tripods are these

rose wren
#

press k and u see the middle section, thats what we are on about

rose jewel
#

the things on the right

untold gulch
#

Okay so actually I have a question about that.

rose jewel
#

you can freely move, add and remove them

azure isle
#

i think 0-50 is better to experience blindly than getting overwhelmed with guidance

untold gulch
#

So what am I missing that your SS shows no skill above 14 and yet you've got that third thing unlocked. Doesnt that say you need 20 pts to get to?

vast oriole
#

with levels, and potions

#

that will be way later

untold gulch
#

Sorry 48 actually

rose jewel
#

14 is the max for combat lv70, you'll take a good while to get there

vast oriole
rose jewel
#

just focus on one hard hitting skill as you get more skill points

#

vairgris roster idgaf its full of supports

untold gulch
#

But right now the Skill Tree changes for each skill I select it seems. And it says I need 48 points in that skill to reach the end of the tree. Buts thats not possible.

rose jewel
#

you think im gonna do that? fuk no

untold gulch
#

Does it track more than one skills points together?

#

Or is it from Gear giving you +skills?

rose jewel
#

combat level and potions

#

you will get more and more as you level up

#

dont worry about anything right now, youre just starting

azure isle
#

if youre 0-50 just press recommended button

vast oriole
#

i just wrote it

#

im getting ignored

untold gulch
#

Yes but look at your first move the one selected in your SS. You have Normal Paint: Ink Well selected and you have it at level 10

rose jewel
#

you can also, as i just said, move them around freely, its not a permanent choice

vast oriole
#

;__;

untold gulch
#

How does it show the Carp King unlocked for that ability

#

Shouldn't you be 38 levels short?

vast oriole
#

thats not how it works

rose jewel
#

at lv4, 7 and 10 you can add a row of tripod

untold gulch
#

YEAH I KNOW THATS NOW HOW IT WORKS LOL

#

I'm trying to figure out how it DOES work

vast oriole
rose jewel
#

the "max" for tripod unlocking is just 10, anything above (14 max) is just for more dmg

#

the points go up each time you level a skill

#

well, the points needed

#

etc

#

thats why i said to focus on one, up to lv10 first, so you can nuke bosses

untold gulch
#

So the skill level is not linear with the points spent

#

It has been so far because I'm like level nothing.

rose jewel
#

you later need 8 then 12 skill points for a lv up

#

but each skill has its level and requirement

untold gulch
#

Okay. That feels slightly more complicated than it needs to be but who am I to judge

rose jewel
#

nah just focus on one

#

its easy once you like, do it yourself

untold gulch
#

But I have been getting each to 4 and getting my first orb

rose jewel
#

it feels weird coz youre new

rose wren
#

could go through tutorial to learn the basics, if u wish

rose jewel
#

yeah you can do that, as long as you kill stuff fast

untold gulch
#

I went through the prologue thank you.

rose jewel
#

but some tripods later help you a lot sometimes

vast oriole
#

unlucky that maxroll doesnt have the progression leveling guide for classes anmore

#

it was nice

untold gulch
#

I could easily just play blindly and figure it out as I go but thats not really my style

rose wren
#

its more than prologue

rose jewel
#

like dealing a lot more damage to trash monsters or increasing the AoE, lowering cooldown etc

azure isle
rose jewel
#

what you can do is

untold gulch
#

I'm not struggling with this story mode content

rose jewel
#

check the "Chaos Dungeon" skill recommendation on lost ark nexus for your class and going for what may be better for trash clearing

#

thats mostly for your wife

#

coz a support going supporting skills will be rough

#

instead just go full ungabunga and she will kill stuff much faster

#

supports in the farming dungeon have most of the time faster times than a dps

untold gulch
#

Okay that feels like a solid takeaway. Thanks gang and a special thanks to you Sig.

