[inland pebble]

the more times you complete the storyline quests, the more times you can knowledge transfer other characters

comes down to how many alts you want etc

[dull trench]

eventually I will want a few, but still trying to find a main

[inland pebble]

it's ideal you use powerpass on classes you know you will be interested in, so you don't boost a character and then waste it

[simple flicker]

yo havent played for a long time, is the new tripod system good? cant use the broken armor thingy now?

[inland pebble]

it's very good, and yes you can still use those, but you can't get them anymore so use em til they're gone

tripods aren't bound to gear anymore, they're perma character unlocks

[dull trench]

dont know so far I have SS, WD and SF

WD and SF feel kinda meh, they do say it gets better at 1400+ but damn thats a lot of investment to start enjoying a class

[inland pebble]

better usually just means more relative damage, some classes might improve on cooldowns to be faster gameplay, but if you don't like the class innately then it won't change things

[crisp turtle]

You've got two of the classes that are notorious for requiring relic sets to feel good to play
Is just unfortunate choices

[dull trench]

What class is kinda alright from the get go?

[crisp turtle]

Scrapper

[inland pebble]

IMO all of them, but people have different expectations

[main bronze]

hey guys, I really want to get into the game but I heard so much bad stuff currently and the player count is going down too... Does anyone think this game will last a few years if this continues ?

[inland pebble]

player count is still very high, there's not much "bad stuff", no harm in trying the game

[dull trench]

It's free, just try it out

Main thing is you have fun, not what others say

[main bronze]

steam had 170K players when I looked and 100K are easily bots from what I've heard, could be false info but I'm just scared to dedicate too much time since I love doing horizontal content

[crisp turtle]

For wd and sf, it's not just more damage
It goes from being a complete misery to play, to actually functioning as a class
Big difference

[dull trench]

As mentioned, try it out, if you enjoy yourself then the time invested was worth it.

[dull trench]

I'm sick of auto canceling

[crisp turtle]

Weirdest take ever

Dedicate time if its fun
If its not fun, stop playing

[dull trench]

I played on release and stop playing becouse there where too many people

[main bronze]

no I know it's fun I love the game, I just dont like getting myself into a game when It's currently in a not so good state and possibly even worse in the next months

[dull trench]

25k queue times 🤬

[dull trench]

Games not going anywhere, and it has a loyal fanbase

And isn't every game like that? even Sologames you invest 20h clear the game and never touch it again, and it costs 70€

[main bronze]

Okay, thanks for the replies :)
Yeah but I know that those games won't last long, however with Lost Ark there's so much you can do and I'd be sad if the game would die while im really in it. I can't properly word what I meant mb

[dull trench]

well thats a gamble like with any other game

play, have fun, if it dies F in the chat, find something else. But we still have a lot of unreleased content in the west

[inland pebble]

Don't be paranoid about it, have fun play game

[main bronze]

True True but for example, games like FF14 are less likely to die all of a sudden in comparison to Lost Ark especially with all the shit that's going on. But I get your point you're right

[inland pebble]

Neither are anywhere close to dying

[dull trench]

just remember the first few weeks its going to be like a solo RPG, while catching up to the latest content

[dull trench]

thats only becouse p2w mechanics. West hates p2w, but there is BDO still active after 5 years

[main bronze]

good point

[dull trench]

You should probably stop watching asmongold and play yourself

[main bronze]

ngl lost ark ruined others mmos for me. WoW and FF14 are so sleeper after I played LA

[main bronze]

I've seen Asmons gameplay, his kakul run especially, never laughed so hard in my life

[dull trench]

He gives the game a lot of shit, still plays almost everyday

[main bronze]

Wait Asmon still playing lost ark ?

[dull trench]

so create your own opinions

[dull trench]

off stream yes

[main bronze]

oh wow okay

[dull trench]

so i can use these to hone another class, and then just complete rohendel again

[main bronze]

if they're roster bound yis

[vagrant kestrel]

Started playing on a new server on which I haven’t played before. But I don’t get the mokoko challenge icon and not the thing after my name. But other new players have it. Have I done something wrong?

[dull trench]

well one just says bound and the other one doesnt say anything

[main bronze]

you can try to drag them to your roster inv

if it works you can

[dull trench]

ye character bound

feelsbadman..

[main bronze]

leapstones from guardian raids are roster bound

[dull trench]

nah they are from island quests

just wanted to hone a new class to 460, to keep following the guide

[errant minnow]

what are the materials to create the new fusion material for brel?

[cold olive]

I'm 1430 gear, what should I do now?

[main bronze]

you unlocked Vykas normal Mode

[main bronze]

same iirc, you're talking about basic oreha etc right ?

[errant minnow]

yea but the new one that we will have with brel

[main bronze]

should be the same stuff, fish and excavating etc

[errant minnow]

alright

[crisp turtle]

The boxes you get from island quests are roster bound
But when you open them, the materials are character bound
So only open what you need, keep the rest in boxes

[crisp turtle]

Same materials, just need more of them

[dull trench]

I already opened them to hone the wardancer kekw

Hopefully they are not hard to comeby

[hollow quiver]

On building alt characters i find its easier to do something like this to make the 4x3 is this a bad practice? If yes why?
( considering i don't have any +12 book )

[unkempt breach]

its bad because u are forcing urself to buy 5kbw/3 grudge

[frigid flare]

what was the igniter sorceress trick to do a double i think explosion or doomsday? also is it worth waiting for the bar to get full for bigger dmg?

[unkempt breach]

the class pieces arent too bad if u look for 3/3's

[unkempt breach]

igniter the bar HAS to be full to get the buff

[hollow quiver]

So going for all legndary?

That would save a lot of peons..

[unkempt breach]

no, u can look for relics because pinnacle is a spec class, and benefits alot from stats

[frigid flare]

what about the double-cast trick?

[unkempt breach]

but if ur ring has to be legendary, its better than earring or neck

[unkempt breach]

cast doomsday, THEN ignite

[frigid flare]

tyvm

[unkempt breach]

while the doomsday is still in the air

[rain meadow]

cast doomsday, then use arcane rupture when the meteor is still falling, do your cycle, cast doomsday again and pray your doomsday lands in time

[unkempt breach]

u will need to have either swift stat or a lvl 8 cd gem to do this however

[hollow quiver]

Hmmm that is a very goood point, and then down the line just replace all 5 to get 5z3 ?

[frigid flare]

i got 494 switf is it ok?

[unkempt breach]

that is good 👍

[rain meadow]

try it in trixion

[unkempt breach]

u wont nessecarily have to replace all 5, if u find some good pieces u can just keep them

[faint roost]

How much virtue stat do you need to get trusted with sasha? Is it 260,or 310?

[unkempt breach]

there is a way to skip the virtue check if u are just looking for the giants heart

however, you will need some relic rapport chest

[hollow quiver]

hmmm i see, Thank you!

[faint roost]

Im 300+ every virtue, except charisma, just need to know if it 260 which is doable compared to 310 much harder.

[unkempt breach]

you will need 310 of each

[faint roost]

So same as ninevah

[whole escarp]

How long does it take from like a completely new account to get to 1360

[unkempt breach]

3-4 days

[whole escarp]

really?

[unkempt breach]

depends on how diligent you are

[whole escarp]

damn it took me like 4 weeks from release to get to that

[unkempt breach]

yes, if you play diligently it should take 3 days

[whole escarp]

I stopped playing for a while and want to get back into it, just don't like my current class and feel stressed lol

[pseudo atlas]

material cost was cut dramatically and honing success rate is 100% until t3

[whole escarp]

and I wanna switch servers

[whole escarp]

Yo sick

[unkempt breach]

not only that, there is a express event right now that will carry you to 1445 easily

[whole escarp]

Whats good to be at now?

[unkempt breach]

which unlocks ur first hard legion raid

[pseudo atlas]

not much reason to switch servers

[unkempt breach]

maybe ping issues?

[pseudo atlas]

that'd be regions

[unkempt breach]

ohhhhh

[whole escarp]

yeah that's waht I meant

[unkempt breach]

yea thats what I was thinking too

[whole escarp]

I started playing on NA east to play with my guild back during release but I'm on west

[unkempt breach]

I see...

[whole escarp]

also just want a fressh start yknow?

[pseudo atlas]

go nuts then, not many better times to restart

[unkempt breach]

however

NAW is in a really weird spot rn

[whole escarp]

oh is it?

[unkempt breach]

their blue crystal prices are through the roof

[whole escarp]

So is east better?

[unkempt breach]

I wouldnt say its better, since ping matters alot, but there is a much smaller audience in west

[whole escarp]

I never really ran into ping issues on east, just thought if I was gonna full restart it would be better to play on home region

[unkempt breach]

from in turn leads to fewer things on the market

[vestal gate]

https://i.imgur.com/XjZOBwK.png Is it normal that cursor is this much off??? look how far above my guy is shooting

[unkempt breach]

ah this is a setting in the game

[vestal gate]

wait really

[unkempt breach]

u want to turn off cursor aim in settings

[whole escarp]

alr think I'll stick with east then, does buying any of the starter packs help?

