tortoyk

slate elk

damn rip axe

rose jewel

#

or even before that

slate elk
#

it was a good one

rose jewel
#

im so confused

slate elk
#

made me cut 3 or 4 trees i think

dreamy bluff
#

if your tool break after cutting 3-4 trees. its a bad tool

rose jewel
#

maybe it gave him 10000 materials a cut

slate elk
#

ur kinda right

rose jewel
#

you never know

slate elk
#

but i had good time with it

#

like 5 mins

rose jewel
#

that was a quickie

slate elk
#

at least now i cut faster

#

and now ik why it was super slow xD

dreamy bluff
#

lol

shut pasture
#

Wait until you get a tool with Super Armor on it and you'll no longer be interrupted when you get hit

proud geyser
#

Ok so I started playing at launch and picked the wrong engravings for the class I started with and then I started alts before getting the first character to max level or any gear and now I have no geared character, no clue what to do to progress, there's so much around and I have have no idea what the priorities should be :S I basically stopped playing a few days after launch have no idea how stuff worked or what to do.

rose jewel
#

just need a pic of how your roster looks like

shut pasture
#

^

#

Then we can help you

rose jewel
#

besides

#

you're not gonna max any gear for a long time

proud geyser
rose jewel
#

so that's out of the question

shut pasture
rose jewel
#

yeah that should be good

#

you can censor names if you like

#

no need but some people panick over that

dreamy bluff
#

most mistakes can easily be fixed

slate elk
#

just like mineYEP

rose jewel
#

win shift S

proud geyser
# shut pasture Yes

I deleted a character because I wanted to use that slot for an artist to try them hence the empty slot

rose jewel
#

btw, dont give us a phone pic please

#

NICE, no phone pics

#

ok

dreamy bluff
#

loll

rose jewel
#

thats extremely easy to "fix"

#

create your artist, give her the "Story express", reach 1340, game will give you a punika pass after you complete punika and berver's friend, then use on whoever you want

#

2 chars at tier 3 by that point

proud geyser
#

Tbh I haven't found the class I enjoy the most yet haha most build guides choose skills and rotations that feel awkward to play as

rose jewel
#

then you have Hyper express +, give it to a char you wanna speed hone to end game, any you like, there is not "best" char to use it on, that's subjective

slate elk
#

btw do i have to buy the simple oreha fusion mats from the market with gold cause i can't progress without them or should i craft them

shut pasture
rose jewel
#

and as to "fix" the rest of your chars, you just hone them slowly

The Ultimate Artist Infoset

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

rose jewel
#

there is no "builds", there is only support build

shut pasture
#

Also that.

rose jewel
#

dont go dps as artist

#

for your own sake

#

and the community's

shut pasture
#

Yeah, if you want to play a DPS class I would advise something else.

slate elk
shut pasture
proud geyser
#

Well when I wasn't dps as a bard I was having issues soloing for example 😦 bard was the character I originally planned to play from day 1

slate elk
shut pasture
#

I buy mine as I need them for the occasional attempt

devout granite
#

does simply using lifeskill tools reduce its max durability?

slate elk
#

well ig then i need to do more abyssal dungeon

proud geyser
#

so won't a support artist have issues soloing?

teal raft
#

best assassin class for pve?

dreamy bluff
shut pasture
#

You have access to two Skill build presets by default

proud geyser
shut pasture
#

So one is your main support build, the other can be your Chaos Dungoen one which both will be outlined in that guide linked above.

slate elk
#

i already failed at high rates

rose jewel
#

its as easy as to get into the game and click on the gift icon next to the minimap

#

new events

dreamy bluff
#

support have skills you can use to make solo content easier. since a support will mostly be using support skills in group content. those support skills arent that useful in solo content where u are alone so you would need to use different skills for those solo content

rose jewel
#

or you dont even need to click, that shit popups every time you log

#

its anoying ngl

proud geyser
#

Does this "Primary Character" setting matter?

shut pasture
# proud geyser tbh idk what a "story express" is or how to reach that 1340

When you make a new character you'll be able to access the Story Express from the gift box icon at the top right of your screen, next to your minimap that is if it doesn't show up on your screen before that. Once you activate it on that character it cannot be moved to another character and if you delete the character with the Story Express active then you will not be able to activate it again.

