#

Events will have random legendary card packs like the event shop, mokoko express, and the road to SE should have some packs

#

Event abyssal dungeons have a chance of dropping both selectors and random leg card packs

#

but aside from those, nothing really else

umbral kestrel
#

i see

warm tendon
#

Getting LOS cards is a long grind

umbral kestrel
#

i mean i just wanna reach 18

warm tendon
#

It took me about a year to reach LOS 18

umbral kestrel
#

im at 10 rn with like 6-7 card selectors

warm tendon
#

If you're going for 18

#

Have you been tracking lostmerchants?

umbral kestrel
warm tendon
#

ahh

#

merchants also spawn balthorr if you haven't been tracking that

umbral kestrel
#

yh almost maxed balthor

warm tendon
#

then at that point, it's just RNG

#

took me personally ~15 months to get LOS18

umbral kestrel
#

if i use all selectors i could prob reach 15 i think

warm tendon
#

don't

umbral kestrel
#

yh i shouldnt use yet

warm tendon
#

if you see yourself playing for a long time, save all your selectors for LOS30

#

Sometimes it's worth using a few to get LOS 18, but only do that when you're guaranteed it

umbral kestrel
#

i mean i just wanna reach los18 with the selectors

#

so i dont get gatekept as much

#

so i dont mind using the selectors i got rn for LOS18

lone sigil
#

its okay, once you reach los18, you get gatekept for not having los30

umbral kestrel
#

not as much

#

but sure

tall socket
#

my region is not supported i need vpn to play

warm tendon
#

restart your vpn and try

#

most of us don't play with VPN so it's really hard to help

#

VPN and Lost ark don't always work well together

tall socket
#

i tried, and i even tried changing the vpn its stuck at SA servers

lone sigil
#

may have to route to a different country first

#

or use another vpn

heady kestrel
#

hello! Someone can help me? my lost ark does not work after easy cheat

tall socket
vast oriole
#

or move to a country that is supported

heady kestrel
warm tendon
#

did you try verifying files and/or reinstalling?

tall socket
vast oriole
#

It was a joke obv

warm tendon
heady kestrel
tall socket
warm tendon
#

try these two solutions above

#

trying another VPN is prob a solution to work

#

sometimes they block specific VPNs and it's really annoying and hard to know which one works

tall socket
#

so i did try other vpn and it didnt work but my god, so now i am gonna fish for vpns until it works XD

warm tendon
heady kestrel
tall socket
#

one last thing are jump servers worth it or are they dead ?

warm tendon
#

eh i think it's slightly still worth, issue is that most of the events that are worth there are ending next week

#

so up to you

tall socket
#

i am just here for pvp as long as i can find players in pvp i am fine with it

warm tendon
#

pvp is dead

#

if you're trying to play the game for PVP, then don't play the game

tall socket
#

i mean when i played the game for the first time it seemed playable and alive but that was since launch

warm tendon
#

no one does it anymore

#

so you'll either be playing the same people all the time

#

or in 20+ min queues

#

the game is not meant or balanced for PVP

#

think of it as an extra feature

tall socket
#

the 3v3 pvp is 80% balanced

warm tendon
#

classes are not balanced for pvp

#

so no it's not balanced

tall socket
#

oh ur talking about classes i thought the p2w

mellow mauve
warm tendon
#

again, don't play the game if all you want is PVP

#

this is NOT a PVP game at all

tall socket
#

specially that i am gonna start fresh character if i cant access the EU and my main character

warm tendon
#

there are things like powerpasses that can skip you through like 70% of the story

#

so you don't have to do the 15-20 hrs of the story at the beginning

tall socket
#

and how do i use this ?

warm tendon
#

you log in, it is given to you in your mail

#

you use it

#

and apply it to a character

#

everyone has 1 free powerpass right now, and jumpstart servers get an additional one

tall socket
#

that is on normal servers only ?, cuz on jump server i didnt get that

warm tendon
#

you get the powerpass in your mail

#

and then the additional one is in your product inventory for jumpstart servers

tall socket
#

now thats i guess the best thing i have heard so far about this game and updates lol

maiden locust
#

can u swap classes

warm tendon
#

the only way to play another class is with a different character

fervent mauve
#

If I want to farm honor shards on an alt what is the order of priority

warm tendon
#

mainly through dailies

#

Here's a list of what you can get from
Event npc if any, boat merchant, weekly guardian raids (not daily, challenge ones), first time completion on Punika and Elgacia hard mode story dungeons, guild shop, the obvious chaos dungeon, chaos gate, daily/weekly una's, clown shop/brel shop, chaos line, pvp vendor and if you're stupidly desperate infinite chaos dungeon shop

