[dusky sigil]

Meaning this accs is for clowns

[crisp turtle]

thats why i specifically said "bard"

[onyx mica]

Just wondering when were the briliant city skins availabel?

[rain meadow]

july? if i recall

[worldly frigate]

what the goto early game raid build on shadowhunter?

im in tier 1

[ornate dock]

check out the maxroll guide for leveling (for shadowhunters) (google lost ark shadowhunter maxroll leveling guide should be first link)

[worldly frigate]

im not lvling though?

[ornate dock]

well on the same website you can find the raid build too aka the "end game" one

[pseudo atlas]

you just pick the raid build and slap on class engravings and then you're done, if you have more engraving books or pick up useful accessories you could probably add on lv1 of whatever that increases damage

[worldly frigate]

so i can pick either 1 of these for early game?

[pseudo atlas]

probably, it's hard to pick wrong before you get to tier 3, just put on accessories that have the correct substats

[ornate dock]

if you're looking to play meta, go for demonic impulse btw

perfect depression suppression is not as good, but if you don't care about the meta, see what suits your style

[mellow mauve]

PS is fine, just takes longer to get going

[ornate dock]

it is fine, but not what you would consider "meta" or "min max dmg for shadowhunters"

[mellow mauve]

It's not the popular build of the two but it is the build if you're trying to min-max dmg

[tough spoke]

just leveled a demon shadowhunter, with all specialization accessories on the demon form was ready in pressing all skills once and then you basically one or two shot everything in T1-T2 but havent tried how it works the other side around focusing on the human form skills

[crisp turtle]

it takes a lot more to get PS to equalise DI, but its not worse, just takes more commitment

only reason its not "meta" is because people prefer the DI playstyle/its easier to build

[rose jewel]

cockroach

[tough spoke]

used like 3 million silver to roll demon form gems tho lol 😄

[maiden locust]

You only need 2

[tough spoke]

yea but it was bad luck gettin those 2

[rose jewel]

but then you're done

[tough spoke]

yeah its pretty nice, i hear the new mechanist class is kinda the same

[maiden locust]

It is

[paper glacier]

how do u look up feasts through codex?

[thin token]

the mokoko event i saw someone say somewhere the "golden" seeds are the ones that give like 5k+ gold? or is it just rng from any color seed?

[tough spoke]

the max is 10k but its all random and you can do only one per roster a day

[thin token]

ok i thought only golden color ones give that much gold

[crisp turtle]

they turn gold after you've picked them

[thin token]

day 3 of getting like 40g lol event seems pointless lowkey

[tough spoke]

this one time, i turned in 2x500 una tokens and got extra 11200g in gold bars so pray to the RNGesus

[pseudo atlas]

i mean it only takes a few minutes and has a chance of dropping something worth a fair amount

[thin token]

[obsidian hill]

is there a "should i buy box" calculator somehwere

[crisp turtle]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VvGOZXOWv0mD9KkZLGHNxFylv5vzmE4lGqGz50HT6M4/edit#gid=1299188745

have to enter your own server prices

[obsidian hill]

ok thx

[pseudo atlas]

wonder if we can get the other pin updated to this sheet, assuming the numbers are accurate

[crude karma]

yo what was the website/spreadsheet where you could calculate max bid for an action?

[crisp turtle]

for an even split, its like 70% of market price in 4man, and 80% in 8man

71.25% and 83.12% if you wanna be more specific

[fiery zinc]

can u do p3 argos at 1385

[crisp turtle]

technically, yes. but you won't do any damage to it. majority of your hits won't go through

[buoyant herald]

can enter cant do dps 😄

[opaque ore]

Should I be buying the valtan vykas boxes gate 3 after I have my gear conversion? IE is it still worth it?

[buoyant herald]

idk if it s worth but im taking it for the fused leaps some mats gamba on accs

only on main tho alts can eat shit

[pseudo atlas]

you can use the sheet linked above for relative cost of mats on the market

[placid cliff]

Should i be looking for accessories with perfect stats and engravings at 1370 already or is it wasted?

[buoyant herald]

1 good engraging and good stat

• a 6 6 stone so you can have 3x3
  if you want it to last longer go for 4x3

correct stats is really important

[faint lark]

I heard you can buy the providence set (first set from chaos dungeon) does anyone know where?

[buoyant herald]

marketplace

[glossy lintel]

Hey yall, that tripod saving strat isnt locked by class right?
so for e.g if i save removed skill from destroyer i can use the charm thingy for arti skill once the patch hit

[mellow mauve]

it's locked by class and character

[faint lark]

How do you use the stone fragments from chaos dungeons?

[tough spoke]

there's a vendor close by the entrance that sells stuff for the tokens

[faint lark]

ohh I see it

Also I thought you can only enter chaos dungeon twice but what is this

[rigid plank]

Basically infinite entry but barely any rewards and gives you currency to turn in for mats

[faint lark]

Ohh so you can't get the item sets like providence?

[rigid plank]

Yeah the daily 2 entry gives the mats normally like mats, gear, accessories but after that it gives you orbs to trade out in a vendor

[frail jungle]

Is there any chart or something anywhere where I can see how much gold each raid gives?

[late jay]

google gold planner

[frail jungle]

Thx

[rare vector]

NPC: I shall pay you handsomely for this!
Reward: 5 silver and some belly button lint.

[faint lark]

are there actually any difference between the belief and resolve except the name lol

[warm jacinth]

how many chars a day can I do the Blooming Mokokos on?

[rare vector]

I think it's a relic from when they were unique equipped?

[crisp turtle]

one

they changed that a while ago, you can now equip two items with the same name

[warm jacinth]

my mistake, sorry

[crisp turtle]

no difference at all. you used to be unable to wear two accessories with the same name. but now you can, so theres literally no difference between the two

[faint lark]

ohh alr thx

[vivid stirrup]

does anyone know the name of the set for chaos dungeons?

[uneven robin]

betrayal

[charred sorrel]

what's the max tier points you can get per week for pvp?

[vivid stirrup]

thanks! do you know if i do gear set conversion will i lose my gear/have to remake it?

[wraith steppe]

for the 7th giant heart do you have the do the tooki island 30 times??!!

[pseudo atlas]

the rep reward? yeah

[uneven robin]

no u can convert back

[faint lark]

In my entire playthrough up to 50 I have never seen a player with a different type of name from this

[pseudo atlas]

you have to do it 30 times on different days, not just 30 times

[wraith steppe]

[uneven robin]

cuz barely any real ppl do 1-50 main storyline anymore, everyones at t3

[wraith steppe]

for Field Boss Tarsila is the droprate for the giants heart high or low

[uneven robin]

really high apparently, everyone i heard get it on first try

[wraith steppe]

thank god

[uneven robin]

u will need to use up ur daliy field boss attempt to get it tho

[crisp turtle]

use una instant completes

[wraith steppe]

OHhh yeaaa

[pseudo atlas]

you can, still takes 30 days of the daily though

[rare vector]

Well, crud. I lost my crystal benefactor aura and lost my Rohendel Bifrost. derp

[faint lark]

Do you get anything good in field bosses? Idk what their purpose are

[rigid plank]

Just for more mats mostly and at a chance for good books, that's it

[late jay]

giant heart, omnium star, skill runes

[strange ore]

anyone having problems with the roster tab? whenever I open it (press O) the game just got stuttered. Close it and everything s back to normal

[pine oasis]

how do you lock gear?

[pseudo atlas]

ctrl right click to open item menu

[frail tartan]

so can i PP a character for Scouter but not choose the class in trixion? heard ppl say you can do this

[late jay]

yes

[faint lark]

Where can you buy chaos shards with silver?

[pseudo atlas]

they said the punika powerpass will expire before scouter release regardless of if you do that, nobody knows exactly if the same would work for paid ones

[pseudo atlas]

general merchants, search for them on the map in any major city

[faint lark]

oo alr thx

I didn't know gold existed in this game lol, these are the currency used in trading right? How do you your first gold without paying real cash?

[pseudo atlas]

probably from the vern abyss dungeon weekly or once a day from the new event

[shrewd pollen]

I am very confused, I am lvl 50?

