Coincidence most likely, but it does seem like EUC is still having some DC issues
EAC could be causing memory leaks on your end for the EUC version of the game, leading to DCs or Windows slowing/freezing
ExitLag has a Trial version so it never hurts to see if that solves your issue (if its ping related)
If it physically slowed your machine then its not a packet loss thing or ping related
Its likely client to server and one of the processes that the game runs
EAC, or something with the game
Memory Leaks need an extended playtime but it could very well be one
Not if its a severe leak
But also ExitLag won't do shit for you in this situation
If it was just ping, sure, but it doesn't seem that way
a vpn helps in no way to eac stuff, if eac dies then gg
r u able to change the dx it uses?
no
If its an EAC issue that AGS has to resolve then its far out of your hands
11 by default, they deleted 9 support
ah
but then it would affect way more ppl
you think it doesnt affect more people?
reddit has way too many posts about eac its not even funny
GPU : Asus Tuf 7900 XTX
CPU : Ryzen 7 7700 X
RAM : Trident Z5 Neo RGB 64 Go DD5
MB : Asus Tuf B650
I really don't understand how it can slow my computer. My windows and drivers are all updated.
I've looked at the Official Discord, good number of reports still about constant DCing
Also they just endeavored to address DC issues specifically on EUC the other day
at what point do i want to think about selling gear on the market, how do if something i get is what people want, is tehre a guide for that
I guess this is a game issue then
Possibly, if its happening with no other game from extended play
My DC issues were related to the games routing so fixing it wasn’t too hard
This is beyond just DCing, though
pin guide somewhere or not pin, which engraving r useful, then u just have to remember the combo and sell
They said their whole computer slowed and they had to restart it
I had but for my friend it worked afterwards
r u lv50?
oh is it like a secret skill?
if its 2nd awak go trixion
No, not secret
oh awakens i see
awaken skill
thought these were the only 2?
awaken quest after combat 50
Elevé = high
Faible = low
Do I have the most optimal settings there ?
1 more level wooo
doing awaken quest unlocks a basic skill
for people with lots of alts, is 2x legendary engravings like KBW + cursed doll worse in the long run than 1x dps engraving + legendary class engraving for every alt
.. since you cant cut class engravings with stones i guess it'd be expensive but havent checked market examples
lv50 and finish north vern
Level 50, get to North Vern
easier to gear if you have class engraving
If all you care about is 5x3 you can run any combination
most +5 class accs are cheap af anyway cuz ppl want +3
Relic class accessories are not too expensive sometimes
keep playing you will find it
Also meta combos are stupid expensive
aight
is vern after arthetine?
os sushire
iirc vern is before sushire
weird flex
OH NICE only 1 continent away

your mother
np
watch this after you reach north vern if you still have question about awakening skill + last skillunlock
You may be wondering why you've not received your Lost Ark awakening skills when you've hit level 50. Well, the thing is, you don't automatically get your Awakening skills when you hit level 50 in Lost Ark! So, how do you get your Lost Ark Awakening Skills? Well, this guide explains what you need to do to unlock the Awakening Skill Quest in Los...
13th of april 2026
not now because u can't do anything about it until you finish north vern
so... what is a card run?
run for RNG Jesus hope a card pack drop % and bid on it with gold
running a raid without earning gold to hope for a card
north vern is also where you get dailies right? first power pass
ahh! that makes sense
thank you
and chaos dungeon, guardians, whole goodies
tysm ^^
whole slavery*
oh nice i can get my friends to carry me through guardians xd
and everything else

