[sleek ore]

Random love you

[maiden locust]

how can somebody be that unlucky?

[inner wing]

Check your auto dismantle settings

[maiden locust]

its off

[rose jewel]

ive heard of 1 week without drop, so

[maiden locust]

couldnt be me 💀

[inner wing]

Soon

[sleek ore]

It’s ok for lost ark. Random in this game cursed good luck🤞🏻

[maiden locust]

funny that i cant buy the gear from the auction

[rose jewel]

very funny indeed

[sleek ore]

It is transmitted, if I remember correctly. If you have an acquaintance or friend, then ask him

[rose jewel]

...? no

[sleek ore]

No? In Korean server it works

[rose jewel]

huh? since when

[maiden locust]

yea well im in eu

[rose jewel]

doesnt matter, it doesnt work, you cant buy nor trade 1302 gear, anywhere, unless they updated it or smt

[tawdry canopy]

If the guild contribution is set to 350 goal, do I get more bloodstones if I go over that number?

[maiden locust]

no same amount every week

[tawdry canopy]

kk

[unkempt ruin]

Hello - kinda new to the game havent got any friends lol - https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/942964651728195625/1006936934830067792/unknown.png?width=819&height=676 can I make this gear and then transfer them to preordained set when I have enough argos blood?

[maiden locust]

no u cant trasnfer same gear

[rose jewel]

what? you can

[maiden locust]

leg > relic can

[rose jewel]

legendary gear is a 1:1 transfer

he definitely can

[wary flicker]

You just waste some gold but yes

[topaz zephyr]

So I just unlocked the ability to do gear conversion I have a few questions. Does it cost a resource to convert my relic set?

[maiden locust]

only silver

[topaz zephyr]

What set would a palidan use in chaos dungeon?

[maiden locust]

any set can

[rose jewel]

k so, for week 1 after you reach 1370 you wanna clear hard mode abyss and buy both chests, that way you can make 3 pieces (weapon is a must), then you can either 1- clear argos p1 and have enough for 2 pieces, making it 5 legendary in total out of 6 or 2- buy a bus for p3 getting enough mats for the whole 6 legendary pieces for easier honing. Then you will be crafting argos armor until you get the whole 5 set piece, gear transfering from abyss to argos

[topaz zephyr]

If I have 4pc yearning and 2pc dominion could I convert to 6pc yearning?

[maiden locust]

yes u can use transform/gear set conversion

[rose jewel]

if you already got 55 relic items from valtan and vykas, you can convert any piece anytime

[topaz zephyr]

Fantastic

[rose jewel]

i forgot chaos dungeon set tho .-.

[fading lily]

does anyone know what audio setting controls boss sounds? trying to hear valtan grunts on 65x counter better

[tight tartan]

How do I get gold from rapport quests

[quasi ore]

Should i buy juice mats for weapon 17-18 ? or just raw dog it

[tight tartan]

I got hariya to freindly and I don't see any gold

[fair mantle]

You can see the rewards of rapport in the rapport tab or press the gift icon on top of the npc

[fair mantle]

iirc it's only solar grace

[quasi ore]

so i should buy only solar graces ?

[rose jewel]

maxroll honing calc, probably, check it out

sometimes buying juice is more expensive than raw honing

[fair mantle]

What's your Mari price at rn, I'll put it in the calc

[turbid cobalt]

when are we getting tripod changes?

[crisp turtle]

is there/what is the next checkpoint for una's tokens after 1415?

[quasi ore]

760/95

[fair mantle]

Looks like even grace isn't efficient to buy then

[quasi ore]

so just raw dog it then ?

[fair mantle]

Yup

[knotty turtle]

Does anyone know what I should do, my internet died during last cutscene on Vykas after clearing it

[maiden locust]

log back as soon as you can

[knotty turtle]

I already did, no rewards, teleported straight to Vern :_:

[buoyant herald]

you out of luck then

[knotty turtle]

F

[timber mauve]

Keep an eye on your mail to see if you get a ticket. Highly doubt you will since it was a client side issue.

[maiden locust]

you can look for an entry ticket in your mail, but you might be unlucky - they don't refund entries if it was your internet connection

[rose jewel]

give it 48hrs, if nothing, then pat pat

[cerulean pine]

I get this error alert, it says cant connect with game, leaving game

[primal jolt]

Are the splendid card packs from challenge abyssals worth anything?

[cerulean pine]

what does that mean

[ripe sedge]

Need opinion, guys. Do I skip opening Valtan HM chest after getting all the Valtan bones I need?

[unkempt ruin]

I've got a few disconnects today - all different error codes Im not sure whats happening :(

[ripe sedge]

My Pally is gonna be parked at 1460 for a long while. Need to get my alts up from 1370 to 1415, so could use the extra gold from not opening Valtan chests on my Pally.

Good idea? Bad idea?

[rose jewel]

you do the actual mechanic for him to not get 3 stacks

[rose jewel]

fused leaps on g2 valtan chest, they could help later down the road, up to you in the end, its a good amount of raw gold

the faster you get them to 1415, the faster you start getting that juicy 3300g weekly

[ripe sedge]

Reason I'm undecided is cuz I could potentially use that gold to buy GHL's for my alts (Yoho is a fk'ing nightmare to MM nowadays) or cover their honing gold costs.

[rose jewel]

whenever he gets staggered, he gets 1 stack of his buff, 3 stacks = he hits harder and when he grabs you its a 1shot for whoever got grabbed and big aoe dealing massive dmg, imo 1hit as well, to reduce the stacks you gotta 1- not stagger him, which you slow the stagger amount by standing on the purple pools when he smashes the ball on the ground and 2-getting grabbed before the 3 stacks, every 2nd "up down left right" swings then aoe he grabs 1 person and a stagger check bar starts, stagger him and you get 2 stacks down

tldr; check a guide video on mechanics if you dont wanna read

[silent stone]

Is there any point in doing agros if I have all my gear teir 3 now

[maiden locust]

gold

[rose jewel]

materials, gold

[maiden locust]

stand still

[rose jewel]

you think fast

play safe and only throw skills whenever he starts doing any other move

[pine oasis]

is thronespire chara based or roster based?

[maiden locust]

roster

[cerulean pine]

bro how can such a big game be on steam but it wont even start? like wtf is wrong wit hmy version why doesnt it start i tried EVERY single solution made from the forum nothing works man :////

[maiden locust]

do you have any other EAC game running, like black desert?

[cerulean pine]

like installed on the pc or running simultanious?

[maiden locust]

either

[cerulean pine]

Idk tbh i have one or to installed i guess

[maiden locust]

you can try uninstalling them, then verify your LA files

[cerulean pine]

In EAC or steam librabry

[maiden locust]

just make sure a clean version of EAC is installed

[cerulean pine]

So uhm how do i make sure a "clean" version is instaleld

[maiden locust]

uninstall everything that uses it, verify LA files to reinstall

best just delete the entire folder

[cerulean pine]

what folder exaclty? like can u give direction

actually, the game started, but it couldnt connect so it closed. then i did what the shitty forums told me to and it wont even start at all

great forums xd

[maiden locust]

did you really follow instructions on steam or the game forums?

don't do it again mate lol

[cerulean pine]

i searched the error code

this shit came up, i did what i t said now the loading screen wont even pop up

i had the same problem with the loading screen yesterday, i had to reinstall until it worked. couldnt connect tho

i dont even get why its not even fucking starting the loading screen? like how is that even possible man :/ my pc aint that bad

[maiden locust]

because it doesn't get past EAC

[cerulean pine]

but why not

[maiden locust]

that's your issue, so forget about the game not launching, try to figure out why. Delete everything that uses EAC, delete the folder, reinstall the game, etc

[cerulean pine]

I really dont want to reinstall again

that shit takes hours :/, i did like 3 times already

[maiden locust]

at least delete EAC and make steam re-verify the files

[cerulean pine]

also when you say delete the folder, what folder do you mean? idk which to delete

[maiden locust]

literally says it in the post you quoted

[cerulean pine]

this?

[maiden locust]

did you run that

[cerulean pine]

yes it said repair current game

should i delete that EAC folder?

[maiden locust]

if that repair then verifying your game files doesn't work, you will have to try something else

[cerulean pine]

man :(, it even worked but then it randomly didnt anymore idk

[rose jewel]

uhhh, is your problem "It loads EAC but game's loading screen never shows" ?

@cerulean pine

[cerulean pine]

So the little windows pops up with EAC in the bottom left, then it dissapears and nothing happens anymore

[rose jewel]

easy fix, gime a sec

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/903532775200665671/994466373919068310/2022-07-06_23_54_04-Window.png delete that file, tell me the results

[maiden locust]

wow is that shit still around lol

[rose jewel]

never left

[cerulean pine]

I tried okay

Lets see if it loads

[rose jewel]

you can restart steam, or your pc entirely, if it doesnt smh, but it should

[cerulean pine]

Its loading finally

[lapis moth]

When I'm in the skill tree inventory window, how come some skills that are clearly tracked don't show the tracking icon.

[maiden locust]

signum for president

[rose jewel]

ez fix

[cerulean pine]

That was a really easy fix damn, but do you think it will connect to the game? it always says not connected and then leaves

[rose jewel]

it will, i have been telling people this fix for like, a month or so by now, every single one could play again, lol

no, i did not figure this out, i saw it in the forums

[inner wing]

Pin when?