[queen willow]

You haven't done the quest

[pseudo atlas]

yes? the part that you haven't fulfilled is in red

[shrewd pollen]

Oh

I thought that was just telling me that lvl 50 was the qualifications lol

Thx

[crude tangle]

do you need legendary engravings for 4x3

[marble sand]

#info-dump message

[pseudo atlas]

no, unless you're trying to do it at 1370 with a horrible ability stone

it's 6/6 minimum for 4x3 with leg accs, and even lower for relic accs

[maiden locust]

No

[crude tangle]

ah kk ty

is it worth trying to get 4x3 at 1370 then. Or am i just wasting pheons

[queen willow]

3x3 1370, 4x3 1415

or if it's an alt that you are pushing lazily just never gear and take busses in argos/oreha and skip yoho entirely, then 4x3 at 1415

[crude tangle]

kk

[queen willow]

but 4x3 at 1415 is mega cheap and will perform better (relic accs give significantly more mainstat) and the stones are easier to cut, so there's really no reason to bother at 1370 given how fast you can push nowadays

Plus unless your stone is the absolute bare minimum you can squeeze in a 4x3+1 for free

[wispy portal]

how far into the story should i go until trying to do endgame content? i just finished north vern

[queen willow]

you can start doing chaos dungeons now if you want. You could try soloing guardians but probably nobody is matchmaking

You can do challenge guardians and event guardians now if you want, no downside. Same with challenge abyssals etc.

You need to hit T3 (and 1370+) to do the main raids/dungeons that everyone is doing, though, so your focus would be best spent on getting there. That being said, it's of course a balance between playing optimally and doing what you find the most fun 🙂

[robust yoke]

is anyone available to help do two runs of Flame Fox

[uneven robin]

could ask in area chat

[rose jewel]

or create a party in party finder

[robust yoke]

i dont think any player worth their salt is sitting afk in North Vern but i'll try

[rose jewel]

north vern is the new punika

[robust yoke]

really?

[rose jewel]

same continent as "South" vern, which is t3 as well, and where people go hunt the field boss which name i forgot

thunderwings, anyway create the party and tell me the name

im free for some mins

[robust yoke]

i managed to get some

random person
and i pray itll be ok

[fierce hill]

For realm of elements boss room mokoko seed, maxroll says trigger two cut scene then kill boss

Is the 2nd cut scene where two pets will come out and fight along with me? Then I can kill him?

[lusty plume]

how do most people progress after 1415 as far as alts go? It looks like the next research is at 1460, so should I just keep all of my alts at 1370 while waiting for my main to get to 1460 for the research, or do most people push alts through even without it? cause I think I will end up with extra upgrade books that will expire before I get my main to 1460 (currently debating how to push up to 1415 on my main within the next week, so it will probably be a while before 1460)

[queen willow]

definitely at minimum use the books if they're gonna expire

your best bet is to push one or two pieces to like +17: the honing research only applies as far as +15 so that way you're only losing out on a bit of savings

What ilvl is your main?

[rose jewel]

main 1460 to save on a lot of resources, then alts can go all the way to 1430, its 3300 more gold weekly

[lusty plume]

1402.5. My weapon is level 15, armor level 12 I believe. I'm sitting on 25 20% books and 26 10% books, and enough mats to push through, I just don't know if I should try to ration them for an alt or just push through

[rose jewel]

push main asap

[queen willow]

Use your books on your main

Use your weapon books on alts if they're gonna expire

Focus on getting main to 1430 though

[rose jewel]

main is 1460 tho, for the research

[lusty plume]

so it sounds like Valtan gear doesn't reset my level then?

[rose jewel]

alts can park at 1370 for the time being, injecting mats to main

we wont get any reset until brel

[lusty plume]

gotcha

[rose jewel]

that's like, many months from now, clown is yet to come

[queen willow]

It doesn't.

For main, I think after 1430 you can hone alts if you want, or push main to 1460 for the research. The distinction is less important at that point.

But you should at minimum prioritize honing main up to +15 all with books before spending them on alts, and getting main to 1430 so you can start getting xp in both legion raids

[rose jewel]

he has like 1 more month to spend the 20% books tho iirc, yeah main to 30 sounds good and all but i better push to 60, use books on the alt you wanna push first before they expire

after main is all +15 ofc

[shrewd pollen]

Do hard mode dungeons give more xp?

[lusty plume]

Yeah, that sounds like what I will do then, thanks. I'll see how far I can get my main, and use the books like a week or two before they expire

regardless of where I'm at

[lusty plume]

your main source of xp is from quests, you shouldn't be grinding dungeons regardless. I guess it might make sense to give a little more xp, but the difference is so small you won't even notice it

[shrewd pollen]

I'm just seeing for the story mode dungeons

[fierce hill]

Boss rush and cubes give a lot of exp, also chaos dungeon

[rose jewel]

just do normal, come back to beat hard when you wanna complete ignea tokens

[lusty plume]

like I said, story mode dungeons you literally won't notice a difference. Unless you are doing it for the adventure tome, just do normal

[fierce hill]

I would prob push main to 1415 at least before reset if u have enough mats, valtan is a decent gold source. Do oreha hard before hitting though or ur lose it

[hollow thistle]

why i login and they send me to south america server ? and i cant select other region ...

[rose jewel]

repair game files, some wizardy is going on

[hollow thistle]

thx i will try. this so frustrating the game getting worse and worse

[rose jewel]

its not, some people get unlucky but most are fine, yeah i know its stupid sometimes but well, nothing is perfect

[frigid flare]

When i'm farming Island of Yearning soul in a party and a bag drops on my location, do i have to call it so the other member comes to me and takes the bag?

[hollow thistle]

after verify i can select my region but i got "The region is close and cant be selected" message... omg

[icy shard]

Anyone know the best wandering merchant site?

[rose jewel]

keep trying until you can, not much to do but that

[grave current]

Is this mokokoko world quest optional? It seems really long

[short creek]

is there a way to disable the mokoko finding event notif appearing on the screen?

[pseudo atlas]

no

[next canyon]

I thought weapon quality doesn't affect support buffs. am I wrong?

[short creek]

o ok thnks

[next canyon]

I saw someone post on fb about recrafting his Pala wep 4 times to get high weapon quality. Nobody in the comments mentioned anything abt it

[pseudo atlas]

weapon quality adds bonus damage so it shouldn't affect support buffs at all because those scale off attack power

[rose jewel]

however, iirc, things like cursed doll and such dont affect the buffs as well

[next canyon]

Only honing level right?

[rose jewel]

natural attack power, armors give STR, so yeah pty much, except weapon as mentioned before since it gives extra dmg, not extra atk

[brittle tulip]

Do event guardian give more coins on weekend?

[stark otter]

if I hit 9/6 on a rock anyone know how many non 5/3 accessories I can buy? to hit 5x3

[rose jewel]

info dump has a pic with numbers

#info-dump

[pseudo atlas]

just set up a 5x3 with all 5/3 accs then you can figure it out from how much excess there is

[rose grove]

When pay for Argos bus by mail, are you supposed to pay a little extra to cover the mail fee?

[pseudo atlas]

no

[faint lark]

I'm new to guardian raid I think I killed ur'nil since he disappeard what do I do now?

nvm he moved away

That took forever to solo

[maiden locust]

later guardians you can try finding a group in the party finder

[faint lark]

The region is close and cant be selected wow

[onyx badger]

Just finished the Punika storyline but i didnt get the powerpass? why?

[pseudo atlas]

it's not from finishing punika, it's from finishing a sidequest that unlocks after finishing punika

[onyx badger]

What sidequest?

[pseudo atlas]

https://lostarkcodex.com/us/quest/1201141/
end of a big quest chain

[onyx badger]

Oh ok thx

[pseudo atlas]

mostly busywork and walking around

[rose jewel]

quest is boringgggg

[undone pine]

what's happening in-game right now? why is that EAC connection error still messing around while in the middle of the fight?

[faint lark]

same

[rose jewel]

guess its a EUC problem? i dont have any issue whatsoever

[maiden locust]

I don't have any issues on EUC tbh

[snow wadi]

Respawn time~~Spawnrate ~~of Tooki in Rohendel?

[rose jewel]

rate? 100%

[snow wadi]

You kinda mean

[rose jewel]

if you go and kill 1 and tripod to the next, its like 20-30sec cd

i mean, i answered the initial question :/

[hushed sleet]

how much tax for both market place and auction house?

[rose jewel]

5%, if it doesnt seel you get all returned

[onyx badger]

Ok now that i have the pwoerpass, how do i decide what class to make my alt? do i just try all classes and see which i like most?

