[rose jewel]

esther is not a sidereal

let me

just check

fuerzas aliadas

[quasi harness]

the second one from the left?

the multiple hands?

[rose jewel]

orquesta de arkesia

[quasi harness]

yeah, i pick that one? for wildsoul?

[rose jewel]

you can pick none and be fine

it wont matter your class is broken af

its either that or yoz optimista

[warped fox]

thanks

[outer mason]

what do you mean by "reset"?

[livid fossil]

What buff is good with dk

[rose jewel]

send a pic

classes have dif unique ones

[supple shoal]

like i have to go from floor1

or how does it work

[livid fossil]

Hold on let me change to dk

[outer mason]

you get 5 entries for elysian every week
you can enter any elysian level, as long as you have cleared the corresponding crucible level
for example you need to clear crucible 9 to enter elysian 10

[rose jewel]

no reset until next season

in short

[azure isle]

i like Run! for the ms cuz hellfire successor is slow

[supple shoal]

oh can i ask if im hardstuck on crucible 3 should i do elysian 3 twice?

closest i got to on crucible 3 is 99.49%

which is close

but last 2 tried below 90% probably becouse i play arcana

[outer mason]

if you're at 99.49% I would just try again until I clear kek

[outer mason]

otherwise if you really can't clear it, do 1 elysian to get more gear

[supple shoal]

yeah it was perfect triple T skill and i didnt

so idk

on arcana

ill give it last try honestly then i just do lvl3 elysian again

[azure isle]

run my beloved

or bring it on when i play dreadful roar

[livid fossil]

Spec run

[rose jewel]

run or bring it on

[azure isle]

id go run

[rose jewel]

you shouldnt even need ensemble, BUT if youre somehow struggling you can opt for that

having extra emergency ephernia if it even charges for the map wipe

in the end you shouldnt need any

git gudder and learn her patterns

[faint cedar]

Echidna chall is somewhat challenging even knowing patterns bc of the power you’re left off at

Not shocked if anyone new struggles

[rose jewel]

it was a low blow, but at the same time if you cant even clear that you're gonna struggle later

everywhere

[supple shoal]

which paradise orb should i choose for arcana?

[faint cedar]

Eh, it’s the first real drop off fight you do and id you’re unfamiliar she can be a hoe

Shield for util, reddish orange one for inflated cp

[rose jewel]

she is a hoe regardless

but the hp increase is what makes her hard

coz the more she lives the more patterns you see

[outer mason]

gg for clearing
Gentle Projection is nice for the shield

[rose jewel]

doesnt matter much, but bottom

you get them all in the end

and since damage ones scale off paradise power early on they suck

so shield is way more friendly

[rose wren]

r we gonna get the same repeated q about paradise orbs every seaon lol

[faint cedar]

Yes

[supple shoal]

had to run another elysian meaning i only got to lvl 4 elysian this week still mats are insane

[supple shoal]

aight thx

[faint cedar]

New players same questions, happens.

That’s why the channel exists

[supple shoal]

should i be honing my 1640 alts with bound mats+buy oreha or save everything for main to get to 1700 asap

[rose wren]

focus on main, ur a new player/returner?

[supple shoal]

returner yeah well its hard to explain my main is 1606 and one of my alts is 1640 (used powerpass) and other char i have the same type as main but i have it as alt and thats 1605 i only wanna play 3 chars probably maybe pushing more with next express

but i dont wanna play more then 4-5 becouse of burnout

[rose wren]

thats fine, play whatever amount u want

generally normally hone up with express event on chara

[rose jewel]

alt makes money, money used on current low ilv main, get main to t4 ASAP, not even a question

use express on main

profit

[supple shoal]

oh dont worry i will

[rose jewel]

meanwhile 1605 alt makes its own resources from paradise

[supple shoal]

my floorslinger is eating good as soon as i get to t4

[rose jewel]

but if you need to buy a couple orehas from growth shop, do it, more t4 chars is more money weekly

and it will pay by itself in a week or two

[supple shoal]

yeah im 100%sure i did either that or helltan with you

yeh

thx bro

its nice to see someone who you remember around

i hope i dont quit again

[rose wren]

o they release news not on the usual day

[livid fossil]

Calm down people we did it

Challenge complete

[rose jewel]

being time mf

https://tenor.com/view/clap-friends-ross-geller-david-schwimmer-gif-16832429

[supple shoal]

yeah man honestly i forgot how to have fun in the last year but im spending more time with friends returned to this game that once gave me so much joy

[livid fossil]

Engraving I can’t get to relic since they are same

Do i just hold on to them

[rose jewel]

the legendary books? whatever any alt uses

or whatever the front spec uses if you ever use her

[livid fossil]

whick one is better both from event

[rose jewel]

[faint cedar]

Right…

[sullen solstice]

yes u can

kek

[candid lake]

i think they

[azure isle]

tf

[sullen solstice]

look who I found

we also did a raid a few days ago

XD

https://tenor.com/view/cat-gif-15732275568813898827

[rose wren]

u know #lost-ark-discussions around

[sullen solstice]

had to make a new acc for reasons

[azure isle]

how long is nkurzan + rimeria

[shy chasm]

like ~2hrs

[shy chasm]

ye thats about 2hrs

[azure isle]

cool

[sullen solstice]

i was about to say lmao skip that shit

[azure isle]

i need the gold

to make a deathblade and play it again

[sullen solstice]

rimeria quest needs to be done for act4

or act3 idk one of the two

[azure isle]

its my alt

[sullen solstice]

holy alt acc

[azure isle]

its not an account

[sullen solstice]

how do u not have 20k for kt then

[rose wren]

weird how they not just list the whole region as luterra instead

[azure isle]

i have more than 20k

[sullen solstice]

guess its just split by msq lines

no

[azure isle]

it says there bruh

[sullen solstice]

its 1690 base + 20 ah

yes

[keen imp]

is this real or is the express bugged? the rewards are less than 1 tap on my weapon? did they forget a 0 on everything or?

