[vast oriole]

raids are all region

no

[rose wren]

?region

[buoyant dock]

Cross Server (Region wide)
Raids, Dungeons, Ebony Cube, Chaos Gates, Auction house, Friends List, Character name, PVP arenas, Strongholds, Adventure Islands

Server Specific
Guilds, Islands, Open world, Life skills (professions)

Nothing is Cross Region

[lime beacon]

Server doesnt matter at all if you want to raid with the homies

[minor igloo]

but field boss and logging with the homies

[lime beacon]

event minigames with the homies

[minor igloo]

giving random red stones in stronghold to the homies

[rose wren]

red stone...

[livid fossil]

Not the homies

[minor igloo]

or sometimes, i just randomly open a trade to give 1 leapstone to a homie

[brazen moon]

damn 50 bucks if i want to powerpass another class

[rose wren]

soon another freebie powerpass, if u havent seen

[brazen moon]

I only had the one

[steel needle]

hello guys i just started the game a few hours ago with power pass i got hte standard gear with that as lvl 1585 i want to know what to grind for now apart of chaos dungeons as I totally got no clue where to go and how to get my gear to t4

[brazen moon]

Go grind gold

[rose wren]

use express event and follow that, some video guides on more stuff, 1 moment

[lime beacon]

The 2nd free one comes next week

with valk can use it on any class though they said they would do a 2nd free 1585 pp because of all the new/returning players

[steel needle]

will look into that thanks

[brazen moon]

Oh right on

[steel needle]

if only i knew where to go lol

[rose wren]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6c9HLQ6Hng&pp=ygUPZGVhdGhib2kgcmV0dXJu

[brazen moon]

i been doing legions

[tepid ruin]

some advice, i plan on making a valk and haven't used the chanllenge event, but i also made i new alt to play, is it a waste to use the this event on this alt rather than the valk? i know its more of a personal thingy but still.

[lime beacon]

your valk would struggle to get up to 1660 compared to the other one

so if you want to main valk/make her a high alt use it on her

[rose wren]

express event into road event, its tough going straight to road

[brazen moon]

Any NA westers wanna take on a mokoka

[lime beacon]

i did all my raids already except for one mordum otherwise id say yes

[brazen moon]

Well lets roll mordum

[frosty osprey]

how do you unlock advanced honing?

[manic quarry]

Take you on in a PvP? Sure

[lime beacon]

lol my mordum group is a static guild run

no spot

[brazen moon]

I will just pretend i know what that means

[lime beacon]

means all eight of us run together every week from the guild im in

[rose wren]

defeat Echidna, solo raid

[frosty osprey]

i completed it today and nothing so far

[brazen moon]

Dang I cant even force my way thru these solo raids lol

[rose wren]

accept quest from guide tab in quest journal

[frosty osprey]

Can't. Says I don't have the 'waned desire' achievement.

[lime beacon]

You have to beat gate 1 echidna

challenge echidna does not count.

[frosty osprey]

oh dammit lol

can i do it group or must do it solo?

[rose wren]

u hone to 1640...?

[frosty osprey]

yeah 1655

[lime beacon]

you can do it group but solo gives more gold then normal

so you have to do hard

[rose wren]

but its boundgold

[frosty osprey]

i'll try it solo. the challenge version wasn't so hard.

[mellow mauve]

if you're honing/karma, it's no diff

[brazen moon]

if your na west take me with tou lol

[rose wren]

ofcoz

[livid fossil]

Challenge is SUPER watered down lol

[minor igloo]

solo is free either way as a 1640+

[livid fossil]

Encinada hm was crazy for me

[rose wren]

solo change, so it could be just be the same... or close

[frosty osprey]

yeah all of them have been really easy

[frosty osprey]

free?

[livid fossil]

They made them super easy

Solo not bad

[minor igloo]

on my raccoons, i can basically go phase to phase and even skip the counter mech in g1

[livid fossil]

I can never skip counter phase

[minor igloo]

so i'd consider that pretty free

oh wait, i think on 1640 i didnt, 1660 i started to skip it

[frosty osprey]

i dont even see echidna under solo mode

[livid fossil]

She there

After thaemine

[minor igloo]

alt-q, click echidna, on the center-ish right, there's a solo mode button

you can access her solo mode from her usual raid banner

[brazen moon]

Why cant i stagger this vykas chick

[frosty osprey]

what am i missing?

[lament meadow]

looking for a guild to join im new game im a mage just looking to join a guild that will help me out with the game

[livid fossil]

That last one encinada

Overture

[minor igloo]

Spiral of the Crimson Midnight Sun, yeap

they dont name the Kazeros raids after the final boss

'cause it's basically story titles at this point

[frosty osprey]

Thank you. So do gate 2 and that unlocks advanced honing?

[minor igloo]

waned desire is defeating g1 i think?

[frosty osprey]

ah ok, i dunno why people keep telling me to do echidna

[open heron]

Wait, is it true that in global every raid is easier then KR?

[frosty osprey]

i thought the game in general was easier

like every aspect of it

[open heron]

really? hmm

I heard some people commenting on the dev talk that the act 4 raid is going be very easy on global because of the "lockout"

[brazen moon]

Finally i figured this raid out lol

sheesh but only 280 gold

[sly rock]

i dont see ghin for some reason? im like 1655 rn lol so it shouldnt be an msq thing?

[alpine anvil]

do any events give growth type buffs to AH? or its always the same

not sure if there is any reason to hold off

[rose jewel]

did you fully finish msq on that char

npcs show per char

[rose jewel]

nothing for ah

[livid fossil]

G1

[brazen moon]

Oh this saydon guy is crazy

[rose jewel]

if youre helping new players, type the names the correct way, we can meme all we want but they dont know full names nor where the raids are

[brazen moon]

I do not want to mess with this at all

[sly rock]

yea D: i did rimeria msq with this character

[rose jewel]

show the list of quests on the first tab

[wooden swallow]

I don't think that's the final quest.

