last hit does like ALOT of damage

dull obsidian
#

almost a 2% dmg increase

worldly hawk
fresh flint
#

My hunger reaper hungers for the damages

dull obsidian
#

idk

#

what your char is

fresh flint
dull obsidian
#

oh bornforfloor

#

send the uwuowo

fresh flint
#

Ye

dull obsidian
#

my hands are oily

fresh flint
#

Sec

dull obsidian
#

I'm eating chicken

worldly hawk
#

yeah this is fine

dull obsidian
#

why do you haev mass increase books first

#

that was the first thing I noticed

fresh flint
#

It was cheapest

dull obsidian
#

really?

fresh flint
#

XD

#

Yeah

dull obsidian
#

ambush is more dmg than mass increase

#

because the "outgoing" part is a low number

worldly hawk
#

@dull obsidian i have 119% crit rn when master is stacked once i buy the other H/M for my ring i'll have 120 again

fresh flint
#

Well it was cheaper a few weeks ago. Now ambush is cheaper than MI after I already finished it

dull obsidian
#

and you're increasing it by 2.7%

kind lotus
#

@swift tree ||"kazeros is not antares, its just a creation of regulus. You guys can't fathom the power of gods, kazeros is not even close to being as strong as one of the main seven gods. Maybe we should consider releasing a raid for every god. - Gold River||

dull obsidian
#

you're literally just the same issue as desert

#

take off pulverise on put on master

worldly hawk
fresh flint
#

I see

dull obsidian
#

pulverise and BT don't go together

#

BT gives WAAAY to much evo dmg

worldly hawk
#

i also did this in my armoche yd

dull obsidian
#

other than that...

fresh flint
dull obsidian
#

Ithink you just need to increase cpms..

worldly hawk
#

and the number was white last hit didn't even crit OMEGALEPSY

dull obsidian
#

you score might go up like 1-3 with just the ark passive change

#

but everything else relies on you learning the raid

#

and adjusting your rotation to what the boss is doing

worldly hawk
#

i don't even know what good asura casts are now with the stamina reset grid

fresh flint
#

Yeah my cpm is shit. Everything phases too fast

dull obsidian
#

also

#

what is your crit rate

fresh flint
#

I can’t even parse on kazeros without him going to the next phase

#

It’s kinda ass

#

I dunno I’m at work

#

I think I am slightly above cap. Like very slightly.

dull obsidian
#

I have a feeling

#

your build is very wrong

#

..

#

idk why

#

I'll ask around

fresh flint
#

It’s not

#

Well shit idk anymore

dull obsidian
#

the issue with your build is

#

you are literally playing 0% downtime

#

if you aren't matching anywhere near this

#

this build doesn't work

#

I think for you

#

you are running around

#

let me calc some stuff

fresh flint
#

I understand that. But in most lobbies with this build. Bosses just move too much or completely phase before I can get a few rotations off

dull obsidian
#

I think you need to drop

#

3-4 points of swift into spec

fresh flint
#

Oh yeah

#

I’m supposed to have like 4-6 into spec

dull obsidian
#

what the fuck is your bracelet

#

lmao

#

0 stat 3 lines

worldly hawk
dull obsidian
#

according to my math

dull obsidian
#

9 crit
4-5 Spec
26 Swift

#

should be your stat in ark passive

#

looking at how you have a high crit rate brace

#

you can run 8 crit 5-6 spec 26-27 swift

#

just find your comfort

#

Swap Pulverise -> Master

fresh flint
worldly hawk
#

this game sucks fat cock

fresh flint
#

Oh @distant swallow what did you tag me for last night

dull obsidian
#

also isn't rage spear your slowest skill

#

why doesn't it have a galewind

#

its also your top dmg

#

you need a galewind o nthat

#

well top dmg red

kind lotus
worldly hawk
bleak zinc
dull obsidian
#

also

#

holy shit you are running C/J ontop of ALL OF THIS?

