Happy New Years!

Our Discord Staff team would like to wish you all a warm and safe journey throughout 2023.
For those who had a difficult past year, we hope the new year will serve you better. Keep on moving forward, you can do it!

2022 was a big year for our Lost Ark Community along with the official launch of Amazon's Lost Ark. Many of us waited for any news related to a western release since 2016. A western version was uncertain for many years until Amazon's announcement in 2021. Looking back, our discord community has been through a lot together. We played the Closed Beta tests in Korea and struggled desperately to get a taste of Lost Ark in the previous regions even through unconventional means. We restructured our entire discord server twice and added new features to help our community interact with each other and the game. These include the regional channels, role assignment, our live forum updates, the help channel, pvp channels, media/gallery channels, LFG forums, Merchant bot, dynamic voice rooms, anti-raid tech, and support tickets. Many volunteered to help contribute to the community and compile information through guides or videos, translating foreign texts, assisting others, making back ups, and keeping track of new information. Some knowledgeable members even became pillars in the community for their guides. And especially big props to our class channels that came together to build high quality class guides for the community. We look forward to seeing what new creations our Lost Ark community will make this year.

We are very thankful to all those who stayed with us and to those who joined us for the first time in 2022.
Our goal is to make sure this server remains a resource and central hub for players to exchange information or socialize in the Lost Ark community.
We hope that you will all continue enjoying your time in our discord while we continue to serve the community and find new ways to enrich your experience in 2023.
Lai Lai!

Update Notes

abyssraid Fixed an issue where players were unable to purchase Mount: Elemental Horse Kelpion from the PvP shop if it was purchased during Competitive Proving Grounds Season 1.

abyssraid The correct Neria model will now appear in White Wolf’s Haven.

And a big one now.

Upcoming Releases

sidequest Artist class work has finished ahead of schedule and will now release in March instead of April

abyssraid Stuff happening in Rowen.

guardians Item Level 1445 is required to begin Rowen's world quest. Once a faction is chosen after completing the “Cataclysmic Eliyabeck” world quest, you will enter a PvP mode against the opposing faction.

guardians Ranks for the Factions are divided into 15 tiers and can be earned by participating in activities to get Faction XP, such as killing the opposing faction's members and participating in daily, weekly, and co-op quests. In next week's update, the war between Preigelli and Liebertane will begin— but the competition heats up further in March, when the Tulubik Battlefield releases.

sidequest The February Anniversary Celebration Update also includes new events with valuable rewards to celebrate Lost Ark’s first birthday in the west, along with other activities like new Twitch Drops.

kakul As a reminder for everyone in our community:

With the release of Artist coming in March now, we need to remind everyone we have a zero tolerance policy on harassment, sexual misconduct and any behaviors against our #rules-info and Discords Terms of Service. I highly suggest reading both as once Artist comes closer to release, we will be heavily enforcing the rules as we do around every release. As always, we can't be in every channel all day. If you see any rule breaks, let us know via #old-support-tickets and do not attempt to moderate it yourself. Treat other people like your mother treats you.

Two in one day? What is this craziness??

Heroes of Arkesia,

Your time to purchase the current Starter Packs is running out fast — after our game update and maintenance on February 8th, these packs will no longer be available to purchase in-game, and the included Achatemeow Pet Selection Box and the Dyorika Warhorse Mount will not be obtainable in the store.

These packs can be found under the “Essentials“ tab in the Lost Ark Shop or purchased online via Amazon or Steam 2, and come in three different tiers: Apprentice, Explorer, and Vanquisher. Depending on the tier you choose, the Starter Packs contain a variety of valuable items such as 30-Day Crystalline Aura, a Character Expansion Slot, the soon-to-be gone Achatemeow Pet Selection Box and Dyorika Warhorse Mount, and more.

These Starter Packs will be replaced with brand new offerings for you to enjoy — more details will be shared when they arrive on February 8th, so be on the lookout.

If you want to get your hands one of the original Starter Packs and this special mount or pet, be sure to make your purchase before it’s too late!

Content Update

At this time we are unaware of the scheduled downtime needed to implement this update. We will make a more official post once that information is available.

While the Artist's attack power is on the low side, she is capable of providing strong support to allies, and rescuing them from peril with her illusion powers— making her a welcome member of any party. The Artist is the first Advanced Class an entirely new class category; Specialists, who will have more than one appearance in 2023.

This letter talks about different issues being addressed in the future based on QoL and game mechanics.

Full letter can be found here

War on Bots

  • AG understands that restrictions placed to prevent bots also hurts the new player progression experience and will work on a solution.
  • Have banned millions of bots and will take action on RMT/Bots based on gold and material accumulation to prevent inflation.
  • New security measures and ongoing bans have led to removing 55 Billion of bot gold from game and 99% decrease in bot interaction from economy.
  • There will be additional changes for bot prevention next month.

New Player Experience Changes (Aiming for summer/fall)

  • T1 (301) to T3-2 (1340) will be merged to 2 tiers instead of 4 progression steps for simplicity.
  • Guardian first clear and Tower rewards will be improved so that content wont have to be repeated in every tier.
  • Will improve Rune/Tripod/Card/Gem collection.
  • Changes to sailing content and improved coop quests.
  • New card sets 'Deep Dive' and 'You Have a Plan' will have card collection improved.
  • Reduction in silver/material cost for gear progression.
  • They are looking for ways to make Alt gear progression easier. This also includes reducing systems for every character such as the Triport unlocks being roster based. The goal is to reduce time consuming activities for alts such as replaying story quests.
  • They are aware that Knowledge Transfer has too many restrictions for New players to use.
#

Player Exhaustion

  • They are aware of frequent updates leading to exhaustion and gatekeeping, further hurting new/returning players.
  • Argos will have its entry lowered and the number of patterns and 'wipe' mechanics will be tuned down.
  • Smilegate's research and development team are looking into applying similar changes to Valtan and Vykas appropriately.
  • Smilegate is aware of the frequent discussions and discontent around dailies and will need more time to research solutions.
  • Ebony Cube will be added in May and it will combine Boss Rush and Dimensional Cubes.

Content and Event Cadence

  • AG is concerned about increasing the speed of content release as it will put a strain on localization timelines and contribute to player burnout along with pressure for players to stay "caught up". Instead they will try to focus on getting new classes updated as soon as possible independent of content release order.
  • They plan on bringing newer events from Korea and possibly making Western exclusive ones.

