[buoyant herald]

what about blade

[nimble gorge]

oh ok so middle

[buoyant herald]

reaper is somewhere around same as sh

[nimble gorge]

its not op or weak

[buoyant herald]

nowhere close to blade

play it if you think its fun

[meager phoenix]

alright, ty!

Can you convert those into the rarer ones?

[maiden locust]

how about aeromancer? in terms of dps? is it doing good ?

[junior island]

I just want to double and triple check - I know a lot of express/pass features will skip content for you to progress a character more quickly. Story Express only grants you bonus reward while you play through the story normally, right? It doesn't have you skip anything, even stuff most people would deem unimportant, right?

[buoyant herald]

no

[timber mauve]

No

[meager phoenix]

okee rip

[buoyant herald]

its not out in eu/na yet but yeah aeromancer is top tier

[maiden locust]

o

[timber mauve]

It gives you pre honed gear for t1-3 to up 1340 ilvl so you don’t have to do islands and shit. Pretty nice.

[junior island]

Like obviously it will help skip some grinding due to bonus rewards, but it doesn't bypass any sort of story or other quests, right?

[junior island]

Oh, okay, thanks!

[uncut dagger]

Guys I have 116 total Brelshaza horns. So, should I get 2 armor pieces and do honing to 1500 and get the 3rd piece after g3+4 or get the weapon for dps boost and try to do honing on it till 1500 if lucky (I'm 1490 atm)

[buoyant herald]

why would you wait and not craft armors

just do armors

wep honing is crazy expensive

[bleak elk]

if you are chasing ilvl to unlock more content , armors first weapon last

if you dont care about unlocking further content and just want bigger numbers then do weapon

[uncut dagger]

I see

[buoyant herald]

you gonna gain more damage from armor levels than wep since you wont be able to push it as far

[uncut dagger]

so get all the armor gear and the weapon lastly ?

[buoyant herald]

yes

[brisk helm]

Hi

[uncut dagger]

got it thanks guys ❤️

[bleak elk]

i know people who camped at 1510 with a +20 brel weap and didnt do g5-6 untill like week 7
dont ask me why i dont know

[brisk helm]

So I kinda fkd up my relic I mixed up my pala and soulfist nd crafted yearning on both 😂 now I need different on my soulfist is there a way to switch it or did I just waste mats

I saw in video that if you hv 5 pieces you can change it

[somber jewel]

once you get 55 horn and wings

[brisk helm]

Is it still a thing

[somber jewel]

you can switch betwwen them at wil

[brisk helm]

Ok so I can

[bleak elk]

you unlock gear conversion once the character has acquired more than 55 vykas wings / valtan bones each

[brisk helm]

Hmm so you telling me I can just farm valtan hm and get 55 and just switch to any gear?

[buoyant herald]

valtan and vykas
You dont need to have them

[brisk helm]

Cus valtan ik all pattern vykas I am still learning

[buoyant herald]

its cumulative you just have to get the stuff

[bleak elk]

https://puu.sh/JC7fJ/39c4f285a2.mp4

[buoyant herald]

^

just need BOTH 55 valtan bones and 55 vykas wings

[bleak elk]

it doesnt cost 55 to convert

[brisk helm]

Wait it has to be same set?

[bleak elk]

you just need to have gotten 55 total of both

and you can convert to whatever you want

[brisk helm]

Or it can be different pieces of relic gear

[stoic island]

Youc an check whatever ones you want to switch

[bleak elk]

converting will convert the entire set

so it doesnt matter

[mellow owl]

Hi, on Kakul raid legion boss, why we die same if we look the good side/clown and not too near of it ? It happen randomly sometime, prob something we don't know

[brisk helm]

Kinda got it but still not sure lol

[bleak elk]

gate 1?

[mellow owl]

Yup sorry

[brisk helm]

Do you need 55 mats in inventory or you just need full relic gear

[bleak elk]

i assume you are turning your character with an auto attack?

[timber mauve]

Cumulative mats

[brisk helm]

I guess that should be question

[mellow owl]

Yep and look the good one obviously

[bleak elk]

lag/desync causes auto attack to bug out sometimes

use movement instead

to turn your char

[brisk helm]

Why does it need mats if it dsnt use to convert

[bleak elk]

@brisk helmyou need to have acquired a total of 55 of each valtan/vykas material

you dont need to have them in your inventory

the character just needs to have gotten 55 of each before

you can do unlimited conversions once you get 55 of each

[brisk helm]

Ya so that's like full relic set right

Crafting wise

[buoyant herald]

no

some pieces use vykas mats some use valtan mats

[bleak elk]

it can be more or less than a full set depending on what pieces you require

for your set

[brisk helm]

Ok so basically

[graceful ledge]

does story express give u honing mats btw? i only see honing mats after i finish the whole thing

[brisk helm]

What I am tryna get to is some pieces need valtan mats some need vykas I can do valtan ez cus I learned all mechs so can I craft full relic set of different pieces with valtan mats and when I hv full set then change it to one

[bleak elk]

yes you can

[dreamy bluff]

is their a way to make challenge guardian to give me greater leaps instead of brel leaps?

[buoyant herald]

you still need t oget 55 vykas wings

[bleak elk]

@brisk helmhttps://puu.sh/JC7i5/a09cd99bad.png

[brisk helm]

Like I craft 2 yearning 2 dominion 2 hallucination and then convert to one

Ah I need both

[bleak elk]

we have been saying that all along

[brisk helm]

Well that's gonna take longer then

[dreamy bluff]

Valtan and Vykas hard gives 24 each total. 29 if you buy the chest at the end

[bleak elk]

i believe its based on the highest ilvl char on your roster, so no i dont think so?

[brisk helm]

Need to learn vykas fully

[buoyant herald]

better get started

[brisk helm]

Already did lol

[buoyant herald]

[brisk helm]

Did some g1 runs today

But it burns gold cus potions bombs etc

[dreamy bluff]

what potions are you using?

oh

[brisk helm]

Blue for learning

[dreamy bluff]

thought you were gonna say purple or something lol

[bleak elk]

youll get the hang of it, all of vykas patterns are relatively easy to read

[brisk helm]

Nah I learned that from valtan lol

[dreamy bluff]

that would run you dry fast

[brisk helm]

Vykas normal patterns ez it just has lot of wipe mech

[bleak elk]

memory orbs are pretty easy

you just gotta get the pathing right for the colored towers

[dreamy bluff]

gate 1 vykas is harder then gate 2 so you should have an easier time learning that one

[brisk helm]

We got to like 25 hp bar today

[graceful ledge]

g1 took me longer than g2 and 3 combined

lol

[bleak elk]

g1 is very straightforward once you get the hang of it

theres not alot of randomness that fucks you unlike clown

[brisk helm]

In normal time stop comes in clutch but ik in hard can't use it

[graceful ledge]

im just talking aboaut my first clear

[bleak elk]

i mean tbh i sometimes struggle on colored towers when doing vykas hard too nowadays

mainly because i dont run g1 hard often since i bus vykas on all my chars

[brisk helm]

Well rn bus not really worth atleast on normal since if I open all box

People doing like 2k runs

[heady zealot]

for an artist using the engravings support, what other engravings should i use for chaos dungeon?

