[manic quarry]

If you or everyone else in the group eats infection patterns, basically you're causing a wipe

[vast oriole]

Still never crafted it and i do 5 mordums every week

[manic quarry]

And so the neutralizer is the item you use

To put down the infection stacks

Which is not good news

If it needs to be used

[primal herald]

whats the difference

between boomers and rats

i tought no rats means like, no alts with budget gear or something

whats a boomer then lol

[manic quarry]

No rat alts, no boomer reactions

[primal herald]

reactions?

like, emote spamming?

[manic quarry]

Sorry i meant slow ass reaction time

[primal herald]

oh

well ig thats useless title then cuz they wouldn't know that from party finder lol

[manic quarry]

That's aegir yeah?

[primal herald]

yeah

[manic quarry]

Hmm

[primal herald]

ig they mean

for the just guards

cuz theres a few in aegir and they do basically lethal dmg if ur not overgeared

[manic quarry]

Nah

The first mech as well

Stagger+Marks

[primal herald]

oh yeah the akkan one

i swear thats like top 2 hardest mechs in aegir

the first akkan one lol

[manic quarry]

You kinda had to react quickly whether you got marked and then matching it to the appropriate clock direction

When you complete the stagger

[primal herald]

cuz its 4 ppl too and a single miss is wipe

[manic quarry]

Yuuup

[manic quarry]

It's hard because you need full coordination from both parties

And anyone lagging behind on it is a wipe

[jade berry]

anyone got an excavating map for rimeria?

[primal herald]

what was the uh

title for 1st anniversary

i feel like i saw someone with a title that looked like it was from 1st aniversary

[broken hollow]

finally did it 🙂

[manic quarry]

Wooooo

How much time was left

[broken hollow]

no idea, theres a timer?

[manic quarry]

Well on the berserk timer

[broken hollow]

I didn't pay attention to it 😦

[manic quarry]

Oh, well you don't really need to pay attention to it

If the boss starts going berserk, usually not a good sign and an indication you are behind on damage

The time limit is typically 15 minutes until berserk is active

[broken hollow]

it was pretty fun, probably the most fun together with chaos dungeons

[primal herald]

enjoy chaos dungeons while you can

in a couple of weeks its gonna become the most boring thing on the planet

[manic quarry]

Can you kill a boss when it goes berserk? Uuuuhm that depends on a lot of things.

Because once it goes berserk, it restores a set amount of health bars, its attack speed goes zoom, it deals way more damage, and sometimes it slowly regens health

[outer mason]

It's a simple thing
You can generally kill the boss in enrage if you're a god gamer
but the thing is, you'll never reach enrage timer if you're god gamer

[manic quarry]

Obviously

[broken hollow]

ohh i saw it did restore some health bars just when it went into the ground and spawned a bunch of clones so i guess i wasnt in time

[turbid reef]

i finished mordum g3 on berserk xd

its possible but

really hard

[manic quarry]

Nah

That was his phase transition

[turbid reef]

valtan berserk tho

[manic quarry]

It's intended

[turbid reef]

its really crazy

its almost impossible to dodge the attacks at 30x

you almost fail every time

[primal herald]

is this a Mokoko General but from a different mokoko event?

[turbid reef]

yes

last event if i remember right

or 2 event before

should be one of them

[glacial basin]

can i get help

[outer mason]

2nd Mokoko Bootcamp event

[turbid reef]

exactly what it says

press j

and type the quest name

finish quest

then you can do this

[turbid reef]

should be something around 5 minute

there is search bar above j tab

press there and search military district tour

locate and do the quest

[rain pecan]

Nice, i failed last night with like 10mill HP left cause of cat-on-keyboard

[glacial basin]

i can't find anything

[vast oriole]

using search tab is one of the worst idea you can do

[turbid reef]

why

i always used it

no problem had before

[vast oriole]

because most of the times, it doesnt work

[turbid reef]

well i never had a problem

unless

its a hidden quest

this one is not a hidden tho

i did this still remember

[vast oriole]

90% of people here asking questions about quest is because they use search tab

[glacial basin]

What does this mission require from me? It shows 2 regions but doesn't tell me what to choose.

[turbid reef]

it requires you to do one of the purple quest it says in your screen before doing this quest

so you need to do either military district tour or crafting district tour

before doing the quest

and both of these quest should be somewhere around there

to find it

you can use search bar

which i used all the time

or

you can search the quest name in youtube

which there should be some videos about it

generally there is

[vast oriole]

https://lostarkcodex.com/us/quest/1501191/

[turbid reef]

both of them should be saying locate

when you press locate

it shows the quest in minimap

find the npc

talk with him and finish the quest

then you can do your world quest

[obsidian valve]

World quests, good times

[glacial basin]

finally

[turbid reef]

im still doing them

[manic quarry]

That's the second Bootcamp title yes

[turbid reef]

im against memory transfer? or what is it called idk

[outer mason]

knowledge transfer (to skip continent questline)

[turbid reef]

yeah

i think its nonsense unless you are busy all the time and can't do the quest

or you are super rich and don't need anything from quest

[outer mason]

I think it's mostly a matter of saving time and repetitivity
once you've done north kurzan 3 already, you don't want do it again
the story is the same, the dialog are the same, it's just not interesting repeatable content

[pure basin]

is this good on brace, i assume not?

