She knew the flow didnt look good and was job hunting in advance

[rose wren]

o7

[quick blaze]

I've completed the arkesia tour, im at 1647 gs and im wondering what to do next to improve

[lavish mortar]

If they love rice... perfect game

[lavish mortar]

Did you apply the challenge express?

[quick blaze]

I believe so

But I cant kill that 25bill hp boss yet

I dont even have my 10 epic engravings for deathstrike yet

[rose wren]

complete enlightment points, open the codex ingame and ull see the places to obtain where its not checked off, some r rng and long to gain

every1 start at like epic/legend engraving

[quick blaze]

what do you mean, dont i get epic engravings from market or dungeons?

[shy chasm]

What color are your engravings

Like when you press p and go to engravings

[quick blaze]

I'm looking the purple ones

to get legendary

I need death strike ones no?

[lavish mortar]

Everyone has epic engravings maxed out to start now

[rose wren]

class engraving doesnt exist anymore

[quick blaze]

I see

how come i have books for deathstrike sharpshooter engraving

[shy chasm]

You dont

[quick blaze]

do i just bin them then

[shy chasm]

That stuff is in your ark passive now

Class books are gone

[quick blaze]

But I do

Agh, its description says "no lomger in use, dismantle for 1 silver" lmao

[shy chasm]

Also echidna should be doable although probably just slow

Did you watch a guide for it

[bold geyser]

artifact of a bygone age, don't need to worry about them anymore 🙂

[quick blaze]

I cba tanking that for an hour when I can progress my gear

[bold geyser]

loooong time ago you could trade them in for some minor swag but now they're just junk

[quick blaze]

Managed to hone my wep to +14 but I dont have the gold to go further

[shy chasm]

You still need to do the raids they aren't optional

You also get gold from the each of the milestones

[quick blaze]

oh I know, but I can creep to them im just lost on how to get a little power

Like how do i get more engraving stones now

or re-roll them

[shy chasm]

They give you a 7/7 stone you dont need any

[quick blaze]

with Lv 2, lvl2 is that max now?

[shy chasm]

No lvl 3 but thats 9+

[rose wren]

its insanely low chances to get 3

[shy chasm]

7/8 is 2

[quick blaze]

agh i see

how do i get the engraving points higher then

[shy chasm]

Wdym

[quick blaze]

I mind having like 5 keen ect

looking at my engravings I have like 2 grudge, 2 keen

sorry for stupid questions, I just rtemember little from way back when I p2w to 1450

[shy chasm]

Theres nothing else to do for now other than get your legendary books from the echidna raid

[bold geyser]

stone system is a lot like it used to be, it's jsut self-contained now instead of interacting with jewelry

and gives a stone-specific bonus to whatever engravings you have on it

[quick blaze]

I see i see

what about this orb bs

is there legit anything i can do to creep before attacking this 999b hp solo boss

[shy chasm]

Thats paradise its a new system for getting bound mats

Your gear doesn't matter there just skills

[azure isle]

if i make 3 childs do they share skin codex

[shy chasm]

Yes

[azure isle]

nice

[quick blaze]

so I have to clear this solo boss raid before getting ark core etc?

[azure isle]

act 3 and 4?

[shy chasm]

Thsts 1700+

[bold geyser]

paradise gets you the orbs, and through it hell keys to get various mats

[quick blaze]

Agh ok, welp, time to tank ts out

[azure isle]

theres a lot of act 3 parties

[bold geyser]

core stuff comes later from act 4 and finale raids

[shy chasm]

The orb you asked about before is paradise

[azure isle]

3 normal mode rest (cba to count) hard

[shy chasm]

That one isn't ilvl gated

[quick blaze]

tbf tho did yous all do this boss first time?

[azure isle]

act 4 3 normal 1 hard lobbies

[shy chasm]

I did it but its just slow really

[azure isle]

itd be 3 screenshots for act3

[quick blaze]

Damn, skill issue for me then

[azure isle]

i lied its 2

[bold geyser]

if you're talking about the crucible boss, it depends, everyones char starts out weak af so you get gear to get stronger, it's like its own separate roguelite mode

[azure isle]

look at the scroll bar

[quick blaze]

Wait hold up, im getting mixed messages

Kenobi says I have to tank out this boss before anything else

[bold geyser]

start with which boss you're asking about 🙂

[azure isle]

theres 2 more hard below

[quick blaze]

I physically cant progress without doing this boss, correct? overture

[azure isle]

gl

[vast oriole]

i did all my act 4 today hm without any issue

people just dont do that raid at that hour

and its 1am

yeah, meant for that message #lost-ark-help message

[bold geyser]

oh, the challenge version is apparently comparatively difficult, but yes you need to beat that to continue the challenge express

[azure isle]

ill be able to feed you more soon

[shy chasm]

yes you need the legendary books aswell as the 20k gold at the end

[wheat nimbus]

https://tenor.com/view/wombat-moment-gif-17950728288530672465

[azure isle]

im gonna make an army of children

blame the presets theyre so cute

[shy chasm]

its doable on ilvl youve just gotta play safe and learn the patterns

[bold geyser]

disgusting...mormon behavior?

big same

[rose wren]

region crashout?

[bold geyser]

alright time to try to beat this hellish challenge echid

[rose wren]

"download more ram"

[vast oriole]

did you restart router

i know its ai

but

Lost Ark error 10010 ("Server authentication failed") typically indicates connection issues, server downtime, corrupted cache, or VPN interference. Immediate fixes include restarting the game/PC, validating Steam files, updating Windows time, disabling VPNs, or repairing EasyAntiCheat.

[rose wren]

o windows sucks when storage is red

[vast oriole]

CAN BE ANYTHING

[bold geyser]

are those both SSDs?

oh its split up

[rose wren]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[vast oriole]

[bold geyser]

i still wouldn't fill it to 6gb remaining tho....

