i still use the same layout for spells on my sorc

#

this is a few hours after servers came online (or i was able to log in at least)

fresh flint
#

wtf

sand marsh
#

i was a demon as a kid

neon cedar
#

Scamboi

sand marsh
#

i did all sorts of shit

#

I even ninja looted so hard I got banned for a few days

neon cedar
#

"as a kid" maps were 2 years ago

sand marsh
#

the server all knew who i was at that point

fresh flint
#

^

sand marsh
#

so i had to pay for a server swap

obtuse oyster
#

not LA

fresh flint
#

I used to watch the fuck out of videos of people ninjaing on wow

#

it was so fucking hilarious

sand marsh
#

its so funny xdd

fresh flint
#

the amount of rage

sand marsh
#

yeah haha

#

the rage on ventrillo

#

was cinema

fresh flint
#

Teamspeak days were NEXT fkn level

#

YES

#

VENT AND TS

obtuse oyster

A user has joined your channel

fresh flint
#

LMAOOO

obtuse oyster

A user has left your channel

uncut dirge
#

oh yeah

fresh flint
#

Dude

uncut dirge
#

@sand marsh did you literally never do any arena pvp

#

if you didn't know about space bar

fresh flint
sand marsh
#

When I ninja looted, the kind of slurs that were coming my way was crazy as hell. It reminded me of cod lobbies and making people mad was funny. I would ninja loot stuff I didn't even need or couldn't use

#

For the sake of making people mad

fresh flint
#

My interview for SMOD was on Teamspeak

fresh flint
#

Multibil orgi using TS for interviews

#

Shit was hilarious

uncut dirge
#

huh that's so weird to think about

#

first thing i did after getting to luterra castle was go into a pvp match

sand marsh
#

loa pvp always looked trash to me

#

the only mmo pvp i enjoyed was WoW

uncut dirge
#

we beat the shit out of them

fresh flint
#

the first and last time pvp ever mattered

uncut dirge
#

wtf

#

im missing like a whole week of recordings from the start of the game

#

that's sad

#

goes from february 9 to february 19th

obtuse oyster
fresh flint
#

trueeeeee

#

wait

#

i should get into pvp

obtuse oyster
fresh flint
#

i wonder what the winning charts look like

#

does that npc still exist

#

it does

spice kindle
#

@sand marsh will you be pushing fresh account again

fresh flint
#

what for?

#

he finished that series no?

uncut dirge
#

this was so "fun" in cube

formal frost
#

when slime island and medeia were a thing, i saw this person there every time

#

here's the mid june incident

fresh flint
#

Some SEs AND Db's really need to uninstall

#

(I'm the lv 6 gems...)

uncut dirge
#

oh no

#

i just remembered that i haven't done the quest yet

#

aaaaaaahhhhhhh

fresh flint
#

Me either, I do tomorrow

mystic basin
#

But no fusions

fresh flint
#

I've been 1720 for months

mystic basin
#

Oh

#

Well i was thinking of main swapping

fresh flint
#

From what to what?

mystic basin
#

Se to ws

fresh flint
#

How far is your ws?

uncut dirge
#

neither seems like a good choice

mystic basin
#

1680

#

But

#

But

fresh flint
#

Oof

mystic basin
#

They have 3k fusions

fresh flint
#

Doesnt matter, you're reaaaaally far off

mystic basin
#

And I have like 6k unbound leaps

#

So maybe

fresh flint
#

You AH 20 her already?

mystic basin
#

On 3 pieces

#

Tho I still have +30

obtuse oyster
mystic basin
obtuse oyster
fresh flint
#

3 pieces

#

What kinda fuckin honing did you do

mystic basin
#

I only started

uncut dirge
#

i do that too

mystic basin
#

Im out of gold

#

As far as mats go i have enough to finish i all just the gold

uncut dirge
#

i do AH in T3as far as it goes

mystic basin
#

Tho thinking about it again it probably won't be doable

uncut dirge
#

btw speaking of push immune

#

did you know that casting a sidereal also makes you push immune*

#

the asterisk is - sometimes

fresh flint
#

i just assumed it did ngl

uncut dirge
#

other times you get funny interactions like

#

if you cast it while brel is sucking

mystic basin
#

I found that out on early days of valtan

uncut dirge
#

it won't cast and you get instantly sucked in

mystic basin
#

Also 7hr maintenance

uncut dirge
#

yep that's why i gotta do quest now

mystic basin
#

Surely its not delayed

sand marsh
#

what quest

uncut dirge
#

the pre act 4 quest

sand marsh
#

ah wtf

#

i havent done it zzz

mystic basin
#

Dont think you need to

#

To do tge raid atleast

uncut dirge
#

man, aegir solo is so chill

ember solstice
#

anybody know if you need splendid sacred even for Kazz NM

sand marsh
#

nope

fresh flint
#

I don't think so no

uncut dirge
#

but you need it for hm?

