Rich get richer
you need like half ark grid for 2k if you have full 6s xd

but it is not like that makes him special
looks like my db logs
cant change my mind ppl should play with ppl who the same DPS as they do (+/-20%)
Then ask SG to show performance in game

i wish i could
I would be fine with it, would speed up my runs significantly in general 
Wont stop you from getting gatekeept
I'm fine with downward compatible

def will xd
did they like remove clown cards from the loot table?
almost done another week no card
I wanted bomba counter for mord
dunno
its only like 3% to drop so
ye if i could enter NM alone i would xd
should be 5% I believe
for the specific ones
i mean all my chars onetap the boss without a sup its only like 2b
getting the lobby is the problem
HM or FA?
front attack
ye its pretty good
ye, they do pretty well at lower lvls
woah
but drex is kinda RNG if you get a lot of counters DPS skyrockets
she did 363/379 last week in kaz so ye class is really nice
what about armoche?
368 but omega scuffed party and bad sup i assume she could go around 420-450 there
dps, right? not udps?
DPS ye
Kaz uDPS was 204 and 220 armoche 230
Kaz was def not bad armoche still lotsa room to get a better run but u know how it is
with runs this fast tiny things can be such a big dif already
so you're one of the guys above me huh
those 3 gates were 1x 100 and 2x 99 so probably
(you're #2 and #3 on armoche at <2k, i'm #4)
I only got close to 2k via getting the super charge build going with ark grid
Used a lot of the selectors I had for this, seemed more useful than just increasing blues with selectors on some other chars
i got a card from clown but a purple one thx game
i used the 200 event pity currency we got since its a new char
soon i'll get my 3rd core hopefully
Sheesh
My alts are stacking better paradise stuff than main for now but definitely will rebound later

i just checked my waterset... armen died harder in my cards than in the fkn story
Rough times
24 it is if next raid is water
You aren’t buying mari’s cards I assume either
nah but its legit just 3 cards total that fucked me over, they ate nearly all my selectors
not been getting armens kadans (and T3 clowns)
i think i opened like 9 or 10 selectors just for kadan
if we get 1 more raid without water set it should be fine tho
class achievements go brrr

wtf
Out here crushing planets
We need some of those planets you know

u can fetch me that silver, i lost almost 50m this week for a single level 10 reroll 

have exactly 1 and my valky wont give it away xD
self inflicted by not knowing how important gems will be when i decided to play 6 dif classes
but im fine on silver
on average week i go even
this week just hits hard cause resting + unlucky
I usually am even or a net positive but then it gets smashed down in batches from min-maxing astrogems

ye my minmaxing will be just boss dmg and fk the single 10 cost
and even more fk 8 9 2x10
there is no way we will get a raid with a DPS check so impossible that reasonable minmaxing (just get 4 or 5 additional or boss whatever u get) wont be enough before this system gets nerfed like elixirs
we are just so overjuiced at this point that we skip mechs even on release if bosses have a maximum phasing speed
dps checks outside of tfm a joke no?
Always gonna be that way
Every new raid only needs a player to go so far in the previously released subsystem
tbf kazeros even had a weak DPS check on TFM, it's just that 8 ppl staying alive for 30 min is not a given if you are on min DPS
yawns
how much is dps check per dps
or udps per player or whatever
if you consider ally skills on TFM its between 300 and 330 for all segments
wait thats not much
my 2kcp char does like 230m and im bad
not quite sure what the average for 2-2+3 is if you use full offense armen but probably like 320?
but i guess tfm hard cuz you insta die
ye the issue is more that if you have to greed to do that dmg its very unlikely that 8 ppl survive for 30 min
dont greed iguess
but its totally possible to do that on 2.5k CP if you are confident on greeding everything even if very unlikely that 8 ppl can do that without mistake
Except no one was doing that at the time
these are so useless mannn
Maybe now since TFM has been out for so long and if people actually bringing people with that low CP

