now that i think of it you may need to go do the early ones to unlock the current ones, yeah 😦
😄
The song with 2h cooldown teleports me to the blue triport r?
The one I'm attuned with
yep
do you have bifrosts, too?
I think at your stage in the game, you can only do level 1 of the Arkesia Tour, which is still nice, just letting you know
(there's 4 levels total)
Bifrosts?
alt+w
Uhm
Tylobic u sure bout this toiur
the third mission wants me to go to north vern
you do realize that if you'd logged in like 4 weeks ago you'd have bypassed everything ur doing right now?
they give away a free boost to 1580 ilevel every few months
this is true, it's weird we dont have one right now
Well I only joined back like 2 weeks ago
expect one this summer w/ the new class
its slightly more than north vern to complete it all
you can't do that yet
don't think youll be able to dock
yea as long as what ur doing rn is for fun then it's fine
but realize that in a few more weeks they'll release something that will instantly give away all the work u just did lol
so no dice
just go back to msq
So I went back to luterra for one stupid mokoko seed....
Aight lets see how much this costs me to go back

did you finish the tour step?
short short ad break
Well the second mission yes
at least you won't have to do that later 
but third one needs me to go north vern so not yet
you should still get unlocks, no?
no because they're on part 1.3 which requires north vern
south verns much later
shushire after
kurzan so far from south vern
Aight I have no clue where I'm at anymore
hell yeah
follow blue quest, you'll be alright
Going by info I have I'm nowhere
are you back in arth
shusire is like a off side piece of north vern since u have to return back there to speak to the queen
you are basically a billion hours behind everyone else 
ugh finally got a purple qual
destory, its useless
unless they've changed quals too like they have tripods it's all ive got 😄
I hope shishire is last thing before north vern
yeah
and north vern, at least the part you need to do to finish that part of the story, is short
oh, you
yes me
Does everyone get these rewards?
you'll hit 500 like 1 or 2 days after finishg north vern
actually 500 you get straight up from chaos right?
yep
so yeah, short speed bump
when you've earned them 😄
How do I get or how to I get to that screen?
top right by minimap, it has an icon
should be next to your minimap, if you haven't done them
Can you give example?
I don’t have that
It still does
Does that mean I missed the event
have you already finished a ton of horizontal?
then you have all the rwards from it
I’m a returning player after like year and a half
it's a permanent thing
I didn’t do it
but you've done a ton of islands, etc?
Yea before I came back to game
even if u done various content before, u still see it
All giant hearts, tons of side quests, mokokos etc
there may be some unlock you're missing, like a guide quest
🤦♂️
but its also pssible youv'e simply done everything it would unlock, so you aren't missing anything
I’m checking continents for side quests
are u in a weird location where such thing dont show up by minimap?
No im in kurzan
like it wont give you stuff you wont already have gotten from doing all the horizontal
its just a catchup
Oh
Gotcha
That’s probably the case
I used to do so much collection and quests
Question
Please
As a returning player
What rapports are the best to do now for rewards
honestly they give so many rapport items away its probably easy to bomb most of them
ya do sig, i had it
Yea I have ton of rapport gifts but who’s is the best to do first
besides ghin from the newest continent, whatever gives you the thing you need
Like important rewards I’m unaware of or missing
there is no wrong answer nor correct one
zeherade has some good stuff
i assume you dont need virtues
ren for adventure tome
nefer for adventure tome, i think that chest gemet has may be too?
returning player, dk what to do. I did kakul and brelshaza and am at 1505
caught up on story?
need to finish elgacia before you can do kayangel at 1540
wait doing valtan rn
i meannnn sure go for it but you're quite beyond that at this point 😄
dont I have to do it for gold?
ohhh
BUT the weeks over in a few days, so little harm done
then vykas > valtan atp?
at 1505 you can do brel kakul and vykas, yeah
but it should be pretty easy to get the hones to get to 1540 for kayangel
catching up on the story is the longer part 😄
it's been 3 years 
oranges and blues

i use the other UI, but choose whichever you like 🙂
ban soc
also my legendary engravings are gone?
the systems normalized to the T4 system now, so you select them from your UI w/o having nodes from gear
u never had leg engravings so they didnt take it away
what you have is the free 5x3
it got removed with the new system
so now u need to get books
likebefore

With Ark Passive soon to be available to everyone, I felt like it was a good time to have an overview video going over each tab in ark passive, as well as how to get points/manage each tab.
