[flat dagger]

Can you exchange other things?

[earnest valve]

No

Like wtf is this even used for?

[flat dagger]

I'll check after my raid.

[cobalt edge]

Grenade chests :x

[leaden escarp]

are these garbage if i have relic armor?

[flat dagger]

Yes.

[leaden escarp]

no use at all? seems i can't even sell

[trail hawk]

dismantle?

[flat dagger]

They are literally trash, no use.

[leaden escarp]

can't dismantle

[earnest valve]

Yo what about my tender timber problem?

[flat dagger]

Relax, I am done now.

[leaden escarp]

actually i can sell to the potion merchant

1 silver for each lmao

[flat dagger]

What do you mean? @limpid obsidian

You can literally just go exchange that shit.

[earnest valve]

who is that trader? where is he located?

[flat dagger]

Exchange on the farm island, like I said.

[limpid obsidian]

Oh, nvm lol. I've just seen others saying that and thought it was correct since I couldn't find it either.

[flat dagger]

It's been in the game ever since I started playing, like 4 months ago.

[earnest valve]

Thanks Or chan

[limpid obsidian]

I just looked in the normal exchange vendor

[flat dagger]

Me: Checked all the NPCs as the first thing I did in the Stronghold once they unlocked.

[cobalt edge]

can't swap for anything useful though T_T

[flat dagger]

Yes you can.

[earnest valve]

wtf these stronghold mats are useless

[inner wing]

[flat dagger]

I must be playing a different game than you guys

[earnest valve]

The auto farm is basically xp for lazy people...

[limpid obsidian]

Meanwhile I'm too lazy to even check if I own a recipe before buying it from a vendor

[limpid obsidian]

Huh? You can craft a bunch of useful bound items for them.

[humble junco]

does it matter if i solo chaos or with party?

[earnest valve]

Partying takes longer time, bc the mobs scale

[humble junco]

rewards?

[earnest valve]

same rewards

[humble junco]

reallly?

[flat dagger]

Yes.

[earnest valve]

Yes

[humble junco]

DAMN i will never do solo chaos on bard EVER again

worst thing ever bro

[flat dagger]

Solo Bard is the most chill thing...

[earnest valve]

Yeah solo chaos bard are heavy investors, they usually have 2 builds

[humble junco]

ye ye most chill thing

bro you kidding me? its like playing elder ring in lost ark

[flat dagger]

If you don't have a DPS build, make one and see the difference.

[earnest valve]

make a shadow hunter

[humble junco]

its an alt i cant build it now

[flat dagger]

Other than my Sorceress, it's the fastest clearing class I have for Chaos.

[humble junco]

10-15 minutes chaos runs on bard

[flat dagger]

<4 minutes here.

[earnest valve]

damn you got a bard to 1370 you might as well invest in her

[humble junco]

tons of rage an stress this is the worst thing

[cobalt edge]

why is your main in the 6th slot? xP

[humble junco]

it goes by the SSSS ahhahaha

and it was my last account made hahaha

[cobalt edge]

theres a chaos dg build for a bard just in case https://lost-ark.maxroll.gg/build-guides/bard-chaos-dungeon-cube-guide

[humble junco]

sh first acc realised she will only get far then deathbalde account and then i loved sharpshooter

[cobalt edge]

Prelude of Death is core. xP

[flat dagger]

Hell no it's not 😄

[humble junco]

you bard main? yopu have her built?

[cobalt edge]

For chaos dg. xD Otherwise it will take 10-15 xP

[flat dagger]

Sonic Vibrations is main skill.

[inner wing]

!builds

[midnight flax]

Class builds are pinned in class channels
More info in #guides-and-info

[crude tangle]

wtf is this shadespire shit. floor 9 is literally impossible to clear at that ilv

[humble junco]

chaos solo on other accounts its fun

[cobalt edge]

You can just do 25 and get every reward below it btw... you can also wait to over level it if you have to...

[humble junco]

even tho they have like 1 engraving class its still fun but bardddd omg

[earnest valve]

He should just go to youtube

[crude tangle]

u cant it's locked

[flat dagger]

Shadespire isn't locked.

But he can't even do stage 9, let alone stage 25

[cobalt edge]

I think I confused it with thronespire. xP so nvm

[buoyant herald]

yeah you did

[cobalt edge]

I forget theres T1 and T2 sometimes. xP

[crude tangle]

no stage 9 is survival. the mechanics are so stupid especially when im playing destroyer

[flat dagger]

Are we all getting bamboozled?

[limpid obsidian]

Bard kinda requires a decent chaos build or it'll be PAINFUL.
Even with a good build Bard is kinda meh/bad at Chaos Dungeon.
She needs relic set to get good.

[buoyant herald]

you cant skip stages at t1 and 2 towers wdym ?

[flat dagger]

My 1430 Bard without Relic set begs to differ, as I said earlier it's my 2nd fastest clearing class.

[inner wing]

Chaos dungeons is ez clap

[humble junco]

yes its painful af

[limpid obsidian]

Mine's slow AF.
I'm not running True Courage tho. That might help things

[humble junco]

my main aint even built lol

[flat dagger]

I run True Courage, Cursed Doll and KBW.
Full Crit.

[crude tangle]

fuck this. literally stupid

[limpid obsidian]

Well of fucking course you do well. 3x3 damage engravings

[flat dagger]

All just from drops

[limpid obsidian]

I run Cursed Doll only

[humble junco]

hahahahahah

[buoyant herald]

just random argos stuff goes really fast

[humble junco]

10 minutes 2 chaos done ohhhmyyy gaaaawd

solo would take me 20 minutes

[limpid obsidian]

Meanwhile: My Pally oneshots everything with only 1 damage engraving (Preemptive Strike).

[flat dagger]

Do you run full crit? Do you run True Courage?

[humble junco]

bro i have no built

[maiden locust]

attack power reduction 2 yikes

[flat dagger]

There's your problem then.

[buoyant herald]

literally doesnt matter 1 shots everything

[limpid obsidian]

Fix your build.
Even a basic build shouldn't take longer than ~7min.

[humble junco]

okay i just saw this why the fk i hve 3 debuffs

[inner wing]

Drop of ether yolo

[flat dagger]

And you run Desperate Salvation

[humble junco]

listen GUYS

[limpid obsidian]

@humble junco Heck, making sure you have the correct skills and tripods is the first step.

[humble junco]

i took them from max roll

[flat dagger]

I didn't... Maxroll's DPS build worked much worse than what I currently use.

[humble junco]

one for raid one for chaos ALSO GUYS i havent even built my main i wont built bard it can wait and i can simply go multiplayer chaos

[limpid obsidian]

Hmm, those are decent. Only 1 bad skill there

[flat dagger]

Bruh...

[inner wing]

????

[flat dagger]

Holy fuck that is bad, sorry.

[humble junco]

really ?

[limpid obsidian]

Neither of those are what is listed on Maxroll

[inner wing]

Rhapsody of Light goes brrr

[humble junco]

??? bro ? wdyum

i ddint make up those bro i took them from maxroll

[flat dagger]

I almost want to ask if you're trolling us here.

[limpid obsidian]

You using a Raid build?

[humble junco]

https://lost-ark.maxroll.gg/build-guides/support-bard-raid-guide

[limpid obsidian]

Yep, Raid build

[flat dagger]

Support is fine, DPS is absolutely terrible.

[humble junco]

https://lost-ark.maxroll.gg/build-guides/bard-chaos-dungeon-cube-guide

those two build raid and chaos

[cobalt edge]

o_o

[limpid obsidian]

Neither of your skill setups are like the one listed in the Chaos guide
You made some mistake

[cobalt edge]

[humble junco]

hold uop

[maiden locust]

whats the max lvl?

[flat dagger]

Lv. 60.