#

priority is based on what you have available

maiden locust
#

can you reset roster level?

timber mauve
#

Make a new account shruge

warm tendon
#

or make a new roster on a different server

#

why would you want to reset roster level tho..

timber mauve
#

Masochism?

maiden locust
#

just asking

#

im not lol

warm tendon
#

there's ABSOLUTE 0 reason in game to reset roster level

timber mauve
#

Imagine just finishing Esther 8 for $65k…
Then you hit the reset account button

#

Smilegate infinite money glitch

quiet perch
#

is this is good line?
or i missing somethings and its not good?

warm tendon
#

circulate is one of the best lines

quiet perch
#

the over 60 line, how it applies?

fervent mauve
#

is circulate a one time proc

timber mauve
floral saffron
#

it rotates between the 3.

fervent mauve
#

I think this person is asking about how it works on foes above lv 60

timber mauve
#

There aren’t any enemies over lv60 in the game

quiet perch
#

the result

#

the last line doesnt look good.

warm tendon
#

yea mileage isn't a good line

wintry mantle
#

guys why i cant designate the character in current region?

warm tendon

#

like WHERE in the game is your character

#

Ah... The haunted island thing

vast oriole
#

#

get out of the island

timber mauve

#

there would be new event in a week yes?

warm tendon

#

is there some eng vid with spoilers?

warm tendon
#

Well Voidis is being released then so look up that if you're really interested

#

Events tho, 0 idea

minor trellis
#

hey guys, does pleccia msq is needed for all character to going on voldike ?

maiden locust
#

yeah u need pleccia story for voldeez

#

u also need a set of prologue quests that are rosterwide

final fog
#

how much are lvl 10 gems usually? i understand theres a bit of an inflation going on

maiden locust
#

last i checked on market its like 400k per

#

checked just now, cheapest cd is 219k

#

cheapest dps 463k

#

and one is 4 million also

#

if you want

warm tendon
#

lvl 10 dmg gems will always be a lot more expensive than cdr gems

lone sigil
#

right now inflation is worse than usual

light hamlet
#

7 chests only gave 9 tokens?? That's less than the max amount you can get from a single one

silk shard

Thats a normal roll

pseudo atlas

it's not an equal chance to get min roll vs max roll

1 per box is already decent tbh

card packs from challenge abyssal

outside of that just get lucky from raids

calm iris
#

what are the best dps classes for late game pve?

paper walrus
#

all classes are viable

#

some are wanted more than others for ease of use, more desirable synergy, or higher dps ceiling

#

but play what you want

warm tendon
#

Don't meta chase.

balmy plank
#

Thats a very vague idea to answer tbh

#

Play whats fun

warm tendon
#

Play classes that you think you'll enjoy

#

Because if you enjoy, you'll want to learn and improve and be better at

calm iris
#

thats fair

paper walrus
#

easy - aeromancer, predator slayer
desireable - db, gl (maybe less now), wd, gs
higher ceiling - idk i havent kept up with patch notes

warm tendon

By being better, you do a lot more damage

And the other one you linked u cant really ask anything, its just for screenshots, but i think can get an idea

swift dew
#

should i +12 my gear before i complete South Vern so I can just get right into the Valtas stuff and such or get to 1340 and do south vern then level from there?

rose wren
rose jewel
#

it doesn't matter if you overhone your gear for story or legion raids, you want to be +15 anyway

don't stop story progress to hone, if that's what you're asking

untold depot
#

for the 9th ignea token which one would be easier for me

balmy plank
#

Arthetine is really easy. Rohendel is easy if you have the Unas done for food

untold depot
#

rohandel no food done

solar owl
#

Hi, can i go full swift/crit entropy PS for anciens, or 60/40 entropy is better?
They do same dmg?

untold depot
#

arthenine no food done either

balmy plank
#

S Vern is pretty easy too tbh. The Oysters are the only real pain in the ass as well as clearing Brel G4

untold depot
#

how bad are oysters

balmy plank
#

I think I did it in 3-4 hours? It was a long time ago tho

#

Long for a single food

untold depot
#

oh

#

i see

#

so which one of those 3

#

are the least bad for food

balmy plank
#

Id tackle Arthetine probably

untold depot

cuz that shets is pain

Easiest foods

i did the feiton one

@rose jewel hi, already asked but no one answer and no one talk there

rose jewel

well

rose wren
#

where to which ?

rose jewel
#

i cant help, never played the class

#

besides there is a guide for that

#

you already read it?

