what does the new Brelshaza hard gear give
when guides refer to the "early game" do they mean early game as in, during story or the beginning of the endgame
more item power ?
ancient stuff
which is xd ?
you gonna pump weapon to 25?
maybe zeals guide can tell you as well
coz no idea what you're prioritizing

does this mean, u hv to complete 250,000 legion raid run in 1 week only?
is this even possible? doesn't 250k sounds like impossiple?
like asking u to hv more than 10000 character or something?
EVERYONE
so everyone gets rewarded i see
are the mat drop ammount the same for guardian raids for each tier or higher ilvl raids drop more?
more accessory drops ig
if only mats stay the same across the raids, soloing them take so long on my alts
punika pass?
a new pass?
then would i get acess to the pass as soon as patch drops or i have to run through story again for it
i see
just like all the other punika passes have been
road map says some kind of boost event
guess tomorrow we'll probably know which
otherwise no idea if its pp or hyper
so i should hold my pass then
How do i go about farming gold
until we get a confirmation
like i just got to 1450 i pitied 2 things now im so fucking poor its crazy
welcome to endgame
im counting life skill
but ended up using most of basic fuses this week to push 1460
Well okay so is there anywheres is hould look to find out the best process of making gold farming wise
other than that I guess im getting into raids but barly qualifying
because im on a dead AF server and by dead i mean im more or less soloing world bosses sometimes
"with a powerpass and progression events"
ah bet
wait are there servers that are more populated than others?
yes
by fucking miles
your content you matchmake for is regional
but anything like world bosses island bosses for runes chaos gates all of that is omega hard on a server like mine
how do i see what servers are populated
when is it good to swap from salvation > nightmare on gs?
either im blind, i dont remember or they ninja added that
what region are you on
because theres a few "known" popular servers
and anything but those are more or less deade
uh, na east i think?
go to your region chat channel and ask
east, and its una
naw isnt dead
well not as dead as EUW but im sure its lower than NAE?
lower than nae is not dead
hi just wanted to ask when using the punika pass am i supposed to get a second one after using the first one because i dontt see it in my mail
no
actually prices on NAE is much higher than NAW
only north vern pass gives 2 from story
yep
knowledge transfer seems useless and paying for a pass is extortion
its only 2-3 weeks away youâre not missing much
should i use them or save them till i hit lvl 50?
how much gold would one be expected to need to go from 1445->1500?
for legendary packs, keep the "selection" ones indefinitely, you will need them later, randoms always open, others just stack them, if you opened all, you wont have space
you can open them later when you are in t3, and have more understanding of what you need
got it, thanks
100+ on average, closer to 150+
with bad luck, you will be closer to 200
100 K right?
yeah lol
huh
each hone in 1500+ costs like 1k lol
craft and sell oreha
youâll reach 100k in no time
also what's your highest ilvl ?
im doing just that, but even the fuse mat economy is in danger
wont be soon
so dont sell yet, can you wait until may 10
Shadowhunter, demonic impulse requires 2 gems, decent damage ish
Scouter too but kinda low on damage side 
Argon island reset is not daily reset
it doesnt reset on daily reset
I canât remember which one but itâs one of those
google the argon reset time
Do you even have the skillet?
oof
punch is too much damage
You are wasting your time
you need the pan
If you donât have skillet donât do Argon
lucky
^
They donât
Itâs a specific reset time
Iâm telling you. That is not how argon works
they do respawn
maybe its just some set amount of time
like for 1h they respawn or something
but they do
They will respawn after a few minutes unless some one made a perfect sculpture then you have to wait till daily reset
Disagree in part, if you can login at reset time (it's when hardcore players do that anyway so there's no other chance) then you can destroy the sculptures until you get the special drop from them
You get a "tool" that is like skillet, maybe even better
I've done it before getting the toy
These sculptures tend to regrow after destroying, at least some of them
But this island is stupid anyway and should be solo mode
Morning everybody!
Noob question: Does gear transfer change the quality of the item I'm transferring onto?
Say: Item A is being transferred onto Item B. Item A has a quality of 80 and Item B has a quality of 50. After the gear transfer, would the Item B piece be 80 now? or would it still be 50?
Also, if it's the case that it would be 50, does dismantling the relic item B give me all my crafting reagents back, and would it be worth it to try and recraft it at a higher quality?
If dismantling doesn't give me all the reagents back, I guess my only option would be to try and increase the quality of the gear after I've transferred Item A onto Item B?
Sorry for the wall of text, still kind of new to the game
These items I guess I should mention are relic rank
@maiden locust when you transfer your gear you get the quality of whatever you transfer to, sadly doesnt go up if the other piece has higher quality
Also i do not think dismantling will refund it
So the only way to up the quality is the gear upgrader? :\
???
gear transfer uses the higher quality
the only time this does not apply is when you are transferring from argos legendary to lower relic
When ive done it its just the one i transfered into, unless im thinking of the wrong thing in which case im sorry for giving incorrect info
lower relic to upper relic and upper relic to lower ancient and lower ancient to eventually upper ancient all keep the higher quality
the quality system changes from argos legendary to lower relic, which is why it doesnt transfer
after that, your quality will never go down
I'm gear transferring a relic with like 50 quality onto a legendary piece with like 90 quality
It's Yearning (50ish) onto Chosen (90ish)
