final episode of this season

Then we wait...once again

neon cedar
#

Watching week to week sucks

fresh flint

It does yeah

neon cedar
#

I should forget about it for a year and come back

fresh flint
#

xD

#

Well that's only gonna be another whole season

#

I'm wondering if theyll do a movie next or just go to s3

#

So many animes like to start with movies now instead of s3 right off the bat

neon cedar
#

I'll forget about it for 5 years then

#

When I'm 90 I'll watch

#

One Piece spoiled me for unlimited viewing

abstract shuttle
#

why are some lazenith wingless?

neon cedar
#

All of them are

#

The Haals stole their ark to start shit. The lazs convinced their god to let them use their ark to fight back. All big no-nos

turbid oriole
#

Cause zosma balls

abstract shuttle
#

i mean, some of them have wings (but can't fly I think), but there are some lazeniths who just don't have any wings?

neon cedar
#

As punishment by Regulas, big god #1, the Haals were completely wipes from existence but because he loves teh Lazs a whole lot they got to stay. But their punishment was their wings got clipped and theyre stuck in the sky

real basin
#

read manhwa or novel, they better than the anime

Didn't they cover this in elagcia

During my succulent chinese meal?

#

TL;DR Haals got purged, Lazenith got locked up and no longer allowed agency (indoctrinated to believe they have no free will), and Sylvains had their magick made unstable. Everyone who survived the original war had their memories wiped.

It’s quite likely that Kadan isn’t even aware that he’s a Haal.

nvm otherwise he’d not know about Antares or the Cube

is the lightning set only worth using at 24 for brel?

18 + 18 is worth it

both support and dmg set

i don't think either of the supports I usually play with have 18+ on theirs

#

also isn't 18 for the support set only 1%

#

wouldnt you have a plan be better then?

nvm mb it's 18 + RTP24

so 18 with sup 24

#

Small indie company, entry level devs, too hard for them to add side content to do KEKW

dull obsidian
#

they've wanted to do it multiple times

#

but faced insane backlash from KR community

#

they could've ignored them and make side content

#

but that would take precious resources from raid development!

harsh lake
#

KR community doesn’t want content?

dull obsidian
#

nope

#

they want raids

harsh lake
dull obsidian
#

every single time SG has tried to add side content, other fun shit

#

KR community flamed the absolute shit out of them on Inven

#

now this game is just raid

Well they can suck it with scam frog @worldly hawk

They deserve it

#

Scam frog, AH 20-40

#

Nerfing gold

#

While adding gold boxes behind newest raid

#

If u ask me, I said nothing wrong

surreal gyro
#

whats bad about 20-40 ah?

wicked blade
surreal gyro
#

what gold did they nerf

wicked blade
#

You really don't know?

surreal gyro
#

are you talking about the gold nerfs in KR ?

wicked blade
#

We get those, just on delay

surreal gyro
#

no we dont

wicked blade
#

Watch and see

surreal gyro
#

our gold rewards are completely different to what KR has

wicked blade
surreal gyro
#

on top of bound gold

#

our Aegir HM and Brel give more gold than what KR ever had

wicked blade
#

Oh u right, they not gonna nerf gold

#

Just make 90% bound

surreal gyro
#

yes they should

wicked blade
#

Ye, that is surely better

#

U dumbass

surreal gyro
#

KR had AH 1-20 reduced by 50% on mats and 20% on gold

#

ofc they have to nerf the gold from older raids

#

to make people push

#

they have people camping at 1640-1660 for 1 year

wicked blade
#

@worldly hawk Do u by any chance have this guy on block aswell?

surreal gyro
#

This is basic game economics my guy

#

u dont understand what a gold nerf actually means and why they do it

wicked blade
#

I understand what people to block when I see them

surreal gyro
#

^_^ go for it its always nice living in a bubble

wicked blade
#

The Ex something guy

faint grove
#

smartest angle to force people to push is to nerf gold but compensate with an equivalent amount of bound fusions

worldly hawk
#

no he didn't do a dumb yet like aly or baldboi

wicked blade
#

Oh

#

I understand now

surreal gyro
wicked blade
#

If they nerf AH but also nerf gold

faint grove
#

not the same

wicked blade
#

How the fuck do u get fusion to begin with

#

If gold is nerfed

surreal gyro
#

by logging

wicked blade
#

And it is mostly bound

surreal gyro
#

?

