theres an amazing text at the top called "Select 1", you have to press the item you want before claiming
are all the leg. runes from trade merchants adventurer's seals
not all of them
Overwhelm, Conviction and Judgement come from seals.
Overwhelm comes from Chaos line as well though.
i just meant like, adventurer seals specifically
is it bad to just haphazardly convert raid and the third one to adventurer seals
Man going from destroyer to artist made me realise im fucking bad at dodging
My poor little artist wont ever walk again after being run over so much in a single fight
have a read of the link I sent.
Its certainly a big change. If you ever add a Gunslinger you'll appreciate dodging much more. She takes SO much damage.
I got hit and lost 3/4 my hp
I assume thats without grudge?
And i legit had to open my sheet to make sure i was wearing equipment
Grudge on artist 
Just shield, 
Maybe i snuggle up to the boss to much
As long as you're applying your stuff you can stand anywhere
I was at some points just straight up auto attacking like a madman
Cause everything on cd cause no gems yet
yeah auto attacks not worth dying over
When you get high swiftness you'll run out of mana as well, you basically just afk

Yeah i come from wow healing where there is no downtime
I guess i need to rewire for la and accept i dont need to be doing damage at all times
Yep! Supporting is much different here for sure. As long as you manage your buffs well you'll find yourself on the MVP board every other time
What ilvl are you up to now for your roster
Destroyer is 1445 with hyper express and artist is like 1390 and some change
I got a 1370 summoner but i dont really like her tbh
Not at all what i expected when i picked a class named "summoner"
The hard thing with Lost ark classes is you don't really know how they feel until you get full relic set
Master summoner could fit your idea of summoner but jeez is that expensive to set up
emp arcana > summoner
trust
No relic set is going to make summoner in what i expected when i first made her
can someone tell me again what the guaranteed drops are from a legendary chaos gate map?
Iirc, 8 purple pouches, 4x solar protections & how many of the green & blue solars?
or if there is a website for it?
what did you expect?
A pet based class
Yeh summoner is a pet class but its not the type i expected when i made her 
anyone know or?
On the Valtan raid what does orbs x2 mean?
at 30 and 15 bars the orb mechanic is going to be done normally without wei cheese
so you each eat an orb in order and stagger the boss
Okay thank you, this is gate one right?
yes
let me check
in the master sheet
2 pouches, 3 green 2 blue 1 purp 10 lvl 1 gems x4
Bought gold for the first time via the currency exchange for an outfit i saw on the mb, saw theres a deposit method so i wont be getting the gold until 3 days later? is there someway to make this faster? a bit worried the outfit might get sold out...
no
wdym ''x4'' ?
oh, nvm.

ty.
there should be a decent amount of any skins on the market, if they dont get sold they get relisted, if they get sold more are there, quite sure
oh really? i sure hope so, it says theres only 5 available so i can't help but to worry
š¤
maybe 5 for that price
but i doubt they will be sold in 3 days, hopefully
or the rest got expired and need to be relisted
let's hope 
GUYS WHAT I DO
you lament your decisions and decide to use the quality upgrader next time
hone it, you already messed up by crafting a new one anyways
oh its also not a brel piece
double fucked
well, don't do that that's just throwing cash down the drain
its not much of an upgrade anyways
just another player who decided to recraft or upgrade their lower relic after transferring to upper relic

How are we supposed to respond to that? 
"Nice, welcome to the game, wats the problem fren?"
what u need help/advice with
LMAO, okay so i have no idea what's going on, my wife plays this so i decided to hop on- i cash shop andied my ass to 50- what can i do now and would anyone be willing to teach someone on voice coms?
What did you buy exactly?
im guessing a powerpass, but which one
There are different boosts in the game, each will require different advice on what to do next.
do you have a screenshot of where you are now. like a ss of the map or a ss of where your character is
Rohendel Pass
ok so
what do i do now in LA
for more progression aside from Chaos dungeons
i can't fin a group for legion riads
or just raids in general
Find a guild then find a group for raids 
why does my lost ark lag so bad? I've already done that thing where you make LA a high prio and and the anti cheat shit low prio
but now its just acting up again
I have a 3070, 5600x, ssd so it shouldn't be a hardware issue
drivers updated as well
did you try to find a guild from in-game or from here? @snow glacier
I lag on a 3080 and an i7. Itās just UE3 being shit. Notexturestreaming helps tho.
in-game but I mostly want to make money and legion raids don't really do that.
you mean gold? what your item level?