I have pre-emptive strike and contender rn, but what else

[lavish grove]

[brisk helm]

But you only get 1600 gold and then I'll hv to open all boxes too

So I'll be paying 1300 extra

[bleak elk]

kbw / maybe the dps class engraving?

[somber jewel]

you don't need it

contender/ps are enough

[heady zealot]

kbw > cursed doll?

[somber jewel]

it doesnt matter

[heady zealot]

just want to maximise dmg xd

ik it doesnt matter

i want the big dmg number 🙂

[bleak elk]

i never did the math for it but i just run kbw preemptive contender on all my classes chaos dungeon builds

[somber jewel]

just choose something and don't overthink this

[bleak elk]

along with betrayal set its enough for the electrode ether to 1 shot trash

[shut pasture]

If you want big damage numbers you're playing the wrong class

[heady zealot]

it's not a big deal, just want to maximise for fun

just for chaos dungeon

[somber jewel]

i mean chaos dungeons are chores really

[dreamy bluff]

ive always wondered this. pre-emptive requires you to be full hp for the buff to work right? how do you stay full hp in chaos with all those canon guys shooting at you?

[bleak elk]

it requires the mob to be full hp

not you

[dreamy bluff]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[bleak elk]

tldr of preemptive chaos dungeon builds

take less multihit skills

focus more on big dmg single or double hit skills

[dreamy bluff]

i read this as when attacking while having full hp. small brain moment

[bleak elk]

nop its the target

Most of my char chaos dungeon builds are just 1 book and 1 accessory swapped to get preemp lvl 3

[quaint terrace]

In guilds, does it matter if I get 150/150 or 800/150?

[solar grail]

Hey, some tech guy there? I wanna know if I can increase fps in lost ark. I have strong GPU RTX 3060 12gb which can make up to 130-140fps but I have bottleneck on CPU and in certain situations I got CPU overloaded and it decrease the fps sometimes to 40-50. Some tips to smooth it up? Maybe turn off some load from CPU? In past days I had low graphics on everything but I had like 50-65fps now everything is on very high and it got better bcs some of the load move from CPU to GPU but is there something in settings or in PC what could reliev the CPU more? Thanks for any tips!

[rose jewel]

i believe the more you collect, the more is distributed to the whole people who got 150

[cedar shore]

is there a way to equip gems without completing yorn?

[rose jewel]

no

you HAVE to finish yorn either manually or via a KT cheese

but it has to be completed

[bleak elk]

Incorrect

[rose jewel]

mind explaining then

so i can learn

[pseudo atlas]

the contribution itself isn't important past the max, it's doing enough guild tasks to reach a bloodstone milestone

[regal lintel]

what does story express do exactly?

[pseudo atlas]

you just happen to get a bunch of contribution for doing those

[timber mauve]

Gives you rewards and such for manually completing the story.

[timber mauve]

Importantly, it gives pre honed t1-3 gear (up to 1340) so you don’t have to do islands and shit.

[regal lintel]

can i grow faster that way?

i want to create a new class

[somber jewel]

ilvl yes

but you'll still need to do islands for roster level and souls

[bleak elk]

There are two parts to contribution, minimum & contribution goal
Hitting the goal will give you the same amount as other people who also hit the goal, hitting min contri will give you a percentage. im not sure about the math pertaining to the percentage but if the goal is set to 150, two people who get 500 / 800 contribution will get the same amount of bloodstones from weekly payout whereas someone who only got 120 would get less than the the earlier two

[regal lintel]

what souls

[somber jewel]

Island Souls

They're a collectable item

[shut pasture]

Island Souls/Island Tokens, they are a collectible that are fairly necessary to get 20 of because you get a Skill Point Potion from it.

That Skill Point Potion will give 3 skill points to every character on your Roster

There are several other horizontal progression things, like other collectibles and activities, that you'll want to do at some point in the future as well that will provide similarly beneficial rewards.

[regal lintel]

allright thank you

[bleak elk]

no, however doing more actions will contribute extra personal/guild bloodstones which in turn increases the amount you get from weekly payout aswell

[timber mauve]

I'm free @rose jewel

[zenith ginkgo]

jesus

how long did that take

[timber mauve]

A couple days

[zenith ginkgo]

that fast?

rlly

[buoyant herald]

a couple of days at 10h a day isnt fast XD

[strange crescent]

does challenge guardian item level matters in reward wise? i heard they give highchance of accesories with chararter engraving in it

[buoyant herald]

yes ilvl matters

caps out at 1490 right now for best reward

[rose jewel]

now go to euw and do the same

[strange crescent]

i see thanks!

[bleak elk]

@timber mauvetime for adventure to russia/taiwan

[graceful ledge]

how do u get mats for t1-2 btw it only gives u the gear right

[timber mauve]

It gives you pre honed gear.

[hollow scroll]

but i want to hone

[lusty moat]

can someone explain to me what does 5-1/5-2 position dibs etc numbers work in Vykas Gate 2 i know the positions but idk what and where the numbers go to

[bleak elk]

the first number is clock position
second number is order of which you are soaking the black orbs

so if you call 5-2 and the orbs at 5 oclock position are 1 4 5 then you would be taking orb #4

and flex player would be taking #5

[lusty moat]

i seee thanks alot

[graceful ledge]

huh wdym pre honed gear?

[bleak elk]

i assume it gives you +15 gear

[buoyant herald]

you dont need to hone when you are doing the story express

[graceful ledge]

eh?

[hollow scroll]

you get gear to meet the ilvl requirement for each continent

[gaunt prism]

how can i get rid of the starter gear? i can't dismantle it, i can't throw it away, wtf?

[hollow scroll]

sell it to general merchant

[gaunt prism]

thank you

[rose jewel]

tldr

beat shoshure, here's your 460 ilv armor

beat ruhendul, here's your 600ilv armor (i think)

beat yornhub, here's your 960 ivl armor

beat faiton, here's your 1100 armor

beat lailai, here's 1340 (i think, 1302 or 1340 idk)

or something

[cerulean apex]

how long on average is Rowen quest ?

questioning if I should do it today or leave it for tomorrow

[buoyant herald]

pretty fast

[hollow scroll]

few hours at most

[buoyant herald]

like under 2 hours if you go max speed

[cerulean apex]

Alright, guess i'm not sleeping

[buoyant herald]

just sleep do it tmr

no reason to rush

[hollow scroll]

gotta do everything now

[rose jewel]

MY FOMO AHHHHHH

[hollow scroll]

i got bored of rowen after a few days and went back home to vern

[pseudo atlas]

love to fomo

[cerulean apex]

each to their own i guess

[rose jewel]

i mean

i havent touched rowen once since it came

not even on main

fk that

[cerulean apex]

why

[rose jewel]

why would i do it

pvp sux ass

my chars are lv60

i dont need card packs coz i would get pure shit anyway

and im not in a rush for igneas

ill do it in like a month or smt

if at all

[gaunt prism]

is it more important to equip a purple equip over blue or the right substat?

[rose jewel]

purple with expertise or blue with swiftness

answer is a lil bit obvious

unless you meant something different

[crystal zephyr]

is challenge guardian Achates something I need to recruit using party finder? tried matching and failed 4-5 times already

[gaunt prism]

i mean like, accessories

[rose jewel]

that's exactly what im listing

[pseudo atlas]

if you don't have the right substat equipped you might as well not have anything equipped

[rose jewel]

correct combat stats is always a priority COMBINED with the right engravings

if you have an hyper expressed char, for 3 months you can ignore engraves

but you never, ever equip bad combat stats, that's just kinda trolling, its useless

a 5x3 with all the wrong combat stats will potentially do way less damage than someone 3x3 or so with the right combat stats

[strange crescent]

when you do argos g1 on 3x spot mech how does system deicide who to kill

[rose jewel]

you mean

after the safe spots, while on the safe spots or...

