[fallow trail]

Going to have to ask for help with someone on your server (not region).

Maybe ask in area chat or try #na-west-region-chat

[frigid stream]

ok

[wintry tapir]

im trying to spend money and cant preview most the stuff i wanna buy?

and web searches are turning up nothing any tips?

[quiet perch]

ghost ship got removed? I dont see it in calendar.

[heady hollow]

yes

[quiet perch]

How does one complete una?

[timber mauve]

Tbh, I thought they changed it.

Idk, it got merged into the new chaos gate.

[quiet perch]

oh

honestly i didnt read una, i just checked calendar

[radiant flame]

The ghost ship una is now just go to the ghost waters

Thats it

[lime owl]

Hi, i played this game when it first came out and havent touched it in almost 2 years, me and my friends are starting from scratch going through the whole plot and whatnot again, but when we finished Yorn i expected to be able to get tier 2 gear. all I got from chaos dungeon was mats and jewelry, does tier 2 no longer exist or am i forgetting something? i dont see it on available mats in chaos dungeons either, but i just wanted to make sure

[quiet perch]

you dont have a ticket to skip everything?

[pseudo atlas]

nvern to beginning of punika is now all one gear set

[rose wren]

only t2~t3 exist

[lime owl]

I have a ticket to jump to south vern. me and my friends just wanted to do it all over again for the heck of it, i just dont remember having to upgrade using tier 1 mats all the way up to ilvl 900

[rose wren]

stuff changed overtime

better use south vern powerpass as the non jumpstart will be gone

[pseudo atlas]

the aeromancer powerpass expires next week so you might as well use it on a random character (though it does skip the long boring ass awakening quests for the whole roster)

[lime owl]

shucks, wonder what i should do with all my tier 2 mats haha i kinda wanted to avoid powerpass just because i wanted to be able to relearn stuff since i forgot everything :/

[quiet perch]

some of them can be converted

The oreha gem surely can, idk if anything else

[radiant flame]

nothing can be converted between t2 and t3

[quiet perch]

i bet some stuff can, since i did convert it via disenchant

[radiant flame]

No

I'm telling you nothing can

What you did was convert some old old T2 stuff into the consolidated T1/2 mats they have now

which are just the old T1 mats

[heady hollow]

but rfp

[quiet perch]

mate i disenchanted t2 oreha looking mat which said "this cant be used now but can be disenchanted" and got t3 one

[radiant flame]

That's the old simple t3 fusion

they got rid of the first tier of t3

[quiet perch]

it was blue, huh

[pallid panther]

They arent ?

[heady hollow]

unless ur a single gem class, not really

the cost is too high

gold can be spent elsewhere imo

[radiant flame]

whatever, maybe the old caldarr fusions can be converted? happy to be wrong about that but it's kind of irrelevant regardless. you can't make them any more

[pallid panther]

assuming soul eater full moon

[heady hollow]

is that the spec one?

[pallid panther]

yeah

its 3 gems i guess

[heady hollow]

i dont have their builds memorized

[pallid panther]

maybe 4

but pass gives 2 8's right

[heady hollow]

yeahh so in that case it might be, but even then, youll be fine for 9s to start

[radiant flame]

there are better things to spend 1.5 million on

[trail hawk]

so i have this question... where did this 3+1 system came from, meanin that player nr1 has to be bottom. when argos came out, 1 was alyways on top.

[radiant flame]

but sure if you've exhausted every other progression system

[heady hollow]

in order to gear my main with full 10s, it would cost me 4.1m gold

[radiant flame]

Day when are you deleting your GS

[quiet perch]

this old t3 fusion?

i found it in buy back on one of my old chars

[trail hawk]

this is t2

[heady hollow]

never

[radiant flame]

no that is old t2. so yeah, I guess you are right

[radiant flame]

if that dismantles to t3

cool, TIL

[pallid panther]

So better go full 9's ?

[radiant flame]

but, it's kind of useless/irrelevant

[quiet perch]

oreha is not useless

if you have legacy characters

[radiant flame]

sigh.

ok

point is, you cant convert t2 to t3 under normal circumstances

[heady hollow]

More worth imo, unless you really have that gold to spare for 10s

[radiant flame]

that conversion is a consequence of the honing changes

[radiant flame]

i mean, almost always

[pallid panther]

I guess it make sense

[radiant flame]

especially considering if you have the gold for 10s, you probably have alts

and those alts need gems too

[pallid panther]

I was thinking about get a 10 dmg gem

and use both of 8's dmg gems from path of soul eater

But not sure its better than 3 9's

[radiant flame]

but like, why do you want a 10 so bad

the gold cost is so inefficient

to get a 10

[pallid panther]

It is, and if you fail to create

You lose a lot.

When it comes to a 10 cd gem

[radiant flame]

lol, you're going to gamba?

[vast oriole]

At valtan
Only eu was using nesw, rest were using x3 or x3+1

[pallid panther]

Either that or sell 3 9's and buy

Those are the options

[radiant flame]

Or you can...not go for the 10

Honestly, I have no idea how rich you are

[pallid panther]

not much lol

[radiant flame]

But unless you are loaded, 10s are not worth it

[pallid panther]

i saved 1m

for her

and mats

[radiant flame]

1M is nothing

[vast oriole]

I would just have 9s tbh, unless youre igniter surge or like barrage

[pallid panther]

yeah i got a 10 for my surge db

[radiant flame]

I had saved 900K or so for slayer

[timber mauve]

If you’re pushing for 10’s, 1M ain’t jack shit.

[pure berry]

can someone post the 5x3 helper

[radiant flame]

Literally all gone

On honing

[heady hollow]

When is rfp gonna fund me three level 9s for my gs

[pallid panther]

That 1m is just to get her to the end game

Not to buy gems actually

but i could

by farming more when it releases

[radiant flame]

I just don't understand the tunnel vision for gems

[vast oriole]

I mean i have multiple of the same class and i dont even invest in gems

9s are perfectly fine

[obtuse canopy]

Is the great success chance for stronghold crafting applied when starting to craft or upon claim only ?