[maiden locust]

pretty much - also worth shopping around to see gameplay videos

[pseudo atlas]

there are some video resources in #guides-and-info

[onyx badger]

K ty

[pseudo atlas]

doesn't really get better than that because the in game class tester is garbage

[solar elm]

so I have to get her to friendly 1 first right? and then dump like 25 legendary rapport gifts on her

[maiden locust]

some classes also feel very awkward to play for some people, worth to do your research

[pseudo atlas]

actually these video lists only show one build for the endgame videos so that's not ideal either, gonna have to do some searching

[solar elm]

35k rapport needed to hit friendly 1 from where im at

then from there I have to bomb with 2x rapport gifts

[pseudo atlas]

i mean the images you linked say everything

[wanton plume]

what day does weekly reset happens

[pseudo atlas]

fairly detailed too

except you don't have 25 legendary gifts of anything so you need to go higher or find 3+ more fargar's beers

[solar elm]

dont forget to push up your glasses too

[solar elm]

yea will have to get more

[pseudo atlas]

wednesday

[graceful kettle]

Noob question, how many field boss and adventure island i can do a day?

[low trail]

1 field boss per day for loot and 1 adventure island on weekdays, 2 on the weekend

[graceful kettle]

Awesome thanks

[tranquil cosmos]

Does lucky mokoko have any distinct appearance or rngesus just hates me?

[grave current]

while sailing do i use my drag net?

[trail hawk]

drag net is for cleaning oil event and such, you dont need it for normal sailing

[grave current]

oh i thought i could get some rares

[cosmic wagon]

Hi, is there a reliable and easy to use guide for stone cutting? One where you input your choices and it tells you what to cut next

[pseudo atlas]

several, just google ability stone calculator or something along those lines

[cosmic wagon]

okay

[spring heath]

when i buy crystals it says %10 for example is %10 included in 2200 crystals? or do i get %10 more on top of 2200 crystals?

[flat dagger]

You get what's in the pack, the +10% more value probably refers to cost per crystal.

[dusty hare]

Is igniter,aot, hit-master,cursed doll and precise dagger a good build? in most guides i see grudge instead of cursed doll or precise dagger but i'm far away from being able to afford it

[flat dagger]

#sorceress

[rain thistle]

is an eyepatch or bandana covering one eye coming in the future ?

[grave current]

u wanna be a pirate

[real radish]

Is it worth selling tradable t3 mats for profit or should I just feed it to my main to push to 1430?

[limpid obsidian]

Push 1460 before selling them off

[trail hawk]

sell while they have value

[torn coral]

At higher level you can remove PD in favor of grudge or KBW cuz you have cc from stats, gear

[quartz grotto]

are stone of chaos from thunderwing guaranteed? Sometimes I get so little loot, im 1475.

[sleek vale]

are we supposed to be getting the two near hairstyles after this upcoming reset?

is the september part 1 update from road map supposed to be coming next week or is it the week after

[kindred pike]

why cant i launch lost ark

[icy shuttle]

Ah just to confirm, relic rapport always only give 10k rapport?

[inner wing]

Encavian Crown 5k when given to female npc
Crystal Necklace 5k when given to male npc

[icy shuttle]

So max is 10k then?

[inner wing]

Yes

[cosmic wagon]

Can I see somewhere the relic set effects at level 2?

[subtle shadow]

anyone knows how to fix this ? last week was working fine now i can't buy royals

[low torrent]

[cloud pendant]

Hello. Can someone tell me at what ilvl I get to upgrade honing for alts T3?

The increase honing chance

[marble sand]

1460

[torn kraken]

hey guys, is 1380 enough for an alt?

[maiden locust]

sure

[sage fern]

1302-1370 buff is at 1385 and the 1370-1415 buff is at 1460

[maiden locust]

most people stop at 1370 with alts

[sage fern]

At least get it to 1385, 1380 is a weird place for an alt

[maiden locust]

true

[torn kraken]

how steep is it to level my main to 1460?

[tulip copper]

Are there any wtb-wts channels here or in any other lost ark discord you guys know of?

[tulip copper]

Very steep since the game is rigged

[maiden locust]

whats your main right now?

[torn kraken]

rigged, how?

[sage fern]

At least until you get 1460

[torn kraken]

im 1415 now

[sage fern]

Dont hone alt beyond 1370 yet

[maiden locust]

with a couple 1370 alts it will take a couple weeks

[tulip copper]

I mean i got pity on my 10% chance armor twice which means like i coulnt hit 10% 50 times in a row

[torn kraken]

in september i will level a scouter to 1385 then i have 3 chars, 1 main 2 alt

[maiden locust]

50 times for pity?

[tulip copper]

2 armors

[maiden locust]

ahh

[tulip copper]

In a row

[maiden locust]

it wil take a while to get to 1460 then

[edgy pike]

why i cant log into my region?

[tulip copper]

But i honed my weapon from 16 to 19 in 5 taps so the game is rigged when i feel like it lol

[sage fern]

I suggest using kt on some chars and either kt all the way or skip rohendel and feiton and do yorn and punika manually

[torn kraken]

i have no idea what chars are cheap and easy to maintain/level as an alt

[tulip copper]

Shadowhunter for sure

[torn kraken]

got that haha

[sage fern]

Yeah shadowhunter is cheap only needs two gems

[maiden locust]

make more shadowhunters then

[tulip copper]

And assassins got the best ass so the expansiveness doesnt matter if you got the thickest ass

[maiden locust]

just use the same gems as your other one

[torn kraken]

chars have different asses? hahaha

[sage fern]

Yeah ass and booba matters a lot in this game

[torn kraken]

what about making a bard for support? or will that cost me too much?

[maiden locust]

sure

[tulip copper]

Supports are going extinct each day so you would help the community a lot by doing that

[torn kraken]

and cost wise?

[maiden locust]

support accs are expensive but you only need 3x3 for most content in the game

you can do hard mode vykas with 3x3

[torn kraken]

Hold that thought, my wife needs me. bbl

[tulip copper]

I dont have support char so idk but you dont need that much investment. It comes to a point where people may accept a suppror with shit gear

Since its better than waiting half an hour for a better one to show up

[maiden locust]

true

[zinc garden]

What are the best ways to get gold ?

Other than selling stuff on the market of course

[inner wing]

Royal crystals, Una's tasks, Masterpieces, Adv islands, Chaos dungeons (gold'portal)

[tulip copper]

Raids dungeons and una weekly gold

[zinc garden]

Where is that una weekly gold ? O.o

[inner wing]

Una's tasks menu and Gold shop NPC

[swift laurel]

Does anyone know how long it takes for the "Complete Now" limit to refresh in your stronghold?

Is it daily or weekly?

[dapper raptor]

hello, wanna ask about Knowledge Transfer feature...
so basically i transferred Rohendel area to a character but i actually wondered if it was possible to transfer all the way to Yorn/etc
because after the complete Rohendel knowledge transfer I saw that it still costs 1,400 for Yorn knowledge; actually thought it would cost less
so my question is should one just transfer straight to the intended region or does it work in such a way that you have to transfer region by region ?
thanks in advance!

[slim beacon]

when u do knowledge transfer, u'll have to hone to a certain level in order to be able to unlock the next knowledge transfer

[torn kraken]

black, so lets say i level a bard, thats support. Will i be able to do chaos dungeons and all that other content (because of lack of dps).

[maiden locust]

yeah bard is actually pretty good in chaos

[slim beacon]

I do main a bard, and turst me its easier for me to do chaos than doing it with sorc haha

[torn kraken]

you just switch skills ?

[slim beacon]

yeah just use chaos dungeon skills in maxroll

[maiden locust]

and preemtive strike

[torn kraken]

Im just overthinking this, i would need a bard thats endgame level aswell 1415+ pref. 1445 for Vykas

[dapper raptor]

hmm then let's say i bring up an alt straight to ilvl 600 first, if i try to knowledge transfer will it let me transfer Yorn region? i.e. i can skip Rohendel knowledge transfer

[slim beacon]

normally people to knowledge transfer to 302 then hone to 600 then knowledge transfer to yorn you quest there then hone to 960 then knowledge feiton

there u'll be 1100 do quest punika

[maiden locust]

vykas is 1430

[torn kraken]

but you catch my idea

[maiden locust]

yeah

[slim beacon]

im wondering about something, what's the best 2 among these : grudge cursed doll adrenaline keen blunt weapon

[dapper raptor]

ok thx got it, cos i just saw the cost of the transfer doesn't change after gaining further regions' knowledge... guess is a lesson learned :p

[maiden locust]

you will need more higher lvl alts anyway to make more gold

[brave plinth]

Guys i have a question about the PowerPass.
i used it on my alt (and i have completed all the quests) but now i read that i can "swap" it to another char, what that means?
Can i se it for boost another char. without lost my progression on the previus alt?

[torn kraken]

im seriously overthinking it Bard or Shadow

[pseudo atlas]

you cannot knowledge transfer without finishing the continent before it, so no you can't do this

[slim beacon]

im wondering about something, what's the best 2 among these : grudge cursed doll adrenaline keen blunt weapon

[maiden locust]

bard

[dapper raptor]

ah that settles it then, thanks!

