Honestly I just... really don't want to waste the pheons on a garbage adrenaline 5 ring
Why garbage
because the adrenaline 5 ring is my class skill ring
So it's either buy a trash adrenaline 5 ring or save up and drop like 150k on an adrenaline 5 DI 3 ring
the hell couldnt u just have gotten a 3 3 ring with di?
its enough nodes to get 5x3 with one 3 3 piece
No? I don't have a 7/7 stone
yeah its enough

Doing builds with 1 x12 book - ok
Doing builfs with 2 x9 is grief
my summoner is 7 6 and i have +1 on keen blunt cause its 3 4 piece
Considering you have the 2 most expensive engravings to buy
is it worth fixing the durability of your trade skill gear or just craft/open a new one
if its purple just toss it
No, it's exactly 1 node over
anything above and if it has good rolls then keep
Ye just destroy it then
lol its enough
Nah, the 5x3 works out fine. grudge and DI 12 plus an adrenaline 5, DI 3 ring is exactly 5x3
Yeah but it's unrealistic with your current gold income considering you dont swipe
that shouldve been the first piece u gotten
its always nec and class first
thats why u fked urself
Nahhhhh, it's fine. I need grudge 12 anyways for like 4 of my classes, plus SH is relatively low priority
well in the future get the class first
you get 2 books so you can use a 3/3 class acc
now you need both
That is what I did with my GS, though I got her class accessory from cd so it's not exactly the same
its not no
If SH were on my short priority list like bard and GL then I'd be more worried, but all in all I don't really feel bad about it
I will, however, do better planning when working on my bard
u could cheap out on necs in the future by having one stat weighted heavier than the other
like 500 on spec and 410 on crit
Look up all the options to find the cheapest 3x5 class accessory etc etc
your wasting 100k+ by not planning
dont get any 3/5 class acc
just get 7.7
ok i have 0 7.7s
Having to work around an 8/6 is annoying af
lol how is it annoying its great
8/6 on my GS, 7/6 SH, 7/5 scouter and 7/7 GL
Well, I mean, I say that but I spent like 5k on all my GS' accessories so it's not like it matters
Both of these came out of CD's, so it saved me... a bit on my build
prob wouldve sold the purple ring and bought a shetty green one or blue
I honestly probably should. It's like an 80k ring or something
how much is the class ring
The last one I saw sold for around 60k
ohh i thought it would be more then that
It's 35 quality my dude
pretty sure if its was pm 5 and kbw 3 its way more expensive
especially if it was spec or swift
swift?
Doubles in price essentially
tth bois
Also 4x3+2+1 adrenaline boys
It's best to gear up with full level 7's then slowly upgrade to 8's without losing any gems right?
So like, full 11x7 then when I get 2 more 7's I make 1 8?
that or give ur alts lvl 7 unless u want ur main to be a big fatso
stop at lvl 7 and then either work on alts lvl 7 or just work on lvl 9 gems. Lvl 8 not really worth
Oh, yeah, I'm referring to when my alts are kitted up with 7's as well, then just funneling into my main after that
So, uh, SRF, SS, TD and FS?
dont play a gs sorry
if they are the biggest damage ones yeah
They are, yeah
GS has a lot of filler/mobility abilities, but most of the damage comes from those 4
Is there a fastest way to level up each trade skill to the max?
I know the GS community guide, it doesn't say which gems to aim for level 9 on
the snipe and 4 shot one is your highest dmg ones so those first ig
All of them. Legit you want level 9 gems on all skills it says you need gems on.
Highest damage first tho.
how useless is this thing? or is it actually useful
they buffed it and it's still useless 
While technically accurate, this answer isn't really in the spirit of the question I was asking. It's such a long process that asking "which level 9 gems should I go for?" just means the first ones I should aim for
Highest damage first, but pretty much a no brainer
igniter sorc
How about the highest damage ceiling?
I thought that's ceiling.
can anyone tell me what to do with crystallized destruction stones? i need more regular destruction stones so i can get 600 to progress
elaborate. are you asking what to do with them once you have a brel weapon?
no, so i started playing yesterday. im item level 566 and need to get to 600 to progress, and im out of destruction stone fragments to upgrade to 600
but i have like 9k crystallized
did you pick tier 3 stones from the event by accident (you did)
oh ok, was confused. crystalised destruction is for 1100+ gear
do you have gold/chaos dungeons daily left?
hello can anyone help me im from west valtan but the only server is south america only
i have gold, but no chaos dungs, it only gives me 2 right?
the only server i can pick is south america
yea only 2. your option is to buy from market (1gold for 10) or do the story quest for some of the islands(the onces that give mats)
awesome, thank you!
https://maxroll.gg/lost-ark/category/island
if you plan to do islands
Island Guides for Lost Ark. Learn about Island Tokens, Quests, Collectibles, Rewards, Mokoko Seeds, Achievements, Rapport and Exchange Merchants.
put these in your filter and it will show you all islands that give stones as rewards for doing the quest as well as how to get them
i really appreciate it. i cant get anyone else to answer or offer help
happy to help
since you just started im guessing you dont have any alts yet. if this character was an alt then id recomend doing tower as those give alot of mats for alts.
i dont remember what the rewards for doing it the first time is but i would still check it out
i did to wave 40, then i needed to be 500 and havent been back yet
How long does it take to speedrun an alt char to T3 using maxroll?
the yea, your option is islands or just buying it of the auction house. also if you do the dungeon from the story on hard/ez, each give different rewards
i always do hards, but trying to progress through the story to get higher level
tryna thug out
I'm thinking about getting into LA again, and I've been out of the loop for quite some time now. I think I burnt myself out by trying too many classes, so I want to focus on a select few. I really enjoyed destroyers playstyle, but I know he's really slow, and idk how he ages in end-game. Any advice?
im new, but deathblade is hella fun
hard and normal give different rewards. its best to do both if you can. as they botrh give different types of mats
ill keep that in mind!