[unkempt breach]

cursor aim makes the game correct your aim towards the target @vestal gate

[vestal gate]

It didnt work sadly, its still the same, I am just shooting into thin air, no enemys close

[pseudo atlas]

the point it's aiming at is based on your character position, if you trace a line from the center of your character on the floor to your cursor it'd be parallel to the bullet projectile

[vestal gate]

https://i.imgur.com/1csIywF.png

[unkempt breach]

I can't really help u with the starter packs thing since I never bought them, but I would buy the ark pass first

[vestal gate]

its same on both sides and below, if I aim straight up it will be right at the pointer https://i.imgur.com/wLZxKeI.png

[whole escarp]

Alright, do I just regularly level to 50 then do whatever

[vernal copper]

anyone have high system (kernel) usage while playing lost ark or any EAC game recently?

[unkempt breach]

yup, in punika there will be a quest you need to do called "berver's friend"

[frigid flare]

do merchants stay up for 25 or 30mins?

[unkempt breach]

which will give you a punika powerpass which u can use to bring another character to 1302

incase u dont like ur class

[pseudo atlas]

yes because if you aim left and right your gun has a vertical displacement, your cursor aims at the floor and the projectile travels in the air above the floor

[silver rain]

x.30 till x.55

[whole escarp]

Any better NAE server to pick? I was previously on Una

[echo owl]

i mean una is fine

[pseudo atlas]

i wouldn't change servers in the same region

[echo owl]

but yeah there’s that issue

[whole escarp]

well I'm wanting to get a fresh start

[echo owl]

make a new steam

[rain meadow]

[pseudo atlas]

you start over and you don't get any of the region-locked rewards like vern powerpasses and maybe other stuff

[echo owl]

which also has its own problems like verified trusted status

[pseudo atlas]

whereas the una server is probably just fine

[vestal gate]

that sucks

[pseudo atlas]

well you had best get used to it, there are a whole lot of projectiles in the game

[vestal gate]

I mean pve its not really a issue, but for pvp its driving me nuts to constantly correct

[tulip copper]

for anyone getting stuck at "running" or "stopping" state; if you exit the steam completely wait for 30mins to an hour (depending on the setup) the game will actually stop. after you launch the game it may ask you to reinstall eac but either way you are good to go until you get disconnected, which causes this issue in the first place

if anyone comes asking for a fix please refer to this, maybe it will help them

[pseudo atlas]

i've also had issues with stuff like snowpang snowballs and i know others who have a hard time adjusting, it's also a real pain in stuff like yorn abyss dungeon

it's only an issue with dodging though, if you're shooting then you just aim at them with the cursor and it should hit if they don't dodge

[frigid flare]

as in instance starts at 1.30 ends at 1.55 right?

[silver rain]

yep

[umbral belfry]

Hey all. I cant find my ships blueprint*. i finished the lopang and hypnos unas. It looks like i claimed the reputation rewards. but I dont see the blueprints anywhere? Do I need to craft them at a NPC? Why are they still locked

[vernal copper]

so there is an EAC problem right? cause it is fucking my cpu temps

[crisp turtle]

If you just sit and do nothing for 30mins to an hour, and hope it just starts working in the mean time
I wouldn't call that a "fix"

[vernal copper]

okay I have the same problem

[tulip copper]

give another term for momentary fixes then

[edgy imp]

if you have a 12 book, you can get away with using blanks, like so:

[umbral belfry]

what is this site?

[edgy imp]

ArkTool app. it's on iOS and Android. has different features, but i just use it for Acc planning and tracking rapport

[river ravine]

is lost ark down

[edgy imp]

i did something like that with my SoulFist. will prolly need a 12 book, as i used two blanks.

[dapper geyser]

can you spacebar jump through Vykas g1 color orb without breaking it?

[silver rain]

probably not the orbs are fragile af

[merry atlas]

lost stopping

[coral umbra]

anyone found way to close lost ark client, I tried to end task lostark.exe in task manager and it kept saying access denied, and when I try to start lost ark it says app is running

[timber mauve]

Idk, lemme ask a dev real quick.

[river ravine]

so a programmer

[timber mauve]

They told me to go have sex with myself

[idle needle]

almost like you could do trial and error yourself

[river ravine]

imma go ask jeff bezos he has connections

[dull trench]

ye, just write every word individually

you will eventually find the error

ok lets take it down a notch, so far nobody knows here, try every word on its self

for example Ace is an innapropiate word, dont ask me why

it's called sarcasm, and its pretty common nowadays, laugh or ignore, engaging in a heated discussion doesnt help

[idle needle]

It would have taken you less time to try it yourself than argue on the internet, but here we are

[dull trench]

anyway moving on now to greener pastures

how is arcana in t1-t2

[timber mauve]

Horrible. Arcana without enough spec is like playing gunslinger with no guns.

[dull trench]

ffs this game doesnt like me

[crisp turtle]

You said you had a sharpshooter right?

[dull trench]

ye

ss, wd and sf

[crisp turtle]

Ss is fine through all early content

[dull trench]

and sucks in late content

[crisp turtle]

Stop reading tier lists

[dull trench]

nah im not interested in tier list

[crisp turtle]

So why do you think it sucks in late content

[hard cradle]

which 2 book i need to read for surge db and i dont wanna buy expensive necklaces which is best idea for engraving books

[dull trench]

ye as a first pick I was always tempted between SS and Deadeye, im a simp for aesthetics tho, and deadeye sucks at that

[maiden locust]

Woohoo, failed honing 14 times and spent 5k gold on materials... I love RNG

Are they planning to change honing a bit?

[shy chasm]

no

thats just how it is

[thin token]

breh if u are upset for only 5k gold in honing, good luck later on

[shy chasm]

just wait till you see how much it is to pity on +22 up

[maiden locust]

This game is definition of throwing money at the problem lmao

[idle needle]

Why would they change honing? That's exactly how the system was designed. At least there is a pity system in this game, unlike others

[pine zenith]

Hello,

i've just back to the game after 4-5 months break i guess, i just want to ask

my main char is ( Mayhem lvl 1415 )
should i use event on it, and continue with it
or use it on my ult scrapper lvl 1310 atm

thanks ^^

[silver rain]

5k for 14 taps now 5k can barely cover 1 tap

[thin token]

and pro tip, dont buy materials just farm / use bounded leapstones

[maiden locust]

I had farmed a lot, 5k is for materials not counting cost of honing ☠️

[idle needle]

If you think 5k is a lot, then go play around with the upgrade calculator and see how much the later levels cost: https://maxroll.gg/lost-ark/upgrade-calculator

+22 wep alone is 36k gold on average just to tap, not counting mats

[maiden locust]

Well, time for some rmt

[silver rain]

use event on alt and bring them to 1415 then switch back to main after alt 1415 i think you can do that

cuz express honing buff starts after 1415

[maiden locust]

Well... 100k gold should be enough from 1430 to 1445

I can hope at least

[fiery zinc]

where is best fishing spot?

[crisp turtle]

Any spot in punika or s vern

[crisp turtle]

Easily, but you won't be able to buy anything with it for 3 days

[maiden locust]

Who said I'm buying gold from Amazon? 👀

[crisp turtle]

That's a surefire way to get your ass banned from the discord

[echo owl]

just add jk and youre good to go

[maiden locust]

Is transfering gold from your account to your account on other server also against TOS?

[crisp kettle]

Anyone on Azena that has conviction or judgement in there stronghold?

[fiery zinc]

Do you need requirements to equip better life skill tools? and are they worth trying to craft?

[silver rain]

not sure about AGS ToS but the Koreans do it tho not publicly

[maiden locust]

Well, better be sure then sorry. Imma read TOS

[crisp turtle]

Official stance is one account

[silver rain]

no but unless you get lvl30 tradeskills i suggest holding off crafting legendary/relic tool Epic is fine

[fiery zinc]

how to make epic tool?

[silver rain]

Stronghold crafting

[tranquil nebula]

when the islands say they appear at 12:50 they mean in game time not my time???

[fiery zinc]

Unless your real life time matches exactly with the in-game time, they are always referring to in-game.

[tranquil nebula]

welp

f me i guess time to wait 3 hours

[cedar nexus]

does the skin on my reaper can be used on my deathblade at the same time?

[silver rain]

if its not subclass exclusive or char bound

[cedar nexus]

uhm its assassin exclusive and its bound to roster. But it isnt showing on my skin storage since my reaper is using it

[silver rain]

oh you mean it like that no gotta unequip on reaper put in storage and take out for DB

[cedar nexus]

Ohhh i see i see so it's impossible to equip it on both char. Thank you man

[silver rain]

yep unless you have 2 of them

[sonic finch]

Hey guys i wonder if those chests will contain the new leapstones (Brel ones) with the upcoming update ?