[humble junco]

i see new skills here tfuq

[inner wing]

60

[maiden locust]

thanks

[humble junco]

huuuuuuuh? wtf

ohhh thats my raid i got worried

[flat dagger]

One thing you really should change from the Maxroll build is the Stigma 2nd perk, make sure you pick the Forzen Stigma one instead. Huge buff to Stigma during Chaos Dungeons.

[limpid obsidian]

What is this image?

[humble junco]

chaos build

[limpid obsidian]

Ah, that's way wrong

[flat dagger]

Yea, that is dogshit 🥲

[humble junco]

AHAHAH

[flat dagger]

It's like a hybrid support + DPS setup.

[limpid obsidian]

Why?

[limpid obsidian]

B-b-but more damage?

[flat dagger]

This is +30% more damage + crowd control + freeze.

[limpid obsidian]

Oh wait, small critters take more. I thought it was slow only

[flat dagger]

The only enemy not affected by this is the red boss that spawns.

[frigid flare]

guys, its the opitmal 6 char level Main-1430(2)-1370(3)?

[limpid obsidian]

Good call, Ima swap mine.

[flat dagger]

Fun fact, all the small bosses that spawn are "Challenge" monsters and not "Boss".

[humble junco]

thats 5 cha

[inner wing]

Main + 1430 + 1370 they said

[flat dagger]

As for Heavenly Tune, I run 1/1/2 perks and 3/1/1 for Sound Shock.

[humble junco]

myba

[frigid flare]

yea i meant this is it right?

[flat dagger]

Sonic Vibrations I run Agile cast with a protection rune instead of the skill perk with shield.

For rune selection.

[humble junco]

chaos build or raid?

[flat dagger]

Chaos.

[inner wing]

Chaos

[inner wing]

Don't know about that

[limpid obsidian]

This is what I run on Heavenly

AS tripod on lvl2 is good as well

[maiden locust]

optimal 6 characters is 6 times 1475

[limpid obsidian]

I like using Heavenly to burst the Prelude of Death "bubble"

[humble junco]

you are dumb

[maiden locust]

am i wrong tho?

[limpid obsidian]

No, but also not answering the question

[humble junco]

ye ye optiman guys is 6 characters 6 times 1600

cmon maybe my grandchildren will finish my work

or even my son who knows

[humble junco]

i think its good

[limpid obsidian]

@frigid flare optimal parking spot for alts is 1415 if your main is 1460(for the SH honing buff).
Only push alts above that if ALL your alts are at 1415

[slim nacelle]

hey what is 1445? +17? i dont remember

[flat dagger]

Then even more of a reason to run the first 2nd perk, for more attack speed

[limpid obsidian]

Why would that help with that?

[humble junco]

???

is hea sking what im thinking?

[flat dagger]

Just did a 1415 Chaos Dungeon with my Bard, here's the following time.
Stage 1: 52s
Stage 2: 1m17s
Stage 3: 1m39s
Total: 3m48s.

[flat dagger]

Because more attack speed?...

[limpid obsidian]

I'm fairly sure Isn't the +AS is on your buff only, not on the skill itself?

[flat dagger]

Yea, and it will allow you cast Prelude of Death faster...

[limpid obsidian]

Prelude is cast before Heavenly tho if you use Heavenly to burst Prelude, so that tripod doesn't do anything for that

[flat dagger]

Funny, because I use Heavenly Tune before any other skill.

[limpid obsidian]

Exactly, different use-case.

Possibly better. Not sure on that

[flat dagger]

The DPS output is huge if you do that, since any skill gets used quickly then.

This is why I said, Prelude of Death isn't the star of Bard for Chaos Dungeons.

It's good early on when you lack overall damage, but as soon as you get damage then it's not as good anymore.

Stigma, Sonic Vibrations, Dissonance with Bleed and Prelude of Storm all perform better overall.

I primarily use Prelude of Death to wipe the boss quickly, since it has a lot more health though.

Proc and pop all enemies like balloons to instantly kill it.

[limpid obsidian]

What do you use instead of Sound Shock?

[flat dagger]

Sound Shock.

[limpid obsidian]

Why? It's been kinda shit in my experience

[flat dagger]

Bleed rune + Debuff on bigger targets.

[limpid obsidian]

Ah, right the tagging, since your Stigma doesn't do it.

I've been doing Stigma for that

And just tossing Sound Shock

Not sure I found a good skill to replace it with tho

[flat dagger]

Just try my setup for a bit 😄

Sound Shock is also used to pop those red objects.

[limpid obsidian]

You spam your Awakening at every opportunity?
Also, no Relic set, right?

[flat dagger]

I actually don't use my awakening at all

[limpid obsidian]

:o

Your engravings are doing some work tho
My damage is a looot lower since I run support engravings, only slotting in Cursed Doll

[flat dagger]

Priority is True Courage.

[limpid obsidian]

Also, Swift instead of crit D:

[flat dagger]

Full Crit + True Courage is already more than enough to do quick Chaos Dungeons on Bard.

[limpid obsidian]

Well, might as well slot Cursed Doll too, cuz Leg accs from Oreha/Argos easily fill up your True Courage

[flat dagger]

No, you then run KBW 😄

I tried the different versions you're talking about now, they don't perform as well.

Hit Master is also ass compared to KBW.

[limpid obsidian]

Just gotta learn KBW first

[proper monolith]

does someone wanna play

[flat dagger]

KBW is used in many other builds too, get to it.

[limpid obsidian]

#979604707830018079

[limpid obsidian]

Well aware, just don't have any alts that use it so far (not one of their first 3 engravings).

[cosmic wagon]

can i do islands like tooki or illusion isle once per day for a change at the island soul?

[sullen spire]

you can do illusioin multiple times for sure

just the adventure islands only once per day

specifically the 3 that show up in procyon's compass

[limpid obsidian]

You can do both however many times they spawn.
Only adventure islands are once per day.
Do note that there's a Daily Una Task on Tooki that you'll really want to do.
The rep rewards a Giant's Heart, an important collectible.
So do Tooki once per day for the Una rep progress. By the time you've done the 30 days required to complete it, you'll probably have the soul.

[cosmic wagon]

I see. I was under the impression that you only get 1 chance per day for the soul or for the sea bounty from illusion isle. Thanks guys 🙂

And thanks for the tip about the Una daily!

[flat dagger]

Only things limited to once per day is Procyon's Compass things.

[rough prawn]

is this roster wide

[flat dagger]

No.

[rough prawn]

aite ok thanks dad

[loud dagger]

Ok so. My main is 1467 scrapper. I need gems for scrapper. Should strip my gunlancer 1370 has all lvl 5 gems and give everything to her?

[fair mantle]

That's your priority lmao, how much gold you have, how many alts you have, what's your present gems, what are you aiming for etc

[maiden locust]

i love doing 18min yoho runs with a 1415

[fair mantle]

Yoho on 1415

[loud dagger]

I have 6 char. 1482 zerk has all lvl 7 gems. Im waiting on 2 lvl 7 gems i put on ah. But rn my scrapper has only cd gems and i need dmg one so bad

[flat dagger]

Then buy a gem...

[maiden locust]

im not the 1415

[ornate walrus]

is summoner a thing yet?

[buoyant herald]

nope

[ornate walrus]

when will it be

literally only waiting for summoner

[fair mantle]

That's your priority then lmao, this isn't a help me make a decision channel

[loud dagger]

Saving every bit of gold i have for books.

[buoyant herald]

no none knows
classes come out every 3 months and next is scouter in a month after that we only miss summoner and reaper from the older classes

[maiden locust]

nobody knows

[flat dagger]

Listen, how you go about it is your choice. Gems are easily obtained through Boss Rush, Capture Events and those 20x Chests from the Punika Trade Ship. We can't decide if it's worth scrapping your alt's gems to make a main gem.