I've played deathblade. Wasn't it for me when I got into it.
also, @dreamy bluff once im 600, do i just keep upgrading the same way or do i swap to something else?
how do you get this? where's kakul saydon (hard)?
once you get to 600, go to Yorn and do story there. that will unlock Chaos dungeon. this chaos dungeon will drop 802 gears, you will hone that 802 gear until you reach 1100
word, im on my way there now
there is no clown hard
this achievement is scam?
yup
so you jump from 600 to 802. then when you reach 1100, you do the same with Punnika and the chaos dungeon there will drop 1302 gear
dang
has been happening to a few folks around here, some people fix it by verifying game files, others by restarting their internet router, or flushing dns, or restarting the pc
also, i have like 5 million silver, is there a way to convert to gold?
there is no clear fix for this, sometimes it fixes alone as well, because your isp gives you a bad ip
nope, i wish
honest reply, dont
lemme try one of those thank you for the reply
how much xp is boss rush?
because of honing?
hes asking if you can convert it silver to gold, not gold to silver
you can convert gold into silver but not the other way around. silver is very rare and as you gear up, the things you upgrade will start draining it fast
gotcha, i just only have like 5k gold and 5m silver so i figured i'd ask
sicne gold is used on market. should i buy anything off the market at my level?
they removed/reduced the silver cost of lower gears so thats why you still have so much
anything i can buy to give me a fat boost or anything?
powerpass
not really, everything is nerfed and once you move on to the next tier the prevois tier stuff slowly become obsolite
i figured, i learned about gear transfer but that wont matter when i get 802 gear right?
so i woulndt recommend buying accessories at T1 or T2
my +15 gear or whatever will just be destroyed?
you transfer it onto the 802 gear
oh wow
you can buy power pass with real money if you really want to rush, but since you already did everything until rohendel, im not sure if its worth to buy or not unless you really really really want to skip things and have cash to spare
i dont mind playing through the game, since its my first run through
saves a small amount of mats when upgrading
ahh, i see. well if its gonna be obselete anyway, is there harm in doing it?
actually it doesnt, 0>2 is cheaper by like... the most minimal amount :^)
transfering your 600(+15) into the 802 gear basically gives you 1 free hone with the chaos gear
i see
It's been so long since I've done ocean content that I've forgotten, but was farming 3000 coins a lot? like of Gienna and Sceptrum Coins? how long would that take?
as for your old Tier 1 accessory after you move into Tier 2(Yorn/Feiton), you can just sell them on the market for 30-50g. and make a little gold(bussers like to buy them so might as well try your luck and hopefully get lucky and they buy yours)
also, i heard my server is dead, but there's HUNDREDS of bots, can you enlighten me on that topic?
you can also do these adventure islands that drop these chests to get your coind faster . are you out of pirate chests?
yeah im out of chests 😦 i always picked Sun coins, so i've got 80k of them but i dont have the lower coins lol
what server you are on? but yea there are alot of bots in the beginner areas of t1 t2 and most likely t3 by now
im on Sasha
oh im also on sasha
o hi fren
yeah our servers low population
but our bots are also kinda low compared to some of the other servers
gotcha. matchmaking is basically impossible
uhhh no
matchmaking is region wide brother
so all the NA-E servers
matchmake together
while its true that some servers might have low population, the matchmaking is cross servers so you will still be able to do stuff with other people. just that maybe harder to find people to talk to in general/region chat and less options of guilds
i play with people on Azena and Una all the time
Hey guys, I returned to lost ark after the tripod change and I didn't do any prep for it before I left. I just got most of my roster to 1415-1430 (excluding my main, who is 1470), should I stop progressing and focus my gold on catching up and fixing up my tripods? Or should i just take it slow via chaos dungeons and save my gold?
take it slow
the only thing a low-population server will hinder you in is Open World content, like world bosses, getting island souls, etc. Matchmaking and Party Finder is region wide, so we can queue up & party with all the other NA-E servers
id try to at least pick a favourite of those classes to focus on. while having multiple alts is fun, honing them att as the same time is gonna be painful
awesome. well that's good to know. maybe its just the lower level stuff thats hard to matchmake
tier 1,2 is dead on all regions
I figured, while I got lucky most of the time, getting most of them to 1430 was cutting it a bit close with my available mats lol
and how bad is 50-55?
Yeah Tier 1 and 2 is just dead content throughout the entire world basically. Every region has pretty much complained that it's hard to get new players into the game since the old stuff is so forgotten. If you can soldier through it though, endgame content is amazing
yea for things like party finder and matchmaking, all the serverss are connected so even if you specific server is low on actual players, it wont hinder you as the people you matchmake with 99% of the time wont be on your server.
yeah i started early yesterday, made it to 600 today. just having a hard time finding people for guardian raids so been doing them myself
Level 50 is the soft cap. After that, it's a slow trip to 60, but pretty much it's just for the skill points. Continue to do dailies, boss rushes/cubes, etc, and you'll get Level 60 in like... 4-6 months?
sheesh
sadly there arent alot of new players doing those content. and most of the "new players" you see, alot of them are just alts of already geared players that are making new characters. so they usually just skip those content as they already have the mats needed to upgrade
So… you can follow the speedrun to tier 3 guide on Maxroll. Ignore the guardian raids and just focus on islands. Islands are a catch up mechanic. They (plus a couple boxes from the event) should be enough to push tier 3.
Shouldn’t take more than a week to push into t3
so when you said focus islands, what exactly do you mean?
also what is maxroll?
that the planned guide?