[wooden forge]

Hello, I have a problem with the lost ark, I see it is opening in Stean, it appears in the Task Manager

[inland pebble]

Is rested bonus t3 chaos dungeon always more material drops than a non-rested 1475 chaos dungeon?

[inland pebble]

Need more info on what your computer is? windows? does it close? does it just hang?

should probably try repairing the installation in steam

[wooden forge]

Windows 10 64bis Rx550 16giga de memoria Ram

Windows 10 64 bit Rx 550 16 gig of RAM

[bronze lance]

Do u see the splash screen

[inland pebble]

I would try verify integrity in steam

make sure your graphics card driver is up to date and if you're on a laptop it's using the primary GPU

[wooden forge]

it seems that several people have this problem I do Live there are a lot of people complained I said I think the problem is Stean's

[bronze lance]

It could be an eac problem too

Make sure other software is closed

And do a repair like what crevox said

[tulip copper]

do you also have the game running at all times? and then get stuck at stopping?

[silver rain]

its the same with Chaos dungeon

[wooden forge]

after pressing it closes inside nor does the antichid open in Managed and Terefas

[inland pebble]

? I don't think that's what I asked

[silver rain]

then yes rested always drop more than non rested

[crisp turtle]

are you asking if a rested chaos dungeon gives more loot than a non-rested chaos dungeon?

ofcourse it does

[vernal copper]

@wooden forge lots of people have this problem, you have restart your computer

[inland pebble]

I'm asking if a rested 1302 chaos dungeon drops more materials than a non-rested 1475 chaos dungeon

[vernal copper]

It is probably an eac problem

[tulip copper]

it is an eac problem and restarting shit doesnt help with shit

[wooden forge]

Yes, I already restart the computer and it only revolves when it restarts

[crisp turtle]

no
also there isnt a 1302 chaos dungeon
but still no

[silver rain]

#info-dump message referencing to this chart i'd say no

[inland pebble]

that chart doesn't have 1302

[edgy imp]

doubt, but idk why you would. you're basically giving up lv4/5 tripods, chance at Relic accs, and GHLs

[inland pebble]

It's not about why, I'm just asking

[edgy imp]

you most likely won't, and you will get inferior drops

[crisp turtle]

you get more silver, but thats it

[inland pebble]

I wonder what the breakpoint is then
when a rested dungeon becomes better than 1475

[minor crown]

why would you do a lower dg when 1475 has more chance at better rewards?

[crisp turtle]

1325-1340

[minor crown]

and later with 1490 it can drop bracelets

[inland pebble]

Don't worry about "why", I have my reasons for asking

[inland pebble]

Thanks, that sounds about right

[raw fulcrum]

Anyone know what to do with this? Like planned update on 17.12.

[azure lintel]

Whats a sorc build that doesnt guzzle potions?

[fossil sluice]

all of them

[azure lintel]

all of them what? guzzle potions?

[fossil sluice]

if ur talking about raids then none of them guzzle potions

[minor crown]

just dodge

[runic tundra]

will they remove pheon system anytime soon ?

[thin token]

there is no life-steal in this game so i mean like if u dont get hit u dont use potion if u get hit then u use potion... lol

[minor crown]

considering it's still applied in KR, their main region, I don't think they ever consider it

[inland pebble]

No plans to ever remove pheons

[fossil sluice]

im seeing a lot of ppl have this same issue, but how do i make steam close lost ark when i just opened my computer, i restarted steam and verified files already

[thin token]

someone said crtl + alt + delete > sign out of user > sign back in workd for them

[minor crown]

not sure if it'll work but some guy on forums said to go into EAC folder and run the repair on itself

[runic tundra]

should i save my fused leapstone ?

[inland pebble]

supposedly they're better for brel gear, so if you can, sure

[fossil sluice]

this did not work for me 😔 ty

[fossil sluice]

how should i repair this folder?

[crisp turtle]

depends what level your gear is

[runic tundra]

my ilvl is 1462 , weap 19 other is 18

[crisp turtle]

keep using them

[wraith garnet]

is karta server still bugged down and unplayable ?

[silver rain]

...\Steam\steamapps\common\Lost Ark\Binaries\Win64\EasyAntiCheat run the set up

[fossil sluice]

mathematically its still worth to use fused leaps until +21, but scarcity of brel mats is generally a bigger reason to save

[crisp turtle]

til +20, shouldn't be using to attempt to go +21

[runic tundra]

use it on weap only ?

[fossil sluice]

u should just use it on whichever u feel

i am getting this error 😔

[inland pebble]

the use count of them is all relative

make sure hard drive isn't full and run as admin

[silver rain]

did you run as admin?

[fossil sluice]

yes

[silver rain]

also exit steam

[wary panther]

How to activate Wei? cx isnt working for me

[fossil sluice]

doesnt work still 😔

[inland pebble]

repair file integrity

[crisp turtle]

Ctrl + X

[wary panther]

oh god I've been pressting C + X q_q

[inland pebble]

[runic tundra]

should i use my fused leapstone on weapon only ?

[fossil sluice]

via steam?

[inland pebble]

yes

[fossil sluice]

did that already doesnt work 😔

[silver rain]

restart PC and do that step again

[inland pebble]

then read forum or reinstall game, don't know what else to say

[wooden forge]

I'm installed to see if it solves this problem but I also sent Support to Stean to see this and some problem with Stean's Client

[crisp turtle]

you can use them on whatever, either armor or weapon
just stop when you get to 1490

[silver rain]

wihtout opening steam

[inland pebble]

doesn't matter, the use cost of them is relative

[edgy imp]

lemme know if the repair works for you, @fossil sluice nvm, i scrolled down.

[fossil sluice]

restarting the second time worked for me 💀

[thin token]

armor is probably better because weapon uses so many like 1 weapon tap = 3 armor tap attempts

[timber root]

yes what can i help u with wiyz?

[crisp turtle]

did you... just search your own name
and reply to a random comment from like 2 weeks ago

[wary panther]

[thin token]

lol

[woven totem]

excuse me, should l spend on this?

[thin token]

if u need card space yea

[polar jungle]

does anyone know the recipe for the new oreha mats?

[crisp turtle]

same as current mats, just uses more of them

[crisp turtle]

makes x20

[brave rapids]

You got alts? Just bank your extra cards in alt banks. You won't need catalogue space until you're committing to the insane amount of card XP needed to awaken everything. Or just delete cards if you don't care to awaken every card in the game

[runic tundra]

if i clear rehearsal easily , will i able to clear normal ?

[minor crown]

no

[thin token]

no lol

[minor crown]

rehearsal misses most the important mechs

[thin token]

yea rehearsal is like pretty different from actual raid

[runic tundra]

looks like learning party is necessary yes ?

[uneven robin]

[ionic kraken]

hi guys I will be starting new andI was wondering which server to start on eu central ?

[thin token]

yes dont try to join a re-clear group without knowing the actual normal clown raid fight. Either look for a learn party or try to create your own @runic tundra

[runic tundra]

okay will do , thanks for the reply

[brave rapids]

I think most people suggest playing on Zinnervale server? might wanna ask on the EUC Region Chat

[ionic kraken]

cant find it man

[minor crown]

#navigation

[brave rapids]

#eu-central-region-chat

he has the role

[minor crown]

server channels are under Lost Ark Media channels

[dull trench]

@crisp turtle should I go DS or LC?

[crisp turtle]

whatever you prefer
i play lc just cos its chill

[dull trench]

whats the major difference?

[brave rapids]

DS is a burst build. LC is a consistent DPS build.

[ionic kraken]

is there a best class ?

or a class that is must on end game content at raids etc ?

[crisp turtle]

yes
bard and paladin

[ionic laurel]

Should I commit to reflux or igniter?

[crisp turtle]

is there a best dps class? must have dps class?
no
all dps classes are capable of clearing all content, the difference between them is negligible and player skill has a much higher impact than what class you're playing

so play what you find fun

[ionic kraken]

any pack that is worth buying ?

[brave rapids]

pack for what? just in general? from the F4 shop?

[ionic kraken]

in general yeah from steam for example or f4 shop

are powerpasses worth it ?

[brave rapids]

if you dont care about the game's story, then yeah. I personally didn't care that much for the story, i just play for raid content and grind

it just skips you up to a certain ilevel, skipping all the stories in-between basically.

[ionic kraken]

rohendel or vern pass
?

shinnnra tensei

[blazing plover]

anyone know how much combat exp legion raids give?

