the gold is moved to chaos gate

[marsh breach]

kurzan front

[split kayak]

[marsh breach]

uh oh

[split kayak]

[cyan oracle]

hi where can i report a bug

my 4th anniversary weapon chest cant be moved to storage

[strange viper]

I think the official discord might have bug reporting channel. Or at least it used to, dunno if its still there

[cyan oracle]

this is not the official discord?!

[heady kestrel]

where can i find weekly tasks

[lavish mortar]

Next to minimap, the waymark thing

They're all auto tracked now

[heady kestrel]

[lavish mortar]

Start with this stuff

[quasi harness]

lostark nexus is better than maxroll for builds?

[strange viper]

yea nexus is much better

[quasi harness]

why is that?

[strange viper]

more and better info

[honest bane]

why does everything and their mom cost gold man

[quasi harness]

wildsoul build is updated until december 2025 🙁

[indigo marten]

oh am dumb
i can just roster fuse astrogems... asit suggest
on other char

[lavish mortar]

Then most likely nothing has changed since

They do a very good job updating the guides

[strange viper]

Yea maxroll is probably mostly fine, they just dont have all the info that nexus has.. for new players i guess its irrelevant so go with whichever guide is easier to follow. Oh and you can also find some other wildsoul player to just copy paste their skills/passive setup for you now.

havent tested this one yet, not entirely sure if it works at all

[quasi harness]

ohhh so if one wildsoul player can give me his build, that would be great

all i did was use the powerpass, but my char is new xd

im lvl 70, 1640

[strange viper]

I can hop on my ws and try it, but i think it might not work if you dont have all the skill points and ark passive points yet.

[indigo marten]

@lavish mortar quick question
if i am out of green stability
have 21 stability blue
10 stab purple
7 green solidity
9 blue solidity
5 purple solidity
2 immutability green
6 immutability blue

how would u fuse

[quasi harness]

i dont understand lostark nexus

i have this engravings here

but then i go down a bit

and i have this ones

????

im so confused

[strange viper]

The above one is special for chaos dungeons

[spring spruce]

this is for kurzan front

[strange viper]

the other one is for everything else

[spring spruce]

this is for raids, depending on which engraving you going for

[quasi harness]

no idea what kurzan front is

[hearty kraken]

ignore this. its just for chaos dungeon/kurzan. you dont need that

[quasi harness]

xd

[lavish mortar]

These words mean nothing to me

[quasi harness]

im 1640

[quasi harness]

and here which ones do i pick?

it says pick one but there are 2 green ticks

man this is so confusing xD

that's why i was asking if someone can help me out 5 or 10 min while i share screen so i can understand this stuff xD

[strange viper]

all of them are viable options and depend on what you are doing and what kind of bracelets and rings you have

[quasi harness]

i have the gear they give u for free with powerpass

[strange viper]

ye that gets replaced once u hit 1660 and 1680

[quasi harness]

i also dont know what this means

pre ark grid, relic crow etc

[lavish mortar]

Doesn't matter until 1700+

Youre pre ark grid till then

[quasi harness]

k understood

whats this ?

[strange viper]

another skill you get when you do the third awakening quest., and the awakening is just crazy version of your regular awakening (like your ulti)

[quasi harness]

do i have it yet?

[strange viper]

possibly, you might have to do a quest that takes 30seconds

dunno if u get it from power pass

[quasi harness]

and here for phantom beast awakening, which one should i pick?

[strange viper]

phantom beast or ferality are two different builds for wildsoul.. other one transforms into a bear and a fox and uses their skills.. the other stays in human form

pick whichever you prefer

[quasi harness]

i think i want phantom beast

[lavish mortar]

Green check= recommended/highest dmg

[quasi harness]

k dope

i have so much stuff in my inv i dunno what to use

[shy chasm]

Press esc>card catalog>enhance>press auto save at the top theb right click all of the cards there

[strange viper]

Click all the things, and the ones you are not allowed to click those you put into storage

[outer mason]

classic inventory from 4 years ago though

[strange viper]

its the same in every old mmo.. years worth of crap shoved straight into your face the second you login for the first time

[marsh grove]

they didnt even announce fixed hell keys

or skill codes

your guess is as good as mine 🙂

[quasi harness]

and which cards should i use?

i dont see the cards in the guide

[indigo marten]

roster gem fusing
like is there setup i can go with on this pool of gems

or do i raw tap

[strange viper]

its situational.. you use whichever card set gives you the best dmg type and highest dmg for the raid you are doing.

[marsh grove]

you're not gonna have completed sets other than LOS 30/30 which the event gives you

you'll be using LOS for a long long time

[quasi harness]

no idea what los is xD

[shy chasm]

If you used the challenge express you should already have it equipped

[quasi harness]

how do i know that

[strange viper]

card set that new players get, turns your dmg type to holy and increases holy dmg by 15%

[shy chasm]

Top right next to your mini map there's a button called challenge express

[outer mason]

express gives you LoS 30

[strange viper]

Oh right it might be called something else in that alien language whatever that is

[shy chasm]

Yep you have it then

[quasi harness]

should i just press the bottom down?

[outer mason]

yes auto equip everything, it's easier

[strange viper]

yea you select the bottom one for phantom beast

[unique fox]

am I going crazy or is Kurzan front not dropping accessories

[outer mason]

yeah that's normal, no more accessories in kurzan front/chaos dungeon

also no more gems

[unique fox]

I guess ill be using the free gems permanently if gem drop rates tanking so hard

at least we get lvl 7 freebies

[lavish mortar]

Gotta do guardian for gems

[strange viper]

i dunno man gem prices keep dropping for some weird reason.. i expected them to go up since they deleted them from chaos dungeons and put them on guardians instead and i know less ppl do guardians so.. one would think that means less gems supply = price increse..

mby i can buy a lvl10 soon

[unique fox]

I would also expect gem prices to raise a lot, wow

[outer mason]

I personally know that I started doing more guardian raids because of this change
Maybe that's the case for other people

[marsh grove]

GR sucks

but no choice anymore

unless u wanna fk yourself over

🙁

[strange viper]

i hate guardians too i just do skolakia on my main 6 but it takes so long and its so annyoing.. i tried argeos on my rats but thats even worse cos ofcourse it is.. and veskal while it is nerfed and dies instantly now only drop t3 gems like lvl3s so its barely worth going there

[marsh grove]

I dont bother doing it on 1680s

[strange viper]

and theyre not gonna do the guardian changes until next month?