shut pasture
dreamy bluff
proud geyser
rose jewel
#

you cant

dreamy bluff
#

its new with this patch

shut pasture
proud geyser
rose jewel
#

unless

dreamy bluff
#

it was release with artist patch

twin vapor
#

is there a reason why knowledge transfers take 8 whole hours?

rose jewel
#

can you remember 10 years of your life in 10 seconds? they need time to study and remember

#

they are "transfering" the knowledge already lived to the new fresh brain

dreamy bluff
#

not really. recent patch in korea removed the 8hour downtime but we dont have that update yet

proud geyser
#

Hmm so the artist is just a paintbrush as a weapon and all it's attacks are just slashing things with ink?

rose jewel
#

try her out

#

again

#

she-is-a-SUPPORT

shut pasture
dreamy bluff
#

id recommend watching some gameplay vid of those classes to see if you like those playstyle

rose jewel
#

if you want a dps, in 3-4 months we will have aeromancer

proud geyser
shut pasture
proud geyser
#

I was really looking forward to summoner until I saw that it was all CD's that summon temporary things or attacks just designed to look like creatures instead of actual minions. I like my minion master necromancers and the like

rose jewel
#

summ has 2 playstyles as well

#

she has both a pokemon centered build or a casting one, but you still cast 2-3 pokemons

hasty lagoon
#

anyone doing Vykas G2 normal? stuck here, I can pay for a carry if possible

rose jewel
#

paper, please

proud geyser
#

First character I made though was sorceress and I got the wrong class engravings from quests and afaik you need like 50 or more before you can even use it so I was skrewed and it was unplayable as the build I wanted to play

rose jewel
#

what

#

first, that's a bit of an exaggeration

#

its only 20

#

second

#

you can buy them anytime, and you get a lot of them as you keep playing

#

or you get them via the event we have right now, for free, by just playing

#

third

timber mauve
#

I mean, the event going right now will give you 20 of each rarity besides legendary.

rose jewel
#

there is no such thing as a complete jail or fuck up on your account that you cant fix

#

4th

#

you dont even worry about engravings, AT ALL, at where you are right now

timber mauve
rose jewel
#

class engrave yes, but that's it

#

just make a new account 👌

#

the 4th roster

#

but now go to RU, then to JP and lastly KR

#

the promized land

proud geyser
#

This was back at launch and me not being good at the way igniter plays I took those by mistake and only very few quests were giving them. I saw an auction house type thing but was too poor to buy enough to fix my mistake and I had no idea how to get more since I almost had igniter unlocked by that point

rose jewel
#

you just needed to ask c:

#

but hey, now you're here and we are able to help answer things

shut pasture
teal raft
#

guys am i gonna regret choosing reaper

rose jewel
#

probably yes, probably no

#

do you like her

timber mauve
#

Yesn’t

shut pasture
proud geyser
#

One thing I do have a problem with is that in this type of game i'm so used to left click moving and attacking that I can't get used to right click being the main "auto attack" skill. I'm hoping some classes can forgo that attack and just use skills?

teal raft
#

i dont care if i suck yk i would do whatever to learn

rose jewel
#

then play her and have fun

shut pasture
rose jewel
#

you answered yourself

teal raft
#

👍

proud geyser
rose jewel
#

then you indeed need to get used to it

#

its pure muscle memory you will build as you play

proud geyser
#

That's why I was asking about classes that don't need to use that attack

shut pasture
#

Well no class really needs to

rose jewel
#

RO i used left to move right to attack, in here i right to move left to attack, and in lol right for both

#

you just learn

shut pasture
#

However it is something you will adjust to over time

#

Its just muscle memory

#

Might feel weird right now but the more you do it the more normal it will feel

rose jewel
#

no class ever NEEDS to AA

#

it does help in some situations but not really obligatory

#

wardancer btw

#

:c

proud geyser
#

I have asperger syndrome 😦 which has problems adjusting to change to the point I would quit from frustration of dying non stop before getting used to it

dreamy bluff
#

the keybind for auto atk is C btw, so if you dont want to left click to auto just use C

proud geyser
shut pasture
#

No

rose jewel
#

pff no

shut pasture
#

Not in the slightest

#

Auto attacking is the last thing anything ever does

rose jewel
#

your AAs deal like 50k at best

#

your skills do 20M each

#

thats nothing

timber mauve
#

AA = 40k
DD = 100M

rose jewel
#

you lose nothing by not AAing

dreamy bluff
#

your skill do millions while aa do like 40k. you wont notice the difference as much as u think

shut pasture
#

Important thing to know about Lost Ark; It is not like Diablo or PoE

proud geyser
#

oh ok so why even have the AA as a thing? Wouldn't 8 skills have the 1st finish it's CD before the 8th was used?

