[wanton needle]

That site still got honing books. Which is no longer needed

Idk if that site is accurate anymore

[crisp turtle]

It is

[maiden locust]

if you hold down mouse button you can select muliple at a time

[rose jewel]

surprise surprise, it is also updated with the global hone bonus in both t3s

[remote parrot]

i was just making sure how much caldaer i need

[crisp turtle]

None

[remote parrot]

? you dont need caldear for t2?

[crisp turtle]

Not anymore

[remote parrot]

wait rlly

[rose jewel]

ok, it was the former, old mentality

[remote parrot]

oh why was i so worried than lmao

[wanton needle]

Just do tower and you get like 80 percent

[rose jewel]

you didnt even reach t2 and you're panicking

[wanton needle]

Of everything you need

[rose jewel]

isnt he starting anew in another server, aka no tower mats

[remote parrot]

i reached t3 on my euw acc i needed those fusio mat back then

[rose jewel]

yeah, back then* not now

[remote parrot]

i just came back after 10 month ish so idk the changes regarding honing, all i knew was they buffed the honing chances

[rose jewel]

100% all reduced mats no more gold needed for t1 t2

and it seems no more fusions

[crisp turtle]

And tower gives you nowhere near 80% of required materials.

[remote parrot]

no wonder ppl selling caldear for 1g each on the market

[maiden locust]

you dont need them

[elder anchor]

Does the stronghold exp boost affect training ?

[silver rain]

no

[slim beacon]

whats better ?

[pseudo atlas]

they're both awful but the first one is worse than the second one

[slim beacon]

so if u had to choose u'd keep the second one ?

[pseudo atlas]

i would throw the entire damn thing away with grudge 2

[eternal zenith]

CD - Grude - KBW is the type of engraving that you dont use them unless they're level 3

[thin token]

lol i would hate having to look at that everytime i open up my char

[slim beacon]

its a temp build xD not even my main build

[pseudo atlas]

grudge 2 on its own is like...okay sure, and it'll probably get you blocked from some party finders, kbw1 is like instant decline

[eternal zenith]

that's an awfull temp build, where is your class engraving

i rather pick 2nd 1 but with class engraving instead

[pseudo atlas]

...also yeah what in the world is this for

[slim beacon]

its there just not in the screenshot xD

[eternal zenith]

2nd pic it is then

[pseudo atlas]

well in any case the second one is not going to get you banned from all parties so good luck with that i guess

[slim beacon]

alrighty^^ thank u all

[hearty wolf]

what time does revelry row co op quest start?

[pure nacelle]

will the glory&respite skins be available with BC in shop even after the battle pass ends? (if u bought premium)

[modern beacon]

do you have a higher chance for rare drops when trade skill level increases?

[maiden locust]

can you dismantle relic armor and get the mats back

[echo owl]

yes

[maiden locust]

so ill be able to rebuy it

only if you havent transfered it yet

[brave rapids]

not that it's a big deal, but why didnt this complete?

[maiden locust]

dont recraft if you got low quality its a waste of gold

[lost mesa]

im a fresh 1100 character that just started playing lost ark. how many skill points can i get instantly just by completing quests?

i have 261 atm at lv50

[maiden locust]

its qual 6 so youre saying dont dismantle it and buy another

[brave rapids]

skill points is a long term goal. just look them all up and finish whatever you can slowly. it took me a few months to get all the skill points

[maiden locust]

no just upgrade it with the quality vendor

[lost mesa]

yea i know some of these giants hearts and omnium stars and the like take a while i just want to know how much i can get right off the bat

[brave rapids]

Hit Alt+D in game to pull the Codex, and then search up Skill Point Potion. Then click through them and see what you can do. Google the quests that reward them, etc etc.

I think there's maybe like... less than 10 than can be acquired through quests. All the others are Collectables, Reps, Rapports, etc. There's also a couple of quests that might require something that you don't have access to right away, like a song.

[lost mesa]

ah, thanks

[maiden locust]

Question i have 2 relic gears is it worth wearing over full argos atm or should i stash till i have full set

[brave rapids]

it's worth wearing 2, 4, or 6 of either set. don't go 3/3 though. the set bonuses are at 2/4/6

[maiden locust]

okay so i have

so i should transfer 2 of my argos gear for them

[brave rapids]

yes

[pseudo atlas]

argos is 2/5, there's no difference if you do 3/3 or whatever

[brave rapids]

Oh true. Yeah i guess 3/3 doesn't matter then.

[pseudo atlas]

it's repeatable, you must've done 2 raids instead of 3 at some point

or actually it says gates, so you'd have a total of 2 + 3 + 3 done this week

[maiden locust]

I have full argos set i just now got 2 of my relic gear i was not sure if its worth gear transfering over the 2 of argos if i lost dps or something

[fair mantle]

It's repeatable

[maiden locust]

2 set relic gives a lot more dmg the 5 piece argos

And don't recraft relic gear if you get low quality,use the quality vendor it's cheaper and beter then recrafting

[modern beacon]

how do you get rid of duplicate island souls?

[pseudo atlas]

turn them in as normal

[modern beacon]

nice - thanks

[shy yarrow]

kharmines soul will stay in my storage for eternity

[brave rapids]

After Brel release, do the current Fused Leapstones become combined like all the other mats (5:1 ratio), or do we just use them as is?

[maiden locust]

Combined

5:1

[brave rapids]

Is there somewhere I can see cost per hone, and hone rates?

Like how many leapstones used at +15 or whatever

[maiden locust]

No idea

I think kanima made a video about brel honing but idk if he put that in the video

[crimson dragon]

how long do the atlas merchant take to spawn?

[cunning sand]

Is there a nice comprehensive guide to this game, or somebody who can teach me the ropes? I am a new player and I am feeling somewhat overwhelmed rn

[rose jewel]

#new-player-tips

[brave rapids]

It's a themepark style MMO, so there's a ton to do. Just take it one step a time.

[rose jewel]

maxroll.gg has a lot of guides as well, worth checking it out

[cunning sand]

Thank you!

[brave rapids]

How does the First Clear Reward work for Brel? Is it only for clearing all 6 gates? Or do you get one at the end of gates 2 and 4?

[rigid plank]

once at g2

[median dagger]

new to the game, playing a machinst. Is it just me or is the shift key awkward for drone control? I wish I could change it to the ctrl key, but it isn't possible. Any better alternative keys?

[brave rapids]

might wanna try asking in #machinist

[median dagger]

ah thanks

[brave rapids]

Anyone have a Legendary+ life skill tool? Do you feel like it gathers more compared to Epic?

[hardy cypress]

can u still get island soul/secret map if u already claimed rewards?

[brave rapids]

If you already claimed the daily reward, no.

[hardy cypress]

sad then

[solemn sapphire]

should I make a scouter or destroyer alt

[rose jewel]

yes

[shy yarrow]

[pseudo atlas]

very different playstyles, watch some videos that look interesting for each class/build

[cursive shadow]

Hi guys so I started playing this month and got a paladin up to around 1445
Now I'm having trouble with my steam acc maybe it got hacked or but I can't login and I'm trying to resolve this on the side but have no idea how long it can take I'm wandering if I should create a new steam acc and start from scratch or if I should wait a few days to see if it's resolved or not

[rose jewel]

the moment they see you logging in from a 2nd account, you're in risk of getting beaned, its against ToS, resolve your steam acc issue

and dont click on suspicious links nor any thing you got from a pm

[cursive shadow]

Wdym I was talking about making a new steam acc and a new lost ark acc
I offtenly get maisl about a login from unknown location but I usually just ignore it

Maybe il go play ffxiv or wow or maplestory in the meantime

[shy yarrow]

tell me youre joking

[dreamy bluff]

when brel comes out which gear pieces is more worth to gear transfer first? a lvl 20 or a lvl21 piece

[buoyant herald]

if you are the original owner you can recover your steam account anytime no matter what they do to it even if they "hacked" it

[rose jewel]

i usually yeet at this point, gl

[urban topaz]

20. Gloves for dps, chestpiece for supp

[dreamy bluff]

thank you

[cursive shadow]

Yeah im trying to resolve my steam acc issues I don't even 100% sure it was hacked excactly I just know I can't login into my steam

[urban topaz]

Or if you can go g1 g6 and get all chests at bid, you can go weapon week 2 I think ?

[dreamy bluff]

doesnt steam have a forget password thing?

is your email changed?

