[plucky drum]

i did yes

[vast oriole]

ok

[plucky drum]

i never spend gold on it just free taps

[vast oriole]

yeah theres no really cheap books for aero

[plucky drum]

gem status atm

[vast oriole]

mass increase is a bit cheaper i guess but thats about it

yeah lvl 7s are good

[plucky drum]

yeah books are just so damn expensive..

[lavish mortar]

Books are scam

[vast oriole]

you have all your enlightment potions?

[plucky drum]

pitiful grid set up atm...but its honest work '-'

[azure isle]

92 points

[plucky drum]

working on this

slowly but surely

[lavish mortar]

Mostly just need 14/17p ark grid and youre set

[vast oriole]

yeah its hard

[plucky drum]

x.x

[vast oriole]

you need at least 14p on those 2 relics

oof

[plucky drum]

at least i got the rng?

xD

[plucky drum]

but so far you think im doing okay? and doing all the right thing?

[lavish mortar]

Just getting enlight pots might push you to 2k cp tbh

[vast oriole]

yes

[plucky drum]

oki, that the plan tbh

[vast oriole]

tbh youre just at the mercy of rng now

[plucky drum]

seems like it

[vast oriole]

cant do much

you have all high line on accessories right ?

[plucky drum]

is that the bonus part?

[vast oriole]

ok only 1 ring doesnt have

its a mid low

[plucky drum]

yeah i followed the guide here

[vast oriole]

just need to replace that one one day and youre good

[plucky drum]

it's why i had such low silver..tapping acc and of course being a new player

ill work on that one ring

[vast oriole]

IF

if

big if

you ahve a lot of pheons for 0 reason, could always buy that ring in the market

do not do that unless you have a shitton of pheons

[plucky drum]

[vast oriole]

ok

let me do my chaos

[azure isle]

what makes it use silver to refine accessory that isnt bracelet 👀

[vast oriole]

and i log na

[vast oriole]

hell chests

[azure isle]

[plucky drum]

yep

[vast oriole]

how much unbound gold you have ?

[plucky drum]

not a lot atm

me thinks i saw the ring you're talking about ma

spenny xD

[vast oriole]

ok so tbh its your choice

you could buy a high crit rate line ring in market

wont cost too too much

but it will still costs your gold and pheons

or you can wait for a ring in hell

that high crit line wont give a massive cp jump

and i cant tell you

do that

[plucky drum]

i think i'll just wait

[vast oriole]

ok sure!

[plucky drum]

yeah i think i'll just keep doing what im doing and not be such an insecure player xD

[vast oriole]

yeas no worries

youre doing good

youre just fucked by rng a bit

like all new players

oh, do you have all the skill potions too?

just to be sure

[plucky drum]

i think so?

hmm wait let me see

[long rock]

How do I get more hellfire keystone for gear ? I'm missing a bunch after growth challenge

[vast oriole]

act 1, aegir

also solo mode npc

also

do not craft the weapon first, go full armor

weapon doesnt really matter till way later

[long rock]

yes I started armor

I have 4/5, I did aegir once challenge mode et got the 20 from solo coins

[vast oriole]

you need to do the solo mode version

to get the mats

[long rock]

I did once can i do more ?

[plucky drum]

apparently im missing 3 legendary and 2 greater ones

[vast oriole]

solo and challenge are different

[pale wasp]

are lucky rooms triple in 3x cube

[vast oriole]

or you did solo ?

[plucky drum]

[long rock]

ahh ok

[vast oriole]

nop

[long rock]

I did challenge only

[vast oriole]

well, there you go, something else to do :p

[vast oriole]

how much do you miss for your last armor ?

[plucky drum]

lol yup :p got busy days ahead

aight thanks for the tips ma. pass my bed time, ill pick this back up tomorrow after work x.x

[vast oriole]

yeah i need to gtfo and go sleep too

[long rock]

5 only

which is weird

[vast oriole]

my cats are meowing at me

[vast oriole]

uh yeah thats def weird

[rose wren]

meow back

[vast oriole]

i dont remember what challenge mode gave ngl

[long rock]

challenge gives 125 and coin gives 20

[vast oriole]

but yeah do aegir solo, if you buy the boxes, you will get 40

[long rock]

also is it normal im hitting pity on all gear at this low

[lavish mortar]

On express? Yes.

[long rock]

i'm using ton of books for %

alright

[lavish mortar]

EV is basically pity with express boosting artisans gain

[long rock]

okay

[exotic vapor]

honest question, my mains at 1680 atp and i dont see myself getting to raid much past solo mode, should i start paying more attention to my 1585 alts and get them all into t4 instead or would pushing to 1700 be much more important then having more alts in t4?

[balmy plank]

If you have the resources and mats saved up, it would be nice to get them to tier 4 and park at 1640. With 1580 hell keys being removed it's gonna be a lot harder to push them without help

[exotic vapor]

i run chaos dungeon on all chars daily when i play so they have some mats stockpiled

[balmy plank]

Depending on how fresh you are at 1680 there is a lot of stuff you can work on while parking there in the meantime too

[rose wren]

whiles express active, make the most of honing boost

[exotic vapor]

i've been 1680 for a while atp

i took a break and just came back

i would like to raid more but when i try too i struggle a bunch and end up dead a ton, and i was thinking maybe having more 1640s would help with farming gems or earning a lil more solo mode gold each week etc.

[lavish mortar]

Play how you'd have the most fun

Fuck being optimal

[exotic vapor]

i gave up on being optimal ages ago i just wana do stuff

[obsidian valve]

mhm, being "optimal" in a game like this stresses me out at this age; me like casual

[rose wren]

so many rng, how can u even be lmao

[exotic vapor]

my biggest goal is i want to raid more non solo someday and not be afraid to learn lol

but i think for now i will just refocus on my characters ive neglected so i can earn more t4 stuff

plus more chars to play is fun 🙂

[balmy plank]

If you biggest goal is to learn to raid as a group, honing to 1700 on your main would be good. Take more advantage of the express event, unlock HM Mordum and NM Armoche. Access ark grid. You'll be labeled as a Mokoko and have an easier time getting into group raids

[split kayak]

1700 is goodge

Some event shop items gated with 1700 now

[balmy plank]

Yea. Even if you just collect astrogem chests from event shops without using them yet it's nice to get em early

half my income to +10 one alt all gear

i need more alts to raise the alts to juice my mains

can i just farm on alts for gems instead of dropping thousands of gold for one gem

im close to fusing a 8

[minor igloo]

alts make gold long term. while they're getting up there, all they do is eat gold

[exotic vapor]

Okay, i will do that then and then work on my alts afterward

[long rock]

Do I bother with advanced honing at 1660 or not yet ?