Kinda moot
People aren’t stepping into TFM with 2.5k cp
ye i wanted to do a 2.5k CP TFM but i never found more than 2 others who wanted to try
Most people wouldn’t bother wasting time
Except maybe to carry a friend
For title or whatever
tbh i had to greed very hard week 1 in HM since i did it on 2.4k and maybe i wanted to also be top DPS to annoy the doubters xd
do i use my 3 selectors to get lvl 5 or nah 
w ragebait mentality
running when the bus is driving by but still being first at school to make the others rage
thats W
Feels like a weird group of folks you’re chatting with that even cares for that stuff
Weird ass ragebaiting
tbh i got flamed in 9/10 pug lobbies for my CP
had to show them
saw one of them who called me "zDPS censored rat" recently he didnt even get CC 

and in that lobby he was doing 60m less than me on average every pull
might be petty but had to let him know
i wish tfm isnt getting removed
no time for me to get 1740 before tfm end
are you not 1730 yet?
rip
time to focus on other things
i'd always prefer to get TFM as scaled content but that will stay a dream
Usually what hell content is for
There has to be at least one content available where gear chasing becomes applicable
i just dont feel TFM when it phases faster than week 1 HM feels so bad
rotating extreme mode i guess
we're literally months in, it cant keep the same difficulty level
wanted my hell vykas title
They’re bringing hell back at some point
catastrophe mode from china would be something for main chasers
It clearly wasn’t that popular compared to the grand scheme of the game, so it’s a bit understandable
Can’t even make time for hell with actually playing LA normally
i think main reason hell mode was unpopular was that most builds didnt even work anymore as well as kinda large battle item cost if you grind it
Would be nice but nightmare suffices for now at least for raid releases
Those too, but a bit minor
It’s obvious they’d factor all the reasons why folks aren’t doing hell
With the approach of looking at the game holistically
The typical player is doing dailies and weekly raiding for actual rewards
i think if they kept updating hell to be scaled to current builds it would have seen much more play
when hell was a kind-of relevant thing we were a lot more down bad with some classes
wouldnt say it's the main reason. ppl are just moths to a flame for "actual" rewards.
this
nobody likes to play a nerfed main with a build thats only semifunctional
That’s me with TTH forever until they reworked it and it became meta in hell

By then, lost interest and IRL priorities
The actual amount of time to have a useable class in hell to when it got taken down, was short
didnt they say they weill rework hell mode and then bring it back?
i hope kazeros extreme will actually be extreme and not like thaemine
Think even kayangal was on there
yeah so i think we should just wait, better have the system improved than keeping it as is
Yup
they said the same for pvp
and they also said we will have a large map expansion in the summer
doubt these will come out anytime soon anyway
xd
ivory tower hell when
Just making a point that this whole idea behind equalized content isn’t really that popular in an MMO that’s based around progression
If it gave actual rewards, then maybe
i think it depends on which progression stage the equalized gear takes effect
equalized in numbers is fine, ruining builds is not, but thats just my take
and they also keep adding progression systems that effect class gameplay so
its very hard to balance
Yup
if your char played exactly as it does now but only does 400m DPS (for the example for kazeros TFM) it still would be fine
yehh
Which again, no one is gonna play content if they aren’t enjoying their fundamentals of the class
yeah idk SG keeps doing this mistake they make something new, but they have to go back and fix a ton of things to make it work
tfw i couldnt really play evo scouter in hell because i needed one more spell to cycle my meter 😔
they keep doing this all the time
And I’m sure by now, most people don’t want to go back to their baseline class without ark grid for example
yup exactly
For some, not much changes but there’s a handful where things have already changed
world boss ticket
only class i'd enjoy that on would be sorc i guess
cause i really liked reflux before ark grid but the base build didnt get support