[cursive shadow]

Yeah it has

[dreamy bluff]

just say you forgot password and it'll make you make a new password

if you are hacked the hacker will most likely change the email you used to his or something. otherwise just use your email and reset it

[cursive shadow]

Yeah I know how it works I'm confident on what my password was but for some reason I don't get an email notification when I try to do forgot password

[timber elk]

can you get all legendary pieces in one week after hitting 1370?

[cursive shadow]

Yeah well all in all I'm in the process of resolving it

I submitted a ticket to steam and hopfully will be able to resolve it but can't play lost ark for the meantime

[elfin harness]

yes

youd have to do p1-p3 argos and hm oreha's well

[timber elk]

which resource do you use for the weapon?

[elfin harness]

you most likely want to use the mats from hm orehas well for that which is oreha's emperyan

and 200g

[timber elk]

sounds good

[vapid sand]

can timestop save you from clown g3 bingo hammers?

[rose jewel]

no

[dreamy bluff]

oreha will give total of 35 empyrean things that you can use to craft 1 weapon and 2 armor gear pieces. then you can run argos to make the 3 other armor pieces. then the week after you can slowly replace the oreha gears with 5piece argos gear. u can keep the weapon with oreha gear @timber elk

even if you only do gate 1 of argos you will still have enough to make 2 set pieces or argos

[timber elk]

thanks for the insight!

the only way to get the +16-18 book is from event right? or is there other ways of obtaining? Im 1 upgrade away from 1430, trying to get a little more juice for this piece

[urban topaz]

Only from the event yeah, one time purchase :/

Maybe we getting more on the mystic abyss thingy next week

[timber elk]

is pushing for vykas worth? id have to get a bus cause im not very geared yet

[rose jewel]

very, 3300 extra weekly

[dreamy bluff]

yes and u'll also be able to start getting ur mats to craft your future relic gear set

[timber elk]

should I just raw tap or should I buy some solars?

[rose jewel]

raw

[quiet umbra]

If you can afford to do it this week, get it done this week.
I'm guessing that there will be new 16>18 books coming with the new event in ~5 days.
Since 15>16 and 16>17 are 10% base success rate while 17>18 is 5% success rate, I would recommend raw tapping to 16 first and then using the books on the 5% success rate

[olive saddle]

Guys I just hit 1475 now what

How can I make a lot of gold at 1475

[snow wadi]

Uh, you can now run clown instead of argos
but still bus argos for extra gold
that's it

[olive saddle]

What’s my price for bus I should do

What’s clown

[quiet umbra]

whatever market value is, see what other people are listing on partyfinder and match

[snow wadi]

Kakul-Saydon
3rd Legion Raid

[quiet umbra]

Clown is the 1475 legion raid, Kakul Saydon

[olive saddle]

What benefit is there by doing that

[snow wadi]

Uh the joy of experiencing the most recent raid?

And you can upgrade your relic set
Get some more gold
and some more mats

[quiet umbra]

Reward is ~4500 gold (minus what you spend on chests) and mayhem horns which you use to upgrade your relic set bonus (10%? extra dmg overall)

[olive saddle]

Ok

Dam is the raid easy?

[pseudo atlas]

well by honing to 1475 you no longer get gold directly from argos so if you didn't plan on doing clown then you just lost a bunch of gold

[quiet umbra]

gate 1-2 is managable. gate 3 is very difficult at first

[ancient lark]

yeah very easy

[olive saddle]

Thanks

What’s likely good of me getting gold from bussing argosy

[buoyant herald]

if you have the gear / hands for it its 100%

[olive saddle]

What if they give me gold and I fail the bus cuz I keep dying?

[buoyant herald]

you refund them or you get repoted XD

you should do a free bus for friends / guildies to try if you are up for the task

[olive saddle]

Reported?

[buoyant herald]

then next week you can charge for it

[olive saddle]

Ok thanks

[ebon ice]

what honing number is fused leapstone best used for?

[dreamy bluff]

They usually pay after boss 2 which is the most annoying one. Also difficulty will depend if you are selling a 2man bus or 4man buss

[buoyant herald]

12- 17

[ebon ice]

well I am passed that, I'm tryign to push 1475 from 1460

[ancient lark]

it's pure rng so do it when you're feeling lucky

[ebon ice]

wait.. I'm dumb I knew it was too good to be true lmfao, I clicked on a non relic set

[buoyant herald]

its kind a waste on +19 but you can go for it its just rng in the end

[ebon ice]

and thought it said 100% but it was just 100% on the stupid shards that I used to hone

[buoyant herald]

[ancient lark]

[dreamy bluff]

Fused stone is full rng. It's not like basic honing where your chances to up as u fail. A 3% chance with fused stones will stay at 3% until you run out of fused

[shy yarrow]

after it goes up from 8 per tap on armour it starts feeling pretty despair

[ancient lark]

wdym annoying? most busser usually failed at p3 during blue seed collection

[buoyant herald]

yebim just stacking for brel gear

[shy yarrow]

dumping it into your weapon is not worth either so you'll just be hodl-ing and putting 5-1 later

[ebon ice]

what'd you mean 5-1

[shy yarrow]

the seeds are buggy af and sometimes can't be picked up lol

when we get the soft reset you can transfer them 5 to 1

[fair mantle]

Not rlly, ppl just aren't aware of the timing, the mech is always consistent

Coz in a 2 man if u hover over the seed too long or too less you'll probably fail

[ebon ice]

I pitied like 4/6 pieces at +18 and I'm bout to pity my first +19 z

[shy yarrow]

how else do you pick them up besides just walking over them or standing on it

[fair mantle]

Just use event books I one tapped 3 armours to 18 with them on an alt

[buoyant herald]

you dont stand on them just run

[fair mantle]

No you have to stand on then for a certain duration

[ebon ice]

I burnt them on the 2 I succeeded on lmfao

[fair mantle]

Otherwise you miss the collection

[buoyant herald]

no you dont if they sre fully spawned you just sprint trough

[fair mantle]

That's the timing you have to get right

Shouldn't be too long, and not too short either

[shy yarrow]

it never felt consistent for me, some of them instantly get picked up some of them ill be walking all over them and won't pickup

[fair mantle]

Maybe you're playing a slow char and when u go through it it covers the hovering period

[buoyant herald]

yea i guess blade with lvl 1 -ms XDD

[shy yarrow]

seeds are picky lol

[buoyant herald]

lucky enough to never get the night on scrapper yet

[fair mantle]

Yeah it's different for different chars, for my scrapper usually I have to stall a bit but on SH walking is fine

[buoyant herald]

[fair mantle]

The usual problem of the seed 'not being collected' in pug busses is them not hovering on it for long enough

[shy yarrow]

[elder anchor]

are lvl 30 purple flowers better than lvl 10 purple ones?

[fallow trail]

I see sometimes peoples' gems have a special symbol in the bottom right, what is that?

[fair mantle]

They're part of a preset

[fallow trail]

ok ty

[flat dagger]

Yes, you get more materials and more frequently rarer materials.

[elder anchor]

know any good t3 areas for flowers then?

[flat dagger]

Platinum fields

Otherwise, the South Vern Candaria or Punika Tideshelf Path on the far left with enemies.

Neither of which even come close in comparison to Platinum Fields.

[elder anchor]

I just needed a good palce to burn lifeskill nergy

[barren jacinth]

if I skip a raid today do I get all materials tomorrow with the catch up mechanics or just a percentage of it?

[flat dagger]

Excavation island next to South Vern, the one in the Dead Waters.

[elder anchor]

nihel?

[flat dagger]

Yea.

[fair mantle]

Guardian raid?

[barren jacinth]

yes

[flat dagger]

@elder anchor
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/846806833238507530/994728101437247579/unknown.png

[fair mantle]

If you skip 2 souls you get 20 rest bonus and 20 rest bonus = 1 extra soul

[flat dagger]

4 souls vs 3 souls, if you do it every 2 days.

[ebon ice]

would the ultimate budget way of honing be, selling leapstones/shards and use that gold for solars? since a click for a +19 wep costs over 4k

or just try to rng it

[flat dagger]

Check a honing calculator for optimal solar use.

[fierce hill]

I would prob only use bound

[flat dagger]

Currently it's been very much not in the favor of using solars due to their cost, might as well buy extra materials for a 2nd tap.

[ebon ice]

I mean I just pissed away 15k gold and I'm just sad only getting like 30% on the honing thing

[fierce hill]

Not much u can do about it

[flat dagger]

2x tap or 1x tap with full solars accomplish the same thing.

