where can I get basic tools for trade skill?
Trade Nero
Merchant
Maybe general
Merchant
You should green tool in quest
Guide tab
to get flat item lvl is better to advance hone or normal one?
Hone in this order
Are all the nerfs implemented to the raid now or is there another round coming this wednesday
We have the nerfs
There's another nerf coming this reset along with the last part of the frontier system
Lifeskill pots are worth buying on f4 ?
how to acquire this mount?
Was the mount that drops in the mooko area
Hi guys, Can I claim a guild as a member? The leader hasn't been online for a month and it's just me and him.
The guild leadership will go to another member on the guild after a period of time has passed, be patient if it doesn't happen then they might be going online while invis
@spring spruce Oh ok ty mate
can you really solo valtan with just 1415 gear level? just doesnt feel like i got the dps, on neither aeromancer or sorceress
yes its possible, and should be very easy if you got your build setup correctly
players in guide videos seem to have way more gear level
needs more training
what about with sorceress? she's casting for a long time, and the boss seems to just keep attacking back to back
Skill issues.
yeah thanks buddy i just started the game
try reflux, its 100x easier, everything is instant cast and very fast paced and you got extra blinks etc.. casting builds and igniter is slow af.
If you're struggling, use Reflux build.
thank you! that's helpful
But every build, every class can do it.
oh yea absolutely every class can do it, others just do it for basicly free while others you might actually have to put in some effort... like igniter, you really need to know when you can start casting your shit, and you need to know when to burst etc.. reflux is just constant spam spells with no care in the world.
The only spell that you should ever be casting for a long time on Igniter is first Doomsday.
Everything else should be instant or near instant.
yeah that makes sense then, i started with igniter but i'll give reflux a try then
Watch a video if you want to continue pursuing Igniter.
what about support though? like artists? i read there's gonna be a dps patch soon, but for now it should still be doable for valtan at 1415 then?
Everything is doable.
yea thats a mistake a lot of new players make.. at least you didnt pick gunslinger
good to know i avoided smtg worse then 😂 thanks!
Dps support is broken in solo mode because of the true supporter buff inside
It probably is even easier than a dps at this point
How do you get the set bonuses we use to have like nightmare/salvation/ect if you powerpass to 1600? you cant move that gear to the relic set right?
You don't. Set bonuses don't exist anymore
is there a better new player class guide than the one linked in the guides channel? I dont know anything about the game and im having trouble understanding what the differences between the classes are
Which guide are you looking at? Maxroll has a simple pros/cons guide. Lostark.nexus has the detailed class guide
You can always watch a youtube video of raid clears to see how classes play
im looking at the class selection guide in #guides-and-info
other than going on youtube and lookng up videos of each class and build, i dont think there is better guides than lostark.nexus ones.
if you have a favorite type of class or character you play in other games or preferred playstyle (high vs low apm, fast with many hits vs slow with big hits etc..), maybe we can tell you if this game has something similar that you might like.
I like melee dps and being able to build up resources or buffs and spending them for a big payoff
try surge deathblade then
Striker maybe
Sounds like you might enjoy Punisher Slayer, BT zerk
Ill check those out, thanks for the recommendations
FM Souleater also kinda fits that I guess.
hi, i have a noob question, could i sell it on market? is it worth something?
aight, ty
what do people usually farm as dailies on there alts? ive been doing leapstones or shards but i feel like i have so many of both
one of my alt is at 5k leaps and like 4.5M shards 1670 itemlevel
idk if doing solars unas is worth
just leaps.. always leaps since day 1 pretty much. too lazy to change the bifrosts to anything else.
i was thinking about it
im tihnking of swapping all of them to the solars for advance honing 11-20
since i have way enough shards and leaps
i also have like 200 instantcomplete tickets
and they are removing dailies i heard
so i should just start using em
they dont remove dailies
they are making them into the weeklies
and there will be the dailies that u didnt finish the reputation on
how is that working with the dailies removed
?dailies
Dailies will just be for reputation
do we have a road map of what you need to do every day or nah ?
oh ok
Once you finish the rep, the daily is gone
my rule of thumb is pushing character: leapstone, parked character: solars
Yo guys, when Valkyrie will be playable?
August
Holy moly, thanks for info XD
hey guys im a returning player and powerpassed one of my characters to 1600 when or where do i get the next amour to level up again? I get that i can hone to 1610 easily but idk about 1620
did they remove the trap mechanic from gate 2 in ivory tower?
you have to hone to 1620 which is +19 on all pieces then you get 1640 by transfering to the north kurzan dungeon gear
okay cool thanks and how do i get that gear. is it a vendor
its a dungeon
that u can do multiple times and it will give you the gear
start by honing to 1620
its quite a big push
thank you guys
Yeah not surpsing new players dont come to lost ark, even if you buy a power pass to 1600, its like 500 gold per tap