[sullen solstice]

yeah no

thats correct

[shy chasm]

mats for express are kinda ss

ass

[azure isle]

express isnt juicy this time

[sullen solstice]

tell my 2 lvl 8 gems

[keen imp]

14 leapstones for the last raid challenge what the f...

[azure isle]

[shy chasm]

you get anoither honing box on the mordum channel

mordum panel

[sullen solstice]

its the clear reward my guy xd the challenges are what gives the big rewards

[rose jewel]

fake info washed mod, got no gems :<

[keen imp]

challenge gave me 48 horns no mats...i get mats for reaching 1690

ah well

[shy chasm]

[sullen solstice]

i mean if they gave u everything to hone etc. they could just give u a powerpass to 1700 no?

gotta work at least a little bit

[shy chasm]

oh its for 1690

ye this express is stinky

[sullen solstice]

its legit by far the best we had so far wdym xd

[shy chasm]

eh mats were scarce in this one

[sullen solstice]

oh yeah i will 100% cry about 20 shard bags while getting 2 lvl 8 gems LOL

[shy chasm]

[sullen solstice]

last page 2nd challenge 2nd chest

i think

[tender flicker]

Pretty sure the last express at base was better, the paid stuff is nice but doesn't really help with honing

[shy chasm]

i mean sure but it doesnt change the fact that mats are scarce

unless you already had stuff stockpiled

[tender flicker]

Paid express

[azure isle]

does this matter as it says

[shy chasm]

no

[tender flicker]

Not really

[azure isle]

this game

[candid lake]

it just has you go into a different like "mini dungeon"

but i think u visit both anyways (?)

[vast oriole]

i think you want to do both for achievment at some point

or something like that

but it doesnt matter

[azure isle]

i picked left on this char i need to pick right on another for it or do i get to do it both in one char?

[vast oriole]

another char

[azure isle]

[candid lake]

because

it's character bound gold

and not roster bound

the bar itself is roster bound but the gold itself is char bound

it's weird

it

's not even an event xD

[vast oriole]

no

[tender flicker]

Is it? I just used 6k of gold bars from gate and have 0 character gold.

[candid lake]

is it not?

[vast oriole]

its roster bound for us

[split kayak]

Isnt chaos gate gold roster

[vast oriole]

it was character bound in kr

[candid lake]

oh

shit

that's mb

oops

[vast oriole]

because roster bound doesnt exists there

i mean its still same reasonning anyway

[candid lake]

oh yeah that's fucked then

[vast oriole]

yes because nobody cares

[candid lake]

solo raids giving char bound gold ? gg

[vast oriole]

most people are done

[vast oriole]

yep, they have a big problem with rat chars

what how

are you even playing constantly

[sullen solstice]

cuz u can skip every set besides fire and the one for next raid lol

legit noone cares

[vast oriole]

and water set is useless

[split kayak]

How long does that take

[vast oriole]

well

i play constantly since 4 years

doing 18+ raids per week

[candid lake]

this is all i have left xD

[vast oriole]

yeah exactly

well

you can see mine

xd

dont forget we got 2 gold frogs aswell

since t4

[rose jewel]

🐳

[vast oriole]

i will never swipe for cards

im not that dumb

[sullen solstice]

i keep dropping omega useless relicsssss

[livid fossil]

Surely agier will be faster on my dk

For the challenge

[tender flicker]

Not until march

[vast oriole]

march update

[livid fossil]

March also no items for gr also

[paper walrus]

thats also in march

[sullen solstice]

i wish they just removed guardians as they are and made a rotation of existing ones on one small map

[livid fossil]

I thought they he would just spawn when we load in

[paper walrus]

these are all march changes

[livid fossil]

Ahhh

[vast oriole]

thats in march update

xdd

[sullen solstice]

wait fr?

[vast oriole]

but only for 1730+ i think? if someone can confirm

what?

[sullen solstice]

bruh

[vast oriole]

uh idk

depends the boss

and my group

and the char

[livid fossil]

And the time of the month and if the wind is blowing

[sullen solstice]

humidty is a big one as well

[vast oriole]

around 92/99/85 prob ?

more or less

[paper walrus]

no its just artist

[quasi harness]

do i do this?

[shadow pasture]

ye

[azure isle]

@gray verge is kharmine not enemy

[quasi harness]

what order should i upgrade karma?

[shadow pasture]

?

brand is 99

[quasi harness]

first rank 1 leap, then rank 6 enlightenment, then rank 6 leap and then rank 6 evolution?

[vast oriole]

no it doesnt

[shadow pasture]

for the ingame meter?

[shadow pasture]

yes

[vast oriole]

its ap brand z t

[quasi harness]

what should i buy from here?

[shadow pasture]

depends on your char

im assuming you didnt buy the premium express

[quasi harness]

no, i didnt spend money on it

[shadow pasture]

you can buy the accesory chest

or buy from market if its cheaper at the cost of pheons

[quasi harness]

are they?

[shadow pasture]

well before you buy random accesories

you need to know what youre looking for

?Accessory

[buoyant dock]

Recommended Accessory Lines for Support and DPS _

[quasi harness]

im wildsoul

[balmy plank]

The accessory set & the five level 7 gems are good

[quasi harness]

pba

[shadow pasture]

most peepos just refer to the bible meter

which is ap/brand/identity

[shadow pasture]

well for rings you want crit rate

everything else just refer to the sheet

[vast oriole]

ytes you can change the order while in the ''illegal'' dpsmeter is the order i said

and everyone references it

[quasi harness]

do i do this at 1680?

