[maiden locust]

verify game files

[cerulean pine]

how do i do that?

it startet once btw, but it just close after like 10 seconds

[maiden locust]

right click on lost ark in steam open properties and go to local files

then click the verify game files on the bottom

[cerulean pine]

i did that already

after that i started once but as i said closed after 10 seconds

[balmy helm]

Happened to me the other day updated windows and restarted and it kicked into life

[cerulean pine]

to windows 11?

i dont really want windows 11 :/

[balmy helm]

no just a normal windows update

[cerulean pine]

uhmm, did you update in like the files or from the internet?

[balmy helm]

nah was in the normal windows update from system i had an update pending so i just forced it through and reset and the anti-cheat went through as normal

[placid cliff]

I just unlocked the first guardian raid and it seems using matchmaking takes forever so, are they doable solo with Paladin?

[queen bloom]

anyone know what the color of the chaos gate mean? Guildies pinging red chaos gate. Does it drop better loots or something?

[maiden locust]

you can make a party and sometimes a high ilvl will join and help you

[maiden locust]

soloing with a paladin will be kind of impossible since he is a support

[placid cliff]

So I have to hope for someone to boost me or just not do them?

[harsh dawn]

so wtf can i do here

[maiden locust]

tier 1 and 2 are pretty much dead you should get to tier 3 as fast as you can, im down to help you do your gaurdians

[maiden locust]

change the name?

[harsh dawn]

which character?

thats the issue

[snow wadi]

Do adventure islands scale with highest roster or current char?

[maiden locust]

current

[molten wharf]

best way to 1370-1415 for alts

like cheapest ?

[sterile parcel]

Hey I havent played in a while
picked up the punika powerpass now but cant give it to my new character, it just dowsnt show in the menu

[maiden locust]

check pins

[molten wharf]

thats before honing buff

not sure if full 14 n two 16 or full 12 n two 17

[maiden locust]

honing is till 1370 tho no?

[silver rain]

#info-dump message its one of the strats

[tulip copper]

is that actually 99.99% or is it 100?

[silver rain]

it wont round up

[tulip copper]

so its 99.99? fuck that shit

[silver rain]

so yea 99.99

the saddest part before hitting pity

[maiden locust]

how many stones i need from 1445 to 1460 ?

stones?

leap

atleast 10

ha?

you mean 1000

or something

yes

[sleek ore]

Guys, why i cant use my pass? Im up 50 lvl and use pass, but cant use on another character

[maiden locust]

check pins

[topaz zephyr]

I don’t have any rested bonus and I’m trying for 1302 chaos dungeon armor. I’m currently 1100. Should I full clear the (2) chaos dungeons or try for a lucky portal??

[maiden locust]

just do it

[lusty flume]

how many leapstones on avg i need from 1430 to 1445 ?

[maiden locust]

about 700

[lusty flume]

ty

[topaz zephyr]

@maiden locust i got the whole set in first run. You were right lol "just do it"

[maiden locust]

ofcourse

[topaz zephyr]

on of my characters took 3 days 😦

[maiden locust]

damn

[peak wadi]

So since powerpass is going to be disablled for another week or maybe longer, I wanna just knowledge transfer my chars. Unfortunately I already used 9/9 spots for north vern. Anyone know how long it takes to finish north vern as a fresh lvl 10 char?

[maiden locust]

8 hours or so

[peak wadi]

depression

[snow wadi]

You have 12+ chars already?

[peak wadi]

damn north vern takes taht long? been a loong time since i did the story

[peak wadi]

yep

[spiral thistle]

It takes longer even. I'd wager most not comfortable leveling with some minor optimization and not knowing 100% what every quest is all the time is more 9-9½hr. If you are gonna go through you can skip Tortoyk and Anihic and go straight to Arthentine after Luterra. At the very least skip Anihic at least

[snow wadi]

half way through levelling you can make use of spirit absorption, which helps alot

[maiden locust]

can you skip rohendal by just buying tier 2 gear of the marketplace or do you have to do the msq?

[spiral thistle]

You can but you can't use KT for Yorn then

Every continent is skippable except Luterra

And Vern

Yorn has gems locked behind it though. If you don't do Yorn you can't use gems

[snow wadi]

Could you skip Yorn, do Feiton, KT Punika for Gems?

[spiral thistle]

No

If you don't do Yorn you can never equip gems

[snow wadi]

But doesn't kt punika also kt yorn in the progress?

[spiral thistle]

No

[peak wadi]

I just need to have north vern completed so I can use knowledge transfer for rohendal after 😦 sad

[spiral thistle]

Kt is only you finish main story for selected continent and if you skip anything you can't use KT

[maiden locust]

thats against TOS

[peak wadi]

not doing it for the gold, i wanna make a GL

to be part of my main alts

[spiral thistle]

Yeah this. Please don't recommend it openly on this discord.

[peak wadi]

zzz ok nvm idk 8hrs or even longer just for north vern versus one click on PP lol

[snow wadi]

Why exactly? nvm

[spiral thistle]

Because it's against the ToS

[rose jewel]

against tos as someone already said

[spiral thistle]

While this is an unoffical discord we still don't encourage anything against ToS

[snow wadi]

Weird tho
Having a rule to against additional gold gains for those insane enough to play that much

[spiral thistle]

They implemented a 6 character limit for a reason

[snow wadi]

Which is inflation, right?

[spiral thistle]

Yes

[dusk veldt]

the 6 char limit is a measure against inflation right?

[maiden locust]

yes

[spiral thistle]

Since before that limit people had 20+ characters doing Argos every week

[dusk veldt]

also helps casual players

[spiral thistle]

In KR that is

[fluid lake]

You guys know how i can make some fast gold with a fresh t3 char?
Rerolled from EUW to EUC

[snow wadi]

ah this tbh
Prohibiting insane players to simply outgrind casuals

[fluid lake]

Argos and HM aint enough tho. 3k max

[spiral thistle]

1-time rewards like rapport is probably easiest. Using Life Points to sell the most valuable mats

[spiral thistle]

It's not about ougrinding casuals. It's about the game not being accessible to new players because they don't have the gold. It's a big issue in KR because their blue crystals cost 3k

Getting Pheons to gear your main let alone alts suddenly becomes insanely expensive

And the more gold the ones that can play a shit ton have the further prices are pressed on the market pricing out new players and casuals so they can't afford anything

[snow wadi]

Got it!
Well, lets get back to that KT Transfer thing
I'm pretty sure KTing a later region finishes the regions before, you sure that doesn't work?

[spiral thistle]

Yes. You can't KT a later region because you do not meet the requirements that is to have cleared the previous continents main story. I know this from experience because I bought T3 on AH on a fresh Lv50 character that had never left Vern Castle and was i1100

[snow wadi]

So you don't necessarily need to play through Yorn and still gain access to gems?

[spiral thistle]

When he was i600 I could not KT Yorn because I had never done Rohendel. I could not KT Feiton because I had not done Yorn when he was i960 and same for Papunika when he was i1100.

[half carbon]

hi guys is this purple weapon better than the blue one? or is it the same

[spiral thistle]

You do. I was forced to go back and do Yorn when he was i1302 because he could not equip gems

The gem function is locked behind the last quest of MSQ in Yorn

[peak wadi]

If I want to maximize my station mission rewards, are there specific crew members I should aim to get? Or just get any

[snow wadi]

Lemme clarify my question with an example
Skip Yorn -> doing Feiton Questline should allow you to KT Punika -> KT Punika and get Yorn done

[spiral thistle]

No. You can't KT because one of the requirements is to have cleared the previous continents main story. Otherwise you can't use KT.

[snow wadi]

Purple are usually better, but I wouldn't bother much with different armor in t1/t2

[dry snow]

do KT transfer triports too or no?

