Black Desert’s Shakatu’s Month Adds Login Rewards, Trade Tokens, and a Cron Stone Vote

Black Desert’s Shakatu’s Month event is underway on PC, running from November 5 after maintenance until December 3 before maintenance. The event centers on daily login rewards, a trade token shop, and a one-time “deal” choice that could hand every player extra Cron Stones.

The login portion runs November 6 through December 2 and includes rewards like Shakatu’s Gleaming Chest, up to 2,000 Cron Stones, and a Choose Your Rare Hammer Box. Players who complete all 14 login days can earn additional Shakatu’s Gleaming Chests.

Players can also earn Shakatu Merchants Trade Tokens through combat, gathering, and fishing, then exchange them for event items. Pearl Abyss says there are 31 exchange options, with highlights including an Advice of Valks (+300) Box, Choose Your Rare Hammer Box, Transcended Premium Enhancement Box, and Shakatu’s Gleaming Chest.

The more unusual part is Shakatu’s Trade Secret, available once per Family from November 5 after maintenance until November 12 before maintenance. Players can visit Shakatu in Velia and pick either Shakatu’s Honest Deal Chest, which guarantees 1,000 Cron Stones, or Shakatu’s Daring Deal Chest, which gives between 100 and 5,000 Cron Stones.

If the Honest Deal Chest gets the most picks, every Adventurer will receive a bonus 2,000 Cron Stones. Pearl Abyss plans to reveal the PC results on November 12, with mail delivery timing varying by region.

Pearl Abyss also notes a Combat Special Pass sale tied to the event period, with more Shakatu quests and Thanksgiving events coming later in November. Console players are on a different schedule, with login rewards listed for November 13 through December 9.