Thanks for watching guys and if you liked the video then leave a thumbs up or subscribe if you'd like! It's always much appreciated.
Watch me live on Twitc...
shadowhunter is still mid endgame tho?
yes
1810
RE is > than surge now?
I miss the t skill from here tho
But when I asked ppl said it doesnt matter
And doesnt fk up rotations
that will not fill 3 balls
that's just to prestack adren
stack adren doesn't imply not reach full orbs before using surge, does it?
no?
generally you pop a stimulant before fight
so you don't need to full build
Is that slayer?
it's shadowhunter
They also have a greatsword?
no
Is that a scythe??
shadowblade
scythe is souleater
I need to learn the classes at some point
what's the max level now?
70
70
real
also there's that super op skill with a cutscene
do I just do story normally to get that?
hyper awkening? thats far if ur new unless u mange to play during powerpass freebie
Which one should I pick?
im at 1512 rn
you're VERY far away then
You ain’t touching the hyper for a while
fuck it powerpass?
Oh yea XD. What about between these two?
10$ for the pp or play the game through
and we got mech
str/dex better
for mechs
😂
rbgwb is for vykas g1 (twins)
that red purple is for g2
120 if iirc
still remember this S**t
at least he can have a lot more pets for a lot more mechs
whats ur deepdive look like?

oh lawrd.
better start farming cards and keep ur selectors be very active with the world map for wandering merchants @icy scarab
r u a returner after merge? might have universal storage on card tab
LoS not good now? 😔
at 18 would be better u just have holy dmg only.
?merge
The servers have recently merged. This has moved around some items, but they are not lost.
Step 1. Reclaim your characters from the Universal Storage on the character select screen.
Step 2. Login and claim your cards on the Universal Storage tab on the card menu using ALT+C.
Step 3. Reclaim your roster storage by using ESC and opening Universal Storage.
Step 4. Re-equip your cards as they were reset and must be re-equipped.
You are all good to go!
For more information on the merge read this.
If you are looking for visuals than checkout the pins in #lost-ark-help.
u missed to much "get back into the game" stuff if u just recently got back
Will endgame dungeons also have hoverboard sections
lol no
No
end game dungeons are basically fight boss
maybe fight a few small mobs
fight boss
no quest in the tavern
are you even tracking the quest you want
if only there were more new players nowadays like u, content maybe rezzed...
I mean i understand the use of power pass
But do that after playing a char normally
anyone know how many shadow of karma i need to reach rank 3 for enlightment?
20 30 30?
This dungeon feels like an actual dungeon
where do i find merchants in stronghold now?
So there is a terror group who stole something very important? and we try to fight them
Market
what?
market area
im sorry im lost
are you in your sh
do i need to go to strnhold hold?
well, yes
market area
they are all there
and they got all the stuff the rotating old ones would have
permanently
no need to wait for a million years for a random chance at something
you probably need the merchant or to level up / research the merchant
oh
some guides are outdated due to all the recent changes
but yes thats the area
the top 2 have most of the stuff
yea i couldnt find it
Huh I got a ilvl 255 item
Wasn't the cap suppossed to be 250?
Till I do chaos dungeon?
How worth is this? Would I make profit if im buying this with crystal being 6.9k per 95?
250 is the minimum requirement for Chaos Dungeon
not the cap
Ahh
From what i have looked at this, it really depends on skill level / tool
how do u get the big cdr buff from skolakia
or if you stagger after a bozo person gets grabbed
true true
guys i got giga lucky, how much do you think its worth?
There is only one in market for 3.8 million
no recent price?
sadly not :c
ty, i cant believe i just hit that
When I click on the "Launch" button on the character selection screen, nothing happens. After about 5 minutes, I get a connection error, and the game closes. This only happens in Lost Ark.
how do I make gold as a a returning player @ilvl1250? something time efficient or easy to start with
?gold

ty, any for progression? im overwhelemed wherever I search
hone to 1415-1430 and do valtan/vykas solo to craft relic gear that you can then transfer your epic gear to relic gear
so just chaos dung for mats? where else can I get honor shards
chaos dungeon weekly purification thing in the Alt+Q menu
also event shops top-right of the screen
you should use the filters better
oh XD
I can't find any weekly purification in that list
it's in the chaos dungeon menu
first 3 chaos dungeons of the week give you extra shard and silver that you need to claim
almost 2 week no dispatch bloodclaw, anyone knows what is the rate to get it?