[strange crescent]

the safe spot mech

[rose jewel]

you just go to your spot and thats it

[pseudo atlas]

do you mean if people are in the same safe spot

[rose jewel]

anyone can go to any safe spot

but 1 per person

[strange crescent]

while safe spot is for one people who gets killed one that was in the circle or one that got it after?

yeah 2 people in safe spot who dies?

[rose jewel]

usually* the one who goes in first is safe

sometimes the game goes full pepega and kills the one who went late, or sometimes it doesnt kill anyone

[pseudo atlas]

i just assumed dice roll, it's not important enough to care about

[gaunt prism]

i have 373 gear score, is doing the low guardian raids & chaos dungeons the fastest way to get better gear? or is there something i'm missing?

[rose jewel]

as kaiki said, its literally not important

you should do the mech with 1 person per spot

hmm

[rose jewel]

you never used the story express?

[strange crescent]

want to test it out lol

[gaunt prism]

what's that?

[strange crescent]

ty tho

[rose jewel]

clearly not

[jolly elm]

how much % dmg is the gain from a skill that states "back attack"

[hollow scroll]

ive had the opposite

[whole crane]

I just reached tier 3, and I have material to upgrade to 1370, is it advisable to do that?

[rose jewel]

is that your very first char i assume?

[hollow scroll]

even today

[gaunt prism]

no my 2nd, i'm returning and i had another one who i manually leveled, this one i boosted to 50

[rose jewel]

hmmmm

well

what ilv was the other one

[maiden locust]

Question about the event quest, how does one start on it?
My characters are both 50 and below ilvl 1340-1445

[rose jewel]

like this new one is 373, but the other was was...?

[rose jewel]

there are several events right now

but 2 that requires ilvs, story and hyper

which one

[whole crane]

?

[maiden locust]

Oh I'm talking about this

[rose jewel]

take it easy people, hard to answer several ones at once

[maiden locust]

sorry didn't mean to bumbard

[rose jewel]

hyper require you to be between 1340 and 1442.5

if you are 1445 or above you cant participate

[rose jewel]

yes you should, that's how you push forward on ilv, its mandatory

[maiden locust]

oh gotcha

one more thing, whats story express ?

[hollow scroll]

for new players fresh off the boat

[maiden locust]

ah gotcha

[whole crane]

Thanks

[rose jewel]

you should be following this guide if you didnt already, it gives you most, if not all mats required to hone from t1 to t3 in a flash https://maxroll.gg/lost-ark/resources/road-to-rohendel

another way to boost your char without any worry in the world (once) is the punika powerpass event we have right now

instant tier 3 alt char

[hasty rover]

Guys what am I supposed to do as soon as I hit 50? it seems like no one ever q's up foir anything so how am i supposed to get better gear and get stronger?

[rose jewel]

well

first

sadly, early content is beyond dead, that's a given and its around the globe, doesnt matter what server or region you are in, tier 1 and tier 2 (early game) is a desert

second

guardian raids are not mandatory for you to push those early levels

thirds

chaos dungeon is better done solo, always, no questions

4th

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

[hollow scroll]

prideholm has quite a few real players depending on the time and might see one or two in starting areas

but thats not even t1

[rose jewel]

if you follow this guide (after beating north vern / shushire) you will get most, if not all the mats you need to push thru ALL early game stuff

its a 1 time per server thing so

also

if you never picked up the story express, that thing literally gave you all the armor you need to reach the next continent

you didnt even need to hone (upgrade armors) a single time

[gaunt prism]

thanks a lot!

[rose jewel]

since you're past that already and cant pick up story express anymore, follow the posted guide above

after your first char, you have many ways of boosting your alts without needing to farm much, if at all

called power passes / knowledge transfers (2 dif. things)

but that's just early game, every human player is at end game so you just struggle early on

and sg made it way way easier to reach endgame over the patches

but that's another topic on its own

and i bet the dude im answering to fell asleep or yeeted already

https://tenor.com/view/anime-tears-cry-emotional-elcea-de-rux-ima-gif-16851479

[maiden locust]

you did a lot 🙂 you're awesome

[hollow scroll]

i was joking when i said real players in starting areas

its been a while my berserker bot friends

[pseudo atlas]

hey it's my good buddy Gguqdpdudguvc

[buoyant herald]

did you seriously type that out

[rose jewel]

99% chance he typed whatever came to his mind and actually nailed it

that's how you name a bot

👌

[rich leaf]

does infinite chaos dungeon drop boss rush tickets or u need resonance aura

[shut pasture]

No. Needs to be done with energy, or resonance I guess

[ripe ivy]

what does this mean?

[bleak elk]

means you havent done that content for the day yet

or in the case of adventure islands there are two sets on sat/sun

you can get 1 reward from each set

[dreamy bluff]

what can you trade the chaos gate shards for? i completly forgot

its been almost a year since i touched that merchant

[pseudo atlas]

you mean rift pieces?

just buys more maps

[dreamy bluff]

ya

thats it?

[pseudo atlas]

pretty sure that's all

[dreamy bluff]

dammit. tought i could get some rush tickets, rip

[ripe ivy]

ah okay thanks

[rich leaf]

ye lol it gives u a lot of gold esp the leg map

[dreamy bluff]

gold? you mean after i sell the stuff that drops?

[ripe ivy]

do i have to go to the same island again? or just any adventurer one is fine

[dreamy bluff]

or like actual gold drop

[rich leaf]

after u sell

[dreamy bluff]

any

[rich leaf]

its unbound pouches

[ripe ivy]

alright cool

[dreamy bluff]

oh those. i have hundreds of those locked up in my storage. havent really sold any of them

[rich leaf]

those are tradable?

[dreamy bluff]

yep

lol

ive only been using bound ones and just save the tradable mats

[rich leaf]

well what are u saving the tradable mats for ._.

people usually sell them

[dreamy bluff]

idk, i just never sold them. i know i can but just never did it

i always think that i might need them so i dont sell, then i end up never needing them

[shut pasture]

You realize those large pouches are like a good few hundred gold, right?