[shadow pasture]

yea

being on relic accs at 1680 sucks

[vast oriole]

nobody gives a fuck about ingame dpsmeter as a support

its dogshit

[shadow pasture]

better to work on it now rather than later

[quasi harness]

so why did he say this?

[vast oriole]

because

wait raid

ill answer after

[shadow pasture]

he wants you to be high ilvl for 1700 raids

[balmy plank]

Becasue they give bad advice

[shadow pasture]

but i suggest working on your char first rather than hone

no one is going to take a 1700 with 0 ancients

[balmy plank]

Being 1700 with relic accessories is trolling

[quasi harness]

kk

so first i get my accesories op

what about the other one?

[shadow pasture]

what other one

the bracelet>

[quasi harness]

bracelet

yeah

[shadow pasture]

you can also buy from the gold shop

its an okayish bracelet

[quasi harness]

isnt it better than buying from market?

and what should i aim for in bracelet?

[shadow pasture]

for your class crit/swift

and 3 damage lines

thats the ideal bracelet effects

[quasi harness]

accesories are more important than bracelet?

which one should i prioritise for the next days

[shadow pasture]

prio getting ancient accs

[paper walrus]

gold shop bracelet is dooky water

[shadow pasture]

they are both important

[paper walrus]

gold shop acc are fine

[quasi harness]

really?

[quasi harness]

better than buying them in market?

[sullen solstice]

you dont do either

u use paradise bracelet

[quasi harness]

?

[sullen solstice]

unless u have like 5mil gold u wanna waste to buy 50k unrolleds and roll them

[shadow pasture]

i dont suggest buying bracelets from market

your main source is basically just paradise

[quasi harness]

which is paradise bracelet?

[livid fossil]

If that’s what he wants to spend his gold on more power to him

[shadow pasture]

have you done paradise?

[sullen solstice]

oh fsfs, lmk ill put some up kek

[shadow pasture]

every week you get 3 keys

and hell can give you an option of a bracelet chest

[quasi harness]

hmmm different opinions, i see

[sullen solstice]

dead game

[shadow pasture]

i really dont suggest sitting on relic accs

at 1700

[sullen solstice]

can confirm, leaf is free raid entry

[shadow pasture]

and trying to enter 1700 raids

that is like way too ratty

[quasi harness]

hmmm

so what do i do then? xDD

everyone has a different opinion

[sullen solstice]

ur dps right

[quasi harness]

ye, wildsoul

[sullen solstice]

send ur ign

[livid fossil]

You DEFINITELY do NOT spend gold on accessories or bracelet hell can be free and roillling with silver

Save gold

[quasi harness]

Andreitapodemita

[quasi harness]

what was hell again?

[livid fossil]

Jumping simulator

[quasi harness]

ohhh k

[livid fossil]

3rd tab

[sullen solstice]

ok u got leaf u dont need anything other than that. get 1700, ignore anything else until then.

you get a set of trashy ancient accs when u hit 1700 for free

just use those

[quasi harness]

but i did good building my armor gear to ancient at least, right?

[sullen solstice]

yes

[quasi harness]

kk good

[sullen solstice]

u can get weap to ancient as well im pretty sure

why its free and looks better xd

they do

i got full set day 1

[paper walrus]

they dont

you have to do an aegir

[sullen solstice]

yeah

1 hm + boxes + pass

is enough for full set

including weap

[paper walrus]

no weapon

[quasi harness]

yeah i did, i had to to have full set

[sullen solstice]

yes weapon

???

[paper walrus]

oh you bought extra

[livid fossil]

No weapon does nothing

[paper walrus]

L

[quasi harness]

i dont buy this gems either?

[sullen solstice]

ofc, cheaper reds

[livid fossil]

https://tenor.com/view/faizal-khamisa-faizal-khamisa-take-the-l-the-l-gif-27532961

[paper walrus]

imagine buying reds

[sullen solstice]

ah30 expensive

[indigo breach]

This gem sucks

[sullen solstice]

why we ragebaiting in help channels?

[indigo breach]

mb

[livid fossil]

[vast oriole]

so
it doesnt matter much for pala and valk
but for the ap uptime, its extremely bad because it will take an average of the ap buffing and if someone is standing 1cm out of the circle, then it will be bad ap on them but then you will see your ap buffing isnt great and you dont know if its actually your skill issue orsomeone being dumbdumb and not staying in ap buff

[indigo breach]

I mean, the express event would be more cost-effective

[vast oriole]

also, i had some differences in uptime ingame and on the other bible

and i trust more those coders than smilegate

no it shouldnt be that way

because you literally dont know if you suck or not

[quasi harness]

so in conclusion, i just ignore everything and hone to 1700?

[vast oriole]

no

...

its your past record

it doesnt say someone else

[quasi harness]

every gear first from +14 to +18?

[sullen solstice]

?advhoning

[rose jewel]

for now and due to the current event, you are better honing your main to 1700 since you will be getting into groups easier, not free and instantly, but easier

[buoyant dock]

Optimal Advanced Honing Order
Standard: +12 -> 1-10 -> +14 -> 11-20 -> +18 -> 21-40 -> Continue to normal hone.
Express: +14 -> 1-10 -> +16 -> 11-20 -> +18 -> 21-40 -> Continue to normal hone.
Calculated with no additional materials (Books & Solars) and full on grace for advanced honing (Scrolls & Solars used on full grace only). Personal costs may vary when using an abundance of these items should you have them. You can estimate your costs using Maxrolls Honing Calculator https://maxroll.gg/lost-ark/upgrade-calculator

[livid fossil]

I know I suck I don’t need no meter telling me that

[rose jewel]

however you shouldnt ignore all the powerups that are easy to get and relatively cheap

[quasi harness]

do i ignore this too?