[brave rapids]

They're both pretty much the same. I'd recommend the North Vern or the South Vern pass. South Vern is the most expensive pass, and it'll push you to the final continent, skipping pretty much all the "early game". North Vern is the cheapest pass, and it'll pretty much just put you at the bare minimum ilevel to start doing dailies - it just skips the level 1-50 grind pretty much

[dull trench]

so I used all my harmony leapstones on my wardance and now I can get SS to i460

[ionic kraken]

I see so rohendel is a bit of waste ?

[dull trench]

rohendel not worth it, you can complete it in like 2h. Just get vern

[brave rapids]

Not entirely, but it saves like 2 hours only compared to North Vern pass lol

[dull trench]

South vern not worth it either imho, like you can get to that level in a week or so

but ye if you want it now, its still pretty expensive 50E

[brave rapids]

Starts feeling "worth it" after you've done every continent 8 times

[ionic kraken]

lmao

little.... they sell only 1000 royal crystals not lower or in between next step is double...

[thin token]

yes lol any char i make moving forward i am just buying south vern pass

[thin basalt]

Hi, if I get the bug where only I enter a legion raid, should I quit raid or song out to preserve my/my raid members' entry?

[dull trench]

yes, just get the 1100 vern pass, save the other 1100 crystal for a future powerpass

in the end you can end up with 4 vern powerpasses and eventually a punika pass

[ionic kraken]

man they are money hungry

[dull trench]

if you ask me you get more boost here than any other game

[brave rapids]

Nah FFXIV have job boosts on lock.

They know what's up

@ionic kraken you were asking which packs in the F4 shop are worth it, imo it's only this one:

This is a 1 time buy, it gives you 2600 BC for $10. Afterwards, all BC-buy packs are like $50 in the shop.

[dull trench]

I was hesitating buying that too

[brave rapids]

It's NEVER worth buying BC with irl money, but in this one case, I would say it's worth.

You can also do the 6-months crystalline aura trick with it on different servers lol

[dull trench]

Is the aura worth it as a new player?

It would be mostly better later on when you know what you are doing I guess

[brave rapids]

Yeah I wouldn't spend the BC until much later

just know that this pack is worth buying

[dull trench]

i will do eventually I gues

[ionic kraken]

@brave rapids can you kindly check the DM ?

[azure lintel]

After DC why does it not let me play my server?

[tribal dust]

Anyone know what to do at this Jahara quest?

gotta do an emote

[pseudo atlas]

,/surprised

[tribal dust]

thanks ^^

[pseudo atlas]

from checking https://lostarkcodex.com/us/quest/1201343/

[tribal dust]

ahh right, ty

[azure lintel]

Why is South America the only region available?

[dull trench]

?

[dapper geyser]

do brel relic gear change set bonuses in any way or just bonus/main stats?

[crisp turtle]

just extra main stat
set bonus and defensive stats stay the same

[opaque aspen]

Is there new power pass?

[crisp turtle]

depends what you mean by new
we got a "new" one two weeks ago, it expires in january

[opaque aspen]

I didn't played since about 10th November

[opaque aspen]

Is that for 1370?

[crisp turtle]

its a punika powerpass, so 1302

[opaque aspen]

Ohh ok

[dull trench]

is there like specific unas task I should do on daily or is it random?

[dull trench]

is the punika pass still obtainable?

[crisp turtle]

until january

[dull trench]

alright ez

[brave rapids]

People usually either do Leapstone dailies, Silver dailies, or more recently Shard dailies

[crisp turtle]

or collectable dailies

[brave rapids]

Yeah that too, reputation-based horizontal/collectable content

[dull trench]

@crisp turtle I jumped on to my SS, much more fun than WD, I just have 0 harmony stones to hone lol

[brave rapids]

Sounds like you're still Tier 1. Wardancer doesn't personally feel good until Relic gear.

[dull trench]

Ye, I just finished rohendel with WD, but decided to change before I invested too much. But now I'm stuck at 302 with SS

Is it worth doing chaos dungeon/Guardian raid on repeat to farm leaptones?

[brave rapids]

After the daily 2? Not really

Have you done the Speedrun to T3 islands?

[dull trench]

yes i did up untill after rohendel, but I opened all the chests on WD dont ask me why, so the mats are charater bound

[brave rapids]

You can try the Tier 1 tower, but Idk if you can clear it all

[dull trench]

chaos dungeon?

[tranquil nebula]

bruh theres three tooki islands? how am i supposed to know which one appears

[brave rapids]

Tower, not chaos dungeon

[dull trench]

uh where is that?

[brave rapids]

There's 4, and usually 4 different people go check 1 each lol

[wise galleon]

so im a new player, been around for like 2 weeks. few days ago got my main to 1460 and today got my first alt to 1415. Question is, is it worth pushing that alt any higher or would it be smarter to make new alts to 1385-1415 instead?

[tranquil nebula]

so im just f'd if im solo

[brave rapids]

it looks like this

[tranquil nebula]

unless i hit 25 percent

[wise galleon]

ask in area chat for tooki location, ppl usually drop the map ping for it

[brave rapids]

Personally I would push the alt to 1430, and then make 4 more 1430s for a full gold-earning roster

1430s a nice sweet spot for earning gold, cuz you get the vykas normal raid as well.

[crisp turtle]

1370, and then 1430 are the ideal parking spots for alts

i'd get the rest of your gold earners to 1370
then its up to you whether you push them to 1415, or the 1415 to 1430

1430 is the ideal gold spot
although 1415 doesnt earn much more raw gold than 1370, the access to much better chaos dungeons and guardian raids are probably worth it

[wise galleon]

Suppose I'll make a full 6 char roster, get them all to t3 and then 1by1 to 1430. With the honing/cutting/gems I'm constantly completely broke on silver and I do lopang daily and guild content and whatnot..

[brave rapids]

Nobody said it was fast. It's a slow process, but you'll get there. And the more alts you have, the more mats you'll have flowing in, including silver.

[crisp turtle]

its gonna happen when you're rushed through honing that quickly
the downside of making honing easier i guess 😂
as your honing slows down due to being gated by shards and leaps, you'll stop being gated by silver
silver is only your bottleneck right now because the expresses and stuff rushed you through honing very quickly

[wise galleon]

Oh I'm not in a rush or anything, just saying 🙂

[dull trench]

all you will need later on is time lol

[wise galleon]

Yeah the honing was getting annoying just sitting there clicking all gear nonstop.. They should make it require less clicks or if say going 1 to 8 is 100% just allow us to do it in one click

[brave rapids]

Eventually when your honing slows down and all your characters are looking more complete, you'll have so much saved up silver you just stop doing lopangs all together

[wise galleon]

[crisp turtle]

and then you start rolling gems, and you're silver poor again

[wise galleon]

im so happy for them hyper express lvl 5 gems, they roll for free 😄
but i made my own lvl6 and 7 and geee the price on them

[dull trench]

damn you did a lot in 2 weeks

[wise galleon]

I work from home

[brave rapids]

It only takes a few days to get to T3 now if you know what you're doing, and then at T3 you can use the limited time event Hyper Express to boost your way to 1445+

[wise galleon]

and im really good at my job so im given 3 day deadline, i do things in a day and then have two days to slack about and play

[idle needle]

Gotta pad them hours

[wise galleon]

ya know, working for the government :DDD

well, council actually, but still

so i have another alt i vern power passd to t1, do i have to use knowledge transfers in stages? or can i hone to 460, then get t2, hone to 1100 and just do punika transfer in one go?

[idle needle]

Just making sure you know that after you click the hone button, you can go to special honing and back to skip the animation

[wise galleon]

didn't know that, thanks !

[idle needle]

You can burn through your mats twice as fast now!

[crisp turtle]

you can only KT if you've completed the previous region, either by Kt or manually
so you cannot KT punika if you haven't done feiton

[brave rapids]

Knowledge Transfers just skip the continent stories. So if you hone to 460, you either do the storyline or you pay 800 gold + 8 hours to skip it

[wise galleon]

i did the islands after getting my main to t3 so I have a bunch of t1-t2 mats to slam quickly.
@brave rapids @crisp turtle Gotcha, good to know

[median drift]

Hi I need some advice pls 🙏

[wraith bough]

anyone else having this issue? I restarted and everything, still giving me this message

[brave rapids]

Drop Lost Ark, seek therapy what's up

[median drift]

I dropped a lunar reaper ring which is selling for 300k gold. Is there any danger I will get banned if an RMTer buys it?

[brave rapids]

Shouldn't be, but no guarantees with AGS.

[crisp turtle]

what some people do:
hone to 600, buy t2 gear from AH, hone that to 1100, do feiton and then KT punika

doing this method means you only have to pay for one KT. but it does mean you have to buy gear and most likely materials to hone with

[dull trench]

@brave rapidsso i did tower..

[brave rapids]

And?

[median drift]

I'm actually really nervous about it. If I get banned and lose the ring and gold I don't think I'd be able to play again

[dull trench]

it only gave me cards

[brave rapids]

I'm pretty sure Tower on alts is supposed to give honing mats..