Once you get to the point where quality upgrade is available then it starts transferring quality
....why would you do that?
Thats a step back
like i said earlier
the quality system is completely different between the two
notice how for argos legendary, quality only gives a marginal increase in life/additional %dmg
Well the chosen is legendary quality and the yearning is relic quality, is relic a step down from legendary?
but for relic, it starts giving vigor/a much higher additional %dmg range
legendary quality is irrelevant on left side
just ignore it
Relic is above legendary
quality only starts to matter for relic and higher
Now I'm confused. I have a Chosen legendary helmet. I just bought a Relic quality Yearning piece. You're saying I shouldn't transfer the honing I've done on the chosen piece onto the relic piece I just bought?
but yes the only way to improve quality on relic is to either recraft the piece and pray for a better quality (dont do this) or use chaos stones at the npc to upgrade it
I think you may have used the wrong preposition here
yes, you transfer the chosen gear to the relic
it keeps the honing level on it (but any artisans energy is lost)
but the quality does not transfer because the quality system is different in legendary vs relic
you get the quality of the relic piece and you upgrade it by what I said earlier
you misworded your initial question and made it sound like you were transferring downwards
You are transferring from the Legendary (which is currently +15 or something) to the Relic (which you just bought with Valtan/Vykas drops), correct?
yes
Alright that sounds good
then you get the quality of the relic piece you just got
^
In that case the quality does not carry over, however in future transfers the quality does carry over
welcome to the cancer that is quality upgrading
Also quality upgrade is the fastest gold sink you've ever seen lmao
the quality that you get on your relic pieces is the quality you start with and any quality upgrades are permanent until they decide some new system replaces it years later
I just thought the relic piece goes on the legendary piece to make it better, it's just odd to me that it's the other way around I guess, like the arrow points from right to left, I guess that's where my wording got mixed up.
& Yeah, my chosen piece was 94 and with the relic piece its dropping to 58.
Should I even worry about quality until I get my full yearning set?
the purpose of transferring is to move your honing levels to relic pieces that 1. have a set effect and are the backbone of all builds and 2. can be honed to levels higher than legendary (and as well the in case of upper relic and beyond)
Ou okay, that's good to know as well
legendary is capped at ilvl 1490 and cant be honed beyond 20
lower relic (from valtan/vykas) is capped at ilvl 1575 and can be honed to 25 (dont do this)
58 is a kind of insane quality drop for relic gear tbh
all of my relic pieces were below 20 đŠ
I certainly didn't have any over 40
you get to 1490 (+20 average across all pieces), do brelshaza normal for materials to craft upper relic gear, which you gear transfer to, and that brings down your honing level (but preserves the item level)
upper relic gear has a cap of 1590 and can be honed to +20 max
Another noob question, the ilvl of the piece has nothing to do with cost of upgrading the quality, does it? Like there's no reason to try and increase the quality before transferring, because the gold cost to upgrade is static?
you hone to around 1540, start doing brelshaza hard mode, then you get mats to make lower ancient gear, which you gear transfer to (and preserves the honing level you have from upper relic), max item level is 1615 and goes up to 25, the highest currently achievable in our version
quality and honing level are independent of one another
Gear transfer cost is only affected by tier/rarity and ilvl I think
And ilvl as well?
you will always be honing
ilvl is basically honing level
eventually you stop with quality
Oh wait I misread question
Makes sense yeah
because upgrade chances are sub 0.8%
at 300/800 gold per click along with 1 or 3 chaos stones depending on armor or weapon
Uh don't worry about it the quality and ilvl/honing systems are pretty much entirely independent
Okay cool, I think it got that all down.
Thanks for all your help guys I really appreciate it
a good place to start is to get all your armor to around 50+ and your weapon to at least 70 if you are a dps class
obviously this is rng dependent
I'm just a little ole artist
your weapon quality is essentially irrelevant then other than to show off
Flex the đł baby
your armor quality matters a lot more though
but fortunately thats much cheaper to do than weapon
I just started playing the game earlier this week. I made the mistake of thinking I could just powerpass and start at the end game, and I'm still trying to figure out what the hell I'm suppose to be doing lol
All this boat stuff is really confusing, and of course powerpassing gave me all these chests with the coins and I don't know which coins are for what and what these relic tier rapport chests are for and it's been a mess
I managed to figure out chaos dungeons, guardian and legion raids
that's about it
boats are not important
sailing coins are best used on either gienah's coins if you are chasing collectibles or sun coins to trade into pirate coins to buy weekly materials off the merchant in the harbor of every major city
LoA devs forgot about boats midway through designing T2 content lmao
because t1-t2 are dogshit deprecated content/systems
and it's not like FF14 where 2.0 is still somewhat relevant because of lore reasons
Is there a way I can just buy a nice boat that isn't going to kill me while trying to sail from continent to continent?
There's some horizontal content on them but it can mostly be dealt with later
Just upgrade Estoque
level estoque to like 5-7
buy some decent sailors
grab the autosail thing from the cash shop (hermida's breath, forgot if it requires $ or buyable with blue crystals)
you're set for the rest of the game
Or be like me and mess up rapport bomb with Blackfang and be 30 charisma short of Astray đŠ
yeah that thing
I wish I knew what that meant lol
