[nimble gorge]

is it worth buying valtan chest for gate 1 and gate 2? I have a spreadsheet calculator for argos, and argos chest still worth. is valtan better, or les gold efficient?

[crisp turtle]

I fucked up, and i kinda need advise, idk what to do.

I was halfway through buying grudge books, im already 10 books deep.
Then i cut a grudge stone that dropped on my main, lucked my way into a 9/7 but it has grudge.

So now grudge books are irrelevant on my main... So i'm literally just buying grudge books for alts.

Idk what to do, Grudge is only going up, so if i dont buy now, it'll cost more later. But Idk if its worth buying at all, when that 100k ish gold could be used on actually useful books.

Help?

[buoyant herald]

its not gonna go up much
i'd skip it for now

[winter pawn]

Cant finish south vern quest where it asks me to do /vow emote

[limpid obsidian]

Kind of. The mats they give are worth ~75-95% of the cost to buy the chest. So for 5-25% of the chest cost you get some relic accessories/rocks.
The last gate I'd buy regardless cuz card pack. It also gives some fused leaps to offset the cost.

[buoyant herald]

you should have a vow emote book in your inventory go learn it

[winter pawn]

I dont have that emote..

[deep sorrel]

did you skip feiton

[winter pawn]

I skipped feiton yes

[buoyant herald]

got news for you then buddy
you get that in feiton

[winter pawn]

Darn

So u cant skip feiton.. kinda friends i got..

[buoyant herald]

thats why you dont skip quests on first char

[deep sorrel]

yeah skipping feiton is an alt thing

[buoyant herald]

any other char its fine tho

[winter pawn]

Ohh is that right?

[buoyant herald]

you get the emote account wide

i still wouldnt skip it cuz you need it for unas

[winter pawn]

I hope feiton isnt long.. 😆

[buoyant herald]

a few hours like any other region

[winter pawn]

Thanks a bunch

[buoyant herald]

👌

[pseudo atlas]

not sure if it's the longest but i'm pretty sure it's the worst

[buoyant herald]

how so ?

[wild jackal]

rohendel is longest because of the dungeon

[deep sorrel]

the feiton stealth mission can be pretty annoying for some people

[nimble gorge]

does valtan gate 2 give 2500, or 2000 gold from completion?

this is a picture infographic. But a different reddit post says you get 2500 gold from gate 2

[limpid obsidian]

2.5k

[sage spire]

hi guys is it worth to complete the collectibles from each zone?

[nimble gorge]

https://www.reddit.com/r/lostarkgame/comments/uawkqb/guys_i_made_a_picture_of_all_the_loot_that_you/
so this isnt actually real?

[limpid obsidian]

Yes, but no need to grind them early. Grab them when you got time to spare or need something from them.

[sage spire]

okay cuz im in loghin? first area, and just got a couple of them but i think they're mob drops right

[limpid obsidian]

That shows lower gold gain numbers than I've recorded on EUC. Chest costs are correct tho.

[deep sorrel]

basically in KR the gold from valtan was nerfed, and this infographic was based on the KR version (before it came out in NA)
when it came out in NA we got the pre-nerfed version

[nimble gorge]

ok gotcha, I just noticed the date it was posted

[fiery zinc]

how do you use the quality upgrader, no items pop up for me to upgrade quality

[limpid obsidian]

Only for relic armor/weapon.

[half thunder]

Valtan Gate 1, do groups typically take turns getting the orbs, or do they have party leader lure them all away?

[buoyant herald]

if its a group of randoms lure away
if its a competent group / static do the orbs its much fastert that way dont have to wait aroudn for wei to charge up

[half thunder]

Is it always party leader that lures?

[rose jewel]

do the actual mechanic if static
do the cheese if pug

[deep sorrel]

yeah since they have to use wei

[limpid obsidian]

Cheese is leader uses Wei and lures away orbs, then others run in and do the last stagger.
But proper method(that nobody uses in pub play) is taking one orb per player in a certain order(which does a bunch of stagger).

[half thunder]

Good enough, gonna find out how it goes the hard way

[buoyant herald]

its not even hard XDD ppl are just plain stupid

you just take orbs in pre assigned order it doesn't get easier than that

[peak wyvern]

Should I care about my gear, before I reach relic levels of gear or just focus on getting there first :^)?

[half thunder]

It can get easier, it's just hard to expect anything from randoms

[limpid obsidian]

Care a bit?
But don't invest a lot into it.

[buoyant herald]

if you dont you wont reach relic XDD

[peak wyvern]

I meant shit like quality, and other tedious crap like that

[buoyant herald]

nah not really
I'd get a decent q on wep else doesn't matter

[sly vector]

Ty will do

Again ty it’s clear that trying to learn with another character is kinda a dumb idea since I’ve put my time into this one ty very much

[limpid obsidian]

Yeah, weapon matters a little bit, Armor doesn't.

[nimble gorge]

would lost ark post a teaset/sneak peak before revealing an update for the upcoming week, even if its small qol changes? I was sondering if I have to spend all my gold on lv 4 tripods rn or if I can wait maybe for next week (get the weekly gold from reset). But if the update for tripods come in say this reset, I might straight up miss out on any lv 4 tripods

just speculation, but is it likely for tripod change to come out this month?

[deep sorrel]

if they were even the slightest bit reasonable they would give us a month's advance notice like in korea

[nimble gorge]

oh awesome, feels better already

[rose jewel]

they give us a notice / patch notes 12hrs before reset

expect nothing, no one knows, not even amazon, when tripod system is gonna come

[nimble gorge]

in general, since last update was fairly recent, I was hoping there would be a bit of time to prep

[rose jewel]

there is a lot of time to prep, because you already know the system is coming soon, when is soon? well, soon

you already know the system exists, how it works, what it does, that's enough time and info

[ripe gorge]

https://i.imgur.com/PEutKXT.png

This any good?

[wild jackal]

no

raid captain is cheap and no one uses divine

[noble ferry]

are we getting any other powerpass soon? not in the mood to have to do the story up to north vern again with my scrapper

[wild jackal]

You have no knowledge transfer?

[noble ferry]

ur able to do knowledge transfer the moment u create a character?

[wild jackal]

yea

[noble ferry]

ohhh

well, i didnt know that; that saves me a lot of trouble i guess

[wild jackal]

you still need to play story for 5 min

to get to the girl that unlocks you songs so that you can go to stronghold on that character

[coral umbra]

is it possible to copy whole chat as text in lost ark game?

[buoyant herald]

no

you could screenshot it and use some picture to text thing

[tame forum]

if i unlock a new skill preset on one character does it unlock it for the rest of my roster characters?

[deep sorrel]

nope

[primal jolt]

I just collected my 5th giants heart but the collectables window shows that I have already collected the reward for getting 5 hearts (the wealth rune). What is the dealio?

[deep sorrel]

look at the list of giant hearts you collected

does it actually say you have 5/15 and you claimed the wealth rune? do you actually have the wealth rune in your list of runes?

[primal jolt]

yeah I have the rare wealth rune, and yes it says 5/15 and has the rune marked as claimed

[deep sorrel]

which heart did you just collect

[primal jolt]

I thought you had to go to wisdom isle or does it just drop into inventory? #1

[bitter geyser]

should i get oreha's hard chests on my alts?

[deep sorrel]

yeah you're supposed to go to wisdom isle to claim it so that's pretty weird

[primal jolt]

I thought I was going to get some skill points 😤

[torpid gate]

Does anybody know why some people literally can't play competitive because of matchmaking fails?

To clarify in proving grounds competitive after hitting accept it will fall through 100% of the time

[somber plaza]

what accessories need to be swiftness for a 50/50 split in crit/swift

[coral umbra]

how much swiftness is needed to get attack/move speed cap? does swiftness affect cast speed?

[wraith basin]

you can't get 140% with swiftness alone

[coral umbra]

@wraith basin does it depend on class? what about mayhem?

[tame forum]

necklace swift and crit and probably swift on earing and ring and crit on other earing and ring

[wraith basin]

1300

[fossil linden]

It says friendly lvl 3is the highest lvl so do I have to max even the lvl 3 for igneas or this is fine?

[wraith basin]

you need to fill that bar

[deep sorrel]

trusted is the highest level, so you have to max friendly 3

[obtuse cove]

When it comes to stagger hit, is it like if a move has multiple hits then it does stagger dmg, or the dmg for all skills are static no matter how many hit

[fossil linden]

Gotcha

[coral umbra]

@fossil linden you are last level need 4579 rapport points

[deep sorrel]

usually each hit will have its own stagger

[fossil linden]

Yup

How to know if I have done the dungeons or not?

[deep sorrel]

the icons on the top left are colored in, so that means you did them

[fossil linden]

Or else it will be gray?

