[vapid bobcat]

is there any class with lightning skills or aesthetics? and is it good for solo?

[bold geyser]

all classes are fine for solo

as for specifics uhhhh

[vast oriole]

uhhh

well sorc has one lightning skill

[bold geyser]

sorc has several, gunlancer has some trkipods

[obsidian valve]

lightning strike go boom

[vapid bobcat]

trkipods?

[obsidian valve]

i think sorc has at least 3? i only uses one of them nowadays haha

[vast oriole]

tripods are like skill tree

[bold geyser]

*tripods sorry 😄

[vapid bobcat]

so there's no class that mainly uses or could use lightning, yes?

[vast oriole]

no

dont think so

[vapid bobcat]

hmm

[bold geyser]

all of the magic classes are quite varied

there isn't like a fire mage or ice mage either

[vapid bobcat]

varied in a sense that one class gonna have spells from different elements or is there not much focus on elements in general anyway

[bold geyser]

both, really?

[vast oriole]

well sorceress, one of the speciality is more about fire

[tender flicker]

end game sorceress has a build referred to as "palpatine", but even then its just 2 lightning skills out of 8

[vast oriole]

aeromancer one is about weather (sun, rain, etc)

[bold geyser]

like let me pull up my baby sorc

[obsidian valve]

aero is fun, summoner is my favorite

[vast oriole]

but like no specific element

[vast oriole]

3 with lightning tripod on rg

[tender flicker]

I guess

[vapid bobcat]

okay thanks

gonna watch some more yt videos and think about it

[obsidian valve]

i do miss the lightning vortex days

[vapid bobcat]

female paladin?

[vast oriole]

yeah valkyrie

and guardian knight coming wednesday

[obsidian valve]

mhm i guess she stole pally's spell usage for dps

[vast oriole]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mHz3Uljom1w https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xh2Xe2XymYc

can watch these 2 for the new class

[vapid bobcat]

what's a character booster

[obsidian valve]

like powerpass i guess 👀

skipping most early progression things

[bold geyser]

mines outdated but i'm only running one lightning skill 🥲

oh god whys that so tiny

[vapid bobcat]

that's what she said\

[bold geyser]

hehe

[obsidian valve]

das my build too

[vapid bobcat]

thanks. I don't know what I'm looking at yet so

[obsidian valve]

inferno too good

[torpid jewel]

question, I understand this is a passive tree but what is it exactly?

[vapid bobcat]

I just want play something good for solo, cool looking female, with pvp in mind, if it ever comes back

[obsidian valve]

revamped several earlier systems into one passive thingy

[bold geyser]

only that its "meteors, fireballs, ice storms, the occasional bigass lightning bolt"

[shy chasm]

Everything is good for solo

[torpid jewel]

ok so how do I access this? I dont think it is the mythical ark grid that doesnt show up for me yet.

[shy chasm]

Did you use the powerpass?

[torpid jewel]

yes

[shy chasm]

Press p

[bold geyser]

click one of these

[torpid jewel]

that brings up the profile

[vapid bobcat]

are there classes that are more low maintenance than others? or require like, idk, less potions

[shy chasm]

Yes

[bold geyser]

mostly just APM//complication differences

[obsidian valve]

can try this too

[bold geyser]

everyone uses potions if you're bad enough 😄

yeah default keybind is ./>

[shy chasm]

Potions are a general thing but there are builds that eat alot of mana so some classes use mana food

[torpid jewel]

https://giphy.com/gifs/metahitt-wow-ok-i-get-it-now-TCRIimkpZXoaEUiLEq

thanks peeps

[obsidian valve]

i guess i need a better bracelet for my supps now too, old bonuses aren't doing much for my mana regen

[vapid bobcat]

yeah. I played one other game where apparently every class was okay for solo as well but sorcereres required a lot of initial funds which I wont have

[shy chasm]

I mean is just play waht you like and looks fun than playing smth with low investment and not liking it

[vapid bobcat]

I don't know what I like yet 😄

[shy chasm]

I mean you can just pick which looks the coolest for you and watch videos on the builds it has

Each class has 2 builds

And there's a new one coming on the 4th theres videos for both of its spec on yt

[vapid bobcat]

yeah that's why I'm asking these questions like, which class has lightning etc. to narrow it down a little - because there's just so much of it

[outer mason]

Got this chart from 2023
it doesn't new classes, but it might a good point to start

[shy chasm]

Thats a very broad pick

Alot of classes have skills that do lighting or atleast kinda look like lightning

[outer mason]

I mean there's not that many
Sorceress, Wardancer/Striker, Aeromancer (rain/thunderstorm)

Gunlancer

[bold geyser]

behemoth main

[smoky sun]

Anyone else getting lag spike on first cutscene on brel v2?

[vast oriole]

Backline

Bard

Really?

[lavish mortar]

Pally the most backline supp tbh

[outer mason]

it's an old chart, okay? 😄

[tender flicker]

Its a vibes based chart

Wouldn't rely on it to reflect gameplay as a heads up. It calls Bard a backliner but she's probably the most melee of all supports (granted they will all play close range).

[vast oriole]

I mean its just incorrect, not even old xD

[vapid bobcat]

what is the distinction for skins? gender only? or are there class specific? or liek armor type?

[tender flicker]

There will be stuff that are for mage, and then stuff for specific classes like sorceress.

So far as skins go

In game armor gearing isn't anything too exciting, you get your set and upgrade it over time.

[vapid bobcat]

okay thanks

[azure isle]

if i want to play a support valk do i need to make an alt if i cant afford to pay for additional preset slots assuming you can have 2 class engraving builds on one character

[lavish mortar]

You can have dps and supp on one character yeah?

[tender flicker]

Honestly I'd rather fork over some gold for the presets unless you specifically want to play another valk

[vast oriole]

It costs way more to have another character than paying for a preset page

[tender flicker]

If you'd rather an alt be a different class, then I'd make a different alt

[azure isle]

[vast oriole]

Just use the dps page for chaos and put sup page

Thats all

[azure isle]

well

[lavish mortar]

Thats what I do for my valk

[azure isle]

im using every additional slot thats the problem

[lavish mortar]

What are you currently using them for

[tender flicker]

+engravings, gems, skills, ark passive

[lavish mortar]

Cards....

