[shadow birch]

come on! really?? well, I guess i spoke too soon

i guess i should check myself enjoying a game and just keep it to myself from now on

[river lynx]

Ayayay that was a compliment 💀💀💀

Express your appreciation of the game to your heart's content

[shadow birch]

chad where I come from is a male version of a karen

[river lynx]

LOL

That's unfortunate

[waxen cloak]

Question, is there any real difference between Wardancer and Striker outside of just gender? Like stats or something?

[shadow birch]

my apologies, I honestly thought you were giving me a hard time

I tend to get a little aggro sometimes

[river lynx]

A great deal of us do so too

it's aight

[shadow birch]

preesh 8 u

[atomic orchid]

If I have chars on Mari that I earn gold on, can I make characters on Valtan(same US WEST region) and earn gold on them too?

[brazen zodiac]

What's the difference between crafting cost and crafting cost reduction. Is there a noted best outfits and structures somewhere?

[rose jewel]

yeah there is, deathblow is nothing like wardancer, damage is actually top tier lmao, and since you're spec instead of just swift, you're expensive to build, but you shit damage left and right

esoteric is kinda the same, deathblow is one of the most expensive shits to build in the entire game

[waxen cloak]

Ahhh... okay, thank you!

[rose jewel]

different roster, so yes, you will now have 12 gold earners

you cant mail the gold tho, you gotta transfer using AH

[solid hollow]

Guys full upgraded Astray with every crew, etc except Epic BF max speed is 54ish?

[thorn cave]

will i ever run into issues having a full inventory and entering a raid? itll just always go into mail right

[river lynx]

Yes.

[thorn cave]

oh what could happen?

[river lynx]

nah I meant whatever won't fit into your inventory just gets mailed to you

[thorn cave]

oh ok thanks

[shut pasture]

It will go to your mail, but there is like...literally no reason why your inventory should be full

Or near full

The most you need to hold in your personal inventory is consumables and maybe honing materials that you haven't otherwise stored in your roster storage

[crude dawn]

does anyone know where to find the NAE bus discord?

[solid hollow]

What's the expected max speed of Astray full upgraded?

[shut pasture]

For some reason I want to say...50 something or other? With the right crew. I'm not 100% sure on that. Its just faster than everything else regardless.

[rose jewel]

look in google

[ashen jackal]

It seems like all the structures I can craft require gold, is there something I'm missing or do I have to wait until I have gold to build any structures for my stronghold?

[shut pasture]

Have to wait until you get gold. Are you level 50 yet?

[ashen jackal]

Nah, Im level 29

Just figured if it let me get the quest, I would be able to do it soonish

[terse coral]

@rose jewel i just got to vern , do i have to finish the zone before getting my powerpass and switching mains?

[river lynx]

Yes

[rose jewel]

ye

[terse coral]

ok ty

[shadow birch]

it's so funny seeing everyone run around with the brown horse lol

[rose jewel]

bots

[amber totem]

hh

[shut pasture]

You'll be getting gold once you hit endgame at level 50. Thats when you can start completing Una's Tasks which give tokens that can get you weekly gold, as well as Abyssal Dungeons that give a bit of gold as well. Ultimately T3 is going to be giving you the most gold, but you have to work towards that.

[shadow birch]

makes sense

[ashen jackal]

Got it, so probably just abandon the quest for now

[amber totem]

yeah leave it for later

[shut pasture]

No, don't abandon it. Just leave it for later.

[amber totem]

IDK why the make those quests have you build stuff that costs gold, you get them so early. It makes no sense.

[rose jewel]

uncheck it from the list for now

go to J

[shut pasture]

^

[ashen jackal]

Oh I guess just ignore it then

[shadow birch]

ikr this had me triggered and confused lol

[rose jewel]

it makes sense

[ashen jackal]

Yea, I try and do everything as I go

[rose jewel]

it made sense, months ago

[shut pasture]

Well...

[rose jewel]

before they deleted the early gold you got from quests

[ashen jackal]

Which is why I try and check here when something seems weird

[amber totem]

oh

[shut pasture]

We used to get gold as you leveled to 50

[amber totem]

You used to get early gold?

[shut pasture]

but...bots

So....

[amber totem]

..

[shadow birch]

oh wow!

[amber totem]

I bet other regions get those gold still right

[shut pasture]

Not a lot of gold. Just bits.

[rose jewel]

welcome to the amazonia

[shadow birch]

man bots really do ruin everything

[amber totem]

I see on maxroll some NPC give gold as reward for rapport too

we clearly dont have that

[shut pasture]

They aren't as heavily botted, so yeah.

[shut pasture]

Yeah, no, not anymore. Unfortunately.

[shadow birch]

still worth the grind

[shut pasture]

Glad I got all that gold when I did.

[shadow birch]

lol i bet

[rose jewel]

in the grand scheme of things

that gold was just 1 raid of 1 char in a week

for the amount of work you needed to put to get it

[shut pasture]

Yeah, but it was still something.

[rose jewel]

it was nothing

[amber totem]

Gold is terrible for new players. You can barely get any and you need heaps of it.

[shadow birch]

well dern

[shut pasture]

Give us KR account creation system. Bots fixed.

[amber totem]

You can still get enough to just get you by, but its tough.

[rose jewel]

and people going like "how the fuck am i supposed to make gold if you delete the ways to get it!" when they are veterans that didnt finish their rapport in 8 months

[amber totem]

lol

[rose jewel]

fuck out of here lmao

[amber totem]

Meanwhile they are doing 18 raids a week

That nets like 200k+ right?

[rose jewel]

60k or so, maybe 80

nowhere near 200 unless you bus

[shut pasture]

Yes, that is them being fucking stupid. Agreed. Couldn't take 30 seconds to just dump their hoarded rapport items onto a couple NPCs

[amber totem]

200k is like 100 usd a week. If you bus argos 6 times you can get 1400x 7

[rose jewel]

and we got the notice 12hrs before the thing got yeeted

so i will just laugh at those individuals

[amber totem]

~60k from Argos bus if you do it solo

Can someone solo carry argos? youd need two right

[rose jewel]

you cant solo argos

[ashen jackal]

Is there a good guide somewhere on what rapport to give to which NPCs for new players?

[amber totem]

30k each is still a lot of money

[rose jewel]

maxroll

[shut pasture]

https://maxroll.gg/lost-ark/rapport

[amber totem]

but I doubt people run 6x. Since most people have support in their roster

[rose jewel]

most?

[ashen jackal]

Beautiful, thank you, I figured somebody would have something like that

[rose jewel]

[amber totem]

... Dont they?

[rose jewel]

[shut pasture]

Ehh no

[amber totem]

I guess if you played from start you dont need support

[shut pasture]

We have a support shortage for a reason

[amber totem]

I need support to get into raids kekw

pug at least

[shut pasture]

And Artist release is not going to solve it like I think some people may still believe

[ashen jackal]

Ill have to rewatch some videos on Rapport

[amber totem]

tldr for rapport is save all your rapport gifts

Depending on what you are after you focus on that. Theres a bunch of rapport that gets you giant hearts for example.

[shut pasture]

And you need Giant Hearts for Skill Points

[amber totem]

I have been doing blackfang every day cos I want fast ship.

Omnium stars, giant hearts good to focus on first

[brazen quarry]

can anyone explain what a static is?

