if you have, what, 4 dps gold earners?

[crimson cobalt]

ye

[bold geyser]

you can divide the cost per 1% for the books by 4

still may not be the most attractive option

[crimson cobalt]

originally, the valk was dps but bc of my low cp i decided to play supp with her

[bold geyser]

but it will move up some spaces

this one isn't properly filled out, but to give you an idea of what i'm talking about

better value than pushing armor past 20, worse than buying one of your dudes a legendary skin 🙂

[granite maple]

whats the best one to select out of these

[dim pulsar]

u pick what u need when u hone

[granite maple]

all

[bold geyser]

honestly whatever you're short on

[vast oriole]

thsoe are only t3 btw, not t4

dont forget

[livid fossil]

Those are all t3

[granite maple]

yea im trying to use them all up on my last t3 char

[livid fossil]

Last

[granite maple]

the rest got to t4 with express events

[vast oriole]

btw when i said whatever the t3 shards XD

[livid fossil]

Rip t3 shards

[minor grail]

what is meant by deposit?

[bold geyser]

for...market?

[dark sable]

tower got deleted? cant find it

[minor grail]

in the gold

[vast oriole]

yes

[bold geyser]

on the market, you put 5% of the sell price down, if it sells they keep it as a posting fee, if it doesn't sell you get it back in the mail

[limpid obsidian]

How do guild minimum distribution settings work now exactly?
Does this do anything beyond removing free rewards for low activity?
Like, why would you ever set this above 100 if not to just incentivize being more active?

(asking again since last time only ppl who responded also wanted to know )

[dim pulsar]

250 to not give stones to RATS

why would we (as guild) pay bozo that only have 100 points and take WHOLE reward?

[limpid obsidian]

Pretty sure the current system just gives a fixed reward to everybody.

So only reason to increase requirement is to incentivize high contribution.

Contribution is the only thing that increases rewards, if you get enough for another level up.

Act. Points = Contribution

[dim pulsar]

MORE contribution = higher lvl of rewards, u dont contribute = we have to carry ur lazy ass to get more rewards without u, and U as LAZY BOZO will get free high rewards

[limpid obsidian]

I might lower it just for free shit on my crappy alts 🤷

[dim pulsar]

wait, is this ur OWN guild?

[limpid obsidian]

I'm leader.
There's also another 85 ppl in it tho. Open guild

[dim pulsar]

85* rosters, cuz its not based on single chars now

[limpid obsidian]

245 is free from daily checkin once you hit level 30 guild

[limpid obsidian]

Yeah, like I said: 85 ppl

PEOPLE

[dim pulsar]

do they ALLL play?

or just 50%

[limpid obsidian]

I only clear inactives after 3months or so

Tho the Online Status functionality is pretty hilariously stupid.
This is a new guildmate

They just haven't had their Friendslist Status set to Online in 9 months

Ye, like I said :P

[dim pulsar]

if some1 isnt "online" we kick

[limpid obsidian]

Zoomin

[jolly geyser]

Wich style of guardian knight its the best, and whats the difference

[dim pulsar]

best is what u like better

since its hitmaster vs frontal

[limpid obsidian]

You know, your whole attitude here is a little odd.
Like you're trying to be elitist about guilds?
Is yours even level 30 yet? Cuz based on a previous comment it doesn't sound like it.

[dim pulsar]

[indigo breach]

[limpid obsidian]

So why 250 min contrib? That's basically free

Daily check-in is 245

[dim pulsar]

i dont setup this

its relict of past below lvl30 guilds

[indigo breach]

My guild used to have a bunch of bot sorc

[limpid obsidian]

You said you gotta keep it high to avoid the RATS getting rewarded
#lost-ark-help message

[dim pulsar]

and u HAVE to be online to get that 250 contri

bruh i said it "we as GUILD"
we dont keep afking rats in our guild

[limpid obsidian]

You do you, just know that you're a bit weirdly hard-line about this.
No point kicking people unless you're running out of space TBH.

[dim pulsar]

and btw, i didnt say "MY GUILD" as of am the leader

[dark sable]

in term of dgm tbh they are even
hellfire: spec based on dragon form (or not if u choose so with ark grid) less skilled than other one just learn rotation and spam
dreadful roar: crit swift push immune on "boost form" + 5sec push immune with x shield (1min cd 2 stacks) front hitter

imo dr is funnier, faster and smoother but harder (test for urself in trixion)
depends if u wanna main the class or if its just an alt

[limpid obsidian]

Go to this page and scroll to the bottom for overall DPS performance:
https://lostark.bible/stats/raids

But since you're asking this here chances are you're new and DPS at endgame is entirely irrelevant for you since it will change by the time you get to a point where it matters.
So just try both and play what you like more.

[dark sable]

u can cchoose "supoer charge mode or not with ark grid 333 or 111 check lostarknexus guide)

[dark sable]

3rd week the char got out i dont think its rlly relevant abt the dps potential

tried searching for kr stats but cant find it

[vast oriole]

destiny

[dim pulsar]

wealth is shit

[vast oriole]

wealth doesnt measn shit

[limpid obsidian]

West already has enough samples to make the data relevant IMO.
KR doesn't have any kind of data aggregation, nor any way to cancel out gear from the data like UWU does here.

And yes, Arcana is that fkin busted.

[foggy venture]

are these the two synergies of gunalncer?
if not i cant find the 2nd one

[limpid obsidian]

2nd one was moved to Blue (Combat Readiness) Enlightenment tree.
Applied by just hitting an enemy.

[dark sable]

always been butt what are ur settings to get dr 2nd place?

[foggy venture]

i forgot to say blue gunalncer

[foggy venture]

ok ill check it out

[limpid obsidian]

No settings, it's the uDPS by Combat Power graph.
SCROLL TO THE BOTTOM.

It's by far our best measure of balance right now since it cancels out support dmg buffs and gear.

[foggy venture]

here it is, thanks

[dark sable]

oh nice never scrolled that page since i found this website (6 months) i may be dumb af

[limpid obsidian]

Also, Arcana has never been THIS busted.
There's a massive gap betwen it and the 2nd strongest class.
Only time I've seen a gap like that before, with high log count, is a little while back when GT Destroyer was giga-broken with macro play.

[dark sable]

future nerf in kr or they just ignoring the problem? xd

[limpid obsidian]

Oh 100% getting nerfed

KR are just clueless/slow on realizing balance

[limpid obsidian]

Main thing to note about that graph is log count (number in parenthesis).
The less logs the more unreliable the data. Below 200 or so I'd call the data quite unreliable.

