You get access to Argos, the Abyss Raid, at 1370 and the first Legion Raid is Valtan at 1415.

[last swallow]

Should I be doing them though? I have to do purple quests to unlock the raids

[brisk helm]

Ofc

[shut pasture]

Yes.

[brisk helm]

For gold and mats both

[shut pasture]

Legion Raids are the endgame content for this game

[last swallow]

Ohhh ok

I am almost 1415

1410

[frigid prawn]

How much harder will it be to find grps as dps compared to support? Given that I am geared for meta ofc

[shut pasture]

Right now for below 1490 ilvl it might be a little harder as a support to find a group given the abundance of supports in that range for the time being.

[brisk helm]

I'll say try to find a guild it's always very helpful and they might help you learn raids too

Ya

I can dm you

[frigid prawn]

I see

[somber roost]

this made me cry 😦

[frigid prawn]

I think I'll do sorc as main and make a bard down the road if I feel like supporting. I just dig the outfits for sorc more which made my decision to go sorc over bard xD thank u all for answering my stupid questions

[past oriole]

Arghon island? when do these actually reset, it's meant to be now but there'ss all the old 1s still. According to maxroll they should respawn right now?

[vernal junco]

are skill points usually the first thing to focus on as a new player for doing hortizontal content?

[high stone]

In G5 I'm pretty positive, we went in the right shape but we still wiped what is the cause from that in brel

[last swallow]

Any tip for velganos guardian raid?

[past oriole]

skill points and wealth runes depending on your classes

[brisk helm]

Just skip it

Do night fox instead

[past oriole]

keep hitting him if you want the challene overwisse skip it

[brisk helm]

Or if you wanna do it solo/duo

[last swallow]

Ok will just do the night fox

Already cleared leganos a few times but so many wipes

[shut pasture]

Yeah you just do yoho until you get 1415 for Deska

[brisk helm]

Ya random teams kinda sck in that cus people don't really know what to do whenever I tried it noone staggered or used grenades

[amber totem]

Velg is meant to be done solo

Unless you want pain, I'd advise against it

[radiant flame]

You mean at shapes mech? Or the stagger?

If you wiped after stagger you went in the wrong pattern

If you died at shapes someone put the wrong shape in the hole

[last swallow]

Should I be upgrading my ships?

[amber totem]

upgrade estoque

[last swallow]

Or making a specific ship?

[last swallow]

Till what level? Forever?

[amber totem]

You probably won't be able to get past level 7 for now

so just upgrade as much as you can

[maiden locust]

Do your prefer estoque or ghostship 🤔

[amber totem]

he wont have ghostship yet

Estoque and much later Astray are the two best ships you can use. Estoque is a catchall

[maiden locust]

true, but personally would you invest in maxing out which

[amber totem]

i mean if you have the mats max them all

Keep in mind level 7 to level 11 costs like >400k pirate coins just for the mats

[maiden locust]

been living with lvl 4 since release

[amber totem]

yeah. Level 7 is good cos you get 4 slots for crew

anything past that is luxury

I have Astray at 8 for example, and the cost to push forward is like... ~~600k ~~coin

[maiden locust]

wtf

[amber totem]

I over estimated

[maiden locust]

yeah I no way doing that

[amber totem]

Heres the correct amounts

Steel plate, Special steel plate and Essence are the bottle necks. Everything else can be obtained via coins or stronghold

[maiden locust]

that's the amount for maxing after 7?

[amber totem]

thats total

[maiden locust]

Hmm not bad

[amber totem]

Level 8 to 11 only uses steel plates and special steel plates

[maiden locust]

so basically from 1 to 7 I would like 1/4 or 1/3 of those

[amber totem]

7 is easily obtainable

and recommended

[maiden locust]

yeah I will probably upgrade ghostship and estoque to 7

btw is the legendary crew worth it?

[amber totem]

yea

[maiden locust]

40k seems a lot

[regal path]

@maiden locust youu brother do you have idea how to fixe this

[amber totem]

Astray costs like 300k pirate coins just to obtain

[amber totem]

is your rock really 2/10 ?

[regal path]

i will coin flip on it till i get it

[amber totem]

2/10 is dogshit

[regal path]

what you suggset

[amber totem]

not 2/10

7/7 is achieveable

even 7/6 is doable

theres plenty of options for rocks, but you cant use that calculator until you cut a stone that can fit the build

[maiden locust]

first of all, you gotta cut your stone, not second, always first thing to do.
based on your stone, we can try to make tis work

also

since you going leg books on both

it will be easier to fix

[amber totem]

Do you have the +12 books already? It can cost quite a bit of gold

[rose jewel]

books for destro are ultra cheap in general

so is his entire build

[amber totem]

noice

[regal path]

yeah

[amber totem]

sweet

[regal path]

i just need to fixe the points on items

[twin vapor]

is there a platinum field guide here?

[amber totem]

you need to fix your stone first

[bleak nexus]

do i still get the story express rewards f i knowledge transfer?

also, which are the most worth transfers?

[amber totem]

no

[maiden locust]

no

[bleak nexus]

ah damn

[amber totem]

have to do it all manually

[regal path]

i can buy 30 and work on them but i wanna keep eye on market you know to buy items

for a future look

[amber totem]

thats fine

but you can't do anything until you do the stone

[regal path]

i know

[amber totem]

ok

then cut stone and use the best one you have

[regal path]

just wich stone that i will look for first of all with ich stats

[amber totem]

idk whatever the guide says

[maiden locust]

I tell you what, why dont we hypothetically fix it based on you have 7/7 ? and if you got better one then its fine

[rose jewel]

#info-dump has a pic of how you can get 5x3 with which stone combinations

look at it and go from there

the lower the stone the more expensive it will be for the class accesory

[last swallow]

Why does lost ark not mute itself when alt tabbed

[rose jewel]

he wants your attention

theres an option for that iirc

[last swallow]

Ahh yeah i found it

[regal path]

didt find it

[fiery prairie]

i just started playing yesterday on NA east danube, with like 7 hours of progression. Would it be worth it to switch to a more populated server?

[rose jewel]

most important stuff is region wide

unless you care for guilds or gvg

every single server in every single region in the game is dead early game

[fiery prairie]

ok thanks

[regal path]

is this good ?