[torn kraken]

hmmm

[fervent whale]

depends on your build. Grudge is the best overall damage engraving for DPSs since it adds damage as its own multiplier. Adrenaline is the best engraving at level 1 or 2, and is great at adding both damage and crit at level 3 if your class needs it. Cursed doll is good, but can be switched out with Mass Increase or Raid Captain if your build has high attack/movement speed, depending on your build

also, Adrenaline also needs to be kept up with ability casts, so take that into consideration as well

[slim beacon]

lets suppose its for bard

[fervent whale]

uh, is this a dps bard for raids?

[slim beacon]

Yes

for fun haha

[fervent whale]

no idea, you can probably ask the bard channel. Usually playing a dps build on a support class is considered trolling, so you might get hate from PUGs

[brave plinth]

Guys i have a question about the PowerPass.

[pseudo atlas]

there's nothing that allows you to swap any character progress, not sure where you heard this

[fervent whale]

you can only transfer the express pass to another character, not a powerpass

[torn kraken]

Is there any gear that can be shared/exchanged between bard and sorc?

[maiden locust]

nope

[fervent whale]

only roster-bound mage skins

[torn kraken]

hmmm, im affraid im going to have to disappoint you @maiden locust

[limpid obsidian]

Express Event*

[pseudo atlas]

only thing you could even share between a dps bard and sorc would be engravings

[torn kraken]

yeah, but probably not that much because i would be playing support...u suppose those are different engravings

[brave plinth]

ye expresspass sry my bad

That's what i'm talking about, how it exactly works?

[pseudo atlas]

doesn't do anything if you change now

[brave plinth]

ok. thx for the info

[onyx badger]

Ok so weird thing happened, i chose to have my 1st alt as gunslinger but instead its now my new main cause i find it more fun than shadowhunter, altough theres one problem, all battle items are on the shadowhunter and they are bound, where do i get flares and stuff?

[limpid obsidian]

Roster-bound Grenade/Potion/Utility chests are rewarded as login bonuses fairly regularly.
Aside from that your only option is crafting them in your Stronghold or buying them off the market.

[onyx badger]

oh ok

[errant rock]

I am a beginner lvl 21 now, what should i do with all the gear i dont use anymore?

[fair mantle]

Dismantle

[errant rock]

Alright ty!

[shy yarrow]

can sell it for a small amount of silver or just destroy by tossing outside inventory

but you wont ever need it again, same with ability stones and lower level pots

[faint lark]

The only differences between the echo levels is that you get better accessories and accessories only?

[maiden locust]

you also get more drops in general

[faint lark]

Ohh, I was wondering why I don't see any difference between the level 1 providence set and the level 2 echo providence set

I thought the stats would be better the higher the echo level

[maiden locust]

there is no difference, it's T1 gear - how progression works in this game is you use different base level gear that you hone up to +x, then transfer it over to your next tier gear

so you will hone your T1 providence set to +15, then transfer it to your T2 set you get from T2 chaos dungeons

[faint lark]

Oh, so rn I should just focus on honing my gear till the next chaos dungeon o alr

[maiden locust]

pretty much mate

[vocal flower]

if ur t1 just hone as high as u can

ur odds r 100% to succeed and ull get to next tier in no time

if u need help in where to get those last few mats from, i can always help u out

[maiden locust]

im 1415 with my sorc and have been playing igniter up until then. i really love the igniter playstyle because it seems so high risk and high reward, but was wondering if reflux casting / piano or swiftness igniter would be viable?

there is such an abundance of T1 and T2 mats you can get just by doing island quests you should fly through the early levels

[faint lark]

Also is it fine to join those bots with raids?

[vocal flower]

its only viable at 1445 when u can craft the nightmare relic set to help u with CDR and mana issues

[maiden locust]

they only sell gold

[vocal flower]

solo them or skip guardian raids entirely

[maiden locust]

i can craft nightmare

[vocal flower]

i pmd u earlier btw 😄 @faint lark

[vocal flower]

ur 1415, u cant craft relic armor until 1445

[faint lark]

Oh I just saw it now

[vocal flower]

igniter is stronger in general, keep igniter

[maiden locust]

i mean, ive been doing valtan on 1415 for a month now can p much push to 1445 whenever

just thinking of speccing the build out first

[vocal flower]

then push it! no reason to hoard mats at all, unless its ur alt or smth

[maiden locust]

yep i will

[vocal flower]

if u alrdy have igniter build, no reason to swap to a weaker version unless ur curious about the playstyle, but the amount of pheons ull have to spend etc is totally not worth the curiosity imo

[maiden locust]

just deciding whether to keep igniter or not, been seeing some stuff about swiftness igniter that could help with her ungodly casting speeds

[vocal flower]

if u have crit spec neck, all u need is lvl 8 cd gem on doomsday to have double doomsday in 1 igniter

itll be tight, but thats when ur power spikes a lot alongside the nightmare relic set making u do more dmg overall

[maiden locust]

alright, what about the traditional crit spec igniter vs swiftness crit igniter?

[vocal flower]

stick to spec crit

[faint lark]

What do I do with broken equipment powders? Do I just sell them or is there any better use for them

[thin token]

tresh

[maiden locust]

anything with the junk icon - vendor trash

[cloud pendant]

Is there valtan bus already?

[faint lark]

o

[maiden locust]

what do you mean?

[cloud pendant]

I mean are there people doing valtan bus given valtan is quite new?

Or maybe I’m just outdated.

[maiden locust]

mate there are deathless inferno valtan buses already

[fair mantle]

Valtan is definitely not new

[cloud pendant]

I see

[astral python]

whats up this this scam? i havent claimed anything

[shy yarrow]

yes its a scam, they give you 15 pheons so you can buy another rock to cut 4/5

[astral python]

😁

[shy yarrow]

tbh i think its just additional checkin rewards for the weekend

[dusky sigil]

[shy yarrow]

but i just normally claim and forget about it, so thats likely what you did

[silver rain]

go page 2 that one is yesterday's fever time

[astral python]

Yesterdays?? Oh... Ur profile pic is fitting 😅

[silver rain]

if you didnt claim yesterday reward before reset then you've missed it

[faint lark]

Are these abyssal dungeons supposed to be harder than guardian raids?

[shy yarrow]

yes and no, some of them are braindead easy

others are tricky but very easy after a few clears

[faint lark]

Or maybe its just that specific white lion boss that makes it really hard for me

[shy yarrow]

gunna have to be a little more specific than that

[faint lark]

It's lumerus the second t1 guardian boss

[queen willow]

the vern abyssals aren't bad, all the later ones get a lot more difficult

[shy yarrow]

oh him, hes simple enough, stay behind him and youre good

[sullen lark]

Guys, cana I just hone to t3 and do punika storyline without doing any other storyline?

[whole panther]

the virtue points that you get from alt, does that apply to all of your characters?

[wintry mauve]

Do cool down reduction tripods apply before or after gem cooldowns?

[shy yarrow]

virtues are rosterwide

[shy yarrow]

not unless you knowledge transfer, or powerpass

[queen willow]

you need to do yorn for gems and north vern no matter what but you can skip rohendel and feiton

[faint lark]

Is there a way to make matchmaking faster? I've been here 10 minutes now and it's still 2/4

[sullen lark]

Darn but I cant just use yorn knowledge transfer without doing the ones before it right?

[pliant pivot]

if u do feiton then kt punika it will unlock gems not sure if this will work if you do punika story manually

[sullen lark]

Can you kt feiton on a character without doing the previous storylines though?

[sullen lark]

Just create your own group

[pliant pivot]

no gotta do yorn to kt feiton

[sullen lark]

Kk but if I dont do rohendel storyline I cant it yorn right? I guess I'll just spend the gold and it them all lol

[pliant pivot]

get your alt to 1100 do feiton story then kt punika

[maiden locust]

what are you match making?

[sullen lark]

Ok awesome. Thanks

[pliant pivot]

you'll be able to skip yorn and rohendel and gems do get unlocked

[sullen lark]

Awesome news! Thanks!

It's so nice leveling toons to 1370 now.

[faint lark]

abyss for weekly

[maiden locust]

which one?

[sullen lark]

I bet t1 or t2

[maiden locust]

yeah

[faint lark]

The first one

[sullen lark]

Is this your first character? Or do you have higher level characters?

[faint lark]

First I started 2 days ago

[sullen lark]

Gotcha. Have you done t1 islands yet?

[shy yarrow]

pro tip, t1 and 2 are now completely dead content, you will likely never be able to do either of them again because powerpasses exist

[faint lark]

Also, wtf can you have 2 class engravings?

