[radiant flame]

I think you kind of need super armour on both, but depends on your map I guess

Bellion you can’t do without super armour

[echo owl]

minigame automatically has SA

[hollow scroll]

thats where you rage awaken

[radiant flame]

The premium is a pretty good deal usually

[radiant flame]

Oh that’s right

[hollow scroll]

getting slapped by mobs just hit v

[tall wren]

Guess I'll check it out tomorrow and then decide

[acoustic iron]

do we get the free boxes for character out of the main 6 roster tomorow ?

[radiant flame]

No

[acoustic iron]

sadge

i thought kr had that with the same update they got x2 mats

[weak mauve]

They did

We did not

[acoustic iron]

well, lets hope they forgot to mention it or didnt get the info

copium

[weak mauve]

Hard copium

I don't think we will be getting it

[hollow scroll]

we get this though

[tall wren]

What box?

[hollow scroll]

wording is per character not per gold earner

[acoustic iron]

the chest you usually pay with gold is free in kr but i think there is a max number of charcter that get it free per week

[echo owl]

there isn’t

well there is it’s the limit of your roster past your 6 earners

[acoustic iron]

cant people claim chest for free on alts outside of the 6 earners ? i remember something like that

[echo owl]

literally what I wrote

free past 6

[harsh dawn]

Who is Arcturus

[acoustic iron]

[snow wadi]

Brel Gate 5
where she spawns the golden safe spots
theres always a gimmick right before it that knocks me off

its the tatoos on the floor, right?

[radiant flame]

Yes

[snow wadi]

but that applies to both safe zone mechanics right?

[radiant flame]

Hmm. I think so? 🙂

Definitely for the mini safe zones

[harsh dawn]

Particles out her hands like the useless X-Men hero jubilee

[orchid willow]

how they designing gear looks lol, wearing nightmare flower chest, lower back is open

[snow wadi]

cant find a video explaining it properly

[radiant flame]

Tbh I think the main thing is to just not spacebar getup unless you need to

Because even if you recognise it you might not be able to do anything about it without getup

[hollow scroll]

[orchid willow]

i see some videos where mages doing 100m dmg in brelshaza raid, how i do that much dmg my max is 10m

[brisk helm]

It's intended prob

[radiant flame]

Because you are lacking like, endgame gear

[brisk helm]

They do 100m dmg but then boss hp is way higher too

[radiant flame]

You probably don’t have anywhere close to 5x3 engravings, you probably haven’t touched tripods, you probably don’t have full relic set or level 2 relic set, you are missing like 100 item levels, missing gems/weapon quality, card set

[brisk helm]

My soulfist rn does 30-40m with awakening considering it crits

[radiant flame]

If you have all of the above and do 10m doomsdays, then you have a problem

[brisk helm]

Gems too

[orchid willow]

tripods?

[radiant flame]

I said gems

[radiant flame]

Precisely 😂

Think you’ll need to find a tripod guide

But essentially the amulets you get

Drop levelled tripods

[hollow scroll]

too busy looking at sorcs ass focus on the raid instead

[radiant flame]

You need to start marking the tripods you use

And then upgrade them at the skill tree merchant

[brisk helm]

I can't get lvl 4 tripods

That I need

It just fails always

[radiant flame]

Buy level 5s

Or wait 🤷🏻‍♂️

[brisk helm]

What's 5s success rate?

4 is like 25%

[orchid willow]

oh u mean these lvl 5's

[brisk helm]

Yup

[orchid willow]

i got all mine set but most are lvl 3

[brisk helm]

Well you only need ones you are using

Others are kinda useless unless you switch

But that barely happens

[lime beacon]

my 5x3 with lvl 4 tripods and lvl 7 gems no lvl 2 set at 1475 does like 40-50m doomsdays with supp

[radiant flame]

Yeah that’s like mine 🤷🏻‍♂️

I have 5s and mostly level 2 and do 70-80m at 1495

[lime beacon]

if doomsday is only doing 10m theres a problem my punishing strikes do like 25mill with supp

[orchid willow]

spec?

[lime beacon]

1602 no bracelet

[orchid willow]

hmm

[lime beacon]

lvl 5 tripods on PS tho

i dont have em on doomsday yet

[orchid willow]

this mines

[radiant flame]

Yeah also looks like you have bad quality

On accessories

[radiant flame]

Your spec should be around 1600-1700 at least with relic

Yeah that’s low

[radiant flame]

You don’t need to screen them all lol

[orchid willow]

rest 30;s

[lime beacon]

yea minimum if you want to go cheapo is prob like 1550

[radiant flame]

Yeah you shouldn’t cheap out on accs

[lime beacon]

but you will prob end up upgrading anyways

[radiant flame]

Because this is what happens

[lime beacon]

you really dont want to skimp quality on earrings

[radiant flame]

Spec is pretty important for igniter

[lime beacon]

you can do like yellow on rings

but you want atleast high blue purp on earr

[radiant flame]

Because it affects how quickly you build gauge and also affects your damage during arcane

You’re missing maybe 7-9% damage from your low spec alone

anyway it all adds up

[lime beacon]

probably more if you factor in the rotation is much slower

[radiant flame]

You shouldn’t compare really

But there are a lot of aspects you can improve on for damage

[lime beacon]

i also dont use CD as my 5th i use adren

your attk power for CD is pretty low

[orchid willow]

hmm

spec can be 300 on a earring

at 100

[lime beacon]

yea and the increase per quality point is higher then it is on a ring

[timber mauve]

Rings are okay to cheap out on. Earrings and necks tho

[orchid willow]

can we increase qual on acc or have ot be lucky to get them/buy from auc?

[lime beacon]

have to get lucky

/buy

[radiant flame]

99.9% of the time buy

You won’t ever drop something you can use

[lime beacon]

and when it does drop you probably already bought one thats similar so you might as well sell it

[lime beacon]

neck isnt as bad if you buy a green and its like one of those greens thats like 490 spec 450 crit

[timber mauve]

Yeah, low qual is fine but cheating out on low spec neck is Painge.

