yeah dont bother with it 
I used to play league, so im used to flaming shitholes
well its usually people with moderate competence flaming people who dont exactly belong into the same context due to purposely bad search algorithms.
If only they didnt pay for that neglection, too
hi can we switch left and right click because its lock in the settings
how does the 1445 express work? can i use it on my 1445 bard? or does it have to be strictly under 1445, like 1440
what does this give you at the end of its reward?
Hi, idk if its something I can ask, but if I ever want to quit the game and sell my gold, what would be the best way to do so?
You can not ask that here
<1445
anyone in na east could help me yohoo ?
i was able to do 1 oreha weap + 3 oreha armor, havent done argos yet
When artists releases are they going to be gate kept even worse?
artist never gonna be gatekept
Since you only have 2 slots for support

huh ?
And people would rather get geared supports
nah
ppl would rather get supports
doesnt matter what supports
there is a dire lack of them
Yeah but if they have the choice
well yeah first few weekks
go into set coversion and you can see with alt or ctrl
untill artists get their relic sets they ofc wont be picked over bards or palas but most lobbies would rather have a support than wait 10 min for a supp with relic set 
as for engravings most artists running legion raids first few weeks gonna have at least 3x3/4x3 no doubt so no issues there 
gear barely matters, u just want them to be on ilvl and that's it
well
if i could pick i'd pick a supp with yearning set over one wiht no yearning 
its pretty huge
for my reaper i actually wouldnt even take a supp with no yearning cuz i miss 10% ms for my rc
but in general supp > no supp yeah
for min-maxing chaos dungeons, do u usually replace grudge engraving with pre-emptive strike?
i even have +12 preemptive and a preemptive +3 acc on each of my chars 😄
also change relic set into betrayal
have a preset setup so you dont have to do it by hand
that would be painful doing it all by hand lol
😄 yeah
most i ever do is press k and move my mouse lol
dont have the full relic set to do the set gear change anyway
if you have full presets you dont have to do anything 😄
true, im just so used to the k button still - especially grinding these pvp island
should have preset for that too
with skils and engravings
alt e for mass preset
new merchant in your stronghold
When is artist likely to come out?
march 15th most likely
not official but yeah thats looking like the date
Do you use contender or grudge?
grudge doesnt do anything in chaos dungeon apart from red portal
just finished building my new PC and installed LA, theres a video settings that makes everything bright, is it Bloom Effect or Flare Effect?
So contender would be a better choice?
got it
probably bloom but just test everything lol
guys with two engravings lv 3 (12 points) how many points should be the stone?
Does anyone have the link to "best bang for your gold" spreadsheet? Or know where it might be posted in this discord
#info-dump scroll up quite a bit
bang for the buck buying what
dps increase to your char
I remember seeing stuff like, armor taps, wep taps, gems, etc
engravings > gems > armor/weapon taps > tripods > weapon quality
get guarenteed increases first
alright cool, thanks a bunch
what item level are you?
then just work on gems and tripods if not maxed yet
yes quality is put as last option
thats what they wrote yeah
always do quality last dont be like ppl that just throw gold into quality lol
yea i was say if he was lower level maybe taps but yea u are already high item level just work gems and tripod if not maxed
no need to hone anymore right now
yeah im looking at gems then, good idea
has anyone done the "Dangerous Hacking" rapport quest from Anke? It says I need to "Investigate the secret research lab". When i press locate it shows me the Totrich zone in Arthentine but doesn't show exactly where in there it is, so I'm a bit lost if anyone has done it already would appreacite some help
shouldn’t that be lower level of stern?
For Una's which of the Feiton tasks are the current "meta"?
I can go check there and see
yea ur right it is
Does roster icon change at 200?
no, 201
Oww okey thank you
does anyone know how to make your account trusted status? its not letting me buy gold with crystals lol
if ur steam account is brand new u need to spend atleast $5 on anything. If already have done that then u need to activate 2-factor-authentication for steam and then wait a few days ive heard trusted can take from 1-30 days lol
some people say u get it faster if u just buy some royal crystals from in-game
yeah
thats what i did
bought royal crystals
but this account is like
1 year old
im so confused
if u just bought the crystals maybe try log in and out / try activate 2-factor-authentication / wait like 1 or 2 day
already had my authentication set up ages ago so maybe ill try restart
yea restart or like i said try again 2morrow cuz might take atleast 1 day maybe
yeah thanks for helping me out man
I am confused how the currency exchange tabs works in the store. I wanted to experiment with using gold to buy blue crystals, and all I could do was put up an offer of 2660 gold for 100 crystals. Where's the other side? How do you complete the transaction?
if you've offered at a rate that is lower than what people are buying gold for, then you'll be put into a queue
until someone buys gold at what you're offering
once exchange happens, it will be in history and you can claim
The trusted is after 7 days of making a payment. So if you bought today, you have to wait 7d
Im new and I will now start buying accessories for my build, is there any site or application that tells me with what I should go on each accessory?
The Community Guide shows you both, which engravings to go for and what the proper stat distribution for your class is
@hollow kelp
What does HM legion raids give that NM does not ?
more gold , more relic set materials mainly
like i think nm gives 6 Valtan bones how much does Hm give?
