But since this shit is diabolically RNG gated and time gated he should focus resources somewhere else

rich verge
#

Waste of gold considering the mountain of priorities imo

#

Basically what u said aswell

#

If those cores were activated thats no cap 1000cp probably

rose jewel
#

Karma was first, he finally got enlight 6, now leap, that's another like week of gold

#

But it's needed

#

But well, new player, the struggle is obvious

rich verge
#

The last express was also MUCH better than this one tbh

rose jewel
#

Won't be getting everything in a week, it's an MMO

rich verge
#

Atleast in terms of helping your 1 character

rose jewel
#

For honing, he already honed

#

He lacks everything else now

#

Imagine if we still had elixirs+trans

rich verge
#

Karma is functionally the same as elixir

#

I.e. u ain't getting into a group without it

rose jewel
#

But it's braindead easy compared to, and it has pity

#

Compared to the trashcan that elixir system was

rich verge
#

Real and true it was hateful

#

Their faces and stupid voicelines still haunt me

livid fossil
#

Dex a okay stat line on braclet with one main stat

rich verge
#

Yes

livid fossil
#

With it

rich verge
#

Dex + 1 stat is more than fine to cut

rose jewel
#

If it's a roll then fish for better stuff, if it's an og stat it's good, it's a small dmg line

livid fossil
#

Ah okay

#

I trashed most braclet cause they didn’t even have spec on them saving silver

mellow mauve
livid fossil
#

It wasn’t better than my og braclet lowered cp lol

rose jewel
#

They have to have one combat stat (spec or crit or swift whatever your class uses) to even be roll targets

#

Dex/int/str is just a nice extra

amber grove
#

what order do I prioritize my engravings?

rose jewel
#

You don't for now

#

Shit costs a lot and that gold is best used everywhere else you need rn

tender flicker
#

Selector wise, realistically what is most expensive and/or shared by the most of your dps. Buying wise...probably not for a while since theyre expensive unless you have multiple cursed doll enjoyers maybe.

amber grove
rose jewel
#

2 don't do jack

#

Engraves are increments of 5 for any small effect to even kick in

mellow mauve
#

You wanna save the selects for the more expensive option of your build

neon rivet
thorn lance
#

Is there any doc or site with info about minimum CP for each raid? I would love to check this 😄

mellow mauve
#

there is not

true folio
#

I wanted to sell about a million gold, and the maximum is only 22k gold why ?

mellow mauve
true folio
#

1 line free.

mellow mauve
#

yes

#

what is the line on the acc

#

the price is capped based on the lines on the acc

true folio
#

2/3

mellow mauve
#

...

#

mouse over the accessories and take a sceenshot. or type out what the actual lines are on the accessories

tender flicker
#

is...that a flat or % wep line?

mellow mauve
#

why did you cut off the other line

tender flicker
true folio
mellow mauve
#

yeah, that's not worth a million gold

shadow pasture
true folio
#

huh...

mellow mauve
tender flicker
#

The odds of someone cutting %wep on the last line, and they have to pay the pheons

mellow mauve
#

H% with cut left are worth more with 2 cuts left than 1 cut left

#

If you have hit H % Atk first, at best it would be 70k or w/e EU price is

tender flicker
#

Flat lines are a bonus, they don't make an accessory

rose jewel
#

smilemk not even close

bold geyser
#

(happens a lot more than hitting a good acc, for sure)

bold geyser
tender flicker
bold geyser
#

so chances are not great

tender flicker
#

Yeah, not great. Some people with big rosters will cut accessories on non-gold earners to try and convert their character bound gold as an option.

molten grove
neon rivet
#

Why is there 2 styles on express pass settings? Can i use the other gears after the event ends?

shadow pasture
#

yeah

#

the 2 styles are just there to help you get started

neon rivet
#

If i where to change it after idk 1710 il i would be behind? i'm at the brelshaza boss

rose jewel
#

The most important thing about that is that it gives you a permanent 2/2 stone, so switching once back and forth is good, even if just to get the stone and you're not interested for now on switching the play style

#

And no, but depends on your ark grid 100%

rose wren
#

battlestyle? select both, gain the items and choose 1 to play with that u like

minor grail
#

what is aura in support?

tender flicker
#

Ark grid you work on 1700+, its going to be different between the builds

rose jewel
#

What support, paladin?