[tender flicker]

o true, but its roster wide at least

to expand

[vast oriole]

I men im using my dps artist preset for chaos and paradise

Dont see the issue

[azure isle]

only 1 gear preset is used
both default engraving presets are being used for raids and chaos seperately
same as above for gem presets
only 1 card deck preset is used
1 skill preset for raid, 1 for chaos, 1 for paradise

i cant afford to buy more slots rn

[lavish mortar]

Replace chaos with dps

And

Youre set

[torpid marsh]

Post full lvl 6 Karma, which Karma is worth it more for dps? is it class dependent? (I have char bound free taps, that's why I am doing it)

[lavish mortar]

Enlightenment

[vast oriole]

Just put preemptive unsteqd of grudge in chaos and youre set

[azure isle]

scrap chaos presets and just use raids one?

[vast oriole]

Yes

[tender flicker]

Idk if I'd use the normal valk dps build for chaos

[lavish mortar]

I do it

Slightly slower

100% fine.

[vast oriole]

Leap gives hyper awakening dmg
Enlight gives wp%
Evo gives hp

[tender flicker]

Up to you I guess

[vast oriole]

You can guess which is better

[candid lake]

hyper b/c it go KABOOM

[balmy plank]

Oh idk if you've seen but a GK community guide for nexus is out. Its pinned in the GK channel. Its got a lot of WIP stuff to finalize when we actually get the class tho

[vast oriole]

Ooh i didnt see

Ty for info

[azure isle]

do i need the gem preset for paradise

or can i replace it with support ones

[tender flicker]

nope, just skill page

[azure isle]

okay

[cyan kiln]

Everything but skills are disabled in paradise

[azure isle]

i did everything wrong huh

[lavish mortar]

If thats what you wanna tell yourself sure, but you didn't know and thats okay

[azure isle]

its fine

[lavish mortar]

Benefit of help channel is getting people to correct mistakes

[azure isle]

i need to change these dont i

[bold geyser]

then the next person who comes in and asks you can be like "omg how did you not know that"

[azure isle]

[lavish mortar]

Skills look fine, check tripods though
Engravings need to be fixed
Ark passives look fine?

[azure isle]

it doesnt take into account my full ark passive points so i need to do it myself

ill redo all of it based on the lostarknexus

[lavish mortar]

Probably for the best 8)

[azure isle]

how can i lock the rock so i wont nuke it on accident

[lavish mortar]

Ctrl right click

[azure isle]

ty

[lavish mortar]

very long term you could swap the rock to doe+awak

Minor side grade for higher party dmg

[vast oriole]

(and more cp)

[azure isle]

is she a pure shielder or is this build for only shielding

[lavish mortar]

X is heals

[vast oriole]

pure shielder no

shes a support

she shield, defense reduction

heal

buff

[lavish mortar]

None of your skills on bar heal though if that's what you mean

Just x and z

[azure isle]

yea

[candid lake]

btw arna would u use awk 4 over awk 2 and doe 2 ?

[vast oriole]

isnt there a tripod to heal on one skill like pala

[vast oriole]

no

[candid lake]

i think most people take more shielding

[lavish mortar]

Yeha but its -2s shield dura and -50% shield size

[vast oriole]

but it exists

i wasnt sure

[lavish mortar]

Your main choice is 20% dr on shield or purify

[vast oriole]

i see

[azure isle]

erm

[vast oriole]

just check old guide

[vast oriole]

aegir ?

[paper walrus]

aegir g1

[vast oriole]

or is that stronghold where theres no name

[paper walrus]

sh is just sh

[obsidian valve]

oh lol, i don't remember raid names

[thorny isle]

Is there really no viable way to get trusted status ?

[paper walrus]

if we knew how to consistently get trusted, the system doesn't work

just continue playing the game

[thorny isle]

Okay

[gray wasp]

is/was there a known bug where a player can't advance in yorn because they don't have the cheers emote unlocked from anikka?

advance the story*

[rose wren]

nope

[gray wasp]

alright ty

[candid lake]

have u done annika yet o-o

or passed through it

you should hjave gotten the emote

[gray wasp]

got a friend here who is having trouble with that, he's also a returning player. Strangely, his gear is 1250 and he's level 50, despite having much lower playtime and hasn't done any of the dungeons/raids from alt+q

[gray wasp]

I've been walking through with him as he screenshared, he only has the "Cheer" emote, but not "Cheers", and he just finished Rohendel

so this is around the beginning of yorn

[livid fossil]

Apparently he has old account and old gear

[gray wasp]

also, he has completed the quest associated with the emote

[rose wren]

all low ilvl got boosted to like 1250 when they adjusted lvls, they all have to do msq route still, cant skip

[livid fossil]

Tell him come back 2 day

[gray wasp]

he's back now

[rose wren]

use up the powerpass instead

[livid fossil]

Tell him to wait 2 days it be lot easier for him

[gray wasp]

oh

[livid fossil]

Atleast get him one guy to 1640

[gray wasp]

yeah this happened last week. Then he took a break and cameback today, still nothing. Though using a powerpass is prolly a good idea

[livid fossil]

Then pp in 2 days for another

[rose wren]

complete the first challenge in express, gain card set and ur set

[viscid hornet]

is it still possible to get the butterfly wings from the achievement?

[lavish mortar]

What butterfly wings

[viscid hornet]

from mordum G2 i think

[lavish mortar]

Should be?

There's 5 sets of those

4 hm exclusive (3 auction iirc)
And then the g2 no special battle item

[viscid hornet]

really hard to find this information anywhere lol

[viscid hornet]

is the no special item one NM too?

[lavish mortar]

Yeah

Idk about solo

[livid fossil]

Um

Nm

[viscid hornet]

na not solo cause i've never used it lol

[lavish mortar]

I mean the item was straight up deleted lol

[livid fossil]

Yeah

[viscid hornet]

oh...

[livid fossil]

It was lol

[viscid hornet]

so is it still possible or not?

hmm

[lavish mortar]

Clear nm to test
I doubt people would know

[viscid hornet]

god i fucking hate the idea of special items

[lavish mortar]

Im fairly sure it works still tho?