[maiden locust]

do people usually buy the chest on abyss dungeons

[shy yarrow]

in t1 and 2 it made ez sense, but not really for t3 ones tbh

[faint lark]

I only finished up until the questline of shushire I need 460 for next continent

[maiden locust]

only oreha hard

[sullen lark]

Well for t3 I usually buy the first to get the chosen weapon while you work on 5 piece argos

[maiden locust]

ok thx u im still t2

[limpid obsidian]

Yes. Always buy all chests except Oreha Normal mode (Oreha is i1340+).

[sullen lark]

Seems you can do islands now right and just hone out of t1?

[old bane]

are the sentiment skins dyable? the ones u buy with providence stones

[torn kraken]

does 1445 mean everything on 18+?

[pliant pivot]

17

[torn kraken]

all on 17 mmmmm

[pliant pivot]

18 is 1460

[torn kraken]

that should be doable

[pliant pivot]

if rng doesnt fuck you

[faint lark]

Can you have 2 class engravings active at once?

[torn kraken]

no, dont think so

[thin token]

some classes use double class engraving i think

[pliant pivot]

depends on the class

[torn kraken]

for sorceress thats impossible because it fucks with that gauge i think

[faint lark]

For shadowhunter? I'm using demonic impulse and 1 point away from level perfect suppression oh wait it disables demonize

[torn kraken]

Im not sure tbh.

[pliant pivot]

artillerist can use both so can sharpshooter
shadowhunter cant glav cant either

[torn kraken]

Guys if i want to buy those stone of chaos' can i just buy 8 at once? or is it timegated?

[maiden locust]

you can buy the 500 ones only a certain amount per week but the 1k ones unlimited

the 500 stones get 100 gold more expensive every 2 you buy

[pliant pivot]

you can buy them at a discount starting from 500 up to 900

[torn kraken]

hmmm, this game. Ok, i better get my ass to 1445

Does it take me (on average) 10 weeks to get the nightmare set complete?

[pliant pivot]

pretty big damage spike when you get to 1445

[torn kraken]

regarding rng?

[maiden locust]

no rng involved with legion commander drops

[torn kraken]

They always drop the same?

[maiden locust]

yes

[pliant pivot]

you need 45 valtan drops and 40 vykas drops assuming you buy the chest from all gates you'll get 12 each per week so it will take you 4 weeks

[maiden locust]

doing normal or hard?

you only get 12 each week if you do HM

[pliant pivot]

hard

[torn kraken]

i thought 30 vykas drops, is what i calculated

[maiden locust]

6 each week

[pliant pivot]

o yeah it's 30 mb

[torn kraken]

ya, i just do normal at first

[pliant pivot]

how much do you have rn?

[torn kraken]

shit i would have to go back, i think 5 bones

[pliant pivot]

it will take you 4 weeks for valtan drops and 5 weeks for vykas drops to complete the nm set

[torn kraken]

can you do vikas and valtan both once a week?

[pliant pivot]

yes

[maiden locust]

yeah

[torn kraken]

so i could be done in 5 weeks, if i can mesh ehm up

[maiden locust]

yes

[torn kraken]

hmmmm ok....

[maiden locust]

probably better to get to 1445 and make the relic set

[torn kraken]

yes, but i dont wanna swipe

i saved up 50k gold

[maiden locust]

you dont have to swipe lol

[torn kraken]

its the mats that worry me, it's gonna cost me

[maiden locust]

you dont have to get it now

[tropic steppe]

No point in rushing, take your time

[torn kraken]

We're out for Italian tonight, thanks for being so helpful (and talkative) people, cheers!

[maiden locust]

have fun

[torn kraken]

I really dig the vibe of the LAO community

[tropic steppe]

You must be new then

[torn kraken]

heh, i wont try to jinx it

[tropic steppe]

People on here are fine, I'm just kidding

[thin token]

lol wait until u get to raiding with PUGs xD some ppl can be toxic

[sick thunder]

i suggest making learning parties for less toxicity

[tropic steppe]

I just kick them

[shrewd pollen]

What does powerpass do?

[tropic steppe]

While making a learning party sounds like a good idea, it takes ages for it to fill

[pliant pivot]

boost your character up to a certain ilvl and completes the story up to the ilvl

[round sorrel]

speedruns you to level 50 and an ilvl bracket depending on which one you get

[lapis moth]

do all the site maps have a chance to give the expert/master craft kit?

[sick thunder]

well its better then malding someone else is toxic because reclear and noone knows anything

[tropic steppe]

It completes the main story up to a certain point, giving you a certain item level too

[barren fjord]

Hola! I've just came back to the game after a pretty long break. I've managed to get my character to 1390, but now im stuck on how to get gold ? Ive done all my raids

[shrewd pollen]

Oh.......so I could just done that instead of grinding to lvl 50 :'D

[sick thunder]

its way more fun in learning parties for the first time anyway

[limpid obsidian]

I don't think so.
But hover over them to check. They can say "Cannot be dyed".

[round sorrel]

you do the same things but on alts. if you don't have anyone, you're pretty much out of luck

[barren fjord]

I have two alts but there around 1000 GS :/

[thin token]

there is a current on-going makoko event that happens every 2hrs u can do it once per day and if u have good RNG u can get like 5k+ gold from it lol

[maiden locust]

how long does it take to get full yearning set if i only do normal valtan and vykas

[sick thunder]

sell leapstones for a bit of gold

[tropic steppe]

Push alts for more raids, use your work energy thingy to get mats and craft/sell pots and battle items, right now theres the blooming mokoko event which you can do every day in maharaka island which gives you gold when you do it

[round sorrel]

mokoko event gives you a chance for 5k gold, selling mats, abyss dungeons are other things you can do

etc

[barren fjord]

Whats it called and how do I do it

[round sorrel]

blooming mokokos

[tropic steppe]

Also some of the daily adventure island gives gold sometimes. You can also sell materials for gold.

[thin token]

blooming makokos event on the makoko paradise island

[barren fjord]

Worth just leaving an alt over there to hop on when it comes up ?

[thin token]

each week u only get 6 bones and 6 wings

[tropic steppe]

It takes like 3mins, yeah

you can only do it once a day per account tho

[maiden locust]

so like 6 weeks?

[limpid obsidian]

Yes-ish. You can only do one per day, so as long as your alt doesn't need to move.

[barren fjord]

Cheers guys ❤️

[sick thunder]

i suggest going for valtan hard you need 1445 to craft the set anyway

[limpid obsidian]

You need 40 wings. 40/6 = ~7

[maiden locust]

ok

[limpid obsidian]

Is there an upgrade to Slime Island drops above 1430? I can't remember
1460 maybe?

[silver rain]

someone mentioned 1475 for all relic drop for capture events

[limpid obsidian]

Guess I'll try on main and see what I get. Kinda don't wanna do PvP on main tho ;(

[steady notch]

anyone knows how many pet energy i need to reach 100k expertise?

nvm i thin ki found it : 55 expertise per production, and it eats 300 moral :
need 1818 interactions : 545 400 energy needed

[shrewd pollen]

So will this vern powerpass I just got still boost my lvl even tho I'm lvl 50?

[maiden locust]

no its for alts

[shrewd pollen]

Ah

Can I give it too a friend?

[maiden locust]

nope

he will also get it when he reaches north vern

you get 2 vern passes and 1 punika pass

[pliant pivot]

your friend should buy the vern powerpass themselves it's worth getting

[shrewd pollen]

Damn ;-;

We are both broke at moment lol

[pliant pivot]

o rip

[shrewd pollen]

College is basically money vampires

[old bane]

is event guardian raid down?

[maiden locust]

you get 2 for free when you reach north vern

[maiden locust]

not for me

[maiden locust]

and you can knowledge transfer

[nimble lily]

anyone here in NA west have the tuleu stronghold merchant? i need the wealth runes pretty bad

[brave locust]

Hello guys im looking for a website where you can track Korea Auction house? Any help appreciated 🙂

[inner wing]

#kr-lost-ark-help

[brave locust]

ah thx mate

[shut hatch]

so...is noone running chaos dungeons anylonger? I am in Feiton, trying to get to 1100 and when I queue to do chaos dungeons, I can sit there for 15 min and not get a full 4 people to start...? whats up?

[eternal zenith]

ppl like to solo more

and most ppl are already at tier 3 so yeah

[sonic mountain]

Chaos dungeons are easily solo-able imo, I'm at the same point of progress as you

[shut hatch]

yeah...Im running an alt up..but...i was gone for the last month...and all of a sudden noone is queueing...just thought it was weird...the game feels very empty all of a sudden...lol

maybe they got rid of more bots...hahahahahahaha

[sonic mountain]

Idk they said everyone is at t3 alr so

[shut hatch]

some classes make soloing easier than others...support classes are not fun to solo with...