Yeah but it's really just the one time, on your main. Your alts can use the Training Room in your stronghold to just "auto-level" in like a couple of weeks. They can only auto-train to 59 though, the last level you gotta do manually, but it takes like a week or 2
its the link i sent you
ooh the one you sent
this one is more of a general guide to get you to 1100 fast. mine was just only islands. this link should also talk about islands(hopefuly)
starting at 600 where should i begin in the guide? just got to Yorn
yes
Finish yorn story
Follow tier 2 island route
the tier 2 materials route is what its calling it, that one?
maxroll will be a very good friend to new players as they have guides for about everything
ya those seems to be islands that give you mats to upgrade your 802 gear
alright awesome, thanks again to everyone who helped me out. being new is always sussy
yea starting out in most mmos is always a pain as most people are already at the endgame. unless you join during a "new players burst" its gonna be hard to do all the content to reach end game
im an ex ESO player, found LA and so far i love it
Are the masterpieces from cube out of the reward box at the end or in bonus rooms?
Ilvl is 500 but i don't see outlaw isle
reward box
Am i missing something to go there?
so you cannot get masterpieces out of the bonus rooms?
I was pretty sure you could
but I'm not certain...
i think you can too actually

but not entirely sure, its only some specific bonus rooms and those are extremly rare
basically trying to decide if I should x3 ticket on hard cube or not
i think i got 1 from 1 but most of my master pieces have always been from the chests
unless you hate yourself, you should probably x3 it
but if it lowers my chance of masterpieces then... 
masterpieces will come eventually, having cube tickets sitting around is kinda meh
When does rest bonus recharge?
someone said that it took 8 months to get the masterpieces from hard cube cause their drop rate is abysmal
it doesnt lower, it can only increase or keep the same
at the begening alot of people use to do cube 1 by 1 but now, no one wants to go through that pain 1 by 1 anymore
idk what cube is
special dungeon, drops silver and some other rewards
Cube or Boss rush tickets that drops from Chaos Dungeon, they dont drop every run so maybe 1 in 4run or 1 in 8 runs if you really unlocky
And should I do. Higher levels of chaos dungeon or stick with level 1 I'm at g's 460
keep moving to the highest one you can do
on reset, 6am
Ahh ok ty
higher level ones gives you more mats
outlaw islands is here, the red X thingy
whats that one for?
probably upgrade materials from the island quest
Since you get Stone of Birth for free (the +777 vitality one) is there any reason to even cut the Stones of Endurance? They seem pretty bad and dismantling them only gives me sell junk items that sell for 1 silver, thinking about just starting to destroy all of them.
Only requirement is >460 ilvl?
its just a pvp islands you can get island soul from. it doesnt give anything else
yea should be
until you get to t3 and see legendary and epic stones you really dont need to cut any stones
you can, but its honestly a waste of silver imo
for now, you think they are worthless, later on they are very important to build up your char due to engravings, until you are t3 use whichever stone just for the hp
Thanks, I mean I might if I ever find any that can be better than my current stone but at this point they are pretty bad lol
unless you plan to use that stone for more then 3 weeks, no point on cutting it unless you have the silver to spare and want to chalenge the gambling gods
Thanks, I understand engravings are super important just specifically meant these low level ones, since the game gives you a better one and then a million of these garbo ones drop
yeah, just use the one that gives you the highest raw hp
worry about engravings once you're t3
yep
pick highest qual
until you have an upgrade for them dont destroy them
and dismantle rest
you just need one set of 302 and hone it to +15 each to reach tier 2 / yorn
are you not supposed to cut gems?
if you mean the chaos stuf then yes destroy of sell as you wish
Ok
gems? you get gems starting in T2. they are nice buy loses 50% of their value once you reach T3, so mot worth to do big investment in either
oh maybe i meant the stones
50% value-
oh ya . i was thinking accs
oof
been a long time, understandable
Any discord for legion raid learning runs?
discord . gg / datmodz
datmodz does do alot of teaching runs for players that havent done the raids before
if you have alot of disposable silver and want to try your luck then u can try it. just know that once you gear up you will have to throw it away in order to get stronger ones. just dont waste your gold on them
gotcha
also make sure your not wasting it on some stones that your class dont even need/uses
You sound like someone who’s been in silver shambles
Like me
nah fam, my silver shambles is different then most. if i go under 30mil silver that when i know ive been wasting too much silver. when you have to pay attention to the silver cost when honing, thats when you know you hit true rock bottom.
I went to 1.6k silver last month.
Now I’m at 20M. Hoarding for slayer.
i remember the days. i went months without using silver to to get back into normal teritory
now just trying to hone cost almost 1 mil silver
yeah brel gear is crazy expensive
Never understood why kr peeps got so excited about silver rewards and stuff.
I’m painfully aware now.
lol
in brel g3, if u get star diamond do you need to group with diamond or doesnt matter?
Star and square together, diamond alone
^
Wait
so having both star and diamond does not matter
All my t1 is +12
u still group
+15
What serious?
+15 T1 is 600, +15 T2 is 1100
Where do i get the harmony leapstones for that....
Islands and maybe a box or two from the event should be enough to push that in like one sitting.
Event?
I have a shit ton of boxes left over on my alt account from t1-2 islands.
daily login event should also give some leap chest
Didn’t need to do chaos or guardian raids. Just islands and an event box or two for shards.
go to the festival island
yea go to Festivity Island. you get event money from doing the daily there + the hourly fight.
Star and square group, diamond doesnt
event are not permanent, so do them while they are available as they will go away
What should I max t1 gear at
How do i uncheck the guardian raid reward box?
+15
Ty
Ok ty
+15 on everything gives you exactly 600
Per the guide?
When you get t2 gear you gear transfer?
Ignore all guardian raid things. It’s outdated.
just have a friend one shot them for you
+15 unlocks yorn. do yorn story, yorn story will unlock yorn 600iL chaos dungeon that drop 802iL gear. gear transfer your 600 gear into your 802 yorn chaos gear that you just got from the chaos dungeon. hone that to 1100. reapeat that with Punikka
after you finish Yorn story, remember to swicth to yorn chaos dungeon as it will always have your last chaos dungeon you ran auto selected. you dont want to accidently do rohendel chaos dungeon when you already have yorn unlocked
@dreamy bluff alright got. It thx.
between swift sharpshooter and swift summoner, which one is easier to play/ has higher survivability?
