I dont see perfomance based system as particulary good...

#

youre telling people "you cant play the game. btw good luck trying to learn. we are gonna gatekeep you"

#

you are creating an elitism that destroys a lot

polar torrent
#

youre talking as if there is only 1 learner at any given moment

lilac frigate
#

i think they have the right to play the game as well

polar torrent

#

the biggest issue, imo, isn't that you're wasting time, but that you're very likely impeding your progression

swift tree

Paradise

meager hill
#

having to chose on whether I help a friend prog brel but likely not clear for karma, or actually get my clear for karma sucks

swift tree

Heaven/Hell system is meant to be the alternative route

Paradise has yet to come out sadly

swift tree

#

still think they should rework solo mode to have a dynamic group mode, many many people would love to play the raids with their duo or trio

meager hill
#

they need to rework raids in general to have a dynamic group mode

swift tree
meager hill
#

and just roll solo mode into it

uncut dirge
#

I don't know if this is an ideal scenario

polar torrent
#

most people can clear raids just fine with lower gear, so yes thats true

uncut dirge
#

the people that perform poorly would still not be accepted

swift tree
#

taken a year of AGS and Tencent hammering Smilegate just to make a dedicated solo progression path and Korea lost their shit over it.

meager hill
swift tree
#

"rrr Diablo Game ughh"

uncut dirge
#

and i would bet that a lot of people that perform poorly can't really perform up to your high standards

#

even if they try to get better at it

meager hill
#

let me reword it, korea is frankly very stupid when it comes to healthy QoL for the game

uncut dirge
#

you'd basically be dooming them out of the game

polar torrent
uncut dirge
#

no, there's no "play with other people like them"

#

it's "they don't get to play the game at all"

swift magnet

Deathboi isn't exactly wrong with it being a way of being able to draw more accurate metrics, the debate becomes on where to set the line of "acceptable" uptime/dps performance. Which obviously depends on groups.
Don't expect efficiency chads to be lenient with their standards tho.

meager hill
#

korea can kick, scream and cry all they want, but they'll have to implement it sooner or later

polar torrent

or accept that the game is going to be abandonware with 100 people online at peak hours

i only have pm if after 30 min nobody accepts me i just go nm. cant be bothered with hm if i am solo and not palying with kat and friend

uncut dirge

#

except it wouldn't

#

everyone would be looking for your "1000 rating"

#

hell, if we go by the phrase of "pretty good"

#

then it's likely people would look for 1200/1400 performancec instead

polar torrent
#

maybe those 200 score people would TRY to improve then

#

this game has 0 feedback, people could be dead weight for YEARS and not notice it

swift tree
#

1200 whale + good player
1000 strong
900 whale + bad player
800 average
700 median
600 (actual raid requirement)
500 below requirement
450 being carried
To break it down further

600 is fine, 700-800 will be most people
people expecting 1000+ (and no doubt there will be) are shit for brains

#

In the current system players do, all the time.

polar torrent
#

or they actually wanna play the game a bit more so they intentionally take people who are slightly lower but still above the min score

uncut dirge
#

i think you guys severely overestimate how many very good players there are

swift tree
#

Or just dont care and know they're strong enough to carry the fight, but will still take bare minimum

uncut dirge
#

and underestimate how many 'bad players' there are

polar torrent
#

hm brel was starting to get boring, after my static pushed 3 more chars to 1690, now im having fun in hm brel again

i think everyone in my old static that played was above platinum in league at some point

#

hmmmm wasnt it guruanteed relic book from chaos gate bonus room? or chance to get one?

uncut dirge
#

maybe even diamond

swift magnet
#

got maxmp from gate bonus room

uncut dirge
#

we're talking the top 1-10% of the players

swift tree
#

Depends on if you view altruism as a sign of weakness according to your own worldview

vocal pollen
swift magnet
uncut dirge
#

if you want performance like that, you're cutting out almost everyone else in the entire game

polar torrent
uncut dirge
#

especially if you're adding on things like gear requirements

#

like this is a very high hurdle to cross

#

that's just not true

#

i'm saying that if you're looking for the top 1% of all players

polar torrent
uncut dirge
#

you're still segmenting the players

#

because not every single player in the game is going to be equally geared

polar torrent
#

why would you take the 1710 guy that apparently only does 90m compared to the 1690 who does 120m

uncut dirge
#

so you end up not looking for the top 1%

meager hill
#

ok but in lost ark skill is a big part of your damage

swift tree
#

Gear requirements are rather superfluous considering how better fleshed out global rosters are.