[peak glade]

someone that have nothing to do now want to boost me 2 raids in t2? 2 minutes adventure, i m still equipped with t1 things, will take hours xd

[ebon ice]

well damn I bought solars to buy for my last 2 taps that was a waste then

[flat dagger]

Check maxroll's honing calculator.

Input your price and select the weapon level you're going for.

[radiant flame]

Solars aren’t magic…

[faint roost]

do i need to do all the island quest on my alt aswell https://maxroll.gg/lost-ark/resources/road-to-rohendel ?

[ebon ice]

honestly I didn't know it only gave the same amount of honing energy as 2x tap, thought it was more

[radiant flame]

Honing is all RNG in the end of the day.

It all evens out in the end

[ebon ice]

which was why I thought it was worth to buy it, because I suck with luck so I wanted like guarantee numbers

[faint roost]

also is there any way to transfer my +15 t1 gear to alts, or is there a way to buy +15 t1 gear, or do i need to start from scrath and hone everything again on all alts?

[flat dagger]

It's usually best to just use bound solars on the weapon and that's it.

[radiant flame]

The latter

[flat dagger]

You have to start over every time.

[faint roost]

oh rip

[radiant flame]

Otherwise how will you enjoy the grind?!

[flat dagger]

I mean, 6% instead of 2x 3% could succeed for you, but it's all RNG.

[fierce hill]

Is 6 the maximum amount of free legendary engraving books we can get atm? (2 tradeable class, 2 untradable class, 2 tradeable combat engraving)

[flat dagger]

1x from Mayhem shop.

[fair mantle]

It's 5

[rose jewel]

no, islands are a 1 time reward rosterwide

[faint roost]

oh thank god, so i dont need to do that on my alts anymore

[fair mantle]

I mean T1-T3 takes like one week now with the vendor

[tropic steppe]

Islands are pretty cool the first time 🤷‍♂️
People are just too goal oriented and skip everything.

[fierce hill]

@flat dagger @fair mantle are you sure it's 5? 2 from arcana pass, 2 from anguish, 2 from tower?

[faint roost]

what is this vendor you speak of?

[fair mantle]

Lmao the express is gone I'm not counting that, it's 1 from mayhem vendor

[fair mantle]

Guardian event

[tropic steppe]

I literally read every quest and side quest and completed everything in the game, while working 7 days a week and Im still pretty geared with a nice roster.
Theres no need to rush. Just enjoy the game

[fierce hill]

Ok fine

[flat dagger]

Meanwhile I'm the opposite and have done all horizontal content 😄

[tropic steppe]

Same

Well I guess Im missing isle of yearning soul and a couple sea bounties but I grinded those alot and figured I should stop wasting my time.
Also missing like 4 or 5 world tree leaves but they'll come over time.

[solemn sapphire]

megachad

[peak glade]

horizontal content would be super hyper cool if it wasnt locked out by timed events and dailies

i m ok with dailies, but timed events....

[tropic steppe]

Most horizontal content isnt gated behind timed events.

[radiant flame]

yep you can just sit in yearning 24/7

[timber elk]

do people do normal vykas busses?

[tawny wadi]

My Sharpshoot sucks i dont make damage im 1380 now with 3x3 fast 4x3 and 4 lvl Gems and some good Tripods I have full Argos Set but im still so bad even at Albion Boss in Orhea and I play Loyal Companion Build and take all advices from Guides what i can found i thinf about to change class really really bad

[flat dagger]

What are you comparing against exactly?

[slim beacon]

why i see so many scouters with class engraving lvl 1 ?

[tawny wadi]

Nobody all ppl are better then me its no matter which class they use

[elfin harness]

yep. have fun paying 4k for them tho

[flat dagger]

Then keep playing the game and improve, no amount of class changing is going to fix your issues.

If you find sharpshooter fun to play, keep at it and improve your skills and gear as time comes.

It took me so long to finally feel like I did damage as Gunslinger, so I know the feeling.

[tawny wadi]

I take my best

[fair mantle]

I mean what problem are you having? Dying too much?

[pseudo atlas]

one of the class builds just uses lv1 class engraving

it's not that unusual

[tawny wadi]

No thats is ok but i make lack of damage only one my skill get more then rest

[slim beacon]

whats better ?

for 4x3

[pseudo atlas]

iunno ask the machinists

[fair mantle]

What are you comparing your damage to

[fair mantle]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Nkd1R14ZNVHsyfHCiyw_nd2stA-5PDseNM58dC5gVK0/edit?usp=sharing

[tawny wadi]

Im thing this is cuse i dont have all runs now and lack skills i have like 309 skills

[fair mantle]

Not sure what you mean

[pseudo atlas]

there are like a dozen things you haven't mentioned that could be affecting you, but first of all what are you comparing yourself to

[fair mantle]

^

[rose jewel]

a 1600+ in kr probably

[rugged fulcrum]

hi guys, noob question but how do i know which position to stand for valtan orbs in pugs?

[flat dagger]

You plan that in the workshop circle.

[rugged fulcrum]

oh okay, the pug i was in just seemed to know their positions without setting it up in the workshop circle

i thought they were going by party number order or something

[flat dagger]

Eh? Probably Wei cheese or something then?

[rose jewel]

they pick a random one, the less stagger classes like bard go last, usually, the bigger stagger classes 1-4

[rugged fulcrum]

we did orbs then wei

[rose jewel]

if you're a bard you go 7 or 8

[flat dagger]

Either they just went to an open spot or they pre-planned it.

[rose jewel]

otherwise pick whatever is left or whatever you want

sometimes its a guild and they already have their numbers, who knows, pick whatever or last

[rugged fulcrum]

oh okay gotcha

[sterile turret]

Anyone wanna carry me through like 4 raids on raid level 3 and 4? Eu Central

[snow wadi]

#eu-central-region-chat

[fair mantle]

Just ask someone in area chat tbh

[solid geyser]

I bought the new ark pass skins with blue crystals on an alt and can't claim it on my main. Is there no way for me to claim the skin on my main.

[fair mantle]

What class is the alt and what class is the main

[solid geyser]

Different classes

never bought a skin before so didnt know it worked like that

[fair mantle]

Not sure if they're character specific boxes but if they are then you can't

Not all boxes are character specific

[rose jewel]

blue crystal skins are bound iirc

[solid geyser]

yea it says bind to the character when i try to claim it

yea I had no idea

[rose jewel]

RC are roster bound by class, blue crystals are bound

[flat dagger]

Blue crystal outfits are bound to a character and not class?

[rose jewel]

seems like it? someone mentioned it earlier

[faint roost]

My alt has zero harmony shards, i thought they were shared among all chars, do i just need to get them from una's and chaos.

[flat dagger]

Chaos dungeons, Una's Tasks, Ship Merchant, Tower, Event Guardian shop.

[buoyant herald]

would be too easy XD shards are char bound

[faint roost]

Could you perhaps tell me how to access gaurdian event? I dont know access that content.

[flat dagger]

Same physical location as a normal guardian raid, usually right next to it.

[buoyant herald]

yes bc outfits always char bound rc always roster bound

[flat dagger]

Yup, you're correct about that.

Does anyone have any idea how rare it is to get a expert / master craft kit?

[sterile turret]

How do I get rid of my remaining gems in my inventory xD

[flat dagger]

Why would you want to get rid of them?

[buoyant herald]

super mega extra rare XD

[sterile turret]

Idk how it works I never got a quest explaining them

[flat dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/bruh424019499-gif-25675566

[sterile turret]

idk what im doing cuh

[flat dagger]

A gem increases a skill's damage or reduces its cooldown, that's it.

[sterile turret]

Yeah and my gemslots r full

[flat dagger]

Combine them to Lv. 2 etc.

[sterile turret]

WHA

how xD

[flat dagger]

3x Lv. 1 = 1x Lv. 2

[fair mantle]

Those silver pots are giving me OCD

[flat dagger]

Silver pots?

[rough prawn]

these

[flat dagger]

All from Isle of Yearning

[sterile turret]

I see ty what is the way to play just fill out my slots with lvl 2s and then upgrade or does it not really matter yet as im lower item lvl (around 1040)

[flat dagger]

Fill with the core gems for your class/build, combine gems and they will have a up arrow if they are an improved level on an equipped gem.

Auto-fuse is an option too.

[sterile turret]

Also does it matter if you fuse both caldea and farsea or should I do 3 of a kind? ALso what are fusion materials xD

[flat dagger]

Combine any gems, outcome is 50/50 for CDR or DMG gem.