Is it possible to solo a world boss later on?
yes
Ok, i guess i'll just skip this hidden story, >.>.
Are battle supplies like bombs valuable?
Oh, someone just almost insta-killed that wb for me.
nice
Its kinda depressing seeing mostly bots all around, but there's some real players on the area as well.
That was suprising.
So just don't touch anything to not use up daily
Just clearing first time dungeons for fun
when you load in just check dont use guardian souls
I accidentally didn't
then you have to take it or you will lose it
Does that mean I used one?
you used it as soon as you killed the boss and had the checkmark on
if you don't pick them up you just wasted it anyway
Oh kk ty
how much wings is a vykas armor piece again
10
does knowledge transferring make some of the power pass options cheaper the close you get to them or are they the same price regardless?
cheaper
10$ cheaper per region
hell yeah thank you
Hi does anyone know where to find the verness ship?
Guys, did the powerpass expire ? The one we got for reaper
Not yet
So a new player can have 2 punika pass ?
No, theres never a second free punika pass at any time
but you can buy one unlimited
There is one u get by reaching punika in first char
The free one will expire eventually. Imma bet it’ll be when the express event expires.
No?
No, that's the free one
The berver's friend quest that gives the pass is the free one people get
Yeah
event to be speciifc
There is berver friend quest and there is reaper pass
So its 2
its the same one
If my friend wanna start playing the game, how many punika pass he gets
1
So only vern is 2 ?
Vern is 2, yes
Okay thank u
Many as they want with money
guys i am trying to make my 5x3 on wardancer and i cant see to get it i have FS 12 books mass incrse 12 book and a 8/6 stone can i get 5x3 with this please any help would be awesome
use a engraving planner
what's 8/6 ?
thats the stone i have
use this to plan your gear https://loa-todo.com/engrave
what stone is it
^ what engraving is 8 and what is 6 on your stone?
its raid captain and keen blunt
raid is 6
and keen is 8
what engravings do you want
this is how it looks like and i want grude
i found a cheap earing with keen 4 and FS 3
and it has attack power reduction 1 on the earing
uh u have leg grudge?
something like this should be cheap to build
seems like waste to build it like that since mi is a cheap engraving on acc
+5 grudge is pretty cheap
chedck ur dm if u can ty
What date do the event gems expire? haven't finished my hyper express yet
I don't think the gems will expired, only the event
if you dont get the gems before the event expires, byebye gems, if you get them, they are permanent
nice
no worry there the event lasts until Feb 8th 2023
so i want to switch mains but i already claimed the free event thing for the funny outfit can i change it between my roster or no?
idk if that question makes sense
if u still have the box and havent opened it then its good
if u have the mokoko costume then ur fked, its only moveable to characters of the same class ( so warriors only for example)
is there any class except ignite sorc where lwc 12 (7% crit) is better than los 18 (7% holy)?
ahh ok ty
104 votes and 54 comments so far on Reddit
can u get more mokoko costumes or nah?
yeah its called time
they have been giving them out during events and shit
ohh so u cant just buy it ty
idk why you cant buy one
The mokoko costumes are usually from gifts, events, event shop, twitch drops etc. They're never for sale.
cause when they do u know its time to dip out of the game
ty
You're not wrong.
If they release mokoko skins or pets in the shop, they're doing bad financially and need to make some cash LOL
lmao i have to agree
for lostwind cliff card set whats the hardest card to get?
some of the legendary cards you can get with achievements, so theyre not that bad, awakening them sucks
i have 0 legs awakened in my lwc but i have maxed solas and seria
how much dps is the holy damage bonus for vykas g2/3 with no awakening?
What’s my gold makers at 1500
raids, dailies
Out of the non legendaries for LWC, solas is considered the hardest one. But you can get him through solas runs (Runs of the main story quest up to the end of luttera iirc?)
no sane person does solas runs
I did two solas runs
i said any sane person, we all know your not sane
Fuсk
lol
tbh solas runs are not that bad, its finishing the character to get to nvern
Nah, you just delete and run it back
solas takes like 33% of the time compared to the rest of the journey
It's 10%. Same fot g4 brel
nah i needed it cause no paid pp back then for destroyer
Is it worth to hone my alts above 1415 ?
yes? unless you only want to do all the raids and fun stuff on your main
if you want more gold and time sinks more high ilvl chars is for you
how much on average does it cost to go from 1415 - 1430 in gold like buying the mats
idk use the upgrade calculator on maxroll
check maxroll calculator
nope
ty
thats teh correct amount of mats
but its not showing you the gold value of buying them all, as you haven't entered the market prices in the section above
for ur map and the "legends" tab does it save whatever u check on/off when u log out and log back in or no?
oh i just checked on auction house but i will od it from next time
Should i be using ony bound leaps or unbound as well ?
only bound is better
i have 250 great honors unbound saved should i sell them or use them ?
up to you
i only use bound personally
ok but i can use unbound other mats right like guardian stones and destrution stones
yeah
those are 1 gold no point in selling them
Hey guys, theoretically if someone downloads lost ark and makes their first character, do they get the punika pass and access to the hyper express event? Or do they still have to progress through the story?
progress first
Nah, they get the express event.
But they have to go through the whole story first?
no
kinda
Just walked someone through buying a S. Vern power pass and how to use the express event on a fresh account.
is there a bug with the guild raid challenge thing right now? the challenge button is greyed out for me (deputy) and guild master despite us not running velkan this week
anyone on una server has convtion rune /
whats generally the most expensive class to build for endgame and cheapest to build for endgame?
most exp is like DEATH BLOW striker and deathbalde surge those kinda big numbers classes
not sure about the cheap ones
can you upgrade ability stones or change one's engraving node or no?
ahh ok ty
what do we do with tier 1 bound mats on a tier 3 character?
hard question since u can apply different categories to that question
u can say that the most expensive classes are the burst classes and the cheapest are supports and non meta
but if ur talking about minmaxing, surge becomes cheap because it only requires one lvl 10 dmg gem while most non metas require like 6 -7
destroy or sell to vendor for silver
Generally, spec entropy builds are the most expensive if we're talking accessories.