[vast oriole]

I tend to gatekeep people with 10s

[heady hollow]

I only have two level 10s on main

[radiant flame]

I mean, almost certainly on craft. Also great success is useless

Just stack cost reduction

[vast oriole]

I didnt even have 9s becore like last month

And i got only 2

[rose wren]

i would actually have 10s but open weekly for aero, full 7s+a class i dont really use

[vast oriole]

I just sell all 7s i make every week

I need to fund my skins addiction

[quiet perch]

how many and how does one makes 7s?

[trail hawk]

out of 6s

[quiet perch]

ok...
lets jump few steps, where does one get enough 1s?

[radiant flame]

I mean just do chaos dungeon and cubes

that's where most of your gems will come from

[buoyant herald]

weekend pvp island also gives 10 boxes with lvl 3's

[radiant flame]

And if you can stand it, do it on multiple alts

etc etc

[vast oriole]

• kayangel boxes that gives 2 level 5 for free

[quiet perch]

is that pvp gear balanced?

[buoyant herald]

it it but it doesnt matter you get the same wether you win or lose

[quiet perch]

it does matter how i feel

[radiant flame]

?

I mean nobody takes that seriously

[buoyant herald]

its team pvp

90% of the ppl afk

[radiant flame]

^

[buoyant herald]

or just fuck around

[quiet perch]

nice design

[radiant flame]

I mean

[buoyant herald]

only takes a few min and rewards are the same for everyone

[quiet perch]

on the pvp island for gold i did everyone tried their best

atleast it looked like that

[radiant flame]

"their best"

[quiet perch]

it was fun, what i mean

[buoyant herald]

well in gold island gold reward depends on the placement

[radiant flame]

I mean even then the difference is minimal lol

[pure berry]

is there a 5x3 cheat sheet for ancient jewlery?

[radiant flame]

Yes - it's called learning to add to 15

6+6+3, 7+3+5, 6+9, 12+3

etc

[pure berry]

no shit

[trail hawk]

google "engraving calculator"

[radiant flame]

?

But that is all there is to it

[pure berry]

just looking for a quick ref to match with me engraving no a smart ass remark on how to add to 15.

[radiant flame]

You can even set up the sums yourself on excel/sheets

[vast oriole]

I mean engraving calculator doesnt do shit

[rose jewel]

https://loa-todo.com/engrave

[pure berry]

is this not a help chat?

[rose jewel]

use this and do basic math

[vast oriole]

It wont tell you what accs u need etc

Its literally just adding numbers till 15

[trail hawk]

you dont even need math, the tool already does it for you, just input numbers

[radiant flame]

Toxic

[buoyant herald]

with ancient you just have a looot of freedom if you just wanna build 5x3

can have shitty stone and have a 33 acc and still get it

nothing much to calculate

so there is no "calculator" for it idk what you expect

[rose jewel]

everything done and given to him on his hand for him

0 work

[radiant flame]

for the cheapest price, highest quality

what are you waiting for tank

get to work

[buoyant herald]

on it

[vast oriole]

I just use it to keep track of my negatives because im dumb as hell

[buoyant herald]

i use the todo too just to make sure i dont fuck anything up

but i wouldnt call it a calculator

[vast oriole]

Ye

More like a planner

[lavish dune]

aye

you can do something like 4x2+2 on artist right?

im not sure is it 3x2+2 or

[vast oriole]

4x3 2x2 yes

[rose jewel]

maybe

read the guide

which you probably have open

[vast oriole]

Or 4x3 +2

[lavish dune]

Soo do you think it's gonna be expensive to build that ?

[rose jewel]

dear lord

[vast oriole]

But might not be worth anymore

[lavish dune]

how so

[vast oriole]

Just go for a basic 5x3

[lavish dune]

I don't think i'll need VPH for 5th engraving

i mean i never fail at stagger

[radiant flame]

lol

what

[rose jewel]

.....

[radiant flame]

you personally?

[buoyant herald]

5x3 artist is like 15k

[vast oriole]

Youre not even high ilvl

[rose jewel]

and thats why you read guides

[lavish dune]

Gold ?

[rose jewel]

and then understand why people use the engraves

[buoyant herald]

• pheons but yeah

[lavish dune]

i mean gold yes surely what else xd

[vast oriole]

Stagger later are harder

[rose jewel]

instead of just coming to personal dumb conclusions yourself

[lavish dune]

which boss?

[rose jewel]

no offense

(a lot of offense)

[vast oriole]

Akkan g1

[buoyant herald]

i built mine for like 35k but i was getting blue + qualities

[radiant flame]

brel

[vast oriole]

Pls dont build with worse than blue qual

[lavish dune]

i did brel hm g1-2 stag wasnt prob

[radiant flame]

clown

and that was all you?

[buoyant herald]

doesnt matter for supp

[vast oriole]

Brel 1-2 barely has stagger

[radiant flame]

nothing to do with the raid group?

[lavish dune]

what do you mean

[vast oriole]

And thats why i gatekeep cheapos supports

[radiant flame]

...