[maiden locust]

how do i get alot more skillpoints? the build i wanna use that ppl tell me to use requires alot more skill points

[regal path]

buy leveling up

[maiden locust]

what

[maiden locust]

why you stuck with 10/2 xDD

seriously 6/6 7/7 gonna be easier than 10/2 stone xd

[high stone]

oh wiped after stagger, guess we did go in wrong then hmm was pretty positive it was the right one xD thank you

[maiden locust]

is it ok if i dm u in a second ?

[maiden locust]

combat lvl, skill points from una tasks and collectibles

[maiden locust]

sure

[regal path]

check this

[rose jewel]

just fyi

a +2 accesory doesnt exist

[echo owl]

that necklace is literally just a 43

[regal path]

shit xD

[maiden locust]

looks good, just your neck have to be 4/3 or 5/3 theres no 4/2

[echo owl]

its literally in your favor

you can reduce a 5 grudge/3x to 4 grudge/3x

[maiden locust]

you should do some research on pricing of eaccs, if grudge seems high

you can go with grudge on stone

[regal path]

u mean high price ?

[rose jewel]

did you even cut the stone already

[maiden locust]

yes

[rose jewel]

or are you throwing random numbers first

if he already cut the stone, you're making him waste pheons

[regal path]

nah i just wanna make basic numbers so ill coin flip on my stone as much i can

stone with those effects only cost 20G

[pseudo atlas]

the pheon is the actual cost for cheap stones, as well as having to buy more expensive accs

[regal path]

true

[trail creek]

when u start getting preordained gear should u just max out what preordained u have first?

[winter mulch]

Does anyone have a link to the infographic with all brelshaza G6 shape safe spot patterns? I remember seeing a post on reddit of it a while ago but I can't find it anymore 😦

[hollow scroll]

sure you’ll be doing it anyway

go to 17/18 at least

[winter mulch]

NVM found it, if anyone was wondering

[somber roost]

O.o? a mount that crazy i have over 1k play time never saw this

i wonder were the other u get it mmm

oh they sell it lol

[hollow scroll]

i have blue wolf from chaos idk about the rest

maybe red and the white one is from shushire

[last swallow]

Where to get logs and iron ore?

[hollow scroll]

chopping trees and mining rocks

actually serious

[trail creek]

are there certain npcs that are more impt to build rapport with first

[last swallow]

Is there a good spot?

[hollow scroll]

anywhere

you can see on the map which life skills each place can level

[silver mirage]

its a new drop from forpe they added it like 2 or 3 patches ago

[maiden locust]

wow, first time know they drop from chaos

[wise garnet]

What are gold priorities to make your character better?

[tawny dust]

for the rowen mokokos, how are you supposed to get these? i bought the milk but i cant use it (never mind i have to wait an hour)

[fresh terrace]

how do I unlock the chaos line dungeon thing? I've completed the continent quest line, I've read that there should be an npc somewhere near vern chaos dungeons with a purple quest

but I just cant seem to find that

[shy chasm]

stats engravings gems

[balmy plank]

You completed south Vern right? Not just North Vern? It's by That in Candaria Territory

[fresh terrace]

yeah, it ended with me speaking to the sidereels in the inn

I've done it with 3 characters q.q

[balmy plank]

Should start here then

[fresh terrace]

yeah but its not there

[wise garnet]

is there a higher chance to have a successful lv 5 tripod when you have it at lv 4 or is it the same as lv 1

[fresh terrace]

ive completed 40 quests in south vern, this was the last one

[last swallow]

How to increase trade levels without actually mining and logging forever?

[balmy plank]

No

[balmy plank]

You have to do it maually or in the stronghold farm

[gray comet]

whats the ark pass and where can i see it?

[bleak elk]

should be a button on the top right next to minimap

https://puu.sh/JCSdm/c49b2e8deb.png

[gray comet]

wth

[fickle kraken]

why can't I see the gship? o_O

[gray comet]

do i need like max level or sum

[fickle kraken]

wtf.

well this is bs.

o_O

[rigid plank]

My immediate assumption as to why is because you haven't reached lv50 yet to see the ark pass

[fickle kraken]

wat.

oh.

[gray comet]

hmm alrighty thank you :D

[rigid plank]

ghost ship isn't today iirc

[fickle kraken]

oh.

It's showing now.

rip.

[twin vapor]

if theres no one on a pvp island, do i still get rewards?

[vast oriole]

No

[lean whale]

How long does it typically grind the premium power pass ark to max level?

[echo owl]

worse case is like 9 weeks

there's 30 levels, each requiring 150 xp / you get 500 weekly

theres the roster wide missions which help a bit

[lean whale]

I just bought it yesterday and not sure if I have enough time to finish

[vocal anchor]

you have tons of time

[echo owl]

its like 3-4 months

if you do some of the 1 time quests you can get it done easily in 2 months

[blissful coral]

Is there a way to sell lower-tier boss rush tickets, or should I just run them for roster xp?

[amber totem]

they dont just give roster xp. They are good source of character XP, gems, and some other stuff

accept your guild quest for boss rush, and the weekly before you do them

[blissful coral]

I know, I mean like the t2 boss rush after i'm in t3

[amber totem]

dont bother with t2

can only destroy

[blissful coral]

ok ty

I just did my t3 rush, but I noticed I still had a t2 ticket

it does give roster xp btw

[amber totem]

yes

i know

[blissful coral]

Oh i misread above, my bad

I'm scared for the 1490 boss rush when i get there on my bard

[amber totem]

its all easy content

🙂

[tight geode]

Neglected to use frog tokens. What is the most recommended to get if I have 43 tokens?

[brave geyser]

they're just tankier so it's longer rather than bosses being one shot

[last swallow]

How to get basic oreha fusion material

So gated by this material

[shut pasture]

Buy it off the Market or craft it

[last swallow]

My stronghold is too low level at lvl 5

It costs 16g each

Only have 369 gold lol

[shut pasture]

What ilvl are you?

[last swallow]

1410 and 1360

[shut pasture]

Well the last ones you need to get to 1415 shouldn't be too bad with what you have. Weekly reset is Wednesday so you'll be able to get more gold after that.

[last swallow]

What are my gold earning activities? Just guardian raid and abyss raid?

No one does argos normal so haven't been able to do it yet

[shut pasture]

Your gold earning at that point will be from Argos and Abyss Dungeons

[last swallow]

Also haven't done abyss dungeon bc no one is doing it

Matchmaking takes forever

[shut pasture]

You don't matchmake either of those things

You use Party Finder

[wintry mauve]

Farm trade skills mats and sell those if u need

[last swallow]

Ohh I see

Where can I learn party finder terminology?