Amazon plans on increasing their open communication with this letter being the first of many steps.
A gift has been sent to all players who login before May 19:

  • Mokoko Skin Selection Chest
  • Mokoko Pet Selection Chest
  • Mokoboard Selection Chest
  • Battle Item Chest x 10
  • 1 million silver
  • Relic Rapport Chest x 3
  • Pheon x 50

"As we progress into 2023 and beyond, our very first priority is you, the players of Lost Ark. We plan to close the distance between you and our teams at Amazon Games and Smilegate RPG, by taking one step at a time to interact more with you. We’ll see you again next week with the 2023 Roadmap - Part 2, which has some exciting surprises.

Thank you for the patience and dedication you have shown past year. We will continually strive to exceed your expectations."
-Amazon Games & Smilegate RPG

LOA ON SUMMER EVENT on <t:1687590000:f>

The LOA ON Summer will be livestreamed <t:1687590000:R>. (June 24, 2023 16:00 KST)

LOA ON is an official event Smilegate holds in Korea to make announcements, reveal content/roadmap, QoL, system updates, review changes and address concerns.
There are usually two large events, Summer and Winter along with mini ones. The game updates announced during these events are specifically for the Korean region of the game, however majority of updates eventually release on our version as well. It is a good way of seeing what will come on the horizon.

The livestream will likely have english subtitles like last time and we will write up a summary of major points showcased.
I will update this link and make another announcement when LOA ON goes live.

HOTFIX <t:1687244340:R>

Servers down for 1 hour.

EDIT: It looks like EU Central has gone down 30minutes early.

Game Downtime - Auction House Fix

Greetings Heroes of Arkesia,
 
Following up on the Auction House issues from the last game update while some players did not correctly obtain their gold/pheons/items from bids, we will be performing a quick maintenance to fix the issue.

All Lost Ark regions will be brought down on Monday, June 19th at 11:59 PM PT / Tuesday, June 20th at 2:59 AM ET / 6:59 AM UTC for a brief maintenance, with downtime expected to last up to 1 hour. When servers come back up, Auction House issues should be resolved.

Thank you for your patience, and we’ll see you back in Arkesia soon!

HOTFIX EXTENDED

EU Central will have extended maintenance. Time is not given.

Other regions (NA East, NA West, EU West, South America), will come back up <t:1687251600:R> (<t:1687251600:f>)

We need to extend the maintenance for all regions.

Last night we faced an issue with the Europe Central servers, forcing us to restart them before the maintenance and without prior notice. Because of this issue, the maintenance for the Europe Central region needs to be extended and we will let you know as soon as we have an estimated end time.

We expect the North America East, North America West, Europe West, and South America servers to be back around 2 am PT / 11 am CEST but we will let you know as soon as we have more information to share. 

Thank you for your patience.

Region Merge

EU West is planned to merge into EU Central later this summer. The process is still in development. <@&626116271511175179> <@&943966875602288650>

Full letter below:

Heroes of Arkesia,

Later this summer we plan to conduct a region merge to fold Europe West into Europe Central. We know players have been requesting region merges, and our teams at Amazon Games and Smilegate RPG are currently building the components to make this happen.

At this time, we don’t have any other region merges planned. While we have seen feedback that some players in South America would like us to consider a merge, merging South America into North America could create a suboptimal player experience due to increased latency. However, we will continue to monitor and look for ways to improve the player experience.

As we move toward the region merge our team is working to identify the full policy, similar to the plan we released during the last round of server merges. We’ll make sure to keep you updated and share the plan as soon as it’s finalized.

Similarly, we know that players on some lower population servers have been inquiring about server merges. After the August region merge, we will begin identifying servers in need of a merge. Stay tuned for information on region and server merges here, on playlostark.com. In the meantime, we’ll see you in Arkesia.

Gold River Stream Recap Notes

Gold River held a livestream to discuss future changes that would satisfy new/returning players and daily/weekly homework content.

This stream is for the Korean Region, we do not know when these changes will come to the West

Revamped Special High End Bosses

Extreme Valtan was a big hit with the Korean audience so Gold River and his team are looking to incorporate more bosses that will join with Extreme Valtan to give a fresh encounter and great rewards to those looking to enjoy more high end content.

  • Examples can include the other Legion Raid Commanders as well as Mari, Stella, Zaika, J & S, and Banda

Legion Raid Commander Gate Reworks & Removals

The Following Gates are subject to be reworked:

  • Kayangel Gate 2
  • Brelshaza Gate 1
  • Brelshaza Gate 3
  • Brelshaza Gate 6 (Gate 6 only needs to be completed once every two weeks)

The Following Gates are subject to be removed:

  • Vykas Gate 1
  • Kayangle Gate 1
  • Brelshaza Gate 2
  • Brelshaza Gate 5
    These Gates will NOT be removed from Hell Mode

Chaos Gate, Secret Maps, and Ghost Ship

  • Chaos Gate, Secret Maps, and Ghost Ship will be consolidated into just Chaos Gates.
  • There will be a rework to the rules of Chaos Gates as well as loot drops to be improved significantly.
  • Possible UI update so you can choose at what item level you want to enter into.
  • Improvement of visuals and assets and other Quality of Life improvements.
  • Possible update to matchmaking so it is universal in your designated region and not just to your server.

Plans for Horizontal Content Support for New Players

  • Smilegate is currently exploring ways to help support new players' experience in regards to essential collectables.
  • No plans currently for Mokoko Seeds, World Tree Leaves, and Music Box.
  • Everything else not mentioned above will receive a boost to help new players (Ex: Skill Points, Ignea Tokens, Omnium Stars, Giant Hearts, and etc.)

Entropy Set

  • Entropy Set will be removed and replaced with a set that is more comfortable with positional players.
  • This is does not mean front and back positioning will become obsolete.

Support Class

  • Gold River and Smilegate acknowledges that supports do not "feel" stronger when honing as DPS' do.
  • Gold River states that he will implement a damage buff to assist support classes for solo content.
  • Adding a new support class would provide a temporary fix but it will not solve the shortage of supports.
  • Adjusting the floor and ceiling of support will make endgame raids harder, so it cannot be an option as it will increase gatekeeping.
  • Currently, they do not have a solution to this problem but they are going to talk about it more internally.

Continued

#

Part 2

Quality of Life Improvements

  • Battle items will get their own inventory tab.
  • You can favorite your battle items as well so they're easier to find.
  • Improved UI update to show if cards being sold by merchants are maxed out in your card inventory.
  • Ocean Liners can now travel to any other port no matter which one you're currently at.