tender flicker
#

Other stuff is largely interchangeable, except maybe stats on bracelet

minor grail
#

valk

neon rivet
#

stil decidind betwenn hellfire and dragonroar

rose jewel
#

Uh?

tender flicker
#

Try them both out to get a feel for them, they play fairly differently

rose jewel
#

Valk doesn't have the campfire paladin does

#

May you give like, some more context

minor grail
#

why ppl kicked bec he called 1% aura

tender flicker
#

Hellfire is hitmaster (hit from any direction), meter build/transform. Primary downside people say is that there is a bit of delay on some abilities hitting.

rose jewel
#

Oh, probably identity time

rich verge
#

that means he was afk

rose jewel
#

So

#

Do you know the basics of playing support? Like what you have to do overall and roughly, real talk

tender flicker
#

Dreadroar is head attacking and tanky, stand and hit the boss and get hit back with shielding when you can afford to tank the hit. Swift so it'll naturally feel a bit faster. Some people don't necessarily like chasing a boss' head or back since they can move around and rotate. You'll feel this more so in actual group raids as opposed to solo.

neon rivet
rose jewel
#

Hmm

rose jewel
rose wren
sinful compass
#

is this an actual number representing how many people have doen voldis overall?

shadow pasture
#

nah

sinful compass
#

just curious

lavish mortar
rose jewel
#

Yes

no

sinful compass
shadow pasture
#

that would be depressing if only 7k ppl done voldis

rose jewel
#

Call the bots

sinful compass
rose jewel
#

It is not tho

shadow pasture
#

concurrent ye

#

player count no

rose jewel
#

I mean if we trust the numbers literally under this ch, we've been at 10~13k or something daily on this serca raid

the real question is

#

who is that half a person

rose jewel
#

Me, I'm half dead inside

minor igloo
rose jewel
#

Will the game revive tho

minor igloo
minor grail
minor grail
#

shield them and z when i have it

lavish mortar
minor grail
#

gathering gauge with my 2 skills

minor grail
rose jewel
#

I guess that's the issue

minor grail
#

but the buff is 12 sec

rose jewel
#

Yes that is the most basic explanation ever, but

lavish mortar
#

Cuz i got 70% uptime in serca last week

minor igloo
#

Open up your combat analyzer and you should see some kind of buff efficiency value

tender flicker
#

The in game meter had a measure for that. Supports will often use awakening for meter generation if they don’t need to save it for a specific mech.

lavish mortar
#

So 1% is... impressive

rose jewel
#

Do you cast your buffs and overlap, or respect the time on each (your 2 basic buffs on qwerasdf)

minor grail
#

yea its was 30 sec fight xD

#

he kickeed me right away

lavish mortar
minor grail
lavish mortar
#

Or at least awakening at start

rose jewel
#

That's baaaaaaad

minor grail
#

i use stimu at start

lavish mortar
rose jewel
#

Like very bad

minor grail
#

what do u mean

#

its 8 sec buff right?

rose jewel
#

Let's assume you have buffs on Q and W

minor igloo
#

Do you press the second buff after the first buff is about to expire

minor igloo
#

Or do you just send them both together

minor grail
minor igloo
#

Ye overlap means you're pressing both together

rose jewel
#

You have to cast A and wait for it to basically expire and then you cast W

#

Yeah but of misunderstanding here

#

Ok so I'm actually intrigued by that 1%er, what was the fight

minor igloo
#

So most likely what's happening is that you entered the fight with zero z gauge. And then didn't build fast enough, and the raid wiped 30s in

rose jewel
#

Do you have any video evidence

minor igloo
rose jewel
#

Do you use the bible

minor grail
rose jewel
#

What fight

minor igloo
rose jewel
#

What were you doing

#

Was it a guardian raid, a kazeros raid, what was it

minor grail
#

serca

rose jewel
#

I assume normal mode

minor grail
#

i will give u the link last raid

#

i just cleared it with another party

minor grail
lavish mortar
#

If you stimmed before fight you can have like 48-60s of perma identity at start

#

Then itll drop off

rose jewel
#

Idk about 60

#

But it's a high %

lavish mortar
#

60 if you pop a second stim

#

48 otherwise

rose jewel
#

I don't use stim in normal mode fuck that

lavish mortar
#

Ye

#

Same xD

rose jewel
#

I even forget to use it in hm unless it's a panic emergency button

#

But in normie mode nah

lavish mortar
rose jewel
#

Maybe rumble but even then

lavish mortar
#

To make sure z is up for the big dps windows there

rose jewel
#

I tend to check stagger bar (not always but it was common week 1, I was locked in)

lavish mortar
rose jewel
#

Week 2 I just brain farted like 10 times on simple stuff

lavish mortar
#

Squirderp me frfr

rose jewel
#

The second clear tho was a clean one shot, so it was only practice needed / remembering what to do