[lavish dune]

what man xd

[radiant flame]

everyone staggers

[buoyant herald]

supp > no supp idc

[vast oriole]

Brel g3 already bigger stagger, even worse if people deadge

[radiant flame]

so yes, some groups have good stagger and it doesnt matter if you dont have a lot of stagger

[vast oriole]

Akkan g1 is annoying stagger aswell if your comp has shit stagger

[radiant flame]

other groups are lower stagger and there a supp with vph can make a huge difference

its quite naive to just think "i've never failed stagger so vph is useless"

[lavish dune]

Meh supp doesnt even use spirit absorption

[radiant flame]

sigh

at least read and understand the guide

do you even know why they use SA

[rose jewel]

read the goddam guide and actually understand it

[radiant flame]

artist has long cast times and animations

SG in their wisdom decided that yearning buff doesnt apply to the person wearing yearning

so even at max swift, you're not capped on attack speed

ergo, you have more to gain to cast faster

[steep badge]

everything is okay

[vast oriole]

Thats why i said it might not be worth anymore to go 4x3 2x2
Because hopper animation got changed so a lot of artists in kr changed their build to a basic 5x3

[lavish dune]

IAM READING IT

NO SA I SWEAR

[radiant flame]

artist in particular suffers slightly from long animations (hopper is a huge issue right)

[rose jewel]

what are you reading

the icons?

[vast oriole]

.

[lavish dune]

XD

right

[rose jewel]

go read the damn text

[radiant flame]

like, the section above on engravings?

[rose jewel]

everything

[lavish dune]

they are buffing it

[radiant flame]

my god

[lavish dune]

im so sorry

[vast oriole]

Ye because i told you...

[rose jewel]

imagine reading a damn thing

[lavish dune]

ye arna told me

[lavish dune]

ok hol up ill actually read it

[crimson niche]

[lavish dune]

like no joke now

[vast oriole]

I might still use sa2 because its only the end of hopper that got faster

[rose jewel]

yeah no i dont trust you

[radiant flame]

like, i don't even play artist. im just trying to explain the reasoning behind these things

[rose jewel]

i'll just go my merry way

[lavish dune]

Sigh... reading again

[radiant flame]

which is explained in the guide

[crimson niche]

for being not offensive, you're being very passive-aggressive 👀 @rose jewel

[rose jewel]

you must be new

[radiant flame]

resident toxic helper

[rose jewel]

at your service

[crimson niche]

reading is hard! having to use both eyes yknow is tiring

[radiant flame]

It's funnier when they literally have it open but don't read it

[vast oriole]

Sa2 was really a min-maxing thing anyway, usually u would go only 5x3

[lavish dune]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1156396201776783503/1173069082174693447/image.png?ex=65629cb7&is=655027b7&hm=ba0448d6fbd5b17bbcb1e471bdd56fc60ac45390ae32e077ebefc23024636a90&

[crimson niche]

shrugs

[lavish dune]

despair

[crimson niche]

happens

[rose jewel]

you know

[crimson niche]

xD

[vast oriole]

And yes vph is important

[rose jewel]

the thing i said like 5 mins ago

[lavish dune]

what does ancient min max mean tho

[radiant flame]

Just to maximise your potential

[crimson niche]

minimum ancient accessories

[radiant flame]

Like, to achieve ceiling

Stuff like removing HA

[rose jewel]

no, minmaxing has another meaning

[radiant flame]

Becuase HA doesn't help your team do damage

[lavish dune]

ancient gonna be expensive i dont think i can go for with 18k gold

[crimson niche]

[vast oriole]

U need ancientgear to make it work or a 9/7

[crimson niche]

usually building a character from the ground i'd say get to 30-50k gold

that should get u somewhere nice for quite awhile

30 for if you get it cheap i guess

[lavish dune]

if you can

[vast oriole]

Just go 5x3 really

[lavish dune]

and it's written in guide for SA

but they dont have it there

i mean in the engraving builds

[radiant flame]

Maybe

[lavish dune]

there's crisis evasion for +1 5x3

[radiant flame]

They leave it to the person to decide

[vast oriole]

Because its a min max thing

[radiant flame]

Because you can think for yourself too

right

[rose jewel]

riiiiiiiiight

[radiant flame]

you just told us you never fail stagger

so yeah, I guess vph is completely pointless for you

[lavish dune]

crisis evasion seems good, im noit using spirit absorption in this build but using VPH

[vast oriole]

Personnally i dont find ce1 interesting so on my alts, i just have basic 5x3 with relic

[lavish dune]

So heavy armor, awkakening, full bloom, ha and vph

[radiant flame]

[rose jewel]

you find CE1 good when you are a bad player and die to dumb shit

[vast oriole]

Missing expert

[lavish dune]

expert too yes

[rose jewel]

no offense

[vast oriole]

Ye but ha3 already helps u with that

[rose jewel]

that's the point

[lavish dune]

yeah same as i thought

[rose jewel]

you dont need it

but well

you also dont need VPH3

[lavish dune]

also hopper is good enough

[rose jewel]

right?

[radiant flame]

just go grudge

[lavish dune]

wtf

[radiant flame]

min max

[rose jewel]

powered up 100k damage skills

[lavish dune]

rfp has had enough of my dumb questions to the point they started calling me dps artist

[lavish dune]

didnt you say you need it

akkan g1

[radiant flame]

wym dps

[vast oriole]

I would actually like if ap engravings would count in our ap buffs

[radiant flame]

supports do 2/3% raid damage

[rose jewel]

im

out of here

[vast oriole]

Less

In a 8 man its not even 1%

[radiant flame]

it will be with grudge:D

[lavish dune]

you're kidding right

what do you do with grudge for supp XD

[haughty hound]

what is the averave DPS numbers a 1540 character can do in trixion lion test? ik it depens a lot of factor, ut my pistoleer is around 3.3milion and im not satisfied :/ all lvl 7 event gems

[lavish dune]

no come on help me build my first 5x3 goddamnit

[rose jewel]

non answer: trixion parses are kinda shitty
answer: ask in the class channel

[vast oriole]

Might ask in deadeye channel

[lavish dune]

Hey arna

You're artist main too right? what engravings do you use?