[turbid reef]

ofc its the same story

but it takes like 2 hours to finish

and gives you mats too

[outer mason]

well that's your opinion, but a lot of people value their time
even in Lost Ark I know

[turbid reef]

don't get me wrong

but if you can play with 6 character and do 18 raids every week

your time is not valuable

[outer mason]

It's actually pretty good

[turbid reef]

you are just another random guy likes to play the game and can do the quest

but like i said thats my opinion

anyone can use it or not

[turbid reef]

it is

[vast oriole]

its good, depending on your class

ask in your class channel

[pure basin]

i am unga bunga striker c:, saw a note on the ppt for this

its top tier apparently

[vast oriole]

then good

[thorny heath]

Do I think I'm being smart, or am I being dumb again somehow:
I always buy the Aegir HM auction chest even on my main (because noone does), for 50g, which gives 10 hellfire keystones, which i exchange for 2 of these pouches. Worst case i get 2k gold value out of it -50g for buying the chest. Am I doing this right or is there something I'm not thinking about.

[turbid reef]

no

nothing wrong

you can keep doing that

just do the match

math*

and don't overpay for chest

this is pretty clever tho never think about that

[thorny heath]

1 blue juicer is already 200g here on EUC so the chest being 50g I don't think it's ever not worth it (but asking since it usually turns out i keep forgetting something and in fact do not outsmart anyone lmao)

[livid fossil]

God dammit. There was not one safe space nearby in theamine

I was robbed of run

[turbid reef]

happened a lot

[livid fossil]

I did the typing when I was done I looked there was no where to go lol

[maiden locust]

you dont tranfer providence set after you get dimensional right? just dismantle old providence?

[livid fossil]

I think transfer starts at relic

So yeah i could also be wrong

[rose jewel]

No one goes by names coz they're weird, is this T2 to T3?

Or t3 purple to relic

[thorny heath]

hey at least that's information, more than usual

[maiden locust]

t2 to t3

[manic quarry]

I thought you cleared this before

[rose jewel]

Hone transfer to get a free +1, the armors then disappear

If you honed the t3 already then trash the t2

[livid fossil]

I did

But like i said there was no safe spot after typing nearby

[maiden locust]

i did half of them because the pinned guide didnt say anything about it

ty tho

[livid fossil]

You only have certain amount time to make to one

[rose jewel]

Nothing of value was lost anyway, barely any mats

[obsidian valve]

Not even sure why T1/2 mats are still a thing anyway

[rose jewel]

Coz smile is dentge af

[livid fossil]

L9l

[tame solar]

hey guys could someone help with an chaos dungeon? noone is queing for it been waiting 30 mins .-.

[rose jewel]

You don't queue it, solo it

It's the literal easiest content in the game

[obsidian valve]

Which one, I'm curious

[tame solar]

The first one

[rose jewel]

There is a reason (besides other things) that they will delete the queue for it

[tame solar]

im to weak to solo it

[obsidian valve]

But yeah, solo is good 🙌

[rose jewel]

You probably don't even have your skills leveled up

Chaos dungeon is perfectly soloable at any level by any character

[tame solar]

uhh... ill give it a try then

[rose jewel]

What class are you

[tame solar]

Deathblade!

[rose jewel]

You have some AoEs that clear big amount of monsters

Have you checked your class guide in nexus

There is a specific "chaos dungeon" build

[tame solar]

oh wait i mistook it for something else... thought it would be the solo boss thingy

[alpine anvil]

this roll is junk right

[rose jewel]

Also, are you able to use engravings now? You prob should

[rose jewel]

Are you a sup

[alpine anvil]

nah

[rose jewel]

Then reroll

And no it's not trash

[obsidian valve]

I'd love that for my bard

[rose jewel]

It's goated, for sups

[alpine anvil]

ah ok ty

[tame solar]

uhmmm... what are engravings again?

[rose jewel]

Press P

[tame solar]

havent been playing for 3+ years so im starting it all over!

[rose jewel]

Engrave tab

[tame solar]

oh yes, i do

had them for a while now

[rose jewel]

Select pre emptive strike and..... Raid captain

I think you can use 2 at that stage

Or contender I think, any works

Then

Go to your ark passive window

It's under your weapon

You should have some points, go full on spec

[rain pecan]

Is there a particular lifeskill i should be using my energy on as a new player? The stuff for the Orehas I'm assuming?

[rose jewel]

Hmm

[livid fossil]

Well i would just do whatever cause you want level on life skills

[rain pecan]

All of them?

[rose jewel]

Probably a bit of wood cutting and stones so you have mats to later research stuff in your stronghold

[rain pecan]

Also, not super clear to me where I'm supposed to buy better tools. I'm using blue stuff still

where do i make better ones?

[rose jewel]

All mats sell, but if you want maximum profit it depends on whatever the market 's highest value is atm

Probably hunting

[livid fossil]

Blue is fine for beginners

[rose jewel]

You make better ones in your sh

[rain pecan]

I'm untrusted still so no market for me 🙂

[livid fossil]

As do life skills you may or may not get pouches that give you better

[obsidian valve]

SH ftw

[rose jewel]

So never stop dispatching and (if possible) researching, even crafting stuff that costs silver

[livid fossil]

Don’t need kit

Thou

Sh

[rose jewel]

Doesn't matter if you're not trusted, you will sooner or later

[obsidian valve]

Yeah those RNG pouches are helpful

[hardy edge]

Hello, i'm at 1613ish, should I hone now or keep my mats and wait for event next week ?