Thaemine Update

  • Thaemine's update is titled, "Eclipse."
    Included in this update is:
  • Thaemine Legion Commander Raid
  • New Guardian Raid
  • New Chaos Dungeon
  • New Hyper Express Pass called "Eclipse Express" (this is will be different from the previous Super Mokoko Express)
  • Transcendence Gear feature being added in relation to Thaemine
  • More Music Box Collectables
  • Stronghold Update
  • As well as the Chaos Gate overhaul mentioned earlier in the stream.

Eclipse Update Trailer Screening in Seoul

There will be a theater screening on the 9th of September featuring the trailer for the Eclipse Update in Seoul. As it is the last legion raid they want to make it special, and to those who cannot attend in person this event will be live streamed. You cannot get tickets to this event however if you are under 1540 item level. The three directors (Team Managers) from the past LOA ON's will be present at this event as well.

Souleater Advanced Class

The Souleater arrives in Arkesia, accompanied by progression events to help players quickly level up. The Souleater – the Master of Specters – is an Assassin subclass who wields a giant scythe to collect her enemies’ souls. Souleater can choose to attack in three different ways: directly with the scythe, by summoning the dead, or with powerful Deathlord attacks.

South Vern Powerpass & Super Mokoko Express Event

South Vern Powerpass will be available with the update for players to use until February 7, 2024.
Players will be able to designate one character between Item Level 1415 and 1540 on their account to participate in the Super Mokoko Express Event.

  • Discounted honing rates
  • 5x3 Engraving support
  • Accessories with relevant stats
  • Valuable rewards such as silver, honing materials, high level Gems and more!

  • 2x Artisan’s Energy when honing Brelshaza Ancient Gear from 1540 to 1580.

  • Phantom Intentions from the Brelshaza Legion Raid

Jump-Start Server Reconnection

In the November Update, we will be reconnecting Jump-Start Servers. When Jump-Start Servers are reconnected to their respective region, they will function like any other server, with the Auction House, Marketplace, PvE Matchmaking, and Party-Finder all available to play and interact with other players in that region. The Jump-Start Server progression events will continue as previously planned until December 13, 2023.

February Update from Amazon Games and Smilegate RPG

Road to Thaemine

  • Road to Thaemine was planned to release in April with Thaemine, but it has been moved to the March Update.
  • This event is made to help players who've reached 1580 through the Super Mokoko Express to reach the 1600s with more ease.
  • Finally, the name isn't finalized so it may be changed to fit more with the month's Breaker theme.

New and Returning Events

  • The beloved Akesia Grand Prix Event is making its return!
  • Furthermore, there will be more events made specifically to help players reach 1600 item level and higher. An example would be an event to give extra rewards when clearing Legion Raids.

Thaemine First

  • There will be a split release for the raid's First mode and its general Normal and Hard mode versions. This is to prepare and facilitate the race to clear the First mode.

Server Merges

  • On March 6th and 13th, there will be two rounds of server merges that will target all regions to bring more players together. More details will be shared in a future article.

Region Merges

  • In the Summer of 2024, Amazon Games and Smilegate RPG have worked together so they can merge NA East, NA West, and SA into one mega region!
  • As AGS and SGRPG work together to finalize all details of this merge, more details will be provided in further articles.

If you used a Powerpass that resulted in a character having the highest Item Level on your Roster, any active 3-day account restrictions will carry over to the Roster that your character is merged into. This will lift after the 3-day period has ended.
If you have a Roster that is ineligible for New or Returning User Login Events and is merged with a Roster that is currently participating in one of these login events, you will no longer be able to access the events after the merge.

Thank you for your understanding. Full downtime information will be posted with our maintenance notice.

Regarding the "Descend into Darkness/Road of the Breaker" Event

In the upcoming March Update, when designating a character for the Descend into Darkness (incorrectly named "Road of the Breaker" in some screens) event players will see messaging in-game that states that you can change your event character one time. This is incorrect, and you will be locked into the first character you choose for that event. You cannot change this character.

Please also note that Customer Support will not be able to assist with any changes to a new character for the event. The incorrect text will be removed in a future update.

Additionally, the Descend into Darkness event is slated for characters in the item level range of: 1580-1600.

Thaemine Legion Raid

Despite the efforts of adventurers to fend off demons in Luterra, the allied forces failed to stop Thaemine from summoning his fortress, the Dark Baratron. Thaemine created this area under red moon, and disappeared into the Dark Baratron. Seated on the Throne of Despair, he is observing and preparing as the Dark Baratron begins to impact Arkesia. Under the influence of the Dark Baratron that unravels order and disperses darkness, Luterra is being reshaped, beginning to resemble the chaos of Petrania. Track Thaemine to Dark Baratron and face him as the war between Light and Darkness wages in an 8-player Legion Raid.

  • Players can challenge the Legion Commander Raid 'Darkness Legion Commander Thaemine' even without completing the prelude quest for 'Darkness Legion Commander Thaemine'.
  • The entry item level for the Thaemine Legion Raid varies by difficulty:
  • Normal: Item level 1610 or higher
  • Hard: Item level 1630 or higher
  • The Thaemine Legion Raid does not offer special difficulty levels.

Transcendance

Gear Transcendence is a new system in which players can reinforce and improve their gear’s basic effects by using ancient power sealed within ruins.

This will manifest through increased damage and defense, with some special abilities for both DPS and Support playstyles. The crafting materials for 'Dark Fire' and 'Ancient Soundstone' used in Transcendence can be acquired from Legion Raid 'Darkness Legion Commander Thaemine'. 4 new achievements related to Gear Transcendence have been added.

Other Additions

  • Veskal Guardian Raid
  • New Cosmetics
  • New 1630 Activities
  • Event Updates
  • Currency Exchange Update

Events

Chaos Assault Event

The first part of the Kurzan Prelude Event, Chaos Assault, will arrive in May.

Players will need to head to Mount Zagoras, where Chaos has taken hold, and defeat hordes of enemies by entering Distorted Chaos rifts that will open in Mount Zagoras. There’s a special Suppression Meter for the event that increases as more enemies are defeated, and resets daily at 10 a.m. server time. Defeating enemies or filling up the suppression meter will grant special powders that can be exchanged for special rewards at the event shop, and players can also earn a special new drop called Wishful Embers. The difficulty of the field varies depending on the player's character item level, but the same rewards are distributed regardless of the item level.