sand marsh
#

boss will be deleted in NM with ark grid

#

yes u do for kazeros

#

splendid sacred bombs are better

#

for 4-2

#

at least now i'll have x6 kazeros to do per week

#

surely i can knock them all out week 1

ember solstice
#

o

sand marsh
#

@fresh flint will you be around on reset

ember solstice
#

okay so i bought some splendid sacreds for fun KEKW

ember solstice
#

i wasn't sure if i needed them even for nm

sand marsh
#

trust me you'll want them

ember solstice
#

do you just not get stun in nm or does it just not matter

sand marsh
modern hatch
ember solstice
#

2s immunity

sand marsh
#

yeah immunity

#

allowing you to greed blue telegraph pattern

ember solstice
modern hatch
#

O just like charms then

sand marsh
#

ehh, charms are a bit different

#

i prefer bombs since u can aim them

uncut dirge
#

For those ready to take on this challenge, you'll need to complete the Rimeria World Quest - Connected Duty, and Prelude Quest: Destined Trajectory, along with meeting the Item Level requirements of 1700+ for Normal mode or 1720+ for Hard mode.

#

from patch notes

#

so i think we do have to do the quest

sand marsh
#

god dammit

#

time to log in

uncut dirge
#

but im not sure what this rimeria world quest thing is

#

nothing shows up when i try to search for the name

modern hatch
sand marsh
#

that is the story

uncut dirge
#

yeah but how did they get the name wrong

sand marsh
#

they always call it that

#

"World Quest"

uncut dirge
#

"World Quest - connected duty"

#

i think it's "The Mission Continues"

fresh flint
#

yes

#

it is

neon cedar
#

Early levels of paradise tomorrow ew

#

Maybe I just throw for easy keys

modern hatch
obtuse oyster
#

real

west pivot
#

what is the connected duty quest for rimeria, is it MSQ?

neon cedar
obtuse oyster
#

understandable*

viscid sand
# sand marsh ehh, charms are a bit different

Splendid charms remove one of any cleansable debuff + short immunity to cc. Splendid sacred bombs only removes cc effects + short immunity to cc. The mains perk of having bombs instead of charms are range and hold limit afaik.

west pivot
#

confused cause I don't even see it lol

sand marsh
#

too much effort to try and minmax for ranking

west pivot
#

either that or it is named differently hm...

sand marsh
#

its msq. prolly named wrong

uncut dirge
#

err

#

zeherade has the adult voice over

#

but still looks like the kid

viscid sand
#

they forgot where their kid VO lived

modern hatch

at least keep the korean voice over then

There's a dlc for that iirc

When is maintenance?

#

weird no announcement yt

neon cedar
lunar stag
#

i am blind af

#

7 hours is not bad

astral ermine
#

assuming it doesn't go longer

lunar hedge
#

That's just the initial time

uncut dirge
#

i did the quest

#

watched all the cutscenes, read all the lines

#

1 hour+ quest

#

jesus

#

also the quest to search for is "Trajectory of Destiny"

blazing marlin
#

when is mt?

#

in 1 hour and a half no?

final gale
#

Anybody have a lsit of all the stuff that expire today that I need to claim/use?

formal frost
#

the strike/rimeria event shop is the one expiring

lunar stag
#

A part of me will miss it

formal frost
#

i only got 2 tries at hm, so in that way, yes

ebon snow
#

strike hm was a perfect homework really but nm a shitshow waste of time

formal frost
#

now that its over though, i have a confession to make. i never knew how to do that mech where people were calling out numbers properly, i just let everyone else do it

celest tiger
#

yeah calling mechs are very weird in this game

fresh flint
#

Cause wtf do you mean 7 - 2/6/8/12/52/77

formal frost
#

pretty much how i felt

fresh flint
#

And then when I looked at 7… 7 has a 6????

#

Which circle is 6….