[rose jewel]

we could tell/ask fogel to pin the pic, or the pathing, with a lil explanation

[cerulean pine]

Dude

it finally works thanks so much everyone

[rose jewel]

another happy customer happy gaming

[cerulean pine]

whats a good card set

[maiden locust]

should i just solo the challenge gaurdians if i cant find a lobby?

[inner wing]

Light of Salvation 30-awakening

[cerulean pine]

for dmg good?

[inner wing]

Yes good for dmg

[rose jewel]

they are scaled to 4man player's HP even if you enter solo, you can solo if you're good, but they're sponges

[maiden locust]

so i just cant do them then lol

[wary flicker]

matchmake?

[rose jewel]

you can if you're good 😄

[maiden locust]

there are no players same with party finder

[cerulean pine]

is light os salvation good for every char?

[vernal dock]

most characters yes

[cerulean pine]

for sharpshooter? do i even deal holy dmg

crying rocc has 7% crit chance isnt that good too

[wary flicker]

i just queued took 10s to get a party not sure whats up with yours, are you NA/EU/SA?

[maiden locust]

im on euw

[inner wing]

Crying rocc hmm, Light Of Salvation 30-awakening is better than crying rocc's 7% crit chance

[wary flicker]

well thats your problem then lol euw is only populated by you

[maiden locust]

true

[wary flicker]

they should stop dragging euw out and give them server xfers

[buoyant herald]

they say "we dont have that technology"

[primal jolt]

I got my party list stuck behind the dungeon name part of the UI pls help

[inner wing]

Alt + X, maybe it'll free up some window which will allow you to move it

[primal jolt]

I can get to the settings gear icon but unable to drag or move anything else

[inner wing]

Send screenshot, I need to visualize the situation

[inner wing]

You can't move the timer thingy?

[wary flicker]

wait 5 min until you leave dungeon

[cerulean pine]

where do i see the tab with the prices for like getting wood cutting lvl 5 or something

[simple knoll]

just asking in the future will have something like practice mode?

[inner wing]

[L] ?

[cerulean pine]

well not L , when you first cut wood and stuff you get like 100 silver for it

[inner wing]

There's already the training in Trixion and the other training which introduce you some mechs (ex: weakpoints, counter)

[simple knoll]

for i meant for the fights

[inner wing]

Create a practice group or something then hmmmm?

[cerulean pine]

i got so many rewards for nothing

[simple knoll]

last week i get carried in valtan but i wanted to do it more for train my self but i couldnt

[cerulean pine]

i got so muhc ok i need help

[inner wing]

Ye, you need to find a practice grp

[hot dock]

is there a way to get gold in adventure pvp island without killin anyone

[cerulean pine]

which of these should i pic

[silver rain]

you have clown rehearsal raid at 1385, Abrel deja vu g1-4 at 1430 the mechs are similar

[cerulean pine]

oooh its mokoko chalanges , i got all of these for the second time idk why

whihc ones of these should i pick?

[maiden locust]

the bottom one gives you the most pirate coins

[inner wing]

The last 1 card you'll be missing to complete your LoS 18-awakening or your LoS 30-awakening

[maiden locust]

isnt that only gate 2 pvp?

[inner wing]

None yet

[cerulean pine]

okay so no coins and last card?

[inner wing]

Whot? No?

[cerulean pine]

what so should i pick it or not

[hot dock]

dnt pick anything unless u bought everything already

[inner wing]

If you're missing 1 card to complete your LoS 18/30 awakening, you should

[cerulean pine]

okay so i dont pick now got it

[wary flicker]

if you are planning on playing this game for several years save, if you arent sure, who cares use it if it gets you the set bonus even if you're 2-3 away

because its going to take year or more of not buying cards unless extremely lucky

[cerulean pine]

to get LoS?

[wary flicker]

yes expect a year or 2 at least on average

[dusk veldt]

i mean yea LoS 30 is a long term goal

[silver rain]

Deja vu is abrel gate 1-4

i think there's something on LOA event sometime about making PvP practice like Abrel G2 but i dont think it has been implemented

[maiden locust]

ohh oke

[fallow needle]

Game wont get past the Anticheat window

[pine oasis]

verify game files and restart pc

[rose jewel]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/903532775200665671/994466373919068310/2022-07-06_23_54_04-Window.png delete that file and try again

[peak wadi]

uhh does dismantling argos blood give leapstones??

[timber mauve]

Yes

[peak wadi]

i didn't get any

is it rng?

[wraith raft]

hey, is this worth anything? legendary necklace i dropped from chaos, nothing similar on ah, i guess without crit nothing special?

[timber mauve]

You get them. I’ve never not gotten any on the 9 characters i kill him on each week.

[peak wadi]

no, no build will use both spec and swift on neck

[wraith raft]

ty, i'll try to sell it ^^

[timber mauve]

No class uses master of escape.

[peak wadi]

weird, all i see is this

[fallow needle]

now it works

[peak wadi]

just got honor shards

[timber mauve]

Check inventory, they are there.

[peak wadi]

are they tradable or non-tradable

[maiden locust]

non tradable

[rose jewel]

they dont display the window for what you got anymore, it auto poofs, but the items are there

[flat sandal]

what exactly I should do with these for maximum profit? (euc)

[maiden locust]

what should I focus on honing? get my paladin to 1445 or gunslinger to 1475 or both my striker and paladin to 1430?

[maiden locust]

do what gives you more gold

you have 2 months before clown comes out

[heavy sleet]

Rip eso

[inland cosmos]

hey guys, yesterday i put 300 basic orehas to craft, and it looks like they dissapeared from the craft

[maiden locust]

did you claim them on another character?

[inland cosmos]

no, i put them to craft and logged out

[half carbon]

do you get more mats if you use mining or herb in higher lvl zones?

[dire bone]

pinnacle is also spec swift

[dire bone]

The purple nodes give more but I don’t think the normal ones do

[young dove]

Hey i played oreha dunegon on hard and only got 1 of the materials even with the chest open at the end .

[rose jewel]

🤔

were you expecting 30 like the first time reward? i legit dont think you can only get 1 from a run

[wary flicker]

you get 3 , and 3 from chest, so its impossible to get 1

[glossy swallow]

How much gold valtan/vykas normal/hard give, with/w.o chests?

[rose jewel]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/903532775200665671/1000275685841055804/unknown-3.png

[young dove]

no and its not the first time run , but i was expecting more...

[rose jewel]

you cant get 1, you get at the very least 3

[wary flicker]

im doing it on an alt right now, you get 3

and 3 from chest

[young dove]

am i stupid i had 10 ended it , and then had 11

[rose jewel]

is that aira or oreha

[wary flicker]

3 for first, im on albion now i'll let you know

[dire bone]

It’s 3 and 5 for aira and oreha right

[rose jewel]

should be

[young dove]

well i fucked up and started the second one on normal

[rose jewel]

figured

[wary flicker]

yeah 5 for hard albion

[maiden locust]

Hi there, if i hone to 1415 but i didn't do south vern quest, can i do the chaos dungeon for 1415?

[heavy jolt]

No you need the SV story quest

[timber mauve]

No

[rose jewel]

gotta get them card packs

[maiden locust]

you also need to do sv to be able to do legion raids im pretty sure

[rose jewel]

yes but no, only with your main

any alt can do valtan asap once they hit 1415

[timber mauve]

You need to do south Vern once per account to do legion raids. Was able to do Valtan without south Vern msq done on an alt.

[maiden locust]

okay

[flat sandal]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/988136897085861948/1004117215316025354/yst09w4g3qb91.png?width=417&height=701 am I seeing correctly that it takes ~250k shards from 1370 to 1415 with stronghold buff?

[timber mauve]

Sounds about right.

[mellow wigeon]

wow i just watch on youtube, u get ban for bussing now?

[white flume]

why are prices of legendary books increasing?

[maiden locust]

no

[rose jewel]

did you really expect all the books to stay low

[dusk veldt]

Cause people are buying them

[maiden locust]

whats the cheapes way to get 3x3 on 1370 gunslinger?

[timber mauve]

The same way you get 3x3 on other characters by having peacemaker at lvl 3. Pretty bad, but it’s the cheapest way.

[maiden locust]

what other engravings do you use on gunslinger tho

[timber mauve]

Grudge, cursed doll, hit master, adrenaline, and keen blunt

Anything else is really not good at all.

[maiden locust]

so i can do adrenaline cursed doll peacemaker as a 3x3?

[white flume]

when is clown boss coming in?

and what are the rewards

[silver rain]

September part 2 whenever that is. prolly the end of Sept

[maiden locust]

you will be able to upgrade your relic set

[spare acorn]

I'm raising my first character to 1415 from 1370, got 0 gold now and zero saved material. How long will it take me to save for the honing? A month? Two?

[maiden locust]

how many characters do you have

[wraith basin]

make sure you get the express event and normal event books

[spare acorn]

I have two ilevel 1370, and one 1325

[timber mauve]

Yeah, but running peacemaker 3 in a 3x3 is basically running 2x3 in terms of dps compared to other options.

[maiden locust]

how so?