[uneven robin]

same group of ppl u play with

[terse coral]

will i need to do things on my current main before instantly powerpassing my 2nd char and maining that? one video said you miss out on all the rewards from shushire . is that a big deal or will i be fine to just switch over then and there

[rose jewel]

what video

[wintry mauve]

Not that I can think of. If u haven’t cleared tower yet on ur first character that could be a goal

[rose jewel]

its probably either extremely outdated info or fake news

no you dont need to worry about anything, just finish vern, get powerpass, create new char, powerpass it, make him/her you new "main" from char select screen and set

you're gonna delete your old main or something?

[terse coral]

@rose jewel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XgINU2iSQTQ

10 months

[rose jewel]

ima look at it just to laugh at it later (probably)

[terse coral]

not unless i need to , i dont plan to switch again in the near future

lol

[wintry mauve]

What do u even get from shushire just cards?

[rose jewel]

ok

first minute into the video

"If you switch servers you will get another powerpass"

fake info

[terse coral]

xD ok

[rose jewel]

that's 1

[terse coral]

guess this is the only place i need to come for info

[terse coral]

is it bad that i never stored my cards from lvl 1 -50 and just popped them all to save space??

[amber totem]

maxroll is good too

I hope you didnt pop legendary selection packs

otherwise it doesnt matter

[terse coral]

i dont think i did

ive saved most everything

[amber totem]

The reason its advised not to use cards is because you will run out of space quickly and have to buy card slots with purple crystals

[terse coral]

but purple blue cards from quest id just pop

[rose jewel]

"You will lose things like silver, gold, hone materials..." blabla, good but the gold is outdated already, we dont get gold anymore

[wintry mauve]

I mean open any cards u want that’s not a selection pack

[amber totem]

3rd line from bottom. far left. That gold card pack

If thats a selection pack you hang onto that thing

5ever

[terse coral]

ok

[amber totem]

You can use your crystalline aura too, its additive

[wintry mauve]

I used a couple to get lost wind but other than that save all of it

[amber totem]

Delain armen

[rose jewel]

k yeah outdated and kinda fearmongering on "losing materials" etc

[terse coral]

does it do much?

[wintry mauve]

PTSD fr that damn card never came to me

[amber totem]

Yeah crystalline has a bunch of buffs

[rose jewel]

the amount of things you lose is extremely negligible to the point that it saves you a lot of time and sanity instead

[amber totem]

mostly it will save you silver over time when you teleport

[terse coral]

ok good to know

[rose jewel]

use your powerpass without a second thought

[terse coral]

i can stick to that plan easily 😄

[amber totem]

delain armen is TEN Ignea tokens

TEN.

[rose jewel]

he was kinda on point on some but he justs says over and over again on "losing things"

fuk that

also the "server powerpass" is fake info indeed

its per REGION, not server

[terse coral]

doesnt affect me since you said changing server is starting over 😄

[ashen jackal]

Should I save the Stone of Births I get from the early quest until down the line when I have a better idea of what engravings I'll want?

[amber totem]

engravings dont matter much until quite a bit later

For now, just use your class engravings.

You can apply them on your character profile

[ashen jackal]

If I haven't obtained them yet, do I just need to wait?

[amber totem]

You probably would have some bound books already

[terse coral]

ive only popped 36 so i do have decent space ill just refrain from popping more

[amber totem]

Yeah in the image you posted you have a bunch

You can use those green class engravings chests. Use 20 of them on your class engraving. What class are you?

[amber totem]

Yep. Just store all the packs for now.

[terse coral]

shadowhunter atm but im switch to bard

[amber totem]

the game encourages alts so keep your shadowhunter

Play around with a few classes and see what you think is fun

If bard is the one for you go for it

[ashen jackal]

Im a destroyer, any recommendations between rage hammer vs gravity training?

[shut pasture]

Mmm yeah....clickbait gaslight video for clicks. Thats all.

[amber totem]

I dont have a destroyer so cant give advice there

[terse coral]

yeah dont plan on deleting it , ill need her for storage as is 😄

[shut pasture]

Once you get to level 30 you should be able to give both a good try to see which you might like using more.

But for more detailed info on it...

[rose jewel]

yep

[ashen jackal]

Eh, I'll just postpone and spend some time watching some videos to get a better clue

[lavish grove]

The Ultimate Destroyer Infoset

Below you can find a comprehensive list of useful information for the Destroyer class. This list is not exhaustive, but it should give you a good idea of what to expect from the class.

Destroyer Community Guide

This information was created by community members · Jan 30, 2023, 5:43 AM

[ashen jackal]

Oh, good to know, thanks, I'll give that a read

[terse coral]

is there a reason for so many bots? do people like max lvl a full roster of chars and sell the account, or something to do with gold

[ashen jackal]

The learning curve for this game feels outrageous, but I guess that might be normal for MMORPGs?

[amber totem]

its for the gold

If they re-introduce the captcha system they tested youll see far less again.

[terse coral]

ahh

[shut pasture]

The bots are making gold for RMT shit. Unfortunately the game being F2P and not having KR style account creation sort of lets them just always return.

[ashen jackal]

What is KR?

[terse coral]

damn

[amber totem]

Korea

[rigid plank]

Botters make bank from selling gold

[shut pasture]

South Korea

[amber totem]

They could just tie it to mobile number like in csgo

IDK what the big problem is

[ashen jackal]

Oh, I guess accounts are handled differently there

[amber totem]

The 0.00000001% of people that dont have mobile numbers arent worth putting over the entire playerbase

[terse coral]

almost 200k active players is wat sold me to try this game over buying New World , seems theres still a large chunk of real players though and the game is quite fun

[amber totem]

Yeah youll see way more people when you get to the end game stuff

where you are now will just be hh everywhere

[shut pasture]

KR ties your account to a mobile number and I believe another form of ID. Means botting is much less present there.

[rigid plank]

The thing that would be hard to deal with phone numbers is EU and SA laws that might conflict

[snow wadi]

different privacy laws in different regions

[amber totem]

Dont EU players for csgo still provide phone number for prime?

[river lynx]

Wanna bonk once for a billion damage, or bonk many times for somewhat above a billion damage?

[ashen jackal]

I feel like bonk once for a billion damage is more satisfying, but I have no confidence I won't miss the bonk and be rather sad

Selecting classes for me pretty much went like this "Big hammer, sounds like fun"

[river lynx]

The nice thing is that once you get to level 50, somewhere after that you'll get a new skill that taunts the boss, and keeps it faced towards you for a couple of seconds

So landing Perfect Swing is made easier

[amber totem]

Youll also learn patterns of said bosses and be able to reliably bonk like a badass

[ashen jackal]

I might just keep all the engravings and stuff and see how far I can go without, so once I start using I know the character better and have watched more videos

[river lynx]

Thing is, depending on class engraving, classes can play much differently

So it could be a good idea to start early

[shut pasture]

Yes, typically a build will be different between a classes two engravings

[ashen jackal]

Besides engravings and cards, are there any things I need to watch out for committing to early?

[amber totem]

dont open and spend pirate coins either

youll get a tonne of them in boxes

[shut pasture]

Not really, no. Also the only time you're really going to be committed to an engraving is probably once you hit T3 since you're going to be swapped out of T1 accessories into T2 accessories and then from T2 into T3 accessories (accessories have engravings on them)

[ashen jackal]

Wouldn't you need to worry about opening engraving chests as well?

[river lynx]

Yes; just don't open them until you decide on what you want

[ashen jackal]

I was under the impression that if you open those and don't get the right engravings you can kinda screw yourself over longterm

[shut pasture]

Yes and no. I mean just hold onto them until you know for sure, but also the early books aren't the biggest issue in getting.