[wintry mauve]

Like what the titles mean for each party?

[last swallow]

Yeah like what is goose or card run? G1 g2 g3?

[vernal junco]

does the SH honing bonuses stack on top of this growth boost effect?

[wintry mauve]

There’s a lot of stuff to know but usually u can understand them as u start to do the raids and such. Like g1-3 means gate 1-3 r being done. Cards runs r them just doing the dungeon for a chance at the legendary card

[pine agate]

what are the best engravings to get +12 next? thinking a general one other than grudge, i was deciding between keen blunt or cursed doll, any tips?

[shut pasture]

Goose is a new one for me.

Card run means that they are doing it specifically to try and get card drops at the end of the run.

G1, G2, and G3 all mean Gate 1, Gate 2, and Gate 3. Legion Raids all have different Gates which account for different parts of a Legion Commander fight. Each gate typically involving their own different mechanics.

Argos it is called Phases, but same premise.

[shut pasture]

KBW or CD depends on what classes you're running tbh.

[pine agate]

going to rebuild deadeye and building a new gs

[wintry mauve]

I’d say keen blunt if not grudge KW accessories r always so expensive

[shut pasture]

Are you using more that use KBW or are you using more that use CD

[pine agate]

have grudge +12 already

[pine agate]

that was my thought process rn

[wintry mauve]

U don’t rlly need KW tho do u. U seem to have all the class engravings as well

[pine agate]

uh idk bc all the classes i play their interchangeable

yeah but deadeye, gs, and wd the builds end game were going to be like all 5x3+1 so i was wondering what the most efficient between cd or kbw

[soft wing]

what pvp mode do i queue on normal for the most likely to get a match?
currently early in the morning in EU and wanna try pvp for the first time lol but on 22min queue right now
I wish they put "random queue" to get quicker matches for pvp

[wintry mauve]

O ye that’s true I’d say KW then def. Cursed doll stuff ain’t to bad compared to KW

[pine agate]

ight ty man

[wintry mauve]

Well at least for NAW idk what it is in other places

[pine agate]

ya im a naw chud too lol

[storm bear]

somehow my F5 didnt work if Im not pressing ALT, I must press combine key ALT+F5 to make it work. can we change this?

[hidden trout]

TDM usually fastest

[soft wing]

ty

[wintry mauve]

Pvp usually has faster mm during fever time on weekends

[hidden trout]

Usually will take longer outside of the fever time which gives extra rewards, so keep an eye for those times

[soft wing]

how to check fever time? sorry just started few days ago

[wintry mauve]

Check calendar on top left of screen

[soft wing]

ty 😄

[last swallow]

I just did a argos run got carried no idea what was happening all so shiny

[maiden locust]

9/7 has got to be impossible x _ x

how do people even have the pheons

[pine agate]

no one actually has a 9/7 wym lol

[maiden locust]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

what do people have then

[pine agate]

9/5s 7/7s

[maiden locust]

for 5x3+1?

[pine agate]

dont exist, ss with 9/7 are just amazon/sg employees tryna con u to rolling that magical stone

ong

[maiden locust]

[timber mauve]

A 9/7 stone is less than a 1% chance

[maiden locust]

you can't win the lotto if you don't play

[last swallow]

1415 🙌

[timber mauve]

It’s just an investment if you win

[candid lake]

whats f5 again?

[storm bear]

quest item

[candid lake]

and nothing else is reversed ?

[storm bear]

its seems my keyboard, all f5 to 8 must press alt key to activated

[candid lake]

as in alt + key -> key

🤔

[maiden locust]

alt key or the function (fn) key

[storm bear]

this happen when I switch keyboard with no F1 etc key, I just want to test it

[maiden locust]

cuz you would need to switch it in bios to default the function keys instead of the other controls

[storm bear]

and when I put my original keyboard this happen lol

only F5 to F8, the other one is fine

tested, yes I change it

tested F9, its fine without any combined key, only when its F5 to F8, must press ALT to activated Quest item
so weird

its only on my PC, when I play the other PC, its fine, no combined key needed.
I guess I blame that keyboard messing up my game

[amber totem]

just hit alt f4 itll fix it

CD vs KBW, CD has more consistent damage overall but KBW CAN add slightly more damage, sometimes

It really comes down to whether you can deal with CDs negative or not

Arguably in late game parties it shouldn't be a concern with a decent support, but if you're the only back attacker and you don't get any love with shields or heals it can be prohibitive.

Theres a REALLY good google sheet write up on KBW vs CD but I can't find the link anywhere

[last swallow]

How I don't have the guide legion raid quest?

[candid lake]

ive always seen this table

[amber totem]

Yeah thats a good source too, but the sheet I am talking about was like 8 pages long of comparisons and maths

[graceful ledge]

how to do fatespire floor 2 again?

3*

nvm got it

[timber mauve]

I legit just ran all of t1-2 towers two days ago and remember nothing

[graceful ledge]

xD

[timber mauve]

It was on my alt roster, so it was first clear. Waited until I was 1460 with relic gear to do it

[last swallow]

Legion raid locked behind south vern story?

[timber mauve]

Yes

[candid lake]

no it isnt

[last swallow]

On the character that is 1415?

[candid lake]

or wait maybe the guide quest is

[timber mauve]

You must clear south Vern once on your account first.

[candid lake]

🤔

[timber mauve]

It is

[amber totem]

[last swallow]

I have a 1360 that cleared south vern story express

But my 1415 didn't clear south vern only punika pass

Where is the guide quest?

[still otter]

Which class engrav better between shock training and Taijutsu ?

[timber mauve]

Look around for purple quests and in your quest journal.

[amber totem]

Dealers choice they play WAY different

[still otter]

for scrapper

[amber totem]

Like completely different to each other

[last swallow]

Is not in both characters journal

[still otter]

huh?

[candid lake]

did you open the legion raid tab and see if it says you can enter @still otter

[amber totem]

Shock is very slow, back attack only, methodical with some possible downtime with big numbah. Tai is super fast with lots of attacks all the time

[timber mauve]

Did you look around for purple quests, specifically near the legion raid entrance?

[last swallow]

Yeah doesn't exist

[candid lake]

seei f you have this quest under completed

[still otter]

im not in the game now mate, im at work lol

[candid lake]

o

or sorry wrong person

[last swallow]

Maybe 1415 character has to be south vern completed

[candid lake]

idk why i pinged you

[amber totem]

Shock is more expensive to set up by a huge margin as well, over tai

[candid lake]

i meant to ping @last swallow

[timber mauve]

I’ve done legion raids on characters that haven’t done south Vern yet.

