Baldur’s Gate 3 has been in early access for almost two years. The developers are constantly developing the game and presenting the results of their work to gamers. In turn, they can test new characters, races and mechanics on an ongoing basis.
In one respect, however, the gameplay is very limited. The RPG in Early Access has a level cap. You can’t level up your character more than what the developers have specified.
And what level is it exactly? Has the latest Patch 8 changed anything in this regard? Find out in the following text.
Baldur’s Gate 3 — maximum level in early access
Developers from Larian Studios made the game available to gamers with a number of limitations. This is nothing surprising, since the game is in early access. These limits also apply to the level of our hero.
Since the game’s debut, the highest level was four. Recently, however, the game has received a huge Patch 8, which introduced a whole bunch of new features and changes (including a new character class, you can read more about here) to Baldur’s Gate 3. Unfortunately, they do not apply to the aforementioned level cap.
When starting BG3, you will still only be able to reach the maximum level, which is four. Many gamers speculate that this will not change until the full release of the game.
The fifth level in Dungeons & Dragons 5E rules used by the developers is associated with a radical increase in the power of the skills of individual character classes.
These, in turn, may not be suitable for the parts of the game prepared by the developers.
However,only the developers know their true intentions. So, perhaps, in time, we will get the opportunity to advance our heroes to the fifth level before the game’s release.
Baldur’s Gate 3 — maximum level in final version
What maximum level can we expect once the game is released? The developers, unfortunately, did not openly reveal this secret, but they gave us a hint.
Sven Vincke, the creative director of Larian Studios, revealed during one of the Panel of Hell presentations that the maximum level will be higher than 10, but lower than 20. The developers had originally planned to introduce a level cap of 10, but testing led the developers to the conclusion that it should be increased.
Interestingly, it may seem like this conflicts with the rules of Dungeons & Dragons 5E. According to them, the maximum level of a character is 20.
However, the skills associated with the highest levels are probably too powerfulto translate them into a video game. This would simply spoil the gameplay experience.
Currently, therefore, players speculate that the level cap in the final version of Baldur’s Gate 3 may be around level 13.

The donkey is a basic mount. Although rather slow, the donkey is your first introduction to the training life skill and will help you level to Beginner: 5 so you can unlock the capture rope to tame your first horse. If you buy a horse from the Marketplace you can of course ride a horse from the start.
Don’t underestimate donkeys though: they can be trained the same as other mounts to level and then become faster and can carry more weight.
The maximum level is level 15. Additionally donkeys are very useful for commerce and trading to move heavy Trade Packs until you own a vehicle.
The Shai is the only class able to use any advanced skills that the Donkey may learn.
Obtaining a Donkey
Upon reaching level 10 there is a quest (Big Fish in a Small Pond) from the Black Spirit. Talk to the town chief in Velia. He will give you a donkey (you can choose one of three different colors: grey, black or brown). After receiving your Donkey Token you must take it to a stable to register it (name it). NOTE: This special quest-granted Donkey is an ultra rare «super» version with a much larger weight capacity and item count than usual, and is nearly impossible to replace. Take care not to lose it!
You can always buy another donkey from Stable Keepers as long as they have a Shop option:
- Normal Donkey — standard donkey with 3 colors to choose from — 10k silvers
- Healthy Donkey — A Healthy Grey Donkey can carry more items than normal Donkeys.
— 30k silvers - Strong Black Donkey — A Strong Black Donkey can carry more items than Healthy Donkeys. — 50k silvers
Donkey statistics
| Donkey type | Inventory slots | Level | HP | Stamina | Weight | Stats |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Normal donkey | 5 | Level 1 | 1000 | 5001 | 225 | 101% |
| Level 15 | 4500 | 19001 | 239 | 115% | ||
| Healthy Gray Donkey | 6 | Level 1 | 1200 | 6001 | 270 | 101.3% |
| Level 15 | 5400 | 22801 | 284 | 119.5% | ||
| Strong Black Donkey | 8 | Level 1 | 1400 | 6501 | 360 | 101.5% |
| Level 15 | 6300 | 24701 | 374 | 122. 5%

Donkey vs. Horse vs. Vehicles
Max stats for a normal donkey.
Donkeys have at least 5 slots of inventory compared to the 2 slots of a horse. They can carry much heavier weights without slowing down. They are quite nimble in cluttered areas and they need no carrots at all while leveling up. Normal donkeys, if trained, can easily compete with tier 1 horses for weight, stamina and speed. And they can be faster than horse-pulled wagons — but the latter don’t need carrots and can carry more items.
Donkeys have their own unique versions of Mount Equipment, identified by having the text [Donkey] in front of their names. Unlike horse/camel equipent, Donkeys have access to several pieces of equipment that can increase their weight limit; only the Elephant has a similar item (certain armor types once they are upgraded). With all of the relevant weight limit items equipped and well upgraded, a well-trained Donkey can have a weight limit greater than several wagon types.
Last but not least donkeys train easily and are rather cheap so they present an option to level your training skill. They can not be used to pull carts or such, will not acquire any skills that non-Shai classes can use and they cannot be bred.