Donāt look for guilds in game. Check #guild-recruitment
1450 rn
ill check that out thanks
I mainly use my lifeskilling via foraging to get my gold
Or actually, you can try to speak in area chat during field boss and chaos gate times when thereās a bunch of people around.
looking for guild in-game is more of a hit or miss and there is a join guild cooldown when u leave. finding one here is way better as they have a higher chance of being social or do things in group
sooo since I can't do anything on my main, should i focus on gearing my alt?
i am currently leveling my stronghold so its got upgraddes and stuff
btw do know that while upgrading your stronghold is good, as long as you are able to craft the things you want to craft you dont have to keep upgrading your stronghold
im not even that high
rn im only 29.
mine is 49 and ive been playing since release
Wha, how?
All I do are dispatches. I donāt even craft anything 
Took a four month break and Iām at 70
idk, i only use stronghold to craft my oreha stones and dispatches every now and then. and i guess pet farm. i dont use it for anything else and i was already doing those things when my stronghold was in the 30+
im not really into housing so i never did that
I donāt even do pet farm. I legit just do dispatches.
Tbh, idk what the pet farm even is.
pet farm doesn't even give stronghold exp afaik
just crafting and dispatches, and you can just dispatch every day and hit 70 eventually
I just buy oreha, crafting is lame 
i just got my 1340 stuff from the story express. Is this the set i want to upgrade?
Yes
might as well use the farm to craft oreha if you aren't otherwise using life skills
Yep, you can now use the hyper express event and juice yourself to the moon
Wait are you doing hyper express now?
i just got my 1340 items after the story
got me to 1450 pretty quick from 1415
Does story express give chosen gear?
no
Yes, just slap on what you got from story express and use the hyper express to juice yourself.
Yes
can someone preview what hyper express gives
You can see it in game tho 
so what should I do to make money now?
Raids
cant do those
Selling stuff
well damn
Idk man, I got no issue getting into 12+ raids per week on any of my characters.
Alot of mats. Stupid PC just froze and crashed on me right now so I can't ss
idk how i can't evven get into 1
Why can't you do raids? Too low iLevel?
Is your build fucked? Ilvl? Roster lvl?
u can only do raids when ur the right ilvl
that shouldnt be the case either
What raid are you trying to do?
if your build is fucked then it would absolutely be an issue getting into raids
they would of said something
Thereās definitely more than one raid in the game 
my build is not fucked
Endgame in this game is raids. There is more then one
its remaining energy
that says literally nothing
So I are trying to get into valtan?
Iām very confused.
yea the only legion raid
You unlock raids depending on your item level
massive holes in the story here so good luck with that i guess
Let me give you a lest of raids we have
Yeah, idk wtf is going on.
im tryna get into valtan and i can't find a learning party
Valtan normal 1415, Vykas normal 1430, Valtan Hard 1445, Vykas Hard 1460, Clown 1475, Brelshaza 1490, Brelshaza hard(soon). We definitely have more then 1
In order of difficulty
yeh im tryna get into valtan hard
im 1450 with 4 engravings atm
i couild use my card to get a 7/7 to get 5 but its hard.
i need so much gold to buy pheon
U should definitely be able to get into valtan with 1450 4x3
Are you maybe trying to apply into parties that have really high gear players?
no theres just no learning parties
Orb means the orb stagger mech in g1 valtan.
No idea what the 123 is either just ignore it
idk what that involves im assuming its in the video
You can cheese with Wei, but sometimes people will want to do first orbs then Wei second orbs or orbs both times. Orbs is faster, but Wei is easier.
There is a discord dedicated to do raid learning parties though, can't remember the name of it
Just make sure to watch a video on mechs and hop on in. If you see people tying numbers in chat, theyāre called out in what order theyāre gonna grab orbs.
Tbh if you die, itās not a big deal. Just make sure not to scuff g1 and youāre chilling.
G1 is the hardest part of that raid
Itās pretty annoying
Valtan G1 and Vykas g1
Though, Iāve never done vykas so idk about that one.
G1 is the Vykas gate that breaks most group because of orbs too. Just like valtan lol
Except u can't cheese it in vykas
I just kick anyone that doesnāt know what theyāre doing in g1 valtan.
Pretty easy to figure out whoās messing up.
If they ask, then Iāll teach them. But if they just fuŃk everything up pull after pull⦠Iāll just kick.
Are u NAEast?
Are u in T3 yet(punnika or southVern)
i just finished punika
If you have your punnika gear you can salvage your t2and t1 stuff.
If you have t3 gear and armor you can gear transfer the t2 +15 weapon and armor onto it
The abyssal weekly gives xp?
the chosen gear counts as t3 right
let me know next time you want a learning party, I'd like to learn with you as well. I am in the process of learning Vykas, and I am still learning Valtan p2. I made it all the way to ghost mode yesterday.
yeah just started but not sure what to do with materials
just hone until i run out?