[deep sorrel]

yeah, if you look at a different continent's page for dungeons you didn't do, you can compare

[fossil linden]

Gotcha

All I see remaining is recipes Ig should I go and bulk buy them then?

[tame forum]

do you mean the collectibles

[fossil linden]

Yup mb

And the foods

[noble ferry]

after reaching 1370 with ur alts; do u only get them up to 1415 when ur main reaches 1460 and does the research or do u hone them whenever u have mats?

[deep sorrel]

yeah the collectibles you can just buy, but for the cooking you have to look up what to do for each one

[tame forum]

i usually just buy the collectibles bc im lazy and dont wanna farm, as for the food just follow a guide and it should be easy to complete

[fossil linden]

I c

Hmm the ones have question mark

[deep sorrel]

it is better to push alts to 1415 after the 1460 stronghold research

[fossil linden]

Do I have to discover to buy from AH/

[deep sorrel]

no, but I think some of the items have different names because amazon sucks at translating

[fossil linden]

Lol

Some items I can't find in Ah..

[deep sorrel]

nvm all the ones for west luterra are right, I just checked

[tame forum]

oh yeah I Noticed that, try to type in similar words and you should be able to find it. If u really can't just sort by adventure tome and manually look through the items

[deep sorrel]

make sure you're in the market tab and not auction house

[fossil linden]

And the undiscovered ones doesn't show how many I need

[deep sorrel]

i'll just tell you that

[fossil linden]

So if I just google and get the amount needed will it work?

[deep sorrel]

from left to right it's 25, 25, 10, 10, 4, 4, 1

[pine oasis]

should i be doing this event with my main?

[deep sorrel]

if that's your only character then yes

[paper glacier]

which party is which on p2 argos?

[pseudo atlas]

well you need at least one of each one so you can just buy one and then use it and then it'll tell you how many you need

[fossil linden]

Ty, the last ones are rpetty costly tho worth buying?

[deep sorrel]

party 1 is sun with the dinosaur (the one that needs destruction), party 2 is moon with the other thing that requires stagger

[fossil linden]

The 5th item cost 100 each

[tame forum]

the lower the amount the harder it is too drop

is 100g worth saving time or would u rather save that gold but have to farm mobs for a while

[fossil linden]

Kinda depends what for a while means xD

[deep sorrel]

up to you, when I bought my stuff I watched the market over a few days to see if the price would drop

[fossil linden]

Ig I will just buy

[tame forum]

you could get it within like 10 min or you could sit there for a few days w/o seeing anything. its rng

[pine oasis]

how do i open the event page?

[pseudo atlas]

finish the cooking first and then buy whatever you didn't get

[deep sorrel]

click the gift icon under the minimap

[fossil linden]

Hmm

Cost me like 1500 for all

[hidden lark]

Is there not a way to enter the next thronespire stage from within the stage?

[deep sorrel]

don't think so, just go out and go back in

[hidden lark]

Also every stage so far is just the exact same...?

They really created the two towers and then came up with this huh

[deep sorrel]

thronespire isn't a tower, amazon is just stupid

if you're high enough just skip to stage 25, you can get all the rewards of the previous stages

[hidden lark]

Well they never said it would be “t3 tower” just another solo content

Oh serious you can do that?

[deep sorrel]

yeah

[hidden lark]

I’ve put it off since release lol

[tame forum]

what do you thin is a good gs for stage 25

[rose jewel]

1445+

[fossil linden]

Sry I am back again, it says you have to ue lantern here to cross the pond, how I do that?

[rose jewel]

do you have a lantern

[fossil linden]

Nope

[pseudo atlas]

just use maxroll guide or something

[deep sorrel]

bring a lantern with you

[fossil linden]

How do I get one? I am using a guide but it only says use a lantern here to cross the pond..

[hexed canopy]

hey guys, did they disable all the powerpasses or only the shop ones?

[deep sorrel]

if you look at the maxroll map there's a part that says "pick up lantern at dot", go there and then backtrack

[odd granite]

so i have characters on two servers and idk what to do because im not use to mmorpg and did that.... i would delete it but is it possible to transfer items from one character to another server or something like thatyet or no?

[pseudo atlas]

what guide are you using exactly

[deep sorrel]

all powerpasses

[hexed canopy]

not possible

[hexed canopy]

alright thanks 😦 friend started to play recently, that kinda sucks for him

[fossil linden]

Oh I see it now

[hollow arch]

What to do with Level 7 gems that aren't the ones that i need ? Sell them ? or fuse them together and hope that it will be Level 8 gem that i need ?

[rose jewel]

either, or use silver and pray

[hollow arch]

Do people do that ? Is it even worth ?

[rose jewel]

some do, most dont

you yourself value the worth on that

[deep sorrel]

the safest path is just selling them

[odd granite]

Do you think it will be opssible one day?

[hexed canopy]

I once spent 7kk silver rerolling a level 7 gem and I didn't get the skill I wanted . Now what I do depends on what I need, if I have a cooldown gem and I have a character that needs a lot of cooldown skills, then I try to reroll it as I need many skills = I will settle for the first one I need, and if you need many, there is a good chance you'll get one you can use. On shadowhunter that only needs demonic skill for example, I sold the gem with the random skill it had, and bought one with demonic skill already, even if I had to put a few extra gold, as the % of getting demonic skill is pretty low (1 skill out of 24) and not worth trying to gamble with silver

[hexed canopy]

The only chance you have for that to happen, is that they merge the two servers where you have your characters on, ending up having them on the same server, or... server transfer if they will ever enable it. If you want to transfer gold you could do as Bus Sellers do, I guess

[pine oasis]

where is this quest?

[marsh plank]

Whispering islet, it says right there. Go to world map and search for it in the search box if you don’t know where that is

[rose jewel]

:/

[clear iris]

Will Beserkers tech be better than mayhem when balance patch hits?

[round sorrel]

according to a few korean players i know it's kinda meh, but you will have to get a 2nd opinion on that

[eternal zenith]

the balance patch dont make anything better than everything, they just make a few character have more option

[shell bridge]

How many races are there on the naruni gvg?

[polar shard]

I'm at 0 rapport with Nia. Can somebody tell me how to properly skip her? I have the 15 leggo of the same kind required to do it. I just dont wanna mess this up

[tame siren]

should i keep upgrading?

[echo owl]

move on to the next tier

[hot dock]

hello for some reason my gem wont auto fuse, what setting do i have to put?

[tame siren]

how

[echo owl]

you should have a handy guide quest that tells you to go to yorn

[tame siren]

ive completed yorn

[echo owl]

then you shouldve gotten the t2 gear freom the chaos dungeon

[tame siren]

ok thank you

[tame siren]

then i upgrade the gear to purple then legendary?

[echo owl]

you could

its the same +15 process

[lusty flume]

can i ask how many mats needed to go from 1430 to 1445 ? i don't understand how maxroll calc works

[modest plaza]

Best case is obv a 1 tap/worst case is obv pity
Average is basically around the 50% pity mark

[cunning perch]

How do I get trusted status in lost ark?

[pine oasis]

can you do field boss higher than your item level and claim the loot?

[normal reef]

yes but at least some of your attacks will be blocked

if you are too low it will be too hard to get contribution

[pine oasis]

im 1325 and i want to do moake which is 1415

[normal reef]

probably too low, i think the cut off is 1340 but im not sure

i think i was doing moake in party successfully around 1350

you can try though i'm not sure

[pine oasis]

arent field bosses open content?

[normal reef]

yes but you have to do damage to get contribution credit for drops

[pine oasis]

like anyone can come and attack so there will be a lot of players there

[normal reef]

at 1325 moake will one shot you with every hit and block 90%+ of your attacks

but in theory it might be possible to get drops still

[pine oasis]

is there a min. damage number for loot?

[normal reef]

yes but i don't know what it is exactly

[pine oasis]

or its just like land a hit?

[normal reef]

i think 1325 is too low still, i'd recommend something like begging people in ocean chat to do sol grande or harvest lord

but you can try if you want

if you can get a few more ilvl it will be more realistic

[pine oasis]

so field boss and adventure island have same appearance timings. which one should i go for first?

[normal reef]

adventure island for sure

[pure horizon]

am I blind or is artillerist missing from role-assignments?

[normal reef]

field boss is every hour

[frigid oracle]

how do gates work in inferno valtan? do you do both in 1 go or can you choose after clearing G1? So when people ask for G2 prog, you skip right to it?

[echo owl]

theres no checkpoints so you do both without leaving

[deep sorrel]

i also do not see artillerist in role-assignments 🤔

[normal reef]

i guess you have to main it lol

elitist arti

[ripe sedge]

Question. Should I buy and then open my Una's token chests for gold? Or forget it? I heard its super cancer to get gold from these chests now?