its way better than before
but yeah
back then it was average 500k gold
now its ''''''only'''''''' 200k
less if you have books ofc
yepp
btw i have a charater to like 1668 but thats bc of the power pass event giving me armour by doing the missions
appreciate the help
yeah
dont do alt
focus on one character
it will be plenty
you DONT need multiple chars
as a returning (but been so long might as well be new, my main when I quit was like 1365 ilvl) player, i just got a new character to Rohendel. Is the knowledge transfer up to my character even worth spending the gold? I'm assuming you still need to hone up your ilvl and such?
still need to hone up your level
why dont you keep playing your 1365 ilvl ?
wasn't sure about how i felt about my paladin even when I was playing it
wanted to try artist
okok i see
what raid is valley of piercing screams? brel g1?
around 1670 yep
is there anything im supposed to do with this orb? i cant interact it but it dropped from a guardian as well
i already picked up the other two orbs
it's guardian feces don't touch it bare handed
Radioactive
was it that?
think so
https://www.inven.co.kr/board/lostark/4811/8132945 appear to be its dead body, if google translate correct enough
this guardian event, can you get the chests without getting the soul
or do you need enough alts to collect the souls for the chances at the chests
If you ain’t rested I think it’s just 1 soul or box
it is sonavels dead body yes
how often do we get these events where honing materials are discounted ?
so far been around with new class release, 1 or 2 without iirc
and am i correct in saying that these material discounts only applies to one character and not the rest
yes
can anyone help me make a eu steam account?
No
didnt think steam function like that
no, your country law bans gambling
right side better choice, right?
what country are you from?
qatar
nvm, saw your EU tag, so I thought youre from Europe.
i will pl;ay on eu serv
also stuff that involves chances, like leg skin
yeah, but keep trying for that 220 😄
yeah, doing that, but failing. nerve wracking thing, 35% chance, 3 times in a row hit success on red one and then 75%, 3x times you fail on grudge/ambush 
another, bricked 15 already. What is the chance to hit at least 2 1
Hello people!
Just wondering if anyone has any knowledge on how the trusted status works.
Ive got 21 hours in game and ive started noticing that certain functions are locked behind this status thing
?trusted
Amazon changed how trusted status is obtained, the old way is "You need steam trusted / non limited and enabling 2fa on steam guard app", it's now an in-house system not reliant on steam. All the info they have given us on how to get it is "Play the game and you get it eventually".
Amazon Games Trusted Info
as far as we know yep, they could adjust it at any moment
15% chance for either a 2-1 or a 1-2, not sure how to do the math on the combined chance of getting one of them. getting a 2-2 is just under 5%
that is, of course, assuming you're doing it optimally, use something like https://lostark.meta-game.gg/ability-stone-calculator if you're not sure
Lost Ark Meta Game - Tools such as Armory lookups and a Simple Ability Stone Calculator to optimise your chances of successfully faceting your ability stones in Lost Ark
ah okey, thanks! calculator seems pretty good
they are pretty cheap on AH, but cost pheons 😦
yeah its a pain, thats why its best to be as optimal as possible, but its not DIRE like it used to be, it simply gives a very nice bonus to your engraving effects
keep at it as long as you're willing, then come back to it if you dont have any luck
aye, I guess I will do that, 1 and 1 like this seems pretty decent right now, still more dmg than mine lvl 2 ambush
Whats the TLDR with the accessory changes - highest quality highest enlightenment is all that matters?
All that matters? No. You still need appropriate damage/support lines rolled on them
oh is that the refinement bonus line?
There are a couple pics in the pinned comments with recommended lines. & Yes
that picture helps a ton
how about the stone, is it still trying to cut a specific level stone?
Same as always. 7/7 is ideal but a 7/6 is fine too
what does the 7/7 do in the current state of the game? basically 2 of your engravings are level 2?
higher qual generally means more stats, but as before it varies. i honestly don't know how significant the swing is, i dont imagine it's a lot, but the minimum for max enlightenment is 67
6 =level 1
7 =level 2
9 = level 3.
The higher the level the higher the bonus effect of the engraving. You can see it when you check your profiles engraving tab
7/7 also has the bonus HP
10 = level 4. 👍
10red best
whats the modern day 3x5x1 or w/e it use to be
2 level 2s?
like what the average person has
yeah, but engraving power is almost all in the books now
The old system isnt really comparable. You get 5 engravings by default. Class from ark passive
I just mean what do most people have stone wise
2/2 is still a good standard goal
7/6 or 7/7. Same as always
like I've seen a few people with 2 level 2s, is that typical?
(2/2/0)
gotcha
2/2 is the standard everyone kinda aims for, few lucky ones get 3/2 or 4/1.. havent seen any 3/3s or 4/2s but i guess those are possible.
can some1 confirm this only works on life skills within stronghold
yes it only works on sh farm
it tells u farm beforehand or so
No
It would giga be op if it did
well it change market prices for sure
i would actually have a reason to train farm pets 😛
Yeah that's what I was going about
I've been retraining pets on the farm for leg excavations across the board