first player in Europe to reach level 67 after 837 days of grinding
26.07.2022 14:17
The MMORPG Black Desert has no level cap, but the experience curve increases with each new level.
German player Florian, aka RisingSun, reached level 67, becoming the first European to achieve this. However, the first person in the world to reach level 67 was an American. He managed to do this in March 2022.
How do users manage to achieve such results? Usually players use three methods:
- Grind in different locations (mostly solo grind in the Temple of Gunfiransia) using artifacts (introduced with the winter update) and buffs.
- Daily quests and PvP (the latter is not very popular).
- Training dummies for afk pumping.
As for our compatriots, earlier the father of five children was the first to reach level 66 in the Russian-speaking Black Desert and spoke about this in an interview in 2020. No further records were announced.

Character development in BDO: leveling up and skill points
Views: 16 967
The topic of today’s BDO guide is character leveling.
Consider the skill on dummies, on quests up to level 61 and, of course, the grind we all love: where to swing and how to buff.
Contents
Video
Input
character largely affects its effectiveness in combat. The higher the level, the
cooler skills you can activate by getting more damage multipliers. Also
leveling up increases the carrying capacity and the number of health points.
Ceteris paribus, in PVP, a character with a higher level has an advantage: he hits the enemy, and some of the multipliers do not work for him due to lack of accuracy. Of course, a lot depends on the class and gear, but I’m talking about spherical equal conditions in a vacuum. In PVE, it’s the same: mobs of the same level or lower with a sufficient amount of attack from you are not illusory, and if they are higher in level, then part of your hits and shots go into the void.
Leveling up to level 50 is not even a saying, but rather a prequel to this story: when going through the story, it can be upgraded in an evening, a maximum of two, especially on Olivia. I strongly recommend making a storyline in Calpheon up to the murder of Hexa Marie: this way you can get a companion, a fairy fairy, a falcon pet, a significant inventory expansion and a bunch of other useful goodies that will be very useful at the start. Also, this quest is necessary to participate in many events and to start completing Igor Bartali’s diary.
Note that in order to reach level 50, your character
must eat the stone that the Black Spirit will give him. Without this, the hero
will remain at level 49 and will not be able to swing further. But then the PVP mode for
it will be unavailable. Useful for some craft twins that
no time to fight for spots with grass.
Summarizing the above: in BDO, pumping to the required
level allows you to farm fatter mobs, earn more silver, buy
better equipment and thanks to increased damage, swing even faster.
Exactly
so: this is one of the endless spirals that this game has. Maximum
there is no level in Black Desert, so the gap at the end of the tunnel is not yet visible.
The lazy way: Mannequin stunts
which sells books for leveling and skills. Various in assortment
volumes, but in both cases, an hour of pumping AFK costs 1 million silver. Also
these books can be won in the Black Spirit Game or received as a gift during
some event.
Both books are stackable, meaning they can be used at the same time. You can activate volumes with one character, then switch to another and swing them, since the effect is immediately applied to the account. The counter works in real time, and not while the character is in the game, as is the case with some experience buffs, which will be discussed later.
Location of dummies:
- Velia: next to trainer Tahros;
- Heidel: next to coach Cruhorn Wormsbein;
- Calpheon: next to the auctioneer El Bellucci on the north gate of the city;
- Altinova: up and to the right of Meish the groom, in front of the gate;
- Valencia: to the right of the alchemist Yursin, if you come from the desert side;
- Grana: northern part of the city, behind the second bridge next to the tower;
- Duvencrune: To the right of the alchemist Seiri, in the northern part of the city.
Leveling on mannequins in BDO is available starting from level 50.
The character must not be in a group, and the basic and
additional weapon. The method can be used as an additional — superfluous
experience doesn’t hurt.
Special remark for those who find it difficult: go to Jamie Triker, buy a book for combat experience and skills from him, open inventory, right-click both books, go to a free dummy, press English R to interact, turn off the game and mind your own business.
Progressive: Quest leveling
This is the fastest leveling in Black Desert at the moment, but you will need to do some things first. I mean the quest to get Chenga, Sherekhan’s Book of Wisdom. The unspontaneous book that the Black Spirit gives to each character at the start is upgraded to an advanced version that increases combat experience gained from quests by 30%.
Story quests give little combat experience, but you can get a lot of it for additional quests.
Press English About, open the «Recommended» tab and search. You need quests that reward you with a strange glitter with the EXP+ tag.
Important! In this interface, some types of quests can be disabled, so NPCs will not issue them. For all tasks to be available, their icons in the «Types» tab (swords, fish, sickle and wheel) must be activated, that is, highlighted.
Many of these quests do not appear in this list and must be sought from NPCs. Such tasks are available in any capital of the region, simpler settlements, as well as simply in places where the NPCs have some kind of movement. The full list of quests for the Kamasylvia experience is here, and the Star’s End and Driegan experience quests are here.
You can distinguish such a quest by the characteristic golden solid thin frame above the NPC’s head. The thick gold frame is for story quests, those with highlighted corners are repeatable quests, and those with colored frames are crafting quests.
Quest leveling has one huge drawback.