#

(both HM)

#

Nm was a clown fiesta, same static, new mistakes, everyone screaming, fun stuff

#

"Nm is free" they said

minor grail
#

how to link u the raid?

rose jewel
#

Just send a screenshot of your details / uptime

minor grail
minor grail
rose jewel
#

Bible, in-game is kinda yucky

#

Just be sure to censor the dpses names

Or disable them

are they worth until 1730 and if so is juice > materials

lavish mortar
minor grail
lavish mortar
#

Make sure you have enough saved to full transfer asap tho imo

#

People may gatekeep on that

azure isle
#

im not even full +40

#

serca gear isnt in my concern list

lavish mortar
#

Honing is ALWAYS the solution

azure isle
#

i need to push valk to 1710 before gk goes 1730

lavish mortar
#

I usually pick support mats though

#

Cuz other mats are easier to get imo

azure isle
#

right

candid lake
#

i think on avg, sup mats are more worth if it's actually 50:50

azure isle
#

also gear transfer gatekeep doesnt worry me since i got a full party

lavish mortar
#

Friend are the real whale shit

rich verge
#

Keep talking like that and you might not, need to pull your own weight bucko

thats crazy

golden arch
#

tier 3 relic braclets and accessories are trash right?

balmy plank
#

Yes

#

Tier 3 anything is kind of trash in general

golden arch
#

are tier 3 stones still sellable to just dismantle all tier 3 things

bold geyser
#

they're just as good at t4 stones, really, but they added a bunch of ways to get specific stones you need so the market for them cratered

golden arch
#

if I have a 9/7 or 8/7 tier 3 stone cut, do I just keep it?

bold geyser
#

you can upgrade stones you've cut to t4

#

just going to add hp/cp

golden arch
#

oh I can upgrade, didn't know

#

but t3 braclets are a different set of effects from t4, so those are worthless?

bold geyser
wise juniper
#

Are there Hard Mode specific titles/achievements for Serca?

molten grove
#

2 many zdpsers without ark grid done trying to do it at 1800cp jailing people coz cant pull 200m dps tho. Even worse in hm, pulling like 280-320m

wise juniper
# molten grove Doloris or 10x nm clear only

So besides the trophy you can display in your stronghold, there is no title/achievement you can show to show that you cleared hard mode?(obviously nightmare title is different I'm just asking specific to hard mode).

molten grove
wise juniper
#

bow Ok

tender flicker
#

If its on the hm character, people can look at how many pieces you've transferred in the first few weeks I guess

molten grove
tender flicker
#

Yeah, kinda scuffed there

distant escarp
#

what's the best and cheapest way to make 1640 character rn being f2p?

rose jewel
#

the only way that has always been there, do everything manually

#

do dailies, weeklies, buy solo shop

#

there is no new crazy strat

distant escarp
#

any clue how much gold Iwould have to spend to get in 1640 in 1 week?

rose jewel
#

or, if you wanna do it very slowly, wait for a powerpass

#

no, depends on the current prices of stuff, in which case maxroll hone calc should help

distant escarp
#

my thinking is lets say I spend 1m rn to get 1640 then I can start stock piling t4 mats so when pow3erpass actually comes can save money in long run (hoping to push 1740 ish with powerpass

rose jewel
#

1m is not even close

#

and you dont even have that gold lets be honest

lavish mortar
distant escarp
#

oh to reach 1640 I just have to get 1620 right?