I got it after a week or so of dispatch
Just keep going
How hard is it to learn Brel HM? I am 1700 just never really bothered with it tbf.
is it more worth to hone 1585 alt or 1640 main
at what ilvl can i do knowledge transfer?
i wanted to kt an alt but i cant seem to use f2 to go stronghold
nvm i just had to do a bit of story quests mb
First 3 dispatch I got it
uh, don't put words in to my mouth, You made it sound like you refused to interact with the system at all, i.e. ZERO elixirs, and I told you that you'd be gatekept for that.
main
not that hard, theres only few differences between nm and hm (if you were doing nm ofc)
what ilvl should my main be before i pay attention to alt
prob 1660 1670
so you can start working on aegir gear and karma
personally, i was only raising alts with express
I have been doing normals every week since launch
but now they reduced the gold cost for 1580 to 1620 so its as u want
so once i hit aegir then try to push alt into t4
#raid-discussions message these are the differences, but i would still recommend to watch a video
guys, im reaching 1490 with epic gear. should i still farm for relic or save the resources to craft the ancient gear? and can i upgrade from epic to ancient or do i need to upgrade from relic?
you need relic gear before ancient gear
still require to have relic
oh no.. thanks!!
whats up guys just started playing the game this week and was wondering. Is it better to build your roster from the beginning or should I max out one character first and then make a second character?
uhhh, you can't "max out" one character easily
Make more chars when you want to play the game more. You cant max a char
what?? I thought u guys knew I did the Express event which gave me full 4/4 on everything and were saying that wasn't good enough?
I mean, you could potentially get gatekept for having luck elixirs like in that screenshot, BUT
my impression with you was, oh, the system takes gold from my relic tools? yeah, ilvls is all that matters, i'm not going to touch the system
so if you had 0 elixirs, yes, you'd be gatekept
you said it yourself, other systems don't matter, you're going to get to 1660, and they'll just see "oh a 1660 dps sorc" and accept
100% luck elixirs gets gatekept
I'm never spending gold on elixirs loll
I'll use the silver event ones I get, but spending gold on this stuff is insane 😂
I mean, hey, that's a step up from you just saying you refuse to interact with the system at all
I actually love the luck roll
omg
you want to stay reflux right ?
it's 2x the damage a free recast
you want critical set
I want whichever class has the biggest explosions and special effects
then its ignite
I have yet for it to work on my hyper awakening, but when it does
man is that gonna be epic!
check out how much time you wanna commit to the game daily/weekly, if you got some hours a day then you can sure, but remember, the higher the alt goes "to catch up with the main" the lower the main will be overall coz alts eat a LOT of resources, each alt takes time, gold, materials etc. Play alts if you wanna invest more time in the game AND you actually like the char itself
look, Enigma, i'll be real... people here, even if sarcastic at times, legit try to help, and a lot of the time, you either A) take their help and then get an ego acting like you're the best, B) take the help then question why they did it, in a ridiculing way, like with the Unas yesterday, or C) straight up ignore the help and then act like they're just trying to sabotage you or some shit.. you can do whatever you want, but we're juts trying to be real with you, people WILL gatekeep you for various things, and every time we try to tell you that, you're just like, nah, they won't
people are talking from experience, and usually, things like no elixirs, or luck elixirs, "will" have you gatekept
yet then you say dumb shit like we specifically said you had to have 5/5 or you get kicked from everything
that's a good way to get people to not want to help you
when you do shit like that
I must not be explaining my situation well enough then
@turbid flame I was told to wait until 1610 to use these but can I use them rn at 1600 chaos dungeon
because I don't have 0 elixirs and didn't think that's what u guys were referring to...
okay, stop trying to ragebait
when comments even close to that were initially made
you had ZERO
and didn't intend to work with the system at all
okay, whatever, that's still fairly bad, and will be gatekept for it
I just remember when you started cutting elixirs, and within the same day, said you gave up on them
I appreciate ur guys' help, but often u guys want me to achieve the highest of the highest stats as a new player...
middle highest on avg, large for gamba
bullshit
you're also not a "new" player
you're a returning player
and it's not v practical imo
we try to be realistic, if you want to do group raids, you need better elixirs than you have
unless you get carried by dbb again
So large for dat jumbo bar?