12 or 17 if u buy auction chest
oh shi ye that would speed up the process quite a bit...
I see
And HM is gatekeeping hell, NM is jail time 
... damn supports 😡
then why would you not do hm
Im only 1415 I just didnt hone i have like 1k ghls in storage lol
i dono what i was upto
got carried away with 4th alt ig
you need more gleaps than that
does anyone have issues with mellemar's molar? i don't see any of them drop at all
it's a rowen collectible for the tome
Is that the purple one
ye
I think I've gotten a few of those from doing the siege events/weeklies. But maybe that was from the raid group killing enemies 
ive been doing them too but i haven't gotten a single one
do u need to basic attack or is this a translation issue
You need to basic attack
Anyone knows where is this?
above south vern
Nice thanks!
its only me or lost ark crash random after last patch?
ever since wensday ive noticed people in my PUG groups mention high ping and also dc's happen but i have not dc at all but my ping goes high randomly sometimes
ping and connection fine, the game litteraly close random no error no nothing
lol idk then
this is the main objective. i tried to purchase gold in the store, but i have no required crystals to purchase gold to proceed the game.
Are you new? You dont have to complete this quest the moment you get it. Just untrack it and come back when the game gives you gold
yes, i'm a new player. so what to do now beside the main game objective?
You mean story?
yes.
Story doesn't require you to decorate or build anything in stronghold
Story unlocks Chaos dungeons that give you resources to progress your account and unlock other PvM activities
if i leave it as it is then it won't continue the story.
I didn't start doing anything in mine till I was like 1445
what does that number mean?
Show your quest log
Ilvl
Its his total gear score the higher the more powerful you are and more content you unlock
You really don't need to to touch stronghold early game can leave it till way later
Yeah
What ilvl are you currently
sooo... what you suggest i go do side quests from other npc's instead?
a question about guild siege challenges / raid matches: how many can we do each week to earn extra bloodstones? all of them? or do we pick 1 raid match and 1 siege and thats it?
Like the big number to the top right when you press p
27
What
He has a stronghold tho

Oh wait
I forgot I thought you get a sh when your 302
Mb lol
so what to do to get gold?
my character is lvl 27.
if your character is level 27 then you still have main story quests you can do
this is the main story quest.
at some point, the main story quests switch from orange colour to cyan blue
that's just some stronghold side quest you don't have to worry about. you can see the icon is a house
i have no gold to craft whatever the strong hold wants from me, so can't continue the main story.
check your quests list for a quest with a globe icon that's bright blue?
it's still orange.
the rest are purple.
Hi, any guild for new players?
stronghold quests are orange, thats why he thinks its mandatory to progress
I mean press J
Thanks
Follow the quest thats tagged main
see the 'main' quest a bit lower? that's the actual main quest
they're both orange but this is just a stronghold quest
i think i found it and just ticked it lol.
you can tick the box in that screen next to it to make it show up in the quest list
yep
to avoid confusion u should just abandon all non main quests
to remove them
thanks a lot, friendly peeps! 🥰 😘 😍 💓
can only track 6 quests at most iirc so recommend to uncheck the ones you arent doing them anytime soon
uh, you don't have to abandon em in case you wanna go back and do them later, but if you want to you can untick them so they don't show in the list
now i'm going to continue my awesome gaming.
Gusy why doesn't I see nothing in auction house
if anyone who has knowledge about guild related stuff could help me would be appreciated
you're searching for rare 'chest' items only i think?
is there a lab research i need to do to craft superior orehas with stronghold farm?
yes same as the other orehas
if u need materials for the armor still then buy box, if u are someone that buys materials to hone then buy box, if u are someone that does not buy materials to hone and are done with armor set dont buy box.
looking for active guild guys
I only buy leaps sometimes
then buy the last box in raids for leapstones and extra fused leapstones
is usually the best option
how does leap essence interact with Stronghold farm? do you get more matts from your farm the pots?
Use win + shift + s to take a screenshot. I can barely read what's on your screen bro.
same as openworld source. double life energy, dura for double loots,xp
i am a returning player, i have been back playing for like 6 weeks now, and i just realized they added a tier 3 tower
worth doing?
im not actually at home just curious, only now found out it existed
It's not the Tier 3 tower but very similar, it's worth doing for the mats 
nice, that will help im close to 1460
Tier 3 tower isn't in our version yet. Thronespire is tho and is likely what you're referring to. It gives massive rewards one time per roster. Just jump straight to floor 25 and you'll get all lower rewards as well.
neat, yea Thronespire thats what i saw, thanks for clarify
Ah so it does have safe spots. Could've sworn I dodged it before. So it's like yellow's almost filled attack but way less time to get there
I just ran out of Pheons because I didn't know items at T3 need it. How do end game players get their Pheons and build their characters?
alot of gold
Is it sustainable if you do gold earning content and spend it on Pheons until you have enough then later spend on honing?