Got a 480ish spec neck at green qual and sold for as much as an 80.
Just takes a bit longer to sell since most people only look at qual, not at stats

[lime beacon]

low spec sorc even feels worse to play cause your igniting way way less

[lime beacon]

yea i bought a green on mine cause i was doing 5 igniter on pieces so greens were all that would pop up but i ended up with a 488 spec 454 neck

for like 65k

[orchid willow]

ye i could be like 1664 with max acc no bracelet

[lime beacon]

yea thats partially why spec classes scale so well because higher spec = more dmg

[lost tartan]

guys can a player who never played lost ark can use the powerpass tomorrow to go to 1340?

[pseudo atlas]

no, because the requirement to get it is to get to punika

[harsh dawn]

Spend $50 to get power pass to use the free power pass

[simple igloo]

Or if they have the time, they can use the story express

[celest fable]

With upcoming changes, I do not think it's worth upgrading anymore? Costs 637 gold

[livid dragon]

so planning to push my sorc and my striker. want him to get the event, but planed before to give it sorc(1415) so shes get some things since i have like 300k frag already. as long as i dont push sorc one ilv i can still change to striker after for the event to give him the honing buff right? hes 1375 btw

[bronze grail]

does anyone know if the new 'Arcturus's touch' that doubles the reward of each gate count double the normal loot but is the extra box also doubled? I can't tell from, the wording on the patch notes

[shut pasture]

They all stack together.

[zenith ginkgo]

how do some people have 2000+ atk power by various atk power effects?

[celest fable]

Yeah but since progression will be way easier I am wondering if 600 gold is worth it

[zenith ginkgo]

where does that come from

[shut pasture]

It is.

[pseudo atlas]

stuff like attack power engravings

[echo owl]

you’re definitely still spending more than 600g post change for a single armor piece to 1415

now apply that sh reduction effect across your whole roster and across all the pieces

[zenith ginkgo]

i checked engragings and nothing directly buffed atk on them

which is why im so confused

they just have 6k more atk than me on the same power level with identical engravings

weapon same level

[livid dragon]

weapon ilv. qualitiy of gloves and shoulders?

[celest fable]

The removal of gold cost for honing makes it kinda easy but maybe I overestimate materials since I have only two t3 chars and I have a lot of materials from events

[pseudo atlas]

quality does not affect attack power so

[celest fable]

So I do not know the real struggle yet ;p

[livid dragon]

u sure?

[pseudo atlas]

could also be food buffs like feast

[celest fable]

Some feasts give a lot..

[pseudo atlas]

yes considering quality affects bonus damage as it says in the tooltip of the weapon

[zenith ginkgo]

that seems like a reasonable explanation

[zenith ginkgo]

removal of hold cost?

golkd

[echo owl]

consider it also reduces the costs of silver / shards which are hidden gates people get aware of later on you go

[pseudo atlas]

it's only silver cost up to 1445 tomorrow

[zenith ginkgo]

woah

wait

thats huge

for one character

[pseudo atlas]

well, silver and mats

[zenith ginkgo]

or all

[celest fable]

agreed but they also nerf gold income

all character

[pseudo atlas]

all, forever

[celest fable]

general change

[zenith ginkgo]

ah...

[celest fable]

they nerf gold gain from oreha + argos and higher

[zenith ginkgo]

how bad

is the nerf

[pseudo atlas]

everything up to and including 1445 was nerfed

just

read the patch notes

[zenith ginkgo]

well i guess silver is gonna be even more scarce and important now

[ripe lantern]

has anyone else gotten this message?

im literally just running lopangs

no vpn or whatever either

[celest fable]

Oreha hard from 2100 to 700

[summer osprey]

hello guyssssss

update tomrrow ?

[shut pasture]

Nothing like autohotkey either?

[ripe lantern]

no

i literally booted my pc 10 min ago with nothing on

just discord and LA

now im too spooked to loggin again

[echo owl]

i mean it’s often a false positive

especially from a fresh boot but you could also try to fish out anything in task manager

anything with files

[shut pasture]

Unless your PC was breached and its detecting something from that but...

[ripe lantern]

yeah im checking through my task manager

[echo owl]

restarting (again)

[ripe lantern]

it's just razor stuff

and rest is system process

[echo owl]

they recently updated stuff

[ripe lantern]

like there's no way i get detected for running the same path for lopang right

[orchid willow]

welp i need 580k gold to max acc

[ripe lantern]

it's weird cause i always get the pop up when im at the terminal area for lopang

otherwise im fine

well it's only been twice so far

[summer osprey]

Update tomorrow for sure ??

Anyone answer me please

[snow glacier]

how do i get this mf some water

[ripe lantern]

the patch notes are up so yes

unless something goes terribly wrong

[echo owl]

is this rowen mokoko seed

[pseudo atlas]

takes 10 seconds to read #announcements

[snow wadi]

any brel5 expert here?

we stagger cubes (hopefully right order) stagger brel

but no gates opening

we just die

[echo owl]

you failed

2 conditions

order was wrong

you did not stagger each thing in order within 3 seconds

[snow wadi]

WITHIN 3 SECONDS?

really?

u made that up

[echo owl]

no

it’s 3 seconds per not total

[shut pasture]

Yes. In the future you can very easily answer this question by simply looking at the #announcements channel in this Discord. It will always be updated when we know patch notes and dates for updates, among other things.

[echo owl]

er

[hexed night]

what does this mean

[echo owl]

you get 3 seconds to stagger the second thing (after successfully staggering first) and then 3 seconds to stagger Brel

basically

[rigid plank]

24 hour timer to customize freely after using a ticket

[hexed night]

ah ok

thats nice you get a ticket lol

[summer osprey]

When patch reaper buff ?

[rigid plank]

this upcoming patch, i would suggest reading the notes yourself

[pseudo atlas]

never read

[summer osprey]

You speak to me ?

[shut pasture]

The patch tomorrow does come with a balance update, which does include buffs to many classes.

[summer osprey]

2 main reaper tell me reaper will get buff next patch

[echo owl]

open the link impossible challenge

[maiden locust]

What time does the patch come out?

[shut pasture]

It gets a small buff. It isn't huge.

[maiden locust]

I genuinely don't know when that time is, I'm fairly new

[summer osprey]

LoL I can see ?

[buoyant herald]

open the patch notes

[shut pasture]

@summer osprey If you want to know what specifically I encourage you to open the link to the patch notes in #announcements and see for yourself what the changes are. The balance updates are near the bottom of the page.