wicked blade
#

Tell me Sherlock

worldly hawk
wicked blade
#

IT ALSO COSTS GOLD

worldly hawk
#

yes, and?

surreal gyro
#

no it doesnt

#

use a purple pot and u empty your energy in 1`0 mnutes

worldly hawk
#

10k energy is like 10minutes

wicked blade
#

U dumbass

worldly hawk
#

it's cheaper than buying it

#

by alot

surreal gyro
#

lmao

#

nah this is why this game is so shit currently

uncut dirge
#

one of these days

wicked blade
surreal gyro
#

u have people who complain but they dont wanna play the game

wicked blade
surreal gyro
worldly hawk
wicked blade
#

@surreal gyro Shut the fuck up

worldly hawk
surreal gyro
wicked blade
surreal gyro
#

you buy the pot from mari shop and you make that money back by seslling the T3 log mats

wicked blade
#

Or income if u are below 1660 is halved

#

So it doesn't matter if they nerfed AH

surreal gyro
#

yes it does matter

wicked blade
#

If they nerf gold and don't increase mats income

worldly hawk
surreal gyro
#

if they dont nerf gold and they nerf AH 1-20

wicked blade
#

You are pretty much at the same gold cost as before as AH

surreal gyro
#

people will just camp at 1660 and bus / alt roster

#

making gold more inflated

wicked blade
#

Nerfed gold by 20%, nerfed AH by 20%

worldly hawk
#

raven imma be honest with you, if you continue to ragebait and doom

#

you're next on my blocklist

wicked blade
#

Only mats are more nerfed

surreal gyro
#

u fail to understand the idea behind the gold nerfs and youre very shortsighted

wicked blade
#

Unless u want to go full bound honing

surreal gyro
#

thats the most polite i can be with u

wicked blade
#

Gold nerf affects u

uncut dirge
#

and what's the problem with that

#

i understand the idea behind gold nerfs

#

so SG can make more money

#

because gold is more scarce so people swipe more

wicked blade
#

Bro, they nerfed gold income but introduced gold boxes with new raid

#

What the fuck

worldly hawk
wicked blade
#

Are u even

#

Talking about

uncut dirge
#

i've yet to have one of the inflation doomers explain to me why inflation is terrible

surreal gyro
#

Gold nerfs are there to make people go up in the progression tier

worldly hawk
#

so people like raven can spend more $ on the game

surreal gyro
faint grove
#

its also about stopping inflatiion these rat 1640s are causing

worldly hawk
#

caus they fomo

uncut dirge
wicked blade
#

He may be dumb

#

@uncut dirge

#

Yup he is

surreal gyro
#

They are not making it hard

#

they are nerfing the requirements

wicked blade
#

There is no way he said that

surreal gyro
#

while you are sitting at 1640-1660 for over 1 year

#

its time for you to climb now

uncut dirge
wicked blade
#

Over a year?

#

Isn't T4 like 6 months old

#

Or is he from the future

uncut dirge
#

and the same is gonna be true for the 1640 -> 1670 bracket at least

#

after we get the gold nerfs

surreal gyro
#

T4 is 10 months old in KR

faint grove
uncut dirge
#

i think even 1680 is harder since you know

#

-20% gold cost on advanced honing != -45% on echidna, -40% on behe

uncut dirge
surreal gyro
#

-50% mats

uncut dirge
#

life skilling is something you trade with other players

wicked blade
uncut dirge
#

so if you're losing on red fusion mat cost

#

somebody else is winning (another player)

faint grove
#

its also -50% fusions which is a large portion of adv honing gold cost aswell

uncut dirge
#

yes

surreal gyro
#

^

faint grove
#

so its more or less equal in that sense

uncut dirge
#

but advanced honing is not how you do 1640 -> 1670

#

it is not even remotely equal

faint grove
#

it is now though

uncut dirge
#

it isn't

#

the math still works out to AH 1-10 for 1680

surreal gyro
faint grove
#

didnt math it yet ngl

#

i'd imagine 1-20 for 1680 tho

surreal gyro
#

who decided how u do 1640-1670

#

the costs

#

and they nerf the costs

wicked blade
#

Math.