For class specific books, currently its probably deathblow
And as for lvl 10 gems depends on the class and builds. Some require 1 damage gems while some require up to 7
What's the difference between challenge guardian raid and regular?
its scaled
one is daily homework the other weekly with more rewards
Challengr guardian raid is stat balanced and a weekly thing
Should i do it at ilvl 550?
No better rewards if i wait?
technically yes, ur rewards go up the higher ilvl u are i believe
kinda like una tokens
I would highly suggest waiting.
I would wait until 1370 since you should be able to hit that before reset. If you can't hit it before reset, go ahead I guess.
how come everyday I get one that cant be used
whens a good time to start using solars on my brel weapon? or should i just keep juicing it
Personally, I did plan on using some but +20 is kinda free. Especially considering we got like another 3 months before brel hard. Id keep them for ancient
Thats what I ended uo deciding to do, other than the odd juice here and there on a few taps when I felt like it
But yeah if you plan on playing that long and pushing your ancient to like +25 or something Id just wait tbh
+20 brel weapon is free?
Well, compared to +25, yeah
Within the 3 months we have its easily doable imo
i guess
I did mine from 15 to 20 with like 2700 leaps or something. Not too bad.
Average is probably 2200-2500 dont remember
you just got lucky then
Just checked. Its average.
I pitied 16 17
uses more than average
"you just got lucky"
Decent luck on the rest though
Average is 2680 leaps from 15 to 20 according to maths.
132k raw gold, 2k orehas 107k destruction and 1.2m shards.
Within 3 months thats not too bad, to completely max out a weapon lol.
Assuming you already have some shards or get some from events.
whats the stronghold dispatch effect?
You have them mark the lower lvl tripods even if you've already learned the same lvl or higher
Do challenge raids scale based on # of party members?
Yes
yes
RIP
why
just use something broken like glavier or gt destroyer
Did igrexion and only got down to 50%
Just use match making or make a party in party finder asking for help.
Wait, just match make for challenge ones.
Worth learning the mechanics or nah
Do you get more ilvl per level in Brel gear? e.g should I convert my +21 or my +20 first ?
+20 gives more
all 17
for a DPS player make sense to buy grudge today? i mean i saw (some) accs with grudge and they are pretty low cost.
the more dps u got the better it is ( my case since i have 21 toons then yeah its worth)
if u just 6 toons then prob not
probably even less
if u dont picture urself playing more than 6 character or even more dps then grudge books are kinda garbage for u
you just made that treshhold up lol
in general grudge is more worth the more dps you have
Ooo then i might hold them too, thank you for sharing your weapon tapping experience :o
but setting a treshhold is personal opinion
It can make sense, but if you have 4-6 DPS that use KBW as an example, then that's good too.
You want the most universal books for your roster, weighed against the average cost of those engravings on accessories.
I went with Grudge and Cursed doll due to my whole roster benefitting from both of those (Except Bard).
I went with grudge and keen, but now I realize I should’ve gotten ambush instead of keen. Oh well.
anyone has any idea why he doesn't have the quest for me
the required quest is a sad history and i have completed it
21 alts. wth
is that even possible on 1 server?
Is weapon quality a flat damage increase?
Multiplicative*
Cause when you succeed quality tap is says “x additional damage”
is sorc a good alt?
sure
Anything is a good alt. They will all require some investment, some more than others
the bots seem to think so
is reflux or igniter better for alt purposes
Reflux if you want to save gold
reflux if you have no idea what youre doing
Reflux is hugely cheaper to build
epic thanks
igniter if you want to do more dmg
But do you realllly wanna go reflux 
igniter if you want to do any damage

Tbh I’m not even convinced reflux is cheaper endgame. You need more tripods and damage gems than igniter
Yea but tripods for characters before tripod changes are super cheap
we dont need damage gems where we are going jimbo
Like 200 gold for good lvl 5 tripods
Yes but for a new alt …
But for reaper it’s 20k
each
Still giga cheap imo
No one needs lvl 5s on old characters because everyone prepared
If you didn’t that’s a skill issue 
It’s still not cheap to get the tripods if you want them? Pheons are not (always) free
Idk I have a 2nd alt reaper and I only can buy lvl 5s for 200g in my dreams
Ok but you know that the 200g is fake right? 7 pheons are like 1.5k anyway
1.7k for tripods still a dream
for 20% change
Which is higher gold atm (ignoring bracelet odds) kunga or cali?
kung
Like same thing for na west
But you save more battle items
It’s the same battle items
And also save your sanity
You use fewer in turtle than in carl
Bro in cali sometimes I end up using 6pots 3 ww 3 d
skill issue
If your not using destros like you supposed to then that’s el cheap out of the party you go
Or ww
What do you mean “supposed to”
Only letting it slide for warriors
The checks are not hard
Only when im on destroyer do i not ww/d lol
Gotcha, ty. That makes it pretty simple for me
Ww isnt super necessary either, tbh
Gold income is more important than honing and bracelets for me atm, so I'll save cali for when I have grudge 12
Destruction however is hit or miss depending on the team comp
Also for when people are better at the fight because good god matchmaking that graid is not fun
and yeah destro check can be hard with certain comps
But it’s also the least bad to fail
Yeah, I've had to solo carry that guardian because everyone else dies, just run away from the stagger check at that point
As all it means is that you miss orbs, and when you get the SCD again, the destruction you did before is still there so it’s an even easier check
When my teammates dont use shit and keep messing up mechs, its not. Lol
Oh, that's neat. Didn't know that the destruction carried over
I feel this
Ofc I joke. It’s a shit guardian for real
But bracelet odds 
But just saying that with a not troll comp it’s not much worse than kunga
We dont get hanu until april tho 
Oh, yeah, I've had a few runs with like, bard, gl and two dps' and there's literally no pots used there
If you're lucky to have a proper support main and not a shit-alt they can pretty much solo cali mech with the correct build
But kunga is also a no pots used graid, just without the bard required
Even on kunga I’ve seen people troll themselves with parties with zero destruction. Running around for 1 min+ before shield breaks
True
But the point is that kunga is ez matchmake, whereas caliligos is always rough
Similar gold amounts means that I'm just going to stick to kunga for a while
Not gonna waste my time in pf for an hour just for a guardian
kung is still gonna suck since only alts run it now
I've had zero problems on my on ilvl GL the last few days
on NAW lots of mains still running kunga because MLS prices are floor bottom
Yeah
You get more MLS running kunga, selling the GHL and buying MLS than you do by running cali
How many does Cali drop?