[amber totem]

Spec/crit vs Swift/crit

[last swallow]

Ohh I found it

[still otter]

hmmmmmm

[last swallow]

This guy next to thronspire

Has it

[amber totem]

A decent spec/crit necklace with the right engravings you use will be at least 30k

Some go for 200k+

Tai accessories are like 10g each

(exaggeration)

[still otter]

oh, I think I make a choice now lmao

[timber mauve]

Sold a tai acc for 68k a bit ago.

[amber totem]

noice

+3 tai?

[still otter]

So tai with 70% crit 30% swift is better than swift crit?

[amber totem]

50/50 is meta now iirc

[timber mauve]

Swift crit neck 3/5 tai adrenaline

[amber totem]

thats an insane neck

[timber mauve]

It was only 40ish qual. Had it been blue… 200k

[amber totem]

purple

1m

[timber mauve]

Not really, but way more.

Think blue qual was like 120k min.

[amber totem]

68k is still so much gold

im so broke after nerfs

[candid lake]

i remember having 50k gold

but then i used it all on my db

[amber totem]

tai :

[candid lake]

surprisingly i only used like 30k gold on 4 accessories (ofc excluding surge 3, 5 of another engraving) and surge books

quality is all blue +, but i fear the surge accesory

:shivers:

[still otter]

thank for the advice

[timber mauve]

Tai books are expensive

[amber totem]

shock books are ~3.5k naw

last I checked

[timber mauve]

Last I checked tai is like 7k

Or 8k

[amber totem]

dayum

I guess shock is less popular due to difficulty

[timber mauve]

Due to being slow.

If imma play a slow spec class, imma play db or something. At least for me.

Swift tai is

[last swallow]

Do I need to hone past 1415 on chosen gear if legion raid gives me relic?

[wintry mauve]

Well u have to be 1445 to be able to craft relic anyways

[last swallow]

What do u mean by craft? I can't just use the relic drops and hone them?

[wintry mauve]

The relic drops u get r used to craft the gear which u have to be 1445 to be able to craft

[last swallow]

Oh I see they are all accessories so I need to +17 all my chosen gear anyway

[elder anchor]

Is 250% crit dmg PLUS 250% dmg, or a 2.5x dmg multiplier?

[wintry mauve]

The accessories r not the materials used to craft it that’s what u mean. The relic mats used r called demonic beast bones and covetous wing

[solemn plume]

Hey!

I had this wonderful idea but I can't transfer...

is there a method to do it not directly?

or I must have same tier brel in order to transfer?

[pseudo atlas]

can't transfer to honed gear

[amber totem]

Man Tai scrapper, the more I look the more I want to try. IDK if I want to invest in both builds though

[pseudo atlas]

that 85 qual is dead, and you should've just used the quality upgrader on the piece you wanted to upgrade

unless you want to hone that to +20 and then transfer to a fresh brel piece and hone to +15

[nimble marlin]

anyone know what is that ?

[wintry mauve]

Knowledge transfer. U essentially pay gold to skip doing the story quests again.

[nimble marlin]

i know but i can't do it

i can't even pay gold to skip the story

it dosen't allow me

it keep says u have unmet condition

[wintry mauve]

U need to have completed that story again certain amount of times b4 being able to do it

[wintry mauve]

For u I think u need to do it two more times manually

[nimble marlin]

ah gotcha

aighty thanks

[tired wasp]

what are the playstyle differences between the gl specs

[eternal zenith]

Like purple/blue/red gl ?

[tired wasp]

yeah

do they have differences in tankiness/damage

[shy yarrow]

blue is consistent dps non positional, has the highest survivability in the entire game, perma shielded, spec so you are slow but you just afk infront of the boss

red is a positional burst, with a lot of charge and high backend dps skills

has to go crit swift so slightly better overall uptime on buffs and speed

they do about the same dps now, with red being the one that has less build paths now ironically

[dusky robin]

How do I find out how much something is worth if its not on market

[shy yarrow]

blue has the option of going kbw and hallu to be more burst like

[wintry mauve]

Eh I’d say red lancer has a much higher dmg ceiling than blue does tho

[shy yarrow]

you have to guess, if its got history from past 5 days then you can go off that

[wintry mauve]

I play red and I have never had a blue lancer beat me b4

[shy yarrow]

after patch you are going to see more blues doing actual dps

[wintry mauve]

Hope so rn their dmg so smodge

[shy yarrow]

before yeah they were a stagger bot with an occasional shield for the party

[eternal zenith]

Blue > purple > red

[tired wasp]

what do the colors mean

is blue lone knight

[shy yarrow]

blue is combat readiness

lone knight is red,

[tired wasp]

so you use the blue skills?

[shy yarrow]

they go off that because of the skill colours

[near cove]

Are superior oreahs a profitable craft with high demand?

[near cove]

think of it as red=boss dead blue=never dies

[shy yarrow]

can use the tool on lostarkmarket.online to see if they are

[near cove]

it does craft 30 each time right ?

cant see the end of the name in the crafting menu cuz its too long xd

[shy yarrow]

yes

[near cove]

ight ty

solid 400 gold margin each craft not too shabby i must say

[cloud pendant]

is BT more expensive or mayhem in NAW?

[shut pasture]

Books or accessories?

[stray goblet]

bt is more expensive in general cuz u use consumables

[cloud pendant]

both

what consumables?

[stray goblet]

the one that maxes your gauge i dont remember its name

[shut pasture]

Well most Spec accessories tend to be crazy expensive and BT is Spec

[cloud pendant]

do you guys use some sort of checklists to track dailies and weeklies?

which one you find most use friendly ?

[shy yarrow]

spec is expensive for sure, bt is in general going to be more expensive because of that alone

[shut pasture]

Stimulants, but they aren't nearly as necessary since the balance update

[shy yarrow]

lostark-helper.com/checklist is my goto, theres others they do pretty much the same thing

[stray goblet]

oh idk that

[stray goblet]

ingame one

[shy yarrow]

you dont need to use them anymore tbh

you can get gauge from a single rotation, minimal dps loss

[fiery garnet]

how does LWC12 compare to the new DD set?