spend alot of gold or just swipe for pheons directly
no
95 blue crystal cost like 3k gold or smth
you get 1 pheon per 10 blue crystal i think
to put into perspective a full relic acessory build will cost about 75 pheons and 100 pheons will cost 480 blue crystal so however much is the rate for blue crystal is how much u will pay on pheons alone and then u need to have gold for the actual acessory too lol
then you need a rock
and gold for that rock (depends)
i just swipe for pheons wen i need them 🤷♂️
yes basically
and how much is swiping
480 crystal for 100 pheons so like 10 dollars or so
I see, if I still have fun until a relic set might as well
Also do you lose Pheons for selling items too?
no
Thank god
but you loose pheons if you transfer it to another char
Roster storage?
you cant put it there
yea so for poor suckers like me who buy acessory for artist just incase end up paying double the pheon cost lol
Wait so there is a way to transfer bound items to other chars with Pheons?
Oh okay
Cant you buy them yourself on the new character?
hello, just returned to playing lost ark, currently item level 1432 how do i unlock legion raids
yea but i bought artist acessories with "decent" quality for my 5x3 build for like 20k for everything and i bet wen artist comes out all the acessories will double in price or just be scarce in general. So i just bought them ahead of time. Artist isnt out yea so i rather get them now than get shafted wen its released
you have 2 unlocked, valtan and vykas
Oh yah I forgot about that. It's smarter
the game says i need to unlock through a quest guide but i see none
press J look at the guide tab then
i dont have legion raids under there
is there a purple quest in the main city you can accept?
maybe around the legion raid portal
do all classes get bonus for front attacking? and or back attacking? if so, what is the bonus
i have none, are there pre requiste quests
back attack is 5% dmg 10% crit, front is 20% dmg 10% stagger/weak
South vern and that's about it
so g4 brel, if everyone does front attack instead of eating ass, we can do the stagger 10% faster?
you have to have the modifier on the skill to back/front attack
frontal does more stagger?
if you have no quests available then im out of ideas
ah i think this could be it ill do the south vern quests
no
ok
anyone know of a decent crafting profit calculator? the one I was using doesnt have new fusion mats on it
artist on wednesday?
lostarkmarket
it seems like I cant change prices there which is a bit annoying
unless im missing something
idk i use excel
3/15 more likely
😦
if my argos weap is +20 can i transfer it to new legion weapons
Legendary to Relic is 1:1 transfer
ah so itll still be +20?
Yes
thats nice to know thank you :-)
Niche question: If you had to choose between Master's Tenacity 2 and Keen Blunt Weapon 2 on a build that is under 50% HP all the time with 1212 Crit bonus what would you choose
Also how bad is Atk power reduction 1
If you're asking about buying acc for a build, only buy when you can make a proper 4x3 or better with no malice. Otherwise, you're just wasting a ton of gold.
Na i just have 2 ability stones one gives me 2 levels of keen blunt and the other 2 master tenacity. Also by no malice you mean 0 negative effects is a must?
Tbh, I don't accept anyone with malice. I would also never use keen blunt unless you can get level 3.
hi! sorry if this is a silly question, how do you get more green level class engravings? Idk why but i have plenty of blue ones, but i cant use them until i use the green engraving books T.T
Google "green engraving quests lost ark"
should be a list of per character quests you can do.
Otherwise, you buy them off the market.
https://lostarkcodex.com/us/quest/4530133/
I cant find where to start this anywhere on the map. I've done bervers friend
also is it possible for ur progress to get "deleted"? sorry if this sounds delusional but i swear i upgraded my weapon and it had a weird green glow (i remember cuz i didnt like the green color) and today when i logged on its not glowing (the setting isnt turned off/on) and also all my skills got messed up on the hotkeys
im hella confused wat happened
No, all data is server side and is never wiped.
omg luckily i didnt enhance that much but i have no idea wtf happend between last night and today LOL
quick question, for sorceress reflux or ignite for max dps?
also ty im gonna do that rn
igniter by far
Igniter is only good if you never miss double doomsday and have enough spec
focus special or crit
ty
Reflux beats igniter if the igniter misses doomsdays
all of this highly depends on what class and spec you're playing
anyone know about a trae of light?
You don’t gave to be good to play reflux, you have to be for igniter lol, it’s not as simple as saying igniter > reflux. Most players are closer to the floor than the ceiling
just for raids mage fire dps crit dmg/crit strike
If you miss DD on igniter you’re trolling
what class and class engraving are you using
actually, what class are you playing in the first place?
Yes, so sorceress. Read above.
New players shouldn’t be coaxed into playing a skilled class tbh, igniter also needs good quality for enough spec or you’re rarely in ignition, plus you have to land both DD or it’s dps drops below reflux. It also requires a lvl 8 cd gem on DD and there’s no room for failure
Really needs a lvl 9
It’s also super slow and not enjoyable unless the above criteria is met
I started with pm gs
this isn't useful. if people want to play igniter and see big numbers they can do so. just because some of the gameplay is difficult doesnt mean you should just tell new players to not play it
once you understand how and when to burst on a burst class your gameplay is actually far easier than on any consistent damage class
Yeah, telling people to play a braindead class is a way to make them quit out of boredom.
