Revision 4

Overview

The Bekker Musket is a firearm in Crimson Desert classified as a musket. It is the only musket currently available in the game and provides a Level 2 Critical Hit Chance bonus, the highest crit bonus found on any firearm. The Bekker Musket can only be wielded by Damiane.

With a base Attack Power of 12, the Bekker Musket does not match the raw damage of pistols like the Spencer Pistol (16) or the Jemel Pistol (18). What sets it apart is the elevated Critical Hit Chance. Every shot has a significantly higher probability of dealing critical damage, which can produce devastating bursts on lucky hits. Players who enjoy gambling on big crits will find this musket more rewarding over time than weapons with consistent but lower output.

Like all firearms in Crimson Desert, the Bekker Musket requires ammunition to fire. Firearms may use Bullets or Cannon Balls depending on the weapon type. Make sure to stock up before heading into combat.

Stats

How to Obtain

The Bekker Musket can be crafted at a Blacksmith using the following materials:

A firearm crafting book is required to unlock the recipe before the Blacksmith can forge it. Crafting books can be purchased from equipment shops or found throughout Pywel. The musket cannot be purchased directly from merchants, so players must gather the crafting materials themselves.

Refinement and Upgrades

The Bekker Musket supports 10 refinement levels and 5 Abyss Core slots. Refinement increases the weapon's base Attack Power, while Abyss Cores allow further customization through a Witch vendor.

The Level 2 Critical Hit Chance is the weapon's standout feature. To maximize the payoff from frequent crits, consider equipping Abyss Cores that boost Critical Hit Damage. This turns each lucky crit into a much larger damage spike, giving the musket burst potential that rivals or exceeds higher-base-damage alternatives on a per-hit basis.

Combat Tips

The Bekker Musket rewards patient, precise shooting. Since Damiane can weave firearm shots into her melee combos with skills like Charged Shot, Evasive Shot, and Quick Reload, the elevated crit rate means that any shot in a combo chain has a real chance of dealing bonus damage.

Players who enjoy a hybrid melee-ranged fighting style with Damiane will appreciate the Bekker Musket as a reliable source of burst damage between sword swings. If you find yourself consistently landing crits, the Bekker Musket can outdamage even the Spencer Pistol despite its lower base Attack Power.

The musket's lower Attack Power compared to pistols means it is less effective when crits do not land. Players who prefer predictable, consistent damage should consider the Jemel Pistol or Spencer Pistol instead. The Bekker Musket is the high-variance option for players who like risk-reward trade-offs in combat.