[rich leaf]

the purp ones are 565 gold in naw

[dreamy bluff]

its like 2-300k gold last time i checked

[rich leaf]

its getting cheaper by the day

[shut pasture]

If you're not going to use them...you're literally just sitting on an actual mountain of gold being completely unused

[bleak moon]

what is best EUC Server? (populated i mean)

[dreamy bluff]

i know i will sell them. but i keep thinking that one day im gonna hone and i wont have shards. i dont like buying mats from the marketplace. i only use mats i get myself or craft myself

will probably have to now though. im running out of fish

only think i ever bought was fishing mats to craft oreha stones and guardian stones when they are 1g

[shut pasture]

Then just don't buy mats from the marketplace

[rich leaf]

plus with your rift pieces u can get a few leg maps, they give like about 7k gold per map

[shut pasture]

If you run out of shards you run out of shards, unless you're rage honing...which you shouldn't do, you shouldn't feel like you need to hold onto some rainy day fund when they can very clearly be put to better use

[dreamy bluff]

i dont think ive ever rage hone. if my char is at a good level i just hone my alts. i still havent run out of shards yet. ive gotten close but i just stop when that happens.

i will sell them if my gold ever get low though. i just have a hording tendency

[rich leaf]

if you dont wnna sell it then its fine, but theoretically its more profitable to sell them since prices go down day by day. you do you buddy

its like getting a brand new car, the moment you use it the value goes down already

[buoyant herald]

really should start getting map boxes 😄 can only get 1 weekly

[rich leaf]

ok maybe a bad analogy but i tried

[dreamy bluff]

oh wait, only 1? that i didnt know. thought i could just stock buy them that why i never paid attention to that merchant

[rich leaf]

one legendary,epic,rare chest a week

[buoyant herald]

yea that

[rich leaf]

leg chest can give epic or leg map

not guaranteed leg

[buoyant herald]

yea

[dreamy bluff]

...dammit, just wasted it on a punnika map. forgot merchant map is region based. and its a legendary one too.

[buoyant herald]

think you can use it to upgrade a south vern epic to legendary with 100%

make it sv that way

[dreamy bluff]

guess ill do that then. was honning in punnika and just impulse bought it

[buoyant herald]

i mean

with that amount of rift pieces it doesnt even matter

[obsidian edge]

once I reach 1460 on bard, should I start crafting relic gear or just keep honing the legendary set?

[rich leaf]

uh u can start

[buoyant herald]

you should craft relic gear as soon as you have the mats

[obsidian edge]

I see, there are a lot of options so I'm a little lost

I can't craft any 1390 ones tho

[rich leaf]

also keep in mind about the set effects, it breaks if u change gears

[obsidian edge]

ah I see, so I need to do a full set of 6?

[buoyant herald]

you need to be 1490 to craft those yes

[obsidian edge]

ok

do you have any recommendation for which set I should aim for?

[rich leaf]

what class

[buoyant herald]

yearning

[obsidian edge]

bard

[rich leaf]

yearning

[obsidian edge]

so the one that's called swamp of yearning?

[rich leaf]

yeah

[obsidian edge]

alright, thanks so much!

[rich leaf]

i suggest getting 2 pieces first so u get to keep the 4-set buff from ur leg gear

[dreamy bluff]

you can start crafting relic at 1445 as long as you have the mats. you wont lose anything. its a 1 to 1 transfer when you gear transfer for relic

[obsidian edge]

ah ok, will do that

thanks 😄

[dreamy bluff]

yea just transfer the gears that you arent honing on at the moment since you will lose the gear xp if you transfer it while it has xp on it

[daring carbon]

which islands give honor shards? and is there other ways of getting honor shards aside from dailies + chaos + guild shops?

[rich leaf]

merchant ship, chaos line exchange, chaos gate exchange

uh anguished maybe? i forgot

or u can wait 8 hrs for reset for this

[hollow scroll]

event exchanges

[lime beacon]

im gonna assume the right is better then the left

(for artist)

[swift arrow]

I got dc on g2 Valtan and when connect boss dead, dont get rewars and g2 have no cleared but when I try join to raid on g2, game show "entry requirements not met cannot entery count"?

[lime beacon]

you will get a refund ticket

[swift arrow]

so game think I clear g2 but dont?

[lime beacon]

in 24 hours or less

[swift arrow]

ok

thx

[lime beacon]

sometimes its less ive gotten them within minutes in my mailk

[swift arrow]

waiting for mail?

[lime beacon]

yea sometimes it takes longer for them to send the refund ticket for some reason to your inbox, ive gotten it like right after i come back and other times ive had to wait an entire day

[haughty nymph]

this is free now or what

[buoyant herald]

for 24h after you make a character yes

you can always enter the reskin for free just after 24h you have to buy a ticket if you wanna apply the results

[haughty nymph]

ty

[karmic tree]

when u reach 1490 does xfering to brel gear lower the + like it did before

[pseudo atlas]

yes

[hollow scroll]

fr?

[buoyant herald]

yea

[karmic tree]

to where?

[rich leaf]

ye lol

[pseudo atlas]

there's a chart in #info-dump somewhere, it's not really all that important though

[dreamy bluff]

i think 1490 becomes a +12 with 10% honing chance

instead of the 3% u needed to get to 1490

its either 10 or 15%. i think its 10

@karmic tree

[hasty rover]

im stuck on some random fucking ship. How do i leave it and set sail?

part of the vern quest line

[dreamy bluff]

ssong of escape

only way to get of

[hasty rover]

thank u

[mental laurel]

So how do I dismantle argos bloods now that it's in a resource tab? Need my leapstones

[hasty rover]

is there a "most played class" leaderboard ?

[dreamy bluff]

go to abyss merchant in punnika

not sure if vern merchant can trade it but Feiton merchant cant trade them

[mental laurel]

Ty boss, I'll try that later

[dreamy bluff]

i know korea has a youtuber that makes videos every few months that tells you. but NA doesnt really have that

even if we had an official one, it wouldnt be accurate with all the bots making mostly zerks and sorcs

[soft quail]

Is it better value to use the event books to get to 1460 or save them for the later hones

[dreamy bluff]

im not sure. maybe using them to push to 1475 wouldnt be bad. not sure about 1460.
also dont forget to buy honing books from the naruni racing merchant. if you really want to do Vykas this week though, then i would use them

[gaunt prism]

can i change that the loot that i drop is not shown right on my character? i want it on the corner somewhere, the normal setting really annoys me

[scarlet oxide]

how much overall gold u get from clown g1-3?

[rigid plank]

4500 last i remember without buying bonus boxes

buying them gets you to 1400

[timber mauve]

You can make it smaller and stuff, but not move it.

[gaunt prism]

oof

[dire arch]

This is not in the game yet right?

[rigid plank]

correct, not obtainable yet in game

[marsh fog]

Would it be a good idea to try lost ark rn? I'm not playing any other mmo, and im just looking for something casual I can play sometimes. Also, I plan to play gunlancer

[cloud pendant]

What's the best spot to park alts at?

1415 or 1445?

[gentle hearth]

ive got a roster bound ava set that is class bound, why cant i put it into the roster skin storage?

is it because of the 3 day trade restriction clause

[minor warren]

Yes

[gentle hearth]

oh good to know

[timber mauve]

This is a fantastic time to start. New class release and a ton of events made specifically for new players for the new class, or whatever class they choose.

[prisma tiger]

hello !! , im new to lost ark and i just tried "Guardian Raid", is there a way to show the hp bar or im just bugged ?

[timber mauve]

Nah, it’s not supposed to have one.

[prisma tiger]

ahh thank you !!

[placid slate]

What is the best dps class for pve rn?

[timber mauve]

All classes are kept fairly close in performance. Choose what you like. Though, the highest burst dps classes are arcana, deathblade, and sorceress as of now.

[placid slate]

Tyvm!

[cerulean apex]

berserk does good burst too

[timber mauve]

It most definitely doesn’t come close to any of those three I listed, but it’s a good class, yes.

[cerulean apex]

idk man, i've seen some bers tech guys doing some good damage

wouldn't say it doesn't come close

[timber mauve]

Good damage yes, but not arcana or igniter burst.