[old peak]

i did it

[long rock]

ty

[elder anchor]

do we have a calc for honing on serca gear?

[bold geyser]

unsure

maxroll will be updated when it comes out

dunno if something already exists

[candid lake]

There is but it's in Korean

Idk where it is tho

https://icepeng.com/refining

[minor grail]

is there any difference going alone or with player in the cube?

[minor igloo]

depends how strong your character is

supports with a support build would of course not go in alone

but most dps can clear on pace with a full group

[minor grail]

no any difference in loot or %?

[minor igloo]

nope

[minor briar]

gold room chances aren’t 3x’d if u care about those

that’s it tho

[silver bronze]

I feel like I get lucky rooms more often

[faint cedar]

Best value is always running individually

3x is for saving time at the cost of the lucky rooms

[silver bronze]

but they were asking if running solo vs running with a group made a difference

not if running them one at a time vs 3x at a time

Thats where I was confused

[exotic vapor]

what does an ideal braclet look like?

[tender flicker]

Depends if support/dps, but 2 stat lines (swift/spec/crit) and then 3 rolled lines appropriate for your class/role. Don't expect to hit a 5 line bracelet though tbh.

[exotic vapor]

Dps mayhem berserker

ah

cause i have this, but, i think it's not as good as i actually thought it was.

im guessing the vitality/mag defense ruins it

[tender flicker]

yeah, and people consider strength something like half a line

[exotic vapor]

Oh fr?

damn

[swift pier]

yeah this is a bad bracelet

basically 2 lines and the stats are green

[exotic vapor]

i figured

[swift pier]

look at some ppl on bible to see what’s good

[exotic vapor]

bible?

[swift pier]

but generally % lines are good, crit hit lines r good, etc

lostark.bible

there’s also a bracelet chart somewhere

[exotic vapor]

Oh they changed the name

ik this site

[swift pier]

does not seem to be pinned but someone probably has it handy

[exotic vapor]

was lookin for it earlier, ty

[swift pier]

some lines give a lot more cp than damage (like outgoing to staggered or the weapon power line the solo shop gives)

but u can also generally go by cp

[strange viper]

you can get semi decent bracelet for 20k bound gold. its not great either but at least it has dmg lines

[exotic vapor]

Where?

[strange viper]

just weapon power basically

the gold shop

[swift pier]

yeah that would be better than what you have on

but the last line kinda sucks

[strange viper]

but you might as well just wait for new season of paradise and get bracelet from hell.

[exotic vapor]

oh

true

thats in like a week right

[strange viper]

well 2 weeks, since we dont get keys on the first week (I think?)

but yea

[exotic vapor]

not sure, i was here for s1 but not s2

[strange viper]

i dont think you are in any hurry to get into turbo sweatlord endgame raids anyway so you prolly can wait 2 weeks

[exotic vapor]

I dont have that much confidence in myself no

[swift pier]

if ur getting gatekept get the bracelet it will give you a lot more cp than ur current

[exotic vapor]

I don't think i get gatekept per say

im pretty sure i am just bad

[swift pier]

but if u have reroll tickets and pheons u can also get like a crit/str or swift/str 5 liner on the ah and gamble

that’s ok we all are

[exotic vapor]

either that or it's cause of my class but

i REALLY doubt its cause of a class

[minor briar]

nah just wait for hell to get bracelets, ah only for whales

[exotic vapor]

I dont have much gold anyway rn, spent it finishing my advanced hones

well i say finish but

its not finish lol

[silver bronze]

Does like an easy to lookup weakness list exist somewhere?

[coral perch]

what should I take as support?

[minor briar]

to activate ark grid, 8 costs, to min max 9/10

[coral perch]

so 8 costs is stability and corrosion?

[minor briar]

yep

[coral perch]

thanks

[minor briar]

[tender flicker]

Prioritize red>blue

[lucid axle]

do you guys think i should have AH40 on weapon before i hit 1720?

[strange viper]

If you can afford it, why not? Seems like these things keep doubling in price every week so.. 🤔

[warm obsidian]

How much cp you have on that char?

[lucid axle]

300 is crazy wtf

[lucid axle]

2459

[strange viper]

was like 270 last week and 170 a week before that.. now theyre 359? chaos/guardian change working like a charm.

[lucid axle]

it’s a alt but considering if AH for weapon is worth

[warm obsidian]

Advanced honing gives more cp than regular if you have a lot of bound mats you better ah weapon

[lucid axle]

yeah ppl to lazy to do guardian still until the new one comes out and bots can’t farm them

it’ll probably drop a bit next week but not 100% sure on that

[outer mason]

guardians don't give red stones, it won't change a thing

[lucid axle]

yeah have the mats it’s just more so the gold and how much i’m willing the spend 600k is quite a decent chunk

[lucid axle]

oh i thought they gave mats

nvm

ggs

it’ll keep going up

[uneven ferry]

Best class to start with as beginner

[strange viper]

aeromancer

[lucid axle]

guess all the mats i’ve been hoarding are now having value

[uneven ferry]

Is deadeye worth the try?

[lucid axle]

depends

pistoler yes

EW can be kinda confusing to beginner

[uneven ferry]

It seems cool yet i want smth that deals good dmg

Preferably meta

[lucid axle]

ppl in KR consider aeromancer WF broken for some reason

and it’s easy to play

we haven’t gotten the update yet for the balance patch it’ll be next week so we aren’t really sure rn

[uneven ferry]

My first pick was deadeye cuz its hard, i like competitive gameplay but i want smth rewarding

[strange viper]

Meta changes all the time, Even in the same raid on different gates.. But I guess deadeye is not as horrible as it used to be, its still among the least popular classes and behind Gunslinger (female counterpart).

[uneven ferry]

Worth the time spent to learn

[lucid axle]

db or arcana

[sweet pivot]

hey guiys, between all the life skill jobs, what is the most profitable to make gold from? I don't carte about time consuming, only payday gold

[lucid axle]

are probably considered the sweatiest classes

[strange viper]

If you want you can go dig trough the raid performance for the endgame raids and see what classes are consistantly in the top 10

[strange viper]

probably flower picking

[uneven ferry]

How to check that?