[sterile turret]

I see ty

[flat dagger]

Fusion materials are made from life skilling materials and used for honing.

[sterile turret]

damn

another term idk XD

[flat dagger]

Life skills?

[sterile turret]

Yeah I dont think ive heard of those

AKA Trade Skills.

[sterile turret]

AHHH

[sterile turret]

Never went into those tbf

[flat dagger]

Fusion materials are specifically made from Excavation/Hunting/Fishing materials.

[sterile turret]

Oh so it is important to raise your honing chance in endgame?

[rough prawn]

yea its shite

[rough prawn]

wtf

[flat dagger]

It has nothing to do with honing chance.

[sterile turret]

oh

[sterile turret]

also is there a certain way of opening card packs to make it more worth like waiitng

Because I got these card packs uncommon to leg but also rare to leg

[flat dagger]

Legendary Selection packs you wait with, anything else you just open.

[sterile turret]

I see ty

[sterile turret]

What abt my card catalog being full though

[glacial meteor]

is it really that hard getting pheons as a beginner?

[flat dagger]

Expand it by going to the enhance tab and scroll down to the new lines, buy more space.

[fair mantle]

Rn yes but they did just give us like 150+ pheons

[sterile turret]

How do I get that currency

[flat dagger]

F4, currency exchange.

[glacial meteor]

when?

[fair mantle]

Over the last few weeks, login rewards + compensation + express + ark pass

[sterile turret]

Isnt it hard to get gold though

[flat dagger]

Early game, kinda.

[glacial meteor]

unlucky, started like 2 weeks ago trying to get my relic stuff and i need damn pheons haha

[flat dagger]

Once you hit 1340/1370 then not really.

[quiet spoke]

is there a honing calculator for +21 to +22 on weapon?

[fair mantle]

Well there's still a lot, more than enough for a fresh guy, unless you already wasted them earlier

[flat dagger]

https://maxroll.gg/lost-ark/upgrade-calculator

[leaden escarp]

will i lose the armor quality when i get a new gear set from brelshaza?

[glacial meteor]

hm idk could be that i wasted few not many actually but i honestly dont have much got now my neclace and i have 23 pheons, where to get more if u say theres a lot for beginners

[flat dagger]

Pheons can be bought in the F4 shop for blue crystals.

[glacial meteor]

ye i know but im not talking about that

[flat dagger]

Oh, you mean specifically free ones?

[fair mantle]

Do you already have the ones from login rewards + ark pass + express? Also if you have 23 I think you already spent a lot coz apart from those every fresh account gets 100+ pheons to start with

Along with the skins and mokokoboard

[glacial meteor]

nah not finished with ark pass

[flat dagger]

Lv. 10 gives 25x pheons.

[fair mantle]

Are you sure there aren't any pheons sitting in your inventory or anything

Coz if you didn't spend any you should at least have 100-125+

[glacial meteor]

no brother, it would be awesome if there would be some haha

as i said i have now 23 and i bought 1 relic neclace

[fair mantle]

Well unfortunately you already spent a lot then, the sources I mentioned are it for now without gold

[fair mantle]

You probably bought legendary accesories or skins

[glacial meteor]

oh ye skins tho -.-

fck that shit ye thats the key then i guess

[fair mantle]

If the skins aren't tradeable 3x then they cost 10 pheons per piece, that's why most ppl avoid that when buying skins from the market

[flat dagger]

3-trade skins don't cost pheons, anything less does.

[glacial meteor]

good to know it now haha ye fck it, gotta wait 2 days for login pheons and getting lv 10 arkpass reward and lv 30

thanks then haha

[flat dagger]

Jebaited by skins

[glacial meteor]

ye fck that holy shit never buying it again haah

[fair mantle]

[flat dagger]

Buying skins is fine, but not with pheons unless you have the gold to support that.

[glacial meteor]

i didnt knew that unfortunatly

[cloud pendant]

The new mystic raid is only limited time only and not permanent?

[fair mantle]

Yeah

It's an event raid, will probably have a vendor, not a gold earning raid

[flat dagger]

@faint roost

Hello, how many times can I do event gaurdian raid, can every alt do them aswell? Also what do i buy with the coins.```
Once a day on every character, you buy whatever you need.

[faint roost]

What are the best things to buy with it?

[flat dagger]

Whatever you need.

[torpid lantern]

Are cooldown gems' reduction calculated based on the "base" cooldown amount? Or the total, including tripods set bonuses, etc?

[tulip prawn]

are these behind una task?

[flat dagger]

They should be yes.

[faint roost]

How do i get my 2nd vern power pass, cant find it in mail

[low trail]

you get it once you use the first one

[faint roost]

Weird, ive checked my mail, on both my main, and alt but its not there.

[low trail]

you should get it in mail on the char you used it on

[swift dust]

can i reenter adventure island after claiming the rewards just to do quests?

[inner wing]

Yes

[muted flicker]

should I pick the rewards from the support materials based on gold value or is there something else I should consider?

[flat dagger]

Gold value.

[rocky sinew]

how to profit off guardian stones now that they have hit 2 gold on euc? ive so many stacks and no use for them

Is it best just to stock them and exchange them for brel mat?

[rough prawn]

Are u 1490 on all characters?

6 char 1490?

Or one 1505 but 1490 is the sweetest spot

[rocky sinew]

no but they are never the bottleneck and my main is 1510

[rough prawn]

Hmmmm

Im not sure if the brel blues are bound

[rocky sinew]

if you convert they become bound

[flat dagger]

You stockpile them and convert/sell on 2nd week after release.

[rocky sinew]

Hmm they might spike at brel ill just hold onto them for now since 2 gold is basically throwing gold away

[flat dagger]

Yup, there is no reason to sell them currently.

[dapper geyser]

will we ever get south vern knowledge transfer?

[flat dagger]

Probably with the next continent.

[slim beacon]

guys i found kakul in a lobby

[inner wing]

one of the best Paladin build available it seems

[slim beacon]

INDEED

[opaque aspen]

If I put starting bid of something let's say 4000 then it will take 200 as deposit and when someone buy/win bid for 4000 then another -200
So I lose total 10% right?

[rain meadow]

the deposit is returned

[flat dagger]

And tax is 5% of the sale price.

[slim beacon]

when it gets sold, u get back the deposit amount

[opaque aspen]

Ohh ok
Why is it required anw?

[rain meadow]

you only lose the 5% transaction fee

[flat dagger]

So you don't bait people by putting stuff up and then just remove it.

[opaque aspen]

here its taking 210 and will eat another 210 during sale and give back deposit?

[flat dagger]

What? You deposit 210 and get it back on a sale / expire. Nothing more, nothing less. 5% tax on the sale price as well.

[opaque aspen]

Yea so overall if gets sold for 4400 ... I will get total 4180 something right?

[flat dagger]

• deposit yes.

[opaque aspen]

And it will keep 220 as tax

[opaque aspen]

Right total is with deposit

[flat dagger]

If it sells for 4400, you'll get 4180 + 210.

Sale price * 0.95 + Deposit

[opaque aspen]

Yea but that 210 is like - now + later so it isn't in profit

[flat dagger]

Profit was never specified.

[opaque aspen]

Yea right It's my fault

[crisp turtle]

Whatever your highest stat allocation is

10% of 1500 gives a lot more value than 10% of 500

[granite hull]

Does anyone have that infographic with the most optimal way for a party to split the trumpets to upgrade relic sets?

[crisp turtle]

you just rotate a different person each week? idk how else would be optimal

[thin token]

[modest ocean]

euw servers are so dead

trying to look for ppl to do some abyssal dungeon but none

[hot path]

can i color leveling clothing peaces?

[rain meadow]

no you can only dye dyeable skins

[flat dagger]

Swap to EUC then.

[hot path]

and how do i know which ones are dyable?

i assumed that all which do not have "cannot be dyed" are dyable but that's wrong then?

[flat dagger]

No, that's correct. But that applies to cosmetic items.

[hot path]

so only cosmetics can be dyed. too bad :(

[dapper geyser]

if we fill multiple inventory pages with tripods, all of them get transferred when the update hits right?

[crisp turtle]

yes

[thin token]

make sure u save ur tripods that are on ur armor too if u have any level 4s there. Any tripods on the armor you are wearing will not transfer over if u did not save them in library

[modern beacon]

Has anyone made an ideal method for faceting ability stones? Seems like some computational modelling might work well here. Just wondering if this has already been done

[subtle helm]

there are many faceting calculators available online if you google. Here's one https://lostark.meta-game.gg/ability-stone-calculator

[modern beacon]

oh nice - thank you. that one looks pretty good

[radiant flame]

It is ultimately not very complex, given that each facet is an independent event. You will typically want to facet a wanted node over an unwanted node when the chance is greater than 50

[hot path]

is there any live tracking market data site for EUC?