Do I risk da gamble
oh wow, I thought it was alway the highest to go for...
I don't
Are alts considered not worth now?
Middle it is
I've spent 30k tokens and never gotten it...
don't listen to the people who said you had to run 6 chars to be efficient at early stages of the game
you can use them whenever, they just get you extra rest bonus, the purple ones you wanna save for later, because doing more than 3 chaos dun a week is kinda not as good, chaos is mostly for shards, but they yeeted the shards from the normal loot pool
I mean, sure, you "aim" for min-max, eventually, but i'm talking pure gatekeep, 4/4s of actual good elixirs is good enough
I don't suggest people go for the absolute best unless they already have fairly good ones to begin with
What is the loss of only pushing them for the non gold honing, and also during boosts? And onlt bound mats
you still need Orehas which take gold to craft, unless you hone them over months and months with solo shop
up to 1580 is "mostly" free, aside from orehas
Yes
alts are a very very long time investment
You also get a lot of orehas from main quest right?
because the more new content the game throws, the better the alt needs to be geared to get accepted into stuff
not a lot
any reason why my lab lost a research slot?
Like, 1580 seems pretty easy and that is ~11k gold / week / alt
relatively easy, just takes time
For someone with his main at 1610-20 seems worth it
Ahh
a lot of
Crystal was carrying me
if you want alts go ahead
What a lot of means?
If ir is like 2-3 months then it is not ttoo bad
we dont recommend them because usually people want to have alts running the latest content, and that takes a fuckton of everything to achieve
like a month or so
If alts are so bad, why does @west valley have 12 alt Paladins??
only for 1580 stuck on akkan
5 weeks to get out of akkan and then honing starts costing gold
so honing them above 1580 will immediately become tragic
So 1 month to get 50k gold more per week. Seems worth to me
if you can afford it and want to indulge into the light (it was my choice)
you dont have to do this manner. i decided too
Enigma, when they're asking purely from a worth standpoint, or efficiency
alts aren't the way
yeah sure, due to all the nerfs they put not really long ago
back in the day everything costed gold to hone
ofc as the game gets older the old dead content needs to be nerfed
so it was not always the case
nowadays you can
alts are worth if you like to spend time in the game and like the class, if you want gold efficiency, alts arent worth at all
i did it for books engravings and gems
I have alts, and keep boosting alts to T4, just because I want to play the classes, idc if it takes quite a bit of time to make the gold back that I spent
but it's not efficient
I could be 1700 on my sharpshooter by now most likely, if I didn't keep spending 80k here and there to boost alts

You can always keep your alts to the point where gold is not needed to hone. Honing gets nerfed, gold income earlier raids get nerfed, gou up them again. How is this not efficient?
but I made that choice
hmm that's news to me
what's news?
because, again, people assume that for an alt to be worth it has to be around the latest raids
I was being trained by someone that felt alts are the key to success it seems
they dont think rationally most of the time
AND again
it was not always the case we have rn
i just have alts to play classes....
everything costed gold back then
Then they fail at basic finance knowledge
since I did this already dis this week can I keep rerun for rewardws to get the potions or no?
back at the launch of the game, people were like, OH, you HAVE to play 6 alts to be efficient
which isn't the case
human beings are bad at things and good at other things
read the red
you already did all 3 gates
can't go again
Ahh weekly count exceeded
and a lot of people are bad at things you thought they would be good at
I only read the gold part
back at the start you had to have alts if you wanted to keep up and funnel. but that was because ressources were way more limited
like, local meme, lost ark players cant read for shit
no
Just like probably at some point pushing you main to the last 10-20 ilevels is worth way less than pushing ylur alts
do most classes not care which engravings are on their stone?