[ornate walrus]

i quit the game just to wait til summoner becomes a thing. and its still isn't a thing

they got a roadmap?

[buoyant herald]

should just play so you have the mats to push it to high end as it comes out
its no fun playing shit lvl content

im waiting for ayaya from day 1 and its probably like a year away still 😄
at least gonna push it to 1500 day 1

[thin token]

ur gonna be so behind just waiting for a class that may not even come out for another half a year lol, and then u probably wont even enjoy since u will be so behind

[ornate walrus]

the game kinda bores me alone

so what i do is i backtrack and 100% it anyways

[buoyant herald]

well then why do you think summoner is gonan change it XD

[thin token]

u think summoner wil change that?

🤷‍♂️

[ornate walrus]

i just like playing a game til i dont have to play it anymore

and i also struggle to get my power level up

[buoyant herald]

well you dont have to play it at all i really dont get you

[ornate walrus]

its not easy

[buoyant herald]

its easy once you figure it out

[ornate walrus]

clearly you never played a summoner class in any game

same like Path of exile

[buoyant herald]

this is not poe go play that if you like it

[flat dagger]

This isn't #lost-ark-discussions, ask for help or tips here.

[fallow acorn]

does clown legion raid drop ancient gear set?

[flat dagger]

No.

[maiden locust]

no

[fallow acorn]

what does it drop then? another relic?

[flat dagger]

Set upgrade.

[buoyant herald]

relic set upgrade

[fallow acorn]

what is that excatly?

[buoyant herald]

the set effect

[fallow acorn]

i see, so it will be like x2 stronger or so

[flat dagger]

No...

[buoyant herald]

not 2x XD just a little better

[fallow acorn]

so brelzasha drops the ancient gear set right?

[flat dagger]

Just go and read your relic set effect, you can already see it in the conversion menu.

[buoyant herald]

still no XD
abrel normal gives mats for upper relic gear
abrel hard drops mats for ancient 🙂

[fallow acorn]

how do I swap to Lv2 so i read it?

[ornate walrus]

what this do?

[buoyant herald]

use it

[fallow acorn]

i see, this Abrel dungeon normally comes before or after brelshaza?

[ornate walrus]

or this?

[spiral pulsar]

Do you get x3 xp from using triple cube tickets?

[buoyant herald]

brelshaza is abrel 😄 its what they call it in kr

[flat dagger]

Imagine using your eyes and pressing ALT @fallow acorn

[inner wing]

You can sell it to a vendor or keep it as a souvenir

[ornate walrus]

and the thing above? if i may ask

[inner wing]

When you use it, you obtain a bit of Gold

[fallow acorn]

bro so u have to go the npc since that doesn't appear in P

[ornate walrus]

is it worth just keeping? or should i use it?

[flat dagger]

you can already see it in the conversion menu.

[ornate walrus]

is it worth just using all of them? or they got any value

[flat dagger]

You always use XP cards, that's what they are for.

[inner wing]

It's not worth keeping imo

[flat dagger]

The item in question are literally for selling, as part of the reward from the quest.

[ornate walrus]

imma keep one for tinly flex- if i read it correctly. you only got them at game launch right?

[tulip copper]

How hard is the HM vykas? Compared to the normal?

[rough prawn]

Not that hard imo

Same as valtan just 1 more mech

[tulip copper]

I mean the truth is i took a break from the game before it got released and when i come back i got luck with honing i can go straight into the hm rn

[hexed plinth]

Well you can't fail some mech like in normal mode

[hexed plinth]

It's gonna be hard for you if never done it and most parties are looking for reclear and not learning

[tulip copper]

For the last 3 days im watching videos tho lol

[flat dagger]

HM Vykas G1 is a whole 'nother ballgame compared to NM, otherwise it's barely harder elsewhere.

[thin token]

hard mode all gates hit alot harder, gate 1 you have velganos mechanic added to the random pattern pool, and u cannot time stop any failed mechs , gate 2 you cannot afford to miss more than 1 orb during the x65 mech, gate 3 for medusa you would have to assign ppl to look at her based on her wings or just time stop it entirely and she gets additional mech, the orbs mech at x40

[maiden locust]

watching videos and doing the raid yourself is a big difference lol

[tulip copper]

I have no choice tho thats all i can do beforehand

Since i am gs i dont think i would miss orbs or anything im no noob just unexperienced for this specific raid

[flat dagger]

Hard Mode G1 you can get 1-hit sometimes, no one can fail stagger orbs, only one person can fail gate orbs, if anyone dies during purple demon before swap then it's a restart. Then there's the new Velganos Pizza mechanic.

[tulip copper]

Okay then what is the reward difference between them

[hexed plinth]

Just try it then imo

[flat dagger]

Some gold and materials.

[hexed plinth]

Check pins

[flat dagger]

The pins don't have the differences fully laid out.

[hexed plinth]

Yeah

[flat dagger]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VvGOZXOWv0mD9KkZLGHNxFylv5vzmE4lGqGz50HT6M4/edit?usp=sharing

You can check all the differences on that sheet.

[tulip copper]

+1200 gold and double craft mats looks like

[flat dagger]

No.

+500 gold.

[tulip copper]

You consider the chest buy too? Im on phone i couldnt understand it

[flat dagger]

More bound honing materials, accessories, gold and relic materials.

[lean surge]

So if u buy the Punika powerpass but havent gotten to punika could u use it to get to there? my friend is at 1050 power and wants to know if he could use on his character instead of finishing the grind and i cant help cause ive already made it to punika so i dont know if it works like that or not.

[thin token]

paid power pass u dont have to clear punika, and it should be discounted based on how much previous content u did already

[inner wing]

But paid powerpasses are still disabled, right?

[flat dagger]

Correct.

[thin token]

yea and i saw streamer talk with Rox she mentioned that when they come back they will be on discount so if u or ur friend is planning to buy then just wait u can get for even more discount

[inner wing]

[clear hamlet]

what are some items that sell for a lot of silver ?

[flat dagger]

Very few, mostly quest rewards.

[clear hamlet]

any farmable ones that pref stack to 9999 instead of 999 ?

Im trying to go for the Wealthy title

[flat dagger]

Honing materials.

[clear hamlet]

any other ones ? cuz i already had planned to sell 77k guardian stones

[flat dagger]

You can try to buy-back the Anikka dragon head reward, that sells for 30k.

Boombling Island's match reward ticket sells for 10k, you can try once a day to get it as a potential reward.

[clear hamlet]

nice i found the tournament champs plate

[lean surge]

oh really so he wont have to finish the grind then? well hell be happy it say 5500 crystals tho dont think thats discounted cause he gotten all the way to Feiton

[maiden locust]

why lol you dont need them to hone/

[flat dagger]

You can sell then buy them back.

[clear hamlet]

id rather have the wealthy title

since i already planned to have my next char with a title combo

[flat dagger]

But he won't be losing them either way 😄

[maiden locust]

how so?

[flat dagger]

#lost-ark-help message

[clear hamlet]

u can buy back

[flat dagger]

I hope it does 😄

[thin token]

not sure, it should be discounted a little bit since he got to feiton. Maybe wait till they fix power pass issue should be during next reset or next update. I cant remember what day Rox had said lol. Maybe after that the discount will show

[rough prawn]

Does scouter have punika pass?

[maiden locust]

the 24th im pretty sure and the powerpasses will be 25% off

[maiden locust]

probably not

[simple knoll]

i need 10 purple books do you have any idea where to get them? im trying to help a friend build himself

[rough prawn]

Tyty

[flat dagger]

Abyssal Dungeons, Hyper Express and sometimes Chaos Dungeons.

[rough prawn]

is mspeed reduc 1 big

[flat dagger]

Noticable, but not huge.