[radiant flame]

For bis stones, you will ultimately need to succeed on some 45/35 and 25, but this will be in the later stages. But otherwise the calculators won’t typically tell you to do anything that is not otherwise logical

[subtle helm]

Lost Ark doesn't have an API so any market tracking is done via manual pulls. You can try something like https://www.lostarkmarket.online/europe-central/market/enhancement-material

[hot path]

that one i know but it's not quite accurate. i need prices to be 100% correct for my intentions. guess can't be helped but logging in each time i need to check then, thanks though

[sterile turret]

Does this mean mana for sorceress?

[flat dagger]

It means mana for any class that uses mana.

[sterile turret]

Okay ty

Mute Guardian or Unyielding Will as sorceress

[flat dagger]

#sorceress

[sterile turret]

Mute guardian right

[rain meadow]

that sounds like t2 stuff

[serene cloak]

which engraving are better for scrapper shock training or taijutsu?

[flat dagger]

#scrapper

Yes, area chat in the ocean or while in your Stronghold.

FYI, you can not buy collectibles from other people's merchant.

Yes.

[radiant flame]

Kind of two different playstyles. Both are completely fine endgame. Tai is very fast, consistent damage, easier to have good damage uptime, generally easier to play. Shock is more bursts, bigger numbers, but a bit slower, and more punishing if you miss your big spender attacks

Shock is, under perfect conditions, stronger, but the difference is not significant and player skill is a far bigger factor (as with any class)

[serene cloak]

so shock is more of an expert player engraving ?

[radiant flame]

No, I wouldn’t say so. It’s more difficult to play, I think, but you don’t need to be an “expert”

It’s all very marginal. And some people are just naturally good at being able to time bursts and manage resources.

Tai is a very easy playstyle, however. (But also incredibly fun)

[serene cloak]

alright i guess tai is the one for me then

[radiant flame]

Both are back attack classes

So you will need to consider that too - and that adds a complexity on its own.

[serene cloak]

will i newly made it as an alt and am doing the main quest story again for roster level so I'll learn as much as i could slowly while at it

[radiant flame]

Er you are levelling 1-50?

I do not recommend doing that. Just use powerpass or KT

[serene cloak]

hell nah rohendal+ XD

[radiant flame]

Ha okay. Yes sure.

I mean, no reason to not test stuff in trixion. But enjoy.

[flat dagger]

I did 0-50 5x

[prime juniper]

guys i want to ask a question if i want to go for collectibles for rooste exp what b est i can go for ?

i have farmed some in island soul like 30 and in giant hearts and will continue till my 3rd skill potion

[radiant flame]

Tome

[flat dagger]

You don't do collectibles for roster xp, you do it for the other rewards.

[prime juniper]

omnium star i am talking about world leaf rewards mokoko seeds

[radiant flame]

None of the collectibles give a lot

[prime juniper]

i did time till i got my skill potions

like for example ppl has compass and those below 2 items

[prime juniper]

idk what do they do or never bothered are they good goal for me to have + rooster exp ?

emblem/charm/compass

[radiant flame]

Charm is for life skills, from getting world leaves

[flat dagger]

They aren't needed, just rewards for horizontal content, which you again don't do for roster xp.

[radiant flame]

You can’t really farm that - it’s completely RNG. Just do life skills if you care

The emblem is PvP.

[prime juniper]

then what do i do for rooster xp

[radiant flame]

Alts, tome

[prime juniper]

my rooster xp is low i want at least 30 levels

[radiant flame]

Do your tome

[prime juniper]

tome to get 100% for every continent is exhausting cause of rapport

[radiant flame]

Make more alts

[flat dagger]

Tower on alts and adventure tomes, you don't need 100% completion.

[radiant flame]

Well, don’t know what to suggest

Tome without rapport is still quite a bit

[radiant flame]

You can do mokoko at the same time

I mean if you stuck at it, you can get everything apart from rapport done on everything to rohendel in maybe 10-15 hours

That will be, likely, at least 20-30 levels (assuming you’re currently quite low)

[prime juniper]

rooster is 88

[radiant flame]

The rapport is very easy in the early continents too

[prime juniper]

need 120 mokoko give what exp

problem in rapport i have no chests for epi legendary wasted all on nia for the omnium star

[radiant flame]

Ok, but just do everything else

Without rapport you should still get to 90% in every continent

[flat dagger]

What the hell do you need Lv. 120 for? There's nothing beneficial from it

[radiant flame]

Or close to 90

Probably wants to not get gated 🤷🏻‍♂️

[prime juniper]

i have 30 valtan runs and i cant join on either of alts cause rooster level

i cant get gold

need to improvise more when we talking about rapport u mean chests or like normal emote thing for every npc

[snow wadi]

Oh the irony
Advising him to farm mokokos so hes not gatekept from legion raids by the community

[radiant flame]

Just do your normal thing too obviously

[prime juniper]

@radiant flame and mokoko seeds for exp ? what is normal for rapport

[radiant flame]

I don’t know what you mean. The seeds do give some exp yes. I would just do them when I’m doing tome

[prime juniper]

i only did nia with 40 epic and 15 legendary box tbh idk anything abour rapport me wanted for cavasto npc too to get another giant heart

[radiant flame]

Because you’re going to be running around the same area

[flat dagger]

Stop worrying about your roster level, play the game and improve your skills. Tower will help with that quite a bit, and you can always make your own raid parties you know?

[prime juniper]

damn if i know that would have done them in punika

[radiant flame]

This too…

Though you should really do your tome because you’re missing a lot of skill points there

[prime juniper]

@flat dagger tbh i would like to be part of community and when i waste 5 hours searching for single valtan raid to get the 2.5k gold for my shadow alt became a problem

@radiant flame man i got all skill points i need from tome

i just miss one from omium /2 from giant heart / one from ignea tokens

o just want to set a goal u kn like to get it with some rooster exp

when i mentioned the compass / emblem/for 3rd one was like single goal for rooster as well like put a plan help me get some patience

but thanks for the advices i may look into the early tomes

[flat dagger]

@prime juniper What's your alt engravings looking like? 3x3/4x3/5x3?

[prime juniper]

3x3

[flat dagger]

There's your problem.

[static sable]

do these have any other use than converting them into theses stones?

[radiant flame]

🤦‍♂️

[flat dagger]

Once you hit Legion raids, people expect 4x3 from you, or you won't compete with most other players.

[pliant pivot]

if u already gotten 55 for gear conversion and the emotes no

[brave rapids]

Will we be getting any more +16 - +18 honing books any time soon?

[flat dagger]

Not sure why you expect us to know 😄

[pliant pivot]

nobody knows but we are getting a new event next week

[brave rapids]

Just wondering if there was any talked about events in the Roadmap

I really only remembered Brel release and the new classes

I guess the books were too specific of an ask lol

[pliant pivot]

next week mystic event

[silver stirrup]

does anyone know if i can walk through clown chains with arti's shield?

[flat dagger]

I'd ask in #artillerist.

[pliant pivot]

pretty sure the chains are treated as level 4 cc(grabs) so u cant walk through them with anything iirc some awakenings can go through them though not sure which awakenings

[wind grove]

Sup guys, just need a little help understanding engraving

If I have an engraving effect upgraded to rare, are all the green tomes for that effect useless now? Or they can be merged for higher quality or something of that sort?

[flat dagger]

You just upgrade the engraving book to give more nodes, that's it. If you have spare Hit Master Uncommon books and it's already rare quality, then they are useless yes and can be sold.

[wind grove]

Sorry explain more

Ahhh ok

[subtle helm]

Any engraving tombs for engravings you have already "unlocked" are functionally useless. Sell for silver, or trade in AH if they're tradable

[wind grove]

Alright, thank you guys

[regal valley]

If the build is already using crit as main stat to stack, would using adrenaline be overkill then?

[loud dagger]

Anyone know if u get character exp on the t1 and t2 tower? Or just roster exp?

[kindred spear]

so BT zerker better than mayhem overall

[shy yarrow]

pretty sure killing any mob gives xp but not sure

[static sable]

how much raw gold do you get out of a hard mode valtan

[shy yarrow]

adren 2 will always be better than say cd 2 so it really depends on your build

[regal valley]

ohh okay

[shy yarrow]

burst vs consistent dmg

[shy yarrow]

idk check the pins and info channels

[shell galleon]

Like 4500 if you buy no chests?