[graceful ledge]

i can skip awakening skill questline on story express right?

surely?

[polar valve]

I used the express story skip thinking it would let me skip the leveling story but it doesn't seem it does. Is there a way to move it to a char I actually wouldn't mind leveling the slow way?

[pseudo atlas]

punika powerpass skips the awakening quest chain and you only have to do it on one character, story express doesn't do it or skip it for you

[graceful ledge]

well i already completed the questchain on all my charas

so i wonder if i can just go to trixion

and get it?

[pseudo atlas]

sure

[graceful ledge]

im just asking if i can skip it without missing any rewards from story express

[timber mauve]

No, you cannot move it.

[polar valve]

Unfortunate. So I'd need to go through the story on them, then do express, then that would like up my account ilevel to 1350 or whatever, and then I could powerpass someone I actually wanna play to be 1350?

[timber mauve]

Well, 1340 but yeah.

[polar valve]

Cool, wasn't sure if it worked that way.

[timber mauve]

What rewards are you referring to from the story express?

All engravings are roster wide.

[near cove]

Ancient accs from brel would be 1520 tradeable right ?

[rose jewel]

40

[daring carbon]

What are the islands that are essential to go to at t3 other than anguish?

[strange crescent]

is exchange rate for gold to royal crystal keep falling? it use to be more gold but now its less

[near cove]

some islands like tooki have giants hearts on em

atlas

blackfang den i think is one

[daring carbon]

anything with honing materials?

theyre the main thing im stuck on

[near cove]

have you use the event vendor ?

used*

[daring carbon]

yes

[near cove]

i dont think there any any t3 islands that reward honing mats

[daring carbon]

damn

[near cove]

but you usually dont get stuck what ilvl are you?

[daring carbon]

1306

funny thing, i have 1 piece of gear t2

so i cant do much about it till tomorrow

[fierce hill]

oof, missing 1 piece from chaos

[daring carbon]

and i just want enough honing so i can get my last piece to +10 and then go finish some more stuff

[daring carbon]

yea 😦

[near cove]

+10 is ilvl?

on that piece i dont remeber how 1302 scales anymore 1400's give me nightmares now

[daring carbon]

i have 1306 ilvl, +15 t2 item, and +11 other t3 gear

if i dont get the last piece tomorrow im quitting the game

[near cove]

you will dw xd

or by any chance did you use your aura of resonance they gave with maintanace ?

[daring carbon]

yea, i did

thats why im not stuck at 2 t2 armor lol

[near cove]

xd

[fierce hill]

xd

[near cove]

but there are tons of soruces of honor leaps u should'nt really be stuck at all

try doing una's tasks as well

boss rush

[daring carbon]

not stuck on leapstones, i have 200, im stuck on shards

[near cove]

they all give loads

ahh yes shards the pain

you have ark pass unlocked right?

[daring carbon]

no

no money :(

[near cove]

no i mean the free one

[daring carbon]

oh

yea

[near cove]

i think lvl 6 gives like 10k honor shards

or 7 which honestly isnt too hard to get

[fierce hill]

u can also try to do hard mode of the 2 dungeons in punika

[near cove]

and then there is the chaos vendor

[fierce hill]

they give some mats

[timber mauve]

I’d quit now. If you think this is bad… oh boy.

[near cove]

wait hes 1306

he does not have access

[fierce hill]

i mean those 2 story dungeons

pretty sure he can do them

[near cove]

Oh ye

those are repeatable

[daring carbon]

does the game have you finish those dungeons as part of the storyline? or is it something you should go back to

[timber mauve]

It has you complete one difficulty. The hard mode of those give shards.

[near cove]

^^

[daring carbon]

if i already did the hard mode of those dungeons during the storyline can i still get the rewards?

[fierce hill]

if u did hard during story, normal should still give awards

[timber mauve]

No, not on that character at least.

[near cove]

also if you have the time and really want the shards you can also do endless chaos dungeon and buy the bags

[fierce hill]

[near cove]

and you also have access to t3 merchant ships 5k per week for free

[daring carbon]

aight, thanks for all the help

[fierce hill]

is there a minimum amount of event coins we should get per race?

600?

[dark nimbus]

im newbie newbie wanted to try Argos, would it be rude if im seeking for a practice party for Argos? if not what should I say on title of party..?

[minor briar]

there wont be many learning parties but u can try put one up and see who joins

[minor briar]

like 100 lol...

[fierce hill]

lol, do you manage know the math on how many we need per week?

[dark nimbus]

oh okie, ive been watched guide videos but i just wanted to try so i can get used to those patterns

[minor briar]

nope, not hard to do it tho, just havent bothered cuz ik ill buy it all out every week regardless

[minor briar]

u can maybe just join a "card run" party or get a friend to carry u, u wont be doing much of the mechs but u'll see wat the raid is like if u want

[dark nimbus]

mmm okay! ill try to make a party and see if peeps join if not ill find a party to join

thank you!

[minor briar]

have fun

[nimble gorge]

what dpes this button actually do now?

[balmy plank]

The "view extra rewards"? Same thing as always

[dapper thunder]

can you use the 4 engraving thing on a different character from the hyper express?

[nimble gorge]

what does it mean by: "2 Gate - 0/5"

[rigid plank]

A new feature was added so for the first 5 clears of any gate, you get double mats

[nimble gorge]

from the bonus loot, or chest?

[rigid plank]

correction, double relic set mats but for example, instead of normally getting 12 bones from valtan hard, you get 24

[rose jewel]

read patch notes people, read patch notes

[hollow scroll]

powerpass and express events mainly, or even join a guild that can mayhaps carry you through early abyss

[shut pasture]

Your best bet right now is if you're new or you want to start fresh with a new character is to use the Story Express and progress through that for the rewards and expedited progression up to 1340 ilvl, then use the Hyper Express from 1340 up to 1445.

[cloud pendant]

Is lv9 CD gem demanding?

[minor briar]

no, only hyper class

[cloud pendant]

I'm looking to trade for a lv 9 at gem

[minor briar]

no, read the gem guide in #info-dump

[drifting haven]

Masterpiece # 47 ➜ Punika Chaos Gate Secret Map and higher
can this one drop in south vern secret map? or just punika?

[daring carbon]

is it possible to get a gold/purple stage after exhausting all aura on chaos dungeons? and is doing them a good way of saving gold or is there a better for 1302

[rich leaf]

yes u can get them, but what do you mean good way of saving gold?

[drifting haven]

just wants to know can he get gold from it or not

after aura used

[white osprey]

What day is reset for the week

[drifting haven]

wednesday

[white osprey]

Ty

[daring carbon]

i mean by getting the item/materials then i wouldnt need to buy them eventually

everything costs so much on the market so im just triyng to grind as much as i can in limbo rn before i get out

[rich leaf]

u dont get mats after you used up your resonance

u get exchange tokens

and uh its inefficient after a while cuz everytime you buy, the exchange rate goes up

[daring carbon]

is there a better way to grind at 1302?

[rich leaf]

do u need leapstones?

do unas, and uh tower

oh wait u cant do tower, its t1 and t2 only

[minor briar]

is this a new acc?

or an alt

[daring carbon]

new account

[balmy plank]

You completed gate 2 and have 0/5 double rewards left

[nimble gorge]

only vykas and valtan get the double bonus loot?