#

bro is negative downtime

dull obsidian
#

I would recommend just slotting more galewinds/QR

#

jsut to get your shit off faster

#

C/J is almost never worth it anymore

#

I can't think of a class that runs CJ other than drizzle aero

fresh flint
#

Idk fam I just follow nexus and then I ask streamers

dull obsidian
#

I'm comparing you to the reapers who have high UDPS for their combat

#

you're just lagging behind in CPM

#

and soem dmg numbers

#

but thats because your ark passive is not optimized

elder stratus
#

How much will it cost aproximatly, the new class on Feb to hone at 1730 week1/2? In G....

dull obsidian
#

1730?

#

too much

#

you're heavily shard gated

#

like.. really heavily shard gated

#

you needed to start buying shard packs months ago

elder stratus
#

Have 1 mil shard and 2.5 mil gold rn

dull obsidian
#

yeh you're cooked

#

you are looking around 11m shards to go raw to 1730

#

lol

elder stratus
#

I mean the push event pretty much guarantees 1700 for kinda free

dull obsidian
#

yes and guess where everything gets expensive

#

AH 21-40

elder stratus
#

You mean server? Eu

dull obsidian
#

he is talking about new class

#

so 0

#

lol

elder stratus
#

4 1700 1 1720 1 1680

elder stratus
dull obsidian
#

@fresh flint I'd say with your current build if you wanted to get maybe around 75-80 score

#

you'd literally need to increase your cpms by like

#

50-60%

#

lol

#

maybe that'll push you to 90

#

like the really good reapers have about 175-200% your cpms on some skills

Elpon themed

#

They literally color code everything to do with specific gods and Kazeros is Antares color coded

#

Just means they’re not same person

#

Allegedly getting more Haal/Anty answers in Act 2

I mean Brelshaza being Haal themed and her being mentioned is sussy

We must free her after Serca pensivewobble

but that doesnt explain the trauma she had in the raid

as the part she experiences her execution isnt actually something the MC sees

theres still hope

If Gods go to War with Chaos Primordials…

they will probably get involved

#

Echidna sending Serca to steal a Sirius artifact after sending Darkiel after Gineah’s

That may not have been to do with Kazeros

"Changing LOA's engine to UE5 is a VERY difficult project, but they're working on improving the graphics." so theres a chance COPIUM

swift tree

They’ll just keep improving lighting etc

Don’t need to switch engines to adopt new tech, just makes it way easier

improving models like they did with the sidereals

Lost Ark is cheap to maintain

oh bet

just insane metric

since its 5x 115k

Isn't it like 3 or 4 level 8 gems if you get it

Way better value

But yea nether floor 100 is a hoax

nether floor 100 is also like 10billion gold worth of books if you get lucky

So what was the livestream about except lore

uncut dirge
#

i need one 3-4

zenith canyon
#

except lore was LORE

uncut dirge
#

i've been looking for it for 3 weeks now

#

for this char

#

and i still haven't gtot that 3-4 so i can't change builds

#

ffs

#

wouldn't it be cool if you could like buy gems off the fucking market

#

i get a blue, i try to cut it

devout nymph
#

you can funnel astros for abit of a premium price though

uncut dirge
#

first 4 cuts have literally no effect on reds or blues despite them being 50% of the options every time

burnt tree
#

also hes working on another lost ark game for console

devout nymph
#

todays fused astros were +2 blue and +6 greens or something

distant flax
#

Console Susge

wintry depot
#

I see

#

So nothing important

uncut dirge
#

except you need all those 8 cost greens on the other chars too

#

i guess i'll just buy the 43k box for a 3rd week in a row then

#

oh it's fucking distortion

#

a worthless gem

#

gg

vagrant cradle
uncut dirge
#

whomever decided to make astrogems untradable

#

is a fucking moron

vagrant cradle
#

just get lucky

devout nymph
#

if you keep funneling them around you dont really need greens

vagrant cradle
uncut dirge
#

and then it'll feel fine

devout nymph
#

jsut finish order ones first and blue ones can be done forever

#

i dont have any issues with astrogems besides em eating up all the gold, but then again