If u have chosen gear (1340), yeah just hone it up with mats they give you
is there a stopping point or no
Hyper express helps you hone up to 1445
hi, what ilvl does argoes no longer give gold?
Before 1445 it increases your success chance by alot
hi guys
1475 i believe
1475
i want to know what should i do to start buying from market everytime i try to buy something it says you need trust status
Oh yeah at 1475 Argos no longer give gold and you unlock clown which gives more gold then Argos
clown also way harder than argos :/
bro, yea the clown seems hard as hell...
Yep
quick question: you can skip rohendel and feiton right
Clown is indeed pure pain to the uninitiated
Yes
ok good
Not sure if u are forced to do them if it's ur first time but ur alts can skip them
Is this an alt or main? Or are u using story express
this is a new alt
Wait is this thing saying to go to vern u have to go to rehendel?
nah thats just ocean liner
should i just disregard all the guides because of the hyper express
Ah
ill see if i can take the ocean liner from shushire
ok yeah it lets me take the ocean liner from shushire
but not from rohendel
but i can go to shushire from rohendel?
weird
what guides
mainly the gear progression guide thats linked somewher eon the discord
the cheese for getting 1415 as cheap as possible?
it ends up not mattering anymore since youre gonna need to hone everything for 1445 anyway
Oh just bring all your gear to 1445(+17). After 1445 u can craft the gear seat your class uses
no like upgrade equipment to x, then get raid gear stuff
and 1415 is significantly easier now
aight ill do that first
just get to 1445 and get your relic set
The chosen gear is already a raid gear
you dont need argos gear
how do i use una's instant complete ticket?
you can if you want but its a waste of leapstones (you can exchange argos' blood for leapstones)
you need to have finished it at least once manually
then when you accept the una the button to accept it will say finish
letting you use the ticket
Before this patch u would get a different gear that u have to 1370 to get raid chosen gear. This patch gives u the chosen gear so just hone that up to 1445 and craft the relic set once u get to 1445
^
thanks!
the story express and powerpass both give you chosen legendary gear at 1340
usually youd only get that at 1370
if you were to manually get an alt to 1340 youd have no way of getting legendary gear until 1370, so youd have to get it then
The gear guide doesn't take this event into account since it was made before it so ur gonna be skipping most of it
whats the best ship to get?
astray
then estoque
i mean astray is best, next best is estoque
others are more specialised
Before u craft any new gear it's best to ask here just to be sure. The game gives u a lot of freedom in what u can craft but that also means a lot of ways to lose all of your gold
i have 0 gold rn but ill be sure to
u need to get trusted status on steam, 2fa on mobile and a 5$+ purchase and up to 30 day wait time
thanks!
Onces u get to 1370 you can do Argos and Oreha hard abyss to make some gold
you can also sell guardian raid leapstone to make a lot of gold
gems are also a good source of gold
and a waste of silver if you try to roll them unless you have no gems (i like to sell gems i get and buy the ones i need)
And I like to roll all of my gems and never buy from the market. Don't be like me, be smart
what in gods name do i do with any of these? they dont have the stats that i need
silver is expendable, you can use it like a gremlin for rerolls if you want
except for the gems ofc
dismantle
idk man
later on honing take soo much silver
and unless you have a lot of chars doing chaos every day then your silver income isnt that high
lopang exists and nets you free silver for no effort, but if you are constantly out of silver then sure, but use it as a resource
If they don't have what u need/want, dismantle them. The accs give guardian and destruction stones and the stone of soaring give powders that u can exchange for more stone once u have enough
lopang is boring to do and requires you to have characters you dont want to push
is that better than yeeting them to the auction house?
its basically just waiting in loading screen for like 20k silver per day per char you do it on
a lot of garbo accessories wont be bought
That would depends if they have stats that other classes might want
stats + engravings
U can check and look at recent purchases and see if people have bought any before
i have an earring with spec and +3 on demonic impusle
but you have a daily listing limit and it takes a lot longer to list them all than it does to just press dismantle
What the other engraving?
If it's a plus 3 with another good one if might be worth something but if it's +3 with a useless engraving then u most likely won't sell it
+2 KBW and +3 MS red
that might sell but unlikely
should use this for ur auto dismantle + this #info-dump message
ctrl + right click it and hit search. then go under recent prices
but change item rank to purple
what engraving support should i use for shadow hunter
recent prices are the prices that people last bought it at
check the shadowhunter community guide for engravings
itll be pinned in the shadowhunter channel
/shadowhunter
he doesnt seem to have a channel role yet
my bad is there a bot channel
thanks! i guess i'll jsut dismantle it. dont really know much about gold income yet
its fine
cuz there isnt actually one lol
@fiery prairie be sure to select which class you have to unlock the class exclusive channels
thats why we have the little thing beside our name that says which class we main
ah i thought it was a deco
the are alot of classes in the game, so to keep the discord a little clean only people that play specific classes can see the channels for those classes
did you buy the chest at the end?