[rose jewel]

purple things are better than blue by default (even more so if they are at the same or higher quality) you just need to "Hone Transfer", which only costs silver, to transfer your blue honing to the purple (the +9)

[snow wadi]

Am pretty sure I used KT for Feiton even tho I skipped rohendel but did yorn

[spiral thistle]

It does

[half carbon]

ty

[spiral thistle]

Ah well that should work. As the requirement is the previous continent and not continents as I've been saying wrongfully in that case. So your example should work. I was already i1100 when I looked at KT and skipped everything so I wasn't gonna go back and do a continent just do KT one I was eligible to do manually.

But Yorn is unskippable if you want to be able to equip gems that much I unfortunately know for sure.

[snow wadi]

To be fair - my example is pretty much made up and has no real benefits as I wouldn't prefer questing Feiton over Yorn anyway

[spiral thistle]

I'd prefer to pay for a Power Pass but doesn't seem to be happening any time soon.

[peak wadi]

[spiral thistle]

Just them all to always get max % anyway

They are a good investment

Pretty sure the attributes of the missions are randomized

[maiden locust]

punika kt doesnt complete feiton right?

[spiral thistle]

No, each KT only completes the 1 region

[maiden locust]

ok

anyone know kitingishard on twitch? i just found his stream and he apparantly has 1 1490 and 3 1480, i dont want to assume anything but it kinda smells like RMT

[spiral thistle]

Does not have to be at all. He can just have bussed a ton and bought those ilvls on AH

[rose jewel]

or, hear me out... perhaps.... he's a legit whale!!! amazing isnt it

[spiral thistle]

Also this channel is not for speculating whether or not someone is RMTing

[fluid lake]

Rmt would be having a 1575 main and 2 alts over 1500 💀

Or a stupid giga whale

[spiral thistle]

Veterans who bussed from the start have easily made millions in gold at this point since Argos came out

[fluid lake]

Millions for sure not. Game released 6 months ago, argos 5 months ago. Even if u bussed from day 1 for a overprized 5k bus, 6 players that would be 600k in 5 months

Most of it came from founderpack sellings and early whaling and marketflips wirh GHL (2k each in the early early stage)

2-3 major mechs u need to know. Watch a quick guide once
Edit: if u wanna have fun and a challenge, go blind

[tardy gale]

can anyone help me do the guardian raid challenge?

[limpid obsidian]

Not the wipes D:

[pliant locust]

sry for a very stupid question, but how do i use the vern powerpass, i got it in the mail, claimed it, used it in the inventory, but i cant use it on my alt. the only thing that appears on the powerpass menu is no images. can anybody help me or tell me if there is still something i need to do.

[limpid obsidian]

Disabled ATM, check #announcements

[rose jewel]

[tardy gale]

the system is currently deactivated

[paper glacier]

for adding a new engraving like grudge, is it fair to just add 20% of that to current damage?

[pliant locust]

oh, well thanks for telling me 😅 cause i was really worried

[limpid obsidian]

Yes? Why wouldn't it be?
You asking about additive stacking?

[rose jewel]

i kind of dont get the question myself

20% of what, the total needed for lv3? another 20% dmg engrave?

or you're just saying "20% is op"

[paper glacier]

I mean how to apply it to current dmg

is it just 20% of current dmg numbers? say 10m

[rose jewel]

grudge is multiplicative

let me throw you a video explaining, a sec

[paper glacier]

bet

[rose jewel]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-hG0wVlNyU

[limpid obsidian]

As I thought, you're asking about additive vs multiplicative.
Generally all things are multiplicative except for +ATK PWR engravings.

Oh and Crit Dmg ofc, but there's only 1 engraving with it. You need it in tripods for another source.

[true seal]

after getting main level 7 gems, do i work on alts now or continue with main? alts already have level 5 ones

[silk shard]

Whatever you like really

[paper glacier]

yea I mean if I wanted to make it simple, would u say if I added grudge on top of my engravings, would u just add 20% to current dmg numbers? like 10m would be 12m?

[maiden locust]

get lvl 10 on main

[rose jewel]

watch the vid

[paper glacier]

I did

[rose jewel]

it has math in there

[silk shard]

Its basically dmg x 1.2

[paper glacier]

so considering a dps test would it also be x 1.2 to that dmg

[silk shard]

Well in trixion you can add grudge to test

[paper glacier]

so no?

[maiden locust]

go test it

[pliant locust]

well since powerpass is disabled, is there any other way to level up to 50 or reach endgame without needing to grind days worth of time playing the main quest or am i stuck waiting for them to enable powerpass/level up normally

[silk shard]

Knowledge transfer

[pliant locust]

ok thanks ill try that

[marsh plank]

Which hazard water guild quest is your favorite/the best?

[limpid obsidian]

Siren, cuz just outside of Punika

[whole totem]

Yo, someone took the leg engraving in the express pass ?
Is is exchangeable ?

[deep sorrel]

it is not tradable

[steady magnet]

If you have extra gold, could you buy a set of t3 gear from the AH for an alt and then use knowledge transfer to skip to Punika?

[rose jewel]

eh, no

there is no buyable t3 gear

[steady magnet]

Ah you’re right, sorry I’m still relatively new. I have a character at 1370 and was looking to make an alt as I’ve done pretty much all of my weekly content. What would be the fastest way to level an alt to t3 then assuming it’s starting after a KT to north Vern/302?

Using the max roll island guide and buying mats needed off the AH to hone?

[boreal cosmos]

I am lacking 3 of the same legendary rapport gifts (I have 10 legendary selection chests and only 2 of the same gifts) to gift nia 15 legendary ones in a row to cheese the required virtues block.
Is there a way to gift different gifts at the same time? What can I do to get 3 more or bypass the virtues block?

[rose jewel]

for now... yeah, KT one char to north vern for lv50, then hone your way through, that is until powerpasses are enabled again

[rose jewel]

1-no
2-wandering merchants

[deep sorrel]

if you have providence stones you can gamble for a rapport from a specific continent

i guess since you have 2 of the yudia one you can open yudia boxes

[silk shard]

Lostmerchants.com

[boreal cosmos]

I have 100k stones but the punika merchant sells only purple gifts

[silk shard]

Also has festival of fire and ice which is legendary

[boreal cosmos]

oh you mean gamble the seletion
is there another use to those stones besides rapport gifts?

[silk shard]

Skins

[deep sorrel]

the skins (from that same merchant)

[maiden locust]

wow is this the thing that makes an alt lvl 50 instantly

[boreal cosmos]

Got 3 so far, wasted 30k lol

[rose jewel]

yeah but..... they dont work rn

[maiden locust]

oh

[boreal cosmos]

Gamble worked. Thanks!

[sleek vale]

Hey guys, would rly appreciate some input on alt selection. Currently have gs main with DI SH and mayhem zerker. I plan to make a 3rd alt that will likely be either GL or pally once powerpasses are enabled again. I haven’t used the free punika one. I have +12 grudge and was wondering if it would be wiser to go GL so I can utilize that engraving or to make pally since I’ve been told I will need to make a support eventually

Open to using other classes as alts too

[silk shard]

Dont have to make a support

[rose jewel]

i would do a support

however you could just hate it, idk what you like

[wet gyro]

What harvest materials did you guys choose in the stronghold farm? need some input, been doing Excavating to craft basic oreha but hearing pots are worth

[rose jewel]

but having a support is never bad

[boreal cosmos]

You don't have to play a support if you don't want to.
It might be easier getting into PUG raids, but if you feel like playing the GL, don't hold yourself because of "the need to have a support".
Play what you want to play lol

You could always make a pally on the next pass event

[silk shard]

Pots are only worth when handfarmed

[wet gyro]

very true

[sleek vale]

What is your reason for doing sup?

[silk shard]

Stronghold farm is just for fusion stuff

[rose jewel]

ez money from argos as an alt, and i like saving people's asses

been a support main or tank main on most games i've played my whole life

[sleek vale]

I see, that makes sense

And you’re referring to bussing argos as sup?

[boreal cosmos]

So basically for the nia rapport cheese I need to be friendly level 1, get her to 3000-3299 rapport points and then just bomb her with 15 legendary gifts?