"dps drops below reflux" is also completely arbitrary. ultimately you can always do more damage by just honing more
frankly the only thing that should matter is that the player enjoys the gameplay
because once you enjoy it, you'll want to invest in the character (get better gear) and then also want to improve your own play
It’s true tho, a reflux with decent uptime beats out the igniter troll who derped a single DD
Ok then, how about two missed DDs?
I think it’s a single missed DD, but surely 2 missed is game over
i literally play with a igniter sorc in my brel static and he routinely gets mvp damage even though he tells us he misses doomsdays
There’s a lot of variables involved
regardless, hitting 4 skills is typically easier than landing about 100
but anyway. as i said. you can believe what you want. my only point is that i think it's not helpful to tell people not to play certain specs
bosses move alot in raids, DD can be missed alot
because of what you think about its difficulty
Have you played reflux? You can almost hit your trix dps. It’s incredibly easy
buddy. that's not the point
I can land 100 all day
some people maybe dont want to play reflux
so how is it helpful telling them to play reflux
We’re talking to a new player here
yes
so if they want to play igniter
is it not better to tell them about playing igniter
rather than telling them to play reflux?!
And you don’t realize why that’s a bad path to lead him down at this stage?
whatever, i can already see this is a pointless debate
An igniter that can’t double DD isn’t more dps than reflux
He asked what’s more damage
So there ya go
and igniter is more damage
No, it depends
equal skill, equal gear level
igniter will usually outstrip reflux
by some distance
in raid scenario
Most players are closer to the floor than the ceiling
you cant even mention reflux and igniter in the same sentence XD
I see reflux get mvp all the time as well
buddy. you can believe what you want to believe but i think you are in a huge minority if you think reflux is close to igniter at all for damage in raids on equal gear

Buddy, you gotta land doomsdays. You play with igniters who can do that. It’s not all of them
Double doomsday
this is why i said equal gear and skill 
if you cant doesnt mean average gamer cant
your entire argument seems to be igniter players have no hands
in which case i guess yeah, you're right. they do zdps
You pay attention to the sorcs who get mvp, but not he ones who aren’t
Those are the ones missing
my static has 3 sorcs 2 of them igniter and 1 reflux
never seen refluxer on mvp screen
all ~same gear
Test it for yourself in trix. Compare uptime reflux to your igniter and miss one or two in a minute parse
xD
XDD you cant compare trixion dps of burst vs sustained class
the fact that you are talking about trixion means you have no clue
boss fights are heavily weighted towards burst specs
igniter trixion dps is complete garbo
The frog leapstone is worth it ? do it gives a lot ? just bought the shard until now
it's like blue gl level
You really love Reflux don't you Phenomen
if yo uwould buy them otherwise yeah
it 30g ea from frog 
but in an actual raid scenario igniter can do its entire damage rotation and then build gauge during dr phases or when other classes cant dps well
But how many it gives ? im afraid isnt worth on my region cause leap prices here are so low
dont remember how many you get but its 30g each from frog
the 1490 ones are 25g here.
Im considering a push from 45 to 60, but its like about 1200 gleaps
so 19g ea
That helps
there are 2 of those boxes in 1 frog box
So its 20 boxes for 3k gold
yeah
It still worth by a bit.
almost half the price
I did my math and there is 1,5K difference between buying on market
yea
Its going to take a while to get 1460 maybe ill just free hone my road, or get those every week on that character
Im doing that but i wanted to get this char to 60 since on 45 i dont really do vykas normal
Cause it takes a lot of effort
Vykas bus is like 3k ? and the run gives like 3,3
idk how much bus and yeah something like that
could get some mats for your relic set
which is like
super important 😄
esp 6 set
Lets say this alt is getting replaced next month
well then i dont see why you would even hone it at all
Yeah, i was thinking it was cheaper for some reason
I dont remember wasting that much on others until put on calculator
But since the character is new it doesnt have much bound mats
I guess for gold profit 1445 is a good place to be
yeah dont bother 😄
So I currently got a lucky 9-7 stone with 7 on grudge is it useless for me now to aim for 5x3 +2 once ancient releases? because lvl2 grudge seems pretty bad
Got 5x3 +1 adrenaline atm
dont do lvl 2 grudge lol
So i just stay there right?
yes, level 2 grudge is just bad
but you will get cheap ancient accs
so it's not the worst thing 🙂
how much skill points should i aim to farm to start with
You mean like i can go for a 5 grudge 3 keen instead for 6 grudge 3 keen?
i have 357
something like that yes. you just have more nodes on your stone which is always good
okok
Well unlucky then
I ideally need the 7 on adrenaline for future stones right?
correct
happened to me too
So when does brel wepon change its glows?
can you fuse gems that are of different class?
yes, it fuses to the class you're currently on
yes
oh nice thanks
Are you asking about which hone lvl corresponds to what glow? 13, 14 is blue & yellow, 15, 16, 17 is purple & yellow, 18, 19 is red & orange, 20 is white
Do you need all your gear at +20 to unlock the final raid sets?
