Map - Serendia | The basics Black Desert Online Guide

The map in Black Desert is very vast and it has been divided into several regions. The above map presents Serendia. It is here that you start your adventure and learn the basics on moving around the map or hunting grounds. The above map presents the way to perform your first steps in this sprawling world. It has been marked for hunting grounds, areas to make money in and quest areas. Quests in Black Desert have not been scaled to match your experience level. This means that after you complete one quest and receive another one, your experience level may be too low for you to complete it. The difference between your and the monsters' level is defined by the difficulty of combat. Therefore, if your level is too low, go to the area on the map, where you can gain some experience, and start hunting monsters you level up. The map has also been marked for important villages and cities that it is a good idea to go to.

Heidel City - Heidel is the main city of Serendia. Here, you find everything that you need, i.e. auction house, merchants of all sorts of armoring, cooks and trainers. In Heidel, there is a well-developed network of transportation nodes, which you can connect with roads, gates, plantations or villages. This will generate various bonuses for you, while you are trading in your goods. To learn more about trade, see the chapter devoted to that topic. The map has also been marked for areas where you find wild horses that you can capture at any moment. To learn more about this, see the chapter devoted to mounts.