[rose jewel]

no, not bussing, you can get into p3 argos as a support underleveled

[sleek vale]

Or you mean just clear argos easy cuz everyone will take you. Gotcha

[rose jewel]

you need 3x3, small investment, but you dont have to hone to 1400 to get into p3

[silk shard]

Id recommend watching the video that explains it

[deep sorrel]

that is correct

[sleek vale]

Is this a general rule? I haven’t seen this but is it common?

Argos p3 runs taking in 1370 sups I mean

[rose jewel]

its not a general rule, but if you're half decent at supporting, you just need to keep yourself alive so you can buff allies so they do more dmg

[silk shard]

They usually take in 1385

[rose jewel]

you dont take under ilv dps because they dont do dmg, and dps not doing dmg is bad, but supports just buff and heal ocasionally, they need not do dps

[boreal cosmos]

finally. now 4 more to go :(((

[sleek vale]

Ok that is good to know. Thanks guys

[silk shard]

Good luck

[rose jewel]

nowadays they take mostly 1385 into p3 and 1370 into p2, but if you're good enuf on roster lv and good sub stats and engravings, they could take you, or you make a party to p3

[elder anchor]

do all life skills give plat field tickets, or just herbs?

[rose jewel]

all, random

[steady magnet]

GL is a “half support”. They make the raids lives easier through taunt, tanking mechanics and living, providing good dmg with constant uptime and decent stagger. They also have good shields for the group. GL’s are also pretty in demand as far as pugs go. A pally would be cheaper to gear for an alt and it would be easier to get into groups though. It just depends on what you want

[rose jewel]

GL is ... his own thing tbh

[silk shard]

All can give them

[rose jewel]

tldr
Is Gunlancer a support, a tank or a dps?
Yes

[silk shard]

Can gunlancer do alot of dps while also facetanking bosses

Yes

[astral flame]

What is the most populated server for EU? I'm new to the game but the server I'm on seems empty, only 1 or 2 people around

[elder anchor]

anyone know the best plat fields solo route?

[blazing badger]

Are you on EUW? It is far less populated than EUC and I strongly suggest rerolling on EUC

[astral flame]

EUW yeah, I'll try EUC ty

[mellow wigeon]

best time to start upgrade is start of the week or end of the week?

[blazing badger]

yeah you basically can't go wrong on EUC. I'm on Zinnervale and it's super active - I think Kadan is the most active just based on the "busy status", but I know people who play on basically all of the servers and have a good time

[blazing badger]

what do you mean by "start upgrade", sorry?

[mellow wigeon]

start of the week

like if i want to + my items, cause i fail over 500 already i feel miserable is there a best time to upgrade

[silk shard]

Whenever you want to hone

[rose jewel]

there is no such thing as "monday is cheaper cost" or "saturday you have increased chances"

[blazing badger]

yeah, just pray to your chosen deity, bend over, and let the honing fun commence. gl!

all you can do really

[safe sonnet]

how my is sorc igniter legandary engraving recipe worth how much can i sell for?

[fervent whale]

market prices is your best bet

[blazing badger]

ctrl+right click -> search market

[safe sonnet]

lowest price says 7400

so i can sell it for 7300? 7200?

i just get it in abyss dungen

[fervent whale]

you can click the buy button on the recipe in market to see the lowest prices and how many recipes for each price

[blazing badger]

yeah, you can try pricing a lil higher if you want

[safe sonnet]

😄

[blazing badger]

typically supply is on the low side so as long as you're not selling really high, it should still sell

[safe sonnet]

so i can sell it for 7400 or more?

[fervent whale]

you can sell at any price, just depends if people will buy it. If 7400 is the lowest, good shot it'll be bought at that price

anyone else having steam connection issues?

[blazing badger]

you could probably sell for any of those prices or more and it'd still sell tbh, 11 on sale isn't much. if you want it to be fast and still make a bit more I'd go for 7475 or something

I did a few mins ago, fine now though

[fervent whale]

ah, might not just be me

[blazing badger]

yeah mine went down for 10 mins ago and stopped me logging back into LA for a bit, fine now though

[safe sonnet]

or i can try with more 8000?

i dont know what the price is before

[blazing badger]

you can try, you won't lose anything

you get your deposit back as long as you don't cancel prematurely

8k isn't outlandishly high for that, it might sell

[safe sonnet]

yeah maybe but its the first time i get a book thats why i ask what is the price before for the book

[normal reef]

are there any other 420 virtue rapport checks besides nia and shana

[silk shard]

Not as of now

[safe sonnet]

this is the price for the book i search 30 days average it was 8388

so maybe i can sell it for 8000

24 hours it was 8133

oh i see because i am playing on Procyon i cant get that i think

this was the price for eu central

[pseudo atlas]

steam weekly maintenance is always around this time every week

[safe sonnet]

maybe now i cant sell for that maybe i but 7100

price changes again and again now its 7450

[limpid obsidian]

If unsure just put at lowest price

[safe sonnet]

lowest price now 7450 and change again and again

[blazing badger]

it's highish demand and lowish supply. I think you'd be fine going for 7400+

[safe sonnet]

okay i will.. thanks

hope it will sell

[fiery zinc]

any tips on how to add 50 players for amethyst shard reward?

[opaque ore]

What should I do first on my last 2 alts: Get to 1400 to 1415 or 1385 to 1400 first?

[silk shard]

1415

[lone wadi]

if you want gold, do 1385 -> 1400

more valtans? go 1415

you make more raw gold by getting p3

[silk shard]

Do Orehas well hm before honing to 1415 though

[maiden locust]

Punika msq is only like 2 hours right?

[wraith basin]

1370 is the same as 1414

[silk shard]

Something like that

[rigid fossil]

is there some sort of inven page or smth where i can look at korean stronghold builds

[half thunder]

What is the most possible engravings you can get with current game? Will one of the future raids make it more?

[mellow mauve]

current with relics is 5x3+1 when we get ancients 5x3+2

[half thunder]

Which raid brings ancient accessories?

[mellow mauve]

brel

[maiden locust]

shall i farm these out while i'm here?

[peak wadi]

Is Combat XP Points worth buying for pirate coins

[rain meadow]

Imo no

[hexed canopy]

when is the maharaka event over? can't find the date on the news 😦

[silk shard]

28th of september

[hexed canopy]

oh so the time on the books from the event npc is when the event is over, thanks

[limpid obsidian]

Nothing there is worth the time it takes to grind them

[half thunder]

For Igniter sorc, should last engraving be cursed doll or precise dagger?

[maiden locust]

what about daily island rewards

oh shit i just got the astella island soul as i picked stars

[limpid obsidian]

That's the only important reward there

[rain meadow]

Depends on if you want to lower your damage in exchange for a little more consistency or if you want to just increase your damage

[fossil linden]

Quick question, if I play on 2 accounts and send gold to another frequently is there any chance oof getting banned?

[limpid obsidian]

@maiden locust how many Colorful fragments?

[maiden locust]

let me check

i intend on clearing the quest chain here, just to check

122 as of now

[silk shard]

Cursed doll but if you go spec swift then precise dagger

[limpid obsidian]

Buy the Crew for 500 if you get enough. The engravings aren't worthless, but they also aren't unique to the island. Grab them if you need them and don't get 500 by the end of the quest.

[maiden locust]

ok i'll go for the 500 then, thank you

[deep sorrel]

i would just not bother unless you're some kind of super completionist

[limpid obsidian]

Don't stick around grinding for it tho. The crew is kinda bad, so you won't really use it. It's just if you wanna collect it for completion as it's only available from this island.

[maiden locust]

oh lame, guess i'll skip it then\

[deep sorrel]

not even part of an achievement

[median steeple]

How can I get this plz?

[rain meadow]

buy from the market, or buy from the cash shop

[maiden locust]

upgrading ship in stronghold increases its stats at sea too?