[maiden locust]

the express books will get you close to 1400 atleast

[timber mauve]

Read the peacemaker engraving and what increases with level. Then compare that to lvl 1 and lvl 3 grudge.

[spare acorn]

I made a mistake not collecting the newbie rewards before I went ineligible

[maiden locust]

what?

[timber mauve]

Oh that sucks.

[spare acorn]

The newbie event disappears when you go over 1370

[silver rain]

wasnt mokoko challenge reward* suppose to send to universal storage if you didnt claim it? ~~unless you havent done it 💀 ~~

[timber mauve]

Mokoko challenge yeets itself if you hit 1370, even if you haven’t completed it.

[maiden locust]

did you get the express event reward?

[spare acorn]

Yeah, it's on a scrapper character i regret raising

[timber mauve]

Tbh, it’s likely going to be raw gold and leaps that hold you back.

[spare acorn]

Bound

[rose jewel]

and shards

[maiden locust]

the books arent bound

[spare acorn]

The engraving? Ah yes have those

[timber mauve]

Honing books

[spare acorn]

Just the leap stones and gold and the blue and red honing materials that i don't have, i réalisé I'm late to the party, so i just want an idea on how long I'll be in this phase?

[timber mauve]

Depending on how hard you go, prolly a month or two.

[maiden locust]

the honing books from the event will help allot

[spare acorn]

A month or two, i guess I'll just round it to 1 and half, thanks

[maiden locust]

did you already use the books tho?

[half carbon]

where do i get these apart from weekly dungeons?

[silver rain]

you dont

[white flume]

does clown bring the better accessories?

[maiden locust]

if you mean ancient, no thats with abrel hardmode

[silver rain]

next 'tier' accs is 1540 tho 1490 introduces us Bracelet

[white flume]

what gear changes does clown bring?

[white flume]

when is that coming

[silver rain]

set effect upgrade

[white flume]

so clown gives new set?

[silver rain]

Brel raid

[rose jewel]

not even god knows when, and no

[white flume]

new gear

[silver rain]

clown drops Trumpet to make your relic set effect lvl2

[white flume]

trumpet? xd

im considering upgrading to 5x3

[timber mauve]

A material

[white flume]

since if we get the accs later, its worth doing that now?

[rose jewel]

accesories has nothing to do with clown's trumpets

[timber mauve]

The next accessory upgrade is with hard Abrel as they said already.

[white flume]

yeah

so the only upgrade that can give me power now is accs

since ill get that rumpet anyway

[rose jewel]

and relic gear if you're not 1445+

[white flume]

im at 1490

[rose jewel]

i have so many questions right now

anyway, 5x3 is not needed for now, but prob will be a gatekeep for clown pugs

[white flume]

yea

[maiden ridge]

Is glavier worth pushing to 1430? Does pinnacle drop off late game,

[rose jewel]

your best way to improve for now is 5x3, higher quality accesories and tripods

[heavy jolt]

anyone else cant connect to server (NAE)? it seems like other people are on the game and my internet is obviously okay

[maiden locust]

glavier is really good late game

[rose jewel]

ask in region chat

glaivier is something you need to invest for her to truly shine, she's in the midle of the pack, not bad but prob not as good as the broken classes

[heavy jolt]

only one person responded and they got in so i was wondering if anyone here knew of any new bugs/broken things?

[rose jewel]

you're the only one who's asked here, for now

[maiden ridge]

Right now, I have sorc / shadowhunter / wardancer and thinking of pushing glavier because summoner isnt coming out soon

[heavy jolt]

pinnacle is quite average, but with the upcoming buff she might be much better

[heavy jolt]

damn so just me atm, thanks

[rose jewel]

6.6% for red skills is not some godly buff, but she will be better ofc

[maiden ridge]

Thank you! Is wardancer esoteric viable late game? People keep bashing my wardancer for not being first intention

[rose jewel]

every single class in the game is viable everywhere

i am esoteric myself, and i have no problems with that

[maiden ridge]

I chose esoteric wardancer because of team synergy and I like swiftness

[rose jewel]

i do decent dmg and i still lack gems and tripods

[hasty moss]

is there a way to turn this button off

[rose jewel]

FI is the more "realist" class due to not being locked out with skill animations as much as eso, and you have a mobility skill, it got buffed really good, however

[maiden ridge]

She is fun! Should I wait for end of September to push alts to 1415 for global honing buff? Or is it okay to push now

[rose jewel]

FI still has the 6s burst window to do high dmg, same as esoteric, the numbers are a bit better for "real fights" but its still the same, you need to be good to use her properly

if you have fun with esoteric, keep playing esoteric, that's what i did

[heavy jolt]

the global honing buff is ongoing so it makes no difference

[maiden ridge]

Okay, I am happy with ignoring the crowd about FI and going with esoteric

[rose jewel]

she means the one we're lacking, 1370>1415

[maiden ridge]

She

Yes, my friend told me you save gold for the next honing buff

[rose jewel]

welcome to the eso gang

[silver rain]

there's no news on 1340base honing buff but its not like 1302 one is announced before hand

[heavy jolt]

are we supposed to get a 1370-1415 honing buff in september? i haven't heard of that at all

[maiden ridge]

I want to do 6 vykas for fun

[narrow axle]

For ice turtle, if your awakening does weak point dmg, is it better to hold for after armour break or use it to break armour

[rose jewel]

we have literally no idea when is the hone buff coming tho

[warm lance]

Hi, if I delete an alter that I didn't like, how long does it take for the name I have with that alter to become available?

[rose jewel]

lv10 alt is instant, lv11+ is 60days

[maiden ridge]

I thought they announced it for scouter and clown another honing buff

[warm lance]

ok ty

[rose jewel]

they didnt, from what i've read on the roadmap

[heavy jolt]

not that i've read

[maiden ridge]

Should we save fused leapstones for brellshazar honing rates or use it to save gold now?

[rose jewel]

about your question, if you have already 5 alts at 1370, i would push one to 1415 or 30, more weekly gold and more fun from legions

[astral zealot]

are powerpasses fixed yet?

[rose jewel]

#announcements #official-updates

[maiden ridge]

I have 5 accounts for vykas but have my 6 account parked at 1389 :(

[astral zealot]

ty

[maiden ridge]

My friends told me to wait for september to save gold for honing buff

[silver rain]

speculation, RU got it with a month before clown (tho they got both 1302&1340) JP got 1302 Around Valtan, 1340 with clown. so its possible we might get one with clown

[rose jewel]

5 chars at 1430, holy

[dusk veldt]

i'd just hone it if you find it fun

really not worth waiting so long for something that will probably not even come in september...

[maiden ridge]

I have 1487 sorc , 1445 bard and the rest are 1430 except for glavier

I will hone and thank you

I find vykas normals fun because you can ts almost every mech

[rose jewel]

wish i had that much time to play :c

[maiden locust]

Hey does anyone know where to report people who try to scam on busses? This dude just DC'd halfway through abyss instead of paying

[timber mauve]

If it’s not from this discord, then no.

[maiden ridge]

You can play! It is super fun

[rose jewel]

i can play, but not when im at working, like right at this very moment

[sinful solstice]

what legendary card selection packs worth atm? (from challenge abyssal)

[maiden ridge]

What roster characters do you have? How much would it cost to push 1430 to 1445?

[timber mauve]

All legendary select packs are the same.

[maiden locust]

Thanks, someone told me to report him on the discord and they didn't say what one. First time I've had it happen

[sinful solstice]

yes but how much do people bid on them?

[rose jewel]

did he dc on purpose tho, or did his net died

[dusk veldt]

varies a lot

[rose jewel]

me?

[timber mauve]

7-10k gold and 30k or so in KR.

[maiden ridge]

Net died probably, I had a HM Valtan dc

[sinful solstice]

oh i see

[maiden ridge]

Yes

[rose jewel]

uhh

WD 1470, Bard 1445/1415, Pally 1400, GL 1385, Glaiv 1385
would probably cost an arm and a leg (?

[maiden ridge]

Is it normal to pity 2-3 items when honing 19+?

[timber mauve]

Yeah

[rose jewel]

very

[maiden ridge]

I pitied 100% on shoulders and wanted to weep

Thats an awesome roster

[rose jewel]

it only gets worse with 3%

and then 2 and then 1

[crisp turtle]

i refuse to go 19+ after i pitied 4 pieces to 19

[dusk veldt]

dont the odds to pity not change that much

[maiden ridge]

You should try, you are close to 1490 for clown

[rose jewel]

around the same, but lowering from 5-10% to 3-6% is feelsbadman

[crisp turtle]

clown is 1475

[dusk veldt]

i'd say 5x3 is more important than 1490

[maiden ridge]

My friends advised for clown to tickle you, you would need to i level 1505

[rose jewel]

i cant even reach 75, i dont see myself being 1500+ lol

[dusk veldt]

true i got +20 weapon today at 45% artisan, am pretty happy with that luck

[zinc garden]

Guys quick question, how do i get my second power pass

[timber mauve]

Time for +21

[rose jewel]

+25 or nothing, glow gamers

[dusk veldt]

[timber mauve]

You get the second north Vern pass after you use the first one.

[crisp turtle]

yeah, if you wanna overgear by 20ivls it will make it easier. is def not a requirement tho

[rose jewel]

which you cant btw right now

[maiden ridge]

They told me once I hone everything to 21 i can stop...