[marsh grove]

1700 has gems + astros which are necessary

1680 no astro so meh

[strange viper]

well I have 1700s or clos to 1700 but no astro on none of them

[marsh grove]

we'll be lucky to get GR changes next month lol

[strange viper]

so skolakia is usually 3-4mins

[marsh grove]

if you do GR on 1700s for awhile you'll have a ton of astros

[strange viper]

i tried the 1700 guardian few times but that takes like 6-7minutes and its much harder to kill

[marsh grove]

and stocking astros is great for patches like this one

where they just gave us 2 more core selectors

[strange viper]

most of my characters are stuck here until they release the next solo raid in 6-7months or so. until then im just stockpiling the astrogems 😂

[lavish mortar]

Are you soloing or something wtf

[strange viper]

yes always solo

[outer mason]

good thing is that gems from 1580 Guardian Raids is nearly the same from Argeos (if you convert them)

[strange viper]

yea its probably close, but its not a lot

veskal used to drop like ton of tradeable leaps so it was worth doing before for those

at some point it was like 16x the value vs argeos

cos for some odd reason t3 leaps were like 4x more expensive

[outer mason]

Sonavel, Gargadeth and Veskal now all have the same item level and loot btw

[strange viper]

ohh didnt know that. i just did veskal like always, i noticed he dies instantly now

that explains it

[maiden locust]

=

[quasi harness]

how do i get more points from here?

[dim pulsar]

by getting Ancient gear from Aegir (1660)

[languid topaz]

?AdvHoning

[quasi harness]

where can i buy this stones?

[sterile sonnet]

can someone tell me why the game isn't letting me open the 4th anniversary weapon skin chest?

[outer mason]

these are brilliant gems, the express should give you full lv6 set
you can sell the other gems, since they are bound to your character

[outer mason]

can you share a screenshot?

[vital latch]

Hi, request for buying/selling engraving books is forbidden here right ?

[quasi harness]

im missing one for my build, can i buy it for gold?

[marsh grove]

what does that even mean? use ingame market

RMT discussions not allowed as far as I know, yes

[vital latch]

have not enough gold for sell my books xddd

but np ill wait

[outer mason]

the express gives you 11 lv6 gems
which is exactly what you need for a full build, you don't need to buy more

[dim pulsar]

u SWAP gems in Gem Tab

(their effects)

[quasi harness]

where can i buy a skin for my character which isnt very expensive?

im wild soul

[split kayak]

isnt there announcement right below the text box

[dim pulsar]

FREE skin in newest Event Island

Origin Island

[quasi harness]

no idea where that is xd

can i buy this in market?

[dim pulsar]

accept pink quest in any city

[dim pulsar]

no

[dim pulsar]

its from Guardians or any other type of content

use codex to search (alt+D)

[quasi harness]

which one?

[dim pulsar]

[quasi harness]

left bottom?

[dim pulsar]

i only see 1 PINK quest

[quasi harness]

havent played this game for 4 years xd

[dim pulsar]

btw u have to do the purple quest line too (under that pink one)

[quasi harness]

there is another purple up in the map

[dim pulsar]

the top purple isnt needed for now for u

[quasi harness]

what should be my main priority rn?

i literally just made the char and put my build

im 1640

lvl 70

used my powerpass

[somber steeple]

what skin is it?

[dim pulsar]

the Deathboi zero to hero

[dim pulsar]

metal boi (aka freedy skin)

[languid topaz]

can i do a solo raid - not claim the gold rewards for practice and then do the same raid with my homies later?

[dim pulsar]

ummm no

[somber steeple]

solo raids are different mechs though

[dim pulsar]

they share SAME raid "ID"

so u either do solo or normal or hard

[languid topaz]

ja ok - great game

[dim pulsar]

u cant just do NONgold solo to then do GOLD normal

this ISNT WoW raids

u gain precious mats here

[languid topaz]

they should add an option to not gain mats xd

[dim pulsar]

that would mean u could bus this shit

and thats not what we want

[marsh grove]

hes talking about doing solo and then doing group

[dim pulsar]

that would also make shit

cuz new players dont know SHIT and would unlick this and cry about why they didnt get mats

[somber steeple]

raids are not that hard bro, just watch a vid then do with your friends

[marsh grove]

the real answer is likely that they want you playing more chars if u wanna play more

and playing more in general means paying more

more invested

[quasi harness]

guide

game

wtf

i cant change the 3rd option to "EPIC"

only legendary or relic

[dim pulsar]

thats books?

well we DONT have epic books anymore

[quasi harness]

so i keep it like second image?

[dim pulsar]

not that u even need to have it done, u dont rly gain that much of them to need auto dismantle for books

[languid topaz]

well i would play more if i could run a raid more than once with my homies per week xd

[marsh grove]

yeah I mean you can earn gold on up to 6 chars per roster per week

and gearing up to 1580 is completely free now, 1580-->1640 is no gold just materials

[languid topaz]

dont i have to play through the whole story ?

[marsh grove]

if you wanna play more u gotta put in time or just $$$$$$ powerpass

[marsh grove]

yeah, or pay gold to skip it

[languid topaz]

👍

[dim pulsar]

btw gold skip FROM 0 to 1585 is like 40k gold

[quasi harness]

is that a lot of gold?