[kindred spear]

survivality?

[static sable]

thanks

[shy yarrow]

both around the same, bt wont be oneshot as easy ig

[hasty mesa]

lostwind cliff vs light of salvation, both at 12-piece awakening? should i still use LWC?

[rough prawn]

yes

[rain meadow]

99% of the time, yes use lwc

[flat dagger]

Until 18x yes.

[hasty mesa]

Thank you so much! ❤️

[crude karma]

I have never made any feasts, so which recipes are the endgame ones from all the ones i have in my research list?

[silver rain]

'Farm Feast: C'est La Viande' and 'Feast: The More the Merrier' depends on which mats you use to craft feast, farm mats or overworld

[crude karma]

[woeful acorn]

at what item level does argos stop giving gold?

[crude karma]

1475

[wraith basin]

1475

[raven night]

so I went to Gesboy amd was waiting at the waterfall, but the event time came and went and nothing ever started

[wraith basin]

stay at 1472.5 forever

[raven night]

what did I do wrong?

[wraith basin]

first gesbroy event is the bee stuff at the bottom of the map right

[modern beacon]

Are engravings worth spending a lot of gold on? I'm still quite a new player and thanks to all the events got to 1430 pretty quick with 21000 attack power. However, my engravings are lagging behind and every other raid someone comments about how terrible my engravings are. One 1370 support even refused to do the fox guardian raid with a bunch of 1420+ players since my engravings were not good enough. I've seen comments saying engravings are aesthetic and I am trying to get my engravings stacked better, but had a rough time with the drops so far. Just curious if it is worth spending a decent amount of gold on them at this stage.

[raven night]

I went to that grey symbol on the map that was at the waterfall

[pine oasis]

judgement pala main stat is?

[wraith basin]

I retract all my previous statements

[modern beacon]

lol

[crude karma]

Engravings are core gamplay system that you must use and invest into

unless all you want to do is horizontal content ofc

[pine oasis]

judgement pala main stat is?

[brave rapids]

At 1430, you should get 4x3 engravings (meaning 4 engravings at level 3).

You can sit at 4x3 up until 1475 basically, at which point you should at least strive for 4x3+1 or +2, with relic accessories for the raw stats upgrade.

[silver rain]

crit

[modern beacon]

thank you, what is a good thing to focus on first? buying more engraving books (only at +9 currently), buying accessories, buying more stones (have 5-7 stone now), etc? also should I focus more on just getting a bunch of the cheapest engravings that get me to 4x3 or also try to get high quality ones with the bonus stats for my build?

[rough prawn]

Whats ur roster ilv

[modern beacon]

75

[rough prawn]

No not that, whats ur ilvl on all 6 chars

[rain meadow]

it... really depends

[modern beacon]

oh - 1430, 1337, 1100 (bumping into T3 today), 600 (bumping into T2 today)

[rough prawn]

I would suggest u stick to 9 books for now and just go build a 4x3 on ur 1430

And then push everyone to at least 1415

[rain meadow]

^ deck out your 1430 first, assuming it's not a bard/paladin

[brave rapids]

wouldn't you want to hit main 1460 before pushing alts to 1415?

[rough prawn]

^^ yea do taht

Whats honing buff on again from 1302 to 1370? was it 1430?

[wraith basin]

get a stone that's 6/6 or better -> find 5 accessories in your stats that have class eng and another good engraving -> get +9 books to get four level 3 engravings

[brave rapids]

1385

[modern beacon]

yeah, I have the honing buff

[brave rapids]

There's another one at 1460. Get that first before pushing your alts from 1370 > 1415

[modern beacon]

oh nice

[brave rapids]

The cheapest 4x3 build is to get a 6/6 legendary stone, use the corresponding +9 books to match the Engravings on the stones for an easy 2x3. Then get the other 2x3 by buying +3 +3 accessories for 2 engravings across all 5 of your accessories. This usually runs less than 20k

[rain meadow]

id figure out the 1430's accessories/stone, then work on the 1337~>1370, while silently farming on the other 2

[rough prawn]

I would get every1 to 1370

[rain meadow]

one thing at a time lol, they're new

[modern beacon]

thanks for all the great advice! no worries - that all makes sense

[rough prawn]

When you get them to 1370 absolutely do not build them

[brave rapids]

I would get that 4x3 first on your 1430. It'll help you get accepted to Valtan/Vykas normal mode raids, which should be your main gold income until you have a larger roster.

[rough prawn]

and just go buy argos bus

[rain meadow]

either buy a bus or get your guild to trade bus

oh and remember to breathe

[modern beacon]

I've already done argos to first stage this week and didn't move to second stage - can I still jump back into second stage later?

[brave rapids]

Unfortunately not.

There's going to be an update soon that'll make it so you can jump back in, but I don't think we're getting it for a couple of months.

[rain meadow]

for argos specifically, until they unify the gates to 1385, once you claim loot, you're locked out for the week

[modern beacon]

at least for valtan unlocked G2 so it seems open for trying again once I get my engravings improved

[brave rapids]

Valtan and Vykas, you can re-enter after you leave each gate. Argos is currently unable to do that, so you have to do all 3 phases in 1 run. They're fixing it soon, but you're out of luck for this week.

[rough prawn]

can u post p screen

[brave rapids]

... 1300? Not 13000?

[wraith basin]

n

[rough prawn]

Usually 5 or 6 in dps if every1 is doing their job properly

[cloud pendant]

What do you mean 5 or 6?

[brave rapids]

Like 5th or 6th in damage out of an 8-man raid. You're above the supports

[rough prawn]

^^

[fair mantle]

I mean depends, if it's Valtan probably top 2

[rough prawn]

Hey if youre dps class and below supp then smth is very wrong

[fair mantle]

Gunlancer has stupid high uptime on Valtan

[rough prawn]

How do u still have argos gear in 1475 wtf

Gahdammmmm big money

I would ofc go transition to entropy and ur atk power would be normal by then, also get rid of atk power reduc on engraving

[brave rapids]

Your gear broken? Did you check that?

[rough prawn]

if its only 1/2 acc swap i would do that

isnt it js entropy gap tehn

[fair mantle]

You're probably on some island or equalised content or gear broken

My 1460 pally has 21k atk power

[brave rapids]

The background suggests he's in North Vern honing area

[pseudo atlas]

could just be a straight up visual display bug, have you restarted the game

[fair mantle]

Maybe visual bug hmm, maybe swap characters and back

[sick current]

what can I do with the tooki island scrap items?

[fair mantle]

It's a bug, nothing wrong engraving or gear or class wise

either swap char or take your gear out and re-equip

you can't get 5x3 at 1370 right? assuming rock is only 7 7

[silver rain]

did you recently did some sort of normalized contents? porlly visual bug after that might need to re launch the game

[wintry breach]

yeah, impossible

[modern beacon]

how important is attack power? I switched around some of my gear to have more maxed engravings but my attack power went from 21000 to 18000 just by changing around some accessories

[silent mortar]

should i hone my argos gear past 16?

[silver rain]

that 3000 is quite very noticeable

[maiden locust]

Yes

[livid mirage]

is there a website/source that shows the compass events for the day without having to log in?

[silent mortar]

reason? Just stats or smth i dont know?

[silver rain]

https://www.lostarktimer.app/en/alarms

[maiden locust]

At 1460 you gain the mats for relic gear 2x faster then at 1430

[silent mortar]

ah ok

how does honing transfer from leg to relic? 16-17-18 gives what levels?

[livid mirage]

Thank you!

[crisp turtle]

1:1

[maiden locust]

It's 1:1

[silent mortar]

ah, ty. So its just stats and set bonuses that are different

not like 1302 gear to argos gear where you get an ilvl boost

[crisp turtle]

yes

[silver rain]

yes

[maiden locust]

No that's st 1490 with brel gear

[modern beacon]

max upgrade level is higher with relic too, right? instead of capping at +20 you can go even higher

[silver rain]

did you relaunch the game?

[maiden locust]

Relic is +25

[brave rapids]

have you had a friend check your gear for you? maybe there's something you're not seeing

[crisp turtle]

you dont technically get an ilvl boost when transferring to argos gear, its just you go from +15 to +6.
Relic gear just stays at the same +. so +16 argos goes to +16 relic, and yes, relic caps at +25 instead

[modern beacon]

are your accessories counting as well?

