In Crimson Desert, the “Dark-Burgundy Cup” is a unique item that permanently raises your maximum stamina by 40 points. It’s awarded for defeating the boss “Crimson Warden” during the faction quest “Treacherous Graymane” for House Torel in the “Demeniss” category.
The faction quest “Treacherous Graymane” only unlocks after players have reached at least Chapter 8 of the main Crimson Desert storyline, so early-game adventurers will need to be patient.

How to use the Dark-Burgundy Cup in Crimson Desert
Save
Open your inventory and select the purple icon labeled “Treasures (Key Items)” in the upper rows. If the Dark-Burgundy Cup was your most recent acquisition, its icon will be displayed.
Select the Dark-Burgundy Cup in the left-hand column and press the “Use” button (shown above) to consume it. The moment the cup is used, the +40 stamina boost is instantly applied to all of your characters.
Some players have reported a bug that prevents the cup from working. Reloading an earlier save and trying again appears to fix the issue.