rose jewel
#

nvm, main to 1740

#

yes

#

its like what

#

200k at worse? due to leaps

#

maybe 300 if theyre stupid expensive again

#

but thats a lot of gold for not a lot of fast returns

#

so youre playing the very long game

#

even worse if you want them at a relevant ilv

distant escarp
distant escarp
rose jewel
#

bitch im at 2000 gold

#

youre a trillionare to me

distant escarp
#

just get good UwU

rose jewel
#

raise as many alts as you like then, you got the funds

distant escarp
rose jewel
#

total gold investment if youre buying mats from market

distant escarp
rose jewel
#

unless you have a lot of leap chest boxes

distant escarp
rose jewel
#

i mean im talking about 1585 to 1640 only

#

only god knows how much to 1740

#

or you know

#

ask maxroll

#

"only"

#

but yes

#

probably

#

no idea use the calc

#

im just guesstimating

#

i have no idea how much are leaps today, they were 200 like a month ago

#

then 140

#

then 170

#

then 90

pure basin
#

is this worth?

distant escarp
lavish mortar
lavish mortar
distant escarp
lavish mortar
#

+12 iirc

#

So 13 through 19

bold geyser
#

^

rose jewel
#

13 to 19 and manually add leap prices

candid lake
#

why does it show for them it costing gold

rose jewel
#

unless, yet again, you have a stock of boxes

candid lake
#

OH

lavish mortar
#

Bozo

candid lake
#

uncheck express @distant escarp

rose jewel
#

we have no idea how your account is looking

candid lake
rose jewel
#

so your questions are like, pure guesses

candid lake
lavish mortar
#

Or express issue maybe

candid lake
#

it's because they ticked express

#

xD

lavish mortar
#

Maxroll suck confirm!

candid lake
#

im going to yoink your dog

#

😠

distant escarp
candid lake
#

wym?

#

that's fine

bold geyser
#

still need 19

lavish mortar
bold geyser
#

but bugged how?

candid lake
#

or i mean that's normal

lavish mortar
candid lake
distant escarp
#

now showing gold and the shard it was showing 1.7m and without express it's showing 600k?

candid lake
#

they nerfed the mats required

#

to go through t3

rose jewel
#

because it doesnt cost gold to tap anymore?

bold geyser
#

you had it going from 1->19

candid lake
#

but express for t3 is gone because power pass brings you to 1640

rose jewel
#

my gold estimations were from BUYING MATS FROM MARKET

bold geyser
#

quite a longer journey

candid lake
#

they just havent updated it

rose jewel
#

anyway idk how to use that so all yours

#

gotta go buy groceries

candid lake
#

but yes

#

unchecking express is correct

bold geyser
#

that said, you should still set it to "optimal materials" and still fill out the values for the market costs of the materials above

distant escarp
candid lake
#

the

#

express button is outdated

#

for t3

#

just completely ignore it for t3

distant escarp
#

ah

lavish mortar
bold geyser
#

i dunno what to tell you, its not worth worrying about if you're not using an express

candid lake
#

they nerfed the values for it

distant escarp
#

so now it doesn't take gold to reach 1620?

candid lake
#

yes

distant escarp
#

I c

candid lake
#

but put it back on if your char is an express char for t4

distant escarp
#

so if I have boxes it should be quite free tho right?

bold geyser
#

if you have enough

distant escarp
bold geyser
#

if you have enough of a material to completely carry the whole way through you can keep the material cost at 0 ablve

rose jewel
#

ima go cry as well while at it brb

bold geyser
#

but using "optimal" and filling out book/juice prices will help you get there more efficiently IF you dont have enough and if they're cheap enough

distant escarp
#

yh so doing this is 100% worth then right? I spend lets say whatever 500k for example and probably can make back mroe gold in bounds mats just by buying out solo shop

bold geyser
#

matters more for AH

#

100% worth compared to what

lavish mortar
bold geyser
#

oh, yeah, just send it if you can

distant escarp
#

compared to a new character with the upcoming hyper which is in june

rose jewel
#

he has 4.5m gold btw

bold geyser
#

yo lemme get some gold

candid lake
candid lake
#

the

lavish mortar
#

I need gold

#

My services will be 100k

bold geyser
#

using pps on new chars is totally fine

#

taking a late-T3 char into T4 is completely doable, especially if you have resources