it autouses speed boost when auto sailing
Okie doke I can manage that
also, bifrosts largely replace ships for a lot of long distance traveling, mainly for stuff like dailies
The best boat in the game is gated behind like 2 months of dailies and I made it all the way through that and made an arithmetic mistake and can't get it now
That sounds like a massive design flaw. You can brick your own progress towards the best ship?
You can brick your progress by trying to brick the virtue system
it's whatever
He tried skipping a virtue requirement and failed it
boats are completely irrelevant in the grand scheme of the game
Not saying virtue stats are a good design
they only matter if you care about completionism
Technically the arithmetic mistake was in trying to cheat another loosely related system so it's my fault regardless
you have these things called bifrosts
they let you save a spot and you can teleport to it, on a 2 hour cooldown for each bifrost slot
everyone automatically gets 1, if you have crystalline aura you get 2 more, roster level 60 gives you another one
Yeah bifrost really makes most boat content pointless anyways
and the last one you get from getting 9 ignea tokens (100% completion adventure tome on 9 areas)
you are meant to use these for your dailies
Well no one can blame you from trying to save time and resources, if it's possible to do that then fundamentally it's a design flaw in their system.
& @lone sigil I'll try and get my roster to 60, I think it's 25 at the moment. I use the aura so I guess I'll use the two extra they provide
for people doing leapstones dailies, you'll usually take up 2 bifrosts since the common dailies to do are one in shushire and 2 in feiton
for people doing silver dailies, it'll take up 4 bifrosts (1 to get the quests and 3 to turn them in at separate locations)
You don't really have to try for roster level tbh, if you run more than 1 character you'll get there whether you want to or not
bifrosts are character independent, so each character can set different ones
At what point should I start trying to figure out the rapport system? Are there specific people I should be focused on first and foremost, or who are essential to get leveled up?
all you have to know for now is max out your daily rapport actions
Lopang is the best place to get silver?
other than chaos dungeons and cube, yes
Definitely best return on your time
look up your adventure tome and use up your rapport action on npcs that are in the rapport section of that area
Any zone? Just start from the beginning I guess?
eventually you want at least 8-9 igneas, 8th gives a +6 skill point potion and 9th gives the last bifrost slot
ouuu wait, you can get more skill points past level 50?
yes
if you open up codex
and look up permanent character upgrades or whatever you call it
it gives you a list of obtainable skill point potions outside of leveling to 60
you will want all of them in order to get the most out of your character
well that sounds like that's vitally important to even start end game
Like that should be my focus right now lol
rethramis, west luterria, yudia, tortoyk, anikka, shushire are all fairly easy to do for 100% completion
arthetine is fairly easy but 1 or 2 npcs have very high rapport requirements
rohendel isnt too bad either
Igneas are like longer term progress, there's a few skill potions that are much more accessible like 20 island souls and a few giants hearts
feiton can round out the 9th but it requires a fair bit of silver, punika can also do it but it has multiple npcs with very high rapport requirements and a fair bit of mob grinding
but yeah, igneas are a long haul thing
Well after I upgrade that ship, I think I know what I'm doing today
Omnium Stars 
which is why you should always use up your daily rapport actions
Does practice mode prokel use up your pots?
no
Does that mean for allll rapport npcs, I can only do a limited number of actions for the day across all of that?
I do yeah, so I guess I gotta go find those peeps. Okay, welp, thank you for your help, I really appreciate it. â€ïž
it's a dogshit system and i'm sure the vast majority of players wish it didnt exist
Me
but alas korean developers keep it in because lol time gate hahahaha
(see aforementioned blqckfang astray complaints)
Just found out that at the end of the year Steam will be unavailable for Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 users anymore. Is there a stand-alone version of the game i don't know about yet?
I know there is the RU stand-alone client, but that requires a VPN
The game will lose a lot of players if Amazon doesn't do something about this
Half the player base or more will vanish, like it happened in the past after a patch where Windows 7 users couldn't log in anymore.
Anyone know how long it takes to finish 32 sea bounties?
(And yes, i know this isn't an official Amazon discord, but i'm just saying)
updating to windows 10 is free
Not if you're a pirate đŠ
If you're a pirate you should be arrested but the rest of the playerbase will update perfectly fine
In that case its your issue
Well... we'll see
Also, regarding the 32 sea bounties, you can't name a specific time since some of them depend on RNG
Ok so i might sound stupid for this but whats the point of making multiple characters
to explore playing other classes, to do more raids, and most importantly to generate more gold/silver/materials income
up to 6 characters can earn gold from raids
every character has its own dailies/weeklies unas, chaos dungeons, and guardian raids
leveling new character. once I get ship and "Finding the Arks" mission. I just follow world quests instead right ?to get to 50 and get to north vern ?
yes
you are practically required to play multiple characters if you want a good flow of gold/silver/materials
the alternative is spending lots of money
Hmmm
Havenât been raiding in a while cause i just came back, didnât think of that
Does this mean I can finish Daily Reputation faster?
Pretty sure windows 10/11 is downloadable and usable officially for free. You'll just have to put up with a watermark on the bottom right of the screen.
I need cards that only drop in abyssal dungeons apparently, but abyssal dungeons are all low ilvl, will it drop cards anyway?

