there's a pet selection box on the player marketplace for gold that I want to buy for someone. If I buy it, can I gift it to them, or will it be bound to my account? It says "Unsellable, indestructable, cannot be dismantled" but then it also says "you can access your giftbox in your stronghold to send to a player on another world"... so does unsellable = bound to me? and what if the player is in my same world?

trying to figure out whats math on crit dmg vs crit value vs attack, is higher attack better than crit dmg or vice versa?
crit value is low then makes cdmg useless
vast oriole
im pretty sure all the maths are in community guide
rose jewel
naahhhh, really
vast oriole
or in pinned messages in the sorc channel
rose jewel
guides? what are those
faint pagoda
Guides are the players you ask 
orchid willow
well im the type to question all thigns ppl come up with so i dont blindly follow something i will if i starting charc
vast oriole
you can question them or just see graphics
or replicate graphics by your own to seek the truth
orchid willow
u gota wonder how they even came up with it in the first place they started out as beginners
faint pagoda
vast oriole
They tested for hours different things
vast oriole
That aswell
rose jewel
not like they have had the game running for more than 3 years
and that they have tested everything by several people for several months before writing conclusions
orchid willow
but its simple does crit dmg >attack or vice versa
vagrant veldt
Most of the people who did the math in the guides are active in their respective class channels btw
rose jewel
1000% of 1 is much less than 10% of 1000
subtle helm
1000% of 1 is much less than 10% of 1000
That’s… not… lol
1000% of 1 = 1000
10% of 1000 = 100
vagrant veldt
Nope
subtle helm
Oh wait
vagrant veldt
1000% of 1 is 10
subtle helm
It isn’t nvm im bad at math
orchid willow
max cdmg is 250 if using kbw but its useless if crit is low

Thats why you get crit synergy in your group
Or play with hallucination set
Its all explained in the guide

i never give my self what ifs , its always by my self i cant count on there being crit synergies cuz wont always be the case, if they die then useless

you can use any at any moment depending on if you have or not synergy, i think
limpid obsidian
What happens to AH listings on reset? I remember them being returned if no bids, but I'm not sure
rose jewel
exactly that
limpid obsidian
So they're cancelled if no bids, but keep going if there's bids?
rose jewel
if you bid and servers go out for maint and you're the highest bider, you win the item
edited
coz im pepega
limpid obsidian
Wait, so even if there are bids it just ends it and awards it to the highest bidder?
rose jewel
eh, no? it should go full time
subtle helm
Listings still expire when the time ends, unless the bid came with less than 1 minute of it expiring, then it gets extended by a few minutes
limpid obsidian
Ah, RIP. Thought I could snipe an acc ;(
rose jewel
i really really dont think items get returned if they have 20hrs and maint is 4hrs
i think
i never actually did it myself
subtle helm
They don’t
limpid obsidian
I thought listings with no bids got returned on reset cuz I remember being spammed with returns every reset
I guess that could just be coincidence
subtle helm
Probably. Maybe it was a time when maint was extended and you got bombarded with a day’s worth of listing returns
orchid willow
u know what i find weird is that the guide says for sorc to use magick amplification which boosts out going dmg by 81% and in torrent +20% vs (doing 160% crit dmg) so if crit really matterd then guide would have went with crit dmg, but to me it seems like attack > crit dmg based on what im seeing
limpid obsidian
https://i.imgur.com/XifnEct.png here’s the efficiency table if you want to work ...
@orchid willow here's a more readable variant(skipping areas that are all unviable and only showing where it could be):
limpid obsidian

Final Strike only works with crazy high Crit Rate.
Basically only Casting Reflux with Precise Dagger can run the Final Strike tripods.
Cuz it's important to note that +200% Crit Dmg is only +100% dmg, cuz base Crit Dmg is 200%.
blazing badger
u know what i find weird is that the guide says for sorc to use magick amplifica...
it's two things:
-
crit dmg +% is not the same as dmg +%; for example, Igniter will typically have either 250% or 300% base crit damage. Final Strike at level 5 is +240% which is either 96% or 80% damage increase respectively... at 100% crit rate.
-
Because crit damage only applies on crits, and crits aren't 100%, the actual damage increase from it is lower still
orchid willow
hmm i see, im thinking of combining crit+ attack/spec toghether for maximum output so i stop doing dmg in 1-100k's 70% crit (arcane max out) is usefull, the way im going i might be 70-72% at 1490 with bracelet, im doing 30m's on DD/explosion/punish strike with not having any lvl 10 dps gems/high gear so far and no los30
im testing this dmg in highest raid i can do and not low content, i find there is massive diff in what i hit bosses for becuzof their debuffs like valtan with low armor i did 50m
these 3 , intelligence will only go up as i lvl gear
my current
if spec is alone in its dmg then why ppl go for crit/spec necklace and bracelet lol makes no sense if critting gona be less dps for a spec related type
will be better to spec/swift if the math adds
pine agate
does the quest just end and you cant do it anymore?
orchid willow
igniter and reflux should be swapped imo if going by that knowledge lol
if they made it this way then crit rates are important for igniter