rose jewel
#

not always

#

its there for specific niche situations as i already said

dreamy bluff
#

skill have different cd, that means you might have time where they all just happend to be on cd, then you jkust aa so u dont get bored

proud geyser
#

btw is maxroll.gg the place to get good build guides or what? It's the only place I know and I only know about it because I saw them when looking at D3 builds off Rhykker's youtube channel lol

dreamy bluff
#

you can get a basic build there

rose jewel
#

for character builds, community guides are the best

#

for guides on other things, maybe yes, some are outdated tho

proud geyser
dreamy bluff
#

more in-depth build youd want to check the community build

rose jewel
#

or you can just look around #info-dump for some quick guidepics

The Ultimate Artist Infoset

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

rose jewel
#

open that link, and all classes are at the top, click any you like

proud geyser
#

ahh cool ty

rose jewel
#

those are the community guides

dreamy bluff
#

maxroll will show you build as you gear up and get more skill points, the community build is more endgame

pulsar flare
#

Sry for being late I mean that I need to turn it in but I can't find it anywhere

rose jewel
#

do you have more than 1 character

#

is it in your storage

buoyant herald
#

check storage and pet inventory

bleak elk
#

does anyone off the top of their head know the odds of getting a los card from a legendary pack

pulsar flare
#

I check storages

#

I will check characters

rose jewel
#

pet inventory as well

buoyant herald
#

pet inventory too ?

pulsar flare
#

Don't have aura

#

anymore

buoyant herald
#

maybe you did before

rose jewel
#

indeed

buoyant herald
#

it would still be there

pulsar flare
#

So I need to active aura?

rose jewel
#

i believe you can move them out of pet inv. without it

#

but idk

bleak elk
#

@pulsar flareif you have ever deleted a character it might be in your universal storage

rose jewel
#

never had no aura

buoyant herald
#

think you can take stuff out just not put in

pulsar flare
#

I just found it in another character. Thanks @rose jewel

#

The last time I played this charcter was since launch so i didnt even think it could be there

rose jewel
#

surprise

last swallow
#

What do you do with the equipment t3 that's lower than your chosen gear? Just dismantle? What about these tiny gems and amulets?

rose jewel
#

amulets = tripods
gems = fuse them, set the autofuse to level 5

#

blue/purple gear = you will hone transfer it to legendary, it dissapears but the legendary gets honed

last swallow
rose jewel
#

hone npc 3rd tab

#

needs to be +15

#

so dont even think about it if youre not 1370

#

but the thing is

dreamy bluff
#

did that character use a powerpass? or got gear from chaos

rose jewel
#

idk if you have the story express or used the event punika pass

last swallow
#

Hmm I am ilvl 1399

rose jewel
#

so you already have legendary gear

#

why do you have purple gear then, or blue

#

send a SS

last swallow
#

From chaos dungeon

rose jewel
#

its better to be sure of what youre talking about

last swallow
#

Just random drops

rose jewel
#

because there may be a core problem on what you're doing

dreamy bluff
#

are you doing the chaos dungeon for you item level? or some low level one

last swallow
#

Low level one for alt at ilvl 1340

rose jewel
#

you are doing things in the wrong way my dude

dreamy bluff
#

one a 1399 character u should have a 1385 chaos i think. if not there should be a 1370 one for 1370+ gear

last swallow
#

I do 1385 dungeon with ilvl 1399

#

1340 with 1340 character

dreamy bluff
#

oh

rose jewel
#

he's mixing things up as well

#

do you have legendary gear on your 1340?

last swallow
#

Yeah 1340 chosen gear

rose jewel
#

because you used the event punika powerpass

last swallow
#

Same chosen gear on 1399 but honed

rose jewel
#

then why are you saying the char is 1399

last swallow
#

No just story pass

rose jewel
#

that mixes things up for us and we may give wrong answers

#

well, same thing you get legendary gear

#

anyway

#

to answer and to not continue this long conversation

#

dismantle them, you just keep honing your legendary gear

last swallow
#

Ok 👍

rose jewel
#

try to hone your 1340 to 1370 ASAP

last swallow
rose jewel
#

just do it

#

c:

last swallow
#

I was going to leave it bc no leapstone

dreamy bluff
#

no one does the 1340 contents so ull lose out

rose jewel
#

did you buy event shop already

#

guardian raid

dreamy bluff
#

and have a hard time getting into guardian raids and weekly raids

rose jewel
#

una's dailies

#

weeklies

#

or maybe and just maybe, just wait for tomorrow to get more mats c:

last swallow
#

What is the event shop?