[lucid axle]

https://lostark.bible/stats/raids#boss=Death+Incarnate+Kazeros&difficulty=Hard&patch=jan26&filterBy=ilvl&type=udps&minIlvl=1730&maxIlvl=1770

[uneven ferry]

Tysm guys

[lucid axle]

DI about to go to the moon

[strange viper]

Sort by cp and narrow down the bracket to reasonable levels to get a better idea about how the different classes perform in each gate.

[lucid axle]

well reasonable lvl is hard to say

can be a bit subjective

[uneven ferry]

I see gunslinger and gunlancer

[strange viper]

actually it doesnt matter, but you can look up lets say how classes wiht 3k cp perform in kazeros hard

[uneven ferry]

Gunslinger is female version, what bout gunlancer?

Diff class like gunslinger?

[lucid axle]

they are two different classes

[strange viper]

gunlancer is male only for now, its a warrior class. almost like a tank

[lucid axle]

gunslinger is the female version of deadeye

[uneven ferry]

Oh so gunlancer is third pick of the gunner?

[lucid axle]

no

[strange viper]

No

[lucid axle]

gunlancer is a warrior class

not a gunner

[uneven ferry]

Oh

Right

[strange viper]

For gunner class you got artillerist, machinist, sharpshooter and deadeye (males) and gunslinger for female

[lucid axle]

keep in mind we are getting a balance patch this coming wednesday that’ll buff 3 classes by a lot so those ones will shift

[uneven ferry]

Do we know which class's will be adjusted?

[strange viper]

Fair warning for male gunners tho, they are kinda unpopular and you prolly wont find many skins for them in the market if you are into that.

[lucid axle]

https://maxroll.gg/lost-ark/news/kr-balance-patch-february-2026

[uneven ferry]

Im just into dps side

[minor briar]

in this months patch? just striker pally sh and scouter

[lucid axle]

WF aero apparently got a decent buff too

just keep in that chasing what’s meta rn just means the class you pick will most likely just get nerfed

better to pick what you enjoy

a lot of this game what makes you good is personal skill and not really the class itself

[dark sable]

will the ah of tier 4 wpn be transfered to serca wpn tier? (is it tier 5 or smth like sidereal wpn)

[lucid axle]

ah transfers

not t5

just a soft reset

[winter radish]

hi hi, im new to the game and its rly complicated so i have a question, are this cards good or important? and if yes how can i know which ones i should use

[dim pulsar]

Light of Salvation is ur SET to go for 99% of ur time now

[indigo breach]

Is there a way to test how much stagger i can do?

[dim pulsar]

other sets are WAY into endgame (and also LONG to gather)

but u want to "use" all cards to gain PASSIVE bonuses like spec/dmg vs demons and many others

[dim pulsar]

go do solo guardians and pick stagger dmg in dps meter

[supple shoal]

go ga

gs

lovely claas

if you interested in gunners

[lucid axle]

i play SS

i love snipe

[supple shoal]

heard hes nice aswell

[indigo breach]

Ah ty

[supple shoal]

i love rose blossom on tth

[winter radish]

ahh oke, thank you!

[supple shoal]

minisurge

[lucid axle]

haven’t tried TTH since it’s gotten its rework so no clue

but yeah looks cool

[split kayak]

is goodge

def feels better to play

also gs skins are good

[lucid axle]

i’d probably like it more then PM never really liked it to many buttons you can press

[supple shoal]

underbooba for life

[supple shoal]

i really like pm

but tth is nice since 5 rifle skills

and feels good and active

while not being that hard still

[lucid axle]

RE DB is already sweaty enough for me don’t need more

[cyan kiln]

Shotgun? You mean

[strange viper]

I have artillerist in my main6 and a shrpshooter rat alt.

[lucid axle]

i don’t have a arti yet in my roster so i actually don’t really have a feel for how the class is played

[strange viper]

Its like reflux sorc but you are immortal

[lucid axle]

just my impression of the class is that it’s a slightly better destroyer feel wise

only played igniter

[strange viper]

yea well igniter is ass, reflux is the fast paced, spammy, fire everything everwhere all at once type

[lucid axle]

think also reflux got a rework/change in build a few months ago so i’m not to sure how it works now

[strange viper]

firepower arti is similar to reflux

[lucid axle]

haven’t really gotten the chance to push my alts again but will give arti a try next express they give out

[lean horizon]

Guys, i want to ask. is this key useless for next season?

[split kayak]

tf not deleted

skem game

[outer mason]

yep, can't use them now, can't use them next season

[supple shoal]

arti is peak

i have 1540 one with 100q wep

he was so juiced back in the day

i think i might push him honestly

was hearing hate on barrage in later raids tho

[indigo breach]

What is the strongest stagger class and spec in the game?

I know the weakest is CO summoner tho

[lucid axle]

destroyer or gunalncer maybe?

[indigo breach]

Okie

[fossil quartz]

Hello there. I'm new. Playing Soul Eater with the Harvest Moon guide. I'm Lvl 60 already. The guide says there would be a spell called "Guillotine Swing" which i'm unable to find. What am i doing wrong? It seems like i unlocked all the existing spells already but this spell isn't there.

[gray verge]

they get removed when next season starts, cant complete them as menu/ui is locked out until S3

this stuff gets deleted as well

[shy chasm]

You used the powerpass?

[gray verge]

press K to open your skills menu to ass all your skills.
If you used the power pass it should be available, if you haven't you might be too low level to use it.

[fossil quartz]

@shy chasm @gray verge i don‘t have a powerpass. i‘m questing in south vern right now. when i press K and scroll down it doesn’t show me a hidden spell or an spell that hasn‘t been unlocked yet.

[spring spruce]

how many awakenings are you able to choose from?

[gray verge]

take a screenshot using Win + Shift + S and post it

of your skills menu

[fossil quartz]

Macro didn‘t work. I uploaded a photo instead.

[spring spruce]

haven't done awakening quest I see

have you gone to trixion and spoken with Beatrice?

[fossil quartz]

Oh boy. It seems like i had mistaken south and nord vern. i have the questline from Beatrice. but i falsely thought i need to finish south vern first in order to be able to finish it. 🫣

Thank you for your sharp eyes. @spring spruce i know successfully have unlocked the spell.