you have friends in lost ark? wow
Palworld is slavery
there rats, the second i reinstalled and it said
lunarr is playing lost ark
I havent touched that game yet
my pals have revolted like Django Unchained, i can't control them now D:
its aight
Kill em
really looking forwatd to the future of it though
I’ll play it when its $5
Impulse Purchase 
Good idea 💀
Same
sry for the barrage of questions recently but i need some advice on how to progress my account with limited time... i don't think i can manage more than 1/2 alts tbh due to irl restrictions. do i set them up for lopang and do nothing else? do i wait for an express and focus on the paladin? do i just hone my main? idk how much benefit alts can bring
minimal log alt in for una's 3 times daily until weekly max imo
You don't "need" alts, they are there if you want to play them but ultimately even if you're on limited time to be able to play you can just push the one Main, yes it takes longer but alts are also an investment and that investment increases the higher in ilvl they go. If you want to at least do something yeah, you can just Lopang run them.
whats the time investment like for 3 characters
i have my support im playing mainly atm bc i get into raids easier but im the kind of person who needs to play 3 or 4 different classes else i;ll get bored
already hitting my limit playing my artist so much
im hopiong to use the express stuff when breaker comes out to skip one of them ahead
thanks for answering
uhh i definitely want to play other classes but it seems like a HUGE time investment
and im already behind tbh
STOP FOMO
Welcome aboard, matey! Lost Ark is a full-time job
What ilvl is your main?
1490, doing brel this week
its not, its whatever u wanna put
you were behind the moment you didnt play the first minutes on server opening
stop with that absurd mentality and have fun
You'll be 1510 in a week and a half, 1540 by the end of the rest of that week, and 1580 probably in a month or less especially if using the Express and Path/Road events coming with Breaker in March.
yeah, whatever you want to put in.
im saying that mostly bc the content i have fun with has no people 😭 horizontal 😭
if honing is nice that is-
does that count help from my busted ass alts or just solo main
my damage drastically reduced on Punika storyline
paladin is not a good dps ig
Just main
paladin isnt a dps
real lol thank you for opening my eyes
Well, paladin is a support so kind of expected.
pally is tank support no?
The idea of "You need alts to progress properly" is false and always has been false
As they said, Paladin is not a DPS. It is purely Support, as are all of the Support classes (Paladin, Bard, Artist)
why was it so widespread
i played when level 12s were farming the yudia boss for some reason
No.
There are no tanks in this game 
any time i heard ppl talk about progress in lost ark it was always in regards to alts
founders spreading stuff alts are necessary
Because people spread false, misunderstood information
that's what kept me from coming back for so long which sounds dumb now
And also FOMO
but i genuinely thought this
its all bait
so what is pally? just broad category falls in support
if no "tank" who's pulling aggro?
It’s random
there's only 2 role in the wholegame, support or dps
They saw people, streamers, ahead and were like "HAVE TO FOMO PUSH TO KEEP UP WITH ZEALS" who swipes a lot, which is fine...but people mistakenly get this idea that they need to somehow match that.
There is no holding aggro
There is no real "threat" or "aggro" system in the game
Its just boss look at who they look at
hmmm okay
there r 1 or 2 class with taunt
if i wanna try a new class i'll probably just wait for a powerpass then? otherwise how much time does it take from 1370 to 1415 bc i completely forgot
Only very specific times does the Destroyer or Gunlancer taunt come into play and it functions more like a CC than aggro pulling
one thing thats always bugged me, it seems to take so long to make progress, i feel like if im not laser focused on something ill come back to it down the line and be like "oh shit why didnt i farm this earlier"
like card sets and runes
if u have resources less than a day
can't card me rushed unless u whale-a-lot
I've never once been concerned about my progress on Lost Ark and I really only play one character, I don't push anything else. Were I not taking breaks I'd be 1630 by now probably, but I play other games as well.
also when you started playing game i.e. people start day 1 vs people start 1 year later card progress will be drastically different
People routinely try to shortcut it or do too much too quickly or want it all in a week.
Bad mentality to have.
does the Elgacia powerpass costs less the further ahead in the story a character is
Yeah
if i knowledge trasnfer a characfter does that wokr
You still need to hit ilvl thresholds for each KT
kt?
Knowledge Transfer
oh so doing that do a fresh character wouldnt actually save me crystals bc they wouldnt have the ilvls?
Tjere
there's no Elgacia Pass? but KT right?
there is elgacia pass
i wanted to kt my Slayer then buy the elgacia pass
No. KT is not ilvl boosts, it is simply story skips. The only KT that gives gear is the North Vern one, 500 ilvl gear. The rest after that just skip the story on the continent.
You have to hone between each KT continent depending on its ilvl reqs
Yes
And a Super Mokoko Express, and we know Road to Thaemine but also potentially Path of the Breaker.
do we know to which continent the powerpass will be
maybe ill do the elgacia pass on someone else, i have some 1250 ilvls
or just speculate
Nope.
ooh maybe an elgacia pass since they added that recently
We can assume at minimum still 1415, but could be the 1460 one. We won't know until the patch notes or the day of the update.
I should keep dreaming
why not just boost everyone to minimum ilvl to start raiding
i came back a few weeks ago and my 300+ chars were all 1250
That is literally what the free Power Pass is.
you have 300 characters? wow
thats literally only 1 character
This happened because T1 and T2 got merged into just T2 whereas T1 became the 10-50 journey
300+ characters? how many account is that? sus
Yeah. Which gives established players an alt or new players a main.
300ilvl u know what i mean
Remember, we established that alts aren't necessary
wait why did my 400 ilvl char not get boosted then sob
Im trolling 😭
did u login on it?
so my char had 63k max hp throughout the whole 3 weeks i remember playing it. i was doing 2 chaos dungeons for the weekly to get coins to exchange for gold. all of a sudden my char has max 50k hp. why is that?
it doesn't boost anything, just shorten the T1/T2 progression
no... I might be stupid
food? pet?
Broken gear?
Memory can't be serve as evidence...I mean, could be having broken equipment, forgot equip pet, you had feast on
No Ability Stone equipped?
Out of ilvl range gears, like 14xx but wearing 1100 accessories
oh yes... it must definitely be that then. haven't done it before.
Can't tell if sarcasm...
not sarcastic. i'm a new player.
so damaged armor can cause hp max amount decrease?
iirc playing intentionally til broken gears for achievement
not damaged, broken
broken gear u lose stats as any other game that has gear like that
you should have HUD notif on right side iirc, of equipment which need to be repair - red is broken, yellow/orange need fix soon
interesting. i like this game.
does it require any ingredients to repair gear or is just paying with gold, silver or some currency used?
silver
silver that's all at repair npc
ok.
thank goodness. i don't want to go around and find ingredients etc to repair gear.
Vindictus had that - for end game gear
a different game, also have break your weapon when fail hone
when I was playing lotro I think you straight up had to get new gear
do we ever reach "find 7/7 arks" or are we stuck at 6/7 forever? just curious.
yes
yes what?
7
But you cna just repair with silver?
didn't someone just posted a quest log earlier that shows finding 7 arks
i'm almost reaching ilvl 1460 to go to elgacia.
Repair cost gold + silver (depends honed level) in Vindictus and boss fragments
Oh rip
Breaking means - you lost it forever
you have to refarm for a copy of that or else gg quit time
Oh okay so exactly liek bdo
Just weapon?
because some1 didnt know about y there stat drop
i can't respond to question?
they given a example from another game
and i specifically typed Vindictus to avoid confusion
But in regards to fixing durability is that always just silver?
you caused confusion by mentioneing gear disappearnce
Ah thank god
That's nice
As annoying as I hear the honing is like i said earlier it can't be worse than bdos and I've poofed so many things in that it's unreal
christ another, i said it with VINDICTUS
The honing system is better and worse in a way compared to bdo. Bdo may be more punishing, but it’s one and done since you can transfer gear to other alts.
Lost ark makes you gear and hone each alt separately.
they didnt, the other person wasnt here in the start of the convo
For anyone who care, gear only breaks and remain broken until you repair with silver at repair npc in LOSTARK, you do not lose gear what so ever unless you accidentally destroy it by drag it out of your inventory
happy @paper walrus
yes
you can destroy gear by dragging it out???
Yeah
Dragging it into open space on your screen from your inventory or character window
I know a few people who’ve rage quit this way only to come back months later and have support tell them tough shit.
But there is typically no reason to do either of those things, even accidentally tbh