3 unrested?
no bracelet drop
5 per
It’s 10 per 2 for Karl compared to 14 for 2 for kunga
No bracelet drop when running Cali anyways 
Last I checked on EUC Karl is still more
It’s just not by much
And yeah if you churn through battle items it’s a wash too
That's honestly the biggest problem. Kunga is 1 per, and if I don't matchmake into a bard or pally then Cali is like 3-4 plus pots
Takes only 1 Karl jail to make it not worth, and its a non- 0% chance, esp with multiple characters
Shrug. I gamba for the bracelet drop
Not like I have the time to run anything daily
Just do it on rested
I've gotten two from Cali so far but they were both traaaash
I just think people enjoying kunga now is funny given it’s still such a trash guardian to fight.
It's just boring. You hit the big dumb turtle for 3 minutes then it dies
The best are the never ending destro check I’ve talked about. And also the dumb times it skips any DPS between 1st and 3rd phase
Do I have to do South Vern to unlock Kakul Saydon Rehearsal?
Yeah
yes
South Vern is required for anything legion raid related
Thank you.
If I upgrade all my Brel gear to +15 what ilvl do I reach?
1540
Aside from argos. Is there a easy way to get the 1300-1370 honing books?
at like 20g each its worth for like 12-15
do you even need the books tho
Which is more than the gold one lol
So why does that matter. Still worth buying them
maybe only use for 13-15, i used on the armour, weapon just took my rng
Or you can raw tap.
the lowest it goes till 1370 is 50% isnt it?
I think it barely makes a difference given global honing
this was with books on each hit, even 14-15 was like 60% so its 2 tries if youre unlucky
I'm weighing my option. Just take the hit and buy them or if there is an ez way to get them
market is the only way to get many of them now
just raw dog it
^
if you ever plan to make more alts, buy up a bunch of yellow books when they drop
Geting up to 1370 is pretty high odds anyways
It's not until like the last roll before 1415 when odds get a little irritating
I got a stock of yellow books. But ran out of purple
just raw dog it then
Ok, thanks
how do i start a group in the lfg chat
Can I ask a very personal question? How many hours do you guys spend playing lostark? I find I’m spending too much time 😦
Around 4 hours a day, more when I have raids to slot into my schedule
It's getting lower though the more una's reputations I finish, so it might be closer to 3 at this point
you are gunna have to ask amazon about that, because nearly all of the bracelet stats/names/buffs have some ridiculous translation problems
Fervor is another bracelet effect
i dont even know what half of them do, im sticking to just main stats and what i understand
Lol ok so this is like 1 in 100000 to get that working then since you need both?!
Fervor is the better single line, yes
anyone else has that bug? 2 days in a row now that guardian raid and una task don't regen?
they don't regen + I don't get rested back
It's only on my gunlancer that it's happening
It started doing this after my weird Argos run tuesday, i randomly got the weekly reset message, all my legions reset, my training on my summoner went from 1 day to 7 day completed, could reclaim una tokens, went from 0 rested to full rested on the gunlancer, could redo weekly challenge content, (basically if my game skipped a week on my gl), and that happened at 8pm so nowhere near the actual reset time xd
does anyone know whats wrong with my dismantle settings? im currently tier 2 and trying to get tier 2 gear from chaos dungeon but i think everything is being auto dismanteled
hey i need some advice, i'm a returning player sitting at 3x3, 1455 ilvl, and 40k gold ( no leg engraving). Should i keep getting PL for a long time and AIM for 5x3 or can i build a cheap 4x3 +1 (adrenaline) and start to play normally ?
Is there a detailed guide as to what is actually the mechanic for 42x shape breaking in brel G3. Mainly I want to know
-
What causes the team wide wipe even if squares group up and diamonds go away. My hunch is if you fail the stars in the middle?
-
All the guides say that the person with diamond+star should stay away, but in one of my runs, this person grouped with the squares and still survived?? You can also see it happen in ATK's guide (timestamped 5:39 watch the gunslinger) https://youtu.be/iZDeHElmBg4?t=339
What’s a PL?
I would do 4x3 +1 because 40k gold is nowhere remotely close to what you’ll need for 5x3 with no book.
power leveled ig?
it doesnt say anything about star diamond player staying away
only that diamond players have to stay away from them and they do
On that specific guide yes, but you can see on other guides. If star+diamond moves away everyone also survives. So maybe it is a case of star+diamond only needs to stay away from other diamonds 🤔
can u give ur other alts stone ability's or no?
You can mail them, but it’ll cost pheons to claim it.
ahh ok ty
how i can unlock energy buster skill i'm already lvl 50 but idon't have it!!?
if there is a good guide for it pls help me with it
machinist class
You're trolling right?
You're dismantling everything unless it is Ancient item rank or if it's an item with a favorited engraving or tripod.
Set it to T1 items if you want all the T2 stuff, or at T2 items but with quality <20 being destroyed.