There's a new better one once you do the first one 9 times :P

blazing badger
if spec is alone in its dmg then why ppl go for crit/spec necklace and bracelet ...
critting isn't less dps as such, it's just that final strike tripod has a tough time competing with a massive 100%++ damage boost that amp does.
crit is important as igniter because you have a big damage multiplier during igniter but few sources of it natively (and no crit synergy)
that being said, you can go either spec/crit (most common), spec/swift, or swift/spec. they all have different advantages and disadvantages

vagrant veldt
More common? I think CR is probably a bit more popular if only because it's more leaning into the GL idea of a true tank and there are other melee classes with more DPS than LK
warm anvil
hmm, im getting mixed answers on this one
vagrant veldt
That's generally to be expected, at least in this community
The consensus is that classes are rarely signifigantly better or more popular than eachother
Except pistoleer lmao
warm anvil
yeah i just dont know the difference between the GLs, returning player after more than a year and i always thought id heard about bluelancer
vagrant veldt
To me basically, Blue (CR) is really the closest thing this game has to a tank, damage ceiling is lower than most classes but the floor is quite high mostly on account that you dont really need to dodge basic mechs
Red (LK) is more of a standard DPS class just trading a bit of damage for more durability
warm anvil
really i just care which is more meta
its an alt so i just want to take the path of least resistance/gatekeeping
theyre both even at the same level on that gatekeeping meme tier list
on a side note. how are bards? i enjoy playing my alt but i mostly took it because i thought supports would be easily accepted into raids. doesnt do well on its own in most content tho
radiant flame
Just take blue GL
And bards are good
Blue GL is just easier to play.
Bard, like any other support, is just OP for progression, because you have much more lenient gear (specifically engraving) requirements for endgame
Bard should do fine in solo content with the sole exception of red boss portal in chaos dungeon. For progressing through story just have a DPS setup. No endgame content is solo anyway (with the very specific exception of prokel in brelshaza raid which a support would never do)

is it just me or is anyone else having cpu high temperature issues?
given the game isn't even up, i'm not sure how this is related to lost ark
bleak knoll
It's not "i can cook eggs on my CPU" high temperature, but it's high enough that i can feel the heat through the pc case.
sick current
I mean I've been having this problem with the game for a few days now
radiant flame
i mean this is fundamentally a you issue
sick current
well thats why I asked if it is
radiant flame
just check your cooler
bleak knoll
As long as the game runs, a bit of extra heat is ok
radiant flame
thermal paste might need replacing
inside might just need a bit of a clean/dust down
many many causes
vagrant veldt
To be clear what RFP is saying is that this can't be an issue limited to LOA since the game doesn't have any control over CPU temps
sick current
yeah Im using a laptop so its natural that its higher temp but Im getting like 99C° sometimes lol
vagrant veldt
Same with any program
radiant flame
right well laptops will always have that problem
bleak knoll
I lean more towards the thermal paste solution. Cleaning almost never makes a real difference. (Well, unless your CPU fan looks like a vaccum cleaner bin) 
radiant flame
because laptops have basically no airflow
bleak knoll
Yeah, if it's a laptop, then it's normal.
radiant flame
its why most people dont game through a laptop
sick current
well 99C° is definitly not normal
radiant flame
eh?
sick current
higher demanding games run cooler