+20 = 1490 item level which unlocks brelshaza raid and brelshaza upper relic gear
Ah so you do need max everything that’s such a pain >.>
max everything would be +25 which is like 1575, which is not needed
unless its max everything legendary, in which case yes
I didn’t know they went above 20 :0 thank you just relearning the game and I’m so confused by the new gear progression
relic goes above 20
you can go something like 21 armor and 19 weapon on support if you so desire
Is there a gear profession guide
profession or progression
Progression*
Currently have full Argos, +17~20
1370 all blues>get legendary
+17 legendary which is 1445 > get relics when you can (can keep honing legendary higher, 1:1 conversion)
+20 relics > get relic 2.0 from brel
Is the Twilight Soul Isle drop rate low?
Should i convert my fused leap into advanced or try to tap a piece to +22
do you really trust your luck to tap a 3%
idk
only you can answer that
more mats with a much lower success rate or less mats with a higher rate
pick your poison
(just dont dude 22 is useless, convert to brel)
ok ok
you could just continue to not run it and it would have exactly the same value as before
people said that its like 10% less gems drops compared to a normal boss rush
but idk bout that
besides you get a lot more things
we also have literally no idea when it will come to global, could be next month could be next year
No. You'll be fine saving them for the conversion over to the new ones. Also its just comparatively slightly less gems for the lower ilvl version of the new ticket from what I understand, thats all.
Hey everyone i have not played in maybe 6 months or more, is everything in the game now in terms of vertical progression? All continents are added?
where should the player with star+diamond shape above their head stand in brel g3?
mobalytics says they should go away but in multiple guide videos they're in the middle
No, there's constant content still being added to KR so content in the west is still catching up regardless. This game is all about vertical progression and it will still go up and up
Wait, i thought vertical was done and they focus on horizontal
Hell nah
We still have to get Elgacia continent, Akkan raid, Kayangel abyss dungeon, and more
kind of bold to assume vertical will never get more things added
the day they stop adding vertical content is the day the game dies
literally
you read that entirely wrong dude, star+cube stands in the middle, diamond stays away from everyone
how many ilvl do guardian stone and stone of destruction become small tokens?
yeah I know but what about the star+diamond
maybe im stupid but i dont recall star and diamond going together, ever
well..
they do
you just move away with that
then im stupid ;D

idk i just go for diamond and run away from everyone
it also happens quite often
static things
I was just trying to get it clearly cuz in written guides it says to go away from everyone, meanwhile in atk and memos guide they're in the middle 
or maybe im missremembering shapes, honestly my brain is fried today
but since they didn't die there there must be something else that killed us
iirc I think you can stand where cubes are as star diamond and not wipe bc it only relates to other diamonds? i might be schizo
it doesnt matter
maybe it matters for hm
but not for nm
🤔
that could be it
but diamonds should stay away in general so it's weirdge
As others said vertical is never done, but also KR (like over a year ago) said that they were going to slow down on adding vertical content like Legion Raids for a period so as to focus on horizontal content. But that was a KR region specific thing, not really associated with our region. They've been adding things progressively to our version this whole time.
Since that point the Akkan Legion Raid was added in KR, as well as Elgacia continent and its associated Abyssal Dungeon and now they have the new Voldike continent also with its associated Abyssal Dungeon.
So they never stopped they just "slowed" down but not really? 😄
I mean i am all for them adding content as long as i dont have to upgrade all the time
You don't have to upgrade "all the time" so long as you're not FOMOing out over doing the content day 1 of its release
wrong genre :c
Also Lost Ark is a vertical progression treadmill MMORPG
more things get added = more than probably higher ilv, its called progression
if you're stuck in one ilv for a very long time, game wont be able to get more interesting things imo, it gets boring
If you want GW2 there is GW2. This game is not going to follow that path. Just being straight with you on that.
They could just keep adding raids?
I played shitons of gw2
more raids with the same power
great game!
not rly
Yes but people like vertical power progression
But i have no idea where i am lol
Its a carrot to chase
People like carrots to chase
Its a very simple, basic thing but thats how this works
I don't i would be happy if i stay at same gear but with new stuff to do
whales wont have something to whale for
but yeah i get you
sitting in one ilv for a long time will just be bad for the game in general
that said, when's t4
But the bright side is that you can gear all of your alts and min max to your heart content
I dont know what is that have not played for a long time
dont worry, we will get to a point where we wont get anything for a long long time
If you don't want to keep chasing ilvl and gear endlessly this is not the kind of MMORPG for you, or you can simply choose to not want to chase after that so vehemently as everyone else and just play casually.
we're still catching up
Yeah but at lower ilvl its really hard to find people to do stuff with
or if you are not optimized nobody wants you sooo
because you're not in a guild, probably
Atm i havent even installed it yet
Yup, and there is gatekeeping as well. All considerations to be made.
Tbh, doesn’t even have to be a guild. Just a community of people you hang with is good enough.
but i was in a guild everyone was rushing like insane to high lvls
As I said, though, if you want a GW2 like or adjacent experience...very much not the game for that.
people like the feeling of getting stronger. thats why most game have a progression system. if the game has no progress people gets bored and go play another game that gives them that feeling
Actually GW2's lack of gear treadmill is both a pro and a con. It has pretty low player retention because of it and people who like to see their character gain in power there is a literal stopping point for that.