[rich verge]

Is it worth to buy +19/20 books for wep upgrade do we think?

[livid violet]

did u finished AH 21-40 on your weapon?

if not, you should do that 1st

[minor briar]

i would not

still quite expensive

but honing calc might say diff idk

[indigo breach]

It's usually cheaper when u buy it directly from auction tho

50 gold per tailor book

[obtuse totem]

Yo! I’m new to the game and still trying to figure out which class to main. I’m leaning towards a support role, but I'm not sure which one is the most beginner-friendly and which one is the most wanted in end-game gameplay.
Thanks!

[lavish mortar]

Theyre all wanted in end game (if youre well geared)
Pally or valk are easiest

[vast oriole]

i would add artist in the beginner friendly

the buff is positional but rest of the class is very very easy to understand

just dont go with bard

(lot of people loves bard but shes significantly harder to play properly)

https://docs.google.com/document/d/15nQq0sDJnQOC4fU7OmQ4OvJprdwxjTNX-fbf394qirE/edit?tab=t.0 you can read this

[obtuse totem]

Thanks a lot for the quick answers and the guide! Glad to hear Artist is beginner-friendly, I'll definitely look into it. I'm going to dive into the Google Doc to learn more about the different playstyles. Appreciate the help!

[vast oriole]

youre welcome

(im very heavily biased toward artist tbh, class is fun)

[plain sorrel]

Windfury aero more fun

[astral temple]

when are they going to make support gunslinger

[plain sorrel]

Yeah GS buff with T and A

[obtuse totem]

I just watched some raid gameplay and it looks pretty fun. The jumping skills that give shields are kinda goofy. I think I'll go with Artist, I'll figure out how to play her properly as I progress anyway. Thanks for the help!

[winter radish]

hi i can get now ring and other things with + stats, for which stats should i look when i play the souleater girl?

[balmy plank]

?accessory

[buoyant dock]

Recommended Accessory Lines for Support and DPS _

[balmy plank]

You get a free set of single mid lines from the Waymark missions. Not great but theyre okay to start & replace later.
You can buy a set of single high line accessories from the Growth Shop for gold. A better starter set but costs gold

[winter radish]

uh is the waymark mission late? because im still on the first island lol

[balmy plank]

A bit later yea. Im thinking for ancient accessories at 1680.
The line recommendations in the image above are still the same for relic but because you replace accessories for a permanent set at 1680 you don't need to worry tooo much about them until then

[winter radish]

level 1680??

[balmy plank]

Item level 1680

What item level are you right now?

[winter radish]

hm i think 111.66

[vast oriole]

youre welcome, have fun

[balmy plank]

Oh, youre fresh fresh. If youre doing the story you don't really need to worry about your gear for a very long time. Youll get chests with gear in it at the end of almost every continents story.
Alternatively if you want to skip to end game faster there is an item level 1640/Tier 4 power pass available

[winter radish]

ohh that sounds good then i can just play and enjoy missions

this game is already complicated enough xD

[balmy plank]

Yea, it can be

[winter radish]

ahh oke, thanks!

[supple shoal]

which one for gs

tth

[tender flicker]

Stability probably the most useful when just starting ark grid. Activating red cores are more impactful than blue. Stability has the lowest willpower cost, so easiest to cut something usable.

[supple shoal]

okayy

[tender flicker]

Pretty generic ark grid advice, should apply to every class really.

hi i have a question, how do i get the spell Guillotine Swing? i dont have it for some reason

[shadow pasture]

are you level 50 on the class

[winter radish]

no my combat level is 25

[vast oriole]

thats why

[bold geyser]

you get more skills as you level 😄

[winter radish]

ohh

so i need level 50 for it

[bold geyser]

(not actually sure, thats slayer yeah?)

[vast oriole]

you get it fromt he first awakenign quest at 50 yes

[lavish mortar]

SE

[winter radish]

ah oke, thanks!

[bold geyser]

this whole time i just thought it was just "guillotine" 😨

[lavish mortar]

Thats slayers skill lol

[bold geyser]

whoops

[rose wren]

completion of north vern msq aswell unless its been adjusted

[winter radish]

uh what means msq?

[shadow pasture]

Main story quest

[winter radish]

ah oke

[rose wren]

r there no gamers anymore lol

[balmy plank]

We read books

[eternal rain]

I just thought about it but for alts that you only lvl with paradise it's better to advance hone right ?

Cuz it's guaranteed progress nah ?

[shadow pasture]

There’s an optimal honing path that you want to follow

I free tap and adv hone after 1680

I do weapon to 18 first then free tapping armors is only 20 a piece so if you can get one or 2 a week it adds up

Meanwhile can use abidos on adv hone

Nope

[vast oriole]

xdd

in short

[primal herald]

but then i started cutting paradise bracelets, accesories and astrogems

[vast oriole]

do infinite chaos and get silver fate ember

[primal herald]

and i actually deleted 100m silver

and now im legit preferring to cut astrogems with gold than with silver

its crazy

[primal herald]

wdym infinite

i can only do 1 per day per char

lol

huh

theres a paradise hell silver chest?

i dont think ive ever even registered that as an option

[vast oriole]

yes

[primal herald]

i need to start taking those lmao

[vast oriole]

i meant infinite chars xd

[vast oriole]

no

got removed with season 2

[primal herald]

aw

[lucid axle]

will there be any changes to paradise in s3?

[tender flicker]

Probably. They're also removing t3 paradise.

[livid fossil]

Yeah if 1580 get f

[lucid axle]

i saw the eye of arkesia thing but i havent watched it yet

[tender flicker]

[lucid axle]

well yeah that was mentioned in march team update

[livid fossil]

https://tenor.com/view/nathan-hungry-nothing-hungry-for-nothing-nathan-for-you-gif-26707333

[lucid axle]

honestly suprised to see t3 go up so much

[coarse mica]

Probably cause they removing 1580 Keys

[livid fossil]

People starting act like snow storm and buying everything lol

[shy chasm]

wtf

t4 isnt even close to that

[warm field]

You should see the t3 Tailoring books 500g+ a pop on the lvl 11-15 books. Wild.

