

•  
• ● Barterers, NPCs drifting around Margoria, and Oquilla's Eye NPCs and related knowledge categories were added.
•  
• ● Knowledge for the following sea creatures can now be obtained by defeating them.

• ● Bartering, where you can barter through your ships, was added.

• Bartering, a primitive method of trade where goods were moved from one location to another, is being introduced. This is to focus on a different kind of fun instead of the older method of trade where you would simply aim for a profit margin through the difference in item prices.

  
  

  At first, bartering was designed to only progress as a captain out at sea and not have any currency of value on land. However, after the previous game interview, Adventurers gave us the feedback that they would prefer activities the connect the land and sea organically. After contemplating this point, we’ve decided to make it possible to accumulate wealth that also has value on land naturally.

  
  

  From now on, trade goods that were not being traded as much on land will find new value through bartering. Additionally, you can also obtain a brand new type of currency in Black Desert by reachings the final goal of this content - “Sea Coins”. This currency was spread by a secretive organization, but it’s known to bring great riches and glory to the person that gathers them. That man will soon be unveiled at Crow’s Nest.

- Bartering is available through Papu / Otter Barterers positions on islands and drifting sailors in Margoria. If the required items are available onboard the ship, then they will automatically be exchanged and loaded. 

(Please note, items in your character’s Inventory cannot be used to barter.)

- The following bartering happens on all island nodes out at sea.

Level 1 Trade	Land Materials -> Level 1 Sea Trade Good
Level 2 Trade	Level 1 Sea Trade Good -> 2 Sea Trade Good
Level 3 Trade	Level 2 Sea Trade Good -> Level 3 Sea Trade Good
Level 4 Trade	Level 3 Sea Trade Good -> Level 4 Sea Trade Good
Level 5 Trade	Level 4 Sea Trade Good -> Level 5 Sea Trade Good
Final Trade	Level 5 Sea Trade Good -> Sea Coin
Other Trade	Trade Goods -> New ship materials and enhancement materials

- Certains barters offer materials needed to improve new ships and equipment enhancement materials. 

- Obtained “Sea Coins” can be seen under the LT bar in your inventory.

 

Additionally, Sea Trade Goods can be sold to vendors for silver starting with level 3 and up. The price increases as the level of the goods increase.

Level 1 Sea Trade Good (800LT)	Cannot be sold
Level 2 Sea Trade Good (800LT)	Cannot be sold
Level 3 Sea Trade Good (900LT)	1,000,000 Silver (Can be sold)
Level 4 Sea Trade Good (1,000LT)	2,000,000 Silver (Can be sold)
Level 5 Sea Trade Good (1,000LT)	5,000,000 Silver (Can be sold)

- The barter item list reset every day in the morning according to the time in Black Desert. You can exchange 100 times every 4 hours. (A day in Black Desert is around 4 hours of real-time.)

- Offers for bartering will come from a small number of islands at first. However, the more you barter, increasing number of Papus and Otters from more islands will start giving you offers.

•  
• ● Storage Keepers from each of the regions have turned their attention towards bartering and have started to stock up on trade items.

* Sea Trade Goods can be sold through “Currency Exchange” at the same price they are sold to regular vendors.

* Level 3 - 5 Sea Trade Goods can be sold to regular vendors while only Level 5 Sea Trade Goods can be sold to the “Currency Exchange”.

- Level 3 Sea Trade Good

- Level 4 Sea Trade Good

- Level 5 Sea Trade Good

• ● Barter Information can be found on the Barter Information window, located in the bottom right sections of the World Map (M).

• - The camera will move to the island when you click on the trade good in the Barter UI.

 

 

• ● While bartering, special bartering offers can become available at a low chance through Barterer NPCs on each of the islands.
• ● Special barters are event like barters that can be made available by random chance during regular bartering. It happens much less often compared to regular barters, but special bartering allows you to barter for expensive items or a large sum of Sea Coins.

- The more times you repeatedly barter, increases the probability a special barter will become available.

- If you barter Gold Bars through special bartering, then you can get Sea Coins or expensive items that cannot be obtained through regular bartering.

- You must arrive at the island to know what item you will get from the special barter.

- When a special barter becomes available, it appears on the World Map (M) Barter Information UI with a golden badge icon.

- Information about the area where the special barter is available can be found on the Barter Information window.

- A system message will be displayed when a special barter becomes available.

- You can select between regular barters and special barters on the Barter window.

- The goods information for Special Bartering will not change every 4 hours.

- No new special barters will become available if the goods are not bartered for an already existing special barter.

 

 

• ● A new vendor that accepts Sea Coins was added.

- This vendor can be accessed through < Ravinia >, the Sea Coin Exchange on Crow’s Nest. Various ocean related items like Khan's Concentrated Magic can be bought here.

 

• ● Exchange 10 Sea Coins through the Sea Coin Exchange to get “Sea Coin Coupons”. These coupons can be exchanged through < Ravinia >,  the Sea Coin Exchange, for certain items that can be sold for silver.

Sea Coin Coupon x125 → Manos Necklace x1

Sea Coin Coupon x131 → Manos Earring x1

Sea Coin Coupon x120 → Manos Ring x1

Sea Coin Coupon x125 → Manos Belt x1

Sea Coin Coupon x2 → Manos Stone x1

 

 

• ● The new ship Epheria Cog was added.
• 

- It has fast base speed but vulnerable against sea monster threats as it has low durability.

- The skill "BreezySail" is a standard skill for this ship.

- Once its Lifespan drops, its speed will drop significantly and make it difficult to use.