Its the Legendary books that complicate it

[ashen jackal]

Ok, so I can probably just go ahead and use most of the green books? Just save the chests?

[amber totem]

You should get a large amount of roster bound green class engravings

[shut pasture]

You can save the chests, but if you're at least level 30 go into Trixion and give things a test.

[river lynx]

As long as you know for sure what you need. Don't go blowing those on something like Necromancy for example 😭

[amber totem]

enough to set up 3 characters with 1 engraving each

[ashen jackal]

Level 29 rn

Getting lost trying to do all the small quests in Luterra's Castle

[shut pasture]

Then soon you should be getting a quest that gives you access to Trixion

Its a main story one so you won't miss it

[amber totem]

Luterra castle was so overwhelming for me when I first got there. Its up to you whether you do the side quests or leave them.

[ashen jackal]

Got it, might just focus on grinding through some of that

[amber totem]

You can rush story, or take your time.

[ashen jackal]

I like completing stuff, but there is soooo much

[amber totem]

I did all of the side quests until T1. Then I just wanted to get t3.

[ashen jackal]

Think I just finished all of it though, minus some of the [Guide] quests I think I'll wait for

[river lynx]

@ashen jackal BTW and once you do get access to Trixion, you access a special room where you can test out different builds in stuff, as in being able to try out different stat combos, engravings, etc. for free

So it's a good place to go to for deciding on what class engraving to get

[ashen jackal]

Oooh, I saw Trixion referenced in the guide, but didn't really know enough to make sense

Think Ill wait for that then, thanks

[river lynx]

[amber totem]

Just keep doing what youre doing for now. You wouldve just done helms deep if you are at the castle.

[river lynx]

go GT

[amber totem]

Awesome set piece

[thorn cave]

is there a way to get out of a dungeon if the proposal vote keeps failing? song of escape isnt enabled

[amber totem]

alt f4

[thorn cave]

will relogging not put me back in the dungeon tho?

[amber totem]

never had to do it

try it out

I dont think it will

[thorn cave]

im pretty sure if you reconnect from a dc it puts you back in the dungeon

[amber totem]

Dont you have to select character again? Or does it skip main menu and just put you straight in?

[thorn cave]

yeah you do

[amber totem]

Pick diff character

[thorn cave]

LOL

[amber totem]

I got trapped in a night fox yoho with 14 mins to go as a support. They kept voting no as the one zerker was fighting yoho. When he died with about 1 min left it had 33% hp left.

[thorn cave]

LOL

[amber totem]

get out while you can

[river lynx]

NFYoho jail

[agile compass]

Mm yoho?

[thorn cave]

yoho is suffering

[amber totem]

1370 is such a fun place

idk what you all mean

[thorn cave]

i rushed to 1415 asap bc fk yoho

actual fun fight

[river lynx]

ONG

[agile compass]

Velganos was fun

[amber totem]

I am from Australia too, so 220 ping

Those tornados

are the bane of my existance

Oh I dodged it this time. Night fox : Nope

[river lynx]

I just press Z

[amber totem]

Literal anakin, padame meme

I dodged it, right? Right?

[shadow birch]

goodnight everyone! I will be back on in about 7 hours!

[amber totem]

[ashen jackal]

Im expecting to move in May and kinda worried my ping is going to skyrocket, don't know where yet, could be either side of the country O.O

[amber totem]

Honestly ping doesnt matter that much

There is a very healthy Aus/NZ player base on NA West servers

Everyone rocking 180-250 ping constant

[river lynx]

Ping Demons

They have adapted.

[ashen jackal]

Some of these NPCs need to learn to walk 5 feet -_-

[river lynx]

[inland jasper]

should i be selling or dismantling gear while leveling? i assume dismantle since selling is only like 200 silver

[river lynx]

You might as well do either

The point of doing either of those things at that stage of the game is mostly just to clear up inventory space, because the silver you get from it is pretty insignificant

[inland jasper]

will the materials be useful later?

[river lynx]

If you're talking about the dust you get from doing so, no

just sell the dust

[inland jasper]

gotcha

also all these chests, should i save them?

[river lynx]

Yes.

[inland jasper]

okay, i messed up and probably already opened the good ones but thats fine lol i have alot more in storage

the only ones i remember opening were the card chest

[river lynx]

You're all right for the most part, then

It's mainly the chests for stuff like battle items, engravings, honing materials, etc. you wanna make doubly sure you hold onto

[inland jasper]

gotcha, i heard my class is expensive so ill need all the resources i can save lol

[pallid flax]

do you use marvelous leapstones for ancient gear too?

[gray yarrow]

if i kt south vern do i get argos armor still? or is that only if i buy the SV power pass

chosen*

[shut pasture]

Knowledge Transfer does not give gear. The only one that does is the North Vern one.

[gray yarrow]

tyty

[gray yarrow]

yeah, up until akkan gear

[brisk bridge]

Someone help me with my math. It takes 81 lvl 7 gems to make a lvl 10 right?

[river lynx]

Yeah
3 sevens to make an eight
3^2 = 9
9^2 = 81

I was tripping balls.

[brisk bridge]

Wait no im trolling it takes 27

[river lynx]

Late night's got my brain fried

[still verge]

3^3

The math is 3^(aim-current) iirc

[drowsy haven]

Ok guys i need help

So lost ark i have 6 Characters, I can enter every single Character but once I enter my BARD character (happens to be my main) it crashes the game ALWAYS

[rose jewel]

you have to open a ticket and ask them for help

[drowsy haven]

I have tried to verify files but steams says its fine

[rose jewel]

we cant do shit, you cant do shit

the game is fucked until official support moves your char to prideholme

[drowsy haven]

ahhh so i guess i got no main acc for days

[rose jewel]

they should answer fast, its monday already

you can also ask for help on the forums

kinda the same, or they will tell you to open a ticket

so, just open a ticket to ask for help

we cant do anything here

sad but it is what it is

[drowsy haven]

Just asked here in case someone already knows an answer

[rose jewel]

that's the answer

only official support can help you in this case

[gaunt fable]

was there any merchant sells lvling gear?

[rose jewel]

early early into the game, there is one merchant selling a weapon, if that's what you're asking

which you shouldn't even need ever

you get a lot of stuff leveling up on the story

as drops and all that

all the gear you get from story is gonna get destroyed by the time you reach shushire/north vern and you get your 302 gear

[gaunt fable]

i know im just few ilvl below heart of spectrum and dunno how to get gear

[rose jewel]

hard mode story lucky drops, or just keep going, you will eventually get drops from somewhere

[median crow]

Morning question..!! 😅
Is there a point that I'll stop getting things in Chaos Dungeons? Like, I no longer have Aura BUT I do get some materials etc..