[sly rock]

oh

[rose jewel]

that is not any msq

scroll up

[sly rock]

i guess i got this quest from opening an item that gives me the quest and i didnt read the red text since i was just mass opening quest items

nah it's this, i abandoned it and hes there again

but yea here tho just in case

[rose jewel]

that quest used him so he went to the quest

thats how quests work in this game

as dumb as it sounds

[sly rock]

[minor igloo]

Because the final boss is named echidna. We call the raids by the final boss's name

Same as why we'd call the abyssal dungeon Kayangel, instead of eternal cradle of light

I think the only raid we didn't reference the boss was Ivory tower/voldis

[autumn dagger]

Expection was voldis raid, none called him a by a boss name but just voldis

[minor igloo]

[autumn dagger]

[mellow mauve]

kayangel is the actually name of the place the raid is taking place in

[minor igloo]

Actually Kayangel is just the ark from the story, and the arena is still called eternal cradle of light

[minor igloo]

Was lauriel just called lauriel in g3

[muted thunder]

Guys, help me please, I'm afraid of doing something wrong here lol so how do you transfer the refinement? And why does tier 3 +19 go to +10 in tier 4?

[minor igloo]

It's been too long

[muted thunder]

first time here

[rose jewel]

just do it

[mellow mauve]

ye

[muted thunder]

in roning

[rose jewel]

obligatory progression

[pliant arrow]

just did aegir solo for the first time. is this worth / are hellfire keystores important?

[minor igloo]

Because you're transferring tiers. Ilvl carries forward

[autumn dagger]

Because u changing tiers

[mellow mauve]

yes

[rose jewel]

very until you have your full set of armors at ancient

[minor igloo]

If you're soloing the whole way, you can skip out and still buy from solo shop, but it slows down your upgrade process

[pliant arrow]

when do you get ancient gear? 1680?

[autumn dagger]

Important, u crafting a armor pieces, which gives u more ark passive points. Which allows to unlock more power.

[rose jewel]

at the ilv you are rn

go craft your first piece/s

[minor igloo]

You get ancient by getting the pieces from exchanging the aegir mats

[autumn dagger]

Armors 1660, accessory 1680

[pliant arrow]

oh i see i see

[rose jewel]

and get the 20 mats from solo shop

[muted thunder]

nice thank you

[muted thunder]

thank you very much

[frosty osprey]

thanks for the tips guys

got through the 1st gate no problem

should i do the allied forces blessing chest?

[autumn dagger]

What is it?

[livid fossil]

The extra reward chest

[autumn dagger]

U mean gates additional box by purchase

Ahh

Ok

[livid fossil]

Does the challenge give you enough

[rose jewel]

providing pictures is always easier for us to identify the items, coz some items have weird ass names and we dont know everything by the exact name

[cobalt edge]

do gems apply for paradise? 😮

[autumn dagger]

Up to you, but i recommend to buy it for faster mats gather

[autumn dagger]

No

[autumn dagger]

Ahh wait it's echidna

Then guess no

Unless u want faster to unlock advance honing 1-10

Idk

[rose jewel]

the express indeed gives enough eyes to get the whole 1-10, or should

and by the time he tries 11 to 20 he already bought a good amount from solo shop or got some from the raid

leaf life is good

so no, dont

[autumn dagger]

Yeah not worth to buy boxes

Only Aegir Solo / NM / HM till u will have 5 armor pieces

[brazen moon]

What do i even do with these if i cant fuse them?

[rose jewel]

bound= trash

tradable like the 3 and 1 = keep fusing up

[autumn dagger]

Right click>destroy

[rose jewel]

just drag them out of the inventory

[brazen moon]

Much love

[rose jewel]

makes your life easier

[autumn dagger]

Yeah, even now when u can just buy t4 gems

T3 is useless

[cobalt edge]

suggestion to store all the ones you can fuse in the different box before you destroy them

[autumn dagger]

[cobalt edge]

so that you don't destroy useable gems

[autumn dagger]

And yeah destroy only non tradable ones ofc lol

[cobalt edge]

they sort together, which is annoying 😛

[frosty osprey]

advanced honing doesnt increase ilevel?

[minor briar]

just tempering? no

actually have to get it to lvl 1

[frosty osprey]

what's the purpose of advanced honing? which should you prioritize, regular honing or advanced?

[mellow mauve]

every level is 1 ilvl

[frosty osprey]

im sorry, i dont know what you mean by this

[mellow mauve]

every level of advance honing is 1 ilevel

you go up 1 level, you go up 1 ilvl

[frosty osprey]

ah i see now ok

so i should prioritize regular honing over advanced?

is one more effective than the other?

[rose jewel]

pinned message on when to do which

[frosty osprey]

i guess i kind of understand it

not always easy for a newer player

but i'm 1650 and i have the new gear from the challenge (already transfered)

so i guess advance hone from here

[brazen moon]

Sheesh this kayangel solo challenge is rough lol

[frosty osprey]

from challenge express? what part are you struggling with?

[brazen moon]

His mechanics i think I need to watch a video

[rose jewel]

eh, no

what honing level is your armor

honing, not advance honing

[frosty osprey]

1 piece is 13, everything else is 12

[rose jewel]

what does the pinned message say

so i know you're looking at the right one

[frosty osprey]

regular hone to +14

i think lol

[rose jewel]

correct

just follow that

[frosty osprey]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-r5WqAlBrw

the challenge is just gate 3

[wet dagger]

is this correct? you get more from doing solo raid then normal for echidna

[minor briar]

all bound tho

[rose jewel]

hard 9k?

that seems wrong

[minor briar]

16k

[shadow pasture]

its split tradeable and bound

[rose jewel]

you can just check ingame

it tells you every single detail of gold obtained

oh ok the ss is cut

FUCKS sake why do they always cut it

[shadow pasture]

https://tenor.com/view/jujutsu-kaisen-jjk-itadori-yuuji-itadori-yuji-toudou-aoi-gif-20447013

[minor briar]

wat r u saying signum..

its 7+9

[rose jewel]

you dare to use my own spells against me

[shadow pasture]

sorry i wanted it use it atleast once

[rose jewel]

yeah i saw the one above and just got confused

and im in a raid

and im a man i cant multitask for shit

[frosty osprey]

the pinned message is also before the new event

i think it might make sense to advance hone from where i am

the game seems to be pushing me in that direction anyway

[minor briar]

??

new event doesnt change t4 odds

the road event does

but its probably gonna be similar costs overall anyways

[open heron]

ok, so he has two big mechanics, afteryou deal some damage some orbs will spawn, you need to drag him to theedgeof the map and make him hit the orbs then attack the orbs and stand in their area of effect ot get the buff that lets you damage him, second mechanic is that he will go to the middle of the map and two spots on the map will light up, go to the one that lights up first and stand in the shadow of the object or he will wipe you, that's it

[frosty osprey]

yeah im just gonna do advanced because honestly i hate the failing lol

[brazen moon]

Ohh okay I was just destroying those orbs myself cause that was the logical thing. Thank you

[frosty osprey]

even if it costs a bit more i dont care

[open heron]

Guys what are the chances the valkyrie path has bound gold in it?