[deep sorrel]

i am just holding onto my una's tokens until they fix it

[near mango]

how do you change book of coordination preset in hell mode?

[ripe sedge]

Will they fix it, or forget it and screw us?

That thing isn't gonna stop bots. They play 24/7 so whats a hour of clicking to them anyway

[timid sable]

in argos p1 for the dial mech - say you are moon, you can't get rid of your stacks if he has moon under him right? have to wait for sun to transfer some stacks first?

[ancient lark]

wdym super cancer?

[ripe sedge]

When I goggled it, Reddit guys were saying they had to click every coin, and have 2k coins from Una's token chests

no alt click to use all at once

[deep sorrel]

you can transfer regardless of what argos is

[tawdry imp]

I just came to mind about something - if I knowledge transferred alts all the way to Punika do I have to do the skill point side quests (Rohendel, Feiton, Punika)? Or are they roster wide?

[deep sorrel]

skill points are roster wide

[tawdry imp]

Awesome, thank you!

[restive mortar]

when crystalline aura expires, do you have to re-save the bifrost points if you renew again

[tawdry imp]

No

[restive mortar]

thanks

[solemn plume]

I've just ran Nagi's rapport for 2.2k gold, I want to buy my last legendary book and the market balance doesn't update WTF?

[ripe sedge]

Question about crew. I see I have 2 legendary Tragon crew in my SH shop. Are they the BIS for Tragon or nah?

[opaque ore]

For people with more than 6 Alts, what level do you stop on characters that dont collect gold? 1370? 1415?

[fair mantle]

Depends on your current roster and other priorities

[opaque ore]

my main roster is 1490, 1445, 1430, 1430, 1400, 1385 - going to make alts 1430s

i have 5 others 1370 and 1000s

[fair mantle]

I would keep the 1370s parked tbh and focus on other things to prep before Kakul such as 2 leg books

No point in wasting gold and silver on them rn

[opaque ore]

i just hate yoho right now with all the rainbow new chars

despise playing GRs with 1370s

[fair mantle]

You don't have to do Yoho on them if you don't like it lol, just run lopang

[opaque ore]

but i miss out on the free GHLs

[ripe sedge]

You and me both. The other day, it literally took me a HOUR to get one Yoho kill

Anyways, does anyone know BIS crew for Tragon?

[fair mantle]

I mean that's the definition of burning yourself out

[opaque ore]

yeah i started doing rested bonus, now i am thinking about skipping rested bonus too lol

[fair mantle]

I never do guardians on chars outside my main 6

[opaque ore]

too bad my non main 6 have 200k shards and sitting on 1k GHLs. but i dont want to play them

[ripe sedge]

Feed those GHL's to your main alts to get them to 1430+ at least

[opaque ore]

those are bound

i wish

[true stirrup]

What does the in game "Main Character" selection change exactly except saying it's your main ?

(in the character selection)

[opaque ore]

nothing

[true stirrup]

Alright, ty

[idle needle]

I think you just can't delete it unless you specify another main

[true stirrup]

Yeah i think so. I was wondering if there was any advantage but it looks like there isn't any

[pine oasis]

is there anything like failstacking for honing?

[true stirrup]

No, only artisan energy, basically a pity growing with your fails and when it reaches 100%, the next hone will be a success.

You can't swap it between gears, so there is no failstacking

[remote crescent]

is there any point in buying multiple pets besides for stronghold dispatch and looks?

[true stirrup]

Get multiples stats for your different characters i guess

[pine oasis]

why is the node greyed out even though its at epic now?

[frail magnet]

Do people not run Velganos guardian raid?

[pine oasis]

when do i start using solar items?

[deep sorrel]

you would have to equip it to get the effect

[pine oasis]

i have it equipped

[rain meadow]

Generally, people do not, no

[deep sorrel]

oh then it might just be because you're viewing it in your engraving inventory

if you look at it in your equipped engravings it should show the correct level

[pine oasis]

oh i see. ty

[frail magnet]

Now I know why... thanks..

[cobalt edge]

Hey, I've got some dud ability stones I can't destroy or throw out or dismantle, anything else I can do? D:

[rain meadow]

Vendor

[pine oasis]

when do i start using solar items?

these

[frail magnet]

if im not wrong these are T3 materials

[deep sorrel]

you can use a calculator (like this one https://lost-ark.maxroll.gg/upgrade-calculator) to figure it out

[cobalt edge]

Thanks!

[pine oasis]

yes

[deep sorrel]

but iirc you don't really need them until like 1415+

[pine oasis]

so i just hone gear by raw clicking it?

[deep sorrel]

yeah

[rain meadow]

Armor you generally dont use solars, but people use them for weapon on occasion

[pine oasis]

what level for weapon?

[rain meadow]

Up to you lol

[pine oasis]

give me a fair idea

[rain meadow]

Some people just full send it, some people dont use it unless it gets them to 50%, some people don't use it unless it hits 33%, some people just raw dog it

[frail magnet]

I cant afford 2 missing preordained pieces, should I just get two missing Chosen pieces, upgrade them, and then transfer to when I can afford preordained?

[rain meadow]

Cant afford meaning no gold?

[frail magnet]

I need Argos blood 😦

[rain meadow]

Oh

Nornally on the first week people craft 2-3 argos pieces and 3 chosen pieces

[pine oasis]

whats this punika power pass?

[rain meadow]

Then transfer when they get more blood

[frail magnet]

two chosen would cost me total 20x oreha empyrean and also 200g total, idk if I should just wait since rest is in like two days?

Ohh ok! Yes I got my first pieces earlier this week, thanks! Wanted to doublecheck 😂 I dont hae much gold.

[rain meadow]

Powerpasses are currently disabled, but it will autocomplete the story up to punika on one character and give them a 1302 set of gear

[pine oasis]

Ohhh!

is it possible for shadowhunter to change into deathblade on same chara?

[deep sorrel]

no

[pine oasis]

and any idea when power pass will be enabled again?

[deep sorrel]

nope

[frail magnet]

I hope soon because I cant use hyper express😦

[pine oasis]

hyper express?

[frail magnet]

You pick one hero thats at least 1302 item level and it will give you a variety of quests for which you get neat rewards and help you to get up to 1370 "easily"

[pine oasis]

oh the event thingi

[olive saddle]

Yo-yo

[pine oasis]

it it usable on 1 chara only?

[deep sorrel]

yes

[pine oasis]

IT WORKED!!! got the moake loot at 1340 😄

[half thunder]

You can do Valtan Gate 1 and 2 at 1415?

[pine oasis]

what event is this one?

[deep sorrel]

are you asking about all four

[pine oasis]

arent they all similar?

[deep sorrel]

yes, valtan normal gates 1 and 2 at 1415

[half thunder]

Why do some places call it phases, and some places call them gates?

[deep sorrel]

each island is its own thing

[deep sorrel]

like in-game? or just what people like to call them

people will call things whatever they want

[pine oasis]

how hard is it to get 2nd chara to punika?

[flint glade]

is there a way to get the white/green variant of the Sorceress Alar skin set?

[deep sorrel]

is it an actual variant or did you just see someone's dyed version

[cobalt edge]

you dye it :x

[flint glade]

oh. thank you, i always bought my alar skin sets with blue crystals so i never knew you could only dye thsoe that you bought with royal crystals

[cobalt edge]

Alar Blue Crystal set should be dyeable - least my one is. :x

[rain meadow]

Pretty sure you can dye both variants

[elder anchor]

if I'm cutting a stone and the red says 25% is that 25% to fail or succeed? (fail meaning no node)

[pseudo atlas]

faceting only shows success rate

[pine oasis]

is it possible to do this map solo?

[rain meadow]

Yes

[pine oasis]

any advantages of it doing it in party?

[deep sorrel]

if all party members have a map then you get the rewards from everyone's maps

[fiery zinc]

do guardian raids even drop much without a soul to harvest?

[deep sorrel]

they drop a teeny tiny amount of destruction and guardian stones

[fiery zinc]

no engraving or item chance?

[rain meadow]

Without the soul you get like 3 destruction stones and 8 guardian stones

Rune drop is always available tho

[balmy wadi]

is making a igniter sorc alt better than reflux?

[rain meadow]

Reflux is cheaper

[deep sorrel]

it depends on what you want out of the alt

[late jay]

if 4 players enter, 4x rewards

[crude tangle]

how much honor shards can u get daily per character on average

[green thorn]

is it just me or i can't connect

[inner wing]

Random pack or
Mysterious snow/Elegant something pack

[frail magnet]

Should I keep these until I am 1445?

[south jay]

does anyone have a Weak point tier list for classes? im curious about SH DI weakpoint and GS weak point potential

[bitter geyser]

where is this quest?