rose jewel
#

i say farming but its once a day Sadge

untold gulch
#

/salute

#

Time to play more mmo

rose jewel
#

check out lostark.nexus for class builds

#

check chaos dungeon for mobing skills and tripods

#

but the builds are mostly aimed for endgame

#

so you will see a lot of weird stuff that you will not have

untold gulch
#

Yeah my build is surge meta so I'll be just fine

rose jewel
#

so chaos dungeon will suffice for now

rose wren
rose jewel
#

surge is anything but meta mokokoSob

azure isle
#

idk ur class but bard page has skill codes your partner can use every time she hits an ilvl threshold

vast oriole
#

oh no, a bard and a db

#

gl

untold gulch
#

For Assasin its meta

azure isle
#

its not

vast oriole
#

its not

rose jewel
#

its actually Remaining Energy

untold gulch
#

ugh

vast oriole
#

surge is dogpoop right now

untold gulch
#

Okay fine

vast oriole
#

remaining energy is good

rose jewel
#

but

untold gulch
#

Fine

vast oriole
#

but again, you need to be good

rose jewel
#

at your level you dont even have the ability to pick the surge stuff

#

so dont worry

vast oriole
#

last time a new player was playing db, he crashed out and quit after 2 weeks

rose jewel
#

just enjoy the journey

untold gulch
#

Yeah I literally dont have anything.

rose jewel
#

going commando eh?

untold gulch
#

But my char haf ngl

#

:P

#

L8r

rose jewel
#

have fun

tender flicker
#

ngl you guys picked some of the harder classes to start with

rose jewel
#

yeah he like, couldnt beat valtan for a week

vast oriole
azure isle
#

DAMN

rose jewel
#

when he finally did he went for vykas, he just threw the towel

rose wren
#

o i missed that person

vast oriole
#

thats what it does when you follow tierlists

azure isle
#

was surge SSSSS tier

rose jewel
#

we even gave him free motivational speeches, teraphy and all that shit

azure isle
rose jewel
#

he just left, defeated

vast oriole
azure isle
#

i dont understand people that decide their fates based on dogshit takes presented in tierlists

vast oriole
#

but it was only ssssss tier if you could play it

rose wren
#

every mmorpg ive played, ive never used tier

rose jewel
#

thats why you suck

azure isle
#

only time i can remember where surge was miles better than RE was vykas release and even then you still had to have 6 fingers on each hand

tender flicker
#

Next month we'll get more power passes and expresses, you guys can feel free to try out other classes at that point if you want. This game tends to be a bit of a step up in difficulty compared to some others games due to the lack of tanks/aggro control in raids and how bosses just run around.

vast oriole
#

SURGE WAS BETTER THAN RE TILL T4 CAME OUT

#

oups

edgy valley
#

Yup

rose wren
#

chunky paw hit caps? lol

rose jewel
#

balances came, surge was suddenly not meta anymore and people crashed out, a lot left

azure isle
#

toxic db mains

rose jewel
#

and i laughed, a lot

azure isle
#

thats like leaving a discord server on april fools because owner pinged everyone

bold geyser
#

or shutting down a discord for a week because your class got nerfed 😬

rose wren
#

thats such a weird area people massively freakout when owner pings everyone, u join to get notified lol

Heyoo guys! ^^ i'm kinda new here, anyone know how can i get trusted title on account ?

spring spruce
#

?trusted

buoyant dockBOT
#

Amazon changed how trusted status is obtained, the old way is "You need steam trusted / non limited and enabling 2fa on steam guard app", it's now an in-house system not reliant on steam. All the info they have given us on how to get it is "Play the game and you get it eventually".
Amazon Games Trusted Info

tulip falcon
#

to be able to collect the rewards from the time i spend on the game

spring spruce
#

its right there, you get it eventually, just lucky

is there a way of getting accessories early in the mq? im at punika rn and the accessories i have are still the ones from north vern

what's minimum dps for serca g2 normal

fervent mauve

thank you long time

coral perch
#

what stone is bis for dps valk?

tender flicker
#

Try searching the valk channel. That question comes up in pretty much every class channel. Choose the role at the top of the channels list to see class channels.

azure isle
#

does LOA still have restricted Royal Crystal purchases?

#

or in other words how many times can I purchase 12k RCs in one day/week, if there is a restriction

rose jewel
#

The 3-day restrictions I think are lessened the better your account is in terms of trusted, as of the limit of purchases I don't think or at least I haven't heard they changed it, so it's like 5k a day or something? Or was it less

#

Maybe 1.5k idr (dollaroos)

azure isle
#

5k in irl money?

