Adventurers, have you met your goals this 2021 Summer Season?

Are you looking to broaden your experience of the world of Black Desert on the normal server?

If so, try the Season Graduation to switch from a Season character to a normal character.

When you proceed with Graduation, you receive an abundance of different rewards to help you advance in-game.

You can attain normal items that are sold at the Central Market and more to expand your Black Desert experience.

Your journey on the Season Servers doesn’t need to end right now, as you still have quite some time until the Summer Season ends.

For Adventurers who wish to take their time enjoying the Summer Season can do so alongside [GM] Grana before the end of the Season!

Tip! [GM] Grana’s recommendation for graduating

Graduation allows you to reap the rewards from all the hard work you have put into your Season character. Fughar, a man all Season characters should be familiar with, is happy that you are continuing your adventures through the Black Desert world, and will send you a very generous graduation gift.

This includes limited edition items that can only be earned from Season Graduation as well as other valuable weapons that will be immensely helpful on the normal server.

First, let’s open the Gift Box Full of Memories from Fughar...

* Fughar congratulates you on your graduation with more gift boxes filled with a variety of items on top of the mentioned gifts.

▼ More information on items attainable from the “Gift Box Full of Memories”

The main thing we should focus on from the gift boxes is the [Season] Boss Gear Exchange Coupon!

[Season] Boss Gear Exchange Coupon is a special item that converts Tuvala gear that has been converted into normal Season gear into Boss Gear (more on converting Tuvala later.)

▲ Using a [Season] Boss Gear Exchange Coupon allows you to turn Tuvala gear into Boss gear!

Choose wisely which armor you wish to use it for!

*For example, using [Season] Boss Gear Exchange Coupon on PEN: Tuvala Armor will convert it to TET: Dim Tree's Spirit Armor

For your fantastic adventures in the normal server, you will also be gifted a Season Special Gift Exchange Coupon!

* Begin the ‘[Perilla's Star] Fughar's Woe’ Quest through the Black Spirit to learn about the story of Fughar, who, left by his lover for being poor, works hard to escape poverty, as well as the story of Perilla, who abandoned him.  

* ‘[Perilla's Star] Fughar's Woe’ can be started with a Season character higher than Lv. 51, or with [Season Server Graduation] “Into the Tangled World, Serendia” completed using a Season character changed to a normal character.

You can obtain ‘Season Special Gift Exchange Coupons’ through ‘[Perilla's Star] Fughar's Woe’ consecutive quest chains.

For those Adventurers who have achieved their goals on the Season Server, make sure to complete the following requirements so you can smoothly Graduate from the Season Server.

 Please note, if you proceed with Graduation without using the [Event] Black Spirit Pass, you will no longer be able to use it.

Are you ready to explore the wonderful world of Black Desert with Fughar’s gifts? If so, look for NPC Leyla in Velia to receive and complete the Graduation quest.

After completing the quest the ‘[Season Server Graduation] At the Crossroad’, you will obtain the ‘Honorable Adventurer’s Certificate’. This item can only be used on a regular server, and once the item is used, your Season Character will become a regular character.

* You can only use the Honorable Adventurer's Certificate once you fulfill all of the graduation requirements.

▼ How to use the Tuvala Conversion Stones

While Graduation is available after the August 11^th update, it doesn’t really matter if you choose to graduate a week or even a month later. If you are an Adventurer who wants to relax on the Season Server more, or looking to finish off your character, there is still plenty to do.