Wishful Embers can drop a range of special items, with a different loot table from Fate Embers. Drops include Silver, Epic, and Legendary Cards (including selectors); Card XP; Sailing Coins; Epic and Legendary Elixirs; and Processed Chaos Stones to improve Armor and Weapon quality.

The event shop will have some extra special items, including a mount and Stronghold Structures! Make sure to hop in game and earn Shadowfallen Chaos Powder to access a variety of impactful rewards.

Endgame Acceleration Event

With the faster content cadence in the West, we wanted to reward endgame players with additional materials to help them prepare for both Thaemine and the upcoming Echidna Kazeros Raid.

The event is structured to grant players clearing the Ivory Tower Abyssal Dungeon and Thaemine Legion Raid with additional Elixirs and Transcendence materials as they clear gates, along with gold to use for progression. We’re excited to see players continue to power-up their characters to combat the newest threats arriving in Arkesia.

Emergency Maintenance <t:1721930449:R>

Lost Ark Maintenance - <t:1721930449:F>

Heroes of Arkesia,

We are deploying a fix tonight to address the Fate Ember issue. Downtime is expected to last 3 hours.

We appreciate your patience while we investigated this issue. This bug occurred as a side effect while adding the most recent KR Growth Support changes to the Western version. This was not intended and will be fixed during this downtime. After this update, in Chaos Dungeons, where entry restrictions are above 1540, Gold Fate Embers will grant players gold just as before the July 17th update, which includes Gold rewards & rates.

SGR and AGS will not apply nerfs to Fate Embers intentionally without any prior announcement. We will announce if changes will be applied to Fate Embers.

During this time, we will also be deploying compensation for all players. You can find the specific information below:

  • Fixed an issue where the Gear Transcendence Stele information box would appear blank

Thank you for your patience, and we’ll see you in Arkesia soon!

Roadmap Update

Team Update - Roadmap Adjustment

Heroes of Arkesia,

Earlier this month we shared a first look at our upcoming roadmap and plans to release the next evolution of Lost Ark in the shape of Tier 4, along with new raids and many other key updates. Today, we have a few key updates to that plan. From thousands of lines of text in our supported languages to the accompanying voice lines, there’s a lot that goes into preparing major updates for their release into Arkesia’s Western shores. We’ve hit a small delay in our localization timeline, but we’re excited to share an update to the plan that we built in collaboration with Smilegate RPG during our recent trip to Korea, which factors in player feedback we’ve seen since announcing the roadmap.

Lost Ark Weekly Update - <t:1727247643:F>

Heroes of Arkesia,

All Lost Ark servers and regions will be taken offline on <t:1727247643:F> for our weekly maintenance. During this time, additional adjustments will be made to EAC. Downtime is estimated to last up to 4 hours.

Following the maintenance period, all players will receive a gift in their product inventories to help them continue through the Transcendence System as Tier 4 approaches! We’ve seen a lot of feedback from the community and reviewed player data surrounding the western balance changes to Behemoth. With the changes to Transcendence and Elixirs that also arrived with the ‘Chase The Storm’ update, we’ve seen feedback that newer 1620 characters are struggling with damage contribution or are being gatekept due to their Transcendence level. While Behemoth is clearable with a party of 1620s, we wanted to provide a gift to help players juice their characters up for the raid in response to the feedback we’ve seen. We looked into slightly tweaking the balance, but Tier 4’s imminent arrival on October 9 will provide an immediate and substantial Item Level boost for 1620 characters using the gear transfer system. We would rather you feel powered-up with lasting effects, such as some help progressing through the Transcendence System. We also hope that the in-game Chase The Storm event continues to help you power up your roster. To support that goal, the “Behemoth Buster” player gift will contain the following:

  • 30 Armor Transcendence Restoration Tickets
  • 10 Weapon Transcendence Restoration Tickets
  • 3 [Masterwork] Master's Herb Steaks

Thank you for your patience, and we’ll see you in Arkesia soon!

NA Region Maintenance extension by 6 hours (Now ending <t:1761210033:R>)

We discovered an issue with the merge that needs to be resolved before reopening. We have identified a fix already, but we want to ensure everything performs smoothly before players enter Arkesia.

Unfortunately, we will need to extend downtime by approximately 6 additional hours. That estimate is on the longer side to provide a buffer for additional testing, but we will work to open the servers as quickly as possible.

Weekly Maintenance <t:1766563251:R>

Various Express event reward, Freja Shop, Raid reward and UI fixes
Estimated downtime is 4 hours

Lost Ark Weekly Update – <t:1766563251:F>

All Lost Ark servers and regions will be taken offline at <t:1766563251:F> for our weekly maintenance. Downtime is expected to last up to 4 hours.

This update includes the following fixes:

  • Fixed an issue where players are unable to switch express characters once a gear piece is tempered for Advanced Honing Lv. 3.
  • Fixed an issue where the Freja Star Shop displays account-bound purchase limits instead of roster-bound limits like it says until the game client is fully restarted.
  • Fixed an issue where the Arktoberfest Surprise Chests don’t properly display and grant rewards. Additionally, the expiry date for the Chest has been changed to 1/14/2026 to give players enough time to use up the chests.
  • Fixed an issue where the Advanced Honing UI doesn’t display the tool tip window for the express boost information when the mouse is moved over the express icon.
  • Fixed an issue where the express character switch UI displays wrong item level information of ‘1701 or below’ instead of ‘below 1701’.
  • Fixed an issue where all event Accessories are taken back when the express character is switched after both the Rimeria Powerpass and Express event were used for the same character.
  • Fixed the issue where Random Relic Engravings Chest granted as a 1700 achievement reward in the Express event has a item level limit of 1720.
  • Fixed the issue where Arcturus's Touch is granting Dark Fire and Elixir materials from Ivory Tower and Thaemine.

The response to our recent survey was extraordinary: over 11,000 shared detailed feedback, nearly tripling our goal and the survey itself reached 20,569 discord servers.

Every piece of feedback, every passionate discussion, every suggestion shapes the future of Lost Ark.

Final Reminder: Use code WCOMMUNITY on the website to claim the community gift, until tomorrow March 18.