#

I only did chaos dungeons so far

rose jewel
#

i say ASAP, but it doesnt mean right AT THIS very moment

dreamy bluff
#

are u in punnika?

last swallow
dreamy bluff
#

the pink thing is the event merchant

last swallow
#

Oh thanks I have some tokens

#

Are these tokens roster total or by character?

dreamy bluff
#

the evnt is here for a while so get the stuff u need. no need to ty to buy everything.

last swallow
#

Oh it is roster

slate elk
#

is that a good price or is it high?

dreamy bluff
#

some stuff is once per roster, and some CAN BE PURCHASED EACH WEEK

#

caps, oops

rose jewel
#

holy 16

#

it was like 6 a couple days ago

dreamy bluff
slate elk
#

only when i wanted to buy them

rose jewel
#

but i have 0 idea where he plays

#

SA?

slate elk
#

EU

dreamy bluff
#

yeah before artist they were really cheap but after people snatch up the cheap ones fast

rose jewel
#

eu what

slate elk
#

central

rose jewel
#

lol

#

well

slate elk
rose jewel
#

buy if you need

#

or you can craft your own

slate elk
#

i can't craft them rn

#

cause i need lab lvl 3

rose jewel
#

well

#

are you taking care of your SH

slate elk
#

SH?

#

stronghold?

rose jewel
#

what are we talking about?

#

exactly

slate elk
#

yeah i am currently getting crafting for lvl 2

rose jewel
#

good

slate elk
#

lab research

rose jewel
#

keep going at least once a day

cloud pendant
#

what is the amulet compensation about?

rose jewel
#

dispatch, research, craft things with silver

slate elk
#

yep

#

even though it's too much gold

rose jewel
#

feels like that because you dont have a fully developed roster

slate elk
#

when u say roster u mean all my characters right?

feral pulsar
#

Pretty new and I need help nuking a world boss, is the right place to ask?

shut pasture
rose jewel
#

roster = all chars in 1 server basically

feral pulsar
slate elk
shut pasture
slate elk
#

but i probably will use the punika powerpass

shut pasture
#

Leveling to 50 in Lost Ark is basically just a glorified tutorial. Game actually starts once you get to level 50.

rose jewel
#

tutorial part 2

#

then the game really really starts at punika tier 3

slate elk
#

man this honing

#

i got 50% and i fail

timber mauve
#

At least it’s cheap right now.

rose jewel
#

heh

#

50%, i wish i had those

slate elk
#

not for me

#

i miss the 100% on t1

rose jewel
#

and t2

#

and early t3

#

welcome to the endgame

slate elk
#

those were the good days

rose jewel
#

they were not, t1-2-early3 is trash ngl

#

maybe alberhastic and phantom palace

slate elk
#

but at least they didn't fail u xD

shut pasture
slate elk
#

i'll just buy with my all of my gold

slate elk
#

AND THEY SUCCEED

shut pasture
#

Yeah thats just content creators making content

slate elk
#

true

#

btw i need u to pray for me i don't lose or my orhea fusions

shut pasture
#

Just truthfully the system Lost Ark uses isn't much different than say a gear drop system in terms of the rate that you get upgrades

slate elk
#

cause i have literally no gold left

shut pasture
#

The differences are just in execution and visuals. A gear drop system, like WoW, doesn't flash a big fuck you "You failed" animation when you don't get an upgrade you want/need