@lavish vine repaired gear and all is good 👍
you will get a confirmation to destroy screen, unless you accidentally drag it out and didn't read then press yes
Which i did about a week ago threw gears i needed to hone
omg im sorry
hello, returning player as I quit right after vykas release, I've heard that a new pass that will help to 1600 will come out in march, would it better to start playing then or is there a huge benefit to start playing again now? Want to main souleater if that matters!
wait till event
is tooki island possible with only one person
I'm trying to find the purple cooking item in Yorns Cradle, for the recipe. The clue says something about a cauldron but I can't find anything like that xD Any tips? 🙂
Lost Ark Map
you might run out of time doing objective, maybe not, never try 1 man it b4
tooki king took tons of time even with 30 players
im sorry to disappoint you you're gonna have to wait for the island merge
sadge
thats in march right?
i think so yes
o well
Hold on, no no, that isn't confirmed.
Server merges will be in March
That is not the same as the cross server matchmaking for island stuff
oh im sorry
o wait
I must've misunderstood
im confused
what is this
Something we learned about from LOA ON not too long ago
Cross server matchmaking for things like islands
wait so march brings server merges + region merges?
No, only server.
March brings Server merges, region is later and no defined date other than Summer
Region merges are sometime this summer soon™️
ooh
ahh
how long does it take to go from 1490 to 1600 in general? I just came back and was a degen when vykas hardmode came out but wasnt sure how long this grind was going to be to get to Akkan hardmode
Probably a few months to be honest
You don't need to rush it
thats not too bad
This content will all be relevant for a long time
ahh ok
People literally still run Valtan
They are, either with alts or card runs or otherwise
Yeah, people still run them on alts or for cards
ok cool, brelshaza was one i always wanted to do but burned myself out
So unsurprisingly my assertions to people back earlier in the game about content remaining relevant for a long period of time and there is literally no reason to FOMO about day 1 or week 1 or anything like that were completely accurate
ya lol i remember hearing that
then it just like took me over and befor ei knew it i had 10 characters running chaos every 3 days
while the discussion is still relevant, is the honing system above 1600 designed to be the end? 1% or 3% success rates etc, will that be everyone's situation in a few months or will honing essentially stop
like, I can't imagine them bringing out 1700 content for example
Almost guaranteed pity every piece lul, imagine
Honing has always had a stop point depending on when in the game we were. 1490 was literally the absolutely end point way back when because we had nothing that went higher.
1615 was one such point, then it moved up, and it will likely continue to move up its just they aren't making huge ilvl leaps for reqs for upcoming content at the moment
Echidna is only 1630 and we don't have that yet
ooh so maybe sidereal rarity will be a new starting point?
It all gets easier as time goes on but then new "high points" for progression also appear anyway
No.
oh
Sidereal weapons are whale bait, nothing to do with normal progression
They'll either have to squish the gear curve again with a new armor set or reset for t4. Or abandon honing entirely and move to a completely separate vertical progression
ah I see I just saw the rarity as an option in the auction house and thought it was smth important
Nope, Sidereal weapons are basically just for whale flexing and nothing more
There is already a new separate honing system with echinda
^
But to reach new content tiers is what im referring to
Advanced Honing is that, yes
Rather than random chance to succeed on hone its random progress generated to fill a bar
Honestly at this point I don't think they are going to do a T4
They had already expressed hesitance a while ago of even doing it or how they could even execute it without a hard reset like prior ones
Quick q: I'm at 1415 purple and going for 1415 yellow from Valtan. If I upgrade my purples above 1415 will that transfer over?
I’d suggest honing to 1445 to do valtan hard mode. Almost no one does normal.
But yes, you can safely home and transfer purple gear up to 1490.
Refer to the pinned guides for gear progression.
no longer require leg
I've actually done normal twice now. It's an... experience :D