#

i also had 3x 40 set with purple elixirs so

#

a tiny bit biased opinion

#

if anyhting cores are ass

burnt tree
# wintry depot So nothing important

just say it doesnt interest you. It peaked at 85k views aka time NA sleeps, EU is at work. lmao

Anyway he said UE5 for Lost Ark would be hard, and that UE3 has been revamped to be more like a lost ark engine, and showed some cutscenes of how the game would have looked without the changes SG did to UE3.

uncut dirge
#

oh yeah did i mention

#

i used a reroll ticket on every blue stability gem too

uncut dirge
uncut dirge
#

a better engine might give you better paintbrushes

nothing important for me

#

but you still gotta paint a prettier picture with them

devout nymph
#

now that some cookery, blowing 15k ticket on a avg 4k cost gem

wintry depot
#

thought he would announce more things about the game

#

thats all

uncut dirge
#

i guess i can just wait another 2 months before i get to play a built i'd actually enjoy

devout nymph
wintry depot
#

i think what is more annoying than ue3 is eac anyway

devout nymph
#

thats the cost of fusing 3 greens

uncut dirge
#

that's great

burnt tree
# wintry depot thought he would announce more things about the game

he revealed that he worked on some narrative related stuff and the finale and songs. But otherwise hes working on that new lost ark game, he set it aside to make sure the lost ark finale would be good, but he still remains a lost ark consultant[ and only involves himself with the PC version not mobile]

IF YOU HAVE GEMS

but you have NO EXTRA SOURCES for gems

but you- i ugh FacePalm

devout nymph

it cost avg 590g to fuse

worldly hawk
#

and almost 10k to cuut

obtuse oyster
#

where 200k

devout nymph
#

the chance for rosterbound is 50%, so its 1180g per rosterbound gem

devout nymph
#

rosterboundgem cost ONLY silver

worldly hawk
devout nymph
#

skillissue

zenith canyon
#

not like he just got 200k gold but

#

...

devout nymph
#

if you fuse 10k worth, thats 20 attempts. in 20 attempts you get on avg 17green outcomes and 3 blue with a rare chance of purple

worldly hawk
#

mr steal my emotes is back again

worldly hawk
#

made giga stonks

devout nymph
#

50% of that is rosterbound and cost only silver, giving that the cost is 4.5k, 6.3k and 8.1k respectively to cut, going for rosterbound is a good deal in my book

#

and if you are giga desperate you can fuse 9 order as well

#

but thats some...

I can't look the same way at mommy again😭

yeah i hit the 1.something% 3 times

vagrant cradle
#

wtf

#

see

#

if my 1710 alts were getting relic cores

#

I would be more inclined to cut gems on them

#

but they dont

uncut dirge
#

even if you did get relic cores

#

it doesn't mean anything

#

because it'll be the wrong cores

distant flax
#

My 1720 valk has 1 sup relic core, and it’s the blue shield/heal deadge

vagrant cradle
#

so true

devout nymph
#

my aero dropped a drizzle relic

#

so i built drizzle

#

the week after it dropped a wf relic

#

so i had to rebuilt

uncut dirge
#

well, opportunities to get more gems for the week are over on this wildsoul

so we gotta play ferality still

maybe i should just delete this fucking character then

ferality is so fucking trash

maybe this char has better luck next week i guess

do purple cores count for the relic pity?

they don't, right?

neon cedar
#

Yes. 1 point of pity

uncut dirge
#

not that pity

#

i meant the other one

worldly hawk
#

what other pity HUH

uncut dirge
#

the one that guarantees a relic drop

#

if you have dropped enough cores and none were relics

wintry depot
#

is it real

worldly hawk
#

that's what this is for

wintry depot
#

because i got way more cores on my main and didnt get relic

worldly hawk
#

???