#

dont need to second guess things like that unless you're participating in some high foolishness

candid lake
#

just be warned tho

#

some chars feel like shit until t4 deadge

livid fossil
#

I only have 6 m

distant escarp
#

I wont be even playing it

livid fossil
bold geyser
#

zerk felt fine until t4 MokokoDead

lavish mortar
distant escarp
#

just get it to t4 then just stack mats till hyper

lavish mortar
distant escarp
#

and hoping to get to 1740 ish then actually test the character xD

lavish mortar
#

And sllo raids imo

livid fossil
#

Making a fresh and not playing it lol

candid lake
distant escarp
#

in long run it will just be abidos and shards what matters

lavish mortar
#

If doing 1740 is what it takes to test a char for you

#

Wtf bro

#

Fund me instead

bold geyser
distant escarp
#

my main is not even 1740 rn cuz I just gave up on the game

livid fossil
#

1740 test a character out

distant escarp

don't enjoy my roster anymore

so just wanna go all in on a new one

This is why I perma chase fun and tilting people with my rng

Hey I quit on ark grid release, 1700 ilvl. Wanted to know about the state of the game today in short. Is there any activities that prolong main character play time nowadays? A yes or no answer is enough tbh.

shy chasm
#

i mean its still the regular grind but now theres serca and youve still got kazaros to do so more raids that give cores but other than that its still kinda the same cycle

#

and a few qol changes for guardians/solo shop additions/ relic core selectors

#

so ye

#

and idk if you were there but chaos doesnt drop gems anymore its from guardians

vast oriole
#

Is there any activities that prolong main character play time nowadays?

not really

rose wren
#

always been monster grinding

rich verge
#

Id love more activities on my main tbh

just have 6 mains

should be yea

Thank you guys

pure basin
#

which one, is selection even good if i have 17+ on all my cores?

balmy plank
#

Selection is less but selectable
Random is more but random
Elysian tickets if you dont want cores

#

The astrogem chest will both barely give anything regardless

pure basin
#

so what is the lesser of the evil here

balmy plank
#

Well do you want astrogems?

#

If yes, selector

pure basin
#

tyty

balmy plank
#

It's something like 2 vs 4 cores and they'll all brick anyway so at least you can brick good potential ones

pure basin
#

yeah i feel like it'll be a brick or not as good as the ones i already have lo

pure basin
#

i ended up choosing the selectors maybe i can fuse them and transfer to my alts

elfin nymph
#

should i use the hyper awakening skill or just normal one?

spring spruce
# elfin nymph should i use the hyper awakening skill or just normal one?

yes, in a raid/dungeon you will always have access to the normal awakening as long as you don't use all your chances on it and hyper awakening will start charging, hyper awakening can only be used once per pull. So it depends on the situation you are going to be in when hyper is charged and if its needed for the extra damage/invulnerability

balmy plank
#

Depends a little bit on the fight. If you have time for 2 awakenings you can use your regular one very early in the fight and hyper later. Some raids benefit by using your hyper during a specific mech and you might want to wait until then

elfin nymph
#

okay

#

should i be buying the extra reward in raids

Probably not

recently got back into lost ark, now my gear is all 18/19 but trying to hone it feels impossible? they have 3% odds to rank up. Are there any ways I can increase these odds?
or am I really going to have to rely on artisan energy?

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

sudden adder
#

so you are saying I am not using the correct materials that I should be using for my honing?

minor briar
#

returning player guide vid should be good

minor briar
#

honing is honing

#

the raids give raid specific mats

#

that r used for other dmg gaining systsems

can u craft this?

if you have a huge flux of gold as a returning player, what would be good things to invest in/on?

rich verge
#

trust me when i say you do not have a "huge flux" of gold, keep that shit cus you WILL need it later

sudden adder
#

so there is nothing I could buy or invest in that would help me in general?

rich verge
#

what ilevel is your main ?

sudden adder
#

1681

#

I doubt its just saving for honing and thats it right?

rich verge
#

gold is a limited resource so yeah generally i would recommend hoarding that as much as possible because the second you try and hone up you'll find this flux of gold vanishes in a heartbeat

#

i would get your main to 1730 before you even think about "investing"

#

and extra gold that you dont care about can be used to supplement that honing if needed

errant pendant
#

Ark passive and jewelry @sudden adder

sudden adder
#

got a near 7 digit donation from a whale friend whos quitting, so hoped I could use it for more than hoarding and honing.
Was thinking of other qol upgrades or character upgrades or what not

rich verge
#

a fat mil doesnt go as far as you'd think honestly

sudden adder
#

crazy lol

rich verge
#

once you hit 1700 you unlock ark grid and that will eat a fair chunk of your gold too

sudden adder
#

yeah but id like to at least hit 1700, and the 3% success chance honing doesnt seem to help that

rich verge
#

buy some books :p

sudden adder
#

and I dont want to see my gold go poof from spam clicking a 3% chance

#

oh you can buy the books?