[lavish mortar]

It so great tho wdym

[vast oriole]

you need to counter a special pattern for it iirc now

someone talked about it here

let me check if i can find it

https://lostarkcodex.com/us/achievement/10010194/ thats the achievement

dont ask whats the specific pattern, i have 0 clue

[viscid hornet]

lol great. maybe just counter everything, assuming you cant accidentally skip it

[vast oriole]

i see this in the comments

but yeah

doesnt help much

[viscid hornet]

yeah

[lavish mortar]

Based on achievement name that seems reasonable
Good luck ever seeing that in pugs these days tho

[vast oriole]

can do it in solo

but prob need to stop dps

[lavish mortar]

Ye lots of afk time

Iirc its on a timer so you can at least do it a few times per pull

[vast oriole]

which pattern is it ?

[lavish mortar]

Velganos pizza

[vast oriole]

oh

oh

[lavish mortar]

I think is what they mean

[vast oriole]

i see

[lavish mortar]

Fits achievement name... so maybe?

[vast oriole]

yeah

[viscid hornet]

wait so not a "counter", just perform the mech properly? lol

[vast oriole]

mr @grave ivy what are they yapping about

not sure he will answer at this hour tho

[lavish mortar]

Games loaded with bad translations so could be 8)

[viscid hornet]

yeah lol

[grave ivy]

please provide link

[vast oriole]

oh hes awake

https://lostarkcodex.com/us/achievement/10010194/

i used the translate feature but not sure if its accurate

[grave ivy]

they're speculating about what pattern this achievement is about

[vast oriole]

so they useless

[grave ivy]

just do your parries and counters normally and you'll get it eventually

[vast oriole]

cool

[grave ivy]

yes

[viscid hornet]

i might give it a try and see if just doing the velganos over and over does it

[vast oriole]

ty mr russian

[grave ivy]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-kitten-handshake-deal-agree-gif-7134721403924803840

[lavish mortar]

Do it once and check achieve progress

[vast oriole]

i was thinking first of the yoho thing

[vast oriole]

its in hidden

[viscid hornet]

its a hidden achievement 🙁

[vast oriole]

wont show up

[lavish mortar]

Ay Shibal

[grave ivy]

I am inclined to believe it's that one yoho parry that turns you into yoho
But not entirely sure

[vast oriole]

yeah

[livid fossil]

Dam them hidden achievements

[vast oriole]

exactly that one i was thinking about

[viscid hornet]

the name "round and round" does kinda sound like velganos though

depends on how literal they mean with "counter"

[vast oriole]

old achievement was easier XD

[viscid hornet]

lol

[lavish mortar]

Yeah just clear raid and you get it

[vast oriole]

not like anyone was using this item anyway

[grave ivy]

fair point, maybe it refers to completing velganos merry-go-round perfectly (not via hyper skip)

[azure isle]

what can i do to not auto one shot low level enemies

[shy chasm]

can take of your wep//armor ig

[rose wren]

be nude or buy from weapon shop, if it exist

[livid fossil]

Make a fresh lvl 1 toon and stay in t1 forever

[azure isle]

just a low level weapon is enough?

[gray wasp]

my friend wants me to tell you thank you. The powerpass worked, he got the emote he needed to progress the story on his main

[rose wren]

it was awhile ago, not sure nowadays with various systems about

[azure isle]

i could lfg for a low level player but thats too much work and theres barely any low levels

[viscid hornet]

ok, tried the achievement in solo https://lostarkcodex.com/us/achievement/10010194/
did 2 runs like 5-10 minutes into berserk
probably did pizza 15+ times to make sure
also countered him probably 50 times across various patterns (but only in final phase)

someone on another discord is saying that you cant get the velganos pizza achieve in solo, so that may be it

[livid fossil]

Is that swirl mechanic

[viscid hornet]

yes

[livid fossil]

If you want that probably look for non juice players

[weary oyster]

what stat on bracelet give most combat power ?

[viscid hornet]

probably need a learner lobby tbh lol

[lavish mortar]

The dual lines probably (x + crit hit dmg, arch/demon dmg, and x + ap buff power)

[vast oriole]

Oh rip

Then i guess its gg

[weary oyster]

whats dual lines and x?

[weary oyster]

okww

[livid fossil]

I guess we are aiming for gold ones

[lone hamlet]

hi guys

shud i be buying the the ark grid thing from growth boost shop? 😮

[viscid hornet]

the gems+core selector? absolutely

[lone hamlet]

thanks!!

wud grudge be the best one to choose relic engraving for all classes? 😮

i have the relic engraving choosing thingy... but not sure wht to use it on..

[lavish mortar]

For dps, yea generally

[sterile sonnet]

can someone tell me why solo mode is 10x harder on a dps than a support for me?

[vast oriole]

because of the support buff in solo mode

[lavish mortar]

Possible gear gap
Support buff (true supporter) in solo is also insanely OP

[vast oriole]

but i guess depends what dps you mean and what support

[candid lake]

wait

could it be the hidden sidereal?

b/c u cant get that in solo mode

[lavish mortar]

Possibly

[candid lake]

and u cant really "counter" the pizza mech

or could it be

the x240 just guard that he doesnt do in solo mode?

and just hm? (i doubt it tho)

oh wait nvm

[viscid hornet]

as someone said, it could just be shitty translation

[candid lake]

the hidden achievemnt disc says it's velganos

[viscid hornet]

and by "counter" they mean literally just do the mechanic correctly

[candid lake]

did u get hit by all of the

golden tiles

and not get hit by the

black tiles

[viscid hornet]

from the pizza? yeah

did it probably like 15 times with no fuck-ups

[turbid apex]

Just watched an old video saying you can buy hell keys for 500g 1/week

Is that still the case

Or did they remove it

[lavish mortar]

1/ account

[turbid apex]

Per account per week or just 1 time

[candid lake]

1 time

[lavish mortar]

Per account per infinity

If it was per week id have multiple 1755

[faint cedar]

Yeah it was an odd addition to patch in

[turbid apex]

I didnt see it in the paradise shop in the paradise menu

Is it on an npc

[lavish mortar]

Might have been removed after season1

[faint cedar]

I haven’t seen it so might be the case

If you want more keys you can f4 shop or exchange cubes but I don’t recommend either

[candid lake]

and even if it was

[livid fossil]

S1 s2 didn’t have it

[candid lake]

i think the season 1 keys already expired

or were supposed to be removed

[turbid apex]

Ive just been doing my cubes for gems

[faint cedar]

I think it was a “welcome to our new weird system hope you like it” gift kinda deal