neon cedar
#

Oh idk. Ive heard thats a thing but Ive yet to see it work out for me

uncut dirge
#

none of my chars have gone 40 legendary cores without getting a relic core

wintry depot
#

well

uncut dirge
#

but it's hard to say whether this applies to epics

wintry depot
#

i can show you my chars

worldly hawk
#

i've done act 4 HM and kaz every week and i've gotten a relic core week 2 of release

wintry depot
#

only relic i have is the selector

worldly hawk
#

everything else was event selector/pity

#

and i almost have my 2nd pity

uncut dirge
#

you've bought every box

worldly hawk
#

yes

wintry depot
#

yes i did

uncut dirge
#

done every hard mode raid every week (or close to every week)

#

and didn't get a single relic drop?

worldly hawk
#

that pity 100% definity doesn't exsist

wintry depot
#

yep

uncut dirge
#

not even something like defense?

wintry depot
#

nop

worldly hawk
#

nope

#

nothing

#

why would they make a double pity

#

that makes 0 sense

#

or 2 pitys for the same thing

uncut dirge
worldly hawk
#

wdym how

#

i play every week since release HM and i buy every single box

uncut dirge
worldly hawk
#

hollup i'm changing char

uncut dirge
#

and that's hard mode every week

#

and bought every box

#

and opened relic pity box and relic selector?

worldly hawk
#

yeah

uncut dirge
#

and you've not done raids this week?

wintry depot
#

for my second pity

worldly hawk
#

i have

#

see arna has even more than me got more legendarys probably

uncut dirge
#

hmm i wonder if you ended up opening something right before the pity hit or something

#

no you're both missing boxes

wintry depot
#

im not

worldly hawk
#

i'm 100% not

wintry depot
#

i didnt open the event core

uncut dirge
#

48 pts per week, 7 weeks = 336

#

+15 from pity box, +15 from selector

worldly hawk
#

i run kaz nm*

uncut dirge
#

you should be at 166

wintry depot
#

no, i didnt open the core from event

#

but i got all boxes

worldly hawk
#

i did open it i mostly get epics from kaz nm

#

like 99%

uncut dirge
#

ah

worldly hawk
wintry depot
#

i mena we talking kaz hm

#

not nm

#

xD

uncut dirge
#

and you did normal something first week

worldly hawk
#

yeah i did act 4 nm week 1

#

caus reasons

uncut dirge
#

i meant arna

worldly hawk
#

ah

wintry depot
#

kaz nm first 2 weeks

#

act 4 hm always

uncut dirge
#

i think you forgot to buy some box too, you should be on an uneven number of pity points

fresh flint
#

I’m not even close to 2nd pity

wintry depot
#

no i didnt foget

uncut dirge
#

but you guys do bring up compelling evidence

worldly hawk
#

as i said i doubt something like that exsist, why would they make a pity for something and then do another pity for the same thing

uncut dirge
#

well

wintry depot
#

any boxes

worldly hawk
#

that just doesn't make sense to me

uncut dirge
#

we get an even number of boxes

#

oh, i guess you might've got some uneven number of purple cores

#

yeah nvm

wintry depot
uncut dirge
worldly hawk
uncut dirge
#

but it's not visible so they might've wanted an extra layer

#

i personally haven't had any characters that haven't got a relic by that point

#

even if it's something useless

#

but if you reach 200 pity points without any relics at all

#

then tht means it doesn't exist yeah

junior fern
#

I don’t know how you guys are so close to a second pity if you’ve never gotten a single relic drop. Mathematically that doesn’t add up

uncut dirge
#

if you do hm every week and buy every box

#

8 leges from kazeros, 4 from armoosh

junior fern
#

You get 12 cores total per week no?

uncut dirge
#

so that's 48 points per week

junior fern
#

right times 6 is how much

uncut dirge
#

7 weeks = 336 pts

junior fern
#

288

uncut dirge
#

it's week 7

worldly hawk
#

7 weeks

junior fern
#

It’s been 7 weeks??

worldly hawk
#

not 6

uncut dirge
#

anyway week 7 is 336 pts

wintry depot
uncut dirge
#

+15 from the pity box

junior fern
#

Oh right it’s been 7

uncut dirge
#

+4 from the legendary selector

#

and then another potential +15 from the relic selector we were given, but only applies to one char