[minor briar]

high

[open heron]

maybe i should withhold my Aegir entry and reach 1680

but that would mean i haveto go into brel normal without my full armor Aegir set

[wooden swallow]

You ain't getting into Brel without full gear.

[open heron]

i will just mokako my way in

besdies how much dps should be i do by normal brel?

[wooden swallow]

lmao

[lime beacon]

i got into a brel last week on one of mokoko alt accounts characters with 4 pieces

[frosty osprey]

what's the best way to get destiny shards?

is there a way to upgrade older shards?

[open heron]

currently?

front and event

[lime beacon]

Kurzan front is your main source of shards and its limited, you cant convert t3 shards to t4 shards

you can get like maybe 120-150k shards a week

[open heron]

the mokoko event has 80

[frosty osprey]

yeah i can use all my leafs i guess

i havent done front yet, i have to figure out what that is

[lime beacon]

its what replaces chaos dungeon for t4

you unlock it after doing north kurzan story

[frosty osprey]

ah okay i gotta finish the rest, i'm almost done

thanks everyone as always for all the help

❤️

wouldn't be loving this game so much without you guys

goodnight

[manic quarry]

North Kurzan msq

[visual oxide]

guys this any good which one i get?

[narrow rock]

After 1640 , Should I focus on adv. honing because of the discount from the pass? or is it better to do normal honing till 1660 still?

[shadow pasture]

better to do norm honing

order is also in pins

[narrow rock]

yep~ i did see that normal honing is more efficient but because of the discount on adv. honing i was not very sure.
Thanks for confirming

[hollow anchor]

can anyone good at maths know if i can save these for reset/valk or expires before?

[minor briar]

just the leftt one

[minor briar]

20th

[pliant marsh]

hey, i havent played in 2 years, which is the most populated eu server? my characters seem to all be on arcturus

[hollow anchor]

would they work until EOD 20th? or expires as 12 am 20th exactly

[minor briar]

its most likely 6d's x hr's x m's left

[open heron]

Should be more then enough

This will last until 21th

[visual oxide]

when to use this?

[open heron]

Tbh, I use them the moment I get them

[shadow pasture]

use it when full grace usaully

[visual oxide]

both blue and this?

[shadow pasture]

ye

best bang for buck

[open heron]

By the way

[visual oxide]

damn just noticed we dont have to ride mount again and again when climbing or going from one place to another

[open heron]

The purple ones lose their value after +10 advance?

[limber roost]

Yes

[hollow anchor]

Ty

[valid bridge]

The amount of times I had to re-summon my mount because I un-summoned it accidentally due to muscle memory after climbing w qol

[open heron]

When do i unlock the cost reduction for crafting for stronghold?

for crafting

[minor briar]

there r researchs for it and structures + outfits in manor to increase it

[wet sinew]

i noticed they send out accesories to alts that reach certain breakpoints to the storage thing... i accidentally threw away some of em... do i get some accesorries at the 1490/1540/1580 breakpoint again ?

[open heron]

what is the max stronghold level?

[minor briar]

70

[minor briar]

mightve been from when ark passive became the main acc system

but no, u dont get them again

[wet sinew]

damnni

[open heron]

are you max level? Iwanna ask for how much do you crraft fusion mats?

[shadow pasture]

im pretty sure the highest cost reduction you can get rn is like -17%

[open heron]

by cost it means purely gold cost right?

not mat cost is there another one that decreases mat cost?

[shadow pasture]

just gold cost

[minor briar]

336 gold per

but i dont have train structure, that might make it lower

[shadow pasture]

yeah 17% is prob max max but thats with bis structures

[open heron]

wait let me check mine

400

is there a guide on this?

[minor briar]

^

[open heron]

i don't know when the research for cost reduction is unlocked

[minor briar]

u can check unavailable researches

[restive shard]

they need to redo paradise. So that your guarantee drops at certain stages

[open heron]

Where do i buy this from?

[shadow pasture]

somewhere in the cookie shop at your pet farm

iirc

[open heron]

where is the pet farm? i don't see in my stronghold

[shadow pasture]

is it locked when you click on teleport

should be labeled farm

[open heron]

i see it

[open heron]

the farm is empty

[raw thorn]

how do i get more high seas coins

i need that purple wealth

😭

[shadow pasture]

any screenshots

[open heron]

nvm i should do pre quest

[shadow pasture]

[shadow pasture]

adventure islands

sailing coops

[raw thorn]

💔

[shadow pasture]

maybe exchange if you havent already

[open heron]

so how do i get cookies?

[shadow pasture]

put the pets to slave labor

https://tenor.com/view/hamster-ayasan-gif-24417537

[open heron]

all of them?

[shadow pasture]

prob locked behind a quest

yeah all of em

and they slowly generate cookies

[raw thorn]

sea bounties are not fun

[shadow pasture]

not getting enough meter cuz of no purple wealth is more unfun

gotta work for it

[open heron]

worth changing?

[shadow pasture]

hell nah

[raw thorn]

yea

i only need 10

[shadow pasture]

the differences are negligible

[ornate sedge]

how long it took to enter guys ?

[patent merlin]

is it good? pred slayer

[brisk topaz]

Pretty solid for a 4 liner

[pliant marsh]

is wardancer hard to play?

[shadow pasture]

nah

you got a set rotation you just repeat till the boss dies

[bold geyser]

(or you do!)

[pliant marsh]

just need something beginner friendly to use the pass on, havent played since 2023 ^^

[minor briar]

u r tho, u get the base mats in any chest

[minor briar]

daily 300 from stronghold, the rest either from coop sailing events or events

[restive shard]

Oh my bad i meant like stage 6 which we are on currently gives you epic and up

[minor briar]

no one does this anymore cuz arkesia tour compeltes it for u

[restive shard]

It should be this way that way we have some progression each week

[minor briar]

ye wd is fine, just gotta stick to a strict rotation

[raw thorn]

thanks

one day i’ll get purple wealth 😭

[minor briar]

its probably better to save ur +1's for last week anyway

[raw thorn]

rapports are such a pain

[minor briar]

with how elys stages r going

[minor briar]

i think u can get enough just from stronghold + ship npc's

• arkesia tour ones ofc

[raw thorn]

I did all the stronghold ones aside from one

and i don’t have enough coins for the ship npcs

i’m only missing like 5 so i’ll probably just end up doing rapports

just a pain

[odd bloom]

does any1 get this problem?

i have been stuck here for 4 hours

[raw thorn]

what server

[pliant marsh]

whats the biggest eu server?

