The notorious Black Market in Combat Arms is a shop where users can purchase exclusive gear to differentiate themselves from others. This is because those with Black Market items are easily distinguishable from normal items due to their exclusiveness. Many of the Black Market items also have tactical advantage over the normal ones.

Unlike GP, which is currency that is earned in-game, Black Market equipment can only be purchased with NX currency, which have to be paid for with real life money.

Some of the items available include Vests and Uniforms, Weaponry, Mercenaries, Clan Emblems, and more.

You can be any rank to buy Black Market things. There are some overly powerful weapons which will give you an almost unfair advantage over regular players. This can be seen as either a good thing, or bad thing, depending whether you have the more powerful weapon.

Basically Nexon are rewarding those who shell out real dosh, by giving them more power. This makes sense though, as it is how they make their money. Though it has led to the phrase “Free to play, pay to win” becoming a common catch-cry among users.