Blind is fun, people don't really have high expectations in Matching
Oh god what?
I wouldn't have gone blind for hard mode
Oh...don't matchmake
Anyone know what will happen to cards when servers merge? Searched online and the patch notes for the previous merge say that it's added together, but some other sources say that it only takes the highest level card
Even normal mode for all other raids will have wipe mechanics that are much more punishing than valtan.
all we can do is wait for info
Yeah don't make what you're doing a habit going forward @strange depot
Won't workout
Damn, alright
u'll endup with no support
Valtan likely gets matchmade by a lot of people purely out of not knowing any better
NM that is
I don't need a support to survive Valtan NM, come on guys
I went in blind, not literally blindfolded
I have functioning brains
we wont know how ya brain
ye but still ppl have to explain everything to you
as opposed to you having just watched avid
Not the point being made
and would shorten the explaination
if there is still stuff you dont exactly get
also pubs dont like to read chat

Just going forward with Legion Raids after this point matchmaking really won't be a thing you can utilize for things like Vykas or Clown or Brel, also you will need to learn them from checking videos of the mechanics and doing Learning groups. Unless you have a static that is willing to go in blind with you.
But also yeah, that ^
Maybe I do that on a lopang. Sounds fun
do it!!
Is anyone in NAE kharmine
ask in nae channel
what's difference between #1051285338569580564 and #992731429115002943
one is for raid, one is for static
One is a one time raid group while the other is a raid static.
same group u always go with
the upcoming male striker class is good? i started because of him i hope he is good
every class can complete any content
but some of them may be further than other
If you’re asking about breaker, then yeah. He’s good.
would game give a powerpass for him tho ?
game stated every class release come with powerpass
is it true that parties in late late game demand 30-awakening sidereal sets to get you in lol
yeah, kinda 
no, its only mega ugly troll gatekeepers
what does this do
i created paladin for that, i hope they wont demand too much from me 
upgrade boat
thats a support role
yeah i mean that, as a support they wont demand too much right?
does 15% holy damage really make that much of a difference lol
thanks
if they're weaker to it yes, its like another max engraving
oh wow
LoS cardset?
its 15% final damage, very huge
bonus 10% if boss is weak to holy as tits said
tits 
wait so holy damage isn't any classes' default? I'm kinda confused about who does holy and who doesn't
i always read his name as tits
whos tits
the smelly green color helper above us