[pseudo atlas]

1490 oreha stones are 20x craft

it's very dumb that the UI doesn't even show it

[grim moat]

newb here. just finished the yorn main story and im at 600 gs .. not sure what to do now D:

[pseudo atlas]

do chaos dungeon for 802 gear

hone 802 gear to 960 to do feiton

[grim moat]

okay thanks!

hopefully i find a group :p

[pseudo atlas]

solo it

[amber totem]

group for what

[pseudo atlas]

chaos dungeon is solo content at all levels

[cloud pendant]

does anyone have the spreadsheet link where it shows whether it's worth buying boxes from raids?

[amber totem]

Chaos dungeons are always done solo 5ever

[near cove]

1490 is the purple one or some higher tier gold one?

[pseudo atlas]

purple

[near cove]

oh damm it isnt really profitable in that way then

[amber totem]

12.5 per oreha to produce

[pseudo atlas]

cool discord ain't dealing with my photos

[near cove]

well barely

[amber totem]

What they selling for now

[near cove]

its about 40-50 gold profit

[pseudo atlas]

https://lostarkcodex.com/us/recipe/16900025/

[near cove]

33 on euw

[amber totem]

20.5 less tax

[near cove]

but i expect them to go up with brel hm

[pseudo atlas]

you need to check all crafting methods and they're all probably kinda bad profit

[amber totem]

You dont just make like 10 and sell them

If you're gonna sell orehas you sell them in 1000s

[near cove]

there is the chance i get great success true

[pseudo atlas]

selling 1 or 1000 doesn't make any profit if you lose profit from selling 1

[amber totem]

Its not losing profit though

Its making some, miniscule for the effort, profit

[near cove]

idrk tbh i might just save up all my excavating materials for like next class release

[amber totem]

Consdering the amount of time and lifeskill energy required

[near cove]

made like a solid 40k this artist

[pseudo atlas]

did you calculate it out? last time I did it was negative for all crafting mats

[near cove]

which was like 2 weeks of prep

it costs 590 to craft

[pseudo atlas]

compared to just selling the mats

[amber totem]

tax inclusive?

[near cove]

and sells for about 660

[pseudo atlas]

tax inclusive yes

well it was a bit ago and regions could vary

[near cove]

so about 40 gold profit

and ye its sorta little varied region to region

[amber totem]

33 eu

[near cove]

40g in excavating materials is the diff

[amber totem]

20.5 -5% = 19.475 per oreha profit

~20 gold per oreha profit. Thats without comparing it to selling mats though

[pseudo atlas]

well if you did the math then it should be fine

[amber totem]

And without considering the actual TIME cost

Plus needing life skilling pots

[pseudo atlas]

well if it's profitable over selling the mats then it's profitable to just buy the mats and craft too

[amber totem]

EU has wacky mat prices though

arent fish like 600g or some shit

[near cove]

splendid panacea are nice margins as well

[pseudo atlas]

then it obviously wouldn't be profitable to craft at all, instead to just fish and sell it

[amber totem]

blue orehas were 10-11g on NAW, shot up to 17g on artist release

hella profit if you got in early

I think they are down to 15g now

[pseudo atlas]

if excavating gives a 40g profit to craft over selling the mats but fishing gives several hundred for raw mats, the logical move would be to fish and sell the fish and then buy excavating mats and craft orehas to sell for a small profit

make profit on both life skilling and the stronghold action points that aren't being used

[amber totem]

Having an established roster of 6+ that can sell leaps is the easiest way to profit

I've been informed by a guildie that having a roster of 12 and doing double rested rotation of 3 days is the MOST profitable and efficient you can do

but hella investment

[pseudo atlas]

that doesn't really have anything to do with anything though, because you can do both

[amber totem]

Depends on time constraints 🤷‍♂️

A roster of 6 able to do Vykas hard is hella raids, plus dailies. Finding 2+ hours to lifeskill becomes tough

[near cove]

2 hours ?

wot life skill takes 2 hrs

[amber totem]

I mean you get what you put in right

I use the pots when I go do it

[cerulean stone]

is it worth using legendary selection packs to force upgrade to 12 awakening? or save it for 30?

[echo owl]

12 awakening is useless

[cerulean stone]

18 then?

[echo owl]

reasonable

depends how many you’re using and how long term you are

[fiery garnet]

how does DD12/18/30 compare to LWC 12?

[cerulean stone]

wym long term? you mean we can quit the game?

[echo owl]

yes

a lot of people saving selectors for 30 to never use them because they don’t play

it’s quite easy to quit the game

[radiant flame]

#info-dump

[fiery garnet]

ah ty

[cerulean stone]

true, alright thanks 🙂

[shut pasture]

#navigation can help direct you.

[rich leaf]

what was the site to track cards on wandering merchants? im trying to farm deep dive

[rigid plank]

https://lostmerchants.com/

[rich leaf]

thankyou

[night gate]

I don't see the channel channel and roles

[shy yarrow]

you aint got a single role somehow

if you scroll to the top of the channel list see if you can select channels&roles

[left nimbus]

if i change region what should i do so i can keep playing i heard u can be banned if u log from other region

[shy yarrow]

unless you were banned on one region and somehow can play on another then idk

no one gets banned for just playing on 2 different regions

[left nimbus]

no no i wont be living in same area

i will move to other country my bad

[night gate]

I don't see it

[shy yarrow]

well they dont like vpns

[rose jewel]

if the country is not officially supported, use a vpn and gluck in life

if it is, 0 problem whatsoever

[shy yarrow]

idk click around in browse channels or customize community then

you dont have the adventurer role so maybe you have to annoy a mod or do something to get that first

[left nimbus]

ok thx for info 🙂

[rose jewel]

you literally get that yourself if you just follow instructions

idk why i had to give pics of instructions

but here we are

if you dont see the channel, click the blue thingy

it will drop you there

its literally following instructions

[minor warren]

do you lose out on virtue points if you rapport bomb

[rose jewel]

you delay whatever virtues you get from dialogues

but you can get them later

[minor warren]

really?

im max rapport tho on some npcs

[gleaming token]

if i do thronespire on my main do i still get the mats on an alt when I decide to do it?

[faint pagoda]

t3 tower ? if yes then no

[gleaming token]

even if it's another week?

[shy yarrow]

towers dont reset like weeklies

[minor warren]

do you know how to get them later

[restive forge]

Greetings!

I would like to ask if we have a general chat somewhere- as i am playing by myself and all my guildmates died out in my guild.... So i am looking to kinda socialize is the reason why i am asking about general chat

[hollow scroll]

read the tooltip

it’s different for every class

[past oriole]

Any life skill nerds about? I've been hearing it's worth to use legendary/relic in some cases but I'm just using whatever without much thought. Am I missing out on alot here?