[near mango]

sorry if this is a stupid question, but how do I change my preset while inside hell valtan?

alt Z or K dont give me the option to

[maiden locust]

P

[bitter geyser]

guide has bad translation, https://lostarkcodex.com/us/quest/6003054/

[rain meadow]

In hell mode you should be qble to alt Z and just toggle two different setups

If it doesnt already automatically update the current setup you have qfter you hit save

[restive mortar]

Does lost ark run well on a Chromebook?

[steel dew]

question: can someone explain the whole awakening-before-encounter thing

to trigger dominion fang before

[echo owl]

that’s exactly what it is

you activate the set effect that is all

[winter pawn]

soo are they planning on fixing power pass or nah

[pseudo atlas]

next news we're gonna get about powerpasses is probably going to be day before weekly reset

[winter pawn]

ugh i want alt so bad to ramp up silver

[frail magnet]

Stronghold ship missions, should I run some specific special missions because they kinda sucks? I heard that its okay to run "cubes" that way. Is that correct?

[peak wyvern]

What cards should I focus on getting? What should I also look for engraving wise for the Stone that's equipable?

[brazen zodiac]

Is there a convenient place to test out stagger? Visible bar that can be reset quickly , doesn’t go down from just one or two moves (unless they’re just that high+engrav & runes), let’s you keep your relevant gear on

[hearty wyvern]

I have the same question

[vale elm]

Seeing you are a Deathblade main, you want preferably at first try get the cards of the "Lostwind Cliff set" to 12 Awakening bonus, before that you can equip any card set you want (e.g HP% card sets)
Your end goal will be the "Light of Salvation" card set but that will be very far in the future
If you get any legendary card pack that says "Select 1 and obtain", DO NOT OPEN them yet and keep them in ur inventory
You want to use them for Salvation at the very end

As for stones, thats class dependent, ask in #deathblade

[vale elm]

For you, same card set as above
And for stone, ask in #artillerist

[hearty gulch]

Is there a bis 1430 setup like 1415?

[rain meadow]

Idk add 2 more +17s?

[gilded sparrow]

The betrayal set is the chaos dungeon one right? with the exploding circle?

[paper glacier]

yes

[gilded sparrow]

Do people use it for boss rushes? not that it really matters too much

[zinc lion]

Is there a specific technical help area?

[paper glacier]

try it itll prob be good

[rain meadow]

There was, but i think that channel got removed/archived

[zinc lion]

Bc I may have just corrupted a character

[pseudo atlas]

what is the issue exactly

[rain meadow]

That you should probably go to amazon's discord and/or submit a ticket

[zinc lion]

So basically one character is redoing yudia so I went into nm sapira cave, now when I try to log into that Character, the game gives me a 105 error data message while crashing out the game

No other Character is affected by this brw

[spiral thistle]

Yeah that is some issue support has to solve for you. Most likely just move your character out of that instance and try doing it again

[zinc lion]

Game won't even load the Character. Sigh I hate dealing with their support they're so unhelpful

[fervent whale]

no, unless you use something like Nvidia streaming

[hardy comet]

Why I can't see the valtan server?

[hushed sleet]

Is there any way I can revert my dye back to its original dye?

[rain meadow]

If i recall, there is a remove dye button

[hushed sleet]

Ok will check again, never notice that one

[rain meadow]

Yeah, the market requires the item to be undyed so there must be some way to remove the dyes

[crude tangle]

how do people on like utube have hundreds of thousands of gold. how is that even possible

considering it's so expensive to gear ur main and alts etc

[spiral thistle]

Bussing and tons of high ilvl alts

You can easily make 100k/week from bussing so having several 100k gold isn't a far stretch at that point

Even without bussing, like myself, my weekly gold income, in raw gold only, is 63k

[crude tangle]

wow damn, can i see a pic of ur roster?

[spiral thistle]

Obviously only the first 6 are the ones that generate raw gold while the other 3 can add some gold via selling w/e drops they find on that are worth anything on AH

[frail magnet]

should I pick any specific ones?

[tame forum]

I would pick fearless knight, since that has a chance to give you both seria and solos, which are part of the card set that gives u crit rate

[frail magnet]

thanks:D

got seria at least

[late jay]

and fearless has less cards in it. so higher chance to get seria/solas i think

[ionic garnet]

What's the go to place to farm gathering to lvl 20?

[maiden locust]

Yoyo quick q does getting the 1370 pass have a time limit?

[crude tangle]

huh. im so confused wdym only the first 6 are the ones that generate raw gold 😂

they're all high ilv wouldnt they all generate a lot

[spiral thistle]

No character beyond 6 get gold from e.g Legion. 7th character only get accessories and materials.

[crude tangle]

ahh k, that makes sense

[spiral thistle]

Bard ofc since it's highest ilvl. I just enjoy playing Gunlancer a lot.

[crude tangle]

ah kk

i was tripping and wrote warlancer lol

[spiral thistle]

Understandable since I use the old class names

[maiden locust]

😔

[crude tangle]

yes, u can see by clicking the gift box on the right. its part of the event

[maiden locust]

Mind just telling(kinda dont have the game installed)

[crude tangle]

yeah there is a time limit

even tho the pass is currently unuseable. if u do the steps u still get it in ur inventory and u can still redeem it

so it should work once they fix the powerpass problem

[maiden locust]

Og theres a powerpass bug, lovely

Whats the limit?

[crude tangle]

wdym limit

[maiden locust]

This

[naive whale]

I don't think it quite has the damage for that. It turns stuff like anguished (yes I'm still doing anguished every day, fuck you omnium star) into a hilarious cakewalk, but 2/3 ethers are kinda shit for boss rush.
TL:DR not worth. Especially not atm with 50% uptime. Just go like NF for the raw damage bonus.

[crude tangle]

28th/9 pre sure
still a lot of time

[alpine charm]

what's more efficient between rest bonus and dispatching?

[maiden locust]

Ah ye ez then i dont have to install the game yet tyty

[fallow trail]

when im transferring skill trees from my inventory onto my current gear, what does the "material gear" mean?

[cunning perch]

how to get Platinum skin for deadeye?

[tender badge]

buy it via auction house

[cunning perch]

oof ok, Once una and Abyssals and Argos are done what can i do to make gold?

[pseudo atlas]

it means you can't try to transfer tripods directly from that gear to any other gear

material gear is gear you use as material for transferring tripods to the base gear

[fallow trail]

ok ty

[tender badge]

legion raids, golden room in chaos dung

crystals for gold 😄

[cunning perch]

Ion have crystals and I cant do legion raids yet :c

how do I guarantee golden room in chaos?

[pearl ibex]

Is there a way to check that on which character I have accepted a certain quest? Or do I need to go through all manually

[silver moss]

Guys, is royal crystal conversion to gold supposed to be withheld for 3 days on your main? I thought it was only for powerpass characters?

[pseudo atlas]

rc conversion to gold is withheld for 3 days for any character, powerpass chars are supposed to have una's tasks weekly gold withheld for 3 days

[charred sorrel]

how much hp is 1 vigor point?

[pearl ibex]

1% max hp per 140 vigor

[charred sorrel]

ty ty

[tender badge]

you cant

[pearl ibex]

Gold rooms are also a pretty pitiful amount of gold

[tender badge]

ow and there is tookie island and adventure island for gold

[worldly slate]

Hey guys, how do people get easily 3x3 engraving? I am playing almost daily but never good “correct” stats on accessories. Do people just buy from market?

[pseudo atlas]

yes

[worldly slate]

Oh that makes sense. I thought people get a lot of good stats from chaos, guardian raids etc but it seems very rare to get the correct stats on accessories

[maiden locust]

the odds of you dropping exactly what you need for your build are like 0, u just collect up monies and buy your whole build

[dry snow]

do i need to do main quests on my alt after vern? like do i need to do shushire/yorn etc?

[snow wadi]

You can use knowledge transfer to level alts to 50 in your stronghold
If you want access to rohendel dungeons you'll have to play through rohendel again
Same goes for Yorn, Feiton, etc
but you can also skip those regions by just honing past them -> For example get a new vern alt and hone right to 600 to skip rohendel and start with Yorn right away

There's plenty of strats to skip storyquests

[dry snow]

thought i need to do them once on my roaster

like i can access them across all my chars if i do it once

[patent quiver]

hello didnt we get punika pass with arcanist or I read it wrong

[pseudo atlas]

yes we did

[late jay]

we did

[maiden locust]

https://i.imgur.com/kXJ9erJ.png

any idea where i find this quest?

[patent quiver]

is that only works on arcanists?

[pseudo atlas]

no, check pins

[patent quiver]

alrgiht thanks have a ncie day

[flat dagger]

Yes, but the whole quest line starts with the first guardian. Check the 4 different islands + Arthetine (on the map) which are used for guardian raids, you will see a quest on one of them. Continue through all quests until you reach Velganos.