[vast oriole]

as you want

do you want to make a valkyrie

[rose jewel]

You either use all events on that char, make an alt and use all events on that one or wait to use all events on the new class

Pick your poison

[acoustic basin]

are there any patch notes about akkan progress nerf? didnt find it, I am curious if they are buffing akkan dropping mats or nerfing how much you need for gear

[hardy edge]

Maybe as an alt with the powerpass but not as my main

[vast oriole]

okok is ee

then yeah, wait next week

[vast oriole]

patchnotes on tuesday like always

but they nerf the mat costs for crafting akkan gear

[hardy edge]

Ok i read somewhere on reddit (maybe) that i'll should be refunded on the mats I used before the event, was a lie ? :p

[rose jewel]

What mats, hone mats?

[vast oriole]

if you mean akkan mats, its not confirmed

[acoustic basin]

akkan crafting mats

[rose jewel]

Either you misunderstood or someone trolled you

As for akkan mats, supposedly yes

[vast oriole]

we got that for brel back then

but not confirmed for akkan or aegir

[hardy edge]

Yeah hone mats, maybe i misunderstood then :p

[acoustic basin]

I read there few weeks that they should do 3 week akkan

was not confirmed?

ah wait

youre responding to other person

[tame solar]

anyone want to help me with guardian raids?

[vast oriole]

yes, its liek that in kr and we get that patch nexts week

[acoustic basin]

and do we know number? if I have all akkan gear except weapon and have 11 akkan mats, will I be able to craft akkan weapon next week

without doing hard mode

[outer mason]

sure what guardian raid you need help with?
create a lobby and I'll join

[tame solar]

The first 1-4

[rose jewel]

The mat is basic math

If armor goes 40>30 and weapon 100>75

[acoustic basin]

weapon is 75? oof

[rose jewel]

How many light years would it take superman to fly to the store next town

[acoustic basin]

thats what I was asking, how many mats are needed after nerf

[rose jewel]

Either can solo or just ignore them, GRs are not really needed where you are rn, that or ask in area chat in-game, or in the ocean area chat

Or in your region chat, coz we have no idea where you even play

[wet dagger]

Signum what's your favorite class

I will dedicate my next pass to it

In honor of you always answering my dumb questions ❤️

[rose jewel]

Dragon warrior

[wet dagger]

Ah I see you too are a fan of zerkers good pick

[rose jewel]

?

No

[manic quarry]

Ok

Ommm

[strange viper]

https://tenor.com/view/dragonesti-esti-estinien-ffxiv-gif-11968665633216073913

[rose jewel]

Being honest I forgot the name

What was it

[grizzled hearth]

y cant I tranfer when I have done the mission on the main chara

[rose jewel]

Dragon something

[manic quarry]

https://tenor.com/view/ready-masked-mask-ready-to-fight-gif-15144908

[strange viper]

item level too low

[rose jewel]

The red letters

[manic quarry]

Read the red letters

[rose jewel]

KT is not a powerpass past north vern

[grizzled hearth]

ah

thought it like power pass

[rose jewel]

Well, no

It would be too easy

[livid fossil]

A lot people would be doing that

[manic quarry]

Knowledge transfer is bypassing the questline to continue

Powerpass is bypassing everything up to the certain point

[rose jewel]

And gives you gear

[acoustic basin]

and somehow level aswell, I powerpassed my second character to skip akkan and I got lvl 60

[thorny heath]

yes because

#lost-ark-help message

regular knowledge transfer just puts your character on that ilvl

that's it

that's why powerpasses will cost you 50-60 bucks

[acoustic basin]

what, knowledge transfer dont put you on any ilvl, just skip story

[vast oriole]

it doesnt, you need to be at the ilvl to use kt

just skips story

doesnt give ilvl except north vern one

[thorny heath]

oh what rly

damn

lmao

then it's UTTERLY worthless then lmao

[vast oriole]

well it sjust to skip story

[acoustic basin]

and powerpass is not mentioning giving you free lvls or at least I didnt read it in game

[vast oriole]

always was

[thorny heath]

last time i used was vern

3 years ago

[acoustic basin]

dunno, seems like extreme time saver

[thorny heath]

knowledge might be outdated 👀

[vast oriole]

no

[acoustic basin]

I dont want to do 12 hour story 1-50 ever again

[vast oriole]

it just skip story

always was the goal

[thorny heath]

fair point, i dont wanna repeat it again myself

but knowledge transfer is just a bad version of powerpass

[acoustic basin]

and if you dont want rewards from stories later, its great till endgame it seems

[tame solar]

Im doing whole storyline for the 2nd time its fun

[acoustic basin]

I guess thats why knowledge transfer is almost free 😄

[tame solar]

23 hours in and im in north vern

[thorny heath]

costs a ton of gold when I'm looking at each stage

😂

[acoustic basin]

from zero to max is what, 20k? and what i saw, endgame raids generating 100k+ per week per character

[thorny heath]

nananana

you have to do each step once

cant select mach ilvl and call it

[broken hollow]

if you are poor like me you can run around rethramis for 1 hour killing mobs and it will give you about 5k gold from the adventure tome collectibles

[acoustic basin]

thats why there is from zero to max, from 1580 to 1620 its 200k raw gold and like 150k oreha mats in honing and skipping 1580 and 1600 story is 15k together, thats what I call almost free compared to honing

and thats cheapest part of honing 😄

[broken hollow]

I'm not at the point of gold honing yet, can i tell the game to only use bound gold so it will not let me hone after i used up my bound gold?

[manic quarry]

It'll use the gold bound first

And after that's all used it'll move onto the unbound

[broken hollow]

so it wont let me know i started using the more valuable gold?