[vast oriole]

I mean i said it

[lavish dune]

where

[heady hollow]

yall still talking about artist

[vast oriole]

On main artist i use the 4x3 2x2 and on alts im using the basic 5x3 awa fb ha exp vph

[rose wren]

class,max mp,expert all u really need

[vast oriole]

Not max mp on artist

[lavish dune]

i dont think you need max mp on artist

you wont be spamming skills that much

[vast oriole]

Can u not misinfo, hes already lost enough

[heady hollow]

[vast oriole]

You kinda spam, just less than bard

[radiant flame]

your damage is your damage. nothing someone else will say will really be useful to you. if you have followed the build guide correctly, its just getting better gear (weapon quality, set level, gems, tripods etc)

and then for fights, improving rotations

[rose wren]

engraving isnt that huge of a list for healer anyway, just pick 'em

[radiant flame]

and uptime

[lavish dune]

So 4x3 are full bloom, expert,ha and vph ?

[vast oriole]

Its not a healer

[lavish dune]

what did i forget

[vast oriole]

Awa before vph

[radiant flame]

...it's in the guide is it not

[lavish dune]

awa yes

then 2x2 vph and sa?

[vast oriole]

If you want to go 4x3 +2 the +2 is ha

No

Ha2 sa2

But dont go that

Go 5x3 basic

3 times i told you

[radiant flame]

^

[lavish dune]

But what if i dont find good quality accessories and skills would be just slow without sa

[radiant flame]

bloom, expert, awakening, ha

[heady hollow]

@vast oriole im gonna raise my 1520 artist to 1540, what engravings do i go?

[radiant flame]

+flex which i think should be vph

[radiant flame]

are you listening to yourself

you are max swift class

you think you'll be "slow"?

[vast oriole]

Recurrence grudge kbw adre cursed doll

[heady hollow]

okayy

[radiant flame]

weve explained that sa is for min maxing only

[rose wren]

its easy to hit max dmg speed than cooldown

[radiant flame]

youve even told me you know some animations are changing

[lavish dune]

but if someone does min maxing thing they already bought ancient accessories basically better stats by that time they got max animation speed why would they need sa

[radiant flame]

fad;oiaf;oiwie;o;iouaw;ioufw;iouawefio;uaew;ioafwe

[vast oriole]

Use galewind on orchids, it helps speed up the animation

[radiant flame]

i cant

[lavish dune]

i honestly didnt know anything arna told me lmao

[lavish dune]

yes i am using it

[lavish dune]

no chill

[heady hollow]

wait is this actually a tech i should do that

[lavish dune]

xD

[vast oriole]

Thats what i do

[radiant flame]

i already explained that at max swiftness you do not get max attack speed

so it doesnt matter if someone has 100q everything

[vast oriole]

Because getting orchids interrupted makes me want to k*ll myself

[radiant flame]

theyre still short

thats why they get sa

[lavish dune]

how do i check my atk speed though

[radiant flame]

if they want to min max attack speed

[vast oriole]

You dont get more swift on ancient compared to relic btw

Only vitality and intelligence changes

[vast oriole]

So u dont need to go ancient, just go relic

[radiant flame]

literally right at the top

[vast oriole]

My second artist is 1580 and still rocking relic acc and wont change

[lavish dune]

second let me go with artist

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1156396201776783503/1173072418324099124/image.png?ex=65629fd3&is=65502ad3&hm=33ccfce6a89e1d66af5b241a51e96fa6c28af931502db8ddbaa074adb14fcc65&

[vast oriole]

Drops is shit

[lavish dune]

can you tell me what are those two engravings at the end ?

[vast oriole]

Pls never use it

[lavish dune]

i dont like drops

[radiant flame]

drops/vph

you know, the bit above explaining what engravings are would tell you that too?

like, with the pictures

they're the same pictures

[lavish dune]

i didn't look in the guide, my friend did i can't read it for 2m without having my brain not braining

[heady hollow]

[radiant flame]

im going to stp

[radiant flame]

you realise you are literally making us repeat the guide

its infuriating

[lavish dune]

So i am missing 10% here

WYM

[heady hollow]

[lavish dune]

XD

[rose wren]

pet?

[lavish dune]

So bloom, awakening, ha, expert and vph ?

please tell me yes

[vast oriole]

we said it 10 times

[lavish dune]

sorry

So i wanted to show you some accessories i got today

i think they might help out for building it

72 quality though

[vast oriole]

blue qual goodenough

[vast oriole]

yes its a good rign on the left

[lavish dune]

But move speed reduction +2...

[vast oriole]

both are good

[lavish dune]

can i fit them together?

i mean use both

for 5x3

[vast oriole]

u dont have leg books?

[lavish dune]

i dont think so yet

[radiant flame]

why dont you use an engraving planner

[vast oriole]

cut the stone first

take a def red one

[lavish dune]

i dont know how to build them i never did it before

[radiant flame]

then learn

[lavish dune]

idk how much nodes accessories can have or anything

[rose jewel]

use logic

[radiant flame]

learn to add to 15

[rose jewel]

common sense

[radiant flame]

relic is 5/3 max

ancient 6/3

thats all the information you need

[lavish dune]

rings?

or which

[radiant flame]

same

ALL

KL:JRKL:JEJL:KR

[lavish dune]

all can get 6/3 ?

oh wow

[radiant flame]

like you can even search this in game

[lavish dune]

goddamn

Should i get those to +12 ?

or full bloom cus i got class engravings

[shy chasm]

if you run class 3 you need clas book

[vast oriole]

you need at least one of them at 12

[radiant flame]

most people will build with 2x legendary books

[vast oriole]

i guess if you plan to get another support, awakening at 12 could be good

[lavish dune]

Just this once... one at +12? it will work right?

im low on gold xD

[vast oriole]

depends your stone

[radiant flame]

i dont know what your stone is

[vast oriole]

thats why i told you to cut a stone before anything

[lavish dune]

you told me

defense red stone

[vast oriole]

yea

defense reduction stone

[lavish dune]

defense reduction negative you mean right

[vast oriole]

yes

[lavish dune]

yes

alright but

which engravings ?