[odd bloom]

NAE - Nineveh

[pliant marsh]

all my old characters got moved to arcturus

[raw thorn]

oh idk then heard balthorr had some problems rn

[open heron]

It feels so weird

thinking if i should push to 1670 now and sell stuff i could use in the future or just wait for next week to push it

[lucid axle]

which ilvl is the strike raid for HM?

[minor briar]

1720

[minor briar]

just wait

[open heron]

missing a normal brel isn't that bad?

[ornate sedge]

is this weapon worth get guys ?

[slate geyser]

it is not.

[open heron]

whales

[slate geyser]

unless you have thousands of dollars

[ornate sedge]

k thks guys

[open heron]

the whales yearn for the spending

[ornate sedge]

oh wait u the guys imma watching lmao, thks for ur video man

[minor briar]

not for the mats u will save, no

[cloud pendant]

where do i get unbound luminous gem?

[open heron]

I am confused by the rection of two youtubers i watch, one said the cube ticket to hell key is amazing and the update is huge, one said its a scam and cubes are more important in the long run, who is closer to reality

[open heron]

the express

[cloud pendant]

express?

[open heron]

they give you full set if 6s and 4 level 7 gems

[cloud pendant]

i see some people having lv 8

[open heron]

i don't know about that

maybe i haven't check the 1680 box well, but it only drops accessory

and you can't combine them i am pretty sure

[pliant marsh]

whats the difference between the growth missions after i activated the pass and got to lv60 vs the challenge express?

[open heron]

the growth if i didn't get them mixed up only unlock after 1640

[pliant marsh]

i have them available right now (asks me to do a chaos dungeon)

[graceful spruce]

is it cheaper to regularly hone from 1660-1680 or with advanced honing?

[open heron]

pins

[open heron]

you talking about the missions that ask you to do solo vultan, Laurieal, Thaemine Eachidna and rraid Aegir?

[outer mason]

Growth Missions are general tutorial missions for new/returning players

Challenge Express are more focused on accelerated progression for any type of player

[open heron]

oh the daily quest lmao

i mix them with growth support missions

how do i get my elixirs to 5 5?

i already have 5 crit i just need to go from 3 atk to 5

[pliant marsh]

this one i mean

[outer mason]

need a bit a luck and a lot of elixirs to cut

[outer mason]

yeah general tutorial missions

[open heron]

is therea guide on cutting?

[pliant marsh]

so i can ignore them and go straight for challenge express?

[outer mason]

if you don't want to do ignore them, go ahead 😄

it's there to help you, but it's not necessary for anything

[outer mason]

https://youtu.be/HIgXSl1ny5I

[icy holly]

does anyone know how long it takes after a character gets deleted for the name to become available again?

[open heron]

I am just so lost by the elixir system

its like the youtuber is speaking in a different language

[outer mason]

the main thing about elixirs is getting 40 points total of all of your armors and having the correct set on your gloves and helm (Luminary for support, Critical/Master for DPS)

the rest is just min-maxxing

[fallen jasper]

Elixirs is rng

[open heron]

I just..

Don't understand

[fallen jasper]

u don't understand language or what?

[open heron]

no i don't understand the mech

Like what i should do i am cnofused?

[fallen jasper]

Your character?

[open heron]

yeah this my character

[fallen jasper]

class?

[outer mason]

each elixir starts with 4 preselected lines and 1 line that you can select
so 5 lines total
once you've selected a line, you're going to refine the elixir to only keep 2 lines at the end
these 2 lines are the ones you're going to equip on your armor

[open heron]

i see... what if i already havecritical?

[outer mason]

If you don't understand, just try a elixir randomly, see what happens, maybe that'll help

[open heron]

from what i understand each armor has a set bonus right?

[outer mason]

yeah if you have the elixir given by the express you're probably gucci

[wet sinew]

does this text indicate that bound gold is used?

[outer mason]

what's the context for this?

[weary oyster]

still rng?

[outer mason]

yes, but it's not as bad as before

[wet sinew]

crafting stuff from stronghold, i thought it uses tradeable gold for tradeable stuff and bound gold for bound stuff

but i m confused that there is no indication which gold is used, unless its the text on the screenshot

[open heron]

gloves and helm already have crit chaos i should aim for master plus 2 atk power to complete a set bonus?

This what i getr the set bonus is all elixirs combined?

right?

[outer mason]

yes that's how it works

[outer mason]

you can't have Critical and Master active at the same time
since only helm and gloves can have set bonus, and both need to have the same set bonus for the set to be active

[wet sinew]

is there a recipe that uses bound gold but normal life skilling mats?

for fusion mats

[outer mason]

you already have a the Critical set bonus (thanks to the Express)
you don't need more, unless you want to min-max

[sterile lance]

so i hit rank 6 on leap, do i just keep tapping enlighten now?

its at 28 because i kept tapping without realizing i hit rank 6

[minor briar]

rank 6 on evo now

[minor briar]

ye, u prob lost a chunk of gold lol

if u want to minmax, up to 24 or 25 is reasonable

anything higher is pretty costly

[sterile lance]

oh right i actually forgot evo has it too

what do you get in evo, just more crit?

[minor briar]

hp

and evo dmg

[open heron]

What does this mean?

[minor briar]

can only have 1 effect active at a time

[sterile lance]

i mean what do i get with the extra points

[open heron]

I am so lost and confused

like for example

atk power

do i get the full set bonus?

i have 3 3

which above the needed 6 right?

is this how this works?

[minor briar]

u can see it in game in the ui

[minor briar]

the video not explain it properly?

5 gear pieces, u need avg of 8 on each to hit 40

AVG, so some can be 5/5 = 10, then anothe can be 5/2 = 7, as long as it all adds to 40+

[open heron]

OHHHH

I think i get it now

max is 50?

[spring spruce]

yes but you dont get any benefits if you go above 40

[minor briar]

any set benefits*

[open heron]

don't tell me, the only reason people go for 5 5 is because of the small stat bonuses?

[minor briar]

small but very cheap

relative to other costs

[open heron]

I see isee

[sacred saddle]

i cant find the guide for the brawl king storm

or something

[dull leaf]

lost ark nexus should have breaker guide, just scroll down to the bk section

[open heron]

It doesn't really matter if i do this right?