[maiden locust]

Got it, thank you

[shut pasture]

I'm all for providing information, but at some point you gotta learn to ride the bike on your own.

[rose jewel]

@ripe lantern Razer programs have popped up false positives in the past

it was a good 20mins read on everything from the patch notes

at least vykas hm was not nerfed

[buoyant herald]

yet

[rose jewel]

yet

[acoustic orbit]

I wonder what will happen to Argos carries, will they do it at a discount since the gold is nerfed or will Argos carries die out

[rose jewel]

lower demand, because we can now trade on the AH leggo gear

for some fucking reason

instead of the 1302 one

[echo owl]

happy for bots

[rose jewel]

ikr

everything they have made to fuck up players up till now

[acoustic orbit]

Ooh yeah that too, I wonder if people stockpiled the blood, kinda odd that you can buy that gear now

[rose jewel]

down the toilet in 1 update

sorry i mean fuck up bots

[acoustic orbit]

[pseudo atlas]

ain't nobody stockpiled bloods since you could just break them for ghls

[acoustic orbit]

Oh

[rose jewel]

but now its 3 guaranteed instead of yolo 2-3

and empyreans are 2 instead of 1 by dismantling

so thats good

most important update

shift+g is here bois

[zenith ginkgo]

what is shift g

[summer osprey]

Wow

[echo owl]

have you done mokomoko island una daily

or kinsera una daily

you can shift g their asses

[summer osprey]

Sharpshooter gett op buff I think !!

Reaper get buff in hunger

[lament jewel]

Floorshooter's not a real class

They're spectating most of the time

[timber mauve]

If you’ve already done a quest, you can hit that to skip the dialogue.

[clever seal]

Guys, I'm new to the game recently at level 50, I have a doubt, should I use this vern pass? I'm level 50, 295 Item level

[rose jewel]

honestly i'll just let them read patch notes, or just find out tomorrow

North Vern powerpass is used to bring another char instantly to lv50 ilv302

[zenith ginkgo]

you get 2 vern passes for free after finishing the first part of the campaign

2nd one you get in mail after powerpassing the first one

[shut pasture]

Use it on an alt, not your main.

[clever seal]

I see thanks guys

I have a lot of stuff in my inventory that has accumulated since the first day the game was released, including Crystalline Aura which I haven't used until now lol

[zenith ginkgo]

use it on 2 alts

so you have 3 characters at the same power level

[clever seal]

@zenith ginkgo Ok, thank you 😃

[shut pasture]

Well if you're playing more actively I'd say use the Aura, otherwise maybe post a screenshot of your inventory here and we may be able to suss out what you can keep or get rid of.

[rose jewel]

Friendly reminder, last day to convert all event tickets and trade them for silver

[clever seal]

ok ok

let me finish dungeon first

[radiant flame]

My eyes

Delete all those stones

Use all Phoenix plumes and pheon coins

Use all silver coins

Use all card exp

[rose jewel]

use the ticket top right, its either a resking or a powerpass

it expires anyway

[brisk helm]

Damn 100 pheons

[rose jewel]

barely enough for 1 char

[zenith ginkgo]

bro is richer than almost all of us

[sour venture]

can anyone explain this to me?

[zenith ginkgo]

🥲

[clever seal]

thanks guys

[buoyant herald]

which part of it its exactly what it says it is

[sour venture]

whats meant by up to 5 times?

[buoyant herald]

you get double mats for first 5 runs

[rose jewel]

.-.

[sour venture]

oh

[clever seal]

it is vern powerpass

[sour venture]

[rose jewel]

use it

vern powerpass is permanent

and you have to right click it to even use it in the first place

[clever seal]

oh ok

[slate elk]

is there any other way to farm harmony leapstone cause other than chaos dungeon cause the queue is taking too much time

[pseudo atlas]

queue? you just solo chaos dungeons

[rose jewel]

never, ever, matchmake chaos dungeon

[slate elk]

oh i can?

[rose jewel]

also

[pseudo atlas]

but also https://maxroll.gg/lost-ark/resources/road-to-rohendel

[rose jewel]

dont even look at the infinite chaos dungeon shop

there's better ways to spend your time

[slate elk]

then what should i queue xD

[rose jewel]

nothing, read the guide above

[pseudo atlas]

actually

you might consider just waiting a day for the story express event

[rose jewel]

he's t1

and i doubt he wanna redo the whole shit again

even with shift g

[slate elk]

nope

[pseudo atlas]

hmm

[slate elk]

no way

[rose jewel]

see

its a death sentence

[slate elk]

i just wanna play as a machinist and have fun

and try raids aswell but it's too early for that

[rose jewel]

follow the guide above

starting tomorrow we will have a new event shop

use that

[slate elk]

where exactly?

[rose jewel]

tomorrow

wait for tomorrow

[slate elk]

i said where not when xD

[rose jewel]

wait for tomorrow to see it

[slate elk]

oh

mb for assuming then

[rose jewel]

i would be god if i knew the XY positions they will put the npc at

[slate elk]

nah ur helping more than enough xD

[lime beacon]

its the naruni racing event to thats my fav event

[rose jewel]

gather a bit of horizontal stuff in the meantime

follow the guide above

or play another thing, its just 1 day

alternatively make an alt with the north vern powerpass you got

[slate elk]

is the guide hard :>

[rose jewel]

the guide is soft

its made on paper

[slate elk]

[rose jewel]

aint guides supposed to help you and make things easier tho

[slate elk]

believe me i've seen guides that makes things worse

or maybe i don't know how to read

[rose jewel]

competitive pokemon or what

[slate elk]

nah smth about ds2

[rose jewel]

just follow the guide

and ignore the part where it says to clear guardian raids

you dont need to

[slate elk]

gotcha

[slate elk]

what does this mean it's the first time i see it

[rose jewel]

just

read the instructions bro

there's even a cute pic of the npc at the side

[slate elk]

i am trying i promise

xD

[slate elk]

look

[rose jewel]

thats a nice and cute pic of where you shouldnt be looking for the npc

just wondering

you know what a harbor is right?

