Revision 1

Overview

The Bekker Halberd is a two-handed weapon in Crimson Desert with an Attack Power of 13 and an Attack Speed bonus at Level 1. Halberds are polearm-type weapons that offer long reach, letting players strike enemies from a safer distance than swords or axes. The Attack Speed bonus on the Bekker Halberd makes it one of the faster-swinging polearms, partially offsetting the typically slower pace of two-handed combat.

The Bekker Halberd is a solid entry-level halberd for players who want to experiment with the reach advantage of polearms. Its lower Attack Power compared to other two-handed options is compensated by the Attack Speed bonus, which allows for more frequent strikes and faster combo chains.

Stats

How to Obtain

The Bekker Halberd is likely obtainable through crafting at a Blacksmith or found as enemy loot and world drops. Halberds crafted at a Blacksmith typically require the crafting manual Two Handed Weapons of the World Vol. 1 and common materials such as Iron Ore and Copper Ore.

Refinement and Upgrades

The Bekker Halberd supports 10 refinement levels and 5 Abyss Core slots. Refinement increases the base Attack Power while preserving the Attack Speed bonus. The 5 core slots give ample room for customization. Cores that boost Critical Rate pair well with the weapon's faster attack speed, since more hits means more chances to trigger critical strikes.

Halberd Comparison

The Bekker Halberd is the lowest-damage halberd but offers the same Attack Speed bonus as the Bonepit Halberd at a lower power tier. Players looking for more damage should upgrade to the Bonepit or Marauder's Halberd when available, with the Lambert Halberd being the top-tier option.

Combat Tips

Halberds excel at keeping enemies at arm's length. The Bekker Halberd's reach lets Kliff hit targets before they close to melee range, and the Attack Speed bonus shortens the gap between pokes. This makes it particularly effective against aggressive enemies that rush in, since the player can land a hit and reposition before the enemy recovers. The weapon pairs well with defensive skills that capitalize on maintaining distance.
