After getting flamed by a user yesterday for asking valid questions, I wanted to see for myself. So I got the Russian version, a hack, and played for a few hours.
Sure enough, one of the options was unlimited mana and HP. Now I don't read Russian, and there were more buttons to press, but the only things I can verify are that mana, HP, and CDs are hackable.
I tested this by getting to level 21. It was very easy, since being unkillable I could gather up mobs very easily and then just AoE them down.
Here is a detailed list of what is hackable:
http://mmogfails.blogspot.com/2016/04/black-desert-online-most-hack-filled.htmlI found a post in Daums forum that mentioned the link above and had a video of a guy with God mode turned on. The thread was locked and deleted and is now not found.
So it also all obviously works on NA servers as well. It will just take time before it becomes widespread.
Right now if you speak Russian, you can pretty much do whatever you want in game, since all hacks I saw have been in that language.

Pro tip, shooting people with firearms may kill them, but please don't go out and test this, just take my word on it.

Maybe you should start playing and see if you get hooked instead of looking for hacks.
No, the last thread I made I was asking about hackers and got heckled.
So I went, got proof, and made a clear presentation of my findings in this thread.
@Kyleran
See my reply to Rama.
Hackers are rife - Check.
Failing to understand why this is a surprise - Check.
Thanks for....sharing?
I've done a lot of PVP in a lot of games, but I haven't ever run into infinite HP/MP hacks and zero CD on skills.
It would be benefitial for the discussion though if you were able to get the hack for our version of the game not russia. Russia is famous for this.
My point exactly.
I don't think I am violating the site TOS since i am not linking to any hacks or anything like that.
I wanted to show how incredibly easy it is to hack in this game, especially after being trolled in my other thread.
@Ramajama
I get you, and I see your point. Like I said, check that other thread. Some people are just trolling and I don't like that. If I could delete that other thread, I would. I actually said it multiple times before.
I don't really want to give Daum/PA any money though, so unless someone donates an account to me that has a high chance of getting banned, I can't test our version.
Plus I am almost finished downloading FF:RR and am going to start playing that, so my time will be going toward grinding in another game
All my research points leads me to believe that it is a fun game without the ridiculous hacking that can be achieved in BDO.
Take EVE for example, there are hacking sites out there (likely all scams as "everyone" knows you can't hack EVE) but in many years of playing can't recall a single time my enjoyment was spoiled by a hacker.
So even if it's happening, as long as it isn't visible to me I'm not concerned.
Probably helps that I don't read up on available hacks, better if I'm not always on the lookout for them I think.

I get you and somewhat agree with you. But I refuse to spend my time on a game only to be destroyed by someone that has a very clear and unfair advantage.

Now for these hacks, my guess is that PA/Daum are focusing on EU/NA instead of Russia, since that is where they make money. I dunno how much revenue they get from Russia but I guess not much currently. Hackers might be prevalent there but quickly disposed of here.
And there are cheats in EVERY PvP game I have played. Which is why I generally don't enjoy PvP games.
Now they have just a failing project and no money. Bummer.
Try to be excellent to everyone you meet. You never know what someone else has seen or endured.

It's most likely safe to assume they are using guest accounts.
Game apparently caters to many different play styles :-) I hope that twitch guy is having fun too