[radiant flame]

you don't have to

its just that def reduction doesnt matter with HA

[vast oriole]

its the easiest

[radiant flame]

like, any of the other engravings

you're using

[weary whale]

do lush trees have better rewards than regular trees? or is the only difference literally that you dont have to move as much

[lavish dune]

it does you get that -2% or 5%

jk its nothing

but i care about that

[radiant flame]

i mean, can you please

just watch a video

on engravings

or something

you refuse to read stuff

[vast oriole]

you dont, ha completely negates defense reduction malus

[radiant flame]

but you're asking us essentially basic mechanic questions

[lavish dune]

oh it says

this defense is immune to defense reduction effects

[heady hollow]

[lavish dune]

XD

[vast oriole]

see, its nice to read sometimes

[paper walrus]

reading comprehension 📉

[lavish dune]

you're damn right

can i go 5x3 without +12 ?

[shy chasm]

depends on stone

but regardless youll need 1 12

[radiant flame]

maybe

[heady hollow]

almost like arna answered this

[radiant flame]

there is something useful in the pins

too

[vast oriole]

and i said earlier you can always go 4x3 +2, 2 being ha2

as long as the quality doesnt sucks ass

[lavish dune]

one of them is 12 but the other one how many ?

[radiant flame]

like

are we for real

[heady hollow]

bro

what

[lavish dune]

im sorry what

[rose jewel]

tell him again

[radiant flame]

the other has to be at 6

[rose jewel]

check the fucking pins guides and planner

[radiant flame]

so if you increased to 9 with purple books

your account is fucked

[vast oriole]

signum lost patience XD

[lavish dune]

i have support engravings at +9 yet

wdym account is fucked why

[radiant flame]

of course if it's not 12 you want it to be as high as possible, so 9

smh

[lavish dune]

so that's really diffcult to get

isnt it

[rose jewel]

im out for real

[radiant flame]

I cant

lol

[lavish dune]

BRO WHAT

[rose jewel]

cant help someone that doesnt wanna get helped nor tries to

[radiant flame]

engraving books are just gold

you can always buy them

[lavish dune]

i just checked pins

i think i can do it

7/7 stone ?

with def reduction

[radiant flame]

yep, just cut a 7/7 smile

[lavish dune]

but also if heavy armor engraving negates all defense reduction debuffs from gear shouldnt you just buy every accessory with defense reduction negative stat on it ?

[vast oriole]

you can yes

[radiant flame]

but also, you can avoid malus by just...planning properly

[vast oriole]

^

[lavish dune]

So if i find accessory with -2 atk speed reduction and i got 0 on it i get it ? instead of defense reduction

it would help for like prices i think?

[radiant flame]

nothing to do with prices

just plan it out

this was my last one

[heady hollow]

scrapper

[radiant flame]

i checked for all the accs, put in malus etc

[lavish dune]

was that one + 12 ?

[radiant flame]

can you

read

[vast oriole]

can you buy glasses

[lavish dune]

oh i didnt see that

i already have those

:(

[vast oriole]

chanmge them

you need new ones

[radiant flame]

at least sg cares about scrapper

[vast oriole]

im sad about what you said

[heady hollow]

Real

[vast oriole]

:(

[radiant flame]

its ok, gs will get identity gauge in loa 2

[vast oriole]

at least gs got something, we got -2S COOLDOWN ON SPACEBAR

[radiant flame]

when activated, boost srf damage for 1 second

[candid lake]

i wish there was a class that had a gauge where if you use a certain amount of skills, you can activate an enchanced skill that completely changes it

[radiant flame]

i mean isnt that soul eater?

basically?

[heady hollow]

What’s the cd of space bar with full swift anyway? Like 5 seconds right ?

[vast oriole]

idk

something like that yea

[radiant flame]

swift doent affect spacebar cd iirc?

[vast oriole]

it does

[heady hollow]

It does

[radiant flame]

orly

huh

[heady hollow]

Good job arna, you can now space bar every 3 seconds

[vast oriole]

let me spacebar

[radiant flame]

bard feels sluggish to me still

maybe i need the 2s

[paper walrus]

artist feels like ths luggish one for me

[vast oriole]

because u dont use sa2

ok i stop

[vast oriole]

its like 7sec

so 5 after patch

[heady hollow]

[rose wren]

i get like 6 not max q swift

[vast oriole]

it shows 6 but its 7

[lavish dune]

is it ok if i bought +12 HA instead of other engraving in the build for 5x3

it's just cheap

[vast oriole]

its fine

[radiant flame]

then you cant use ha on your stone

[lavish dune]

that still wont give me negative defense reduction effect

i'll have ha at lv 3

right

[radiant flame]

i dont understand the question

[vast oriole]

can you read heavy armor effect

you will have your answer

[lavish dune]

rip in piece gold

[candid lake]

yeah, def reduction is negated with heavy armor

like as in heavy armor prevents it from actually taking place

[radiant flame]

man

why did you buy books

in one go

[candid lake]

but it will still be in your engravings red list

[radiant flame]

you probably bought some overpriced ones at the end

why didnt you listen to arna

who told you to cut stone first

CUT STONE FIRST

[candid lake]

which class are you doing this for?

[vast oriole]

i even said that he can go ha2 and if he will do other support, to buy awakening books XD

[vast oriole]

artist

[radiant flame]

there are players who only see the cost and nothing else

[vast oriole]

looks like me when i bought legendary skin on support

[lavish dune]

My artist

[jovial valve]

im new should i play berserker or paladin

[lavish dune]

What do you mean?

[main smelt]

does punisher slayer have more stagger than pred?