keep going

are we allowed to ask dps meter questions here or naw
Big no
But if you're talking about the upcoming ingame meter. Not much info was shared
SG doesnt allow it, so we follow as
hey
i just reached level 50 can someone explain me what to do now?
i keep doing those blue quests?
i start doing some new activity?
There’s a tldr and a full google doc pinned about gear progression in this channel.
there's a non doc, same thing
yes i sawq
another very important question that just came in my mind
will i get a powerpass somewhen in the strory?
is there a way to get one for free?
no longer gain from completing story, new class release there mostly be freebie 1 and so forth events
they didn't, you missed the event
we should be getting one in august
powerpass expire after event if not used
there used to be north vern powerpass u gain perma
wow, i brought berseker to lv 50 hoping id get one bcs i saw an old video
but was 3 years ago
i dont really like the class
ah i see
There should be a new one coming out with the new class in August.
nothing is fine
but i really want to play the machinist
what is the new class?
Valkyrie(female paladin) is coming in august, newest we got right now is the Wildsoul.. released earlier this year.
just msq because u wont have gold to knownledge transfer...unless u wanna spend $ for powerpass
is it normal to only get an avg of 10 rare mats with this tool?
msq??
Main story quest
on a normal dig or from boxes/minigame
normal
thats what i use it for
i have a seperate tool for minigame
but that tool also doesnt yield much reward on avg
can be yes, as the baseline drop is like 2-4 I think. Soo if unlucky you could get the lowest rol
well really u just follow blue, orange remains until game is complete
but i think i unlocked the blue ones only after lv 45-46
so is that normal? for getting an avg of 10 when normal digging?
the hidden treasure chest is just rng in terms of reward right?
I just bought the 9.99 aura plus pack and i dont have the tickets/coupons it came with
Claimed from product inv, not in my mail, and not in my storage
you should have the brew in your char inventory
the rest goes into the Inventory Storage
on the third tab
check it again
Gettijng ss now
scroll all the way down within Content
yea i only have 52 which i already had
relog?
it's in the stronghold tab
is there any way to destroy this item it takes so much space
sell npc
hi i just hit t4, do i immediately upgrade to t4 accessoires or can i stay on t3 for a while since they give the same enlightment points?
@rose wren thank you so much it works ;d
Where do i check what stronghold mission im on? Cant find any of em in J
I just did a mission to put furniture in the manor
Probably in strong hold
yea but theres no quest icon anywehre
If there is no quest you might need to do research
I have the feast table just no chef and thats why im tryna get
Level 2 dispatch upgrading to 3
same with crafting
research them
what does power pass do ? because i'm 1535, if I pick north kurzan powerpass, will I get the ilvl required with my gear ? or just the mats to hone it or whatever idk this looks weird a bit
skip story and provide gear, it tells u
so the gear I already have just becomes useless ?
is there a flow chart somewhere on what steps to do for tier 3 and tier 4? Im playing catch up and getting a little overwhelmed. Ive gotten my main to 1620, gotten my elixir 40 set, just did the theamine darkfire trancendance 3 flowers on the 6 pieces, now i got to do behemoth g1 to do the weapon. but after that im kinda lost on what to do.
no, quaility might be better then ull follow pin how to transfer it over
pin
ty
aight ty
This world is cooked
not something new really
if a friend of mine starts lost ark does he need to waint until next event for an powerpass
there's no power pass currently so he would have to do the main quest 1-50 and then t2 500 ilvl to 1100 (t3), and then 1100 to 1490. 1490 to 1580. 1585 to 1620 (which is couple months of consistent play)
the current progression is also only for 1640+ characters and ends in july, so he wouldn't even be able to use it before it goes away
when is the next event shop coming
after guardian event prob
is it worth getting honor star guanlets or wait and just get honor fang guanlets
no longer require legendary gear tier to progress, can go epic > relic, see pin nowadays progression
okay thanks
probably exchange those for some leapstones or something
you aint getting that material ever again prob
what mats? the argos blood?
mhm
is this game worth getting into as a new player?
its free
the only thing you can lose is time
worth is extremely subjective to each individual and how their value their resources, time being one
if i invest time will i come across content lock outs?
where i have to spend money or anything?
okie okie
cause i stopped playing before and i lost my old steam account email so ig im starting anew
a sec
atm we got no newbie events so you will be playing from literal 0, from scratch
so im cookedddd
we get an event in august with a pass and all that

if you start now you can start on the horizontal stuff, they made it easier to get all early stuff but still takes time
up to u, either get used to the game again and soakup the info or later when events r about
a lot of stuff changed as well, core stuff
wowww
so you either take it easy and learn now or suffer for like a whole week later
why a whole week later
there's a lot of details to go through
coz it wont take a day to learn every single new system that gets thrown at you in a day
there is a lot
especially on pass+express moments
but again, its how you value your time
hmmmmm any new classes?
plenty
you can shift G (skips all dialogues npcs have) to speed thru the story, so it only takes like 15hrs or something to get to the dailies
newest arriving is Valkyrie
ouuu can i see
any video for someone in my position?