[manic quarry]

I mean..... you could just check it yourself

[acoustic basin]

you can open market and always check

[rose jewel]

If you had 10k mixed and you suddenly are at 10 gold that's on you

[acoustic basin]

or hover over gold

[rose jewel]

But yes it won't tell you

[wet dagger]

I wish the game would tell you

Same with using mats for honing

When I hone i want to use my character bound but then it starts using my tradeable ones in my roster storage without me realizing

[rose jewel]

It's not hard to keep track of, besides you were gonna hone anyway, why does it matter if it uses tradable ones

Either store them on an alt's personal storage, sell them or use them, that's what mats are for anyway

[wet dagger]

I'm just tapping rats so I only want to use character bound not tradeable

Tradeable are being saved for my new zerker

[rose jewel]

Why tf are you still leveling rats

[wet dagger]

Like a 1650? To push it to aegir

But i dont want to use tradeable leaps or stones

[rose jewel]

[wet dagger]

I'm ok using abidos and gold cause I can farm them with lifeskilling and raids

Once it hits 1660 it'll no longer be a rat 😤

[rose jewel]

Yes it will

A worse rat at that

The higher the ilv and the lower the investment, the higher the rat meter goes

[wet dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/rat-jammin-rat-jammin-rat-jamming-gif-18426427

[minor igloo]

May the best rat win

[rose jewel]

No one wins, it's a losing battle

[broken hollow]

does this use bound gold?

[outer mason]

yeah it should

[rose wren]

no oldy player will know, require newbies 😅

[broken hollow]

it did use bound gold

[broken hollow]

are these trade merchant contracts worth researching?

[outer mason]

some of these can unlock runes at Mechant Johanna in your stronghold

I think the most important ones are Legendary Judgement/Conviction from South Vern 70% Adventurer's Tome

[manic quarry]

Some focus

Or was it wealth

Sorry leg wealth is a collection thing

I was chasing leg Overwhelm before in early game

[rain pecan]

Another question. Some of the solo raid guides I'm looking at state to NOT take a buff, but don't explain the reason why? Is this a thing, or what am I missing

[rose wren]

look at the merchant first before researching, if u can buy them already

[rose wren]

no idea which that be, most recom yt guide is deathboi

[rose jewel]

I think** he explains that it's up to you or something

If they just say don't but not explain then that's a bad guide already

[manic quarry]

We need some context

[rain pecan]

yeah, tha'ts the guide I'm looking at. He says don't take a buff "especially if you're a back attack character"

[rose jewel]

It's solo, who gonna tell you anything if you do or not

....?

Which guide

[manic quarry]

Huh?

[rain pecan]

Like i'm looking at the Vykas guide

[manic quarry]

Hey uhm

Context please

[rain pecan]

and he says it at 1:05

[manic quarry]

Oh

[rose jewel]

Let me see

[manic quarry]

Just take Run

[rain pecan]

he said the same thing for the first solo dungeon guide, but in neither did he explain lol

[manic quarry]

There's nothing bad about taking one of those buffs if you need it to cover what you're lacking

[rose jewel]

Let me check it

[spring spruce]

oh its a dumb reason

[rose jewel]

Ok he doesn't explain

[spring spruce]

on comments

[rain pecan]

oh

[rose jewel]

Well

[spring spruce]

ngl, that is not a good explanation of why not to take buff if you are learning it

[rose jewel]

Ok that's a bad one

I respect deathboi but that's bad advice

[primal herald]

can i get this from solo mode brelsh or just party mode?

i need to start atleast trying to farm some of these elemental sets

for the tfuture

[rain pecan]

i can't even find that comment. I Ctrl+Fd "buff" lol and all i saw as other people asking the same question. but good to know, guess I'm takign the buff 🙂

ty guys

[rose jewel]

Especially if you're on a support, you HAVE to take true supporter

[spring spruce]

yeah is on the vykas solo guide and had to scroll down a bit

[rose jewel]

The rest is a bit of QoL

So yeah no reason to not take one

[rain pecan]

awesome. my main concern was if I missed out on rewards or something for taking the buff

[rose jewel]

No, nothing

[manic quarry]

Basically your performance in these solo raids with buffs applied doesn't accurately represent how you'll perform in the group raids.

Like your stagger efficiency, move speed, back attacks, etc

Assassins' Red Moon Remains buff is one big example

Free healing

[deft arrow]

Hey everyone… returning player from forever ago.. Is it worth it to enhance from 1560 to get to 1600++or should I wait for a possible pass? A lot has changed, and I feel a little lost 🤪

[manic quarry]

Short answer, it's worth it now

Long answer, they nerfed down the resources needed to hone from 1580-1620 so it's a lot easier and uses less resources to hone

[rose wren]

thought on changing main or not? freebie be about soon

[deft arrow]

I haven’t actively played this game since completing south Vern. Somewhere in between I used a free power pass to bump a summoner alt to Elgacia

[jagged zinc]

It is available in solo mode

[manic quarry]

Besides 1620 can be skipped to 1640

[jagged zinc]

Pass coming soon, probably should use on a different character anyway since you're already progressed on one

[deft arrow]

Thank you 🙏

[fossil path]

Hey all, looking to get back into the game after a good while. Is it feasible to hone from 1506 to 1580 before the patch next week? Assuming f2p. Also unforunately missed ignite server

[deft arrow]

With all the freebies from event stuff I think so

[manic quarry]

That's a long bridge to cross

But doable if you do have the resources

You hone with silver anyway, only thing stopping you would be leapstones, superiors, or jolly ranchers

[fossil path]

I still have a bunch to redeem I think, need to get on and actually gather everything

[manic quarry]

Just remember, only open it if you need it

[deft arrow]

Yea open a little at a time

Use rest on alt

[fossil path]

Do you get many mats from story? I don't remember, I still need to do elgacia I think

[manic quarry]

I wouldn't count on story quests to give you all the mats you need

[fossil path]

Do they give any at all? Or would it be a waste of time to do em atm

Alongside dailies

And solo raids

[manic quarry]

With the timeline you're giving yourself.