[slate elk]

okay i found i was looking in the world map

[rose jewel]

👌

just read 2-3 times the thing if you need to

[slate elk]

ohhh

now i get it i put it in east harbor so i can fast travel back to it

[radiant flame]

Sounds ok, but You’re missing like 60-70 from accs/roster

[thorn cave]

looks good to me

[clever seal]

what can i do to get more IL for the quest "find the guardian" that asks for item level 302 to enter?

[thorn cave]

isnt 1700 the baseline including bracelet?

exactly

[radiant flame]

Yeah it’s not bad

Was just saying what you were missing

[thorn cave]

if you’re asking how to get from 250 to 302, you need to hone your gear once each piece

[radiant flame]

People have different ideas of “okay”, but yeah hitting max raid captain is reasonably important

[clever seal]

thanks mate

[thorn cave]

yeah honing is the main way of progressing at this point

[clever seal]

I'm going to do that now... but where exactly? I'm completely noob in this game 😅

[raw smelt]

i completed toryok and got the mokoko challenge "So long Toryok" done but the main quest hasn't updated?

[timber mauve]

Also, if you’re doing that quest for gold it doesn’t give it anymore.

[clever seal]

wdym? it's just to complete game quest

[keen relic]

how important is this for supports compared to los 30?

[timber mauve]

It used to give a decent amount of gold. Some guides aren’t updated and still says it gives gold.

[keen relic]

can i do like akkan w/o it for example

[clever seal]

😮 oh I see

[minor forge]

Does anyone know if honing for 1445+ will be cheaper considering a large amount of the gold income is getting crippled?

[timber mauve]

Read the patch notes

[raw smelt]

oh nvm had to go to trixion

[pseudo atlas]

the finding the arks quest is irrelevant now, just do story quests

[minor forge]

yeah nothing is said for honing post 1445

[timber mauve]

Yeah, just follow the blue world quests. That’s your new main story.

[minor forge]

just until 1445

[pseudo atlas]

if it says nothing about after 1445, then...

[timber mauve]

[minor forge]

yeah so being in a il where vykas/valtan is your only raids, ur gold income is pretty much cripped considering argos and hm valtan is useless

[pseudo atlas]

hm valtan was nerfed by a significant but not massive amount, useless is the wrong word

[kind zealot]

if anyone knows.. for the march 15th punika powerpass event, if I purhcased punika powerpass in one of my alt and complete the quest as states in the event, would that mean I'll get a brand new one from the event?

[minor forge]

4500g -> 3000 pretty significant

[pseudo atlas]

okay

well don't do hm valtan then, it's useless

[timber mauve]

So long as you complete whatever requirements (like a side quest chain) yeah, you’ll get another.

[kind zealot]

sounds nice! thank you

[pseudo atlas]

literally 0 gold

[minor forge]

the time it takes to take valtan hm u can earn more with just doing life skills

[timber mauve]

What

[pseudo atlas]

aw it deleted my laughing

[timber mauve]

I saw that

[pseudo atlas]

to summarize: lmao

[minor forge]

well, making 7k gold in 20min 2 days ago from just selling mats hmmmm

[boreal sentinel]

[keen relic]

oh wait we get 2x relic mats after the maintenance today?

[pseudo atlas]

the average raw gold to tap from 1370 to 1445 is 21k btw, sorry you lost 5k gold a week from content up to that point i guess and can hone significantly faster than before

[minor forge]

its not just up to that point xD

its until u can run vykas clown etc and not run valtan nm/hm or vykas nm

as long as u are in a position where either is 1 of ur 3 raids u lost gold far past 1445

[pseudo atlas]

okay

[lost tartan]

guys its better to put on engravemnet slots a class engraving and other engraving(non-class) or 2 engravings(non-class)?

[orchid willow]

didint know there was a tier 3 tower rewards are nice, i can pick a lvl and skip prev floors and get their item once i beat it

got 1460 gear lvl now

[timber mauve]

That’s not tier 3 tower. That’s thronespire. Tier 3 tower isn’t in our version yet.

[orchid willow]

oh

sounds same like tower tho lol

[amber totem]

same same but different

[orchid willow]

shadespire/fatespire

[maiden locust]

Does maintenance ever end before the announced 4 hrs?
I might not show up for my morning shift

[orchid willow]

thronespire

[pseudo atlas]

yes it sometimes ends early

it also sometimes gets extended

[timber mauve]

16 hour maintenance

[pseudo atlas]

pretty bad idea to take time off for this

[heavy moss]

Hey do people sell chaos gate map slots?

[maiden locust]

big brains take off the day after a major release for basically all mmos that have existed

[pseudo atlas]

brain too big for the skull, cutting off blood flow

[maiden locust]

hone for a bigger skull?

[pseudo atlas]

you're right

[dusk veldt]

For RU are they getting Akkan Normal only or both?

[rose jewel]

how bout asking in the ru chat

get the role

[dusk veldt]

mb lemme go get that

[rose jewel]

i can see the question coming

[orchid willow]

whats better def or reduction and phys or mag?

[rose jewel]

neither

keep hp forever

[maiden locust]

Did they announce express event rewards yet? Im wondering if we get free gems like last time

[keen relic]

we're getting 2x relic mats gain w/ the new patch for all chars right?

[rose jewel]

if its not there, no

if its there, yes

for 5 runs

should be per char

[lost tartan]

is it possible to skip flors on tower on our version?

[orchid willow]

didint work for me

i had to do each floor

45 pain

[pseudo atlas]

thronespire allows you to skip floors because it's a 1time reward for the whole roster, it's not the same as tower

[orchid willow]

i did upto 18, i tried lvl 25 and i lack dps/die quick

[vast oriole]

its normal if you are low ilvl

[orchid willow]

for thronespire?

[pseudo atlas]

yes, it's fairly hard to do floor 25 before iunno 1445 or so

[hollow scroll]

i didnt bother after legendary engraving floor

[pseudo atlas]

iirc the difficulty goes up but you aren't actually gated by ilvl like towers

[radiant flame]

The box of gems is quite useful

[tepid grove]

Hi returning player here, is there any conditions to see the ark pass I level 50 and have cleared punika not sure why it's not showing up

[vast oriole]

not up yet

[tepid grove]

Thank you

[wary lintel]

i must have lvl 1 chara to use story express ?