[maiden locust]

[flat dagger]

Every single guardian has a quest associated with it.

[pine oasis]

t3 +15 rare transfer to legendary is also +15?

[flat dagger]

No, 15 -> 6. That does also increase your honing chances again.

[pine oasis]

ehhh wtf

rare to epic is?

[spiral thistle]

The base level isn't the same. 1:1 transfer is only if base items are same ilvl

[pine oasis]

how do i make gold? im sitting on 22 gold

[sweet fulcrum]

when does daily listing limit for crystals reset?

[flat dagger]

It's only Rare/Epic -> Legendary that acts like that. Rare -> Epic is 1:1.

[spiral thistle]

Should be daily reset

[spiral thistle]

Check maxrolls gold guide

[sweet fulcrum]

bought before reset and now cant buy again 😕

[graceful kettle]

wait, i cant use bundle for gold coin? xD

[flat dagger]

Adventure Islands
Abyssal Dungeons
Abyssal Raids
Legion Raids
Chaos Dungeon Gold & Red portals
Engravings & Accessory sales

[flat dagger]

The new Una's Gold coin, no... Spam time.

[graceful kettle]

lmao wtf i missed one week cause i was on vacation lmao.
ahahaah ty tho

kinda sad to spam 72 times xD

[hushed sleet]

Feels like I spend too much honing alts, when do we stop? can't save gold to get legendary engravings and acc for my main

1430 is a good parking spot? honing those +16 +17 hitting pitty is such a pain

[hexed plinth]

Always focus on ur main first imo

I got 5x3 1477 on main and I am now focusing on alta

[hushed sleet]

Sorc stuffs so expensive

[hexed plinth]

And yes 1430 and 1445 are good parking spots

[snow wadi]

Spending gold on your alt should be an investment for more gold gain in the future so breakpoints should be 1370/1415/1430/1445

Of course you shouldn't spend gold on your alts if your main needs it

[hushed sleet]

yup I push them up because I actually enjoy play them rather than my main sorc. Sorc sitting at 1480atm 4x3 only

Already hit pitty to 16 on my 2 armors on pally

[hexed plinth]

Get those legendary books for 5x3

[hushed sleet]

Yup I think I'll focus back on sorc when I reach 1430 on the two alts I enjoy playing. Thanks

[hexed plinth]

[hushed sleet]

but still can't beleive I pitty 16 on 2 armors just today lol

[hexed plinth]

[slim beacon]

do you guys recommend fusing south vern blue map into higher maps ?

[snow wadi]

There are calculators you could use to calculate the gold worth of a map
I highly doubt fusing is worth it, but you can do the math if u want

[dry snow]

At t3 abyss raid, do u need to do only 1 difficulty or u can do normal and hard?

[vast oriole]

Only one

[dry snow]

oh i see

[pine oasis]

why is the effect greyed out?

which items make good amount of gold on market?

[silver rain]

the lvl effect highlight is only on 'engraving' tab

[pine oasis]

oh i see.

[inner wing]

Engraving recipes
Skins/pets/mounts
Gems

[naive whale]

can't flip

[charred sorrel]

can anyone explain to me how reskin tickets work again? does it stay "activated" until you reskin one character in your roster? or is it activated only on one chosen character?

[buoyant herald]

you use it in your inventory

and then can use it on any char you want

[inner wing]

The same as a powerpass (when they were still working)

[charred sorrel]

ahh thank you thank you! i thought they're locked into one character once i decide to use it

[sage sparrow]

Heya, with stronghold honing buffs and 20% books

is it better to go all 15 or still push 2 pieces to 17?

[subtle helm]

What are the green and blue rarity wood and stone used for?

[silver rain]

2 pieces to 17 is still somewhat cheaper cuz less hone

[silver rain]

certain crafting recipes use them, or you can exchange them to white version

[regal dirge]

How much materials i lose if i wait for 40% rested on my alts and do chaos dungeons/guardians then instead of doing it without rested

[subtle helm]

Think of it as getting 66% of the rewards for 33% of the time spent.

[subtle helm]

I see, I think I'll convert them so I don't have to life skill for ship repairs

[pine oasis]

what mats do i need for transferring skills to gear?

[brave spear]

Can I do the legion raid gates out order?

[marble sand]

If you meant Tripods, just silver

[marble sand]

if you've unlocked both, you can clear say, Vykas before doing Valtan, yes

[paper glacier]

https://i.imgur.com/FWgk5jd.jpeg

who uses this accessory if anyone

[brave spear]

But not like g2 then g1 then g3 for example? Has to be 1 2 3?

[marble sand]

correct

[maiden locust]

Hello, I have a few questions:

1. Is there any benefits to buying card duplicates from merchants?
2. Do I keep stones of endurance or just facet the ones that seem most impactful to my dps?

[vapid warren]

is there still a gold hold for royal to gold transfer?

[paper glacier]

yes if you want to work on awakening/enhancing a card set to get more bonuses off them

2 enhance the stones that have the engravings that ur class needs, check maxroll.gg

[inner wing]

1. To awaken the said cards and to obtain CardExp
2. As a Support, Vitality is kind of important for your heals+shields. Try to not use a stone with a rarity/tier that's too low for your ilvl. You can dismantle or discard the stones you deem useless

[maiden locust]

So it's safe to say, visiting each merchant in every rotation is something I should regularly do, to stock up on cards?

[paper glacier]

YES

[maiden locust]

Okay, I will do that. I'm still leveling so I haven't unlocked the higher level areas yet

[paper glacier]

better to get them done now than later cause once you have a bunch of alts/adventure tome stuff to work on, you definitely dont wanna waste time

[inner wing]

It's not necessary or ultra useful but it's good

Seria, Thar and Wei cards are the most important cards merchants sell

[cobalt edge]

what happens when I click okay? 😮

[pine oasis]

this one

[snow wadi]

Uh, once you have alts you have more bifrosts available to farm merchants
So I personally wouldnt recommend bothering with thoose unless its for the card sets you need/want

[inner wing]

Another piece of gear with tripods and silver

[paper glacier]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jnbsTlaFNmwx8lZfl43yOTV9KtRqzZeHLOtEpLn4h8s/htmlview?pru=AAABf0Nu8yI*HwqulycJYYVYWyZp3L8B6g# @maiden locust

[pine oasis]

oh

[paper glacier]

very helpful google doc

[inner wing]

Powder of sage is optional for tripods transfer

[silver rain]

you go to customization screen but cant finalize it cuz you dont have ticket

[maiden locust]

thank you so much. at what point shall I start investing in engravings? i'm combat level 40 now

[inner wing]

T3

[maiden locust]

I'm running into a problem where I've hoarded all bags/chests and whatnot

so I don't regret opening them alrdy

[paper glacier]

after your t3 at 1370, put together what you need with the drops u get till then

[maiden locust]

okay so the game actually starts in the endgame

leveling is just the surface

[paper glacier]

https://lost-ark.maxroll.gg/category/build-guides#

yea leveling is just time waste unless ur interested in the story

[maiden locust]

my g key is gonna break by the time i'm lvl 55

Thanks for the help

[paper glacier]

make a macro using your keyboard or mouse software to spam g if you have it. it might not be allowed so dont take my word for it but usually people dont get caught for it. the whole spamming g thing a pretty bad little thing some people dislike in this game like myself

[maiden locust]

knowing people who got banned for trivial reason, permanently, and not getting helped from support

I'm gonna pass on that, thanks 😔

[velvet stream]

I verified the integrity of the files after getting a EAC offline and yet i got this 2 more times after it today. Wondering if there's any other solution?

[eternal zenith]

from my experience, these thing happened randomly and i dont think there's a cure for it. You can awlays blame eac for this

[velvet stream]

Damn

[ripe sedge]

Curious guys... whats this bright flash? T3 Buss Rush bosses die in 1 hit when this bright flash happens.

[velvet stream]

lost two of my rested cuz of this thats just unfortunate

[paper glacier]

its wave completion, are ur teammates insa killing them

[ripe sedge]

I don't remember any bright flashes like that when killing bosses though. Is it new?

And yes, the 1480 sharpshooter was murdering the bosses instantly.

Other 3 (myself included) were <1400

So makes me wonder if there's a Sharpshooter skill that insta-kills bosses with big bright flash or something

[umbral belfry]

The game wont stop giving me kharmine island souls, how do i get rid of them 😤

[snow wadi]

turn em in

[umbral belfry]

can you turn in the duplicates?

Damn, that's big. Thank god

[marble vault]

How much ilvl do you get from t3 honing +14 to +15?