#

so theoretically you could be at 170 pts

worldly hawk
#

i got 1 relic in the 2nd week

#

and then i've gotten nothing until now

uncut dirge
#

man, people gatekeep like crazy in armoosh

#

normal no less

#

lobby is full, we vote to enter

#

someone goes "is that title?!?!" and one of the supports gets banned

worldly hawk
#

min req is 1.7k for nm

#

or probably less after nerfs

junior fern
#

gatekeeping normal mode has gotta be the most smooth brain activity

worldly hawk
#

like if you don't have 1.7k at 1700 you're doing something wrong anyways

junior fern
uncut dirge
#

idk, i think it's pretty easy to be below 1700 combat power at 1700

#

but that assumes you have done zero ark grid

junior fern
#

ark grid gives too much combat power for how little actual damage it gives

uncut dirge
#

and didn't like do weapon AH above 20

#

and have like level 6 gems

worldly hawk
uncut dirge
#

man

#

can you give me some free gold too

#

it's free for you so you wouldn't mind it right

worldly hawk
#

this is my worst geared 1700

#

0 ark grid

#

no AH over 20 on wep

fresh flint
#

Who here watches stranger things

worldly hawk
#

and my karma isn't even done

uncut dirge
#

imo those level 7 gems are kinda bait

worldly hawk
#

like it's REALLY easy to reach 1700cp on a 1700

#

lmao

fresh flint
#

1700 is the bare minimum now

worldly hawk
#

as it should

#

everything below that is just rat territory

uncut dirge
#

i mean

junior fern
uncut dirge
#

being 1700 by itself means the character is a rat

worldly hawk
#

if you can't have the cp for the ilvl

junior fern
worldly hawk
#

then don't hone

#

it's that simple

uncut dirge
#

but considering 1700-1710 char median combat power is 1634

worldly hawk
#

a few 7s and H/- accs should be bare minimm

uncut dirge
#

and 1690 to 1700 is 1408, i'd say 1700 is still a relatively high bar

fresh flint
junior fern
worldly hawk
uncut dirge
fresh flint
#

That’s why it’s a median

uncut dirge
#

you really dont need that high combat power for the raids

junior fern
#

I have a 1690 Scrapper rn with the mats and over 5mill gold to push to 1700. I told myself I wouldn’t push her until AT MINIMUM the enlightenment and leap is done

junior fern
worldly hawk
#

yeah there are a couple things you should do before you push a char

junior fern
#

but you can’t push to 1700 without bare minimum investment and expect people to take you

uncut dirge
uncut dirge
#

higher raids earn more resources

junior fern
#

I wanna grief myself because I don’t want to grief other people by bringing a rat 1700 to HM mordum

#

got it.

uncut dirge
#

the earlier you get there the more efficient you are

#

since the cost stays the same

worldly hawk
junior fern
worldly hawk
#

this ^

junior fern
#

I’m lucky enough to have a roster to back up this 1690 scrapper. If I wanted to I can buy gems and accessories to prop her up despite not finishing karma

#

But I don’t want to

#

lol

#

if that’s griefing myself then so be it

#

at least I’m not griefing others

worldly hawk
#

i mean H/- accs cost like

#

nothing

#

10k per or something like that

junior fern
#

I’m pheon poor (i’m not i have over 600 now i just have bad experience with being pheon poor so now im stingy kek)

worldly hawk
#

50k for accs 100k for gems so 150k min investment

#

and that's like

#

BARE minimum

junior fern
#

I already invested the 200K on the 1690 lol

#

5x 7s and also 20K accessories

worldly hawk
rocky sluice
#

Just make ur own lobby, alot of pugs just dont wanna sidereal that u can 100% get away with less than 1700 cp for it

worldly hawk
#

well yes that's kinda true

#

but then like 70% of people that apply are giga rats

#

so you're stuck in gate 0 for a while

#

like i've seen 1700s with 1300cp

#

and not one like 6 or 7

#

in one raid in one party finder

#

70% of them were supports

rocky sluice
#

If ur less than the min req u cant complain if ppl less than min req apply to ur lobby