[vast oriole]

they were cheap

[bold geyser]

everything's cheap if you're rich

[vast oriole]

idk

[rose wren]

that would fill ram instead of actual storage

[vast oriole]

i have nothing

oh

[rose wren]

nah

[vast oriole]

yea

i have the p

protection thing

till october

i thought i would have a job and a new pc by that time

but lol

i guess ill need to make the switch xdd

yeah

i finished

and now i cant find work lol

i applied to a survey thing for this summer

so at least i can get some moni

cant wait to knock at doors at 40C

[sullen spire]

does nyone know what we exactly "lose" from using the express on a higher lvl char? it's not even that high it's 1466 gl then im thinking of using on but i mean, usually they'd just give you stuff that you can't even use which i can't even think of that can't be used since we won't be getting any t3 stuff anyways

[vast oriole]

tn ?

it was -46 like 3 weeks ago...

[vast oriole]

gold

[rose wren]

mad

[vast oriole]

well tbh i dont really want to interact with the us rn

[sullen spire]

i guess i can make a 1640 osmething else an d transfer the pass to it if i miss out on anything

[vast oriole]

i said you will miss out gold

like 20k max

its not even much who cares

[sullen spire]

thats a lot for me lol thanks ill just use it on another char

[lavish mortar]

Why is a mod having general chat discussion in help chat...

[vast oriole]

why not

its calm

[lavish mortar]

[bold geyser]

ugh same

[rose wren]

ur most liklely to spend that 20k on honing to reach next stage of the express or more

[vast oriole]

like 2 weeks ?

or a bit more

[lavish mortar]

I don't wanna interact with merica
And im merican

[bold geyser]

i think challenge echidna is thicker than she needs to be

[vast oriole]

its rolling out slowly because no more tenor api

[bold geyser]

but the difficulty has been overblown 🙂

[lavish mortar]

Yea she has a ton of hp for no reason lol

[vast oriole]

but dont post a screenshot with a filtered word please

[lavish mortar]

Thicc thighs save lives...

[vast oriole]

yeah everyone noticed it

https://tenor.com/view/black-cat-borisich-gif-1457411804530601879

im thirsty

wait wrong channel

[lavish mortar]

Go get darek then

[vast oriole]

yep 20k

thats the 1640 one

1660 is another 20k

but i think they would have access to it

i started express at 1685 and i can pick up the 1680 one

for sure

[sullen spire]

i like both lol its all good

[vast oriole]

just use it on a char you want to play

[sullen spire]

it was either gl or ws

[vast oriole]

wildsoul

[lavish mortar]

Go slayer

[sullen spire]

already have one

[lavish mortar]

Make MORE

[sullen spire]

no

[rose wren]

go find ur bowl

[vast oriole]

it gets better with ark grid iirc

(like 90% of classes)

[lavish mortar]

Both specs are always gonna be slow

One cuz charge skills
One cuz skills are very delayed/slow to come out

They are working

Afaik they work... Just not cross region..

[bold geyser]

its still too complicated to try to decrypt

if we can get 2 or 3 people w/ the same level of char we could probably science it

but ughhhh

[vast oriole]

it is working

but

eu codes doesnt work on na

and vice-versa

because smilegate is fucking dumb

[bold geyser]

doesn't matter if they're low, they just need to have the same number of skill points and gems

if anyone EU has a 1620 char w/ all enlightenment pots and skill pots at level 70 hmu 🙂

[lavish mortar]

Too much work, not enough reward

And I dont trust them to do that without bricking everything if im being honest

They cant even balance obvious outliers

[paper walrus]

read marks

[bold geyser]

strikes

no 😈

(i have no idea what that is)

[paper walrus]

its how many people have read the message

[lavish mortar]

Thats a guardian

And

Rng

Is a fickle mistress

[bold geyser]

ᶜᵃʳᵈ

[lavish mortar]

Thera an achievement that gives 1 copy iirc

[bold geyser]

think it only drops from that guard?

[lavish mortar]

[paper walrus]

you

theres no guards

[bold geyser]

i also dun have it

[lavish mortar]

There's one guard

[craggy wedge]

so it wont let me except my soul eater sythe skin that i purchased?

[vast oriole]

cinema is when i have more cards than my bf when he does 3x my guardians

[paper walrus]

no just dont rng that mech

oh that one

yeah just dont get that pattern

[bold geyser]

*from that guard(ian)

[paper walrus]

yeah just dont get that mech

[vast oriole]

which one?

[paper walrus]

charging as water shares the same mech timing as like 3 other variations

and all 4 is skipped with grenade

[vast oriole]

hes not

[paper walrus]

its a skin

[vast oriole]

yeah the box was bugged so its bound till its fixed

[craggy wedge]

got ya

[vast oriole]

cant use or anything

[lavish mortar]

The only way to get krapthios is doing guard and being lucky

[somber steeple]

yo guys how long is this quest?

[vast oriole]

like 30 ish mins?

something like that

[somber steeple]

aigh thanks

[bold geyser]

jubilants are from fate embers

goooood luuuuuuck

[humble wagon]

what do i do with the blue and green astro gems are they worth anything or should i just dismantle them?

[rose wren]

https://d3irh93dd5ckql.cloudfront.net/content/odds-en-US.html drop rate, maybe ull see the card in there

[humble wagon]

should i be rolling the green and blue gems?