So you actually hit an end in that game
What was the gear progression in gw2? do you remember?
I had the orange weapons last
It can take a bit to get there, especially if a new player in it, but you still hit a stopping point
there was purple/pink after that?
Pink aka Ascended is after that
and its done?
Thats where the stat increases stop
hmm so i am already there and i havent played that game in god knows how many years 😄
Legendary is the same stats as Ascended, but Legendary gear is just more convenient for stat swapping
but they introduced some class mixing or something
Nope, no class mixing
Just Elite Specializations which is basically just a like...new talent tree for the class
Comes with new abilities and can use a different weapon if you have that spec equipped
GW2 is all "horizontal" additions
No power increases
had to double check if im on lost ark discord
Is excavation the most profitable life skill right now? Use the mats to craft honing material and sell it on the mb?
@shut pastureIs there any page i can check my characters?
For Lost Ark? No. You'd have to log in.
In gw2 to see where i am at, i know off topic but you seem to know a lot
no for gw2
login in lost ark to check your gw2 char
hey guys i just hit the luterra castle (i am level 29) and i have no idea what to do there are so many new things and especially the housing system is very confusing is there somesort of guide or something like htat?
The stronghold?
yea
The tldr for your level is to open the lab and research everything
Just focus on that
you don't really have to worry about it for a while
this is gonna suck to hear but better now than later euw is dead region if you wanna play at least somewhat seriously highly recommend switching over to euc 
euw was opened up because euc was overfilled but it never popped off and now ppl even with thousands of hours are swapping over if they haven't already
and yeah just start over
is 5x3 +2 the best you can get with ancients accs?
yes
cant i swap my char over or something?
nope
what stone would you need for that 9/7?
i dont have 7/7 on most of my chars so im curious if thats whats needed
i have leg books
if you don't you wont be buying any ancient accs XD
they gonna cost hundreds ok thousands fo anything 3 6 usable
for probably like half a year
yeah probably
can ancients go from 3/3 -> 3/6 or how is this gonna work?
like relic can go from 3/3 -> 3/4 -> 3/5
etc
not sure what lowest is for ancient
i see
when do we get ancient stuff?
i asked the streamers and it seems like distribution is 3/4 3/5 3/6 for anyone curious
when hard brel comes out
do we know when that is?
somewhere in april

Ancient rolls from 4-3 as lowest up to 6-3
Ah you already got your answer 🙂
when we get hard brel is when they gonna add the ester drop to clown right? or does clown not have that
I do not believe we are getting Ester in any capacity
we dont even know if they're gonna add esther, at all
ok, i guess that patch had no mention of that so either we not getting it or some other time
They’ve said before that they’re not adding it
oh
Its kind of a whale heavy system hence them not adding it
Until they can work out how they implement it
so i cant get my 500k gold drop each week, sad (?
But tbh it sounds like they won’t add Esther at all because the other regions won’t like it if western release has an “easier” way to obtain it
Well I don't think they would do it just to the west, I think if anything SG would rework the system to not essentially require whaling
But we'll see what comes of that
Because its a whole ass system that won't be in our game, same with Yoz's Jar
Which is unfortunate af
Though I highly doubt its like a mega priority for SG to work on this
each day they dont release esther on the west is a day they lose cash
And if anything we'd likely not see it, if ever, until T4 is "a thing" which that is still an up in the air "if" situation too
t4 is a when
How they do it is the bigger question
For sure
They have suggested that it won't be as hard of a reset as the other tiers were
after we beat the rest of the legion commanders
But when we see it, how we see it, we'll see.
once were done with arkesia is most likely when they have a better chance of doing it
But yeah they’ve said the story is like only half done?
Not even half
half? more like 15%
Ha
yeah
Thats why Gold River is on that part of the team only now
To direct that and not the everything else as well
and now we're left with domination/endurance/expertise
Please use the #937124645092610059 for this
That one too.
Got it sorry
np
there is no way to dissasemble gear that are already +1 right?
Is there a tier 3 island route
not really
correct
Well T3 is where the real endgame begins. 1302 to 1370 is pretty easy these days, 1370 to 1415 is much easier than it used to be but from then on thats the real real game
how many phantom marks can you earn per week?
250? iirc
ty
i wish i knew that the weekly honing books that you buy with the phantom marks were the same +19 books that brel drops. i could have had so much more ready for artist
better late than never
wats a good way to get these uhh honor shards
when i have more abilities than what they show up on the bottom of the screen, what do i press to access them when i know i've unlocked them?
Chaos Dungeons are your main source of shards, theres some shops here and there you can buy from to get them as well but less significant
To manage all your skills, you can press K on your keyboard or go to the bottom right, Character > Combat Skills
@old dew
thanks
just the daily chaos dung? or does spamming them do anything
Its not really advised to spam them.
You just need to accumulate the shards over time is all. What ilvl are you?
im at 1374, tryna find ppl to do argos so i can craft the rest of my legendary gear and aim for 1385
Does anyone know if your life skill tool quality (rare, legendary, relic) will affect your stronghold farm?