[deft arrow]

I think your best bet are dailies and that event …

Story seemed to give nothing compared to them

[fossil path]

Gotcha

Figured as much, just didn't know how quick material acquisition is at this stage for me

And like how urgently I'd need to do things with a week left lol

[deft arrow]

I am right there with you … just purchase the aura resonance from that shop so you can keep on doing chaos dungeons to buy more mats

[fossil path]

Not too pressed about it, got my answer so ty all

[fossil path]

word 👍

[deft arrow]

I just finished Punika and south Vern (again) with a returning friend .. oh man 😩

[raw thorn]

do u have a ton of honor shards?

[manic quarry]

Don't forget you got the Solo Shop that gives you the mats

Blue exchange NPC in town

[fossil path]

370k

I don't think that's very much

[manic quarry]

That's....... not quite much

[deft arrow]

Do all clears yield 100 tokens for a complete?

[raw thorn]

yea def gonna need way more

[manic quarry]

But you should at least do chaos dungeons

[fossil path]

That's shop for solo raids yea?

[manic quarry]

Shop using tokens obtained from doing solo raids yea

[fossil path]

Right

[deft arrow]

I went thru 500k just tapping my weapon from 15 to 20 … 😳😩

Was like… ohhhh this is familiar now…

Fail! Fail! Faaaaaaail

[fossil path]

There are also boatloads of things I haven't redeemed, might have stuff that's exclusively honor shards. Anything that could be redeemed for higher tier mats I'll probably save of course

[deft arrow]

Need to find a guild … most are looking for 1600+ tho

They changed so much.. and next week more changes to come

[rose jewel]

Remember, next week we have a powerpass and an express event, up to you if you wanna use the pass on any character that has not completed south kurzan main story quest

And the express of course should go to whoever you want to main and hone first to end game

[fossil path]

Considered that, I think I'm planning to use that on valk though

[rose jewel]

Do note as well that we will get a new class in august, and these events were supposed to go with her, but the events got moved from Aug to Jul

Class will still release in Aug and she won't have more events, these were her events

If you want to hone Valkyrie to the moon then do not use these events and wait

If you don't care about her feel free to use them now, huge boost

[broken hollow]

Are hit master classes stronger in solo mode? cuz i was chasing ass all the time on my slayer

[manic quarry]

You mean easier to work with

To efficiently push damage

[broken hollow]

i guess yeah cuz you always have the agro in solo mode

[rose jewel]

Won't say stronger, just less annoying

[fossil path]

I thought there was still one more event that was coming alongside her release, do we know anything about it?

[broken hollow]

afaik its the same as the current road to act3 event

[fossil path]

Dunno much about that

[rose jewel]

Probably similar to what we have now, an event aimed at mid-advanced players, not new ones, starting at a high enough ilv

But ofc we have no idea until patch notes

[fossil path]

Ah okay

[rose jewel]

It will NOT be a new powerpass nor express

That is 100% out of the table

[fossil path]

My dreams, crushed

[rose wren]

path been like after uve finish express

[rose jewel]

Just buy a pass, whale it out

[fossil path]

The true lost ark way

[broken hollow]

i think valk looks super cool but im new and its kinda hurtful to save the pass for a month and miss out on all the progression i could make in that time so I might just use it on another class and make a valk alt to raise myself

[rose jewel]

You can use the pass, do solo raids and gather event materials and then boost valk fast out of the dead zone with those resources and use the express on her

Or buy a pass for her

Do some story manually (or KT) and it will cost less the more key continents you finish

[rose wren]

like the reason is stated in news, its nothing hurtful

[fossil path]

I think that's what I'm gonna do. Taking this week to get reacquainted with the game, then just use the pass on my main next week and hit the ground running

As far as my broke ass can carry me that is

[muted thunder]

oh ok thank you veru much !

nice thank you veru much

[outer mason]

try in #gallery-discussion

[stiff flower]

oh thats where i can discuss this type of thing, i overlooked it, my bad

[pure basin]

did kr get the solo mode aegir release already? if so do we know whats new in the solo mode shop

[vast oriole]

yes

memo has a video on that

[pure basin]

thankz

[dusky lark]

how do we claim the new power pass thats coming next update?

or is it just given to us?

[vast oriole]

its given to us in the char selection screen

[dusky lark]

as long as youve played before the event comes out its auto put into your account?

[rose wren]

yea its automatic

[vast oriole]

its for everyone

even if you didnt play

[dusky lark]

ooo okay okay thankl you

[vast oriole]

UNLESS

they put powerpass behind trusted status

but we wont know till we get it

[dusky lark]

whats trusted?

[vast oriole]

shitty system

if you have this in green, you are trusted

if its grey, you dont

[rose wren]

something to fight against bots/etc but failing

[broken hollow]

isnt it just a steam thing about needing to spend money on your steam account

[dusky lark]

but if me and friends made our accounts on launch we should be trusted right?