Whats 21 i level? 1505?

[rose jewel]

21>22 is around triple the pity needed, so yes

[maiden ridge]

You dont hone past 21 because it does nothing lol

[rose jewel]

ofc you can luck it midway or 1tap, but if worse comes to happen..

[crisp turtle]

wdym it does nothing?

[zinc garden]

Nice, and one more thing.... how's the striker class, because a lot of people have been telling me there are better alternatives. But tbh I like how he looks and feels

[rose jewel]

if you like it, play it

[crisp turtle]

all classes are good. play what you enjoy

[maiden ridge]

Ill be honest, i think 1490 is doable by end of september but not 1500+

[timber mauve]

Ask in the striker channel. #navigation

I only play female classes so…

[dusk veldt]

depends where you are at rn

[rose jewel]

some classes may need more investment for them to really shine, but once you're there, man does it feels good, as a wardancer main

[dusk veldt]

what makes wardancer good at higher ilvl apart from relic tier set?

[rose jewel]

tripods and gems

[maiden ridge]

I am at 1487 and a piece of me dies with every hone

[dusk veldt]

[rose jewel]

literally you need all the pieces of exodia together for her to boom

[crisp turtle]

its mostly the relic set tho, complete gamechanger getting 1445

[rose jewel]

yep, the CD reduction is extremely huge

[dusk veldt]

what does wd go?

[maiden ridge]

I need 1 more hone but the pity gives me PTSD and I think we spend 14k gold on pity for level 20 armour?

[rose jewel]

dear lord i forgot the set name

[crisp turtle]

eso goes 6pc dom, fi goes 4pc dom and either 2 entropy or nightmare

[rose jewel]

oh yeah dominion

[dusk veldt]

[amber folio]

do you play wd?

[maiden ridge]

How much gold is pity for level 21 weapon? 30k gold?

[dusk veldt]

raw gold or mats also?

[maiden ridge]

Raw gold

[rose jewel]

at least you're clown ready and almost brel ready

[crisp turtle]

liek 40k i think 30k

[white slate]

this bit here used to work. now auto dismantle just destroys all accessories. anyone know wtf is going on? this happened during the previous major update

[heavy jolt]

He is literally top tier if you care about tiers, but requires quite a bit of investment and will deal very subpar damage until then

[maiden ridge]

For the weapon to pity to 21? 40k gold jesus christ

[crisp turtle]

no i was wrong, its 30k

[dusk veldt]

do you have 5x3?

[maiden ridge]

That isnt including your juice

[zinc garden]

Alright, thanks for the insight ^^

[maiden ridge]

I have 4 engravings , level 3-4 tripodd and level 7 gems

[dusk veldt]

go for 5x3 first imo

[maiden ridge]

Budget grudge sorc lol

I cant afford it ;(

[dusk veldt]

well then don't hone weapon 😄

[rose jewel]

because you're honing

[crisp turtle]

but... the glow

[maiden ridge]

Grudge books +12

[timber mauve]

Yes, but not really.

[amber folio]

[rose jewel]

tldr alt?

[maiden ridge]

Miracle if i could buy grudge books

[dusk veldt]

getting a 5th engraving gives around 15% more dmg
honing weapon to 21 from 20 is what like 4-5%?

[rose jewel]

you cant because you're honing

[maiden ridge]

Thats 120k gold?

[dusk veldt]

getting 5x3 is more worth your money and resources imo

[crisp turtle]

doesnt have to be grudge books tho

[rose jewel]

if you stop honing for a month, you can afford them

[wraith basin]

weapon after 20 is a small small increase

[crisp turtle]

big increase in glow tho

[maiden ridge]

Do we need 5 engravings for clown?

[silver rain]

Recommended

[rose jewel]

we dont need

[timber mauve]

For dps, prolly not but to get into pugs… prolly.

[maiden ridge]

Cant we go with 4 because of grudge and tripods

[heavy jolt]

with the roster you've posted above, you're literally ahead of 99% (making this up but it's high) of the playerbase, you can probably make upwards of 50k a week if you just dont hone and dont buy chests, can probably finish 20 grudge books in 2 weeks

[dusk veldt]

grudge is standard

[rose jewel]

pugs are probably gonna gate people without grudge, even if you're 5x3

[maiden ridge]

I dont think I make much... you are very kind though

[dusk veldt]

you probably just spend a lot too 😛

[rose jewel]

160+ roster lv, grudge gamer, lv5 tripods, lv8 gems, phd on harvard

[crisp turtle]

if you've got a static that doesnt mind, 4x3 is enough, when you learn the raid.
whilst you're learning, 4x3 is gonna struggle for damage.
and no pug is gonna take anyone that isn't 5x3

[maiden ridge]

I have 5 clown rotations but i think our group is lacking dps for clown lol

[silver rain]

Pugs lobby '1470+ DPS' for valtan but they are 1445

[heavy jolt]

LOL no i'm not being kind, i'm calculating based on that roster you posted. each character is literally pulling in 10k raw gold from vykas, valtan, argos. and you have 6 characters

[rose jewel]

5 of those chars = 5 books, even more, with nowadays prices

1 month = full 20 leg grudge books

and you have a lot of spare gold

[maiden ridge]

I dont see the gold.. 6 argos P3, HM valtan 2x , HM vykas, normal mode vykas 4x, normal mode valtan 4x and HM oreha

I make about 20k at best

[rose jewel]

if you buy all the boxes, yes, if you dont, you'll be surprised

[heavy jolt]

dont buy chests

[crisp turtle]

stop buying boxes

[maiden ridge]

You have to open the last box right?

[crisp turtle]

no

[rose jewel]

you dont "have" to

mats are good and all, but sometimes raw gold is more needed

[heavy jolt]

i have less of a roster than you and i finished grudge in two weeks when they were 9k each. i skipped ALL chests for two weeks, did not touch honing at all and was able to finish it from the raw gold + random drops

[maiden ridge]

I will take your advice then

Thank you, you all are so kind and nice

[heavy jolt]

with the activities you posted that is literally over 50k LOL

[maiden ridge]

I get scolded by friends to open and when to hone to save

I dont know how im managing my gold

[rose jewel]

they are not your friends

[dusk veldt]

The stronger my roster gets the more gold i get --> the more gold i spend

[heavy jolt]

oh also @rose jewel since i see you on this channel a lot, if anyone in the future does ask about not being able to connect to server, tell them to try verifying their game files on steam, that did it for me just now

[maiden ridge]

If i dont open any boxes i will be able to buy stuff and not hone

[rose jewel]

the classic, got it

[crisp turtle]

@maiden ridge

[maiden ridge]

Oh wow so no opening boxes

Can I hone? Stop honing to buy grudge books

[rose jewel]

told you, you'll be surprised

[maiden ridge]

Will grudge books drop in prices

[rose jewel]

they already did, dont expect them to get lower

[maiden ridge]

Thank you so much! Do you play NA West

[crisp turtle]

on EUC they're rising, for first time since tower release

[rose jewel]

i personally do, they're around 7k

or at least they were 2 days ago

[maiden ridge]

They cost 6.5k on Valtan NA west auction

[dusk veldt]

All NAW servers share same auction house

[silver rain]

It's 13k on euc

[maiden ridge]

Jesus christ 13k wtf

[crisp turtle]

were 9k last week

[maiden ridge]

13kx20

[rose jewel]

6.5

[maiden ridge]

I heard a strange rumor that they were considering merging all of NA east and NA west together

[rose jewel]

ahhhhhhh, i wanna get home, get my raids done and buy, like, asap

[maiden ridge]

I dont think they will because of how awful the ping will be

[crisp turtle]

the only talk of merges i've seen, are server merges within regions. not cross region merges

[rose jewel]

they are gonna be merging EUW servers, but regions, nah

[maiden ridge]

Oooh it would be awful if they did because of lag. Thanks for your help, it is time to snooze for me in Sydney :) have a great day/night everyone

[rose jewel]

same

[earnest sandal]

anyone has the gif or vid of the gunlancer getting bonked by clown and just showing emote

[heavy jolt]

wish you would have told me if it was the classic 😭

[rose jewel]

i mean, sometimes its just your net derping, you didnt tell me specifics :c

[silver rain]

There's one from atk but I don't think he did the emote

[livid acorn]

Bought 200 oreha material from AH, gold was taken but nothing has been delivered to mail for 5 mins. Anyone have an idea how to get it?

[heavy jolt]

yeah you're right, i didn't know what information to give you though

[silver rain]

Clear your inbox, delete mails. won't be getting new mails if your inbox is full

[wary flicker]

sometimes you bid for stuff and its only like 2-3 on the market at that price and your bid looks like it goes through but you likely clicked too fast and didnt realize it didnt take your gold or send you anything

[livid acorn]

I did try that and nothing showed

[livid acorn]

Theres 300k available at the price I paid

[maiden locust]

what skill is the counter on gunslinger?

[wary flicker]

doesnt matter if it shows 300k someone could have put up 1-100 at 1g cheaper and you trying to buy 300 of them would cause the bid/buyout to fail

[strange pike]

how do i change which characters this designates

[wary flicker]

under the cog icon - bottom right, then the lower window

[pseudo atlas]

press esc and hit the button that says "designate"

[strange pike]

ah ic ty

can i change those any time?

