is there any way to delete structures from your stronghold? i cant craft anymore because its almost filled and i thought back in the day u could easily just throw them out

balmy plank
#

Nop, you cant

dense sleet
#

gg

jagged zinc
#

craft awnings instead if you need xp

#

or neria's signboards

dense sleet
#

im 99/99 of awnings as well

jagged zinc
#

neria's are the most cost effective, awnings are at the top

rose wren
#

never did that

hybrid light
#

is there a way i can filter to exact effect i want for ability stones in market?

azure lantern
#

As a new player, whats the best way to get some unbound gold so I can start selling on the market? Solo raids/dungeons only give bound gold. And no one is matchcmaking for the group version

lavish mortar
dusky sky
#

should be one on sunday

rose jewel
azure lantern
#

So I cant continue to do any honing til then? cringe

dusky sky
#

that or swipe

dusky sky
rose jewel
#

the express should have given you 1 gold, 1 tradable gold

#

the other 19 or 39k were roster bound

azure lantern
#

I have 0 tradable gold. I must have used it on honing

rose jewel
#

with that 1g you can set something up to sale on the auction house and get some cash

#

well...

dusky sky
#

yeah then you just have to wait for gold island or do a world boss and pray somebody bids

#

on the auction

rose jewel
#

what ilv are you

azure lantern
#

Im doing express mokoko challenge

#

im ilvl 1605

rose jewel
#

far from echidna

azure lantern
#

Unless someone is willing to trade me 1 gold?

#

if thats how that works

rose jewel
#

do you even have trusted status

azure lantern
#

How do I check

rose jewel
#

top right, daily rewards

#

sorry left

#

should be a small icon with a 6

#

meaning 6 rewards

azure lantern
#

No it says im not eligible

rose jewel
#

then you cant even use the market

azure lantern
#

So how am I meant to do any honing to get through this mokoko pass?

rose jewel
#

have you done your 3 gold earners this week, raids i mean

dusky sky
#

play the game more, it'll give you trusted eventually

rose jewel
#

akkan, ivory tower, probably brelshaza

azure lantern
#

Yeah it gives me enough gold to attempt to hone like 3 or 4 times then im out

#

So I just do my 3 gold earners each week then log out and wait?

rose jewel
#

make an alt with the 2nd pass, more gold

#

you can follow this vid

#

basically a degen veteran going from 0

#

a lot of stuff that you dont know how or where or when will be said there

#

but yes the event wont give you literally everything, there will be some waiting time

dusky sky
rose jewel
#

altho

dusky sky
#

get trusted

#

sell mats

#

iirc swiping lets you get trusted faster? not sure

rose jewel
#

1605, did you even finish the 1600 part of the event

#

have you done all the missions on the express

azure lantern
#

yes

#

pitied almost all of my honing

rose jewel
#

did you use the books for every hone attempt

azure lantern
#

yes

rose jewel
#

unlucky then

opal prawn
#

guys, are these bound gems upgradable to t4 later? it's a 1580 key

rose jewel
#

follow the vid and prob you'll have luck in the way to get further

azure lantern
#

I have plenty of everything, just gold locked

dusky sky
#

on a new account

rose jewel
#

dont do that

indigo marten
#

guys whats this?

rose jewel
#

check the other tab

azure lantern
#

also got a billion things to claim here but no idea what to do with it all due to inventory clogging

dusky sky
#

you can hit 1640 in like 3 days

#

if you know what ur doing

rose jewel
#

false, you also need some luck on honing

#

otherwise 100% bricked for the week

dusky sky
#

so reroll until you get that luck

#

if he rerolls and gets lucky

#

he'll be 1640 before reset

rose jewel
#

thats dumb af

#

dont do that

azure lantern
#

why would I reroll when my account has 99 product invent claims

indigo marten
rose jewel
#

a lot of that stuff will be stuff like materials, skins and whatnot

#

impossible to tell from the name of the box or bag alone, hover them and see if you need or want them

#

whatever trash you dont like (like mokoko skins) put them in the storage page 2 or something

#

as for the gold, follow the vid i sent, you have a 2nd pass, you can make a second class and have some fun with it, set it up for raiding and do akkan kaya brel

opal prawn
rose jewel
#

extra gold that may (should) push your main to 1610

rose jewel
#

but out of those 3 options

#

gems is prob the best lol

#

silver is useless and quality taps, unless all your items are still 70 and you dont have a single one more, its probably also not good

#

but yeah no idea, they're prob bound

#

but im not sure on that tbh

#

so dont take my word for granted

opal prawn
#

thanks!