uncut dirge
#

although

#

i haven't run the new numbers

surreal gyro
#

there u go

uncut dirge
#

when i ran them is when we got the info

surreal gyro
#

so lets not doom

uncut dirge
#

and mat prices were low at the time

#

they've gone up since then

wicked blade
#

New numbers make u AH +20 on +18

#

For 1700

uncut dirge
#

but i'm pretty sure 11->20 is still too expensive to do for 1680

wicked blade
#

10 ilvl down

#

And that is it

uncut dirge
#

also i'd like to remind everyone that these gold nerfs

faint grove
uncut dirge
#

also nerf the gold earning of the characters stuck in 1585 -> 1620

low nebula
wicked blade
#

That will make people push faster

uncut dirge
wicked blade
#

By nerfing their income

#

That is how it works

uncut dirge
#

i get where @surreal gyro is coming from

worthy horizon
#

is double dipping world boss / chaos gate still in the game with daylight saving?

uncut dirge
#

but smilegate is very bad at "housekeeping" to fix the honing costs

surreal gyro
#

theyre mistake is the 1580=1620 dead zone yes

uncut dirge
#

and other problems that gold nerfs have caused

surreal gyro
#

the thing is that KR has a massive bussing/opa service issue

uncut dirge
#

and based on their history i dont believe they will ever get on top of that

surreal gyro
#

they need to get rid of these 1640 rats

uncut dirge
#

people that fall behind somehow always lose out

#

but anyway, i don't think inflation is nearly as bad as people make it out to be

uncut dirge
#

the less gold is worth the cheaper honing is

wicked blade
surreal gyro
#

the thing is that they wont do that in the west

#

they will nerf gold but add bound gold

#

to compensate

#

so it wont be nearly as bad here anyway

#

and also our brel and aegir give in fact more gold than KR has

real basin
#

nerfing gold income in older raids isn't about controlling inflation, it's so they can keep moving their fomo window, 1620 is bait and 1660-1680 will become bait as the gold you can earn before those breakpoints gets nerfed more and more, the intention is for you to swipe through them, not actually play the game, and people buy the inflation justification

wicked blade
#

Exactly

rocky plume
#

1640 is the best spot

surreal gyro
#

No you actually dont understand

#

how much gold 1640s are making

#

were making, before the nerf

wicked blade
#

If they wanted to fight inflation, they would not make gold boxes

#

lol

surreal gyro
#

what gold boxes?

#

fate ember ones?

wicked blade
#

With new raid

#

Up to 500k gold

surreal gyro
#

thats why they are there to motivate you to hone up

#

these boxes drop at 1680+

wicked blade
#

So, to fomo

#

Smart

surreal gyro
#

call it how u want

#

"fomo"

wicked blade
#

IT IS LITERALLY WHAT IT IS

surreal gyro
#

its there to make people go up the tier

wicked blade
#

@worldly hawk Yup, u are right

#

He is just dumb af

surreal gyro
#

You are just extremely biased

#

in a negative way

#

u dont wanna play the game

#

u dont want to put the effort

Me with my 1600-1680 in 5 weeks full ancient and all raids done.
Yeah, I don't want to play

Shut up.