Cause I haven’t seen it since

[lavish mortar]

Fk paradise

[livid fossil]

I think they gave a key for every I lvl

[faint cedar]

Alts would be so expensive without paradise tho lol

[candid lake]

fax

[lavish mortar]

Doesn't matter i don't touch my alts anyway

[faint cedar]

https://tenor.com/view/theryelynn-ryelynn-rye-mehmehmeh-meh-gif-22335967

[lavish mortar]

What they're not fun to play for me anymore :{

[faint cedar]

It’s chill, I think of it like a little mini game

Nice to have something to tap that isn’t gold and fusion related

[sterile sonnet]

valk vs breaker

[vast oriole]

well valk is infinitively easier than breaker tbf

[lone hamlet]

hi guys i have a question on igniter sorceress, which one shud i be selecting first? and how do i get the other 2 since i have only one selector boxes? 😮

[vast oriole]

and her dps branch is kinda broken

[faint cedar]

Valk is a dps disguised as a support

[vast oriole]

order

[lavish mortar]

Go do act 4 and kazeros for cores

[sterile sonnet]

holy struggle haha i also dk wtf im doing on either so theres that

[lavish mortar]

Dont use selector for now

[lone hamlet]

ohhhh

ohh i guess if i use it i can get repeats?

[lavish mortar]

Better to wait until you naturally hit a legendary+ of the cores you want then select the other

[lavish mortar]

Yes

[faint cedar]

Ideally you’d get one of your order sun or moon cores to drop then use selector on the other

One to activate destiny one to make it do the thing

[lone hamlet]

ohh.... ok gotcha!

shud i use the epic ones??

[faint cedar]

Order = class chaos = supplementary stats

[lone hamlet]

i duno wht it means to use the epic ones

[faint cedar]

Either order stability or chaos corrosion. If you’re new to ark grid and don’t have 14p on your class core (seems like you don’t) you’ll want to select order stability. It’s the lowest willpower order astrogem

If you don’t have cores, save for later

[lone hamlet]

hmm maybe these big cores r needed

gotcha...

thanks....

it got more complicated after getting 1700 since evnt is ending soon... sigh..

[faint cedar]

You don’t have a core active which means you likely haven’t done act 4

[lone hamlet]

i watched the videos many times wht sort of combat power do i need to get into a party? 😮

[viscid hornet]

dont feel rushed to get cores. you'll be stuck waiting for good astrogems regardless.

hold onto your selector

[faint cedar]

TLDR:
1700 unlocks act 4
Act 4 drops purple-legendary-relic-ancient core
Right click activate core
Astrogems socket in cores to make them do something
You cut astrogems at the vendor, aiming for as much red and yellow as you can get
Red decreases slot cost (willpower) each astrogem has a default start cost, each red point during cutting decreases the base equip cost by that amount
Yellow gives points (order or chaos points) toward making core do something
Ignore blue and green at start

[lone hamlet]

gotcha..

thanks guys!!

thanks for dumbing it down for me

[faint cedar]

It’s not too complicated of a system, it’s just a big gold sink

Shooting for 1700ish cp is probably decent for getting into an act 4 (rough estimate)

[weary oyster]

which earring for dps?

[candid lake]

top one

it's in the pins tho

[faint cedar]

1 3 5

[weary oyster]

oke

[lone hamlet]

on an igniter sorceress shud i be getting the moon one as relic or sun as relic?

is moon the more important one for all classes? 😮

[faint cedar]

Beginning of the end and repeated apocalypse are the two most important

Specifically for triple doomsday

[balmy plank]

You need both to activate the destiny effect. My approach is to wait to get a selector until I can get both. Just in case 1 drops while building pity for the other

[lone hamlet]

i ended up finding this relic selector chest and the legendary one from the growth boost shop but wasnt sure what to use the relic one on..

i think i got it from an event long time ago...

or i g uess does it not make a difference which one becomes relic cus ill need to replace it with relic later? 😮

[balmy plank]

In that case I would check in the sorc chat tbh #sorceress just to be 100% sure

I personally dont know whether the sun core or moon core will provide more damage from the additional lines

With legendary you can at least activate your destiny effect

[faint cedar]

With those two and the 40k box from gold shop you can get your main three

But yeah ask sorcs which ones better relic

[candid lake]

i think repeated apoc is def better at relic

if doomsday reset is available at legendary

b/c at 17 is when your z can reset the cd

[faint cedar]

Depends on what the 17 lines do

Cause idk

[candid lake]

for sun

nothing

just dmg

17 is really important on moon

[faint cedar]

Chances are that’s the one then

[candid lake]

b/c it is what allows u to cast the doomsday immediately, explosion then doomsday again

if you use moon at legendary i dont think u have enough time maybe

im not sure

b/c u could meteor -> z , wait for it to come -> use it again

eplosion and maybe the 3rd doomsday

[lone hamlet]

ill just stick with repeated apoc

[candid lake]

but i doubt it

i forget how much cdr u get from z

but i dont think it will be enough (?) to fit everything in

[lavish mortar]

Its not

[candid lake]

can u ss the legendary core for beginning tho? @lone hamlet

[lavish mortar]

Cuz iirc you get +cd to doomsday from one of those cores

[candid lake]

from the chest

[faint cedar]

Yeah it’s sun

6s Cdr or something

[lone hamlet]

these are the legendary n relic ones...

[candid lake]

yeah

legendary beginning can def work for the build

all that is necessary is the 14p

[lone hamlet]

ok gotcha... thanks guys!!

i just duno what these points mean....

[candid lake]

like how many of the yellow thingies u need

to activate the core

[lone hamlet]

nor wht destiny is sorry..

[candid lake]

moon core = give destiny through some condition

sun core = uses the destiny for the special effect of that core

so for example on this

at 14 points, using explosion gives destiny

and at 17 points, using z gives destiny

those on their own dont do anything

that's where the sun core comes in... this

at 14 points, you can use the destiny proc for something special for this core.

In this case, it resets your doomsday cooldown and eats up the destiny proc

[lone hamlet]

ohhhhhh

[candid lake]

@lone hamlet you remember conviction and judgement

right?

those on their own dont do anything

but they need each other to work

[lone hamlet]

yaa i remember that one..

gotchaa ohhh

[candid lake]

conviction does nothing on its own and needs judgement to proc the special effect

kind of the same idea

but on a bigger scale

[lone hamlet]

sorry i might be asking a dumb question now is this working good now??