#

its bugged 👍

Leap stone

still hearth
#

Hey, so I've gotten advanced honing and used up all my protection stones, I still have plenty of leapstones and fusion materials for T3, is it worth using my chests for the T3 or now i'm out of prot stones should I just transfer to T4 now and go from there?

minor igloo

#

you need both conv and judg runes, you first cast your skill with conv, if it procs you then cast the skill that has the judg rune, if it procs then you have the effect for 5 secs, and all skills cast in those 5s buff gets their CD reduced and your mana regen increases

#

it has a 30s downtime window

#

but if the judg didnt proc, you can try casting the conv again asap

#

the internal cooldown is for the judg proc

#

honestly its not a rune you should be using if youre new, you wont make the best out of it

#

just run whatever alternative the guide says

foggy venture
#

i get convition but no CDR or buff

minor igloo
#

it is a 2 step thing

#

you need the Conviction rune on a skill and a Judgment rune on another skill

#

then it's just as signum says

does leveling up evolution rank for karma increase blunt thorn damage too?

#

or i guess what is evolution damage

jaunty token
#

is it better for me to keep high/mid earring or sell for 2 lvl 8 gems?

bold geyser
wet dagger
#

but whats it multiply

#

it says it increases evo damage

#

is evo my strenght attack power weapon power?

jagged zinc
#

it is as soc said

#

just another damage multiplier

#

damage multipliers multiply everything

bold geyser
#

would be additive with blunt thorn

jagged zinc
#

it is not a part of strength attack power nor weapon power

#

you know how people say additional damage is additive?

#

its the same exact thing here

#

evo damage is additional damage rebranded

#

evo damage stacks with evo damage and multiplies with everything else

dusky sky
#

too bad I don't have access to LA atm

still hearth
#

So I got the critical T4 Elixir, went with crit since thats my build and only the two of the 5 have piece specific bonuses? helm and gloves. So the last 3 go anywhere since all the effects are general?

bold geyser
#

did you get the free ones from the express?

still hearth
#

yeah

bold geyser
#

p sure they all have slot-specific lines on them

still hearth
#

I done the helm and general on helm and gloves/gen on gloves the last 3 look like this

bold geyser
#

oh oh oh

#

sorry those are an older set

slate geyser
#

That's the elixir box from Rise of the Valkyrie event.

still hearth
#

oh right.

bold geyser
#

really the 4/4s?

slate geyser
#

And yes, it goes in any other slot

#

Chest, legs and shoulders

balmy plank
#

Those ones can go on any gear. For optimal elixirs there are also lines like Boss Damage, Additional Damage etc that are also piece specific.

slate geyser
bold geyser
#

i asked about that 😄

#

in any case, listen to death he's got the right of it

slate geyser
still hearth
#

so are these general ones still just better than the previous elixirs i was given

#

even if they dont have boss dmg etc.

slate geyser
#

Erm, you aren't really supposed to open up both elixir sets they give you.

#

One you save for an alt, the other one on your main.

still hearth
#

ah KEKW

slate geyser
#

Challenge Express is ultimately a better elixir set since it's 5/3 and it's specific-slot items of Boss Damage, Critical Damage, etc.

#

Unless you are a Valkyrie, then that's different.

still hearth
#

yeah im valk

slate geyser
#

Since you can have one support elixir set and one DPS set.

#

In the event that you chose both the DPS sets

#

well, gg

still hearth
#

well gg lol

#

I can't even fathom having 2 sets right now tbh

slate geyser
#

Well it's not a bad idea to have a support build and a dps build.

stark hound
#

is azena's blessing worth buying? i just saw it gives insane stats for newb like me

slate geyser
#

If a lobby needs support, you have the elixir set right. Likewise with DPS.

lime beacon
slate geyser
#

For some it's not, for some it is.

stark hound
#

as a beginner though, doesnt that boost my dmg a ton?

bold geyser
#

good value per dollar tho, i think?

balmy plank
slate geyser
#

It does not boost your damage.

stark hound
#

oh

slate geyser
#

Yea what braden said.

balmy plank
#

You get a food buff, but you can also just buy cheap food and eat it. The food buff isnt a big damage gain or anything

stark hound
#

i see

balmy plank
#

Most people just dont bother with food at all to begin with

patent halo
#

I need some help, I have no world quests showing for me, and all my purple quests are locked behind higher item level

stark hound
#

is there anything i could paytowin with to kill mobs faster?

slate geyser
#

What mobs are you talking about exactly... lol

stark hound
#

all monsters

wooden swallow
#

?