yes
that should give you a total of 29 bones. armor cost 10 each and weapon cost 25. depending on your class you might need valtan or Vykas mats to craft your weapon
every gear set uses a mixture of both bosses to get a full 6set
also remember to check your roles just like i told Lexx to unlock class specific channels, you will be able to get more class specific type help in there
you dont want to craft the wrong weapon either so make sure you know what set your class needs/want. if a guide tells you u need a specific set. double check with people just to be safe @snow glacier
rn i just want to figure out how im gonna get 5 engravings with my 5/8 stone
each class have multiple build they can go and each build uses diferrent sets
i got 5 grudge and 8 super charge
will the hyper/story express give me enough to get 1445 or will i have to figure out where to get mats
it doesnt give you all the mats needed but itll give you a lot
you need to get a little bit yourself
it gives enough if you have average rng. if you have really really bad rng then u might need a little more
i had some pretty bad luck though, i pitied a few pieces
i built 90 failstacks tryna get a pri to a DUO
u cant
min is 7/6
with 2 12x books
and i get the materials through chaos dungeons and guardian raids?
i think you need at least 7/7 rock to only need 1 +12 book#
yes
i made a 9/5 stone with 1 legendary engrav and epic engraving into a 5x3
but i doubt he has 2 legendary books yet
9/5 is basically a 7/7
...true
just need to rearrange your setup a bit for a 9/5
he is new and just made it to 1450. definitly dont have enough gold to buy 20 legendary books
what id do is make a setup as if i had a +12 book
im a founder as well but yea theres no way to make enough gold rn aside from grinding out the strong hold
then buy the +12 book later to make it a 5x3
1450 cucked my abyssal dungeon runs
u stop getting gold in abysal(oreha) at 1415, you stop getting gold from argos at 1475
also if you are running argos, dont buy the extra loot. u dont really need it
argos? that is legendary mats. you are trying to get relic mats if you want to make a 5x3
you wont make a 5x3 is argos mats so u are just wasting gold on mats that most people dont buy
not sure why even support needs to hone their gears, I just want to get in and help people, wasn't planning to do any dmg at all.
because no one would make a dps if support was free. everyone would just have supports
no i meant honing mats
the yellow circle means its worth if you need the mats to hone (EUC prices)
New player here, what class shall I pick to avoid being bullied
bard
thats the spreadsheet if you wanna make a copy, its not mine
i think the question is what class to avoid from being bullied
I found it stressful that you have keep pressing that hone button and 9/10 times are pretty much failure.
but this community isnt that toxic
its not about the money
if support was free people would still play dps
Someone just told me community 10/10 toxic
I won't play dps even if it's free, it's just not my style tbh. I tried a summoner and sharpshooter, it's fine but I am not enjoying it.
š„¹
but why would i waste gold on a dps if i could just play support and still play the latest content?
yeah dps is just more fun (or maybe its because the only support i played was pally)
i play the game for the classes, not for the raids
id rather play deskaluda all day with fun classes than to play brel with a paladin
isnt that the thing though. you play the class you want and they all cost the same for everyone to hone
I just don't want to spend time receiving countless honing failed messages. I'd rather spend my gold elsewhere if I have a choice. That isn't fun.
you can do 3 different legions per week per character
and i get the gold from each as well?
max of 6 chars btw
yes, but you cant enter a raid after you already cleared it
you shouldnt think of it as honing failed
yea you can earn gold from only 6 characters per roster
oh therees a tab
honing will usually fail, so just think of it as youre filling the artisan bar and the success is just you getting lucky
u get this thing were you chose which character to earn gold on
how much gold do you guys think i need for 20 more los cards 
0 if you just donāt care about it
arent those just rng
i hate cards because theres no pity system
It will be nice if there's a less stressful way to unlock new content even I have to spend the same amount of gold.
you can literally just get bad rng forever
is tooki soloable with bard auto speed for the una task
up until 1445 you dont need to spend gold on honing (well you probably will buy fusion mats)
Somewhere between 100k and 2m.
yes but
you can also just do horizontal content, its pretty relaxing
lets say you arent the unluckiest person in the world 
how do u get a lvl 2 set bonus?
what's horizontal content?
alt + L
hey that's not too bad
Depends on exchange rate as well
And whether you buy out Any card packs
I will caution you though, buying maris card packs is chasing the dragon
for an extra 7% dmg bonus on roster
i had Lostwind Cliff +15 awakening before delain armen ever dropped once for me. the only single delain i had was from a selection pack because it was getting too sad.