[rose wren]

no, it can vanish, just check if u still have it

[rose wren]

no, thats all dated info, dont follow that

[vast oriole]

?trusted

[buoyant dock]

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

[vast oriole]

couldve lost it with time

[broken hollow]

thats such ass lmao

[dusky lark]

gotcha ill make sure we sort it before the pass comes out

[vast oriole]

well there was much more bots when it was just spending $ on steam

[dusky lark]

thank you for the all help with the questions <3

[broken hollow]

i get they dont want to say the exact way to get it for bots but that sucks so hard

[vast oriole]

just so you know, new class comes in august (female paladin) anmd the powerpass we get next week can be used for it aswell

so if you want to do a female paladin, dont use it next week, you will need to use it only in august

[dusky lark]

the power pass is limited?

[rose wren]

all events+powerpass r all related to new class

[vast oriole]

what?

[livid fossil]

Lot more bots

[vast oriole]

you can powerpass only 1 character with it yes

[dusky lark]

i meant like is the time limit to use it mb?

[vast oriole]

no

i mean pwoerpass usually can be used for 3 months

[rose wren]

powerpass will expire

[vast oriole]

what i meant is that we wont get another powerpass in august with the new class release

[rose jewel]

The answer is yes arna

[vast oriole]

so if you want the new class, you need to wait august

thats all

[rose jewel]

It is limited

Not no

[candid lake]

I just saw

a support using3 atros

[candid lake]

https://tenor.com/view/police-coco-jaw-drop-skeleton-shocked-gif-15485742

"used for 3 months" is like, I get the idea of using it as many times as you like

Which is a no

[vast oriole]

.

[rose jewel]

Yeah after all that

[rose jewel]

A hair first used for the new class won't release until the new class?

[vast oriole]

this guy recommends using the powerpass to grind the event and collect materials to then boost the valkery if you dont have 3 characters at 1580.

is that a good idea or not enough enough materials in the event

[vast oriole]

there wont be 2 powerpasses

[rose jewel]

Personal opinion, very personal, don't listen to that guy

[vast oriole]

and idk what he means

grind the event ?

then boost valk

[rose wren]

ignore charac amount

[livid fossil]

Most of my classes are up to 1580

[vast oriole]

its only 1 powerpass

[broken hollow]

uhm I think he means you can grind the bosses and everything going on and all the events for a month to gather materials for valk and that way new player can have 2 1580s instead of waiting 1 month and have 1?

thats how i understood it

[candid lake]

but then

you have to grind

t1 to 1580

and tose mats will make the grind even longer

i think

[vast oriole]

but how you will have 1580 valk ifd you dont use powerpass on her

[candid lake]

unless if you pay for a powerpass

[vast oriole]

u will grind since the start? not a good idea

[rose jewel]

If you do indeed want a Valkyrie you wait for her to use everything

[queen dove]

Anyone know what the bottom costume piece is called for males that gives them the dragonsacles on their legs

[livid fossil]

Shift G brother

[vast oriole]

any screenshot?

[rose wren]

seek #gallery-discussion

[rose jewel]

The armors alone take 2+3+3 weeks of crafting

[vast oriole]

and yeah, better to ask the fashion nerds

i know female skins, not male ones

[livid fossil]

Sadge

[rose jewel]

So you will need to wait around a month and a half at least to even get the akkan armors needed to hone further

It's very bad advice, like the only vid I saw from him

[queen dove]

will do

[rose wren]

whos out there believing getting 2powerpass?

[livid fossil]

[vast oriole]

ags already said we wont

[rose jewel]

Did he actually say we get 2 passes tho

I am not going to watch that shit

I just want confirmation

[livid fossil]

[broken hollow]

no, he says you use the pass on someone else so you can gather resources in the end game and in the maharaka festival then you hone and knowledge transfer the valk when it comes out with all the resources youve collected in that month

[violet forge]

Can someone help, I payed £8 to change my character but I thought that meant I can make my character look like the ones in style book

Why won't it let me do that

[vast oriole]

you still need to hone and get the armor sets that will take you more than a month to get...

[rose jewel]

He never took into consideration the whole month and a half+ it takes to get her out of tier 3

[vast oriole]

so no, its a shit advice

[rose jewel]

Shit advice really

[vast oriole]

you need to download the style book preset and apply it to your char

[violet forge]

I did

But it only changes the fact

Face

[vast oriole]

well yeah

[violet forge]

I want the whole look

[broken hollow]

he says just the pass though, and save the express event for the valk just use the pass so not getting 2 chars to t4

[violet forge]

Like my char is female I want it to show more revealing

[vast oriole]

if you mean the skin, you need to buy it

[violet forge]

Atm the armor blocks everything

Idk why

[rose jewel]

You can gather and use mats now to get to 1580 (at most) and then start beating akkan+Brel+kaya for gold gain

[vast oriole]

you wont get the skin by using a preset

[violet forge]

I see others

[timber mauve]

You gotta buy the skins too

[violet forge]

Who are similar level

[vast oriole]

you need to buy the skin

[rose jewel]

If the passed character will stay forever in t3 even worse, it's bad value

[violet forge]

Oh in store

[timber mauve]

Yeah

[vast oriole]

either store or market

[timber mauve]

Either the cash shop or the market

[violet forge]

OK well I wasted money on character change now

[livid fossil]

[violet forge]

😦

I like the bug mount it look cool

Btw what happens when you complete the game?

[rose jewel]

....?

[violet forge]

I just saved luterra

[rose jewel]

It's......

