Using an Xbox controller to play Black Desert Online (BDO) on PC or Xbox can enhance the gameplay experience, especially for more relaxed or action-oriented playstyles. Heres a guide to setting it up and optimizing controls: Using an Xbox Controller on PC BDO natively supports controllers on PC, including the Xbox One/Series XS controller. Heres how to set it up: Setup Steps: Connect Your Controller - Wired: Plug the controller into a USB port. - Wireless: Use Bluetooth or the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows. Enable Controller Mode in BDO - Launch BDO and go to Settings (Esc) Game Settings Controller. - Toggle "Enable Controller" to On. - The game will switch to controller UI automatically. Adjust Controller Settings - Navigate to Settings Controls to customize button mappings. - Fine-tune sensitivity, vibration, and camera controls. Recommended Settings: Camera Sensitivity: Increase slightly for smoother movement. Vibration: Disable if you prefer no rumble. Quick Slots: Assign frequently used items/skills to shortcuts. Important Notes: UI Navigation: Some menus (e.g., storage, marketplace) are easier with a mouse. Skill Combos: Certain complex combos may require manual input adjustments. Controller vs. Keyboard: PvP and high-end PvE may still favor keyboard/mouse for precision. Playing on Xbox Console If you're playing Black Desert Online on Xbox Series XS or Xbox One, the controller is fully optimized: Default Controls (Xbox): Button Function A Jump / Confirm B Dodge / Cancel X Basic Attack / Interact Y Strong Attack / Special Action LB Block / Skill Modifier RB Sprint / Skill Modifier LT Aim (Archer/Striker) / Skill RT Attack / Skill Left Stick Move Right Stick Camera / Lock-On (Click) D-Pad Quick Slots / Emotes View () Map Menu () Inventory / Menu Optimization Tips: Adjust camera sensitivity in Settings Controls. Enable "Toggle Sprint" if holding RB is uncomfortable. Use Skill Presets for easier skill activation. Troubleshooting Controller Not Detected? - Ensure its connected before launching BDO. - Update Xbox controller drivers via Device Manager (Windows). - Try a different USB port or re-pair via Bluetooth. Input Lag? - Disable VSync or lower graphics settings if playing on PC. - Use a wired connection for minimal latency. Button Mapping Issues? - Reset to default in BDO settings or use third-party tools like reWASD for advanced customization. Final Thoughts BDO works well with an Xbox controller for casual grinding, life skills, and exploration. However, for competitive PvP or complex combos, keyboard/mouse may still be preferable. Would you like help with specific class controller setups? (e.g., Succession vs. Awakening, Archer, etc.)

Great raids, some bugs

The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