[ripe sedge]

5 ilvl's on the individual gear

then at 16+, you get 15 ilvls per individual gear hone

1400 - 1405 - 1410 - 1415 (+15 gear)
1430 - 1445 - 1460 - 1475 - 1490 (+20 gear)

[sand chasm]

up to +15 0.83 overall ilvl +16 and up 2.5 overall ilvls

[marble vault]

Should supports go +17 everything for 1445? Or less on weapon, more on armour?

[sand chasm]

just go all +17

then you can stop honing weapon and go armor only

and invest in relic gear quality upgrades

[ripe sedge]

You still need to hone weapon to get 1490+

[lone wing]

Are skill upgrades linear or exponential? is it worth having more lvl 11 skills or prioritize geiing lvl 12 skills first?

RE DB btw if that helps

[sand chasm]

get all armor to +21 and you dont have to

only 4 pieces actually to +21 fort 1490

if weapon is +19

[ripe sedge]

Thats true. Although wouldn't it be more expensive in terms of gold / oreha stones / shards to level armor at 19 - 20 - 21 than a weapon from 17 to 18?

[sand chasm]

depends on luck

but armor has more advantages for bard than a weapon

any supp really

[ripe sedge]

Fair enough

[sand chasm]

also once abrel comes out supp can make abrel weapon, reducing upgrade level by 6 which raises the honing chance significantly

[stuck dirge]

ayo, if anyone has legendary judgement rune in stronghold pls lemme know, (zinnervale), can pay gold

[maiden locust]

I have 2000 pirate coins, is there anything I should buy right now at the merchant at sea? like Essence of the ocean

never mind

[real radish]

any1 know the most common awakening combination on thr lostwind set

[ancient lark]

comeback when you have few hundred thousand coins

[maiden locust]

[frank wedge]

how does the battle xp boost in the stronghold work? i got up to level 57, how do i unlock it for level 58 and 59?

[outer mason]

It's based on your highest combat level in your roster, for example if your main is lvl 60 (X):

• Any lvl 58 (X-2) character gets +50% XP
• Any lvl 57 (X-3) character gets +100% XP
• Any lvl 56 (X-4) character or below gets +150% XP

[frank wedge]

how would i unlock it for level 59?

[outer mason]

I don't think there's a research for level 59

[frank wedge]

gotcha, thanks dude

[sage fern]

Hi daebak boy

[south jay]

what is this icon from

is it salvation stacks?

[buoyant herald]

hover over it but yeah

[slim nacelle]

does anyone know when does vernese exploring ship spawns? i have read top of every hour does tht mean like events every 1 hour and such? like 8/9/10 etc.?

[dire bone]

Yes

[slim nacelle]

so at the START of every hour ok ty

[high stone]

Did they fix punika pass?

[slim nacelle]

ahahhhaa, no

[stoic rose]

do u have to manually sail to the event island or is there a way to tp there

[high stone]

Bruh 😂

[slim nacelle]

i have 2 weeks with a striker waiting to powerpass, im not mad 🙂

[inner wing]

You can place a bifrost just outside the island

[amber folio]

[south jay]

took it from a video

[south jay]

im running hallucination brother

[amber folio]

[high stone]

I can’t decide which char to make so same 😂😂

[south jay]

kek

[south jay]

still does decent DPS

[amber folio]

yea probably

[true stirrup]

Can I do the start of the main story with stronghold powerpassed characters ? I need 5 copies of Solas card, but i have no slot left to create a new char, i have 6 alts powerpassed / Stronghold knowledge

[maiden locust]

No, knowledge transfer completes main story

[true stirrup]

Ugh, okay ty :/

[buoyant herald]

gonna have to either delete 1 cahr or buy 1 slot can just delete the char after getting solas and go again

but 5 solas runs

[true stirrup]

Yeah, not lucky with card packs. I'll still try south vern with my alts to try my luck tho, if i get a Delain Armen, only 2 solas cards left

I can't delete a char, they are all t3.

[small coral]

any1 knows how much this is worth cause theres nothing in AH in EUC appreciate any help 😄

[true stirrup]

I just found some in AH EUC

[small coral]

ah my bad didnt adjust the quali settings nvm

[ancient lark]

what class use spirit absorb?

[ionic sparrow]

Someone that cant afford real 5x3 so he takes spirit absorb as 5th

[amber folio]

gl

[true stirrup]

Striker Deathblow can use it or any powerful class with low mobility, but it's more like a QoL engraving, meta players will always go for %dmg engravings over QoL

[amber folio]

i use sa

[split kayak]

if i skipped feiton, can i still able to do leapstone una there?

[buoyant herald]

no

if its your first char you wont be able to complete south vern either

[rough whale]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/453163801475284993/977347968879456266/dismantleguide.png

am i safe to set up this auto-dismantle as a new player? i dont wanna miss out on any important stuff lol

[mellow wigeon]

when using judgement and conviction which rune do u activate first?

[blazing plover]

For the pet farm, you need at least 10 pets to unlock the skins from grind?

[mellow wigeon]

is it judgement?

[mental seal]

Conviction is first

[mellow wigeon]

oh ok thank you

[frigid flare]

rarest title out?

[thorny bane]

When will powerpass come back

[buoyant herald]

either valtan hellmode deathless ones or some dumb achevement title no one cares about

[frigid flare]

XD ty

[buoyant herald]

👌 but yeah if you wanna flex title you gotta do valtan hell deathless

[split kayak]

no it's my 5th char

so still have to do feiton msq? so i can do una there?

[buoyant herald]

you still need to do feiton for unaz 😄

[split kayak]

[silver rain]

if you have done them at least once you dont need to finish the whole msq just enuf to unlock maps

[split kayak]

oh!

good to know! thank you so much

[maiden locust]

Do I have to charter out of the sea if I want to visit, let's say, wandering merchants in east luterra

Like, I can't go from Changhun instantly to Luterra through triports right

[silver rain]

yes you could use ocean liner from anikka to luttera, or if you have alts you can just park them in each continent

[maiden locust]

ty!

[inner wing]

Bifrosts

[normal reef]

is there somewhere that has lists of what the options for providence hearts are

like the rapport merchants in towns

[normal reef]

ok i ended up finding it by searching rapport chest in lostarkcodex

[maiden locust]

powerpasses enabled?

[tame siren]

should i do this?

[silver rain]

yes

[elder anchor]

is heavy armor + strong will + fortitude overkill for gvg? I also have the -14% dmg from players card set, so I'm wondering if I should swap fortitude for like awakening or a dps engraving

[amber girder]

whats the most cost efficient way to buy pheons atm?

[maiden locust]

what do you mean?

these are your options

[amber girder]

just wondering if it was cheaper to buy it via gold (blue crystals) or buy the weekly cyrstal 5% bonus pack for 4500 rc

[maiden locust]

I mean one is free, the other one costs money

[maiden locust]

'free'

[silver rain]

not really considering how chaotic it is and how fast you die.

[maiden locust]

using in game gold to buy blue crystals = free compared to buying blue crystals for cash

yeah okay

[lethal linden]

Anyway to remove this ?

for future transactions

[maiden locust]

it says on the top why gold isn't available - not just for you, it's for everyone

[lethal linden]

it says Certain users xD

[maiden locust]

oh lol, sorry, just seen it - I thought it was for any currency exchange transaction

[hoary burrow]

Someone know what the set is that makes the lightning field surround your character to pulse dmg?

[dusk veldt]

betrayal

[hoary burrow]

ty

[silver rain]

certain users = everyone that is using F4 rc to gold

[hoary burrow]

is that like what everyone uses during chaos on like every class?

[lethal linden]

kekw

@hoary burrow i use it on my pala only

[dusk veldt]

pretty much yea

[hoary burrow]

fair enough

[dusk veldt]

What do you use on other classes

[lethal linden]

Normal set xD

[dusk veldt]

which one is that?

entrophy set in chaos dungeon 💀

[lethal linden]

Entropy on my Blade

well my blade wep is +22 so i dont need dat shiit xD 1 shotting everything

[dusk veldt]

How many back attacks you hitting in chaos dungeon bruh

[lethal linden]

its 1 shot anyway so it doesnt matter

[hoary burrow]

omg... im trying it on my arti for the first time, it's without a doubt the best chaos clear ive ever done, what the heck, i stopped attacking as soon as it proc, it does all the work, its so good

[silver rain]

yes pair it with preemptive and its pretty much slacking time

[wraith raft]

Are guilds server based? Or can I join a guild that's on another server? (Slen vs Zinnervale for instance)

[wraith basin]

server based

[tame siren]

where can i craft the equipment with this?