(if i manually sail it)

[limpid obsidian]

Can't upgrade ship in SH

[maiden locust]

hmm i c

[limpid obsidian]

Can only unlock new ships for dispatch through research

[maiden locust]

I saw a video on youtube telling me to upgrade the basic ship to 4 instead of getting other ships, besides one for a reward

due to low maintenance

[normal reef]

yeah you only really need to lvl estoque in the beginning

it's the most well rounded ship anyways

only reason to level others is flex or if you want the virtues

from reaching lv10 with certain ships

[median steeple]

tyvm

[limpid obsidian]

Heck, upgrade Estoque to lvl10 when you get enough sailing coins. Estoque is the second-best ship in the game and a lot cheaper to upgrade than the best one (Astray).

[wraith basin]

do you have a guide on upgrading estoque from 7 to 10? I can't find these items

[limpid obsidian]

Check http://lostarkcodex.com when in doubt.

But guessing it's the non-tea ships outside of Yorn, Feiton and Punika.

[maiden locust]

@limpid obsidian you think I should farm 5 island souls for the stat increase potion? i only need 3 more

[limpid obsidian]

Stat increase pots are incredibly small relative to your total stats

[deep sorrel]

you should get at least 20 for the skill point potion

[limpid obsidian]

Yeah, skill point pot is the main important one

[maiden locust]

ahhhh skill point potion was the one, thanks

[fiery zinc]

Is paladin even any good? I feel like you should just go bard if you are going to support right?

[fierce hill]

paladin is better for dmg buff

[wispy horizon]

what does floater mean in vykas

[subtle helm]

Someone told me for gate 1 valtan you can use a blessed panacea to eat all orbs in alternating colours as an alternative to wei cheese, can someone confirm and or have a video showing how it’s done?

[fossil linden]

Watch any of atk's video probably

The solo valtan bus ones

[subtle helm]

ah good idea thanks

[limpid obsidian]

Flex, I'd assume, if G2. Basically means that the person will move between the orbs spots.
It's generally a bad idea to have flex/floaters standing in the middle. Always have them at the two left-most orb locations and have them move to the right if there's just 2 black orbs in their spot.

[wispy horizon]

So I look at the "dishes" you can eat, and it says you can only 1 can be used at a time. How long does a dish's buffs last?

all ability stones are sellable (except for the ones you buy off AH and the express event ones)

(and the ones you facet)

[fiery zinc]

where do you get the Basic Sporty Shorts?

[deep sorrel]

only from the market now

it used to be sold in the crystal store

[fair cloak]

are you able to equip something to go below 1415 and do the weekly hard dungeons?

[deep sorrel]

well you can't cheat the reward lockout

it uses your "earned" level as a basis so you still won't get gold from lower level abyssals

[fair cloak]

ahh fairs tyvm

[true chasm]

what happened to ester weapons in kr?

[rose jewel]

absotulely nothing?

[deep sorrel]

basically you can enhance them for more weapon power

[fiery zinc]

for my potion chests, should i grab Blue pots or Purple?

[wild jackal]

The most gold value is the 10 blue pots

Unless you crafted the potion chest yourself which most value would be the 3 purples over 6 blues

[tawdry canopy]

How many days of inactivity does it take for it to auto kick a guild lead? and does it transfer to the next highest in command?

[twin vapor]

why dont we counter vykas at 120?

[pine oasis]

hmm seems like i was lucky getting it on 2nd try

also, is it worth using 8k sun coins on copium star?

[mellow mauve]

yea

it can delay her throne mechanic long enough for everyone to wipe

[pine oasis]

is there anyway to track spearfish hunting guild vessel?

[deep sorrel]

if the current ship is plumpcrab just look at the time left on it

and then add like 1~2 minutes for them to change out

[pine oasis]

plumpcrab?

[deep sorrel]

if there's no second ship just wait for one to spawn

[pine oasis]

ohh! it is plumpcrab

do i dock to refresh it or it will appear by itself?

[deep sorrel]

it rotates on its own, look at the time left

[pine oasis]

i see

ahh thank you sir for the info

i meant legendary to lower relic 😄

[nimble gorge]

is weekly reset tonight?

[mellow mauve]

yes

[sleek vale]

this seems like the cheapest option for royal crystals to crystals. can someone clarify it you have to create a new char and have it reach lv10 to receive it?

or can I just buy it on any of my lv 50+ chars and still get the crystals

[deep sorrel]

you can buy it on any character lv50+ and still get rewards

what ilvl do i stop getting gold from gate of paradise?

[buoyant herald]

1370 iirc

[inner wing]

Should be shown when placing the cursor on the (?) in the abyss dungeons menu

[narrow axle]

Just curious about something, every time I see a clip on reddit it seems like 90% of the time the player has one of those special quests not done. Is this normal or just some super secret quest i'm missing out on. Most of the time they are doing endgame content, so I would have assumed they have the main quests done.

[gloomy gust]

This when someone has a guide quest accepted but not completed like the honing/faceting stones tutorial lol

[frail magnet]

Anyone know when I get more una coins than this pls?

[narrow axle]

no further way

[narrow axle]

damn I would have gone crazy if I didn't finish those quests with a silly marker there all day

[frail magnet]

Oh is that the max? dang:D

[frail magnet]

sweet thank you! ❤️

[narrow axle]

yeah you get more with more ilvl, but una completion is the only way to get una tokens

[gloomy gust]

Yeah I have them cause I cba doing the sailing guides on every alt 😂

[maiden locust]

how long till reset

like 40 minutes or something

[dim garden]

1304 is way more than 705

[flat dagger]

Guide quests are once per roster.

[pine oasis]

i need help setting up my alts for gold activities. should i be getting all of them to ilvl 1300+ or should i keep them according to abyssal dungeon levels?

[flat dagger]

Lowest cost investment to certain levels for dungeons and raids, do the math and see if it's worth it to you.

[pine oasis]

what would you recommend? Asking since i have little to no experience in this

[timber mauve]

I’d suggesting getting all alts to at the very least 1340 for both abyssals.

[flat dagger]

1340/1370-1400/1415/1430/1445/1460.

[pine oasis]

1340 is t3 blue +15?

[flat dagger]

No? Not even close to that.

It's very early T3, don't remember the exact hone level.

[radiant flame]

it's +9

[flat dagger]

1370 is all +15s.

[pine oasis]

oh

[past oriole]

Thanks, I would have pushed main to 1490 a while ago had I known this.

[timber mauve]

The 1490 una token increase isn’t in our version yet.
Unless I can’t read since I don’t think I get 4 boxes each week.

[tulip copper]

Pushing all alts from 1370 to 1415 seems such a big move. When would that even be appropriate to do. It would take months to earn back what you invested in

[timber mauve]

Yes and no. You could get lucky with a relic acc, but really most people wanna raid more and get outta yoho jail.

[radiant flame]

when you want to do more content? some people push when you get enough bound leaps. alts are an investment at the end of the day so the earlier you push the greater the end reward

[timber mauve]

Also, pushing your main past 1490 is kind of a bad idea unless you’re

So many also have a surplus of mats and gold.

[radiant flame]

there's no magic point at which you "should" push. but right now with a lull in progression content, a lot of people are pushing alts to have a strong a roster as possible

[radiant flame]

that's not really true. 1510 is meant to be the sweet spot for brelshaza

[timber mauve]

That is if you wanna sweat and rush the set. It’s not efficient in material cost at all.

[radiant flame]

I don't think it's that inefficient, as brelshaza mats will be bonkers expensive when it is released 4/5m down the line

[tulip copper]

What do you guys think it would cost to hone a single alt from 1370 to 1415? Im on phone cant check maxroll rn

[radiant flame]

there's a reddit infographic

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

[uncut wagon]

this comment werent that bad if it was made 3 months in the future

[radiant flame]

? I don't follow. I'm not saying you have to push now. I specifically said the content it was useful for. It was in response to a comment that pushing past 1490 is only for whales

[tulip copper]

So you are telling me that this x5 is an investment?

[radiant flame]

yes, absolutely why would it not be?