[rose wren]

guess ags hasnt updated o welp

[paper walrus]

dismantle greens

you can fuse greens too but

its also gambling

fuse or dismantle greens your choice

[graceful dragon]

General rule of thumb is:

• Fuse 9/10 cost blues with 8 cost greens to try to get 8 cost blues

• Cut any 8 cost blues or purples

• Cut 10 cost purples

• 9 costs are typically the worst, fuse them at your own discretion

[graceful dragon]

Also once you have an extreme excess of greens (like 50+) you can open the 8 cost ones and see if the initial roll is good, if it is then you can tap once. If it’s good you can keep going, if the first tap fails then just end

[lavish mortar]

Go to books
Incomplete
Mark all cards you dont have maxed

[graceful dragon]

@humble wagon There was a typo in the first line, please reread if you did already

[rose wren]

dont think so, bookcollection shows incomplete only, golden is max awakening

[humble wagon]

tyvm this is verry helpful

[lavish mortar]

Juat look for one's that aren't X/X, but are X-1/X

Prob gotta scroll to near bottom tho

Nukman illusion stone collection

New collectible

[bold geyser]

still have to do that

zzz

the other two in the first pic are from A4 and Finale

[rose wren]

whatever bosses require

[bold geyser]

humans gonna be good for serca

[rose wren]

list somewhere

[lavish mortar]

Idk if people look at ur card bonuses tbh

[vast oriole]

they dont

[bold geyser]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vSWomwEyQkLe53mTsULQLDWyY5vjDa5PJFeRNSQaWRrynPG50bKvO8EFACQUo-2aUU1ilJyjSu4P4Ea/pubhtml#gid=1155346997

gatekeeping demon damage was a thing apparently

[lavish mortar]

Gods dmg is the only truly relevant one anyways

[vast oriole]

the dpscheck is nonexistent

its like 80m

no im not joking

idk, i only do hm

[graceful dragon]

This is like a really weird variable to ask — entirely dependent on each person’s roster lol

[vast oriole]

ye

[graceful dragon]

If your entire NM roster is decently geared you’ll only run with decently geared people

[lavish mortar]

Just look at uwuowo stats

Best youll get

[graceful dragon]

then your averages per run are easily ~200

If you’re ratty then the averages in your run probably sub 150

[bold geyser]

they seem to have changed it from uwu?

[lavish mortar]

Idc its always uwu

[graceful dragon]

it’s lostark.bible now

[vast oriole]

you type uwu and it still redirects

[graceful dragon]

I wish they kept it officially uwuowo though… I liked how our stat site is like one of the only unique and goofy ones

every other game with a stat site is just game name + stat/looker/etc

You didn’t read what I said at all

[lavish mortar]

150-200

[graceful dragon]

My experience is 180-200 mill avg in my lobbies, your mileage will vary greatly because you might not get into lobbies that avg that

Depending on your characters own strength

[vast oriole]

pm them with the discord server, dont link them here

[coral solar]

hey o/ anyone knows how much combat power a lv8 gem give going from lv7? or at least how to find out

[zenith jewel]

?Progression

[buoyant dock]

Jump to Gear Progression Steps: #lost-ark-help message

[vast oriole]

you can test in trixion

but iirc, for me as a support it was around 20-30cp

per gem

[coral solar]

i see, ty ill try out trixion

[rose wren]

its either or, hit ilvl lose it or 30raid per

yes " cleared Gate 1 of the specified raid 30 times or less"

[ancient gazelle]

wat this on my alt

[livid fossil]

[errant pendant]

check universal storage?

[ancient gazelle]

not jus this one ch. like 3 of my alt

[livid fossil]

What the question

[ancient gazelle]

i have my gear on

[livid fossil]

You might need to go to wavestrwnd port to
Armor dude get the box for the next armor

[ancient gazelle]

ahh ill check it out

[livid fossil]

Check uni storage

[ancient gazelle]

nothing there

[livid fossil]

Then go to port

20k silver for the box

[ancient gazelle]

okayy got it

dang i gotta do voldis quest

@livid fossil thanks. i got it

[bold geyser]

there goes smilegate reaching for my wallet again

[coral solar]

guys >.>
i have a 1700 char with about 1760 Combat power.
but also another char at 1680 but has all mats for 1700, the problem is i could put the gold on the 1700 char and get their cp up abit to say 1800/1850
or put the gold on the 1680 for another 1700
x_x is it just a do what you like possition or is there a better aproach?

[vast oriole]

gtet the cp on your 1700 char

[lavish mortar]

Are you mokoko

[humble wagon]

coming back to the game after a long break can you not equip the legendary skin for the stats and have another skin on top anymore i dont see the option in the codex

[lavish mortar]

You can yeah

[bold geyser]

that's something i should get

[coral solar]

me? nope

[lavish mortar]

Then cp on 1700

[coral solar]

i see ty

[bold geyser]

i'm missing like 3 million int with my beggar outfit

[lavish mortar]

Same but gk so pricey

[bold geyser]

how do i actually go about it

i saw that in the bard calc and i realized i'd forgotten all about it

its what, 6% int?

[lavish mortar]

Buy off market and cry.

[bold geyser]

p good

[lavish mortar]

8% vs 4%

[bold geyser]

buy....straight up legendary skins off the market?

[lavish mortar]

Yea

Unless you got infinite pheons, its prob cheaper

[bold geyser]

i do have infinite pheons

[lavish mortar]

Then feel free to gamble

Maybe you win

[split kayak]

rij

[lavish mortar]

Maybe you go 60 tries at a 10% without hitting like me

[bold geyser]

is it probably more cost effective to do so

or is that copium

[lavish mortar]

Its copium unless you want stuff from the yoz jar shop

Like the trails or smth

[bold geyser]

so like accs its not worth the trouble

[lavish mortar]

Basically?

[bold geyser]

damn

also i dont think i have a weapon skin

so its 8% vs 3% 😄

[lavish mortar]

I just dont wanna drop half a mil per skin for my gk..

[bold geyser]

what would i buy with pheons?

[lavish mortar]

Cheap skins

For like 20k each

Dismantle

[bold geyser]

oh to scrap

ahhhhh

[lavish mortar]

Then open bozo jars urself

[bold geyser]

i have a few but where do you get more jars

[lavish mortar]

F4, for BC

[bold geyser]

aight

[lavish mortar]

Its about 500k avg you'd spend, ignoring pheons, for 1 leggo

But there's no pity so gl

[bold geyser]

each?