[vast oriole]

berserker is a dps, paladin is a support what do you prefer

[lavish dune]

berserker is dps class and paladin is support

[radiant flame]

no

swift classes almost always have more

[radiant flame]

you bought HA books solely on cost

[jovial valve]

are they both wanted equally in parties?

[vast oriole]

paladin most wanted

[rose jewel]

i would argue paladin is more

[vast oriole]

(any support really)

[lavish dune]

I bought 20 books they were like 10k or smth

[vast oriole]

but if you prefer berzerker, play berzerker

[lavish dune]

I have Heavy Armor at +12 now

[lavish dune]

Oh man talk to me about low dps, no los and no good roster

[vast oriole]

please dont discourage people to play dps

and play support just because its ''cheap''

thats why theres so many shit supports

[jovial valve]

wym by that

[lavish dune]

I'm good support

[heady hollow]

i left a brel lobby because both supports were rainbow stats no gems

[shy chasm]

Most sups are just 4x3 with like 5 lvl 5s

[lavish dune]

It's just the reality of this game i swear

[shy chasm]

Or just no gems

[vast oriole]

yep and most of them are shit

[shy chasm]

And some don't actually know they have dmg buffs

[radiant flame]

yes, you probably overpaid, because the last few books would be more expensive than usual

[lavish dune]

I think you are right

It was dumb of me i didnt look

Got scammed again

[radiant flame]

scammed?

you scammed yourself

[heady hollow]

jesus christ

[radiant flame]

because you didn't read

[lavish dune]

Liberaly scammed

[vast oriole]

i mean maybe you will learn to listen to us

maybe

[lavish dune]

YOU DIDNT TELL ME ABOUT THIS

I'm losing my ark

[radiant flame]

we told you to cut a stone first

did you do that

[lavish dune]

no

[radiant flame]

ok

[lavish dune]

I will now

[radiant flame]

arna also suggested that you buy awakening books

because theyre more useful if you planned playing other supports

[lavish dune]

Bro awakening books cost 3.5k

[radiant flame]

did you consider that

[lavish dune]

I'll need three meta ages to finish it

all i got is one roster at 1540 which is artist

[radiant flame]

you could have also got VPH books

[heady hollow]

shouldve farmed more gold before doing a build

or legit just go 4x3

[radiant flame]

which are like, 100g each?

or less?

[lavish dune]

i didnt check those

But ha was 400g

It was pretty cheap

[lavish dune]

untill last few

450g

Xd

[heady hollow]

im gonna have an aneurysm

[lone sigil]

Dude spent 10k each on heavy armor books

[vast oriole]

yeas because usually supports go ha2 or dont go at all (paladin)

[lavish dune]

Ha was 388-450 so cheaper

[lone sigil]

[vast oriole]

so if one day u decide to do a paladin, you will neede another leg book because heavy armor is trolling

[radiant flame]

someones been making supports eh

[lavish dune]

I don't think i'll ever create supp again if i get los 12 or 18

[radiant flame]

whats los12 going to do

[lavish dune]

Flex

[radiant flame]

get you denied from more parties?

[lavish dune]

Nah

[heady hollow]

los12

[lavish dune]

but

U change dmg to

Holy

[radiant flame]

and

[lavish dune]

So vykas

[radiant flame]

what does that do

[heady hollow]

literally does nothing for u

[lavish dune]

nvm who does vykas

[vast oriole]

it helps on brel g3

[heady hollow]

rfp make it stop

[lavish dune]

that too

[radiant flame]

i can mute them

but i need a reason

[heady hollow]

[radiant flame]

stupid isnt a reason i dont think

[lavish dune]

Who

[radiant flame]

day

[lavish dune]

goddamnit what did i do

[radiant flame]

Honestly? You've wasted a bunch of people's time here because you have refused to use the resources that are available to you

[vast oriole]

because i think before i build

[radiant flame]

Resources we pointed you to

[vast oriole]

see how i didnt max heavy armor even if its cheap?

[lavish dune]

There's a point if it's on artist tho?

and cheap

[radiant flame]

People like arna have been incredibly patient (more so than I have) and have tried to give you actual direction

But you're for some reason also arguing against what we're telling you to do?

So yeah, it's pretty frustrating for us

[vast oriole]

again, couldve gone ha2 to cut the cost

[radiant flame]

well for me

[vast oriole]

[radiant flame]

Maybe arna is fine with it

[lavish dune]

:/

[radiant flame]

Like, do you just want to scroll up and see how many times you asked for what the 5x3 engravings for artist are

[vast oriole]

meh im just chilling with music now

no more mad

[radiant flame]

While having the artist guide open

While arna was also telling you about 5 times in chat

[vast oriole]

best artist build

trust

[radiant flame]

?misinformation

what the fuck

[heady hollow]

w command

[radiant flame]

why doesnt that work

[heady hollow]

nt lil bro

?misinfo

[sage dune]

Spreading Misinformation is against the rules!

Spreading misinformation intentionally or with malintent is against our server rules. Even as a joke, the truth gets misconstrued and people get confused. This includes editing official sources for the game to imitate the publisher or a GM.
There will be penalties for such actions.

[radiant flame]

a;oiweuriu;oweiouawer

im done

[radiant flame]

toxic

[rose jewel]

welcome to my life

[vast oriole]

hey man its fun chaos

[heady hollow]

[vast oriole]

i mean, i wont say anything about wasting gold because im the queen of buying dumb shits but if you know your gold is limited, you need to not do any mistake

i do dumb shits because i know i can recover fast

[frigid stream]

so how does gems work when switching them from a main to an alt? Do I have to refaceting them every time I switch the gems

[vast oriole]

oh no i dont cash

i just have okayish roster

[lavish dune]

crisis evasion

[vast oriole]

if its not same class yes

[frigid stream]

oof

[rose jewel]

how about

not doing that and instead you get gems for the other char

his/her own gems

lv5s are both easy and cheap to get

[vast oriole]

i say no.