I used my first selection pack at level 20, on Zinnervale. Long story short, never use stuff without looking it up first 
lol
run clown
hey this character looks cool 
Literally how I picked it
do you mean you want to buy the card packs on mari shop in order to get it?
I was like, 'Surely Wukong will mean something later on'
oh ok
ok so aside from grinding out mats, what can I do to make money?
can't enter another legion raid.
yeah i do have 5 selection packs
aside from vykas but im burnt out.
life skills
this is the drop rate for legendary cards from those card packs btw
its time to do all my peyto and feytons
excavating and fishing can mean gold
click on the "link" to see the rng rates
yeah then divide the 4% with how many legendaries there are
wish it were weighted more towards cards that are not done
and then from that legendary card packs, u have a 5% chance to get the one that you want. included in that list is all the useless legendary cards also
like this guy
its maxed
People do crazy stuff for LOS 30 man
ive seen people do crazy stuff and have no los30
hasnt stoopz been buying all the mari shop card packs for a few months if not a whole year now and still doesnt have 30
IIRC, 12 characters 1-6 + argos is a 60% chance of getting a LOS card.
Thats a lot of dead, boring content though.
Oreha takes longer than Argos,
ive got about the same 
a few days ago i peeked a 1590 striker sitting on all lvl 10 gems, no cards and 59 roster
some weird things in punika
well its easy to dump $ into the game
It costs ~$2000 USD to get all level 10 gems for 1 character in real money
i stay in vern with the bots 
or RMT
if you have throw away money then go ahead but if you like having gold then just pray to rng gods to have pity on you. also those cards cost blue crystals which cost alot of gold
rmt canāt buy luck 
wait no thats my legendary
rip
you can also do all the content in the game (na/korea) without lvl10 gems. that just a gold sinc at that point for people that want to flex
level 10 juts epeen
na/eu is crazy compared to korea
5x3 and all correct level 5 tripods output more damage
everyone playing 24 alts
Level 7 is completely acceptable, except for scouter and SH

using the cash shop 
ayo
you guys know floor 39
or t1 tower
whats the deal there
this one if a screenshot helps
you do like no damage
and i get 1 shot by the puddle attack if it randomly hits me, with no indicator
there has to be some trick to it or something
let your friendly neighbourhood giant kill it
so its supposed to take 10 years for 100 red stones?
just dodge and kill anything that it spits out
man what a shitty floor
thats not even the most bullshit floor
there are more bs floor but this one is just annoying and gives no mats either
its a nice challenge on ilvl 
i havenāt seen t3 tower yet but thatāll be fun
the one in kr not the
thronespire we have
market
fastest way to get them
anywhere i can get t1 leapstones other than market? ive got all the tower ones
@maiden locusthttps://maxroll.gg/lost-ark/resources/road-to-rohendel
its fun doing those too
those are rng drop from mobs in specific locations. im sure there is a guide somewhere on the internet. i did a few for different regions but got borred farming the same mobs over and over for an rng drops
@maiden locusti have some but not many what server you on
https://www.inven.co.kr/board/lostark/4821/6218 saw this in a reddit post. ignore the korean

and i already already have 5 chars above 1370 so im not in a rush
look look at the picture
just asking if i missed an easy source
poggers
hell ya
from peyto
watch it be zinner
F
i hate him
all my homies hate wei
oh
also im stuck sec
ive only got
nvm
that many 
it was completed..
BUT i do have the first light thing
apparently its for the second awakening?
also is this good for being a month in https://gyazo.com/dfe4b9dc869541fbe139912e7d02a6bd
with 500 seeds and 11 souls
976 gs
976 gearscore?
mokoko enjoyer
i respect it
but 976 ilvl in a month is pretty low, but you have really good horizontal progress in a month
you can get to 1445 in probably a week if you tryhard
what matters is youre having fun
chaos dungeons are one of my faves
Are the Rehearsal and Deja Vu raids there to learn the mechanics of the raid boss?
yeah but some of them are missing
^
they also give you some rewards
this was my progress in about 2 months of doing horizontal and pushing chars
So if we can do the rehearsal the clown should be similar
ouch
the actual raid is much harder
Oh... noo...
yeah its rng :/]
t2 cube and boss rush arent worth it tho
Also can you use Crystalline aura mid raid?
How is the support damage contribution calculated in the MVP screen? For example if a support is shown to have done 25% attack support in a 4 man party. Does that mean the 3 DPS players only have 75% of the total damage done to the boss to contribute to?