[uncut wagon]

this conversation is taking place in the present and as far as i know everyone was talking about right now ?

[tulip copper]

I mean sure if you gonna play the game for the rest of your life

[radiant flame]

I mean, it's not that expensive at all

[tulip copper]

Of course! Its just nothing like 2-3 chaos runs maybe? Thats ez

[warm spoke]

most people make 30k-60k flat gold a month

[radiant flame]

No-one is saying to push everything in one go. But you make 13K raw gold+ with a 1460 character right now per week?

[warm spoke]

just do leapstone unas and hone them when they have excess shards, bound leaps, and you're done with main for now

[pine oasis]

wtf?! how?

[tulip copper]

If you are talking about investments you dont calculate another income. You should focus on what would that character bring you back. You earn only the honing gold cost and fusion in like 15weeks from that invested alt. With leaps and mats you start profit after many many months

[radiant flame]

HM Vykas, Valtan, Argos is a lot of gold

[rain meadow]

1460 can make 11700 if you don't buy any chests and assume 0 good drops

[pine oasis]

hm?

[rain meadow]

1445 makes 10500 assuming the same as above

[uncut wagon]

people, just one thing, the alt is supposed to be profitable forever, the more you invest in it the more it gives back, and it also doesnt expire, so it does take time to give back but it always will give back multiple times what you put it, in the long run

[pine oasis]

HM is?

[radiant flame]

I don't know what your point is. If you don't push at all your alts will just sit at 1370 and you will just be stuck when Brelshaza is released

[rain meadow]

hard mode

[pine oasis]

isnt brelshaza around 1600 or something?

or it was some new content when i was watching korean patch notes stream

[rain meadow]

1520 for gate 5-6 normal mode

[radiant flame]

1490 for g1/g2 I think, but comes with upper relic, and new mats for honing

[warm spoke]

a lot of us are planning to play for months yes. the closer you get to current content the more high level drops you get too, the more stones you get from chaos and leaps you get from guardians (literally double at 1415 compared to 1370), which racks up over time, and the closer you get to hitting the brelshaza gold rush threshold.

[rain meadow]

1600 is akkan hard mode

[warm spoke]

even if, as a planned long-time player, you were to only break even by investing in alts, which you don't, it's a lot more fun to play them at high item level and finally get out of yoho jail

but if you're not interested in that, the most efficient way to save gold is to not play at all so maybe give that a shot

[radiant flame]

also, ultimately gold is just another resource in this game. ultimately there is nothing special about gold when compared to other tradable materials given they are all, to some degree, interchangeable. if you are "saving" gold, you should at least have an idea about what you want to spend that gold on

[rain meadow]

on average, if you were to get an alt from 1370 to 1415, it'd take 10 weeks of gold from argos p3, and i'm going to assume you get enough of the other mats from doing chaos dungeons daily

[radiant flame]

you could funnel the gold all into a single character and hone that forever, but you'll see that at some point it becomes a huge gold sink. so why not use some of that gold on alts which will both increase your efficiency over time as well as providing you with more enjoyable gameplay?

[warm spoke]

there are a lot of gold sources weekly gold calculators can't include as well

[rain meadow]

like random gold/red portals in chaos dungeons on alts

[warm spoke]

selling drops, life skills, etc etc

[stone fjord]

Which defensive engraving would you say is the best out of: Heavy Armor | Crisis Evasion | Divine Protection? At Tier 1 that is.

[warm spoke]

divine protection is only really used in pvp. heavy armor is good at level 3, crisis evasion can be good to just tack on at level 1.

[stone fjord]

how realistic is it to get 5x tier 3 engravings currently? I'd go heavy armor for the potential at max but im not sure if I can make it lol

[warm spoke]

in tier 1 it's not possible to go 5x3, most you can do is 4x3

if you're a dps class I wouldn't recommend prioritizing heavy armour though. that's an engraving you'd wanna have for a long time to get value from it and it makes you lose a lot of dps. if anything, just throw on crisis evasion to avoid a couple of throwaway deaths as you make it to tier 3

[stone fjord]

lastly what are you thinking of Ether predator vs Cursed doll?

I'm guessing predator would be technically better for longer fights

[flat dagger]

T1 or level 1?...

[buoyant herald]

ether predator takes 3 min to stack up
would have to be like a 20 min fight to make up for for the stacking

[warm spoke]

yeah cursed doll is the norm, ether is only used as a last lv 1 engraving if your class doesn't use adrenaline

[stone fjord]

Tier 1 of the engraving I meant

[flat dagger]

Heavy Armor if you don't actually die currently, Crisis Evasion if you do.

[buoyant herald]

if you do just git gut

[flat dagger]

That wasn't part of the question.

Ideally you don't run any of the above unless you're a support.

[stone fjord]

I guess dying less isn't part of the builds these days huh

[warm spoke]

oh if you just meant a level 1 engraving i feel like crisis evasion is way more value

[flat dagger]

Not even close.

[stone fjord]

just slap on grudge and hope for the best

[flat dagger]

You won't be accepted into HM Legion raids with defence engravings as DPS.

1 support per party should be all you need.

[stone fjord]

im only looking for a 5th to be defensive not all of them, but if the community is like that then I guess I'll leave the game by then ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[flat dagger]

Why? Unable to not get killed without having one?

[warm spoke]

every bit of dps is important, and not getting hit while maintaining rotations is the main skill expression in this game, so i think it's kinda fair to not go defensive

[stone fjord]

not sure haven't tried yet, im somewhat of a beginner, it just seems like a good idea to have something defensive in there

[flat dagger]

A beginner with 5x3?

[stone fjord]

im just planning for the future >.<

[warm spoke]

it doesn't help that the defensive engravings are kinda trash

[flat dagger]

Don't bother with that for now 😂

[stone fjord]

i find the engravings fun and like to theorycraft 😄

[warm spoke]

dw in the future you won't need one hopefully

[flat dagger]

What's your item level?

[stone fjord]

aight imma head out ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°)

[flat dagger]

I'm serious though, what is it?

[stone fjord]

why do you care so much : D I'm not even lvl 50 yet lol, just trying to have fun reading through the different builds :^)

also playing with them in trixion lol

[flat dagger]

I see, probably why you're even considering it. Once you're at the point of even being able to go 5x3, you likely won't need it or you won't be able to clear HM Legion Raids at all in the first place.

The one exception is HM G1 Valtan and Vykas, you can get hit quite hard in those specifically.

[stone fjord]

It just seems cool to be more tanky, guess I'll have to see later tho

[warm spoke]

in terms of chip damage argos p3 is by faaaaar the worst for me that shit sucks

[uncut wagon]

the truth is that it wont affect that much your dmg, but your real problem is the perception that other people have of you when they look into your profile

[warm spoke]

this isn't really a holy trinity game, the closest thing we have to a tank is a gunlancer. though they are honestly stupid tanky.

[flat dagger]

It can make a noticable difference if the replaced engraving is something like Grudge, Hit Master, Cursed Doll and a few others that are niche engravings.

[warm spoke]

by holy trinity i mean supp heal tank > tank takes dmg > dps do dmg

[flat dagger]

It's also when you stack multiple damage output engravings that they increase off each other too.

[remote spindle]

Whats the relic gear set used for chaos dungeons?

[warm spoke]

but yeah gunlancers can ignore attacks so much it honestly makes me mad sometimes LOL

[stone fjord]

Its kinda sad that people are afraid of experimenting with off meta stuff even though it might be similar in power, feels boring

[flat dagger]

Heavy Armor VS Cursed Doll isn't a comparison to even make.

[stone fjord]

im talking about stuff like ether hunter vx cursed doll

ether predator i think its called*

[buoyant herald]

there is nothing to compare tho its just straight up worse

[warm spoke]

i mean it's a legitimate strategy in hell mode to take ether predator instead of cursed doll

[flat dagger]

Ether Predator yes, but you have to go out of your way to pick up orbs which take a long time to stack up VS always +16% attack power the entire fight.