i swapped to ignite because triple DD feels so good and i dislike reflux ark grid
yeah
ark grid ignite is so good now
a bit annoying in homework raids if you dont have your meter up on time
i just wish there was an ark grid that supported DD as the only cast with full instants outside of that
lucksack
wdym, i deserved this
but im happy with igniter now so no need to overly complain
deserved but definitely not needed 
i didnt see a single relic this week on 8 chars tbh
2 ancients tho 
also igniter is basically a 1 gem class cant complain as someone who cant afford gems about that either 
undeserved
someone surely is happy that AGS rarely bans RMTers
with the state of AGS right now
the last of my concerns is them banning RMT
after the latest roadmap video its very clear
that thing is long gone, if they ban all RMTers now we have 500 players LUL
we need SG to take the game ASAP
they also deleted the mention for server merges in May
i think they wont go through with this
they will leave it as is
Might be delayed or basically on SG’s plate
i would be happy if they didnt merge, but i also think they will still merge as may is that empty
Merge elpon get me out
May is next month this should have been announced already
i just think they will ignore it
I want a new guild so I wanted a merge lmao
its just sad because i think more players will quit now
tbf the only reasonable needed merge in EU is ortuus and that could just go into arcturus i guess
Elpoop
If they haven't decided what's going where there would be no real point in mentioning merges
they probably fired the guy responsible for server merges and now they dont know what to do

A 10k pop server surely can't be hard to run kekw
Maybe they don't want the list to be too small cus then people will doom even more
considering ppl have random high ping and random dcs already id focus on that first xd
Never had any of that kekw
At this point if they merge Luterra on NAE it might just collapse
not sure how it is on other regions but every few raids it hits someone with a ping spike or dc and sometimes its also multiple ppl
never Dced as well , but ive seen a lot of people getting random DCs when i pug
had 2 pug in my act 4... they had to log back in from desktop 
ye hahah
the problem is eac
It’s mostly SA players and west coast that has those issues here for us on NAE
if it was always only 1 person it'd be harder to defend the servers/AGS on that but since it also sometimes happens to 2 or 3 ppl at the exact same time its hard to believe that it isnt related to the game or servers specifically
if you “dc” for just a milisecond it dcs you with eac error
ye EAC being ass is a well known issue for many games
when i had bad isp that wasnt even noticable in csgo/valorant/anything
EAC is an issue for the client just randomly disconnecting.
-there are also stability issues for servers, specifically the parts that host major hub cities as they like to just brick now and again
but even then it shouldnt hit 2 or 3 players at the same time and that has happened before (even if rare)
my la dcd every 15 min lol
Thought the same too until you also realize how much people are from the same areas or use the same ISP
It's happened on both Balthorr and Luterra on NAE
interesting what ppl buy
its not random
depends on isp kinda
ye but in my personal case i havent DCd in any game outside of LA aside from full outages (which happened like 3 times total since i moved here 4 years ago)
somewhere i dc every 5min somewhere (my current isp at home) i dont dc
Definitely has to do with something related to the servers and the hops/connection points along the way for various ISP and areas
same man
eac is so bad in other games itd be just like 1% packet loss but eac dcs you
xd
EAC also causes a lot of FPS issues
It's an and/or/both kind of situation.
If your ISP isn't set to an aggressive DHCP your client won't try to re-establish if your outgoing IP changes
(and EAC + UE3 isn't good with that kind of IP fuckery).
It also can just drop connection at some points which was common with multiplayer dedicated servers from that era of gaming.
The first issue also happens with ESO fwiw
LA also never built in any type of proper reconnection solution in place
yeah thats what im saying
also the fact that DCd just means "no loot entry gone" is stupid af only cause of infinite akkan G3 NM bus
that thing is long gone but the issue remains
xddd
That is the bigger issue. Bad management making a common bug worse
instead they could have just given loot to infinite bussers and count it as cleared for them
this one is smt lmao
Smilegate abhors anyone taking advantage so everyone gets collective punishment as a result
like there was a better solution right there that also fixes last second DC issues
Funny as collective punishment is a war crime (or consumer protection violation) in any other context
nah rather fk the entire community over tahts better

I mean

The fact that if one guy disconnects your entire raid is fucked
too real
Is disgusting behaviour
to ban stuff like that they need to change the whole games design including how the marketplace works
how can u ban bussing when people can still do it on discord for example
ull have to change player trading etc
People found Henry as a driver in a bus
xd
Was echidna or so?
bussing isnt bannable
Bussing is in no way anywhere near the top of this games issues
bussing also wouldnt be as big if there was a total loot pool for gold and it would be distributed between all players and allow entry (without scaling the raid) at any size
Perma bann everyone who rmt once or bussed once 
with how much time SG spends at making sure ppl barely have enough stuff to progress they surely could figure out how to balance that as well
tbh all new raids are super easy
people who want to buss will buss
u cant do anything about it
bussing doesnt get banned
wdy mean

only advertising bannable no?
They also dont bann rmt
yeah only advertisement is bannable