#

in what time span

rose jewel
#

A day

#

I'm no whale so I can't really verify anything, it's just what I heard years ago

azure isle
#

that implies there is no "3 purchases per day" hmm

rose jewel
#

No, it's just a specific amount of cash, or should be

azure isle
#

i see

rose jewel
#

Now top up 5k on my account to test it ty

rose jewel
#

Well I tried

livid fossil
#

For science you should give me 5k to test it out

#

Must verify

#

Chaos stones(have purple quality) destruction stones or shards

bold geyser
#

probably destro unless you're flush

#

chaos is good but always a longshot 😄

faint cedar
#

That is all

#

I don’t know what it is, I just know that there is a daily one

#

My assumption is that if you’re locked out for any longer than a day your accounts probably getting reviewed for fraud or something lol

tall wolf
#

hi, does anybody remember the video of a mokoko berserker with a watermelon weapon getting compared with slayer?

#

i cant find it. deadge

bold geyser
#

like compared playstyle between the two classes, or by hotness

tall wolf
#

playstyle

bold geyser
#

damn

tall wolf
#

it was when slayer was released and im sure the titel was korean.

bold geyser
#

was the audio?

lucid axle
#

is legendary pet abililites exclusive to legendary pets or can epic pets get them too

lucid axle
#

ah so thats why i havent seen them yet deadge

#

ty

bold geyser
#

i didn't get any paradise keys? came in the mail while i was in crucible Shruge

tender flicker
#

sometimes it takes like 15-20seconds after logging in shruge

bold geyser
#

was like 10 mins 😄

worthy oxide
#

if I join back with my friends in next power pass how long will it take us to unlock all raids on normal mode?

bold geyser
#

a month?

#

less if you have mats and gold saved

worthy oxide
#

I had 20k gold but I don't think that will help

rose wren
#

hardly

worthy oxide
bold geyser
#

it will, the same way $20 helps pay the rent 🙂

rose wren
#

u can start gathering until event to hone

candid lake
#

did our pp end already?

worthy oxide
#

is there and active event now? I don't want to start all over

vast oriole
#

finished last week

candid lake
#

daamn

worthy oxide
#

I quit around clown release so basically I'm starting all over right?

bold geyser
#

you can do story to catch up w/o needing to hone up til 1580

worthy oxide
#

how long will that take

bold geyser
#

the express will (assumedly) be 1640-?? and run through 1700+, the highest NM right now is 1710

bold geyser
worthy oxide
#

that's a lot i think it is better to wait till next month and come back

bold geyser
#

up to you 🙂

worthy oxide
#

one of our friends is busy with a new baby and don't have much time

#

is it true that normal mode raids are easy now?

bold geyser
#

i feel like they're easier than normal modes were for older raids

#

but as always ymmv 😄

rose wren
#

normal difficulty is always simpler

worthy oxide
#

i quit in late 2022

lavish mortar
#

But easier does not necessarily mean they're easy

worthy oxide
#

tnks folks

candid lake
#

i feel like the dps checks are like

#

low atm compared to before except serca

lavish mortar
#

Even serca (normal) isn't that high with like 14x3 grid

vast oriole
#

Its like express horizontal

candid lake
rose jewel
#

300mil total raid dmg

candid lake
#

😠

#

back to my paper

worthy oxide
#

bold geyser
#

lavish mortar
bold geyser

lavish mortar
bold geyser
#

vast oriole
#

lavish mortar
bold geyser
#

yaya i know

vast oriole
#

people are happy when they get a 3k cp support lol in kaz

lavish mortar
#

People are unhappy with deadge supp tho
Which i think is his worry

vast oriole
#

just use ce

bold geyser
#

people were unhappy with me alive even with mvp

#

i'd like to figure out why my nums are low

vast oriole
#

iuse it because theres always one fucker that will kill me xD

vast oriole
#

time to install the meter

lavish mortar
bold geyser
#

ughhhhh

#

lags my shit but ill try one

lavish mortar
vast oriole
vast oriole
#

it doesnt lag mine or darek's pc

#

and we have old ass pc

bold geyser
#

operator issues

#

likely unrelated

vast oriole
#

did you test the newer one

#

or the older one

bold geyser
#

didn't know there was a newwer one

#

new version, or different thing altogether

vast oriole
#

new meter

#

well it snot new

#

but

#

if you have logs in the game

#

can check it i guess

bold geyser
#

will look into it

vast oriole
#

im a bit rusty on bard but im not completely lost

lavish mortar
#

Can send some ingame meter logs for now yeah

#

And work from that at least

vast oriole
#

would be interesting just to see in trixion if the rotation is fucked or not

#

or its just on bosses that moves

lavish mortar
#

Unfortunately hard to know why something like identity is low without seeing your skill cpms