[gray verge]

that happened with Phantom books

since Echidna/Behe generates 16-19 Decay books but not 11-15 ones

[warm field]

Ah right

[pure basin]

did the server crash?

or its a me thing

[balmy plank]

Someone else did in another chat

[candid lake]

6 people in my raid d/ced

xD

[pure basin]

g2 mordum....

great..

[livid fossil]

lol

[rose wren]

pray ticket

[split kayak]

Crazy

Ags eos ed themselves

[vast oriole]

its just one server that crashed

can happen

[indigo breach]

Thaemine crashed

Probably Breshaza too

[vast oriole]

yeah only naw crashed

[candid lake]

2 people in my group both from thaemine survived

[candid lake]

although the majority of the party was thaemine tho

[bronze crown]

Nice game 👍🏽

[candid lake]

what server is that gs from?

i cant read it

nineveh?

[bronze crown]

Ninnever, inannah, vaigrys

[split kayak]

Dc right on boss death

[vast oriole]

wtf is that quality tho

[bronze crown]

😂😂😂

[rose wren]

360p

[vast oriole]

5dc at the same time is kinda funny tho

big strike

[candid lake]

are those the people that d/ced?

[indigo breach]

They went into that safezone of Thaemine's space slash

[bold geyser]

"safe"

[candid lake]

fk them tho... i'm on thaemine and i d/ced

[indigo breach]

That safezone in solo Thaemine g3, don't u remember?

[bold geyser]

boss cant hurt me if i close the game

[kindred sonnet]

did they take out pvp in lost ark

[rose jewel]

yes

most of it at least

[kindred sonnet]

is there anyway to have fair 1v1s

or nah

[paper walrus]

you need to have the same gear

and even then you might have slight advantages from miniscule stats like roster potions, card books, and skins

dont forget karma, pet ranch, pvp badges, paradise orbs

[rose jewel]

hmm, today i learned a new tech for "game crashes/freezes"

Event ID 10016 or some shit

quite obscure

[rose wren]

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-client/application-management/event-10016-logged-when-accessing-dcom but the error is too vague, 1 related number to microsoft, could be anything

[rose jewel]

but it happens when the game goes kaboom

i have it on my event viewer so yeah

i do have the same issue

thus i investigated shit, aka did my homework

if i dont have any future issues then it is indeed a fix

and its not even win11 now, coz im on 10, so its a general windows shit for unknown reasons

[solar rivet]

Is Remaining Energy bad now, or am I doing something wrong?

[rose jewel]

the latter

give us some context

[lavish mortar]

RE is strong, but has a decently high skill ceiling so you gotta be good to get a lot out of it

[turbid apex]

when you're done karma is there anything to do with your karma pots other than convert to aegir mats and use for materials chests?

[lucid axle]

yeah ceiling of the class is very high

whats ur surge CPM?

[rose jewel]

nothing, feel free to convert, just be sure you're rank6 on all

[turbid apex]

[azure isle]

is purify rune for self or party

[lone hamlet]

hi guys

do i take more dmg if my armor pieces arent 1710 for the last act?

[balmy plank]

If you overhone wep and your gear is way under ilvl then your armor will have lower defense/hp stats and stuff yes

I don't think they ever changed anything with the ilvl/defense thing so you do take more damage

[lone hamlet]

all my armors are at 1705 is tht ok?

[balmy plank]

thats fine

it used to be more of an issue when people massively over honed weapon and a single hone was 15 ilvl. It created a much bigger gap

These days it largely isnt an issue

[tender flicker]

If you're arcana, you are on the squishy side. That said, the goal is to generally either to not get hit or dps while protected by the support.

[lone hamlet]

okies thanks!!!

is there anything i shud know before going into last act on normal mode first time?!

[tender flicker]

Have you watched a guide?

[balmy plank]

Kazeros? Just make sure to watch a guide

[lone hamlet]

yaa tht i did!

[tender flicker]

There are mechs where 1 person can definitely wipe the raid, and some of his patterns can near 1 shot a squishy so be aware of what to avoid

[azure isle]

how many bottles does 1 to 21 need

[tender flicker]

20 initial unlock, 30 per level after

[lavish mortar]

170 per tree

So 510 total

[balmy plank]

Then you should be okay. These days people are over geared so if anything youll skip final mechs.
Be careful of his identity attacks that can 1 shot you.
Save your counter skill in G1 x700 mech so you get more stagger buffs
In G2 during the collesium thing where you break the left and right walls. If youre targeted just dont panic and watch his fist. When he moves his arm back to wind up a punch youre good to move out of the way.
In G2 during the stagger mechs where you stand in the front just be careful not to use skills that move you around so you dont accidently stun people

[azure isle]

170 with first unlock?

[tender flicker]

Its 170 starting at nothing

[lavish mortar]

170 from nothing to rank 6 yea

[balmy plank]

20+30x5 x 3 trees

170 x 3

[azure isle]

stop mathing

damages my brain

[balmy plank]

[azure isle]

i ask that u say 150 we good

[lone hamlet]

thank u!!

a little scared

[balmy plank]

He's annoying but mechanically not that hard. Don't worry

[azure isle]

im gonna have 3 relic book selectors with mordum balls exchange and assuming next msq gives one is it worth to buy a 5th book and upgrade a universal engraving like adrenaline or grudge or save until i can max one?

[lavish mortar]

I'd upgrade one, might as well

[balmy plank]

If you have the gold, worth is up to you. Upgrading grudge is nice

[azure isle]

one book wouldnt hurt

[lavish mortar]

Adren is more dmg, but not every class runs it these days xdd
Depends on roster but grudge always safe to get

[tender flicker]

You have spec pet and wealth runes?

[balmy plank]

Grudge is universal and 100k more expensive than Adren these days

[tender flicker]

RE is okay now, not top tier like its been before in the past imo. Though its pretty punishing to miss certain skills.

[azure isle]

225k vs 300k

critical wallet damage

[tender flicker]

Its also kinda lousy at solo raids I'd say. You want to back attack but have aggro all the time, and you get skills interrupted since you're getting focused.

[plucky drum]

New eye on arkasia. Who dis?

[lucid axle]

that isnt really context ur just telling us what ur build ur playing which is fine if thats what ur asking for

[tender flicker]

Would also say RE is a class that needs "hands" and a certain amount of raid knowledge to perform well.