#

is that gold efficient tho?

#

im at 1681 gearscore, and all gear is 18+

#

so idk whats best to do for honing atp

rich verge
#

i would do advanced honing then cause thats still at like +10 then

#

weapon in particular to +30/+40 gives a lot of damage

#

whats your character name

sudden adder
#

Joodseo

#

wildsoul

#

I returned 4 days ago, so im completely lost with all the new systems and what not

rich verge

click "advanced honing" at the honer

#

and go to +20 immediately

#

youre 1700 for quite cheap

sudden adder
#

oh damn, ill most defo look at it when im home tyvm

#

(currently at work in the office doing research lol)

rich verge
#

you will see that you can use "scrolls" and breaths (juices) to make this go faster, i would use them only on full pity which youll see it fills up at the top right

#

if u have no scrolls those are definitely worth buying now, they're available from solo shop too

sudden adder
#

I will look into it once I get home, thanks a lot

rich verge
#

and at 1700 you can buy 5x level 7s and this ark grid supply chest

#

and congratulations youre now semi broke

sudden adder
#

lmao, I will look into it and let you know how it went

#

tyvm

#

I think I already have an arg grid chest or an island chest or whatever its called, but didnt open it yet as I have no clue what to do with it

wise juniper
#

Why is that on the auction house(NA at least I know for sure), the new tier 4.5 honing materials are going at rates above 5 times the 4.0 mats?

For example: Old red stone is 500 gold but new red stone is 3400 gold. But if you just buy tradeable old reds instead of tradable new reds you would effectively pay 2500 gold for the new reds instead.

What am I missing here? Are people literally that rich/too lazy to exchange at the NPC? Or are there some other systems/restrictions in play I'm not understanding?

gray verge
#

exchanged items are bound

#

unbound red crystals are still extraordinarily rare so they sell for slightly more

wise juniper
#

Exchanged items are bound once you do it. But if you just buy however many old red stones they're still tradable until you do it. And you can choose to convert(make them bound) to 4.5 any time you want.

#

It still doesn't make sense to me.

rich verge
#

because the guy is sitting in honing menu with market and mail and cba walking to the poor people converter

wise juniper
#

That seems crazy to me but does make sense.

#

Paying 40% more to avoid the poor people converter lol.

rich verge
#

flexing on peasants was never an efficiency game

wise juniper
#

lmao

limpid moth
wise juniper
#

I don't do this at all from either ends but why is it 12k?

limpid moth
#

"trash skins" have a value for their 7x cloth you can get from dismanteling them and rolling yoz jar for a chance for the legendary skins, current is around 12k-15k

#

so whatever you see there posted will 100% sell at 5k or 100% at 12k a bit later

wise juniper
#

Oh I see.

limpid moth
#

so the person posting the skin just gets -7k gold because lazy

wise juniper
#

Lazy or unaware I guess.

#

Now that you mention it I did know the cloth thing. But it's been so long I forgot about it.

#

The 4.5 mats thing is some combination of lazy/super rich/unaware I'd imagine then.

pure basin
#

do ppl trade lvl 10 cd gem for lvl 10 dmg gem nowadays?

wise juniper
#

For 1730 or higher characters(base T4 honing level 20 or more + advanced honing 40 done), are there ever cases where continuing to hone in T4.0 with the old character bound mats(such as red stone and free taps) makes sense? Or should you always transfer gear into T4.5, convert all your mats at 5:1 ratio, and just hone in T4.5 instead?

rich verge
#

after +20 your honing costs are kinda obscene so its probs never worth but thats just my feely

#

transferring also gets your honing chances back up to reasonable percentages

wise juniper
#

That's my feeling too. But I'm not sure I understand all the systems fully and I've not done the math. So wondering there is some conventional wisdom on this.

they are very good if you want level 7 gems. I am being hyperbolic here. its just that its an investment RIGHT NOW instead of for the future of your character if you ever want to upgrade those

dim pulsar

basically it is POWER NOW, but u will need tradable ones if u want lvl8s

just buy like few lvl7 from solo shop and fill rest w tradable lvl7 for now

thats what i did

G2 x240 for stagger. During Rumble for a little extra damage

open parrot
#

or during stagger in general?