It's surprising how Korean game companies stick to the same principle they started with without changing anything no matter what happens (I can be very wrong about this)
saturn even RMTd on stream and didnt get banned for it
I remember the Baker special sound
Because to change they will have to restrict aspects of the game. And in general the community is against that. a lot of "rice eaters" make profit off how the game is currently designed
You underestimate people. Bussing is just as big, if not bigger in wow
is it
hmm
Yep
It is
That one website sound?
Lol

tbh bussing in some game can be good idea to make money lol
my friend was doing that at release

better pay than working in his country he said
it always depends on the value you get out vs the hassle it is, i did 6 ppl dungeons as 2 a ton in aion just to hyperfarm, never looking for ppl even if it was slightly lower value and just speedrun farming duo was so good
The core structure of wow isnt even raiding, well not as much, and people still pay for it
Some people wanna play idle
And pay for it
Doesn't matter what you do
When they kidnapped the Venezuelan president the runescape economy crashed

ts crazy
It just comes down to time is money
No what you saw were very bad players
Or someone who bought an account
Or a multiboxer
If I have money and cba time why not buy boost for clout
a lot of ppl straightup sold their accs
i saw ppl who were far worse than someone buying a title
Some of these idle mobile games and shit literally just target rich peoples kids
What happened to him? Wanted to check if he is playing fatal but it seems he quit or got banned
like literal endgame ppl with titles doing 30-30-10 sup uptimes (as sup main)
U want full team pay 2m
And its so effective its disgusting
It’s pretty wild
i dont care about him so no idea i just know a few things i saw and thats enough for me to not bother
Considering how superficial quite a few societies have become, it’s an easy target
Put anything in place to chase power or be above others or have what others don’t have
He kept failing hm Aegir mech
People need instant dopamine
Ezmoney
It's kinda why raiding is not as popular anymore
The dopamine takes forever to kick in
Nah there was legit a bot in my echidna lobby 2 months ago
No more long grinding and achieving things over time, it’s all instant gratification
After hours or even days of progging does it kick in
Like 100% b o t
Yeah that's the gaming society today
tbh i get my instant dopamine from parsing a run im happy with performance wise
Unfortunate
Just make the same shitty merge/match 3 puzzle game with 6 different skins an sell ads/microtransactions
i dont see what ppl get from RMTing their 1 button dmg number, a lot of ppl have the money to RMT, not a lot of ppl have the hands (and brain) to play well
Don't need to play well if I have r1 title
Pretty much
Don't need to play at all, just flex on brokies
No. Make it really good combat, almost perfect game but add shitty rng slop systems to frustrate players and cash big. Should remind you of a certain game
But it also goes in the opposite direction too
Too many brokies pride themselves on being good so they hold anyone with gear at the highest standards

Like you’re not expected to be the #1 player
50 is the average for a reason
KH Union X?
i could rmt but i dont see the point. fashion is endgame after all
Or have this “but if I had that gear or account” mentality
oh oh! no, Diablo Immortal
GW2 mentality
Fashion is always the true endgame
i mean the game went rfom an MMO to some monster hunter lobby afk simulator
might as well look good while im stuck in PF
you get to become 1755 on the first week of the new raid, then burnout and quit after 2 weeks, since you rmted everything and no goals left, time to quit
TERA was the same
Same for wow. Naked drainei and blood elves ERP in goldshire
Don't gotta swipe for that
all PvE raid focused MMOs are the same lobby simulators
That are KR yeah
I personally just like the RP aspects that exist outside of progression and raiding, but obv still want things to do
Idm wasting time on character customization, outfits, screenshots, SH stuff
yeah
Or questing to have more of that RP vibe
I just want more mokoko seeds
I play for the adventure
Wow is a lobby simulator too
i enjoy that stuff too if vertical progression isnt pain
more mokoko seeds at june[only 6 but better than 0]
Pugging m+ is the devil
Not on the same scale unless your playing at the very, very high end.
It's bigger pop soo
I separate progression out, I can play a game for either or both
Outside of this expansion, yeah pugging m+ is a nightmare
10s last week and this week are not high end
But midnight made it soo much easier lmao
I'm still waiting 20 mins to get accepted 
Some ppl be like " i got nothing to do wahh" and when u ask them how much exploration they got "5k in qinghe"
LMFAO FACTS
Got gatekept yesterday in nm kaz
20mins for a +10 wtf