[wise galleon]

that sounds pretty nice and chill, Ill probably do that

[wise galleon]

it does on alts

[dull trench]

but that was tghe first time I was doing it

[brave rapids]

Oh. I think you have to complete it once on your main first

[crisp turtle]

there are reports of people getting banned, for what they claim were selling gems/accessories

but theres no proof to say they just weren't actually caught for RMT

the idea that you'd get banned for selling something legitimately is ridiculous

[median drift]

It is but doesn't stop me feeling nervous as AGS have made some questionable decisions of late

[crisp turtle]

yeah he kinda forgot to give you the important information

the first time you do tower, you get a load of useful stuff, engravings rapport etc etc
its when you repeat it on alts that you get honing mats

[brave rapids]

You'd think so but AGS also runs New World where they had a similar issue and a lot of innocent people got fucked for it lol

[coarse mist]

whats the shortcut for roster storage?

[rose jewel]

ive sold shit for 100k+, never got beaned, people in the forums are hiding the real truth imo

[crisp turtle]

big different between people who are innocent, and people who claim to be innocent

[dull trench]

cant i just buy higher ilvl gear? or how does that work

[crisp turtle]

then dismantle it

[rose jewel]

if you're scared of selling something, dont sell it, 5head

[median drift]

How does that help me? Lol

[crisp turtle]

because you'd stop worrying about being banned

[rose jewel]

how does overpanicking over lies helps

[coarse mist]

In my experience, ive sold over 5 mil gold over the auction house, biggest item being 650k

[median drift]

Ok I'm just gonna keep it. Even if I am missing out on a lot of gold. I don't wanna risk a ban

[rose jewel]

hahaha

[brave rapids]

you're definitely a gold seller dm me

[crisp turtle]

[rose jewel]

imagine believing in the forum lies to the point you're scared of doing legitimate things

[coarse mist]

do ur deskas and kungas

[rose jewel]

just trade me the ring if you dont wanna sell it

[brave rapids]

they're resting rn

[rose jewel]

i'll gladly sell it and take the profit myself

[coarse mist]

^anybody know?

[rose jewel]

there is none, go to your pet menu

[brave rapids]

ALT + P to open pet menu

[crisp turtle]

there isn't one afaik, theres a shortcut fior your pet

[coarse mist]

i dont wnna go in there tho

[brave rapids]

then there's no shortcut

[coarse mist]

like u know how you can alt y for ah? i wnt something like that

[brave rapids]

There isn't one.

[rose jewel]

ask daddy smileygate to do one

[brave rapids]

Just sell it, the chances of getting banned are so insanely low. There's literally RMTers on the market daily (selling t1 accessories for 1m gold, definitely not suspicious). In the insane case that you do get wrongly busted, just appeal a ticket. They won't even ban you, they'll just take the gold away.

[tropic cipher]

try alt + f4

[median drift]

Would I get the accessory back?

[rose jewel]

lmao, no

so you wanna sell something for 500k get banned, unbanned then get the thing back to try to sell it again or what's up

[median drift]

So I'd lose the gold and accessory?

[crisp turtle]

you're not going to get banned

[rose jewel]

YOU WONT LOSE SHIT, jesus chrust stop overpanicking

[brave rapids]

You'd lose the gold, and the buyer would lose the accessory, but again, the chances are so low. If you do get banned over this, you should buy a lottery ticket irl

[rose jewel]

are you gonna buy rmt-ed gold? why are you asking this several times

[rocky jewel]

guys has anybody ever faced the issue of closing lost ark and it stays running even after task manager close and shutdown pc?

[coarse mist]

Bro you wont get banned. Literally its impossible to get false banned as long as you arent an rmter

[coarse mist]

Close steam

[rocky jewel]

I try and press stop but its in a permanent loop of stopping

[rose jewel]

if you buy gold from rmt-ers of course you'll get banned, if you dont you dont, simple as that, any more questions?

[median drift]

Because I just dropped the best accessory I've ever seen and don't want to lose everything

[brave rapids]

Ohhhhhhhhh true, is this a cover up for actually RMTing? bro just let me know, i know a guy don't

[rose jewel]

holy fuck just play the game normally, sell the shit and enjoy life

[rocky jewel]

just make an alt account to rmt and funnel to main

[median drift]

I'm literally the unluckiest person in the world so when I got this acc I was in shock

[coarse mist]

Fr I dont even look back anymore and i just spend gold. I literally spend like 150k gold a day

[rocky jewel]

[wise galleon]

if you see someone on forum complaining they got unjustly banned for rmt, they got justly banned for rmt 🙂

[rose jewel]

yeah yeah, just sell it and move on, no need to flex now, shoo shoo

[coarse mist]

Only reason you would actually get banned is if your consistently selling drops for 500k every week then its kinda susge

[rocky jewel]

if they get banned it just means they suck at rmting and have no braincells to avoid getting banned

[median drift]

Defo not consistent

[rose jewel]

and if you ever get banned, you're the luckies mf in existence, you stopped playing lost ark, biggest win

[rocky jewel]

it didnt work

[coarse mist]

FR

[mortal belfry]

[median drift]

I'm a small fish, only buy Ark pass

[coarse mist]

You went into task manager and straiaght up closed the steaam instance? cuz that force closes all games im pretty sure

[brave rapids]

also when ur done selling that accessories, send us some for wasting our fucking time

[coarse mist]

Thats what i usually do when i have an issue loading up the game and it looping

[rose jewel]

you need to close anything lost ark related, including EAC instances

[rocky jewel]

i cant close lost ark client

[rose jewel]

several people has had that issue for days now, unkonwn reason, unknown fix

people just restart their pc to not deal with that thing

[brave rapids]

get off lost ark, play a real game, like genshin impact, candy crush, and monopoly online

[vernal copper]

You have to restart your computer

[rocky jewel]

genshin isnt a real game

[coarse mist]

^

[rose jewel]

real game
genshit

pick one

i'd rather play hello kitty online

[brave rapids]

play a real game, like eurotruck simulator, ms paint, or calculator

[coarse mist]

As an igniter, is it possible for me to perfectly time my ignite with my bard aside from a macro that pops up like 0.2 seconds before my doomsday lands?

[brave rapids]

you guys don't know real gaming

[rose jewel]

i recommend Cave Story, no memes, that game is awesome

[rose jewel]

if your bard doesnt hear you DEMASSI'ing, she sucks vc

bursts are either coordinated or your bard can or can not have buffs up for the ignite

[brave rapids]

just make an autohotkey script that times that shit for you with macro chat and get immediately banned afterwards by the EAC

[sudden pivot]

will there be a powerpass on summoner drop?

[rose jewel]

just play 2 accounts at the same time on 2 pcs so you can buff yourself on demand

[crisp turtle]

pfft, if they want my serenade, they better learn to time their ignite with my timings
im the support mfker, im the real mvp

[rose jewel]

what about if your Z key is broken

[ebon vapor]

i reinstalled steam, and it worked, but again, i cant close LA on Steam, even through Task manager 😄

[rose jewel]

my bet is eac shennanigans

restart your pc, it has no fix at the moment

[ebon vapor]

like a SAO haha

[dull trench]

i seriously dont know what to do, I need t1 leapstones lol

[tropic cipher]

una

and cd

[dull trench]

cd?

[tropic cipher]

chaos dungeon

[dull trench]

ah chaos, already completed it twice today

[rose jewel]

tower if its an alt, island route, buy them or wait for tomorrow

[dull trench]

I alreayd did all that lol

[rose jewel]

you didnt do one thing, wait for tomorrow

[dull trench]

buying them as in market?

[rose jewel]

well, yes

then you didnt do all of them

have you bought the things in the aldebaran shop

[dull trench]

no, but buying them its like 100g for 1 right?

[rose jewel]

lmao no

[dull trench]

i mean 10*

[rose jewel]

how about you actually look at your market

price varies by region

[dull trench]

11 right now

[rose jewel]

not bad

[tropic cipher]

as long as it's not shard

[rose jewel]

do you wanna rush? spend resources for it
can you chill and no rush? you have time, time is another kind of resource

[runic tundra]

do we still receive punika pass after clearing it ?

[dull trench]

well i want to get the SS to 460 like my other class so I can keep following the t3 speedrun guide

[rose jewel]

didnt you just said you did ALL the route and "wasted" everything on your wardancer

route is once per roster only

[dull trench]

i did up to begining of t2

[tropic cipher]

that's like 2 days of doing 3 unas and chaos

[rose jewel]

then use gold and rush, you want everything for free, no señor

[crisp turtle]

did someone say free stuff

[rose jewel]

if you dont have the mats, you either buy them or wait for tomorrow

[dull trench]

isnt gold hard to comeby?