Is it possible to get a 5x3 with a 6/6 stone?
Yes.
7/7 or 9/5 is with a single legendary book.
It'll cost a furtune more in accessory costs though.
Eh, I wound up getting a 7/6 on the next stone anyways, I'll take it ig
Defense reduction two, yikes
Can someone show me a auto dismantle setting that will dismantle all level 4 tripods and below?
keep everything 5
if possible dismantle anything 5 that i already have
At what level do i unlock the combat training thing on stronghold
I can’t seem to get 5x3 with 7/7 stone though 😦 all relic accessories
Would it be better to go for a 4x3 with desperate salvation 3 or set up for a 5x3 down the line, leaving desperate salvation at +2?
Also is vph or doe preferred as the fifth bard engraving?
what is better, cruel fighter or upright fighter?
no like what stronghold level i already have a lovl 53 character and done have it
Cruel (20% 8man, 40% 4man > Upright (10% 8man 20% 4man)
how much silver you usually get out from cube x3 tickets (diamond chest)?
what is that i hit level 53 on my main and i didnt get anything my stronghold level is 15 btw
do stronghold quest
is this the right price ? i have the same thing just confirming
100k each chest not counting golden room
is there a way to reach 5x3 from 7/5 stone 12/12 engraving?
yes
Say i play on nia, am i allowed to also make a roster on ealyn and earn gold there?
can i cheese with necklace? i mean take 53 necklace but the 3 is random engraving?
I think so not sure i would have to visually see it. What engraving u are want
current stone are ambush master 7 & raid captain 5
control 12,adrenaline or grudge 12
No you can’t
nah ur gonna always be short
yea
Not without a 7/7
what should i exchange my joytide stars for?
Or a 9/5
rip
the most u will get is 4x3 + 2
i hate gamble on stone so much, so many money wasted
too bad, my glaivier hit 1460 soon so i will gatekeeped hard without 5x3
You can only cheese it with a second legendary book because it gives you + 3 nodes compared to just 1 leg book
And with 1 leg book you need a 7/7 or a 9/5
i do have both leg books
k lemme see
Yes, so you get +3 nodes spare
But you lose 2 nodes on your stone because it’s 7/5
i have both leg adrenaline and grudge i can choose
So you only have 1 “spare” node for 5x3
so i can cheese the necklace?
No
anyone know what the best pack is to open from the challengers card pack u get from challenge abyss?
man its been 100 pheons not a single one 77
what argos set should i get at 1370?
for summoner
if you wanna run LA in 21:9 but without black borders, what Monitor/Resolution you need?
please make me for summoner 😭
what engraving u want
idk the best one for summoner i just made the character but i want to focus on it
is there a better use of my joytide stars other than buying leapstones to upgrade my gear?
i think any wide monitors could do it
u want swiftness summoner or the burst build?
you would need a 21:9 monitor usually 3440 x 1440 34"
gonna need a beefy pc to run that tho
12400f with RX 6700 XT
if you dont plan on running max settings or expect anything more than 60ish fps you gonna be fine
3440x1440 is pretty much 4k
Anybody knows between swift(LC) sharpshooter and swift summoner which one is easier to play?
Easy to build more survivable etc.
but ultrawide also exist for 2k, 1440p
3440 x1440 is 2k
but its ultrawide has more pixels so its as hard to run as 4k
4k ultrawide is something like 6k
can do something like this
grudge 5 prob. cheaper than adre5
yea which ever u can find
hmm i wanna put lv1 summoner too
i heard its like very helpful
with CO
that's whale stuff with relic tho 🐳
wait i need 6th engraving for it?
uh
It's not viable until ancient accessories to go 5x3+1.
Unless you happen to get super lucky.
idk how big the help if i replace raid capt for that lv1
u should prob. adre2 if u really want master summoner and keep raid captain at 3
Check the community guide in #summoner.
but you'll need some relic master summoner 5 ring which is expensive
10/10 wouldn't recommend
this is the cheapest option right?
check your market, highly depends on what engravings you already bought
but I could imagine going for grudge 5 accessoires is cheaper than adre 5
everyone wants adre5
So I am unsure what Legion Set to go. I am building Swiftness Sorceress since it feels really good to be speedy. The set in the picture, is the stuff I have to go right? Cuz my guildies told me I should go full Nightmare Flower set 
that is going to be expensive because summoner is new. I have summoner too and I am just using a 4x3 build with scuffed acessories and will just re-buy a build for 5x3 wen everything is cheaper
yeah ill do the same
you'll atleast want the 4-pc nightmare as you will run oom any other way
reflux tries to stay in boundless for cdr for the majority of the fight
dominion is nice because you can use your awakening for additional dmg boost (better than 2 more nightmare pieces)
Oh I am Swift Ignite and not Reflux tho ;; sorry
so the picture I showed is the stuff I have to go yes?
Alright ty!
can I do something if the new year's gift was claimed on a server that will never be used after
by mistake
Nope
You can. Nothing will come of it.
great, one legendary card less
I mean. Kind of your own doing in having multiple rosters…
Idk maybe there will be a server merge in the future and you get all your stuff
I forgot to claim it on one roster and made my sister an account on another roster...
But why didn’t your sister make her own roster on her own steam account
she don't have one
They’re not hard to get
she's going to I guess
Also unclear how this would be managed, given you wouldn’t be able to play if she played …
It's still a single Lost Ark account even with another roster in a different server. It would also cause what you just described, to happen every single time, in the way that only one of you get the rewards. Not to mentioned shared royal crystals, blue crystals and such.
Like RFP said, get her own Steam account and make her use that instead. That way you can play together as well.
hey guys where can i find the 2nd? awakening quest? the one that get my 2nd awakening?
Quest chain in rohendel.
Though I strongly advise in just getting to punika, using the punika PP on an alt and completing it that way
The awakening quest chain is very long
is it the pass that I get at lvl 50? or the purchasable one?