#

Then dont complain

wicked blade
#

???

surreal gyro
#

when osmeone if logging or farming fusions

#

and u dont

#

cause u dont wanna play more

wicked blade
#

I can complain because I want game to get better

surreal gyro
#

simple as that

wicked blade

Go shill on reddit

low nebula

Or official

surreal gyro

ok but you dont want the game to be better

you re just selfish

low nebula

and dw

#

everywhere u go u have people like u

#

crying non stop

wicked blade
#

Ye, LOA is great game, so great that KR community was on fire about some SG decisions

low nebula
#

kr loa is garbage

#

our is flawed but actually game

surreal gyro
#

bro KR is literally a shitshow

worldly hawk
surreal gyro
#

we have had 10x better stuff than KR

wicked blade
#

They just need to remove jail from raids and make u redo the raid if u get jailed

#

And gg ez

#

Reduction in busses

#

And make busses illegal

#

Problem solved

surreal gyro
#

yes i agree with u that they shud change the lockout

surreal gyro
#

but its not as simple as that

dull obsidian
#

"make busses illegal"

#

lmao

worldly hawk
#

literally nobody here cares

worldly hawk
#

go make a reddit post or something and stop beeing a dumbass

wicked blade

Just make raid loot one-time bestow (weekly), you have to earn 1 before earning 2 etc. and remove locks.
Crackdown on Bussing/Rice-accounts and bamn, game quality goes way up

3 shifts

worldly hawk
#

literally one employee that monitors the ingame PF

wicked blade
#

Monitor lobbies

low nebula
low nebula
#

you dotn need to police it 24/7 its not bots
its real people accounts on another side, they are not endless

#

they make news and shoot everyone next day by hand

#

day after that nobody would do it

wicked blade
#

If u ban few of them, that will start domino effect

#

I agree

worldly hawk
#

set an example maybe by banning known bussers

low nebula
#

nah

wicked blade
worldly hawk
low nebula
#

thats banning cos new law, its unconsitutional in all countries

#

you never get shot if something become illegal after you did it

wicked blade
#

Yup

low nebula
#

thats not how laws work, neither ingame TOS

#

at same patch where they make busing illegal and punished, fix jails automatically send rewards if you DC and they cleared/ or give tickets out

#

normal people would not care

#

cos those garbage fuck you systems there cos of busing

keen copper
low nebula
#

right now getting out of alaric gives you 3 tickets - one per gate

wicked blade
#

Cuz of bussing is dumbest yake possible

low nebula
#

so you can reset any of it and try again, join any lobby

wicked blade
#

Other games have busses

#

It is not LOA issue

surreal gyro
#

do u know why bussing became an issue?

wicked blade
#

Gold positive

surreal gyro
#

because they made T4 contnet much more easy

wicked blade
#

Ye, I dislike it aswell

surreal gyro
#

and now everyone can buss

#

this is a prime example

low nebula
surreal gyro
#

of no matter what AGS does, theere will always an abuse of some point

wicked blade
#

No, it is because Lost Ark is only game that I know of where taking a bus is a gold positive

low nebula
surreal gyro
#

no what im trying to say is

#

that there is never going to be a perfect solution

#

like for example ignite servers

low nebula
#

perfect is enemy of good, good is good enough for me

surreal gyro
#

or giving non-trsuted accounts the pwoerpass

swift tree
#

If raids locks weren't so stupidly done, there'd be enough people willing to just straight up HELP others that busses would be undercut but actual free runs

wicked blade
#

Usually busses are gold negative where u trade gold for progression.
In Lost Ark u get the progression and gold. U see the issue? @surreal gyro

surreal gyro
low nebula
wicked blade
#

Yup

#

Why risk jail

uncut dirge

PL was such a dumb idea

When u can just buy a bus

low nebula

if they not there to hit red counter we would clear kind of thing

wicked blade

people refusing to join normal lobbies because of PL crap is dumb

#

Thank SG for that

#

They quite literally incentivise and force people to take busses

low nebula
swift tree
#

yup

uncut dirge
#

like legit

#

we just had a full lobby

#

we are ready to go into normal brel

#

mix of 1680s and 1670s

wicked blade
#

No PL?