#

idk if it answers your question, but it should

#

anything not in the guide is probably not really optimal

rose wren
#

processor npc for boat

dark vigil

#

@rose jewel yeah but only say relic = full swift / ancient = 60/40 but didn't say swift is bad so just wondering if i can go full swift for ancient or do i lost dmg

calm iris

#

near dock

calm iris
#

any dock?

you will see some boats icon there

it has to be for the continent

but yeah any of it

#

thank you

pallid aspen
#

When it comes to progging akkan and acquiring the gear, how did people approach getting full set as possible? Like for example, did people do normal until they got 3 parts and honed those until they hit 1600? Or did people just full send normal until you eventually hit ilvl for hard mode?

rose jewel
#

that is the only reason

#

relic is not just "relic", it means "5x3 build"

outer merlin
#

just starting to do hell raids, is there a place that shows what builds you use for those? I'm going to be playing empress arcana

rose jewel
#

Hell Academy, but i think class guide have them

dark vigil
#

but you can always hone when you got 1 piece

quasi tree
#

More akkan pieces = cheaper to hit 1600

dark vigil
#

if you are that desperate to get your full gear full hone to 1600 and go hm

quasi tree
#

Statics usually pushed to hm same week

pallid aspen
#

True, as far as I understood it though, you roughly get around 22 mats every week (assuming akkan doesn't have that first time clear double bonus), and including first time clear and assuming I do 1-3 successfully every week, that's around 13 weeks of prog (just doing normal mode)

#

I guess i'm not in any rush tbh, I was just weighing my options

dark vigil
#

you don't have to fomo

pallid aspen
#

I hit 1580 on my main a while ago and I already missed 1 week of akkan, but ik the whole process of learning it and whatnot takes some time

maybe you get a quadriquintillion gold, or maybe you get like 20

if it not worth it so fk it

merry timber

so its random

rose jewel
#

yeah between like 15 and 25

merry timber
#

wwhat so not worth it

rose jewel
#

island soul, quite worth

#

but whatever

#

imagine not enjoying a game you play if it doesnt reward you "enough"

merry timber
#

i want gold

#

i dont waaant to enjoy

balmy plank
#

The straight answer is ~750g

#

I think it scaled off ilvl tho

merry timber
#

iam leevel 1500

balmy plank
#

Yes. At 1580 i get ~850, youll probably get a wee bit less

rose jewel
#

bro

merry timber
#

oh ok that cool

rose jewel
#

look again which island is it

merry timber
#

ok i wil lpplay it

balmy plank
#

Oh yea wtf

rose jewel
#

bruh momento

balmy plank
#

Ignore me, I thought it was an adv island

merry timber
#

so how much this give ?

rose jewel
#

just dont go

balmy plank
#

Youll actually get like 20g

#

Go for the Island souul, not the gold

rose jewel
#

since the game is not rewarding you enough for doing a fun activity

merry timber
#

i dont want it

rose jewel
#

block it from the alarm as well

merry timber

literally block everything

How often do Wandering Merchants sell legendary cards?

#

I swear it's been a dry streak of 7+ days in US West

#

and I think I'm underestimating it, pretty sure it's closer to 2 weeks

pseudo atlas
#

it's entirely random and server dependent

#

going weeks without a spawn is not unusual

#

if you're going off only lostmerchants.com then spawns can be missing since it's all crowdsourced reports, but if you're checking every spawn yourself then rip

warm tendon
#

On my server, Elzowin, we didn't have a Wei for like 4 months

#

It's ENTIRELY RNG and we don't know the odds

pseudo atlas
#

according to lostmerchants, azakiel has had more spawns than some other non-jumpstart servers

which sounds cool

it is quite hard to detect something just reading network info and parsing it without going way past reasonable limitations

heady hollow
#

the people who are paranoid about using it just run it on a vm which makes it even harder blurry

#

but anyway

old peak
#

I wonder why he’s so against it

heady hollow
#

most common arguments is that it can be used in a toxic way, and then maybe the more copium take is that it reveals how poorly balanced the classes are

old peak
#

Makes sense. I pondered that for a sec. People could use it to be hella toxic.

is there a way to see the guardian boss hp bar when running solo?