[rose jewel]

no, that you should do not ignore

[indigo breach]

Don't ignore this

[quasi harness]

lmao

[indigo breach]

This is an important progress

[quasi harness]

different opinion again xDD

[sullen solstice]

get 1700 first

[rose jewel]

your karma will be super time gated anyway

[livid fossil]

Probably should do karma with free taps from hell and normal if you like rush things

[rose jewel]

you cant just finish it in one go

[sullen solstice]

u get 3x 6/21 week2

[indigo breach]

That's true

[rose jewel]

you also get quite a decent amount of free karma tries

[indigo breach]

Just do it on the way to 1700

[rose jewel]

by super time gated i meant you aint finishing all r6 in week one

[indigo breach]

Like a sidewalk

[vast oriole]

you get a shitton of karma bottles in the express tho

[rose jewel]

its a forced time gate

and you get a lot of free taps as well

and he may get some more from hell next week

[sullen solstice]

yes, you get 3x 6/21 with the 2nd brel hm clear + boxes in week 2

[rose jewel]

is he 1690

did he already do brel

[vast oriole]

prob not

[sullen solstice]

80

[rose jewel]

so no hm

[sullen solstice]

thats why we been saying just get 1700

[rose jewel]

yet

[sullen solstice]

?

[quasi harness]

im 1680

[indigo breach]

Ah that's a different story then

[rose jewel]

yeah let me just go to my gold tree and ask it to shit out 200k gold

[vast oriole]

theres a bit too much advices given

i think he will be confused at some point

if hes not yet

[rose jewel]

he already is

[livid fossil]

Gold tree please shit out 200k gold thx bye

[quasi harness]

lmao i am hahahahahah

[rose jewel]

just a bunch of vets with dif points of view

[indigo breach]

Ye

[rose jewel]

im saying he aint getting to brel hard now or super soon

so karma will take more, and he may get all his taps with the free ones

the other assumed he already was hm brel ready

so points vary a lot

ill just go do my dailies

[paper walrus]

ingame counts uptime as based on time, when bible counts uptime as based on damage, you can get punished by ingame when you dont buff even though your dps isnt hitting the boss

[sullen solstice]

i though bible got killed after it became paid?

[shadow pasture]

?

[split kayak]

[paper walrus]

thats a different bible

[rose jewel]

yesn't

[shadow pasture]

theres a premium bible out there?

[rose jewel]

imagine

p2w literally

[indigo breach]

Wait what

[paper walrus]

yeah but since no one is paying for it we just used a free one

its the same

[indigo breach]

lmao

[quasi harness]

so what is the conclusion?

no karma or yes karma?

[rose jewel]

yes karma on the side with the free try stones

[sullen solstice]

the one evveryone has used previously

[indigo breach]

Yes karma, but no need to rush

You will get them all eventually

[rose jewel]

you are in a zone where you have to start doing a lot of shit and that will use a lot of gold

and then 1700 yet another, and that will actually hurt your soul permanently

[split kayak]

[quasi harness]

what shit do i prioritise?

[sullen solstice]

im still scared to start grid ngl

[rose jewel]

hone if you have mats

[indigo breach]

ilvl I suppose

Honing

[rose jewel]

if you somehow got spare gold but no X mat then do karma

up to 1700

then full stop

[quasi harness]

how much gold is it to hone from 1680 to 1700?

[rose jewel]

a lot

just hone

[quasi harness]

more than 400k?

[rose jewel]

not that much

just hone

[sullen solstice]

yes

[indigo breach]

Depends

[quasi harness]

damnn

[indigo breach]

Mainly depends on ur luck

[rose jewel]

at 1680 you get a significant amount of gold from your 3 earners

if you ever play alts thats an extra small help

[quasi harness]

what 3 earners?

[vast oriole]

yes and no, that impacts dps more than supps since we have efficiency line, need to not watch the rate lines

[rose jewel]

if you dont it will just take a bit more time

[vast oriole]

no its not

its literally based on time thats all

[quasi harness]

what should i prioritise here?

[paper walrus]

whatever is lower, but only use free taps

[sullen solstice]

could some mysterious person not specifically mentioned by name that talked about the holy book previously send me a link in private for the most used freeware variant for educational purposes

[indigo breach]

Weapon

But do never use gold

Then the lowest one for the clothings

Since all clothing pieces provides exact same buff here

[quasi harness]

should i destroy all this stuff?

[sullen solstice]

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

do I start grid or whats the move?

[indigo breach]

Hmmm

[indigo breach]

For the ability stones, u can keep them, if they have both engravings u need

[shadow pasture]

try your luck with some astrogems

[indigo breach]

For the first row of relic gear, you can scrap them

[shadow pasture]

big gains if you can get lucky

[quasi harness]

what about this? worth to buy?

instead with gold?

or still no?

[sullen solstice]

i have like 11 selectors

[indigo breach]

I guess no

[quasi harness]

@young tendon ?

[indigo breach]

Those are the pre-refined accessories

[sullen solstice]

no, they are not cut

[indigo breach]

Which means that you need to use gold to refine them

[sullen solstice]

but guaranteed bluequal

[rose jewel]

tldr no

[indigo breach]

Which is a pure gambling shit

[quasi harness]

so what do i buy with those coins?

[indigo breach]

honing materials

[sullen solstice]

buy weekly limited stuff

[indigo breach]

Shards, blue and red stone pouches, leapstones

Those are all weekly-refreshed stuff

[quasi harness]

no scrolls?

[sullen solstice]

no

weekly first

scrolls are not weekly

[indigo breach]

Buy them, if you have extra coins

after buying up all weekly stuffs

Btw, which class are you?

[sullen solstice]

ws

[quasi harness]

yep

[sullen solstice]

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

[indigo breach]

ooh

[quasi harness]

niceeeeeee

lets go

with a free gem 😄

[quasi harness]

why is it red my combat power xd

[indigo breach]

Nice!