rose jewel
#

get more

slate elk
#

it's either i sell at the market or go do abyss raid

#

and i queued nobody is queuing

shut pasture
rose jewel
#

i mean

shut pasture
#

You use Party Finder

slate elk
rose jewel
#

abyss RAID is argos

#

you meant abyss dungeon

shut pasture
slate elk
#

yes abyss dungeon

#

sorry

shut pasture
#

Right, yeah, still

slate elk
#

i still didn't reach for abyss raid

shut pasture
#

Don't matchmake those

#

Use Party Finder

slate elk
#

true i forgot those

rose jewel
#

abyss normal

slate elk
#

anyways i got 12 simple orhea fusions

rose jewel
#

is quite dead

slate elk
#

and my hat is 9+

rose jewel
#

wait

slate elk
#

so i need 0 fails

rose jewel
#

is that character using hyper express

slate elk
#

yes

rose jewel
#

did you get any of those from hyper or ark pass

#

you do but dunno when or how many

slate elk
#

not from hyper or ark pass

#

i think from mokoko's challenge

#

uk what i feel dumb now

#

i spent all of my gold

#

when i have this

shut pasture
#

Oh yeah...you know I completely fucking forgot about that uh...whats it called?

slate elk
shut pasture
#

Challenges?

slate elk
#

yeah

pallid panther
#

My computer freezes if i let some minutes with the game open on the loading screen.

But i can afk for hours in game and nothing happens ?

shut pasture
#

Its been a year since I had to think about that thing

slate elk
#

welp all the gold now is gone

#

i'll just farm it xD

rose jewel
#

good thing you DONT need gold to hone now

#

up till 1445

#

so

slate elk
#

i got 24

#

enough right?

rose jewel
#

for what

slate elk
#

for food

rose jewel
#

24 bucks? yeah get yourself a nice meal

slate elk
#

too bad am fasting

#

anyways can i do nacrasena solo?

#

or i should find a party

rose jewel
#

able to enter? yes
kill it? no idea

#

ask for a carry somewhere in area chat

slate elk
#

hope they don't ask for gold

rose jewel
#

or in party finder

#

if they ask for gold

shut pasture
#

You're probably fine just matchmaking for Nacrasena

rose jewel
#

throw them the middle finger and leave

slate elk
rose jewel
#

idk if nacra is ded or not

#

try luck at MM

slate elk
#

yeah in party finder nothing

#

so MM

#

but uk i was super unlucky

#

all my honing was successful except one and now am at 14+

proud geyser
#

If I decided to go back to leveling my summoner would it be good to use the story express on them if they are level 24?

dreamy bluff
#

you can only do story express if you are still at the begening of the game. you also can only use it once

neat leaf
#

whats the most efficient honing past 1460? should i be buying relic books for every single hone?

dreamy bluff
#

and u cant switch

proud geyser
#

ahh ok so only my artist can use it then cool ty

dreamy bluff
#

ya

feral pulsar
#

So I have to make a new character if I wanna play another class?

dreamy bluff
shy yarrow
#

use the upgrade calculator on maxrolls site if you want efficiency

neat leaf
#

im not really in a rush no

#

im pretty sure it says to always use a book until ur about to fill artisans

shut pasture
neat leaf
#

but dry honing would exhaust leapstones so quickly

shy yarrow
#

heavily depends on the cost of materials, your bound materials, market prices for books, and all the other things like shards

you can also try luck on the specialized NAW learning discord server

Oh yeah, that’s the channel.

try looking for lost-mokokos discord, or just type discord gg lost-mokokos

Thanks, gents! I posted in those channels.

hello. thinking of coming back to lost ark, quit shortly after launch. i had some level 50s at the time but ive since moved from NA to EU. ive read that i wont be able to transfer characters... and really do not want to play 1-50 again 💀 story ass. did it a few times in beta too. are there any catch up story skips available or is that not an option considering i wont have any previous characters levelled

#

(free ones preferably)

timber mauve
#

You can buy a south Vern power pass to juice yourself to 1370.