#

idk, me personally, idm dps meter shruge

#

holds people accountable

#

although that might be an elitist take

rose wren
#

"o no ur missing 0.01%dmg"

heady hollow
#

such a strawman

#

when people bring up meter, its because someone with way better gear is doing wayyyy less damage t hen they should be

trail hawk
#

only op classes allowed

heady hollow
#

not "0.01%"

rose wren
#

yea

#

there's no op classesKEKDog

pseudo atlas
#

the argument for meter is always either "i'm toxic and i hate everyone" or "it helps me or my group of consenting adults optimize rotations by analyzing our runs" and there's rarely anything between

The Ultimate Reaper Infoset

Below you can find a comprehensive list of useful information for the Reaper class. This list is not exhaustive, but it should give you a good idea of what to expect from the class.

reef pecan
#

how i know i have completed this or not?

trail hawk
#

J, completed quests?

reef pecan
#

i mean this levi lettter quest

#

not that quest las melody , is this legend scroll i not sure i put it on which char.. mayb it completed mayb not .. is it possible to check i complete it levi letter or not?

trail hawk
#

ah i see the quest below, its how you get this npc in your stronghold

reef pecan
#

or if borza visit she 100% will hv overwelm rune on sold?

#

if so then i able to knw i completed borza or nah

trail hawk
#

yeah

#

nah, its at 70% feiton as it says there

#

yeah but who would do feiton to 70% first before doing feiton?

#

purple quest you mean?

pseudo atlas
#

it's also locked behind a 5 day required quest chain or something like that

#

most people who have completed it have completed it because of powerpass

#

for the character you use it on yes

trail hawk
#

pp does all the quests

pseudo atlas
#

anyway i don't think anything automatically completes the quest from the letter so if you have the letter the answer is "nobody has completed it in your roster"

#

purple quests are not roster-wide

#

roster quests are roster-wide

#

the quest is not roster-wide unless it says the words "roster quest" on it

#

here's an example then: last melody of a requiem is a purple quest that is not a roster quest. it also unlocks levi rapport. however, it is not a roster quest, so it doesn't unlock levi rapport for the roster

#

it will only unlock levi rapport for THAT CHARACTER

#

because it's not a roster quest

hazy ridge
#

is there something up with fish? i was buying in stacks of 99 but now theyre all being limited? its all the same price

#

and its weird theyre all in the 16-18 stack range

not all purple quests are rosterwide, and i believe that's kaiki's point

and i agree with him

heady hollow
rose jewel
#

we agree to disagree then, it's ok

heady hollow
#

gets disproven, "no point in discussing this" Nerdge

but i dont agree on the other thing about purples

i will stay here trying to help people with questions coz why not, it's like a hobby

so you're trying to argue that i type a lot, when i help people and you don't

radiant flame
#

Not sure what the point of all this is

heady hollow
#

bros mad we chat on a discord

warm tendon
#

And no need to bring it up?

radiant flame

Then take your harmless statements elsewhere, simple as that

Seems like your attachment with the amount of messages is strong

imagine trying to help people and people be saying "no liferz"

#

guess i'll let newbies be on their merry way uninstalling the game day 1 coz not a single soul helps them

#

just what we need in this game

#

who is DA

heady hollow

w ping lil bro

#

No one is getting offended

i type like that and i like to troll people who type like that

warm tendon
#

I can join whenever I want

#

I don't need an invite

heady hollow
#

sorry vex, ur not allowed in this channel Nerdge

warm tendon

rose jewel
#

the point was not all purple quests were rosterwide, we agreed to disagree, then all this started

If you want a private chat, take it to DMs

Can someone help me understand why these books are worth so much?

warm tendon

Supply and demand

paper walrus

people buy the books

price go up

Guess Im making 40k then xD

heady hollow
#

no ur not

rose jewel
#

i doubtr it

analog onyx
#

I have 40 tradable purple book chests

paper walrus
#

you flood market with overpriced books

#

price go down

warm tendon
#

the main reason why it's so high is cause there's probably not a lot of books available

#

the more you put, the lower people will put the price

analog onyx
#

so I should only sell a few of them then?

warm tendon
#

yes

#

a few at a time

radiant flame
#

Also look at average price

#

Nobody is actually going to pay 1k for a purple

heady hollow
#

no ones gonna buy at 999

its gonna go back to 200-300 ish

The Ultimate Bard Infoset

Below you can find a comprehensive list of useful information for the Bard class. This list is not exhaustive, but it should give you a good idea of what to expect from the class.

lavish dune
#

yo

#

does bard

#

have good stagger ?