[dark sable]

ark grid rlly destroyed the breaker

seeing him 18th hurt me

[limpid obsidian]

I mean:

[dark sable]

asura

[limpid obsidian]

One of them are doing fiiiine :D

[dark sable]

i hate bk

basically i hate all spec build xd

only play crit swift

it doesn't click with me

[rose wren]

anyway just stop chasing dmg, its hella stupid

[dark sable]

theres a diff between chasing dmgs and tierlist AND get knowledge to not start a dead class that is Z tier 0dmgs and not accepted in raids

[rose wren]

none of that exist in this game

[dim pulsar]

dunno i dont see any UNPLAYABLE class in loa

[dark sable]

striker 👀

[rose wren]

if u're listening to other people who supposedly be expert, u have been lied to

[dim pulsar]

still playable

[dark sable]

still in the lowest of the game i want my classes to be at least mid tier

[rose wren]

no such thing

[shy chasm]

[dark sable]

(still speaking abt crit swift build xd)

[bold geyser]

play emp

i believe in you

[dark sable]

https://tenor.com/view/thousand-yard-stare-rinbachism-reo-at-war-reo-mikage-reo-gif-14933449661058285738

[foggy venture]

how much more damage does this armor/magic penetration lead to?

i couldnt find the formula with armor online

[dark sable]

tried on Wardancer alt it rlly is boring

[shy chasm]

Did you ask gl channel

[bold geyser]

arcanist

play arcanist

[dim pulsar]

u can play fpe arti

its in fine state

[dark sable]

no.

[bold geyser]

alright then

[dark sable]

witch are a no go for me

[bold geyser]

[dark sable]

next class ill do with express is GS

[dim pulsar]

[bold geyser]

one of those was a wealth

[dark sable]

its +chest and + wealth

[bold geyser]

take the fusions unless you have rat accs 😄

[limpid obsidian]

TL;DR: It's around half the Def Reduction in dmg. I.e: -12% = +6% Dmg

More details:

/(1−100/(100+111))```
Note: This formula is ~2% off at 84% Defense Penetration/Reduction and ~6% off at 90%, but below 80% it's within 1% of tested values. This is the best formula anybody has been able to come up with so far.
More details here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1QxnDTO9xpPs6O3oQ311Y0mtMjszxWO6ZdBXIfuwN_-0/

[bold geyser]

all are decent tbh

[dark sable]

its bound

xd

[bold geyser]

stands to reason that's the quickest way to do it

[foggy venture]

ty!

[dark sable]

oh wealth is a scam

[limpid obsidian]

It's like 100 Leapstones

[dark sable]

would have take destiny, kinda in need of free taps xd

[bold geyser]

destiny is kinda a scam too =X

[dark sable]

alreaddy did on 3 chars 1.7k ilvl will do on my 1650breaker tmrw

GK took all my golds

just need to wait for these

[azure isle]

whats crit hit damage

[dark sable]

wed is my vacation day

[livid fossil]

[azure isle]

thats just crit damage

have you tried using personal storage

[dark sable]

gimme ur adress

[azure isle]

i dont see it

[bold geyser]

im not actually sure sorry

[azure isle]

thats crit damage

not crit hit damage

WHATS THE DIFFERENCE

[bold geyser]

sec

[limpid obsidian]

It's Crit Damage that isn't additive with the normal CritDmg stat.
CritDmg is a stat in your profile you can find in Details. It's base 200%, often around ~250% cuz people run KBW.
Any Crit Dmg line is added to this total, meaning it's generally around a third of the CritDmg value in Dmg gain.
While Crit Hit Dmg is only dependent on your Crit Rate. So it's always +1.5% Dmg on your Crits.

My guy, you desperately need to set up your Auto-Dismantle.

[azure isle]

thats better

[limpid obsidian]

You need to roll your shit then

[bold geyser]

are you gonna cut them

https://tenor.com/view/well-waiting-were-waiting-gif-5848728

[limpid obsidian]

And toss the garbage, like the 2 powders, and the Legendary Engravings, and crappy tools.

Mid is good enough to keep rolling IMO

[split kayak]

the gambling begins

[limpid obsidian]

Ye, IMO roll that.
Only roll if you get a mediocre High line like that.

[split kayak]

[azure isle]

my main's gear is +18 and +20 ah except weapon is +30 ah, do i ah +30 my armor pieces one by one or attempt +40 ah weapon if its not giga expensive?
also i see many people honing weapon all the way without much honing on armor at all, whats up with that

[limpid obsidian]

Or use.
Slightly better than a single High

[limpid obsidian]

They want the damage over everything else.

[azure isle]

is that a good thing

send

nah ur not worth that

[split kayak]

we only get 2 free relic core right

[limpid obsidian]

Only matters for showing off your big D(amage)

I wouldn't recommend focusing only on Weapon.

[azure isle]

ok ill do armor

[limpid obsidian]

Upgrade evenly.

Maybe leave 1 armor lower so you can keep getting books and other discounts for it later.

[azure isle]

i hate that my valk is super juiced in materials but my gk is poor

[split kayak]

new class

wcyd

unless you hoard tradables it is inevitable

[lavish mortar]

Swipe harder

[crimson cobalt]

sry for the late reply, but i filled it in the best i could. i was between CD and Adren books (i have 9 adren alrdy) and like 1 CD so the price to getting either one to 20 is about the same and i chose adren bc it says that i get a bit more overall dmg. anyways, i tried to read the the calc and am still a bit lost i would say lmao

but between getting high mid accs and a book to 20, the gold should be the same. and also the dmg gain too (accs give 0,10% more i think) but roughly same.

so i do whichever i like?

[gentle briar]

help is breaker good dps i love my striker

[languid topaz]

can i use character bound gold for knowledge transfer ?

[shy chasm]

Should able to

[shy chasm]

Yex

[bold geyser]

i mean you can switch between the different books to see how it rates on the sheet relatively easily 😄

[limpid obsidian]

Don't think you can. Check total gold in that window.

@shy chasm ^

[shy chasm]

[bold geyser]

simplest way to use the sheet is start at the top, go line by line, and the first entry that you don't have is your next most efficient goal 🙂

[limpid obsidian]

Yeah, I know. It's weird.