I find it hard to believe "everyone" is at t3...what about alts, what about newer players...just saying

[sonic mountain]

They power their alts using punika pass

To directly advance to t3

So I'm making my way to punika asap

[shut hatch]

yeah...I have some sitting...I still like to play a couple classes up...guess I am old school

[thorny parrot]

hello guys

what is the best use for rift pieces

[dusk veldt]

majority of chars is at t3 and majority of people solo chaos dungeons 🤷‍♂️

[eternal zenith]

also might be depend on what region you playing too

[narrow axle]

I've heard mentions about the sun miniboss in argos getting armour in the middle of the fight. Is this a thing and if so what's the effects and what causes it? Failed destruction check or low hp?

[inner wing]

What's your ilvl?

EUW player weeee

[eternal zenith]

you should ask that in your region general chat and Velganos isnt easy so

[inner wing]

Do Yoho, like everyone at your ilvl xd, Velganos is too hard

[shy chasm]

Velagnos is like 2 leaps over yoho iirc

Or smth like that

[light latch]

The cheapest way is 17/17/17/8/8/11. However, it will cost more to get to 1400 if you go that route. I prefer going 16/11/11/11/11/10 so I can get to Argos p3 faster and then going 17/17/13/12/12/11 for 1415. Eventually you'll get +17 all for Valtan hard mode, but that can wait. Prioritize what content is out right now.

Edit: you can upgrade whatever armor pieces you want. Usually gloves/shoulder priority for dps and chest/pants for support.
I've seen this comment on reddit about efficiently upgrading to 1415. Is this true and if yes why? I've always upgraded my items equally up until this point. Why is it better to stop some items at +11/+12 and go for +17 on weapon/gloves (especially why gloves)

[inner wing]

Gloves give more atk power than the other pieces excluding weapon

At +15 and beyond, each + gives more ilvl than before iirc

[distant river]

Does the Spring dream weapon skin is dyeable?

[peak wyvern]

I think it is, apart from the glow, saw it on forums

[distant river]

Oh ok thank you

[maiden locust]

is glaivier considered a braindead class

[rigid plank]

No, unless your standards on "braindead" is different

[maiden locust]

i feel like theres only 1 combo

[radiant token]

What are the means to get Pet Growth Tokens?

[blazing plover]

Has Roxx given more insight on the server merge mentioned in the last road map?

[hollow arch]

What's the best use for Rift Pieces ?

[sullen lark]

Hey guys, I thought they reinstated paid power passes. I cant seem to find them in the store.

[maiden locust]

they are in the character select screen

[eternal zenith]

easy to play but hard to master, it wont feel like 1 combo when you in a raid

[sage fern]

If you play control yes

Zero rotation except convic judg which is ez

Keyboard smash kinda like sh

[maiden locust]

maybe just not my class lol

[sullen lark]

Buy the box with the cookies

[radiant token]

@sullen larkSeems to be the only way huh? Thanks

[sullen lark]

Yeah as far as I know it's the only way. I could have missed something though

[sullen lark]

Hey guys, can all wingsuits be dyed? Theres the 3500 rc one that comes with the suit, weapon, and bike, then there eis the 2400 rc without the mount, and finally there is just the 2000 rc one with just the suit. They can all be dyed right?

[cloud sail]

how to facete ability stones?

[shy chasm]

Go to the ability stone vendor

[sonic reef]

I have 1 character and bought a power pass, my characters 1302 currently and I'm abit confused how to apply the punika power pass. Any help is appreciated

[shy chasm]

It's a blue diamond on the minimap

[cloud sail]

ok ty

should i continue world quests or help trixioon get new power?

[shy chasm]

Just do world quests

The trixion quest is for your second awakening iirc unless theres another quest on it

[cloud sail]

whats my second awakening?

and what is pheon for

[shy chasm]

Currency for buying accessories

But don't need to buy any till about 1370

[cloud sail]

1370 what?

[shy chasm]

Item level

[cloud sail]

dude im 300 lol

[shy chasm]

ye just get and much as you can and save

[cloud sail]

ok

[shy chasm]

Also if your 300ilvl the trixion quest inst for the awakening and I'm not sure can't remember

[cloud sail]

yea its just keeps asking me to help

[primal herald]

anyone know if KR got the new shadowhunter demon form yet? and does anyone know if we're getting it on global anytime soon?

[shy chasm]

Hmm search it up see what it's about

[harsh dawn]

for inferno, can you select tripod levels

[rigid plank]

Yes, they have it already, we don't know when we will get it tho

[cloud sail]

where is the fesnar highland buulletin board

[wary lintel]

if u don't do the second guild raid do u get penalty?

[sonic mountain]

There should be a purple guide quest teaching you how to do it

[cloud sail]

thx

[sonic reef]

hey quick question, I'm 1302 from the punika pass. What gear should I start farming to then hone to level up even further? 😄 thanks!

[solemn crane]

have the powerpasses been removed again?

Not sure if I just can't find them but I don't see them in the store

[mellow mauve]

they're back in the game

[inner wing]

Purple gear from punikan Chaos dungeons

[sonic reef]

thanks!

[solemn crane]

Ah I had to go to character selection and powerpass from there. I thought I had to go to the store to buy it.

[pine oasis]

is it possible to put a P.O. for lower item price?

[pallid peak]

hi, I got disconnected while doing my first valtan raid, and when I came back, it consumed my week entry and I didnt get any rewards, what should I do?

[silver rain]

wait ~48 hours they may refund entry but after 48h and still nothing then you're prolly fucked for the week

[versed harbor]

how much crit % is 40 crit stat

[pallid peak]

oh no, should I send an email?

[silver rain]

you can try but will likely to get automated response. waiting up to 48h is what they've been telling people to do for the refunded entry

[sonic reef]

yo just tried that one chaos dungeo and I do peanuts for damage. My item level is 260 lol

[inner wing]

Didn't.you receive 1302 ilvl gear? In a chest or something?

[inner wing]

There's no chest in your inventory? [i]
Or your mailbox

[sonic reef]

lmao omg thank you

I was organizing my inventory earlier and put in my storage chest

[latent arrow]

does any1 have merchant tuleu in their SH? :3

euc zinnervale

[languid mica]

is it best to spend all cookies on pet sitter chests at the start?

[near hound]

How do you have that skin

[mental timber]

Anyone know card drop rates? Trying to farm caspiel for the last card to max it out and I haven't gotten a drop in ~ 30 kills.

Had like 4 cards drop in ~ 15 kills

[patent fog]

hey, im level 43, i stopped playing the game months ago and havent really played since release. Is it honestly worth me getting back into lost Ark? would it be too hard to catch up to everyone else?

[mental timber]

I think the powerpass + hyper express pass are still up

So you'll hit 1370 pretty quickly

[tidal ingot]

hows the hyper thing work

[silver rain]

Personally yea unless you're aiming for skins. Your pet will likely hit 100k expertise before you have 30 growth tokens

[gleaming pasture]

If I still have a left over Platinum Founders Edition chest in my mail to claim am I able to wait until Summoner gets released on NA to claim it on that char?

[rigid plank]

As far as I know, Summoner may not have a plat skin

[gleaming pasture]

Guess I can hope

[mental timber]

Once you have a character at 1302, accept the hyper express. You'll get mats every time you hit the required ilevel up to 1370

[gleaming pasture]

Decided to reroll onto Una NA East since Karta is kinda dead but didnt wanna waste the pack

[inner wing]

Catching up means being at 1430ilvl

[tidal ingot]

so we come out of the story at about 300 right

what do we do from 300-1302?

[inner wing]

Doing dailies to hone and doing the MQs mainly

[mellow mauve]

^

[tidal ingot]

so just continuing the main quest but doing dailies as well

how long does 300-1300 typically take? am i strapped for time for the hyper thing

[rigid plank]

Back then it took about a week, now you can zoom through it in 1-3 days

[inner wing]

Hmmm

[gleaming pasture]

Yeah, from what i've been seeing on reddit its not to bad to catch up

[mental timber]

Did you use the punika pass already?

[silver rain]

If you have alts bring alts to kill him. you get the first kill chest for every char but the rate is pretty much 1:3-5 kills for me anyway

[mental timber]

Nah I already did my 7 alts

[tidal ingot]

not sure what that is so i dont think so

[mental timber]

Have you logged on lately? You should get a ticket looking item in the mail

[silver rain]

Time for 8th

[inner wing]

What's your current ilvl?

