Fughar’s Log Patch Notes
Source: playblackdesert
New adventure log, “Fughar’s Times of Success”, has recently been published. Follow the trail of Fughar and how he became a successful Chief Manager in the Crow Merchant Guild with nothing but an apple in his hands.
– Upon completing the Mediah Main Questline, if you’re Lv. 57 or higher, you can accept the quest “Adventure Journal: From the Bottom to the Top” by talking to the Black Spirit.
– This adventure log consists of 3 volumes, with 5 chapters per volume for a total of 15 chapters altogether.
– You can use Fughar’s Secret Book, a secret text of the Crow Merchants Guild, to gain a large amount of Contribution EXP.
* If your maximum Contribution Points (CP) shared by your Family is 200 CP, once you complete all of Fughar’s Times of Success, you will be able to increase your Family-wide CP to 230 CP.
| Fughar’s Times of Success | Reward |
| Volume 1 Chapters 1-4 | 1 Fughar’s Secret Book per chapter |
| Volume 1 Chapter 5 | Weight Limit +2LT (Family-wide) |
| Volume 2 Chapters 1-4 | 1 Fughar’s Secret Book per chapter |
| Volume 2 Chapter 5 | Inventory +1 Slot (Family-wide) |
| Volume 3 Chapters 1-4 | 1 Fughar’s Secret Book per chapter |
| Volume 3 Chapter 5 | All DP +1 (Family-wide) |
‘Contribution Points (CP) are an absolute must to fully enjoy the various, deep content of Black Desert. However, to attain a decent amount of CP requires a large investment of time, and many novice adventurers may feel daunted by this prospect when playing Black Desert for the first time. To address this issue, we added “Fughar’s Times of Success” as the 12th adventure log. By following the footsteps of Fughar, who made a name for himself with his own two bare hands, you will find that you’ve accrued quite the Contribution EXP upon completing this log.
Chapter 3: Book 3 so hard!!!!! ARRRRRR
1 triolina i hate this game more pay for nothing
Book 3 is outdated. 2) hungry are under Iliya Island (kill one) 3) required Undying Crow’s Insignia 4) 1000G x 10 5) talk to Fughar
holy sht!! book 3 chapter 5 is difficult
I can’t find any betrayer’s tombstone in the said location. I tried different servers with different characters. Is this outdated?
Hello 🙂 It is currently disabled due to an exploit. Hopefully, will be fixed soon. More info here: https://www.naeu.playblackdesert.com/en-US/News/Detail?groupContentNo=1782&countryType=en-US
The gravestones are fixed I sent ticket to support today and I was told they fixed it last week I tried it and it works
Hello 🙂 Thanks for the update!
Hi, the caphras journal of glory works for the extra xp?
Hello 🙂 It’s an item that you use one time and get Contribution. “Caphras – Journal of Glory” is a separate item that you wear from a different Adventure Log. View details: Caphras Adventure Log.
Book 2, chapter 3: even if you already have more than the 700 amity required (I had 2164), the dialog option won’t show for you to complete the step when using a char that went through simplified seasonal quest. Go there with a char that actually did Mediah storyline…
Hello 🙂 Thanks for the info! That seems like a bug. I hope they fix it soon.
u need Interact with Neruda Shen first
went there with three characters that completed mediah’s storyline, still can’t do anything
Hello 🙂 You met all the other requirements? Level 57+ and talked to Black Spirit to pick up his quest?
What quest do I need to pick up for that?
Quest Requirements:
Mediah main quest line (O key, then Main tab)
Apocalyptic Prophecy, [Special Growth] Fughar’s Memorandum – Chapter 9, or [Co-op] Awakened Black Spirit
Black Spirit quest: Adventure Journal: From the Bottom to the Top (Quests > Suggestions)
Have fun! 🙂
I can’t get the design from Kanna. I completed her questline years ago, when I try to buy it now( I already have 400 amity) the game simply says “this item can’t be bought”
Hello 🙂 I’m not sure why it’s not working for you. Does Kana have any quests at all for you? They did change this quest line quite a while ago. You may have to redo it. If all else fails, try contacting support. Sorry!
hello, i accidentally used a char that did the simplified quest for book 2 chapter 3. I tried going back with a char that did the regular questline and nothing is showing up. I got the knowledge i needed but couldnt complete the page…
Hello 🙂 It looks like there is a bug involved with that. Sorry! Keep watch on the patch notes to see when it is fixed. Maybe support can help? I’m not sure.
I sent an inquiries at the official website and they said I just needed to increase my amity even if its past 700. Thanks though!
Thanks for letting us know! How high did you have to go?