#

Denied

uncut dirge
#

and guy's like "lmfao nobody here has PL" and then left

wicked blade
#

People are denying PW aswell

And want PL/PB

Pw OMEGADANCE

surreal gyro
#

i dont know why people hate PL

uncut dirge
#

i saw him

surreal gyro
#

if they didnt have PL people would ask for x10

uncut dirge
#

he joined a 3/8 lobby

#

now waiting for 2 supps

wicked blade
surreal gyro
#

i had only 1 chara able to do brel on launch week and PL saved me from a lot of problems actually

wicked blade
#

Whoever has PL, instant deny.

surreal gyro
#

what?

#

xD

uncut dirge
#

they already ask x10

#

but PLs got to skip the x10

surreal gyro
#

yes

uncut dirge
#

just because they had a char at 1690 on the first 2 weeks

wicked blade
#

Lets be real, busses in LOA will always exist whatever u do

#

Because of gatekeeping standards

swift tree
low nebula
surreal gyro
#

x10 week1?

uncut dirge
#

it gets extra spicy when people use PL for raids like aegir and echid

swift tree
surreal gyro
#

thats just people being stupid

wicked blade
#

Ye, time gated title for whales

low nebula
#

bro just joined "g1-g2 reclear" hard lobby with mostly pls and outdpsed all bozos

wicked blade
#

Required for raids that are 50ilvls below

surreal gyro
#

PL wasnt a whale title

#

lmao

#

i got PL with pugs

low nebula
#

i got pl with pugs

#

week two was reasonable

#

week one is totaly whale run

surreal gyro
#

i got it week 1 but pugged 25h total

safe lark
#

PL is far from whale

#

xdd

low nebula
#

g1 is impossible

wicked blade
#

Good job, and what about people who don't have 1690 will all 8's?

#

Which is majority?

surreal gyro
#

nah it wasnt that bad

#

people needed more time to learn the patterns

low nebula
surreal gyro
#

on G1

wicked blade
#

It is time gated title. It is a fucking problem

uncut dirge
#

it's not a question of time

#

it's that a lot of people weren't there on ilvl requirements

low nebula
#

and i would be there

wicked blade
#

Echidna G1-G2 fast skip / PL

low nebula
#

on two chars now

wicked blade
#

Nice lobbies.

week 1 we cleared with upper end gear

#

no where near "whale level"

swift tree
#

"I didn't spend $200 to be at a certain item level within this 2 week period so I'm permanently ass-reamed by the player community because they are too stupid to understand how linear time works"

No books
Full 8
+22 wp average
on ilvl average

Yes i cleared G1 with pugs but we didnt have any whales

worldly hawk

#

just 1700s 8lvl gems and no books

if you couldn't clear week 1

that was a skill issue

can u explain to me

uncut dirge
#

ishy with the amazing takes again

surreal gyro
#

how steam charts helps your arguments?

#

legit explain to me

wicked blade
#

"Good enough" i would agree if it was not mmorpg

dull obsidian
#

I am too talking about difficulty

surreal gyro
#

Like why do we always go to steam cahrts to prove a point

#

if we had bots and it was 40k

#

what would be the point

@surreal gyro

BDO is beating us

low nebula
#

without jederiko g1 is really really hard

surreal gyro
dull obsidian
#

no it wasn't

surreal gyro
#

and its a very casual MMO

dull obsidian
#

What was hard was you all inting fucking patterns and spawning eggs

#

its prog

#

thats always what happens week 1

#

after everyone stop eating bullshit

#

the raid got 2x easier

#

even with no jederico

surreal gyro
#

^ true

swift tree
wicked blade
#

I will go chill out and WuWa and PoE2

dull obsidian
#

like had 99% of prog groups

wicked blade
#

Enjoy your LOA slop

dull obsidian
#

stopped eating every jump

#

the raid would be cleared

#

thats literally all it was

surreal gyro
dull obsidian
#

the jumps everyone ate with DR and eventually it gave more gauge than ephernia reducing gauge

swift tree
dull obsidian
#

so you started spawning eggs making 2nd shield literally impossible to break

wicked blade
low nebula
# meager hill ah sure, on hard on ilvl is w/e, but on nm it's ggs