Or is that number a separate measure and all DPS players still add up to 100% on their own?
its how much of the total damage dealt was because of support buffs
so if everyone did 100 damage in total
without the support they wouldve done 75
whats the best dps class in lost ark?
there isnt one
their is only good players not best dps class
some classes do more dps than others, but thats because they bring other useful things to the team
my example is blue gunlancer because he was my old main
doesnt do as much damage as other classes but he has a taunt, insane stagger and a party shield and cleanse
higher dps classes also tend to be harder to play or require a lot more investment to do the big damage
the highest dps isnt technically always the most wanted. sorcs for example are known only for their dps, but if everyone in the raid is already geared, they would pick someone else that actually bring good senergies over the dps since they dont need dps
So this implies, whatever damage % the DPS player gets, that is the number AFTER support buffs have been taken away. Aka this is a true "raid DPS" kind of calculation, and not a personal damage.
So when 2 equally geared DPS players perform the same exact rotation and get the same luck on the same class(let's assume this is true for simplicity), one gets support buffs the other doesn't. In the end they should both have the SAME damage% shown then?
no
the attack support number is seperate to damage dealt
if a support buffs your damage by 25%, that 25% extra damage is still yours
but the game keeps track that the support buffed that 25% of damage
so if you do 100 damage and 25% of that was because of a support buff, you still did 100 damage but the support keeps track that they increased damage by 25
and at the end the percentage is (all damage amplified / total party damage) x 100
the % showned is how much you hurt the boss. if someone helped you do more dmg, then you did more dmg and the % will show that you did more dmg
the attack support number is just how much damage the support helped with
and its also pretty uncommon for a support to buff only one person, because their abilities have mad range
That does not make sense unless I'm understanding something fundamentally wrong.
The numbers shown in game are PERCENTAGES. And basically every fight in the game is a single target boss. So a cruel fighter with 35% has done 35% of the boss's HP. And the rest of the raid members also contribute. But together the added number should NOT exceed 100%.
Is this correct?
support buffs are party wide, everyone is affected by it. not just one person
yeah the numbers all added together will not be more than 100%
if a support give a 15% buff, then everyone get a 15% buff
but damage dealt is not the same as attack support
so the dps could have the following damage contribution: 40%, 30%, 30%
and the support could still have 25% attack support
because theyre not the same, since the support didnt do the damage
thats just damage amplified
attack "support" and damage done arent the same
if a deadeye does 100 damage and 25% of it was because of a support buff, itd look like this:
deadeye damage dealt: 100
support attack support: 25
Ok I think I know what you mean now. The support attack % is a different metric from the DPS damage%.
This is a different system than, say FF14's Raid DPS calculation. In which buffs are subtracted/added according to the owner of the buffs, and the final RDPS is how much you "truly" contribute.
This system is more of a "personal damage" calcuation.
but only 100 damage was dealt, the 25 damage support is just there to say how much the support helped in terms of damage
the supprts cards just say how much the support helped. dps players cards are just how much dmg they did to the boss
yes

Sorry for asking so many question but where does one fine the Jukebox music exchange?
what does it mean when i hover over one of my characters and it says powerpass eligible ?
should be in the port just south of the traveling merchant
isnt it in front of the traveling merchant?
Right near the entrance by the merchant
its a merchant that sell music
Port south of traveling merchant? Is that in south vern?
The merchant at your stronghold
Oh I am stupid, thank you
yeah, at the workshop area
im confused, i was told t1 and t2 are like a day each but i did tower and still need 200 leapstones
just.....that
or you can use pet, which is aura feature
and its even worse for t2 becuse you get like 300 leaps from tower and you need 700 to get +15
thats a few weeks of guardian no? or you run islands
gold from abyss to buy them 
i asked someone here how long it'd take to get an alt through which means no story express or islands
its probably like a week?
i dont think its a few weeks tho
depends where your main is
if you have gold just buy leaps 
assuming islands are already done and youāre impatient after tower is done
these are my main 6, so if i focused on pushing my new alts itd probably be a few days
but im saving gold to gear my chars, my striker has no gear and zerk has the mats to get 1415 and would need gear then
push berserker to 1415 and its another legion raid gold earner 
so i guess the 3 alts i just made are gonna be t1/t2 for like 2 weeks
soulfist is done with yorn then?
soulfist is my story express char
so she should be 1340 in like 2 days depending on how much story i feel like doing
she could be t3 today but ive done too much story this week
done like 2 south verns and everything up to yorn
i would honestly focus on each 1415 going to 1445 if youāre sitting at 1460 for a while
im main swapping to my deadeye anyway so im gonna be 1460 for a long time

im really just focusing on gearing my alts though
they have no gems or engravings
except scouter he was hyper express
scouter is a waste on express
its a 2 gem andy
i thought it was like old express events where it just gave you materials
gives a free 4x3 at least for a few months
i also have an abandoned shadowhunter at 1360

but shes gonna be replaced by the soulfist soon anyway

yeah ur class is just boring
probably gonna replace zerk with my deathblade at some point
but the others are locked in 
yeah ive made a destro
hes being kted right now
i deleted my old 3 chars i hated so im just replacing them with chars i want to play
looking at you paladin and artillerist
and my second deadeye
heya. question.