#

They die in one hit?

slate geyser
#

Erm.

stark hound
#

they dont for me :(

slate geyser
#

What item level are you?

balmy plank
#

They will with time when youre build improves. If youre fresh there is a lot of stuff you can do without spending any money

wooden swallow
#

If you're like, fresh baby, then you shouldn't even really be looking at the shop.

stark hound
#

i guess 140 ?

slate geyser
#

Uh what

#

140?

#

What is your item level

balmy plank
#

Buying power is always a big waste of money imo. People will always get free catch ups and handouts

wooden swallow
slate geyser
#

Item level

#

The big number

elfin granite
#

damn knowledge transfer gets so expensive 👀

slate geyser
#

when you press P

stark hound
#

i cant screenshot for some reason, the higher number is 140, the lower number is 2.85

slate geyser
#

.............

wooden swallow
#

It sounds like they just made a new character normally.

#

Go play the game, lol

#

You shouldn't be here.

slate geyser
#

Someone else help him, I'm gonna get a headache xdd

#

Use the powerpass brother.

#

Shoots you up to 1585

#

He's not mad, lol

slate geyser
#

And I'm not mad.

stark hound
#

nah i dont wanna get overwhelmed by all the systems by boosting

still hearth
#

Beating myself up not choosig the support elixirs KEKW I just figured they'd be better Sadge

elfin granite
#

can you use character bound/roster bound gold for knowledge transfer

wooden swallow
#

You're not learning anything doing story mode, boo

slate geyser
stark hound
#

i wanna take it one step at a time, just want it to be faster

slate geyser
#

Just play the game brotha.

still hearth
lime beacon
slate geyser
#

The story doesn't introduce you to any of the endgame systems to be honest. It's just a lore-fest for those that enjoy lore.

#

If you don't care about that stuff, use the powerpass.

balmy plank
# stark hound i cant screenshot for some reason, the higher number is 140, the lower number is...

So you're basically fresh in the oven. If I were you I would not be worrying about spending money unless you want a cool skins or something. You have a LONG way to go and youll be stronger to manage stuff with no issue.
If you want to do the story you can continue where you are. I would highly recommend looking into the free powerpass/express event we have going on. You can make a 2nd char to boost to endgame & continue story on the 1st.
Powerpassing is very overwhelming but there are a lot of guides to help you through it

lime beacon
slate geyser
#

Yeah that too.

still hearth
bold geyser
#

also part of learning

#

you want to transmute to max out the two best powers you can

#

everything else is immaterial

stark hound
#

meh, tbh i wanna go through the story and stuff

lime beacon
bold geyser
#

then its figuring out how to best do taht, by picking promising lines, and being lucky thumbs_up_exciting

lime beacon
#

on one char

still hearth
#

Yeah but when it comes to builds as a new player you don't actually know what refinement effects to choose since the build just says crit/lum etc.

balmy plank
#

Play how you like. Just know itll take 100+ hours and 3-5 months to get to where the Powerpass/Events will take you in an hour

still hearth
#

Oh. duh.

bold geyser
#

elixir guide is still good

still hearth
#

I may have scrolled slightly and seen Luminary KEKW

slate geyser
# stark hound meh, tbh i wanna go through the story and stuff

If you want too so be it. But the powerpass and express event does expire. And if you don't take advantage of that, you will come to regret it. Since it boosts you up quite a bit. Especially since your first question was 'how do I pay to win'. The powerpass/express event sounds like it is perfect for you.

lime beacon
#

also what class are you playing at that early

stark hound
#

valkyrie

lime beacon
#

yea uh

#

thats rough

wooden swallow
#

Oh man.

lime beacon
#

because her base build is her sup build

#

hes basically playing as elysian 1 crucible 1 valk

wooden swallow
#

No wonder he's struggling, I guess.

still hearth
#

That does sound rough.

stark hound
#

damn haha

wooden swallow
#

But it still shouldn't be too difficult for you to actually just kill mobs.

stark hound
#

its not too difficult

#

just wanted to see if i could make it a bit faster

slate geyser
#

No real way to do that with where you are right now.

narrow rock
#

With the penalty im seeing on solo raid, would i still get clear tokens? Kinda need the clear tokens since i recently just moved up some alts to t4

still hearth
#

So when I do want to try getting my valk supp elixirs in the future I literally want to choose lumiance (set piece) and pray?

slate geyser
#

Story is such a slog fest, so most people just use the powerpass and play the actual game which is the raids and dailies.

slate geyser
#

You're in for quite a ride if you want to do from scratch.

narrow rock
stark hound
#

thats cool, more content the better

lime beacon
slate geyser
#

Story is like 1% of the content xdd

#

99% of it is at the endgame frfr

lime beacon
#

shoulders dont have to be heal enhancement actually str/wp is better but healing or shield enhancement gives more CP

balmy plank
#

We need Hans to explain just how dramatic story vs powerpass is

still hearth
#

I've been doing the dps build could you look at my character and lmk if its okay so far?