[wraith basin]

sword icon npc in bottom right of the city you're in

[tame siren]

it jumps from t1 to t3 gear

oh i need to be in yorn

[silver rain]

840 abyssal crafter is in Yorn

[wraith basin]

👍

[trail steppe]

how long should buying stuff from the market take? I know its usually instant, but Ive bought two shard pouches by now and I still havent received it in my mail. Its been about 2-3 mins

[simple lion]

thank you

[trail steppe]

Did the market just scammed me out of 2k gold

[silver rain]

delete your old mails. if your mailbox is full you wont be getting new mail until they've been cleared out

[trail steppe]

ty

[simple lion]

so... outside of playing on alts, what exactly is there to do once you do your daily stuff? like your dungeons/raids and what not

do you just do islands?

[buoyant herald]

some horizontal stuff or go touch some grass

[white slate]

does the reskin ticket really expire in sept 28?

[buoyant herald]

if it says that it does then it does

[white slate]

i have 1 from a previous event now from login. they both expire sep 28

[simple lion]

What defines "horizontal stuff"? just completion and what not with the collectables?

[buoyant herald]

yeah island souls igneas masterpieces all that shit

[simple lion]

ah gotcha

[buoyant herald]

some worth stuff there but takes a long time

[outer mason]

pretty much anything that isn't increasing your item level

[simple lion]

was kinda hoping for something like maps from POE but guess islands are essentially that just a bit slower

[true finch]

hey guys, i reach the lvl 50 today, how i get the vern pass?

[buoyant herald]

its in your mail
but all passes are disabled till further notice

[outer mason]

complete north vern story quests

[astral root]

Note that pass can't be used rn

[simple lion]

welp that's unlucky i guess that you're heavily locked in progression/can't just grind it out from my perspective

[buoyant herald]

what do you mean

[outer mason]

Powerpasses are disabled because they were being exploited

(see pinned message)

[buoyant herald]

no

fuu ik abot passes i mean this

[simple lion]

did i misunderstand 🤔 someone said "pretty much anything that isn't increasing your item level"

[true finch]

Ohh i see, so i have to finish all story quests and i can get the powerpass?

[tight tartan]

How do I check what server I'm on

[simple lion]

which means you can't just keep grinding the game out after you do the main activities

[astral root]

Some items in horizontal aren't gated by daily or weekly lockouts (tower is a good example of this)

Or only partially gated

[buoyant herald]

well yeah but you still get damage boost from those mainly getting skill points kind a dumb but most of them are locked behind horizontal content

[astral root]

If you also want to keep grinding the game out you can do Infinite chaos dungeon as well

[simple lion]

but aren't you still limited to weekly buy limits

[buoyant herald]

thats a waste of time XD

[buoyant herald]

you are but the limits are too high to hit

[astral root]

Technically yes but it is more content after dailies and what Tank said

[simple lion]

fair

[astral root]

I find as well the more alts you have the more gameplay you get as well so

[buoyant herald]

yeah got 7 t3 alts so dont even do all dailes every day XD

[astral root]

There's also card runs in abyssals you can do as well

[simple lion]

Yeah.... i don't mind post 50 storyline progression but everything up till then is dreadful

[buoyant herald]

yeah it is 😄

[astral root]

Thank God for KT and powerpass

Too bad the later is dead for now

[buoyant herald]

hopefully they fix them this week

[simple lion]

yeah ngl this sorta just kills the game for me lmao

[buoyant herald]

you only get 1 pass XD
gonna have to level other chars normally if you want more anyway

[simple lion]

cause it just amounts to "log in, do dailies on xyz log out"and repeat indefinitely x_x

[astral root]

it's kinda the basis of a lot of modern mmos nowadays, if yopu want something else go do runs in elden ring or grind out an action game without dailies/weeklies lockout

like I said as well you can knowledge transfer any level 10 character a few times (you just have to get stronghold song from Neria or w/e) once you get gold

[simple lion]

fair. o

i'll just continue playing for the time being

[astral root]

also as well if you're REALLY not a storyline enjoyer from lv50 onwards after your first character you can skip quite a bit of storylines if you don't care for chaos/abyssals (i skip Rohendal every fucking time)

[simple lion]

like i said, post 50 it's not bad, pre 50

[astral root]

oh yeah you can technically skip parts of pre 50 too even without KT

[simple lion]

would rather go play RS with no teleports and go do the quests on there

that's where i stand on this games initial storyline lmao

[weary onyx]

https://puu.sh/Jfc2i/9b64c80773.png how do I open all of them at once ?

[maiden locust]

whats better, selling unused gear or dismantling them?

[maiden locust]

you cant

[astral root]

i think the only mandatory stuff is Totoryk & South Vern

cuz totoryk gives you heart's melody

[buoyant herald]

i still havent done anikka on a single char XD

[maiden locust]

you mean the tripod gear?

no just leveling gear and drops

[weary onyx]

okey so is there a way to open them faster ?

[astral root]

oh I must've gotten bad info then, but either way KTs pretty juicy, 800 gold is nothing once you hit 1370

[maiden locust]

autoclicker

[weary onyx]

lmao and I thought this game couldn't make any worst choices

[astral root]

the only weird fucky thing that happens is you need to have completed the most prior cont to KT anything (Ie if you skip rhonen you'll have to do yorn manually, and if you wanted to skip Feiton but KT Punika you can't cuz you have to do Feiton)

[buoyant herald]

XD this change is bizarre in general

[scenic wren]

My main is 1385 and i have 5 alts at 1370.
when should i push for the next checkpoint, is it 1415 ?

[maiden locust]

yes

[buoyant herald]

should push your main to 1475 now push alts with bound stuff if you want but 1370 is ait spot to keep alts

[maiden locust]

get main to 1460 for research then alts to 1415

[scenic wren]

how much more gold do you generate at 1415 and 1460

from weekly raids and stuff only

[buoyant herald]

https://lostark-helper.com/

make 2 chars and check

[scenic wren]

thanks, i have bookmarked this useful site right now

[shut river]

Time to g spam except its the mouse and theres no story

[hybrid inlet]

anyone know or know where to find how much silver you get from 1370 chaos dispatch (rank B or avg number)?

[simple knoll]

can i do more chaos line with different char?

[normal reef]

you can go in more times for achievement progress but rewards are once per day for whole roster

[placid quiver]

question any difference between hard and normal vykas other than 1 extra mechanic?
like gold difference?

[fair mantle]

More mats, more gold, more mechs, can't Timestop some mech

[placid quiver]

aye k thx

[ember jolt]

is the most efficient way to get to 1415 really to get weapon to 11 3 armor pieces to 17 and the rest stays at 8 ?

[normal reef]

yes if no honing research and no event growth boost

[sand chasm]

dont be deceived you cant timestop any mechanics

[normal reef]

but right now there is event growth boost so its probably better to just 15 all across

[sand chasm]

all the mechanics that can be timestopped in normal cannot be timestopped in hardmode, nothing will save you except doing it right

[ember jolt]

the growth boost stopped at 1370 no ?

[sand chasm]

no

go for all +15 that strat was only to get to valtan on release as fast as possible

[normal reef]

also there are cheap honing sub-15 books now

before those books auto dropped from legion raids they were super expensive

[ember jolt]

so just go for the standard all 15 to progress

[sand chasm]

yes

you wont actually gain anything from doing the cheese since you will likely push to 1430 and 1445 quickly

[maiden locust]

when does it stop then?

[slim nacelle]

hey any news on powerpass? they said during last week or before the reset tht coming in 2 days but nothing so far at least in announcement channel

[timber mauve]

For alts I’d suggest the cheese. Technically, if you’re trying to push super hard before something like reset, then the cheese may be better.

[sand chasm]

idk AGS didnt say but they said global 10% honing buff

[sand chasm]

check in the update channels for any updates

[timber mauve]

The global honing buff stops at 1370

[sand chasm]

lol scammed then

[timber mauve]

There is a stronghold research for 1370>1415

[sand chasm]

i havent honed past 1370 anyways

[ember jolt]

this is my main and my plan was to get my main to 1415 and then get my alts to t3 with the extra mats my main makes so i thought the cheese was the best option

[timber mauve]

Cheese is still cheaper than +15

Quite a bit cheaper actually.

[sand chasm]

you will still do all items to +15 though

so whats cheaper about it

you will spend the gold a bit later anyways if its on main

[simple lion]

question regarding alts, if you were to do the story does the catch up mechanic count towards new toons as well?

[sand chasm]

unless you want to park your main at 1415 for months

[scenic geyser]

Hey…just starting in lost ark and did some research but couldn’t find definitive answers on this. What classes don’t rely on a back attack?

[simple lion]

or is it only one time per account

[sand chasm]

Sorc, Gunslinger

[ember jolt]

i wanted to park until my alts are able to help out with weeklys in t3

[scenic geyser]

Ok

[timber mauve]

As I said, it’s cheaper than +15 all for 1415 specifically. And super helpful if they’re trying to push fast to 1415 before reset or something.