[lavish mortar]

Ofc?

[bold geyser]

damn

[lavish mortar]

500k for full set is like thae days price

[bold geyser]

can't just make it easy can they

am i permarat if i dont have a leggo skin

[lavish mortar]

Kinda yeah

[bold geyser]

ffffffffffffffff

genuinely totally forgot

[lavish mortar]

If youre near 1730, it likely is very cheap per dps/buff gained...

[bold geyser]

actually i think i still have that free one?

i'll check if i remember after this echid

i have a mountain of skins i dont use

[livid fossil]

I have jars sitting in my storage somewhere

[azure isle]

fuck that

this was a mistake

that cost me 50k gold

i cant do anything

i cant just play 2 classes forever

[bold geyser]

???

[azure isle]

what

[bold geyser]

why only two?

[azure isle]

cuz i only have two

[bold geyser]

oh

i mean if you're itching to play you can just grind up an alt

should be faster than it used to be

[livid fossil]

Still have to slog through story

[bold geyser]

i mean yeah but it's better than swiping if you're just tryna play more

otherwise we get another pp in like...july

[void chasm]

why can i not open this box

[lavish mortar]

In-game announcement below chat box

[bold geyser]

some sort of bug with the chests, its in the ticker by the chatbox ingame

[void chasm]

oh thanks mb

[coarse apex]

Is there a any reason for me to stay with my relic weapon and not craft the ancient after 1660? I've seen people do that

[bold geyser]

just need to make mokokos nigh indestructible and a mokoko screwing up a mech not affect anyone else

done

[tender flicker]

Upgrade to ancient allows pushing 20+, can use the bit of gold for other stuff before that

[bold geyser]

the mokokos?

damn

for group mode?

the ghosts?

OH

g1

everyone should know the mechs 😄

[lucid axle]

is this chest bugged?

[bold geyser]

oh sure

[lavish mortar]

"I dont like gate keeping but im mad I cant clear"

[lucid axle]

i thought they would of fixed everything this patch

[bold geyser]

but i'm of the "wipe twice because people don't know the mechs, clear third time because now everyone knows the mechs" school of thought

[lucid axle]

mokoko still bugged and chest bugged

[bold geyser]

sure sure

i dunno i dont sweat a wipe or two

[balmy plank]

Read the fancy notice under your in game chat

[tender flicker]

Idk, I think its fine that difficulty is introduced gradually. Like G1 hard brel realistically its the one mech that can wipe, I don't think its that bad. Otherwise mokokos are really gonna have a bad time when they hit endgame.

[wheat nimbus]

If I go beyond 1710 rn, does my Mokoko Status change to expert and I gain those coins instead?

[bold geyser]

assuming you get into and complete runs, yes, but you're competing with other people who also dont have the leaf

[tender flicker]

You lose mokoko status and get red coins. Can't go back, so only progress if you're really ready. People will judge your character and alts more harshly compared to a mokoko.

[wheat nimbus]

Im 1709.83, its like I tap
So I let this one expire?

I guess I'll just sit here then, nothing ever gave me more fomo than the Lost Ark community in terms of raids, I don't wanna feel bad for not knowing something

ya I figured id instead spend all my stuff on Karma and Ark Grid now

[wet dagger]

for free karma taps assuming you have everything at rank 6 already is enlightment the best option to just use the taps on for weapon power % for dps/

[lavish mortar]

Yes

[wet dagger]

whats 2nd best

leap tree?

[split kayak]

it takes longer to craft weap (30 vs 75 mats)
and crafting armor first is better since it gives evo points

[wet dagger]

oh evo is just max hp

[lavish mortar]

Leap is only HA dmg
Evo for some hp

[tender flicker]

Leap = hyper awakening dmg. Evo = hp.

[wheat nimbus]

Do Paradise chests drop the free things for it? o.o

[wet dagger]

i was thinking it was evo damage

[wheat nimbus]

Im here rn

[tender flicker]

Destiny boxes give free taps in 1680+ paradise boxes

[lavish mortar]

Your cp very low.

[tender flicker]

You'll likely have a hard time getting into normal kazeros

[lavish mortar]

Its karma time

[wheat nimbus]

Ja I mean I recently started again I dont have crazy engravings or gold for Ark Grid/Karma

[lavish mortar]

Ark grid is a huge time sink early on

Just cuz getting cores is roufh

[wheat nimbus]

I figured its not worth unless im like rich rn, or I wait for dropping some ancient thing

[wheat nimbus]

Okay good to know!

So just play and hoard?

I have like 90k red shards accumulated but im just dirt poor xD

[tender flicker]

Basically prep as much as you can before losing mokoko status to minimize gatekeep

Unless you're running in a group/with friends, etc

[lavish mortar]

I got like 800k reds
And I want moar

[wheat nimbus]

Ugh ya I wish there were more 4ppl raids, I dont have 7 frens lol

[wheat nimbus]

you greedy...

the one for weapon honing

Destruction Stone

[split kayak]

just find learning party lol

[wheat nimbus]

oh sorry 🙈

[split kayak]

rather than relying on getting carried every time

[wheat nimbus]

didnt even open any battlepass chests

ay ya my mistake.. I got like 2,4mil on those

[split kayak]

solo nm hm are different

[wheat nimbus]

Its not that I wanna get carried but I wanna actually be accepted into groups o: I mostly know my stuff, but I dont have the playtime or moneys to have high numbers on everything

A second char is not that worth either rn or? I used my event on this

I mean I have SOME gold gain through those but

they're not getting me rich idk how worth it is to invest

Thats like my one downside of Lost Ark, I enjoy the game and playing raids and all, but within like 2-3 days I got nothing I can do thats "enjoyable" just repeated grind to one day be able to do more

yeah it started at like 1680 and was my favorite class o:

That really grabbed your attention he

But yeah I guess

[tender flicker]

Unfortunately it can be kinda hard to get more playtime without alts, notably higher lvl alts

[wheat nimbus]

Ya like I would LOVE to play other classes or try them out atleast in Engame, but the cost of doing that is absurd

[tender flicker]

If you’re trying to build a larger roster, people generally split the events to different characters for future reference

[wheat nimbus]

Dont kinkshame omfg (i wanna say that having that in there is a joke...)