A live service game brother

It will never end

[vast oriole]

thats the beginning of the game

btw

[rose jewel]

Live*

Stupid phone

[manic quarry]

Love service game

[violet forge]

Well there Is a main story right

[livid fossil]

New one

[violet forge]

So I guess over the years they added more stuff and it built up

[rose jewel]

Which is not even close to ending

And they can put whatever bs to make it longer

[manic quarry]

The main story is finding the Arks to use it against the rising demon forces

That's pretty much it

[violet forge]

No one talks in the game too

Everyone doing own thing

[manic quarry]

The subsequent stories that runs along together with it, provides a different twist

[rose jewel]

If you're new then there is no one on the continent

Or they just don't and they talk on discord

[livid fossil]

Why do people need to talk

[rose jewel]

This is not 2010

[rose wren]

the chat is restricted to area, not global wide

[blissful solstice]

is there a returning char guide?

[manic quarry]

Why would anyone go out of their way to talk to others when they're doing there own thing or looking at something offscreen at the same time

[manic quarry]

Unless someone needs help then it's otherwise

[blissful solstice]

thanks !

[violet forge]

The game gave me so much money

At beginning

I have mb 6 million silver coin

And level 27

[rose jewel]

That's cute

[rose wren]

game is not a finish product unlike final fantasy online

[manic quarry]

Just 6 million?

[livid fossil]

Chat is mostly looking for groups for CG and feild boss

[violet forge]

I also explore everything

I go round whole area

Kill the small bosses

[broken hollow]

I also thought i was rich and then i started going through a million silver a day on the wandering merchants

[violet forge]

I don't go straight to objective

[manic quarry]

Yeah we honestly don't need to know about that

Everyone does that

[livid fossil]

lol

[rose jewel]

Anyway

[livid fossil]

Adventure tomb cooking

[rose jewel]

Back to the events topic

Save everything for Valkyrie and just normally hone up to 1580 whatever char you have and are honing rn

[livid fossil]

Great way to blow silver

[manic quarry]

Running your wandering merch cards is also another way to blow silver

[rose jewel]

Blowing the pass rn is bad coz you have to wait, forcibly, almost 2 months on Valkyrie waiting for armor sets to even get to t4

[manic quarry]

If you need it

But you need all the cards from the wandering merch anyway

[rose jewel]

No full use of the events for a long long time

So the advice on using the pass now is shit

That's about it

[broken hollow]

yeah that probably would be better unless i whale a second powerpass which i think is a waste of money so beetter to save it

[livid fossil]

Merchants especially the rare cards silver eaters

[rose jewel]

And this is my personal recommendation but really don't watch that dude's videos

You have a lot more opinions in here

And if someone spots something wrong we call it out

[manic quarry]

Getting information from content creators is a big no no

[fossil path]

Is the time frame for any events that are coming next week but were originally planned for August the same? Or extended by a month?

[manic quarry]

Except for memorizer

[rose jewel]

Memo is goated with the guides

[broken hollow]

yeahh watching the video more he says its because the maharaka festival is also coming at the same time so you want those rewards, but im already 1430 on my slayer so i think i probably got enough for the event lmao

[rose jewel]

And the inven posts

[rose jewel]

We don't even know the maharaja will have an ilv restriction, and if it does which ilv

[rose wren]

i think its u get a month extra since its early than where it was suppose to be

[broken hollow]

yeah and the biggest thing is still the armor. i also didnt think of that

[rose jewel]

Everything about that video is just misinfo or lack of

[broken hollow]

i kinda forgot the crafting items are bound

[rose jewel]

It's what you get from people wanting to do something really really early with no clear info on anything

Just for the easy views, pure bait

Fuck those people

[vast oriole]

it will last some time anyway

[broken hollow]

so just the same as the news right now XD

[rose jewel]

Basically

And if you watched the news you should have your own opinion

And if you lack info ask here

[manic quarry]

Don't assume anything until there is real confirmed information from the publishers themselves

[rose wren]

solo medal r roster storage exchange pieces to craft armor.

[manic quarry]

Not the kickstart twitch streamers

I can't emphasize this enough. People really think content creators know it all

Why are they called content creators

[rose wren]

tierlist and such r pure trash, damn those so call content creators

[rose jewel]

They follow all advice blindly without questioning it

Or at least a lot do

[vast oriole]

saint is pretty knowledgeable tho

but kinda the only one

[rose jewel]

I do put saint on high standards

[manic quarry]

I mean I know Saint knows his stuff, he has data and shit to back it up

He does research

[rose jewel]

Dude actually knows his shit

[manic quarry]

What did stoopzz do?

[rose wren]

like content creator r some form of street performers/clowns/etc

[rose jewel]

I actually got some nice Intel about the servers from him ytd

Supposedly lost ark uses a very specific kind of server or something, so they can't just move it around or host the game somewhere else willy nilly

Like a central NA so everyone gets minor ping spike/dif

[broken hollow]

I always hear these things about NA but how come EU never has these complaints about ping from people living in like portugal or sth

[rose wren]

EU was 2region

[manic quarry]

NA had three regions before

[rose jewel]

Was 1

[broken hollow]

I'm in Belgium so i get like 14ms in every game but be it league or lost ark theres always a region of na complaining about having bad ping

[timber mauve]

There are a lot of AUS and SEA players on NA

[rose jewel]

Because those aren't people living in America/NA

[timber mauve]

And they got shitty ping everywhere

Well, more so AUS

[broken hollow]

its gotta suck to be born in oce, almost no game wants to make a server for you

[rose jewel]

NA had SA servers before, Amazon said fuk'em that it wasn't generating enuf resources but they didn't want to blatantly cut them out, so they fused SA with NAE

[rose wren]

supposedly theres tech to somehow to make worldwide network even faster but still in dev

[vast oriole]

because its not a big diff since servers in eu are in germany so pretty much central eu

[rose jewel]

And now NAW (very low pop compared to the other 2) will be merging with NAE, but by doing that OCE/AUS players will get a higher ping

[vast oriole]

while for na, theres in east and then west

so way bigger diff

tho ping doesnt matter too much in this game
i play euc from nae and i have no issues

[broken hollow]

so its more like if the EU servers would be in Moscow right?

