Event Period
- December 22, 2021 (Wed) after maintenance - January 5, 2022 (Wed) before maintenance
Event Details
① During the event, the Mysterious Knight will appear in various monster zones throughout the Black Desert world.
▲ When the Mysterious Knight appears, you’ll see the system message “A Mysterious Knight appeared nearby!”
② Interact (R) with the Mysterious Knight to receive the “Wisdom of Battle” buff.
| Interaction | Obtainable Buff |
| Select [Skill] Wisdom of Battle (180 min) | Skill EXP +300% |
- The event buff has a duration of 180 minutes, and the Mysterious Knight will disappear 30 minutes after it first appears.
Learn More About the Event Buff
① Only the most recently obtained event buff will be active, and all other similar buffs will disappear. For example, if you have an active buff from interacting with the Lenio and you interact with the Mysterious Knight, then Lenio's buff will disappear and only the Mysterious Knight’s buff will remain active.
② As such, any past similar event buffs (Slippery Scallywags' Shanty, Ynix’s Flame, Sandstorm, etc.) that are active will disappear if you receive this event’s buff by interacting with the Mysterious Knight.
③ If you receive the exact same event buff while it is already active, the buff’s duration will be refreshed. (E.g., If you re-acquire the same buff with 50 minutes remaining, then the duration time will be refreshed to 180 minutes.)
* The details mentioned above also apply to all similar event buffs. (Mysterious Knight, Ynix’s Flame, Sandstorm, Ancient Kyve, Slippery Scallywags' Shanty)