thats why i personally like progression in timeframes, you get everything except minmaxing done fast (lets say half the time until next release) then u can have fun and only minmax as much as you want
Are u playing evoker healer or some shit. Nothing no one ever wants
Never waited that long personally
meanwhile im here like
That’s entirely why I like WWM, it has flexible to chase progression or adventuring (or any other accolade like PvP or some other leaderboard)
It's extremely good lol
Doesn't always happen for sure
yeah and none of them drain your time
Maybe its coz I play healer but never had to wait that long
like ok the new heroes realm u can get jailed
Dps life is shambles
but its still ez to clear
Depends on how much time is defined as
Because I’m used to traditional MMOs
If your io is 3k+ it should be fine though...
I'd understand if your trying to slam +15 or more
i just dont like being dragged into some petty damage competition
People get very picky
You spend years working on things vs LA where it’s a few months before content is stale
Yes but u need a certain mentality for that, a lot of people dont like to play the waiting game
Not anymore is what I’m saying
The MMORPG genre is dead and only old vets stick with old titles at this point
i dont think it's "Dead"
There's no flavor with raids so people get bored very quickly in LA. It's to be expected
Doing kaz for the 500th time does something special to your brain
Bunch of zoomers want progression to finish after 1 month so they can move onto idk what next
i really enjoyed progression in aion before 6.x it was very easy to get reasonable gear rather fast and you only needed a lot of effort to minmax which is fine
it's just that only Asian developers make MMORPGS currently and the west hates their philosophy
^this
It's also cus ur doing the raid atleast 6x per week
i think if LA focused on what its best at (class and raid design) it would do very well in the west
No honey I don't want to do mordum anymore
Yeah the system is flawed on a foundational level.
Please don't make me
Mordumb has overstayed its welcome more than any other raid, the worse raid of the week
Anyone can see that from a mile away
we play the most rewarding version of the game and we play more than the regions who earn less
a lot of things went wrong with Lost Ark in the West, especially the overhyped launch, the inexperience of AGS and the Korean streamers (imo)
Hype on launch was well deserved
I want to play alts out of fun, not out of progression
i personally enjoy doing the same raid with different classes a lot because every class has different issues to overcome in the same raid which is kinda fun to learn
It backfired
If raids were on a weekly rotation it would be way more fun
But that destroys smilegates profit motive
Just people thought for some reason bcus it's AGS it will be EU mindset friendly
because all these players made an initial impression and now theyre gone, u cant get them back
LA really lacks "main" content and thats a thing china solved pretty well
I’d love this
Forgetting it's a Korean p2w mmo
I been saying how I’d love a rotating extreme raid or strike raid on the schedule
Either as a bonus raid or a replacement to an existing one of your choice
ye rotating extreme modes is something i have been hearing everywhere for a long time and i share that
its ok AION 2 soon i can just go back to pvping my soul out
Don't even need extreme
Yes im also going to play Aion2
We just got the tech remind us when certain items expire in game
Just let me replace my worst gold raid with a rotating x y z
Yeah, can be just anything at this point
I'd love to go clown again
Aion2 surely will be adjusted properly for the west to not be a disaster 
See I wouldn’t even mind if it was any other pve style content too, it doesn’t ‘need’ to be a raid either
it wont
it wont be, its NCsoft
Imagine if they put mythic+ dungeons into lost ark. Abyssal dungeon+
KR still malding they nerfed the whales
That would be so sick lol
Abyssal* mf forgot the terms of loa
It's true, just need a bit more variety in my weekly chores
this traitor on god
Auto correct
LOL
1740 Kayangel?
That makes sense tho
we get 1730 Sonavel be happy
Just an infinite scaling abysmal dungeon with higher rewards the higher you push
1730 argeos
Every game has potential, I just see it everywhere how either things don’t happen or it does happen but gets poorly implemented