help
skills may be non elemental or X element
some tripods can mak a skill do holy dmg
a card set that changes the element of your attacks will make ALL your attacks of that element, regardless of the skill's initial element
mm I see
and ^
are there situations where lostwind cliff is better than light of salvation in parties?
no
no
if the party damage bonus stacks- oh
i mean yes if LoS is like 0 awakening 
lol
los18+ is superior to all other damage bonuses (and reduces gatekeeping)
and ofc los30 is the goal
lostwind is for a sup
lostwind 12 awakening has 7% crit rate
it was used for a very long while on server opening
just 5 more years for me 🙏
but yes 30 awak is the endgame goal card set for supports
I still use it ... my los is 12
oh
who what where
Deep dive easy to get ?
relatively yes
Is it basically just watch a video on how to get them or do I just do stuff for card packs and pray for the right ones ? 💀
deep dive cards are from merchant
yes silver
And it is one merchant or multiple?
multiple
need atleast up to punika
Oh alright tyty
The merchants appear on a schedule but whether or not they have the cards is random
Oh time gate alright
You can check in game map for WM locations or use Lost Merchants https://lostmerchants.com/
website is community input
If you're already online you can zoom the map all the way out and see what each merchant has to offer
Especially easy if you flag notifications on the cards you want
Is DD30 more dps than LoS18 in Kayangel?
No
Again the point of LoS isn't just specifically the holy damage and any bosses weakness to it
Its just a general damage increase
there's no way to stagger the trixion boss dummy, right?
Don't think so, no

how much gold is valtan/vykas/clown hm now?
pins
There is a google doc in pinned messages
Thanks
what does this exactly mean
buffs or engravings
atk power from sources outside of main stat and weapon power
it's only 4/3 so probably not
okay ty
yeaa.. i was asking like what
literally everything else that gives ap 
not food buff
food gives main stats
oh alr
Raid Captain above
cursed doll
Cursed doll
Ah ty
Cursed Doll below
adrenaline is aboce
...adrenaline
nvm can't read iconography either
So iut of these, other than peacemaker which one is harder to get the book for ?
Or do you just get book selection chests?
Grudge is going to be the most expensive.
grudge is the most expensive
For books?
yes
So what's the best one to have as a book alongside pm?
are you reading gs guide?
its not written in guide
^^
I assume its minimal difference between right?
hit master crit accessories are cheap
yes but keenblunt books are pretty expensive too
only 100k, easy
tho all of them are pretty cheap getting either grudge or kbw would be best
I could buy a legendary pair of shoes.for that money xd
huh
Can you buy the books from Market or?
when legendary cost 100k?
yes
Skin
Oh alright ill just check market then ^^
i mean
grudge are 4k6 and keenblunt 2k5
Has anyone got a build planner site to use?
LostArk Todo Tool
i think hes not even lvl 50
this is the worst time to try the game out
49 90 percent there
no express pass gg
you still have to get to t3
yesh but till you get 1415, it will take a while
t3 doesnt start at 50
wait why are u asking these if you haven't finish to combat 50
Oh okay so I'm ages away from this still?
How am I gonna do this for the 15th heart
yes
Grudge would be smart in the longrun since it's a universal combat engraving with every dps class in the game. But if you don't have many sources of gold or many legendary selection books, it may be best to go with the others that are listed.
I thought like the game became playable at 50💀
no
wait for update

is it ocming soon?
It becomes playable when you are at legion-raid territory which is technically item level 1415 or higher.
we dont know
And would I get stronger gear by carrying on the story?
no
Thank god
Once you finish the 'main story', you have to hit certain item levels to progress through the rest of the story, to eventually get to tier 3.
Oh so more story anyway xd
Is "finish the story" North vara or whatever
Once you finish punika you will be parked for a bit until you are 1370 I believe, then you can do South Vern.
Or is finish the story the 7th ark 💀
Ah alright
youll be caught up to our current story when u get to a lil place called voldis