[scarlet mango]

why am i not allowed to continue the raid? I left it after finishing the first gate and I thought I could join back, but I guess not

[round umbra]

check mail for a ticket

or inventory

sometimes it takes a bit

make sure to use song of escape instead of alt f4ing after the gate

[lavish mortar]

If you didn't hit the stop button in top left to leave raid then you have to pray you get a ticket

[scarlet mango]

oh shoot alright I forgot they did this,

[scarlet mango]

i hit it I think im good imma look for ticket, thx

[round umbra]

you usually get a ticket

as I said sometimes you just gotta wait a day or two which sucks 💀

[scarlet mango]

alright yeah i think i gotta wait

[lavish mortar]

If you hit it then you wouldn't need a ticket

[scarlet mango]

yeah mb I forgot I quit out twice, 1st time I hit quit 2nd time I think I left the game through menu

I’ll make sure to not do that again

[fallen jasper]

lv. 4 Weapon Power give u more than lv.3

[marsh grove]

is there anything special to making gold with life skill?

just get a good axe and chop in the highest zone available?

went through a whole bar (which is like 3 days worth? maybe) and it was only like ~2500-3500 gold

[true folio]

Where can I find the text style change setting?

[smoky sun]

if cutting trees

esch time you get drops

[split crater]

Settings > gameplay > combat related setting > damage sum font check

[smoky sun]

cancel cutting the tree

and start again

more chance you get the kick skill

[gleaming marsh]

come pm ill show you

the road

[smoky sun]

and get additional drops

[valid helm]

Outside source, needs changing files

[bleak tendon]

will next powerpass drop u at 1640?

[smoky sun]

nope

we get south kurzan one

1585

akkan gear

[acoustic basin]

why did I get this on my character

[bleak tendon]

that is some ancient time item right there lel

[acoustic basin]

ancient? I am playing since june 😄

[bleak tendon]

im just joking it looks like as if its from beta ver of LA lol

[acoustic basin]

I mean it looks like some orehas from T2 or something like that and when I started game, nothing like that existed anymore

[lime beacon]

It is, where did you get it?

because you cant get it anymore

its old t2 stuff

[acoustic basin]

I have no clue, its on my souleater which I created at start of june this year

found it in stash

[prime thorn]

My friends invited me to play the game because of the start of the event, I played for a week and had no problems, I didn't use any third-party programs or anything else, I didn't log in to the game for 3 days, today I went to play, but my account was banned. Please advise what I should do?

[lime beacon]

what does the ban say

not enough information post your reason for ban.
and this is the appeal https://www.amazongames.com/en-us/support/lost-ark/tools/appeal-a-penalty?platform=steam website

a lot of people dont get unbanned but i got my alt account banned a few weeks ago and i got it unbanned in like 15 minutes

[marsh grove]

does anyone know if AH is server bound? or server cluster bound?

[lime beacon]

Ok so when you write your appeal really think back and think about any specific repetitive behaviors that could be interpreted as being a bot

then detail in your appeal that you a real player have carried out every single action by hand on this account, and point out that this repetitve behavior was false flagged

thats how i got unbanned.

if you cant think of a repetitive behavior that got you false flagged you are shit out of luck.

[marsh grove]

doesn't that say that they reviewed your appeal

[lime beacon]

yea you didnt state anything that was repetitive behavior that could have gotten false flagged

[marsh grove]

and the ban stands?

[lime beacon]

i have like one of the very few successful appeals ive seen

[marsh grove]

@smoky sun should I be kicking as much as possible?

[lime beacon]

Yea if you get the appeal denied you are like actually screwed, which is why your initial appeal should be very thought out and crafted well.

[true folio]

What should I do? How does it work?I

[true folio]

I tried it and nothing changed.

[smoky sun]

well you could wait with kicking for 1 or 2 trees

if you get purple one

they give more

but keeping the kick for 5k life energy is a waste

i just kick every tree tho

[acoustic basin]

depends how you lifeskill aswell, I do duo log with leap essence, for me its useless to wait for purple tree

[marsh grove]

im just wondering if theres any trick to make it more profitable aside from having a good axe and being in t4

[acoustic basin]

I saw people hopping on different channels and cutting only purple trees, but that feels tedious for me

and I kinda disliked it, because everytime purple tree grew in my farming route, they sniped it

[true vigil]

is there any known info what the avg material is including the powerpass / event that we get with valk? and last month together? to like 1700? my highest char is 1680 and im saving for almost the whole year 😄

[marsh grove]

I think with playing normally the powerpass with express **puts you to 1640 and the upcoming event will put you at 1680?

not saying it'll be ez tho

[true vigil]

yeah most of the time its just a few taps and then get to the next 10th itemlvl to get a few more materials

[marsh grove]

I Tried it out on a different account tho

and got stuck at 1595 off the express

[true vigil]

yeah i always get stuck because of bad luck^^

but do you get to 1620 after hitting the avg?

or do you had to get much materials?

t3

[acoustic basin]

I mean I tried it on NA server, I had trusted already and knew how to make gold and made it to 1640 after 3 weeks with challenge express and powerpass. Only lucky people with hell keys can do it week 1

[lime beacon]

if you are a fresh account with no gold, no you will run out of gold on avg around 1605-1610 (i tried on my alt account on both NAE and EUC so they were fresh rosters with no gold)

in week 1

week 2 you get to 1620 easy

week 3 is 1660

[acoustic basin]

must be little lucky aswell, I didnt hit 1600 week 1

[true vigil]

nono my account is 8k hours+ and 4m gold just wanna be prepared and not pay like 10x the amunt if prices skyrocket again xD

[lime beacon]

Mat wise it gives enough

[true vigil]

okay thank you 🙂 so 1640 is "kinda safe"?

[marsh grove]

I ran out of mats before 1600

[lime beacon]

did you do all 3 solo mode raids?

[marsh grove]

only including the powerpass

not solo shop or anything else

[acoustic basin]

all solo raids, una weekly gold shop, chaos gate, life skilling

[lime beacon]

i did it on 3 different fresh rosters

2 got to 1605

[acoustic basin]

lifeskilling was meh tho

[true vigil]

what about shards in t4? 1640+?