Well you can purchase a punika PP. but currently you can get a punika pass for free as part of an event once you have completed punika
what quest chainline do I have to follow? im 1346 and I have 1 event quest "invitation in the snow"
Hey guys, since I didn't prep for the tripod change, should I be constantly doing chaos dungeons to continuously get amulets daily to get them up? Or can I still keep it chill and rely on rest bonus?
To get the punika pp? It’s the purple questline in punika once you finish the story. It starts in nia’s palace iirc, and ends with the quest “berver’s friend”
Er, kind of up to you? If you have time chaos dungeons are the most profitable part of the game/time spent
You start getting a ton more relic rarity amulets from 1490 chaos+ so you will start to slowly accumulate them
You can also buy amulets/fodder from the market
Though amulets cost pheons so, tripods are expensive
I have the time it just gets really tedious for me to do chaos dungeons daily on all 6 of my main characters that I play on. And i'm willing to use the gold I earned from this week to invest in getting my tripods up since I need to take a second to improve all of their builds before I keep honing
I'm just a little stuck on what to do rn to keep progressing other than stack up mats for honing
And dailies
Meh, I personally find chaos dungeons reasonably relaxing on most classes which have good chaos dungeon clear
Idk where you roster is at so hard to suggest things more specifically
But yeah, progression is kind of just honing, getting your engravings, sorting out tripods and gems
I could try and explain my situation more, I just didn't want to flood chat lol 😅
I would say I would typically focus on getting your characters geared appropriately for the content they are doing, and then focussing on getting their tripods to max levels once you’re at 5x3
does the game show u anywhere like the counter for the new 20 market limit thing?
I forgot they add that
Pre 5x3, you should be able to get level 4 tripods from chaos dungeon easily enough
can 5x3 engraving achieved without +12 gold books ?
Yes. With some ridiculous stone
But generally, no
You should be getting 2x leg books for 5x3 if you want to build it with any sort of decent quality (ie stats) so you’re not paying ridiculous amounts for pieces like the neck
But yeah, it’s kind of up to you in the end. I just personally wouldn’t skimp out and buy cheapo accessories when making 5x3
leg books meaning i wont be using class books ? i will be using things like CD and grudge for books ?
No I would personally get a class book if you intend to have the class engraving at level 3
Because class engraving accessories are the most expensive
No
i would say with the exception of some class for example sorc I made my 5x3 build recently using +5 class acessory instead of books for less cost. cuz igniter book alone for 20 is almost 300k already lol
Shrug yeah that can work, but again it’s a quality issue
It’s extremely rare to find class accs with high quality full stop
yea its harder / less options if u go that route lol
idk before i saw there were alot of igniter 5 / cursed doll 3 earing and rings like 2 week ago but now i see there are none
and like they went sold for these prices lol
if you’re happy with green rings
green rings are fineeeeee lol
My 1667 spec Igniter build only cost 80k due to Igniter books, you'll pay much more than books + 80k for good quality class accessories.
And you'll have to pay for class engravings yet again once ancient accessories come out.
Does anyone know if researching things in your guild gives you guild XP? We're trying to push to 18 for the increased Bloodstone distribution.
Anyone knows if it's better to hold on brel mats to transfer weap first instead of 2 items? Dps wise
if you alr have gloves and shoulders maybe otherwise definitely not
This is actually a very good point also
this is THE main point for buying class books
and its gonna pay off soooo much
unless you play a lvl 1 class engraving build class books are pretty much a must imo
Yeah, already got those 2, so I m considering if I should save for weap or not
if you can r run g5 6 why not if you cant yet I'd get another piece to make it cheaper
new wep aint gonna give much and it costs absolutely insane amounts of shards to fill up
Clearing all gates, so that's fine, I m only saving up one week instead of transferring 1 item
thats true i definetly did over look that part. But realistically most ppl wont get ancient acessory until like 1-2months after release maybe even longer with how over-priced and scarce they will be and to even find one that is worth replacing a high quality relic acessory. I still think me buying the class acessory over buying 20 igniter books for almost 300k is better move for now. This build will last me long and i can just buy books later they should go down maybe
generally class5 x3 is better than book + class3, but all depends
Not a question of better/worse. Just how much you are willing to spend/invest and what you want your character to look like
I personally don’t want anything under blue/purple on my characters
Which is just very hard to do with class5 stuff
are anyone else having problems with gate 5 stagger mech?
We kept doing it in the right order but brel keeps wiping us without spawning the portals
Is argon still broken? I finally got my skillet but the statues arnt resetinng
The "falling horn of indulgence" from brelshaza is a random drop or guaranteed drop from a gate?
Ok I think I got the punika power pass, so now if I use it I'll become what gear lvl exactly? and it will unlock what? 2nd awakening questline and other stuff?
Should I take the time to bring all of my alts through the south vern story? They're all 1420-1430 or higher
They reset at something like 1 am or something weird
You need to in order to access the chaos dungeons
I personally would because it’s a good chunk of exp (including roster exp) and also quite a few card packs, and doesn’t take that long
They reset at 01:00 ST for EU, no idea about NA.
- It completes all story and side quests up to punika
Which includes 2nd awakening
Is there a preferrable alt class? like a class that clears 1302 content quickly or idk really good at being an alt
A class you'd like playing or support.
Once you do it, you should be able to just speak to Beatrice on all your characters and get the awakening
if you have your main at 5x3 with both grudge and class eng, do you all buy class engravings for your alts?
The only truly amazing alt classes are supports and transform classes (demonic sh and evo scouter) because they don’t require as much investment to do well
Some like surge and igniter also work because of gems/tripods being less onerous requirements
(Doesn't apply to 5x3 transformation classes)
But ultimately, you should pick something you want to play
What do you mean? Only needing 2 gems and few tripods is still a huge cost saving




a swift igniter enjoyer