For modern chips under heavy load that's absolutely within spec

whats special about 100
theres no water in your cpu
bleak knoll
99 degrees Celsius?
sick current
thats the max temp
sick current
99 degrees Celsius?
yea
sick current
for the cpu
radiant flame
based on what
vagrant veldt
Used to be but the chip manufacturers are pushing the tolerances more over time
bleak knoll
99 or 100 seems a bit too much
sick current
based on the info on the chip?
vagrant veldt
And modern chips are better at effectively managing the boost clocks to maintain temps
sick current
I read it somewhere that over 90 it can cause long term damage
radiant flame
yes if its under that high a load
for that long
it's not great for long term
but are you leaving lost ark on 24/7?
fundamentally, laptop cooling is bad
bleak knoll
I mean, is there even thermal paste that's resistant enough to last at that heat?
sick current
well no but Im playing for hours daily
radiant flame
thermal paste is just a conductor
vagrant veldt
I mean, is there even thermal paste that's resistant enough to last at that heat...
yeah otherwise it would already start to decay at like 70 lol
bleak knoll
Yeah, but it is being used up
radiant flame
not really
bleak knoll
That's why it needs replacing from time to time
radiant flame
it will start to crack and affect its structural integrity and therefore it's conductivity
over time
regardless
lavish groveBOT
radiant flame
this is fundamentally a gaming on laptop issue
bleak knoll
I like to see it as "it becomes less moist"
Speaking of structural integrity, what can actually happen inside a pc or laptop if it runs on high heat for a long period of time? It's not like the metal will melt.
sick current
well it can fry
bleak knoll
If you mean cables, yeah. Good point.
Especially in case of a laptop where the space is tight af
vagrant veldt
Speaking of structural integrity, what can actually happen inside a pc or laptop...
The transistors inside the CPU are very small and connected by microscopic wires which can get locally very hot and will be damaged over time by extreme thermals and especially thermal cycling
bleak knoll
@sick current does it make any difference in heat if you turn the graphic settings all the way down? (As a means of testing)
sick current
well I cant try it now but I did turn it down a bit last time and it didnt really help
bleak knoll
@vagrant veldt ty for that info. Didn't know that microscopic wires were actually a thing.
sick current
that stuff is handled mostly by the gpu anyway
vagrant veldt
Wires is a bit of a simplification

but something might be wrong with it since my gpu is having issues as well

Before you do that, i'd advise to test this issue with other games as well
Or at least 1 other game
That's how you know if it's a Lost Ark issue or a laptop issue

but idk
bleak knoll
I don't know where you are from Blitz, but imagine that in the northern hemisphere, summer is just around the corner.
+1 when it comes to technical heat issues
radiant flame
Investing in laptop cooling is, imo, throwing money at a problem that can’t be fixed
sick current
you still want to reduce it as much as you can no?

It's kinda brutal, but i must agree

or what it should be most of the time at least
bleak knoll
I mean from 80 to 100, that's not that bad. Only 20 degrees 🙂

sure
bleak knoll
Those 20 can be accounted for because of the mediocre optimization of Lost Ark.
sick current
like in the summer when its 30C or 50C its whatever right? XD
bleak knoll
30 degrees outside, 200 degrees CPU temp
sick current
Those 20 can be accounted for because of the mediocre optimization of Lost Ark.
for a game as low demanding as that its horrific optimizationi if it jumps that high

Well, when it comes to optimization it's not only a Lost Ark thing, if you care to compare Windows to Mac OS, for example.

how long does maintenance last for zinnervale 
leaden harbor
how long is it supposed to take a new player with only a char at 1460 and one at 1445 to push my main to 1490? I've done valtan and vykas every week (hard modes on my main) and it seems like i wouldnt be able to do this in even 2 months
dusk dome

What's holding you back currently?
Gold or mats?
leaden harbor
gold mainly, but leapstones as well. I've been using my tradeskill mats to make the oreha fusion item and selling the excess
dusk dome
Okay there's a bunch of things you can do to help.
Using your stronghold is amazing as there's research to unlock honing rates.
This is around what you're looking at.
You wanna make sure you're doing your x3 Una Dailies each day for Leapstones.
If you run Argos on your main you can dismantle the bloods for more Leapstones.
There's an event vendor that has leapstones etc.
Ideally in lost ark, you have alts that funnel mats to your main
You wanna be doing Boss Rush as well for Leapstones - that's super value
Careful spamming Oreha Fusion items in stronghold - you wanna makesure the gold investment is work the sale value
leaden harbor
i think when i calculated it, the stronghold crafting comes out to 3g cheaper a pop than the market value
dusk dome
Cool as long as you're making a profit
lavish groveBOT
dusk dome
Ideally it takes time. Unless you have mats saved up, getting to 1490 from 1460 isn't gunna happen in a week.
leaden harbor
but wouldnt i be getting around 5k gold a week on a 1460 char doing hmode valtan and vykas? 91k seems like a lot and ive been pretty unlucky so im assuming its a bit more than that
if i have 2 chars thats 10k a week in gold
dusk dome
Valtan gives 3000, Vykas 4500
There's a 1375 Clown raid that gives 4500
Argos no gold at that ilvl but gives Leapstones for dismantling bloods
lavish groveBOT
dusk dome
you wanna try get to 1475 at least for Clown
leaden harbor
should i leave my second guy at 1445 or make him 1460 before pushing my main to 1475?
dusk dome
100%
Focus honing on one character at a time
or you're gunna be stuck for a while
I learned teh hard way last year lol
leaden harbor
oof haha ok ill do that thank you for the help
dusk dome
np!
If you have cash and don't mind running another character, you can power pass another one with a south vern pass and have anotehr gold generating character. DPS are getting into content ez atm so you won't have to invest that much for more gold generation
Have you used your Hyper Express pass on a character yet?
leaden harbor
i used hyper express on my second guy
leaden harbor
also is boss rush a daily thing or a weekly?
dusk dome
Boss Rush is a ticket you get dropped from your Chaos Dungeons (Cube tickets too)
Boss Rush gives Leapstones and Gems (you can sell gems on auction house for quick gold)
Cube gives silver and honing mats and engraving books