[dawn helm]

Are necklaces the only thing with 2 bonuses?

[past oriole]

bracelets

[worn pulsar]

when can you buy accesories without them costing pheons

[past oriole]

by trading in oreha and argos blood you can get legendary accesorries with rng stats

you can also buy relic accessories with brel/clown tokens which is completely rng as well.

[rose jewel]

when? only at t1 and t2, t3 legendary and relic accesories and beyond will always cost pheons

unless you buy them from like... the clown/brel shop

which is completely useless and worthless

they are 100% rng on what they will give

[rich leaf]

im not a super nerd but people buy those when they are maxed lvl at life skill, and sometimes they use it only for the minigame and then swap back to epic tools

personally, not worth to get a relic tool. epic does fine

[past oriole]

That makes sense, equipping a specialised one just for minigames

[rich leaf]

plus the perks are rng, if u get bad perks then its a dead investment

[radiant flame]

Nope not at all worth tbh

1. You need to actually get good rolls on them, which is not guaranteed

2. You will need to repair durability on them, which is actually not cheap

For most people making money from life skill is gated more by how much time they want to invest into it

Rather than by tool quality

Much better to just get the correct rolls on a purple for what you do

Also I suspect people have told you before but unless you are super far into the game I would suggest restarting in EUC if you want to commit to the endgame

[surreal mango]

should i +20 chosen gear or save mats until i can get relic gear ?

(im at 1445)

[past oriole]

212 roster level lol
I just never bothered with life skills much before, I'm doing it now (fishing) because the price on fusion are stupid, I rather craft my own.

[rigid plank]

Legendary to relic is 1:1 transfer so just progress as normal

[radiant flame]

Yeah sure. I would recommend excavation over fishing

It takes less time

And I can’t imagine there’s much competition on EUW

[past oriole]

what stasai said, also you should have other priorities before trying to hone +20 if you're new

@radiant flame which lines should I be looking for? besides super armour

[restive forge]

Question. How can i check when did i make míy character, or how much playtime i got in it?

[surreal mango]

im doin some things like tryin to get skillpoints and doin daylie content

[radiant flame]

For excavation you want a stacking tool with ideally - super armour, speed, basic rewards

Then minigame tool with difficulty and minigame rewards

[marble inlet]

hi

[radiant flame]

You don’t need super armour on minigame because you get it during the minigame anyway

[marble inlet]

anyone wanna do raids w me

[radiant flame]

If you didn’t know the excavation spots are fixed per map so you can just look up where they are in any given map

[past oriole]

There are lfg and text channels specifically for euc, better to ask there

[marble inlet]

people here are usually 20x as cool

[radiant flame]

With leap essence up you can clear 10k energy in a single run through Bellion ruins which takes < 10 minutes

[marble inlet]

wait

im in the wrong chat

i ment to go to #lost-ark-discussions

[past oriole]

ah

[marble inlet]

ppl there are cool

wait

not saying u arent cool

[past oriole]

so 2 tools ideally and switch to the minigame 1 just for mini games

[radiant flame]

Yes

Just like for fishing

But yeah I think excavation is just better and faster

You can also randomly get excavation chests

Which can drop tool crafting kits

[past oriole]

That's good, just had me concerned for a moment thinking you're newbie trying to push gearscore without gear for the content up there

[rose jewel]

https://lostark.game.onstove.com/Library/Tip/UserList?page=1&searchtype=NickName&searchtext=MACAMOCO&ordertype=1&userPageType=1

for excavation points

[radiant flame]

I got an legendary kit for some free gold the other day

[past oriole]

I assume relic kits are uber rare

like relic maps

[radiant flame]

Yes

I mean it’s basically the same concept right, like a gold bar.

Just think of it as a windfall rather than something you can actively farm

[hollow scroll]

secret forest also

but dont tell anyone

[past oriole]

cheers @rose jewel

[surreal mango]

playin since 2~ weeks^^ so yeah i am a newbie

[marble inlet]

how much skillpoints are enough

on artist

[past oriole]

When you decide to push gear score to 1460+ ask around here for somebody to inspect you so you don't waste your gold 👍

[graceful ledge]

what is this?

i got it from fishing

[past oriole]

my artist has alot of excess, levels with 0 skill point potions would cover it honestly.

[rigid plank]

u only need like full lv10, 1 lv7 or full lv10 to be sufficient for artist

[rose jewel]

a place where you get a pretty massive amount of mats on a 15min run

but

you should watch a guide

[graceful ledge]

15min run

[rose jewel]

its like a dungeon full of gathering mats

[radiant flame]

You need 30 foraging for it to be worthwhile

[rose jewel]

you do certain things and boom, massive income

[radiant flame]

But if you know what you’re doing, you can get 10k per plat field

Easily

[graceful ledge]

huh

idrk life skills im just fishing

lol

[radiant flame]

Which is more than doing a legion raid

It’s worth pushing foraging for that reason alone

[graceful ledge]

ugh

i dont even have a lvl 30 skill lol

[radiant flame]

🤷🏻‍♂️

[rose jewel]

with time

[graceful ledge]

cant do the ticket with just fishing?

[rose jewel]

not even close to being as worth as gathering

just save it for later

i got like 10 of those

[graceful ledge]

ok ig

[hollow scroll]

im still foraging for last world leaf

[graceful ledge]

idk if i ever wanna do other life skills tho xD

[rose jewel]

trust me

gathering is actually fun once you reach 30

[hollow scroll]

worth it

[rose jewel]

then you go to plat fields

you just zoom from plant to plant

[hollow scroll]

no need to push too hard though its just something you do when you have time

[rose jewel]

besides life skill energy being on a 2day cd when empty

so its not like you will be sitting 10hrs a day there

(2day to refill)

[hollow scroll]

im picking flowers during story express to make it easier on the mind

ill get #68 leaf one day

[marble inlet]

signum and waiting

ur both like mad tryhards, right?

who give coach

[hollow scroll]

no

[rich leaf]

lmfao

[hollow scroll]

i barely play atm only dance in vern

or drink tea

[marble inlet]

oh

but do u know how to do raids

i need to do em today

[rose jewel]

no, im bad

[marble inlet]

i swear u guys are capping

😠

[hollow scroll]

i ride a bus

why play when you can pay someone else to do it for you

[fallow trail]

If you actually don’t know how to do raids, I’ll help you out

[restive forge]

I am looking for help-

[marble inlet]

ye i dunno

i dm you

[fallow trail]

You’ve come to the right place

Ask your question

[restive forge]

Inhales You might not be able to help on this one.