#

Also why is there a specialization build for bard

#

she is support no?

valid jackal
#

Hello, couple questions as a returner, since I forgor everything cause my brain tiny:

  • Are Field Boss "1 time daily" roster or character bound? I assume Roster but just being sure.
  • Are Chaos Gates rewards redeemable daily or weekly?
  • What the frick is Primal Island?
  • Which 3 Adventure Islands pop are different every day?
  • What are Challenge Abyssal Dungeons? They just look like old abyssal dungeons to me, are they supposed to be harder?

Sorry for the dumb questions. I could have googled all of this, and I tried, but I came across a bunch of different articles and websites and it just felt like conflicting information pepenote

paper walrus
lavish dune
#

swift probably better ya

#

She uses HA engraving too right?

#

i have been told she doesnt need it

#

but it's easier to get accessories with defense reduction debuff to build it..

paper walrus
paper walrus
#

i use it

valid jackal
#

Cool, cheers. pepenote

lavish dune
#

i need it too then

#

XD

#

she doesnt use

#

VPH

#

which is good

paper walrus
#

she uses vph

lavish dune
#

u can use other stuff

#

wtf

#

but why is there

#

max mp increase?

paper walrus
#

max mp is good

lavish dune
#

like she will run out of mp that fast?

radiant flame
#

Yes

#

Bard is really bad for mana

#

Dumb design, to be honest

mellow mauve
radiant flame
#

Even sound shock you need it

#

(I still run the old build)

paper walrus
#

weirdge but harp unlocks you so much

lavish dune
#

in my artist i don't use max mp increase if i spam skills like all of them even with missing some i will start to run out of mp

paper walrus
#

because artist has a good mp skill

lavish dune
#

is it the same with bard or you have to manage it more?

mellow mauve
lavish dune
#

only for allies i believe

paper walrus
#

you get it

lavish dune
#

oh

#

neat

#

so artist better

#

XD

mellow mauve
#

eh

#

each support offers different things

lavish dune
#

i'm curious to know what's the difference between those two

#

cus i want to build one but i also thought i can make

#

another artist

radiant flame
#

If I’m being honest, I wouldn’t build a bard right now.

#

There are some inherent problems with the class

#

Which SG are too lazy to address

lavish dune
#

ahh

radiant flame
#

No cleanse, terrible utility on core skills

#

Though it remains the ceiling support

mellow mauve
# lavish dune i'm curious to know what's the difference between those two

bard has better push-immunity,higher dmg increase on their identity (when using three bubble), the best healing in terms of group/burst healing, and gives the highest as from their buff skill. artist has better uptime on their identity though it's lower than bard's 3 bubble, artist kit is allows you to offer a lot without needing to give up or slot in another skill, artist has better individual healing so you don't have to lower your identity uptime to keep one person alive

radiant flame
#

I’d even say artist has better burst heal than bard tbh

mellow mauve
#

nah

lavish dune
radiant flame
#

You can drop 3 balls and it’s instant

lavish dune
#

with full bloom

radiant flame
#

Bard needs the last tick

lavish dune
#

well that sucks

radiant flame
#

Anyway it’s minor. I don’t disagree bards heal is ā€œbetterā€

mellow mauve
lavish dune
#

the class seems fun really

radiant flame
#

Yeah agree

radiant flame
#

Bard?

lavish dune
#

yes

radiant flame
#

No support is really fun lol

#

I don’t think

lavish dune
#

why

radiant flame
#

You are just a meter robot

mellow mauve
lavish dune
#

i enjoy raiding with artist

mellow mauve
#

you're fun, may not be what they find fun

radiant flame
#

I’m being facetious.

#

Objectively - supports are meter robots

#

You don’t have to learn any normal patterns usually

lavish dune
#

thats true

radiant flame
#

You just stand in stuff and cast your stuff

timber mauve
#

I fucking hate playing sup, I’d rather uninstall. But my guild mate has 12 sup and hates dps shruge

mellow mauve
radiant flame
#

Even in Akkan lol

mellow mauve
#

nah, you get punished in akkan

#

especially hm

radiant flame
#

Obviously you can’t just tank gauge

#

But anyway

lavish dune
#

what do you think about paladin?