[sullen solstice]

dps class

[indigo breach]

Green for milk

[sullen solstice]

dps = red supp = green

[indigo breach]

Red for dps

[warped ibex]

To get this secret map is it the song of resonance thing that I'm doing on this island or something else?

[indigo breach]

Ignore this if you have done Arkasia Tour

[warped ibex]

Ah okay

[rose jewel]

you can check which maps you have obtained on the collectibles menu as well

so you dont go there till the end of time thinking drop rate is ass

(Offer not available for yearning island)

[indigo breach]

Ah I hate yearning island

[quasi harness]

how do i use the lava things?

[warped ibex]

Ooh okay, I'm just trying to figure out what I can do for 2 more sea bounties

[quasi harness]

i can choose as many as i want for each

[indigo breach]

No

[tender flicker]

Yes, but best used for advanced honing. Don't use for normal honing.

Use when orbs are filled on advanced honing.

[quasi harness]

k

[indigo breach]

Use them for advanced honing

Which is much more cost-effective

[quasi harness]

the books in the right yes, right?

i use them always

or no?

[indigo breach]

Ye

You can buy them weekly in the Growth Support (solo shop)

[quasi harness]

worth?

[indigo breach]

Worth

Those are basically free

[quasi harness]

i can only use 15-18, right?

[indigo breach]

Yes

don't buy 11-14

And if u have already done advanced honing lv 20, don't buy those scrolls

[quasi harness]

and this stones?

where to get them ez

Paradise hell may drop some

[median marlin]

[indigo breach]

My suggestion is not now

It's too expensive now

128 gold each, used to be 100ish

[indigo breach]

You can do lifeskilling at North Kurzan or Rimeria, and craft them at your stronghold

[quasi harness]

how much is each if i craft them?

[rose jewel]

i bet he has not a single discount% setup

[median marlin]

ngl the bard thing on nexus there is confusing af

[quasi harness]

and the red crystals on the left?

[indigo breach]

40 with no crafting buff.

[quasi harness]

where to get them

[quasi harness]

damn thats cheap, is it hard to craft them?

[indigo breach]

Not hard, but you need to do lifeskilling stuff

Like foraging, mining, hunting

[livid fossil]

Why does she not break wall with sidereal am i clocking to late

[indigo breach]

And must be at North Kurzan or Rimeria

[quasi harness]

and the red stones on the left?

[indigo breach]

If I remembered correctly, express event shall give you a full set of Legendary lifeskilling tool

[livid fossil]

Isn’t Ctrl z to break the wall

[shadow pasture]

for what raid

[livid fossil]

Azena

[indigo breach]

Hard to acquire for now, since they nerfed it

[livid fossil]

Agier

[quasi harness]

lol, everything is hard to acquire apparently xD

should i just buy them?

[shadow pasture]

you use avele

[azure isle]

to confirm, to juice my alts in time i exclusively use character bound gold on them to not lose out on my main right?

[shadow pasture]

if youre seeing the wall in the space room

[indigo breach]

I'm not sure

[shadow pasture]

100k

[indigo breach]

The price of honing mats got sky-rocketed after DK's release

[shadow pasture]

then dont bid on it

[indigo breach]

I used to see 2M

[tender flicker]

I haven't seen an ancient or usable relic on my main, my desperate ass would go higher than 100k

[shadow pasture]

2m is like asmonbald level bidding

[indigo breach]

The red stone drops from all T4 raids, and also in the T4 Chaos Dungeon

[compact cliff]

Hey i need a little help! I came back recently and i have a slayer lvl 19 92.50 (created a long time ago) and a souleater that i created 1/2 years ago lvl 63 1585.83 rating that i used a north kuzan power pass iirc. I have the south rimeria power pass now,what should i do? Use it on existing characters? Or create a new one and use it on it? What would be the best and pros and cons of it? (i mostly play for completionism and achievements) Thanks!

[shadow pasture]

use it on whoever you want to main

[indigo breach]

Completely depends on you, I suppose

Use it on your favorite character

[shadow pasture]

but if you only care about completion/achievements instead of actual raiding then do whatever

[vast oriole]

sure

[tender flicker]

The slayer is pretty close to a new character. If you wanted, the SE can progress through paradise, etc. If you were playing for efficiency, you can make a new character and pass. That said, if there are any new classes that look fun to play, I'd recommend looking into them and considering passing them.

[indigo breach]

Wow that's cheap

[compact cliff]

Yeah thats what i was thinking, maybe as i dont have a lot of alts yet i should just create one i find fun and power pass it (i did find souleater fun but i only touched 2 classes so far this game)

[candid lake]

that's like 210k ish + like whatever the tax is

[compact cliff]

Thanks!

[indigo breach]

Souleater's outfit is somewhat cute

Ye, 210k

I never saw a bid of that below 400k...

[plain sorrel]

Her bewbs looks nice

[sullen solstice]

dang brokie lobbie

[indigo breach]

[warped ibex]

Hey do you know if I can do oblivion isle even if I've done arkesia tour?

[candid lake]

ye

u can still go to the island and stuff

[warped ibex]

And I can get the secret map from it?

[candid lake]

yeah

[warped ibex]

Ooh okay thanks

[onyx scarab]

where can I find the advanced honing unlock quest again? I have the prerequisites, i just cant find the quest

[rose wren]

guide tab in quest journal

[rose jewel]

J, guide

[onyx scarab]

yeah, but pressing the locate button doesnt do anything

[rose wren]

u arent in guide tab

[rose jewel]

GUIDE

not search

[onyx scarab]

oh damn

sry

[rose jewel]

c:

[onyx scarab]

I am too stupid to read too

xd

[rose jewel]

you are a legit lost ark player

one of us, one of us

[azure isle]

[rose jewel]

depends on some factors

main ilv, alt ilv, materials in the bag

amount of gold

[azure isle]

my main is 1701.66 alts gonne be at 1640 when i finish story on them and got a 1700 valk
id say dry on resources and gold p much, i have 96k unbound gold, 113k total so yea

[rose jewel]

if the alts are 1620 already then i guess

gold from paradise may take a while to get tho

honing to 1660 to do aegir isnt the worse thing in the world, assuming they have the rest of the mats

but i would do it with rosterbound gold

worse case

[azure isle]

should i spend those chests on alts?