worldly hawk
#

true bt that doesn't apply to me personally becase i have no chars that are above 30% of all cp

rocky sluice
#

But if u feel i wanna do X raid but im being rejected cause I can't reach X cp, literally just make ur own lobby and esp for the latest raids ppl will apply, and honestly character might be rat, but if ppl know the raid, its just an extra 2-3 minutes to the raid for nm

worldly hawk
#

2.2%, 8.7%, 24,7%, 25.7%, 18.6% and 2,9%

#

that's the thing tho, in pugs i HAVE to assume the people that are applying are handless

rocky sluice
#

Thats on u then

worldly hawk
#

because it's happend so SO many times that i've taken min req cp and it was a jail becauuse people have no hands

rocky sluice
#

Now ur saying even min req is bad

#

So in the end it just depends on hands

worldly hawk
#

min and or below

rocky sluice
#

There is no and in that statement

charred void
rocky sluice
#

If even min is bad then ur changing the min

worldly hawk
worldly hawk
#

so like 1600cp

rocky sluice
#

Ur flip flopping ur statement alot

worldly hawk
#

i'm trying to correct a misunderstanding

#

it has nothing todo with flip flopping

uncut dirge
#

yeah

#

the misunderstanding is that you need to be 1700 combat power at 1700

worldly hawk
worldly hawk
uncut dirge
#

or that you need (should even?) spend 250k on equipping a 1700 char

#

instead of using that to hit 1710

worldly hawk
#

250k isn't alot of gold

#

lets be honest

uncut dirge
#

it's a lot of gold

worldly hawk
#

no it's not

#

a 1700 makes 100k weekly

uncut dirge
#

then why aren't you 1710

worldly hawk
#

i have a 1720 almost 30

uncut dirge
#

im talking about all your 1700s

worldly hawk
#

#1 because i'm saving for a new class

uncut dirge
#

should be 1710

worldly hawk
#

and #2 because books

charred void
#

1704 -> 1710 was only 900k this week

worldly hawk
#

i'm buying books for my main next

rocky sluice
#

250k is alot for newer players, but for ppl who have been playing for a while it seems like a w.e

#

The problem with the game is thay we need new players

worldly hawk
#

even for a new player it's not that much because paradise

rocky sluice
#

Older raids ppl just get carried

#

The fun is the new raids

charred void
#

paradise always such a good argument

#

"bro just get fusion from paradise" meanwhile my 2 chars not getting fusion for 1 month

worldly hawk
#

there are other ways to save gold from paradise

#

freetaps/accs/gold/abidos

rocky sluice
#

So it depends if the person is a newer for 250k is alot or not

worldly hawk
#

if you're like BRAND new 250k takes a couple weeks

#

maybe 3

rocky sluice
#

But lets be honest, its not like 250k is reallt a small amount of gold with all the gold sinks around

queen grail
#

wahoo I GOT MY META ANCIENT

lunar hedge
#

250k is 2-3 weeks of higher Kazeros raids

queen grail
worldly hawk
#

but someone who can run kaz doesn't only have 1 char

rocky sluice
#

And if ur new ur prob most likely playing 1 character

junior fern
#

that’s… not true

#

getting to 1710 on event is not too hard

worldly hawk
#

well most likely more than 1

lunar hedge
#

That's assuming the new players only were playing 1 Char

junior fern
#

But having more than one 1680+ as a new player is hard

worldly hawk
#

well yes that's true it costs like 300k total maybe

#

to get to 1700 with event

#

like it was giga free

#

what was karma again per tree?