Cut. Gotta roll to win

Also, single high +2% dmg line is already usable

If you need it on any char

[bold geyser]

in any case, looks like your best bet is karma -> astrogems -> start working up your gems to 8

[vast oriole]

think you cant because smilegate is dumb and cant think

[languid topaz]

oh yeah you actually cant

[rose wren]

no, roster or non

[plucky drum]

is emperor still best for arcanist?

[crimson cobalt]

ok, so all of them i do have. the ark grid is difficult to do immediately sinc ei dont have blue cores but i do have 2x 17P and 1x 10P on Order cores. for gems im basically set too since im playing the 3 gem build.

[limpid obsidian]

Big win

[bold geyser]

onward down the list then 🙂

[crimson cobalt]

lol, okay, i thought i had to do some matrix stuff to figure whats the best route xd

thank you.

[bold geyser]

normally probably, but this list does a good job of organizing it

looks like adrenaline falls somewhere at the tail end of astrogem cutting

if you divide it by 4

(also this is only damage/gold spent, to say nothing of gatekeeping and the like)

[plucky drum]

hi friends. any arcanist mains here?

is emperor still best or empress?

[rose wren]

play whichever u have fun, there's class ch

[crimson cobalt]

yea did that too. rn im between getting high/mids, adren or CD books. prob the books for roster boost and then the accs last

thanks again. i didnt know about the calc

[indigo breach]

Ark grid is too expensive

[indigo breach]

Wait wut

How???

[vast oriole]

highest ceilling class thats all

[rose wren]

noway, other emp require more brain imo

[indigo breach]

Probably because Armoche doesn't move too much

I got nearly half of skills missed in g1, when Echidna just flying everywhere

[vast oriole]

its kazeros

not armoche

[limpid obsidian]

Not just ceiling. It's giga-busted in general right now.

[vast oriole]

yeah i know

[limpid obsidian]

Always stupid when there's a solid 5% DPS gap between the top class and #2

[vast oriole]

wasnt emperor buffed recently too XD

[indigo breach]

Oof

[split kayak]

buff empress

[indigo breach]

Imma need to get a new pair of prescription glasses

[split kayak]

[vast oriole]

class is just giga broken

[indigo breach]

Highest apm＝Highest dmg

Fair

[swift pier]

half the apm is just spamming cards

[quick linden]

for next gear, only juice will be the same right ?

[bold geyser]

and shards

[plucky drum]

this is insane 0-0

[quick linden]

ty ty

[vast oriole]

you can exchange rest of mats 5:1 also

[quick linden]

so for max efficiency we convert this + echidna + aegir to juice

[vast oriole]

yes

[warped ibex]

https://lostark.bible/character/NA/Ayeuri
Looking for some advice is advanced honing my only point of progression now?

[lavish mortar]

Evo karma
Ah

[warped ibex]

What is ah?

[dim pulsar]

Advanced Honing

[lavish mortar]

Id just run 90% crit so I dont have to change for crit syn

[azure isle]

can someone help me decide what to do with my characters with the gold i have (143k unbound, some roster-character bounds on some characters)
https://lostark.bible/character/CE/Vyrakon/roster

I can try to ah +30 an armor piece on GK but I fear of running out of shards since she only has 922k shards, and only 191 fusion materials too so I'm not leaning towards that at all
I can juice up my Valkyrie in some ways, either AH +30 the weapon or possibly more than one armor piece, dump gold into karma for Leap as far as it goes (im pretty sure i have enough bottles to do rank 6 but gold might bottleneck), I can purchase 5 level 7 gems from gold shop, get the T4 Ancient Bracelet or 4 of accessories chest (cant afford 5) (support spec)

• shes sitting on 2.3m shards and way too many honing materials (me thinks, 1351 fusion, 3246 leaps, 70k red and 180k blue, has 464 special honing things too)
  I can raise more alts for more gold gain & have fun with different playstyles (I'm really curious about Arcana and Artist so far)

[lavish mortar]

Its prob a wash on dps diff anyways

[azure isle]

how exactly does paradise make gold for my main from my alts again

the books?

[lavish mortar]

It doesnt

Just lets you free hone the chars up for more raid gold

[tender flicker]

Books kinda, but paradise on alts is used to hone them up "for free" so they can earn more.

[lavish mortar]

But takes weeks to months

[azure isle]

oh i misremembered

so what should i do here im indecisive

[lavish mortar]

Send all your goldies to @vast oriole

She poor

[azure isle]

not helping

[azure isle]

say i chose juicing my valk so she gets less gatekept, how should i go for it from those options

[rose wren]

since release because its less than 3trades

[lavish mortar]

Leap karma prob

[rose jewel]

You have to do it all in the end, it's not something you will be done with in a couple weeks

[azure isle]

i am

[rose jewel]

Karma is prob the first prio, then everything else

[azure isle]

you talk nonsense

[rose jewel]

That's why we tell mokokers to not rush

[split kayak]

dont be a honing monke

treasure your leaf

[azure isle]

is rng > guaranteed in this game

[rose jewel]

Develop your char/roster a lil bit

It will take time, never compare yourself to some idiots that say rush alts to high ilv or "you do it in a week", coz they more than probably got several alt chars or even accounts

Yes alts are relatively easy to get to t4 now, but that's it, and the more you rush alts and do a lot more homework the more chances of burning out

[rose wren]

i guess only login rewards nows, back then seasonal events gave so many, otherwise exchange like blue crystal for gold/vice versa to buy pheons

[azure isle]

but why is an rng system upgrade prioritized over guaranteed upgrades like the gems and the chests

[sterile sonnet]

I just reached 1700 for the first time but dont see any quests added to journal. where am i supposed to go?

[rose jewel]

Work on one thing at a time, the leaf will do the heavy work until it's gone, you got months to develop a main and then next set of express event/s you think on juicing alts

[sterile sonnet]

no idea what that is

[rose jewel]

But if you got time and the will to play more, maybe do an alt or two to t4 for behe and echi

[sterile sonnet]

thats what i mean....i dont have any active quests

[rose jewel]

Act4? It's a quest on Kurzan, you can look it up on the search menu on J

To see if you got any pre reqs left to do

[tender flicker]

Either a purple quest in the center of rimeria, or you need to finish a quest in shae (rimeria) first

[rose jewel]

Ah i typed Kurzan out of habit

[azure isle]

yea i want to do more alts but the fact that my valkyrie despite being SUPPORT getting gatekept on hm raids is just irritating thats the only reason i want to invest in her to not have that happen as often

[lavish mortar]

I mena youre a mokoko support
No offense, id rather not risk that

[rose jewel]

I mean, hm raids + mokoko sup = all 3 dpses will do ass dmg, at least most of the time

[azure isle]

[rose jewel]

Carrying one DPS with a good sup is super easy

[azure isle]

if i can cycle my buffs and brand and mitigate damage what am i even doing wrong, just being a mokoko?

