Black Desert Online KR had a lot of big changes after yesterday’s regular maintenance, and one of them is the Cron Stone Energy Enchantment system. The Cron Stone Energy is a system where you can accumulate a special energy called Cron Stone Energy in your gear. The energy is accumulated when an Enhancement fails and Cron Stones are used, and the energy can be used to add additional effects to your gear. The Cron Stone Energy Enchantment system will allow you to add Cron Stone Energy to your gear without enhancing them. You can add additional effects to your gear using Cron Stone Energy even when your gear is at maximum enhancement level (V).

If you want to add Cron Stone Energy to your gear, summon the Black Spirit and open the Enhancement menu. Select the gear you’d like to give Cron Stone Energy to, and check the box that says “Add Cron Stone Energy.” Cron Stones will be used in the enhancement process instead of Black Stones if you check the box. If you have enough Cron Stones, you can add Cron Stone Energy to your gear when you click the Enhancement button.

Luckily, the number of Cron Stones needed in adding Cron Stone Energy is smaller than the number of Cron Stones needed in protecting a gear from an Enhancement level drop. The total price of the Cron Stones you need to add Cron Stone Energy equals 20% of the price capacity of the gear you are trying to add Cron Stone Energy to.

For example, if you are trying to add Cron Stone Energy to a weapon with the price capacity of 1.35 billion silver, you will need 270 Cron Stones. You will get 1 to 3 Cron Stone Energy points every time you try adding Cron Stone Energy to your gear, while you get only 1 point by protecting your gear’s Enhancement level with Cron Stones.

There are a total of 4 levels in the additional item effects added to an item via the Cron Stone Energy Enchantment system. For TRI items, Cron Stone Energy Effects will be added when you have Energy Points 2, 5, 9, and 15. For TET items, the points required to activate additional effects are 3, 8, 16, and 30. For PEN items, they are 5, 13, 27, and 50.