[rough prawn]

i play eso striker

Aight ill js judge the price diff ig, made 2 stones, once is 6/6 and other is 7/5 but mspeed reduc

[flat dagger]

7/6 won't be useful.

[rough prawn]

so ure telling me i spent 9 pheons for nun?

[flat dagger]

Oh, 7/5...

7/5 is usable for 5x3 with 2x legendary books.

[simple knoll]

hyper express give him like 20 and he need 40 for the 4x3, i have like 70 book and i dont have any idea where i get them (selection)

[flat dagger]

@rough prawn

[rough prawn]

yea its better rite 7/5

Ill js judge the price diff if its worth to go negative

[flat dagger]

6/6 is better if you have no debuff on it.

[rough prawn]

yea

[simple knoll]

so there is no quest or something when he can get 10 selection books?

[flat dagger]

Not that I know of at least, unless perhaps Anguished Isle has some.

You don't really see epic engraving books for exchange or selection very often, nor the random ones.

Why doesn't he just buy the books? @simple knoll

[simple knoll]

low gold XD and i had 70 of them so maybe i did something that i forgot

[simple knoll]

they are class engrave sadly >C

[flat dagger]

You can always send him gold so he can buy them

[simple knoll]

yeye ill prob do this i just, but someone try to not get gold from me bc he is dumb

[maiden locust]

https://i.imgur.com/CdeWQj5.jpeg do i need to get this guy to trusted to get to Hope island?

[flat dagger]

No, it's the first few rapport stages and he gives you a quest.

[maiden locust]

you can sell the class engraving and buy the books you need

[maiden locust]

few as in, amicable or friendly?

[long elk]

doing buses for argos is risky to get banned or not really?

[fair mantle]

No lol

[long elk]

how payment from buses works?

[flat dagger]

I believe it's Amicable.

[maiden locust]

ty

[thin token]

u put a T1 acessory or a gem in auction house and the bussers buy that from you

[long elk]

oh

[maiden locust]

or if your in the same server they can mail you

[thin token]

is bussing even worth it? I never see the worth of it especially if ur doing like 3-4 man bus lol extra work for like 1k extra gold?

[long elk]

thanks

[flat dagger]

DUO Argos bus with the Arcanist hype, you could do 2.5k per person. That's 7.5k per run, each.

I expect it to be similar with every class being released.

[maiden locust]

plus the 2.7k from argos itself

[thin token]

but prices arent 2.5k ive seen them float around for 1.7k at most recently

[flat dagger]

That's still 5.1k extra profit with a DUO.

Basically a HM Legion Raid.

4-man bus is probably not worth doing, but if you're able to and it doesn't take forever, then why not?

[thin token]

hmm yea i guess. I just think about the time it takes to gather ppl and then doing the actual 2-man bus with possible fail lol

I only see bussing worth for chars past 6 limit

but ive never tried bus so idk how hard or easy it is actually 🤷‍♂️

[maiden locust]

i got a gold book from chaos and its contender lmao

[old bane]

how many people is needed for sol grande world boss

[flat dagger]

Just 1 person.

Someone has to kill it

[old bane]

😄 well how many u need to be able to kill it? i doubt one paladin can do it?

[copper badge]

Is anyone else having trouble launching the game right now? EAC loads, does things, and then it just vanishes?

[flat dagger]

That's not something I can answer, it entirely depends on the item level of the person.

Realistic answer is still just 1 person, assuming they are geared properly to deal damage.

[rough whale]

when you guys get a legendary or epic engraving recipe that's useless, like it sells for 1g in the market - do you guys just destroy it?

[copper badge]

sometimes yes

[flat dagger]

I keep them for the future.

[copper badge]

future of what? I've already used all I can of them

[maiden locust]

for lost ark 2?

[tidal kayak]

is it possible to see my fps?

[sand chasm]

for when this game finally succumbs to bots, most of the legit players leave and purple books will cost 100g a pop

[maiden locust]

you sure about that

[buoyant herald]

you can enable it in steam settings

[thin token]

i keep the selection book bags, but those random purple books that u get as drops i just trash them all

[rough whale]

ok cool, cus i have like have my storage filled with purple books that dont sell for more than 1g on the market

[maiden locust]

they arent gonna go up

[wintry nexus]

Does anyone know how many online players(minimum) should enter Slime or Media GvG island so you can get a ranking? I have heard 12 people but am not sure.

[torn skiff]

how do i get the leapstones role?

[inner wing]

#premium-faq

[torn skiff]

and how do i get premium?

do i have to pay? if yes how much

[fair mantle]

Slime island limit is 16

[inner wing]

Use computer, click on "Premium Membership" at the top of every channels of this discord

On mobile it looks like this

[maiden locust]

can you do moake on 1370?

[flat dagger]

Yes, if you join a party which is 1415+ for loot.

[lilac dust]

why ideas why the heck my entire pc just crashes when i go into chaos gate?? this has never happened in the months i played, yesterday i crashed in chaos gate but i was trying to play two games at once and I thought it was because of that ... wtf

[maiden locust]

so if im solo i should just do it on 1415 character

[exotic crow]

iirc 5 class haven't released from our version right? reaper/summoner/machinist/artist/aero

[flat dagger]

100%.

[inner wing]

Yes

[exotic crow]

5x2=10 months till catch up

[maiden locust]

whats the drop rate for the moake omnium star?

[thin token]

basically non-existent. good luck lol

[maiden locust]

thnx i have never done moake before

[thin token]

moake easy but yea idk the exact number rate of star but its really low, u might get lucky get it within first week of doing moake or be stuck to doing it for months and months lol it took me a few months personally

[maiden locust]

of doing it every day?

[thin token]

when world boss is the compass activity yea, and i play consistently everyday, still took me months but its RNG at the end of the day

[maiden locust]

you can do you it everyday right

[outer mason]

Field Bosses are only available on Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays

[thin token]

and u can only get rewards once for that day

[maiden locust]

okay

do you get enough mats from tier 2 islands, tower and event to get to tier 3 right away?

[thin token]

with new honing changes making honing cheaper and basically 100% every one pre tier 3, I would say the amount of mats would either definetly get u to tier 3 or like really close to it.

[maiden locust]

okay i did all that for tier 1 yesterday and i was 200 leapstones shor

[thin token]

yea either way, you should definetly still do them for the mats it will help alot

[maiden locust]

yeah

[trail steppe]

can you save tripods for other classes in your library?

thinking of saving some lvl 4s for other classes I have not yet made

[flat dagger]

No, it's character based, not roster.

[trail steppe]

hmm thanks, I wonder if I make a new character, unlock the AH and save some

[stark siren]

whats the best 3 una for shards?

[thin token]

u wont be able to buy tier 3 tripods if ur char is not tier 3

[simple knoll]

i dont know if is this the right chat but since there is only 1 hit master purple book in market is there someone here in euw that want to sell 10 of them to me pls?

[silver rain]

i'd do starsand's customer, yorn's market research, the last one maybe Arthetine's red sand one or 3 hidden fairy in rohendel

[stark siren]

[stark siren]

that hidden fairy one is rng?

or any strat for it

[silver rain]

yea its rng. dont think there is one but never have to search the hideout more than 5

but if you're not fond of rng Vern's die a hundred death is good too more shard also just have to kill like 1-2 groups of mobs then triport to submit

[olive saddle]

Fastest way to get farm development lvl 5?

[narrow anvil]

what are the sources of free leg engravings ? i got the tower and angished island , is there any other place ?

[silver rain]

thats it

[silver rain]

you can spam crafting some structure for SH exp

[stark siren]

[peak wadi]

What mana food can I make for free from using the stronghold farm?