#

Disgusting mech

formal frost
#

wish i thought of this while it was happening, should've made lobby titles "know mech hm reclear" then sit back and watch everyone else do it /s

#

basically what i did anyways

viscid sand
#

The funny part is that you can clear the mech in one cycle of orbs pepekek

#

So that mech actually has giga leeway

mortal burrow
#

any of the 6 inner hexagons can glow

#

and you cleanse those tiles and 2 of the tiles associated with it

formal frost
#

something that isnt junk for once

mortal burrow
#

basically the people who go inside step on their tile ( at 7, 11, 3) and they see that tile + 2 other tiles that are glowing on the outside

#

for example if i am 7, and i see 12 and 3 for instance

#

that is what 7 -12,3 means

#

it means if 7 is glowing on the inner set of tiles after we regroup, then we have to cleanse 7 in the inner side and 12,3 on the outer side

#

the gamba version is just cleanse the 2 inside tiles

#

and gambaing where the tiles might be on the outside

#

do you kind of follow? @formal frost

formal frost
#

barely

mortal burrow
#

basically, inner tiles has 2 outer tiles associated

#

people call them

#

and if u see the tile on the inside glow after we gather up again

#

call out that tile and the associated 2 outer tiles to cleanse

#

7 - 10, 12 just means

#

OH, in the inside I saw 10 and 12 on the outside glow when I stepped on 7

formal frost
#

ah

mortal burrow
#

and each person on the inside moves clockwise after they called the first set

#

so every inner tile is covered

#

so we know all the combos that it could be

#

for instance lets say i have 7-12, 3 and 9- 6,9

#

and only 9 on the inner side glows and some other clock position

#

so i would just repeat 9- 6,9

formal frost
#

i dont like mechs where i have to type, i end up making typos and cant send it in time, it fucked me up in old brel and i could never clear it except once

mortal burrow
#

so we would cleanse the glowing 9 tile on the inner side and we havce to cleanse

#

6 and 9 on the outer side

#

yeah..

#

at first the positions were really overwhelming

#

because i literally was having trouble telling from the 12 outer positions..

#

but i kept practicing and was able to succeed

#

but yeah... it's kind of a struggle sometimes..

#

@formal frost just know kaz also has a position type of mech

#

but it has 18 positions

#

although you will cheese it in hm and nm most likely

formal frost
mortal burrow
#

8 positon*

formal frost
#

dont you just hyper it

mortal burrow
#

ye

#

but if u do the first

#

you cannot hyper through it

formal frost
#

im not even close to being there

formal frost
#

whys it bleeding

cinder mango
#

I don't know, ask Kazeros

fresh flint
#

Yea that’s too much

#

Just ignore the mech honestly

cinder mango
fresh flint
high fog

hmm

#

kazeros doesnt look as bad as thammy to prog

#

g4 was just a matter of banging your head hard enough til you can tell if you're gonna get ragdolled or not

lunar stag
#

Gate 2-2 just look like so much pain omg

#

Like I can't see anything. This will be so hard to prog

#

And if you reset you go back to the start of gate 2 damn

viscid sand
#

ye it's basically like g4 thae YEP (which many people back in the day skipped OME )

wind dagger
lunar stag
#

It feels like you doing 2 gates for the reward of one

wind dagger
#

It is

viscid sand
#

like basically back in thae, you wouldn't know what actually happens without clearing g4 or going onto youtube

#

this is like the inbetween of it lul

lunar stag
#

but how isthat fixed? without doing hm you won't know what happens no?

viscid sand
#

you can still clear G2 in nm to progress your own "story"

#

you could not against thaemine

#

a lot of people settled with just clearing g3 and called it a day

#

i doubt many of the casuals even know what happens in the story for g4 thaemine

#

like how G3 isn't even thaemine himself but just a shadow clone OME

lunar stag
#

i am so confused what's the diff

viscid sand
#

basically, it's just so that you feel like you've actually "beaten the raid". instead of that thought that there is indeed another gate after.

neon cedar
viscid sand
#

it's just mental gymnastics

neon cedar
#

If you want easy do NM without the bonus fights

lunar stag
neon cedar
neon cedar
viscid sand
#

it's more so to keep in line with how Thaemine TFM was brought about except this time, the casuals can actually "clear" g4 albeit a baby version of it

lunar stag
#

why is gate 1 the mage fight seperate, while the brawler and god fight the same gate?