[rose jewel]

Carrying a sup when you probably are mana hungry or need a lot of care (shields or dr to keep the dmg compensating the bad uptime) is bad

[lavish mortar]

Being a new player
Which means no one trusts

[rose jewel]

It's night and day what an experienced sup and a new player playing sup do in raids

[lavish mortar]

I can't even trust 1740 supps to be good
Why would I trust a mogogo

[azure isle]

so ur saying i should solo all up to act 4 and somehow do act4 and progress my supports slowy like that until im no longer a potential waste of time?

[rose jewel]

No

[lavish mortar]

Just.. play dps valk

[rose jewel]

You can go to groups, just as a dps

It will be less detrimental to the whole group

[azure isle]

i want to play support

[rose jewel]

Not the pugs in game nor us know what you are capable of

If the group clearly states lf sup then take the chance

[lavish mortar]

Play supp and never join a group
Or play dps and do the raid

[rose jewel]

Outside of that, ehhh

[lavish mortar]

Its your choice

[azure isle]

that doesnt sound like a choice

[rose jewel]

Do you know what your uptimes are on X raid/s

Do you recognize the patterns you can and should DR for your goblins

I know it's kinda dumb coz I'm asking you to have 20y of experience being 18, but

[lavish mortar]

How do you do 425x on support
Mordor g3

[azure isle]

yes you are

[rose jewel]

Sup is just that important of a role

You can answer hunter's question

[lavish mortar]

If you dont know stuff like how to handle mechs then its ripperoni

[azure isle]

how does that mechanic differ on support you do the same thing

[lavish mortar]

Ok then how do you do it

Cuz imma be honest

[dusk zinc]

my wife

[azure isle]

get in the edge of the circle and go other edge when laser telegraph fills

[split kayak]

[lavish mortar]

Most dps treat that as a dos pattern and expect supp to play as such

[azure isle]

whats different

[lavish mortar]

0 shield care during running?

[azure isle]

havent seen anyone greed there

[lavish mortar]

No awakening?

[azure isle]

i dont do awakening cuz shield was enough

[dusk zinc]

I didnt know I got cheated on they had already divorced

[azure isle]

nothing

so i shouldnt play support until i am familiar enough with raid(s) mechanics and the class im playing to react accordingly is that it

[rose jewel]

Yeah no

[plucky drum]

?honing

[lavish mortar]

Basically yeah

Unless its new raid prog

[proper heart]

Hi guys, i have a doubt, in armoche, how did some people know where armoche is going to dash in 280 bar

[rose jewel]

You throw awakening so your dpses can actually greed dmg, if you only run around shielding only when you go in then that's a big nope

[rose jewel]

Arcana can see the boss coz they mark it, sometimes the boss shows a bit early due to particles and such, not always people will see it early

[azure isle]

i forgot about the going in part cuz im still getting used to it and solo mode mechanics linger in my mind

[rose jewel]

And that's why we're recommending to go DPS first

Playing support is very easy on paper

[azure isle]

i only do awakening if i know we'll get hurties

[rose jewel]

But again a good sup makes a real difference on dmg dealt

That's also wrong

[lavish mortar]

Fuck that off cd unless youre saving for a specific mech

[rose jewel]

Awakening is your identity filler for more buffs

[lavish mortar]

Awakening is identity not shields most of the time

[rose jewel]

Going to mor g3 again, you only ever save it for hyper awake on anvil

And on 425

[rose wren]

should read tooltip on awakening what it does, providing dmg/shield or not/etc then learn when to utilise

[rose jewel]

The rest of the time you spam that shit

[lavish mortar]

You should have near perma shields up anyways

[rose jewel]

Another example of "on paper"

[azure isle]

i see

[rose jewel]

There's a lot of things to minmax sup

Ofc you can go by with a decent uptime as long as no one dies and it's their fault they get hit

But your uptime is important, uptime on everything

[lavish mortar]

Got skirmish in mordor g3 on supp?

Better be buffing between swings

[rose jewel]

Yeppers

[drowsy girder]

even buying solo shop full i can only hone 9 times for the fusions it seems, how else can I get them just buy?

[lavish mortar]

Paradise (hell), sh crafting, market

[azure isle]

do i atleast have potential

[rose jewel]

Oof

[lavish mortar]

Which brand are you running

Do you have relic magic stream

[azure isle]

captain america

yes

[lavish mortar]

Whats your swift what gem on leap

[azure isle]

1720

lv7

[lavish mortar]

Your swift is low as fuck 💀

Prob cant break 95% with that low

[azure isle]

you should see my bracelet

[lavish mortar]

So show it

[rose jewel]

thats

[lavish mortar]

...

[rose jewel]

ass

[azure isle]

insane right

[lavish mortar]

Buy solo shop ones

[rose jewel]

why havent you bought the growth shop one

its like 99% better

[azure isle]

if i bought it and we have this conversation

thats waste of gold

[split kayak]

[lavish mortar]

Is your dps valk brace good

[split kayak]

and you wonder why ppl gatekeep you

[rose jewel]

my ass, go buy it

[lavish mortar]

If not, not waste of gold

[rose jewel]

its not even a question

[lavish mortar]

Since you get a supp and dps bracer

[azure isle]

idk i cut this one recently and gave more cp

[rose jewel]

thats usable

you will fish for a better one from hell chests

[azure isle]

gold shop bracelet is probably better

but meh

[rose jewel]

but as of right at this very moment, your sup acc is complete monkey cheeks

go buy the solo shop one

[azure isle]

no

[rose jewel]

did i stutter

[azure isle]

if i shouldnt play it

no

[lavish mortar]

Either way should be able to get 90/99/50/40

[rose jewel]

95+ on brand alone consistently is an improvement

atk buffs are kinda low for a valk

[lavish mortar]

Theyre missing a lot of cdr due to bracer is the issue 😕

[rose jewel]

i know the rota is a bit strict coz high cd on leap but it aint that bad

yeah ik

1800 swift is the goal

[lavish mortar]