[silent mortar]

ok so hone argos gear right away. Okey, next kinda unobvious question. When should i use honing bonus materials? Solar ones. And how? Do they have same efficiency?

[crisp turtle]

never use tradeable ones.
only use on your weapon, when you use them is up to you.
always save some to balance out artisans energy

[maiden locust]

Only use solars on weapon

[silent mortar]

hm. Why? Lower chance?

[crisp turtle]

weapon is much more expensive to hone

[silver rain]

hmm take off ALL your gear accs as well the re-equip then maybe go into challenge guardian raid and either wait 3 min then quit or song out with 10m GR penalty

[silent mortar]

or cuz its twice as expensive

armor does not give you secondary stats. Only accessories do.

[blissful solstice]

Is there spread sheets that show how many mats to move up in tiers?

[pseudo atlas]

they're talking about main stats, armor gives those

or is supposed to at least

[crisp turtle]

is it affecting your hp?

[modern beacon]

yeah, if I change my helmet my main stats change a lot

[silent mortar]

https://maxroll.gg/lost-ark/upgrade-calculator
that one is pretty self explanatory

[modern beacon]

if I take off gloves, my attack power goes down by 3200

[crisp turtle]

what happens to your hp when you take it off, does it stay the same?

[pseudo atlas]

i'm gonna go with this, try zoning into any synced content or change stats in trixion or something and then leaving

[silent mortar]

prepare for that after some time you will only move up in tears

[muted flicker]

is there a way to get the masterpiece 47 without doing the punika chaos gate?

[modern beacon]

not sure if that helps lol

[muted flicker]

so I can probably never get it then lol

[crisp turtle]

it just says secret dungeon, doesnt specify punika

[brave rapids]

why not?

[muted flicker]

it says punika chaos gate on maxroll and everywhere else I've looked at

[crisp turtle]

might be old.
masterpiece 51 specifically says Secret dungeon South vern

[brave rapids]

Punika and higher

[crisp turtle]

so, because it doesn't specify, i doubt it has to be punika

[muted flicker]

oh right

[worn heron]

Any idea how should i price this on EUC ?

[muted flicker]

Well I hope it does drop from the south vern maps since there's no one doing the punika gate on my server

[timber mauve]

I would put buyout at double the highest priced item with that roll assuming there’s no other 100 qual.

[modest ocean]

what is the best server in euc

i switched from euw to euc and i wanna pick one

[worn heron]

There is one with 13k and 93q which seems like too low not sure 😄

[worn heron]

I think most populated is Kadan and Zinnervale not sure

[modest ocean]

oh k ty

[crisp turtle]

kadan thirain or zinnervale

[timber mauve]

That means they’re not selling. Can’t see the future, but maybe prices will go up whenever abrel comes out with returning/new players trying to gear.

[edgy condor]

no clue if its forbiden to talk about stuff like this on this disc. but i need help if soemone knows where i could sell my LA account

discords/forums/sites idk anything works ?

[brave rapids]

That would probably be considered RMT, and not good to talk about around here.

[buoyant herald]

that's a ban delete that

[dapper geyser]

I just got kicked from kungelanium can anyone explain what the fucking nerds wanted from me?

[buoyant herald]

probably to use a nade XD

[brave rapids]

battle items?

[dapper geyser]

that's it?

[buoyant herald]

nr 1 does a flare 2 3 phero 4 corro

[brave rapids]

FPPC for kunga

Flare Phero Phero Corro 1234

[buoyant herald]

if you dont ppl usually vote kick i do too fuck yall cheapasses

[dapper geyser]

wow

I flare every time cuz like who tf cares but damn

[brave rapids]

if not FPPC, people usually call out P1/P2/Corro

[dapper geyser]

cheap is YOU bro sweating a battle item kekw

[buoyant herald]

sure m8

[brave rapids]

oh if you flare first i think its fine, usually someone random just flares

[pine scaffold]

does anyone know if the pass they gave out this time expire?

[pliant pivot]

it says it doesn’t but nobody really knows until next week

[buoyant herald]

it does expire next week XD

they always do

[dapper geyser]

idk it was a matchmaking game and they just started warning and flaming me

[pine scaffold]

i mean the patch note says it expires on the 26th but on selection screen says no duration

[pseudo atlas]

always except when they don't

[crisp turtle]

the ticket expires, the pass says it doesn't
but the patch notes says it will expire.

basically, we have no idea

[brave rapids]

maybe they were 3-man just looking to give someone shit?

[dapper geyser]

really didn't think the community sinked this low lol ppl never cried for yoho pheros

[crisp turtle]

because yoho was a tiny map

[brave rapids]

?!@?! YOHO

[pseudo atlas]

everyone doing kung got more anal over time and the ones who don't care just do deska

[wraith basin]

you're expected to contribute a battle item in kunga

[dapper geyser]

what's the deal tho the raid seems easy enough?

[crisp turtle]

because if you dont use any battle items, kunga fight takes like twice as long

[timber mauve]

Or longer

[pliant pivot]

yoho is a small map kung is different the map is bigger, you not using a item means another 1-2 minutes wasted trying to run to the boss

if ur so butt hurt about using a item go back to deska

[rain meadow]

Imagine caliligos

[dapper geyser]

nah sure ur right but idk I still don't mind using all the battle items like they give them out for free on every occasion, worst case they cost a penny I just didn't get why it's such a huge deal but I guess I'll never understand xd

[rain meadow]

No shame in doing deska tho, i never run turtle unless guildies need a 4th

[dapper geyser]

this community really gotta make everything a HUGE ass deal bruh shows nobody got a life

[timber mauve]

Because by not using one, you’re wasting people’s time because you want to save 1 gold or less.

[buoyant herald]

you will understand once you do it for a few months on 4+ chars it adds up im out of chests alr

[crisp turtle]

we just explained why its a big deal, because if noone uses any, the fight takes twice as long.
expecting 1 or 2 people to use all the battle items is just griefing, when as you said, you've got 100s of boxes of them.

[timber mauve]

Then again idk why anyone would mm then expect people to use battle items and such.

[dapper geyser]

ok then they better not be calling ppl cheap LOLL

[dapper geyser]

battle items are cheap af I don'T know why ppl CARE

[timber mauve]

It’s more about your mentality rather than literally. They’re saying you’re greedy, selfish, and don’t are about others.

[crisp turtle]

if they're cheap, why aren't you using them?
i dont understand what you're trying to say

[timber mauve]

This dude is a clown, I’m out.

[dapper geyser]

so they take an icy turtle fight with randos on an mmo personally? XDD worse than league

[brave rapids]

Just do deskaluda man ...

[dapper geyser]

nah like I didn'T know u needed pheros I was skipping on the raid for a while I just got kicked, that's where the convo started

[pliant pivot]

cuz it’s faster than using party finder with people gatekeeping and majority of the people who mm use items now, people who dont use it is in the minority

[dapper geyser]

or else I don't care bruh they're like 20 gold each plus I have like 200 chests xd

y'all gotta touch grass bruh im out

[wheat trench]

For a new player, can we still get either Feiton or Punika powerpass? Already got the use Vern

[pliant pivot]

if u have 200 chests use them that way u wont get kicked again

[pliant pivot]

feiton pass is long gone u still have a week to get the punika one

[pseudo atlas]

like half a week, kind of a rough grind if you're only at vern

[carmine current]

It’s called etiquette my g

[pure stratus]

Don't you need to do the berver quest line for the punika pass?

[pseudo atlas]

yeah that takes like 30 minutes

[wheat trench]

Thank you 🙏🏻 I just finished Yorn, should I skip Feiton to do Punika and grab the pass and come back later?

[pure stratus]

Wasn't that time gated too though? Or was that a different quest line

[pliant pivot]

if u want to

[pseudo atlas]

no

[loud dagger]

Fastest una task with shards?

[brave rapids]

they're all bad, rewards-wise

[silent mortar]

punika one is nice, where you need o pick up the towels. Its like 20 seconds

[loud dagger]

Yeah but i wanna stard getting shards insted of feiton leapstones on my main

[pliant pivot]

they are asking for the fastest one and they are worth doing if ur parking ur main

[loud dagger]

^

[pliant pivot]

i dont remember the names but one of them is in punika and the other is in nvern

[silent mortar]

Help Wanted at the Hot Springs is the punika one

[loud dagger]

Aight thanks

[gentle rivet]

Does it matter what class I pick for my first?