#

like there is straight up no reason to not make it 3 gates

viscid sand
#

mostly to make it thematic to how "TFM" is played out OME

lunar stag
#

i think that is the only answer tbh

neon cedar
#

What a lame ending to the finale of everything we've been building towards if the end was just the end

#

Lost ark has always have x0 mechs and stuff to surprise you at the end. You're only unimpressed because we've seen KR

#

Fighting the hardest raid ever only to learn there is another fight is extremely exciting

lunar stag
#

no no, keep 2-3 i don't care

#

just make it seperate, 3-1-2 no problem

#

why is that an issue?

neon cedar
#

If you don't care about 1 bonus fight then who cares about 2? It makes no difference

#

There is so much more to game design that you feel "convenienced"

viscid sand
#

like i said, casuals still get to fight "all gates" in nm, while the sweats get some semblance of preservation as to what TFM is.

lunar stag
#

Its just weirdly stractured, i don't care about diff, i will prog it either way, i just think 2-2 should have been gate 3 and people who can't clear it, well they can just learn it

viscid sand
#

the only diff is that g4 thae is biweekly(?) GuraThonk

lunar stag
#

i understand that people wnat to clear all gates and not be stuck with a missing achievement of not defeating kazeros

#

by the way

#

kinda of reminds me

neon cedar
#

Slapping a another obvious gate on the UI ruins all the shock value to fighting THE boss of the whole game. Nobody would care about the end of gate 2

lunar stag
#

if you didn't clear gate 4 10 times you didn't get the thaemine title?

neon cedar
#

Just like you don't care about g1

viscid sand
#

in the devs' eyes, you're either a casual or a sweaty tfm racer PepeLa they have long since looked at the "almost top1%" players

lunar stag
#

damn

viscid sand
#

you get lightqueller from g3, not CoS, no? Susge

neon cedar
#

Sure, but nobody treated cos at THE raid title

#

That was extra

viscid sand
#

they did for g4, just that not many did g4

#

but that's a different thing altogether

fathom cloak
neon cedar
#

For 1 gate. Im talking about in general

viscid sand
#

you 100% had to have COS or minimum Darkness Legion Commander for people to consider you for Eclipse runs

neon cedar
#

Okay, now we're getting even more niche

fathom cloak
#

Keklipse orangexdd

viscid sand
#

but that's not what marionette was asking tho Susge

neon cedar
#

Yes for a single very specific fight people want the very specific title

viscid sand
#

the thaemine title can also be anything

#

which title are you talking about @lunar stag

#

lightqueller, darkness legion commander, conqueror of stars, eclipse

lunar stag
#

gate 4 title?

viscid sand
#

Legion Cmdr

#

ye, so you definitely WOULD NOT get COS without clearing g4 5x

lunar stag
#

hmmm

#

actually now i think about it, e going know in few hours, but does hm has spesfic titles? for kazeros

viscid sand
#

yes

#

someone posted it before

#

am laze to find it

#

but there are also milestone titles like beat 2-1 or smt, i cant rmmb the specifics

lunar stag
#

Bro if it isn't Demon god slayer i will be mad

neon cedar
#

Kazeros has a bunch of titles associated with it

lunar stag
#

as it should be

neon cedar
#

3 frontier ones. The usual 10 clear. Ones for doing secret sides. Ones for reaching bonus gates

lunar stag
#

why do people use frontier title for mordum as a basis to gatekeep or not? seems weird

viscid sand
#

ultimately, because they can

lunar stag
#

don't you get the title after 1 clear?

#

compared to the 10 clears title?

viscid sand
#

indeed.

neon cedar
#

Same reason any title is gatekept. It's a symbol of your achievements. The rarer the title, the harder the achievement, likely the harder you had to work for it and the better you are at the fight

viscid sand
#

1 clear of the "hardest weeks" of the raid

mortal burrow
#

so it doesnt really mean anything

#

for hm

viscid sand
#

BOMB DELIVERER COMING THROUGH

neon cedar
#

People with Lord of Thunder did the fight at it's very hardest right away. No waiting for more resources, or nerfs etc

lunar stag
#

ohhhh

#

I thought they are done with that no?