[candid lake]

you need to cut gems now

and u want to maximize the amount of points into red and yellow

and at minimum 5 points into red (aka lowest willpower u can go) and 5 points into the yellow (aka the most amount of points it will give to the core)

the willpower is much is taken from the core's supply

for example on legendaries, it can only use up 12 willpower

anything more and the gems that make it go into the negatives and after wont work

[lone hamlet]

ohhh....

[candid lake]

for example

i have this in my ark grid

it only has 9 willpower at max

my 1st gem

2nd gem

1st gem takes up 4 willpower but gives me 5 points toward my core

2nd gem takes up 5 willpower, gives me 5 points

[lone hamlet]

ohhhh

[candid lake]

hm.. that is 9 in total

what happens if i add another gem?

oh no im in the negatives

[lone hamlet]

ohhh

[candid lake]

and now that gem that made my willpower go int othe negatives doesnt work

and the gem after doesnt work either!

because the previous one made me go into the negative willpower..

[lone hamlet]

gotcha.... is there a good way of cutting the gems? like with the 3 epic ones i got from the growth shop?

shud i combine them together or shud i combine it with greens too?

[candid lake]

the most important ones are the order gems

i would say go with 3 stability

and do not combine them with greens

it's really risky

[lone hamlet]

ok gotcha...

[lucid axle]

does 3 bubble only apply for bard?

[candid lake]

yes

they are the only class with 15% dmg buff from identity

[lone hamlet]

am i doing this rite??

[lavish mortar]

Basically yeah

[lone hamlet]

when shud i be re-doing? like the button on the right side...

[lavish mortar]

When the options suck (negative red/yellow mostly)

[lone hamlet]

or when do i know im done processing? 😮

[obsidian valve]

solo is fine

[livid fossil]

Solo would be better

[azure isle]

theres gonna be an "ai stone cutter"?

[astral root]

yep

[balmy plank]

Yes. Itll auto cut a stone for you to save time

[azure isle]

the fact that theres AI involved makes me doubt it so i cant help but ask how reliable would it be

[livid fossil]

We don’t know

It’s not out

[candid lake]

memo got a 9/7

:>

[azure isle]

i thought there would be info about it because of korea

[livid fossil]

Luck sa you

[candid lake]

but i think it tries to get it as even as possible?

[livid fossil]

Sack

[candid lake]

wydm

it was memorizer

[astral root]

https://www.reddit.com/r/lostarkgame/comments/1q2biyp/chances_of_97_with_krs_new_autocut_aicut/

[azure isle]

[astral root]

basically negible decrease in rates for a 9/7

[livid fossil]

Surely I will get on the first one

[astral root]

which actually translates to a positive rate due to time save / less likely to mess up

[azure isle]

is it on next update

[candid lake]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/8p046DKYz34

[astral root]

yes Roxx confirmed in Eye of Arkesia

[livid fossil]

So what negative thing do we want on the 3 line

[azure isle]

so you ai roll and you can reroll indefinitely?

[livid fossil]

I know as few as possible hits but does it matter

[astral root]

lowkey depends on class but I'd assume def reduction for dps

since you can always just overhone armors and frontier nerfs damage taken anyway

[livid fossil]

Cause I got bunch of hell ones

[astral root]

some classes like suports can run movespeed decrease iirc?

[lavish mortar]

Prob defense decrease, just dont get hit 8)

[astral root]

we're all low incap farmers anyways

[lavish mortar]

Nah I farm max incap
Its the only statistic I can beat everyone in 8(

[astral root]

(Same)

[bold geyser]

can get freebies from hell, if you're lucky

they'll be anywhere between middling and pretty great

otherwise you can buy some from the mokoko gold shop

with fixed stats

[balmy plank]

You def want to move to ancient asap. Gear you get at 1660 from aegir & bonus from solo shop.

The accessories, you can buy a set from the growth shop but it is gold

Growth Shop, green icon beside minimap

[bold geyser]

no itll be under the growth shop rn

i dunno if thats its forever name

[shy arrow]

Hello, I just came back to the game for about 2 weeks. I notice that my game has a micro stutter problem (does not occur in any other games I play on my PC - so its not my pc's settings I think), didnt happened a year ago when I played. Is this a current problem many people have to deal with? How do I go about getting rid of this?

[balmy plank]

The game is general not amazing for performance but there shouldn't be any constant issues. Like, Ill drop frames at the start of a raid fight when I really shouldnt but ive never had stutters

It might just be a matter of playing around with the setting to see if something is causing it

[lone hamlet]

hi guys, i just want to ask a quick question i got used to the ark grid system now but it seems pretty hard to hit 17 points on like a core.... what shud be expected at 1700? would it make sense to have around 10?

[balmy plank]

I guess it all depends on the cores you have available to you. Starting out, activating your destiny effect is a big deal. From there you just slowly get better cores either from drops or from pity and improve

No one will expect all 20 point cores or anything at 1700. I don't have that on my 1745 mains

[lavish mortar]

I don't even have 6x17 yet on my main some people have 6x20 on alts, its entirely rng dependent

Ideally you'd want to hit at least 14 on sun and moon cores for the destiny proc though

[shy arrow]

the stutters are pretty consistent tho. Every boot, once I choose the server and in the char select screen, the stutters start, and it also make the sound of any yt videos, spotify also stutters. It stopped for like 1 sessions on early wednesday, but later that day it came back, and still happens till now

my pc is quite high end so I know its not a performance issue. I tried lower the settings of LA to minimum and still happens

[lone hamlet]

gotcha... thanks guys......

it just seems for igniter sorc 17 seems very gud but seems very hard to hit...

unlucky

[bold geyser]

not wrong

just takes a while

[lone hamlet]

i guess i cant rush it

[shadow pasture]

just simply get lucky

[lone hamlet]

i duno if its just me but i feel like before the ark grid system was introduced was way more fun.. 1700 just kinda overwhelmed me a little and seems super rng with no progressing feeling now.. sad

[balmy plank]

Elixirs, trans. It was not anymore fun for progression systems

[lavish mortar]

Only because previous progression systems got deleted

You'd have hated elixirs just as much

[lone hamlet]

ohhh... ya... i didnt play back when tht system was around

but i believe it...

like i get it, EVENTUALLY ill get these ark grid thingies unlocked eventually but

[unique fox]

eh, the best attitude to have is to not rush

idk what they even do, but it seems like that weird system in tier 3 where you stole traits from ruined armor pieces in tier 3?