Do you guys know if there is a way find out which guilds are active on each server? I've looked at the "static" category here on discord, but the request are all over the place. There's no order to them.
buoyant herald
statics are more for raiding 
but any guild with a discord is gonna be more active than anything you join randomly in game
can ask the recruiter how active they are 
lavish groveBOT
bleak knoll
Considering that i've returned to the game after 1-2 years of pause, i feel like it's almost impossible to find an active guild that would be understanding enough on the server i'm in right now.
fallow trail
Do you guys know if there is a way find out which guilds are active on each serv...
One of the easier ways to do this is to join a guild or make one. And in the guild menu, the bottom left has a “Rank” blue diamond. Click that and you’ll see the top however many guilds of your server and they most likely have some form of recruitment message.
bleak knoll
Most players are looking for people that are on their level, gear-wise.
fallow trail
In my server just as an example, there’s a few recruitment messages which is just “anyone welcome” or something alone those lines.
bleak knoll
Yeah, but from what i've seen, such guilds are either dead or soon to be dead.
lavish groveBOT
bleak knoll
I mean soloing is fun and all, but at one point you hit the wall where you need to have a party to clear game content.
fallow trail
If the guild is high level, like 15+. It won’t die anytime soon. And the people on that rank list is only limited to guilds that actually do GvG or GvE content.
bleak knoll
Yeah but there is still the issue of gear- score
Active guilds usually don't recruit people that have a low gear-score
fallow trail
What’s your gear score?
bleak knoll
I came back to the game 4 days ago so... do i really need to say?
I had a 1400+ Destro and 3 more chars, but i've deleted all of them and moved to another server
Fresh start and all that
gleaming token
what's the point of deleting them
bleak knoll
Didn't like them anymore
fallow trail
Ok then. You’ll probably have to try to find a guild once you hit 1415+.
forest flame
is zerk teqnich better than mayhem in long term or not ?
gleaming token
but you went to a new server anyways lol
and you might not like your char that moment, but your mind can change. just like it did between the time of playing it and deleting them
bleak knoll

Well, yeah, but at the beginning it was all about the hype of a new class (Destro), but after doing some soul searching, i've realized that the most satisfaction i can have is from helping others (like IRL), so that's why i went with Artist this time. I'm pretty sure i'll stick to it. Otherwise i'll have to quit the game entirely (again )

should i go lostwind cliff or deep dive set? i have one selector and wondering where i should use it

compact fern
lost are OK yeah cuz its light of salvation
cloud solar
otherwise i would go with kharmine is the one missing from lostwind and 100 gates is too much
compact fern
i think general sentiment is its FINE to use them to get to LoS 18, optimal to save for the last ones you need to hit 30
just because say you use yours on balthor rn and that gave you LOS 18 right
down the line, you might be just one card from 30 and get like 10 balthors
cloud solar
im just asking cuz started playing 2 weeks ago, dont use if i should hold the selector
i see ur point
compact fern
honestly lock it away in a hidden storage you never look at and forget about LOL

But more alts = spending more gold on the alts. When I quit, no one let you into legion raids on ilvl anymore... I can't imagine that's improved. That'll quickly kill any gold earning from alts when you math out how much you're actually spending on them

Whats the best dungeon to get recourses for honing
The answer to this is chaos dungeon but you can only do it twice a day
rose jewel
welp
radiant flame
or are islands better
Some islands give one time honing material rewards which can accelerate progression
It sounds to me like you are low ilvl, possibly tier 1
junior timber
idk
rose jewel
i kind of used everything to my knowledge for a potential 10010 fix
junior timber
i think tier 2
rose jewel
but since a lot of people is experiencing it
radiant flame
Which would prompt me to suggest that you should probably just restart a character and use story express
rose jewel
its probably has something to do with a specific isp or area
maiden locust
i kind of used everything to my knowledge for a potential 10010 fix

junior timber
oh
radiant flame
Until you are 1340
rose jewel
yeah im from NA
junior timber
kewl
rose jewel
so no idea
junior timber
so make new character?
radiant flame
So you don’t need to worry about honing at all
If you are new that’s what I suggest
That’s what I would do
It’s up to you
rose jewel
oh well
radiant flame
The alternative is to do chaos dungeon , do islands, and wait
rose jewel
im having it first time aswell
the 2 dudes from above having 10010 are indeed from euc

so yeah its probably a big zone / isp being affected

its a big boost to your damage (or utility/cooldown) on one skill