#

now we always getting nerfs at the start of theraids?

neon cedar
#

No, act 4 and Kaz both have frontier stages and titles

lunar stag
#

oh i see damn, i will grab those

neon cedar
#

Gotta do HM week 1 or 2 then

#

Kazeros

lunar stag
#

hm? Damn, i need to get 1730 fast then

neon cedar
#

If you do the hardest one, stage 3 you get all the titles. Stage 3 & 2 are orange ones while Stage 1 is a blue title. Every 2 weeks there are raid nerfs and it moves to the next stage

#

If you clear week 3 you dont get the first title

#

Thats why people gatekeep Lord of Thunder

native copper
#

how much dps do we need to do 100bar in 50 seconds to skip full team meter pattern?

#

in 2-1

neon cedar
lunar stag
native copper
#

i mean hard mode

lunar stag
#

probably a lot, but from what i saw, people clear it before ihim doing the 2 mechs at the end

#

but that with ark grid being out for a while

neon cedar
viscid sand
#

That... Doesn't tell us much ICANT

sand marsh
#

wtf i got stun by a bee

neon cedar
#

skill issue

sand marsh
neon cedar
#

Oh in game, lame

viscid sand
lunar stag
#

isn't sub 300 million damage low? for hm kazeros? i don't know, i felt like 1730 characters would do more damage on avg

sand marsh
#

yeah it is

viscid sand
lunar stag
#

wait, wtf? this has to be cap no?

viscid sand
#

Pls read the notes in that infographic

lunar stag
#

like 0 bars phae takes half a billion damage per second?

neon cedar
#

Read more than the dps number

lunar stag
#

ohhhh

neon cedar
#

These are numbers before stuff like sidereals or buffs from mechs and you regain time as part of the fight

lunar stag
#

but isn't failing one of those mechs a wipe? even if you have 500m damage?

viscid sand
#

Play better as a team then clownass

neon cedar
#

Failing might not trigger a wipe. But if you're failing than there is a skill issue that guarantees a wipe

viscid sand
#

It's very much a team oriented fight

neon cedar
#

Maybe down the line when the raid is nerfed, it's hw and people are way over geared it won't matter but for now you won't be clearing without gaining time

lunar stag
#

i find the sacrifice pattern so funny lmao

sand marsh
#

for example, min dps for normal mode kazeros is 211mil dps with that logic

#

this doesn't apply to hm though since that min dps is mathematically impossible

#

would prolly refer to 6c/7c min dps

paper scroll
#

7hr maint, jover

cinder mango
lunar stag
#

Damn, i still can't believe kazeros is in 7 hours

wind dagger
#

I'm still work

uncut dirge
#

i forgot to do a solo aegir

#

woke up with 12 minutes left

#

started the last stagger with 20 seconds left

#

was able to finish in time

#

like 5 seconds before servers shut down

safe lark
wind dagger
#

I didn't even bother doing these bound gold raids

#

Zzzz

uncut dirge
#

i think aegir solo is pretty good

#

it's a lot of gold while being fast

#

and being unbelievably more chill than the raid itself or its alternatives

swift tree
#

Even before they changed certain mechanics it was a good solo raid

swift tree
#

2-1 is the one with big raid wipes

light vigil
#

do you guys think Act 4 HM week 1-2 frontier title is worth pushing for? I'd have to buy shards and fusion and dump literally everything to try it and get it. I'm 1702 right now

I'd be screwing over my alts and everything else just to get it if I decide to do that. I'm just not sure if its worth it. open to opinions/thoughts

cinder mango
wind dagger
#

nm is the play , then go hmSusge

#

?

lunar stag
#

i thikn the hardest one would be 2-1 2-3 title for final act

wind dagger
#

Yeah

lunar stag
#

on your main?

#

wht's your main cp?

#

i would just go hm tbh, for act 4

#

but final act hm gate 1 normal g2

wind dagger
#

I'm only 1710.83

lunar stag
#

then you can't even do hm

wind dagger
#

Yeah

#

Nm first, then hm

cinder mango
#

AGS : no kazeros, you loser

light vigil
#

or would title not even end up mattering

errant fable
#

I gonna make act4 nm with 1740

cinder mango
viscid sand
#

the title is mostly vanity after the fact. the luxury of it dies out over time. It might help if you're planning to go for tfm down the line though, but im sure you can still find groups without it.