[chilly sluice]

\how long is the story

[spiral thistle]

In what context? Story isn't even finished in the game so far. If you mean just getting to Lv50 takes between 12-20hr for new players

[low totem]

is there a soundtrack loop for the stronghold, music is fire

[chilly sluice]

yeah thats what i meant ty

[median olive]

am i tripping or are we getting battle pass soon 🤔

[maiden locust]

no powerpasses are coming back

[peak wyvern]

I think they're talking about the Ark Pass

[hot dock]

what are amethyst shards and for what do i use them

[astral root]

Amethyst shard shop in towns, gives stuff like Aura and Pheons plus stickers

[sage fern]

Theres a merchant where you can buy emotes ship skins and other stuff

You get them from prime and twitch drops + some achievements

[hot dock]

oh nice

any twich drops this month?

[sage fern]

Dont use them for aura or pheons unless you dont care about emotes and skins and such

Since you barely get any even with prime

[sage fern]

I believe so yeah

You get some pixel glasses too

[mellow crown]

I pull up

[deft stag]

So is 12 pieces with 2 17's still best way to get to 1415 or should i do it evenly?

[maiden locust]

yes thats best

[slender swift]

does the ultimate stress buster give bonus rewards for the full duration or should i just restart whenever i can get a level

[buoyant herald]

no bonus it just stops after 7 days 😄

[slender swift]

ait

[hot dock]

ah so they are the same as last month, do u know when we grt more

[sage fern]

Think every two months or so

You dont need to watch the stream just have it running in the background

[hot dock]

nice

[fiery zinc]

how do u repair your armor remotely with crystalline aura active?

[buoyant herald]

ctrl right click your pet ? pet functions and it has repair there

or just alt P

[astral root]

(remember you have to be in the yellow circle with the gear in raids)

[buoyant herald]

no you dont

you can literally repair while fighiting the boss XDDDD

[astral root]

Oh wait that's for loadouts

[buoyant herald]

yea

[astral root]

excuse me

[icy shuttle]

Hello guys , i notice there're some blue crystal package that has better deal than just buying blue crystal directly using the currency exchange for the blue crystal.
Anyone has such list available showing the package that has better deal? (like less royal to buy more blue crystal but a one time purchase per account thing)

[simple knoll]

maxroll calculator is less intuitive or im dumb

[deep sorrel]

if you have royal crystals, buying blue crystals directly is always better than RC->gold->BC (unless you manage to do RC->gold when it's high and then gold->BC when it's low)

[icy shuttle]

No you get me wrong.
I'm talking about royal crystal purchase for crystal that's like 1 time per account but has better blue crystal ratio
Which one has the best deal in chronological order?

[deep sorrel]

2600 BC for 1100 RC, then 2600 for 5500 RC, then 3600 for 8000 RC, then 2000 for 4500 RC, then the regular ones

or you just divide the BC value by the RC value and look at the ratio

[icy shuttle]

Tyty

I dont plan on buying too many packages, i only buy it cuz i';m kinda desperate now due to inflation XD

[hoary rivet]

is anyone else having issues with eac offline specifically when it comes to adventure islands?

i've gotten eac offline in my last 3 adventure islands

and it eats up my adventure island chance and doesn't give me rewards when i connect back

[trail hawk]

i only crashed once during advent island, but that was due to amd shitty drivers...

[boreal cosmos]

Whats the fastest way to earn roster xp?
I got 3 characters, did story only on 1 and a half, did a fine amount of collectibles (not too much, but some) and all of the side quests i've seen on my main, still lv 86 and my main is 1430
any tips?

[mental grotto]

are tgere some people that can help with 1 boss no 1 wants to come its runic on astra?

[opal pebble]

Does anyone know where I can find the Adventure Mysterious Chest dropped by forpe?

[modest sedge]

Does anyone know if the chaos gate punika maps and south vern can mix or is it only 4 punika and 4south vern that works?

[maiden locust]

cant mix

[modest sedge]

Okay thank you very much

[polar fern]

when does the most recent power pass end? I haven’t played in a bit, curious how much time I have, if any

[maiden locust]

you mean the punika pass?

[polar fern]

I mean express event

[maiden locust]

that one ends at the end of september

[polar fern]

ok ty

[maiden locust]

so you still have time

[inner wing]

Forpe island ?

Batuark boss

[modest sedge]

Is there a channel for spesific servers here?

[maiden locust]

should i do tier 1 and 2 tower on my 1370 alts for the roster xp

[inner wing]

Yes. The ones for wandering merchants. But they aren't for discussions or anything else

[sullen spire]

get 20 island souls at least, you need to get 6 omnium stars asap

persoanlyl found doing storylines on alts was the fastest way for roster xp since quests give them... also on your alts do towers those give tons of roster xp

[modest sedge]

okay

[blazing plover]

is there any penalty for cancel bidding on an accessory?

[eternal zenith]

prob different costume type ? Did you have the preview skin on ?

[peak wyvern]

One of them is blueish kinda :^) and one is just pure black iirc

They're kind of cheap in the AH too so you don't waste the 2.4k Royals or 1k bloo gems

[rough prawn]

Hello does any1 uses vpn/mudfish here

[silver rain]

no but unless someone outbid you, you cant cancel bidding

if someone outbid you can just hit cancel and take your gold and pheons back

[fiery zinc]

If you got Moake Field Boss Omnium Star, how many times did it take you, just trying to see peoples' RNG

[thin token]

like 3-4 months

[shy yarrow]

i still havent got it

i actually havent gotten the last 3 stars and im starting to see no end to buying card xp

[sullen spire]

2 months for me. although ive been trying to get lagoon island soul since feb and i still don't have it

[shy yarrow]

the wealth one i got from there and was really lucky on the soul too

[thin token]

i am missing nia star lol but i will proably never get because i dont want to do virtue point farming

[shy yarrow]

so many of the adventure islands when they have only silver for reward i really just wanna cry

you can rapport bomb her

[sullen spire]

lagoon is apparently one of the easier island souls to get, i already have medeia and volare which is supposed to be hard but those came way before lagoon

[thin token]

yep, too late for me

[shy yarrow]

im not sure why the medeia one hasnt dropped for me but im starting to think its cause i normally afk after getting a few kills and points

legit no one ever plays for the medeia shit

[sullen spire]

no medeia island soul droprate is pretty low

[fiery zinc]

I got legendary bleed rune, but all it says is "Inflict bleed" lol. How much bleed damage does it do.

[sullen spire]

you can also get medeia during the guild event

[shy yarrow]

i do it so often that i start to wonder tho lol

[shy yarrow]

i believe its based off the skill you put it ons damage, but ive never tested

best to use as a filler rune of something for chaos farming

since u can apply it to an entire wave with some abilities like zerk whirlwind

[sullen spire]

yeah only thing im reading is that it's proportional to your attack dmg or something on kr but no exact rates you just have to do the testing yourself since runes and setups are different for everyone

[echo peak]

what exactly does the rest bonus do

[broken egret]

it doubles the things you get from dungeon

[shy yarrow]

seems bleed is entirely based off your attack power

pretty sure the damage is the same for all bleed runes just time of effect lasting

[echo peak]

so if i have 0 what does that mean

[inner wing]

It means you'll do a normal run

[echo peak]

poggers

so if my AOR is 0 what does that mean

[thin token]

u can think of it like this: every 20 rest bonus u will get -1 wat u would normally get so for example: u do guardian raid with rest bonus of 20 u will get 2 orb first run and then 1 orb 2nd run = 3 orbs but if u did 2 times for yesterday and today instead of skipping that 1 day then u would have gotten 4 orb

[tulip copper]

I should juice up for my 18 armor right? Its 5% base

[thin token]

dont juice armor, save all for weapons :x

[tulip copper]

But its 5% absolute gold sink

It gives +2.3 artisian energy like its hopelessness

[thin token]

weapons are double the hone cost of armor basically, and if u juice armor u are still doing a gold sink by buying the solars and then still fail. armor does not cost that much

I got all my armor piece to +20 with no solars 🤷‍♂️

[tulip copper]