you never needed to have alts
i never watch people that do that, i just played how i like, easy
as long as its engravings that u use, any is fine
I had two chars back then for the longest time and did just fine keeping at ilvl
some engravings are better than others but thats minmaxing
yeah sorry that's waht i mean
@vast oriole not having alts held me back hard at the start. if I had made alts from the get go I would have made argos in time
I only made alts when my two chars were parked at Argos, ready for Valtan
I always powerpass and express event my lowest ilevel character
lmao, argos
most classes wouldn't be inting by picking the 2 worst ones, if tahts' waht they have
Argos is the best 😦
the more you invest gold in your alts, the less you ahve gold for your main...
fomo alert
how is it so hard to understand
when every single item was extremely overinflated to the point they costed 20x more than they should?

thats a BAAAAAAAD example
i played 1class and made it to argos, was still busy
to be very fair about those alts at the start: you werent supposed to keep on honing them, just funnel into main
There was a guy who did some calculstions here on discord and it was like 200k gold to go from one ilevel to another (can't remember exactly, around the 1620 area). With 1 char it takes 8-10 weeks. With 6x 1580 that is down to 2-3 weeks.
the thing is
juicy express events lower that amount by a LOT
and guess what, we dont have any event right now
well yes one but at 1640
if you play 1 char and dont fomo and get an event and just hone slowly you will eventually catch up
I remember back in the day getting gatekept if you honed your gear evenly instead of having certain pieces higher than other ones, was dumb as fuck
at that lvl ur earning like 100k weekly on 1
events are what you can do for alts
i eman theres multiple people that play once char and theya re still at endgame
99% of people want to get TO THE FUCKING END END END GAME RIGHT NOW
its your choice
that's the issue
but honing alts isnt gold efficient
I just wanted to get to the last continent
everyone wants to have main at 5675402025 ilv and alts one lv under
It is if you hone only with bound stuff up to the point gold is not needed for honing
THAT is the issue
and I accidentally already got here lol
alts before 1580 AS OF TODAY are not the worse investment of all, it only takes the time you do your weeklies and dailies
ye and i was talking in beginning of the game when everything costed gold
thats not even the final continent, theres more to come
the more we say "yes you need alts go make them nownow need 6 or you will be stuck forever" the worse it gets
and no it snot efficient
betetr to focus on main unless you want to play 10 classes that u love
people fomo, they want to get everything done, "Oh if i hone an alt a bit more i get a bit more gold weekly"
"Oh if i reach here... Oh if i...."
fomo kicks in, people get tired, they burn up, they leave, "Man this game sucks its a fucking 2nd job"
Do I play a game to play it 3 hours per week?
you think i will ever repay the gold investment for them? nop.
do the side content
most people here have seen WAY too many people fall off on that hole
just gotta do months of weekly raids, ez
alts arent gold efficient
they are efficient if youw ant to play the game more
thats it
thats our point since earlier
wanna make alts? in this day and age you can up to a certain ilv without much issues
Ofc they arent if you want to hone them to main ilevel
wth... why do you have so many artists??
they will take more time to take care of things, but yes they will help your main
Hi y'all, im a returning player and I got a 1610 scrapper. Would it be better to just stay at 1610 and wait for a coming hyper express? or should I try to hone to 1640 so I can take advantage of the road to act 3 event?
because i play only supports
fuck paladin and bard pissed me off
you're not even making alts to try out other classes 😂
THATS THE FUCKING POINT, people REALLY think they have to after a while
If you enjoy the class, and want to do more than a few raids a week, making a second of the class works
we have no idea when the next event will come AND we just got a gold/mat nerf to hone to 1620
highly recommend to just get to 1620 and try to grab the current event for 1640, very juiced
aight thank you 
you only need to hone to 1620. then you can get gear to 1640
Also it is pretty easy to calculate which one gives you more gold return '5 ilevel on main for 1M gold for 0 gold per week more or 200k gold for alt for 10k gold per week more'
any further questions feel free to ask, theres a lot of info pinned here
tyty 
Like, you can't convince me that tapping into 0.5% chance last upgrade on a weapon 20k gold per tap that you dont event need is more efficient than honing an alt
its at some point not efficient to hone main anymore...
where's the merchant to exchange these for next tier?