[pliant pivot]

the nvern one is located in fesner highlands not sure what the name is cuz im still doing leap dailies

[pliant pivot]

no

[gentle rivet]

Cool

[loud dagger]

Ohh that map is cursed

[pliant pivot]

u can always make another character later on

[loud dagger]

Oh the other is the forest the highland is faster

[pliant pivot]

just setup a bifrost near the yellow highlighted boss

[silent mortar]

how many leaps you need to have before stop doing those dailies?

[pliant pivot]

u stop doing leap dailies when you choose to park your main so either 1490 1500 1515 1520 the ilvl will be different from player to player

[gentle rivet]

So my priority for my first character should be getting to 50 right?

[pliant pivot]

yes and get all the way to this continent called north vern

[gentle rivet]

Alright also quick question I want to change my mouse key but it’s not letting me

[pliant pivot]

im not sure where it is but there is a checkbox to change it to left click to move and right click to attack

[gentle rivet]

Ye that check box just doesn’t exist for me

[pliant pivot]

look through the settings i would show you if i could

[regal valley]

Is this a one time thing or happens every time you use currency exchange to buy gold?

[pliant pivot]

all the time

[vast dew]

everytime

[regal valley]

lol

[wraith basin]

gold is super nerfed

[regal valley]

what is the point then, you buy gold to buy the item that is on the market right now not what COULD be on the market tomorrow lmao

[pliant pivot]

this is how they fight against bots

even though it just ruins player experience

[regal valley]

maybe they should just remove currency exchange all together and if people want outfits just have them spend real money for it then lol

[vast dew]

bc gold sellers were using rmters credit cards to buy gold and then reselling it back to rmters

[gentle rivet]

its just not there for some reason

[pliant pivot]

they dont care about the player experience everything they do makes it worse for players, people get false banned due to ags being too incompetent to tell if someone is rmting or not

[regal valley]

so if I buy an outfit and sell it on the market, would the gold I get from that have this restriction?

[vast dew]

a big reason why ppl play this game is bc u can buy skins w out spending money. especially kids who dont have a card lol

[pliant pivot]

iirc it’s near the bottom not sure which tab it is though

[pliant pivot]

no but the outfit has a 3 day restriction on it before u can sell it

[regal valley]

LUL

[gentle rivet]

Ah ok thx

[regal valley]

so I have to beg for gold like slicker then promise to pay back in a couple days?

[vast dew]

i believe u could also change the mouse by clicking crtl + scrolling w out having to go into settings

[gentle rivet]

Nah I was trying to change the right click left click attack thing

[vast dew]

ahhh ok

[gentle rivet]

Thx for the tip tho

[vast dew]

[pliant pivot]

u get banned if u borrow gold just saying

speaking from experience

[maiden locust]

?

only if its rmt gold

[wraith basin]

loan gold to new players

[pliant pivot]

their mailing system sucks i got banned for apparently rmting a few days ago and you can find many other posts of people getting banned after selling gems

[regal valley]

[vast dew]

i sent gold back n forth thru the mail w my friends all the time. havent gotten banned yet

[regal valley]

hey it's me your friend

[maiden locust]

same i lend gold to my friends all the time

[vast dew]

[vast dew]

u charge them interest? cause i do

[pliant pivot]

i got lent gold a few days ago and i got banned you dont have to believe me but it sucks when u get false banned the appeal option is useless and they tell you to give them evidence when they have all the evidence that they need to prove that you didnt violate their tos

[dapper geyser]

do thronespire challenge levels give roster xp?

[pliant pivot]

iirc they do

[vast dew]

ik it sucks. to put so many hours into the game just to get banned. the friend mightve been an rmter and somehow u got dragged into it idk

[pliant pivot]

nah he 100% did not rmt he got extremely lucky that week showed like 5 different accessories that he got that sold

[silent mortar]

save fused leapstone for when? For weapon? If im a paladin 1430 rn

[pliant pivot]

u save it for brel relic

convert the fused leaps 5:1 and get some free taps on the brel relic piece

[maiden locust]

hes 1430

[silent mortar]

what's brel lol

[storm socket]

which island gives the fastest and most harmony shards?

[pliant pivot]

ok? he should still save the fused leaps for it

[timber elk]

is paying 3.5k for a vykas normal worth?

[crisp turtle]

16-17 is the last time they're worth using

[maiden locust]

no you only get 3.3 from the raid

[pliant pivot]

next legion raid we get brelshaza

[timber elk]

how much is box at end?

[maiden locust]

1200 something like that

[silent mortar]

tbh vykas busses are expensive AF and i dont even know why. Valtan and argos leave you some gold for that, but people are charging a lot for vykas

[timber elk]

I was told to push to 1430 to do normal vykas, I cant seem to find any learning groups

[maiden locust]

make your own

or watch a guide and join a normal group

[storm socket]

do we have a guide or something that shows which island does ahve which rewards?

[silent mortar]

oh neat. Hope her raid will be outstanding. Her dungeons after rohendel left me with O_O face. My god, that lazer sound it satisfying.

[solemn sapphire]

should I delete my glaiv and make a surgeblade

[maiden locust]

her raid is the best one in the game visually

[pliant pivot]

if u dont like glav and want to play db yeah

[maiden locust]

in december

[pliant pivot]

yes

[solemn sapphire]

yea I got her to 1370 a while ago and just left her

[silent mortar]

play with what you like. Do not run after meta. If you will play very good on a character that you enjoy you will have both more fun AND dps while playing it

[merry reef]

for something to be dismantled does it need to match all this criteria or only 1? for example if something is relic 10 quality but I say dismantle quality under 20 but rank only epic and below, would it dismantle?

[maiden locust]

its in the roadmap

[pliant pivot]

https://www.playlostark.com/en-gb/news/articles/end-of-2022-roadmap#ags-MediaPopup

[buoyant herald]

not like its news 😄 everyone was guessing brel release to be around winter holidays since the day of release 😄

[silent mortar]

what unas to do on alts?

[buoyant herald]

lopang

[silent mortar]

is there any list of exactly what unas to do?

[buoyant herald]

yeah
the list
lopang
lopang
lopang

[silent mortar]

can you link it please? i hadnt found it

ok 😄

[lament bay]

• get denied on pug lobbies*

[silent mortar]

but i need collectables. Skill points etc

[buoyant herald]

you get denied for a shit build or tryhaders going for synergy

[merry reef]

Depends on how far are you in the game I would personally do leapstones instead of loopang if u are not too far

[buoyant herald]

then you just do them all order doesnt matter too much

[silent mortar]

make your own. Apart from other MMORPGs group finder is quite good here and people join groups frequently. You dont sit for 3 hours in group finder like in WoW, for example, trying to get an adequate dps

[lament bay]

yea i'm usually a lobby leader now. that works fine

[worn heron]

Anyoen got link to video where some gunslinger main is sweating as this guy on picture, then it switches to some i think destryoer and there is video of straemer singing and having chill time

[wraith basin]

there's so many different videos like that always gunslinger then another class

[worn heron]

I cannot find any 😄

[chrome brook]

I saw asmongold-zerker vs bard i think

[worn heron]

Ye the ting is i want to show to my friend which has no clue what i am talking about and for the love of god i cannot find any video with that sweaty guy vs singing streamer 😄

[chrome brook]

https://www.reddit.com/r/lostarkgame/comments/vjm9fc/rhapsody_of_lightmp4/

[silent mortar]

play time to hunt. It was buffed for like 30% not so long time ago. Most of the koreans gunslingers are on time to hunt as a heard

[worn heron]

Wtf ? 😄

[pliant pivot]

it was gunslinger vs soulfist https://www.reddit.com/r/lostarkgame/comments/xn10wz/how_it_feels_playing_gunslinger_vs_playing/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

[worn heron]

Thanks broskys

[pliant pivot]

the buff wasnt that much

[worn heron]

Am not asking to play the gunslinger tho, i just wanted the meme video 😛 hehe

[silent mortar]

nah, my point that it was buffed pretty hard and its very close to a peacemaker right now. It's ~5% difference. But it is literally like on that video if you compare the playstiles.

you miss out on shotgun skills tho and they are JUICY, animations and sound i mean

[pliant pivot]

they got a 10% crit buff that was it the other buff was for gunslinger as a whole, tripod change/buff for bullet rain and catastrophe

[dreamy wyvern]

I'm brand new to Lost Ark (NA West) and was trying to get to Luterra Castle. Is there a way to get there quickly, or do I have to follow the main story to gain access?