1730 slovakia is worse
I dont blame just SG for lost ark's situation , its the KR playerbase as well
I leave it up to Koreans to fuck something up on release then “rework” it later
No scorp
they tried multiple times to change or add different stuff
Fucking forgot about sko
KR didnt like them
Kill me
everyone hates scorp

most progression related games get turned into basically cashgrabs with gameplay instead of building a healthy game that makes a ton of money from skins
Ngl, it’s hard to please a player base

scorp was changed the least from the guardian changes, its still ah
They will nerf ark grid a year later then release a newer system that's good like karma. Then another system that's really bad, purposely. Then fix it a year later again
Good strat
I would rather do argos before 1700
lmfao
Some folks would want both tho, there can’t be a bias in just one direction

lost ark still cant find a middle ground either
I’m not tryna sit here to compete with jobless people who can grind on a game for 10+ hours a day
even bns added that lmao
Theres no other way
You need a balance of many things to please multiple different audiences
I do understand that but back in the good days, you were rewarded for time spent. Not how large your credit limit is
even when they try to do something new, ppl just moan for more raids so they backtrack
Oh for sure
Times have changed. For better or for worse
They don't make the game for us tho
As long as Korea is fine brainrotting and continuing to rice farm till pension the design philosophy of stuff that comes out of there will never change
and you shouldnt have to, with healthy game i meant that, the fact that you dont have to either spend money or your entire free time to keep up would be said health
Has someone saw that RMT lobby title recently in NA?
Issue is times have changed
the game has no variety, even if the raids are different 
you still have to do stuff to get your gear just not unreasonable amount
To be honest guys, the game is miles better in KR because it has the population to be played both seasonally and it's fun in all progression brackets because u have players everywhere
''buying endgame account for 8k bucks'' or something
these issues are worse here because u just dont have the players

to play the game at your own pace
I still find what we have reasonable for La
also these pityless giga RNG sinks dont work well with the west (and 6 char mentality which is far more common here than KR)
Nothing is out of reach nor required to have
It's in euc too
minus the censorships i find our version better than KRs but we also are stuck being ignored by SG
Everyone gets to engage with current systems and progress fairly normally
Lost ark can for sure already be played as a seasonal game btw
and thats what's hurting the game now
yeap
How hard is Serka gonna be?
Can I just easily pug Nightmare mode?
i dont think the game overall is in a bad state, its been way better than what it was 2 years ago
Didn't help our version was flagshipped by some of the most annoying sweatlord/whales of Korea that even quit their version because the game stopped giving them special treatment
Enjoy farming normal armoche for the next 3 months
considering the changes to mats and 2 endgame raids/year u can play it seasonally now kinda
the next abyssal dungeon is a filler anyway
thats a trap
cause we dont know the next raid
if u need full ancient cores
etc
xd
Imagine
Yeah of course. Who wants to purposefully eat shit. A new player in this game is actually tragic. Your better off learning the infinite knowledge gap of wow or some other game
i dont think they will balance anything around ANCIENT cores
least not before the system is nerfed
Yeah doubt it as well
serca nm doesnt even need ark grid
It's not even that hard to learn now cus they gutted most classes 
The change for our version for Serca is also SO MUCH LESS PUNISHING than it would otherwise be for normal moders
Prob a year out before something like that but it’s also a system where ancients vs relics aren’t going to be game changing
they wont jump to the next shadow raid expecting u to have ancient cores
yup
exactly
Yes they wont but the people who farmed the filler raid will be miles ahead in terms of ark grid progression
Yeah but the keyboard turning, CCs, what shares ICDs, each classes important CDs, etc.
the filler raid is piss easy tho
and can be entered at 1700
Much easier tho true