Ok

[sand chasm]

at least dont juice until you hit upper honing rate after some fails

5% base = 10% max after few fails which can be 15% with juicers

but with the prices of juicers i think it's a waste overall

[tulip copper]

Im going raw then bois

Wml

[sand chasm]

[thin token]

well like i said weapon is like double the cost so i just save all solars for weapons, and yea i dont buy them most of the time either because u will easily run out of gold by buying them. I just wait for a while till i get some freebies

[tulip copper]

Where do you guys get your fusion mats

[thin token]

i will admit doe, one of my armor piece from 18 > 19 or 19 > 20 i forget but i did have to full pity. was pretty wack

[tulip copper]

I went from 16 to 19 weapon with 5 total hones so even if i pity all my armors i would still consider myself lucky

[thin token]

I recently found out about the farm in stronghold lol do u have that unlocked? it can auto farm life skills for u and u can use those life skill mats to make fusion material. But until recently i just buy them from auction house

[tulip copper]

My stronghold is actually almost 60 level im investing in it all the way but never benefitted from it lol

But i once calculated and the difference between crafting and buying fusions was super slim

I was also about to reach 30 with my lifeskills too but i took a break for couple months

[thin token]

lol yea i felt the same way which is why i just buy them from the auction house but ppl tell me crafting them u will save alot gold in the long run. Now that I know about the farm im just let the stronghold farm mats for me and i guess ill start crafting

[elder slate]

is their any channel where i can look for guild

[tulip copper]

Oh wait you actually profit 30%

[thin token]

#guild-recruitment

[tulip copper]

I thought the manually farmed life skill mats were also required but it is not and since stronghold farm gives almost infinite amount of mats its %30 save

[agile quail]

Is boss rush locked if I skip yorn questline?

[strange kelp]

btw i was wondering should i use silver for tp? i am new around item lvl 900smt and i wasn't sure if i should save silver for later or i can use it for tp i am at 2.3 mil rn

[maiden locust]

just tp

[real merlin]

Which support class is simpler to play? Bard or paladin?

[quick ice]

what is the best job skill to craft fusion mats? fishing vs hunting vs excavating?

[wraith basin]

paladin

[wise blade]

can you get 4x3 with a 7 5 stone and both books +9?

[maiden locust]

no you need 6 6

[maiden locust]

what do you mean

[rough prawn]

if im gonna spend right

my max is like 15usd

[maiden locust]

then yeah the pass is worth it gives allot of mats

[fair mantle]

More like enough mats to get 2.5 ilvl

[rough prawn]

Tyty

[maiden locust]

can you do two adventure islands on weekends or did they fix it

[maiden locust]

how much gold do valtan and vykas HM give

[deep sorrel]

you can do two, but it needs to be one in the morning rotation and one in the evening rotation

[torpid obsidian]

morning rotation meaning 3-5am?

or is the morning rotation happening right now

[deep sorrel]

uh idk what your time zone is but in-game the morning rotation is 11am, 1pm, 3pm

[pure oyster]

do i just get my legendary gear to +17 or should i go higher before gear tranfer?

[bronze haven]

yeah im not sure tbh how to fix my issuew

i wanna play the dam game

[deep sorrel]

well you can transfer to relic whenever but you can only get it at 1445 so that'll be at +17 everything (usually)

oh no i understand thank you 😄

do i need to finish the continent to unlock dailies
how far can i go in main story before I need to start grinding gear

[maiden locust]

tier 1 and 2 tower are per character

[maiden locust]

you need to finish north vern to be able to do chaos. gaurdians etc

[robust yoke]

[deep sorrel]

thronespire is roster-wide

[orchid lark]

debating if i wanna make a scrapper on soulfist

what do you all think is more fun and better to play with

[short coral]

can someone walk me through how abyss raids work? not the mechanics just how it starts and how it ends. the three phase thing is confusing me

[blazing badger]

basically, there's 3 phases to argos at 1370 1385 and 1400 ilevels to damage him properly

when you enter, you have to do it all in one go - you can do 1 only, 1 & 2, or 1,2, & 3

[winter panther]

are the prices of common legendary engraving books like grudge expected to go up in the future?

[blazing badger]

as a bard you can get into later phases without meeting the ilevel though as your damage isn't priority (though your meter gain will suck) - recommended to have heavy armor engraving in that case (and it's a good engraving for bard overall too)

[short coral]

so since im only a 1370 i can quit after the first phase?

[blazing badger]

yeah but the entire party must quit at once

[short coral]

ah

[blazing badger]

so you would typically join a group which has a certain goal in mind - normally you'll see P1, P2, or P3 in titles

group finder titles that is. if you go in matchmaking, since it's only 1370 to enter, it will very likely be P1 only

[short coral]

ah okay ty

[night crystal]

Is it better to bus up to p3 or just do p1 for argos?

[blazing badger]

the optimal way to play is to either get heavy armor 3 and get yourself into a 1400 group, or buy a bus (you'll get 2700g for finishing so as long as you can front the gold, you'll make profit) - but I don't think buying a bus is very entertaining and this game isn't a strict optimisation exercise

definitely bus >> p1 only

p2 vs bus is somewhat equivalent in gold as long as you don't overpay, but you lack the amount of drops etc at the end

[night crystal]

can you get scammed when buying a bus>

[opaque cave]

What is the most populated region right now?

[blazing badger]

hypothetically yes but I've not seen it happen. there are generally two accepted payment types - pay before entry, and pay after p2 (typically the hardest phase to bus)

I'm not sure if GMs etc will take account action against scammers

[maiden locust]

NA

[blazing badger]

if you do pay after p2 you will almost certainly not be scammed since they've already invested a lot of effort by that point

[opaque cave]

West or East

[maiden locust]

i think east is a little more but both are fine

[opaque cave]

tyvm!

[frigid oracle]

Is dispatching guardian raids really worth if you are rested? I keep seeing people get legendary engraving books from them.

[maiden locust]

is it fine to do guardian raids on my own if i cant find people?

[blazing badger]

as a paladin it's gonna be really slow, but it's still very possible

[maiden locust]

shit, thanks

[blazing badger]

yeah, sadly paladin and bard have very low singletarget dps

your aoe's good though, so soloing chaos dungeons etc should be straightforward (albeit with a different skillset from general support)

[maiden locust]

yes chaos dungeons are a breeze to me, I guess I'll just progress the story

[blazing badger]

I'm guessing you're having trouble with the really early ones, probably not many players doing those anymore

[maiden locust]

yeah it's t1 raids, but it's fine. I'll get higher ilvl and not run into this problem anymore

[blazing badger]

the only roadblock you'll find is that you have to have cleared guardians in the previous tier to access the next, but asking someone to burn them for you shouldn't be too bad. doesn't take much time if you just bring a high level in

[tidal kayak]

how do i get more of those gold coin things to craft stuff in stronghold?

[tough linden]

guys, which npc gives the quest for set conversions? i got 55 valtan and vykas wings, but im not seeing it anywhere

[blazing badger]

iirc you have a quest appear in this tab

the game doesn't exactly make it obvious it exists haha

[blazing badger]

you mean this currency?

[tough linden]

yep, is there, thank you, rly dumb of them

[blazing badger]

it is haha as soon as you do that quest, the option appears on your equipment screen, beneath your char

[tidal kayak]

Yea

[blazing badger]

that's like the primary "money" currency traded between players, and you'll steadily get more as you get to higher ilevels, from clearing raids, selling items, doing una's dailies (daily/weekly quests), etc

[night crystal]

Whats the best sources of Silver*?

[tidal kayak]

oh

[rain meadow]

Chaos dung, lopang dailies... alts basically

Cube too

[opaque cave]

Im roster level 79 right now with 3 characters between 1350-1375. me and my gf used to play alot when the game came out but took a break. we recently came back and my server is 80% bots and some islands and Ghost ships arent doable. is it worth just starting over on a new server that is populated?

