He WASTED OVER $1400 P2W'ing His Blackstar Fresh Out of Seasonal 

By now im convinced that when he says it, he goes to ask his wife if he can spend more

I mean, thats what everyone does right lol? Work and make money to spend on the things they enjoy? Be it a nice steak dinner at a restaurant, booze, movies, golf or BDO.

@@Mralonovadia22 I am a traditional hispanic man whose original country of birth is Cuba. I don't need to ask for permission.

@@erkulez Wife > BDO, 99% of the player base would be jealous of you. Even if that's asking about spending money. At least it's someone who cares more then PA.

@@malec8517 I didn't really underatand the comment fully. But I don't think anyone should ever be jealous of me or anyone else. We all have our own light inside us and are special in our own way. I think everyone is special and everyones life and loved ones are special. If that was a question about chosing my wife over BDO, then obviously my wife and our happiness will always come first. But my wife is really chill. That is why we work well for each other. She isn't bothered by me gaming or doing any of the things I do. She is just a more private and introverted person and does not enjoy the limelight. She prefers a quiet life. Introverts and extroverts often find each other. Kind of like how they say opposites attract.

I am glad that my sacrifice was not in vain my man lol.

that's weak sauce number, the problem is the real life money investment on one item

Pin his comment, for the sake of other people heart ❤️‍🩹💔

@@Jannerius thats a really cool whale emoji you got there.

@@redspark5455 it is a really good comment. Word play on the old credit card comercial, for everything else, theres mastercard lol.

I have to agree with you on this one lol.

We should put a disclamer

I have to agree. This tends to be a trend with my line of content.

@@azuredragonHOMM I think that would be a good route. Trigger warning my videos lol.

Opinions may vary, but I seem to be doing well in life. It might just be my game judgement.

@@erkulez just going to honest with you, you do a stream with blue and talk about getting an audience and wanting to stream BDO, but instead of just doing things the respectable way in which ppl of the BDO community will appreciate, your just throwing a debit card at the game and not actually trying to learn the game or anything, and what are you even going to do with a PEN BS, you dont have gear, you dont actually play the game and you cant PVP, maybe Im just lost at what it is your trying to accomplish instead of getting in front of a camera and at least proving to ppl BDO is really not as pay to win as some believe. I could understand if youve put the time in and are a Pen BS away from finishing your gear but your trying to get it before you even have anything

@@ShinobiXXXBDO I played for that little bit and havent been able to play in 2 weeks because I am a full time student, I take 4 university classes per semester. I am building up an over 2ksqft shop with custom muraling on all of the walls. I have been painting like 10-16 hours a day for weeks now. I have a wife and two kids that need my attention and time. I have to redo my website, run a massive inventory on all my shops merch and prep it all for taxes to the IRS. I have real estate property to manage. Just had to do all the landscaping on a home, paint a two story house over 2,200 ftsq and fix things all over. Leases, finding rentals. The list of what I manage on a day to day basis would cripple most human beings. So what I am trying to do, is get on a game a blow off steam. Have a little fun. Forget that I have what feels like the burden of Atlas carrying the world on my shoulders. Whenever anyone in my entire family has a problem, guess who they come to...parents, siblings, cousins, you name it. It is always I who answer the call and take on the burdens of others. So im just havin a little fun man.

lmfao 10000000000000%

@@ShinobiXXXBDO I mean, technically he did prove it's not as P2W as they make it seem. Price would be way steeper than I would've imagined kekw.

I like putting my own pants on in the morning and leveling my own characters lol.

Thanks for this one homie. The diamond in the rough, its a pain sorting through all the people who have no idea's comments. But this one makes it worth it. Thank you.

@erkulez Just worry about what makes you happy and play the way you want! I went to your Twitch and saw your Mural you are working on, cool stuff man.

The man, the myth, the Cron Guy lol

I have a few houses so it wouldn't be the end of the world if I gambled one away. I mean what if I win?

I think he said he makes more than enough to comfortably spend some of it on video games.

Nah, I know this type of person. Most likely on disability, and spending his government chqs on crons.

I dumb amount lol. This is just one of my chaotic hobbies.

@@cryptidian3530 Yep, too many hobbies though. It gets dangerous at times lol.