[livid acorn]

Theres none selling for anything other than 9g. Theres 392k available. My order was for 9g. 1800g was removed from my stash.
Ive tried small purchases of just 1 oreha each and those dont show either

[wary flicker]

yes though if you have 6 already designated you'll have to wait til week after i believe

[cedar cloud]

how come when i save the preset into the customize file it doesnt show when i make a character?

[pseudo atlas]

you can change designations at any time, you can't change checkmarks after the character earns gold though

[strange pike]

okay thanks

[silver rain]

Try switching to other char and back

[livid acorn]

Did and nothing :/

Shuting down and restarting , hopefully that works

[maiden locust]

what skill is the counter on gunslinger? it doesnt show on the skills

[pseudo atlas]

peacekeeper counters on first hit, dunno if there's another

last request on shotgun but good luck with that

[hushed spruce]

anyone having issues starting their game after update last night?

[livid acorn]

Restarting didnt resolve it. Seems there’s something more wrong with the AH

[silver rain]

Could you screenshot your mail inbox?

[humble relic]

need absloute help rn

[thorny loom]

Hi anyone here have missing silver?

[hushed spruce]

i feel u my game,. doesnt . start

[humble relic]

[tight tartan]

Where do I get the last ark

[humble relic]

LOL pain

[tight tartan]

[livid acorn]

[fallen jacinth]

The new voyage quest doesnt appear for me anyone else habe experience with this problem?

[humble relic]

[rose jewel]

oh sorry, i forgot to return the 7th ark, let me return it to gold river

[tight tartan]

Oh so after shandi tells me to chill I’m just finished with the main questline?

[silver rain]

#lost-ark-help message do that, or restart steam, or pc, or router, or verify files

[hushed spruce]

yea not having anti cheat issues it does the splash screen then just poofs

but i guess i can restart again 🤷‍♂️

[rose jewel]

have you verified files already

[hushed spruce]

reckon im about 2

[silver rain]

https://lost-ark.maxroll.gg/resources/guild-system pretty much cover basic stuff

[livid acorn]

This is the first page. last delivery was at 14:22 from legion raid

[silver rain]

those opened mails are taking up space just delete like 1-2 pages and see if the thing delivers

[maiden locust]

there's the link

[fringe bough]

argos groups titled "p3" are groups that intend on doing all three parts right?

[rose jewel]

yep

[zinc garden]

So i just tried using a powerpass and this happened...

Tf does that mean ?

[rose jewel]

we told you already, #announcements #official-updates

[burnt cave]

yo quick question, whats the best engravings for gunlancer, I can get one to lvl3, just wondering what the best would be

[rose jewel]

best best is grudge, non conditional multiplicative 20%

but i have no idea what else you're using

[burnt cave]

okay thats good its already at lvl 2

[rose jewel]

never use grudge if its not lv3

[burnt cave]

oh nah I was using some other sht I took grudge off bc of that a while back but I can finally get it to lvl3

wanted to check before I wasted the pouches tho, I need better rocks

[rose jewel]

besides grudge, if its a bluelancer, barricade

[maiden locust]

what engravings are you using now?

[burnt cave]

literally i was only using combat readiness, and I put a different one on I think it was either fortitude or contender since I had those but I eventually wanted to switch to grudge.

[rose jewel]

those 2 arent even on the good engravings i think, they wont do much, if anything, for you

[burnt cave]

well yeah which is why I wanted to switch lmao

[rose jewel]

your first one should be barricade, for a non negative conditional

combat readiness at lv1 is more than enough

[burnt cave]

I was just more focused on getting gear barely paid attention to engravings until recently

[rose jewel]

you're 1370+ i assume?

[burnt cave]

yeah

just got there today 1370

[rose jewel]

k good, for a 3rd (4th) engrave you can go for cursed doll

[burnt cave]

okay alright sounds good thx

[rose jewel]

for more specifics and actually good advice, try asking at #gunlancer

[unique hound]

For RE deathblade 5x3. Do i go RE, Grudge, Ambush, Supercharge, and Adrenaline. Or do I go Grudge, Curse doll, Ambush, Supercharge, Adren 2, RE 1?

[rose jewel]

same as above, probably ask in class channel

pins could have the answer

[fathom vault]

Need to logout of the character if you get an inbox full message then log back into them to get the mail to refresh

[maiden locust]

what stats do you use on gunslinger is it swift crit?

[balmy tendon]

Is the caspiel card farmable off of the field boss or do you only just get one card only per character.

[timber mauve]

Crit swift then crit spec/swift depending on relic set.

[timber mauve]

I’d suggest around 1.2-1.5k crit.

[fresh shard]

are the lover/youth skin sets dyeable?

[split nova]

FI Wardancer Vs EO Soulfist

[fresh shard]

i see only the midsummer one says "you can talk to skinsmiths to dye the skins"

[hybrid inlet]

it's farmable, but the droprate is pretty after the guaranteed one

[cedar cloud]

how come when i save the preset into the customize file it doesnt show when i make a character?

[limber jolt]

does nightmare set proc magick amplification - is that why reflux sorc is using that tripod?

[echo owl]

the set has nothing to do with that tripod

that tripod in particular, the first dmg bonus of the tripod is always applied so it works with reflux

the additional 20% is from entering z state which reflux doesnt have

[limber jolt]

ah ok tnx

[fossil linden]

Do you guys think if I main switch to a 1385 character being f2p is it possible to reach 1475 before clown?

[maiden locust]

I don’t see it happening. The shards alone is gonna be immense

[fossil linden]

I c

What is the best main switch spot you guys think is?

Maybe 1490?

[lethal quail]

I'm getting "couldn't connect to server", and there's no servers in the list at all, EUW

[long thorn]

Do you guys think legendary raid captain books are worth getting over grudge books if I have 4-5 classes on my roster that can run it? It's cheap enough that I could buy it now, but leg grudge will take me several months probably

[tame siren]

what are these for

[brittle thunder]

hello guys, there's any guide about t3 eq? what is worth something? What egraving/bonuses etc? or i must just check all in the markeet?

[mystic crane]

T2 honing, needed in addition to crystals, shards, and currency

[tardy gale]

can anyone help me on rethramis with guardian raid achates?

[nocturne trout]

quick question, if you got full relic set do you still take the bonus chest on vykas and valtan g1 and g2?

[thin token]

only last gate

[nocturne trout]

alright ty

[maiden locust]

im so excited to get my 7th day with no t3 gloves dropped from the chaos dungeon 🙂

[tame siren]

like to increase honing success rate?

[mystic crane]

No, as a required ingredient

T3 will have 2 kinds of those

[crisp turtle]

you dont need them anymore with the honing changes

[tame siren]

so i got them for no reason

[limpid obsidian]

Is Throw Bait even worth using? Double the energy cost for +25% Rare Material Acquisition Rate seems kinda bad.

[pliant locust]

so i just did my first ever knowledge transfer, i did it from my gunslinger (first and highest lvl character) as soon as i finished vern, and i did it on my arcana, but im very lost on what to do. in terms of the lvl 302 gear i got it but in terms of continuing endgame stuff, i am very lost so can someone help me

[upbeat cliff]

what happens if u reach max pages in mail

can u get more mails or are they just lost

[silver rain]

technically you wont be getting new mails but they should start coming in once you empty the inbox

[solid nest]

hey qq is anyone having some sort of in game burn in? not sure if this has been asked before, also when I click P to see my character or M on the world map in the ocean it's all blinking lol I have an AMD gpu if it helps

[upbeat cliff]

oh i see, so i wont lose anything if i put up alot of items on the market and go offline

[silver rain]

Do dallies like chaos dungeon, guardian raids. weeklies abyssal,

[silver rain]

supposedly yea. to be safe i'd clear like the last 5 pages before going offline

[crisp turtle]

pretty much, they used to be needed for honing in T2, as a necessary material like leapstones etc, but with the honing buffs, you don't need them anymore

[hybrid inlet]

things have changed a bit (for the easier) since some recent buffs, but I'd start here: https://lost-ark.maxroll.gg/resources/road-to-rohendel
and read all the guides under the progression tab. it's a good starting point

[pliant locust]

ok thank you. and also thank you @silver rain too

[hot dock]

do you get gold from adventure pvp island if u dnt kill anyone

[echo owl]

you have to get enough participation points for any reward

it isnt much so just try to tag people and hopefully they die so you get points

[brave rapids]

How necessary is 5x3 for Kakul? I can either invest my next 2 months of gold into getting Legendary books + Relic accessories, or I can pretty much bump up my roster a bunch to earn more gold per week.

[echo owl]

not mandatory

[dusk veldt]

getting into pugs without it will be hard tho

[brave rapids]

but "recommended"? as everyone keeps saying

What if I was 1490? 4x3 still though

[echo owl]

yes thats fine

[dusk veldt]

do you have a static or no?

[brave rapids]

No

Currently I'm 1475 4x3, but I can push 1490, I have all the mats.