The anniversary skins aren't dyeable, are they
It does
Well the effect of the tool is what counts
If I'm being honest, so long as you're under 1415 item level and without a proper 4x3 engraving build, it's going to be hard to find a group for g1-3 argos.
Your best option is to find a group of people/guild to run with. Worst case you'll have to buy a bus (carry) to get through. You will still net positive in gold if you buy.
Correct, they are not dyeable
no
is there any looking for group functionality on this discord that are not guild recruitment, like finding people to run a bunch of card runs with etc
#979604974218653736 This channel with your region on the end of it, I think you can look for people to do card runs there
something like #na-west-region-chat or #937124864404365312
yeah
i can't find it amongst the tabs tho if thats a thing
oh i had to unlock it thanks
doesnt appear to be super active but ill give it a shot
most people just join a guild for that kind of thing
Questions for the beserkers out there,
What card sets are the best. I heard We'll meet again is a good set but idk what to use for the other 3.
uh i think its called forest giant
but later on u want to use damage card set instead
Any suggestions?
there's the guide
Awesome
can also ask in the #berserker channel
If you're low iLvL with a shitty build and want to do Argos try matchmaking if you're desperate (no one to help you and you still want to progress). Could get something before reset with this until you find people. I luckily managed to clear all 3 gates with matchmaking (only if you want to really try the raid and are bored)
I would NEVER suggest match making unless you absolutely refuse to buy a bus. You’re legit just telling someone to roll the dice and hope they don’t get jailed and possibly fuсk over their progression. 
Oh yeah I forgot about the bus because I had 0 gold after I got to 1370 lol. I was expecting to get jailed though and since 0 gold might as well try for fun
Bro, don’t comment in here if you don’t know what you’re talking about 
Eh if someone else is also a new player there is a chance they're in the same situation or just want to try for fun instead of speedrunning
Then word it differently. Telling someone to gamble on match making is just griefing a new player.
Yeah true
!machinist
Is there a way i can gift a friend a powerpass
Yeah, just send them a steam gift card with a “for power pass” memo.
is there a way to reopen the auction window
how do you level up pets
You can buy experience potions with the cookies from the farm
Any suggestion of good spot to do logging and mining?
Click the bell icon at the top left and you should be able to access it again if you closed it
put them on the treadmill
punika timeshelf and the one with the hot springs is pretty good
tideshelf for trees and starsand for rocks
i have gems equipped at my preset, but when i load into guardian raid with it, the gems arent equipped.. why..?
did u select the preset in the guardian menu?
there was a bug before where equipped gems wouldnt equip going into guardian
i had that a few times when i got a new gem
but uhh
hasnt happened for a while
do all ur gems unequip?
yes
maybe try re-equipping them all then swap to the other gem preset and see if it has the yellow icon on it
found a solution
swaping presets doesnt help, but renaming the preset helps
and thank you @minor briar 
oh damn
Hey guys. How come I can't enter the giant mushroom area to do logging?
My logging just reached lv 10 as I understand that's the prerequisite
I bought the juice to make me small and walked to the entrance but nothing pops up
u do the pre-quest?
cant find. please help me
there;s no quest to go inside
maybe u accepeted it on another char?
yea ok ill try find
is there anyway to get the back/front attack indicators to be the exact same color on all characters without having to write in the color code on all of them?
wat do i do with all of these boxes btw
you can use them to get the respective coins
its not roster wide? unlucky then lol
you can also transfer Sun coins to pirate coins at the dock ship
gotta do it manually ig
ignoring why youd want that in the first place, yes they are not synced for your entire roster do it manually
i meant more of what to get lol
sun coins if you want to get pirate coins, otherwise keep since there are other things that cost each of the different coins
oke
some ppl dont like white/blue
its a one time thing just do it for all your 24 characters 
one argos run without buyin any box can make craft 2 armor pieces ?
if its first clear ye
no not first clear
If i just did phase 1 argos, can I start phase 2 in the same day and get rewards?
it doesnt even give enough to make 2 if u buy boxes then
gives u 20 only
ye, right after u finish gate 1
Do you get rewardds?
thank u
can i abandon a roster quest and continue it on a different character?
?
yeah u can do phase 1-3 continuously at the same day
all 3
Each gate acts as a separate checkpoint. So yeah, you can still get rewards from each phase you haven't cleared yet.
But keep in mind, almost no one does only g2-3.
g2 and 3 is basically prison
do all 3
u can try to do 2 and 3 today, its just hard to find people in party finder
at once
👍
u have to pick it up again on that char
You should do all three at once. You will need to find 7 other people at the same gate as you to proceed. As said before, nearly everyone does g1-3 in one go.
i know it's a vague question, but how do you go about getting better at DPSing, after all, there is nothing that tells you you're doing your job in game unless you're the MVP.
Watch some videos of good players. ATK has a lot of bus videos. Bus requires high uptime, so that may be a good start if there are no "how to deal big dick dmg as certain class" videos.
u guys recon 3300 gienah coins for song of starlight in order to speed up sasha and beatrice rapport is worth it?
sasha is worth my all
oh i just realized u can also get song of temptation from yudia adventure book
Yeah, get both
Yes.