[acoustic basin]

like 2k gold for 10k energy

[true vigil]

with new char

[lime beacon]

and one stalled out at 1595 but he pittied multiple pieces

[acoustic basin]

yep and that can easily happen to newbie

[lime beacon]

you have to be unlucky to not get to 1600

[true vigil]

i always go for "worst case scenario"... and iam happy if i dont pitty xD

[marsh grove]

what is the 1st raid I'll realistically be able to get bootcamp tokens off of?

[true vigil]

i was stuck every express we had yet. with new chars

[marsh grove]

and how many does it give for the week

[lime beacon]

Shards are still rough the event doesnt give a ton, but ive been helping two different people who are returning from like back when clown released they only have 1 character and they had like no gold from back then

[acoustic basin]

I mean on average, its 45k raw gold and you get 40k from event and solo is like 10K? not big room for error

[lime beacon]

and both of them got to 1660 last week

[true vigil]

with the last month express event?

okay thats nice 🙂

and 1660-1700 boxes juiced or kinda meh again? (shards / abidos)

[lime beacon]

one of them hit 1670 today

this is the 1690 and 1700 box

i dont have the 1670 and 1680 ones picture

[true vigil]

hm 100k shards xD

[lime beacon]

but the 1680 one gives prerolled mid dps/mid supp ancient accessories

[acoustic basin]

holy, where did they got gold for that, I had 300k saved and end up with 100k after 3 weeks and 1670 😄

[true vigil]

thats not even a full pitty ^^

[valid helm]

Pretty sure it’s not allowed to provide within this server

You have to download the file from somewhere and replace

[lime beacon]

The main thing is the karma mats

for getting ahead on brel progression

[true vigil]

ive 3 1680 and didnt even step into brel raid yet 😄

kinda stopped caring

[lime beacon]

You really should the 2nd line on leap tree can change how a lot of classes play/feel

[midnight needle]

i heard that there will be a now powerpass when valkyrie comes out, will the current one vanish then or do i have two?

[true vigil]

yeah but i hoped for solo brel . i rly don't like the gate0 finding a raid tbh ^^ after my group all stopped playing i kinda got lazy and only did solo raids ^^ and saved up for valkyrie because of support+dps

[lime beacon]

you will have two

[dull leaf]

if only considering the abidos from all the current events, is it enough to reach 1680 assuming average luck?

[lime beacon]

you should have leaf status abuse it its really easy to get into parties even undergeared relative to the rest of the party

just find a group without leaf and apply

[true vigil]

is the leaf status per character? because i hit 1660 yesterday after hellkeys with my slayer and i dont got mokoko leaf in aegir lobby

[lime beacon]

its roster wide, and yleaf status should only expire at 1689 or above or 10x clear of brel

[true vigil]

hm...

[lime beacon]

cause i have x17 clears on my alt account of echi and bemo

[true vigil]

is it brel and upwards only?

[lime beacon]

and they still have it there

[lime beacon]

No it applies to thaemine upwards but the 10x clear requirement seems to only be about brel

atleast thats how it is on my alt account

[manic quarry]

Ivory and up

[true vigil]

hm why does my slayer not get mokoko in aegir then? i just hit 1660 did once solo and this week i couldnt find a group because no mokoko

[lime beacon]

are you sure you dont have mokoko?

[true vigil]

yeah

[lime beacon]

like did you try making a lobby yourself

and see if theres a leaf

[true vigil]

i was in a lobby with my friend that has mokoko

[lime beacon]

hm

[true vigil]

i thought, okay i have like 50 kills on my other chars combined

[lime beacon]

oh that may be why

i mean i have x12 aegir kills on my alt but before the event it had only 7

[manic quarry]

You have the weekly solo shop for hellfire materials so you're fine

[lime beacon]

also solo and normal give same rewards

[true vigil]

yeah i know ^^ was just curious why i had no mokoko on my fresh 1660^^

[manic quarry]

Maybe you'll get it back when you get to brel2

I doubt you ever done her yeah?

[true vigil]

yeah only did aegir with my friend because was her first char hitting 1660 and she dosnt want to do raids solo ^^

she survived 😄

[lime beacon]

its account wide, my alt account has iot because it looks like new/returning player cause i only started playing it again after not touching it for months like 2 weeks before the event started

[true vigil]

ah okay

[lime beacon]

so even though i have 10x clears for the lower raids i guess it hits the "returner" requirement

[true vigil]

i just hope i get mokoko for brel and upwards because i stepped foot in it once on release day (brel) and we wiped and group immedialtely disband ^^

[manic quarry]

Classic

[true vigil]

but with my friend that had mokoko, we found a full 1680+ party in not even 2minutes for aegir yesterday...

that leaf is strong

[lime beacon]

well mordum doesnt have it currently

so youd only get it in brel

[manic quarry]

I'm scared with doing nm brel

[true vigil]

me too xD i will just overgear my valkyrie to 1690-1700 and try to find a group that takes me as noob 😄

[lime beacon]

i havent ran into any trolling dps on my alt accounts on brel, but holy my aegirs have been filled with no hand monkeygoblins

[manic quarry]

https://tenor.com/view/jeonqmi-monkey-escape-gif-21816255

[lime beacon]

i was the 1670 SE in this run and i was the "mokoko" cause it was my alt account

[true vigil]

oh wait , i lose the leaf after 1689? in brel right?

[lime beacon]

it has no enlightenment potions

[lime beacon]

correct

[true vigil]

thats so dumb xD

[manic quarry]

God damn

[true vigil]

never did the raid, why do they remove leaf at some itemlvl?

[lime beacon]

like bro how did TWO shadowhunters pull sub 20 mill dps

[lime beacon]

cause 1690 is hard mode for brel and hard mode brel isnt a mokoko raid

simple as that

theres no reason to goto 1690 if you arent going to do HM brel

cause 1680 gets you NM brel and NM mordum

[true vigil]

oh im not interessted in hm raids at all xD

after the old brel im kinda fine 😄

[lime beacon]

HM brel v2 isnt to bad tbh, mechanically its pretty similar with some slight modifications here and there to the mechs, main thing is the DPS requirement and theres some things that will just kill you if you dont dodge

[manic quarry]

Hm brel2 hurts a lot if your supp is um, afking

https://tenor.com/view/empty-headed-baby-grizzly-we-baby-bears-no-brain-dumb-gif-2770554565629813994

[true vigil]

never touched bible anymore after my group stopped playing, i have no clue what dps my chars do tbh^^ got zerk hawkeye and wd on 1680 with aegir gear but no brel upgrades

[lime beacon]

p1 supp doesnt use cleanse when you get darkness and doesnt give any DR so you die to pattern you cant see

[true vigil]

that sounds like, i wanna wait for solo ngl xD

sounds rly unfun with randoms^^

[manic quarry]

Gonna take a year for solo brel2 at this pace

May as well just do brel2 as it is now

[true vigil]

so best i can do is get valk on release to 1689 and stop there to stay in mokoko for brel right?