[maiden locust]

how does challenge abyss dungeon rewards work

[tidal ingot]

250

[inner wing]

You didn't get one for free then

(punika pass)

[maiden locust]

what do you mean

[mental timber]

I thought anyone could get the pass, even brand new accounts?

[maiden locust]

Are there any reputable communities people recommend for learning runs on the different raids? I'd rather not pay for a carry

[inner wing]

Everyone can buy the powerpass, that's true

[maiden locust]

you can

[mental timber]

I mean the free pass they mailed out

[maiden locust]

yeah

you get 1 when you finish punika for the first time

[inner wing]

[mental timber]

[sullen lark]

Guys, what level can you not do oreha hards anymore?

1430?

[blazing badger]

1415

[maiden locust]

1415

[buoyant herald]

you can always do them just no gold from 1415

[sullen lark]

Oh ok thanks. Can you run Carrie's at 1415?

[buoyant herald]

yeah

[sullen lark]

Kk I just for my gl to 1416. I think I could carry with that.

[maiden locust]

you probably cant solo tho

[mental timber]

If you're solo carrying, probs 1430? for an easier time tbh

[blazing plover]

How much gold is blue crystal in korea?

[maiden locust]

3k

[sullen lark]

Kk I wonder if I should try and push gl to 1430 or zerk to 1415 any thoughts?

[maiden locust]

is your main already 1460+?

[sullen lark]

1482.50

[maiden locust]

then sure

[sullen lark]

Would you push to 1430 or push another alt to 1415?

[maiden locust]

another to 1415 probably gives more gold no?

[sullen lark]

I'm not sure as this is my first alt past 1370 lol. I guess you make more gold doing valtan than orehas I think even if you are buying the chests?

[mental timber]

https://discordapp.com/channels/212635560596996097/453163801475284993/1013462114461044777

[maiden locust]

dont you already have an alt at 1415+?

[sullen lark]

I just got my first alt to 1415 right now

[weak gate]

guys i went to the designated times listed for the punika merchant and he is not there. I dont understand why im always never finding these merchants

[rigid plank]

It's random spawns in different areas

[sullen lark]

Use lost merchants dot com

[weak gate]

i know they spawn in different areas, but the punika merchant appears at certain times. I cant find him there

[weak gate]

ty

[sullen lark]

Yeah I guess I'll just move zerk to 1415 as he has like 1400 bound gleaps

[maiden locust]

yeah

how long does it take to get that many leaps

[sonic mountain]

Anyone know where's a good source to get life leapstones

[sullen lark]

The 2 events right now and tower. You'll get through t2 fast

[sonic mountain]

Which tower, both?

[maiden locust]

tier 2

[sonic mountain]

There's a shadespire and fatespire, assuming you're referring to those

[maiden locust]

yeah

[sullen lark]

Do your event guardian, and cds to get leads and tower

Its so easy to level through 1 and 2 now

Oh by the way and t2 islands

[sonic mountain]

Yeah ik the honing buff, but I'm running out of leapstones lol

[mellow mauve]

if you got the mats, I would do 1430

[sonic mountain]

I'm stuck at +10

The 2 events as in the event guardians and the maharaka thingy?

[sullen lark]

For hm valtan yeah? Instead of 2 toons doing nm valtan?

[pine oasis]

what other storages are there except pet, personal and mail?

[mellow mauve]

for normal vykas

[thin token]

hard mode valtan is 1445

[sullen lark]

My bad I meant 1 toon doing nm valtan and vykas or 2 toons doing valtan nm

[tidal ingot]

whats chaos gate

[pine oasis]

open world activity: portal to kill demons and get rewards

[tidal ingot]

im lvl 50 finishing up arthetine, is it something I can/should do?

[pine oasis]

whats your item lvl?

[tidal ingot]

255

[pine oasis]

there is a stopwatch tab on left side of your screen

all activities have a timer. all are listed there

[mellow mauve]

you make 3.3k more getting the 1 toon to nm vykas compared to 1.2k more getting another to valtan nm. (A case can be made tho if you wanna start stacking valtan mats earlier then zerk to 1415 and then gl to 1430 is also fine)

[pine oasis]

chaos gates unlock at 302 item lvl

[tidal ingot]

gotcha i see, so thatll tell me what i can/should do

[pine oasis]

yes

[tidal ingot]

ty!

[mystic crane]

Just continue main story quest to North Vern (next continent after Arthetine). You'll get access to those things and chaos dungeons there.

[sterile mantle]

How to turn off popup spam every 2 hours? i kinda getting tilted

[pine oasis]

theres also procyon's compass under the map. that also keeps track of your activities

[maiden locust]

you can't

[sullen lark]

Awesome thanks.

[pine oasis]

isnt argos 2700 gold?

[maiden locust]

is it

[sterile mantle]

it is

[pine oasis]

it is 4800 bc of the mats value?

[mystic crane]

Pic above shows gold income only, if not buying any chests, and includes Oreha hard for 1400

[pine oasis]

that still doesnt add up

oreha 1400 argos 2700 makes 4100 gold

[mellow mauve]

oreha is 2.1k

[mystic crane]

yep. 2.1 + 2.7 at 1400

[pine oasis]

oh 1400 is ilvl

[mystic crane]

There is a "gold planner" in a certain web site, which you can use to calculate weekly income up to 1460 (for now). Things will change, however, with Kakul in 4 weeks.

[wraith raft]

should i buy blue crystals with the current exchange rate (1495) or wait/hope for it to fall down (is it ever going to?)

[mystic crane]

Do you think it will ever fall down?

[wraith raft]

to da moon and beyond

[mystic crane]

As more gold is added into the economy, more will be needed for blue crystals...

[sly vector]

Hello all, I can’t find the 2nd awakening quest, because it’s already completed the whole thing. Is this a bug?

[maiden locust]

go to trixion to get your second awakaning

[soft ibex]

fast unas that give glh?

[sly vector]

What if it isn’t there?

[maiden locust]

the 3 in feiton

[worldly slate]

I was doing vykas but I have not experienced wipe in demon phase. What attack is that? She had an orb above her head

Didn’t know there was a wipe pattern in demon phase

[rose jewel]

at the very least have you went to trixion already as they told you? what's the reasoning of not trusting us

[rose jewel]

shushire and feiton x2 are the go to for most people

you can also use insta completion tickets from the event and finish the 5 leap ones instead, 1 more leap per una (or save them for slow things like eibern's)

[soft ibex]

which shushire and feiton just to be sure?

[sly vector]

Oh no I’m so sorry if I sounded harsh or like I didn’t believe you I did. It’s just I went there and Beatrice doesn’t want anything to do with me beside rapport gift.

[soft ibex]

sry meant to reply to you

[rose jewel]

have you already powerpassed to punika or feiton any alt

[rose jewel]

the only ones in feiton and shushire that gives leaps , you cant get lost imo

[sly vector]

Just to Vern on one alt that I’m currently playing on that needs that 2nd awakening.

[soft ibex]

ty

[rose jewel]

shushire is kill bandits for 50 poins, feiton is bomb a guardian and pick 2 guardian thingies, stupid fast for 4 leaps each

[rose jewel]

if you havent powerpassed anything to feiton or punika, at all, in that roster, then the awakening quest is NOT completed and you gotta either 1- do it manually or 2- powerpass anything to punika and it gets auto completed for the rest of your roster (please dont do it manually)

[sly vector]

Gotcha that’s so weird because in the quest it says completed. I went all the way to Feiton and thought maybe I could attempt to complete the quest now.

[rose jewel]

dont

[sly vector]

Will it be more bugged or just irredeemable?

[rose jewel]

the quest takes around 6 to 8 hours when done manually, you save a big amount of time just waiting for your powerpass

[sly vector]

Ah ty @rose jewel

[rose jewel]

and you get to t3 so fast nowadays

[inner idol]

Hi! Kind of a new player at Lost Ark, stuck at Tranquil Karkosa, me and my friends know the mechs of the last boss but its been impossible to find a party to complete the dungeon, what would be the appropriate channel to ask for that?

[rose jewel]

probably #979604974218653736 of your region, or party finder specifically with the title "alt run" "card run" or something of the sort

[inner idol]

Alright

Thanks

[rose jewel]

that's if you actually know the mechs of the other dungeons

if you dont and veteran people go and watch you die to the other ones, they gonna ditch you asap

[inner idol]

Well only the first and second dungeons so far because well... I tried 6 times with my friend today we keep having people who run around like headless chickens no matter how many times they are explained

[rose jewel]

reason: title being missleading and you wanting a free carry basically

but yeah, usually those dungeons aint done outside of party fidner with alt run titles, due to them being kinda harsh

ofc they're easy once you clear, but clearing is the problem

[inner idol]

exactly

[rose jewel]

and some people just plain refuse to use 1 braincell and learn

or they're bots

do you have a guild already

finding a good guild is kinda mandatory for mmos, specially for things like these

another issue is you being in the least populated region, so its gonna be harder to find people

[inner idol]

Well we made our own but we're kinda considering right now...