[lone hamlet]

does paradise give u any ark grid thingies?

[split kayak]

hell can drop astrogem chest

but i dont think it's that valuable

[lone hamlet]

hi guys, is it worth trying to cut green astrogems?

what shud i do with them?

[thorny narwhal]

fuse them on alts and send to main

and u will spend silver when u fuse

i mean when u cut

50/50 change u make tradable and its worth

fuse 2 of same gree and 1 blue and u can get tradable green or blue or even pink

[thorny narwhal]

sry bad in explanation 😄

[split kayak]

you get T4 ancient gear materials from 1660 raid, act 1 (aegir)

craft it at kazeros gear crafting npc, then transfer the enhancement at honing npc

[swift pier]

i cut green astrogems when desperate but im bad with money

i tapped +25 like last week

but u can tell from like 1 green tap if it’s worth

and i have a couple 5/5s from greens on alts

[faint roost]

Hey guys, im coming back to the game after a 2 year hiatus. I played until the area of kayangel and quit. Im wondering if there is a mokoko express event rn. That gives materials to hone your way up. All i really want to do is play the story in the higher areas

I used the 1640 pass which is useless for me as it skips the story

[minor briar]

yes there is

and u have about 24 hrs

[strange viper]

Yes there is some kind of event rn, and I think new one tomorrow with the new class thats releasing.

[minor briar]

to do wat u can

before it goes away and a new one is out

[ashen shuttle]

do we get new mokoko express new update?

[shadow pasture]

ye

[ashen shuttle]

wow i can have 2 1700 now

[split kayak]

the 10% is alrd included or smth?

[smoky sun]

yes

2000 +10% = 2200

[split kayak]

so misleading

i thought gonna get 2420

aight thanksss

[vast oriole]

Mokoko express starts at 1640 and theres no new story after rimeria
I recommend to come back wednesday as doing msq (or kt) will provide the gear and you dont need to hone till ilvl 1585 if you wanna do story
Tho now that you used the powerpass, it skipped some roster quests

[hearty kraken]

I should choose stability right?

[shadow pasture]

thats the 8 willpower one right?

ye if you are getting started on ark grid

[dim pulsar]

thats random box

[split kayak]

how much difference is having the fire set vs los against drex

[paper walrus]

10% damage

if you have fire set 18 swap, even if you do its no diff

its a 3 minute fight

[hearty kraken]

yeah I misread. I cant read

[split kayak]

do ppl do raids on 7th+ char? if yes, any point beside for fun? are there any valuable drops funnel-able to main?

[sterile sonnet]

why isn't it letting me enter solo mode act 1 raid?? I stopped last nigth because i had to go to bed but i didn't beat gate 1

[split kayak]

did you use quit game when still inside?

[sterile sonnet]

lol yes. how else would I stop playing?

[split kayak]

i mean inside the raid

[sterile sonnet]

i guess i dont remember. im guessing yea

[split kayak]

you have to use the stop/leave button in the raid, if directly quit, it locks you

stupid game, yes, i too wish they fix it

[sterile sonnet]

Wow......

sorry AGS my quitting solo mode must have effected the other players i was playing with

thats why they even have that coded in right so ppl can't just rage quit?

[split kayak]

yeah, kinda
also can be abused, to just leave before it dies and not consuming clear and carrying ppl infinitely

but ye now you know

[sterile sonnet]

lame

[shadow pasture]

basically just 4 fun, most of the mats are just char bound

i suppose there is some legendary card drops you can get

[faint cedar]

If you gold lock your roster you can claim extra chests on the additional characters for free

[split kayak]

oh?

does it works for let's say brel solo or even armoche

[shadow pasture]

ye it works

if youre talking about the free chest

[split kayak]

[cyan kiln]

Not only gold lock but actually doing a gold raid on each designated character.

[candid lake]

Smilegate not ags

[faint cedar]

That’s what gold locking is

[candid lake]

But it should have given you a ticket in the male

Mail

[cyan kiln]

I thought you meant designate, sorry.

[sterile sonnet]

Gotcha

[candid lake]

check later todayt

if u dont get one maybe it's mega delayed and u might get one after reset and beable to run twice in a week

lmao

(it has happened to me before)

[noble garden]

recently returned and have a few selector packs, which card set should i be building up ?

[thin dock]

is it worth starting lost ark now

[balmy plank]

Sure, its a free game

Doesnt hurt to try

[steel goblet]

right now today would be the best time to free pass

[thin dock]

i mean i have 200 hours

i played

on release

[steel goblet]

theres a lot of solo mode raids that you can do with a heap of classes quite fun

[thin dock]

ok im downloadng game @steel goblet if i need any help can i messahe you and flow

[balmy plank]

Idk what "worth" means to you. What exactly are you looking to get out of it

Feel free to ask any questions in here. Lots of helpful people are around during the day

[noble garden]

[balmy plank]

Sure, ask away

[torpid jewel]

[balmy plank]

[noble garden]

no next powerpass is tmrw with the update

[noble garden]

recently returned and have a few selector packs, which card set should i be building up ?

earth one ?

[outer mason]

oh yeah mb, you thought you meant legendary card packs

[torpid jewel]

oh ok

[balmy plank]

As always dont use selectors until you can finish a card set. What you go for largely depends on your roster and the content you do
Earth - Skolakia (1680) & Mordum G3 (1680)
Lightning - Krathios (1720) & Brel G1&G2 (1670)
Fire - Drex (1700) & Armoche G2 (1700)

?cards

[buoyant dock]

Recommended Card Pack for each Card Set _

[noble garden]

ohj theres a command, thank you @balmy plank

[livid fossil]

No tomorrow

Patch notes yet

[livid fossil]

You can now play the various classes before creating a character. This should help a lot of people trying to pick a class

[lapis barn]

What's this?

[balmy plank]

The 3 chest system

[thorny heath]

do you guys think the challenge express can be swapped once like the last one? planning on powerpassing a char to 1640 -> event until 1680 -> then swapping to a 1680 character i actually wanna play ( like last time )

[vast oriole]

probably

but you cant hone

[lavish mortar]

if you hone you can't swap tho i thought

[vast oriole]

if you want to switch

like always

[alpine anvil]

is there a trick that ppl use to simulate support buffs in trixion?

