A remake of the underwater ruins of Sycraia

The underwater ruins of Sycraia have long been a popular hunting ground for adventurers thanks to their theme of ancient weapons from the deep sea.
This update preserves the original experience and charm of hunting in the Sycraia Underwater Ruins, while increasing the anticipation of the rewards earned along the way.
A key element of the Sycraia Underwater Ruins redesign is the addition of a mechanic that causes Sycraia memories to appear during battles. This mechanic appears when certain conditions are met during combat, and the rewards from this mechanic increase as the battle progresses.
Additionally, in addition to the new loot in the Sycraia Underwater Ruins – the Sycraia Crystal – we’ve also added the Refined Origin of Dark Hunger and Refined Essence of Devouring as exclusive loot for the Prime Hunting Grounds. This further increased the rewards available at hunting grounds labeled as “Top Locations.” Additionally, we’ve reduced the drop rates of Crimson and Violet Primordial Luster found in Top Locations, increasing the rarity of unique loot from that location.

• Deep underwater, in the lower layers of the ruins of Sycraia, a will was discovered containing memories of the magnificent Sycraia.
  • The name of the Sycraia Underwater Ruins (Deep Level) has been changed to Sycraia Underwater Ruins (Lower Level)..
    • The name of the underwater ruins of Sycraia (upper level) has also been changed to Sycraia Ruins Upper Level.
    • Due to the change in the name of the Sycraia ruins, the names and descriptions of some quests, dialogues, knowledge, items and titles have been changed..
  • The following information has been added to the section on the lower level hunting grounds of the Sycraia Ruins.
    • Possibility of acquiring treasures.
  • The lower level of the Sycraia Ruins has been reworked into a Top-tier location, with difficulty and loot adjusted.

• Due to the addition of the Crystal of Sycraia, which is a higher-tier crystal, the following Magic Crystals will be removed during scheduled maintenance on February 25, 2026 (Korea) and February 26, 2026 (Global version of the game), and the corresponding silver cost will be paid:
  – Red Battlefield Crystal: Adamantine
  – Red Battlefield Crystal: Fighting Spirit
  – Red Battlefield Crystal: Giant

• For adventurers seeking to gain knowledge of ecology, monsters will appear in certain areas of the lower levels of the Sycraia Ruins.
  • Re-released monsters can be distinguished from existing ones by the presence of the word “Ancient Weapon” in their names. If the word “Ancient Weapon” is not present, it is an existing monster..

Monsters in the lower levels of the existing ruins of Sycraia	Re-release of lower-tier monsters from the Sycraia Ruins

※ The difference in the color of the monster is due to the lighting of the environment where it appears, but the actual color is the same.

Among the wreckage of damaged ancient weapons, still dedicated to protecting the underwater ruins, floats an unsealed ancient weapon. Each time the damaged weapon is destroyed, the unsealed ancient weapon draws the attention of the intruder.

• An ancient weapon sealed in the upper level of the Sycraia ruins has awakened to rule the upper level.
  • The difficulty and loot on the upper level of the Sycraia Ruins have been adjusted.

• When using Allan Serbin’s paintings, the chance of obtaining a Rich Merchant’s Ring Piece from the Sycraia Underwater Ruins has been increased by approximately 1.33 times compared to the previous level, similar to the level in the Hunting Grounds.

    • Ring, necklace, belt and Earrings Deboreka level (II)

  • Accordingly, the Ancient Creature’s Scale stored on the official server will be paid out in silver of equivalent value during the scheduled maintenance on February 25, 2026 (Korea) and February 26, 2026 (Global Server).
  • If the Form of an Ancient Creature has not yet expired during the scheduled maintenance on February 25, 2026 (Korea) and February 26, 2026 (Global), the corresponding amount of silver will be paid. If the item has expired, the silver will not be paid and the item will be removed.
• The three daily quests that could be completed in the upper and lower levels of the Sycraia Ruins have been removed and replaced with one weekly quest.
  • [Weekly][Upper Level] Preparing to Go Out
  • [Weekly] [Lower Class] The Fierce Guys

Improved ease of movement in the ruins of Sycraia.

With the reorganization of the Sycraia Ruins, many adventurers will be eager to access these hunting grounds. Previously, when many sought items like the Tungrad Ring in the Sycraia Ruins, accessing them was quite difficult. Therefore, we’ve simplified the journey by adding a quest that allows you to immediately reach the upper level of the Sycraia Ruins via NPCs in Velia Village and Iliya Island. 

• Added a quest that requires you to hand over the “Fragment of the Deep Sea” item to the next NPC and move to the upper level of the Sycraia Ruins.