Watch me live on Twitc...
and 
im so curious what this upcoming class look like
its already in kr
so you can find videos
its literally paladin but with tiddies
gender unlock
but its shit at supporting
so is it a dps or support
it has both
the dps is stronger than support build for now
dps build on supports has been buffed majorly recently in kr
do you know when she comes to NA
august
gosh so far
bugged
is there a possibility that lost ark will ever add free slot for more than 6 roster characters?
do the 0x mech normally
no
no
so just no wei
yeah
is Wild soul a good pick?
whichever u enjoy
last thing you want is for someone to bias a class for you to play and you ended up hating it
i just want to make sure i get accepted into parties
😭
alright innana worked, that bugs annoying though
you wont get into groups for a while, early game is quite dead, thats why solo raids exists
okie okie
doo this game has like a black mage
sorceress
sorc
your classic spellcaster
only slight downside is party synergy, various on whose in already
sorc is fun
sorc is fun
i think ms su better
if you're all about missing Meteor after casting it? then you're in the right place
no
every chars only as good as the pilot
she uses a staff
not same as ff summoner
thank god
wowwww yall even have astroooo
sorc right hand. summoner left hand stick
stuck between Wildsoul, Sorc, shadow hunter,scrapper
wow this game has alot of monks
is this a game that require alts?
not at all
no, that was all bait
Awwww
roll d999 to decide ur class 
how i do that
@paper walrus You rolled 65
you're playing souldfist
how can you tell what class it gives u
manually
he's trolling
i am
if it wasn't obvious
im like a blank canvas on anything here
what were the choices again
you can start with the class you think would suit you the best, after a bit of playing you can create alts to decide if there are classes that fit you better since you can knowledge transfer when you get to vern (pretty early in the story)
he aint having 600g to do that for the longest time
so the advice, while not the worse, doesnt fit him
where r they suppose to get gold from unless waiting around for adventure island rotation
oh I thought 600g is pretty easy to get from island quests no?
in the end if you reaaaaaaaaaaally wanted you can make all 4 of them
you think a new new person has the knowledge for that?
they are fighting their demons to know where the next msq is after shushire
I mean after a week or two they'll learn lol
all quests that had gold got shot becoz bots
im like so lost in this convo ill just start with the one that looks the coolest and make alts when i get bored of 1q
a week or two
excelent
sure...
yeah thats prob the best

done
there's steps
if you try to run before learning to walk its gonna go bad
like trying to go straight into mystic raids without knowing what a gcd is
somewhere near luttera castle, can start working lifeskills, it regen energy overtime again
my account is not trusted status but i bought costumes from the shop?
is it because of the merge of servers?
they changed trusted system awhile ago
Amazon changed how trusted status is obtained, the old way is "You need steam trusted / non limited and enabling 2fa on steam guard app", it's now an in-house system not reliant on steam. All the info they have given us on how to get it is "Play the game and you get it eventually".

ah i have 2fa so i will have to just play the game now?
welp rip the superior oreha fusion stone market buying

you dont even need to neccesarily get superior fusions from the market, you have the solo mode shop
is it bad if i play on controller? or is it more perference or do it depend on the class
i managed to clear solo valtan and vykas but i think these stats are so dang low to get a quick clear xD
just realized this game has controller supp
wowww so cute
its not too low
but def can be improved
Honing and getting akkan gear?
gear looks fine for where you are at
time to speak to god about your gear
one of your earring and ring would need to be replaced with a higher quality one
missing out on 2 enlightenment points like that
Can I raise the quality of them?
you'd want accesories with at least 67 quality

I guess I can't reach 120 points yet with this gear
Guys is there a way I can tell what classes don’t need cursor aiming?
120 evolution points? of course not
Enlightenment points
theres no 120 enlightenment
current limit is 101
rn cap is 101
but if you're not at 1680, with horizontals and stuff, you can sit around 80 enlightenment points
And this sidereal weapon I heard this sht is expensive asf
and having 77/80 enlightenment points is where you'd mostly end up at in tier 4 until you access higher end items and the karma system
ye, and completely optional too
do not make a sidereal weapon unless you have the financial expense for it
sidereal weapon 
I'm out of damn oreha stones and I bought them all out of the solo shop
your best bet is to go lifeskilling 
then prob gotta get some unbound gold from adventure islands
it's a huge bottleneck for a new player

oh i see why you are lacking in enlightenment
your accessories are also uncut
thats a lot of damage loss there
have you done your weekly unas yet?
you indeed are broke af 
and have the tokens to exchange for the gold boxes
id also recommend doing the Sonaval guardian raid for a shot at a gold box too
you refine the uncut accessories at a Refinement npc in town
you'd easily see it with the ring icon
refine the ones you want to refine, you dont really need to worry about the refinement stat lines yet
Why it sound like this will be like the bracelet stat reroll stat reroll but for accessories
bracelot roll but worse
Ah sht nooo refinement lines
I remember that sht system
But first I gotta be a better accessories quality
it's ok, at this point, you're just cutting the accessories for the enlightenment points rather than the stats

Sadge
so just cut any >=67 quality accessory to fill in the slot
doesnt really matter if they're duds atm
like i said
The question is does it use gold?
when you get to Tier 4 (1620/1640) thats where you'll have to start paying a little bit more attention to what you have on your accessories since you will now have 3 stat lines to roll on it if you care about your damage. take it for example like this one
ye i think so
so it's up to you whether you wanna bother with it now, or do it in t4
considering you're stuck in solo play for a while
pretty sure it uses silver in tier 3 iirc
What's the currency we got from before the solo raids exist called since I done plenty of the normal raids
i think its silver in t3
It was some kind of currency we could exchange for those coins
🤔
i only remember clown's mayhem condoms

Y'all still do clown?
nawh
for fun? yea
but back then, solo tokens werent centralised
like each raid had its own clear token
and it was only usable for Legion Raid Exchange
good ol times