[lavish dune]

Wow

[rose jewel]

besides you get like, a full set of lv6 (7) gems with the event

and you will get a new event which gives the same in like 3 days or 4

idk how many char you have

[vast oriole]

or play 6 chars of the same class

[frigid stream]

Yeah I just seen someone swap gems from a main to an alt so wasn't sure how it worked

[heady hollow]

you share gems if you play the same class

[lavish dune]

the heck? why

[heady hollow]

you dont share gems otherwise

[modest saddle]

Hi all I have a character on a jump start server using the Jump start story express can I some how use that on another character as I'm not liking my current class

[heady hollow]

no

[vast oriole]

question is, why not

[heady hollow]

inb4 support class

[vast oriole]

poggers

[radiant flame]

luterra

[heady hollow]

wow arna took my luck

[vast oriole]

close

not even card exp because hes not maxed

[radiant flame]

you should have opened in rohendel

[vast oriole]

i just open in chaos, i really dont care

i have lwc and mos dont need more

[faint pagoda]

obv open in arthetine duh

[haughty hound]

quality 70 on an alt acessory is suficient?

[vast oriole]

Ye

[faint pagoda]

depends on the class

[vast oriole]

U might want a bit for if spec

[haughty hound]

pistoleer

its an necklace swif/spec

[radiant flame]

Read community guide?

[lavish dune]

should i do this ?

[minor bear]

What should i do if i got kicked from a Brel G4 raid?

[shut pasture]

Sure? You don't use that currency for anything else

[vast oriole]

Dc u mean?

[heady hollow]

paper, can you fix the reset command? its off by an hour

[minor bear]

yes

[vast oriole]

Well nothing

U pray that u get a ticket

[shut pasture]

?reset

[sage dune]

Daily reset is different for NA because of DST.
ＮＡ reset local time: <t:1644404400:t>
ＥＵ reset local time: <t:1644400800:t>
Weekly reset is on Wednesday server time.

[faint pagoda]

seems fine

[lavish dune]

nothing good

[shut pasture]

Is it not adjusting to local time?

[paper walrus]

no

[pseudo atlas]

it's 'cause of the date on the time

[faint pagoda]

for me it says 11 am and its correct

[pseudo atlas]

ran into the same issue on a different server

[paper walrus]

its adjusting, but na reset is one hour ahead

[heady hollow]

oh wait does it show local time

because naw is 2am reset, not the 3am thats showed

[paper walrus]

timestamps dont adjust for dst, itll show the same hour no matter what

[lavish dune]

i hate pheons system

so much

[faint pagoda]

[vast oriole]

i hate pheons on skins

[haughty hound]

dude i hate pheons, why they dont take it of the game? makes no sense

[radiant flame]

It makes sg money

Moving on

[vast oriole]

Because

My answer is better

[haughty hound]

no sense dude, just no sense it exest

[radiant flame]

Did you read my answer

Because it doesn’t seem like you did

[heady hollow]

people say pheons shouldnt exist because they tried cutting a 7/7 stone and didnt get it

now tell us, is that what you tried doing

[cold cloud]

im stuck at lvl 39 stronghold with no research left gonna take forever to get to 40 any tips or just send ships out

[faint pagoda]

craft oreha

[vast oriole]

craftt

[radiant flame]

Just dispatch, craft

[heady hollow]

make waterwheels

or any cheap piece honestly

[vast oriole]

f*ck you

[radiant flame]

You can awaken your weakened kakul

[haughty hound]

i did, but the money they loose scaring ppl to join the game because sistems like this counters this :/

[radiant flame]

lol

[heady hollow]

[radiant flame]

I don’t think

[vast oriole]

no it doesnt

[radiant flame]

I need to even respond to that

[vast oriole]

people dont leave the game for pheons

they leave the game because grind/gatekeeping/etc

[heady hollow]

@haughty hound were you cutting a 7/7 stone

[haughty hound]

yes and no, i mean, not just for this

[radiant flame]

Anyway #lost-ark-discussions please

This isn’t a channel to complain about pheons

Or I dunno, post on Reddit

[haughty hound]

nhe :/

[faint pagoda]

my friend is sitting on 600 pheons f2p

just depends on how you play the game

[faint pagoda]

[lavish dune]

how??!?!

you can either exchange your gold or get it from event what else

[faint pagoda]

stuff they give for free

events

[lavish dune]

really smilegate just remove it x

[faint pagoda]

compensation

[vast oriole]

not the place to complain about it

pheons are just extra gold

[wary lintel]

only for free, never bought

[vast oriole]

couldve a lot if i wasnt dumb

[lavish dune]

[modest saddle]

If I can't swap over the jump start express to another character is there any point in playing on the jump start server or just jump to a main server.

[floral saffron]

What

Why do you need to swap it

You put it on one character and push them

[modest saddle]

I do not like the class it's on and have chosen to play another that I'm enjoying more. And don't plan on continuing with the class that has it active

[floral saffron]

Then rip bozo

Should’ve researched classes better

[pseudo atlas]

did you hone at all on that class?

[modest saddle]

Only lvl 34 so I don't think so.

[pseudo atlas]

oh so you only used the story express

[modest saddle]

Yes

[pseudo atlas]

not really important in the grand scheme of things

[floral saffron]

Oh

Lmao

Well

1. You won’t really get a good feel of any classes until you hit endgame and get the endgame gear sets

2. You aren’t anywhere near the endgame gear sets

3. You can easily remake a new character use the powerpass you are given and play them instead

[pseudo atlas]

you can make two characters with south vern powerpasses on jumpstart or you can make one on normal servers, also next week we're getting another south vern powerpass that can be used on any server (the aeromancer south vern powerpass will expire)

[wary lintel]

man lvl 34 its like 2 hours of playing the game

[pseudo atlas]

it's more like 5 hours or something

that's a solas run

[modest saddle]

I took it slow lol

[pseudo atlas]

with cutscenes it's more like 15 hours

[modest saddle]

I don't want to use the power pass as it will skip alot of the story

[pseudo atlas]

if you want to read the story you can use the powerpass on a new character and play on your lower character

the idea is just to use the resources that will expire instead of letting them expire

anyway the jump start servers will be added to their respective regions expected next month or so, so i'd personally make more characters on the jump start server at this point

[timber mauve]

I would highly suggest using the power passes before they expire. Even if you just use them then leave the character as soon as you’re spat out in north Vern. Those power passes are worth like $70 each.