[rigid plank]

aura is your main source that allows mat drops nomally, you can still do it infinitely past that but mat gain is very minimal

[worthy shale]

how much does rest bonus give

[median crow]

ty

[radiant flame]

Approximately double

[last wolf]

is there a faster or more efficient way of linking skill set, build, and gems to a page with 1 click so its easier to switch between raid and chaos dungeon builds? or do we have to manually change skills, build, gems, cardset individually everytime

[radiant flame]

Mass preset

Although, I am also unsure why you are changing so many things for chaos dungeon. For most classes changing skills is enough given the content is so trivial

And at most that just requires you to press k and switching to your chaos dungeon skills

But yeah if you want to switch to preemptive/betrayal, you can use mass preset

[last wolf]

cos engravings would change too right

or gems cos diff skills

like for bard, u need true courage for chaso

[snow wadi]

I'd 110% never use gems for chaos dungeons
I don't think it's worth

You get CDR on 2nd and 3rd stage anyway

And with betrayal and chaos dungeons engravings the damage is more than enough

[radiant flame]

I mean, you don’t

Chaos dungeon is easy

I do change to betrayal for my bard

[snow wadi]

But mass presets allow you to even skip pressing k everytime u load into a chaos dungeon/guardian raid

and once you use it, you can also change engravings

[radiant flame]

So I do use mass preset

But for most other classes I literally just change skills

[last wolf]

im still at 1420 so having a bit of trouble

or needing to burn some pots

[radiant flame]

Pots?!

Hopefully not the instant hp pots

If you mean the heal over time ones that hardly matters

[last wolf]

i just phoenix plume

if the heal voer time doesnt heal in time

is that bad?

cos yeah i dont want to use the instant pots

[radiant flame]

No. You do take damage in chaos dungeon

It’s just that, you don’t need gems for chaos dungeon skills to do chaos dungeon …

🤷🏻‍♂️

[rose jewel]

are you using pots as a bard?

please tell me no

[radiant flame]

Tbh I use the heal over time ones sometimes purely because I don’t use them anywhere else

Especially red portal when I want to save for courage …

[rose jewel]

it hurts my soul to see a class with her own op heal using pots to heal

[radiant flame]

you still have a soul?

[rose jewel]

purple portal is another world on its own

but for normal 3 stages

[snow wadi]

her heal is useless withou dp and Id rather use true courage 3

pots are dirt cheap and evne I farmed a tons of em while questiing

[rose jewel]

lol true 3 is a waste

[snow wadi]

crying over pots in cd is a waste

[rose jewel]

true 1 is more than enough

the other bars are used for heal

if you need

if you need to use pots, it means the mobs are not even dying, you're getting smashed right and left and center

which means he is not using a chaos dungeon build properly

[radiant flame]

I was going to say, I think this is the more fundamental issue

[snow wadi]

there's ranged adds

[rose jewel]

speed may change a lot, less time killing mobs, less time getting hits

?

yeah like 10 of them

in total

you walk around killing trash mobs

idk

[radiant flame]

Bard just has so much aoe I feel like you can just mash keys in CD

[rose jewel]

have you used a bard in chaos dungeon

real question

[snow wadi]

man this channel has 2 many elitist boosting their self esteem by giving advices and smashing their opinion onto new ppl 😄

who tf argues if someone uses a pot in a chaos dungeon

[rose jewel]

this channel has one too many person not even asking why we're saying such things

i am asking if he has a chaos dungeon build for his bard

[amber totem]

youll remember this conversation when you run out of those pots and have to make more

[rose jewel]

he can increase his clear speed so much that pots arent gonna be even used

if he uses pots something may be wrong with his build

i wanted to help with his build

you come here and start saying those things

[amber totem]

its likely yes

at least just buy the potions that go on f1

[gentle hearth]

what are the sources of orange honing shards outside of unas/events/dailies? i know about kakul saydon, the south vern weekly and endless chaos dungeon

[rose jewel]

werent harmony tier 1 shards

does clown gives t1 ones? i think he only gives t3

[gentle hearth]

uh whatever the orange ones are called

tier3

[rose jewel]

honor

[gentle hearth]

ye those

[radiant flame]

Ship and guild merchants

[gentle hearth]

ghost ship?

or those roaming merchant ships?

[radiant flame]

Not the roaming ones. Just the ones that are always docked

[gentle hearth]

oh cool

ill go budget my pirate coins and see if i have any left over for honing

[radiant flame]

[median crow]

Guardian Raid - Raid Level 2 I see same rewards for all 4 levels... Should I just go for the level 1 which is probably the easiest?

[elfin surge]

Reading the above and I’m worried I’m not using the right build on my bard 👀

I just use whatever it was that was set up last year when I tried the game 😄

[amber totem]

you should have your support build that you use for guardians, and a seperate build for chaos dungeons

[elfin surge]

Soloing guardians on bard sucks

That’s what I learned about them

[amber totem]

I wouldnt bother with guardians until 1302 or 1370 even.

[elfin surge]

I’ve not yet reached the point where there are any people around

[amber totem]

If youre not at tier 3 yet, you can ask in area chat to see if someone nice can help you first clear your guardians

[elfin surge]

My big worry though is that by blasting my way to 1302 I’ll still just not be good at piloting the game

[amber totem]

beyond first clear its not worth doing

Itll be fine. Just blast there, youll have PLENTY of time to get good at the game.

Check this btw : https://maxroll.gg/lost-ark/category/build-guides#classes%3D[mage]%26classes%3D[bard]

good quick reference guide for the two builds.

[elfin surge]

Ty

[radiant flame]

You don’t really learn much about the game from pre t3 content, apart from a bit about how the skills work (which is useful)

Also please have a look at the community guides

Which are far more useful and are updated for endgame content

/bard

Er, not sure why that didn’t work

[lavish grove]

[elfin surge]

Well I’ve just realised that there is a second awakening skill

Which I should probably unlock 😄

[lucid osprey]

The higher the more u get
But if i were to choose between 10 min to 3 min for example I would do the 3 min one xd

[brazen quarry]

upto which level should i hone t2 gear?

[rose jewel]

the only bad thing about starting the game around these days is that you have to do the 2nd awakening chain quest manually

[silver rain]

+15

[rose jewel]

see you in 7hrs ;D

[elfin surge]

Do I need to

[brazen quarry]

then move on to t3?

[rose jewel]

its quite good for a lot of chars

[median crow]

ty!

[rose jewel]

its roster wide as well

you just gotta do it once

[elfin surge]

Ahh

[turbid bluff]

How powerful is outgoing damage? Like I'm looking at engravings (specifically Mass Increase and Raid Captain), and wondering if atk power or outgoing damage has more value.

[rose jewel]

your alts just have to go to trixion and they get it asap

raid = multiplicative, mass = additive

look at this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-hG0wVlNyU

[radiant flame]

Also please look at the community guides before deciding on engravings on your own

Most builds have pretty much set engravings which should not be deviated from

[turbid bluff]

I have, I just want to know the reasoning why people always picked Raid over Mass

But it has been answered

[turbid bluff]

Ty for this!

[silver rain]

about the same 18% but mass has negative on atk spd while raid in certain scenario is so bad *cough * Kunge *cough *

[rose jewel]

😭

[tired harbor]

how do i disable xp gain info in my chat window?
which one of the options is responsible for spamming
i tried disabling combat, progression, obtained, and it was still spamming xp

[rose jewel]

uncheck everything on the right but combat

and maybe emotes

they are just useless

[tired harbor]

omg it worked tysm

[rose jewel]

and they will cause lag, believe it or not

[sleek goblet]

is argos progess reset on wednesday?

my party disbanded after p1 and now im stuck in p2

[silver rain]

yea with weekly reset. there should be g2-3 lobbies tho

[shut river]

sad noise of player who uses emotes in raid

[sleek goblet]

there werent all weekend but i'll check again thanks

[silver rain]

you can also create one yourself the ping spike and dc-ing issues are here so the g2/g3 parties shouldnt take long to fill

[rain charm]

do i use the chaos dungeon aura regeneration items on my main to get more brel red stones to sell for gold or do i use them on my bard to get more bound leaps to hone her up faster

[sick current]

guys how can I craft basic oreha relics with normal oreha relic components?(the ones you farm manually)

[buoyant herald]

you need to do a reserch in the lab to unlock the crafting

[buoyant herald]

up to you really most important thing from chaos esp on alts is not even the leapstones but the shards

you gonna get more in shards from the 2 chaos than you would get in gold from running the 1490 or even the 1520 chaos

but you would also be getting way more shards on the main

[rain charm]

then yea i'll just do it on bard, she's in need of shards more than my main atm

[buoyant herald]

[rain charm]

main is already 1525 anyway so ill just farm dailies and get her honed up to 1540 slowly

[buoyant herald]

yea

[sick current]

is it worth farming mokoko seeds?