Fck I'm old ASF then
Used to play on the Korean servers ages ago
I'm thinking with old mentality
Now brel wants her rematch because she was humiliated
why do most classes run 0 points in release potential? is the value of 10% cdr on T just way worse than the hyper awaken dmg?
less value in shorter raids aka hw raids (less t-skill cast). more value in longer raids (more t-skill cast)
What does "Unable to proced simultaneously with the following quest" mean? I just did a guardians will bc the weekly una quest i accepted was that, but it didnt complete
You cannot do 2 unas with the same requirments at the same time. 1 guardian una at a time
I only had 1 weekly accepted
You can accept the other guaridna una after completing or abandoning the first
Same with the chaos dungeon or cube Unas
Also its only 2 souls even with max rest
Anyway, I tried joining a chaos gate earlier and it didnt bring me in and just said "Waiting to enter" until it disappeared
Not enough people
did you join as it spawn or when it was about to dissapear?
You hit matchmaking and because everyone does them in a group it just qued forever
Everyone else went in but me
so you stayed in the looking for other players for 3minutes? and then it closed?
You mean i was chosen not to join got it
No... I was at a chaos gate, that appears every hour. There were 5 other people and me
They went in i did not
You were not "chosen". You likely qued up late and there wasnt enouph people to fill a lobby
Just try again next hour and join early
different iLevel go into different sessions. maybe there werent enough at your iLevel
5 people is not nearly enouph. Theyr 30 pople lobbies
Depending on your ilvl tier there might not be a lot of people queing for it
Yea, 1490 is a very very small player group to begin with
1490 dead zone
1490 means you are trying to group up with other 1490s. your not gonna group up with 1600 players
it will be hard to find chaos gate with 1490. the event powerpass starts you off at 1580. so if your at 1490, the only other 1490 you are gonna play with are people that started off playing the game after the event powerpass expired
you will be put into a chaos gate based on your item level. i doubt those other 6 people were all under 1540
Returning player and I seem to have an issue I didn’t think I would have, two of my characters don’t have weapon trans completed and I heard that apparently bussing was banned. Are people still as nitpicky with behemoth as they were before even if you have Eye of tempest ?
Not really
Raid old so it’s easier to get in, also it’s kinda like a gr run people blow him up super fast if there’s any juicer in the lobby
Bussing isnt banned. Just the advertising in party finder. You would have to look for outside sources which we dont allow sharing here.
Requirements wise its mostly just on ilvl. a 1660+ can get into a lobby easy. Lower ilvls are still easy with people of similar ilvl you just have to do some guardians in G1 instead of kipping everything
I don’t recommend going the bus route regardless, the raid is really easy
Gotcha, jw if it's possible for me to get them done with , I have deathless and EoT but I remember it was always a pain to get my 1650s in lobbies
so many mechanics in the game are mechanics from older bosses being reused. the more you bus the less you know about the raid, the harder it will be for you when you actually try to play the game
thats not the issue
I would help if you were euc to get you into a lobby but that’s not possible
I think you should be able to find lobbies just fine
Save the gold 
your 1650s should be able to get into lobbies pretty fine though. maybe if your 1640s u might have a harder time when trying to join parties with really high end players
especially behemoths should be easy to get in. id say echidna would be the one that you struggle but even then i still see 1640-1660 lobbies
I havent even tried to do echidnas or thaemines since I've returned xD I went into solo to make sure I remember the patterns first and its pretty funny how fast the muscle memory came back
but it would depends when you play the game too i guess since that would affect the ammount of parties you see
I quit before aegir so I got a bit of catching up ( came back partly cuz solo aegir was coming out ) 2nd was valkyrie
hows does one get the picture frame item in stronghold? is it crafted?
how are reports in this game?
does aws take them seriously?
some guy just started slurring the fk out of me in an argeos raid for no reason
i reported for inap. language
in league for example he would get banned for 2 weeks min atleast for that
idk how it is here tho
my suggestion is block and move on 😄
take evidence and report them directly on the website if its actually serious insults
event shop next to minimap
ohhh ok tyty
theres a quest on the farm island for 1, i believe you can buy more in f4 shop
someone fact check em
correct
There are a few different styles in f4 atm
ah gn i already swapped chars didnt think to take pics, im guessing they can check chat logs with the in-game report
anyways its w/e
Theres really no way to know if ingame reports do anything at all. Might need more than 1 report for anything to happen. And the one time I reported some slurring dimwit who also admitted to using meter in the party chat the support just told me how to report someone ingame.
Anyway yea just block and forget.
admitting to using meter in-game is still a problem? i've seen a lot of ppl just openly talking about it in-game chats lately
a legal ingame version will come soon, so amazon doesnt really give a fuck anymore (for the most part)
using meter is fine, calling ppl mentally slow or other fun gamer words cos they didnt meet your standards for dps is not fine.
i see
you cant talk about using the meter ingame at all.
I'm 1663 returning player, and I still get gatekept for Behemoth... I tried to get a group for 1h and gave up.
I play support Artist, with correct setup (not the full Lostwind Cleef card set yet)
Maybe that's why.
But it is sad 😔
1660+ should have a mostly free entrance
so more than probably some other aspects of your build suck
170 roster is probably why
no it isnt
does the line on support Ts that say +20% hyper awakening skill dmg buff my T or "hyper awakening" ik that may sound dumb
i doubt it's because of your roster level, can u send your ign so i can check your build?
just incase, also apply early!
it buffs Hyper Awakening damage, not T damage
he may be playing during the hour where there are only unhinged players 
in rohendel the wandering merchant Eiza when does she spawn?
from time to time
amazing
Is there recommend class to go for as a beginner or does not matter to much?
overall recommendation is going for a class that you personally like how it looks or plays, but there are some classes that are very hard for people to use as a beginner
What classes my ask are you referring that are hard?
Some classes like Arcanist can be little harder than others to play well, and then theres few classes that require high lvl gems and runes to do well. But yea just play whatever you think looks fun and interesting to you. None of the classes are overwhelmingly difficult.
Some classes have very strict rotations, or deal dmg only in their burst window and if something happens during your burst you just dont do anything.. other classes might require you to hit all of your skills etc.. then theres classes that have no rotations whatsoever and are just free to spam their skills and fire off spells.
tldr, different classes are difficult in different aspects so pick what you like the look of so you stick with it. If you are not a dog person why would you get a dog? 
is there a list of wandering merchant cards?
i wanna check which ones i dont have full collection of yet
Okay appreciate it guys
arcana, soulfist, gunslinger, deathblade, reaper
I guess lostmerchants.com has a list of them but i dunno if it has been updated
if you putting gunslinger there might want to put EW deadeye 