[lucid axle]

do you have bible?

this isnt really saying anything

ur build is fine like i said

it looks to be more of a skill problem

no offence

[rose jewel]

@solar rivetgive us your character name and we'll check on the bible site

that alone doesnt tell us anything at all

[tender flicker]

The setup so far looks fine

[rose jewel]

well yes but

the more info the better

besides, DB early is kinda sucky

[tender flicker]

I just kinda got the impression its the average new/returning player on a RE blade

[rose jewel]

gotta work extra

[rose wren]

better seeing accessories,gems,ark grid,passive

[tender flicker]

sure

[solar rivet]

Asterisc

[solar rivet]

Yes, I know that.

[tender flicker]

Oh, this is a real fresh character

[lucid axle]

youre 1640 why do you think you are bad?

[rose jewel]

you aint doing dmg on a fresh 1640, dont expect miracles brother

invest in her and when you're 1680 at the very east then come back for more advice

for now, 1- hone to 1680, 2- start working on the rest of the skill point potions and enlight potions/bloodclaw fragments

anything under 1680 sucks period

can she deal dmg to clear stuff at that item level? yes
is she bonkers damage that early? far from it, besides missing the QoL surge from enlight80

[solar rivet]

Okay, thank you so much. I really love the community of this game. ❤️

[rose jewel]

also you're missing 2 books to legendary it seems, so yeah your char needs a lot of work, but your focus is to hone to 1680

any accessory you get right now at relic rarity is gonna get replaced super fast

not worth the investment or headache to get stuff

[lucid axle]

and yeah youre playing a very hard class for someone who is just starting too

[rose wren]

we try like our best to grow the game but the nasty gets rid of them, so player count dead

[lucid axle]

so makes things a little more difficult

if thats why u think ur lacking in dmg

but yeah youre fresh in general rn if you are comparing yourself to ppl you see in videos you are far from where they are at it isnt a fair comparison

[minor igloo]

it will never be a fair comparison unless you know you're 1:1 in skill and gear

just hit boss and enjoy the ride

[lucid axle]

well yeah just like number wise like you seeing they are hitting there surges for 600m+

theres just a massive gap in gear

but yeah its fine most of the content rn its super easy to meet the minimum dmg for raids so dont worry about it

[wise juniper]

Very roughly --- how much does a chaos core 17 points give you in terms of Combat Score?

[balmy plank]

Very roughly? very very roughly? 200cp? maybe?

It kind of depends if youre getting it from scratch or upgrading from a legendary core or something

[wise juniper]

So comparing it 17P choas, to NOTHING, it's rougly 200cp?

[balmy plank]

You asked for roughly and that is my rough wild guess

That's what I roughly feel in my soul. Not what the game accurately reflects

[wise juniper]

Ok thanks

[azure isle]

i went to check the gk community doc and saw the skills/gems part updated then i went ingame to update my gk but somehow both of my presets for gems have the same gem setup despite me setting up individually for each spec, is this a bug or something cuz i never touched it before and wouldnt want happen again

[candid lake]

are they all the bound

gems?

that are tuned?

thes eones

[azure isle]

Yes purple shiny rocks

my page 1 was hs and 2 was dr but both pages were dr for some reason

[west eagle]

does the founder's pack in the f4 shop give royal crystals like the one on steam DLC page?

[balmy plank]

They do yes

They are the same bundles for for some reason in game it doesnt show the RC

[supple shoal]

thats good once you have good gear and wanna compare to good players of same class i guess

if you get same numbers or similar as someone and you have same or similar skill you can do whtever they do

[vague silo]

can someone tell what should i do at 1700 beside core for ark grid

[rose jewel]

i mean that alone will keep you grinding for a good while

whatever you did + act 4 raid, in group, coz you cant solo it

[hollow anchor]

do we know if next week the event has an ilvl cutoff or what the rewards are? the additional progression event

[vague silo]

no

[vague silo]

i have enough gold to get to 1710 but i will lose my mokoko leaf

[balmy plank]

There is no ilvl cap. We don't know what rewards are. Itll be the usual "road" event

[hollow anchor]

mokoko leaf is very strong

[hollow anchor]

ty

[rose jewel]

https://youtu.be/Abz5i93-2pI?t=214

[vague silo]

i know that why i trying to do everything while i have it but i just dont know what to do beside core once a week

[rose jewel]

is your character/roster developed enough to not look bad

if not, stay as a leaf and keep improving everything

[vague silo]

wanna check my character for me

[rose jewel]

karma, accessories, bracelet, books (engraves), keep working on ark grid, skill/enlight pots

i mean no

but send it anyway

https://tenor.com/view/sleeping-cat-sleep-nap-background-gif-11274985895828204776

(a joke if you didnt get it)

[vague silo]

(https://lostark.bible/character/NA/Xergoik) https://lostark.bible/character/NA/Heavenquaker

[hollow anchor]

dont spend any gold on karma at this point. you need ark grid badly

[rose jewel]

focus on ark grid yeah

rest looks good

[vague silo]

so just hope i get my core and gems fast lmao

[hollow anchor]

you buy out the box on act 4, and bought the solo shop 40k bound gold ark grid item, and event ark grid stuff right

[vague silo]

yeah\

[hollow anchor]

once you get 200 of core essence u can buy a box with relic/ancient core

[vague silo]

how long do that take to get to 200

[candid lake]

if u have the worst luck ever and never get a legendary from act 4

tyhen 50 weeks at max

[hollow anchor]

anniversary event gives 50

[candid lake]

but it goes down if u get more epics and if u do kaz

[vague silo]

that the thing trying to stay below 1710 for the leaf

[paper walrus]

relic pity

[candid lake]

for nm it's only legendary pity

and i think it's like over 50

like 55 or some shit

[paper walrus]

oh

L

[candid lake]

which makes like 0 sense

[supple shoal]

hone 1553 alts to 1560 or give main more cp (1700ilvl) id buy lvl7 gems from solo shop

[lucid axle]

u have mokoko status rn so you dont really need to worry about your main

[supple shoal]

okay so hone alts it is

still mordum hm gatekeeping will prob be real with my 1450cp

[lucid axle]

yeah get your alts up so you can farm more gold

until you feel ready to push out of mokoko status or about to lose status for just that raid then id say thats when you have to otherwise its optional

[supple shoal]

aight tyy

i only have 2 alts

well

whatever

1670 can do full solo though

echidna aegir brel

how do ppl take the jg duty on mordum stage break

ik the one with mark is the one that doing it, but how is it decided

that d be nice

i tought about making a new alt

its like ill wait

[paper walrus]

you can also just check in game

click gate info

[supple shoal]

true

doc is better tho

[minor briar]

huh, u just kt to 1580 no?

u cant hone to 1560

[faint roost]

How hard is brelshaza and mordum solo compared to echidna and aegir 1?