NM giving armor mats so u can switch right away once u hit 1730 is great ngl
Yup
it is, but u cant be like ok i will stop playing for 3 months and come back for the next shadow raid
that's my point
But that’s normal no?
My poor sub rogue
tho it takes 3 weeks to get full ancient on HM so its not bad either
cause while the new raid is easy, u have to hone the new gear from secra
Which one is more difficult?
They killed it dead
nmm serca or tfm kaz
well no shit, that's unrealistic, but you can play less- and not fall dramatically so far behind that you're literally gatekept from the newest system
There has to be some level of ‘playing the game’ or you have to accept being behind
Tfm
and go past the "Dolores" only titles or 10x clears etc
Idk man ive seen Pika pop off in m+ on sub rogue
yeah
You can’t just sit around and do nothing, then expect to be ready for a new raid release
Noppee
Yeah makes sense
Unless you’re ahead of the curve
this isnt the kind of game u can take a lengthy break on god
Sub is good but it's just 0 satisfaction to play
ST 2 button AOE 2 diff buttons
Aids
however you can also stop near the end of current progression events (1700*) and not fall so far behind that in 3 months you might as well quit
Yeah i took a month break now my roster is shit
Once you take a long break u basically never come back.
no it isnt shut
At most you can take maybe a 1 month (possibly 2) but it’s designed to have some regular upkeep and they do in fact minimize things like how dailies work
It's not giga flex standard* so stfu Ratboi
bro humble bragging as if we cant see his roster
Your roster is still ahead but you wouldn’t be considered in the late endgame territory anymore
None of alts have even 5% of ark grid done
And my main isnt even finished
Like borderline nightmare now basically
W
i took a 1 month break during strike raid and i still regret it
you mean sidelines or cores?
Missing out on strike raids is a big slap to the face LOL
That shit was both fun and rewarding
yeah my static disbanded and i was really annoyed lost motivation
China's version was weirdly better but that means Strike is now a permanent raid :L
Cores for main. 0 ancient. And one core is 19p instead of 20 but getting it is hard. Because 19P is with one gem that has strong side nodes
cause we had agreed to push all alts to 1720 and i spend all of my gold pushing alts only for them to disband once the raid came out, got super mad
Ancient is not "done" you FOMO dummy
Relic is "done" and Ancient is Whale++
You cant whale for ancient...
Not yet

It’s the side lines
can you?
wait deathboi is actually giga behind
Ancients is the least of our concerns
Well my side lines are strong actually

Cutting astrogems is where everyone will end up
The only way to increase my CP is ancient core or ilvl
It's 5.4k on at 1748
Sup cp is hard to push
As it always does, we're back to cutting a Rock at an npc in town
not being able to whale for elixirs didnt stop people from saying theyre done at set 40
I don’t wanna cut rocks

Take a rock and hit it upside my head instead
AI astrogem cutting coming to you in 2027
19mil awakening on guardianknight...
One click astrogem cutting would be wild, I’ll take it
polish wood instead
Would cutting Hair be better
Different standards
For the average person yeah
bro is near whales
Look at my alts lol
and hes "behind"
Naw
fk ur alts
We had this chat before, I swear we're going in circles
Whales are 6k+
ye, ark grid doesnt exist, literally
Just giga sweat new mats and you'll be 8k week 2
ezpz
hes behind at not even 1%
so what do u consider this @sand marsh 
Someone who doesn't have 15k hours like i do lol
Just a different world
ur playing lost ark 2 already
Om
compared to me 
fucking dps build
Gonna be 8k cp in a month
one sec
I wonder if I should hone another 1730

Imma just have to sit at 5.4k. There's no realistic way to increase it before nightmare
Unless I spend everything rn on honing
5.4 is more than enough for nightmare
And hope for the best
you could cut some bracelets nerd
wich card set is more important after serca? fire or earth?
im at 4.6k T_T
It's not about enough or not. I've been at the same cp for months
LoS , but get human damage up
dark
I've been 5.4k cp for what
oh after secra
so has the ceiling
ignore me
3 months?