[dusk veldt]

i think 5x3 is more important/more dmg

not sure tho tbh

[toxic herald]

question

this new honing buff is it to push to 1415 or to 13470

[brave rapids]

If your main is 1460, you get a small stronghold buff that effects 1370 > 1415 honing

[toxic herald]

ty

main is 1465

and i wasted materials to push my alt from 1370 to 1410 without the stronghold buff lmao

[dusk veldt]

4x3 is gonna be hard to get into pugs with
Especially on legendary gear with a spec class

[brave rapids]

Yeah.. I imagine that the 600+ stats from relic accessories + an extra engraving probably might do more damage than 15 extra ilevel. Ideally I'd like to get legendary grudge books, cuz I can use it over like 9 of my classes lol, but man is it expensive.

[dusk veldt]

yea its worth it tho

you'd be surprised how much gold your roster earns if you stop spending gold completely

[toxic herald]

someone tell me i didnt wastealot of gold and resources pushing my alt wi\thout stronghold buff 😦

[brave rapids]

Yes, my Gold-6 consists of my 1475 main + x5 1415s. I was debating pushing them to 1430 over the next month for like an extra 15k gold per week.

[blazing plover]

wait does bars not exist anymore with the new change or have i been unlucky with 2 straight weeks of zero bars?

[wraith basin]

no bars. only clicking

[brave rapids]

I think with the loss of bars though, they might have increased gold? I feel like I got double what I usually get

[slender stump]

Bars are still there? I just got thick purple bar

[crisp turtle]

you still get bars

[brave rapids]

Oh dope. Do you guys feel like you got more gold though?

How much do the large chests usually give?

[blazing plover]

i got 79 coins last week and this week. 3950 gold with 0 other bars

[brave rapids]

Oh. Nvm that's like how much I got too lol. For some reason I thought the norm was 2k

[crisp turtle]

i got 80 last week, 81 this week. 2 thin last week, no bars this week

[scenic geyser]

Heyooo all…trying out a new class main and looking to go either deathblade or shadowhunter. Any suggestions on which is the better one? Higher dps…fun…not too squishy…not too punishing?

[opal plume]

Guys hello, i have a question, if u kill argos P1 and don't get any rewards, then return to it and clear P2 or P3 whatever, do u get rewards for all phases?

[crisp turtle]

yes, if you leave the raid and dont claim rewards, you should be able to re-enter and get rewards from all 3

[slender stump]

Db has higher dps and more fun(imo) sh is not too punishing/not too squishy

[opal plume]

thank you

[scenic geyser]

They both rely on back attack?

[slender stump]

Sh doesn't

[scenic geyser]

Okay that may sway me to the shadowhunter then

[crisp turtle]

all classes balanced pretty well for dps. should all be preference

you should note that classes you make early on, in T1+T2 will feel very different to how they perform in endgame, with good stats/engravings/gear sets

[glad crag]

im gonna try to push 1414 to 1445. how much gold does it cost do you think?

[brave rapids]

They both run pretty decent DPS in PvE. Shadowhunter feels slightly less squishy than Deathblade just because they can heal when they transform (assuming you're going Demonic Impulse). They're both kind of punishing if you miss your abilities, since they're spec classes that consist of building up your identity gauge. I main Remaining Energy DB, and I feel like it's more fun that DI SH. DI SH feels a little too straightforward, it's a "piano class" or a key-spam class. You hit your identity gauge and then just spam all your Demon abilities off cooldown. No rotation needed.

[scenic geyser]

@crisp turtle understood.

[slender stump]

Gigachad chose the right class engraving for db @brave rapids

[lunar harbor]

Starting to gear up for 1415 and was wondering for engravings whats the move for buying books vs getting them through the ability stone and accessories? I'd assume its just look for whatever way is cheapest ya? Like since grudge books are expensive AF get another leg engraving through books and then go for grudge with stone + accessories?

[scenic geyser]

@brave rapids okay so SH is like a little less mechanic wise and DB has more or requires more focus and less let me spam all my skills

While SH sounds more simple and crazy the more involved a DB may be seems a little more fun or challenging I guess. I don’t want a too easy class because then it may get boring sort of or so

[crisp turtle]

is this a main or an alt?
if its your main you should really consider getting your legendary class engraving books, will make finding accessories a lot easier

will depend on what you're trying to get to, if its just 4x3, 5x3 or something inbetween.
decided your engravings, find a legendary book. either your class, or one that has synergy with alts.
then when you have your books, cutting a stone is next. then getting accessories to fill out and complete

[slender stump]

I went with db because of the same reason, sh is a bit too easy/boring imo

[crisp turtle]

RE DB is kinda middle ground then, its easier than surge, but less mindless than SH DI

[brave rapids]

There's like NOTHING mechanical in terms of DI SH. It's a Hit Master class that spams all it's keys 👌 RE DB is more fun, it's got a proper rotation and it's pretty fluid, along with it's Surge Blade which feels really good to slap down. I would say RE-DB feels "more satisfying" to play.

[lunar harbor]

For my main looking to get 4x3 have a couple alts tho all my char are 1370 but bard thats at 1400 currently have Glaive, DB, Arti, SH, Bard, and Scrapper with arti and glaive being what I play the most

[brave rapids]

Yes, definitely agree. RE DB is quite simple when you know what you're doing. Surge requires a bit more attention to detail in terms of your Surge buff/stacks. And on the opposite end of the spectrum, DI-SH just runs up, gets demon form, and hits A+S for big damage, and then spams QWER until A+S is back up lol @scenic geyser

[tawdry canopy]

Do I lose access to the manual stronghold gatherables when I use the auto feature?

[crisp turtle]

yeah, they dont exist anymore

[tawdry canopy]

ohh ok

[scenic geyser]

Okay so I think I’m going to go with DB ….And possibly RE. Seems like that’s a good first step into the DB class and then maybe surge build later on. Shadowhunter sounds fun but DB sounds a little more rewarding in the end and fun.

[brave rapids]

Shadowhunters make good alts though, for any classes you wanna make in the future. They're cheap, they only need 2 gems lol 👌

[crisp turtle]

if its your main, i'd genuinly consider trying to gear straight to 5x3. ik its daunting, and costs a lot. but it will save you having to regear it again at a later date. idk what server, but just pheon costs for buying accessories twice is a lot.

but, if you just wanna go 4x3, you're gonna be able to get it fairly cheap with relics, and you probably dont need legendary books for it

[brave rapids]

They're also giga braindead easy to play, so that's always a plus in my books when making an alt.

[lunar harbor]

bet got it ty! ill also look into 5x3 tho like I said kinda hopping between arti and glaive so not sure which one I'd 5x3 tho maybe once I run a legion raid with both itll be easier to decide lol

[crisp turtle]

just a note for DB. it doesn't really "feel" like an assasin. you use a lot of charge skills, it doesn't feel clunky, but its just something you should know before jumping in

[scenic geyser]

@crisp turtle okay thanks for that extra tip and thank you @brave rapids for your advice as well

[crisp turtle]

although, dark axel may be the most enjoyable skill in the game to use

and that feels proper assasin-y

[brave rapids]

Neither assassins "feels like an assassin" in the traditional sense to me. Although I guess Demonic Form is the closest we'll get to that feel for now. I lied, Demonic Form is just what a Berserker should have been. I have high hopes for Reaper being the first true assassin lol

I've only seen gameplay of it, and it definitely looks like it at least.

[slender stump]

She has invis and a clone can't really get more assassin-like than that

[crisp turtle]

yeah, i never played SH for that reason, i thought DB looked assasin-y. was kinda sad when i played it that it felt more like a warrior class. feels like big solid hits rather than quick and fast, but shes still mobile

[sleek vale]

when is it generally worth it to refacet a gem? does it make it untradeable after you refacet?

[brave rapids]

Definitely. DI-SH feels like a warrior just "going Frenzy mode" or something, and RE-DB is just Zerker Tech, different skin.

[slender stump]

You facet it to 1 of the useful skills, sell it and buy the one you need

[scenic geyser]

I watched a vid on reaper and that is def the assassin like class out of the 3 from what I see. I don’t like that’s it’s too squishy but it’s def cool looking with the clone and all

[slender stump]

So hyped for reaper in 2025

[crisp turtle]

only squishy if you get hit XD

[scenic geyser]

Lol

Quick question. My items say bound to roster. So if I make an alt do they automatically have it in their inventory or do I need to send it or put it in a chest or something?

[crisp turtle]

you have a roster storage

that all your roster can access

[brave rapids]

If you're new, your roster storage starts out pretty small, but you unlock the entire first page eventually by levelling up your stronghold and doing Roster Storage Research.

[scenic geyser]

Ah okay thanks for the info. I’m just starting out in LA so still learning things. Coming from FF14 it’s totally different but in a good way

[sleek vale]

can you keep refaceting it?

is it just 90k per tap or is there some kind of other restriction

[brave rapids]

You can refacet a gem as many times as you want, as long as you have the silver to afford it.

[crisp turtle]

can keep going til you run out of silver

[sleek vale]

is there a general rule of thumb as to how many times before it becomes diminishing returns lol

[crisp turtle]

nope

[sleek vale]

is there a minimum gem lv before one should do it?

[crisp turtle]

oh you, mean for silver-gold ratio?

[glossy comet]

what are the best comfort engravings for a dps?