[rose jewel]

he prob wants 100M dollars

[marble inlet]

wait i do too

[rose jewel]

or he just wants to ask something

[marble inlet]

[rose jewel]

you never know

[restive forge]

Is there anyone willing to take me under their wings, Guide me and help me learn about the game, socializing and whatnot-? (I am terribly sorry for this dumb question) ||I am bad at learning shit so i apologize beforehand||

I tried

[marble inlet]

ayo u should just join a guild n go from there if you wanna socialize

[fallow trail]

You don’t need to socialize tbh like other mmorpgs

[hollow scroll]

helps though

[fallow trail]

It’s not required tbh

Yeah it does

[rose jewel]

but it helps

[fallow trail]

I play NAW lmao

[hollow scroll]

kinda boring to play mmo solo

[marble inlet]

also assassin check dm

[restive forge]

I... have a feeling that i might have started a debate.

I would like to apologize i am going to delete what i wrote.

[graceful ledge]

[restive forge]

So there wont be no arguements

[rose jewel]

dude, take it easy

[hollow scroll]

we pay no mind to NAW or EUW

[rose jewel]

no need to be scared

[graceful ledge]

chill xD we won't bite!

[restive forge]

I... doubt that.

[rose jewel]

yes im ugly but i dont bite

but i also bait

or something

[winter hawk]

We just bark, not bite

[rose jewel]

i cant english

[winter hawk]

Except bees, i like to bite bees

[graceful ledge]

@.@

[fallow trail]

Nah, NAW, plus I play Bergstrom lol

[rich leaf]

bro ur kinda chonky, u dont just bite, u swallow

[restive forge]

I think ima just skadoodle away.

[winter hawk]

And step on them

[rose jewel]

he is actually scared

come here dude

you did the first step already

[graceful ledge]

signum got candy, dont be scared jkjk

[rose jewel]

i ate it all :c

[winter hawk]

Who said candy

[fallow trail]

So did that guy ever ask his question lol

[rose jewel]

he did

[fallow trail]

Oh yeah

Nvm

Short term memory loss

[rose jewel]

tldr he wants 1 person to teach him da weis

[graceful ledge]

i learnt all my raids from learning lobbies so

[fallow trail]

Hopefully he has high enough roster level

And a good build

[rose jewel]

if i didnt work 10hrs a day and had things to do related to family and stuff and besides having my daily hw on LA, i could prob teach him

but alas

[winter hawk]

Too much weed

[rose jewel]

also my english sucks

[fallow trail]

Too much lush reed island more like

[graceful ledge]

oh my what is considered high enough

[fallow trail]

Hopefully roster level 100 or above

Otherwise he’ll have to make his own party

[graceful ledge]

i mean

he can also join learning discs~

cuz im roster like 67

and i got like all my raids done this week

[fallow trail]

Nice

[graceful ledge]

i would get gatekept so badly if i try to lfg

[rose jewel]

theres still good people in this world

[graceful ledge]

even tho i have yearning and good set up n all

[silk shard]

Like you

[graceful ledge]

partially cuz too many supports atm

[fallow trail]

Yeah

[graceful ledge]

but stil lol

ppl take the no relic set bard instead of me

[fallow trail]

Signum helps people 24/7 in this channel

[maiden locust]

whats the cheap sorc build? swift instant reflux?

[rose jewel]

i try to help*

sometimes they run

[restive forge]

I am back, I apologize for quickly leaving but i am kind of afraid to interact with new people not knowing who to trust and who not to.

[rose jewel]

see above

oh

hes back

❤️

[restive forge]

Let me just read things back. Let me get my glasses.

Allright, Let's see,

[radiant flame]

Swift igniter is probably cheapest, though slightly off meta

[restive forge]

Yes i am.

[graceful ledge]

how so? we're just chillin here lol

[radiant flame]

Otherwise yeah you can play some garbo reflux 🙈

[restive forge]

I dont like to fall for jokes. p-p"

[graceful ledge]

i mean id say most ppl in this channel will answer you seriously, so dont worry

[restive forge]

Felt that.

[fallow trail]

We are here to help

[graceful ledge]

mhm

[silk shard]

You a scary person

[graceful ledge]

[restive forge]

Cant decide if thats for real or just F-kin with ppl

[restive forge]

how-

[silk shard]

Its always a bit of both, but this channel is mostly serious help

[graceful ledge]

i mean, im not sure what experiences u had before, but people here are nice

[graceful ledge]

by answering ya questions if ya have any :D

[restive forge]

Ah, I will keep that in mind!

[graceful ledge]

i remember asking questions here every 5 minutes

in fact

ima ask one rn

why are ppl linking random stuffs in the chat lol

[restive forge]

Not.... pleasent to say tthe least.

[restive forge]

i already said my question TwT"

Did not recive an awnser so far.

[silk shard]

Someone probably linked a island soul

[graceful ledge]

well it's a broad question, you can just ask any specific questions that you have when you're confused about something here, people will help

[graceful ledge]

how does an island soul lead to all of that @.@

[plain tendon]

So I Changed Factions in Rowen and now I can't get back into Regarbank ?? All teleports are unavialable lol

[graceful ledge]

Rowen seems to be a complicated place lol, i havent been there qwq

[silk shard]

Cause people genuinly get annoyed when people link they got one

So they usually respond back with linking random stuff

[graceful ledge]

i see lol

[rose jewel]

"haha look im luckier than yall"

its what i feel they say

[graceful ledge]

i dont pay attention to aarea chat normally

so thats a new one

[restive forge]

Ah, I see. In that case i guess i dont know what else to say because i just returned to the game after a year or so of break or more i cant tell anymore. Started the game back when the game just began. I had a guild but everyone have already left or have disbanded/not active. The discord group have completelly died off and i am just by myself trying to keep the guild working. And with that everyone i used to know is gone and i just am by myself wanting to interact with people but really bad at doing so. Sooo you get the idea. Regardless of that is why i asked if someone could lift me up and pull under their wing to provide me guidance on the game as i forgotten most of the things there is to know about it. However considering of what i am told in lost ark discussions and in here i do not know if i should even consider trying as i am unsure now about the people on here if i could get to find someone who would be willing to waste their time to help me.

I have tried to explain it to some extent.