[stone fjord]

also -25% healing tho 🤔

[flat dagger]

Yes, but git gud.

[buoyant herald]

its irrelevant just dont get hit

[stone fjord]

arguments be like :p

[warm spoke]

the healing impact isn't that bad tbh

[flat dagger]

If you're unable to run Cursed Doll due to skill, then run Ether Predator, that's the extent of the discussion.

[buoyant herald]

everyone runs cursed doll + grudge and dont die

[stone fjord]

when you want to try something new, and get called unskilled for it

[flat dagger]

You're not even Lv. 50.

[warm spoke]

the point about cursed doll and grudge is that they won't often kill you

[stone fjord]

why so toxic

[flat dagger]

I am not being toxic, you just don't have game experience to understand why people do what they do.

[warm spoke]

they just make you use more pots. everyone still gets hit using them, you only have to be good enough to not be short on pots.

[flat dagger]

You'll see once you get to raids, Cursed Doll is fine to use and more convenient than Ether Predator.

[buoyant herald]

the only time you are even going to stack it to full is legion raids XD

[warm spoke]

sadly there's not a lot of theorycrafting left to do with engravings. like 90% of them are shit and Korea's done the thinking before us.

[stone fjord]

yikes, why even keep them in the game, just leave the 5 that everyone uses smh

[flat dagger]

Buffing some of the niche ones would be cool.

[stone fjord]

why even bother having an engraving system, might as well make them passives you get when you level

[buoyant herald]

nah engravings are cool i really love the system

[warm spoke]

yeah it's kinda pointless but as you'll see in tier 3 the systems are already hardcoded into the game

i think they should buff/rework all the useless ones as well for more build diversity

[flat dagger]

It will help accessibility for viable builds and scarcity causing huge price influx.

[warm spoke]

the system is cool but the meta is a bit stagnant

[ancient lark]

to add more rng into the game

[buoyant herald]

its not even meta there just are useless ones 😄 some only work for pvp

[flat dagger]

The RNG would be the same, technically less for a viable build though.

[warm spoke]

yeah rng issues would actually be lessened

imagine if that gold explosive expert book you got actually sold for 2k

[flat dagger]

If it increased capacity, damage and effect level +1, then maybe it'd be decent.

[warm spoke]

nah that shit is never getting used LOL

[low trail]

it is in hellmode

[stone fjord]

are oneshot mechanics in this game actually oneshot or do they just deal a lot of damage?

[warm spoke]

true but like eh

[flat dagger]

Wipe = Wipe

[warm spoke]

depends on the attack

[buoyant herald]

there are both

[stone fjord]

I see 🤔

[low trail]

some do some don't

[warm spoke]

some do enough damage to wipe but not if you're overleveled, others just straight up kill you

[flat dagger]

Maybe it being avoided by Timestop means it just does high damage? Any correlation?

[warm spoke]

nah that's not consistent

[buoyant herald]

^

its weird XD can be both

[stone fjord]

so im guessing crisis evasion doesnt help against the oneshots anyway

[buoyant herald]

it helps against some

[stone fjord]

[buoyant herald]

but the ones that matter are just straight up wipes

[low trail]

also nobody would run crisis evasion just to dodge wipe mechanics

that sounds so pointless

[buoyant herald]

yeah just do the mechanic

[flat dagger]

Wipes 50x in a row due to failed mechanic

[buoyant herald]

[flat dagger]

HM Vykas G1 anyone?

[low trail]

I'd rather wipe 50x to learn the mechanic than never learn it and cheese it all the time

[buoyant herald]

yall wiped 50x on g1 ? XDDD

[flat dagger]

I once tried 9 different parties for PUG HM Vykas G1, you won't believe how bad people are.

[warm spoke]

it can be really clutch in an increeeedibly minor amount of situations

[buoyant herald]

[warm spoke]

mostly: when you've ALMOST killed the boss and everyone dies to some huge attack, but because of crisis evasion you're still up and can barely finish it off

[flat dagger]

Apply that to Valtan

[warm spoke]

cuz otherwise, if you're the only one left alive you won't have enough dps anyway

[buoyant herald]

if you had more damage it would have died by then

[stone fjord]

I love how Drops of Ether technically gives the biggest dmg buff but because its rng no one picks it

[warm spoke]

well, depends

it can buy you anywhere from 10 seconds to 3 minutes

[flat dagger]

I run Lv. 1 temporarily since it was cheap for the last relic accessory I need before going 5x3+1.

[warm spoke]

i'm not sure a level 1 damage engraving can contribute 3 minutes of dps

[flat dagger]

For context.

[warm spoke]

no it's great supports run it all the time

[low trail]

First week probably idk

[warm spoke]

it's my favourite thing when the support drops a crit ether

[rain meadow]

the problem with drops of ether is not that supports don't run it, it's that dps don't pick up the orbs

[stone fjord]

OH so other people can pick them up as well? Thats a yikes

[flat dagger]

All party members can yes.

[buoyant herald]

idk who you play with but whenever we see a dmg or crit ether we fight over it

[warm spoke]

ye which is why it's great on supports

[spiral thistle]

This channel isn't for general discussion, it is kinda out of hand at this point.

[flat dagger]

#lost-ark-discussions 😄

[warm spoke]

bruh moment

[stone fjord]

are we supposed to barge in there now and stop the other people's conversation? yikes

[flat dagger]

Threads are a thing, no idea if enabled though.

[spiral thistle]

Minor discussion is fine here but just because this channel has low activity from questions does not make it a discussion channel because when we did/said nothing this channel became all discussion and escapism from general/discussion channels and legit questions got pushed away without replies.

[thorny seal]

Never got this error before

[pine oasis]

is it worth using gold for knowledge transfer?

[flat dagger]

Yes/No, depends on your value of time.

[buoyant herald]

only really 0 to 50

[rain meadow]

vern yes, everything else, debatable depending on who you ask

[flat dagger]

With the prices of uncommon engravings, it can be technically worth doing Lv. 10 -> Lv. 50 too.

[pine oasis]

made a 2nd chara, was thinking to get it to 50 using knowledge transfer to vern asap so that i can save time and make more gold that way

[ancient lark]

most msq is around 2-3h the worth is subjective

[rain meadow]

a lot of sources of uncommon engravings though

[buoyant herald]

i'd rather jump off a bridge than do 10-50 again

[rain meadow]

islands, a lot of various vendors, weekly challenge content...

[flat dagger]

Unfortunately the vendors are also the ones on the islands And they require a lot of currently on said island specifically.

[limpid obsidian]

Yes if you have a decent amount of gold.

[pine oasis]

only had 1500 and now 900 🙂

[spiral thistle]

Unrelated. The quests that reward engravings are left behind from KT. You can go back to any character you KT'd and grab them all.

[flat dagger]

Oh really? All of them?

[limpid obsidian]

Well, the first KT(North Vern) is well worth at any point in the game. But if you're that short on gold then the later ones prolly aren't worth.

[spiral thistle]

Maybe not 100% but a lot. A friend sent me a screen of the amount of books he could go back and grab and it was a hefty amount.

[warm spoke]

don't you get the 2 north vern powerpasses anymore?

[flat dagger]

Without KT it's something like 40+ books.

[limpid obsidian]

Disabled

[inner wing]

Haha

[warm spoke]

even those??

[ancient lark]

powe pass is disabled

[pine oasis]

yes, i transferred to vern bc i think its where you get the t1 gear

[warm spoke]

damn

[inner wing]

North Vern KT does give you 302ilvl gear

[warm spoke]

i thought at least those would be safe

[ancient lark]

t1 and t2 alt doesn't make much gold

[flat dagger]

Then you get all the books for sure yea, even with KT.

At least I got roster XP when I did the journey to North Vern 5x...

[ancient lark]

so those books mostly from side quests

[warm spoke]

five times oh my god how have you not quit

[pine oasis]

whats the roster level even for?