[wheat nimbus]

Ja within the next Event I'd get something else up
Im a bit sad I realized too late they made Artist DPS a thing, idk how viable that actually is but i'd be finally able to do something on my own as support class lol

you're just hypnotized by my cow fit

mind controlled even

Do people go into raids as dps tho? Or is it exclusively so you can do solo content

[candid lake]

some people do

but it's like

rare

like 1 in 1000 runs

[wheat nimbus]

well not yeeeeeet

[candid lake]

it's almost bottom tier dps from uwu tho

[wheat nimbus]

Ive been saying im gonna do a scrapper and get it up for the past 3 years now
But whenever I play and theres an Event going, something comes up.. and next times its gonna be dps artist

[cunning haven]

Hello, if I buy the P2W 3k RC Express Pass extension at the end of my Express Challenge, can I still claim all previous rewards?

[wheat nimbus]

But shes not Artist :c

If only they knew how good my whale impression is

woOoOOOooooOo

[lavish mortar]

Yes

[wheat nimbus]

Infighter in Korea I think? Big fist girly

[candid lake]

better than current scouter evo

KEKW

[bold geyser]

the worst scouter is still better than the worst dps artist 😄

wait what language are your names in

[candid lake]

but recurrence

has the higher best parse

👀

[bold geyser]

i kinda like the new mach anims its looks cooool

[candid lake]

u really wanna see @young tendon

[frigid sorrel]

Is there any way to see the damage done by others? Since I can only see my own when I play, and someone left this comment on a mordum.

[candid lake]

4k-5k cp

LMAO

[frigid sorrel]

[candid lake]

through

"illegal" methods

:3

[frigid sorrel]

So, should I report that person? 🤔

[candid lake]

u want mordum?

g3

4k-5k cp

[bold geyser]

you probably have an argument for it

[candid lake]

then what do you want?

like?

u gotta state what cp or what settings

[bold geyser]

its possible they can tell by some other metric, if the group is splitting dps at all

[candid lake]

all

1700+

[frigid sorrel]

Thanks

[bold geyser]

first rule of bible study is you don't talk about bible study

[candid lake]

artist dps isnt too bad

once u get ark grid tho

the build peeps are going is you get full meter with 1 skill

but your z is lower dmg

but honestly

i find dps pala the worst worst feeling

[bold geyser]

bard is distracting with the big single hits 😄

[candid lake]

i hate the x

b/c of the stacking mechanic

that is RNG

[wheat nimbus]

Also! Why are there no Leap Essences in the Event this time.. I have like 100k worth of Life essence potions and my mind melts only thinking about burning through that...

[candid lake]

like ??????

it kinda feels shit that u just send it at usually like

20-40 stacks

instead of stacking full for max dmg

and dont forget it's alos a charging skill

LMAO

[bold geyser]

wait i have something for this

[candid lake]

dps bard is kinda satisfying tho

ngl

[viscid osprey]

did they change guardian raids? I played it and it felt like my character got 80% cooldown reduction

[lavish mortar]

If it was scorpo, that's normal

[bold geyser]

yeah i think they just lowered the hps

[viscid osprey]

it was argeos

[split kayak]

i like this part

[sullen solstice]

+18 AH 20 full set, ah 40 weap next even on supp?

[lavish mortar]

Do you want ilvl or cp/better buff

[sullen solstice]

i mean I kinda want both

[lavish mortar]

Work towards +30 all and 40 weapon then

[sullen solstice]

already gave up on hm armoche at release anyways

[lavish mortar]

If you wanna stay koko leafd, them 40 weapon and like 3.5 armors to 30ah

[sullen solstice]

almost done with weap 40

I got 10 cube chests do I do them or get hell keys for progression?

[bold geyser]

gems are always good, hell can be hit or miss

[sullen solstice]

if the reward table I found is still up to date it would be 2 lvl 6 gems

[wet dagger]

for astrogems which ones are you supposed to use the stability, solidtiy, or immutability

[cunning haven]

Hello did you figure this out? Im having the same issue

[balmy plank]

Read the notice under the in game chat

[faint cedar]

stability for early activation, solidity (if thats the 9 pont) for min maxing side node stats

lower willpower starting cost = generally better if youre looking for 3/5s to get your nodes active on a core

basically the only one thats irrelevant is 10s since the max you're relistically gonna get is a 5/5

[molten grove]

Anyone know how to export game settings from main account to alt? Or have to do manually?

[nova burrow]

wym

is it the same steam acct?

[molten grove]

Diff

[bold geyser]

uhhh should be......

sec

[molten grove]

I found the txt file where supposedly saves this but pasting it to other folder does nothing since it’s apparently server sided

[bold geyser]

ah i may not be of any help then

[sullen solstice]

alright i got advhone weap 40 done

[nova burrow]

gj

gz

[sullen solstice]

https://lostark.bible/character/CE/Bardtism

What can I improve besides bracelet, grid and enlight pots?

[shadow pasture]

getting relic magik stream

[bold geyser]

mine (i think) is an xml file in Steam->steamapps->common->Lost Ark->EFGame->Config

[shadow pasture]

besides that you already know what to work on

[bold geyser]

that's where you copied it from?