well it makes sence right, 1670 is kinda expensive for garbage alt sup to get into, so sups which are there are contested with 1689 and who would accept 1670 instead.
Before wildsouls there were no issuess with sups on brel normal, i did x4 week two or three and keep bringing alts cos there was dps shortage
and then it flipped cos everyone made a blade/se/wildsoul and got insta 1670

swift tree
dull obsidian
#

you can hone to 1670 without doing AH

swift tree
#

I could but would rather do it via AH 1-10 after the adjustment

surreal gyro
uncut dirge
#

poe made content every 4 months

surreal gyro
#

u cant compare PoE to an MMORPG

swift tree
uncut dirge
#

and hit record numbers recently, while being like a 14 year old game

#

PoE and lost ark are VERY similar games

surreal gyro
#

ye but PoE is a seasonal game

#

Lost Ark is not

swift tree
dull obsidian
#

Don't think you can compare PoE and LA

#

wtf

surreal gyro
#

they are not

uncut dirge
#

they have an absolutely huge overlap in players

dull obsidian
#

seasonal game vs pure live service

swift tree
wicked blade
#

LOA is no more

#

I'm uninstalling

uncut dirge
#

league is just a massive game, so it makes sense to have overlap

#

poe definitely wasn't/isn't

dull obsidian
surreal gyro
#

There are PoE gamers that Enjoy Lost Ark that's true, but this dsnt mean the games are comparable

dull obsidian
#

PoE IS A SEASONAL GAME

surreal gyro
#

i have friends who came from PoE and this was their first MMO

uncut dirge
#

yes, poe is a seasonal game

wicked blade
worldly hawk
uncut dirge
#

and there's nothing preventing an mmo from doing the same

#

look at runescape

#

or wow

tall mango
#

I did my first guardian raid since i came back wahoo

dull obsidian
#

lost ark will never be seasonal gg

tall mango
#

It was nice

surreal gyro
#

Ok but why does lsot ark have to become

surreal gyro
#

what others are?

uncut dirge
#

i mean it's their loss if they never make it seasonal

surreal gyro
#

Lost Ark was always going to be a grinder* MMO

tall mango
wicked blade
uncut dirge
#

lost ark is not a rginder MMO though

swift tree
surreal gyro
#

what is it?

#

xD

dull obsidian
#

how is it not a grinder mmo?

tall mango
#

Deskaluda

dull obsidian
#

what

uncut dirge
#

lost ark's systems are a response to grinder MMOs

worldly hawk
uncut dirge
#

grinder MMOs are the ones where you can go farm mobs 24/7 endlessly getting loot

surreal gyro
#

huh

errant fable
#

Grinding all the mokokos

worldly hawk
#

what are you on about

dull obsidian
uncut dirge
#

lost ark has specific limits to how much you can "grind"

dull obsidian
#

but its pretty grindy

#

lol

#

you are spending hours a week for minimal gain

#

that is grinding

#

dailies

wicked blade
uncut dirge
#

early to late 2000s of KR MMOs were the grindy ariant

dull obsidian
#

raids

#

dailies

#

raids

uncut dirge
#

then they introduced limits to grinding like daily stamine and what not

#

turned out that increased player retention so it became much more common

swift magnet
#

give more stuff to do. not only raids šŸ˜„

low nebula
#

attention citizens

low nebula
tall mango
#

It's one per day right? It's a bit sad... I liked it

swift tree
wicked blade
uncut dirge
#

like 2005 KR MMO you go and grind 8 hours in a day gain 8% xp, then die and lose 2%

errant fable
swift tree
surreal gyro
#

that's just BDO

#

Grind comes in many ways, in Themepark MMOs like Blade and Soul / Tera / Lost Ark

storm bronze
uncut dirge
surreal gyro
#

Grind is doing dungeons weekly all the time to progrress

uncut dirge
#

lost ark is something else

tall mango
uncut dirge
#

it just turns out that when you put "reachable" limits on a game

surreal gyro
#

Its just a different type of grind

uncut dirge
#

people feel they have to do all of it to not fall behind

surreal gyro
#

what stops you from making 25 characters and farm chaos dungeons?