[sturdy lichen]

you need to do a quest called bervers friend too btw, check a video on where to start it

[rose jewel]

he asked for ark pass

never asked for powerpass

[rose jewel]

correct

[sturdy lichen]

since he said punika thought he meant powerpass mb

[rose jewel]

i mean he could have mixed names

[pseudo atlas]

story express requires a char who hasn't finished "on the border" which is very close to the start of the game

[rose jewel]

every fukin event its called pass or express

[pseudo atlas]

yeah and people should realize that and use the correct names and not make it even harder to differentiate it all

powerpasses are powerpasses and express events have never had the word pass in them

[tepid grove]

Thank you I have completed all of punika and working on south vern and getting the item level for rowen

[wary lintel]

can we keep any pass till aero?

[rose jewel]

hahahaha

no

:3

i wish

you wish

everyone wishes

[pseudo atlas]

should be able to use the powerpass to make a specialist and then wait to choose advanced class until aero?

[rose jewel]

aero will probably has her own

[grizzled tendon]

Anyone know if I use hyper express on west if i can still use another on east? Been wanting to start fresh on west

[pseudo atlas]

aeromancer is pretty far away though

[rose jewel]

3-4 months

[rigid plank]

iirc hyper express is per region

[grizzled tendon]

sweet tyty

[rose jewel]

west is bot land and economy is fucked up

i dont see a reason to start over, unless your ping is much lower or you have friendos

amigos

[grizzled tendon]

friends :)

[rose jewel]

nakamas

k good enuf

[proper girder]

help I can't access my server

[rose jewel]

that error has no real cause nor a real fix, its weird to get it and anoying to get through it

there's a post in the forums static several "fixes", one may work for you

[proper girder]

ill restart my pc then check

[rose jewel]

but from what i remember, some causes may be

[proper girder]

OH

I know

I have my vpn on

[rose jewel]

1- restarting pc, 2- restarting router, 3- using a vpn, 4- wrong region on steam or something like that,

figured

[pseudo atlas]

region is closed does have an official support page post on it

https://www.amazongames.com/en-us/support/lost-ark/articles/region-closed-cant-select

it is basically what signum said

[rose jewel]

well

[pseudo atlas]

didn't know that vpn could cause that too, i guess that's good to know

[rose jewel]

its always the vpn

lots of people trying to play from saturn

[pseudo atlas]

wow way to hate on saturnians

[rose jewel]

im more of a mars person myself

[proper girder]

I just forgot it was on tbf since I usually only use the vpn browser extension but had the app on my pc on

[urban patio]

Hello Guys, anyone knows "Limited Time Gold Event Shop" when will be end ?

[rose jewel]

end of march

[urban patio]

We still have time right ?

[rose jewel]

unless you live in the future

yes

my calendar says its the 14th

[urban patio]

nope im living at past

[raw smelt]

what should i be looking for as a igniter sorceress on these stones that drop from field bosses? are they even worth faceting?

[rose jewel]

youre good then

[urban patio]

if you're lvling it doesnt matter to Tier 3

[rose jewel]

all of those are useless, equip 1 for the hp and forget about it until late game

[pseudo atlas]

facet one for vitality, destroy the rest

[cloud pendant]

saw this in the pach notes

does this only apply to character with express pass or all characters?

[rigid plank]

all characters from now on is my assumption

nothing was said in specific to the express character

[zealous patio]

think oreha mats are gonna increase in price starting tomorrow?

[pseudo atlas]

ask the magic 8 ball

[rose jewel]

all hope is lost

[pseudo atlas]

well shit

[maiden locust]

If my character is already 1445, does this mean I am not eligible to make it my hyper express character?

Even though its not efficient, I'd still like to collect the hyper express mats from the earlier part of the event onto my 1445 to help push to higher ilvls easier

[rose jewel]

still uncertain if 1445 is the last ilv you can get it, if not, well, just pick it on an alt

im lazy to navigate the patch notes

but i think it is

if its 1447+ you're certainly out of luck

[near cove]

psure its like upto 1445 so he might be included

cuz at 1445 theres the final reward

so i suppose people were ment to get to that anyways

[rose jewel]

0% efficient but up to you

i would rather directly without thinking twice put it on an alt at 1340

even more so with the gold nerfs

[pseudo atlas]

pretty sure they also have had this before and you couldn't choose a 1445 char for a 1445 express, but no point wondering when it'll be obvious tomorrow

[near cove]

ye

[rose jewel]

cant wait 12hrs

my life depends on it

[near cove]

same xd

well my entire roster depends on it now considering its the only way im getting gold

[rose jewel]

you still get gold

and everything will lower on price DRASTICALLY (or so i wanna think)

[near cove]

much lower quantity tho but ye

[trim shadow]

you really think books and such will have lower prices ?

[radiant flame]

I mean they will. They did in KR.

[near cove]

defo

[radiant flame]

There will be less gold in the game overall

[near cove]

wait like a week or so people going to be out of gold

and honestly frog might be a very big risk to take

idk if im even gonna do it tmrw

based on the prices ig

cuz now 6k is like all of my alts gold for a week

[radiant flame]

Exactly, combined with frog, also combined with people honing for brel hard

[trim shadow]

i really hope prices are gonna go down, cuz as it is, my whole roster is 1460-, and i was building my main to 5x3 / lvl 7 gems

and it's gonna take forever to do with this much less gold income

if prices stay as they are

[rose jewel]

they will go down

[radiant flame]

BCs I think will tank in price - as whales try to make use of higher gold ratio now

[rose jewel]

how much no idea

[near cove]

We'll just have to wait and see

[rose jewel]

1460 is now the place to park imo

since vykas hard didnt got gold nerfed

[near cove]

cuz west market is drastically diff from kr

ye 1460 is the spot cuz Kung + Vykas hm

[rose jewel]

gotta hone my glaivier now

geez

[near cove]

1460 isnt too bad tho

bout 20k gold i think

[trim shadow]

Yeah + the cost to build 4x3 to be accepted into groups

[rose jewel]

hey, its free for 1 char for 3 months :^)

[radiant flame]

4x3 has barely any cost 🙈

[rose jewel]

if you dont wanna waste your 5k

[near cove]

I mean 4x3's are relatively cheep you usually have it by doing the chaos dungeon itself for a week

[trim shadow]

How ? xD teach me

i spend 8k to 10k to get 4x3

i dunno if i'm doing something wrong

[near cove]

i mean its rng but just keep running your 1445 chaos your bound to get it

[radiant flame]

…you plan your engravings using double purple books for class

8-10k isn’t bad. But you can usually get it for less

But even so that’s not expensive 🤷🏻‍♂️

[near cove]

also dont waste pheons spend a little extra to get endgame accs one by one

[trim shadow]

yeah it's not, i agree

[amber totem]

they are taking gold out of the economy, less gold, less inflation.