[lime beacon]

well its more like its just a normal pattern, like she has a normal pattenr where she does these black laser things that give darkness debuff, and when you have darkness debuff you cant see any red telegraphs for her attacks, someone else in your party is supposed to use sacred charm or supp should cleanse so you can see, OR supp can just use their dr skill on the whole pasrty while you ignore all patterns and just dps through it and you are usually fine

it exists in NM to it just is she hits less hard in NM so it doesnt kill you even if supp fails

[manic quarry]

You get hit with darkness and then LASERS AND THEN LASERS AND BEAMS AND THEN PROKEL COMING IN WITH THE ASSIST HE DOES A SLAM DUNK AND PUTS EVERYONE TO THE FLOOR WITH HIS CHAINS

GOALLLLLLL

[frosty osprey]

Are there any cash shop must haves? Like crystalline aura or azena's blessing?

[lime beacon]

crystaline is a pretty big QOL increase ngl

[manic quarry]

https://tenor.com/view/scoring-a-point-major-league-soccer-golazo-goal-tsiki-ntsabeleng-gif-5674878616708604285

[lime beacon]

ive tried playign without it and its pain

[marsh grove]

@lime beacon what are the biggest benefits aside from pet menus on demand

[lime beacon]

fr when you have a whole party of greeders so no one goes for the porokel counter

[true vigil]

omg... 1660-1689 worst case is 25.6k abidos?????? well that will take a bit longer than i though xD

or is there a discount with the event?

[lime beacon]

i mean it is that, like if your gear breaks mid raid you dont have to troll the rest of the group by saying OM "gear broken need to quit out then come back"

[lime beacon]

worst case on every single piece is just as unlucky as it is to be lucky enough to one tap every piece.

[ruby locust]

Is there a way to get rid of these so i dont have to see them every single time i log into a character ?

[marsh grove]

yeah thats one of the pet functions right? was wondering if theres anything aside from that that's worth having from the perspective of an experienced player

aside from pet functions*

[lime beacon]

worst case is fully pitting every single piece from 1660-1689

[true vigil]

avg is 11k and i always lean more to like 75% i avg

so around 15k-20k i guess xD

[lime beacon]

are you just raw tapping to 1680 with the normal honing? remember you AH at 1660 to 1670

[outer mason]

pink + -> need to allocate all your Ark Passive points
yellow thing -> you can disable quest notification by clicking the "speaker" icon in the quest journal

[true vigil]

ive 9k + all event chests since t4 released

[lime beacon]

then you normal tap to 1680

[true vigil]

oh youre right

[lime beacon]

and you ah 1680-1690

[true vigil]

and also books

[lime beacon]

if you just included taps to +20 for 1690 then yea lmao

+20 is high

[true vigil]

yeah i did xD

just did 1660-1690 raw tapping

forgot about AH

[lime beacon]

+19 and +20 basically cost the same amount as +11-+18 all together

[true vigil]

ah 1-10 at +14 and 10-20 at +16 right?

[lime beacon]

correct

[true vigil]

nice thank you^^

[cursive shadow]

Guys a question I just beat the ivory tower portion of the challenge express and it tells me next to learn a legendary engraving
My main currently is wildsoul and i already have grudge kbw cd hit master and adrenaline
What is a good universal one to pick

[lime beacon]

I do want them to release solo mode brel soon though i have 4 alts i dont do group raids on cause i just dont want to gear them and stuff for party finder, but solo modes let me get their raids done in like 5-10 minutes

[lime beacon]

raid captain, tbh it doesnt really matter legendary books are cheap as hell and they give out free ones all the time.

but raid captain

[ruby locust]

ty, the speaker is helpful, but for the ark points, like i have an amount that I cant allocate anywhere, so it is just there and i have to get rid of it every single time ...

it seems just dumb

i cant fckin spend them, stop telling me i have points to spend

[outer mason]

there are points to spend, I swear
check all your tabs, and all your presets
don't forget any side nodes (2 points)

[cursive shadow]

What piece of armor is best to choose for armor transcendence quest

[lime beacon]

You have to do them all

[cursive shadow]

For it do I keep retrying tilll I 3* every piece ?

[ruby locust]

you need 20/21 flowers on every piece, so every level 3* or one 2* at best

[steep roost]

should I be using Glacier / Lava Breath mats on honing or save them for advanced honing?

[cursive shadow]

Flowers ?

Oh

I see

The stars are flowers

[ruby locust]

rule of thumb is to use them only on advanced honing and only with the full orbs buff, but if u have a lot u can use them however u want :D

[steep roost]

thank you 🙂 I am really starved for them, so I will save ..cheers

[ruby locust]

the same goes for the scrolls

use them only with full orbs

[steep roost]

ohhh.. that is good to know.. I have been using the scrolls a lot.. oops

oh wait sorry.. are scrolls different from books then

I am using the books I meant.. gotcha

[ruby locust]

yea the advanced honing scrolls, books u can use every tap

[elder solar]

should i special hone i have concentrated leaps

and gear is like +16 gold bottleneck at 1600ip

[foggy thicket]

If you have special honing materials then use them but the chance is low. You gotta get to +19, one way or another.

[weary oyster]

what max fee for next trusted system? 25% or 50% fee?

[cursive shadow]

The good orb from paradise is of the sacred nature right

[ruby locust]

yes

[manic quarry]

Sacred nature (blue) is your healing orb

[ruby locust]

and the only useful one

the dmg ones are irrelevant

they are like 0.0X % of dmg

[cursive shadow]

Yeah I heard

Just wanted to be sure

[marsh grove]

I can't find my blue quality Faint Ore Charm

🤔

[ruby locust]

look for a "faint ore chest" somewhere, you claimed it from your universal storage

had the same issue recently

it is just a regular box looking

[marsh grove]

havent claimed the 29 pages of stuff in universal storage yet

ty for telling me its in a box

ill look

[ruby locust]

i spend like half an hour looking for the charm and then found the box...

[marsh grove]

got it

That scale includes players as well.