[flat dagger]

Sitting at Isle of Yearning right now, 6th bag drop just 20 minutes ago

[warm spoke]

a bifrost key at some point and then basically nothing

[rough hare]

Where is weekly reset?

[warm spoke]

masochism.

[flat dagger]

In 13 minutes.

[ancient lark]

small unnoticed stats

[inner wing]

bc, vitality, bifrost key, trade life energy, sh energy pills

[flat dagger]

Vanity

[pine oasis]

so basically copium

[inner wing]

Flex power

[flat dagger]

Some parties will only accept >X Roster Level.

[ancient lark]

you can join those alt run with minimum 200 roster lv

[halcyon parrot]

hey guys any news regarding the powerpass

like when will they enable them again?

[flat dagger]

Can someone explain to me why the number is so damn high? 😄

[fossil fiber]

Yeah they will enable it in 2 years buddy good luck!

[brittle tulip]

did the guild stuff reset already?
i just logged and got the weekly bloodstones and can choose new tasks but reset is in 7 minutes

[flat dagger]

Reset for guild stuff isn't at the same time as daily / weekly.
But donating is 👀

[halcyon parrot]

broooooo!!!!!!!

[brittle tulip]

oh i guess i never noticed

[pine oasis]

i cant find the copium star una's task status

[flat dagger]

Search for the star as an item, check task's description for the reputation name and look that up under reputations.

[limpid obsidian]

Omnium star? You mean the one in Tikatika?

[brazen leaf]

What is the cheapest way to get to 1460? I just want the 1460 honing buff

[limpid obsidian]

All 18

[flat dagger]

Equal item levels.

[warm spoke]

every item +1

[brazen leaf]

😦

[pine oasis]

how many points is it per completion?

[flat dagger]

You also only get a maximum of 10 points per day, per roster.

[limpid obsidian]

Una tasks always give 10 rep. You can check the rewards (including rep) in the ... rewards section

[pine oasis]

will both of these give points?

[limpid obsidian]

Checkmark indicates you've already gotten the rep, so an alt can't grab more rep by doing the same quest.

[flat dagger]

Yes.

[limpid obsidian]

Yeah, some quests just swap around(disable the first one and enable another one) after a certain number of completions. To vary it up I guess?

[flat dagger]

You can get 20+ points in a single day by fully finishing a quest's maximum completions and then doing the next quest in the reputation.

[barren summit]

dafuck?

[limpid obsidian]

Yeah, cuz those count as different tasks.

[warm spoke]

151 billion damage? seems normal to me

[flat dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/team-rocket-pokemon-fly-sky-anime-gif-16659565

So no explaination?

[warm spoke]

what, you don't usually do 151 billion damage with all your skills? sounds like a skill issue

[pine oasis]

looks like a serial number to me

how long does it take to get to 1415 from 1370?

[brazen leaf]

15k gold ish

[pine oasis]

on the lower side?

[brazen leaf]

Actually more than that

I found this from reddit

[pine oasis]

17k if being generous?

[brazen leaf]

170k gold

That is average by the wya

[remote spindle]

whats the relic gear set used for chaos dungeons again? the one with AOE lighting

[brazen leaf]

Bertrayal

[remote spindle]

I can use that on any class right?

[inner wing]

Yes

[remote spindle]

okii tyty

[exotic crow]

doing challenge abyss dungeon on lower ilvl doesn't affect loot right?

[flat dagger]

Correct.

[umbral hawk]

guys anyone experiencing the server authentication failed 10010 when u open the game?

[limpid obsidian]

That could only be accurate if it assumes all the materials are bought with gold.
Since most people will likely have a lot of bound materials to work with the cost in raw gold is gonna be a fraction of that graph.

[hexed plinth]

Do you use VPN or Hotspot?

[amber folio]

170k if you pity everything i think

[fluid aurora]

hello ! i Consumed my powerpass ticket that i receiver after completing Vern after my 1st play thro , and now can't find it anywhere when i try to use it when i am at character select i only have 1 character level 50 ? is that bug ?

[amber folio]

powerpasses are disabled rn

[umbral hawk]

no

[amber folio]

but you can use knowledge transfer from your stronghold to make an alt 50 lvl

[fluid aurora]

is there any guide for it , cuz i am new to the game

[hexed plinth]

Idk then

[amber folio]

https://lost-ark.maxroll.gg/resources/knowledge-transfer-guide

[elder slate]

any free argos bus in EU central?

[fluid aurora]

oh i c but that gonna use gold, don't you think that give advantage for other players who used Powerpass before ? cuz it's kinda unfair they got it , and i can't use ( even i received it )

[inner wing]

Check the different lobbies in Party Finder, you may end up finding something like "Blabla Twitch stream free bus wooo, follow"

[elder slate]

i am not able to thats why asking here

[amber folio]

they will make it usable after some time but nobody knows when

[elder slate]

and my guild is somewhat random

[amber folio]

i dont think people will give free busses

[inner wing]

They need something in exchange, yes
Gold, followers etc

[elder slate]

oh

yeaor guild members do it for free also

but i have no guild

[hallow portal]

Everyone got it, but some didn’t use it before they turned it off due to a problem. They’ll turn it on when they fix the issue.

[inner wing]

You should join a guild even if it's somewhat random, as it gives you some bloodstones for the guild shop. It's nice

[elder slate]

yea

[fluid aurora]

thanks for both of you for giving time to answer my questions @hallow portal @amber folio

[pine oasis]

can you unequip t3 items to lower your item level for abyss loot?

[inner wing]

No

It counts the highest ilvl you've reached ("earned")

[pine oasis]

seems like devs knew that i would think of this

[alpine owl]

i killed so many time vykas but why i dont have this title ? should doing something?

[pine oasis]

you need to date her and not kill her

[maiden locust]

How many times ? It’s 10 I believe

[alpine owl]

idk with main and alts in hC mode but i dont have this title yet

[maiden locust]

You should be able to check

[inner wing]

https://lostarkcodex.com/us/achievement/6130103/

Check the achievement, not the title

[alpine owl]

thx

[maiden locust]

do we know why the power passes are disabled?

[pliant locust]

so i completed my first guardian raid but i didnt get any gold, i got the chest and i opened it but i didnt get any gold. I read somwhere that after completing a guardian raid for the first time you get gold. is the information wrong or is it something i stil need to do?

[ocean parcel]

i'm new to leading a guild, is there a priority here on what to research ?

[silver rain]

guardian raids dont give out gold thats abyssal. you're prolly confusing that with the Guardian raid questline which gives like 250g per guardian

[pseudo wasp]

Need help i cant open my combat skills . Tried validating it still cant open

[pine oasis]

how amny albion mats are req for sword?

[silver rain]

chosen weap? 15

[pine oasis]

thats what sh needs, yes?

[buoyant herald]

yes

[pine oasis]

ty

aria's oculus boss was? nvm it was that shitty clown

[inner wing]

Seto?

👌

[buoyant herald]

both tier 3 hm dungeons drop the mats for chosen gear

[pine oasis]

do you get same amount of mats on dismantling the chosen sword?

[silver rain]

if you mean dismantling and recraft then yes you get all 15 back

[pine oasis]

oh

estimated selling price?

[maiden locust]

u can dismantle

[pine oasis]

can deathblade use this?

[pliant locust]

is there a better way to get gold other than the guardian raid questline. keep in mind i just finished the vern stuff, so im pretty new to endgame stuff

[silver rain]

Abyssal dungeons, weekly una tokens

[pine oasis]

is dismantling accessories and selling mats more profitable than selling accs as is?

[radiant flame]

If an accessory sells, then it’s always better. But your accessory is worthless

[maiden locust]

^

[silver rain]

if it sells but in your case yes cuz no one gonna buy that one

[pine oasis]

how do i know if its worth selling or not?

[frigid flare]

can we leave the chaos dungeon earlier and keep the rest bonus? (never tried myself)

[maiden locust]

if u wanna sell accs go to AH > Register > put ur accs > search

if anything come out with some value u can sell it

[pine oasis]

ah?