#

i see tyty

balmy plank

Its basically a whirlwind grenade with more damage so anytime you need stagger or damage really. You can use them in any raid & guardians too

bold geyser
#

it's the nature of high apm classes

rich verge
rose jewel
#

It's easy to mash buttons, it's hard because she's squishy, you gotta move to the boss's ass but she got the movement to do so, and it's 2 skills that moves to a lot, her x and another one that moves thru bosses

#

And that shit as well, you wanna squish the most reds possible in that buff window (biggest dmg skills)

rich verge
#

Technically Z moves u through boss also if u aim it badly

bold geyser
#

which involves planning while otherwise spamming to make sure your positioning and cds line up with burst

rose jewel
#

Too much movement for some

rich verge

The x is only for repositioning and counter tho

If that's your jam go for it

normal pulsar

@neon rivet yh but you only have some spell etc you cant have the same spec

rose jewel
#

Yes reaper is butt sniffer and she can easily reposition to do so, so you can practice, but being solo means the boss will always target you and only you

neon rivet
#

also i would not pick a classe based on meta since it can pretty much change

rose jewel

Meaning it will be more annoying than rewarding

this should be fine, otherwise i can update it rq

Is it true that Serca nightmare yields a higher chance of dropping ancient cores?

Two questions regarding the upcoming 4-man raid:

  1. I know the mechs are very easy overall. But is the DPS check hard(in particular nightmware)? Is there rumble/brawl to help with damage? Is there a first week/frontier like title as far as we know?

  2. How long does it take to get enough buy the ancient core boxes? I see pictures that it needs 400 of the new currency from that dungeon, how many do you get a week in each mode?

But i think its better to just ask memo those questions

30 minutes

#

lol

vast oriole
#

Yeah

#

Actual 30mins

rose jewel
#

and that was hm or nmr

vast oriole
#

Nmr

#

It was the thirs difficulty

#

Also its only 1750 ilvl

#

So very very easy to hone

sudden adder
#

just hit 1700, what do I choose from the reward chests for the wildsoul?

rose jewel
#

nothing yet for most classes

vast oriole
#

Pba or fera?

rose jewel
#

you want to wait until you have your important cores, if you pick one rn you will end up with a dupe later and you will hate yourself

#

either via drops or pity

tender flicker
#

Hold. Cores them selves don't do anything without the cut astrogems to activate them. In the meanwhile, raiding will also give you a chance to hit cores so you don't end up with dupes.

#

But for specific builds, you'll generally have a priority core or minumum to make a build work

sudden adder
#

and what the astrogem chests? also just keep or?

tender flicker
#

Astrogem selectors? Randoms are just rng. Selectors, you probably want to prioritize stability and corrosion early since they're easiest to make a usable astrogem with.

sudden adder
#

oh most are rng, but its saying I first need to select a core

#

before I can use them

tender flicker
#

You need to get a core one way or another to get access to ark grid

#

whether its through a selector or doing act 4

sudden adder
#

I have a selection chest

#

1 leggy and one relic

tender flicker
#

uh

#

what arna said, pba or ferality?

#

But also, some people may delay opening selectors for efficiency purposes

sudden adder
#

im playing ferality

rose jewel
#

go do act4 and you will get a core

tender flicker
#

Since it takes a long time at 1700 to build a pity core

rose jewel
#

honestly save everything for now

#

yes ark grid is a huge thing but you aint advancing much, if at all, at this moment

vast oriole
#

Well fera i would def wait

tender flicker
#

shruge Uh...The next question is if ferality enjoyers are hyped for the KR bear build

vast oriole
#

Even more because kr got changes 2 days ago about ferality builds

sudden adder
#

I like the idea of the bear build, but idk when it will come so im not thinking about it yet

tender flicker
#

Because I don't think the bear build is good or maybe even viable atm

rose jewel
#

1 to 3 months if we're lucky

vast oriole
#

2-3 months prob

sudden adder
#

yeah figured

#

so how do I get a core then without using my chests?

rose jewel
#

in all those months you aint making significant progress anyway

tender flicker
#

Would be good to figure out if there are any overlapping cores

rose jewel
#

not being new needing to spend everywhere else

#

and i just told you deadge

sudden adder
#

ah act 4