Only time when the aggregate scores will really matter is if an alt roster is applying with no cards/gems/skill points/stat bonuses have been earned

uncut dirge
#

but like a 0.25% of the playerbase

#

you are

#

you even literally said so

polar torrent
#

the top % people dont pug buddy

swift tree
#

Unless you're on an alt roster support account trying to rice farm you shouldn't be scared by a ZLOA score
(provided the party you're joining isn't completely batshit)

uncut dirge
#

they might not take their big character into a random party finder group, but they do open the group up for randoms to fill it

swift tree
#

can be a different story

uncut dirge
#

well, i'm not sure what they do these days

#

but back in akkan days i saw a bunch of esther players or other such that pumped real hard

swift tree
#

or guild semi-static

#

or a discord group that builds party 1 then pugs party 2

meager hill
#

I don't think enough esthers exist to make up a whole %

@sand marsh You ever see what happened to that Siderial Bard?

uncut dirge
#

it would be helpful to me

polar torrent
#

imagine if sidereal weapon was just 1 per roster, and you could shift it around your chars if you dont like your main anymore
and if it didnt cost and arm and a leg

uncut dirge
#

i'm just afraid that the "playing now" number will get even lower with that

#

because some players will never get good

swift tree
#

There was a Bard on Innana (was Vykas at the time) with a Siderial weapon

uncut dirge
#

no matter how hard they try

#

and if they then get extra gatekept for it they will leave

i'd rather not this situation get worse

#

go calculate how much life skill energy you get in a week

#

then calculate how many leaps you get per week

#

and how many fusions it would take to use up those leaps

swift tree
#

Don't lie, you're just busy enjoying the giant's feet

uncut dirge
#

without bots fusion price would be going up and up and up only

swift tree
uncut dirge
#

because a single roster doesn't generate enough life skill energy to make enough fusions for 6 chars

polar torrent
uncut dirge
#

great

uncut dirge
#

and how many thousands of leaps are you sitting on right now

#

bound

polar torrent
#

dunno, a decent amount

uncut dirge
#

we have such high demand for fusions

#

that even right now when we're flooded by life skill mats from bots

#

the fusion price isn't coming down

polar torrent
#

i have like 3k leaps unbound sitting around

uncut dirge
#

if we didn't have bots

#

EUC would probably be looking at 120-150g fusions

swift magnet
#

wait for adv honing 20-40 price day 1 will spike xD

vagrant cradle
#

I'm fine with that

#

I would be making bank

swift magnet
swift tree
uncut dirge
#

the issue is basically that

#

your roster generates a set amount of life skill energy, ergo a set amount of fusions

#

whereas you can have 1-6 characters that will require 1x-6x amount of fusions

swift tree
uncut dirge
#

i think the balance point right now

#

is at about a 3-4 character roster

#

so 5 and 6 char rosters will be eating extra fusions that others life skill with their small char rosters

swift magnet
uncut dirge
#

because i don't think we had this problem at the start of T3

uncut dirge
#

but it's just a combination of fusions needing the same amount of life skill mats

swift magnet
uncut dirge
#

but you getting fewer of them per craft

swift tree
uncut dirge
#

we used to get 30 fusions per craft, then 20, then 15, now 10

vagrant cradle
polar torrent
#

so your solution is to rely on bots instead of telling ags to make crafting fusions cheaper? lmao

swift tree
#

they chose to increase cost AND reduce output, instead of picking one

swift magnet
uncut dirge
#

bro, i'm telling you what's happening in the game right now

#

and has been happening for the past 6 months

swift magnet
#

kr palyers swipe for this mega honing pack

uncut dirge
#

and i think 120g per fusion might be underselling it

#

during the long period of time we didn't have many bots

swift tree
uncut dirge
#

EUC fusions actually increased to like 108g

vivid sentinel
#

@swift tree btw how goes the EU banning digital currencies in game ?

swift magnet
#

this could be a thing for him lol

uncut dirge
#

and i'm saying that this can be alleviated if there are more players who play like 1-3 chars

L game

uncut dirge

you can't really say that it's gambling, but it... is

uncut dirge
#

nah, a wargaming game

#

you don't buy a lootbox

You generate boxes but need to buy keys

uncut dirge
#

instead, the lootbox is already open

#

you know what you're buying

#

but the next box is RNG

vivid sentinel

@swift magnet but it still funny to see everyone 3 month ago linking YouTuber with video title something along the line of EU kill in game currency video

Your country didn't wait until 2010 to develop an R18+ rating, instead just banning any game that would qualify for that classification

don't have extras in your inventory by chance?

uncut dirge
#

i don't mean that you should get quest cape i mean that everything is quest locked

#

i think some of the quests in teh game are really cool but since i'm forced to do them

#

to unlock an area, it means i'm just opening up the guide and doing it as fast as possible