I have brought this up in my videos and the BDO community is oblivious to it. I however, am very well aware of BDO's content ceiling as it at times falls below games like even OSRS 2007 in the watch charts. But I do it because I enjoy playing the game this way. Its my version of fun.

@@erkulez That's all good and fair. Far be it from one man to tell another man how to spend his money. You seem like a cool and funny guy, and I hope you're having a blast in the game. But from all I've seen you want to be a CC on yt and twitch not just have fun playing BDO or you wouldn't be spending money to hype and try at a chance to upgrade an item you don't need to upgrade or known what upgrading it does for your current situation. TLDR^ But in this video you tried to pen a BlackStar weapon without "knowing why" just cause it was a low chance gamble and something to get hyped over. That second part I'm having to infer on and use pasted evidence to support it. Most CCs on YT or Twitch, are doing enchant gambling as a way to drum up interaction with their fans cause it can be hype. But most other BDO CCs know what the upgrade they are going for does or are at least not spending their IRL $ to try for it they grind for it and play the game then do a stream spending those resources. In your first video with Blue you mentioned something about spending the money and telling your wife "I can really have something here" while you seem like a really likeable guy. Unless you're literally pulling 7+ figures yearly. You don't IMO at least, want to start making a habit especially early on in your CC BDO career of being the "Spends a lot of money for RNG" guys. As it's very much going to paint you as the spend money guy and that's it. From what I see most of those guys don't have a lot of viewers and only get views during the hype enchant. The reason I compared it to stuff like CSGO. Is a game like CSGO has so many eyes on it that doing a "stunt" like spending a grand or so something 95%+ of the whole world player base CAN'T or WON'T do. Will draw eyes and get a large amount of people to see you giving you a chance to hook a small amount of them. Those cases are thousands of viewers at times. If you can even hook 100 or so of them you've got a full fanbase and grow normally from there. But BDO is much much smaller. I wish you nothing but the best but deeply caution what you're doing. No lie BDO can cause people to spend money in an unhealthy way, so much so that PA has in the past refunded people mass amounts of money because they went on a spending spree.

@@malec8517 I don't think I am very well understood in this community and those that watch my live streams like last nights understand it better because I frequently address it. I am having fun playing the game and enjoy my chat community. I ask what I need to do, they suggest a thing, sometimes a dumb thing. I do a thing. Its entertaining for everyone. Me, chat and the RU-vid audience. Its a win win for me. I also have limited knowledge of this extremely vast game and no time to sit here and watch RU-vid videos or grind. My discord private messages are filled with people trying to "pilot" my account. I have no interest in that, I just want to enjoy my journey. I know that endgame = specific gear. So I try for specific gear, one piece at a time. So ill tap this blackstar until I have a BIS weapon, then ill go fallen god armor and upgrade that slowly and have another piece etc...until I slowly have all the gear I need to do endgame content or whatever. Its pretty simple for me. I don't stress too much on anything. Everyone that consumes my content tries to find a reason or understanding to my actions or believes they know my motives. I wake up with new ideas everyday and change my dirrection constantly with my bussinesses, my brand and everything I do. Its best not to take anything I do too serious and just enjoy it at face value without trying to figure it out. It will drive people mad and im just hanging out casually enjoying life while others stress about something that is trivial to me.

He actually does stream & not spend as well, I actually subscribed and find him very entertaining to watch while I grind. This episode I am pretty sure some others egged him on to enchant that BS though. He was not alone on voice in that stream. He is still learning the ins & outs of the game & needs some good guidance.

@@malec8517 he honestly has gotten a nice little following already, he is actually entertaining, he just needs some help that doesn’t steer him wrong in the game as there where 2 others in the stream that lead him down that path. He is still kinda learning the game.

Pretty much exactly how it happened lol. Hi Danielleeeeee!

Gonna run them tables lol.

Yeah I never get any love from any of the games I play RNG system. Born to lose.

@@erkulez feels bad man. keep up the grind. ALSO just incase you are currently feeling a little cronie, don't sell the outfits just yet the Premium outfits are getting a price increase on the market to 2.2b sometime in the next week or 2 max.

@@yourfavoritelawnguy2722 ohhhh this is great news. I will keep that in mind and hold off lol.