#

There is also a story express event that will get you very close to that point (1340) ilvl in around 35 hours of questing if you zoom.

scenic heart
#

35 hrs OMEGALUL

#

how much is the pass? $10?

timber mauve
#

South Vern pass is $70 or so.

scenic heart
#

wtf

#

maybe i dont want to reinstall this game LMAO

#

thats extortion

timber mauve
#

Same price or lower as basically any other game with a level boost Shruge

scenic heart
#

not really true but lol... will pass on that

timber mauve
#

Think a punika pass is $50-60.

scenic heart
#

whats a skip to 50

#

just flat 50

timber mauve
#

$10

scenic heart
#

yeah okay

#

thats what i was asking lol

#

lowkey just wanna pvp so

#

thats all i need right

timber mauve
#

South Vern pass basically boosts you to raiding ilvl.

scenic heart
#

yeah thats okay, i would be skipping all the content i didnt get to play

timber mauve
scenic heart
#

oh word?

timber mauve
#

You only need like lvl 27 I think.

rose jewel
#

pvp arena unlocks at around 26

timber mauve
#

I was close Pog

rose jewel
#

world pvp is extremely space whale territory

scenic heart
#

pvp *is * equalized right ? arena

rose jewel
#

yeah arena is equalized

scenic heart
#

sweet sweet

timber mauve
#

Yes, but it’s also dead content. Almost no one does it. YEP

scenic heart
#

arena?

rose jewel
#

i mean

#

the thing you unlock at 26

proud geyser
#

The one thing I find funny about maxroll.gg build guides is like for artist they say to put points into "stroke: sprinkle" and "paint: pouncing tiger" and the like but then in the gameplay/rotation info they say to use "paint: ink well" and "paint: pouncing tiger" as the only 2 skills to use for the leveling build. They also don't max out the 2 skills they say to use even at level 48. It's like ok use "paint: ink well" at level 48 with only 7 points in it not 10 while having "One Stroke" and "Starry Night" at 10 points which we don't tell you to ever use???

hey all! im new into lost ark - i bought a vern pass and completed the hyper express! I am a little lost in what I should be doing. I started out as an arist. There seems to be endless amount of things to focus on so I am a little overwhelmed. Any suggestions on what to focus on - I am in a guild that does raids down but that is it.

scenic heart
#

like, 3v3 arena and all that. surely its not dead..

rose jewel
#

it quite is

scenic heart
#

rip wtf

rose jewel
#

not the most populated thing to do

#

its not unplayable

#

but its also not really populated

scenic heart
#

what ppl doin? chaos dungeons? 💀

rose jewel
#

raids

#

the thing lost ark is known for

rose jewel
#

tripods, runes, skill points, stronghold, daily homework, then you still gotta get into the raids

#

you can just ask here as you face things you dont get

#

but i guess its time to do what you gotta do in an mmo, explore the game

#

besides

#

most of the times, a youtube guide will be way better than what we can tell you in here

#

unless its small easy things to answer

#

engravings for example is hard to explain for a first timer, a video will do it better

neat leaf
#

anyone know why relic books went down in price so much? they've always been around 700 til like 3 days ago

proud geyser
#

Does cash shop have anything that is "must buy" things?

timber mauve
#

No

rose jewel
#

idk

timber mauve
proud geyser
timber mauve
#

Might be called something else. Either way, it’s like the only pack there that’s 1.1k crystals.

proud geyser
timber mauve
#

Maybe they removed it. Idk

proud geyser
#

nothing is 1.1k anything though in packages

timber mauve
#

Either way, next up is the ship skin and ark pass.

timber mauve
#

Yeah

proud geyser
#

oddly I don't see anything called an ark pass

timber mauve
#

Not in the cash shop

proud geyser
#

ahh ok 🙂

#

oh battlepass haha

#

1500 or 3000 O_O and of course no option to buy that many gotta buy 5750 for $69.99 lol which ends up as $105.26 aussie dollars omg

#

never seen exchange rates so stupid before

amber totem
#

yeah aussies get shafted

#

Only spend the money if you are gonna commit to the game though

timber mauve
#

I mean, doesn’t it just use the currency conversion rate?

Anyone have link/info regarding the KRversion-legendary Card pack Selection, that we don't have yet? (What the pack contains)

amber totem

Its $140 for the big pack worth 100 usd

#

Lose 7 dollarydoos 😦

simple owl
#

anyone know how much this is worth?

turbid fossil
#

does anybody help and play with new players or does everybody just stick to grinding high level stuff?

amber totem
#

You'll have to ask in area chat

#

And its highly dependent on what content you are talking about as well.

#

If you're talking about t1 guardians or Abyssal dungeons - Why are you even doing it?
Theres guides to rush through the game to get to T3 and make use of the Punika Powerpass and Hyperexress event available

twin vapor
#

are chaos gates adjusted?