yes
you still get rewards only you cant buy chest at end
?
Does anyone know where does courage card Pack drop?
Guys, 5x grudge or 3x grudge, which one is cheapier?
is there a difference between excavating in secret forest in punika or in azure wind island?
I'll just naturally go with the flow: quit Lost Ark and look for another game.
With so many ppl around, the game is doing fine
what the heck is g4 stagger mind control
G4 Yellow Cube Stagger
thereâs no mc in that raid????
oh there is
itâs because the blockers arenât blocking
Yes I know
But can you cleanse it with Sleep Bomb in case it happens
that is my question
yes any form of cc would work
Alrighty
can anybody help me with this server authentication error ive tried pretty much all the basic fixes but nothing owrks
whats the error code??
p sure this is just a stronghold island
Anyone knows the music name of Kakul g1 x50 bars roulette mech?
idk if that one specifically is in game if ur talkin as far as like. stronghold music
No i just want to find the track for it, whether on youtube or anywhere :P listened to all kakul ost and none of them have that section
Hi i am currently not getting further at some NPC like Omnium Star rapport and Giant Heart Rapport because of the stats requiremnt whats best way to get those? and what are the daily Rapport route i need to do? is it only the emote + songs playing right?
doing adventure tomes
is probs best
gain a lot of stats via those
oh ok strange
And if i run out of Gifts, only thing i can do daily is song + emote right?
yeah isk
yea!
and their quests but
theres a lot of early npcs
who give stat potions
but honestly tomes & also yellow quests
are best way
ok thanks
does you gear have to be a certain level to be able to search it automatically on auction house by ctrl clicking?
gear meaning which
accessories?
oh also as a followup to the questions i was asking earlier - for dps alts is 4x3 ok for vykas hard or am i doomed
i mean
trying to decide where to park alts since i am having an easier time honing them thani expected
and i was thinking that i probably keep them at 1460 for a long time
but if i cant do vykas hard on them then its sad
yeah i mean itâs definitely not worth investing in them for 5x3
if theyre just base alts
but honestly
learn the sidereals & host your own vykas lobbies
as reclear
ok
i guess? does certain gear have the ability and others not?
will be super easy
what level are you??
ill get them to 1490 once i get my gems and legendary books sorted i think
that seems like ideal long long term parking spot
50
item level
460
ahh yeah so
T3 stuff is the stuff sold on market mainly
T1-T2 stuff isnt really sold
T3 starts at 1100+ is when you get there
so once i get tier 3 stuff it will give me the search option when i ctrl click
oh also
ty
what guardian is the first one that people start really doing
i have some old chars at like 1340 ish
but i dont think ppl do igrexion lol
oh ok i wont give up trying to find parties
yea i mean
as daily runs
not as first time rewards
Deska is the main popular alt one