Finishing the "initial" story is getting to North Vern. Then after that you complete North Vern story, then Shushire, then Rohendel, then Yorn, then Feiton, etc.
You'll be level 50 by the time you get to North Vern
Thats when early endgame "begins"
What happened to rowen 💀
its optional
Its optional
Rowen is there and optional
That's where I wanna be heck yeah
Most people opt to not do it
North Vern isnt optional so get to it first
I believe once you finish north vern, you get 2 free powerpasses that allow you to boost another 2 fresh characters to level 50, which also auto-completes the story up to Shushire.
Oh nice
mhm
Yeah I heard about that I think
It's been a long time, I don't remember exactly. Last time I did that was Feb 2022 lol. But it should still be a thing.
I assume its a bad idea to use that on the character I reached it on anyway
I should use it on alt char right?
You wouldn't be able too because at that point you are already level 50.
Oh I see
It's designed to be used on alt characters.
Should I just use them the second i get it or?
you get a pass for the continent you already cleared, you cant use a pass for a continent you already cleared
Gives roster right?
Of course. It's a free powerpass.
It does not, just a fresh character to level 50 with story up to shushire complete and a set of Tier 1 gear.
I kinda had a brain fart there forgot 2 plus 2 is 4
Xd
Oh so does it not complete the sides for that char?
In addition, next month I believe we get a powerpass with the new Breaker class. which will bring a character up to 1415 item level.
It does.
Up to shushire.
The important side quests that is. Like second awakening for example.
since when it do sidequest? only story?
that's roster quest, purple
I thought sidequests gave roster exp 
Yeah, I view them as side quests as well. Since a lot of purple quests aren't really required.
powerpasses do all quests
It does. But it doesn't give you roster exp for boosting a character via powerpass.
Does it gives the roster exp tho?
No.
Oh no free roster
yesterday i was doing a side quest on Punika for my artist who i used Punika Pass before Yellow Quest
Will I be getting gear with engravings on it dropping though? Cuzco I'm dropping stones now
all quests give roster exp, matter of amount
The yellow side quests I believe, can still be done on characters that used a powerpass. I don't remember exactly because I've completed those quests over a year ago.
Accessories like necklace, earring, ring and ability stone give engravings on them. But you shouldn't worry about that too much until you are in Tier 3 content.
^ that's what i said, yellow quests don't get done, unless its related to world quest (blue, done in power pass)
So what are main ways of progressing gear power post north vern?
is anyone experiencing high ping ?
no
If its not from story
You do dailies like chaos dungeon & guardian, which give materials to hone your gear - which will then bring you into the next piece of content.
Will I drop gear worth honing?
Yes. You have to hone your gear to progress to the next phase of the story.
Since it's locked behind item level.
Ah necessary alright
When you complete shushire you should get a set of Tier 1 gear which you would use to hone.
Since Tier 1 & 2 got consolidated a few months ago, I don't know what item level you need to be at for Rohendel, but the game will tell you.
960 i think if its not changed, for Rohendel
Looks to be 635. Or at least that's the item level to enter the 1st chaos dungeon in Rohendel.
also islands, most of them needed ilvl250, and give mats too
or was that Yorn
rohandel is 635
So just hone the t1 gear as much as I can?
And that'll bring me upto o like 950?
Max
Not as much as you can. Just to get to 635 item level.
Ah aight ty
You will get this gear when either doing the chaos dungeon or completing shushire quest. This gear should then be honed up.
you have a guide quest "guide to rohandel" which tells you what ilvl you need to be
Qh tyty
960 is Feiton.
815 or so is yorn
yeah myb 805 yorn
when you finish a continent, youll get a guide quest to next
Looks like you don't get another set of gear when you do Yorn chaos dugeon. In the past you got 'tier 1' gear then tier 2, but tier 1 has been removed. So you can technically hone the tier 2 gear all the way up to 1100 (which may be +20 everything not sure), but you will still have to the story in order. Shushire > Rohendel > Yorn > Feiton > Punika & beyond.
Quick fyi: Side quests are cleared if you powerpassed, only if you Kted they are available, of course side quests for the next continents are there yet
but 1 guide quest is optional which is rowen
gear guide pin
So it's +15, not +20.
yeah full 15 is 1100
Consolidation makes it confusing, haven't done a fresh character since pre-launch.
veteran problems when early game changes