[manic quarry]

https://tenor.com/view/flower-cat-dance-orange-vibe-gif-24887596

[lime beacon]

itll be less though because you use scrolls+full mats on grace on AH

so instead of "optimial materials" put in "full on grace" on AH

probably can use scrolls more frequently to

also are the prices gonna be like 20k?

prob not right?

[lime beacon]

so in KR its like 2k USD per skin

but we may have our prices adjusted down

[void delta]

LMAO

2k ??

wait what is the crystal conversion

[lime beacon]

10% of your crystals but in KR you buy way more RCs in each pack

[void delta]

appaerance ticket costs 10k so for us its prob 1k?

[lime beacon]

like their 100$ pack is 120,000 RCs

where ours is 12,000

[void delta]

roxxy stated on the vid its also 10% for us no?

oh okay i see

[manic quarry]

We're talking about saving at least 30-50k gold worth of abidos, with a good Hell descent with fusion chest @void delta

[void delta]

also i dont get it , if i use every key on my main how are my alts supposed to ever do hell?

[ruby locust]

Depends tbh, i have taken fusion mats and i always double check it with market prices and everytime so far ive gotten fusion mats it was roughly the exact same as the raw gold value

If you dont have gold for taps just get gold

if you need mats get mats imo

[cinder beacon]

hi guys, any help for region lock problem?

[manic quarry]

What do you mean by that

Can we have some context

[cinder beacon]

i cant log in to west server it said region lock

[fickle fractal]

Can someone recommend a reliable Reflux Sorc build.

[manic quarry]

Where are you playing LOA from

[lime beacon]

level 1 hell you get 60 abidos vs 3k gold 60 abidos is worth 6,000 gold, level 2 its 90 with is 9000 abidos vs 4.8k gold

[cinder beacon]

im from SEA

[lime beacon]

it continues like this all the way up

and only gets better for abidos

higher up you go

abidos is always higher value then gold

[void delta]

does it mattere if i go right or left

[manic quarry]

I've saved several hundreds of thousands of gold just from Hell diving for abidos

[void delta]

can i get abidos

from 1580 key?

[manic quarry]

No

[lime beacon]

No

[manic quarry]

Must be at least 1640 key

[lime beacon]

well you get prime fusions

then you can fuse them 5 to 1

[cyan kiln]

Your alts get hell keys from clearing crucible

Hell keys get delivered on weekly reset based on crucible results

[void delta]

thats crazy btw

[balmy gulch]

does this affect your logging or only the stronghold farm collection?

[cyan kiln]

Farm

[lime beacon]

yea and you dont even have to kill boss every week

[manic quarry]

Yeah it can get that bad

[balmy gulch]

sweet ty

[lime beacon]

just doing crucible once in the entire season on a character will give you keys weekly

[manic quarry]

It's pure rng and luck

[lime beacon]

you dont need to run it again

[manic quarry]

Rng is not being very nice to you huh

https://tenor.com/view/destiny-gif-21994457

[lime beacon]

are abidos in your server like dirt cheap? cause for us thats like 50k worth of abidos vs 24k gold, 65k of abidos vs 32k gold, and like 90k worth of abidos vs 44k gold

the abidos in NAW are like almost always nearly 2x in value

[void delta]

i have the healing, whats the next i should get

[lime beacon]

same with the breaths actually cause breaths are like 500 a piece for reds and 200 a piece for blues

[manic quarry]

Vision is good for mobbing / chaos dungeons / Kurzan fronts

[lime beacon]

breaths and abidos are always higher value per item youy get compared to gold

and for 1680 keys the difference is even more

[cyan kiln]

Yeah freetaps are great value

[lime beacon]

because the gold increase per level compared to the increase of the mats you get is bad

[manic quarry]

Yeah. 3k a tap for weapon is kinda nuts

[cyan kiln]

If you run hell keys a couple of weeks you'll definitely have descents where gold is the best chest to pick

So you'll have some char bound gold to hone with as well

[lime beacon]

yua gold isnt bad like i said its probably the 4th or 5th best chest

so theres 5 others minimum that worse then it

[manic quarry]

It really depends on your situation

Whether you are lacking in gold, materials, or both gold and materials

Hi, I'm in a big dilemma. I played for 850 hours straight when the game came out, then I quit before the first big raid came out to Europe. Now, if I were to come back to play Valkyrie, I don't know if I should just create the new character and progress normally in order to experience Elgacia(as I only finished the region before it) and further (the problem is I won't have players to do the raids/dungeons with) or just powerpass to the latest region, miss out on the story, and be extremely overwhelmed with everything given to me. but at least I will be at the same pace with the other players and have players to do raids and dungeons with. Also, I feel like being given items, accessories and everything else just takes away from my experience, as what else do I have to do in the game if I'm already being given everything? What do you think?

[lime beacon]

well you arent given BIS accessories those you stil have to upgrade and theres other progression systems that youll still have to do like karma and stuff

[cyan kiln]

I think you should powerpass valk

And play the story on your old char

[lime beacon]

but if you want to play the story play normally on old character doing story

while you pp valk yee

[cyan kiln]

You will have 3 events on the valkyrie to boost her

Express, Growth and Path

[steep roost]

I have seen the gold sources but for weekly 3 cap, what is the most optimal gold return? would it be to do Echina HM, Behemoth and Theamine HM?

[cyan kiln]

But before reset on wednesday, watch any of the returner videos from Deathboi or stoopz

So you get the lay of the land, so to speak

[sage narwhal]

But isn't it weird that if I DON'T powerpass, I will have to grind and buy the items which powerpass characters get by default?

[lime beacon]

well powerpass itself isnt actually the main thing that gives you stuff its the express event

powerpass just drops you at 1585

[cyan kiln]

You will have to grind but not buy much

[lime beacon]

it doesnt cost gold to hone to 1580

[cyan kiln]

Honing is gold free up to 1580 now

Your limit is orehas

Which you get a bunch weekly from solo shop

Dont stress it, if you wanna enjoy the story keep going with old char

[lime beacon]

the only reason to like not powerpass and keep playing a character is if you want to see the story

you should just also have a valk powerpassed and progressing to/getting hell keys and stuff

[sage narwhal]

well I was thinking of progressing with valk through the story more as in like doing the dungeons too and stuff, but I guess there aren't any more players that do them, right?

[lime beacon]

also all the raids from 1415 up have solo modes

so no group is fine

[sage narwhal]

oh

[lime beacon]

below 1415 though is kinda a dead zone