[dim pulsar]

for new player its GIGA

for us vets its not big deal

T3 raids would give u 2x less than this overall

[somber steeple]

he has south rimeria pass no?

and char express

[dim pulsar]

well thats 1 time use

[somber steeple]

get his char to 1680, and earn around 68k gold weekly

[dim pulsar]

but still i would SKIP story with gold

[dim pulsar]

sure, but he NEEEEEED this gold on his MAIN char

dont create more ratge alts while ur MAIn is trash at first

[wheat nimbus]

its a Puzzle Game.. >:c

[somber steeple]

hes going to just run solo modes though, event gives more than enough for solo

[dim pulsar]

sure, but thats wasting 40k gold that u can just do urself

i would rather have my 40k gold than skip some story

[somber steeple]

i would rather just get x5 alts, get them farming hell keys, and then just have a x6 1680 roster in couple of weeks

thats just me though

hes timegated anyway, by brel bottles and other things and wouldnt get accepted in 1700 content anyway

[vital latch]

if i put something on market and if my item doesnt sell, did I get back the gold cost ?

[faint cedar]

I wouldn’t skip all of the story

Being low roster levels gonna hurt eventually

[vast oriole]

Yes

[vital latch]

ty

[somber steeple]

oh btw i actually cut some astrogems, it went pretty badly but i now understand the system @faint cedar

[faint cedar]

Yeah it’s not a hard system

Just presented awkwardly

[somber steeple]

its even more disgusting than elixirs

[faint cedar]

Yeah..

[tiny wyvern]

dragonknight hellfire or dreadful roar?

[dim pulsar]

thats 2 diff playstyles

[tiny wyvern]

ik mate im asking if theres any power diffrence between them

[marsh grove]

well NOW you're asking

lmao

[dim pulsar]

spec is a bit "stronger" at some times

but frontal is PUSH IMMUNE 99.99% of time

with also DECENT dmg

and "whats" bigger dmg =/= fun of playing

[tiny wyvern]

alr ty

[languid topaz]

can i get this only from crafting or the market?

[faint cedar]

Solo shop

Gold shop

Hell

[languid topaz]

👍

[marsh grove]

login rewards, sometimes fever time. ark pass as well

[heady ember]

anyone able to enter shangra? i get disconected and my game closes

[quasi harness]

btw guys this is impossible wtf

how am i supposed to kill this boss with nearly 300 health bars

[dim pulsar]

bars are irrelevant

[languid topaz]

thats what my friends also said xddd she is lowkey 10times more difficult than the next challenge

[dim pulsar]

its just to make it simple in terms of WHEN BIG mech happens

btw its not EASIEST one true, but u gotta do it

[livid fossil]

Surely I get done be the end of the event

[heady ember]

Chaos gates, are those the ones that appear on the map all over?

[dim pulsar]

yeep

its not BIG gold as of 1 gate, but on whole week scale its something

[languid topaz]

how do i get rid of these elixir chests ? xd

[dim pulsar]

move to spare alt and delete whole char

[heady ember]

i have two in my bank like that

[languid topaz]

xd ty

[dim pulsar]

or make a ticket in support (i heard they deleted them for some1 dunno if they will do for u)

[vast oriole]

Or just put them somewhere and forget about them xd

[ionic sail]

is it bug? i cannot store it in my roster storage

[ionic sail]

ahhh

okay thanks, didn't notice it

[heady ember]

just went up

[indigo marten]

for express is it better to ah to 30 for 1700 to 1710?

[viral zenith]

whats this

and how much gold is this

[heady ember]

random with a better chance of more gold per level increase

[supple shoal]

i just came back and i have 2 1595 chars should i boost one of them (theyre my mains) with powerpass or should i hone it and push alt to 1640? also will i be story gatekept and powerpass would fix that? also can you share t4 gems between your characters (same class)?

[dim pulsar]

https://maxroll.gg/lost-ark/resources/paradise-guide#hell-header

check here at UR ILVL ZONE

[supple shoal]

?

[dim pulsar]

PP ur MAIN, u can share gems (tradable ones) for same class

as long as they are same T4 ilvl zone

North Kurzan story -> 1620 -> T4 free 1640 ->Rimeria (not needed below 1680ilvl, as its needed to do Mordum)

[marsh grove]

I mean how many chars do you have and how much do you want to play

PP is pretty valuable

and T3 honing doesnt cost gold anymore

[dim pulsar]

not gold, but ur time that u would be IN T4 using express

[supple shoal]

aight so i should use one powerpass hone rest to 1620 snd do kurzam story for t4 transfer got it

[marsh grove]

if you have materials on one of your 2 1595s then it's like

incredibly quick and fast

to hit 1640

without PP

[supple shoal]

yea i have like 400k honor shards but no leapstones on both i have plenty of red and blue materials tho

[dim pulsar]

400k shards is nothing

soo PP is tha way

[marsh grove]

shard costs got heavily nerfed

and paradise is free shards

• tons in solo shop

no leapstones or fusion is rough tho

[dim pulsar]

sure, but u would be WAY better using Paradise for T4 rather than T3 bozo shards

[torn crater]

Hello, im planning to return, i have a 1670 character on thaemine, however i want to play on a more populated server, is it worth staying for the silver/gold/shards i have on this server? I heard luterra is the most populated?

[supple shoal]

i think i have leap chests tho

so we good

mybe

[marsh grove]

depending on the situation I definitely disagree

but aight

[marsh grove]

what are you looking to get out of a "populated server"

[dim pulsar]

server - big or smol - doesnt matter as u only share GUILD/World Boss/Lifeskilling - anything other is REGION wide

[supple shoal]

i mean i just need 25ilvl on both the chard to reach essentially 1640

[torn crater]

isnt it easier to find raid parties and stuff?