[balmy plank]

You should check out the patch notes from last week. It has all the details

[drifting haven]

also isnt double rewards per char per instance? so shouldnt u still have double rewards left

0/5 probs means u havent done them yet

[balmy plank]

Per character. But if you've done 100 valtans before the update you'll never see the double rewards

[drifting haven]

since would take 5 weeks to get all double rewards

double rewards is on crafting mats anyway

also where does it say 0/5?

[rich leaf]

planning to make 50/50 4x3+1 on tai scrapper, would having adrenaline as my +1 be okay?

[nimble gorge]

at bottom here

[drifting haven]

should just mean u havent collected it yet is why 0/5 ones it shows 5/5 it should be finished for that char. could be wrong

[nimble gorge]

yeah Ill read the patch notes again, I went over it only briefly

[drifting haven]

cause it said double rewards for every difficulty / gate after patch

[balmy plank]

To me it makes sense that you start with 5/5 double rewards available and use them till your 0/5

[nimble gorge]

probably it then

[drifting haven]

just wouldnt make sense cause patch was this week and would take 5 weeks to use all double rewards

[nimble gorge]

5 chars per week of double reward

[balmy plank]

Again. If you've already don't these raids before you won't see the double rewards. It's not retroactive

ALL characters get double rewards for the first 5 GATES completed

[drifting haven]

it should be first 5 clears per char per gate if read patch notes. after that its single reward. but its only for relic set crafting mat

know what u mean

if u did soo many runs u wouldnt need mats anyway

[minor briar]

ye shuold, tho ask in #scrapper for better answer

[near cove]

its first 5 gates not clears

[drifting haven]

but yeah patch notes said u get 5 first clear rewards per gate. meaning gate 1 and gate 2

alright

[balmy plank]

I don't get which part we're getting mixed up on. You seem to agree and understand but reply with "yea, but". Idk got me confused as to what we're trying to answer now

[hollow scroll]

[drifting haven]

These rewards are on a per gate basis, meaning you can earn 5 additional sets of rewards per gate, per character.

is what it says in patch notes

[balmy plank]

Yea, than you said it takes 5 weeks to get them which confused me. You can do all the gates in 2-3 weeks

[near cove]

i suppose it is clear baisis

[rich leaf]

i alrdy did noones online i think

[near cove]

oh damm

so it is 5 clears

[hollow scroll]

its just 5 and you’re done

[drifting haven]

just saying it takes 5 weeks of each gate. remember legion raids is weekly. so wouldnt get them all in 1 week

[minor briar]

50/50 should be fine with adr 1, i tihnk 30/70 and 40/60 would need adr 2/3

[near cove]

i woudnt be screwing myself over by doing vykas nm then

[drifting haven]

shouldnt since says each difficulty. if u look picture above it says hard

[balmy plank]

First 5 gates. You clear Vykas 1 time and that's 3 gates. On week 2 you get bonus for the remaining 2 gates

[hollow scroll]

they are separate or hm doesnt take a nm 2x rewards

[minor briar]

look at the pictures braden

why r u so confidently wrong LMAO

its per gate

[hollow scroll]

main & alt

[minor briar]

not total gates

[drifting haven]

your not reading its per gate

These rewards are on a per gate basis, meaning you can earn 5 additional sets of rewards per gate, per character.

per difficulty

[hollow scroll]

its 5 clears per gate reading is extra hard

[dark nimbus]

umm just random question! what would be the easiest way to get skill point potion? im 3 points short

[near cove]

Ok now i have a question at the end it says [Hand] does that mean when the buff is activated its only on that mode ?

[near cove]

collectables just find the one you are closest to or lvl up your char

[hollow scroll]

its separate for nm & hm

[drifting haven]

normal has its own one and hm does

[near cove]

Oh thats even better xd

and sorta even gives a reason to run nm

[hollow scroll]

not really

maybe after

[drifting haven]

u wouldnt run normal since u dont make as much money

[near cove]

oh that too nm got a gold nerf flip

[hollow scroll]

but nice to have double rewards waiting i guess

[dark nimbus]

okie!

[near cove]

why did this game have to be so mean to my gunlancer man it took 50% more materials than the average after the nerfs to get to 1445 xd

i had like 600 ghls and it used it all for 1415>45

[minor briar]

check ur codex for sp pots and try do them all, tome ones r relatively easy

they dont need more than 3x3

HA just an extra but if ur good and never get hit, it doesnt do anything

also the "support explosion" is just gonna be for a few weeks

should die down once everyone has the relic pieces

[near cove]

the only way a support is going to be gatekept now is if they have shit combat sats / roster lvl

so if you are good on those you should be fine

[shrewd lichen]

is there a way to tell which merchant is at my stronghold without going there?

[near cove]

4x3 is almost a endgame support 5x3 is almost overkill but will show parties that you have dedication and prob are a good supp

gems and cards as well

gems u just need your main buff uptimes at 5 or 7 if you want to maybe slack off a little on swift

but i would suggest try get like close to 100% uptime atleast

Quick question why is Kadan a disliked los card?

oh will it in the future ?

cuz my luck is so wierd and i keep getting kadan cards and have no shandi xd

[dark halo]

new/returning player pov:

[rose jewel]

funny moment for being a support

dont worry, 3 weeks and the hype will die

lopang slaves everywhere

[graceful ledge]

just out of curiosity

where's the "photo zone" during valtan g2

[rich leaf]

sus

[rose jewel]

hmmmmmm

i see you're a woman of culture as well

[dull pulsar]

hey guys my friend skipped feiton st ory quest on his FIRST character, can he still get the punika powerpass>
from theevent
hes 1415 atm and finished punika and SV MSQ but he says he doesnt have the powerpass

[rose jewel]

because its not just finishing punika

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/434657374117298188/1085644507569197086/image.png

patch notes are gud

[dull pulsar]

god bless you

[pine plume]

god can't bless himself !

😄

[dull pulsar]

LMAO

[rose jewel]

somewhere around there

then you jump and enjoy the double view

[inland grove]

hey all I just hit 1490 on my main, all +20. I have like 900 fused leaps I didnt use, should I use em before getting brel gear??

[rose jewel]

you should convert to brel

3% raw taps are....

[pine plume]

there is a method to convert to the uper for all tier ?

[rose jewel]

not all tier

[pine plume]

sad...

[rose jewel]

t1/2 you cant convert stones

[pine plume]

very sad...

[slate oracle]

Wo with double mats from valtan/vykas can you get 6-set relic in the second week?

[rose jewel]

mhm

if you do both hard modes

[tight geode]

When you skip buying chest in raid where do you find it again?

[rich leaf]

on the legion raid screen

theres gonna be a blue icon with a chest on it

[graceful ledge]

i just want a good shot of my chara on transition

[rich leaf]

suspect

[tight geode]

Oof ok thanks I see it. Almost never use that menu

[uneven relic]

I'm at 1360 right now and looks like I need fused leapstones to level up to 1370. Is that something I should look out for or am I upgrading the wrong item

[rich leaf]

you dont need fused leapstones

[uneven relic]

Oh I clicked special honing

Thanks

[rich leaf]

np :> you unlock special honing when u can do legion raids think of them as "free taps"

[uneven relic]

When should I start looking to do stuff like argos and other end game content, is 1370 good enough or not recommended i.e. should I go for card sets/skill points etc before I try to look for a party

[rich leaf]

u can do argos at 1370, theres a lot of people doing free carries for mokokos

i mean for skill points and cards u can do those anytime when u have free time

[uneven relic]

Should I try for higher to get the other gates?