@@erkulez if you keep having bad luck it might be cheaper to sell the outfits towards buying the rest of your BS honestly. This one’s half way to guarantee though so I would take some time and stack up crons to finish it off. U will likely hit before 40 taps probably around 27/28 taps. I personally went the Godr route so I could gradually increase my AP and not just be stuck at Tett BS .

Thank you! I have often said that the purpose I server in BDO is to show other players exactly what not to do lol.

This is a very good way to put it lol. I just can't have money in my pockets, it gets itchy.

@@erkulez yea, I get it.

Nope, that's for Tuvala only and you get just a couple of those per season. iirc 1 for armors / weaps and 1 for accs.

​@@dzudemlow thanks for clarifying.

@@ValidatedPerson No probs man, you can also do the jetina quests for your guaranteed pen crescent rings (2 mistakes and 1 right choice which is both of the rings) and pen boss armors / weapons, however they're not free and it's not worth to do more than 1 or 2 pieces of them nowadays. So just buy the other pieces.

I kinda extracted them lol

I think that is the plan 100%

I did not know this was a thing lol. Indeed, this could be useful lol.

Maybe next time coach lol. This time however, I took a hard L lol

I just go off whatever those in chat go with. After a long debate they suggested this because the "stats" were better.

@@erkulez Havent you learned already chat is not the way to go Blue has plenty of guides for gearing and theres plenty of info out there but i guess you play your own way and probably will have more fun thinking about all the mistakes you made in the past :D

@@Klaidas21 I mean MH BS isn’t an awful choice at all though, many do go MH 1st because the stats carry over and it’s giving a crap ton of accuracy the Awk doesn’t give. He get 30% of the AP sheet yes but the Monster damage & everything else is carrying over to Awk and he is getting the 200 accuracy that Awk isn’t giving, Awk should definitely be his next weapon the last the sub weapon.

I agree, but the funny thing is I always end up here as a result of taking my chats advice...

Also a fact LOLOLOL

Brother, all of my children's future education is paid for regardless of how many children I choose to have. A reward for the contribution of service to my country.

American defence force pays for all of your kids education?? Never knew the ADF was so accommodating....

@@chrisg6782 yeah man, there are programs within the branches of the U.S. military complex that cover all kinds of things. People need only educate themselves and take advantage of what is available to them.

This is actually really slow for me lol. Its the only way to somewhat progress. I have no time to play. Took me over a month to graduate seasonal and some people say they do it in a day lolol.

@@erkulez If you can play 2 - 3 hours a day, and 5 - 8 hours on the weekend, it shouldn’t be difficult. For seasonal characters, doing the Mountain of Eternal Winter route should take you to 50 in 3 hours, and then doing the media quest to 56, awakening/succ questlines, then you go to Polly Forrest to grind from 56 to 60. All of that shouldn’t take more than 6 - 8 hours to finish. Which is enough to graduate a seasonal char.

@@erkulez might be better to sell the fits and buy what u can over enchant honestly. Though it doesn’t take long even as a casual over time it happens, the fun is in the journey here it’s long term progression so don’t worry about being in the top 1%. If you can do 3-6 hours a week your can progress. That’s all I do and over a few months my GS gradually increased to what it is now.

Can't fix stupid :x

It wasn't suggested in chat lol

@@dzudemlow I guess if you see it that way lol.

@@erkulez Not meant to insult you for who you are cos you seem like a nice and chill guy. I guess most of us are just baffled by the amount of money you apparently are able to throw around while we were grinding and playing the game for years to reach 760+ gs. And the fact that you seem so disconnected from it, always stating you don't know what you're actually doing while casually throwing a couple thousand bucks at PA 😅. In the end that's good for you man, just be careful bro. Money comes and money goes. And FOR THE LOVE OF GOD Erkulez my dude please learn your class and the game! 😂 Trust me, it's a little barrier at the beginning until you actually get a grasp of shit but I'm 100% certain you're gonna enjoy grinding for those moments where you feel cronny lol. Difference is you're just gonna be throwing hard earned ingame currency at it and it can feel accomplishing.

Gobbledeegoup lol PA is eatin good too.

They love to beat my RNG drums into the ground.

No quitters here lol. Were gonna make it on our own!

Yeah im playing BDO in hard mode for sure lol.

I agree on the casino simulator part for sure.