But 90% should be doable

[rose jewel]

or close to

[azure isle]

stop

[velvet timber]

How do I farm runes and engraving books. Im 1612 and have not had a consistent source of farming for these

[split kayak]

[rose jewel]

we're just telling you the things you lack, besides 30k being a massive improvement for your sup build, you will get them fast later, i told you this is gonna take a while

you go bit by bit, and the bracelet is an extremely fast and good improvement as of right now

[azure isle]

you told me i shouldnt play support now you want me to improve my support spec

[rose jewel]

you were dead serious on going support

[azure isle]

yea

[rose jewel]

we're telling you how to improve on it

besides i told you something that you prob ignored

where is it

[azure isle]

i appreciate it but i already acknowledged the reality so i wont play support until i can

[lavish mortar]

Do supp in guards for uptime practice
Dps for raids

[azure isle]

yea i can do that

[velvet timber]

I have but I used it on a new character. I still want to accomplishment of getting my main to the endgame without powerpass

[drowsy girder]

Yeah been stuck 1686 for awhile now, so was hoping there was a better way to get infusions, seems like even with azena blessing and dailies and keys after a week of stuff I only have enough to hone one item twice with "hone gear 10 times" thing. The prog has been really slow, guess just get a little at time over the next few months.

[lavish mortar]

And prio hell bracers for both builds

[azure isle]

is the shop bracelet chest an improvement for both specs cuz it has options

[rose jewel]

i missed the message, im blind

[lavish mortar]

Should be small improvement for dps
It gives all 3 bracers

[tender flicker]

You get all bracelets

[azure isle]

ah

[rose jewel]

anyway the gold shop one will be more cp for sure

and for sup its like finally having something useful

your current one is lacking everything

[rose wren]

didnt u say u were good with commands... lmao

[azure isle]

it decreased my cp on dps

sup went up by 30

[drowsy girder]

I did

to get to 1685

yes

[lavish mortar]

Go try a guard on supp, should be noticeable better uptime

[drowsy girder]

probably, the fusion stuff has been brutal

[azure isle]

yea doing it rn, and is it gems > accessories (support) after leap ranks?

[lavish mortar]

Id need to see current accessories

[azure isle]

theyre from either waymark or the previous express idr, again for dps

[lavish mortar]

💀 def upgrade to single highs if you can

[azure isle]

is that better

[split kayak]

eksdidi

[lavish mortar]

Yea

[azure isle]

how

[lavish mortar]

Brands still kinda low tho

[drowsy girder]

logging in tysm

[rose jewel]

90 on buffs and youre better than like 80% of sups

95 on brand as well

[azure isle]

my leap and oath dont line up perfectly or i dont know at what milisecond to cast the next

[lavish mortar]

Leap off cd
Oath to fill the gap

[azure isle]

is it the same for t, brand and z

keep on cd?

[rose jewel]

at max stacks the buffs should have like 1s or 0.5 of time left when the other comes off cd

[lavish mortar]

Yes

Brand is a bit lower prio cuz it lasts ao long with circle

[azure isle]

when i first started support spec i almost never used t

[rose jewel]

im not the best valk but i can go and run something if you wanna see

[azure isle]

nah its fine

[rose jewel]

every time i wanna show something on stream or vid i get rejected

[lavish mortar]

99% of it is practice and asking for help/feedback

[split kayak]

patge

[rose jewel]

brb crying in the corner

[rose wren]

there's corner?

[azure isle]

also does that mean i should get the dps ones as well?

[rose jewel]

how many pheons do you have

[lavish mortar]

Would be a good idea
And yeah how many pheons

[tender flicker]

Are you raiding mostly as dps or sup?

[azure isle]

i never spent them

250

[rose jewel]

not a lot

[azure isle]

dps if theres the space

[lavish mortar]

Prob best to go high wp% low ap% earrings with the pheons and then idk what else

[rose jewel]

a mid mid on neck, then he can buy the solo shop rings

probs

[lavish mortar]

Probably

[rose jewel]

mid mid or high low

whatever is cheaper

[azure isle]

gibberish

[lavish mortar]

Did this make sense

[azure isle]

yes

[lavish mortar]

Great, start with those then

[azure isle]

what the helly is a mid mid high low tho

[lavish mortar]

The earrings I said to buy are a high low

[azure isle]

that is very not cheap

[lavish mortar]

It is not

But those earrings work for both builds

2 for 1 value it basically free!

[azure isle]

how limited are pheons

[lavish mortar]

Historically not very

Recently very

You slowly accumulate them usually

[azure isle]

it would be most logical to spend them on gk for the better since its my main i think, if i spend them

unless i can get more pheons

then i dont care

[lavish mortar]

Whats gk have rn?

[split kayak]

your gk is alrd mid-mid

[lavish mortar]

The express stuff? Or premium express?

[azure isle]

premium

[rose jewel]

she's good for a looooooong time

[lavish mortar]

Only pheons you can spend on gk is skins then

[azure isle]

wuh

[lavish mortar]

Unless you got 700k gold for 1 accessory

[azure isle]

really

what the

[lavish mortar]

Premium express gives VERY good gear.

[azure isle]

i assume that has more than 1 yellow line

[lavish mortar]

Nah, 1 yellow 1 purple

2x yellow is like 4mil?

[azure isle]

why is that 700k

WHAT

[split kayak]

ye

[azure isle]

diabolical

[split kayak]

it's better to up gem

and book

[azure isle]

i cant afford book

[lavish mortar]

Id do accessories for valk
Then level 8 gem x1 on valk

[azure isle]

not with everything else i need to do

level 8 what gem

[split kayak]

better get acce on valk, that way you get to play more act4 too

[azure isle]

jesus christ its 400k

[lavish mortar]

Bind it
Make it leap cd for supp, and final splendor for dps

[azure isle]

yea no that is out of my reach

[rose jewel]

for now

but that is the goal

[azure isle]

this and the one below it is the same lines do i buy those

[split kayak]

acce first then, gem later soon™

[rose jewel]

no

that atk low is the wrong one

[azure isle]

whats wrong

[rose jewel]

when we say mid or high or low we strictly talk about % bonuses

[split kayak]

ignore flats

% is the shit

[rose jewel]

if we say flat then its that one

otherwise its %, always

[azure isle]

okay that made everything worse

[split kayak]

[rose jewel]

did you expect to pay 5k for it

its like 40 to 50 nowadays

and thats hella cheap

[azure isle]

sir

ur 45k off

thats not hella cheap

[rose jewel]

it is

[split kayak]

[azure isle]

its 95k

[rose jewel]

compared to months back? yes

95? lmao

[azure isle]

then 120k

[rose jewel]

what are you searching

[azure isle]

both %

weapon high

[rose jewel]

lets see, im NA but prices should be close

[azure isle]

that is not hella cheap

[rose jewel]

hahaha eu sucks

wait on them to be lower then

[bold geyser]

for high low?