value wise, is it cheaper to buy skin/costume for collection with blue crystal or royal crystal? assuming im not buying it to resell it down the line
Can I not do the mokoko challenge if I hit 1445. At 1445, the challenge button beside mini map dissappeared.
if its gone its gone

its meant to get you to a certain ilvl so, congrats?
there are quite a lot of good things for newbies in there
but if you rush you kinda lose them
what things you ask? no idea i never got that thingy
i did the welcome challenge and it was not the most exciting stuff tbh, dont remember a lot of the rewards
if you lost out then its fine
anyone knows if this is still obtainable? where is it from?
i stopped playing in july 2022, and recently came back. i wondered how many limited obtainable 1 time only items i missed...
@shy yarrow yea thankfully it is in the market, just checked
lots of them
May I know what is the total file size of Lost Ark currently? Iām planning to install it in a laptopās partition. Thanks
76Go for me
like80gb
76gb
can i only attempt to get the secret map once a day? or can i farm it every hour for a chance for drop?
once daily
rule of thumb is everything is timegated
what isnt timegated in this game? apart from infinite chaos omegalul
inferno
the thing you only want to do once lol
even swiping is time gated
theres a limit on how much you can spend a day
and swiping for gold you have to wait 3 days
for your gold
its like 1000$ a day
if someone wanted to give me more than 1k a day id accept it
Thank you!
is there something i should look for with the growth accessory chest
Are they sellable?
even im getting confused
its the one you get from story express right?
yeah
I'd just get w/ever you need, prio. Necklace
Stats for your class + engravings
Stats first, engravings second
id just go for stats first, then engravings if you have chests to spare
It isn't too important to have a proper build till 1415~, so don't bother too much if it ain't pretty
are there combat stats i should be looking for
is this secret map also one attempt a day?
Stat distribution and other things in the community guide
will my alts get gatekept from valtan with 4x3 relic
for demonic impulse you want spec perfect supression has more diversity in builds
depends on the class
my arcana doesnt but i had to get my scouter 5x3
the icons for what?
no, that would be stupid, there may be other factors, but 4x3 is not one
Most ppl only care about ILVL, roster and engravings
for the piece icons
130+, but there is ppl looking for 150+ ~
oh yea those are just the icons for one of the types of relic accessories it doesnt matter which type of relic acc though you use
It's hard to say, it's different for everybdoy really
you currently are still on legendary so your build isnt like really ready yet
its more that you can never avoid gatekeep
you can just gear appropriately for the content
so does it really matter how optimized to the guide they are
Gatekeeping mostly happens for classes, then engravings -> ILVL -> roster LVL
So the most relevant factor is your class, descending to engavings, ILVL, roster LVL
Most ppl gatekeep on class
not really until 1415
i pick whatever, even if they have no synergy
Don't tell me that ain't so š
if they are good enough on the rest i pick them
yea 100% my scouter gets gatekept more then my other chars
also title
my glavier with no gems gets in parties faster then my scouter with a 9 dmg
and i have PLC title roster level 150
why does it matter after 1415
I'd decline any class w/out gems ye
because you unlock relic accessories, which is when you can actually like make the build
thats kinda bs
whats with the scouter slander
idk. some people think scouter is low dps
AL Scouter is good, EL Scouter's ... a transformation class
aight ill come back when im 1415 then
scouter literally was in hell brel 1st clear
i invite any of those
an EL scouter
Transformation classes are frowned upon in general
yeah but i see nowhere near as much SH hate
sh is the same shit
a transformation class
they are "cheap", easy to use, comfy picks
lower damage ceiling compared to burst classes
Cockroach and Iron Man are seen as cheapos by most
doesnt mean they do no damage
Cheap alts w/out too much investment
they are just fine
They're the embodiment of mediocrity
i would believe you if you were talking shit about reaper or zerk
coz thats a meme by this point
but both transf. classes are good
zerk gets less gatekept then evo for sure
anyone with at&t fiber been having a really flaky connection / lots of DCs the past 2-3 days?