[sullen solstice]

thats on my list right next to full 8s

so expensive zzz

[bold geyser]

full magick stream is cheaper 😄

[shadow pasture]

prio getting relic magik

[molten grove]

Will try this path again after I get home just to make sure, ty ser

[sullen solstice]

i mean I can swap HA for crushing fist for more cp as well

might be able to get 1900cp before 1710

[bold geyser]

like i said, if thats what you already did then it's just loa anticheat being finnicky, sorry 🙂

[sullen solstice]

without grid

[shadow pasture]

you have a good amount of combat score

1.8k without ark grid even active is very good

[molten grove]

If it worked for u then worth trying for me

Having to manually do it is 100000000x more annoying

[bold geyser]

nothing manually worked that's just where the most settings are =X

i can try logging off and editing it and see if it get vac banned

[sullen solstice]

1841, should be top10% once it updates

my valk was top1% with 1.7k at 1699 zzz

[shadow pasture]

ye just prio getting relic magick stream

it looks like your other classes will also benefit with those books max

[sullen solstice]

yeah gonna get it this week after raids

[shadow pasture]

everything else will come with time or too much gold

like full 8s

[bold geyser]

its about 200k on NA rn

but there aren't enough books so kinda moot

[sullen solstice]

230k ish on EUC

[bold geyser]

damn

still, thats a really good value compared to the other books

[sullen solstice]

oh yeah for sure

thats like... 1 adren XD

[bold geyser]

that and drops for half a mil is a solid boost

[sullen solstice]

ok so I kinda know what I gotta do, just not really sure about the order

first thing will be relic magick stream, but not sure about the order after that

[shadow pasture]

well grid and bracelet is just rng

grid is a fatter boost in power

but youre at the mercy of lost ark gods

[sullen solstice]

my 1700 artist needs karma still, should put her at 1800ish cp as well with relic magick stream

[lavish acorn]

Hello any skill code for guardian knight? (spec)

[sullen solstice]

i mean I have 2 relic selectors still

[shadow pasture]

you still got gems to cut from the looks of it

[shadow pasture]

i'd ask in GK class channel

id:customize

[sullen solstice]

got a few of those as well

[sullen solstice]

thats gonna happen purely through paradise bound gold tho i think, shes already sitting at 5k each leaps and abidos so I wouldnt feel bad picking gold a few times

my two 1670 artists need to get 1680 + solo mode builds so I can just insta smash raids on reset

[shadow pasture]

if you just want to play multiple chars instead of full juicing one char

then relic magik stream is tippy top priority

[sullen solstice]

well in an ideal world my bard gets HM ready until next raid release

thats not gonna happen tho

1720 very doable until then, 1730 unlikely

also my main issue is that I need my other two 1700s in a state that they get accepted into parties before I drop leaf

[shadow pasture]

is your valk going to be dps valk for the parties

or are you turning it into a supp

[sullen solstice]

https://lostark.bible/character/CE/Lilithvanastraea

currently shes looking like this, debating respecing tho

[shadow pasture]

1.7k is gud enuff for nm armoche

[sullen solstice]

oh theoretically for sure

just dont know if she gets accepted

realistically

[shadow pasture]

title will hard carry so

i'd say just abuse leaf till you can get 10x

and graduate by dropping leaf

your 1700s look good enough and nm armoche just falls over from a light fart

[sullen solstice]

137 roster level is an issue as well ngl

[shadow pasture]

not much you can really do about that

[sullen solstice]

and I am not comfortable enough with current raids yet that I could imposter being an alt roster

[shadow pasture]

they took out some roster exp farming methods like tower

[sullen solstice]

i get to 6 this week, so 1 more week + 1 individual clear after

[bold geyser]

i thought the title people wanted were like week 1 + 2 clears

whats the title for 10x act 4?

[sullen solstice]

Sentinel of the Abyss

[bold geyser]

and people actually care about that?

[sullen solstice]

no clue

[bold geyser]

hrm

well, good looks, thanks 😄

[shadow pasture]

better than nothing i suppose

[bold geyser]

small chance i get a respectable title for serca

short of that, they get what they get 😄

[shadow pasture]

up to ags

dunno if we are going to get frontier or not with serca

[bold geyser]

Mokoko Hunter

[nova burrow]

what should i pick from this box?

as a dreadful roar

[shadow pasture]

have you done ark grid before?

im assuming not for your dk

[nova burrow]

not yet for this gk

[shadow pasture]

i suggest picking soldity and destorition (9 cost ark grids) for future proofing since they have boss damage

if you want to just get your ark grid active

just pick stability or distorition

since those are the 8 cost gems

[nova burrow]

@shadow pasture which one should i pick from the core selection chest then?

[shadow pasture]

ask the class channel

[nova burrow]

rawr

[shadow pasture]

you can prob crlt+F it since its probably a super common question

[lament zealot]

whats the best chest to buy here?

[brisk bridge]

can't hone no silver, am i cooked?

[lament zealot]

😛

[lament zealot]

i wish we can trade hahahaha

[brisk bridge]

I am so cooked

[marsh grove]

34m isn't a lot 😵

[lament zealot]

but getting silver is easy tbh

[brisk bridge]

The hell accessories nuked my silver

[lament zealot]

Fate could you check my question please, whats the best chest to get?

[marsh grove]

small safe 200 each

is best value

500 is just for gamba lovers

[brisk bridge]

Small is consistent, big for gamba

[lament zealot]

ok thanks

[brisk bridge]

Always gamba

[lament zealot]

got the small ones went from 8k gold to 20k

[supple shoal]

guys how is arcana/slayer/gs doing now i used to love my arcana and thinking about powerpassing her its emperor also will i have problem in solo raids? it takes like 2-3 seconds until the damage lands, for slayer i played her (predator) on friends account how is that doing now did it change? and for gs how is she generally doing i came back after 2 years

[marsh grove]

arcana absolutely pumps if you're really good at it

GS is in a great spot with one of her builds, its super simple and does a lot of dmg

I dont play slayer

you can go to channels and roles in discord and join class specific channels

people can give more specific answers

all classes are viable, for solo especially since it's pretty low dps requirement

arcana higher ceiling for more dmg but difficult, gs for easy high dmg

[supple shoal]

tth?