#

Supp is a future problem but i'll save that for reference for when i wanna work towards my supp

lime beacon
#

char name?

still hearth
#

Kagechan

#

I just got to T4 not too long ago so I haven't really adv honed a ton beyond exhausing what I could with my T3 mats

lime beacon
#

yea they are the 5/3s from event no? those are very solid only way to upograde is swap out the ones with weapon power for attack power or strength and/or upgrade them to 5/5s

still hearth
#

Yeah those are the event elixirs, I meant my character in general tbf lol.

lime beacon
#

thats minmaxy tho so wouldnt waste gold on it

#

finish transcendance

#

before doing any honing taps

#

and you can upgrade the t3 stone to a t4 one at the ability stone vendor

#

the t3 one can be upgraded

slate geyser
#

Ye. Only cost silver.

lime beacon
#

also swap out these sevens for the t4 sixes you got from event

still hearth
#

I should've asked about the valk event elixir chest Sadge was thinking well i'm dps so I guess I stick with crit. Little did I know I know it's obviously RNG heavy but how much of a pain would it be to get those elixirs

lime beacon
#

so they are ones that you def want to upgrade from

slate geyser
#

Lost Ark Nexus class guides state which elixir set to go with.

still hearth
#

so it's not totally the end of the world lol it's a forgivable mistake lol

lime beacon
sonic holly
#

Yo what will be the cardset being used in kazeros?

still hearth
slate geyser
lime beacon
sonic holly
slate geyser
#

When I see Kazeros, i'm thinking of TFM

#

If you are not talking about the first mode, then idk.

#

Prolly fire set for the normal/hard mode

lime beacon
#

Yea like this week for example i joined a HM mordum lobby that filled with dps actually faster then getting another sup, so despite joining as a dps i told lobby lead i could flex and i swapped to support

terse urchin
sonic holly
#

How come it differs? I dont really understand these difficulties between Hard mode, Normal Mode and TFM

still hearth
slate geyser
lime beacon
#

and their gem type from damage to cooldown

slate geyser
#

Normal Mode as it implies.. is normal mode.

#

Hard mode is hard mode.

still hearth
slate geyser
#

The First Mode (TFM) is the hardest difficulty. Above that of Hard Mode.

sonic holly
#

TFM I assume is where you get the race titles and all that? Im asking cause I wasnt here for thaemine

lime beacon
#

click that circle

lime beacon
#

and you can change

sonic holly
#

But at launch, if you want to just go for hard mode, is it possible?

lime beacon
#

have to equip them then you can change them

slate geyser
#

Well hard mode only unlocks after TFM gets cleared by the 1st group

still hearth
slate geyser
#

Idk what you mean by "is it possible" though

lime beacon
still hearth
#

oh my build says... nvm.

lime beacon
#

and we are figuring it out still in valk chat

still hearth
#

what about the brilliant gem? I have a spare is it the same I can change two of them or..?

lime beacon
sonic holly
#

I assume you're expected to have decent combat power being 1740? Because I could probably be there, but it would take me all the gold that I will be able to generate by then, not leaving much for systems like books, accessories and what not

lime beacon
#

so you want to fully equip the brillants

lime beacon
slate geyser
#

Item level isn't everything

lime beacon
#

ark grid though gives a lot of CP

#

so if you wait to do it post race you can still give it a try

still hearth
lime beacon
#

with ark grid then equipped

sonic holly
#

Is there any good video explaining all of this? I assume roadmap that we are getting in the end of the month also will clarify some things

lime beacon
#

you want to equip all brilliant sixes

#

those are t4 gems

lime beacon
#

and should be yellow

#

these the event should ahave given you 11

sonic holly
slate geyser
#

The gates unlock by the first group clearing the first mode.

lime beacon
#

we should have a group do it in like 2 days

slate geyser
#

Ark Grid is a longterm RNG progression system. Memorizer has a video breaking it down I think

hybrid light
#

Lvl7 ones I mean

lime beacon
#

im talking about sixes

slate geyser
#

Yeah it doesn't give you full level 7s

sonic holly
#

From what I understand, you have 2 gold earning raids with kazeros no? G1-G2 is 1 raid and G3-G4 is another? or am i completly out of it

hybrid light
slate geyser
#

Gives you full level 6s though

still hearth
slate geyser
lime beacon
slate geyser
#

So your top gold earning raids would be Act 3, Act 4, then Finale.

hybrid light
lime beacon
#

both give ark grid cores

slate geyser
lime beacon
#

1700 act 4 nm 1710 finale NM 1720 act 4 HM and 1730 finale HM

#

1740 TFM

HM and TFM are very similar fights just hm is much easier but still difficult because its basically just as long as TFM

hybrid light
lime beacon
#

NM finale only is phase 1

still hearth
#

Can I refacet these as much as I want or is it a one time thing?

sonic holly
#

Ty for clarifying that for me

lime beacon
#

while HM and TFM have phase 2 and phase 3

still hearth
#

Y'know assuming I somehow do it wrong.

lime beacon
slate geyser
lime beacon
#

thats the benefit of bound gems

slate geyser
#

You can also buy more bound gems from the Solo Mode Shop.