[azure isle]

i better off buying gold shop chest

[rose jewel]

go ahead then, buy the weapon %

will work for both

check pinned message to see which is which

[azure isle]

the weapon power one doesnt have atk power as you suggested

is it still better?

[lavish mortar]

Yes still an improvement, just less of one for dps

[azure isle]

well if its more than 0 ill take it

just the earrings?

[azure isle]

thanks for everything Hunter and Signum

ill get the solo shop stuff first to have proper gear until i can afford that horrible eu market for better

[dim pulsar]

its more than WORTH

even if it was low/low it would be worth

[buoyant smelt]

45 cube tickets or convert to hell keys? Id only really care about the gems from cube i dont need the silver or shards

[split kayak]

cube

[obsidian valve]

roster xp?

[buoyant smelt]

like 300

[lavish mortar]

Juice mats?

[obsidian valve]

i'd save for cube

if not max roster

but gamba free honing taps

xd

If you wanna gamba then gamba?

[obsidian valve]

meh lol, if that's what tickles your fancy

[opal merlin]

does anyone have a screenshot / stat info of the DPS and Support accessories(1680 ancient ones) from the premium Challenge express?

[buoyant smelt]

their mid mid highs

[bold geyser]

yes

relic

[dim pulsar]

relic/ancient(for lege keys)

but transmuting epic/lege is a bit ... meh

[split kayak]

ancient

[dim pulsar]

-2/+2 but if u transmute and get Frost/Fire keys u basicly lost ur lege (unless u get to 80+ without death)

[bold geyser]

transmuting a legendary key is kinda sus because you have a 1/3 chance you end up with a nether key and then a very small chance to use up all your jumps

i wont give u inv

it is prohibited to talk about that in this discord, go find them on your own

Ohh ok

[covert crag]

May I ask for some help with Wili-Wili ? (EU Ratik)

[rose jewel]

uhhh

you can maybe ask in the area chat and someone may go to your rescue

or you can leave it up to much later and one shot him

[dim pulsar]

uhhh just skip bosses while u lvlup

[rose jewel]

if someone from rattik is here maybe, but

they are not really needed, not that early

[covert crag]

I see , I just always work on Tome first

but I'll wait until later

ty o/

[dim pulsar]

lvlup>>>tome

[rose jewel]

its much easier once you got a strong character

[dim pulsar]

no point in struggling now when u can auto attack him later

[rose jewel]

instead of spending 5 mins on a boss wasting a million pots, you can just one tap it

but try asking in the area chat ingame

[bold geyser]

this is how we end up with so many soft mokokos

[rose jewel]

maybe someone is around buying a card or something

[dim pulsar]

any lvling area is deadge

[dim pulsar]

not at 8am in EU

[rose jewel]

🤷‍♂️

[covert crag]

low lvl areas dead, ngl

so I'll just leave it for later, ty guys

[dim pulsar]

deadge since most of us just use PowerPass

[covert crag]

true, true

[rose jewel]

its kind of a one player game until several dozens of hours

[covert crag]

I tried that too but I was clueless about anything lol

[rose jewel]

but its a nice experience, the story is good

starts a bit slow for some but ramps up really nice

its just world building at the start

[shut fog]

Hey all, newish player, 1680 ilvl and 1085 power and I was curious if I should even bother trying to find groups for normal/hard mode raids instead of slamming them on solo for now or if I should wait until I'm geared more or reach the raids where solo mode doesn't exist.

[rose jewel]

your cp is kind of on the extreme low end for 1680 which is where you get a jump on power

but if youre a leaf just abuse it

go to act 1, 2 and 3, act1 hm, rest nm, find lobbies looking for a leaf

get in, enjoy tradable gold

[shut fog]

My cp might be too low cuz even with leaf I get denied a lot of the time. Any primary sources to upgrading it? I'm at a wall with gems, engravings, ilvl, etc so I'm not really sure where to continue getting cp

[rose jewel]

wont know until we check your char

you know what uwuowo is

[shut fog]

I do not

[rose jewel]

if not just tell us your ign

[shut fog]

Skaaj

on Luterra I think

[bold geyser]

need to work on your AH

[shut fog]

Yeah I'm actively trying atm but my gold is low. Guide I read said to AH at +16 and then at +19 but I think that must've been tier 3 rules cuz I ended up finding out otherwise after I hit +16 on everything

[rose jewel]

karma, bracelet, the rest of the lv7 gems, quality on weapon, start doing advance honing instead of normal hone, all the way to 20 at least to get to 1700 (slowly, no rush), better accessories either from the solo shop or from the market IF you have 300+ pheons

[bold geyser]

those are outdated

btw my only way to get the stomes for AH is echidna??

od how else can i get them

[lucid axle]

thats it

for 1-20

[tender flicker]

Solo shop, hard mode echidna. If you're a mokoko, you'll sometimes find people running hm echidna for tokens.

And whatever the express gives you.

[supple shoal]

okayyy

il check out solo shop

cuz echidna only give like 30 with boxes i think

and thats just for wep

[lucid axle]

solo gives 10

i think

[supple shoal]

yeahh the solo shop gave me 10 alcahone eyes or we it is

still it will only be enought for wep and 1 armor ah

well

with doing echi normal

[marsh grove]

2 weeks of HM echi with buying boxes + solo shop + end of raid box is enough to finish most AH

this is how my roster is i wanna push main on my 1640s i probably shouldnt push them yet becouse of gold and just do echi thae and ivory tower on them for gold?

[paper walrus]

you can also farm paradise on them and fish for character bound gold

can use those to push

[supple shoal]

yeh

[tender flicker]

Behe>ivory for gold

[supple shoal]

oh isee

just didnt see ppl running behe last week

but was told they run it at the end of the week

[tender flicker]

Yeah, tends to be later since it isn't a gold earning raid for a bunch of people.

[supple shoal]

and do you think i can get in as new player on flat 1640s?