[rose jewel]

10k is, at worse, like 2 weeks of your gold income

[trim shadow]

but it adds up for 5 alts

[near cove]

in the end they will all be useful anyways

[rose jewel]

once you have your roster developed

that's 2 chars of 1 week

[amber totem]

so books are likely to drop, leaps and etc will definitely drop

[rose jewel]

or less

[radiant flame]

^

[rose jewel]

no wait its 1 char

actually 1 char out of 6

ultra cheap

[radiant flame]

Like if you had roster of 6 1460+ before this week

You should be making 50-70k raw gold a week

So 🤷🏻‍♂️

[near cove]

50k? how so

[trim shadow]

Okay so basically, for new/returning players, the play would be to invest into honing your alts to 1460 + building 4x3 on them.

[radiant flame]

Argos valtan vykas is over 11k

[pseudo atlas]

argos + valtan hm + vykas hm was 11700g a week

[near cove]

4.5 Vykas 3.5 Valtan 1370 content 1k so 9k each ig ye

[radiant flame]

I said before this week

[near cove]

oh ye

now its little lower

una's gold coming in clutch now

[rose jewel]

una's are just emergency gold

[near cove]

Weekly gold if you are honing / forced to hone to 1460

[main frost]

Im about to get my 4th one tap :3

[trim shadow]

Good luck

[main frost]

well Im not hitting 1460 anytime soon with this luck and gold nerfs

all tries were with books some with boooks + solar

[near cove]

you 1 tapped you wep from 14 to 18?

[pseudo atlas]

1400g removed from oreha hm (2100 to 700)
1700g removed from argos (2700 to 1000)
2100g removed from valtan nm (3300 to 1200)
1700g removed from vykas nm (3300 to 1600)
1500g removed from valtan hm (4500 to 3000)

[main frost]

look artisan energy

[near cove]

oh ye ez 1 taps

[main frost]

I "one tapped" 3 armor pieces like that to +18

[rose jewel]

1445 honing gold removed, chance increased

i mean

valtan hard the new jail

[near cove]

valtan hm did not deserve the nerf honestly

[main frost]

basicly new players are getting 1445 easier but are fucked anyway due to no gold for engravings and honings past that imo

[rose jewel]

everything up to vykas hm in kr got nerfed hard

we just didnt got valtan hm nerfed as hard, and vykas is left untouched, yet

because we're not yet at where kr is for gold generation

[main frost]

so ppl with mains under 1490 are hard nerfed ;-;

[rose jewel]

we will get vykas hm gold nerfed later

probably with akkan

[near cove]

prob with brel honestly

[rose jewel]

if you're under 1490 you dont need as much gold now anyway

its not a lose

everything will be cheaper, and as you progress you will be thankful

as everything will be cheaper, but you will get more natural gold

[near cove]

they might push like a mini update with brel where they give hone buffs to 1460 ig

[rose jewel]

geez

again, 3rd time

[radiant flame]

Man raw gold amount is meaningless when you don’t have the context of gold value

[rose jewel]

Gold up to 1445 is removed, you use silver, honing chance up, shards cost down

[radiant flame]

You think that if they increased argos gold people would be rich?

No people would genuinely be poorer

[rose jewel]

books goes zoom to the sky

[radiant flame]

Because things you buy from the market will be through the roof

[near cove]

wait so people are made to do clown for max profit now 😂

[pseudo atlas]

clown was never the raid you cut out after 1490

[main frost]

my point is that idk if it will affect economy maybe it will maybe not cuz ppl with 1490+ dont really got gold nerfed

[near cove]

People use to just do valtan and vykas hm to like ease the pain

[radiant flame]

But people at that stage need more gold for honing

[main frost]

and pretty much to get to clown raid u need to have 5x3 and it might affect people that are new cuz maybe it will get harder to get books

[near cove]

now they have to go back to that ig

[radiant flame]

Books will be cheaper 🤦‍♂️

How will books stay the same price

The people with stacked rosters already have books

[near cove]

Zrebix in addition to that they are giving loads of books with the event + 1445 there are many ways people get books so more books in eco anyways

[main frost]

yeah but like idk I feel like im getting kinda punished for pittying my gear to +18 this week because I will not have enough gold from -1460 content next week and I cant do better than that ;-;

[rose jewel]

bruh

[main frost]

okay fingers crossed for that

[radiant flame]

Idk man. I guess you can start a new account if you feel like your current character is being “punished”

Were just trying to explain that it’s not all doom

[main frost]

short term it is long term prob not cuz will be easier to get alts to 1445

[rose jewel]

just one thing, always have it in mind, these things are meant for newer players to be able to catch up, and also, dont think that it will get any better from here on

[near cove]

xd either way ur not loosing out on anything cuz +18 was going to be the same either way

[rose jewel]

later hones will be wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy worse

[radiant flame]

We don’t know exactly what will happen but I’m almost 100% certain that things will be cheaper on the market

[main frost]

yeah but on 1460 I have access to vykas hm

[pseudo atlas]

there is a portion of players who are in a bad state due to the gold nerfs, it'd be the people who just honed to the 1445-1460ish place where they spent all the gold that they wouldn't have had to tomorrow and also lose gold

that's just tough luck

[main frost]

yeah im one of them

thats why im complaining cuz im grumpy dude xD

[radiant flame]

You forget that some of us who played from the beginning spent weeks honing between 1340-1370 back in the day

[near cove]

20k poof all my frog rng but idm I think ill manage + i rather have the extra honing mats

[near cove]

Me : looked at rates took a solid 4 month break 😂

[pseudo atlas]

yes but things being better now doesn't mean that it literally doesn't matter that they got kicked in the ass a bit

[main frost]

lets pray that golden grudge book will get price gutted by 66% price

[radiant flame]

If you start an account now you can either buy your way through it or get to 1370 in a week from level 1

[near cove]

not even a week prob even 1 weekend

[radiant flame]

So in hindsight I pretty much wasted what, 2 months of my life? 🥳

[thorn cave]

am i able to play on NAW if i open the game on east coast?