[marsh grove]

yeah

I played GS on release and came back aug of 2025

its night and day

so strong

and super simple

[supple shoal]

i played gs all my life

but she sucked around 1580

kinda

[marsh grove]

like, you just use rifle skills off cooldown, and a few pistol skills here and there

so if u want a challenge then maybe not a good idea

cause its so ez haha

also doesn't need as many gems

cause most dmg is on 1 skill

[supple shoal]

oh

aight

[marsh grove]

its super fun tho

I love her

even if its simple

[supple shoal]

as long ss lvl7 t4 gems will be enought

[marsh grove]

low effort pumping

her dmg is realllly good right now

[supple shoal]

arcana is high effert pumping but i love her

[marsh grove]

I'm constantly amazed at just how much dmg arcana can do

at similar cp

[supple shoal]

i think ill make arcana

[marsh grove]

but idk how hard it is so

[supple shoal]

i mean arcana

is just brating keyboard

and reacting to cards you get

[split kayak]

not that simple

[supple shoal]

yeh

the thing is if i powerpass my arcana ill have to learn the new raids on her

whatever

[marsh grove]

if you're willing to put in the time and effort then it'll pay off

[supple shoal]

and shes fine off with lvl6-7 t4 gems right?

[marsh grove]

too much effort for me

yeah I mean

higher level gems are a luxury (if you're swiping)

hardest part of lost ark as a new/returning player is getting into raid

but you'll have an easier time either way with mokoko status

[supple shoal]

yeaa

[next rain]

anyone have skilll code for valkrie

dps

[split kayak]

class channel

[next rain]

can u pick me channel please

bc i cant see it

[split kayak]

id:customize

[marsh grove]

anyone know which queue is usually better

matchmaking*

for 1720 cubes

dps or supp?

[lament zealot]

i'm parking this character at this gs because its easy to do weekly valtan, vykas and brel solo on paladin, i was advised to increase gs to t4 yet i dont understand why?

i'm really not in rush to max my main its the gold i need only

[honest bane]

should i use juice mats for 1680-1700, +14-18 normal honing?

[paper walrus]

its much easier to hone up more now, you dont need gold to hone up in t3 now

[lament zealot]

i'm just worried that i might not be able to do the next raids on paladin solo

[marsh grove]

you can get to 1580? 1585 now for free

if u just do story

[paper walrus]

all the solo raids are decently easy

if you cant do them you can still jsut punch down

[marsh grove]

in general you should always be booking every tap for your chars up to 18

since you get a lot each time from solo shop

not worth using blue/red juice for 14-18 honing IMO

save it for AH

[lament zealot]

sorry about ton of questions, how do i know the story progress on this character now?

[honest bane]

ogey

[marsh grove]

go to stronghold and check Knowledge Transfer

Voldis is 1520

south kurzan is 1580

see which stories u have done

you're probably on voldis story

finish it for free 1580 gear

it's dirt cheap to make as many 1640 alts as u want with the recent changes

[marsh grove]

ah okay

so you can either pay the problem away

or manually do all those stories for roster exp / save gold

[lament zealot]

yeah this is to much lol

[honest bane]

also should i use unbound gold or should i keep that to buy sth else with

[marsh grove]

depends heavily on the situation

[honest bane]

valk legendary skin

[marsh grove]

its usually good to sit on at least a little gold

for books/scrolls

valk lege skin is probably omega expensive

haha

[honest bane]

lmao rip, yea i saw that there isnt even any on the market

time to put 3 paychecks into yoz, surely thats a smart decision

[marsh grove]

is it your main char you're talking about?

[honest bane]

yea made a valk with this express, got a 1640 wd and breaker too tho

but valk kinda fun

[marsh grove]

valk pumps

and has both dps and supp which is nice

I'd try to push 1700 maybe if I were you

more gold from chaos gate

and relatively easy? entry to act 4 with moko status

[honest bane]

dont i lose mokoko at 1700

[marsh grove]

updated this patch

[honest bane]

[lament zealot]

you get more gold from solo raids on t4?

[marsh grove]

to be lost at 1710.00

[paper walrus]

you get more gold for any higher raids

[honest bane]

[lament zealot]

oh i see

[paper walrus]

check https://lostark.nexus/raidrewards

[lament zealot]

silly me i thought it was fixed amount

[marsh grove]

only more gold for hard modes

no mokoko tokens from solo tho

[lament zealot]

talking about mokoko when i lose the mokoko tag?

i'd love to keep it for now lol

[paper walrus]

you arent going to lose it

it goes away at 1710

[lament zealot]

perfect

[honest bane]

did i input this correctly, weapon is +16, gloves +15

seems too cheap

aint no way 180k gets me there

[marsh grove]

event char is like 300k? gold from 1640 to 1700

unless ur unlucky

[honest bane]

wait thats ntb then

i can maybe do this by next week

[marsh grove]

terrible as a new player with 1 char and solo gold nerf

but yeah not bad if u have others

or are swiping

[honest bane]

got some lucky gold from guardians this week

50k and 25k

but yea with 1 char this is a fucking wall

[lament zealot]

i mean eventually he will catch up with events

[marsh grove]

yeah and I mean as a rat 1700 nobody wants you for GR

[lament zealot]

if i didn't have these alts already i swear i wouldn't make any new ones lol

[marsh grove]

as I said grayo, with t3 changes its the easiest time to make alts

can get to 1640 for just time invested, no gold

[split kayak]

[marsh grove]

at which point u can get good paradise mats and push more for free

[honest bane]

[marsh grove]

but its kind of slave labory with gold nerfs

can build an entire roster from 0

at the same time

now

[honest bane]

it was so easy to get my breaker to 1640, i was kinda stunned

[marsh grove]

as compared with before which was pure cancer

[split kayak]

for new player it's just matter of you want to sit through entire story or willing to save up gold just for KT

[marsh grove]

tower is gone now so you can't pump free easy roster level so

I'd say voldis + is worth doing

[split kayak]

story is better tho

[marsh grove]

even tho its annoying AF

after the 1st or 2nd time

[fading roost]

How does paradise funneling even work?