I’d just use them on a random class you think you’d like.

[deft sand]

Whats comfy for a chaos alt, between sorc, scrapper, or deadeye? I have a story skip that I guess expires in a few days and figured I might as well create something to use it.

[modest saddle]

Ok I'll make some classes use the passes on them.

[radiant flame]

Sorc is probably the best for chaos dungeon out of those? I mean chaos is always fine as long as you’re on a chaos build

Possible exception of empress which iirc has awful chaos

[deft sand]

That was sort of my thought. It probably doesnt matter and I should just pick one I might want to play in the future

[radiant flame]

Yeah that’s probably more relevant imo

[brazen leaf]

What event are there next week?

does it give gems

[peak silo]

At what lvl do I start doing hunts cause I’m a rookie to the game and new to the community

[pseudo atlas]

hunts?

[brazen leaf]

raids

[peak silo]

Raids yes my bad

[warm tendon]

Two events, one from 1415-1540, that gives gems, and the other from 1540-1580 which gives extra mats + better honing odds

[timber mauve]

I’d give #new-player-tips a read then get back to us with any questions you have.

[split kayak]

if i expand storage 2nd page on 1 char, will the other char also have theirs expanded?

[modern skiff]

no

[opal cargo]

Are we getting a south vern express with this soul eater express next week?

[shy chasm]

Yes most likely

No chance for elgacia pass rn

[modern skiff]

[brazen leaf]

How long does it take for someone before they DCed from raid

[timber mauve]

Game takes like 5 minutes to start up. So I’d say between 5-7 minutes.

[heady hollow]

also dependent on what kind of dc they got

[timber mauve]

But they could’ve just alt f4

[heady hollow]

full close or back to server select

also kinda depends on their pc a little bit

[brazen leaf]

10mins

[elder moat]

Which gunner class should I choose?

Is machinist any good?

[timber mauve]

Yeah, they just dipped bro

[timber mauve]

Read pinned class faq

[hidden basalt]

Whats the point of fishing?

[timber mauve]

To get fish

[hidden basalt]

Oh really? thanks

didnt know that...

[timber mauve]

You can sell fish on the market for gold. Fish is a life skill material that’s used to make fusion materials used when honing gear.

[hidden basalt]

Ahhh, okay thanks.

[hidden basalt]

As a new player should I be doing or worrying about it?

[timber mauve]

I would suggest burning your life skill energy on either excavation or fishing. There are guide quests for life skills that’ll give you tools.

[hidden basalt]

Sounds good thanks. Ill probably just stick to fishing

[sweet glade]

does anyone know where the right click to move settings is?

[minor briar]

gameplay control common control

[iron grail]

Stopped playing around August and just came back. Now when I use AOE skills I get this yellow line(Bottom) instead of the old Blue Circle I used to have(Top). How do I go back to the blue circle for AOE skills? This yellow line is almost unplayable with.

[shy chasm]

[candid lake]

ive never seen that yellow line before o-o

[minor briar]

might be skills instant cast

[minor briar]

under same settings as ^

[iron grail]

its the worst man. when in raids and everything is going on, i cant ever see it

skill instant cast changes nothing. do need to mention I play on controller

[restive heath]

maybe that's the problem

[iron grail]

played over 2600 hours on controller before I took a break and always had that blue circle on every AOE. Now after I came back its this yellow stupied line

since it seems only 1% of the LA player base uses controller its so hard to find help for things

[minor briar]

is it skill specific?

or all skills?

[iron grail]

all skills where blue circle

any skill on my DPS characters taht where AOE and any skill on my supports where I put down AOEs all used that Blue circle. Now they all use this skinny yellow line and show no circle. Even my throwables like bombs used the blue circle so I could see the size of the explosion. Now they all use that yellow line. Im trying to contact support, but support wont let me link photos to show what im talking about

[minor briar]

hmm

if u send a pic in discord, then u can copy that link

and itll show

ye, but that seems to be controller only

as ur "cursor"

[iron grail]

it seems like they tried to do some AOL for controller with this, but it is SO much worse and I just want the old way back. Ill try linking the photo that way. ty for the help

[karmic ferry]

is there a spawn timer online for Kohinoor or do i need to manually check in game?

[bold geyser]

the world boss?

its on the hour for days which they're up, as for which days...

not certain, it may be specific days of the week?

[balmy plank]

Just check the in game calendar

[weary whale]

do lush trees have better rewards than regular trees? or is the only difference literally that you dont have to move as much

[deft sand]

Can anyone recommend dismantle settings for amulets that will keep any amulet that could extract an upgrade but salvages the rest? I thought I had a working setup, but it isnt getting rid of uncessary amulets

[pseudo atlas]

uncheck the second option in the exclude part of autodismantle settings

[pseudo atlas]

afaik there is no way to get back the old display, which is very stupid because keyboard still uses the big blue circles that are good

[queen quarry]

will this remain in my storage after the current mokoko xpress ends in the next maintance ?

[bold geyser]

wait, how do you get a level 10 gem? the fuse menu only goes up to 9

[pseudo atlas]

slam them in manually

[bold geyser]

oh XD

[heady hollow]

bro wants to auto fuse to 10