[rich leaf]

u unlock gate 1-3 of argos at 1370

use party finder and not matchmaking

[dark halo]

min is 1370 for all argos gates but you'll most likely be carried. In general, you just want higher ilevel to reach other content like legion raids

[uneven relic]

Can I just upgrade my chosen gear that I got from punnika pass all the way up until I get a better set

[dark halo]

small tip since I didnt find out till after it happened, if you're in need of gold, dont hone past 1412.5 since you wont get gold from abyssal dungeons at/after 1415

[dark halo]

Yes

[uneven relic]

Is it worth saving all of the free choose one materials until a certain level or should I just use them as I get them

[dark halo]

Save until you need them

You can use the battle item chests though. I like to keep a stock of like 20-30 of each nade/buff item

[uneven relic]

ok, also should I be using crystaliine aura or saving. I don't really use bifrosts right now but that's probably something I should need

I think I have about a month's worth saved

[rich leaf]

idk i never used any acrystalline aura

[dark halo]

aura is up to you, imo

with aura, you can repair in dungeons/raids and access storage(the caveat is: you need a pet)

which is really nice

@uneven relic Also, I noticed you're a gunslinger main. You may want to follow guides to get skill points since gunslinger runs alot of skills.

[rich leaf]

also pet storage

im sacred of using it, i might get used to it and might not be able to live without it

[uneven relic]

I am swapping to arcanist

[dark halo]

very understandable

[uneven relic]

I have 2 GS 2 arcanist a deathblade and summoner

only one gs and 1 arcanist are in t3 others are like T2 and i just keep them to hold my engravings and cards

Following the community google docs rn

for arcanist and gs

[dark halo]

imo, try to get them up to like 1370 so you can run abyssal dungeons

for more gold income

[formal fractal]

hello, is it still worth it to buy guardian stones from wandering merchant ship considering their prices in auction house?

[minor igloo]

Gunstorageslinger

[uneven relic]

oreha?

[dark halo]

yeah

[uneven relic]

ok i will get the GS there

how likely is it to get legendary card packs or legendary selection card packs at the end of abyss dungeion

challenge abyss*

[rich leaf]

why do u not like gs? 😠

[dark halo]

like 1% chance 😭

[uneven relic]

o

I got a b2b

[rich leaf]

were gonna get a glow buff soon

[uneven relic]

someone bid the selection for 5k

[rich leaf]

leg selection for 5k is ccheap

[dark halo]

They are rare so yeah

[uneven relic]

Apparently I could have gotten a lot more haha

[rich leaf]

yep

[dark halo]

it can go up to like 20k-ish if they REALLY want it

[uneven relic]

um gameplay is a bit boring now aha

and i liked TF in league so card character seemed cool

[rich leaf]

gameplay 1415+ is different

[uneven relic]

i still think i'm way better / comfy on gs

[dark halo]

Its not bad but it'll eat up alot of coins that you may need for other things

[rich leaf]

but yeah you do you

[uneven relic]

i have about 1 hour on arcanist so far haha

this hyper express pass is so op

[formal fractal]

what else should I spend my pirate coins on?

[uneven relic]

just gives you enough for the next level and then you get another reward

[dark halo]

i think there are a few vendors that sell like giants hearts and stuff that you may need for skillpoints

[uneven relic]

At what point should I use the solar protections/blessings

[dark halo]

and you need to buy them with pirate coins

[dark halo]

ups the chances for honing

[formal fractal]

apart from the one time collectibles, there's nothing else to spend them on?

[uneven relic]

if I'm at like 86% rn, is it worth. I guess it's just risk tolerance?

[rich leaf]

only use on weapons

[dark halo]

I'd save for when it gets ROUGH like 10% zone

which is around/after 1445

[uneven relic]

wait you can have a 10% chance to upgrade?

[dark halo]

it gets worse

[rose jewel]

10%

[rich leaf]

10 is high

[rose jewel]

i wish i had 10%

[uneven relic]

b r u h

[ripe ivy]

server reset is at 0400 server time right?

[rose jewel]

2hrs from now

[ripe ivy]

wait so 0300?

[dark halo]

0300 PST, yes

[ripe ivy]

alright

[uneven relic]

what collectibles?

[dark halo]

Alt+L > Giants Hearts > 5th heart and 8th heart from blackfangs den

iirc, you need pirate coins to get them

[uneven relic]

oh i think you replied to the wrong person

[dark halo]

whoops, yeah lol

[dark halo]

Yeah but its really up to you. If you're not in a rush for the collectibles then you can skip and buy honing mats*

[formal fractal]

oh okay got it thanks a lot!

[shut elbow]

what chat tab setting do i need to uncheck for it to not show stronghold 1.5x exp every time i kill a mob

[dark halo]

Dont rush though, take your time if you're around 1340-1400 since after you hone to 1415, you wont get gold anymore from oreha on that character

most legion raids you'll get gatekept and then one of your sources of gold income would be Argos(after 1415)

[formal fractal]

okay thanks for advice 😄

[maiden locust]

add to that also farm silver in meantime, you will need it

[dark halo]

Silver is such a necessity now, after the recent patch

Start doing Lopang Island Una Tasks ASAP(literally every character) and hoard that silver

[uneven relic]

I should stop at 1400 sounds g ood

[uneven relic]

ty

[dark halo]

Once you're at 1415, start watching vids on legion raids and look around for learning parties.

[cloud pendant]

fck too many supports now

imbalance

[rich leaf]

says u artist main

=-=

[maiden locust]

more like everyone just want to play artist, just give it few more weeks until artist vibe is normalized and everyone gonna back to just doing weekly things casually

[maiden locust]

when you are part of the problem

[dark halo]

Better to have supports than no supports

[pine plume]

yes ! I have 3/5 char support in my roster 😄

I'm good ?

[dark halo]

Looks good

[maiden locust]

pala/bard/artist?

[pine plume]

yes

[dark halo]

This should be a given, but find out who you like playing. Don't waste gold on characters you KNOW thats gonna be an alt because they're boring/unfun and funnel to your main(s)

[pine plume]

yes indeed 😄 Bard 1410 Artist 1340 Pala 730... I hesitate a lot between Bard and Artist, then I think hone Bard to 1415 to hit "end game" then take a decision if I up bard or artist as main

[maiden locust]

my roaster currently have
Paladin/bard 2/6 as well, was thinking about deleting sorc for artist, so wanna know how do you find artist as bard main

[pine plume]

as you see with my ilevels, I'm not playing in end game... chaos dungeon... some raid with always a driver... I didn't really play chalenge fight as support... then I can only compare Bard and Artist for that activity

[dark halo]

artist is definitely a must-try character imo

[brisk helm]

I kinda like artist now after being in few raids with them

Whenever I hv artist I never use any pots lol

[dark halo]

artist shield uptime is insane

• on demand healing

[brisk helm]

Shield good too ya

[dark halo]

• a/2 cleanse

[brisk helm]

Balls heal for a lot

[maiden locust]

• loli and run fast

[pine plume]

but just by feeling, Artist is cool and dynamique... more versatile but as I read, more difficult to play because of skill shot instead of large aoe skill

soon it will be a very difficult choice to do between those 2 😄

[dark halo]