[radiant flame]

Worth is subjective

There’s nothing super important tied to mokokos

Some masterpieces is probably the most critical

[sick current]

ok thx

[radiant flame]

But masterpieces don’t reward anything huge either

(Though the gold is pretty nice)

On the other hand, if you’re doing tome, there is probably no reason to not get the mokoko seeds in the zones you’ll be doing anyway

[mild drift]

hi everyone, I am pretty new and just got to 340, but when trying to run abyssal dungeons (or anything else as a matter of fact) I never find enough people through matchmaking or party finder, is the server dead or whats going on?

[spring python]

I think most people are already past that point or bought a pass

So it would be a little harder to find people on those dungeons

I’m sure you can find some purple here tho

[shy chasm]

You could find ppl doing those for card runs and join that

[mild drift]

purple?

[spring python]

People

[mild drift]

ah I see, okay thanks guys

anyone up to run them with me? haha

[spring python]

Currently at work but not sure if a higher IL are allowed to help

[ancient lark]

t1 and t2 contents are dead

[drowsy haven]

pretty much, you need either a friend or find a guild if you wanna start to play from scratch, just the harsh reality

[mild drift]

but you always need 4 people in total for things like abyssal dungeons, right?

[lucid osprey]

yea but at the speed you can hone currently its not really needed

[mild drift]

okay, I will try to find a guild I guess (i am used to d3, this is quite weird to me lmao)

[lucid osprey]

still sadge to see

[tall river]

My friend got an error that says this when trying to load the game:

The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000005), Click OK to close the application.

Does anyone know a fix for this? Using fixes from google haven't been working. (also yes, tried reinstalling, tried validating files etc)

[lucid osprey]

restart pc
maybe something in the background is still open and breaks lost ark

[dreamy summit]

@mild drift hey i just got to 340 too and trying to run abyss dungeon first time

[tall river]

we've done that multiple times

[lucid osprey]

hmm

[tall river]

it says its a hardware error but like after checking all his drivers and his pc for updates nothing worked

does lost ark have anything against windows 11?

[lucid osprey]

not that i heard anything about

[visual mauve]

hi how do u dodge caliligos lightning tail whip

[drowsy haven]

yeah thats why i included Guild, you only need more than 1 friend for the Abyss, that requires 4 minimum or 8 depending on what Abyss u do, everything else can be carried with only 1 guy

[lucid osprey]

maybe something got corrupted when installing windows 11 thus breaking lost ark

[tall river]

goddamnit

alr thankyou for the help 🙏

[drowsy haven]

yeah idk why but I am also having problems with the game today, So they fixed my character but if i enter Rohendel my character is frozen and kicks me out the game xD

Indie company

[lucid osprey]

someone on reddit said that they followed a windows guide on checking missing or corrupted files

that helped them

idk if you already tried that

[dreamy summit]

Anyone know a guild that accepts new player? I just got to 440 and trying to do abyss dungeons

[mild drift]

okay thanks for the clarification, I will try to find a friend and a guild haha

[drowsy haven]

Finding guild should be easy, but will they help idk that depends on the people in that guild 😄

[lucid osprey]

3 1490 on t1 abyss dungeon lezz go

[mild drift]

I figured, people seem not to be so helpful so far, I am really spoiled by the diablo community lol

[drowsy haven]

high level people should 1 tap everything super quick so they dont waste time

[lucid osprey]

some are helpful , some are sadly not

[drowsy haven]

Yeah some people are just trying to hurry up their dungeons to play on even more characters/reagions for more cash

or they are just unfriendly

[mild drift]

makes sense, no time to waste I guess

[lucid osprey]

i could help you if you need any guardians or smth just ping me

u can speed through t1 and t2 kinda since u get +2 upgrades and lowered cost

[drowsy haven]

But creating a room and waiting is definately not the best way to do it. Having a guild is definitely the best way to get people to help

I havent searched but I assume there are helping guilds somewhere out there

[mild drift]

tbh I dont even know what to do, just following a guide rn which says to do both abyssal dungeons, did the first but cant find a group for the the necromancer one; appreciate the offer tho

[lucid osprey]

ah just do chaos and guardians

or just towers

for mats that kinda should be enough for t1 atleast

[drowsy haven]

I dont think those abyss are needed

[lucid osprey]

theres an event island rn did you already do it?

[drowsy haven]

tbh i havent done the story since the start, if doing abyss is a story mission then you might need help

[drowsy haven]

isnt that for lvl 50 only?

[lucid osprey]

arent u lvl 50?

[drowsy haven]

if hes T1 then i assume no? XD

[mild drift]

I dont think it is, the guide just said to do that in order to get the gear set and then transfer the old gear to it

I am 50, yea

[lucid osprey]

yea just do chaos and gurdians

get event materials and go to the event island

[mild drift]

50 with IL 380, upgrading it currently

[lucid osprey]

to buy honing meterials

[drowsy haven]

guides are outdated for the game now so some things need to be skipped

[lucid osprey]

with those u can skip t1 pretty fast

[somber jewel]

Post reset (Wednesday) you’ll probably get a group for necro fyi

[mild drift]

till what IL should I hone?

[lucid osprey]

u need +15 on all

[mild drift]

thanks for the heads up

[somber jewel]

Tier 2 is 960

[lucid osprey]

to get to t2

[mild drift]

alright, thanks. I will do that

[lucid osprey]

then you convert ur gear back to +2 i think

and then hone to +15

[somber jewel]

You gotta get to yorn as well

[radiant flame]

600

[silver marten]

is it better to do kungelanium or keep farming deskaluda as a 1460? is the loot better?

[somber jewel]

Thanks for the clarification!

[lucid osprey]

kungelanium is pretty fast

[buoyant herald]

deska is way better ppl are just lazy bums

[lucid osprey]

xd

[mild drift]

okay, quick other question: should I use crystallized guardian stone pouches for the fragments or is that a waste?

[lucid osprey]

do you mean the blue things?

[mild drift]

yea

[somber jewel]

are they bound?