vast oriole
#

also if hitmasters are being dumb and away from your circle

bold geyser
#

yeah of course

vast oriole
#

`like whats low

#

ap brand

#

identity

bold geyser
#

which are the analyzer fields to use as a baseline

vast oriole
bold geyser
#

brand eff, attack bonus eff?

vast oriole
#

damage bonus efficiency 1 is z
damage bonus efficiency 2 is T

bold geyser
#

will try a run with those then 🙂

lavish mortar
#

It should have at least a couple older logs saved i think?

#

Idk how often it clears them out

vast oriole
#

go do a guardian KEKW

bold geyser
#

i'm sure i do but only in-game meter

vast oriole
#

then link

bold geyser
#

uhhhh

vast oriole
#

FASTER

#

jk

bold geyser
vast oriole
#

i mean

#

its not that bad

bold geyser
vast oriole
#

you have meter neck or no?

#

you play womwom?

bold geyser
#

only mid

#

and no

vast oriole
#

well

#

im guessing thats why your z is meh

bold geyser
#

damn

#

i mean i can change things up

vast oriole
#

for info, thats my bard in guardians

#

and i have lvl 6 gems

lavish mortar
#

Basically have to go womwom for fat buffs BDead

bold geyser
#

but i imagine it comes at the cost of something else

lavish mortar
vast oriole
#

serca hm

lavish mortar
#

But in guards who cares

vast oriole
#

(yes my brand is criminal)

bold geyser
#

the nums are what?

vast oriole
#

ap brand z t

lavish mortar
#

Ap brand z t

vast oriole
#

in order

bold geyser
#

k

#

may as well make those my 4 tracked then

#

wait i cant nooooo

vast oriole
#

yes and do same order as external meter

#

you can

#

you can rearrange

bold geyser
#

assist damage seems locked?

vast oriole
#

yea

#

doesnt matter that number

bold geyser
#

if its locked i can only have 3 others 😄

vast oriole
#

t is whatever

lavish mortar
#

T is kinda random if its high, unless youre in comms with a burst class, and save it for them

vast oriole
candid lake
#

AHH

#

IM BLINDED

bold geyser
#

and if some rando is complaining about some number of uptime it's the ht/sv uptime i assume?

vast oriole
#

can be anything

#

ap brand or z

bold geyser
#

which was...shy of 90 in that pic?

lavish mortar
vast oriole
bold geyser
#

going back to solo raids soweary

lavish mortar
vast oriole
#

just install meter...

lavish mortar
vast oriole
#

meter ingame is dogshit to improve

bold geyser
#

alright alright

vast oriole
#

oh well

lavish mortar
bold geyser
vast oriole
vast oriole
lavish mortar
vast oriole
#

my accs on this rat are better than a lot of people

lavish mortar
vast oriole
#

i do guardians

#

and thats about it

vast oriole
#

you can use ht way before sv stops

#

can close the gap

#

you have lvl 8 right? and full swift?

lavish mortar
#

I think HT alone can push 80-85% uptime with good gems (8+)

vast oriole
#

yes

lavish mortar
#

Broken ass class Susge

bold geyser
#

probably just being too cute w/ sv

#

would loooove more customization on my ui

vast oriole
#

you can almost ignore sv as a full swift bard

#

since mana is from ht

#

cant do that on artist XD

#

i play some spec but yeah

bold geyser
#

(there isn't a way to move ui elements around, is there?)

