Valkyrie | Character classes Black Desert Online Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Class description

Valkyrie is a class that resembles the Warrior. Like the Warrior, she has a sword and a shield. Therefore, this is a typical tank class with high level of attack, defense and health. Like Warrior and Berserker, Valkyrie has very low mobility, which makes her an easy target. Unlike Warrior, Valkyrie has several healing and support skills.

Armoring

Just like the Warrior, Valkyrie uses the longsword and the shield. While leveling up and completing quests, you will be receiving reasonable amounts of useful armory that you can use for hunting monsters. With time, however, it would be a good idea to consider a change of weapons to Yuria Longsword that you can obtain at a relatively low cost. The more important, and more costly, option is Liverto Longsword. Unfortunately, its price is too steep for you to afford it with a character at a low level. Vangertz Shield, on the other hand, is a good shield with a high bonus to defense and accuracy.

As your armor, you can pick either Agerian or Taritas, both of which are common. Taritas is more expensive, but it provides you with more health points and accuracy. Agerian, on the other hand, is common and affordable, and you can keep using it until you find something more suitable.

As for jewelry, the choice is simple here. Invest in Bares set, thanks to which you max out on damage dealt.