we have no idea how the fuck being a newbie is anymore
Makes it less confusing for new players though which is good.
and more confusing for us
hmm cant find the option to view anniversary on other class tho nvm found itis there a option to view different class on outfit at f4?
do i have to finish ivory tower at least once to be able to craft an elixir ?
yes
use market :p
what are some good card sets (books) to complete for the bonuses
demon dmg
that's it?
thats already a lot
there are many?
sort in card book to view
my boi thinking it takes days and a couple thousands exp
thus your reaction thus my reaction
do we have an exact date for the mokoko super express? Coming back and want to know when I should start playing
no
march X
just march
march 6, 13 or 20
what year arna
2036
star playing now
he can't decide so that's my suggestion lol
i dont understand why it would be better to start now tbh
can someone tell me how bussers deal with brel g3 red mech?
Don’t they either restart if it’s the first mech and then in the run, they skip it 
how they skip it?
Damage 
learn stuff
dps + supp
or just look at youtube
@lavish vine is there a good pass or event thats happening rn?
fuck bussing c:
no
No
i mean
what learn if they dont have a char
2nd anniversary
get used to interface,stronghold,lifeskills,read engraving,gem,stone,accessiories tut
if its first mech, they restart
if its after, they burst
usually 2man bus are 2 dps not dps+sup
The next progression events and free Power Pass we will see will be next month, in March, with Breaker release and also Road to Thaemine being moved into March instead of in April.
and 90% of those you cant do without a leveled char 
Not exactly sure his intention of asking known info can be look up from official source with an estimation and then decide if he want to comeback simply because there's pass or no pass\
well i just joined a free g3 buss just to see how they r dealing with it, been 3 tries but they never got red mech idk if red mech doesnt happen if there'r certain number dead
can't you play a game, for being a game?
its rng
you know that some people actually respect their time right?
and they dont want to waste time leveling from scratch without an event and instead jump into the fun stuff?
so otheres don't respect their time?
Can’t really even play the game like cause there’s gatekeep
tbh i dont find it fun leveling a char till vern, taking 20hrs for nothing
every game has gatekeep
They won’t have gold for accessories or gems at all so no point if you can’t even play
my fun is raiding and shit, not spamming G

im not even gonna bother answering by now
server
Do g4 brel tornados remove the debuff if you use timestop
Also are destroyed tiles regenerated when she does the palm slam before shandi
no
is this ait?
its low
yes? That's your Bonus vs Demons in Card Deck
but its a start
4%
ugh i can't even show mine no xp
i mean its fine, everyone starts at low
can someone help me set up engravings for my surge deathblade(1518.33)
as long as u dont awaken epic leg cards first, youre doing good
thoughts?
methinks you should get muted