Items

Refined Origin of Dark Hunger

Dark Hunger items, which increase the chance of enhancing, are a constant necessity for adventurers upgrading their gear. A new infusion item, the Refined Origin of Dark Hunger, was recently added, further enhancing the significance and value of the newly added top-tier hunting grounds..

• Added “Refined Origin of Dark Hunger” and the material item “Refined Essence of Devouring” which can increase the chance of enhancing.
  • Both items can be obtained from higher-tier hunting grounds (currently Star’s End, Zephyros Castle, and the lower level of Sycraia Ruins).
  • Information about the following objects has been added to the hunting grounds information interface:
    • The Refined Origin of Dark Hunger, the Refined Essence of Devouring

Item name	Uses	Central Market Price
Refined Origin of Dark Hunger	Increased chance of enhancing gear through the use of Dark Hunger	Upper limit: 6 000 000 000 silver Upper limit: 2 000 000 000 silver
Refined Origin of Dark Hunger	Materials for crafting the “Refined Origin of Dark Hunger” (Collect 4 and process → heat)	Upper limit: 1 500 000 000 silver Upper limit: 500 000 000 silver

Increased chance of improvement when using Refined Origin of Dark Hunger. 

Improved Dark Hunger Efficiency

• In Dark Hunger mode, the use of weapons and armor as materials has been implemented with the following changes:
  • Additionally, when using Dark Hunger on weapons and armor, changes have been made to only allow items with a boost level of IV or V to be used.
    • When using Dark Hunger on weapons and armor, the chance to receive the enhancement will definitely increase.
  • The February 25, 2026 (Korea) and February 26, 2026 (Worldwide) updates will change the chance of weapon and armor stats being boosted when using Dark Hunger.

• Using Dark Hunger on a weapon or armor will now display a notification window instead of immediately continuing.

• Since Dark Hunger gear is now available starting at level IV, the ability to obtain Black Stone is now available up to level III.

Blessing of Mystic Beasts – Life

Coral Crab furniture items obtained by hunting in the Edania region provide a bonus to Hunting Skill. Therefore, several considerations were made when adding the hunting-related “Blessing of Mystic Beasts – Hunting.” Adding “Blessing of Mystic Beasts – Hunting” would only benefit those who enjoy hunting, and if it were only available in the Edania region, the benefits of existing hunting grounds would be weakened. Furthermore, it was discussed that adding a separate “Blessing of Mystic Beasts” for each type of crafting content would be too complex and inconvenient for adventurers. Therefore, instead of “Blessing of Mystic Beasts – Hunting,” we simplified the process by integrating all crafting skills into “Blessing of Mystic Beasts – Life,” allowing players to obtain materials and craft items by hunting in any region, not just Idania. We hope that hunting content will seamlessly integrate with other crafting content, adding another layer of enjoyment to hunting.

• Added a new bonus “Blessing of Mystic Beasts – Life”, which increases the level of crafting skills.

• Improvements have been made to the descriptions of items that can be used to create Magic Crystals (see below) to more clearly indicate the materials required to craft them.

Example before making changes	Example after change

• Descriptions of some guild items have been improved, and information on use and acquisition has been added.
• When receiving the following items, the notification and animation accompanying the congratulations at the top of the screen will no longer appear.

• Added effects for terrain knowledge not acquired in the areas of O’dyllita, Atoraxxion, and Morning Light.

• When accepting the quests “[Morning Light] The Tale of Duoksini” and “[Morning Light] The Tale of the Oduksini” from the Black Spirit, they will now appear in the “Recommended Quests” tab under “Quests” (A) instead of under “Main Quests” (Q).
• A new dialogue option has been added to the dialogue with Cliff, the martial arts professor at Olvia Academy, where you can ask him questions about equipping relics,  lightstones, and crystals.
• A question about the commission’s work was added to the dialogue with Emma Bartali, the administrator of Olivia Academy.

Background, NPCs, effects, cutscenes

Expanding trade for everyday goods

Previously, merchants selling fruits, mushrooms, and herbs were limited to Calpheon, the world’s largest city, or to specific cities based on regional characteristics. However, recognizing the continued demand from adventurers freely traveling between cities, the Commerce Guild has deployed merchants selling these essential goods to every major city in Black Desert.

• New NPC merchants have been added to major cities and towns:
  • With the addition of the NPC merchant, the placement of some objects and NPCs has been slightly changed.

Now all major cities will have vendors selling herbs, mushrooms and fruits.

• For some NPCs, title assignment is organized according to uniform rules.

• The “Node Tax Information” button is no longer displayed when talking to some NPCs.