[marsh grove]

depends on the host

some hosts will take a full party of mokokos

others only want 1

[tender flicker]

On behe most parties outgear the raid really badly, so often they're just trying to fill the head count.

[supple shoal]

once i reach elysian 10 i should just insta run there all my elysian tickets i guess?

[split kayak]

esp when behe is a 16man raid

[supple shoal]

[tender flicker]

Yeah, no reason to hold elysian tickets atm since 10 is highest it goes this season

[glacial basin]

Is 3% / 6% a bad luck value? Do I still have a chance to increase it?

[marsh grove]

don't use those on that, brother

[supple shoal]

what do i use this for

[marsh grove]

save juice for Advanced Honing

[full hawk]

where can i use my sylmael bloodstones?

[outer mason]

Kazeros Raid Gear Crafting NPC

get ancient T4 gear, and transfer

[outer mason]

Alt+U
guild shop

[glacial basin]

u mean breath?

[marsh grove]

yeah

[glacial basin]

so, my question?

[marsh grove]

t4 honing chance can increase from juice or books

solo shop has free 15-18 books

idk what you mean by "bad luck value"

[bold geyser]

Think it maxes out at 6%? 9% with juice?

[outer mason]

"Do I still have a chance to increase it?"
There are 4 ways to increase a honing chance

• Express (if it applies)
• Repeated honing (up to 10 times increases the chance)
• Juice/Breath
• Honing tomes

[quasi harness]

what is this for?

is it better than the purple chest?

[outer mason]

you get both

[quasi harness]

what are those orbs for?

[jaunty igloo]

extra damage when using your awakening

[outer mason]

it's a permanent item slot for your character, it gives you bonuses in paradise and in other content

[jaunty igloo]

also gives u a buff

[quasi harness]

which one should i choose first?

im wildsoul

[outer mason]

third one for the shield

the damage on other orbs is really bad

[quasi harness]

hmmm

but in paradise i dont need shields

i need more dmg

xD

[outer mason]

well you can pick whatever you want kek
you'll get all 3 orbs anyway

I'm just telling you the most optimal one

[marsh grove]

I only ever use the orange one on dps these days

the most CP inflation 🙂

[quasi harness]

i chose the yellow one

rip

because tylobic told me its the best one

🙁

[vital latch]

hi, i i buy the challenge premium, this is for one challenge lvl in particular or for all of them ? Challenge express

[jaunty igloo]

for all of them

[marsh grove]

shield is good when you're still learning

and your CP is probably low anyways

shield is a great first choice

[vital latch]

thanks, looks cost effective

[marsh grove]

its good value for the $$, but its only for 1 character. and if you're mokoko you'll get easy lobby anyways

it's the game trying to milk you

but if you're planning on sticking around for awhile and doing future content easier on that char and wanna spend $30 then yeah its good

[vital latch]

theres gem 7 and 8, 100k gold and processed chaos/destiny stone, its save lot of time no ?

[marsh grove]

well, what does your roster look like?

some bonus CP from gems/karma isn't going to save you from getting gatekept once you lose mokoko status if you're a new player with low roster / no title

[vital latch]

2x 168x (2free pass) 2x1615 (up with main quest story)

[quasi harness]

im still dont get any shield, at least inparadise

[marsh grove]

yeah I mean as I said the pass is good value it just depends on your goals

[outer mason]

it triggers when you use your Hyper Awakening Technique skill

[marsh grove]

it's pretty easy to get act 3 / act 4 lobby as mokoko even with lower cp

but if you want to get ahead on that one char for the future, once you graduate from mokoko

and have money to spend

then sure

[vital latch]

I see, actually I only did solo mode (I started playing again three weeks/ 1 month ago.)

[marsh grove]

I enjoy solo mode on many of my chars, you don't NEED the paid express stuff to do solos at all

but if you really wanna juice up 1 main char for current/future group raiding

then it'll give you a decent bit of combat power

[vital latch]

I play without aura, I tell myself I can blow the €30 haha

but yeah u probably right

[marsh grove]

I just wanted to make sure you understand that after you hone to 1710 and lose mokoko status

that having no title + low roster level

is going to get you hard gatekept

regardless of CP

[vital latch]

I understand, anyway i wont push 1710 for sure, have tons of upgrade before

like akrma etc

karma

[marsh grove]

if you plan on playing for awhile, then the paid track is like 1m ish gold worth of stuff for $30 which is really good***

I personally didnt buy it because I already have some gold income

and the pass was only $20 in Korea

they just +50% the price because $$$$

[vital latch]

that the things, i have not at all gold income for a "new" player like me

[marsh grove]

once you do group mord (act 3) and act 4, you'll likely just be getting carried at the start

but if you already have a 1680 and stuff then you've probably got a bit of a feel for the game now so

[vital latch]

ok ok

[marsh grove]

just do what you want to do ye

value is good for that 1 char

[carmine bay]

what's a reasonable combat power for 1700? i'm tryna spend all my bound gold to get 331 on my breaker i'm pretty close to finally getting that done, i'm planning on spending my unbound gold to get proper accessories. currently running mids from the express... i'm not really convinced to buy single highs from the gold shop yet, maybe i should buy from auction house?

[marsh grove]

express doesnt give mids

paid gives mid/mid which are better than single highs

I'd say 1700cp or so is decent for starting 1700ilvl these days

[carmine bay]

maybe it was waymark i don't even know anymore but they're mids

[marsh grove]

ah ye, waymark then

how many phoens do you have?

sometimes people sell cheap high/low or mid/mids

[carmine bay]

like...2k?

2600ish

[marsh grove]

yeah you could easily just keep an eye on the market then

for a set

high/lows are better than mid/mid by a bit but usually more expensive

best is to just link us your char page tho

so we can see it all

your best CP value will likely come from ark grid if you were talking about 331 as in cores

with previous gift + current gift and event we have 3 full pity cores that u can put on any char

link your uwu

[carmine bay]

yeah i missed previous gift

i have 3, now i'm trying to get pity for 33...

i already have the 1

i'm close i just need to lose mokoko

[marsh grove]

astros can hurt though

it took me between 350k - 800k depending on the char/RNG

to cut 17 for 3 order cores

[carmine bay]

yeah i'm already crying honestly

having 0 luck

but atleast after i get cores i can simply spend the bound gold on that char for ark grid

and move onto alts

can i send uwu on dms?