#

Sells level 6 t4 gems

hybrid light
#

What kind of stat priority I have to go for if I’m doing a support Valkyrie?

lime beacon
#

Bound gems for example you can use to set up two seperate gem pages and they will swap based on preset,this is one of the features that make swapping to sup very easy @still hearth

slate geyser
sonic holly
slate geyser
#

That logic extends to all supports in the game.

hybrid light
slate geyser
#

All supports are 1800+ swiftness and 600+ spec

#

Correct.

lime beacon
#

so a group has to clear finale TFM first

sonic holly
#

Ok and only then it opens both in NM and HM for players, correct?

slate geyser
#

Just Hard Mode. NM is always opened up

lime beacon
sonic holly
#

so even if Im 1730 first week, im not guaranteed to do finale Hm if no one clears it in TFM

slate geyser
#

Could be wrong on that though

lime beacon
slate geyser
#

Correct but someone will clear it week 1.

#

People fly out to korea, or buy KR accounts and practice ahead of time.

lime beacon
#

on NA saturn will prob clear day 2

slate geyser
#

The hardcore racers are really degenerate.

hybrid light
slate geyser
#

You play on EU from what I see.

lime beacon
#

and ark grid piece reward

slate geyser
#

When Thaemine launched

#

on EU, the 1st group cleared 1 hour after thaemine launched..

#

TFM thaemine

sonic holly
#

Well, but its like yeah, I assume even to do HM being 1730 on the dot needs you to have at least 2/5 relic books fully done and probably a set of high/lows or high/mids no?

slate geyser
#

So yea, nothing to worry about

still hearth
#

Why do the builds show gem recommendations from most important to least then display 6 for dmg and 6 for cooldown when you only have 11 slots.

lime beacon
#

like 2500+cp iirc is the req for hard mode

still hearth
#

6 dmg / 5 cd or 6cd /5dmg better?

slate geyser
#

I wouldn't think about getting to 1730 until all books are completed

#

with high/mid all accessories

still hearth
shy chasm
#

Some classes run 7dmg gems 4 cd

sonic holly
#

Ty for the advice, then yeah, no way I can afford all books + 1730

shy chasm
#

Look at your nexus guide

lime beacon
#

like you take this

sonic holly
#

I'm probably good to settle for 1720 and do act4 hm / finale nm

slate geyser
#

You can settle with normal mode then until the books are completed.

shy chasm
#

It will tell you what gems to run

lime beacon
#

or you take that

lime beacon
#

valk guide lists more gems then you have slots for

#

because theres multiple flex gems

#

that you can pick between

still hearth
#

I guess I'll just run the 6 dmg 5 cd for now and see how it feels. I just went through it 1 by 1 doing dmg 1st

slate geyser
#

This is my Zero to hero character on EU xdd

tiny reef
#

is this worth it

slate geyser
sonic holly

You could buy and win big. Or buy and lose.

Kaz will be december most likely

#

Lots of time to prepare

#

People will expect you to be juiced to the brim.

lime beacon
#

first clear bard in tfm was 3000 cp

slate geyser
#

Well yeah bards in KR for the longest time ran a single brand.

#

That doesn't tell me much xdd

#

KR supports are... a different breed.

sonic holly
#

Yeah, I've been just catching up, joined at mordum after almost a 2 year break.
I have 1 1700 main gs and 2 alt gs @ 1680.
Dont know how i should go about working my roster, if i should wait for more events to push more 1680, if i should do it only with char-bound gold from paradise slowly, or if I should spend rosterbound/tradeable pushing them.
Ideally Im trying to setup a 6-gs roster, to help with efficiency (and because it feels bad to play any other class besides this one)

slate geyser
#

I'll see what you are working with

slate geyser
#

The reason why I say I would get gatekept even though I will be 1740 with all books and all high/mids is because of this

#

8s are likely not going to be acceptable.

#

So I am working on 10s

I know, just putting it out there. Im not surprised

Honing to 1700 with full level 6 gems

list goes on

I've tried to avoid using gold as much as possible but idk maybe I'm just being stingy

slate geyser

If you truly love your main character that much, show that with investment in accessories, books, etc.