[sleek vale]

yeah, or just general rules to follow when refaceting

[charred thorn]

for the 1490 gear, are the destr stones and guardian stones 5:1 tradeable from or current t3 ones?

[crisp turtle]

depends on the class

[glossy comet]

comfort as in not dps increasing but survivability

kinda like a learning a raid and not dying immediately engraving

[deep sorrel]

spirit absorption, heavy armor

[crisp turtle]

i forge up to the level im looking for 5 for alts, 7 for main. then re-roll til i get what i need. if you reforge for the wrong type, like cd instead of damage. look at marketplace, might be able to sell and buy the one you need for similar price

[glossy comet]

that is what I was thinking lol

[crisp turtle]

800+900 respectively

[sleek vale]

if I'm at lv 5 gems for my main, it's probably wise to reforge a lv 7 gem until it's a good one, sell it, and then buy lv 6 gems right?

[brave rapids]

I typically refacet gems using silver up to level 6. After that, I just sell level 7 gems and then buy the correct one that I need. I usually do it at like a <1k gold loss.

[crisp turtle]

i mean, you could. it depends how much silver you have tbh. if you can afford the silver cost to reforge. if its your first lvl 7, it means you've basically got 11 chances of getting an upgrade

[brave rapids]

I'd rather just spend the 1k gold getting the gem I need rather than gamble ~1m silver

[sleek vale]

oh is it cheaper to refacet gems at a lower level?

[brave rapids]

Yes

[crisp turtle]

p3 gives you an extra 1k. so if the bus costs more than than that you'll lose out on raw gold. but you get more in mats, and u get the gamble on accessories and auction

[sleek vale]

I see, that is good to know. thanks all

[crisp turtle]

just a note for re-faceting. you can only facet cd into cd, and damage into damage

took me a stupid amount of silver before my dumbass realised this

[brave rapids]

I think level 9 or 10 gems reroll at 300k silver per roll. So eventually it just becomes to costly to reroll them normally. People typically sell their trash gems at slightly under regular price and then just buy their needed gem skill at a small gold loss

The trash gems eventually get bought out by people are willing to gamble their silver, in hopes of a gold profit

[devout heath]

My friend sometimes glitches and can’t see valtan and the red laser beam. Does anyone else have this problem or know why it happens?

[sleek vale]

ok gotcha, thank you for the help guys!

[hushed sleet]

do we have a honing buffs for 1370 to 1415?

I mean do other regions have it?

[stray helm]

Um I have no idea where to ask this but ig this is probably my best bet. Would I be able to sell commissions for peoples characters on lost ark for gold or would that go against some rules? I don't want to get ban or something because i would just be drawing peoples characters for gold.

[last acorn]

Is there a wayy to open my repair bench fast?

[ember pewter]

We do not have the 1370 to 1415 global honing buff) active as of yet. I would assume that they will come with brel. But we do have the 1370-1415 stronghold buff but that requires you to have a 1460 first to obtain the research

[glad basin]

any1 notice the game freezing since the update? has happened to me twice today

where screen just freezes mid combat

[ember pewter]

Commission such as drawing or art work? If so, in exchange for gold, I think this would go against the TOS as you are exchanging an out of game good/service for something in game. If found you could have action taken against your account.

[stray helm]

i see

ty for clearing that up i wasnt sure

[fossil remnant]

what does 1+2 and 1-2 mean in party search? looking at Oreha's Well [Hard] if that helps

[silver rain]

prolly means both dungeons

[fossil remnant]

I think you're right. thanks

[deep sorrel]

i think generally no, but you can always ask

[silver rain]

guess you'll have to live with 1/20

[crisp turtle]

or buy the rest 😄

[deep sorrel]

did you somehow have the epic books read already

[crisp turtle]

time to mainswap

[sleek vale]

time to make an artillerist and buy 19

[humble basin]

[sleek vale]

it's ok I just spent 2m silver to refacet a lv7 gem out of frustration lol

when I could've just sold the original one for the same price as this one

[crisp turtle]

i spent over 100k on 10 grudge books, before realising my main can't even use em

[sleek vale]

no time like the present. make one lol

[crisp turtle]

if thats the worse mistake you make whilst playing, you're doing fine

it sucks, i get it, but in the long term, it won't affect you much

[deep sorrel]

did you like have an alt that you quit

[crisp turtle]

i am kinda confused as to why you'd already learnt all the rare books for arty if you don't play it

[pine oasis]

why is there a green arrow on material gear gloves?

[deep sorrel]

because the level is higher than your current one

[crisp turtle]

its got a tripod you have. just a better version

[deep sorrel]

i.e. your nimble movement tripod

[crisp turtle]

your shoulders have nimble movement 1, the gloves have nimble 2

[pine oasis]

ohh

[crisp turtle]

you're up to t3 already? nice. last time i saw you in chat i think you were still t1, all going well?

[pine oasis]

yeah 😄

just a bit poor on gold side for enhancing/honing

is this a good stone?

[crisp turtle]

two useful dps engravings, idk if SH uses KBW though

[heavy jolt]

Yeah this is a decent useable stone but my guess is that it's like <100gold at this point

[crisp turtle]

i think grudge/kbw grudge/cd and awake/expert are the only expensive legendary stones at this point

always worth checking tho, and if its only 30g, then its still 30g

[pine oasis]

does the cursed doll lvl 3 have no reduced healing? I dont see a negative sign in front of 25%

[deep sorrel]

amazon translations

[crisp turtle]

it does, just another classic translation error

[pine oasis]

[cyan rock]

Anyone know whats that +0 i got in the various atk power effects ?

[silver rain]

Do they not know/inform about these kind of mistype/localizatio or something? It has been like that for moths

[cyan rock]

most ppl got that

[pine oasis]

"this is so good! +16 att and +25% healing! its just perfect"

[crisp turtle]

CD/Mass Increase both give +atk power

[pine oasis]

seems like there are a 9 pages of stone like that one

[crisp turtle]

check recent prices, gives you a good idea of what it sells for

[cyan rock]

i dont understand what u mean

[crisp turtle]

check their engravings, both cursed doll and mass increase don't give increased damage, isntead they give increased atk power. which is probably what you're looking at there

[simple locust]

Hi, does anyone know whats going on with the powerpass?

[crisp turtle]

still currently disabled

[cyan rock]

ah they do have cursed doll

i dont have that

[simple locust]

Thats sucks….

I thought i could knowledge transfer to punika

[crisp turtle]

that'll be why yours say +0. its just different way of damage, they get increased atk power, instead of flat damage from other engravings

[fiery zinc]

what do you do with upgrade materials from tier 1 that are bound to your character and you are on tier 2 now

[crisp turtle]

chuck em in the bin

[rain meadow]

vendor them

[spiral pulsar]

How rare is the sea bounty from alakkir

[deep sorrel]

i would say somewhere between rare and very rare

[pine oasis]

is there any way to know beforehand where shangra island will appear?

[deep sorrel]

there's the whirlpool 10 minutes before it opens, but it's impossible any earlier than that

[crisp turtle]

nvm, i misread

[pine oasis]

better go check now then

is it standard across all servers?

[deep sorrel]

nope

also you can try to share info via area chat if others are also looking for shangra

[near mango]

does anyone know what the relic set is called that drops meteors on top of you?

[pure oyster]

i just hit 1415. do i wait till i get relic gear to hone or do i hone my legendary gear to lvl 16

[deep sorrel]

you can't get relic gear until 1445 so you have to hone your legendary gear

[deep sorrel]

betrayal

[cursive elk]

In fact you even have to get to +17. Starting from 1415 you go up in 15 Itemlevels per Successful Honing though, instead of 5.

[pure oyster]

oh ok thank you

[icy skiff]

How come people just say in chat "WTT Lvl 7 Dmg Gem for Cooldown Gem" without specifying the skill on it?

[cursive elk]

I assume those people just want to get any Cooldown Gem so they can Reroll it into their Skill. [Aka 1 for 1 Trade DMG to CDR]

[icy skiff]

but it doesn't matter if it's cooldown or damage gem when rolling, doesn't it?

[cursive elk]

Rerolling can only give you the same type of Gem, CD rolls into CD, and DMG into DMG Gems.

[icy skiff]

ohhh interesting... thanks!

[crisp turtle]

took me a stupid amount of silver before i realised this

[cursive elk]

Personally im an advocate against Rerolling, because most Gems aside specific Classes [who usually rely on a single skill like Deathblade or Demon Skill Gems for Shadowhunter] are usually just a 1 for 1 Trade. Sell your current, buy the Skill you need. And all you pay are the 5% Tax. Silver is just too precious of a Ressource for honing to waste alot of it on Rerolling Gems.

[narrow hearth]

hey guys i used my vern powerpass and when i try to use it on a character it isnt available. whats the problem

[cursive elk]

Powerpasses are currently disabled most likely due to Bots abusing them to quickly gain Rapport NPC Gold. No new info on when they get enabled.

[narrow hearth]

oh that sucks

thanks

[peak wadi]

Hmm so I can either do a 100 quality legendary ring accessory or use a 30 quality relic accessory, it's better to use the relic right bc even ta 30 quality it gives lower stats?

