Black Desert Online – What can I use Contribution Points for?

by Falagar / Articles, Black Desert Online Guides / 03 Nov 2019

The most common use of contribution points in Black Desert Online is to invest in nodes. The little circles that are spread across your map are these nodes. They are used to connect trade routes and worker nodes to the cities. You should also consider connecting your grinding spots to a town and invest some energy into the node.

To invest in a node you need to visit the node manager of each node and speak with him. Select invest in nodes and you have now invested in this node. To withdraw your investment you just need to open up your map, select the node and press the withdraw button. Note that you can only withdraw investment from nodes that are free of other connections.

If you have an active value pack you don‘t need to travel to the node managers. You can invest contribution points in nodes directly from the map at the cost of 10 energy.

Another use for contribution points is to invest in workshops. These are the houses in the cities, towns, and farms. By investing CP into them you can for example gain more space in your storage, get lodgings for workers and invest in workshops where your workers can produce weapons, armor, and other equipment.

A third and final use of CP is to rent items from NPC‘s. Storage keepers have items that allow you to access the storage from your home, some NPC‘s have special items needed to complete quests and so forth.