[marsh grove]

people post uwu here all the time, it's not a huge deal but

if you're worried about it then sure

[carmine bay]

i sent in dms

[coral perch]

Hey there! I have a question about my card sets. I currently have Earth, Fire, and Lightning all at level 24. Each of those sets still needs about 5 to 8 legendary cards to be completed.

I have 40+ legendary selector packs, so I could technically just finish them right away. But is it worth using them like that, or should I wait?

[granite maple]

Is LOS not BIS anymore?

[marsh grove]

how does your water set look

ideally you should finish all 4 sets, incase future content needs water

fire is very relevant now (a4)

earth is decently relevant (a3)

[coral perch]

Water is 26 as well

[marsh grove]

lightning is brel but its a joke at this point so not as important

as far as I know they're not going to just update card pack selectors to include new cards so

probably better to just save until you can finish all current card sets

any new card set will just be its own new grind

I'd say fire is the most important now though, if you're at 1720+ doing HM act 4

[marsh grove]

most people default LOS for most raid gates, but some gates still have weakness to others

[coral perch]

I was thinking about earth, some parties are asking to have it on kazeros as well

[marsh grove]

how high is your ilvl?

if you're doing Kaz HM and/or TFM a lot then

people will try to min-max the tiny stagger bonus for the support

with earth

ye

[coral perch]

Main 1740+

[marsh grove]

ah, yeah

just depends on what you wanna do

if you wanna be "safe" or if you want the dmg boost now

for tfm/kaz hm

cause you dont have enough to finish all sets now, right?

how many more packs do u need

I personally dont care at all about lightning or water set but the "smart" thing to do is finish all sets so

[supple shoal]

when im using the express and low on gold i should craft kazeros gear anyways right?

[marsh grove]

if you're just doing solos and dont mind them taking longer you can put it off I guess but it's a pretty significant damage boost

[outer mason]

what matters with ancient T4 gear is the armors
so 5x 2000 gold = 10k gold

[marsh grove]

thought it was 4k per 🤔

[outer mason]

weapon is not worth crafting

[outer mason]

weapon is 4k

[supple shoal]

wait wep is not need to have

aightt i guess?

ill craft few armors then

[marsh grove]

oh if armor is only 2k each then yeah for sure

sorry for bad info

done that shit so many times you'd think I'd know it right by now

[outer mason]

you do solo Act 1 you'll have more than enough gold for crafting full armor

[supple shoal]

okayyy

[acoustic surge]

im losing my mind is this a bug or what ?

happened 3 times in 2 weeks

[outer mason]

are you using a VPN?

[acoustic surge]

no

game just crashes out of nowhere and this happen

last 2 times i just relaunch the game over and over and it just randomly get fixed but now its been like 2 hours

[outer mason]

sorry I don't know much
try this

[fervent mauve]

why does this look fake

doesn't mention how to get it

[outer mason]

what do you mean fake?
and you get can them from the 4th anniversary event shop and Mokoko Bootcamp

[fervent mauve]

they look fake as fuck

that looks like some candy you'd find at a chinashop

[split kayak]

[supple shoal]

the quest isnt here even if i scroll

[marsh grove]

whatchu lookin for

🍭

[granite maple]

didnt they change cube somehow recently

[marsh grove]

uhh

they nerfed drop rate but doubled clear rewards (not secret room rewards)

but that was like

4 months ago

[granite maple]

ah yea

works for me

also remembered the hell key exchange but thats for t4 cube tickets

they removed weeklies and una tokens too right?

[marsh grove]

yeah that's a recent change

weeklies auto-tracked

gold moved to chaos gate

[granite maple]

thank god i hated those

[marsh grove]

1720+ gives 3k bound gold (without secret room)

[granite maple]

epic

it used to be like 600 right

[marsh grove]

er

it used to be 0 guaranteed

I prefered old system

hard for me to make chaos gate some days

[granite maple]

oh yea my bad i forgot that was gold islands

yooo 3x cube tickets

lesgoooo

[marsh grove]

I do 1700 and under on 3x but

the fear of losing out on secret room from 1720 is too strong

I do them all 1x

[granite maple]

id probably do those 3x even if i had a 1700

[outer mason]

elixirs are gone, no need to unlock anything

[granite maple]

ok what that cube was literally 2.5 minutes

[marsh grove]

cube gets scaled just like GR so its always fast in a 4 man group

or if you're soloing well above ilvl

[granite maple]

o wait yea im overgeared for this i thought maybe they nerfed it

[marsh grove]

1st room is still always annoying

can blast the 2nd pretty fast

3rd and 4th have some rng but are quick

when in the world are we getting a new continent?

im tired of south rimeria

I wanna run more story

[granite maple]

crazy

ive spent probably 100 hours doing story on alts and never again

i will KT everything

[marsh grove]

south/north kurz and south rimeria are too good to skip

when im in need of roster exp

tower is gone now so rip ez roster

[granite maple]

i also did tower on like 20 characters

never again

[marsh grove]

alt rosters need their proper love

[granite maple]

i also had 3 alt rosters that i quickly abandoned

[marsh grove]

I play them all like main accounts

❤️

[granite maple]

which orb is best i remember last time it was the healing one

[marsh grove]

projection gives you a shield so its best to get that first

orange one will give you more CP later on when you don't need as much of a crutch

[granite maple]

is it better than thi one

[vast oriole]

No

[marsh grove]

😮‍💨

my man had the OG orb the entire time

[granite maple]

i remember coming back for the paradise stuff and cauttyh said to get this one

because its busted

[marsh grove]

heals a ton yeah

new orange one gives me a lot more CP tho so I just use that these days

old healing one is def more impactful tho

[faint cedar]

depends on if you need to crutch the heal or not

its just a qol thing

[cerulean walrus]

Trying to follow this guide
what should I select for this?
I have 2 relic core slectors and 1 legendary selector
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NGy8_vBBOcWdKPPZcKiNmQ-QfK8peAy2r3SvZExN7HU/edit?tab=t.0

[split kayak]

[shadow pasture]

Well what build do you want to play?

331 or 311

Also the hetsu guide should just tell you everything if you’re actually reading it

[cerulean walrus]

331

[cerulean walrus]

I dont undestand it at all bro

isnt 17p ancient

[shadow pasture]

Go get relic selector on charged shock and shock charge

[cerulean walrus]

relic is only 15p right

[shadow pasture]

Cores can go to 20p if they are relic or higher

You are getting confused with the slots for relic and ancient