[cursive elk]

Relic gives more Base Stats and 100 Quality Leggy is the same as 50 Quality Relic in Terms of Bonus stat amount. Depending on your Class its usually just better to go with the Relic Option aslong as the Engravings are ok. [Unless its Shadowhunter who really needs high Spec Amounts for Example]

[pine oasis]

whats the compass sign in front of gold?

[deep sorrel]

those are the rewards that change with every spawn of the adventure island

[mellow mauve]

^

[pine oasis]

and how do you get gold if it remains there as an expected reward?

[mellow mauve]

more mats generation which can be more gold generation is a sense or more mats to push with

[mellow mauve]

the adventure island rewards change everyday, so when lush reed reappear again in the rotation after today, the reward could be silver/sea coins/card packs/etc

[peak wadi]

yeah they are the same engraving level 3/3 but relic is 30 quality

but sounsd good thanks!

[cursive elk]

Then i would personally say go for the Relic due to the Stat Increase, more variables for Survival/HP/DMG

[pine oasis]

is there any island that gives guaranteed gold?

[cursive elk]

Unknown Island. But its only like 25g or so at best. The Mad Monkey Fight thing.

[mellow mauve]

^ as well as tooki island, but it also gives very small amount of gold

[pine oasis]

so which islands are worthwhile at t3 if any?

[cursive elk]

Depends on what you need. And in terms of what Content you like.

[pine oasis]

collectibles (except souls)/sp/gold

[deep sorrel]

anguished isle xd

[pine oasis]

isnt that stella one?

[mellow mauve]

yea

[pine oasis]

are the costumes from rapport points worth?

[deep sorrel]

only if there's a specific stronghold effect you want

or you want to dress your npcs up

[pine oasis]

oh its the npc dresses?

[cursive elk]

Those Skins for Rapport Points [Outside of Stronghold for 35k/70k Points] are personally by my opinion worse than the Border Guardian skins who cost like 400 per set. So no, its not worth to use those points there. Rather get Rapport Item Boxes and finish some Gold Giving NPC's.

[deep sorrel]

oh wait i misunderstood the question

yeah if it's the providence stone skins it's really just if you like how it looks or not

[atomic tide]

my abyssal dungeon bugged and the game counted as if i did it without me even entering it. should i send a support ticket for help?

[deep sorrel]

there's a chance you'll get a re-entry ticket in the mail, when it happened to me it took about a day to get it

[cursive elk]

Wait 24h Before you open a Ticket. The System might flag it and give you your entry back, if you don't get a Mail, then write a ticket.

[atomic tide]

ight thx

[rough whale]

for tier 2, do i only upgrade gear til lv. 15? or do i go up to lv 20

[deep sorrel]

yeah until 15

[peak wadi]

Is buying argos chest worth it for an alt

[cursive elk]

Yes. The Leapstones alone are worth the 500g. So if you plan to hone that Alt in the Future, definetly.
If you plan to have it sit at 1370/1400 and never hone again ever, then take the Gold instead.

[deep bay]

what's the cheapest method to 1475 from 1460 assuming I'm +18 across the board?

[fair mantle]

+19 everything

[deep bay]

thank you

[nimble gorge]

when I use sidereels, where does the sidrell get summoned?

at cursot location or where I am facing?

[mellow mauve]

where you are facing

[median olive]

how long does it take to complete all msq until north vern on a fresh steam acc?

[rain meadow]

~9 to 10

[tropic steppe]

Any of you math enjoyer got a list of when to use honing mats from 1302 to 1370 with express? A friend would like one

[quick frost]

Hey, question about a build. Swift flux.

Grudge3, Hitmaster3, Cursed Doll3, RaidCapt3, Adren2, Reflux1. About 15k in accessories. Good buy?

[tired sky]

idk if reflux1 is really the way to go ngl..
never seen that and you're mssing out on 8% of damage and additional 7% cooldown..

also a swift flux? you sure about that?

is that new meta or smth? o.o

[deep sorrel]

swift reflux is pretty common

haven't heard of reflux at level 1 though

[mellow mauve]

^

[deep sorrel]

i don't see a whole lot of info on running adrenaline 2/reflux 1 over just reflux 3 so idk
but really in general for things that are off-meta, you pretty much have to make the decision yourself

[rough pendant]

do i run lvl 5 gems on alts?

[mellow mauve]

yea

[median olive]

are there any rules regarding how many steam accounts we are allowed to own to play the game? or how many computers can be running the game on a same IP at the same time

[halcyon parrot]

hey guys anyone got a spreadsheat or something for pvp?

[inner wing]

#pvp-general pins

[ancient lark]

never heard something like that, if it's true a lot of internet cafe would be banned just because they have many PC running the same game

[median olive]

oh no me neither i was asking just to make sure. some games are really strict on allowing only one account per person but this doesnt seem to be the case lol

[carmine matrix]

is there like a market discord for lost ark?

[inner wing]

?

[mystic crane]

There’s a community-made site with APIs. Check #info-dump last posts. Not a discord though afaik

[carmine matrix]

ok thanks! i just wanted to sell an iteem but i didnt want to spam a discussion chat for it

[mystic crane]

Well, that site is not for looted items like accessories. Get to know which engravings are needed by which classes, and look at existing offers, to make good decisions

[snow wadi]

someone told me yesterday running/playing multiple LA Accounts to farm gold is against the ToS

[pseudo atlas]

you're only allowed one account by the tos, enforcement is another issue entirely

[vital vale]

I was doing a valtan raid and my game crashed will I not get my ticket back?

[slender stump]

If you don't get it within 48h, you are done for the week

[vital vale]

oo ok thanks

[cunning perch]

how long does it usually take to sell the yellow crystals in currency exchange?

[tropic steppe]

Depends on the price you put it compared to what other put it

But usually a couple minutes if its the same price as the lowest seller

[cunning perch]

I put it to the same as the others

[forest bramble]

Hello would like to know good class for PVE (don´t like pvp) with low and high invest.

[cunning perch]

its all prefernce on play style

I prefer ranged classes like sorc n shes stylish with alot of cool effects

but I recently played deadeye and gunslinger theyre both fun the main difference is Gunslinger uses pistole and rifle while deadeye uses pistole and shotgun

I have tried warrior mayhem build not my style to little hp and to slow

[forest bramble]

@cunning perch i prefer mages but idk how good they are

did you have a guide for it ?

[tropic steppe]

The maxroll guide is a good start
If you like mages Sorceress is probably my beat recommendation.
Ever sincr her release she's always been one of the strongest classes.

Though all classes are very viable and fun in their own way.

[forest bramble]

@tropic steppe thanks is that your main i mean sorc?

[tropic steppe]

No, but I do have one at 1445 ilvl

I play the ignition build, which is arguably the strongest and most mainstream

[forest bramble]

So going Ignition is the best way? or..

the other one?

[fierce hill]

anybody have a good checklist/spreadsheet for island souls/skill points/giant heart (collectables)?

[flat dagger]

Yes, it's in-game in the collection log.

Or codex if you want to go specifically for something.

[vast yacht]

Hi a friend of mine stopped playing a while ago and has some honing materials and gold left which he doesn't need anymore so he wants to give it to me. We're in the same region (EUC) but different servers, is it still possible to receive it from him though? The gold ammound is 30k is it to risky because of the possibility of getting banned?

[flat dagger]

No idea if it's against the rules, but you can list an item for 30k and he can buy it. You can't mail people on different servers though.

[vast yacht]

so the market is for all servers on EUC?

[flat dagger]

Just make sure to have identifying info about the item he'd buying.

Cross Server (Region wide)
Raids, Dungeons, Cube, Plat Fields, Auction house, Character name, Boss Rush, PVP arenas

Server Specific
Guilds, Friends (list), Islands, Open world, Strongholds (cross in KR), GvG, Life skills (professions), Unranked Arena Premades (queue as party, this is cross server in KR)

Nothing is Cross Region

[vast yacht]

Alright thank you!

[fierce hill]

thanks

[flat dagger]

Every collection item has a list of where you get them from and can be filtered by unobtained.

A few are a bit obscure but you can easily google them and find an answer.

[cunning perch]

Maxroll guide is the best start although I did have a guildmate build a set for me based off move preference and if your going for full burst DPS the Igniter would be your choice and if you want more mobility and constant dps then reflux build would be what you go for

[cosmic ivy]

Are the servers down?

[cunning perch]

for sorc ignition is the more popular build bc you see big numbers when you burst downside is less mobility and you have more casting spells which keep u in one spot

For sorc reflux u get mobility and less casting spells and dont see big numbers like ignition but to make up for it you get constant dmg so theyre kinda equal imo

[lone sequoia]

What's the fastest una's dailys for shards?

[cunning perch]

Chaos dungeon gives 1700 as well as one of the sailing gifts from the sea

[north mango]

just buy shard pouches and do leapstones ones

[cunning perch]

wait those are weeklys lol

[sick thunder]

if i kt to punika will it complete the previous regions ?

[lone sequoia]

How much does chaos dungeons give average?

[cunning perch]

720 from crook catcher and the rest are 650-550

[north mango]

just main quest line

[sick thunder]

will it unlock gems ?

[north mango]

huh

[cunning perch]

I think you have to do it one buy one, I tried to Kt my deadeye from t1 to t3 but I had to spend gold to do it one step at a time for a total of 7k gold

[cunning perch]

youll have to get those by yourself