[rose jewel]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/434657374117298188/1042210051244433441/image.png

[crisp turtle]

early on, yes

[rose jewel]

gold is hard to come by, if you're new

unless you whale early on, but that's 3 days of held gold

[runic tundra]

@rose jewel i didnt get punika power pass when i cleared my main punika

[tropic cipher]

i believe it's the purple quest

[rose jewel]

once per region, having several rosters in one region doesnt net you more punika passes, also read the requirement

[crisp turtle]

im'a take a wild guess and assume its because you didnt do the quest that it tells you that you need to do

[rose jewel]

people just read up to "clear punika" and miss the rest

[crisp turtle]

bold of you to assume people read past "free powerpass"

[rose jewel]

mb for that

[tropic cipher]

people read?

[runic tundra]

i cleared this already but i didnt get powerpass

[crisp turtle]

you either have it, or you've used it

[runic tundra]

the only time i used punika pass is the one that we receive from the event

[crisp turtle]

thats the one you get...

[runic tundra]

i only have 2 character with tier 3

[rose jewel]

saw it coming and dont tell me you didnt saw it coming

[crisp turtle]

you get one punika powerpass
you've used it

[rose jewel]

just tell me yes or no
have you used a punika powerpass in the past 2 weeks and a half
a FREE punika pass

[runic tundra]

yeah but that one is from the event

[rose jewel]

case closed

[runic tundra]

never get one before the event started i think there should be 2 ?

[rose jewel]

[rose jewel]

emphasis on "THIS IS AN EVENT POWERPASS AND WILL EXPIRE... blabla"

[crisp turtle]

no
the free punika powerpass you got, is the only one you get
its not connected to the hyper express event
they are two seperate things

one powerpass
one hyper express

[runic tundra]

@crisp turtle ok this one is clear

[vital schooner]

My game is fine but whenever I visit someone's Stronghold it lags so much and most of the time it freezes even on steam launcher it requires to restart my PC to fix it... any idea how to fix this?

[rose jewel]

not for the moment

known issue, not known fix

[vital schooner]

sad

[crisp turtle]

force closing eac, repairing eac, force closing steam, restarting pc/logging out-in on pc are what normally fixes iteventually
but no conclusive fix, as sometimes those things work, sometimes they dont

[vital schooner]

ahh so annoying now I missed the Island event.. lol

[edgy imp]

what about stronghold mats?

[minor crown]

anyone know what's the best place for mining?

[crisp turtle]

quantities? no idea
but it will be same materials

[vital schooner]

there is an Island north of vern.. no enemies, the ore are next to each other you can farm there comfortable

[rose jewel]

meteora

[frigid oracle]

T3? I've been mining on niheltalop's thoughts.

[minor crown]

ty mates

[crisp turtle]

if you're not lvl 20 or 30
lakebar probably your best bet

[coral umbra]

didn't know it is related to stronghold, I don't think it is exclusive to stranghold, I think it is related to lag and disconnects, and the new feature of not closing game after disconnect, so EAC goes offline and lostark.exe is not closed and can't be closed anymore.

[rose jewel]

i bet its all thanks to this stupid wannabe security indie app eac

"worse is nothing" is not even in the table here, that shit needs to get replaced asap

[coral umbra]

yes it is related to EAC, but it wasn't problem before, cause game would close on disconnect, now it often doesn't close at all, need to restart windows

[vital schooner]

Maybe for you... but my game is doing fine. this only happens whenever I visit anyone's stronghold

[final sleet]

Hello, returning player here(played a little after launch then stopped)
what do I do with these card packs? Just open or is there a efficient way to do it, eg get all easy cards then open them?

[coral umbra]

not just me, this discord is full with people complaining about not being able to start lostark, cause it is still running, and needing to restart windows, I saw streamer ending stream to restart lostark

[timber mauve]

There’s no dupe protection. So open whatever. Just don’t use the selection packs.

[rose jewel]

any card pack that has something like "Chance to obtain" open freely, any legendary card pack that says something like "Pick/Select and obtain" save them

[final sleet]

oki, thanks!

[vital schooner]

https://tenor.com/view/facepalm-annoyed-stöhn-oh-no-oh-nein-gif-24943313

Okay! Maybe for you and other players... but my game is doing fine. this only happens whenever I visit anyone's stronghold

[crisp turtle]

stop going to other peoples strongholds then

if you're convinced thats the only issue, very easy fix

[coral umbra]

don't visit stronghold, and then see if it happens anyways

[rose jewel]

dont play the game ez fix

[vital schooner]

yeah I would love to... but I have so many seal that I couldn't use so I have to buy those useful stuffs. and if you don't know yet unidentified relic has different exchange rate on other players and you. some of them are very higher exchange rate so it's totally worth it to explore

[rose jewel]

best is 12:1, nothing out of the ordinary

not like exchanging 100 treasures gonna make you buy all the shops

[crisp turtle]

i just wait til i get a 12:1 in my own stronghold
seals aint going anywhere
and theres basically fuckall you can do with them anyway

[vital schooner]

well.. you can be lazy how to use it.. but not me..

[rose jewel]

is visiting strongholds left and right gonna make you extremely stronger?

[vital schooner]

what do you think?

[rose jewel]

at best you can buy a rune you lack, and that's it, and its prob a blue rune

i think no

but well, people use their time however they want

[pseudo atlas]

does it really matter if you get that useful stuff this week when everything seems to be breaking instead of next week

[vital schooner]

exactly!!! we have different pref of how we play the game...lol

[pseudo atlas]

assuming they even fix whatever the issue is next week

[crisp turtle]

still not exactly sure what useful stuff you're buying from strongholds every week

[vital schooner]

Legendary ship materials, legendary and relic crew, runes... ect.. Did you actually play this game?

[crisp turtle]

not even gonna bother

[rose jewel]

leggo ship mats? for stronghold medals? nah

waste of resources, i find buying a card pack more worth

[vital schooner]

I maxed my set..so...

[rose jewel]

when you need 100+ to get a ship to lv10 and you buy 8 per visit, far from being worth

LoS 30? LWC 30?

[crisp turtle]

"maxed" his card sets
but still buys crew and runes weekly from strongholds...
yup. makes sense to me

[pseudo atlas]

who cares, the issue is the game is breaking and if you find something that breaks it you should submit a bug report instead of complaining in help because nobody knows why the game won't shut down

[rose jewel]

he's playing a different game we mortals cant comprehend, anyway i'll keep playing disgaea

[deep sorrel]

anyone else unable to log in? it only lets me view the south america servers, the other four regions say "the region is closed"

although if you're already in the game i wouldn't log out to check in case this is not just happening to me

[vital schooner]

lol all I did was ask a simple question not complaining... and all these insecure people starts bombarding comments that's totally irrelevant.. tf

[rose jewel]

are you able to restart your router

[deep sorrel]

Yeah, I'll go and try that

[rose jewel]

do so several times, as many as needed

[dapper geyser]

Is there a title associated with brel?

[silver rain]

there is

[topaz zephyr]

question about rapport.. lets say im 1/7000 and i use (4) 2000 rapport that = 8000 will it waste 1000 or use it in the next tier?

[rose jewel]

you cant in the first place, you cant gift over 300 points at a time

[topaz zephyr]

my rapports are legendary they say 2000

[rose jewel]

i know, read carefully what i typed

you're going over 300 points, you wont be able to gift, you need to be at 1000 points and gift 3 leggo gifts, 7k exactly, or you need to be, at most, 1300

[topaz zephyr]

will it waste rapport

[rose jewel]

you CANT go past 300 dude, cant

[deep sorrel]

well that's only for if they're hitting max

[inner wing]

It means it won't work

[silver rain]

if you're friendly1 1/7000 you gift 8000 you'll be at friendly2 1001/7000

[coral umbra]

yes rapport points go to next tier

[topaz zephyr]

@coral umbra Thank you lol..

thats all i want to know

[rose jewel]

oh friendly, jesus

[inner wing]

[coral umbra]

that's how you can skip virtue point check, you can give enough to get friendly or max in one go

[rose jewel]

ok yeah i derped

i thought he wanted to one shot with 7k

[topaz zephyr]

you make things 20 times more difficult with your answers

[rose jewel]

there are some npcs requiring low amount of rapport in total so

while i was wrong, my example is not that bad

[coral umbra]

just check how much rapport you need to finish in 1 go

[topaz zephyr]

every time i try to do it it makes me do quests

[rose jewel]

thats intended if you gift lil by lil

if you one shot them in 1 go you are not required to do them and you get all prizes

but since rapport quests and dialogues gives rapport points, people usually do them to save on gifts

[topaz zephyr]

ok ill do that next time

[rose jewel]

just be aware

some npcs require a very high amount of virtues (wisdom etc)

if you're not at the req. amount you cant interact with them (cant do quests)

[silver rain]

just get virtues to 420 each and you dont have to worry

[topaz zephyr]

serious?