[eternal zenith]

i mean it's because you change faction, so you havent unlock the other faction teleport site

[restive forge]

I do not know if it helps to specify it in any way.

[eternal zenith]

so i think you might have to go unlock them manually "again" @plain tendon

[plain tendon]

@eternal zenith Yes I guess. Kinda stuck now for a week lol

[graceful ledge]

i mean, you don't quite need aa specific person to guide u all the time, you just ask questions here about the game when you get them, and ther will always be someone here to answer
i'm also a returnee so i feel ya

what's ur current ilvl?

or how's the roster looking like

[restive forge]

give me a minute

[graceful ledge]

okie

[restive forge]

And rooster. how can i check that?

is this what you mean?

[eternal zenith]

well shet you have "Alot" of catching up to do mate

[restive forge]

This is why i said, i just returned.

after years.

[graceful ledge]

ok so

my (personal) suggestion is to re-level a new chara with story express for a punika pass + access to hyper express and tier 3 content

not sure if that aligns with others here

[bleak elk]

this might be abit of an exaggeration 🤔 lost ark has only been out for like 13 months

[graceful ledge]

i went back to game at ilvl 402, they arent that far behind

:p

[restive forge]

Feels like it haha

[rose jewel]

its more than 1 year

so he got a point

[graceful ledge]

but ye id say look at how the classes are now

[rose jewel]

1.1 years

[graceful ledge]

pick up one and level w story express (u can skip most of it with shift G since u leveled a chara to 50 already)

[restive forge]

Well uh i dont know anything about that as i dont want to make a new character.

ah

[graceful ledge]

well

getting to t3 without makin a new chara huh, i guess u can also do it the long way and follow the speedrun to t3 guide?

[graceful ledge]

any particular reason btw

[restive forge]

._. i... dont know how to feel about speedruns as it feels like cheating

[graceful ledge]

well

its not really

speed running

its basically "what you need to do to get to tier 3"

they just name it that way

[bleak elk]

lost ark is a game where t1 and t2 are basically around 20% of the content of the entire game

the other 80% is at t3

[floral barn]

Is it worth it to hone your weapon pass 1490 pre Brel gear?

[graceful ledge]

id say less than 20%

[rose jewel]

2% and we have a deal

[restive forge]

I dont want to because i feel like i havent played enough to be able to do such a thing, As i havent learned about the mechanics and so on and so forth, meaning i would just have a character i will probably never use so i might as well not do as so. I know it makes no sense however i dont feel like its fair towards the character itself. I already feel bad about not playing with the character i made making him wait for so long.

[bleak elk]

unless you care about the lore and following the storyline extremely closely and slowly progressing it, theres no point slugging around in t1/t2

[restive forge]

I kind of do-

[graceful ledge]

i mean im not telling u to abandon ur chara-

xD

[rose jewel]

worth is kind of subjective, i would personally not do it

craft armors, slowly get that ilv to reach 1520 and run 1-6

[bleak elk]

feel free to progress at your own pace then, but bear in mind you probably wont find anyone to play with till you hit t3

[rose jewel]

besides, unless you are expremely focused on getting mvp, brel has a LOT of mechanics where you gotta hold dps

[restive forge]

that is.. depressing

[rose jewel]

i would get weapon last (i did)

[graceful ledge]

well it's just how it works, getting to t3 is super easy and theres almost no point in staying below that

[eternal zenith]

to tell you the true, tier 1 to tier 3 and doing side stuff is the most fun and interesting thing in LA

[graceful ledge]

but yea its all subjective

[bleak elk]

thats completely subjective

[restive forge]

so basicly i am forced to play in a certain way to be able to interact with other people and otherwise i will not be looked at in any way as i am worthless without the nesseseary item level.

Got it.

Altrough its a bit unforgiving.

[graceful ledge]

well i mean, thats a bit extreme of a view~

[floral barn]

I had the same thought. But I didn't know how the conversions work to Brel gear and whether that made it less worth resources-wise

[graceful ledge]

thers just not many things to do as a group before tier 3

[rose jewel]

uhh

[bleak elk]

if you value any sort of multiplayer experience, slugging it out in t1/t2 is not the way to go, t1/t2 is basically just a "teaching phase" of the game

[restive forge]

Welp, i dont really see things positivelly most of the time so i apologize if it may be a bit raw ^^;

[rose jewel]

you use a SH*T more resources going 20>21 valtan instead of 20 / 12>onwards

besides weapon takes 100 brel mats

armors 40

[restive forge]

I do not understand thoose terms

[graceful ledge]

but yea getting to t3 wont take u long

[rose jewel]

and you're 3% tapping your weapon

instead of waiting for a 10%

also, 21+ takes around 3x the mats to pity (100 artias) worse case scenario

def not worth by a long shot

[graceful ledge]

which?

[rose jewel]

btw im answering freckled

[restive forge]

-> Requirements, Materials, and all that.

[graceful ledge]

oh those r for honing

[bleak elk]

hes not referring to you

[restive forge]

What is honing

ah

okay

[graceful ledge]

leveling your gear

to have higher ilvl

[restive forge]

ah.

[rose jewel]

you honed your gear before you took your break for 1year

[restive forge]

i mean i been collecting those red and blue gems

[restive forge]

probably.

[rose jewel]

you should quickly familiarize with it once you go to the honing npc

not probably, you quite certainly did

otherwise you would be sitting at 302

[bleak elk]

tldr, if you dont care about multiplayer experience of lost ark or endgame dungeons/raids, feel free to slowly progress lore/story in t1/t2

if you value the multiplayer experience then you should push to t3 as quickly as you can

t1 t2 is essentialy just prepares you for t3

[rose jewel]

so, basic things like that should take you seconds to remember

[restive forge]

okay

[rose jewel]

t1/t2 is a very long tutorial

its practically a solo game now

[bleak elk]

yeah its an extended tutorial

[graceful ledge]

except story express do be skipping the tutorial atm lul

[rose jewel]

but he said he doesnt wanna make another char

[graceful ledge]

ye

in that case its gonna be a long adventure filled with sailing, islands, errands, honing, and hoping you get next tier gear from chaos dungeon

[median mountain]

anyone know a decent place to excavate t3 stuff? better than secret colony at least

[restive forge]

just.. forget it.

[bleak elk]

south vern

[rose jewel]

yeah i mean people have fun in different ways

[worldly vapor]

is there a way to increase my fov loading? aka i pop into feiton and i have to wait a bit to see the giant. while some people just appear and see it right away. is it SSD/HDD?