Would it be pretty chill to clear with 900 cp

Also im 1690 with my orignal relic t4 gear. When do i get to gear transfer. Like in t3 you had valt/vyk to brel to akkan gear

[paper walrus]

act 1

[supple shoal]

i meqnt 1653

[minor briar]

idk if u were taking bound gold from hell

[supple shoal]

ofc

[minor briar]

but i'd only hone ur alts with that

[supple shoal]

not unbound?

[minor briar]

save unbound for ur mains progression

thats how u funnel now

if u dont want negative roi alts

[supple shoal]

aight

[minor briar]

easy enough
900 cp is a bit low but might be enough

[supple shoal]

will get alts to 1680 and just do act1-3 solo for gold

how bad is valk's heal

i feel like i dont get sustained

[minor briar]

they have less shields and dr than the other classes

might be why

the heal is actually decent

[supple shoal]

[tender flicker]

It’s not as strong as say an artist or bard heal unless stacked, but it doesn’t have a trade off for using it. Artist and bard both lose dmg buffing to heal. Though like all supports, most mitigation should be through shielding rather than healing.

[paper walrus]

its decent for burst healing, constant healing is pretty weak

and prog really likes constant healing

i feel otherwise just now

but what do i know, i dont have supp
maybe it's just me getting hit a lot cus first time learning the stage

[frail gust]

can anyone help with world tree leaf 39?

[minor briar]

check the wtl guide on maxroll

[frail gust]

it's not working for me so I had some questions for someone that already did it

[minor briar]

oh

uhh let me see on the guide

r u at the exchange part?

[frail gust]

I exchanged for the lure, right clicked the lure for the quest

it consumed it, and now it says to catch an ancient volcano fish at the fishing spot

locating doesn't work but it brings to abidos garrison so I've been fishing there

4k life energy in and I still don't have it so I'm not sure if I'm just supposed to keep fishing or interact with something

[minor briar]

what does the quest say

[minor briar]

hmm, theres only one spot

so it might just be a rare drop

[frail gust]

can't find anything online so I'm hoping it's just keep fishing until it pops

[minor briar]

ye no mentions of it in this channel

[frail gust]

thank you for your time though I appreciate it

[minor briar]

good luck

[honest ledge]

Will 1730 keys have their loot table updated after serca release and should we be holding our hell keys from pre serca at the off chance they also get the updated loot table

[minor briar]

what changes?

idr what korea got

if anything

[outer mason]

I think they're talking about tier 4.5 materials

[minor briar]

ye no clue if kr has that

[honest ledge]

Kr has the new mats in their 1730 keys

1730 is their highest key

[dark sable]

what best to do on main? use 9 cube ticket or craft 3blue season3 paradise keys or 1leg 1 epic key paradise key (currently 1710)

[minor briar]

i would jsut see if its mentioned in the patch notes

or in a team update

[minor briar]

how many mats do u have?

[dark sable]

110k red 150k blue and theses

(tier 4 ah on wpn and armor so ah support materials useless in that screen)

[minor briar]

have u been taking fusions from hell?

[dark sable]

yh

[minor briar]

and how much gold r u on?

[dark sable]

but had only 1 round of paradise on that char (gk)

[minor briar]

oh right

like 2 weeks or smth

[dark sable]

currently 500g but crafting abidos in a row

[dark sable]

nah missed 1st weeek of gk so rlly 1 week of paradise

[minor briar]

i'd probably just hold the cubes til a few weeks into paradise

and see ur fusion total and gold

and if u still need fusion to hit 1720 or watever u wanted, then convert

and hopefully enough gold to finish whatever systems u need to do too on top of honing

[dark sable]

well since i have only epic on cores and green blue astrogems i only need to finish evolution karma

[minor briar]

so ur spending most of ur gold on crafting abidos?

[dark sable]

i sell my abidos

[minor briar]

ah

then u gotta find the right balance of gold and fusions by the time u wanna hone

the next event might help too

[dark sable]

hard pushed 1710 have almost no shards left rn

[minor briar]

oh that too

[dark sable]

yh last week was honing day to day then run out of shards every day xd

[minor briar]

i usually like honing all in one sesh

just so i can see the total mats vs used mats/avg etc

[dark sable]

was trying to get 1710 bfore reset to get expert tokens

[minor briar]

ahh, makes sense

10 weeks for expert shop

[dark sable]

btw im +18 ah30 should i go +20 bfore ah40 or push ah40?

[dark sable]

craved for these core essence couldn't activate destiny on moon cuz of leg core

[jolly geyser]

any know where i can find tips or whats best for predator slayer regarding stone engraving?

its all pretty similar

thought maybe +20 was better than ah40

[jolly geyser]

ah, rn i have grudge and rc lvl 2 idk if thats good or bad

[minor briar]

7/7 is fine ye

but ofc u take hell rocks for 9/7+

if thats wat u need over other boxes

[jolly geyser]

i got 15 soaring stone kits or whatever its called so ill prob change it?

[minor briar]

nah, the bonus effect makes it better

[dark sable]

on shitty alt got it after 12 stones
on main used more than 100 still not even a 7/7

[minor briar]

sure

[somber steeple]

guys how do i get rid of this item?

[split kayak]

drag out from bag?

[somber steeple]

i cropped this out mb*

[minor briar]

put on an alt and forget/delete char

[indigo breach]

If it's the honing book from event, then it will automatically disappear after event ends

^ this should help out

[dull steppe]

Thanks

[supple shoal]

this worth it to push alt to 1660 so it can do aegir?

its like back in 5 weeks ish since

hmmmge

[balmy plank]

Worth is completely up to you

Assuming you intend to play this character for future content, you HAVE to do it at some point

[azure isle]

since theres no more hell for 1585 is it only dailies that feed them resources to 1640?

besides one time crucible rewards, which doesnt have fusions in it

[astral root]

solo shop

[astral root]

theoretically if you know someone cool enough

you can just chain rested GRs with a carry

[azure isle]

[supple shoal]

id carry u bro

[azure isle]

rest bonus is that good?