[main frost]

well yeah but earlier u could have fun on lower tiers and play with other ppl

right now its all dead till like 1475

[radiant flame]

Fun?

Lol

[rose jewel]

dead?

lol

[main frost]

I mean atleast u had ppl running around not 50 sorceress named safgfthjarwdfg

[radiant flame]

Yes getting jailed in t1 abyssal was fun

[rose jewel]

you can play on any region in the steam release

[thorn cave]

oh nice, tyvm

[near cove]

oh remember those days and we even had gold costs for the latter hoes it was awful

worst of them all was defo the under water dungeons

[rose jewel]

imagine needing gold for t1 gear for like 13 to 15

[radiant flame]

Final thought is that you can get something other than grudge

[rose jewel]

materials being much more expensive

NOT having 100% chance, instead it was like 30%

[main frost]

not for rainbow roster

[rose jewel]

or 20

[radiant flame]

And not 100%

[rose jewel]

repeat for t2

[radiant flame]

How rainbow

[rose jewel]

then repeat for t3

and then.......

[main frost]

I could go cursed doll but then I dont have adrenaline on reaper

[rose jewel]

THE DEAD ZONE

[main frost]

unless I get 9/7 stone and get 5x3+1

[radiant flame]

Ambush+hit master+ brawler is less than grudge combined

[near cove]

adren is usually only run at 1-2

why 3

[hollow scroll]

1234 12334 is hard

[radiant flame]

Oh god

Please

[gaunt valley]

how much better are rowen's field boss vs TW?

[pseudo atlas]

several classes use adren3

[radiant flame]

Don’t remind

[rose jewel]

i think my dude rebix has all his priorities wrong

and is kinda trippin' a bit

[pseudo atlas]

the fact that it's a pretty good engraving at levels below 3 doesn't mean nobody uses it at level 3

[rose jewel]

and also panicking for no reason

[brave geyser]

worse if you got random summoners firing phoenixes as you afk

[rose jewel]

besides not understanding the bennefits of nerfs

[radiant flame]

Seriously what is your roster

I can guarantee you can use a book other than grudge

[hollow scroll]

back then they were beserkers

[main frost]

hunger reaper, pinnacle glaiver, LC ss, Surge DB, Master summoner, Emperor arcana, barrage artilerist + artist tmrw

[hollow scroll]

[pseudo atlas]

hh intensifies

[radiant flame]

Right so you can go ambush and hit master

[rose jewel]

oh look my alts

[gaunt valley]

oh ok

[tall wren]

Group foto

[radiant flame]

You have 8 alts?

Lol

How are you poor

[main frost]

7 and main yes

[near cove]

its the blue hair for me 😂 Bot owner be like : yes like make out bots distinctly different from the average player

[main frost]

they all 1370!!!!

they got gold gutted tmrw xD

[radiant flame]

Make the glavier a lopang

Get ambush and hit master

Sorted

[main frost]

yeah I was thinking about that

she feels awful

[rose jewel]

she's god like

but

[radiant flame]

Ambush and hit master = 8k or so combined

[rose jewel]

https://tenor.com/view/you-wouldnt-get-it-joker-smoking-gif-15952801

[hollow scroll]

you make zero gold at 1370 anyway

or small amounts

[radiant flame]

You can even use ambush on pinnacle if you are god player

[main frost]

nah dont say that 3 gate argos + oreha hard was a nice chunk of gold

[rose jewel]

was

[pseudo atlas]

at 1370 you would get argos and oreha hard gold which was a few thousand

[rose jewel]

haha

[radiant flame]

But why didn’t you ever hone them smh

[rose jewel]

good ol' times

[main frost]

yeah was

[rose jewel]

coz main not 1460

[main frost]

my main still not 1460 for sh buff?

[rose jewel]

but he did one more alt instead of using resources for main

[radiant flame]

I just

[rose jewel]

those coins could have been 1460 main

[radiant flame]

Don’t know how

When you have 8 characters

[near cove]

3 gate argos + oreah is a shit ton of gold wdym its like a full hm legion raids for like less work

[main frost]

not really I had books + powerpass to 1340

[radiant flame]

You missed the last express completely or what

[main frost]

im playing for a month

[hollow scroll]

has 22 alts at 1370 - why is my main not 1460 yet

[rose jewel]

there is not a single powerpass to 1340 previous to tomorrow

🤔

[radiant flame]

A month but with 8 characters 🤦‍♂️

Ok

[main frost]

7

tmrw gonna be artist so thats 8

[rose jewel]

he just didnt prioritize correctly what he had to do

[hollow scroll]

[radiant flame]

Ok well

[rose jewel]

gold earning is good at that stage

[radiant flame]

Idk 🤷🏻‍♂️

[rose jewel]

but he used all the gold to up alts

[hollow scroll]

focus main and leave alts

[rose jewel]

but now

he doesnt even need gold to hone

[main frost]

I mean it was like 2k gold for the alt from 1300 to 1370

so 2k is like hmm

[near cove]

i mean till this week getting 1370 alts was worth while and i mean still is now even easier

[main frost]

one hone?

[rose jewel]

but still SH research is still good

[hollow scroll]

you spread way too thin trying to keep them even

[radiant flame]

^

Just focus on one char at a time now

[main frost]

I am I just got them to 1370 for argos and oreha golds

[hollow scroll]

especially after 1 month

[main frost]

it was a great choice before today

[near cove]

Best way to progress would be Main to 1460 and 1 week 1 alt to 1445 you wont burn out and it wont be too boring as well

[main frost]

and that one extra character was 2k gold expend maybe not necessary but she making me gems so like she will be useful somehow

[radiant flame]

Getting bussed and paying gold to bussers 🙈

[pseudo atlas]

i mean it's not like they're making no gold now, and you can now hone them higher for more gold without spending any gold

[main frost]

yeah thats true

I wouldnt be pissed if my main was 1460 already

but she isnt cuz 100% artisan on 4 pieces

[hollow scroll]

bussing argos

[swift helm]

how many event mats does the hourly thing give?