He said he generates 500k a week with life skilling.

hybrid light
slate geyser
#

Example. This is a high mid

hybrid light
slate geyser
#

High brand power, mid meter gain

#

You can cut them yourself but good luck. Better off buying them.

hybrid light
#

Shit my golds burning in front of my eyes again

slate geyser
#

It's okay. No reason to sit on gold. It's always a cat & mouse game of getting gold and spending it.

wooden swallow
hybrid light
#

For dps valk also brand power and meter gain?

lime beacon
#

No dps valk is outgoing+additional damage

#

on neck

slate geyser
lime beacon
#

supp accs and dps accs are diff

slate geyser
#

What I showed above is a support necklace high/mid.

sonic holly
#

I just see a good opportunity to get Hit master books done since frog is running and it will also benefit my other chars.
1.5m (their cost rn) is possible for me in 3 weeks.
Also, where should I stand with my alts? "Force them" to 1680, or wait for events?

hybrid light
#

Thx, I’m thinking of maining dps and then support

slate geyser
#

Not something I'd entirely focus on though.

lime beacon
hybrid light
#

But it seems like support has more chance of getting into raids 😂

slate geyser
lime beacon
slate geyser
#

While supports are cheaper to invest into because support books are cheaper, there's too many supports right now.

lime beacon
#

then they rat their 1300 CP sups in hm mordum.

terse urchin
slate geyser
#

And you can think the slimy alt rosters for that.

sonic holly
#

What makes most sense for me for the next month of strike raid and so on is to go for high/lows and full hitmaster books.

terse urchin
#

Ive sat 10-15min in lobby waiting for 1 dps

slate geyser
#

Waaaay too many alt rosters with supports that plague the party finder.

lime beacon
hybrid light
#

😂

slate geyser
#

It's literally impossible for me to do all 6 mordum HMs on a wednesday

past gust
#

Hello! Im a brand new player, and I noticed that I have several random event chests can i open them as i want or is there a best time to open all of them?

slate geyser
#

or even all 6 on wednesday and thursday

#

It's just.. ridiculous.

hybrid light
#

😂 well I may become that rat support but I will try to read more guides to at least get good

lime beacon

#

When advanced honing should i save my mats for the grace or just always go for the great success regardless

sonic holly
#

Also, in terms of power,

Atkpower high/wep power low or the other way?
Outgoing dmg high/add dmg low or the other way around?

slate geyser
lime beacon
#

so its not even a real 1300 either

#

this is a real ratge

slate geyser
#

lmao

lime beacon
slate geyser
#

It's funny cause high/mids are like really cheap right now.

hybrid light
terse urchin
#

They are not

lime beacon
slate geyser
#

The rats will do what the rats will do I guess.

sonic holly
hybrid light
#

Too expensive for me

lime beacon
#

they are indeed cheap rn for ears

terse urchin
lime beacon
#

neck and ring still kinda expensive tho

sonic holly
#

That's like more than a week of gold for me

lime beacon
#

and rat sups

hybrid light
slate geyser
terse urchin
#

I wasnt Susge

hybrid light
#

Well

lime beacon
sonic holly
#

well, rings (at least in my very specific case because my bracelet gives me a shitload of crit) I can just do high crt dmg

terse urchin
lime beacon
#

in reply to me because yes sup stuff is cheap

terse urchin
#

Aight regardless

lime beacon
#

then you butted in and just said "no they arent"

terse urchin
#

Sup cheap dps not cheap

sonic holly
#

High/lows are 200k for me ;-;

#

Whats better to have as a high btw between atkpower/wp power and outdmg/add dmg?

terse urchin
#

Atk and out slightly better, not a huge diff though

lime beacon
still hearth
#

Hey Rocco, when adv honing should i just go for great successes using the xtra mats or save them for the graces?

lime beacon
sonic holly
#

Do the stats of the accessories matter a lot? ex: dexterity and such

slate geyser
#

Ehh, I wouldn't pay attention unless you are going for a high/high.

terse urchin
#

Search for your 2 stats, compare items in similar price range. It doesnt matter more than that

still hearth
hybrid light
slate geyser
#

This is high crit dmg/mid crit rate on EU

lime beacon
slate geyser
#

Imo this is 'cheap' since it's a one time purchase.