as a new player you will find it hard to raid with those classes in the beginning, as they require more knowledge than others
and starting the game you barely know wtf is going on
this being an action game and bosses having hands (some) makes it not very fun for very casual players
it will say collection complete when you hover the merchants on the map and the card they sell are collection complete
if youre a god gamer then you can just do whatever you want
I feel like ew is harder than gs imo. At least from what I played
I do love it when I do z dps when boss moves his butt 2m away from me
Ew the butt 
if i swap chars inside of a damaging patch of sea, will my ship be dead when i log back in on that char?
just checked akkan rewards and crafting, I will be timegated another 5 weeks just for akkan set? 
no
how hard to get the 2nd blood claw? especially the dispatch and cube part
easy
if u have bad luck with dispatch then its gonna be annoying
other than that it's all easy, only the timagated reputation one is annoying me
the cube one is free if you have alot of cubes ofc
i have to clear rimeria first or doesnt matter? just got back after 2 months lmao
hella lost
yes, then you get an una that lasts for 2 weeks to finish the reputation
have to be in golden room or what
which one is better
left
is it worth rerolling for better stats or is the current one good enough ?
I would just use it until its completely worn down and then craft a new one.. or upgrade to relic
is crafting a new one better than restoring the quality ?
probably yea, unless you got extremely good one.. its very cheap to just make new legendary tool and its very expensive to restore.
for akkan g3 does it matter where i use the wei skill to end the fight below x15?
just tried it and failed somehow and he was at 14 bars
it might still be bugged.. i saw lot of ppl posting about that this week.
just kill the boss the normal way, if you want you can thirain at the end that instantly breaks it or use inana for safety and break it yourself.
Do I use the books to level up my class engravings?
Yep thats right, you gotta eat 20 purple books, then 20 legendary books and then 5+5+5+5 = 20 relic books. 👍
wait no theres no class engravings anymore. sorry i read you wrong
they got deleted. its all ark passives now.
So I can delete the books?
Class engraving books yea you can dismantle or sell, if you still somehow have those.. Combat engravings no, those are still useful.
Where do I get the legendary engravings books from?
Random drops from chaos, cubes etc. Event shop, express events, market place.
i didnt even see the cocoon it was meant to be
it was 0hp but nothing happened 🥲
The frog shop has them right?
Yea at 0 hp he turns into an egg and you gotta do enough weak point hits to crack it.. Thirain does it instantly. But you can also use inanna for the shield and then start throwing some weakpoint hits or destro bombs yourself.
I dont remember if frog had them but probably yes., anyway frog is long gone now, but he could be back next year.
The purple books are basicaly worthless, and if I understood correctly they will be deleted from the game in next patch. And even the legendary books are very very cheap these days because we got handed so many for free in the last year or so... The relic ones however are very very expensive. (Most popular ones can be well over 200k each)
200k gold?
Wtaf I assume those must come from endgame activities
while the legendary books are maybe 100-200 gold
Yea the relic books are very rare and in very high demand.. we did get a few relic selection chests from anniversary events and such.. but yeah. very rare and very expensive, but the good thing is you dont have to buy all 20 to get the bonus from it, you can eat just 5 relic books and get the first node.
do we have a gdoc that compares lifeskill tools options ?
hey everyone, is there any free powerpass what you can claim?
im a returning player after 2-3 years
Currently no, right now the next one is expected in August with Valkyrie release
Okay, thanks for the answer 
how much one tool kit restore? because its 20 of restore kits for 10 crystals in mari shop often
I dont remember, but it might be 1 toolkit for 1%. All i remember is that its hecking expensive and need a lot of them.. I only use them on my relic cos those I dont want to craft too many of.. 🤷♂️
hmm, it would be like 4k gold then, which is not bad. one leggo craft is 2k+ now I think and last time I spend 10k on crafts of leggo tools and didnt get single good one
Edit:just checked and buying mats from market for leggo craft is 2,7k
Anyone can tell me why this quest is anaivable ?
since the solo shop is gonna be updated to t4 in july, does it mean we’re getting t4 lvl 5-6 gems as well at least?
Perhaps
or we dont know
But it's not guaranteed
I think kr got lvl6 T4 gems in their solo shop, so we might get the same.
so if i want more evolution points i will have to use the gear upgrade feature?
Yeah thats it. Keep honing your gear and upgrading it to higher tier(s) when possible.
Theres a gear progression guide in the pinned messages.
i guess i use the gold aquision for the solo leigion raids?
Right, basicly the 3 highest raids you can do. And you can do this on up to 6 characters. (6x3 raids per week).
hmm i never upgraded the brelshaza gear at all so i do clown then at kayagel for the mats?
according to the guide it says ill need the mayhem horn for lvl 2
i thought i can skip that part
and go for lvl 3
Thats outdated, you can skip clown and get straight to lvl3 from kaya
ok
But if you are at that itemlevel you can do it for the gold
Like if you got a 1490 character for example, you'd do brel(1490), kakul(1475) and vykas(1445?) I guess.. until you get enough mats from brel to move up to 1540 and then you'd run Kayangel instead of vykas
Hello if i have an una rep points of 90/100, can i finish it on the same day if i do it once more on an alt?
no
Are there no una tasks that i can just do on multiple alts to complete faster?
But before you get started on Kayangel, do something with your enlightenment 
Theres a few depends on what you want.. I do una dailys for leaps and theres quite a few really short ones like the ghost ship one is literaly just 1 button and takes maybe 5seconds depending on how long your loadingscreen is if u set your bifrost there..
I see i been using my main to complete ones i need (like masterpieces, and now island souls) after completing essential ones
I thought i could finish some of these faster using alts but after completing a couple i realize i cant do that
What una dailies do you recommend i set my alts up for, if my main is taking care of the ones i need for roster?
Ghost ship one i assume, do you have two other recommendations?
I forgot what they are called but I just do the leapstone on in Sage tower in voldis, the ghost ship one and mokoko nightmarket
the sage tower one you need to click 2 things, the mokoko market you need to talk to 3 npc.. that one might take you 15seconds so its the slowest of the three
deepdive 30 > los 18?
im sorry i do not get it do d4 closed for me or i just need to clear g3?
Id have your alts do the roster ones, and main focus on leaps/shards
G4 can only be completed once per 2 week cycle
You need to clear g3 to enter it though
Los18 better
ive gone to multiple pirate ships at docks to try and exchange pirate coins to gienahs coin but have no luck so far
i heard it was possible and saw it in a video, can some1 confirm?
Ever was
never was?
Not possible, only other way around works
rip
do yall think it would be possible for me to hit 1640 before the "road to act 3" event thingy goes away? (im f2p)
i know 2 ppl that hit it and are fresh 1640's and with the event and u do all ur essentials quite possible
now to complete the road is another story
gotcha ty sir
if it's no party finder content run deepdive
67 yes
what is that procyon protection, never seen it
Notice how they are on a character with a much higher ilvl than the recommended raid level
Basically a DR buff or whatever