wicked blade
#

Guys, no Korean mmo doesn"t come close to Warframe grindfest

uncut dirge
#

whereas pure grind they are okay with dipping out and coming back when they feel like it

wicked blade
#

U can grind every day 24/7 for a year and not have everything

tall mango
#

Are those tradable from guardians?

uncut dirge
#

if chaos was as interesting as poe maps i'd do it

storm bronze
#

lost ark is 99% boring except raids Weirdga

swift tree
uncut dirge
#

it's wild to me that smilegate doesn't seem to get

tall mango
uncut dirge
#

that waiting for monster spawns that are absolutely no threat to you

surreal gyro
swift tree
uncut dirge
#

is not an interesting piece of gameplay

storm bronze
#

story in lost ark ? Weirdga

surreal gyro
#

Lost Ark story is goated

#

actually

storm bronze
real basin
surreal gyro
#

i bought the lore book

#

from KR

#

ā¤ļø

tall mango
surreal gyro
#

xD

uncut dirge
#

lost ark might have an interesting story to tell

#

but it's by far the worst GAME i've seen at telling a story

#

it's legit just a book

#

no gameplay involved in the story

storm bronze
#

looks like it has been written by a 12y old

swift tree
# storm bronze story in lost ark ? <:Weirdga:905213052276862986>

narrative driven i.e. it's designed and constructed via the themes and motifs used in the game's narrative.
shit like Guardian Raids being based on the Guardians waking up, Chaos Dungeons based on the Dimensional Rift,
Legion Raids being based on the Commander story arc in reawakening the Red Moon etc.

uncut dirge
#

meh people can like whatever story they like

#

i just don't like that there's no gameplay with the story

swift tree
uncut dirge
#

like all the story content is completely and utterly trivial

#

i don't think that's true

surreal gyro
uncut dirge
#

i died multiple times during wow story questing

#

mostly because it turned out some party quests were a bit hard to solo

#

but it could happen

swift tree
#

they don't just spoon-feed details, they build the game based around it.

uncut dirge
#

some of the quests also sent me into real dungeons

#

with real enemies too

#

lost ark has great combat

swift tree
uncut dirge
#

and story combat is "i cast 1 skill and the mob dies"

#

"i cast 3 skills and the boss dies"

surreal gyro
#

lost ark lore presentation remidns me of dark souls a bit

#

u find lore pieces around the world

#

the game dsnt tell u about them

storm bronze
#

the only piece of lore ik

#

is lailai

uncut dirge
#

i'm fine with that

swift tree
surreal gyro
#

i bought the lore book from KR

uncut dirge
#

i just want the lore to consist of fun gameplay

surreal gyro
#

and the amount of work

uncut dirge
#

like solo raid level content at least

surreal gyro
#

they have put in the lore

#

is insane

uncut dirge
#

give it a pity system where if you fail it gets easier

dull obsidian
uncut dirge
#

that's a great way of missing the next PL

dull obsidian
#

if you cannot clear the next raid with lvl 7 gems and LOS 30 on ilvl

#

idk what to say to you other than you're shit

#

lmao

surreal gyro
#

oh right

#

speaking of which

#

so now with Act 3 coming on early june probably

#

dont tell me u cant be caught up at 1700

#

and prepared

#

for the title week 1/2

tall mango
uncut dirge
#

hey

#

you know how soulfist has that red auto attack

#

instead of the usual blue or whatever

#

does the red one do any more damage

dull obsidian
#

the game is handing you an extra 200 leaps, 80k shards, 20000 blues and 10000 reds a week through just doing the raid

low nebula
dull obsidian
#

Not even including natural raid bound drop

#

Not even including raid gate boxes being bought

low nebula
dull obsidian
#

you hardly use it though

uncut dirge
#

oh yeah i know

dull obsidian
#

you use it once every 20s but no one does it

#

better to reposition

tall mango
uncut dirge
#

i just forgot about it since it's not been relevant to me since before the game launched

dull obsidian
#

and apply bleed/poison

low nebula