Dear Discord -Community,

a few months ago the second Discord - Moderator Akoto left, unbeknownst to many off us, even I realized only days (or months?) later. Since no beta was announced it was very do – able for me alone. But even when he was still part of this server we decided to get new moderators for when the next beta starts due to the increased chat-traffic. Since I realized that we will only need one more moderator for the next beta since handling still very do-able atm. Nevertheless is there still a hole to be filled, especially since the next beta is starting. That is why I am asking you, the members of this community, to apply for this position.
Due to me coming from the EU, we would prefer to add a person located in the South- or North American Continent or even somewhere from eastern Asia to our team, but applicants from EU are also accepted.

@everyone
Dear Community,
I am sorry that you are mentioned once again, but we are currently preparing the server for more traffic aswell as OBT alike.
But let me tell you a bit more about our recent changes to the server.

  • We put the channels #447085303069409301, #twitch-channels, and #worldboss-and-chaosgates on standby until Open Beta
  • The Channel #offtopic was deleted. I was told that some people would have liked keeping those old messages. But that message reached me too late and I had already deleted the channel, so that is entirely my fault. For the ones who cared: I am truly sorry
  • We introduced the #general-chat where you are allowed to talk about everything you like, the #lao-discussion keeps its role as the lost ark specific channel
  • And last but not least: As some of you have already realized we added class specific channels the class chat for general chatter about a class and the class guides channels that will give information about how to play those class or what is recommended. You are only able to see those when you assigned yourself the specific class role a function we introduced earlier already. Those channels will be moderated by a new kind of moderatros, the #class-moderators. Those are the first ones to talk to if something is wrong/wished in those channels.
    Those are the recent changes, we hope that you like them.

Additionally I’d like to inform you that @Yukisho applied this server for discord partnership and we are currently working on a few other things to improve your experience.

Kind regards

@everyone Hey folks, as some of you know already, Smilegate issued a re-verify on a lot (if not all, gotta confirm) of the existing accounts, so if you have your "physical phone number" handy, you should use that to re-verify your account. Since we don't provide information on the "other ways", we suggest you should talk to your "korean friends" about this issue and see what you can do.

@everyone If you want to play with the English Community, the community chosen server is the 2nd one,이그 하람(Egharam). If by any chance it says full or has a character creation lock, just wait it out, they keep reopening and closing servers to distribute players evenly. Of course you can select any server, without waiting, but most of the english community from this discord will play on the selected server. See you all ingame on November 7th! Still no information on when exactly the servers go live. Possibly November 7 00:00 KST timezone. You can pre-create your character and claim event rewards until November 5th 23:59 KST.

Lost Ark Open Beta servers will open its gates on November 7th 14:00(2PM) KST timezone (6AM CET / 9PM PST). I will update the command to reflect the correct time. Also there is now a 2 factor authentication on STOVE in the Security Settings(This is optional, you don't have to worry about it).

@everyone What is STOVE's 2FA(Two-factor authentication)? Whenever you log in to STOVE, you get asked for a code on STOVE's mobile app that approves your login request. Basically an extra security layer. This is completely optional and I'd suggest not using it on accounts you got from friends/bought from an account service, because if you need re-verification, nobody could log in to your account without these 2FA codes..

Currently users are getting this error:

This translates too:

We're sorry,
Currently there are too many users trying to connect, so servers are busy.

If you're getting this error, just try to reconnect again.
You did not get reverify, and it's not a bug or issue, it just means the authentication servers are busy.

To fix this simply exit out and try log in again.

If you're getting the error [10010] or an error saying

서버에 접속할 수 없습니다. 게임을 종료합니다.

This means there's an issue with your connection, please check your VPN or internet, or simply relog.

Thank you

Hello, all.

There seems to be several people who have been hit with reverification requests.

If you received a message saying:

본인인증대기

Then you need to reverify your accounts.
This should appear when you log into STOVE client. It does not seem to show if you're logging into the Onstove website.

So far, not everyone has been hit, chances are if you got flagged either because your VPN was shared with the Chinese hackers or Smilegate found your VPN channel.

If you can reverify, goodluck, if not, RIP.

Best of luck

Lost Ark Official Post About Reverification / Banning.

Hello, this is Lost Ark.
Lost Ark is currently providing services only in South Korea.
Therefore, We are looking at accounts who we suspect of accessing services though outside means.

We will take strict action against accounts confirmed to be playing outside the terms of Lost Ark.

Also, many adventurers are actively reporting suspicious accounts that use other person's personal information. Thank you very much for your contribution to making a more pleasant game environment.

Unfortunately, we cannot update adventurers with the details of our investigation, however we wished to show you the progress of our investigations into the many reports of abuse.

Based on information provided by users and our records, we constantly check to see if information has been passed on to another person illegally.

Accounts that are suspected are flagged as needing reverification before logging in. 
Currently, a total of 5,974 accounts have had reverification requested,

We will continue to follow up on newly discovered accounts in sequential order.
The players who get reverification requests will no longer be able to play the game if they acquired the information illegally, if you are an adventurer who plays on a normal account, you can use the game after you authenticate yourself.
We will continue to do our best so that adventurers can enjoy adventure in a pleasant environment.

Thank you

Quick Reverification Notice FAQ

  1. Should I be worried about reverification
    ㄴYes. There's always a risk

  2. Should I have a Korean Username?
    ㄴIt's not necessary but it might remove some suspicion.

  3. How do I know if I got hit?
    ㄴYou would be kicked out of the game, and when you log back in you'll get the notice

  4. Can I reverify with any number?
    ㄴNo only the original verification can reverify.

  5. Can I just get a sim card in Korea to make an account?
    ㄴNo, the account needs to be tied to a contract.

  6. Is this the Chinese's fault?
    ㄴWe do not put up with racism in chat, if a Mod or Admin catches you, you will be banned, no warning.

Thanks

@everyone
[English Patch - Alpha version]
The long awaited day has come, a few members from our community released an early version of the first english patch. This has 20% of the game's core translated(HUD/UI, most of the stuff you use daily, story etc will be a later thing). You can support the devs of it in the launcher via donate button.

DISCLAIMER: Using this could result in a ban if you do it stupidly. Please, do not share screenshots/footage/stream with engpatch and your nickname shown and check the restore original file option in the engpatch.

It has 3 options: Machine+Human(Google Translated, not ready yet), Human(Hand translated,20%) and Russian(also wip)

To use it:

  1. Must log into stove first before launching
  2. Apply patch, then start game through english patch launcher
  3. The launcher will force a command to run Lost Ark without waiting for Stove confirmation.

If the download gets taken down, we will mirror it.

PSA: Also added an #engpatch-reports-discussion channel to report issues / send feedback, etc...