where is the ship for second bloodclaw fragmanet
yeah, I was googling that right now and its for players with no mokoko buff
Actually never mind it goes the other way
Procyon's Protection:
Damage to monsters increased by 10%, damage received decreased by 20%.
Unbreakable Mind: Taking lethal damage makes you Invincible for 3 seconds, instantly recovers 75% of HP, and resets cooldowns for Stand Up and Movement Skill (8 minute cooldown).
Procyon's Protection is granted to players that have cleared all gates of the corresponding Abyssal Dungeon, Abyss Raid, or Legion Raid 10 times or less per Roster.
aye, thats what I found aswell + its for players without mokoko buff
this is dmg buff and one extra life on some mech for new and returning players or if you fail to much in raids i think
it moves randomly?
yes

where do most people do logging at?
saw someone doing a place called Windy valley I think but I dont see that on the map
Rimeria or north kurzan
Sounds like rimeria
Which one to keep and repair durability or do i craft another one?
Thinking of repairing 1 and keeping 2 for kicks but its real annoying to swap and i dont end up using it that often anyways.
No idea 🤷
Attempts Drop Rate is just a chance for Kick skill refresh. So overall 1 is a lot better
pins
i lied
it got unpinned
2 is a lot better than the rest of your axes if you use 4 as your kicking axe
i cant check but minigame attempt, minigame reward, treasure pouch is what to look for
if you're too lazy to swap then just stay with 1
3 isnt worth looking at and 4 is only useful for kicking
kicks are not affected by the other modifiers( i.e. all material drop rate)?
no they are not
alright thanks lads
Anyone getting server authentication error 10010 when trying to log in? or just me
and if so does any1 know of any fixes
should I be using the conc leapstones on alts or the main?
for the main id have to convert up
check from arth first on that route to the top right island before xx:25-xx:30 iirc
doesnt really matter too much
all around the same tap%
anyone know what the lost ark twitchdrops give ?
looks like cards and battle items
how did it exceed for me? ive never cleared it. my friend is able to enter still and theyve gone in multiple times
Were you doing this solo or by group
Solo
Did you force quit the game in the middle of the run
Is there any new bard build out?
My power shut off yeah
Check your mail for copium
can anyone help getting a trusted account i have bought stuff on steam and everything but still says not trusted
?trusted
Amazon changed how trusted status is obtained, the old way is "You need steam trusted / non limited and enabling 2fa on steam guard app", it's now an in-house system not reliant on steam. All the info they have given us on how to get it is "Play the game and you get it eventually".
Amazon Games Trusted Info
Buying does nothing but thank for supporting us
You play and eventually you will get it
Thanks for your kind donations
dam how long i got to play for lmao
And sitting in party finder lobby is normal