radiant flame
#

I think paladin is both more boring

#

And more interesting

mellow mauve
lavish dune
#

XD

radiant flame
#

Boring because all your buffs are aoe

lavish dune
#

isnt it good

radiant flame
#

You basically need no actual skill to do the support aspect

#

Yes it is good

lavish dune
#

that's even better

mellow mauve
#

just really boring

radiant flame
#

Paladin is easily the best all round support

#

But you could play it blindfolded

#

The other aspects though - you have one of the best counters in the game

#

And you have actual utility

lavish dune
#

Cleanse too?

mellow mauve
#

yea

radiant flame
#

And you can also play skilfully and do well with stuff like magick stream

lavish dune
#

that sounds good really

#

if it can help clear the raid

radiant flame
#

but the biggest issue with support play is that you do the same thing at 1400 as you do at 1600

#

My bard hasn’t changed since Valtan release

#

And for me, personally, that is boring

lavish dune
#

ah true that

#

it's same thing

#

Soo

#

should i build paladin then?

mellow mauve
#

play w/e interest you

radiant flame
#

I mean it’s up to you

lavish dune
#

i have 4 dps characters and 1 support which is my main but 1 other spot left

#

i dont think its good idea to have 5 dps

#

i get gatekept sometimes with roster 90

radiant flame
#

Gotta have fun though

mellow mauve
lavish dune

paper walrus
#

bard having mana problems doesnt make it a worse class

mellow mauve
# paper walrus bard having mana problems doesnt make it a worse class

It's a con. If you're making comprasions between the three supports. Needing an entire engraving + food to compensate mana issues makes you worse than a class that doesn't need either to perform well (This does not mean bard is bad or to not pick bard. Just mana issues is a downside to playing bard)

heady hollow
#

it does because it stifles their build diversity Weirdga

shut pasture
#

Its either Bard with mana problems, Paladin with 😓 gameplay, or Artist with no one using your orbs

how do i enter tubulik battlegrounds?

when people do brel gate 3, do they assign spots beforehand?

for the green white blue purple mech

parties should be renamed and you go off of party number for that

oh ok

tawdry bane

do I still need to do kuku if im already 1490 ilvl?

paper walrus

im confused about the g3 brel spots, so GGWW is for the first 4 players in party 1

then what about party 2

it's like 3k over valtan or something

bbpp

tawdry bane

bbrr or bbmm or bbpp are all common

they all mean the same thing

paper walrus
# tawdry bane whats kayangel

you do clown to get your set effect to level 2, but at 1490 you can skip to kayangel, which gives set effect level 3

#

who wrote bbmm weirdge

#

lots of parties

keen depot
#

what is MM?

paper walrus

makes as much sense as bbrr when the dot is clearly purple

what should i do in the mean time while i look for teaching groups? should i still upgrade or mostly farm mats to level the new gear i'll be getting from like vykas and such?

paper walrus

farm mats

#

do your chaos dungeons and guardians

#

chaos gates, field boss, do horizontal

#

look for any skill point potions you're missing

#

get wealth runes

#

work on better purify because akkan is unfun without purifiy

So the waiting/farming game. Got it

paper walrus
#

if you're on epic gear i think you can still hone

i might be wrong

covert bramble
#

Is dmg numbers static in this game

#

Example.i crit 42m on brutal impsct

#

Does that mean all crits on brutal impsct

#

Will be 42m

#

Or it can crit for lower

paper walrus
#

can crit higher based on supports buffing, atrophines used, party synergies
can crit lower based on boss defense, boss damage reduction, boss not facing you
not an exhaustive list

I have a question about character leveling Im new to the game and my first character is slayer i got her to around lvl 23 and I wanted to try some other classes will i have to go through all the story quests so far again? Also what is story express I have it on my first lvl 23 acc.

Story express is an event made for people to do the story manually, all the way to endgame

#

No you don't have to do everything again, you can use something called a powerpass, you should have gotten 1 for free on your mail, it skips to endgame

#

If you wanna do more chars after that, you can use ingame gold to skip story on your alts, it's a bit costly but it's time vs gold

So I just cleared valtan, how can I join it again to reclear?

next week's reset

#

legion raids are once per week per character

#

you can do as many (different) legion raids as you want, you can't just repeat the same on the same week

any char lv11+ will take 60 days to reuse the name, 10- is instant

#

Oh why do people keep posting reclear parties?

rose jewel
#

reclear doesnt mean they cleared several times with that char in the same week

#

it means they are experienced on that raid, cleared it several times in the past

#

Oh ok, thank you