[rose jewel]

hmm

no

to push 1710 when youre ready

mostly the abidos boxes

ah 21 onwards takes a lot of shards

well a lot of everything

[azure isle]

so play alts with long term paradise game

[rose jewel]

yeah that would be best

[astral root]

we are all paradise enjoyers on this blessed day

[rose jewel]

and when another set of express + whatever comes you can get another alt high

[azure isle]

[rose jewel]

even better if its an already created and well stablished alt due to shards

the most annoying mat to get a lot of

[livid fossil]

Gk has the same build setup that Valkyrie has for chaos dungeon lol one skill Andy

[azure isle]

ye shards bottleneck

[rose jewel]

more classes have that

i grab a nuke for the bosses

not really needed but it goes by faster by a bit

[vast oriole]

like i said

[primal herald]

is the challenge premium worth its value in mats

[vast oriole]

it doesnt impact pala and valk

[primal herald]

looks like some nice mats but 30euro sounds excessive lol

[rose jewel]

express? yes by a lot

[primal herald]

wasnt it like 20$ equivalent on kr

[vast oriole]

aroudn that yea

[vast oriole]

its 2 lvl 8, full midmid + high flat line accessories

and other shits

just that makes it worth 30$

[rose jewel]

gems alone cover the cost

[primal herald]

i c

[rose jewel]

or almost

[primal herald]

what do i do with the extra 200 royal crystals xD

[rose jewel]

cover that part of the screen so you dont see them

[primal herald]

😭

[indigo breach]

Yes

The reward from oblivion isle is not included in Arkasia tour

[warped ibex]

Ah okay, I didn't get the secret map anyway rip

[indigo breach]

Same applies to all daily Adventure Islands

[primal herald]

when is a good time to use this guaranteed upgrade stone

my weapon rn on guardianknight is 94 qual

should i wait or just use it

[rose jewel]

whenever you feel lucky or at like 96-97

[primal herald]

ic

[rose jewel]

maybe you hit 100 now

maybe you hit 95

no corrent or wrong answer here

[livid fossil]

Do I go to 1680 so I can get max points for waymark

[rose jewel]

its already very high

[primal herald]

yippee

[rose jewel]

see

also fuck you

also grats

[primal herald]

lol ty

[rose jewel]

but more fuck you than grats

[primal herald]

u were right

understandable

[indigo breach]

Yeeees

[livid fossil]

Do the stupid waypoint quest need to check to done

[vast oriole]

no

[rose jewel]

yesn't

missions are autocompleted

you need to press the "accept rewards" button to accept the rewards

if that somehow wasnt clear

[livid fossil]

How am going to get 200 and I 130 did guardian did chaos dis paradise

Challenge is 200 need I am 130

[tepid geode]

what is the most active eu server?

[balmy plank]

Ratik

[tepid geode]

thanks

[rose jewel]

just fyi most stuff is region wide, not server

[trail hawk]

why cant i change skill on those gems?

[mellow mauve]

youi do it from the gem page

[rose jewel]

P menu, not npc

[vast oriole]

Ok gl

[trail hawk]

oooh... thx

[sullen solstice]

make all event gems pre 2026 tradeable

or fuseable and roster bound

do I get my valk weap to 100 qual guaranteed or do i gamba it on main hmm

3rd

well my main is bard

but all 3 are 1700

valk gonna be supp as well at some point but she hit 99 weap with free taps

and I still have these bros

hell no

thats a guaranteed tap

dont talk to me zzz

thats urs

how are u 1400cp tho 😭

[azure isle]

his 1680 deathblade has more cp than that

[sullen solstice]

my omega rat artist was 1200 with t3 accs 7/3 stone and no relic books

1.2k lowkey just full 7s xd

[sullen solstice]

yeah fuck u

[balmy plank]

If we're just chatting can we move it to #general-chat or #lost-ark-discussions

[median marlin]

ah Echidna is kicking my ass, not sure what I can do here

[tender flicker]

Go do some paradise to fill out waymark missions, get lvl 70, take a bit to read up on your class build/guide

assuming you mean challenge echidna

[median marlin]

yep, doesnt seem like Im allowed to up my gear for this either

[tender flicker]

What class?

[median marlin]

bard

[balmy plank]

Youre using a dps build for her, right?

[median marlin]

yep

[west onyx]

Its a learning curve if ur new to the fight/game

Cant really face tank everything so youd need to know when to dps/dodge/etc

[rose jewel]

sadly they "overtuned" her hp due to increasing the ilv compared to the original

so you will need to know mechs really good

you will get out as a better player once you beat her tho

[mellow mauve]

why would you use it on weapon when you gain combat power from hp as a support

[sullen solstice]

funny numbers

• dps bard

[vast oriole]

Wasnt it changed

With today maint

[minor grail]

does logging alone give less materials than with duo if consumed the same energy?

[old shoal]

hey how can i get cloth to open Yoz skins

[vast oriole]

No its just slower

[median marlin]

yeah I get ragdolled a lot and cant break the mirrors in the 2nd(?) phase. Got her under 200x that time at least >.>

[vast oriole]

Dismantle market skins

Faceweara do not work

[vast oriole]

Do you have your build all setup?

[median marlin]

learning some of the mechanics

[vast oriole]

From nexus guide

[median marlin]

is there a way to link it?

[old shoal]

its like 50000 gold is it worth buying and gambling ?