Not
Nope....
Welp Wednesday is only 2 days away
which one? souleater
Normally when my laptop turns off i just get sent back to beginning with spawn thing
would it still matter if i have a vac ban on steam?
left
y would other ban matter?
Lost ark trusted is not connected to Steam trusted at all.
ah okay fairs that's good then
i'm confused, beeen killing these things for like 3/4 min and i got only 2 of the buffs i need
great rainforest 9/10 seeds, anyone got a clue?
Anyone can give me some examples of daily routines on Lost Ark? Like, what you do when you enter the game , the sequel of farms etc. If possible a detailed one, I'm having trouble on what to do and I'm a systematic guy haha
Uhh if i remember correctly just kill a bunch and it turns into the buff. Like you can see with the blue and yellow one. You just need the green one now.
I dont think every single mob gives it
Visit sh, set everything up (pet ranch, sh farm, dispatch). Daily chaos dungeon, guardians, unas. Check daily event (chaos gate, field boss, adv island). Do weekly stuff like raids, weekly unas.
Additionally check in on any horizontal you might be doing. Rapport, island mini games (buzzling, indigo) if youre buying their shops.
log in main character
do kurzan front
do guardian raid
sometimes do some raids
sometimes do ebony cube
log into other character
repeat
Are there any discord servers besides this one that are more tailored to players returning into the game?

If anything I feel like we have a lot more guides and resources linked here for new players. They have their own help chat which is similar
In the official discord you need to give your phone number to type though. That’s why I just read. 😛
No
i got kicked out twice, its a pain, cant even stay around to keep up to date
What did you do tits...
nothing because it require verify phone bullshit
I've never had to verify my phone number there and im still in it
Like I'm also still there, never had to verify my phone number too
Unless you mean its just the generic 2fa of discord which is whatever
Should be doing that anyway
You can read but not type if you don’t do the phone check thing.
I just talked just fine idk
Maybe it’s a new thing that older members don’t have to do.
if u have role already, it doesnt appear, its a way to bypass if u know some1 and slap a role u
I can only imagine its discords generic 2fa and not a requirment specific to their discord
yea its everywhere, its optional setting to have it on there
games 3years.. so i probably join maybe 2year agos, couldnt talk in there, no idea when u join
I joined like last year
doesnt have to be
When they had the emote contest voting shit
And I can't access the voting shit without being in there
No he doesn't
Likewise, this isn't the place to rant
Bozo left the server. lol anyways
Braden, if you could just remove that whenever you can
It's a pointless message
anybody know how to fix? tried restarting everything already
Are you using vpn
nope
Are you sure
yes im sure xd
Please check your background activities
For any third party software and programs running
Not saying I don't trust you, but I don't know if you're honest
i was able to log in yesterday night, only started this morning
havent done anything different than usual
Restart your computer as well too
Most of the time it's those connection drivers that go a little crazy sometimes
does ambush master apply even if you dont land a back attack?
like does it just buff back attack skills no matter what
Whatever it says
If it says when you do a back attack then it's for when you do a back attack
So typically any class that needs to sniff ass and have BA applied then Ambush is the ideal engrave
lmao
It's not complicated
so it needs to actually say back attack when the hit lands, meaning i didnt hit them in the face with a back attack skill
A back attack does need to hit the back to be back attack

Backshots for extra damage yea
you're out
restarted everything and still not working ;-; its a sign
Whats the pity amount for Field boss for Enlightenmen potion?
back attack damage = damage bonus to back attack skills to the back
Back attack skills damage = damage bonus to back attack skills no matter where you hit from
And then there's the bracelet which defies both
I understand the confusion

Can't believe I had to use Reddit but, very old post regarding 10010
ty
is there an optimal dps ability stone to go for or if theres a suboptimal engraving to avoid? currently have a kbw-am 2-2 stone but i see that am-adre stones are priced higher
Depends on build
The biggest suboptimal ones to avoid are super charge, all out attack, (precise dagger and kbw) - these 2 class dependent
I had realized before one of my dps build had avoided KBW so I had to switch out of it

Speaking of build

HAI
Also adrenaline is a little bit more complicated to calculate
But in general it's mid-lower mid
the best 3 on a stone when you can cut them are mpe/CD/SS in that order
just pick any of the engraving u're require to have
for context its dps db
Surge? Remain?
remain
kbw-am stones are 4g whereas adre-am is 145g base in my current market so wondering if i should pivot
why are you running kbw
do you have its books
you can just run rc instead
if you can keep up with dark order uptime, better than kbw gamba
it was an old stone i used in t3 never bothered to switched it till now
you realise that you need to spend pheons buying them right? even if it costs 1g you still eat up the pheon cost and those are not cheap unless you have 1k of them from events