You
you can quickly get up to 61, and with due diligence, even 62 is possible. However
the character will only earn combat experience, not skill experience. you will succeed
a harmless gimp, translated into Russian, a disabled person who can’t really do anything.
And to start playing with muscles, you need at least 1500 skill points. pumping
quests will not give you this. And if you were quickly rocked by good bati, with
this normal equipment is not there, then you still have to farm Nubian
spots.
Already at 62 for quests you get not experience, but cat’s tears:
it is too small to seriously consider this method of pumping seriously. That
the same goes for the dailies.
The next note for those who find it difficult: do not assume that if you are pumped to level 56, you will do the necessary quest and get the awakened weapon, it will become easier to play. In BDO, leveling up from 56 to 60 is just a preparation for a serious game. Personally, I prefer not to waste time on those who have paws: according to observations, after a week or two, such players are still poured from BDO.
Traditional way: Grinding mobs
genre, quarantine, alternative farming methods and other troubles, as well as
tons of freebies that make it easier for beginners to start, the essence of Black Desert remains
the same old Korean grindilka, which she was at the start.
It’s not good or bad, it’s just the genre. However, today it is no longer necessary to torment the poor monsters: there are a lot of ways to farm silver in a different way, and you can also upgrade on a dummy. But even though bartering has become more profitable than grinding (what a shame!), there are still many fans of swinging on mobs.
A common question that beginners ask: where to swing on 60
or any other level. Naturally, there are a lot of advisers who, in
their wildly useful guides give valuable advice: for example, at such and such a level
swing only there, and on the next one it’s a little not there. In short, they rub the game.
See on the world map how many mobs are asking for attacks on
every spot, and if it is not enough, it is better not to go there, as you will spend
time to no avail.
Also take into account the level of protection of the character, so that the mobs will
they did not kill to death, but only spoiled their health a little. Ideally, you need to swing
on mobs equal in level or lower, which are killed with 1-2 skills.
And another moment. On top spots (I mean profitability, not the level of mobs), for example, at Kakhaz or Anacreon in Valencia, on mushrooms and Mirumogs in Kamasylvia, a lot of people traditionally hung out. In the spring of 2020, when this guide was created, all progressive humanity is in self-isolation and goes crazy in every way. There is also some hype in Black Desert: there are more people playing than usual, and many players are too aggressive.
What I’m leading to. On such spots, dead mobs are often found, of which only a hundred someone has killed, and there is a high probability of having fun in PVP, and not really swinging. It is more rational to move to a less profitable spot: in the end, you will earn the same or even more, since there will be someone to beat and no one will interfere with you.
Boosts for Combat Experience
A list of utilities that speed up leveling in BDO. Here I will give only an increase in experience, since there is too much of everything.
- Olivia Canal. Eternal buff for an additional 100% experience. 3 Channels for beginners and returnees, for whom leveling in BDO is a little easier. After a month, you will be kicked out of there, so use this time as efficiently as possible.
- Golden bell. When activated, gives an additional 100% experience to all players on the channel. Sold in the shop, including for miles.
- A scroll called «530% Combat and Skill EXP». Sold in the game store — 53 pieces for 53 miles. 100 miles are given to you every day in achievements, Y button. These scrolls can only be bought once per account, so use them carefully.
- Mercenary experience. Also in achievements. Here I recommend taking a scroll for 200% experience for 1 hour, the second on the list. Issued daily. With the help of alchemy through the crafting menu, out of three such scrolls, one is obtained by 600%.
Its effect stacks with the previous one. - Bonus for high family rating. You can take a boost once a day from level 15 to 59. The amount of the boost depends on the rating, which, in turn, depends on the levels of all the characters on the account, their crafting skills, acquired knowledge and influence points. At the start, you will have +20% to experience.
- Regular dinner CZK. Gives 20% experience, as well as a bunch of other bonuses.
- Elixir of the Beast. The potion gives another 20% to combat experience and other bonuses. The effect stacks with food.
- Marni Stones. Sold by a fox named Elren Toshi. Available from level 57. Each type of stones is designed for different mobs and fills up when they are killed. You hand over the filled stone to this NPC and get additional experience. Starting from level 62, there is almost no effect. A list of all Toshi can be found in the NPC search, but you need to be familiar with at least one of them.
- Initiation level.
Guild buff that can be activated every 5 hours. Grants 20% combat and skill experience for one hour. - Awakened Crystal — Wanderer. Gives an additional 10% experience. Inserted into the character’s head. Here I mentioned this inlay stone, as the developers regularly give out such in calendars with gifts and other occasions. Can be used until you move to more serious stones.
- Premium set. Gives an additional 30% experience. Sold in the game store.
- Old Moon Scroll. Gives +100% combat experience. Available there.
- Pets. For some of them, as they level up, a passive can pierce, giving the owner + 5% to combat experience. Accordingly, 5 such pets is an increase in experience gained by a quarter.
In general, such an assortment is quite enough for a hell of a buff. I specifically didn’t mention all sorts of event bells and whistles in this list, for example, an Easter goose egg with a 300% bonus to experience or dark beer, which drives old school veterans away, because today they are, tomorrow they are gone, and they are spent very quickly.