[median marlin]

oh yeah

[tight drift]

[vast oriole]

Uh you can say your name

[vast oriole]

As you want, depends your luck

[old shoal]

ok thanks how much i get from dismantle

[vast oriole]

7

Theres skins that are less expensive btw

14 for chestpiece+pants

[rose jewel]

i didnt even read the patchnotes

did they even release any kind of emergency patch notes

[dim pulsar]

yeah on X

[rose jewel]

of course it was on twixxer

[vast oriole]

#official-updates message

[bold geyser]

Specifically, you need to counter the right mirror

With one of your counter skills

[old shoal]

like this one it will gives me 14 ?

[rose jewel]

i was checking another one fml

[balmy plank]

If you're buying skins to dismantle for cloth, buy the cheap ones

[old shoal]

its cheaps one

[balmy plank]

40k ain't cheap

You can get headwear from 5-10k at times

[rose jewel]

what if hes a whale

[median marlin]

Ah I'll try that particularly next time. Mostly just tanked the damage after a certain point with heals lol

[balmy plank]

Then pay real money for cloth in the cash shop

Hell altars have a chance to. It doesn't change the ilvl bracket of the key

[rose jewel]

what if hes a dumb whale and converts to gold then buy the skins off market

[median marlin]

I'm at the point where I'm getting one-shot by flowers lol

[rose jewel]

hashtag no offense

[median marlin]

And zero clue what the ground effects are doing

[rose jewel]

flowers?

youre getting hit way too much

[balmy plank]

You can't do that

[rose jewel]

too many flower fields and she'll create a beeg one

so you either dont put them close to each other (converted tiles) or just dodge more

its pure practice

[old shoal]

this is the cheap ones

[rose jewel]

so you will fail a lot, but you will also learn a lot

skin market is a bit fucked these days, inflation hit

[median marlin]

It's hard to see what's actually going on, thought she just threw them down and had to not touch em

[balmy plank]

Dont forget youre spending thousands of gold worth of pheons too. If you want to dump large amount of gold into a fire buy skins and dismantle for cloth only to open purple skins from jars. But youre better of being patient and sniping cheap skins

[old shoal]

ok thanks ❤️

[rose jewel]

i recommend to just take a run or two of full 100% dodging to learn her attack patterns

get semi comfortable with them then attempt a real run after

echi is very chaotic at first, after you learn her its smooth sailing

[median marlin]

Some of the stuff was pretty obvious, but took me a few tries to figure out the petrify thing.

[rose jewel]

red/blue eyes?

ill be honest i dont even remember which petri

[astral root]

Big echinda

[median marlin]

She teleports away, pops a mirror down that shines at you which will petrify you. Then you gotta move between her and the mirror before it happens

[astral root]

Also if you record a vid ppl here can review

[median marlin]

I'll try again after dinner.

[livid fossil]

If I drop some pics of my tools can you tell me if the free ones are better than what I have?

[mellow mauve]

go for it

[mellow mauve]

axe on the right is better but use the axe on the left when kicking, your relic shovel is better, fishing is w/e both are kinda eh, hunting tool on the right is better but still eh, I would use the gathering glove on the right but both are kinda eh, pickaxe on the right is better but you can the one on the left for full swing

[old shoal]

hey i saw lvl 10 event gem the blue one how much for it

[dim pulsar]

theres no lvl10 gems in event

u might saw some1 with Briliant GEM but its not EVENT but only TRADABLE gem that was swapped to be CHAR bound cuz some1 rolled cd but needed dmg

[old shoal]

oh okay

[dim pulsar]

u can get 2x lvl8 gems in PAID version of express

[livid fossil]

lol character bound and no lvl 10 lol

[dim pulsar]

?advhoning

[buoyant dock]

Optimal Advanced Honing Order
Standard: +12 -> 1-10 -> +14 -> 11-20 -> +18 -> 21-40 -> Continue to normal hone.
Express: +14 -> 1-10 -> +16 -> 11-20 -> +18 -> 21-40 -> Continue to normal hone.
Calculated with no additional materials (Books & Solars) and full on grace for advanced honing (Scrolls & Solars used on full grace only). Personal costs may vary when using an abundance of these items should you have them. You can estimate your costs using Maxrolls Honing Calculator https://maxroll.gg/lost-ark/upgrade-calculator

[molten grove]

did u watch guide vid

[livid fossil]

They didn’t give anything for advanced honing in challenge it all books

Do I stop normal honing and start grabbing lvl 1 scrolls from solo

[vast oriole]

decent

would be good if they would put gem on z

[shadow pasture]

better than deathblow rn

[median marlin]

I watched something of someone doing the content (old), but all I really got from it was that they did way more damage than me.

[vast oriole]

its the classic

[molten grove]

dps artist is good, there was one in Rattlympics pulling like 340m dps on HM kaz at 2k CP

[dim pulsar]

2k "rat" wasnt rly rat cuz they had their bis cores

ur normal 2k =/= 2k in ratlympic

[vast oriole]

^

dps artist really need those cores to even function

also, all other classes were pulling more so

[molten grove]

doesnt matter coz compared to other classes that isnt summoner, arcana etc... it still did fine

there were other classes hitting around that

[livid fossil]

What is the problem in encinada gate 1 or 2

[vast oriole]

a lot of other classes needs more investment to do dmg

[shadow pasture]

wdym

[vast oriole]

dps artist doesnt

[livid fossil]

Dude struggling

[shadow pasture]

what are you struggling on

[molten grove]

bk summoner arcana, those 3 most OP

[livid fossil]

If I need to just go advanced honing

Since they gave no scrolls

Challenge express

[dim pulsar]

buy from solo shop and just tap u have 2x buffs

[livid fossil]

K

[dim pulsar]

its enough to just go with it

[molten grove]

new player experience so good now

can literally just solo raid till ur 1700 then get into any pt easily from the 1000 grps asking for mokoko i.e hm mord, hm brel