rocky sluice
#

So saying oh its only 250k isnt really saying much as evening honing to 1710 costs more than 250k

junior fern
#

Yeah but a new(er) player typically doesn’t have the foundation to get a second one to 1680-1700 range as easily

lunar hedge
#

1.1k per karma tap

worldly hawk
#

it isn't alot because lost ark isn't meant to be played as a sprint

worldly hawk
#

you're meant to progress gradually over a long period of time

#

buutu some people treat it like they have to play kaz HM NOW

junior fern
#

Desert arguing against the masses again using strawman arguments

worldly hawk
#

what's wrong with lost ark is a marathon

junior fern
#

Nothing but that’s not the point lol

charred void
rocky sluice
#

Thats the problem with lost ark for new players

#

Hard to retain attention

junior fern
#

People are trying to tell you a new player doesn’t typically have a full roster to farm gold

lunar hedge
worldly hawk
lunar hedge
rocky sluice
#

It didnt sound like it

worldly hawk
#

but in the grand scheme of things 250k isn't really alot of gold

kind lotus
#

MALES

worldly hawk
#

for a new player it might FEEL like alot

worldly hawk
kind lotus
worldly hawk
worldly hawk
#

but yeah 250k really isn't alot

#

lets say from paradise you get once to stage 60 weekly with a blue key

#

wich isn't that uncommon

#

you get gold from stage 5/6 once per week

#

that's 18-27k per week ontop of everything else

#

IF you get the gold ofc

junior fern
#

mfw desert trying to tell me getting lucky from paradise (x2) just to get 1/10 — yes one tenth — the amount he’s saying is “not a lot”

worldly hawk
#

bitch from a 1680 you get like 80k per week

#

you do that for 3 weeks you have the gold you need for accs and the gems

rocky sluice
#

Just acc and gems

worldly hawk
#

and in the next 3 weeks you can do karma

#

because you're gated by destiny stones anyways

rocky sluice
#

250k does not get u enough for karma

charred void
#

don't forget to do elixirs and trans

worldly hawk
#

what elixirs

#

what trans

junior fern
#

So basically… tell a new player just wait 6-8 weeks before they can play the game with other people

charred void
#

which also cost a lot of gold

rocky sluice
#

Yep basically what im hearing

rocky sluice
#

Id drop the game after mokoko if thats whay im hearing

junior fern
worldly hawk
#

pugging just isn't an option

rocky sluice
#

Yea ut is

worldly hawk
#

because of GKing

charred void
worldly hawk
#

well with mokoko event maybe

charred void
#

idk where you get 6-8 weeks

rocky sluice
#

Everyone shits on pugs so much, but honestly alot of ppl just remember the bad times

junior fern
#

Your fresh 1670 Paladin wasn’t being told to hit 1700 combat power

worldly hawk
#

that's not what i said ever

#

at all

#

i said you should have 1700cp at 1700

junior fern
#

So that is what you said

#

I didn’t say 1700 combat power at 1670

worldly hawk
#

that was my entire point yes

#

xD

junior fern
#

Yeah and Faytens fresh 1670 was probably 1400 combat power or less, we scale your number down based on that

rocky sluice
#

Amd when i said just make ur own lobby if u cant reach those "min req"

#

U kept shitting on pugs

#

Then what other option do they have if they wanna plau those raids???

worldly hawk
#

because in my personal experience they are jail with below cp req peoples

junior fern
#

so if you had the gold to go 1700 rn you’d prob be at 1400cp

queen grail
#

wahoo I finally broke 4k @charred void @wintry depot @neon cedar wahoo poggies

worldly hawk
#

or solo modes

#

it's just the reality of the game that if you start late you're at the short end of the stick

junior fern
#

But you’re specifically talking about 1700 ilvl….

rocky sluice
#

No solo modes or mokoko bus for 1700+ raids, and im saying, if ur under those "min reqs" and tired of GK just make ur own lobby and do sidereals, since alot of pugs just dont wanna do sidereals, and its better than being GK

# rocky sluice I dont understand why ur trying to beat down other options except SPEND GOLD, GE...

Because im speaking from personal experiences, i came back with ignite and GKing has been an issue forever and the only time it wasnt was super bad was with koko events or when my buddies came with their juiced chars and got me into the lobby. The sad reality is to not get gatekept IF you care about MP raiding is juicing your char by minmaxing your gold i still to this day plan my gold spending 3+ months ahead because its just been burned into me