[vast oriole]

maxmp sa

[alpine anvil]

full relic u think?

[vast oriole]

no

[alpine anvil]

ok ty

[thin dock]

@balmy plank i just downloaded i may need help

can i create new char or should i continue with 60 one

[livid fossil]

[vast oriole]

as you want

you want to use the powerpass or no?

[thin dock]

well yes

[livid fossil]

Use pp one

[vast oriole]

use on any chars, theres a new one coming tomorrow

[thin dock]

is it this one

[vast oriole]

yes

[livid fossil]

And then tomorrow you on another if want then do the other manual

[balmy plank]

If you have any questions feel free to ask. Ill cover a couple first steps & recommendations

• Doesnt really matter whether you start fresh or use an existing char. Itll basically be the same experience
• There is a free power pass (story skip) to Tier 4/item level 1640. I would recommend using it to skip to endgame. It expires tonight!! We get a 2nd free one tomorrow! you can have 2 boosted characters
• If you want to experience the story, wait for tomorrow when there is an update to progression. Make an extra char to do it. Play story if youre overwhelmed by endgame. Play your endgame char if story is boring you

When you make a character use the ?quickstart command to get steps on setting your build up and first steps

Both listed above

All those guides in general are very good

[thin dock]

this si all i got

[balmy plank]

For now

Start doing some stuff & itll fill up real quick

[thin dock]

wait i dont even know what abilities do lol

[livid fossil]

I suggest getting your build up then doing the first challenge boss so you can have both car sets

[balmy plank]

Take your time to read them & their descriptions. If you leave the city you can use them. You can toss em out randomly to see what they do and stuff.
The Nexus class guide will have rotation you can use to maximize your damage

Trixion also has a training room where you can whack on a dummy, reset your skill cooldown and fill your identity guage up at will to learn & practice as well.

[balmy plank]

🫡 Have fun out there soldier

[thin dock]

here in evolution its missing 1 node

the 4th one is missing

[balmy plank]

Thats normal. You get additional points for each tree from a variety of sources later on

[vast oriole]

https://nexus-guide-site.pages.dev/guides/valkyrie support page isnt complete but dps is

[thin dock]

no i mean it doesnt have 1 row

[vast oriole]

thats the old guide

new guide is the one i sent

but its not done for support, only dps build

[thin dock]

yea i want dps now

i need more points

[balmy plank]

Ohh check the uodated guide Arna linked.
There was an old progression system removed from the game recently and it was added into the Evo tree as a new 4th line

[thin dock]

for last node

[balmy plank]

Its normal not to have the max points.
Evo - You get more points by crafting Ancient armor at ilvl 1680
Enlight - You get more points from ancient accessories and a few collectable items from a variety of sources
Leap - More points from an ancient bracelet
At 1670 you unlock a system called Karma. With karma you improve your ark passive trees which also gives you more points for the enlight & leap trees

[thin dock]

this is the engravings one i need also stone to get

for chaos*

[balmy plank]

Dont use those engravings. That looks like a chaos dungeon build

Youll want these

[thin dock]

yea for chaos

im making 2 different presets

[balmy plank]

Ahhh okok

very proactive. Tbh I never make chaos dungeon builds I just use my raid build

[thin dock]

but they all are lvl 0 no books

[vast oriole]

yes no worries

[balmy plank]

When you do the Mokoko Express challenges you get given free x5 maxed legendary books

For now you can leave them and upgrade them when you get to the express stuff

[thin dock]

waitt how do I

get autopick up

[strange viper]

summon your pet

[thin dock]

its pet?

i dont thinki got one lol

[strange viper]

then you dont get auto loot

[balmy plank]

Alt+P for pets. Summon one

Your pet also gives you some stats. By default it gives you extra crit stat but if you visit one of these NPCs in a major city (none in elnead) you can change the stat to swift or spec if you need to

DPS Valk is crit primary so you can leave it as is

[thin dock]

yea i remember that

i just got full inventory as you said

[balmy plank]

Check these guys. Right most is auto-fusing gems. I would set it to Tier 4/level5 or 6
Middle is auto-dismantling gear. There are a lot of options for it but the quickstart has a step for it

Doing those will help reduce the huge influx of stuff

[rose wren]

looks like u went to wrong dung

[balmy plank]

They did tier 3 chaos dungeon because the growth quest recommended it. Which isnt ideal but you live and you learn. Not something to worry about 30 mins into a new game

[bold geyser]

Do we know whether the express is extended or just replaced with an identical event w/ the tokens reset?

[candid lake]

replaced

[bold geyser]

Bastards

Aight

[candid lake]

why o-o

why is that a bad thing o-o

[livid fossil]

So kazeros one I will get those boxes in the mail since I didn’t complete it or no

[bold geyser]

Gotta spend my odd number of tokens 🥲

[candid lake]

uhh i dont think express gave out tokens

i think u meant bootcamp?

if u meant bootcamp

then it's being extended

actually

im not sure..

[livid fossil]

I did not see boot camp on notes

I saw new express

[vast oriole]

Blind

[candid lake]

but yeah, im not sure if it's like a new new bootcamp using idff tokens and just saying we still have bootcamp

or actually an extension of the current

[livid fossil]

Yes I am thank you captain obvious lol

More coins for the vets

[bold geyser]

I did mean that im distracted mb

[lucid knot]

Not sure if I missed on a message or in patch. Did they say what would happened to already owned tradable mats from guardian raids? Are they converting them to bound?

Or is it best to sell now

[balmy plank]

Nothing happens. The mats you have now stay as is

[steel goblet]

where are these patch notes

nvm found them

[alpine anvil]

does this mean we keep current tokens?

[rose wren]

by the meaning of extended yes but who knows

[viscid hornet]

so wait, after the update, are fate embers the only source of unbound destruction stones?

[vast oriole]

and wb

yes

[viscid hornet]

wb?

[hearty kraken]

how do I leave the guild with only 1 character?

[viscid hornet]

oh world boss

[vast oriole]

dont check that

[viscid hornet]

that severely rate-limits unbound stone income. wonder if prices will surge

[hearty kraken]

It is grayed out for me thats why I thought it was the default

[lavish mortar]

They already spiked
They'll probably spike more

[hearty kraken]

thanks

I didnt even see the checkbox on my monitor

[terse kernel]

is advanced honin better than regular?