#

I entered one with 6 ppl 😦

amber totem
#

they are equalised content

pseudo atlas
#

they set you to a fixed ilvl regardless of number of people

amber totem
#

Yeah that can happen. Try and go to South Vern. Punika one is iffy

pseudo atlas

if you don't have enough then you're just screwed

@amber totemty

oh whats a good class to choose?

amber totem

Whatever class you think looks cool

turbid fossil
#

theres no meta classes for beginers?

hollow scroll
#

then cry because you didn’t find that instead

amber totem
#

If you like support you can go for Bard, Artist or Paladin. If you wanna DPS take your pick. Lots to choose from

valid tusk
#

for NAE, how much are the gold maps from chaos dungeons generally worth?

#

from what u get from it

amber totem
#

do you mean chaos gates

valid tusk
#

yea

amber totem
#

On NAW they go for like 7k+

valid tusk
#

cause the drops are worth more than 7k?

#

or is there like something else to them that makes them go for so much

amber totem
#

Ive never had one personally so can't answer.

#

One of the people in my guild had one, a 1 person map and got like 20k gold

valid tusk
#

damn...

what a shame, 40 minute queue for t2

ignore bossrush t2

literally just ignore and move on, doesnt matter if you have 10 tickets

#

you will be changing your gems for tier 3 gems soon enough for them to matter

maiden locust
#

i need leapstones

rose jewel
#

a lot more ways to get them

#

mokoko challenge if you still have it i believe gives a lot, daily chaos dung and guardian raid, event shop should have a lot

#

speedrun island route gives plenty if you havent

#

TOWER

#

(if its an alt)

maiden locust
#

what's tower x _ x

rose jewel
#

shadespire, thronespire

#

or was it fatespire

#

whatever, its on any big city

#

if you dont even know what that is, i assume you're new?

#

and on your first char?

maiden locust
#

i don't see leapstone rewards

rose jewel
#

i would be grateful if you answer my questions first so i can get a view of your situation

last swallow
#

Does no one do abyssal dungeon?

rose jewel
#

not low level ones

last swallow
#

Queued for 20 min lol

maiden locust
#

i'm not new and not on my first char, i've done most islands for t2 rewards

rose jewel
#

depends on which

#

then you're new

last swallow
#

Oreha highest one I see

#

1325

#

Oh there is hard for 1370

rose jewel
#

FIRST TIME CLEAR for both towers WONT give you materials, it will give different rewards, such as skill potions, engraving books and other things

simple owl
maiden locust
#

👀

rose jewel
#

after the first clear, alts will receive a lot of materials to hone

#

that's why you dont see any leaps

#

coz you havent cleared it

#

yet

maiden locust
#

ooooh, yea i haven't touched it

#

damn

rose jewel
#

well

#

ignore that for now

#

unless you want a bit of a challenge

#

some floors are fun, some arent

#

you can just ignore it and do what i said

#

ignoring tower ofc

#

event shop has a shitton of leaps weekly

#

idk why you need them when you get like 400 of them a week

#

also island speedrun giving you most, if not all the mats needed to jump to t3

#

and i assume you dont have story express on that char

feral pulsar
#

how do I chat with my party members? I made a party chat but they can't talk in it

rose jewel

you invited them to your party? just TAB on the chat until you see party

maiden locust
bleak fog
#

Does anyone know how it's possible for Party Recovery and Defense to be above 100% or what it's trying to convey?

pseudo atlas
#

it's relative to total party hp

#

that means they healed 178% of the party's hp, which means everyone should probably learn to dodge

proud geyser

So how would I know my character is setup right? Like idk if my engravings are setup well or how to get them setup best for my ilvl. Are gems meant to be a thing at my ilvl? The page is locked until after "the final report" apparently. I also just have random cards equipped because I don't have many. Atm The character is 483.33 ilvl and idk how i'm meant to raise it either

devout granite
#

as for raising your ilvl, since your already 483.33 u should know about honing?