[sand chasm]

there are more likely but i dont know them

[simple lion]

i assume you can also put bard/paladin in there as well but idk myself

[sand chasm]

well you got 2 opinions you choose

icy says cheese i say all +15

[sand chasm]

they are no attack classes

[simple lion]

true, so can toss em there too >.>

[ember jolt]

thanks for the input anyway im gonna sleep on it :D

[lusty flume]

if i put it as a target , on average how much time will it take me to collect all mokokos , or 1150 to get the 2 masterpieces , can i do it in 1 day ?

[maiden locust]

there is a speedrun that did all of them in 18hours or so

[lusty flume]

ty i'll search for it

where to get the location of the New Vernese Exploration ship so i can buy the masterpiece ? is there a website ?

[maiden locust]

google it

[lusty flume]

ty ya baden

[marsh cloud]

Once I get my first toon to 1370 should I keep pushing or take some time to level some alts?

[dusky sigil]

id try to push to 1385 to have the stronghold research, then you can decide to push alts

[marsh cloud]

argos p1 it is

[dusky sigil]

stronghold research gives you -20% silver cost and +10% success rate on alts between 1302 and 1370

[marsh cloud]

I did finish the other boosts as well as fusion research I didn't know you'd get t3 stuff so soon-ish

[maiden locust]

how do i get tier 2 leapstones if i cant do gaurdians

[dire bone]

event shop, market, t2 tower

[maiden locust]

event shop gives enough for like 2 hones

[dire bone]

Well it’s still mats

Leapstone una’s

T2 boss rush

[maiden locust]

i cant find people for boss rush either

[dusk veldt]

solo it

[maiden locust]

can you?

[visual raft]

if i do a no book carry i need to be lucky to not find people that take those anyway _

[dusk veldt]

yes

[visual raft]

cause i just got a first int 5k boook stolen

[dusk veldt]

yea that's kinda scummy of them
but yea rip nothing you can do about it

[visual raft]

its more worth selling carry for 200 g or doing free no books

[marsh cloud]

what does that mean, No book

[snow wadi]

Do u just started playing Lost Ark?

Looks like u missed the information that EuW isn't the EU server you wanna favor when starting the game

[maiden locust]

nah im trying to get my tier 2 alts to tier 3 lol but im lacking leaps

[sand chasm]

cant you solo?

[maiden locust]

idk i have never tried that before

[snow wadi]

then you could solo it

boss hp scales down

[sand chasm]

its going to take a while but if you have at least class engraving you should be fine to do it

you can die as many times as you want during i think

[maiden locust]

ok

[dusk veldt]

This guy again 💀

[visual raft]

it means that i give a free carry bu tthey have to leave me the bid

[maiden locust]

isnt it true tho?

[dusk veldt]

theres good and bad sides to playing on a smaller region

[maiden locust]

like?

[dusk veldt]

More sense of community
actually being able to make money of lucky accesory drops

A friend of mine made a better list but i can't find it rn
Either way im not gonna say euw is the best server
Just that people tend to only point out the negative

[maiden locust]

ok

[rough prawn]

have u ever gotten scammed out of that

[buoyant herald]

being able to make money of lucky accesory drops this goes both ways tho XD good accs cost a fortune and you need more than 1 that you are likely never gonna drop anyway

[visual raft]

yes today ive found a first intention book that is 5k and they got it

[rough prawn]

tf

[visual raft]

not even that mad cause the previus raid i got a 3k berserker tec book

[dusk veldt]

how long is the cooldown on these spawns again?

[buoyant herald]

30 min iirc

[maiden locust]

how many mats do the tier 2 islands give?

[full finch]

How "bad "is it to equip a skin that "only" has 0,5% in basic effect instead of the regular 1%? Does it make a big difference in the end?

[devout knot]

Hello, anybody else enncountered this phenomenon?
I have tempest slash focus tripod +3 on my gloves and the actual skill tripod shows lv2 (it upgraded from lv1 few hours ago)

[primal jolt]

Is there an estimate anywhere of how long each continent's storyline takes when leveling alts?

[rough prawn]

2 hours yorn, 1 hr 30 punika

[dusk veldt]

it makes a difference of 0.5%

[silver rain]

alt+e integrated preset check if you're using tripod preset from the skill tree inventory x or from the equipped gear

[maiden locust]

how much slower will i progress if i only play 3 characters instead of 6?

[devout knot]

that was exactly the porblem and now solved, thank you sir

[weary onyx]

I have 10k blue crystal in EUC, If I switch to NA region will I keep / be able to usemy blue crystals in na ? ?

[maiden locust]

no

[spare acorn]

If i let a couple friends carry my alt through Argos when he s 1370ilvl, does he get only first phase rewards? Or all three?

[buoyant herald]

all 3

[opal pebble]

I have a vern powerpass and I want to make an alt character and get him up to 1370, Will I have to use punika knowledge transfer or is the vern powerpass enough If I hone him up to 1370, what does the knowledge transfer do.

[maiden locust]

powerpasses are dissabled at the moment

knowledge transfer just makes is so you dont have to do the msq of a continent

[opal pebble]

Ok last question , sorry If I use the punika knowledge transfer does that do the msq of all continents up to punika or only the msq of punika

[tender badge]

ya they just wrote on the forum that they dont have any news to the pp yet

[tender badge]

no

you have to do the first, level ur item lvl then the next and so on...

[maiden locust]

guys do i need to finish the msq then knowldege transfer how does it work ?

[tender badge]

yeah and u have to research it on ur hometown thing

[snow wadi]

Na you could skip rohendel, do yorn, kt feiton and have rohendel done

[tender badge]

if u have a power pass i wouldn't use knowledge transfer. level one char to punika then u get the next pp

and wait till they are enabled again

[maiden locust]

i already used my power pass

[tender badge]

you get another one in punika

[maiden locust]

wdym another one

[tender badge]

you get 2 pp to vern? one to feiton and one to punika?

not sure how many they are

[buoyant herald]

feiton one was time limited its gone now

[tender badge]

ah then 2 vern and one punika right? and express event 1304 to 1370

[buoyant herald]

yeah

[true vigil]

@ argos, beeing held hostage, what can we do?

how can we kick this person?

its already 20+ mins...

[silver rain]

everyone warns then you can proceed to vote kick

[modest plaza]

cant u all just vote to leave

[silver rain]

but yea just vote leave then find someone else

[true vigil]

we are in front of p3-.- that sucks

[wraith basin]

20+minute hostage is nothing, you're gonna be there for hours

[true vigil]

we cant warn in 8man

[pseudo atlas]

better hope people don't accidentally claim the loot when you leave

[near hound]

ay bruh someone help me out with this character skin preset shit

[fluid lake]

U guys think rerolling from EUW to EUC with 1,3k hours and lvl 155 roster with 6 high t3 chars is worth it tho?

[weary onyx]

my friend wants to switch over from euw to euc (he wants to play a multiplayer game haha...) can he uses the punika powerpass he got from euw to euc ?

[dusk veldt]

[timber mauve]

I know people that have, but up to you if you wanna dedicate that time

[silver rain]

not really there's something about server merge in the road map im pretty sure that aim to EuW so it'd get better

[inner wing]

Good luck if you do the transfer

[weary onyx]

unless you want to play a soloplayer game in a multiplayer based game content then yes I would recommend to switch over

[weary onyx]

server not region 😄

[timber mauve]

Well, server merges won’t do shit for EUW since the entire region is dead.

[fluid lake]

Will EUC get merges?

[timber mauve]

Everywhere will likely get merges as the player base fluctuates.

[dusk veldt]

That's such a shallow take

Do you play on euw?

[timber mauve]

Nah, the dude I know rerolled off EUW tho with a 1480 main and 3 1415 alts.

[dusk veldt]

why did he reroll 🤔

maybe im just lucky with my guild 😄

[fluid lake]

Friend showed me these 2 for EUW and EUC.

[timber mauve]

He used to play on RU and has ptsd from dead RU servers. Think that’s why he rerolled.

[dusk veldt]

Hmm, again maybe i just have a really nice guild but i have never felt the game is dead
Neither on pf or on auction hosue

[fluid lake]

Where is he now on the rerolled one?

[silver rain]

having an active guild helps by a lot yea i've played JP you pretty much cant do adv. island if you enter 1-2 minute late cuz not enuf people to start off the co-op

[crude delta]

is there a way to view mix and matched costume in the store without buying each piece to see how they would look like together?

[timber mauve]

NAW
Another (slightly less) dead region

[weary onyx]

that's 80% of the time true for euc, imagine for euw

[fluid lake]

And account wise?

[timber mauve]

1490 main and 5 1415+ alts.