[blazing badger]

are you on euw?

[opaque cave]

NAW

[low oar]

ive seen i think 7 real players

[shy yarrow]

theres small glimmer of hope that they will notice and do some server merges or transfers

im not having much fun on dead server either atm

[opaque cave]

im really worried that they will just look at number and over look my server because there is alot of people but they are mostly all bots.

[shy yarrow]

that is how it be

[opaque cave]

sadge this game is so fun

[rain meadow]

In terms of legion raids, NAW isnt dead, so you either hope for a server merge to happen to consolidate the playerbase or just start fresh on Valtan/Mari (idk thr state of the other servers)

[night crystal]

do costumes add stats? bonus?

[wispy walrus]

wat server?

[opaque cave]

Bergstrom

[rain meadow]

Yeah they give like 1% to your stats

[wispy walrus]

why? i mean why go to mars? come back to Earth we at valtan

[night crystal]

whole set of costume for 1% stat?

[rain meadow]

It was probably during the launch when all the servers were full

[opaque cave]

LMFAO

[rain meadow]

I think its each piece? Idk for sure

[opaque cave]

it was at the start when everything was full

[shy yarrow]

wasnt shandi the worst naw server?

idk where bergstorm even ranks on the list

[maiden locust]

In "Fuse gems" system, does important to fuse similar type of gems (cooldown ones - damage +%) or totally random the result?

[thin token]

random

[mellow mauve]

totally random, 50/50 on getting a cd or dmg

[night crystal]

is there a way to reroll argos gear for higher quality?

[wispy walrus]

some of my mates had same thing , ended up in wrong NAW servers , too much loss of real money as they bought some packs/skins. 2 of them went to botting/third party , made a new char , now they are more rich than me LOL , i dont recommend it tough

[opaque cave]

yeah my biggest worry is that ill feel shitty for basically throwing away money on this server if i start over.

[rain meadow]

If you havent gear transferred, you can dismantle and recraft. Id advise against it personally

[night crystal]

I see tnx

[maiden locust]

What lvl are you?

[opaque cave]

not that high. like 54 on a main and the others are 52-53

[maiden locust]

What ilvl

[opaque cave]

3 characters between 1350-1375 used the event to get it. i think im going to buy a punika powerpass on mari and start over and use the event to get caught up

[boreal cosmos]

Whats the clown requirements? 1460?

[mellow mauve]

1475 for normal

[wispy walrus]

1475 better

[boreal cosmos]

And for brelshaza?

[opaque cave]

i wish it would say the powerpasses are disabled on the power pass screen :)

[sick thunder]

why its not like you need people on your server

unless you want to do islands specifically for some reason

[ember pewter]

Brel normal is 1490 for gate 1 and 2.

[low oar]

do u just suddenly gain a ton of ilevel after the main story?

[maiden locust]

why do i see a random pink/purple glow around my character sometimes

[low oar]

cause im combat lvl 40+ and like

ive stayed the same ilevel

[wary heath]

Hello, I am fairly new to the Lost ark scene I wish to gain some aid and help

[maiden locust]

what do you need?

[wary heath]

namely, how does one get to tier 3

I am currently at t 1 with most items

[trail hawk]

by getting to item score 1100

with t1 you firt get to 600, then you go to yorn for t2

and with t2 you then get to 1100

[wispy walrus]

youtube

[maiden locust]

or buy a powerpass when they are enabled again

[thin token]

u should follow this to get to tier 3, and also look around this website it will have everything you need such as builds , guides , resource locations etc
https://lost-ark.maxroll.gg/resources/road-to-rohendel

[wary heath]

thank you guys so much

[wary heath]

How do I use the leap stone and harmony shards?is that listed in the web site?

[shy yarrow]

each tier has its own shards/stones/leaps

so once you outta that tier you dont use them ever again

[thin token]

on the website go at the top to resources tab > gear > gear honing
that explains honing for you

[wary heath]

many thanks

[maiden locust]

how can I "transfer into abyssal dungeon legendary set" if my entry count is exceeded?

[shy yarrow]

after you reach t2 there will be more available mats and stuff to use for honing, but they are also tier bound

[plucky elm]

I remember hearing that we were going to get a free punika pass, but I didn't log in the past month, and I don't see it anywhere. Did that offer expire already?

[shy yarrow]

you had to have completed the bearver quest

[plucky elm]

what quest is that?

[shy yarrow]

your entry is gone you cant enter

[pseudo atlas]

if you did oreha normal this week before hitting 1370 you just don't get to do oreha hard for legendary gear, you can just do argos for gear this week

[maiden locust]

i'm t1 and just trying to go from 460 to 600

[shy yarrow]

in the area with the punika festival theres a purple quest with berver

[plucky elm]

is it the maharaka one?

[pseudo atlas]

okay well then you can do your abyss dungeons at that level and craft the gear

you don't need to get legendary gear to upgrade past 460 to begin with

[maiden locust]

I was wondering if I needed the entire legendary set before I start honing to +15

[pseudo atlas]

no

[shy yarrow]

genuinely dont know, i have completed all of the punika quests so all i know is berver is the quest start point lol

[pseudo atlas]

all the way up to ilvl1370 is just "get whatever gear, hone to +15"

[shy yarrow]

im pretty sure it was the one you do the become a punika citizen

[maiden locust]

thanks so much

[plucky elm]

What is the "beaver" / "berver" you're talking about?

[pseudo atlas]

it's literally a guy named berver

[shy yarrow]

big fat hawaiian dude with no shirt

if you dont see him in the festival area then you likely did it already or not finished story

[plucky elm]

by festival area do you mean nia village?

[pseudo atlas]

https://lostarkcodex.com/us/quest/1201141/

[plucky elm]

The only purple quest I have in nia village is "where memories begin"

[ember pewter]

That's the start of the quest line

[plucky elm]

nice thanks

[shy yarrow]

if you check the quests you have and one of them is a prerequisite to that one above then do those

[boreal cosmos]

How many vykas clears do I need for relic set?

with buying the chest

[rain meadow]

[ember pewter]

Depends on the number of pieces you need. With buying chest normal gives 6 wings all gates and hard 12

[wispy walrus]

why melody is chocolaty?

[fiery zinc]

so is Astray the fastest ship or Eurus?

[shy yarrow]

astray

[fiery zinc]

So the Eurus fast ship recovery doesnt make up for the base speed difference?

[wispy walrus]

i'm 1475 and never cared about ships , i dont even know wat ship i got LOL

[pearl lintel]

Is it better to go for preordained or chosen now for dps alts at 1370?

[fiery zinc]

well fk me, im 2 days away from getting Eurus

[wispy walrus]

pre

[shy yarrow]

pretty much everyone goes crit rate set besides like zerker and some already high crit classes

[maiden locust]

at what point do I do gear transfers? i'm at ilvl600 now

[pseudo atlas]

at ilvl600 and 1100

or whenever you feel like it if you get a minor upgrade in a tier

[maiden locust]

so I do ilvl 600 raids and they drop ilvl600 items, and I transfer my ilvl 460 gear onto that?

[pseudo atlas]

no you must do yorn chaos dungeons to get ilv802 items (you transfer ilvl600 to this) or you just buy it off the auction house

[maiden locust]

[old bane]

does ancient gear come out with the 4th legion raid?

[boreal cosmos]

does a 4/3 grudge/adr spec earring really worth 10k?
can I find it for cheaper?
some recent prices went from 1.5k - 5k, just searching in a bad time now?

[thin token]

wait after reset for new batch of accessory to flood market

[subtle helm]

It's probably your integrated preset

[hot dock]

did they disable normal powerpass?