[rose jewel]

some npcs require 70 or 80 or 120 virtue, some require 300

[robust shard]

if I join a guild do I need to be in the same server (Rohendel) or as lon as I am in NAW is that good?

[rose jewel]

same server

[pseudo atlas]

330 is the highest virtue requirement for rapport quests but technically if you're 420 then you're fine

[rare iris]

how do you get the mokoko skin and pet i see some people wear?

[silver rain]

yea as long as you can do rapport quests. 420 is for a dialogue which isnt necessary but still free 4k rapport point for Nia

[silver rain]

events. they give out those skins (including Animal skins) periodically

we might get new one more this upcoming patch

[rare iris]

nice

[silver rain]

as for mokoko pet it was some celebration gift might be a while before they give another out

[rare iris]

wasnt it because of the launch to the west?

[silver rain]

for Anniversary Event maybe

[rare iris]

I see. When is the next patch?

[shy chasm]

dec

[rare iris]

so now?

[timber mauve]

Sometime within the next few weeks.

[rare iris]

awesome, guessing we are going to get some winter holiday skins too? 🙂

[deep sorrel]

most likely dec 14 because the current stuff ends then, but they've delayed patches before so no guarantees

[silver rain]

we wont know for sure until they release patch teaser

all we know are Brel and Summoner

[rare iris]

Brel? new location?

[rigid plank]

Brel short for Brelshaza, the next legion raid

[rare iris]

😮 Sounds cool

excited for the next patch then 🙂

[maiden locust]

Steam says game still running after closing and i cant use end task for it ... when i click stop it turns into stopping and nothing happens

[timber mauve]

Hopefully you’re not planning on pugging Brel.

[rose jewel]

is he close to 1490 is the question

[rare iris]

Ofcourse not! Now the real question is.. What is pugging? xD

[rare iris]

Yeah almost there, around lvl 16 I am atm

[timber mauve]

Grouping with randoms generally in party finder.

[ancient lark]

restart your PC

[shy chasm]

they mean ilvl not char level

[rare iris]

How else am I gonna learn end game content on my own? guild?

[rare iris]

I know, was sarcastic :p

[ancient lark]

YouTube

[timber mauve]

Yes, going in with a static group and/or a guild.

[shy chasm]

i didnt know

[rare iris]

Gonna level up some characters first, when I hit around what level I should focus more on guild grouping and such?

[rare iris]

Is oke fam

[timber mauve]

I would find a guild asap tbh. It will make progressing through content a lot easier and more fun. Also, guilds give bonus rewards and such.

[rare iris]

Hmm

[timber mauve]

Wait, you’re EUW?

[rare iris]

I switched to EUC because it was more populated apparently

[timber mauve]

Oh good. I’d pick up the EUC role from #navigation

[rare iris]

Done

The thing is, I don't want to join a guild atm because I am casually playing through the story and levelling up my character. Unless there are guilds who accept a passive guild member for now?

I don't mind donating and such

[blazing badger]

there are alt guilds that basically have no events but just house alts

[timber mauve]

Join one of those and you’ll get guild currency to exchange for good shit.

[rare iris]

I joined a lvl 5 guild that said alts are welcome. Donated 6k silver for bloodstone? That is all I have to do?

[blazing badger]

yup

and aid research if it's up

[rare iris]

Ah oke, it says no research project in progress. Will keep an eye out for that

Thanks

[blazing badger]

enjoy!

[weak gate]

anyone else on sasha?

i dont understand why everyone says its easy to get a 4x3. All of these relic accessories with any sort of decent quality go for so much gold. This could literally just be a sasha thing

[timber mauve]

The market is region wide.

[weak gate]

ah ok nvm then

[boreal cosmos]

On valtan G1, at <10 bars he does the fear mechanic with the stagger.
If you solo bus this/duo and someone fails the stagger, how can you prevent a wipe after 2 fails?

[blazing plover]

does this mean a current +23 weapon when transferred to brel 15, they lose the red glow?

[echo owl]

yes

[fiery zinc]

Does grudge even work on guardians? It says "Boss or above monsters"

[coral umbra]

works on Guardian Raids, Abyss Dungeon bosses, Abyss/Legion Raid bosses, boss rush, field bosses.

[slim beacon]

did this expire or not yet im confused

[weak gate]

why do people sometimes ask for orbs x2 instead of using wei for one of them?

[timber mauve]

So they can use thirain and zoom even faster.

[timber mauve]

I’m gonna guess it goes mm/dd/yyyy so no.

[slim beacon]

also normally it gives info about the book what does it upgrade and stuff like in normal ones but this one is different idk

[timber mauve]

Try to hone some t3 armor below +15 and use it.

Legendary armor that is

[slim beacon]

can we still buy the platinium pack ?

[violet jungle]

just ballpark, how many life shards can i get from feiton chaos dungeons?

i need a minor 40k to hit 1100

[rose jewel]

did you already do island route, tower, event

[violet jungle]

nao

[rose jewel]

merchant ship, chaos gate if any

[violet jungle]

i did up to 49 on tower and did the event

[rose jewel]

merch ship

[violet jungle]

Nop

Idk how for most of those

Some*

[rose jewel]

its just 1 single weekly purchase, cant get lost

[violet jungle]

where is it

[rose jewel]

port, any city

and before you get lost for 1hr looking for nothing, outside, be on your ship

[violet jungle]

okk

[fiery zinc]

wait, so if u do rehearsal clown, you cant do normal clown no more wtf? on the same character

[rose jewel]

mhm

why would you do rehearsal if you can do normal

[violet jungle]

also there a list of the best una's tasks anywhere?

[rose jewel]

i wanna think maxroll has a guide about it

[slim beacon]

whats the efficient structure i can use in stronghold ? (bonus)

[strong tiger]

why cant i close the game

[icy notch]

any tech savy people can help me with something/answer my question about the game

[tranquil magnet]

Can anyone link me the dye colors for the wingsuit to make it look like a Titan from AoT, ive seen it multiple times before but no-one has divulged the color codes

[rose jewel]

#presets

if you both misa and kenpa are wondering about the game not closing and your pc freezing, known issue, no fix yet

[icy notch]

No i want to know why when i play on a 2nd account (steam) my cpu gets destroyed but when i log on to my main account my cpu is fine

same settings and same launch options

[violet jungle]

what happens if i do more than 3 una tasks?

[tranquil magnet]

?

[rose jewel]

?

[violet jungle]

?

[timber mauve]

I recently ran into an issue similar to this. Both of my accounts made my cpu run ultra hot for some odd reason. For some reason, my cpu was pulling way too high of voltage, so I just lowered the vcore. I’d suggest you take a look at hwmomitor and alter it if needed.

[rose jewel]

daily una's? you cant unless you use a +1 ticket

as for the core of the question, you just get extra loot, nothing fancy

[violet jungle]

hm, so what do i get from the 3 that i wouldnt get from doing extra

also are +1s permanent cause i have 2 rn

[rose jewel]

you wish, daily reset as well

reputation cant be obtained more than once per una per day, rosterwide, you just get the loot the una gives and thats it

[burnt cave]

is it worth losing the crit on preordained gear or is getting the dmg increase from demon beast gear more worth it? just curious

[icy notch]

i dmed you

[blazing badger]

most people just run argos until relic, the difference isn't big

[fast shoal]

what would that difference be, for example i'm building crit on my gs so i dont need that much more crit but on my machinst i sorta need all the crit i can get to keen blunt work?

[rose jewel]

just stay with argos 2pc until relic

unless you wanna park your chars at 1415 for a very very long time, then do a 2-2-2

[fast shoal]

should i sit on 4pc demon beast 2pc argos or should i just stick with 5pc argos for the 5 set bonus?

[rose jewel]

you realise the 5set needs a counterpart to even activate right

[fast shoal]

yea

[rose jewel]

you are not going to get a 5pc harsh oat user that easily, if at all, 99% of the users rush to relic

[fast shoal]

but what about the lesser buff from 5pc

not the full one

[rose jewel]

2pc is what we told you to use until relic

[timber mauve]

Just use 2pc Argos. Trust

[fast shoal]

"told me" 👀

[maiden locust]

Anyone know when the current Punika pass ends if it didn't end yet? The one that free skips to 1302

[fast shoal]

sir yes sir

[rose jewel]

i do c:

[maiden locust]

Nice, did it end yet? Dragging my friend back into it and don't know if its still available or not

[maiden locust]

Dope ty

[burnt cave]

how long does both magick addition and boundless mp last for? or do they just flip flop between each other

[maiden locust]

They don't have a time. They last as long as ur in whatever instance ur in. Magick addiction lasts until ur MP gets too low then it's replaced by boundless, then boundless lasts until your MP hits 100% again

[wintry cypress]

Me too. Still couldn't log in. How about you now?