uncut dirge
#

even this week i saw a bunch of title lobbies in mordum and brel

viscid sand
naive lion
#

Title will make the pug life easier, thats for sure

sand marsh
#

the only frontier title that'll likely matter is 1730 HM kazeros one

light vigil
bitter inlet
#

Actually the correct move is to spend your life’s saving to hit 1730 and reach the min combat score requirement

sand marsh
#

pushing to 1720 to chase act 4 hm title when it's pretty easy, is not worth it if u ask me lmao

#

how much 1700s do u have

light vigil
#

1

sand marsh
#

prolly just 1 if i had to guess

light vigil
#

alts at 1670 1680

wind dagger
#

1700 is the play FeelsDankMan

sand marsh
#

I mean you should be pushing your main to be honest

#

But if it's 1700 with like, minimal investment, chasing ilvl is a bad idea.

light vigil
#

my 1680s cant even raid cause gems are so expensive

sand marsh
#

ilvl isnt everything. you need what comes with it

light vigil
#

so they're rat

#

by everyone's standards

#

karma is slow af too

sand marsh
#

level 6s at 1680 is perfectly fine. and most 1680s dont have karma

#

abuse paradise for karma free taps if u get em

cinder mango
#

hello dboi

coral hull
#

Where gnarly

sand marsh
#

hi

coral hull
#

Hi db

light vigil
#

if i push 1720 it'll solely be to get title to make my life easier if thats a thing

#

cause before I got abyssal it was rough

#

I barely ever got accepted solo

swift tree
light vigil
#

Beato on NA

sand marsh
#

with mordum u can get brel potions pretty easily

#

since u can transfer them to brel

light vigil
#

karma on main is fine now (finally) thanks to the events and raiding each week

#

not finished, but fine

sand marsh
#

Yeah I would not push this to 1720. Your accessories need a bit of work

#

And armor quality too (less important but it helps).

light vigil
#

but like we're talking about 2 different things, no?

brittle hawk
#

but we will struggle getting into hm parties no matter what

light vigil
#

even if I hit 1720 as long as I clear HM once idm doing NM

brittle hawk
#

i hate frontier

light vigil
#

im worried about making my life easier from gatekeep

sand marsh
light vigil
#

for the next 3-6+ months

brittle hawk
#

we are screwed by design now

sand marsh
#

That's my point.

Did you guys Finish 30 Earth Set with the saved selectors or you stay at x24 and save em scrajj_r

You are not getting into act 4 hm with a 1720 looking like that. Just being real.

I'd stick with normal mode.

genuinely what made them think this is a change for the better

light vigil

yeah I mean I have friends who could help, or get bus

sand marsh

... please dont buy a bus

light vigil

playing lobby sim will just make me quit the game if people are gonna expect new titles on older raids

sand marsh

There's more people than you think who don't have a 1720 main.

cinder mango

Maybe push to 1710 and uh, use the rest of the gold on accessories and whatnot?

#

1710 is kazeros nm i think

sand marsh
light vigil

I forget but I thought I was all mid/mid or high / 0

I Will not do kazeros hm, im so busy to do It

Maybe some day

isnt the next upgrade omega expensive?

sharp rock
sand marsh
#

At least high/low or high/mid lol

sand marsh

You may get away with it but like, week 1 will be brutal most likely lol.

#

Gems aren't looking good either, only 1 level 8. But gem prices are expensive.

viscid sand
light vigil
#

again I wouldnt really care about week 2+ in the short term, cause if I miss title then im just gonna be on x10 clear title in like 3 months

sand marsh
#

Yeah not during frontier for sure.

light vigil
#

which is gonna feel ass

#

and I have friends who could help for 1x clear on week 2 if I can make it there

swift tree
#

Frontier Titles making game worse ngl

sand marsh
#

So x10 is not going to happen for a lot of people.

#

They'll ask you to link achievement clear.

I didn't get echidna x10 title until like a month later lmao

“Sorry you need X title from week 2 of raid release ot prove you can clear a boss with health/damage nerfe”

If I were in your shoes I'd push to 1710 so you can at least do Kazeros.

u can download

even if I push kazeros I dont think im 2k cp

ilvl isn't everything since you need things that are accompanied with ilvl.

before I got abyssal from mord it sucked hard

I'

pulsar owl

My 1710 has 1700 cp not sure if i can get into nm with that 💀

going from mid mid to high low is kinda stupid value wise and expecting high mids from a 1720 is crazy lmao

cinder mango
sand marsh

I'm confused how you are roster level 300 with a roster like that. But you probably quit a few times here and there if I had to take a guess.