The download can be found here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/jdm9ptg395pdevc/LostArkEnglishPatch.zip/file

@pallid coveyone
Dear Community,
we know that y’all higly dislike being pinged all the time, that is why this message was sent.
From now on, we will only @everyone in the announcement channel when it is really needed.
The server related stuff will be posted in the #server-announecements from now on and only to those who have chosen a server role, so one less ping for everyone who is not playing/not wanting to socialize all other server members.
The next thing is that the patch got its own category. In this you are able to tell about errors and generally talk about it. If you are interested in news about the patch feel free to assign yourself the patch role to be available for patch related pings. We wish we could do all of this with less roles but that's how discord works.

The Following message was written on behalf of the patch team, which they want you to read:

Update to the general development of the english patch
In the recent months a small group of individuals came together and started, after a few problems in the beginning, with the translation of Lost Ark and not distributing it freely to every westerner. They asked not being named due to quite some heavy criticism by Korean
https://i.postimg.cc/9MSV1WBb/this-is-just-sad.png

#

(Don’t hate on the Koreans though, it is understandable after what a few(!) Chinese people have done, who not only translated the game but also hacked it in a way that they didn’t require the queue)
They also wouldn’t be able to properly work on the translation if the Koreans would be “harassing” them. The team is aware of the possibility of getting stopped by Smilegate but hopes they’d understand and accept why they are doing their thing (western release pls?)
They are in NO way connected to the small group of Chinese who made the hacked client.
Since they are doing all of the translations by hand, please be patient with them
Whenever you find a mistake please tell them in the #eng-patch-report-discussion channel so they can be removed. The mistakes can be as unimportant as you can think e.g.
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/512527270204932116/512604322610282496/unknown.png

#

Of the 200 000 strings to translate there are still 180 000 left which is in part smilegates fault because the organization of the word files is hard to understand and therefore to translate. Another problem is the small size of the crew which is only able to translate about 1000 files a day IF the don’t get stopped by any technical difficulties.
At the end they ask, once again, for you to stay patient and await more updates aswell as, if you are able to, maybe spend them a coffee to keep them awake at night. You can do that via the donate button in the patch launcher or https://www.paypal.com/donate/?token=MHEP-dVBrl-CLDrF2_5ifWsbYprQ6FNDXv37eKQ_YvnA0c58Vi67kzovOQgfEueOTlm4D0&country.x=IE&locale.x=IE

So.. we're over 20.000 members, trolls started to come by, apologies for the delay of handling recent issues. I have increased our server's moderation levels and will continue to increase it to phone verification if the situation persists. Thank you for your understanding, if something bad happens, you can always DM me for faster response.

Hello @here there was a reverification wave today. If you're receiving a message when you log in, you most likely got hit.

Seemingly almost everyone got hit, so please check your account and check with your provider to see if you can reverify.

Best of luck and Goonspeed.

normal pike
#

@here Sorry for another ping, but to give an update on the situation regarding the verification wave.

There have been more reverification waves going out today as well, so even if you were safe last night you might still have an issue.
It seems like quite a large number of people--much larger than any other wave have had to reverify, including actual Koreans.
Currently, our belief is that there was a hack of some kind and email addresses were leaked. Several users have checked their login history on the OnSTOVE website and have seen something that looks like this:

2019.01.05 08:47:04    14.207.210.15    Thailand    실패(비밀번호 불일치)
2019.01.05 03:05:48    118.174.233.3    Thailand    실패(비밀번호 불일치)
2019.01.04 21:50:55    186.232.119.5    Brazil    실패(비밀번호 불일치)
2019.01.04 18:14:11    59.17.230.9    Korea, Republic of    성공
2019.01.03 18:47:53    122.99.214.13    Korea, Republic of    실패(비밀번호 불일치)
2019.01.03 18:22:49    122.99.152.15    Korea, Republic of    실패(비밀번호 불일치)

실패(비밀번호 불일치) means Login Fail (Incorrect Password)
and
성공 is Successful Login.

So it's clear that there are people out there attempting to login to people's accounts. You can check your account login history on the STOVE website by clicking the down arrow in the top right and selecting
Down Arrow > Security Settings > Login Record > View Record.

We're not sure how they grabbed all the accounts that they did, as several did not have any strange login information shown. We are still looking into the issue.
If you have any questions or ideas regarding the issue, feel free to head to #509981863046283277 and leave a question--you can ping me in that channel and I will try to respond as quickly as possible.

Best of Luck.

@here Apologies for the ping. It seems many were hit again by a verification wave, still too early to conclude a pattern and reason for accounts getting flagged. You can check by logging in stove and launching your game. We understand many are upset and want to search for a reason behind the verification, please keep such discussions under #509981863046283277 . Make sure you are taking the right precautions. Good luck! PingStove

@everyone We've got a new logo that is animated. It's nothing too special but it's decent. And this is all thanks to those who have Boosted the server! We've also gotten better voice quality as well as more emotes! But that's but the end of it. If you boost this server, it will put us closer to even better voice quality and far more emotes. Plus much much more. So boost the server!

Beta when?
As of now, there is no official announcement for when the next Beta test will be as well as the details surrounding it. As soon as an announcement is made, I will ping you all again. We might even have some goodies for you all as well for when that happens.

What now? PepeHands
I know I will be checking out some of the new demos at the steam's nextfest. as well as some new MMOs coming out in a few weeks.
If you're still craving some Lost Ark, you can still play with some minor inconvenience. Out of the three regions, RU has the lowest barrier of entry. Only a vpn is needed for region block. If interested we have our KR, RU, JP community channels locked behind region roles so head over to #navigation to unlock them. There are many veterans and content creators here with guides/info and will continue to help you all.

Moving forward
Concerning this discord, we still have our moderator applications open until the end of Sunday. We will be reviewing them after adding new member to our team. You can still apply at #discord-updates . NA/EU channels will be unlocked soon sometime this week (including guild recruitment).

Stick around, we'll still be here. Thanks for your time. @here

I hope you all have been enjoying the beta as much as I have! There is less than a day left until the beta ends. As of now, no extensions have been announced.
Spend the last few hours wisely! Maybe try something new instead of leveling, pvp/islands/stronghold/raids etc. Take some pictures!

Closed Beta has ended
The test has ended! Don't forget to save your Screenshots (should be in EFGame) and your configs. Beta test data will be wiped and the next time we expect to touch the game will be the headstart of release.