[rose wren]

im the opposite of arna

[thorny heath]

way further, you wouldnt feel a difference rn

[vast oriole]

yes

[rose jewel]

And people are fighting over if SA should get higher ping to save AUS/OCE players from having an "unplayable" game or if they get the middle finger and not fuck up SA twice

[manic quarry]

I forgot SA region had existed

[vast oriole]

distance between nae and west is kinda like from portugal to moscow

[manic quarry]

Before it got eaten by NAE

[thorny heath]

https://www.meter.net/tools/world-ping-test/
check here for example

these are my results from nuremberg, germany

[manic quarry]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/366111733879799812/1274580270942785567/runv.gif

[rose jewel]

I dodged a whole nuke by not playing on SA servers initially

[blissful solstice]

didnt there used to be a character storage?

[rose jewel]

And then got shot in the foot by playing NAW

[rose wren]

only for merge

[vast oriole]

mine

but like 110 is whatever on a pve game

as long as its stable

[manic quarry]

Erm

they dont remove leg books

they remove blue

[rose jewel]

Epic is removed

if any1 looking here and thinking its not #lost-ark-help because of the things u see above, it is help channel

[fossil path]

Does Adventurer's Path still only cover story events up through Shushire?

[bold geyser]

are people still buying relic t4 accs?

(not sure how many of these are real purchases and how many are rmt)

[outer mason]

I sold some T4 relic acc recently
they didn't take too long to sell too

[broken oyster]

is it worth honing t2 to lvl 10?

to get the item lvl for new continents

[thorny heath]

more info

is that your first time

is it your main character

[broken oyster]

yes

yes

[thorny heath]

then yes

i mean otherwise

how else would you progress

[broken oyster]

yeah, true

i saved all puches, chests and everything else bagged lol

[thorny heath]

generally a good idea if you aren't sure

did it like that myself

but let's just say it's safe to hone up until 1580

since it doesnt cost you (much) gold

[broken oyster]

now i opened 3-4 pouches only and got all gear on minimum +5 and then three of them +10

[broken oyster]

i save all and then whatever is mentioned in game, i do a research before i waste it lol

[thorny heath]

generally speaking

https://maxroll.gg/lost-ark/resources/gear-progression-guide

you can follow the progression guide here

[broken oyster]

okay, so hone all good equipment to reach needed levels for more progress?

oh okay, thanks man! appreciate it

[thorny heath]

it's categorized pretty well

can't go wrong with this

tells you which set to upgrade to what level

[viral egret]

Hello, I'm looking for an anime character to create for the slayer, do you have any idea of any skin that can be use to make an anime character ?

[thorny heath]

(after a certain level you either get a new set, so youi would waste further honing or at some point it's better to transfer to a new set, but you keep the levels blablablabla)

in the new video where she says they made some improvements to solo mode for those who need it the most. does she mean its getting easier for people who cant clear them? or what does it mean

[manic quarry]

Valtan Freefall is gonzo

[bold geyser]

claymore is definitely gonna get a ton of mileage when valk comes out

[broken oyster]

Thank you very much!

i really enjoy game, although it seems dead online

[bold geyser]

supposed to be, yeah, i dont know if they've given any specifics

[thorny heath]

early levels and content are definitely a wasteland

you'll barely see anyone around

active area starts with content at ilvl 1600+

and it's most active at 1660+

[broken hollow]

ive been seeing lots of new players in Ratik but not enough to do any of the dungeons or stuff

[thorny heath]

no incentive for veterans to go anywhere

or do any dungeons

[broken hollow]

at least up to where im at now

[bold geyser]

theres been a ton of new people either coming back or starting up

[thorny heath]

not like it does anything

[bold geyser]

not sure why

[thorny heath]

all other games are garbage

and it's been long enough to "check again"

but tbh whoever returned, didn't stick around

[bold geyser]

sure, sure 😄

[thorny heath]

helped dozens of people, but they play like for a week or two, then it's "ah yes, the lost ark grind, goodbye"

[broken oyster]

😄

happens bro...

i am playing it actively so far

[thorny heath]

you are playing, but what does playing actively mean

did you play passively

[bold geyser]

all games like this have some sort of grind, its whether or not the particular lost ark one is tolerable or fun

[thorny heath]

it's also like

super too much

no matter what event they put in

learning curve is so freaking high if you join

and then you get powerpassed

and then you have to learn 3 billion things

and your first raid is god damn thaemine

LMAO

[bold geyser]

really dont like the first boss of thaemine

a lot of gotchas

[thorny heath]

but then again

the amount of times i've installed csgo

because i have a shooter itch every now and then

i join, get shit on

i uninstall

or the temptating of league

[bold geyser]

it do be like that 🙂

[thorny heath]

see a fun video

play a round- get shit on, uninstall