[split kayak]

roster exp + your alt aren't going to cover the KT gold anytime soon

[marsh grove]

get an account with 30 chars

funnel all their shit to 1 char

and swipe for tickets as well

[fading roost]

Ah I see

[honest bane]

what do ppl usually take here

[marsh grove]

no special / destiny/ fusion

thoughts?

[marsh grove]

what do you need? lol

[livid fossil]

Accessory gold

[honest bane]

good question

[outer mason]

if you plan to hone, Glacier's Breath is good value

[paper walrus]

gold, acc if you gamba, sup if pushing

acc kinda depends on what you already have

honestly fk the sup

[ancient gazelle]

can you not get this while playing solo?

[marsh grove]

nope

HM or solo shop only

[ancient gazelle]

dang i need 2

wait for 1 more week than

[marsh grove]

ran solo alrdy? cant run HM ?

[kindred grove]

what is the fastest way to spend life energy besides logging?

[carmine bay]

precisely at what ilvl do you lose mokoko?

[marsh grove]

1710.00

or 30 raid clears (per raid)

[marsh grove]

exca or hunting

probably exca

what does that mean

a new level 1 character doesn't have pet turned on automatically

idk how it is for powerpass chars

ok so then maybe you have to go turn it on

which is how it usually initially goes

[lament zealot]

if its not suitable then what chaos dungeon i'm supposed to do?

[marsh grove]

way off

do these

off of new menu u get after north kurzan story

"Kurzan Front"

[lament zealot]

oh found it, thanks fate

[marsh grove]

it doesnt auto loot

unless its on

so chances are people notice

quickly

one of the intro quests for the game is to summon pet I think

but yeah PP skips that quest so

I agree with u ye

[supple shoal]

when is advanced honing unlocked

[outer mason]

after completing Echidna Gate 1 (Overture)

[nova skiff]

how to set up gold aquisition character? I have only 3 gold earner characters out of 4. 1 Character for some reason cant earn gold from raids for 2 weeks

[outer mason]

Escape button > Gold Acquisition

[nova skiff]

lol i didnt get gold from previous week, dont understand why game cant automatically choose all characters as gold earners

[marsh grove]

at a certain point the first thing it does when you log in for the week is prompt you

to pick your gold earners

[split kayak]

question, for mordum hm stagger stage break mech, where you guide him to the orb, what mark did he place on the player?
im watching memo's but i dont see any mark

[outer mason]

it remembers your choice from last week
if all your characters were selected, it's going to select all your characters this week

[marsh grove]

its a debuff, idk if theres a visual aspect too

shows up here

and the boss will turn at you

[sullen solstice]

wait u dont need all enlight pots??

[marsh grove]

for max bonus you do

3 pots are 3 points each, 1 is 5

if you're missing a 3 point then your max is 98

max with all and karma is 101

[sullen solstice]

ah yeah im stoopid I already have 1

which cardset should I focus on finishing as a support after lwc30?

[split kayak]

so everytime it happens i should check the debuff bar

[marsh grove]

yeah I mean now that I think about it theres probably a mark on your character too

and him turing to face you dead on

is a giveaway too

[split kayak]

i'm trying to find the mark on memo's video but i cant see it

ohh nvm

it's the twin axe? hammer? icon

[marsh grove]

yarg

[sullen solstice]

any ideas?

im sitting on a lot of selectorsd

[marsh grove]

earth set is for mord but mord is already kind of a joke

fire set for act 4 is the only real choice imo

since it'll be relevant for longer

[sullen solstice]

so frozen wildfire protection?

[split kayak]

fire supp for act 4
dark supp for serca new guardian (spear master)

[marsh grove]

serca uses lwc

[lament zealot]

i think i screwed up once again.. i had bunch of these which i used to get honing mats... now i have to do the raid to get more?

[split kayak]

oh

[lament zealot]

any shop sell it?

[split kayak]

right, it's the 1730 guardian

[sullen solstice]

yes

wait for next week :D

[lament zealot]

which raid was giving these? i really forget lol

[split kayak]

overture/echidna hard mode

[sullen solstice]

echidna hm

[marsh grove]

u can get like 40+ a week

if u buy raid boxes

[sullen solstice]

you get 18 if you buy boxes

36 if you have Arcturus Buff

[lament zealot]

sigh

from now on not gonna spend anything i dont understand lol

[dry shadow]

i think solo shop has them

[sullen solstice]

solo shop has 10x weekly

[lament zealot]

yeah 10 only sadly

[split kayak]

if you're a mokoko maybe can try to find carry party

[sullen solstice]

doesnt matter, they already did the raid lol

[split kayak]

oh

right

unfortunate

[sullen solstice]

used eyes to buy honing box gamba

me with globes today, almost didnt get AH40 weap cuz of that

ok surely thats gonna finish my set RIGHT

[marsh grove]

really no rush

you should double check

[lament zealot]

wait i really cant find her

i've done brel only this week i guess

[sullen solstice]

find who

[marsh grove]

ill be doing act 4 HM on supp with LWC

wait no I lied

I have a plan

ghetto set

[lament zealot]

echidna

[sullen solstice]

bruh getting cucked by commons is crazy

[lament zealot]

why we cant use scales.. i have scales lol

[sullen solstice]

because scales are not AH materials? lol

[marsh grove]

he means the 0-10 ones

and idk, its just the design

im surprised you even found the store to rip your eyes

[sullen solstice]

XD

[marsh grove]

that shit is hard to find