Personally, I had a lot of fun seeing everyone interacting with each other. These 7 days flew by real quick and we're happy to see all the newcomers in the discord. We look forward to seeing you all become core community members in the future! And thank you to all the patient helpers who sat in the game channels everyday answering questions from new players.

Feedback
This is the only beta test that Amazon Games has planned until release so it is absolutely necessary to leave proper feedback. It seems there are still quite a few issues that need to be ironed out. This may be our last chance to get things fixed before launch.
You can leave any comments or concerns on their forums: https://forums.playlostark.com/

Release Date
Still no confirmation on a date for release, all we know is Q1 2022 or between January and March of next year. If you haven't already, grab the Updates role in #navigation to be notified for future updates.

What to play?
If you're still itching for some more Lost Ark or didn't get the chance, a large portion of our discord players are still playing on other regions. The Russian servers are the most popular and the easiest to get into. Grab the RU role from #navigation , we have multiple RU channels for the community. JP is also an option for OCE/LATAM players.

Discord
Our discord team has been working hard to add new channels and functionality to the server to meet the community's needs. We will continue to keep adding things in the future. If you have any suggestions, use #request-a-mod . And a reminder if you haven't already, grab the region server roles!

Hope to see you all at release! letsplay @here

Happy New Years Everyone! 🥳 tada
Wherever you are in the world, we wish you a safe and joyous New Years!

This year was quite eventful for the Lost Ark community. We got confirmation of western release, Alpha test, Beta test, new regions and release date info all in the span of six months. The discord server grew again massively this year and we welcomed many newcomers to the community. With rising interest and excitement for release, we hope to continue serving the community through its future growth and making sure this server stays as a welcoming place for people from all over the world to share their knowledge and meet new players in the world of Lost Ark.

There have been a few bumps along the road this year with some of Amazon's decisions and while there may be instances in the future that also divide us as a community, we want to ensure that the server remains a safe place for people to feel included and have their voices heard in a civil matter. Discussions from different perspectives are always great for the community as long as they don't devolve into disrespectful behavior.

Recently our team has been noticing new members on the server engaging in such disrespectful behavior such as making rude statements towards women and minorities. We have been dealing with these troublemakers and some have even been banned. We want to remind you all that we have rules set in place with guidelines on which topics are not allowed for discussion. This is implemented to maintain a healthy chat experience on our Lost Ark Discord and follow the Discord/Partner TOS guidelines.

There are less than 40 days left until the head start launch of Lost Ark (February 8), we have a lot planned for the discord as well and can't wait to show you all.
Here's to a better year and a great launch!

Release head start begins on <t:1644339600:D> ! @everyone

Server List
As of now, we do not intend to announce "community servers". We do not think it would be wise to send so many players into one place. We will continue to discuss but in the meantime, if you lead a non-english speaking community and have decided on a server, we can make an announcement for it later. Please discuss with your guild.

Knowledge Transfer will be on our version at launch! <@&626116271511175179>
This lets you spend gold to level boost your alts with gold. You must have one character manually leveled for Vern boosts.
Your boost character gets locked for 8 hours and finishes with Vern story completed.
~~After Vern boost (Rohendel), for every manually leveled character (or payed boost purchase not on launch), you can knowledge transfer a new character. ~~
**EDIT:**The vern lvl 50 boost lets you boost 12 character. Boosting to contents after Vern requires a lot more gold and requires manually leveled characters/payed boosts to unlock more character boosts.

More info by Saintone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Thja0rIjfCs

unknown.png
umbral cradle
#

I want to make an amendment to what I said:
The details of Knowledge Transfer could be changed, we'll see it when Amazon tells us.
The Knowledge Transfer in KR lets you boost to different levels of content that has been cleared by your main character.
Vern skip only requires one manually leveled character and lets 12 more characters be boosted to Vern.

Example picture for Vern boost:

unknown.png
#

For Rohendel and beyond boosts, the conditions change.
1st Rohendel boost requires 1 existing character
2nd Rohendel boost requires 3 existing characters and so one (1-1, 2-3, 3-5, etc)

Example of Rohendel boosts and beyond:

unknown.png
#

These are current KR conditions and can change!

Knowledge Transfer conditions:
Boosting to Vern: need to do 10min of story to reach the estate
Boosting through Rohendel: need to reach ilvl 460
Boosting to Yorn: need to reach ilvl 600
Boosting to Feiton: need to reach ilvl 960
Boosting to Punika: need to reach ilvl 1100

Gold cost is
600
1000
1400
1600
2400

Thanks to @mossy obsidian for clarifications.

We have received official word from Roxx that amazon will not be setting up dedicated language servers.

Regarding our guild/community directory spreadsheet:
The data that we've collected through guild sign ups and polls does **not ** accurately reflect the reality of language distribution on the servers at launch.

Our small sample size that counts by guild rather than members helps to give people an idea of where they can find their respective community, not which ones to avoid. This data is small and does not factor in all the majority english players that will play on the servers.

There are both Community discords with thousands of members and guilds with 100 members grouped together on the list. And these are only users/communities who are aware of our discord/subreddit.

We will leave the server choice up to you and your communities to decide. As you have seen, people are easily swayed, announcing community servers will cause more problems for the community.

Crown QnA with Director Summary

Apologized for the original delay and stated that the game was not delayed because of New World.
The game was delayed because of adding Tier3.
The director requested from amazon to get players faster to Legion Raid because of how well they were received.
He was a little frustrated as to why Amazon did not reveal this detail.

15 classes at launch and will try to introduce a new class every 2-3 month intervals.
They already finished localizing the content including legion raids.
Argos will release a month later after launch and Valtan another month after that.
Pouring out updates may not be best option from past experience so they will monitor progression levels of the users and release accordingly.
"You might say, stop the update! Be Prepared!"

Recommends legion raids for vertical players and recommends exploring side stories/collections for horizontal players.
Its his dream to have a global event like Loa On some day but would need other regions to close the gap with KR first.

