The world of Black Desert faces a new threat: the Queen of Harpies, Karanda. Test your mettle against Karanda for a chance to obtain the Dandelion Weapon Box, containing the strongest Awakening weapon in Black Desert.

Along with Karanda comes a new World Boss schedule. Please check the schedule listed below.

Harpies are ferocious beasts, but only the strongest can be crowned Karanda. As the leader of all harpies, Karanda defends the longevity of her species with her unparalleled speed and incredible strength.  

Flanked by her harpies, Karanda leads the invasion of Delphe Knights Castle. None know why this war rages on, though some postulate that Karanda has a need to show off her superiority. 

Any Adventurer foolish enough to challenge the Queen of Harpies can find her at Karanda Ridge.

Karanda Ridge

Head north of Delphe Outpost and make your way to Karanda Ridge to face-off against the Queen of Harpies.

Karanda is one of the most difficult opponents that you will face, so make sure that you are adequately prepared. You will need high AP, DP, and HP, but even then Karanda is not easy to subjugate.

Defeating Karanda

The Queen of Harpies is an opponent like none other Adventurers have faced; Karanda attacks from the sky, so you will need a different strategy to take her down. A word of advice: be nimble and keep moving to safety before Karanda launches her attacks.

When Karanda flies towards the sky, move away from the edges and go under her - Karanda will attack everything around her. 

Karanda will descend for just a moment and then take off again. Before she lands, quickly move away from her landing area to avoid her attack!

Karanda has devastating regular attacks, but she also has dangerous ranged attacks. Classes that prefer distance like Ranger, Wizard, and Witches will need to keep their wits about them and be wary of what comes at them.

Reward

Once defeated, Karanda has a chance to drop the Dandelion Weapon Box. This is highly coveted as it is the best Awakening weapon in Black Desert, maximizing your Awakening AP.