[amber berry]

Hi how do i get more Vitameow?

[rose jewel]

you can also attempt to write "learning party" or something, so people really interested in actually learning and clearing join

[maiden locust]

what server are you on?

[inner idol]

EUW

[rose jewel]

server doesnt matter, region is the problem

[worldly slate]

Why does sidereal skills not work? It doesn’t do damage to boss? Do I have to aim?

[rose jewel]

yes you have to aim and face to the boss with your char

[inner idol]

stoneheart otherwise

[maiden locust]

what server you could join my guild if your on rethmaris

[worldly slate]

When do I have to aim? Immediately after Ctrl Z?

[maiden locust]

wanna join our discord?

[rose jewel]

before launching it

[buoyant herald]

you aim it like a skill

[worldly slate]

Ok Thanks

[inner idol]

um sure? you on stoneheart as well?

[viral mural]

What classes will I struggle with to find groups to do raids etc with? I am trying to get back into the game and I know last time I recall I was a sharpshooter as my main but Idk the current state of the game

[maiden locust]

no but that doesnt really matter

[rose jewel]

none, all classes can clear all content

[buoyant herald]

you wont struggle if you have a solid build

and you will struggle on any class if you have a shit build 🙂

[viral mural]

Okay sounds great! I think I was just bordering 1100 or the gear score to begin tier 3.

[tidal ingot]

how do i find a good guild on my server

[rose jewel]

look for it in this discord

even reddit or forums help, if you dont look you wont find it

[tidal ingot]

I'm on Adrinne if anyone is in a guild that would take a fresh level 50 looking to learn

[earnest valve]

So how many times can you claim oreha on your characters?

[rose jewel]

this aint really the channel where people will look for you and invite you, nor the channel for you to look for a guild, try #979605141697224744 #na-west-guild-recruitment #guild-recruitment

of your region of course

[rose jewel]

6 chars a week for all content that gives gold

7th char onwards can get the loot and buy the box but you wont get any gold

[sonic mountain]

I made that mistake lmao

[rose jewel]

its not a mistake if you had fun on the journey

[sonic mountain]

Not really I was getting more dismayed at shown more and more of the quest when I thought i'd alr completed it lol

[rose jewel]

its the journey, not the goal

[modest rain]

I bought the level 50 complete pack on my main, can I also buy it on my alts?

[peak wyvern]

Only one time buy iirc the lvl 50 crystal pack

[modest rain]

so I cant buy it a second time on my alt?

[maiden locust]

cant you buy it on a different server?

[peak wyvern]

Different server idk, but your alts no, once you buy it, you've bought it for your entire roster since it's a shared amount between chars

[shrewd pollen]

How do I leave a guild?

[humble relic]

can someone explain currency exchange

[trail hawk]

should be under manage

[peak wyvern]

Royal Crystal to buy gold, then gold to buy bloo crystal, I think

[humble relic]

how do i even buy

or like i can't understand shit from the too many stuff on screen

[peak wyvern]

What are you thinking of buying

[humble relic]

exchanging gold to bloo crystal

and vice versa

[brave rapids]

they dont go vice versa

[peak wyvern]

:^) Oh god, I think he meant buy gold with RC

The blue crystal prices rn are kinda cringe.. so I don't recommend

[humble relic]

i am talking bout blue crystals

[peak wyvern]

almost 2k on NA for 95 bloo crystal

[humble relic]

i still haven't understood how it works

[rose jewel]

F4, currency exchange, 2nd tab on the lower right part, gold>blues

[humble relic]

like where tf is the buy button

[rose jewel]

first tab is royal to gold

[peak wyvern]

Bottom right

[humble relic]

u mean bottom left ? that's with irl money

[rose jewel]

that specific window you have there is to buy gold with royal crystals

[peak wyvern]

You put a listing for it to be able to buy, wait a couple hours till they buy your junk and get it on the history tab

[rose jewel]

"Purchase gold" isnt it, you need to pick "Buy Crystals" to buy blues with gold

[rose jewel]

that's the one

[humble relic]

what

if i want to buy 100 blue crystals now what do i do

[rose jewel]

you can see on the left the rates and which blues are getting sold, pick the cheapest one and wait
just push "ADD" and select 1, you buy 95 blues

[peak wyvern]

On the bottom right of your screen, there's Sale Price, Quantity, you set those junk, and then press Add once you think you're put a reasonable thing for it, then wait a couple hours for someone to take your listing

[rose jewel]

5 is the tax, you cant buy 100, you always buy 95

[humble relic]

so 1488 = 6700 blue crystal ?

[rose jewel]

you wish

[peak wyvern]

Nope :^) 1488 = 95 Blue crystal

[rose jewel]

1488 gold = 95 blues

[brave rapids]

That person is selling 6700 crystals at 1488 per 95

[humble relic]

ohhh okay what about quantity

[brave rapids]

Quantity is per 95 crystals you want. So 2 Quantity would just be 95 crystals x2 = 190 crystals

[humble relic]

wtf this is expensive

[brave rapids]

Yah.

[rose jewel]

yes, yes it is, and its gonna keep getting worse

[peak wyvern]

Yep

[humble relic]

i wanted to buy 420

[brave rapids]

Fork up 6k

[humble relic]

[peak wyvern]

Yep pretty much lol

[rose jewel]

that's around 7400g or something

[peak wyvern]

That's like 3 Argos full runs

[humble relic]

lol fr

[rose jewel]

just 3 alts at 1400, ez

[peak wyvern]

Eh :^) debatable

[humble relic]

its 7552 gold

my ass

[rose jewel]

you still have oreha gold, daily material outcome, adv. island and many more gold sources

[peak wyvern]

^

I think Oreha gold is like 1500?

[humble relic]

what ?

[rose jewel]

what

[humble relic]

wait a min what is oreha gold

[peak wyvern]

If you do hard at least lol

[rose jewel]

900+1200 for oreha hard

[peak wyvern]

Oh it's more nice, I didn't even think it was that much

[rose jewel]

abyss dungeon my boy, what ilv are you if i may ask

[humble relic]

Oh i know what it is now

ye ye i had to reset all after raaching 1340 on euw

no 1375

[rose jewel]

1340 is baby numbers, at least you're in a better place now

[humble relic]

so i forgot everything

[peak wyvern]

Game kinda starts at 1370, then it really starts at 1415 im told :^)

[brave rapids]

you're told? whats your ilevel ken

[rose jewel]

then it finally starts at 1600

[brave rapids]

NAEU Akkan when

[humble relic]

idk i was brain dead ? cause i did play on 3 charecter at the same time and kinda got them all to 1302

[rose jewel]

see you in 3022

[peak wyvern]

1410

[humble relic]

but all good lol i have brain now

[rose jewel]

@soft ibex my boy, you can ask here

[soft ibex]

how many una weeklies can you do?

[brave rapids]

Use alts to funnel into one character until that character is at a decent spot (I would say at 1385 for the stronghold buff) and then start building your alts afterwards.

[rose jewel]

3 per char

[soft ibex]

ty

[rose jewel]

you just cant repeat already done ones, gotta be different

[humble relic]

yeah alright

im 1365 now on euc

[rose jewel]

ofc they reset weekly as well, so just pick whichever ones you want (leapstones being the usual ones)

[brave rapids]

EUC is dead, no? or so I'm told

[rose jewel]

what?

[humble relic]

no , euw is

[brave rapids]

ohhhh gotcha

[rose jewel]

euc is the alive one, euw is the deadge one

[humble relic]

euw got basically 0 players im not even joking

[maiden locust]

wrong

[maiden locust]

1 and its me

[humble relic]

haha xd

[rose jewel]

oh yeah i remember euw has 2 more people, so its like 7 people on the server now, kappa

[maiden locust]

thats almost enough to do a raid

[humble relic]

basically after 3-4 pm queues are almost impossible on euw

oh and t2 queues on euw are basically non existant

[brave rapids]

what are the gold prices on EUW?

[peak wyvern]

Jeezus

[maiden locust]

like 900

[humble relic]

i thought it would be the same on euc but here it takes like 1-3 mins for it

[brave rapids]

900 for a dead region? thats nuts