When asked about how he has such a good presence, he answers that Lost Ark has not always been so great but comradery has helped everyone get through the low times to reach this version of the game through feedback/encouragement/criticism.
Would like to see similar comradery here in western regions

(mentions superbowl)

He's been reading and watching Reddit/YouTube for lost ark. Saw the heated debates over T1/T3 content.
It almost took 2 years for T1 and T2 to come out. He wants to use T1/T2 as a way for players to learn to be acquainted and enjoy the game.
Mentions Sywo making great videos
Encourages more feed back

#

Publishers take variations into account between different regions in the world.
He believes all players will enjoy the game no matter where they're from.
Have been maintaining their vision of the game with Amazon and is happy to have reached that agreement.
Found it interesting people preferred Korean dubs from Squid game and saw on Reddit thread to add Korean voice overs back in November
We are going to maintain core of the game so please look forward to it

Addressing P2W, Lost Ark is a free to play game. Doesn't feel that the game creates obstacles that can't be cleared unless purchased.
Doesnt require items to be purchased for exploring and playing different types of content.
For those that prefer vertical content, and want to progress quickly into the game, then yes funds would be useful in that sense.
They are monitoring the ratio closely.
Special tip from director: "Don't go too fast, just take your time!"

Director's video was because he wanted to show a different angle and the beauty of the game, brag about the music.
He knows that lost ark is not built with focal point on PvP, they will do their best to improve the different aspects of pvp and check feedback.

Favorite character is Kadan. gigachad
He thinks he achieved what he set out to achieve. (Asked about global goal)
MMOs take a lot of time and cost to develop, many MMOs don't even make it to beta stage. They are hard to make.
Thinks 200k concurrent users

Believes MMOs require so much time commitment from everyone. Believes the time and effort invested will foster great memories for players.
"In 10 years, you can look back at Lost Ark and it makes you smile"

He didnt want to state favorite class but always checks around to see what needs revisions.
FemBers next year maybe
Agrees that class names shouldn't have been changed but circumstances lead up to it.

From Amazon:

Regarding Multiple Item Claims

Yesterday, a database timeout led to multiple claims of Founder’s Packs and Twitch Drops for some players. This affected less than 4% of all accounts, with the majority of these players only redeeming 1-2 extra items, which did not include any additional Royal Crystals. We worked quickly to deploy a fix that has prevented additional items from being created, and are currently working with Smilegate RPG to revoke the items that were created during the period that this occurred. We expect this fix to come later today, as it is a priority for the team to keep the in-game economy intact.

Thank you for your patience, and we will provide an update as soon as possible.

From Amazon

Character Creation Limits and Additional Servers

Today at 1:45 PM PT (9:45 PM UTC) we will be limiting the creation of characters by new players on servers that have extensive queue times. If you already have a character on one of these servers, you will still be able create additional characters for your Roster, but new players will not be able to join or create characters.

The following servers will have character creation limits put in place:

NA West
Mari
Valtan

NA East
Azena
Una
Regulus
Avesta

EU Central
Kadan
Trixion
Thirain
Zinnervale
Asta

This character creation limit will remain in place for the foreseeable future, and we will provide an update when it is eventually removed.

When this happens today, we will immediately be opening the following new servers for players:

EU Central
Beatrice

NA East
Elzowin

Though these servers are opening now, additional servers (not listed) will also be rolling out ahead of our full launch tomorrow.

While we have been excited to see the amazing response and support surrounding Lost Ark’s Head Start, we know that the server and queue situation has been frustrating for many players. Our team is actively working to help mitigate these issues ahead of our free-to-play launch on Friday. While limiting character creation and opening new servers is just one small part of addressing this complex situation, we will have additional information about the multiple steps we are taking available for players later today. We appreciate your patience while we work to address this situation.
https://forums.playlostark.com/t/character-creation-limits-and-additional-servers/61597

TLDR They will close down character creation for new players on certain servers with queues.
If you already have character on a server, you can keep making. New servers will be open in NA/EU regions. <@&626116271511175179>

**Update to Character Name Deletion **

Greetings, heroes! We have an update to share on what happens to character names after a character is deleted.

When a character that is Level 10 or lower is deleted, that character’s name will be available for reuse right away. If a character is Level or 11 or higher, when they are deleted their name will be recycled for reuse after a 60 day period passes.

We hope this makes things a bit easier when it comes to naming your character in Arkesia!

https://www.playlostark.com/en-us/news/articles/team-update-founders-packs-and-servers
Amazon Game Studios has issued another update relating to the founder's pack and server capacity situation. This one is really worth reading, but in case you're lazy here's the TLDR:
"Players have let us know one of the reasons they are reluctant to switch to lower population servers is because many of them have already redeemed their Founder’s Packs on another server. To help combat this and make exploring new servers a more reasonable choice, we will be granting ALL Founder’s Pack purchasers that redeem their pack by 12 PM PT (8 PM UTC) on Monday, February 14th an extra set of the exclusive items from the Founder’s Pack they redeemed (e.g., the Founder’s Exclusive Pet and Founder’s Title from the Bronze pack; see full list below) as well as some additional Royal Crystals for Silver, Gold, and Platinum Pack purchasers."
All cosmetics mentioned above will be untradeable

Additionally, NAE and EU are getting a bunch of new servers, 9 AM PT on Friday, February 11th.

An Additional Update to Character Creation Limits

We will be carefully lifting character creation limits on servers to allow new players to join servers that they may not have been able to previously. However, we are closely monitoring server populations and queue times, so these character creation limits may return as queues begin to grow. Please be aware that the list of servers with account limits may change frequently, and that you will have to relaunch your client in order to access a server with a newly lifted cap. While we are still aiming to keep wait times low, we hope this helps some players join their friends on more servers.

In case there was any confusion about transferring from EUC -> EUW:

You can not transfer your current character, you will be starting from scratch.

There is no cross-play support between the two EU regions, they are treated as completely separate regions like EU vs NA. If you transfer thinking you will be able to play with your friends on EUC, let me be clear:
you will not be able to play with people on EUC.

A little reminder about the launch celebration.
To summarize:

Anyone who logs in and enters Arkesia between February 19 at 11:59AM PT (February 20, 7:59AM UTC) through March 1 at 11:59PM PT (March 2 at 7:59PM UTC) will receive the gift. The gift includes these items (all non-tradeable):

🔹 Vehicle Selection Chest (choice of either mount)
🔸 Terpeion
🔸 Terpeion of the Shadow
🔹 Midsummer Night’s Dream Instrument Skin Selection Chest
🔹 Some miscellaneous consumables that you guys probably don't care about (Healing / Offensive / Rapport / Feathers)
🔹 An extra set of the exclusive founder's items and some additional royal crystals for those who purchased and redeemed their founder's packs before February 14th

The launch celebration gift will appear in your in-game product inventory the first time you login after it’s made available on February 19 at 11:59AM PT (February 20, 7:59PM UTC).

For Galatur players, additional compensation will be awarded.
