Black Desert Online reveals new Awakening for Dark Knight class

Pearl Abyss and Kakao Games have announced that Black Desert Online's Dark Knight class will be getting its Awakening next week after the game undergoes its routine weekly maintenance. The Dark Knight class launched into the game last month and now accounts for over 20% of Black Desert Online's total logins.

The Dark Knight's Awakening weapon is called Vediant and is a set of swords that is magically summoned in while granting the player life-draining abilities as well as powerful ranged offensive attacks. Vediant, allows players to blink around groups of enemies while dealing out powerful Area of Effect attacks. If you're really good, you can replenish mana or health and deal bonus damage by carefully chaining attacks and skills.

The Dark Knight's Awakening unlocks at level 56.

There will also be an exclusive Black Desert Online livestream that will serve as a reveal for some brand new content coming to the game. The stream will take place on Friday, April 7th at 8 p.m. Pacific / 11 p.m. Eastern and you can check it out here. There will also be a PVP tournament and a Q&A with Pearl Abyss.