1415 i believe?
ok
this guys talking about how hes gonna sell his tripod accesorys if he was a new player because he would most likely fail the conversion. what is he talking about ability stones?
for bringing old 1340 up do i just
get it to 1370
and get free argos/oreha runs
until i have gamer accessories
and then push past 1370
since pheons on legendary accs seems like bait and id rather just buy relics at 1415
WHY
check the pins
ik, thought they fucking fixed and now its back 
i have 3 higher and the other 3 are 1460
alts at 1460 is prefect tbh
but i plan on pushing mine to like 1490 and keeping them there for ever

is slayer 10th may confirmed?
personally idc about it just need the pass
Guys, anyone help me please?
whats up
Which engraving book should i use for my igniter sorceress and RE deathblade
I am making a new build.
hmmm well you use class for one, you can go re 1, with a class 5 ring
um let me look at the builds for both
i will use igniter, grudge, hit master all out atack for sorceress
are you night mare ? for sorc
remaining energy, grudge, ambush master, super charge for deathblade
no relic set for them
i can't make legendary cursed doll
do you plan on going remaining energy 3 or 1
you go 1 eventually
it's the best build if not 5x3+2
you do something like grudge ambush for books
hmm in that case cursed doll is the only engrav book you can use on both
probably you are looking to community guide
but
RE3 may be better but if you are tight on gold for books
better to just do something like 4x3+1 or 4x3+2
then again that gets you gatekept
honestly it's like less than 40k for RE books
how can i do 4x3 +1 or +2
ok ty
stick with that until ancient 5x3+1
im basically brand new so it is nice to know that longterm parking is not so far off
ill push the fun ones later though hehe
if you plan on going remaining 3 and igniter, id suggest adrenaline books. but if you are going 4x3+2+1 remaining energy id suggest CD
well they r all fun but u know
4x3+2 is fairly cheap since re5 accessories are cheap
you run RE2
with grudge/ambush/adrenaline/super charge
you get 9/9 books and a 6/6 rock or higher
and use a mix of 4/3 accs and 3/3 accs
so purple books and a 6/6 stone
for 4x3+1 or +2 you gotta use relic i think
i know about stone and engraving books
learning party
should make a learning party
valtans not hard but id wait till u can do hard
its going to be hard finding normal people especially for learning
should be able to
worst case you study a g1 video and rat your way in
@unkempt geyser how will i do this
aslong as u understand orb mech should be fine
i can't imagine
wdym
how can i do 4x3 and 1x2
Lost Ark engraving calculator for better equipment planning!
random
that one works
4 3 for ring
i dont think you need 5 3 for earrings
you can 4x3+1
you dont have to do +2
since im sure when you get legendary books youll have to re get stuff
just sack up and buy legendary books
permanent investment
they're like no more than 50k gold for a set
books also mean you can run a worse rock
cutting for a 7/7 or better rock will easily run you more than what a set of books costs
my budget is not enough for legendary books, thank you anyway
hit master, grudge or all out attack
the budget exists if you save a few weeks of gold
books are one of the best investments you can make
also consider you will be wearing relic accessories for a very long time
earlier you get books, the earlier you can plan and settle around accessories
man, ty anyway but my sorceress has no accesory now
i have to make a build them
it can be cheap no problem
its fine to run legendaries for a bit
spending gold on shit relics you replace when you get legendary books is worse
i will use google translate
i still use a legendary in a 5x3 they always have a place 
el cheapo though even with x2 leg books
So I'm asking: when I make 9 engraving books I will need to buy 3 3 accessories to complete it. Which would be a cheaper choice?
in the long run , using legendary books is cheaper. you can use those roster wide
so you are saying make 12 legendary book and use cheap legendary accesory?
Class leg ring gang gang

i couldnt find a 3/3 relic and had to use legendary
preferably youâll want relic accessories
i think i use only one leg piece
on my surge db
if you keep a legendary piece make sure its a ring
Honestly this tho like if you stop honing for a solid three weeks it's amazing how much gold you can get
Life skills fucking BANK
i skipped life skills this week 
and sold skins off my zerk cause hes becoming lopang alt for when my slayer is out
Tfw you also sometimes instead of class ring go necklace because it dropped