[near cove]

you have a +18 wep and u dont have 1460 alr?

[main frost]

1455

missing 2 pieces

[brave geyser]

what are you missing lol

[near cove]

+18 wep was bad idea either way

cuz +19 armor is cheaper

[main frost]

chest and armor

[near cove]

by like a good bit

[radiant flame]

Someone send him some mats to get him out of spiral

[near cove]

Lmao

[main frost]

xD

I need gold man not mats

[radiant flame]

Go fish

[hollow scroll]

reaper main already a self own

[near cove]

go do horizontal

[main frost]

those shards are worth nothing

[brave geyser]

so basically you need 2 hones?

[pseudo atlas]

have you been selling your tradable leapstones

[main frost]

more like 40 with this luck

[radiant flame]

Do plat fields

[main frost]

what I do on plat field

[radiant flame]

Do fishing then

[main frost]

I was trying to save tickets till I get golden charm

[near cove]

You really think he has tickets considering he spent his last month getting 7 1370 alts

[brave geyser]

how much gold do you have right now

[main frost]

461 xD

[near cove]

well that came as a suprise

[hollow scroll]

i pitied 4 to +18 what do you mean luck

[main frost]

I have 4 🙂

[radiant flame]

You can’t plat field without 30 foraging

[main frost]

well I did the same XD

[near cove]

I have 1 ticket and im like excavating frickin 35

[main frost]

im trying to save till I have 48

for that extra 25% on charm

[near cove]

Plat fields are like 5k-7k each time (based on your server) per ticket

[main frost]

with flowers?

on 30 foraging?

[radiant flame]

Not worth smh

[near cove]

ye foraging

but u need lvl 30

[brave geyser]

so you already have like 42k shards, 275 orehas, 15.7k blues and 367 leaps?

[main frost]

I know I know the buff is good

[near cove]

have u been selling you tradeable leaps?

[main frost]

around 120 leapstones shards I even have more than 42k and orehas I have around 300 in sh from fishing ready to collect

[main frost]

50/50

[near cove]

make it 100% /0 its a crap ton more worth while

and if u really need it

[brave geyser]

what server you in for EUC?

[near cove]

buy it from frog for like 18 gold each

[main frost]

Neria

[brave geyser]

oof

[pseudo atlas]

well it's too late for that 'cause mats prices are about to plummet

[near cove]

what why?

[trim shadow]

shouldn't they rise ? Because of people pushing artist ?

[near cove]

people are still gonna need it for honing right

[radiant flame]

Everything is going to drop

[pseudo atlas]

1445 is practically free now

[main frost]

I mean the real honing was starting after 1445 anyway so not much of a change honestly

[near cove]

^^

ye

nobody really buys mats from market till 1445 anyways

[trim shadow]

yeah but people still got 1445 to 1490 to do, which is most of the mats anyway

no ?

[main frost]

^

[pseudo atlas]

it still removes a huge portion of people buying mats

[near cove]

thats what i thought as well ye

[brave geyser]

if you list a lvl 1 gem on the AH for 12k buy price and idk 501 bid price i can help you out

[hollow scroll]

help a homie out

[main frost]

;o

[near cove]

my guy be swimin in that gold

[pseudo atlas]

people buy mats all the time, now fewer people are going to buy fewer mats for the portion up to 1445 because of the honing buff

[near cove]

true but i mean we can always count on the whales right?

[main frost]

🐳

[near cove]

(until bc plumets as well)

aka in 3 hours after update 😂

[fathom lark]

If a friend wants to try the game can he use the pass tomorrow or does he need to play normally up to punika to use it?

[trim shadow]

But there will be more people honing due to the new class, right ?

so that will kinda balance out

[main frost]

punika beavers friend quest have to be done

[pseudo atlas]

yeah there's also a hyper express event making it hyper trivial to hit 1445

[hollow scroll]

they can use story express still that will speedrun them to punika ready for hyper express and pp

[fathom lark]

Ah ok

[brave geyser]

@main frost this yours?

[hollow scroll]

homie dont need no t3 gems

[main frost]

yes!

[main frost]

I was thinking im not gonna be a bitch and trashing his eq with lvl 2 for helping me haha

t2*

[hollow scroll]

[brave geyser]

alright happy honing man gl

[main frost]

Thanks!

btw

should i buy books for honing?

[hollow scroll]

[near cove]

just wait till tmrw right

[hollow scroll]

you wait until tomorrow and do it for free

[near cove]

ur going to prob get a bunch for free

[hollow scroll]

[main frost]

oh okay

what books we gonna get for free

from hyper?

[hollow scroll]

no gold cost and honing rate increases

[brave geyser]

he's 1455

it's free from 1370 - 1445

[hollow scroll]

ohh

[near cove]

you are going to get like selection chests n stuff

like the current event vendor

[main frost]

oh

okay I wait then

[near cove]

he gave u books something like that prob

[hollow scroll]

dont need books

just 1 tap

[brave geyser]

idk if they'll give you books for 16+ onwards

[main frost]

DDD

[brave geyser]

12k should be enough for roughly average chance of honing

since you need to buy like 200 leaps

[near cove]

you never know cuz they did make the average ilvl 1445

[rose jewel]

maybe dont buy anything and just get from event and 1 tap everything

[main frost]

I will wait anyway for tmrw mabye there will be some freebies and will buy leaps from frog

[brave geyser]

ye just wait for frog

[main frost]

1460 today wont give me anything anyway

already did nm vykas this week

[hollow scroll]

[main frost]

was disapionted with my luck

I even got golden grudge and was like hell yeah we getting 1460

well jokes on me

[near cove]

did you sell it?

[main frost]

yes

15k

getting 1460 was more important to me XD

[near cove]

ye good

you'll get 1460 tmrw dw

[hollow scroll]

wasting gold on kermit

[main frost]

kermit?

[vast oriole]

frog

[near cove]

more like rat

[vast oriole]

frog-rat

[near cove]

devs are evil honestly

frog right before gold nerf

How to make player suffer 101 😂

[main frost]

I bought 3 times the shards and leapstones

got none of those fancy coins

fucking scammer that frog

[radiant flame]

You shouldn’t have been buying from frog without excess gold 🙈

[main frost]

I mean I had 80k ready for honings