What does it say above the window that shows which song/emote it is?
learn boss patterns to increase ur dps uptime
also if u on the mvp board, u can see how much dmg u relatively did
with the glow underline showing u that u were top of that category
weird way of spelling luna
SPITTIN
The angle you get in the Alberhastic cutscene for the Guardian questline tho

this guy knows

Is it worth buying a half price untradable 100 qual acc, while it is around 90-100k for 95-100qual for the same thing but tradeable 2 times?
The untradeable one is currently at buyout 40k
nvm i figured it out
xd i thought i got scamazed
so i see this and im not sure i understand it
its just an ad
it's an ad for their stronghold
for gambling house
lmfao
cuz ppl at cal ilvl would have the mats to gamble
Gamba
if u never gonna sell/change builds then why not
bro the fish prices ;-;
can someone please explain to me the etiquette to do kung? people say items but how am i supposed to know?
FPDC Flare Phero Destro Corrosive and Party 1/2/3/4 for slots and item usage
p1 or 1 is first pheromone which means they will throw the pheromone for the first attempted flee (after shell breaks)
p2 or 2 is for second pheromone which means they will throw the pheromone for after the first "blizzard" it does where you need to freeze to be safe
c is for corrosive which means they will throw the corrosive to make the shell break faster
If that stuff isn't called it will typically follow what Sephy typed out.
i think tortle is usually FPPC
with corrosive being tossed at the very start of the fight
ty
Well there is ancient accs.
u could keep that acc still
It will be a very long time before you gear full ancient unless you’ve been playing for a long time or a whale.
pretty sure u can still get 5x3+1 with not all 6/3
You cant move characters across regions right?
With relic acc yes. But they were talking about anicnent acc
oh ok
No. At least not yet. Might be a thing. Might not
Nope. Can't even move them across servers. Only happened once in KR and it was for a limited time and it had to be done "manually"
Gotcha
What class would you all say has the highest APM? I enjoy press a lot of buttons
For Brel raid which gear part should I craft first
Probably any of the Martial Artists and possibly even the Assassins. Can sometimes depend on the Class Engraving for even those, though.
Gotcha, I was looking into Arcana emperor, seems fun!
That sounds right down my alley haha
swift tth
Do you guys have priority list for the item from the event?
I just arrived at punika with 1100 item level, wonder if there is specific item that i should prioritize
You should get your 1302 ilvl gear from the Chaos Dungeon first
So it would be better for me to echange the event currency with honing mats?
Just starting what character is the most fun to play?
Or perhaps there is some item that i should exchange first before doing so
whatever you like the most
Pick for me!
Up to you and how much of the hot spring cards you have access to. You can always get more and buy over the course of the rest of the week.
what do you play on other games
the defecto starter characters are normally zerk and sorc, but youd be better off just looking at gameplay of each class and picking yourself
A little cutie usually!
I only have 300ish atm, just back into the game 3 days ago
I suggested getting 1302 first because then you can hone with what you get initially with that, and also assuming you get every piece of gear you need for 1302.
unless by cutie you mean hotie
generally don't pick a support for first character as leveling sucks balls on them
What about the bow and arrow guy he any good?
everything in this game is good
What character is the fastest?
in what way
Like combos on combos
skill spam, im guessing
a lot of classes have that
any, or at least most of the swift classes
you're not helping us dude, gotta get more details on what you actually play or enjoy
Does it matter what characters I make they all share stuff with eachother right?
not really, most but not all
more swiftness you built faster you will use your skills
classes like first intention war dancer uses swiftness
their equipment is untradable, some of the mats they get to upgrade are not tradable
well one of thems gonna be ur "main" so preferably the one u enjoy the most
if you like extreme power metal fast apm, there are a couple, but just by "skill spam" we cant pick for ya
fun is subjective and you may hate some classes and love other ones
wardancer / flashy
pick one
so might have to watch vids if u want
Let's do power metal!
my dude into dragon force
war dancer with first intention could work with you
400-500g ?
check recent prices or lowest up
is hermida song still the best ship skin?
oh there is communication summoner
it is
buttom mashing class
fast apm i can think of are:
Wardancer, TTH Gunslinger, Reaper, CO Summoner (kind of), Glaivier (Pinnacle kind of), EO Soul Fist, Arcanist, DISH
sure
Thanks
8 is a lot?
at a slow-ish rate*
oh yeah dish
theres not many classes that stand out as just stupid high apm
arcana, summoner and fi wd all kinda hit the same bar tbh
Thank you all I'm off shadow hunter it is!
dish
I wish shadowhunter books werent 14k, she is cool but too expensive to keep 2 spec chars on rooster
whats 4x3
number of engravings at level 3
4 at level 3 in this case
engravings are what gives you power, tldr, in different ways
either a direct damage boost or something like increased a.spd or walk speed or lower cds on some thing
when does Argos gates reset? im stuck at gate 3 cus no ones doing em 🧍
do i have to upgrade my Argos/Oreha to 20 or just 15?



ye


really should