I could see that tbh
It sucks because the market is entirely decided by community
And their class distros
im still waiting on a 3/3 or 3/4 surge ring in relic
Fucking soulfist accessories shake my goddamn head

anyone can tell me when finish this? in spanish don't appear 
thanks 

Hi guys, I just noticed that the Hyper Express pass event thing, is only to bring a char that is already 1370 up to 14xx. I was under the impression there was a catch up system for new characters?
What's my best option if I want to create a new character to get it as high up as possible?
Story express into hyper express or punika pass into hyper express
The later saves you more time but you have to have something that finished punika already (and not claim the pass from this time around already)
Ah ok so Im missing something, im a returning player and was only at 1040 on my sorc, but wanted to start a new char and someone told me about Punika, so I pushed through to Punika story on the sorc. Is that Power pass still available? If yes then I think im missing something still
You're probably missing the Berver's friend questline and to my knowledge it's still available
Awesome will go check it out then, thanks mate
The 3rd party website lost ark codex can help you here
Ye hope you enjoy your new t3 character
anyone have a link to the spreadsheet that shows wut will drop from each legion raid gate nd chest?
tryna figure out how many more weeks i need to get my full relic set
purple quest next to nia is the start point for bervers friend
double mats its 2-3 weeks from scratch
guys can someone gimme a round rundown on what bard and artist do? i want a support char and tried paladin but dont really like it
ooh i see, i have 36 valtan bones nd 5 vykas wings
so 2 weeks
đ oo so i clear today nd after reset nd im bing chilling? 
oh nah im 1445 so prolly a bit b4 i get 1460
which set are you crafting?
Hey I'm pretty new to the game (lvl 35) but I just want to ask something; I see alot of sorceress around and I'd like to ask if it's somewhat a meta class rn (since I'm kind of aware that classes are somewhat balanced as mentioned before)
Oh yeah they're bots. they seem to follow a pathing
i was gonna make 4dom/2 nightmare flower but since i just came back imma look into it alot more to make sure its the right one etc but also might wanna go full hallucination build later, that should be easy to swap right? like later later when im doing brel nd such
Also the papunika link (beginner intro) isn't working anymore.
also how do i get stone of chaos? bc i did a few raids nd i get none, is it super rare drop?
youâll unlock set conversion after another week or two so nothing to worry for
oh okay awesome
first clear chest and hm
oh okay i see
How or where can i use this? Also in what should i use? Ty ty
amethyst exchange
i wanna ask the rapport for sasha or niven which is faster to get the giant heart?
use them on whatever you want in that shop really but best to save
sasha
ty
Where is that?
in any main city search amethyst in map
Cant find it lol
where are you
marked it for you
Ty ty ty
for future just use the lil search in top right
and can type Amethyst or smth
will show you it :)
What should i buy?
Thanks thats usuful
Got it up
Save up
Tho they were going to expire
they will bring out skins for these, but you can buy if you need the aura or the pheons
Peers its possible to achiev 5x3+1 in ancients with a 4/3 neck?
yes
it is a massive dps loss
you are griefing yourself and your party
and yes you will be gatekept by anyone with a brain
yes, u need 3 6/3's rather than 2 only with 7/7 / 9/5 rock
u can play 7m hallu pred slayer, but its harder to play than 6m entropy
thanks
What's considered a decent roster level?
120+ considering new players imo, but dont fuss
cant really push roster that fast anyways
And itâs a sizable dps loss if you play hallu slayer.
Gotcha thank you! I'm rethinking my accounts approach. I've noticed I'm falling back into the bad habit of trying to do dailies on 6 characters and that's just not smart. Think I'll try to focus on 2 or 3 and send the rest to lopang
idk your case but after 1490 only 1 main is the best for me, i dont have time to do dailies with more than 1 anyway. but since the mats to hone to 1490 is just absurd i had 4 for a while.
Tbh, a main and a couple alts is perfectly fine. Anything less than that may be hard.
But thatâs like an hour of gameplay per day.
oh is it?
thought it was just longer burst window so harder to get off dmg even tho non entropy
ofc it is
entropy itself is op
- backattack bonus
- ambush is a lot of damage
just having 100% backattack uptime is ass
Iâd prolly gatekept a hallu slayer 
given how broken exe is currently
not my fault
guys i get 8 6 with 3 reduction
yeah, you will probably be gatekept for playing the other spec