there isn't one
if youre at 0.5% you over honed
these mfs
youc an check my messages, i said few times to hone main to 1660 or 1670 and then can go alts adventure
or youre just a whale that doesnt care
Then alts become very good gold investments
other games dont even have such system, ur lucky theres pieces of it
Solars / Breaths aren't countered in the tier up anyway, for T3->4
so good odds they wouldn't for T2 either
personally i dont raid on my 1640s because its useless, you get gatekept and spend horus in pf
but T2 vendor doesn't exist like thta
One clear example is how I was 1580 before Akkan release. Then it made no sense anymore to hone main, because I knew I will be able to transfer and reset chance
make sure you get 5/5 elixirs and full transcendence
i have them since ages ago
_< I never said go 5/5 elixirs, full trans yes tho
yeah but hes being a dumbass
nobody gatekeep 5/5 elixirs
I mean, that's always the case, 50% of what he does is ragebaiting 
as long as u have 40 of your set, youre good
I have that... gari says not good enough
its not enough because its luck set
LUCK SET ISNT YOUR SET
its a dogshit elixir set
why do you think it's an investment to work on your elixirs?
got one 4/4
well maybe someone should write a guide on it
you also want this on your shoulder
because the system sucks currently
elixirs are fairly simple, just rng
there is guide.
yea a bad guide that says nothing about which buttons to press
its called using your logic
I have that
5/5 would be good
no thats fine
Even spending all the time I did to get taht
I'm still at 0% progress to a 5/5
there's no pitty system, incidental advancement here
that 4/4 becomes garbage if I get a 5/5
v sad
anyways, I will figure it out eventually

at least the person that was helping me cut
gave me the advice to save my reroll till the end
that was a good tip
need to accumulate more of those and then 5/5 will be possible
or, you know, you could try for 4/4 with GOOD elixirs
instead of being a troll and saying that people told you that you have to have 5/5 or else

Get lucky. Its not that bad
I already have, they want me to swap for crit
nothing makes me happier in this game, than when I press my skill and it doesn't go on cooldown...
then be happy being gatekept for bad elixirs I guess

like, people try to help you, and your response is wel, I like this better
okay, that's fine
but don't come crying if you try to actually do group raids
Skill issue
and get gatekept
sure, luck set has double procs, but they don't happen all that often, you'd get far more damage from getting every skill to do a lot more damage
there is something about gatekeeping that you have to realize: your option could be 20% better and people still wouldnt take you
Luck set is unplayable, gatekept from everything
I think I'm just going to try and get chatgpt to run statistical analysis for me for each roll
may have better luck that way
I mean, his logic yesterday was that he'll just hone to 1660, and then be insta accepts basically
but nowadays, 1660 is the minimum to get accepted regardless

Just slowly read the tiles before spamming
1660 is just "maybe i'll look further"
You need 5/3
1660 is my end goal for this game
who's really going to take the time to pull out a magnifying glass and inspect my character profile and build?
They'll see 1660 sorc DPS and be like 👍
I'll have reached my peak once I get there ideally before July 23rd
The thing is
if you DO want to do party raids, instead of solo
you will need to improve your character
and people try to tell you that
No books no gems to pl title insta decline
and you just twist words, and troll, and just don't listen to shit

it's getting fucking annoying, honestly
if you don't want to do any raids but solo, then who cares, do whatever
but you seemed to want to do them, at some point
I have card books and gems
uh...
Uuuh I don’t think you understand
LoS 24
hi, can carry my 1640 rats pls? will be best fwiend 
Insta ban
fuk
I’m doing my job
Gatekeep more
Yall take too many rats
It’s becoming popular behavior
That EU servers, NA East people have been much more accepting
Keep that kr culture out of this western household
EU is accepting, I’m just a dick
take it from someone that play on NA-e.... your current character would be gatekept super hard
Let him find out we tried to tell him.
On a serious note, fix your elixir it should be piss easy to fix 40 set
Otherwise I honestly wouldn’t take you to even duo log
Let alone regular content
I've tried 15 times, got one 4/4 elixir
low roster level, luck elixirs, stagger on two pieces, t3 garbage accessories, purple hit master + mp efficiency (uwu could be wrong)
He is a achievement Andy
all of those could get you gatekept
Watch a guide
He ain’t listening
I've watched every one of them
so at +19 normal honing its better to do 20 to 30 Advanced honing
then when is it better to do 30 to 40 advanced honing?