#

instead of doing it when i have time to enjoy it

#

it made me hate quests in the game

past ginkgo
#

Oh yeah just use quest helper

when i started playing

there was almost no area that required quest unlocks

# frail bridge I honestly don't even know how everything ties together at this point just that ...

tl;dr this one guy got a whole of a magical mcguffin that gave them godlike powers
to prevent anyone else from having this god-power, they broke it into 7 pieces so people had to fight each other
realising that some races could ally-up / surpass each other, they panicked, banished a god and their whole race from existence and then made a "Haha I win" 8th Ark needed to combine them.
War in this magical "ark realm" caused a rift with Petrania and both slowly eating away at each other made a realm of death called the Abyss.
Since the Abyss contains properties of both realms, gods are a thing, and the one for the Abyss is Kazeros

then an ability that slams the shield into the boss and sticks to the boss with the spike

Aegir is out of rotation when Strike raid releases

its w/e

not for people that have chars at 1660

burnt tree

thats their problem

regardless it doesnt matter

worldly hawk

which is a large % of the playerbase

burnt tree

if aegir is relevant or not

it should exist as a solo raid

i don't think so

aegir isn't hard to begin with

gatekeeping is ass

worldly hawk
#

people are delulu

burnt tree

they ask for 5 set when u need to do aegir to get 5set

you need like 30m dps for aegir normal

it doesnt matter

then you find people that accept you

idk i never had issues

and i pug everything

why do u need 1680 for HM Echidna

when a 1660 can clear it just as fast

worldly hawk

because people want to skip

#

1660 group can skip just the same

worldly hawk
#

no

#

i've never skipped in a 1660 group

#

because people lack hands

burnt tree

u dont need a full 1680 group either to skip

just 2 competent 1680s

worldly hawk

there is the issue

#

competent

#

the competent people have statics

burnt tree

i dont consider high ilvl = more competent

or go into 1680 only lobbys

thats such a dumb take

no one gives a shit about "now"

burnt tree
#

these numbers will go up by a lot with new AH

#

which u ignore desert since u speak about Now

#

when Strike Raid is in like September

#

we dont have relevant content that require anyone to be 1720 rn so it doesnt matter

past ginkgo
#

Yeh not like people will do 3 months of Mordum until then xD

#

Which is all of 21-30 or even 31-40

burnt tree
#

I mean what else ull do

past ginkgo
#

Yeh they will easily be 1720 for strike

burnt tree
#

Yep

All I ever get is chisel, I'm never lucky in that system, it takes 50 years to hone and it feels like you're making no progress until you're done with a piece

Burned out in January.. that ruined everything

Now I'm staying behind xd

While normal honing you just tap -> success -> dopamine -> level

Also adv honing takes way longer, gotta watch animation xd

And EU?

Probably worst

let me check again

europe is 190

Yeah just go NAW

is 175 too bad to play harder classes or in pvp?

You should probably not play high APM classes

and theres not even a powerpass going on right now, right?

past ginkgo

One thing they need to change though

thorny olive
past ginkgo
#

Is so you can craft orehas in SH with bound gold

wicked blade

#

They don't want you to be able to turn bound gold into unbound gold (crafting with bound gold, selling for unbound gold)

somber patrol

A lot of sea players play on nae

are there any classes that are low apm but have a lot of decision-making?

If you still haven't made your decision

honestly if you have 50k$ to spent lost ark is great

@thorny olive I mean I catched up to you guys who started day 1 but... I was carried by 1m gold embers and books in total and on top of that I also spend some money on 2-3m gold and 2m gold worth of mats

It's not really tied to "stats"

If you want a low apm class I'd recommend slayer probably

Both specs are pretty slow paced

Or come join us Deathblade mains

And avoid deathblade and arcana

# somber patrol what does this mean by spec? as in any class?

Some classes go full spec, some go crit or swiftness. typically the swiftness classes are very fast paced and spammy and dont have strict rotations, while the crit and spec ones are slower and have to build up their meter/gauge to be able to unleas ton of burst dmg in a small window of time.

wicked blade
past ginkgo
#

Might as well reroll tbh

I had to hotswap switch because I broke it

#

Fucking Deathblade

#

don't play GS or deadeye with high ping

thorny olive
past ginkgo
#

Yeah better to play stuff like Slayer on higher ping, way more forgiving

stark sky
#

Zerker and slayer are both good

somber patrol
#

from memory my favourite classes were deathblade and the demon assasin one hahaha

#

but I didnt get far in endgame

stark sky
#

Shadow Hunter is fine

past ginkgo
#

Shadowhunter is fine too

stark sky
#

wouldn't play deathblade though

stark sky
#

Perfect suppression is above average apm, but demonic impulse is on the lower end

thorny olive
#

Spec classes in general should be ok

#

Ignore blade

thorny olive
#

Ya :/

#

Some exceptions

stark sky
#

There's a lot of uptime heavy spec classes nowadays

And a surprising amount of downtime swift classes