It is what it is
is it enough for 4x3 right?
more than enough
exe slayer is the most broken class in the game by far
if you arent playing it, there's no compelling reason for groups to take you
well entropy
pred is completely viable
it is viable
thing is
why would i take predator over another class?
as a party leader the op spec interests me more
sure sure
I shall make a build for both 
but yeah same logic applies to entropy
since it's part of what makes the build so broken
doesnt matter which spec as long as your skills have back attack bonus entropy is gonna be king by a huge margin
just ambush master over like raid captain is +7% damage
and then all of entropy damage
I started early when the game just came out and fell Into the trap of making a new character for almost every hyper pass haha I got burnt out around kuku doing 6 characters every day. Got my bard to 1490 and dipped. Came back now people want 1490 for Vykas weekly 
is there a difference between excavating in secret forest in punika or in azure wind island or arthetine?
Not all areas are tier 3 areas.
so needs to be tier 3 area
yes
t2 mats are useless
the gray ones gonna be the same but the blues are t2
which are poop
rowen has a really good rotation
oh rowen?
but its pvp enabled đ
Just donât get one tapped by a 1595 
doubt there are many ppl there
Yeah, like no one goes to rowen outside of the field boss and maybe to bang out a weekly or two real quick.
can sidereal energy drop for my alts that havent finished brel g6?
no, it can only drop from g6 clear in brelshaza
i thought from clown too?
yes from clown also
if you mean whether you need the certificate that gives you the esther quest to get the drop
no you dont
thanks for clarifying!
thats exactly what i meant lol. ran clown on my 1480 alt and was curious to know if it was a possibility to drop
Are quests with " ! " mark important?
orange
Yes
are story, purple are extrar
But I think are optional or not?
purple are optional, orange id do
is slayer
Oh, yes they are
Sorry
5/10
No
o
I can't proceed the game, because I have no upgradable gear and it's Impossible to hone them. What now? I'm stuck at item lvl 302 đ
Are you on story express
What's that?
The big story express event menu that pops up when you load into the game
Sorry, quests like that are secondary right?
Yes, side quest. You donât need to do
Ty
I'm here.
What's express?
Otherwise I think you do chaos dungeon for gear that you can hone.
I just said
Big menu
Open up when you load in
I donât know how else to describe it
Itâs an event
Also in the top right next to the map
Chaos dungeons keep on giving me the same gear over and over.
That gear you hone
Ok. I'm gonna do a dungeon and see where I get.
Please
You can only start story express on a new character though
It's very worth
Especially if youâŠdonât know how to hone
Won't I start from the beginning of the campaign again?
To be fair story express doesn't teach you that either.
Yes. But you donât need to hone at all until 1340 ilvl
It will be faster
You get given pre honed gear
Well no but at least heâs stuck at 1340 rather than 302
I have to play eeeeeverything from the beginning now? đł
You donât have to
But the way you are doing is going to take longer
A lot longer
I'm berserker (only character I'm playing).
At lvl 302
Story Express will be a lot faster for your main.
I also advise you to YouTube how to hone
Because, Iâm confused as to why you are stuck
The honing NPC is pretty intuitive
I'm gonna do a dungeon and see where I can get.
If you've never played a korean MMO before it isn't really.
You'd assume that "upgrade" actually does something
But honing isn't especially complicated to learn, either.
Ngl, I havenât before, but like, you can only do some things at the honing guy
Even by process of elimination
You get there
There is also just a perfectly servicable tutorial on the subject.
That too
Anyway back to the main point, story expressing a new character to endgame will be faster than grinding one out to endgame the hard way. They are apparently trying to make that process easier, but we have no concrete information on changes to t1/t2 progression.
And we donât know when thatâs even coming right
I didnât see it on roadmap?
Though could have just missed it
May might have some adjustments, but we don't know anything for sure. Other than cube/boss rush going away
Oh and the low tier guardian raid changes that probably aren't going to matter
I think slayer might come out with cube update too this month
it better
Are we also getting kt changes with slayer
Lol but they prob gonna nerf it
Oh ya that's good too
It scks rn hving to wait 8 hr and doing them 1 by 1
The date may 10 was already announced.
Fr I am not doing elgacia on 4 chars
Oh good
it is they already confirmed it
Gonna push two 1460 day 1 
Same