[timber mauve]

Known issue; no known fix
(I think)

[solar elm]

how do i dismantle lvl 4 and below for skill tree amulets

I only want to see if amulet has level 5 skill

[rose jewel]

he means the "Region locked", which you usually fix by restarting router or flushing dns

usually, not always

[wintry cypress]

Yes I tried restarting PC and router already

There's no way this is permanent right? Haha

[rose jewel]

ofc its not, i had the same shit and what i said fixed it

verifying game files, clean installation, flush dns, restarting router (turning it off for several minutes, not just a quick off on)

usual things that fixes it, official support aint gonna do shit about it, they are useless

[wintry cypress]

What is flush dns?

[rose jewel]

that's lireally your last resource, a ticket to official support

flushing your dns via commands on CMD, you can google it

[wintry cypress]

Thank you sir, will try all those when I get a chance

[crystal pecan]

Hey guys it is better to hone to 1520 right away or stay like say 1510, do gate 1-4, and hone more with the new gear to 1520? Also when should you use your fused leap? +21 to +22, or on the new brel gear?

[wraith bough]

was about to ask but seems like other ppl having the issue too, ill try to flush my dns, was literally working just fine this morning too

[bright patrol]

is anyone elses lost ark still saying running after a pc restart?

[vernal copper]

it happens

[bright patrol]

is this a recent issue? and is there a fix

[vernal copper]

you should try shut down and powering on if you run into that problem

no fix, recent issues (started friday)

[bright patrol]

Yeah, i just shut down my laptop for a few mins and was surprised it was still running

[ashen kindle]

How many relic rapport do I need if I want to skip nia from friendly 1 to trusted?

[bright patrol]

but im glad its not an issue with my laptop

[vernal copper]

yeah I was about to reinstall windows til I looked it up on the forums

it's an EAC issue, also check your temps

[bright patrol]

like in the lost ark proeprties on steam? also what should i look for

[vernal copper]

i meant cpu temps cause some people have it where one of their cores is at 100% even when lost ark is "closed"

[bright patrol]

sorry where do you find cpu temps?

[vernal copper]

task manager should show it

[bright patrol]

ah like in processes?

[vernal copper]

oh I guess it doesn't, I guess you should check resource manager to see if one of your cores is at 100% if you have nothing else open

[bright patrol]

i c ok ty for the help!

ill look around, but hopefully a fix is released by ags/sg

[simple flicker]

no more skill transfer from saved gears also?

[minor crown]

ye

everything is now learn with double chance from before

[river talon]

Closes game> steam shows game is still running

[slim beacon]

guys whats better for chaos dung, contender or adren or any other engr ? beside preempt

[bright patrol]

apparently its a bug thaat started yesterday

[shy yarrow]

auction most likely

[golden solstice]

dont see it there

lol it was in my mail

[shy yarrow]

idk how some of you dont clear your mail

[timber mauve]

I personally bought legendary contender and preemptive. I just slap those on whenever I run chaos.

[pure nacelle]

how much health does deskaluda have?

[brave rapids]

Anything with Attack Power: Mass Increase, Raid Captain, Contender, Cursed Doll. There's also some conditional engravings like Master's Tenacity, Stabilized Status, Barricade. Adrenaline works, but it's mostly used as extra crit. If you have relic gear, just using 2 purple Preemptive Strike books + the relic Betrayal set is more than enough. You get Lightning Field or Electrocute from Betrayal and Preemptive Strike 1 shots everything that comes near you.

Someone also told me Preemptive Strike works with KBW, but I didn't bother testing it

[misty skiff]

does anyone know what is chance of proccing the fate of lazenith set 10 pc effect?

[violet jungle]

pls tell me i'm doing smth wrong

[rose jewel]

probably

[pulsar oar]

what pet should I choose? i just logged back in for firs time in several months and i don't know what these are

oop sorry ill send a better picture one sec

[restive root]

Does anyone know if the South Vern Knowledge transfer gives Chosen/Argos gear?

[deep sorrel]

are you solo matchmaking or matchmaking with 2 people?

[rose jewel]

are you looking for a party while in a party?

[violet jungle]

no i'm solo

[deep sorrel]

lol those are mounts, just pick whatever you want it's all cosmetic

[violet jungle]

^^ white one imo though

[pulsar oar]

okay what about these

[deep sorrel]

same deal

[pulsar oar]

which hardship should i pick for the stronghold dispatch hardship advantages

[violet jungle]

do note that they have flames on the back end so its a bit tacky

[deep sorrel]

it's literally not worth worrying about the dispatch advantage

[pulsar oar]

oh ok

[rose jewel]

btw t1 and t2 and early t3 is not dead, its extremely non existent

just ask for help on party finder creating your party or shot out on area chat at either vern, punika or feiton

[fiery zinc]

is 1000 hours in and no legendary Rage Rune from Chaos Gate a normal thing? I been doing 95% of the Chaos Gates since I been 1415

[rose jewel]

yes

[deep sorrel]

well how long have you been 1415

[fiery zinc]

Since 200-300 hours in

or like since August

[violet jungle]

mm fun, thanks i'll try that and ask my guild to q

[deep sorrel]

fwiw hours played doesn't mean anything for chaos gates since you can only do like 4 a week

[rose jewel]

you can play 10,000 hrs and do 1 chaos gate ever and get the rune, or play every single gate daily and not get it, rng giveth rng taketh

[fiery zinc]

like i farmed all 7 omnium stars before i got the rage rune

[pulsar oar]

if i have honing chests and im only combat level like 46 i shouldn't even worry about them right cuz honing is like t3 stuff

^on my only roster account, which is also level like 20 something i think i can't remember

[deep sorrel]

sorry for late response, I found this thread https://forums.playlostark.com/t/region-is-closed-and-cant-be-selected-being-defaulted-to-sa/491694 and everyone having problems seems to have suddenlink/optimum as their ISP including me, so I wanted to ask if it was the same for you too

[pulsar oar]

if i have an engraving to the blue already, and i have a chest that gives me greens, would using more greens do anything or would it just be a waste since i'm past them

[deep sorrel]

it won't do anything

or rather you can't even use them

[pure nacelle]

what classes use super charge besides db

[deep sorrel]

destroyer

oh lone knight gunlancer does too

[ancient lark]

striker alt build too

[violet jungle]

How does master brawler work? Idk how I would hit head attacks exactly

[simple flicker]

yo bros is it pkossible to get 5x3 engrav with 6/6 stone

[deep sorrel]

have you done guardians? bosses like those will have head and back indicators so you know where to hit

[violet jungle]

Ohhhh

Oh bruh I play reaper

[fiery zinc]

I've never seen those back and head indicator lines, unless u mean the text

I seen vids where ppl have red and blue lines to show head and back

[violet jungle]

The little circles in guardian raids

[deep sorrel]

you can turn them on in your settings

[last wolf]

i saw a post saying we have a higher honing chance if we hone in artherine. is that copium or legit

[violet jungle]

Sounds cope

[shy chasm]

high copium

[deep sorrel]

just a joke

[fiery zinc]

you also have higher honing chance if u swipe

[slender stump]

Also if u click "hone" button

[glossy meteor]

Hi even aftee turning off the game my pc continues to heat up even more . Using a i7 12th amd rtx3070ti

known issue, non known fix

[rustic oyster]

Please refrain from discussion about bussing please

[rose jewel]

ayaya

[wintry cypress]

My ISP is from an entirely different country. However, under the same ISP my PC that is connected by LAN has the issue while my laptop that uses WIFI is fine

[ashen kindle]

guys are 9/6 stone better than 7/7?

[wintry cypress]

9/5 = 7/7, so yours is prolly better

[ashen kindle]

i just cut it now lol i thought im gonna hit 9/7 i success 3x in 25%

[fleet phoenix]

Anyone had the balls not appear in Mario 4 until you're basically in melee range with them? Or does anyone know what might cause that and how it can be fixed?

[wicked juniper]

Same here. Tried ending task from task manager, cpu usage went down to 0 but it still continued to occupy about 3 gigs of memory.
Couldnt end task after that.
Had to restart system.

Is there an unspoken rule of 3 wipes equals a refund for buses in NA EU just like Korea

[solar elm]

yea

[maiden locust]

Guys, anyone having the bug or something that the game is "Running" even tho you literally just turn on your PC?

So um anyone know how to fix it??

[rose jewel]

no one

[maiden locust]

So how do you even log in now?

Or Ags is forcing us to quit the game? LOL

[rose jewel]

you can quit the game whenever you want, dont wait for a bug

just restart your pc

[heady prism]

is it worth buying 2 pieces or armor and losing my current buff or is it better to wait till next week and get weapon

[frigid flare]

did this changed? i did it solo and it didnt complete? is doing it as 4man mandatory now? (regards any [raid])