[supple shoal]

np

D:

[astral root]

the rest is more so out of lazyness

more than anything

[azure isle]

i cant even sustain your ass in mordum u gonna get one tapped by argeos

[azure isle]

meh

[astral root]

cube tickets carry could also work for leaps but requires a more specific set of circumstances

[supple shoal]

bru

fu

[astral root]

or duo

[azure isle]

theyre rarer than me getting a gold box that is more than 10k from embers

[supple shoal]

acually im good argeos

bich

getting 50% on my lvl5gem alts constantly

[astral root]

also more hilariously if you need them Radiant leaps are more expensive than destinys on NA

hence the "carry" idea

[azure isle]

that is funny

[astral root]

grab your roster and get to printing

[azure isle]

only got 2 slots left

[astral root]

IMO tho, after a certain point i think it becomes just a matter of grinding out your chaos

[azure isle]

atleast i got 2 off to the paradise bracket

[astral root]

plus all taps at that range should be full books anyway

i think your roster is in a good position to just wait for south rimeria passes

[azure isle]

how often does that happen

[astral root]

my guess is next one will be in june after the merges

[azure isle]

cuz i want to play something new

june

[astral root]

but if you have time

you might as well just KT to north vern and grind it out

[azure isle]

i saved gold to kt up to but not south kurzan and play it for roster xp and some potential cards but no paradise gonna hurt a bit

[astral root]

Your roster doesn't make enough income to make that imo

[azure isle]

wdym

[astral root]

i think doing the MSQ would also be good for you for roster exp

[azure isle]

i make 240k

[astral root]

you should literally be smashing 1680s if you actually do want to play those characters

Especially if ppl are right and saying serca is gonna have another set of gold nerfs

[azure isle]

theyre bottlenecked by fusions

cant hone

[astral root]

and honing for 1710/1720 is expensive

• ark grid

• karma

[azure isle]

i enjoy them as is

ill try to get them to solo mordum

but thats it

i upgrade in order until its timegated

gk is at that point so im working on valk now until its only ark grid and gems

then arcana and so on

[astral root]

at the end of the day you have to keep in mind that lower raids are going to get nerfed eventually

[azure isle]

i dont know how different 1640 and 1690/1700 is but i do enjoy those at their current state

[azure isle]

gotta adjust according to the income, no reason to rush anything just to "catch up"

[astral root]

if nothing else pushing to 1710 makes it so that you're ready to farm solo kaz when it comes out

and maybe serca nm depending on how hard the gatekeeping is

[azure isle]

but that comes with a massive drawback

of me losing my privilege

[supple shoal]

i dont enjoy 1640

tbh

thae exhi behe

[astral root]

i mean at some point really

[azure isle]

to each their own

[astral root]

i don't think using gold on something with a smaller roster is worth it

[weary oyster]

What would be better in my situation as a Valkyrie support player: spending around 200k gold to level up the Ark Pass, or investing that gold into the Ark Grid instead? Considering that my Ark Grid isn’t complete yet—I currently only have the three main colors and no additional ones, since I haven’t rolled the Astrogems yet.

[astral root]

especially if the idea is that you're taking on another set of 3 raids with that character to add more playtime overall

[azure isle]

thats what i want

to play more

[strange viper]

just slowly free tap alts from 1640 to 1660 and beyond from paradise and if you want 1680 or 1700 you wait for next pass/event.

[astral root]

then KTing doesn't make sense imo

[azure isle]

i dont want to play the story

[astral root]

but i've already beaten this point to death

[supple shoal]

yeah thats what im doing

im waiting for event

but ill make entirerly new char

and pp+event on it

i alr decided on the class soooo im excited for it

[astral root]

I recommend asking this in valk channel + sending your bible page

[strange viper]

Ive got so many characters i just use pp and events on my existing ones to give them a small boost.. last time i used it on artillerist and before that on my summoner.

But thats mostly cos I didnt like the new class

[astral root]

but generally the answer will be ark grid

unless you're missing 21 all on karma or something like that

[supple shoal]

i havent bought slots soo rn im sitting on 1700 1651gs 1653 arcana and 1540artillerist 1520 pally and destroyer

will delete destroyer for slayer

and pally for SH probably

[astral root]

fix your karma

you should be lv21 on all three of those at minimum

esp if you're in the 1700 range

if you're still getting into raids you may just want to wait for paradise free taps

(and the cores you'd have to activate would have to be support related anyways)

[astral root]

you want to juice enlightment asap to rank5/6

depending on if rank 6 gets you another point in a side node

support can techincally go evo 2nd but I like the extra gauge gen from rank 6 leap

(also continue to work on any enlightment potions you are missing)

if you still get into act4s somewhat consisently I would just hold for pardise

[weary oyster]

thank you my friend

[astral root]

ideally you get 21 enlightment (at rank5/6 depending on what you need) > 21 leap (lv6) > 21 evo (lv6)

you can techincally hold at that and just wait for free taps to get to 25 on all

NAW raids are weird because sometimes you have to compete with a million supports

but other days all I see are LF>supp lobbies

at least at the 1700-1710 raid range (minus mordum HM because i swear that raid is 1720 only unless ppl are itching for mokokos and you are one)

your mileage may vary and all that

[weary oyster]

its is normal here, the DPS rush when the day of refresh in another days their use the alt accounts to famr golds

[astral root]

the problem with how your karma is set up right now as a lead i'd deny you

others may feel differently but that's why I said YMMV

get solo mode shop bottles if you still need

[weary oyster]

Yes that its happening, now the players check the combat power

[astral root]

i'd actually deny you less based off that and more so based on how your karma is just straight up weird

[weary oyster]

hum, its true

[astral root]

like the weird ordering because you split it in a weird way

and it's not lv21 all

up to you on how you want to slice it

if you want to spend gold or just wait

[weary oyster]

I was thinking about that. I’ll need to spend my gold anyway, but I’d like to be more efficient with it and use it on something that helps me avoid more denials. Because when the new chapter arrives, I guess Act 4 will be the minimum for try-hard players, and it’s possible that more players will try to play this act itself.

[astral root]

i personally think 1710 is the new "good spot" to be at for most alts

but that comes with the caveat that you have things like karma done + working on ark grid ish

I don't even think act4 is honestly all that tryhard it's just people don't want to play with perceived "bad" support players
