  • Sky Balloon has been added.
    • The Encarotia Family, Gavinya Great Crater Dwarf Artisans, and Old Moon Guild have created the Old Moon Sky Balloon, which travels through Calpheon, Altinova, and Valencia.
    • You can use the Old Moon Sky Balloon by purchasing a ticket from the following NPC's at their stations.
      • Calpheon: Kalix
      • Altinova: Lisam
      • Valencia: Mason
    • You can purchase the ticket with the Black Stone (Weapon) or Black Stone (Armor). The sky balloon will arrive once you hand over your ticket to Dwarf, who is in charge of handling the sky balloon.
    • Up to two adventurers can board the sky balloon.
    • Once a sky balloon has been summoned, you cannot interact with Dwarf, because he will be busy in preparation for the next sky balloon.
    • Though you can get off from the sky balloon immediately after you board it, you cannot get off once it departs.
    • If you go back out to Character Selection screen and come back into the character en route in a Sky Balloon ride, the character would fall down to the ground. There is no Death Penalty for dying from this fall but we recommend you to sit tight on your Sky Balloon ride.
    • Once the sky balloon arrives at its destination, you will automatically get off, and the sky balloon will disappear.
    • The routes Sky Balloon can travel are as follows:
      • Calpheon < - > Altinova
      • Altinova < - > Valencia
  • Added a new "Pioneers of the Sky" knowledge category.
[Developer’s Comment] The Old Moon Sky Balloon has been created to help new adventurers who had a difficult time exploring the vast world of Black Desert. You can now move from city to city more conveniently by hopping onto the Old Moon Sky Balloon. Try taking a flight from Calpheon to Mediah, and get a view of the lands from high above. How about you take a special journey today with a friend on board the sky balloon? [System]