Are you 1700
1710
If that is cheaper lol ong
oki doks
im thinking of just doing weapon to 40 AH
and armors whatever gets me to 1720
kk
Don’t cheap out on main
Skipping AH on my alts in t3
Bit me in the ass
And others
So hard
Finish your AH
1.5 isn’t that bad
You can barely do 1 piece a week
ok guys serious question, here's the background info:
- Currently at ilvl 1640 with the goal of getting to 1660 by July 23rd
- I'm a casual returning player and I don't like spending lots of gold honing
Should I open these T4 support chests and fully juice 1640 pulls or save for honing 1650-1660?
kk tyty
Serious answer. Dont hone until you fix your chars build
Ilvl is useless
Fix your char first
sigh...
I’m being serious
But regardless, my goal is to get to ilevel 1660
My 1620 prolly does more dps than you at 1660
that's why I gave that background info
The only thing 1660 gives you is group raids and your build is FAR from acceptable
But that is pointless
Do that once you finish the prior progression systems
I just want this chest:
And you will get it.
Once i get that, then I can relax
do you care about raiding at all, or just going to stick to solo modes?
But there's no point in being 1660 if transcedence and elixirs are not complete.
point is to get the 1660 chest/reward
Reward is useless to you rn
That chest is not going away until what, middle of next month?
You have plenty of time.
It does
Nah it's from the UI
ahh
Not the inventory one
It will go away when the event ends.
I have been enjoying 2 things currently:
Solo raiding (annihilating thaemine with ease)
Duo raiding with DBB (exterminating Behemoth with ease)
well, I wouldn't count on DBB to pity bus you every week
so
you'll need to either just do solo modes
or work on improving your character
also, his words, not mine a pity run, it was a way of means to show him growth and to celebrate his stubborn butt to progress.
It will go away 07/23
That's why I said in the background goal deadline is July 23rd
You should have plenty of time to complete transcedence, get the right elixir set and get to 1660.
Bro has a full month
why is there all this talk
and 0 answering of my actual question?? loll...
Maybe if everyone is saying don’t hone like an idiot
You take it as an objectively correct answer

I can't get to 1660 not honing...
and you won't get to play the game by just spam clicking hone
The answer is to save it of course. People typically juice when they are 1 hone away on that specific item, to the next ilvl breakpoint.
I mean, it also takes gold to hone, and you don't want to spend your unbound gold
I have 16k gold available atm to hone with
I believe 1660 is +15 right?
so that's why I'm thinking to fully juice, 1640 to 1645
+14
Right. So you must be at +10 on every piece.
The odds of honing +10 to +11, etc are not that low.
I would save it when you are trying to go from +13 to +14
Since +14 is the next ilvl breakpoint for you.
my odds go up 2x by fully juicing tho
And will cost the most gold.
Yeah if you had a infinite supply of those juicing mats I'd agree with you. But you don't.
And you'll need a ton of them for advanced honing in the future.
It's not ideal to just waste them on a 10% default honing chance.
The books alone are enough to get you to 1660. They give a lot through that event.
But if you are going to juice, do it when you are +13, getting to +14.
is this showing the mats to get from 1640 to 1660?
no
That’s worst case scenario
that's advanced honing
And adv hone
That is not accurate for you since it is advanced honing.
ah ok
wth it's even more expensive lol
You are using worst case scenario
turns out 20 ilvls is more expensive than 4 ilvls
This is the 'average cost' with the express event.
But again, books are not taken into consideration here
Which greatly reduces the cost.
can you plz show the above section too?
is there a way to add in books to the calc?
Yes
with books
Luck is not taken into consideration either. Not a variable that can be considered. I usually don't look at this tool since I don't believe it's an accurate representation.
Books will greatly help you out though. And most people would tell you to use that material box when getting the next ilvl breakpoint.