#

It's well worth it though.

lime beacon
main phoenix
#

lol thats not high high

slate geyser
#

corrected it.

lime beacon
#

oh

slate geyser
#

Context was high/mid. Typo

hybrid light
#

So act4 is going to be the real “end” of the game?

sonic holly
#

Finale will

hybrid light
#

Since we kill Kazeros himself

slate geyser
#

No there's much more after that.

rose jewel
#

sure, and then we all peace out and are free

#

yeehaw

lime beacon
hybrid light
lime beacon
#

we get an entire expansion of the west of the map

hybrid light
#

…….

sonic holly
#

What i've heard is that after kazeros they gonna be adjusting game systems

#

and reworking things

lime beacon
#

and sacria is going to be a new continent

rose jewel
#

kazeros is act 1 end

slate geyser
#

But yea support is a bit cheaper for high/mid on rings.

main phoenix
#

teh game is so easy now, it doesnt really matter who you take

slate geyser
#

(EU)

lime beacon
sonic holly
#

But i bet more like "secondary" raids

lime beacon
#

theres a big map expansion in the east

sonic holly
#

as in, not these kazeros raids

lime beacon
hybrid light
#

So there will be bigger foes than Kazeros

lime beacon
rose jewel
#

one of the big bois in sacria became a god and we kill him, new boss you heard it here first

lime beacon
#

wouldnt surprise me if we get like a primordial kakul raid

sonic holly
#

I wonder if we'll ever fight kharmine

lime beacon
#

where we fight imprisoned crazy brelshaza

#

then shadow kakul

lime beacon
main phoenix
#

gotta do some unnamed bozos before kakul/zosma

lime beacon
#

they are split halves of the original god of chaos

sonic holly
#

Zosma being the ultimate boss i assume?

main phoenix
#

kakul in 2027, zosma in 2029

sonic holly
#

What's the deal with kakul

main phoenix
#

probably regulus

lime beacon
sonic holly
#

beacuse afaik we never really defeated him

lime beacon
#

so is echidna btw

#

and they are allies

still hearth
#

The hellfire mission recommends aegir gate, where is that?

rose jewel
#

act1 kazeros

#

you have to go solo or group

hybrid light
#

Kazeros raid act 1

rose jewel
#

there is no special aegir in the event

sonic holly
#

But yeah a raid every 6months, i wonder if for us will be the same

hybrid light
#

Act 1 is Not difficult tho

#

Especially solo mode

still hearth
#

ah so I need 1660 to start working on that for the valk event

hybrid light
#

Ye

livid fossil
#

Agier was the only non touched raid

still hearth
#

and for lifeskilling does the zone matter? like am i better going to north now, before I was just at lullaby when i first started.

hybrid light
#

You can do some adv honing to lvl10 so that you don’t have to waste too much on regular hones

lime beacon
# sonic holly What's the deal with kakul

||so echidna actually never died you know that primordial desire thing that consumes vykas in her gate 3? that was echidna in her primordial immortal form, when she "died" she didnt actually die she jkust lost her body and became the primordial desire again, consuming vykas let her remake her body, the primordials were originally servants of zosma in petrania, but when kazeros formed half of the primordials betrayed zosma and helped kazeros kill him, kakul though then split zosmas soul in two one his power thaemine the other his mind and ego kharmine, the primordials seem to have their own wishes, and kakuls faction of them which echidna makes clear in act 4 shes swapped sides to kakuls faction||

terse urchin
sonic holly
lime beacon
#

Only things created by the ark can die because they were given life, primordials wernt so they cant truly die and are like primordial energy of a certain type, like kakul is mayhem, echidna desire etc

terse urchin
#

If you are only playing a few characters, then yes accs are probably more enticing

lime beacon
#

theres probably other primordials we havent even met yet

slate geyser
hybrid light
#

So much money going to spend

#

Well

sonic holly
#

Ngl, the world building of this game could do a great animated series like arcane (tho the depht is not nearly as comparable), but for a fantasy/adventure show, it would be good. sucks that smilegate isnt at that level to make a superproduction like that, nor is their game as big.

bold geyser
#

i've already forgotten, is this all explained in game or only in KR so far

lime beacon
#

you can put it together with her dialogue in game

#

and the way her eyes glow

hybrid light
#

What’s the deal with echidna’s scar on her neck? Beheaded before? Sorry I just saw her overture story

lime beacon
#

she cant truly die

#

in the vykas raid she is eaten by a orb thing thats called the primordial desire

#

that is actually what echidna is

#

doing this let her reform her body

hybrid light
#

Weirdga ah I see

sonic holly
#

I miss those

#

Early ark was peak

terse urchin
slate geyser
#

think i know what ur talking about

#

dont have it either

sonic holly
#

Doing brelshaza for the first time after that saintone video was some of the best feeling I had in this game

terse urchin
#

"Did you guys get mind controlled" he says while lasering down the whole team xd

sonic holly
#

Destroyer was the first "new" class we had right?

slate geyser
terse urchin
sonic holly
#

Oh yeah, that came with story express event and such

slate geyser
#

It was the first powerpass we got, with glaiver.