[dim pulsar]

mats, shards, FUSIONS and then Story of North Kurzan and Story of Rimeria to do

[dim pulsar]

no, party finder isnt SERVER specific

[marsh grove]

if you wanna start express on one of your "main" chars NOW then yeah just PP

if you want a bigger roster and have time to play this week then it could be possible to push one of them cheaply and PP a brand new char

[split kayak]

party finder connected to all server in NA

[marsh grove]

its at the very least worth considering

[supple shoal]

and how is support situation? would it be vise to pp my pally/ bard or should i pp some dps i always dreamed of playing like glaivier/slayer

[split kayak]

it doesnt matter

[torn crater]

ah so the only reason is to have a more populated server feel out and about, guess ill stay on thaemine

[vast oriole]

pp dps you want to play

theres no support shortage on eu

if you really want to pp a support, do valkyrie since you can play both builds and both are good

[supple shoal]

aight and how is gem investment a big thing will i be good off with something like 7s were in t3?

like what t4 gems should i get on the dps

[dim pulsar]

u get free set of T4 gems

[vast oriole]

you get 5 lvl 7s with the gold shop + all 6s with solo shop

[supple shoal]

ohhh i see

[vast oriole]

its more than enough till a while

[split kayak]

how

[vast oriole]

well

idk?

[supple shoal]

aight thankss

is it for each character

or roster wise

[vast oriole]

yes

[dim pulsar]

dont play in weird time

[vast oriole]

each char

lesgooo

[split kayak]

sry im on the other side of the server

[vast oriole]

(those 5 lvl 7s cost 20k each btw, can use bound gold for them)

[dim pulsar]

btw 20k for 7s is GIGA CHEAP while the market ones are 120k++

[vast oriole]

^

[supple shoal]

heel naw thats old lvl9s 😭

[vast oriole]

comparison

[dim pulsar]

if u have FULL tradable set of 9s T3 u can convert them easy

0 gold needed then

[vast oriole]

well lvl 9s t3 transfer to lvl 7 t4

[supple shoal]

ohhh

okie

[dim pulsar]

only thing is if u share them with T3 chars u should convert them for now

[supple shoal]

i dont actually have gems much

so its fine

[vast oriole]

i would just buy the t3 gems in the solo shop for the alts

if they are t3

and transfer everything

EXCEPT

if you have a lvl 10 dmg gem

if you dont, ignore it and transfer everything

[dim pulsar]

u dont have to put ❤️ every single time

when there's giveaway all of sudden everyone is active, where tf those people came from

[pure basin]

i t hink my cd engraving books have gone missing, is that related to the existing bug?

[balmy plank]

Its normal for lots of people to lurk. We also have a lot of different chat channels where people are active in their own little mini community accross the server

[vast oriole]

[tawdry imp]

Is Kurzan Front and Chaos Dungeon the same thing?

[vast oriole]

yes

one is t4 and one isnt

thats the difference

[tawdry imp]

Thank you!

I figured that but just wanted to be sure as in-game they make it sound like two separate contents you can do

[lament zealot]

if it was up to me i'd straight away give it to the active people here in help channel, they're truly doing amazing work

[vast oriole]

true, give it to me :)

[balmy plank]

Help chat is my favourite chat but its more fun if everyone can participate. You should see the amount of work people in the class chats put in testing their classes, making guides and helping people there too

[minor grail]

can i keep the old outfit when converting to 1640?

[balmy plank]

Ciel helped make the class guide for GK recently and has been in the GK chat helping and labbing a lot

[lament zealot]

you know i really got overwhelmed when i came back to the game, i was about to quit on the same day if it was not to you guys

[balmy plank]

Base gear appearance? no

[vast oriole]

well we do it for that reason ngl so thank you for saying this

[livid fossil]

Can he help with skill issue with class lol

[vast oriole]

lot of people are math nerds in class channels yes, very very helpful aswell

[lament zealot]

i really dont want to proceed to g2 if these are enough to craft gloves, anyone remember the cost?

[supple shoal]

i have bunch of 1595 chars and just came back im planning on using the 1640 powerpass on a new one question is should i knowledge transfer the mine 1595 characters to 1640 or should i just hone them with materials from chests

[dim pulsar]

u have to hone

u cant just KT North Kurzan and Rimeria

[supple shoal]

even if i powerpass one character to rimeria?

[dim pulsar]

we NEVER skipped ilvls using KT

u can skip only 0-1585 with KT as the Story changes

above it u have to hone

[cyan kiln]

Doesnt cost gold to hone to 1620 but still materials.

[supple shoal]

oh aightt

[cyan kiln]

wait you gonna play again dj?

[supple shoal]

ye yesterday i downloaded pain and suffering again

why

missed it too much

[cyan kiln]

isnt this the second time you come back

[dim pulsar]

its WAY too good combat to not come back

[supple shoal]

come dm if you wanna talk so we dont pollute this server

[supple shoal]

this

[candid lake]

should be like 30 for armor or some shit

i forget the exact cost

i think it used to be 40

[dim pulsar]

30 now, 40 before nerfs

[lament zealot]

these are worth buying?

[dim pulsar]

IF u need more aegir mats then yeah

[lament zealot]

already got all keystones i need

[dim pulsar]

then no real need

only for shards if u will be short on them (but it also isnt alot of them here)

[bold geyser]

...but the amount you get is generally good for the price

[nova burrow]

If my gears are at +21 should I just adv hone from now on till I get to +40 adv hone?

[dim pulsar]

huh

[tender flicker]

Definitely

[dim pulsar]

?advhoning

[nova burrow]

Then resume my regular honing

[dim pulsar]

ur like OVER honed by normal honing

[nova burrow]

yeee

Lmao

[dim pulsar]

need to do all AH40

[nova burrow]

Ahhh

xd

I just always regular hone

[dim pulsar]

i did my ah by solo shop only

[nova burrow]

Aahhh

Yeah my friend and I try to one-up each other by saying "ok I'm 1704 now wbu?"