#

if you're asking about how to get mats to hone, then search maxroll speedrun to t3 guide in google

proud geyser
devout granite
#

you'll want to get it to +15

#

have u already done rohendel?

regal path
#

To be 600 ilvl

proud geyser
#

I am looking at a guide on maxroll and it says get it to +8 and then "Transfer into the Abyssal Dungeon legendary set." whatever that means

#

after ilvl 600 is when it says to upgrade stuff to +15 which is after the legendary set stuff

devout granite
#

might be an outdated guide

#

your blue gear will get you to 600

proud geyser
#

Last updated on June 30th, 2022 yeah

#

the gear i'm using is called providence on the bard

#

the community guide has a soloing build for the bard but it says "requires full charming set to work" and there's no soloing build without that 😦

devout granite
#

that's for end game

#

dont worry about that stuff

proud geyser
#

yeah I can't find any soloing builds for bard other than that one lol

lvling content can be done with pretty much anything

The Ultimate Bard Infoset

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

rose jewel
#

just use com. guides

#

go to engraves, they have raid, chaos dungeon and sometimes solo setups

proud geyser
rose jewel
#

i dont even use charming

#

and of course you wont have anything like that if you're starting out

proud geyser
#

exactly lol and the build says it requires that to work 😦 that's why I wanted one that didn't

rose jewel
#

i use salvation and 1 hit all trash mobs

#

i just use preemptive strike for the guaranteed crit

#

otherwise prelude of death + storm and 1shot waves

#

then whatever inbetween

#

and by whatever i mean things like sonic vibration and/or stigma

#

and sometimes soundholic

#

thats what i used pre relic

#

and it always worked just fine for things like chaos dungeon or story dungeons with a lot of trash

proud geyser
#

most of that isn't making sense to me tbh 😦 I need a visual of a build/rotation to make sense of things

rose jewel
#

there is only 1 combo and i just told you the combo

#

the rest are fillers

how many relic mats does bid box at end of valtan/vykas N/H give?

proud geyser
#

Was more just wanting a good build for soloing all the solo content because last I was doing it was a slow struggle in support build

pine plume
#

oh just fresh lvl 50 🙂 don't worry then 🙂 if you want to solo and want a "build guide" then just take the "chaos dungeon" build from community guide and do as close as you can, no worry about rune of tripod level 🙂

proud geyser
#

oh chaos dungeon build in community guide you mean?

pine plume
#

yes 🙂

#

but the solo content is pretty easy even if you re a support. the real "difficulty" will be the learning of the group part of the game 🙂

proud geyser
#

i'm constantly confused when build guides like that bard chaos dungeon build say take 12 levels in Heavenly Tune but then in the instructions for the use of that build they never tell you to cast the skill ever

yes there is a little of comprehension to have by testing 🙂 particuliary for support because the guild focus on the main role of the bard, support, this rotation guide etc concern support. It will not atard on the chaos dungeon or solo content because it's easy and almost obvious

cloud pendant
#

Does the honing buff to 1445 only applies to character with hyper express?

hollow scroll
#

no

#

well yes

#

but its still free of gold for everyone else outside of hyper express YEP

cloud pendant
#

Oh ok

hollow scroll
proud geyser
#

is it actually possible to have 6 skills at level 10 and 2 skills at level 12? I only seem to have enough points for like 5 at level 10 and the 6th skill at level 7. Each skill at level 10 is 48 points i'm more than 100 points short aren't I?

snow wadi
#

From lvl 50 each additional lvl grants u 6 more skill points

#

but you can't level skills to 11 unless you're 55+

#

neither can u level them to 12 unless you're 60 (max level)

#

on top of that there's skill points behind horizontal content

proud geyser
#

yeah but still even all 8 at level 10 is impossible without about 100 more points I think

#

what's horizontal content?

snow wadi
#

While leveling, you dont need all 8 skills

#

Just focus on the ones making your expereience the smoothest

shy yarrow
#

i have max skill points tho

#

and lvl 60

proud geyser
#

408 wow I have 264 haha

shy yarrow

YEP every character lvl you get more, and ofcourse skill point pots give you some too permanently

I mean scrapper fast for me is only tai cuz shock is a bit clunky but it does much better dmg

what do u guys think of artist and paladin?

fallow trail
#

They’re both good

#

They each have their own advantages

shut pasture

Shock Scrapper is more burst oriented but most can struggle with outputting damage on bosses that tend to move a lot, Tai Scrapper is more persistent DPS (smaller numbers but lots of numbers as well) and doesn't get so locked in animations.

nothing is guaranteed except for pick packs, and those are ultra rare to the point of you NEVER open them unless you only lack the number of packs you have

never chase, let them come

if you wanna force them

true that

make as many alts as possible, run as many abysses as possible