[vast oriole]

at some thresholds yes

?advhoning

[buoyant dock]

Optimal Advanced Honing Order
+12 -> 1-10 -> +14 -> 11-20 -> +18 -> 21-40 -> Continue to normal hone.
Calculated with no additional materials (Books & Solars) and full on grace for advanced honing (Scrolls & Solars used on full grace only). Personal costs may vary when using an abundance of these items should you have them. You can estimate your costs using Maxrolls Honing Calculator https://maxroll.gg/lost-ark/upgrade-calculator

[terse kernel]

what does the "11-20" men after it where it says +14

[vast oriole]

+14 is normal honing

11-20 is adv honing

[terse kernel]

so is it read that once you get +14 Adv hone 11-20 then once +18 adv hon 21-40 then normal hone?

[vast oriole]

yes

[balmy plank]

Yes, you alternate back and forth

[terse kernel]

bet

[uneven surge]

does anyone know how much rc the premium express will be? i couldnt find it on the notes

[vast oriole]

in kr it was around 20$

we dont know for us

wait tomorrow

[steel wadi]

Arna, look

I hate them

[terse kernel]

can these be exchanged?

[rose wren]

pspunika huh

[vast oriole]

yes XD

[rose jewel]

Those are full tickets, use them

I believe they're T3 so just get the gems and upgrade them to t4

The rest of the mats (solars) are just ded, assuming you're t4 already

If you're t3 you can use them all while honing to 1620

[bold geyser]

Wasn't papunika the better maxroll back in the day

[rose wren]

was the best map to find everything

[rose jewel]

Was

[rose wren]

no longer exist , is it not was?

[rose jewel]

Answering soc

So, was

[hearty kraken]

do I need unbound crafting tools for relic tool crafting?

the ones I get from dissamembling dont work?

[dim pulsar]

parts u get from dismantling are for repair kits, to craft tool WITH tradable relic kit u gotta get tradable parts

not that relic tools are THAT worth to get

[hearty kraken]

funny thing: people yelled at me to get relic tool while I was trying to get to 1710

[rose jewel]

Who

I don't think anyone here even recommends that

Leg is more than enough

[hearty kraken]

#lost-ark-discussions message

[vast oriole]

yeah and we dont agree

stats are random

you can get shit

and its 30k gold wasted

yes at some point you will get back the investment

[rose jewel]

Who the fuk is him

[vast oriole]

but you need to work on your char before that

[hearty kraken]

ok what have i done wrong this time?

[vast oriole]

i didnt go relic tool before i was like 1725 xD

[worn sky]

for advanced honing to 10 at +14 should i use additional mats?

[vast oriole]

when you have 6 balls yes

[rose jewel]

Only on full balls on adv honing

[worn sky]

ah oki

ty

[rose jewel]

Not asking for a second opinion

[worn sky]

where do i get more glacier and lava breaths

[hearty kraken]

I think there were 2 people telling me to get a relic one

[rose jewel]

Hell, cubes, field boss, events, ark passes

[cold tapir]

your character progression is more important then your lifeskilling tools.

lifeskilling is extra and you do it every other day.

[worn sky]

ty

[rose jewel]

Relic tool is not needed and even less when you're new and trying to get resources to even hone

[bold geyser]

It's a big gamble, is all

[rose jewel]

If you were a veteran with a full roster at endgame then yes

Otherwise it's dumb advice

[cold tapir]

Master tool kit is 30k gold on NA

[rose wren]

ignore those, stick with what u have until u can gamba away

[rose jewel]

Get a good leg one and work with that for a while

[cold tapir]

if you're new you're broke, no money for those kits

[bold geyser]

And a big investment either way because it still takes a while to pay for itself

[rose jewel]

Assuming you even get a good one

And you may get a better one with less from leg ones

[hearty kraken]

I mean, im 1710 now. now i can think about it

[rose jewel]

It's just dumb advice to tell someone to go for a relic tool when they're new

Or returnee or low on resources

[rose wren]

doesnt matter what ilvl u're either

[rose jewel]

1710 is not 1730 for the next soft reset

And if you want a new alt around there where will the gold go

Instead of to honing it will be to try and possibly waste it on a decent tool

[vast oriole]

problem is

yes youre 1710

but its time to work on your cp

xD

get that advanced honing done

[rose jewel]

1400cp 1710+ ilv

[vast oriole]

then some gems

then maybe one book

[rose jewel]

Ark grid says hi

[vast oriole]

yes its expensive

[cold tapir]

unless your character is 1730 with 3k cp (without cores) don't think of tools lol

[vast oriole]

yeah that also...

[rose jewel]

Istg people always wanna rush everything

Ofc sometimes the issue is one random recommendation from not good sources

See: reddit

[cold tapir]

i try to count how many 1700's i find with 1300cp

[rose jewel]

Or that guy who told him that

But asking outside of the HELP channel was kinda

[hearty kraken]

im at 1,8k

[rose jewel]

Questionable, to begin with

[hearty kraken]

I wasnt even asking for help

I was just talking about trying to reach 1710 this reset

[rose jewel]

Or taking any info seriously

[vast oriole]

did you get the lvl 8 gem on x skill btw?

[hearty kraken]

and then they told me to get relic tools

[rose jewel]

Lmao block him

[vast oriole]

ok you did

[hearty kraken]

I kept telling him that 1710 this id is way more important

[vast oriole]

yep time for more advanced honing XD

wait

[rose jewel]

waits

[vast oriole]

dont use mass increase

just use hit master if you dont want the heal penalty of cursed doll

[rose jewel]

Is that a call with MI

Valk*

[vast oriole]

yeah

[hearty kraken]

its because I negate it to some extent with that + booze

[rose jewel]

Eww

[vast oriole]

but its still -5%

[rose jewel]

-Something still

[azure isle]

is the simultaneous buff stack setting recommended/good to have enabled

[vast oriole]

i do because it annoys me

[cold tapir]

garbage, useable for now but work on a better one

[vast oriole]

i would recommend on supps

dps i have no clue

[hearty kraken]

let me just have one out of thin air

[azure isle]

oh yeah thats poggers

[cold tapir]

my alt valk and it's still mediocre