[azure isle]

and do nothing to get rewards

[molten grove]

then u can basically repeat it till u get enough gold to buy ur +cp items

[azure isle]

mokoko experience is great

[rose jewel]

then get gatekept when event is over

[mellow mauve]

me when the "rat" support has h/h and full cores

peak

[azure isle]

is not-so-silent assassin the best pick overall

[split kayak]

any guide on how and which astro to cut

im at lost

[shadow pasture]

https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1MH2Xc2672Jtr_MVFhidJRW4aslCUG_rZ8rRMpzbqog8/edit?slide=id.g3a69d4102de_0_276#slide=id.g3a69d4102de_0_276

[split kayak]

yeah but
i see people recommending green first/willpower first or smth

[dim pulsar]

thats the whale doings

[shadow pasture]

well tldr you want it to land on willpower efficency and order points

when cutting gems

sides nodes is an after thought

[dim pulsar]

u can also cut green 8will power gemmies if u hit FIRST NODE +2/3 thers hope (WILLPOWER OR ORDER POINTS) if ur like "I NEED MY GEMS DONE NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW"

[mellow mauve]

you prior getting high willpower and order to unlock your 17 nodes

once you have full 17p on your cores then you move on to caring about side nodes will reaching 20p

[split kayak]

what abt people saying ancient cores are easier to get 17p

is lower core grade the harder to fill (?)

[vast oriole]

because they have more willpower available

[vast oriole]

yes

leg 12
relic 15
ancient 17

[mellow mauve]

more willpower slots, the shittiery gems you can slot in to get 17p

[split kayak]

so it's better to cut willpower 9 first?

[vast oriole]

no you want the lowest willpower possible with the highest points possible

[dim pulsar]

8 is best to start

[vast oriole]

thats the goal

[mellow mauve]

nah, you cut 8 cost gems. Since getting level 4 willpower will put it at 4 willposter cost and getting 5 will put it at 3

[dim pulsar]

9 if u dont have 8s

dont cut 10s tho

[mellow mauve]

making it insanely easier ot get 17p+

with 9 cost, you need to at minimum hit a 4 just to make the gem take 5 willpower to slot

while 8 cost you can just hit 3

[split kayak]

what to do with 7 cost

[mellow mauve]

there's no 7 cost

you start will levle 1 willpower

8 - 1 = 7

9 - 1 = 8

10 - 1 = 9

[split kayak]

oh so i just start with 8-1?

[dim pulsar]

best would be starting with these gemmies

[split kayak]

i only have a lot of greens

is it bad or should i fuse or smth

[dim pulsar]

well greens are GREAT to cut (if u want to burn ur gold)

[split kayak]

oh

[dim pulsar]

they only have 5 tries to cut and if ur first cut isnt +2/3 to willpower or order ur basicly BURNING ur gold

thats like cutting epic elixirs in hope of 40set after getting TRASH 3 options at start

[marsh grove]

ive made tons of great greens by waiting to see if theres a good cut 3 or so cuts in

ill even 20 blue crystal reroll them sometimes

[dim pulsar]

sure but thats just RNG and u hoped for GREAT option to hit

[dim pulsar]

damn a WHALE

[marsh grove]

lol?

3 cuts is like 3k gold and 20 bc is like 3-4k

if you only need +1/+2 of red or yellow then it's definitely worth considering

especially if the main funnel is amount of astros more than gold

[dim pulsar]

sure, thats 1 gem, then u cut 10 more and it stacks

since u can easly burn ur gold that way

[marsh grove]

idk, just my 2 cents. I cut astros for 15 cores to 17+ this week and if I gave up on my greens after just 1 cut I wouldn't have gotten nearly as far. about half of usable came from greens

either way its all RNG and u can get boned regardless of what you do

[split kayak]

damn it the gold sink

[marsh grove]

yeah I mean if you wanna be cheap with it then as boat said focus on purples and blues

at least once its done its done tho

kind of

TM

[faint cedar]

I just cut the first 1 or 2 taps on greens then delete if it doesn’t look like it’ll net at least a 5/5

[bold geyser]

...or higher

how can i farm pirate and high seas coins, i want to max my ship

[dim pulsar]

coop party trash ocean events

and daily 300 sea coins in SH

[livid fossil]

Ark pass might have some to

sadge they no longer give boxes with it in event shops

is nukman collectible easy and fast enough to get that 10k high seas coins?

[livid fossil]

It might be

itd cover 2 of the 3 steps rn

[azure isle]

damn

[dim pulsar]

and 12/12 of them is 0.2% dmg vs DEMONS

and 30k char bound gold

its WORTH doing it

[azure isle]

i need the sea coin for an unrelated purpose

[dim pulsar]

JUST for coins its 1 week

well, 6 days as u can do 2nd quest same day as 4th u finish

[pallid aspen]

Returning player, for reference videos/material regarding advice for how to progress from 1640+, are videos from 6 months - 1 year ago still valid? Or is there more up-to-date material I can sift through to understand the new power systems and what to prioritize first?

[bold geyser]

most everything taken out was on the tail end of T3, i imagine most of those things will be fine?

[dim pulsar]

its "mostly" fine

if u watch Deathboi Zero to Hero u should watch it ALL with T3 zone too

cuz he does all stuff u would proly do too

i just clickclickclick and judge them after

it shall be a surprise, even to myself

i hear ya

thats why i crack like 30 accs, cut them all blindly, dismantle anything lower than a M/M or H/L, and that lowers the legwork significantly 😄

yeah but thats a 1.5s check

1.5s too much

...i'm slow

let me set auto dismantle like for rocks

For the soft reset (T4.5), what exactly is new? I know blue and red stones are new - what about Shards? Candies? Orehas?