I just run the daily pit & get free crons and use the coupons & events etc.. plus I try to buy what I can over enchant. I buy accessories 100% my RNG is horrible as well , I’m not blowing up billions 😓. If I enchant anything it’s gear only, I might pop an acc to Tri that’s easy enough to sell for some extra silver but I don’t even attempt to pen outside Tuvula after my horrible experience. I’ll leave it to the blessed 😂

LOLOL this is how I felt right after this session lol

Average dev experience.

Well thats not nice lol. But hey, I will eventually bud bud.

You would be right. I have dropped a clean like $4,000 on a mobile game within a few weeks lol.

@@erkulez aye man im not hating on you btw. obviously you got it like that? thats fine imo. i do think you need someone to help you spend efficiently but either way you can play how youd like! ijust knew tho cause i used to play gacha games and ive done the same type of stuff. bdo it just doesnt work super well lol

Ohhh suddenly everyone tried to stop me huh lololol

@@erkulez got a mental breakdown because of you. I tryed to help you in the start so you at least didn’t do mistakes because there was no stopping you but once the people on the party told you to use more money…. I gave up

@@xxsoftraxx it be like that sometimes. Don't stress over me though. Life is short lol.

@@erkulez just remember to put it in the tax report as we talked about in the stream… Only think I can say at this point

Glad I ain't the only one whose made mistakes big dawg. But we recover sooner or later.

Hands down lol. Everyone kept telling me to get that weapon because it has better stats though. Victim of my circumstances lol

You gotta get that checked out bud. Thats prolly not good lol

Gooberin my way through life, one cash earning business deal at a time.

There is the possibility. But I have been known to be an unreasonable individual.

Nah I don't even play that much lol. This is an offtime slow hobby of mine.

Just looking out. If it doesn't bother you then iz cool. rng blessings to you 👌

Agreed. PA needs to add a bat signal feature that notifies Blue when I open the Pearl Shop lol. But hey, no one likes losing money, but me apparently so they won't do it lol.

Don't you give me good ideas now lol

@@erkulez not effecient but atleast you can build a high failstack

Brother, what floored me was one of the people giving me advice, after all had happened later saying they had been playing for about a month lololol FLOOORED ME!

I don't ever fully know whats happening when I play honestly lol.

@@erkulez work towards Fallen god armors not Blackstar Armor, The regular boss gear can be converted into Dead God armors it’s way cheaper then Blackstar armors would be. You can also just buy the Fallen god if you don’t want to enchant off the Central Market same with the other 2 Blackstar weapons your gonna wanna get.

You misspelled Erkulez there my mans lol.

Thats big facts lololol PA needa sponsor me.

Wait till I keep tapping to finally hit it lol. This ain't gonna end well lol.

? 230+

I have heard this since trying, but I had no idea at the time.

I would semi-agree with this statement lol

But ill get it anyways =)

100 hours? that are rooky numbers as soon as you discover (afk-)Lifeskills

If they made this rule they would have never gotten all of my money lol

I would argue that people like me have kept the game alive, updated and staff paid. Anytime this isn't present, games die. Enjoy the game and be greatful that some of us donate to the cause.

Always pay to lose lol Its what I do.

Built different lol

Bro let's be fair. You probably have no life outside the game either. No offense.

@@evaggelospasiakos1521 Sounds like a skill issue on your end. If you can't get to 720+ in a couple of YEARS then why are you even playing the damn game? You can reach just that by playing a couple hours per WEEK. lol

I'm proud of you.

@@evaggelospasiakos1521 stop commin at my mans. Everyone is free to their own experience my dude.

@@dzudemlow just tellm, sucks to suck lol. I would go easy, but hes been taking shots not just at me but everyone else. Salty people will be salty.

Look at least you didn't blow this much just about instantly lol. There is a saving grace in all things.

@@erkulez before i semi rage quit i blowed up 80b into trying to make pen ogre. I buyed 7x tet ogre at 11b each, 250 fs all failed, one taped my pen sol on a raw 63fs. This game is something lol

I grind IRL and P2Lose ingame lol

Bro a couple years is a long time lol. In that time ill buy and sell a house and drop like 300k USD on PA if they play with me lol.

@@erkulez lol i know it was sarcastic, if you don’t spend at all honesly it takes a long long time to normally to hit something like pen blackstar. other stuff was made alot better but hitting the big stuff debos blackstar ect. takes forever