[maiden locust]

Auction House

[silver rain]

rest gets used as soon as the dungeon start (you start moving 1st stage- even not moving its already used along with resonance)

[frigid flare]

ty

[pine oasis]

comes on this window?

[maiden locust]

press search

[pine oasis]

no results

[radiant flame]

You can right click on the accessory and click search too, and it should do it automatically. Look for recent sales for a better indication. But you need to sort of learn the good engravings and what classes will use. But for legendary accessories , you will be looking at at least +3/+3 with a relevant stat and high quality for something to sell

[maiden locust]

and u can dismantle that ring

[radiant flame]

For example, demonic impulse accessories will only sell with specialisation

[pine oasis]

what other engravings are considered good?

[maiden locust]

mostly accs with spec stat with BiS more value

example demonic impulse +3 / Grudge +3

[radiant flame]

There is a list in #info-dump, but you need to just learn the different class combos

[amber folio]

[pine oasis]

#info-dump message
this one?

[amber folio]

those are the important engravings others are bad

[radiant flame]

Yes. But even then there are some less desirable engravings there (stuff for supports). Very Generally, class engraving + grudge/cursed doll/KBW/ambush or hit master with good stat will be valuable

[grand solar]

anyone have a plan how to fix the store? i cant buy Royal Crystals all time when i click on buy and click then on 20 euro nothing happend just like on my screenshot https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/866402555751170049/1006640879676698784/unknown.png

[limpid obsidian]

Check with Steam support.

[worn cipher]

I have a question, my chat shorckut to speak in raid does not work

It is said /u but don't do shit

[spiral pulsar]

Are balance changes live?

[pine oasis]

you need to have an active raid channel

[worn cipher]

I am in a raid currently

[pure lotus]

are tripod page extensions character or roster wide?

[real radish]

Is it worth selling gems for gold or nah I noticed level 7 gem is prtty rare in market

[slender stump]

If you have ur main gemmed woth 7s and need some gold, sure

[real radish]

if i dont would it be considered like a last resort type of thing for gold

[slender stump]

No content requires higher than lvl 7 gems(and alts can have lvl 5s), so I wouldn't say it's a last resort

[real radish]

Do u know how much a lv 7 usually goes for?

[dry snow]

is there a way to give harmony shards to alts

[slender stump]

Depends on the class/market

[slender hound]

R powerpasses enabled now ?

[buoyant herald]

nope

#announcements

[slender hound]

Ok thx

[real radish]

Its deadeye :p

[thin token]

i personally rather just fuse gems over time to lvl 7 and just give them to my alts, and usually lvl 7 gems go between 7k-10k gold

[slender stump]

I'm selling them to buy grudge books, 1:1 seems a good deal imo

[real radish]

Idrk how much of a priority full 7s are for raids so Idk if I shud sell now

[buoyant herald]

full lvl 5's is fine

[slender stump]

Tbh I wouldn't accept anyone who doesn't have full 7s for kakul

[thin token]

i think for vykas hard mode / clown raid u might get gate kept without lvl 7 gems

[real radish]

will i get gatekeeped from valtan? cos im close tho that on my main

[glossy swallow]

I know that technically if i would put some of my time into this i could check this, but i'll ask first, because someone might know.

Stuff like field boss/chaos gates are always in same days, right? their rotation is stable.
could someone tell me days when field boss is available, and when chaos gate?

[thin token]

nah valtan super easy now-a-days and lvl 5 gems have been the reccomended before but i think now-a-days u can get by with less too

[real radish]

i see, thanks a lot for the help

[spiral gate]

how worth is bussing argos p3 on 1370 for 2.5k? sorry for being a noob

[slender stump]

Well, you are losing gold, unless you really want to push it, I'd try to find a cheaper one

[silver rain]

you get 2.7k from Argos 500g for chest

[thin token]

[limpid obsidian]

Yep.
Chaos Gate: Monday, Thursday, Saturday, Sunday
Field Boss: Tuesday, Friday, Sunday

[glossy swallow]

Thanks, that'll help me pretty much

[dry snow]

do i use all the alt mats on 1 character ? or spread it among them

[rose jewel]

that depends on way too many things, first of all, what ilvl is your main, what ilvl are your alt/s, how many of them do you have, what is your goal, how many mats do you have or can buy

your main should always be higher ilvl to be able to get the stronghold researches

[dry snow]

should hit 1370 on main today,
340 alts
5 alts

[glossy swallow]

i personally have materials on characters, and everyone else is below 1385, because i want gold from oreha dungeon, and i'm not keen on pushing them through legion raids, not worth it that in that term right now for me,

[rose jewel]

okay that's easy, keep pushing main to at least 1385, all the alts will funnel mats between them, your only problem will be shards imo

focus on 1 alt at a time to get from t1 to t2, then the next alt to t2 so that alt can funnel alt #1 with mats for him to reach t3 faster

[glossy swallow]

Hitting 1370 on alts is huge, you are starting to earn bigger leapstones, so you can start hoarding them for future, But getting your main into later and later content will let you snowball him faster

[rose jewel]

the faster you get your alts to t3, the faster your main will be able to hone further and the more gold you can make weekly

[dry snow]

okay gotcha

[glossy swallow]

Hitting t3 on alts shall be much easier, because A) Tower on alts gives ton of upgrade materials B) in stronghold you have honing buffs to discover

[dry snow]

tower gives upgrade mats?

[glossy swallow]

On alts

First clear gives cards/gifts/stuff like this, and other clears on new characters give mats

for t1-2 * what might be important to say

[rose jewel]

and its per alt, so its a very good source of mats

[dry snow]

it should be easier than i thought ig

[glossy swallow]

Reaching gear plateau, doing abyss dungeon, getting purple/orange gear from dungeon, plunging into tower, getting mats from it, rage honing till done, repeat

What should take you the most time is clearing story over and over again, but it's huge boost of roster xp

And in south vern cards too

[dry snow]

that shouldnt a big of a deal ig

[glossy swallow]

It's not hard, but taking time and sanity.

[dry snow]

yeah true

[glossy swallow]

Don't, just don't one shot clown in punika 1st dungeon. you won't receive rewards

i've did it on 2 alts and haven't received honing mats, which were actually worth it then, because i made them before argos

[dry snow]

didnt know, thanks for the tip

[glossy swallow]

If you have alts using similar engravings, you can invest some gold into getting them to purple tier, it'll help a lot with tower/daily stuff/story

You can also put 3 low tier blue gems from main character, fuse them on alt, and receive tier higher with skill for your class

[dry snow]

aha

[glossy swallow]

and i know it might be obvious, but it wasn't for me,
runes are account shared, so put them on alts

[dry snow]

yep i realized that

[pine oasis]

do mokoko seeds count towards adventure tome completion?

[limpid obsidian]

No

[spiral pulsar]

Does a paladin and bard buff stack?

[inner wing]

Yes

[subtle flower]

how much completion does illusion isle require

[glossy swallow]

Buffs for att stack, but debuffs ( sound mark, light vestige they were called?) doesn't

[rough hare]

Where to get this book?

[rain meadow]

express event

[vernal venture]

Hello ! i unlock Valtan, but i dont understand how gate work
is it like argos ? you have to do it at once ? or exemple you can do one today and the other one tomorrow ?

[fair mantle]

One today and another tomorrow

[vernal venture]

oh perfect !

[rain meadow]

ideally you do them both at once, to avoid the hassle of finding another party

[frigid flare]

the mvp list at the end of a dungeon goes from top(better) to bottom(worst) or??

[peak wadi]

Does running chaos dungeons in a group give more loot?

[maiden locust]

no

[peak wadi]

so there's no advantage of doing it in group

[maiden locust]

yup

[fair mantle]

Random order

[maiden locust]

is it bugged that i cant get my striker 1302 ilvl gear?

cuz ive been trying to get my gloves for 6days

[fair mantle]

[maiden locust]

chaos dungeons wont drop the gloves

your just getting really really unlucky