Hey guys i have a question in regards to stronghold, do i just research stuff here?
Okay thanks alot im trying to understand strongholds lmao
its not really complicated
you research stuff and the menus you wanna use are Ctrl+1
life skill is not recommended on stronghold, it gives way way less compared to the overworld and its bound as well
dispatches nets you a bit of seals needed to buy collectibles and runes
pet ranch for cookies to buy some stuff, couple of skins there
and then crafting, you prob gonna craft a lot of orehas to hone
training camp is for alts
Okay i see, and do u recommend me researching honing stuff
do you play 1 char or more than 1
i have more than one char but im still fairly new so its limited what i do on the other one
i just do dailies on the other one for more tokens for event shop etc
honing stuff and exp stuff helps alts, main has to reach there to research it
at least i found a purpose for the card xp, i had like 3 mil and was confused 
cute number
makes sense okay, what do u recommend me to start researching ?
Like what category
okay ty
How o you designate gold earners? None of my chars have done any raids
when you log at reset, you have a window for it
if you didnt do it
just check/uncheck on the raid thing when you go in
theres a check for taking gold
lol people be wanting to quit dungeon on the first challenge abyssal one cause someone accidentally let an orb through 
sounds like a usual reset day allright
o that bitch
los
wat if DD is 30?
dd by not much
ok
but people will gatekeep u so stay with los18 
it seems LoS seem like good all rounder for most situations
LoS 18 should still be better than DD 30 if you have good weapon quality
pretty sure DD shares diminishing returns with wep quality
and/or a support with LWC30
true
ah okay my akkan wep is 98 so imma stick with LoS
that stat isnt actually as important as people make it seem when comparing the 2
Gate Kept 
oh yea. i forgot about gear set
thought it would be a bit lower than that
does the cash shop have different skins every week?
for this event yes
so in march all of the skins now will be gone and replced with new offerings right?
is it like a rotation or something or is it always new stuff
Rotates into new things, I believe this is the first, if not just one of the very few times, they have rotated older skins back into the shop
i see, thanks
ark pass incident
nice ty
is this sellable
Trying to beat caliligos for the firs time (new player). any advice on which grenade/bomb I shoudl bring into guardian raids?
destruction and pheromone
thanks!
any particular times i should use them?
uhh its difficult to explain but first pheromone is right at the start when thunder raining down everywhere
2nd pheromone is in the middle of the raid when he's charging up a huge circle aoe
oh pheromone is to keep him from running
ye ye
and destruction is during stagger bar? or after hes stunned?
and destruction... well when he does the mech that shows stagger bar -> then u have to counter and if done succesfully he'll fall down and a reticle will appear on its horn
thats when you use destruction
awesome. appreciate you!
np
Phero is pretty lenient, you can chuck it when he goes invincible and he’ll still come down
should i get legendary first !?
nope
no need for legendary
this item i get from chos and raids i paid 0 on this account
rc is fine choice
but you should prioritize stats over engravings
and use the market to buy your build, you rarely get the correct accessories from only drops alone
okay i got your point
i only have 41 pheon for now
you can currency exchange for bc with gold and use bc to buy pheons
why
or buy the lucky box from frog
yeah but alot of gold 😦
movement speed buffs count
i spent my all gold on this 1570
I see
rc scales from move speed
th honing man kick my asss
you get used to it dw
oh i know you ty for guid on youtube btw ❤️
no problem!

theres many spec builds that go raid captain
its not something only stuck on swift classes
hhow do u gear up a brand new character without express pass, you just knowledge transfer, hone, knowledge trasnfer hone, if i remember correctly. But when u do the first knowledge trasnfer do you buy the gear to enhance or do u do a chaos dungeon
cuz u dont wanna waste your chaos dungeon rn I dont think? cuz I think u need it later for something
I forgot
is there a time limit on when to claim gold after selling RC in the currency exchange? or can i let it sit there and claim it another time
just get purple gear from chaos dungeon, hone until you can do valtan and vykas and get relic
when is cd/hm 2 better than adren 2 for hit master classes?
for a 5x3+1 ye
you can let it still there but you still have he three day wait
pretty much never 
well dont take that at face value
its just that adren is so efficient is what i mean
compared to cd/hm
confirmed to let it sit there, im on vacation so i cant claim
ah ok, there were exceptions to gs needing to hit certain crit % so i was wondering other classes needing to fill that niche
well for gs, they either run pm 1 or adren 1
unless u have a adren 9/7 stone
either one, will have u change 1 acc
pm 1 is spec earring and adren 1 i think is either full crit or spec ring
yes thats sellable
+5 ether predator spec is always sellable
congrats
make sure to filter by quality
^
when u use the shortcut, it defaults to whatever qual ur piece is, ie. only 90 qual which there wont be alot of, if any
change to lower and then others pop up
Oh really well now I know
also check the same accesories sell history it will tell you how much you should price that precious
i mean db can use that
bootleg slayer can use that
is there anything i can be doing when my friend isnt doing anything, i dont want to be ahead of him in level
horizontal 
how do i start that at level 48
Press [N] to pull up the adventure tome. You wanna fill each area’s one out eventually, or at least a few of them.
You can do the vistas, hidden stories, and special mobs for each area you’ve visited.
whats the skill point cap rn?
or just focus on skill points first instead of adv tome
420
nice
Maxroll has guides for each area. Filling that out should give you some progress on the tome which’ll give you some decent roster experience too.
Or look up the skill point guide on Maxroll
do i need to go pass +15 for brel gear?
brel gear is the endgame?
damn that sounds expensive XD
it is
the current milestone is 1620 which costs this much on average 
jesus...

5 mil honor shards @_@
as a newer player, that will def be a problem
vets and day 1 ish players didnt really have a problem
im 1622 and i have this much shrds left still

i have more on my alts
like 2.7m on one of them
but anyway, dw about all this, lost ark is a marathon, not a sprint 
and im here thinking im stocking bands with my 400k honor shards lol

one step at a time 

Day, this is help channel and I need shards, plz can I have yours