Something like that, since we created our characters

So I never really wondered about the progression

[bold geyser]

Nothing til you get all +40, then unlikely you're better off resuming honing vs spending gold elsewhere but deal with that then

[dim pulsar]

i have more than i need on some alts

for the 1730 soft reset u only need +20 (40AH)

anything above it is kinda whatever if u have

AND FULLY DONE ARK GRID

[bold geyser]

You get extra levels for it, it's not the end of the world

[nova burrow]

Okay okay

[bold geyser]

Just expensive

[dim pulsar]

thats the real stopping shit

[nova burrow]

I could also be wrong on what + my gear is at right now

[dim pulsar]

its not wrong, but u could use ur gold more eff in AH

since u get bonus % value at ah30 and ah40

[nova burrow]

I'm gonna check rn

Okay yeah all but my weapon is +21

[lavish mortar]

ur griefing urself

[vast oriole]

weapon is fine

rest is...

[nova burrow]

HAHAHAHA

[vast oriole]

so you did the opposite

[lavish mortar]

armor should never be above +20 unless you're an idiot (like me)

[nova burrow]

I DIDNT KNOW OK

😩

[lavish mortar]

NOW YOU DO SO GO DO AH

[vast oriole]

eh, if you want to tfm or nightmare mode

[dim pulsar]

or just happily free tapped it

[vast oriole]

yea

[nova burrow]

Ohhh wait

Hahaha I'm wrong

[dim pulsar]

but using gold on +21/22 isnt best to do

[lavish mortar]

full +25 tho

[nova burrow]

My gears are +19 and my adv honing is +21

[vast oriole]

can you read properly?

[nova burrow]

So it's not too bad teehee

[nova burrow]

No I have bad eyesight

[lavish mortar]

oh that's okay then

but focus on AH from now on

[vast oriole]

well you want to go 30

[lavish mortar]

[vast oriole]

do not stop

midway

[nova burrow]

I have 0 gold

[vast oriole]

then do raids

[nova burrow]

But ye fo sho

Too much work

[tender flicker]

Wait, why is your AH all 21?

[vast oriole]

because some people dont know

[nova burrow]

Am I not supposed to have them all at the same lvl?

[dim pulsar]

no

[vast oriole]

what ah30 and 40 provides

[nova burrow]

[lavish mortar]

going one at a time to +30 is best

[nova burrow]

WHAT

[dim pulsar]

whole ITEM to FULL then move to next

[nova burrow]

😩😩😩😩😩

[nova burrow]

Let me check my gk

[vast oriole]

and focus on weapon first for damage

[nova burrow]

Okie

[lament zealot]

here we take the kit right?

[tender flicker]

Up to you, imo the blue juice is the best value. If you're like a support and something like 2/2 awakening/drops is better than the awakening/expert they give you then maybe stone. Odds of a 3/2 stone are like...1/700 or 1/1k kinda range

[bold geyser]

going 1 at a time across all pieces may be the cheapest way to get ilvl

[dim pulsar]

kit if u want to get 9/7 (giga rare), or just juice to hone faster (more efficient)

[bold geyser]

but you're missing out on the 30 and 40 bonuses so in the end its not worth the temporary savings

[balmy plank]

You take what you need. A single stone isnt likely to get anything. Quality taps are nice if you have shit quality and the jelly beans are good if youre looking to hone soon

[lament zealot]

cheers guys

[plain sorrel]

Not rare, just it is on reduction stat

[quick blaze]

[quick blaze]

Thank you, im a returning player was originally 1450 (when that meant something lol)

[dim pulsar]

well its easier to come back than start with 0 exp

[quick blaze]

My only concern, wtf do I do with cards now, none of the build guides mention card setups

[dim pulsar]

u get free los 30 now

[lavish mortar]

you use LOS most of the time

occaisonally other card sets for respective elements

[quick blaze]

Hmm no idea what los is but im sure a quick google will help

[lavish mortar]

light of salvation, it's a cards et

[quick blaze]

agh I see, do i get it from the tour? or did i get it from the pass

[lavish mortar]

you get from express event

[quick blaze]

Ok I'll start with the tour first and then work onwards

[dim pulsar]

after going with quickstart thingy then u go to whole of it

[quick blaze]

Ok thank you

also whats the sub I get again? ark pass or resonance?>

[lavish mortar]

crystalline aura?

if you're gonna spend irl i'd get ark pass instead personally

[quick blaze]

the main ark sub, In remember there was on everyone had that gave free ports etc

and more daily stuff

[dim pulsar]

well, Crystaline Aura is the biggest qol

[lavish mortar]

crystalline aura
but that's mostly just qol stuffs

[dim pulsar]

then u have AZENA blessing (some nice buffs)

[viscid osprey]

does this game have a class with a complex rotation that is relatively slow?

[lavish mortar]

"complex"
"slow"
pick one

[dim pulsar]

complex and slow doesnt add up

u would be better with what playstyle u would want as other typical games

[viscid osprey]

ok, so the class im looking for doesnt exist

[vast oriole]

pretty much

[viscid osprey]

i thought i would like arcana, because the rotation gets altered due to cards - so that fits the complex category, but i find it way to quick, especially empress

[dim pulsar]

well shes RLY fast paced class

i could only go with reaper lunar build, its complex and mid-fast

[livid fossil]

How about hammer boy he slow but NOT complex

Not

[lavish mortar]

how is destro complex

[dim pulsar]

he isnt complex

thats most SIMPLE class u could play

[livid fossil]

I fixed it

Said not

[dim pulsar]

edit ur original saying

thats the real fixing

[vast oriole]

well

they said complex rotation and slow

theres 0 class

that has both those

[dim pulsar]

Search Results: 0

[livid fossil]

lol

Complex mid

[lament zealot]

this worth doing? i guess t4 unlock after?

[dim pulsar]

it is worth if u plan to hone alts in 1585-1620 zone

[lament zealot]

not really i'd like to keep my alts on valtan and vykas lol 10 minutes solo raids with ok gold, but i was thinking to unlock t4 after? which may effect my main honing?