[pseudo atlas]

you mean the free ones? those are working

[hot dock]

it opens the crystal interface when i select it

[pseudo atlas]

have you actually clicked on vern or punika

[hot dock]

nope

lemme try

it worked thx

[boreal cosmos]

I'm 1430, would you guys spend 85 peons out of 181 peons to get 4x3 with 4 relic accessories and 1 legendary and once getting to 1460-1475 buying more peons from cash shop w/ gold and going for 5x3
OR
saving peons, waiting till later point at the game (probably not before reaching 1460) that i'll have enough gold for legendary engraving books and getting 5 relics for 5x3?

Most likely by the point i'll hit 1460 i'll manage to save up quite a lot of gold and waste some of it for more peons, right?

[main depot]

for shadowhunter ?

[boreal cosmos]

yup

[main depot]

u can go 4x3 and 1 lvl 2 adrenaline

should get a stone first tho

since it can drain pheons really quick

[boreal cosmos]

my stone is decent and i wasted over 60 peons for it lol

[main depot]

ye should aim for 7/7 and probly grudge or hit master instead of adrenaline

[pseudo atlas]

what are you running right now

[boreal cosmos]

my goal is grudge/adr/kbw/di

[main depot]

either 9/7,9/5 or 7/7

[boreal cosmos]

rn im adr/kbw/di 3x3 with this stone

this is the planner ive made
I already have dropped the relic ring 4/3 KBW DI spec

[main depot]

tbh u can easily reach 4x3 and 1 lvl 1 or 2 adrenaline for decent price and it will last u for a pretty dang long time since u play shadowhunter just make sure u got really high quality accessories

[boreal cosmos]

i kinda don't want to give up on my ring tho
so that might block me a bit from getting 4x3 + 1

[main depot]

i would put hit master in there instead of adrenaline and put lvl 2 adrenaline or lvl 1

[pseudo atlas]

how much is a pack of pheons right now anyway, like 10-15k gold?

[main depot]

hm what ring ?

[boreal cosmos]

\

[main depot]

meh

[boreal cosmos]

I can sell it

[main depot]

can be easily switch and the quality aint great either

[boreal cosmos]

but.. i don't think it'll be worth it

[ancient lark]

last time I checked at least 12k for EUC

[crude tangle]

how much increase stats does a 50 quality ring compared to 100 quality have

[boreal cosmos]

DI rings are hella expensive anyways

[pseudo atlas]

we're still going to have 4-6 weeks of event pheons so that's something like 50 pheons before any major content

[main depot]

i can send u an example

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/966723527434731571/1011002511127216268/unknown.png?width=995&height=676

[boreal cosmos]

19.. not that big

[main depot]

use double class engraving and get it out of the way

that way u dont have to pay for expensive ass demonic impulse accessories with low quality

[crude tangle]

19%? or 19 stat points. if so, i dont get why people spend so much gold getting better quality

[boreal cosmos]

19 points
sure, spec is very important on SH

[main depot]

as u can see 4x3 and lvl 1 adrenaline even

[boreal cosmos]

but for 19 points or lets say 40 in total for 2 rings, wouldn't make such a big difference

[main depot]

with double class engravings equip

[main depot]

that is about 4% dmg my guy

[boreal cosmos]

I can transform now with 1 rotation anyways
the problem is if i miss one of my big skills

[main depot]

with 1639 spec u can transform withing 4 skills

[boreal cosmos]

SA over grudge?

[main depot]

as i said its an example justa budget build i made for a friend

[boreal cosmos]

yea I know
I also need to farm my last 2 wealth runes lol

[main depot]

but it show that it is possible to get 4x3 and 1 lvl 1 adrenaline even wiht double demonic equiped

for a much cheaper price

cuz lets be honest no1 gonna accept 3x3 in a vykas hm pt or even nm

[boreal cosmos]

i just did today for the first time vykas nm on 3x3 tho xd

[main depot]

unless u got friends to run with

[boreal cosmos]

on a pug^

[main depot]

not gonna be very common unless they know that they already got enough dmg

[thorn sleet]

does anyone have the discord for hell valtan group finderS?

[boreal cosmos]

well anyways i plan on popping 4x3 asap before the next reset. hopefully in 2-3 weeks i'll reach 1445-1460

[main depot]

ye good idea idm helping on finding options dm me if u need

[maiden locust]

what do I spend maharaka leaves on?

[tawdry flume]

then you're gonna have to redo accs again, paying ~ 5k per acc

[shy yarrow]

theres a vendor on the island and in every city you can take a look at

theres a lot of good stuff there, highly recommend buying out the store if you can

[main depot]

gonna take sometime before he gotta do that since shadowhunter is built different the dmg between 5x3 with trash quality and 4x3 with good quality is same shit and in most cases 4x3 with high quality is still better but for much less price

[dusky bobcat]

how good is Soulfists dps?

[main depot]

not to mention the last engraving is going to be adrenaline in 90% of the cases so lvl 1 or 2 adrenaline works too no need 5x3 until much much later on

[main depot]

which build ?

[dusky bobcat]

uh not too sure i just meant the class in general tryna decide what to play

[main depot]

ah well there is the big burst build and then there is the sustain dmg build overall its kinda meh atm imo

always nice to have a sf in team tho but their playstyle is pretty weird tbh

2 much works for 2 little imo but its all about having fun so

[dusky bobcat]

what classes have really good dps? idc if its melee or range as long as its not sorceress since my friend is already playing that

[shy yarrow]

sorceress

[main depot]

xD

[dusky bobcat]

lmaoo

[main depot]

scrapper is good and very beginner friendly

[shy yarrow]

zerk, scrapper, blade, sh, destroyer, gunlance all do very good

[main depot]

shock scrapper

[shy yarrow]

some of them are a bit harder, like gunlance and destroyer, cause they slower and long ass animations

but sh, scrapper, zerk are all very good and easy to pickup

[main depot]

shadowhunter does require wealth runes tho but aside from that ye its pretty good char for both main and alt

zerker is a no brainer

[shy yarrow]

yea getting full meter off one rotation youll need wealth runes

[main depot]

but if u wanna go zerker ehm its kinda hard to get in pt imo

[rose jewel]

floorzerker

[main depot]

xD

[shy yarrow]

im still waiting on getting my damn leg wealth rune

[dusky bobcat]

you said destroyer is good?

[main depot]

pretty good ye

[dusky bobcat]

maybe ill just stick with that its what i leveled to get my power passes

[shy yarrow]

slow, but high damage, lots of stagger

[main depot]

ye lots of burst

[shy yarrow]

youll be a very solid pick in endgame raids

[main depot]

and pretty tanky

only problem is it is slow but those perfect swings are so satisfying

gunlancer is nice but only after full relic at 1445+

[dusky bobcat]

hmm ill ty out scrapper too the skiin in the shop looks pretty sick lmaoo

[main depot]

ye its a pretty nice class

both class engravings are nice but shock is better atm

[dusky bobcat]

I got 1 power pass from the first quest you get it from so im just tryna find my main and alt since ill have more than one 50

[main depot]

ahh

[fair mantle]

whuh

[wild jackal]

Wait why does my 6th character valtan say exceeded weekly gold limit?

[main depot]

hm?

[pseudo atlas]

it just says that when you're at 6 or higher

[wild jackal]

oh so will I still get the gold?

[pseudo atlas]

if the name is on the list of gold recipients then yes

if you have 6 or fewer characters then yes

[wild jackal]

ah okay good I did argos on the 6th and then that message appeared

thought I shouldnt have . ty

[pure lotus]

for set conversions is it 55/55 per set or one time for everything

[main depot]

1 time for all

[pure lotus]

oktyty

[maiden locust]

do people stack rest bonus so i can get all the rewards doing less stuff?

[main depot]

i do

[subtle helm]

depends how many characters you have and how much time you have to play