Yes
"no realistic way to increase CP"
Bracelets aren’t realistic tho tbh
Brother you want me to replace that?
Fuck off
Wtf

ye good luck cutting 9/7 or a good bracelet
Yeah let me cut a 9/7

he did take 1 month break
Triple high line bracelet
do it
no joke the gold shop one will probably give more cp just because its that's broken
Stone can def be upgraded if was doing paradise each week but still rng
It’s more “accessible” per say
nah dw ive cut over 400 stones on my main with paradise nothing yet
The average is like 600-700 iirc
you acting as if that was impossible, meanwhile we have people ehre with 4 9 7 stones on the char...
think fayten cut over 1k and saw nothing
ive gotten like 10 7/8s

Can swing in either direction
Rng man.
When AI came out I went thru like 500 stones
Before I took a breal
Break*
I actually spent my pheons
I cutted over 2k on first day
got fuck all, then did my sorc for new stone got 9 7 in 5tries
in fact 4th one was it
And that's around when I took a break
yeah and super expensive to get minimal CP
Yeah. Aside from ilvl for me it's ancient core, 9/7 or a 30% bracelet lol
im not going to spend my sanity or my gold for a week 1 clear, when we have a soft reset
its just fomo at this point
cause i can make way more use of my resources after i gear transfer and get way more CP
clearing NM secra week 1
(nightmare)
You could cut astros no
But yes it's a dice roll 100%
im at 4.6k
I only have 4.9K
I was going to skip nightmares on my alts but I prob won’t depending on how prog goes
Maybe HM angle for 2-3 weeks then nightmare when comfortable
so if you have a bad supp 5k , if you have a good supp 4k 
with 4.5 ur save doesnt matter the supp
But most of the lfg posts want 5k+
I wanna see you clear if your sup is 100% afk since start to end
I heard that nightmare make sense just for title/mount cuz no dif in gear mats from hm.
yes
i probably wont and waste 10 min writing a report ticket 
its just for the week 1 clear
this is the bare minimum for nightmare https://i.imgur.com/jWMB58K.png
my main still 3.6k so no nightmare this time! 

Which tbh doesn’t matter much for alts
Does the roster level matter for nightmare too?

with this you can bus nightmare, im pretty sure
and also you dont need hands with this cp
clearly not 
fucking whales
@sand marsh https://lostark.bible/character/NA/Barabrand cringe away daddy
barabrand?
wanna know the breaker name?
✅ 
whats better h/l or mid mid


aight
generally slightly weaker, but ye
Yeah
can anyone please look help channel and tell me which better? #lost-ark-help message
I dont bother with that channel
one has high base stat and 3rd line is low atk power+
but its additional instead of outgoing high
Doesn’t really matter
It’s too relatively close that someone at your gear stage should go with what’s cheaper
The chart above should answer all your questions
Main stat also doesn’t matter too much
Common flat stats are just a bonus
okayyy thx
Save 20k gold and use it elsewhere
i got 850k rn
Also doesn’t solo shop give single cut highs?
yes
it does
but i want to setup my char for future raids now
Well yeah but
so wanting the best before 600k+ accs
Most people aren’t checking that much
cuz im never gonna pay that
So you rather just run the cheap single cut highs
And spend the rest of the money elsewhere on things that will give more damage
Like ark grid
If it’s your main, you can wait and save way down the road for high-mids
it indeed is
for alts ill just buy solo shops once they get to 1700
then ill save and yeah
got enought cp for raids im doing rn anyways
ill go do all my astrogems maybe i can enable the other 2 cores i got on legendary to be 14p
would be nice
Yup
They're taking ai slop to a whole new level on yt
Car written off? Aliens and war
London has fallen
Easter Fairs here were using AI slop on the posters
They only check 2 things
cp and title/insignia

you will eventually get it, it just takes alot of time
Someone want to help me with 100 life energy potions xx
Elpon euc
meh 
currently watching the new road map vid. matt looks hella exhausted. mans looking like atlas carrying the entire western civ of lost ark on his back

yeah working as 3man group as SOLO
have you seen his eyes
🐳
o.O
Skill issue
Class issue
use skill
pushes you into boss
start charging quake smash
boss steps forward during attack/gets unstaggered
now i'm behind boss and my channeled skill is going to hit behind him instead of boss
and this just constantly happens because bosses have these stupid steps forward

it wouldn't feel so bad if half the attacks didn't push you forward into the boss
then i could at least prepare by staying further away from the boss
and the worst is when bosses get staggered/unstaggered or do some weird animation thing that momentarily removes them as a movement blocker