haha, no, thats just you being unlucky
For Zerkers it's Mayhem Zerkers being denied, BT's appreciated even though it's the worse spec
i take anything if its geared properly
can i burn all the old gear the game gave me before the last set
i mean tbf evo isnt trash and like i do actually pretty decent dmg on my evo its just my other properly geared dps is an arcana,igniter sorc,and surge db so it feels smodge af compared to them
Ye, I am moreso talking about the meme connected to Mayhem players always being floor pov
yes i know
also reapers
both of those classes are meme'd as floor pov
and zerks are the first one to die or fuck up mechs
thats the meme
yea my evo like never needs pots lmao
but i guess my dude is trying to get into overgeared parties on his scouter and getting denied left and right
or maybe hes not even properly built idk
traumatized by something
while leveling / doing story express? ye
tbf i havent actually had a problem in the past few weeks it was mainly only an issue a few months ago
when do most people raid because whenever i look its only overgeared people, im def just looking at the wrong time (euc)
when you get onto tier 3 territory, dont, you gotta hone transfer
so im still like traumatized from the first few months i had my scouter
and everyone thought it was f tier dmg
Wednesday to Sunday afternoon, prio Wednesday, Friday and Saturday
new classes = insta gatekept, by default, doesnt matter the class
i went through the same with my reaper
i was 5x3, lv7 gems, and blabla the rest is quite decent
still kicked over on ilv alts
so i cant actually dismantle the stuff they give me. how do i get rid of it?
Sell it
i even routinely cruel on my scouter in my daily guardians
as i said, EL scouter in world first hell clear. nobody can deny it does damage
Was it an EL Scouter?
also what groups do i join if ive cleared a raid once? reclear sounds like you gotta be experienced
yes
yes it was an EL scouter
arthetinean skill is the other spec
anyway it shows. people will gatekeep for anything, even something that is wrong, because people are stupid
ergo, you cant avoid it
better to just accept it and gear your chars appropriately
find friends/guild to play with
A lot of stuff's mainly connected to shitty synergies imo
SH and co. have very mediocre synergies, leading to ppl generally not picking them 'cause of that
and that's the issue
They should diversify synergies
people dont give a shit about synergies in pugs, 90% of the time
just get diversity
and people with hands
Why would I take a SH when I could get an arcana for crit
idk man, maybe because the sh has hands and can do mechs
who cares about crit synergy if they jail you
Especially when you don't know the person, you'd always build a team around you
honestly most SH ive played with have hands
i dont think ive ever been jailed by a SH thinking about it

If you want to pump DMG, ye
the auction house is empty for me. is it because i dont have any gold?
if anything you over dmg shit these days
someone is doing some different brel g6 to me
where i stand around avoiding doing damage for 90% of the fight
we got brel to 154 bars before the first meteor drop it was like an entire minute 30 of just running around doing nothing
I'm not saying that I'm picking solely on synergy
lol shandi?
have you even tried looking for something, items wont magically appear
yea shandi with an igniter sorc in each party and my party had an arti to
yeah shandis so fucked pre meteor
I am saying that I'd prefer taking ppl with good synergy that are also capable of doing everything the other ppl can do
ah. guess i just dont know what im looking for yet
feel like you are wrong to do so in pugs but thats just me
Exactly 'cause it's PUGs you should do that imo
and how do you know what people with good synergies have hands
ok
You're the only relevant factor, everything else is random
?!
dude
You don't know if the ones without good synergy have hands either
which spec of SH are you leaning towards?
k im out
It's always a coinflip
ill keep watching saint's prog
probably demonic
you can send screenies of whatever you're doing
so we can guide you, idk what youre even trying to acomplish
What exactly is the issue with what I've been saying
or just explain
I don't see it
i was trying to list items but i dont have any gold
yeah you cant
now im just figuring out the market
you have to pay a deposit
0 gold = no deposit gold = no listing anything
besides
not just any accesory will sell
legendary accs rarely sell these days
if its trash accesories, not even at 1gold someone will buy it
unless its like a class 3/grudge 3 or something like that and even then it sells for like a fraction of relic pricing
im really just trying to clear my gear inventory when it comes down to it
before 1415 you really dont want to buy any accs from the market anyways to cause oif pheons
i cant dismantle and most of the stuff is unsellable too
favorite those engravings
set up that they shine when you get a combination of 2
most accesories will be trash, you can freely dismantle those
as well as anything with not swift crit or spec
that will save you a LOT of time
is it not letting you dismantle things?
yeah the stuff from the story express
tyty
It should be sellable
can you sell it for silver maybe at a merchant?
^
1st, no idea what youre trying to sell or do
second, any mayor city
M, type general
is hm valtan mat box worth buying after gold nerf?
oh i can just look it up. thanks
its still not letting me sell the starter gear
from the express
do you need valtan mats, raw gold or do you wanna buy mats to hone
i have 6p relic, might need mats to push
as well as raw gold per tap
youcan buy the mats but have no gold to push
or you can just have the gold for whatever you need and get mats later, slowly, bound
the prob is i think a lot of us havent actually done the story express since it just was added so we dont know what the items say on it can you screenshot it?
are you trying to rush to clown or brel
pushing alts to clown/brel
how much gold do you have
70k, with some raids left