[lucid osprey]

probably

i would use them to push ilvl faster imo

[mild drift]

they are bound and I have 3 options: 1k fragments, 1k stones, or 200 crystallized guardian stones

[lucid osprey]

not really a waste

[somber jewel]

Yeah just choose one and use it

Always try to get rid of bound mats

[lucid osprey]

just choose the one u need and
make sure not to get too much

[mild drift]

okay, then I will use them, I thought maybe the ones I get less of are harder to get and needed later so I saved them up till now

[lucid osprey]

u could buy them since they are pretty cheap rn i think

[mild drift]

appreciate the help guys

[lucid osprey]

EUC rn

[mild drift]

oh ic, I just opened one of the bags for now, it gave 10k so I am fine for the time being

[lucid osprey]

lets hope u dont have too much

cuz if you go t2 u wont need them anymore xd

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

u can use this website

to calculate ur cost

[mild drift]

ah thats nice, thanks mate

and I doubt its too much, since I am only at +8 and I need like 200-300 per level

[drowsy haven]

Also i think u can do the challenges with people, and maybe save those rewards for T3

[lucid osprey]

whops wrong ur at +8

[mild drift]

so still 11k right? thats good

but have to farm the red ones now anyway lmao

[lucid osprey]

u could go to the event island

and buy some chests that gives those materials

or i could just buy some mats and send it to you ;d

[mild drift]

wellll sure hahaha, if you want

[lucid osprey]

what region are you in

EU West or Central

[mild drift]

Eu central

[lucid osprey]

username?

[mild drift]

Ouroborossssss

[lucid osprey]

cant find it

did you type it wrong?

[drowsy haven]

lol i cant enter rohendel with any character

[mild drift]

is it the one shown above your char?

[lucid osprey]

just press P

[drowsy haven]

it crashes my game and gets my character stuck LOOOOOOL

[lucid osprey]

and show me a screenshot of it if possible

but yea it should be shows above your char

[mild drift]

pmed you with the screenshot

[drowsy haven]

@lucid osprey I assume ure in game, can u check if u can enter Rohendel Lake Shiverwave?

[lucid osprey]

will do

[drowsy haven]

but dont do it on ure main just in case

[wise galleon]

hey guys, have a couple of questions.

1. is there a bot or a web to check when little luck island merchant appears?
2. whats the deal with bots going on islands, doing a dig and songing out?

[lucid osprey]

works for me

[drowsy haven]

then something happened with my acc I cant enter rohendel at all XD

[lucid osprey]

1. Yes theres a website but i dont know the name rn
2. probably lifeskilling or smth

[silver rain]

white wave island quest requires you to dig something from little luck

[elfin surge]

una's are only dropping t2 mats still

[wise galleon]

i see

[elfin surge]

despite being at t3 now

am I missing something?

[silver rain]

what ilvl are you? if you just reached 1302 try relog

[elfin surge]

I hit t3 yesterday

and thought it would change with daily reset

[trail hawk]

dont you have to finish punika for that to change? not just go there

[drowsy haven]

Im pretty sure the spawn timers is like every 30 minutes, not 100% on that fact tho

[elfin surge]

I finished punika

[silver rain]

you need to finish punika to chage it anyway since punika is required for punika chaos dungeon hence doing punika chaos for 1302 gear

[elfin surge]

yesterday as well

yeah punika was done yesterday

[silver rain]

whats your ilvl rn?

[last wolf]

is blue quality crit spec necklance with hit master ambush master worthless?

[silver rain]

once amp non directional atk and another amp back attack

[viscid osprey]

how do I pay a bus, when someone says "gem in ah" - I assume I need to buy an overpriced gem from him, but how do I find his gem?

[elfin surge]

1306

[silver rain]

1.little luck merchant spawns every 2 hours and only stays for 10mins the time spawning i have no idea prolly x.30 and there was a channel where people report island/ship merchants spawning but i think the report kinda dies down cuz most people already got what they need

[elfin surge]

welp relog fixed it

gme just being silly?

[silver rain]

advanced search

[silver rain]

yea that was what i told you to do lol it actually should change as soon as you've reach 1302 and a re log would've change it

[drowsy haven]

How much RAM does Lost ark consume whilst playing?

[elfin surge]

yeah just weird that I hit it yesterday

and logged in and it didnt update

I did a chaos dungeon, relogged fixed

but who cares, it works

[viscid osprey]

where can I enter the sellers name in advanced auction house search? I only find stuff like which skill is effected by the gem

[silver rain]

the bus seller will list a gems you search for it (advanced search for class,skill) then check with the price the bus seller told you

[viscid osprey]

ok

[wise galleon]

little luck merchant is up if anyone else needs

[maiden locust]

Anyone have merchant "Tuleu" in their stronghold I can visit to buy wealth runes? :(
NA West btw

[buoyant herald]

try #na-west-region-chat and area chat in stronghold

not many ppl visit here

[brisk granite]

Where do u go to report someone to a mod? couldn't find a submit ticket for reporting.

[buoyant herald]

#old-support-tickets

[brisk granite]

Thanks, must have glanced over it!

[fickle canopy]

Hey

[buoyant herald]

hey

[fickle canopy]

I reached combat lv 50

So many things popped up

What should i do now

My item lv is 232

[buoyant herald]

keep questing

till you finish north vern

[fickle canopy]

Alright

[silver moat]

do i really just stand on little luck island for 2 hours staring at my screen hoping i catch Erin spawn?

i cant find a spawn timer in game or online

[viscid osprey]

is buying valtan's chest an on alt worth it? (e.g. to sell content in ah)

[silver rain]

mats from chest is bound

[viscid osprey]

but items are not?

[silver rain]

yes but it should be at x.30 you can keep checking around that minute mark

[silver moat]

but its every 2 hours 10 mins so the time moves ahead by 10 mins each time right?

or did they change it to a static time?

[bronze pewter]

did zerkers get a free reroll gem for the skill theyremoved?

[stray goblet]

prolly not

[silver rain]

yea cuz timer counts after despawning

[silver moat]

yeah so the devs literally expect players to star at their screen for 2 hours lol

great design

very fun

[silver rain]

just check every 30 minutes you will catch it eventually

[heady zealot]

when doing infinite chaos dungeons, should I do the easiest or the hardest in my tier?

[silver moat]

im not sailing out here every 30 mins lol

that sounds like a bigger pain

[silver rain]

bifrost or just leave a char there

[silver moat]

ill just waste 2 hours and be done with it

either way id have to interrupt myself constantly and there is a very good chance id never hit it

hopefull i can get it and ill post when i do in case anyone else on NA west needs it

[silk shard]

I'd recommend not doing infinite there is hardly any reward

[heady zealot]

oh damn, i thought u could still make some gold off there lol

are there any good money makers out there updated?

[viscid osprey]

is 4x3 engraving good enough for all content? 5x3 seem significantly harder to achieve

[silk shard]

Well its basically, legion raids+chaos dungeons+ guardian raid and do this on multiple characters for gold

[silk shard]

For content we currently have it kindoff is but you will be gatekept in latest content

[viscid osprey]

for content we will get from korea: will we get something better than relic accessories or am I building basically my endgame item set already?

[silk shard]

We will get ancient

but even in KR majority still runs relic just fine

[silver moat]

THEY ARE HERE

GOT THE SOUL

THANK GOD

[viscid osprey]

why do they stay on relic? is ancient not simply dropped from chaos dungeons or something like that?

[silk shard]

well yeah but unless it drops the engravings you need

Its not worth using

the gear itself (helm ---- weapon)

people will upgrade yes

Ancient gear comes from hard more Brelshaza iirc and goes to +25 honing

[viscid osprey]

I think I might just go for ancient without fully optimizing relic to save gold

[silk shard]

well you need atleast 1540 ilvl to get into brel hard

[radiant flame]

I don't think you understand how rare and expensive good ancient accessories will be

before Akkan released, ancient accessories in KR were incredibly rare at high quality, given the only thing that drops them (at high quality) is brel hard

[viscid spindle]

LF judgement and wealth rune in stronghold shop

[silver rain]

if you're not loaded you'll be sitting with poorly optimized relic accs until akkan

[short lantern]

I asked this yesterday but figured I'd ask again to get different replies/see what folks say:

If I want to casually play the game, and not get burnt out on 10 alts, is that possible? Be it a slower process?