I played for 2-3 months on release

and came back 3 months ago

surreal gyro
swift tree
sand marsh
#

Oh god lol.

You can either chill at 1700 or push to 1710. I'd accept that for Kazeros NM personally. Not many 1710s over 2k cp to be honest.

cinder mango

I only say 1710 so you can get experience with Kazeros. Raid experience matters more than anything else imo.

this second week bullshit is reddit-pill nonsense

tawny lion

On naw it is true

sand marsh

It's not.

surreal gyro
#

in EUC we had plenty of groups pugging Week 2 for Act3

sand marsh
#

You overestimate how many people have x6 characters at the raid item level on release.

#

It's becoming even more expensive with each raid release.

surreal gyro
#

an d this time we have 2x raids so i think its gonna be even more people this time

sand marsh
#

I don't lol. I know many people who play on NAW.

tawny lion
#

But I’m glad we merged with Nae so that’s good

sand marsh
#

You probably just play with people who expect that.

viscid sand
#

depends on what your metric of "decent" groups is tbh pepekek i've done title-less mordum hm runs during week 3+ and they've mostly been fine despite the scuff

sand marsh
#

But the average lost ark player does not have a roster like that.

#

You'd have to be a vet who basically never quit, or bus. Or god tier luck. To have a x6 roster of 1710 and a main at 1730/1740 lmao.

viscid sand

I don't even have x6 1710s. I'm close, but technically not there.

ye june @light vigil

sand marsh
# pulsar crow didnt know deathboi was a SH main

Started out at berserker until akkan. Main swapped to shock scrapper. Then main swapped back to berserker shortly after. 1 month after voldis release I rage honed paladin to 1620 and main swapped to paladin. Since then I slowly benched all DPS chars to a full support roster.

light vigil
#

support stuff so cheap

viscid sand
#

which is why we have started to gatekeep rat supports clownass

sand marsh
#

It is. But main swapping isn't cheap either.

viscid sand
#

spend your gold, BOI

light vigil
#

silly me for not going 6 chars of the same class

#

💀

sand marsh
#

Don't recommend main swapping lol. If I never main swapped my roster would be better.

#

Last time I attempted to main swap was Valk release.

#

Which I deeply regret.

#

Never doing it again lol

viscid sand
#

for the content 😔 😔

bitter inlet
#

if i went 6x of the same class i'd die of boredom

sand marsh
#

Fortunately I'm an anamoly that enjoys playing support. And Paladin is the only one I enjoy.

#

I don't get bored of it personally.

bitter inlet
#

yeah to each their own

pulsar crow
#

i have 9 characters, all different and my valk just surprassed my summoner

fathom cloak
bitter inlet

its just not for me

viscid sand
#

i had 3 same class at some point, and 1 of them has been killed off alienwow

bitter inlet
#

especially with ark grid which introduces new toys

sand marsh
#

Yeah I can see why. It's a much different playstyle.

#

What keeps me going is meter tbh.

#

And a really good support is hard to come by. Pair that with a great dps and it becomes pretty fun.

wind dagger
#

Play two classes

#

I'd play like

#

3 valkyrie and 3 scrapper

#

In an alternative time line...

sand marsh
#

I really don't like Valkyrie. And the other supports are a hard pass for me.

#

Imo paladin is just superior to them all. Very flexible.

pulsar crow
#

whats wrong with her

sand marsh
#

Her ceiling is just not it for me. Low identity gain.

#

Feel like I'm playing a paladin 3 blue build.. which is only ever used in bussing lmao

wind dagger
#

The did that for the perma dps buff valkyrie gives is what I think

#

Gotta balance

sand marsh
#

There is no perma dps buff wdym

viscid sand
#

i think her first few idens is fine then she just runs out of steam for a bit kekw

sand marsh
#

Well that's the issue. Paladin generates way more. And the downside of blessed aura is nonexistant with how massive it is now.

