The recent update to Black Desert Mobile has introduced a new tower-defense game mode called Path of Glory and a fan favorite PVE mode as well.

The update came out today (August 4) and with it came a lot of new content. Most noteworthy is the tower-defense mode Path of Glory. In this mode, players are challenged with defending a castle using two to six characters from the Family. This gives players an incentive to create a roster of diverse and skilled characters to create useful strategies.

According to the developer’s Patch Note, players can enter the game mode once a day and the difficulty will be based on the combined CP of the characters participating. Players who succeed in fighting off the waves of enemies will receive an Emblem item that provides combat and defense bonuses to all characters in a Family, regardless of whether they participated.

Also introduced in this update is the classic Field Of Valor mode. In this PVE challenge, players will race against the clock to defeat a variety of enemies in 30 minute sessions. Victory will reward the player with things like Ancient Gold Coins, Black Stones, and Silver.

At this time only two zones are available in the game mode, Field of Valor and Highlands. To access these areas players will need to have enough Tokens of Valor, which can be obtained through the Event Tab on a daily basis.

While the Path of Glory mode is a permanent edition to the game, the Field of Valor is a limited two-week event. Players will lose any remaining Tokens of Valor so it’s important to use them while the event is running.

In addition to these major pieces of content the developers have added little things for convenience or grinding purposes, including new Gear Resonance for gear with enhancement levels between 3 and 7.

There’s also a new Bonus Effect for characters with a base CP of six thousand or higher that gives +50 to Attack and Defense. There’s an Auto-Enhance feature and a Combined Creation System, both of which are minor updates that streamline the Enhancing and Crafting features respectively.

It looks to be an exciting two weeks as players dive into the temporary Field of Valor event and the new Path of Glory mode.