[indigo marten]

well aegir and brel is also fast solo

[dim pulsar]

valtan is 1415

get them fast to T4

[indigo marten]

idk why u wanna park at tier 3

[dim pulsar]

its silver honing soo

[agile marten]

is this level good enough should i move to leap ?

[dim pulsar]

just 2 maybe 3 weeks of hell keys at 1585 zone to hit u with T4

[shy chasm]

you stop at 21

or max 25

[dim pulsar]

did u use GOLD to tap it? (past 21)

[agile marten]

um yes

[shy chasm]

[dim pulsar]

wellllllll

[shy chasm]

yike

[dim pulsar]

[agile marten]

i didnt fail so much it was about 100k

[dim pulsar]

still 100k down the bucket

[shy chasm]

ok mr whale

[dim pulsar]

we post this image like 100x a day

[agile marten]

didnt know about it

welp that didnt go well

so leap tp 6 then

what guys did you mean by using gold ? is there another way ?

[dim pulsar]

free tapies from hell rewards

[shy chasm]

there are free taps

[dim pulsar]

or in express itself

• we ONLY use free tappies beyond lvl21 on alts

[agile marten]

didnt see that ?

[dim pulsar]

and ONLY free taps at 25++

[dim pulsar]

Destiny Stones (in hell)

[shy chasm]

you get 50 from the express

[dim pulsar]

purple looking stones in express (paid one gives another 150 of them)

[shy chasm]

200 if you bought the premium

[dim pulsar]

Processed are FREE TAPS

[agile marten]

oh

i see

ok then tysm guys

[honest bane]

why is there so many different currencies to upgrade all these systems

[dim pulsar]

cuz 1 is PAID, and they added just now the free ones to help

and u dont get enough free ones to get it all done

[honest bane]

1680 to 1700 seems so expensive

is it normal that im running out of almost all mats? should i just buy leap stones and such from the market?

[shy chasm]

as a new player yes

[rose wren]

mmorpg for ya, tho i think gacha has 'em too

[shy chasm]

express is only there to help not give you all the mats

[honest bane]

almost feels like im missing some source, but i think ive checked every vendor/menu

[dim pulsar]

ur not supposed to hit 1700 in 1 go, no new player did that without using market or $$

btw ur 1700 now is WAY faster than any of us did it before

[honest bane]

ogey

[dim pulsar]

1680-1700 zone isnt thing u should skip fast

only thing i see in old guide

[past bramble]

theres no weekly quests anymore?

[turbid apex]

game says right one is more CP but isnt left more damage?

this is for hellfire DK btw

[tender flicker]

No more weekly unas. They moved gold reward to chaos gate and material reward to waymark mission weeklies.

[strange viper]

How much more cp? and yea left looks tiny bit better, but youll probably want to get a new one at some point with more spec.

[turbid apex]

19 more

cp

ya im waiting to get bracelets in hell

[dim pulsar]

its that the weapon power is weighted WAY more than any other stat

[turbid apex]

but havent yet

[dim pulsar]

but its not that great of a dmg gain itself

this left is overall "fine" but way low crit/spec

[turbid apex]

ya i was told buying high crit spec from the market is not worth

[dim pulsar]

we do not buy from market

just hell rewards

[turbid apex]

yup

[vocal moth]

I came back to game but on all my t3 chars when i visit honing npc it says you do not have gear available for honing

[dim pulsar]

and i wouldnt cut any SPEC based bracelet below 90spec

[dim pulsar]

check universal storage

[obsidian valve]

rip

[turbid apex]

also undecided between helfire and dread so i dont wanna invest in spec brace yet

[dim pulsar]

OR go to wavestrand port to gear merchant and buy set (highest one) and do STORY QUESTS as they give armors up to 1585ilvl

[tender flicker]

Thats a 🐳 move

[shy chasm]

oh wait i cant read

[dim pulsar]

[supple shoal]

what is chaos gate waitimg to enter

[vocal moth]

nothing there, i have gear on i just cant hone it

[turbid apex]

you have to progress the story

[dim pulsar]

GAME honing changed with STORY CHANGES

[rose wren]

a event that happens every otherday throughtout the day

[dim pulsar]

go buy new gear in Wavestrand Port (luterra) Gear merchant

then do south kurzan story (and any that u missed along)

[rose wren]

or PP

[dim pulsar]

Pp is the FIRST thing u should use btw

[vocal moth]

got it

[past bramble]

why i cant use that?

[rose jewel]

Kind of the same answer as the dude above

You don't hone before 1585, completely disabled, just follow the command above

[past bramble]

my gear is 1250 i see i need to complete some punuika MSQ to receive 1340 but i dont see that quest

[rose jewel]

You finish whatever main story you have next

[rose wren]

show quest journal

[rose jewel]

It may not be punika

But we won't know until you do the mentioned above

[rose wren]

or just powerpass

[past bramble]

so this

this game is so overwhelming

ohi cant locate that quest

[rose jewel]

I mean, it's an MMO that has been out for 7 years

Also, show the GUIDE tab

[rose wren]

u have guide to yorn, u cant do punika yet

[rose jewel]

Ah, stupid phone cut out the image for some reason

[rose jewel]

Didn't see that one

[rose wren]

yea continue there

[rose jewel]

But yes you don't even, or better said can't even go to punika yet

[past bramble]

yorn cradle?

[rose jewel]

Follow the light blue quests

You will get an armor set each time you finish the main story all the way to 1585 item level, if you ever lack armors or a weapon (item level) for the next continent, follow the command to see what's up

are engravings good to do now or later too?

[lament zealot]

how to get rid of these? i cant sell it or destroy it lol

[rose wren]

spare alt,dump,delete if it truely bothers u

[rose jewel]

You just pick/equip them now, no reason not to, will help clear stuff faster

You upgrade them to legendary much later on

[lament zealot]

this insane lol i have to delete character to remove it

[rose jewel]

Just... don't?