#

There's just no excuse to make it that slow. Smilegate is dented.

wind dagger
#

I remember something about that

viscid sand
#

this is a persistent buff

wind dagger
#

Yes that one

sand marsh
#

20% of release light base effect is... not much at all lmao

wind dagger
#

That's a buff for dps right FeelsDankMan

pulsar crow
#

thats for when youre support no?

sand marsh
#

yeah

ancient oasis
viscid sand
sand marsh
#

If the two big red skills had 2 stacks with a lower cooldown, then it would be on par with paladin

viscid sand
#

pretty sure that was their thought process making the back-to-back iden seem more scuff for valk

ancient oasis
#

i mean a perma uptime 3-5% buff isnt bad

sand marsh
#

but smilegate aint gonna do that.

viscid sand
#

rain is getting 2 stacks

sand marsh
#

yeah but i dont believe thats with the support tripods.

viscid sand
#

it is

pulsar crow
#

what about the HA technique buff of 20%

viscid sand
uncut dirge
viscid sand
#

it's the same line as the piety gain with -cd which is what the supports take

sand marsh
#

If it is, it's a step in the right direction, but would still be on par with a 2 blue paladin build.

#

The other skill would need to be 2 stacks as well

#

And CD lowered.

uncut dirge
#

Anyway what's the point of making jewels untradable

#

But then just sell them in the F4 shop?

sand marsh

Because $$?

viscid sand

im sure you've answered yourself deep down already

sand marsh

And they aren't selling much of it lol.

Aren't we just fucking over the f2ps

Look at how much the packs give man

sand marsh
#

It's not much gems lmao.

uncut dirge
#

Now we can't, but whales just print new gems instead

viscid sand

if anything, it gives "legit" whales an avenue to spend instead of rmters buying out the market OME at a limited rate

If it's an irrelevant amount then don't sell them in the first place

there is no fair economy

And that's just this pack

sand marsh

The two packs shown here are the only one that sell the gems

#

Which is X purchase limit per account.

pulsar crow
#

low low price of a few hundred bucks

sand marsh
#

When you have a bunch of 1700s+ doing dailies and whatnot, and combining them to roster bound, this pack will look like a joke if you are only going for the Gems.

high fog

Isn’t 9500 a bit under 100 bucks

sand marsh

over estimated it

uncut dirge

but buying for the gems is stupid

you'll generate quite a bit if you have a x6+ roster

It’s definitely more than 500

you cant rmt astrogems but uh

like i said, astrogems will become pretty abundant if you have a decent roster

it's the cores that'll be annoying

Ark crystal chest = cores?

no

the smaller gems

not cores

viscid sand

if it was cores, and they were selling ancient ones

pretty sure

a ton of people would quit

Idk what rmt prices are these days but the pack compared to the older ones we’ve gotten isn’t the worst

not easy to get, even in KR

I kinda hate the way it works tbh

The diff between highrolling one early

Lol

sand marsh

Yeah it's silly

Fortunately, relic vs ancient isn't that massive

It's legendary vs relic

that is a big leap

All you need to focus on, is getting relic cores.

uncut dirge

But it's like 1 vs 5 vs 50 or some shit

And diff between relic vs ancient is like uh

A friend of mine considered trying to sell his account

I never understood the concept of "im gonna quit this game, let's sell my account or ingame items to recoup my money spent". I've never, ever seen it so prevelant in any community except for Lost Ark.

I've quit like one game before where I actually decided to quit

Funny enough, I think if I sold everything I would be positive, minus the like 10000 hours xd

Gems should be tradeable until you use them

And just keep increasing the max level

It's absurd that 1700 chaos gives less than 2x the gems that 1520 chaos used to

lunar stag
uncut dirge

Almost a 3 year difference in the game's progression

Big upside is if I ever quit LA or the game dies and I go back to WoW, I can log in and just jump into semi-endgame content without playing lobby sim.

i think wow raids were impressive when they came out

but for some reason they didn't evolve

uncut dirge
#

The problem is that the game pretends to have an economy

paper scroll

the way this game is gonna die now is alts cost more and more so ppl have less alts = less play time = ezier 2 quit just logging on for 3 hrs aweek finish raids on 1-2 char and jump off

Maybe I enjoy the game too much, but it's sad to see people quit and sell there stuff or give it to friends. Just contributing to one part that makes the game unbearable lmao.

Well MMO pvp has never been good besides the early WoW days imo.

I remember the first time I played Aion and tera though

LA seriously ramped up raiding, at the time gw2 was like the preliminary LA when it came to comabt and raids

then LA mastered it

What blew me away was the background on the distance

It made the world look huge

Because before then we didn't really have much render distance in games

Yeah LA raids are nice, but the downside is you can't experience those raids without many many hours of playtime.

With these other MMOs, getting to that point takes much less time.