Chaos dungeon gave me useless stuff. Still can't upgrade anything.
I assume you need leapstones?
Ya most of time it's useless stuff lol
Idk what to do.
honestly u should just start over using the story express pass
It's upto you but I bought amulets and used dust to get lvl 5 important tripods
I have 68 leap stones
But people will prob say it's waste of pheons
Okay so what do you need that you don't have?
I have no idea. I just can't progress. Stuck at item lvl 302.
Yeah. My first mmo too lol.
Have you gone to the [Gear Honing] NPC?
Yes.
just restart and use the story express
Bro use story express event it will get you to 1340 without honing anything
And what do you need to upgrade and hone your gear that you do not have?
ur wasting a lot more time trying to hone
Just by doing story
Y'all, they're never going to learn how to hone that way.
I mean it's 100% anyway
We established earlier that yes, it's faster to get to endgame with expres.
In lower lvls lol
Unable to participate.
But they still need to know how the damn menu works.
It needs total fresh character
they csn learn later
story express is so sleeper
As opposed to gear grinding your first character?
Ya but as new player you hv to do story anyway


Everything from the beginning? How does that make sense? It says required item lvl 1340 to participate. If I start a new character I'll be on item lvl1. Won't I?
thats hyper
Yeah, but itâs basically a free south Vern power pass.
the other one
That's hyper express, not story express
would rather amputate my arms.
Iâve done the entire msq three times 
And just by doing story you get gears
Story enjoyer
You don't hv to hone anything if you are new player and use story express
his other option is to buy a punika powerpass
This one?

Yes but you can't use it cus your character is 302
also use win shift s to screenshot
It needs new character
Sorry, can't sreenshot on windows. Game will start loading for too long so I'm taking pics with phone.
anyone know if we getting a new power pass and also the same express event with slayer?
It is unfortunate to run the entire story up to this point again, but it saves you time in the long run
ic ok
They literally said in the roadmap we would be.
Pp yes dk about express
Both powerpass and express for both Slayer and Aero
if i want to make a sharpshooter instead of slayer, can i make him now and throw him into training stronghold and then activate the pass and event when its live on him?
i mean u can yea
as long as his ilvl stays under threshhold
cant remember, do i dismantle these gems, or do something else? lvl 43 character atm
You can just dismantle those
o ok
normal level dont matter
why tho
just ilvl
heâs gonna be level 10
why what
for lvl 59? 

bro who dont train in the SH?
I can see lot of people not making slayer after what they did to reaper đ

slayer is releasing this early because they want ppl to roll her before the nerf
Since slayer seems op in kr so she might get nerf
Slayer patch wont be for a while & they won't redo what they did with reaper
đ
the before nerf thing is miles away
we just got new patch notes KR
there are no nerfs.
balance isnt for a while
Good I wanna try her
lies
wat was the ilvl again?

o then we good
ppl i need a 3 predator 5 grudge earring to set my 5x3 slayer

Same
i mean pretador predator3 grudge 5
yea thats a 3
i`m dumb dumb
class accessory
I need class 3 and preferably grudge 3.
Ez 500k gold 
There is no way to buy sailing coins from store right?
Ah trying to rush 34 sea bounties but I'm running out of maps to get
but other than that. only from island quests, events and daily rewards
alot of rapport people
have sea bounties
I got all the rapport and adv tome ones already
pain
I'm at like 21 maps completed out of 34
no real easy way to get the others then tbh 
could you provide the KR patches? and is possible that they release the nerf first hand to US kek
If I can try find one in eng for you and
nah i highly doubt that
big balance patches for KR come all at once
can be in english, google translate for us S2
will probs be in summer
can be in KR i mean

It sucks to replay with a new character again just to progress with the story express. This game is too complicated. Playing the campaign from the start with a new character is so boring.
Game is actually quite simple compared to other kmmo like blade and soul 
Now I just play until when?
Where I ended up with my 1st char?
Where is your first char
There where I got stuck at item lvl302.
You were like, halfway to south vern
How am I sure I'll pass that or just end up at another dead end like before?
Because it gives you prehoned gear
So no need for chaos or honing etc
Till south vern then the express will help you up to 1445
If only the devs were better at making objectives simple.
Then I ditch my last char forever and continue with my 2nd further?
No if your still interested in it you can knowledge transfer it
game teach u how to progress... honing/etc, story express skip honing sections
It will just complete that continents world quest for you tho you will need to hone it to that's continents ilvl
I give up. Time to uninstall. This game requires Einstein IQ minimum. I'm done.