Store them on page 2 of any char and forget about them

[lament zealot]

yeah

[rose wren]

if u need those spaces...

[past bramble]

you can only equip facced, what does that mean?

[rose jewel]

He doesn't

Not a big deal

[rose wren]

faceting stones to unlock the engraves boost

[past bramble]

i need to face that fully or whatever its called right:?

[rose wren]

tho doesnt matter on low lvls until raiding

[rose jewel]

Do the highest you have (one relic) and dismantle the rest

You don't care about them where you are

[rose wren]

either read guides or go training area to learn the vary basic of the game again

[rose jewel]

But yes you have to fully cut / facet one to be able to equip it

Results don't matter for now, just click

is higher better for seeing boss mechanics?

i watched hour and 30minutes video of guide, im still lost 😄

[vast oriole]

lost on what

[rose jewel]

He's in Narnia, wrong turn on Jupiter

Guides are just to guide* you a fair bit, you just have to explore

And most guides will be outdated coz we've been getting a lot of changes

But ofc if you don't even tell us what kind of guidance you need we can't help

[past bramble]

used my resonance at chaos dungeon, ark pass still says used 0/100 cant collect guardians will at raid for some reason. every 3minutes im trying to do something, theres something wrong

i will ask but i will ask a lot

[rose jewel]

This is the help channel, you ask questions here, I see no issue in that

[past bramble]

now im going to do that blue quests so i hope there wont be questions now for some time

[rose jewel]

You will be busy by main quests alone for a day or so

[past bramble]

goooood

[rose jewel]

Now, the question here is

Do you actually care about the main story

Or do you want to just get into raids asap

[past bramble]

nono i will complete main story and everything

[rose jewel]

You do you then

You will be doing whatever horizontal stuff for weeks then probably

[lament zealot]

this game story is way better than WoW, gw2 combined

[rose jewel]

The start ramps slowly

[lament zealot]

you can skip side quests but i'd suggest you follow the main story. its really good

[rose jewel]

South Vern onwards it gets good

[rose wren]

o since ur on rohen, do the part of arkeisa tour

[lament zealot]

Feiton story was amazing

[rose jewel]

It has its good moments early

[nova burrow]

Best moment is with Thirain

[humble wagon]

so i just came back to the game and was trying to gear up another alt with the challenge event but i feel like they give out like no mats with the challenge event i feel like events in the past gave out enough mats to hone a bunch am i remember it wrong?

[midnight anvil]

Guys the KT can only be paid with normal gold? or can I use roster bound gold to pay for KT?

[rose wren]

not wrong, we're 1:1 KR edition, just bad

[candid lake]

has to be unbound gold @midnight anvil

actually..

[humble wagon]

ah ok thanks fun

[candid lake]

i think unbound?

[rose wren]

iirc some1 did roster, use discord search to find post

[midnight anvil]

jesus it is 34k gold to go from NV to south kurzan 🙁

[candid lake]

yeah i remember roster bound but idk

[midnight anvil]

I have roster bound as I only do solo mode dungeons but yeap I cannot use it lol

Lol I am aware of that. So is there one in the express event or not?

[bold geyser]

haven't started it yet, i would be surprised if they give you any free relics

but someone who has progressed it can correct me if they do

lots of legendary volumes recently, however

[past bramble]

why i cant collect guardians will? no i didnt today or in years

[shut fog]

Hey gang, feel like I've hit a huge progression wall already as a returning player. Stuck at 1666ilvl on my main. 1658 on my primary alt, and 1599 on my third character. Each character is lacking on some resource or another (gold for main, leapstones on 2nd character, everything kind of on third). I'm just not really sure where to go from here, even with the Challenge Express on my main I just feel like I can't make any meaningful progress toward the endgame without waiting a week just to tap my gear a couple more times. I feel like I'm almost missing something. Any recs on where to spend my time in the game to get more out of it after I've done weekly gold raids (and then some additional raids beyond that for resources), dailies, and such?

paradise

its on your war map, its a different form of content where you progress with a different set of gears to get material rewards

[bold geyser]

New or returning players without saved up resources will naturally hit a wall, you are not supposed to hit 1700 day1 or week1, it's not realistic, the issue** (if it can be called that) is that the express gives mats in bursts instead of a bit every next mission

And since you're attempting to level several characters at a time, it's even more obvious you will lack resources, gold especially

And honestly, that's good, people get to 1700 or even 1710 with a darn low CP amount and complain because "unfair gatekeeping", when they just rushed one out of the many several power gains in the game

Just play the game, get your horizontal content done (Enlight/skill pots, runes and whatever else) and slowly get up in ilvs

do hell keys disappear at the end of the week

[bold geyser]

they do not

they will at the end of the season, though

[vapid bluff]

a lot of times when some people are talking, i can see their chat bubble, but their messages don't register under my chat box. from my screen, nobody called EYE, but everybody else could see it being called. i figured that person blocked me? but he says that he didn't. wonder why this is?

[nova burrow]

are last gate bosses nerfed for challenge expess?

[paper walrus]

echidna has higher hp

but everything else has lower hp

than solo

[paper walrus]

its some bug due to region merge

in general it seems to happen when the lobby has a mix of east and west, but the affected players can be kind of random

[nova burrow]

i see. i just soloed act 3 and didn't wanna go thru dying 3 times in gate 3 again

[dim pulsar]

well g3 is a bit annyoing

since he focus u 100% of time, when in normal raid ur not his focus 100% of time

[paper walrus]

its better if he aggros you

its much easier to dodge

[dim pulsar]

well depending what u do

if u move like chicken its not great

[sterile sonnet]

can someone tell me how to survive the netherworld hell keys? are you supposed to have time stop?