#

Feiton powerpass to Tier 2.

lime beacon
#

||brelshaza is a haal just like kadaan, shes the one who saw the rise of kazeros and the haal started their war to bring about the god of deaths creation from their god antares because they knew regulus would punish him through the cube simulations creating kazeros, they did all this to free themselves from regulus order, brelshaza was like the leader of this haal faction|| @sonic holly

sonic holly
hybrid light
#

Ye they all changed skins too

lime beacon
#

but we were fighting her in a different like plane of reality so she didnt die.

hybrid light
#

I love Brel’s horn but she seems to not have them in Kazeros raid

lime beacon
#

in act 2 she runs away

lime beacon
#

its like a headdress

#

given to her by the witch of chaos

#

thats also why her magic is diff in act 2

#

because shes no longer drawing from the power of the witch of chaos

hybrid light
#

Noice

#

Actually Brel is the reason I came to the game

#

Later the love splits to Nineveh a bit

lime beacon
#

in act 4 so spoilers ||but brel shows up after echidna reveals shes not on kazeros side, and attacks echidna echidna then taunts brelshaza and tells her that brel doesnt even know what echidna really is, then clown comes out of the shadows and literally has his shadows eat brelshaza then echidna and kakul escape into the shadows||

hybrid light
#

Welp

sonic holly
slate geyser
lime beacon
slate geyser
#

I watched asmon react to saintones video about how raiding is in lost ark, showcasing brel gate 5/6. This was a few days before the game came out. That video made me want to play the game

#

Fast forward 3 years later from 2022 to 2025 and I have 14k hours xdd

sonic holly
#

I remember back when abyssal dungeons were the shit

#

Doing Rohendel ones was just amazing

lime beacon
#

so uh

#

i think kakuls faction is its own entire thing

hybrid light
sonic holly
#

I remember one of the first cutscenes in the game was kharmine "sucking up" kakul's body in Rethramis, what was that about truly?

lime beacon
#

and started gathering up other primordials like ezrebet

#

to enact his own plan

#

thats why i think they actually arent allies despite the primordials originally being the like under gods of zosma

#

i think kakul truly doesnt want zosma to come back

#

but he also doesnt like kaz

#

Thaemine had his memorys sealed by kazeros and brelshaza, but he like remembers at the end of act 3 g1

#

and thats when he and kharmine leave in a portal

#

theres like 3 major enemies that could be the next arc sacria,zosma, or kakul my guess is we go sacria to like ease up a bit on the demon stuff, but then we will eventually go back to either zosma or the primordials

#

we may deal with zosma before the primordials cause they may actually help us against him lmao

sonic holly
#

whos the big fucker of sacria

i'm week 2 at 5millions power i'm wondering

how can these people clear in 18 sec ??

rose jewel

you need a proper build, lucky ancient drops (or at least relics), lucky resonance and lucky crit+T reset fishing

meager rock
#

you're wd main no ? what's your clear timer if i can ask ??

rose jewel
#

i honestly have no idea

im top 25% and didnt realize it, i checked timer and it's crazy 18 sec i mean how Oo ?

rose jewel

extremely overgeared

#

some people have 8 or 10M score

meager rock
#

i've looked up gearscore to clear and i think i'm doing something wrong

#

some people have a bit higher than me and yet clear it 15sec/20 sec before me

do you even have a proper build

meager rock

i think so

rose jewel

rank 44

6.3m power

i'm not level 70 so i guess it might make a difference

rose jewel

WW, RoC, T space T space T space, no reset? fill it in with LeapD. or AzureD or something

always be buffed, always debuff and fish for T resets

it may not be the best strat but that was my strat

SK or Leap ?

rose jewel
#

unless you have a static that will accept your rat then you gotta look good to get there

slate geyser

looking good means being more geared, meaning doing more damage

slate geyser

but at least invest a little bit

hybrid light
#

I really tried in two weeks

slate geyser

yeah the problem is u kept hitting the honing button

rose jewel

being new and honing to 1690 is a problem

while ignoring everything else the game has

for many several reasons

hybrid light

if u have trouble getting into hm brel or hm aegir i can help next week (I main NA east)

hybrid light
#

Well I will definitely stop honing and get more on other stats now that you mention

slate geyser

but please use the gold to upgrade your character

#

with just one week worth of gold you can increase your combat power by quite a bit

i.e accessories

hybrid light
#

What will be an average cp level for a 1690s ? 1400-1500?

something around there yea