It’s either at full pity and its is wrong, or avg that’s 50% of all taps
Also inaccurate
My 1640 to 1660 with event took me less than 100k
Again, it varies per luck
Yeah. I don't bat an eye on the average since I am usually below it. I usually hone when I have a few hundred thousand gold and a decent amount of bound materials. Whatever you do, don't use that box until you are at the point of honing from 13 to 14.
ok so u guys are expecting me to just generate 100k gold within a month at 1640?
ok so actually may be doable
If you want to hone to 1660, be my guest. But don't think you will be accepted into something like Aegir, or random pug lobbies by yourself if Transcedence and Elixirs are not completed.
Raids + una + life skill at t4 when prices are sky high
Yeah, I wouldn't expect solo mode to generate the same amount of gold as Aegir HM lol.
You can make 100k in a week
its a very safe solo way to get it. cant argue against that safe income
Lol
But other gold generation is not taken into consideration.
Unas, Life Skilling, etc.
how is una's generating me gold?
true that 
you get paragon tokens weekly that you can exchange for gold
Since you probably don't have a bunch of characters do the Chaos Dungeon & Cube Weekly Quests.
yea I have 5 characters
Then this is passive gold income for you.
If you are afraid that you won't be able to complete Transcedence, Elixirs and hit 1660 by 07/23, then hone to 1660 first.
Like I said though, you won't be accepted into parties until prior systems are completed.
that's exactly what I'm concerned about lol
I have one other character that can do Kayangel for some extra gold too
Yeah I'll leave that to you, Death.
ana and dbb

idk i hvae a diverse roster
I would work on those characters on the side via solo mode shop. Won't cost you a dime until 1580+. For any alt you care about that is.
yea that's what I do
buy out the solo orehas each week
and nothing wrong with having 214 artists
free money
solo shop only works after 1415
some people just like playing that class
no it works on my lower characters too
wait a second...
It's like eating the same meal every day
I do that too
some people enjoy that... stop telling others what they can/can't do
I keep things simple.
I like eating the same meal every day
Not indefinitely...
Never really enjoyed the other support classes & I only like supporting.
i also have others
1668 you mean
Still not full 1700 smh
it some where
nah, solo shop is at 1415
I have to keep 1 character below 1700. I have no choice.
For the 1670, it's being replaced with Female Paladin.
Can't really make a raid guide if all the footage is hard mode only kekw.
But the 1670 is being replaced.
No point in honing it.
You do guides? 
Ya
oh wow, do you need that mat before 1415?
yes
yes
1340
Yeah it's silly.
But you only have one character below that threshold.
The rest can buy it.
hopefully they'll patch that soon
I'm not spending gold on 1340 characters lol
Then don't. Wait for future powerpass/express events.
That's the way to save the most gold.
wouldn't count on them aptching that, been that way for a while
just use una gold + stronghold mats
They'll likely do another item level squish sometime in the future.
There used to be an Oreha below the 'blue one'.
Forgot what it is called, but it's no longer in the game.
Yeah.
I have piles of these...
It was used up to 1370 back in the day I believe.
you should scrap them, then
dismantle them
so according to the calculator
avg scenario is that I save 36.6k gold fully juicing vs 0 breath from +10 to +14
do you have infinite to use though
Sure, but then you have no juice left.
And you need to advance hone once you are 1660 I think
in terms of saving the most gold.
From 1-10.
oh now I need to calculate how many breath mats I currently have
good point!
Yeah you likely don't have nearly enough juice to use it on every tap.
Like I said, it's best to use from 13 to 14.
With the boxes/books they provide every 5 item levels.
You will be just fine going from 10 to 14.
Every one of these boxes provides more books and materials.
If your sole focus is 1660, you will easily get there before the event ends.
I recall it being very easy.
took me 3 years to get to my first 90k gold
and u guys are suggesting that I get the next 100k in 1 month lol
I mean, you could spend your unbound gold
the achievements not going to just disappear
Their sole focus is steam achievements. THey have 80k unbound gold but they want it for stuff like relic tools for achievments
Every one of those boxes shown above gives 10-20k gold. So every 5 item levels you get, you get extra gold and extra materials.
Oh lord...
You can’t get 100% on steam….
Trust me. We've been over it a lot
Even if you had 1b gold
You're going to make this very difficult for yourself if you are only willing to spend bound gold.
You just can’t..
2 more days for enlighten pot bloodclaw 
a lot of achievements are