[dim pulsar]

u cant

if u land on uneven floor and ur key said ur fine on even then u die

[shy chasm]

If you die once you stop there

[sterile sonnet]

lol so whats the point? is it just a gamble and if you make it you make it and if you dont you dont?

[dim pulsar]

STOP AFTER DEATH, thats the point

[shadow pasture]

just quit and claim if you die once

[dim pulsar]

its x5 normal rewards

[sterile sonnet]

oh okay i didn't realize you could quit and obtain rewards. never have done hell keys previously

[dim pulsar]

floors at 80++ are GEMS soo u cant just simply go TS and get to floor 80 and grab free gems

[sterile sonnet]

so basically you get 1 free death and after that death you just "quit"? my fault for not seeing "quit and claim" haha

[nova burrow]

what is the purpose of the blue crystals?

[bold geyser]

basically, yeah

the rewards are different than regular hell, and many of them are roster-minded instead of character, which can be nice

[lament zealot]

just double checking the order here is the karmic level i need to upgrade in order?

[dim pulsar]

can buy mari shop stuff

[bold geyser]

you can, if you're very lucky, run out the whole key and get to the end, it's just difficult and requires very good rolls

[nova burrow]

i was told not to waste them on that lol

[dim pulsar]

leap rank 1 -> ENLIGHT Rank6

[dim pulsar]

thats good, u either buy AURA with it or lifeskill pots

[bold geyser]

they're just a premium currency, use them on whatever you want

[dim pulsar]

or AstroGems tickets they are fucking PRICY as hell

[shy chasm]

Bc I general is expensive as hell

[bold geyser]

wayyyyyyyyyyy more than it used to be

wayyyyy

[dim pulsar]

well its not "me" issue

[nova burrow]

okkk thank u

[dim pulsar]

it just that the exchange went to the MOOON for wtf reason

[bold geyser]

astrogems i think?

something more recent

[dim pulsar]

maybe, but

still its INSANE

[shy chasm]

Literally 100k for aura

[dim pulsar]

even more than 100k

[bold geyser]

used to be like

30k or something

[dim pulsar]

at this point i would go with real $$ aura sub

ofc that is if u DONT play ANY party raids

[bold geyser]

shit i bought soooo many card slots with bc back in the day for a tiny fraction of the current cost

[dim pulsar]

btw they just gave +125151 slots while we had to buy them

[lament zealot]

should i used the golden stuff here ?

[dim pulsar]

yes if u want it NOW

or wait for hell keys free taps

[bold geyser]

difficult to get out of it

[lament zealot]

i'm really not in rush to do anything lol

[dim pulsar]

then would wait

no point in burning gold now

[lament zealot]

i still have no idea whats even the hell keys lol

[bold geyser]

they're part of paradise

tiny baby diablo portal dungeon

[dim pulsar]

go to Paradise -> exchange ticket -> run 1 time of CRUCIBLE -> Boom u just got urself in ranking to get weekly 3x rare key

to get mats in HELL tab of PARADISE

if u want MORE mats u would have to beat the bosses and farm Paradise ONLY equipment

but thats a bit ... hellish now

[bold geyser]

elysian gets you more paradise gear to get better crucible rankings to earn better hell keys to run to get random free shit

[dim pulsar]

note that u would have to be 8++ milions of paradise power to get into better keys rewards

its doable but its annoying

[nova burrow]

i think i fucked up my honing again

[bold geyser]

yeah im not sure what top 30% is these days

[dim pulsar]

[nova burrow]

[lament zealot]

yeah i done those last week and i got 3 keys via mail

[bold geyser]

they should always display the person on the bubble so we know whats what

[dim pulsar]

around 6++ milion, depending on class

[lament zealot]

cheers guys

[warm field]

[nova burrow]

das how i understand it

[bold geyser]

(4 if you place really really really highly)

[nova burrow]

ok then i did mess up my gk's

[dim pulsar]

ya best would be ah20 before doing normal at this point ur at

[nova burrow]

yeah

[bold geyser]

bricked

[nova burrow]

i'm doing all 20 as much as i can

i'm out of shards

[bold geyser]

thats the issue 🙂

[lament zealot]

cube can be done solo? i tried matching nobody showed up

[dim pulsar]

thats like beating the lvl15 boss and be 12/14m+++ power

[bold geyser]

absolutely

[warm field]

Yes

Cubes are pretty easy for most classes solo

[bold geyser]

p sure its just top 100 right?

so you're looking at 30MM+

[dim pulsar]

no, i had top 30 with 22m power

but now its proly near the top80

[bold geyser]

the reason for the suggested order is most item level you can get with limited mats

[lavish mortar]

U play deadge class

[dim pulsar]

thing is above 8m power u gotta be RLY LUCKY

[dim pulsar]

noo, we have 8k active 1680++ artis in EU

its the ironMan thats only 3k

[nova burrow]

i'm out of abidos now

xDDD

[lavish mortar]

8k rats maybe..

[warm field]

Rip

[dim pulsar]

and 8k means nothing cuz its ALL about LUCK

https://tenor.com/view/tantrum-kicking-gif-23507491

[bold geyser]

stuck for the time being then 😄

[lavish mortar]

More deadge = less luck need

[dim pulsar]

nah

[nova burrow]

im gonna cry hehe

[dim pulsar]

dont, its nothing bad, just next week ilvl honing

[bold geyser]

thats, uh, the whole game

[dim pulsar]

damn waiting the whole Week is rough

[lavish mortar]

This game is just waiting for next week simulator

[warm field]

Surely you get it next week.

[bold geyser]

thats why fomoing is extra silly

cause even if you skip ahead, you're still waiting for the following week

[zenith jewel]

if not following express, do i hone from 1600 to 16200 to eat the box? which would be the

[dim pulsar]

u hone to 1620 u open tha box

and then u transfer the gear to it

boom ur T4 1640ilvl

[zenith jewel]

its getting expensive from here

ty

[zenith jewel]

where the put the elixir vendor

[vast oriole]