[radiant flame]

as someone else said, most people in KR still gear with relic

[gleaming moth]

What are useful things to get from the cash shop? I have a full time job so I got money to spend to hopefully make up for the fact I lose out on spending more time playing

[radiant flame]

ancient and relic drop with the same combat stat distribution (combat = crit/spec/swift)

[amber glade]

hi all, I have main 1513 iL and I just made my first alt. What is the best way to get/farm gems for alt?

[radiant flame]

the only "boost" is for the base str/dex/int/vit stat

but it's insiginficant

you will *lose" dps if you change to low q ancient from high q relic

[radiant flame]

buy them, get them from chaos dungeon

you really should have more alts

idk how youve got to 1513 without a single alt

[tranquil ginkgo]

[radiant flame]

sure, but then...it;s easy to get gems lol

[amber glade]

cause I don't want more than 1 character. but I had to make reaper. still not sure if I will stick with it

[buoyant herald]

#navigation get your region role and ask in region chat if you are on euc there is #events-merchant-boss

[tranquil ginkgo]

Just buy level 5s if you're poor and 7s if you're rich

[amber glade]

I played since release, diodn't spend any $ or bought any mats from market. I just did all dailes/weekles and everything an honne myself to 1513

I have half a mil gold but kinda wanna save it for my main 🙂

[radiant flame]

yep, without spending any $

i believe that

[amber glade]

what? you think I', lying 🙂

[radiant flame]

i mean, yes

[viscid spindle]

Thanks

[amber glade]

dude, I only bought 2 battle pases cause of skins and thats it

[radiant flame]

so you've already lied about spending $

[amber glade]

so I didnt use gold for mats or use $ for crystals at all

[tranquil ginkgo]

You can also just go to your stronghold and ask in area chat

People post them there quite often

[radiant flame]

anyway, already answered your question

[tranquil ginkgo]

At least on NAE

[amber glade]

thanks but relax bro I didnt come here to lie 🙂 I did bought both passes cause of skins I forgot that. didnt spend any $ for progress

[radiant flame]

just FYI, with one character, every week at legion raid level you can earn max 10-15k raw gold

[amber glade]

have half a mil gold, 34k unas tokens and 3k elemental pots to sell so thats around mil gold

yes ok and?

[silver moat]

the

[radiant flame]

do the maths. we only got legion raids what, 6 months ago

and then it was only 1

[silver moat]

the AH says i can cancel after 3 hours and get deposit back but when i click cancel it says i will lose deposit

[radiant flame]

even if you did 3 legion raids every week from week 1, you can have only got 500k raw gold

[amber glade]

bor I am playing this game since release. I never have full energy, I always farm flowers and sell pots

[buoyant herald]

yea you dont get your depist back if you cancel its wrong

[silver moat]

wtf i trusted the game and was screwed again

[radiant flame]

this is ebfore spending gold on honing

[amber glade]

maybe I got some items which I sold? maybe there was event where I got ~100k gold

just relax bro I didnt swipe

[radiant flame]

ok

[amber glade]

thanks

[viscid spindle]

area chat pretty dead on my server

[silver moat]

they need to fix that. thats messed up to trick people like that

[glacial python]

hey

where can I spend the silver

[radiant flame]

By switching to EUC

And spending silver there

[glacial python]

Im new player

[radiant flame]

Exactly

Restart on EUC

[glacial python]

1m silver

[radiant flame]

Silver is used for honing, gem rerolling, bracelet rerolling

If you are new, you won’t be doing any of those things

For a while

[silver moat]

save your silver

[radiant flame]

I suggest you should switch to EUC

And spend your silver there

[silver moat]

youll spend a mil in no time flat when you get to end game

[radiant flame]

EUW is a dead region

[silver moat]

ive been playing a couple weeks now and am reaching a point where silver is starting to matter

[austere valve]

Worst is the phoens bad design

[glacial python]

where shall I pass

[radiant flame]

?

[silver moat]

elwind save your silver bud. youll regret wasting it later

[radiant flame]

But most importantly just restart on EUC

[glacial python]

okey

thanks

which server should I play on

[buoyant herald]

on euc doesnt matter too mcuh
tho biggest ones are kadan zinnervale evergrace can go on one of those

[spring python]

Anyone here knows if it’s still possible to play on the Korean servers? Heard the pvns etc.. are not working anymore and you get insta banned

[silver rain]

vpn still works they rarely ban people cuz of vpn. they mostly do re verification

[radiant flame]

Iirc it’s completely possible. There is a difficulty in getting an account but if you have one 🤷🏻‍♂️

But, unless you understand Korean, I don’t think your game experience will be great

[silver rain]

unless you openly speak english and got reported by the koreans

[radiant flame]

^

[spring python]

You play in the Korean servers?

[tranquil ginkgo]

Yeah gl getting an account

[silver rain]

i know people playing on KR

[tranquil ginkgo]

I tried but couldn't find an acc

[spring python]

I’m sure there are ways to get one

[radiant flame]

Why do you want to play on KR

[silver rain]

unless you're buying acc or know someone in kr you wont be able to get them lol need KR id to make accounts

[radiant flame]

It’s also not like other MMOs where there is a large English speaking community who you can play with

[spring python]

I mean get things first, more classes, more people play there etc..

[radiant flame]

But, unless you know the KR language, nobody there will play with you

[spring python]

You never know

[silver rain]

speaking Eng on kr is like asking for a ban

[radiant flame]

^

[silver rain]

unless you have your own community

[radiant flame]

Also, good luck catching up in KR

[spring python]

I’m sure there are English speakers

[radiant flame]

With gold nerf on Valtan, vykas

[radiant flame]

Not ig

Watch any of the English speaking korean streamers

They will speak in English but all the chat in game is still in KR

Maybe you should just consider moving to EUC from EUW

[spring python]

Because they play with Koreans

[radiant flame]

Rather than try and start in KR

[radiant flame]

Right, who make up 99.9% of the KR server playerbase

Why do you think your experience will be different

[trim cedar]

Hey, is it possible to buy a Vern power pass and skip levelling 1-50 on a NOT new acccount? I have 7 characters already

[spring python]

I mean not like I need 99.9% of the sever to play with me

[trim cedar]

I want to know if I can skip 1-50 leveling

[radiant flame]

You can. Just knowledge transfer

[trim cedar]

wow, ty

[radiant flame]

Anyway. You can tag up with KR in #navigation and ask in the KR channel

Good luck

I personally think you are wasting your time

I played PSO2 JP and that was only possible because - there was an actually sizeable English community there, and the raids requires no in game communication

Neither of those things are true in lost ark KR

[spring python]

You never know I might make some kr friends

[radiant flame]

Go for it

[last wolf]

cursed doll or adrenaline for dps class?

[radiant flame]

Depends on the class 🤦‍♂️

Some use both

[buoyant herald]

mostly both yea

[radiant flame]

A lot of DPS classes end up using adrenaline at level 1/2 at 5x3+1/2

[last wolf]

do we need 5x3+1 even on alts?