Artist awakening is absolutely mental, especially with expert engraving on

you get like a 50k shield

• 2 heals or an attk buff

[brisk helm]

Ya so good

[maiden locust]

from what I seen in my raids, probably artist real challenge is you have to stay close to the boss to attack, while on other hand someone like pala can cast heal from range, and bard need to stick with her teammates

[pine plume]

but.... btw... I prefer adult sexy woman than little pretty children 😄

[pine plume]

this too

[maiden locust]

keep lying to yourself

[dark halo]

Its very doable though. you get lots of personal shields(stackable to 3) from her tripods + she has good skills with immunities

[maiden locust]

also I remember there was a cheatsheet for support effectiveness in parties, updated with artist as well in #info-dump

[brisk helm]

I thought I will make another alt with story express but now that I started doing it is so boring

Couldn't even finish luterra

[rose jewel]

out of the 3, bard is my fav

paladin is a snorefest

[pine plume]

yes but bypass all honing later... I think it can be a good trade 😄

[rose jewel]

artist im still getting the hang of but shes fun

[dark halo]

bard sound effects are too damn loud 😭

[pine plume]

this

[brisk helm]

True

[pine plume]

another bad point for bard

[maiden locust]

relatable, literally just finished luterra right now, giganticlly boring, hope later on things will get smoother

[dark halo]

shes slamming her face into her harp on every ability

[rose jewel]

https://tenor.com/view/musical-notes-gif-25964053

i just got used to the harp sounds

i kind of.. dont even hear them anymore

second nature

[dark halo]

sounds like trauma

[brisk helm]

[rose jewel]

i play with sounds off i better listen to brel epic music

[maiden locust]

Signum you alive

[rose jewel]

i was never alive

im all dead inside

[brisk helm]

[rose jewel]

[dark halo]

Fr tho, give artist a try

but if you dont want to tread through story quests again, its understandable

[pine plume]

I could have been his father 😄

[maiden locust]

yeah I will, artist release was more reasons to delete sorc anyway

[rose jewel]

she could have been your grandma from eons past

[brisk helm]

Lol

[rose jewel]

how old is the fucking hyperactive tiny woman, 1000?

[brisk helm]

Don't remember exactly but I think around 3k or something

[pine plume]

yes but visualy she is a little girl...

and playing all those hour watch a char, I prefer adult ass than little girl 😄

[rose jewel]

so you prefer mature looking woman

[pine plume]

yes 😄 I'm 40 😄

[rose jewel]

[maiden locust]

I done the awful story 4 times already, and doing it for 5th time on deathblade atm

[brisk helm]

Lol i made db too

For story express

But it's too boring

Prob gonna do lil by lil daily

[dark halo]

Wish T1 and T2 wasnt dead so atleast we could do palace

[maiden locust]

after I finish the entire thing to south vern, I will probably delete sorc and play artist for couple hours to get the grasp of it, if I find it good I will boost it with powerpass

otherwise will just leave that slot free for future needs

im at punika in story pass, and want to die

im so tired of msq

[dark halo]

shift+g a godsend tho

[maiden locust]

faxc

[brisk helm]

Ya

[maiden locust]

no shift g i would have ctrl f4'd

[dark halo]

cuts down 3-4hours in half

[maiden locust]

IKR

so boring

[dark halo]

do the big brain move and buy a char ticket

[modest isle]

is there a way to convert Raid / Victory seals to adventure seals?

[dark halo]

This chick in stronghold

should be near the bottom of each category

[modest isle]

great thanks

[maiden locust]

@brisk helm btw since you get bored with this shit like me,
after I finish north vern, I do something different, like the story forces you to go through all cities in a continent,
so I like do 2or3 cities each day so eventually I finish the entire story to south vern in like 7-9 days without getting bored to death

[brisk helm]

Ya I am prob gonna do it too

For now I wanna get to vern atleast

It'll be ez after that

[final mural]

why didnt daily reset happen

[brisk helm]

It's in like hr

[final mural]

what the

[maiden locust]

did you check story express rewards? xDD

[brisk helm]

Nope

[maiden locust]

once you reach vern they give u gear that unlocks rohendel instantly, once u finish rohendel you get t2 gear that unlocks yorn instantly, etc

[brisk helm]

For me it's more like I don't need to hone lol

[maiden locust]

[brisk helm]

That's why I am doing story express

[pine plume]

same

[maiden locust]

same

[pine plume]

and sum is pretty fun 😄

[misty eagle]

hello, i have another existential question: so i am at 1340 gear score actually, i have that blue set of equip at +8, now with chaos punika 3 i unlocked the purple set, should i upgrade that to +15 from scratch instead of the blue set i already had?

[brisk helm]

Cus I hv 2 char that I used vern pass on and never touched them cus need to hone with t1 and 2 mats which I don't hv

[dark halo]

You'll want to "Gear Transfer" which you can do at the person you hone

it'll move over what you've upgraded to(this does not apply to all upcoming gear)

[maiden locust]

in terms of "solid" gameplay at 1445, SH or DB is better, im going to get both to 1445 anyways but just wanna know if I should go with db or sh first with hyper express

[brisk helm]

You can transfer or you can just keep honing until you can do argos

[misty eagle]

the transfer would shift all the upgrades or just +1?

[maiden locust]

no in t3, +15 blue will go to +15 purple, or +6 leg

[brisk helm]

If it's t3 it'll transfer all if gear is t2 and you transfer to t3 it'll get to +1

[misty eagle]

ohhh! ok so i will transfer the whole number

[dark halo]

DB seems like it'd be more solid since when you run out of meter as SH, you're doing no dps until you transform again(going Demon Impulse)

[brisk helm]

Db better for sure

[misty eagle]

by the way, upgrading in t3 is like hell, i don't even know where to farm oreha simple fusion material

[maiden locust]

exactly what I was thinking, and I was considering surge for db anyway, so its like constant dps uptime

[dark halo]

You have to craft it in your stronghold(you have to research the crafting method first)

[brisk helm]

You farm materials like fish etc and craft them in stronghold

[maiden locust]

you craft them from stronghold, or buy from market

but I advise to craft similar price but marginally lower

[brisk helm]

Prob buying is not good rn since fish prices are skyrocketing

Fish stocks up good

[maiden locust]

market is so smelly rn with all those fish stuff

[misty eagle]

is there a guide for the stronghold?

[brisk helm]

Ya there should be some on yt or maxroll

But maxroll guides kinda outdated

[rose jewel]

everything on Ctrl+1 is all you need

the rest is tricks and tips on getting positive gold thru crafting

and shit like that

[brisk helm]

[rose jewel]

do whatever quest you have and research everything you can

[brisk helm]

Oh wonder what happens with sh t3 research buffs now since honing chances already 100%

[dark halo]

Make sure to use those stronghold activity acceleration tickets to cut down times if you need researches

[brittle parcel]

from your past experiences guys is worth trying the twinkle twinkle shop?

[brisk helm]

Yes

[dark halo]

Unless you're ballin, no

[maiden locust]

for someone at 1340 with possibly no gold, researchs gonna drain whatever godl he has really quick xd

[modest isle]

is anguished isle dungeon daily?

[brisk helm]

Ya

You can do quest daily and get key

[modest isle]

nice ok
