What Happens to Season Gear at Graduation?
You get to keep 1 full set of Tuvala gear and the rest is destroyed.
Tuvala Gear Conversion
In early graduation, you can use the Tuvala Conversion Stones you acquire to convert Season Tuvala gear into family-bound gear.
You get 13 Tuvala Conversion Stones, which equals a full set of gear. (1 for each armor piece, weapon, necklace, and belt, and 2 for each earring and ring)
Using Tuvala Conversion Stones will maintain crystals and creator Family name for PEN (V) items.
If you haven’t graduated yourself, and Season Server ends, the game will automatically convert all your Tuvala for you. In this case the game will automatically convert 1 full set of Tuvala, choosing the gear that it thinks is the best. (highest enhancement level)
All other unconverted duplicate Tuvala is deleted upon Season Server end.
All Tuvala enhancement materials are destroyed so make sure you sell or use all “Tuvala Ore”, “Time-filled Black Stone”, and “Refined Magical Black Stone”.
After Season Graduation
After you graduate from Season, you can take part in 3 important things that will help you to become even stronger.
- Guaranteed PEN Gear from Jetina
- Guaranteed PEN Accessory from Jetina
- Progression Pass
Guaranteed PEN Gear
After Season Graduation, you can exchange your converted PEN Tuvala to eventually obtain a full set of PEN Gear.
They start at Reform Level 1 and are upgraded 5 times with special reform stones you craft.

Guaranteed PEN Accessory
Continue doing the daily quests from Jetina that help you to craft your own PEN Accessory.

Progression Pass
Progression Pass helps walk you through many of the basics of BDO combat and Life Skills.
You get rewarded for each small goal and there are some very nice rewards for completing categories.

Can you bring up a new player to the season level in the Autumn Season like we could in the Summer Season?
Hello 🙂 I’m not sure I understand the question. Are you talking about Fuhgar’s Timepiece? Link to the guide: https://grumpygreen.cricket/fughars-timepiece/
Or Simplified Main Quest? Link to the guide: https://grumpygreen.cricket/simplified-main-quest/
If those guides, don’t help, let me know! Have fun. 🙂 By the way, this Season is ending Dec. 1. A new one will start shortly after that.
when can we early graduate toon lv 61 with completed season pass? Fughar or Leyla have no options to start the quest.
Hello there 🙂 Early graduation has not been announced yet. It will probably not be until another month. Sorry!
thank you. that explains why I can’t find it. Meantime I used Fughar timepiece and got new season char lvl 61. It kept my season pass progress so I just got extra high level char for free 🙂 I thought I should mention it here for others if people already completed season pass and if they have free character slot they can create brand new toon and turn it into powerful toon with few clicks.
Fughar’s Timepiece is awesome! 🙂 Just in time for that class reboot. Time to learn another class. Ha!
yep. btw this maintenance brings early graduation 🙂 finally 🙂
Woots! 😀
Is early graduation not available yet? I’m not getting any options with Leyla. Console Player
Hello there 🙂 Early graduation is possible atm for PC. I’m not sure about Console. Make sure you have all the requirements met. There are quite a few details to do before they will allow you to graduate early. The newest one they added was the Leveling Aid Box can’t be in your inventory.
Yeah there’s an update on the 22nd will probably start then, cause I did 100% seasonal stuff full pen finished the pass and opened all the chests and that was before I posted my question.
Used the time piece because I stopped liking the DK.
I slacked of on my Lahn’s seasonal failing to full pen but still life skilled her to full Artisan, so I time pieced to a proxy Lahn and plan to give all the gear to my first after graduation.
Sounds like you made great progress on Season! Congrats on that. 🙂 Now if only you could graduate!
I can’t graduate my second season character after using the Timepiece on my first one. Is that normal? I’ve completed the season pass and I don’t have those leveling aids in inventory
Hello 🙂 Watch for an official news release that lets us know when early graduation is available. (Usually takes about a month after start date.)
Grumpy, just wanted to say hey and THANKS for all of the great guides you put out. Just came back to BDO after 5 yrs and the guides have been a tremendous help!!
So far this Season: Full Pen Tuvala, Tet Black Star MH, Tri Black Star Aw Wpn, will Tet Jetina Tungrad Earring in 2 days, Mostly done with Ornette’s Infinity Healing Pot. All of this thanks to your guides.
Hello and welcome back! Thanks so much for the encouragement! 🙂