[buoyant herald]

XD yeah you must have it

[radiant flame]

Wym 🤦‍♂️

Alts are still a character

They do the same content

[last wolf]

if we park at like

valtan hard

[buoyant herald]

most ppl will never have 5x3 + 1 with relic accs

[radiant flame]

Smh do you think you even need 5x3 for Valtan hard

[buoyant herald]

9 7 stone is not feasible if you wanna force it

unless you swipe

[radiant flame]

also why are you parking at Valtan hard 🤦‍♂️

[last wolf]

not enough resources atm

or time

[spring python]

Relax a little damn

[radiant flame]

Then why worry about 5x3+1

[last wolf]

to get accepted into parties

[radiant flame]

Make your own party, hone more, many options

[tame helm]

if you are parking at 1445 its probably best you build alts to 4x3 or 4x3+1

[radiant flame]

5x3+1 isn’t the solution, I can promise you

[tame helm]

if you have any +12 book is usually easier to get to 4x3+1

[last wolf]

or r is there a better parking ilevel?

for like a daily play time of 1-2 hours

[radiant flame]

You think people looking at people queuing for Valtan look at the engravings for someone at 1445?!

[buoyant herald]

1460 or 75

[tranquil ginkgo]

Yes

[tame helm]

RFP this is a help channel not a flame channel

[radiant flame]

you’ll probably get insta rejected from homework parties for someone at higher ilvl

How am I flaming?

[tranquil ginkgo]

People look at characters for argos

[spring python]

Brother a little heated

[tranquil ginkgo]

Building your character is important unless you wanna take a bus

[radiant flame]

I have been gatekept with 5x3 at all content

It’s more that there’s just no one solution

[last wolf]

im not trying to q with people much higher ilevel than me. so im thinking maybe its my engravings for 5x3 and roster level they r loking for

[tranquil ginkgo]

Then why are you acting like people don't check gear everywhere

[last wolf]

but roster level increase isnt feasible wihtin a short time with limited playtime

[radiant flame]

? They do. I just think at ilvl you will get rejected automatically most of the time

Simply because you are at ilvl

They won’t even bother looking at engravings

[tame helm]

if you are playing on limited time 1445 is mostly fine for alts assuming your main is 1460 or 1475

[last wolf]

yeah main is 1475

[radiant flame]

The main “problem” with 1445 is that you have to (if you want the gold) do vykas normal

Which is a horrific experience most of the time

1460 is just one extra hone and you can do vykas hm which - even if difficult to pug at ilvl - you’ll find more Guildies willing to help

In my static pretty much no one has vykas nm characters so hard for people to help

But I’ve had people from static help with their mains carry my on ilvl characters at vykas hm

Because there is no net gold loss for them to do so

[copper summit]

omnius star from anqiush isle is just reward on the end of the dungeon or you can drop from monsters ?

[buoyant herald]

drops from the boss yeah

[radiant flame]

Unfortunately, the reality is that if you have limited time - pushing alts as high as possible will be the best way to reduced play time - as you will get into faster parties doing raid content

[glossy lintel]

anyone know how to make npc sit or sleep in stronghold?

i have maxed rapport but i cant

[scarlet oxide]

Hi, how does Rage rune work? do u have to hit it on a mob to proc the chance?

[radiant flame]

Nope, on skill use

You can proc without hitting

[scarlet oxide]

so the more u press a skill the more chances to proc? does it work with on/off activation skills like elgian's touch for example? since the skill is continuously activated.

[radiant flame]

I have a strong suspicion activation does not count as skill “use”

You have to have finished using the skill

Easy enough for you to check in trixion 🤷🏻‍♂️

[scarlet oxide]

Yeah thats a good idea, thanks man. 🙂

[silver rain]

put them in a chair/bed

not all NPCs can be placed on the furniture tho

[quaint terrace]

is there a class that can use this?

[shy yarrow]

not one that i know of

[blazing badger]

almost anyone using spirit absorption is el cheapo

all I can think of is certain shock scrapper builds which trade one spec acc for crit, that's about it

[quaint terrace]

thanks

[quick ice]

does fortitude or strong will engraving better for gvg?

[chilly crystal]

Hello friends, looking for some advice as to what I should do for account progression:
I've just got my scrapper to 1490 and was looking forward to doing brel on it but I haven't had the best of luck getting into parties. I have done the fight on my main so I know mechanics and everything. I'm just unsure as to what I should do, should I just ignore brel and continue honing my current gear or try focusing on getting 5x3 instead? I do have some friends I can play with but I don't have a ton of time to play too. sorry for all the text

[radiant flame]

Should focus on 5x3 imo. Can also learn prokel and get into parties that way

Otherwise, find guilds or statics to help progression

I wouldn’t personally hone non brel gear because it’s just so inefficient

[chilly crystal]

Thank you! I am pretty confident in prokel though I keep getting denied/no one wants to join my party. How do people usually go about looking for statics?

[radiant flame]

There are channels here

But yeah, I suspect you’re getting rejected because you’re not 5x3

[tired moon]

Hi everyone! I come with a question I don’t expect a perfect answer or anything just opinions. I got a striker, sorcerer, bard, gunlancer and I am looking for a final alt (5th spot y saved for artist). I just want a super chill yet fun alt to maintain at 1415 for valtan but wish for it to be able to get group easy. I don’t wanna repeat classes and I didn’t like paladin, zerker, glaivier. What classes do you think can be a nice 6th alt?? I kind of prefer ranged classes but just any opinion will help me guide a little bit

[shy chasm]

Gs, deadeye

[strong kayak]

sorc 🙂

cute && strong

[tired moon]

I have one already and love her as I love casters and those animations

[strong kayak]

i would try out gunslinger 😄

so so so fun. nothing quite like her kit.

the team responsible for her really do love her cannot go wrong

[glossy lintel]

how to enable stronghold npc on selfie mode?

[tired moon]

But isn’t she expensive to build? I have read something about her being expensive and many animation locks?

[strong kayak]

all the fun ones are

but theyre worth it ❤️

[uncut summit]

Was watching some LoA class build videos and i always read stuff with like 4x3 or 5x3 and stuff but what does that even mean? Lol

[astral furnace]

easy

3 engraves X 3 activation
4 engraves X 3 activation
5 engraves X 3 activation
etc...

3x3
4x3
5x3

NOW

3x3 + 1 would be 3 engraves X level 3 PLUS one engrave at level one

see?

[tranquil ginkgo]

You can find some pretty good videos explaining engravings, if you're not 1370+ ilvl though you shouldn't really worry too much about them

[astral furnace]

well maybe start the planning at the beginning of T3 or so

[strong kayak]

u will become so acquainted with it, that your eyeballs will bleed

so do not fret and enjoy for now

[uncut summit]

Ohhh i see

[strong kayak]

❤️

[uncut summit]

Theres so much stuff like its insanely confusing

[strong kayak]

have fun (:

mind the gap

[astral furnace]

DO refrain from using up books to activate engravings until you Fully understand what you want to build as they CAN become expensive 😛

[tranquil ginkgo]

All you need early game is purple engravings for the class engraving you want, that will carry you through the story

Or at least level 1 of itn

I don't remember when you get the books

[astral furnace]

hmmmmmm
one last trick early game to know...
activate your class engrave as good as you can (up to and including purple) and put it in BOTH places on the character sheet... THEY STACK and will in most cases fully activate your class engrave.

very non obvious trick

[west forge]

Does anyone know how to swap the attack and walk button if its locked and the box that every video tells me about isnt there to tick?

[minor crown]

you mean left click and right click?

[west forge]

Yup