vast oriole
#

no

bold geyser
#

so dumb

#

i would do 40% better if i could move my buff tracker

vast oriole
#

youc an always make them larger

#

and did you play with the priority

bold geyser
#

once upon a time

#

i'll look at it was just hoping fo ra miracle

vast oriole
#

use that

#

and this

#

should help

#

dont copy the rest, i dont play dps

bold geyser
#

those were set, at least 😄

#

and buffs are already as big as they can get, which is to say, itty bitty

#

messed with the other buff prios tho

#

i miss weakauras in wow i literally wrote over 100 of them my UI was so pretty

#

the things i could do if loa gave me just a little freedom 🥲

sacred zinc
#

I finished all the lvls for the Arkesia thing, but i do not see all the loot i was supposed to get, it always made me finish each lvl in my stronghold

rose wren
#

mail?

sacred zinc
#

nothin

rose wren
#

whats in ur chat windows? should show what happen

vast oriole
#

stupid question

#

did you claim it on the interface

sacred zinc
#

i claimed it in the Arkesia window the event was in

#

also, i claimed it the past few days, and didnt look into it thinkin it was in my mail and i would sort thru it another day

#

seeing as it always made me go to my stronghold, is there somethin in there that would have it

vast oriole
#

shouldnt be

#

it shouldve went to your inventory

#

or universal storage

rose wren
#

what r u missing?

sacred zinc
#

seemingly everything, i know lvl 4 gave gold ruins and i dont see those anywhere, like i had empty spots in my inven, and nothing got filled

rose jewel
#

screenshots, is what hes missing

sacred zinc
#

i dunno even what i would take a screenshot of at this point

bold geyser
#

and they dont already exist in your skills menu? codex?

sacred zinc
#

other than showing the arkesia event is no longer present in my UI

rose wren
#

mostly likely auto redeem on runes, press k

sacred zinc
#

i dont think ive ever had a gold ruin, and i dont have any equipped on my skills

#

purple is the highest ive had

rose jewel
#

gold what

sacred zinc
#

oh wait

bold geyser
#

dont have a list of what tour gives

sacred zinc
#

they are there

bold geyser
#

😮

sacred zinc
#

so they skipped my inven.........

lavish mortar
sacred zinc
#

ya runes

rose wren
#

some things do

sacred zinc
#

i have runes i havent done anything with in my storage still

bold geyser
#

consume them, no reason not to 🙂

rose jewel
#

they wouldnt be able to give everything in a single go, you dont have that much inv space, so some stuff has to be auto used

#

is my guess idk its been forever since i did it

rose wren
#

usually all the overflow goes to mail, seems they updated it somewhere

sacred zinc
#

for artillerist, is there a particular card set i should be going for, i have all of light of salvation that ive been using, i have others but dont ever use them

sacred zinc
#

but dont have it fully lvld up

faint cedar
#

The important card sets aren’t per class it’s per bonus

rose jewel
#

just use los forever

faint cedar
#

Use LOS forever

sacred zinc
#

k thanx

faint cedar
#

The real answer is that there’s a few late game dps card sets to go for based on the boss you’re fighting, but as a returning player there’s no reason to worry about them, so use LOS for everything until you’re more experienced with the game

rose jewel
#

not even experienced, until you actually have the sets

#

returnees aint gonna have any

bold geyser
#

maybe they'll be generous with an upcoming express 🙂

vast oriole
#

prob not

#

took them years to give los/lwc30 for free

torpid marsh
#

gold or fusion?

vast oriole
#

what ilvl

torpid marsh
#

1754

#

fusions?

vast oriole
#

yeah

torpid marsh
#

ty

bold geyser
#

basically a wash unless you need fusions badly

#

1730 wealth is really good

sacred zinc
#

i remember seeing island souls in the arkesia event, like a lot of them, i did all 4 lvls, went to lonely island and touched the statue, had only 2 souls in my inven, and checked the rewards, im now at 48 and it gave me only one reward meaning less than ten were submitted, i suppose there could have been duplicates, but it says 48 is my total, does that seem like the right amount after completing the arkesia event?

rose wren
#

yep

sacred zinc
#

that sucks, i def had one island soul before doing that event so i think i actually only got one more that I didnt have

#

*still to submit

rose wren
#

yea and its quite easy to get dups

vapid bluff
#

is it still worth buying boxes for act 4 and final act if the goal is only for a chance at ancient core?

bold geyser
#

are you beyond using any of the materials at all?

vapid bluff
#

yes ;x

vast oriole
#

well i buy kaz hm and serca hm boxes but more for the new mats (on main only)

vapid bluff
#

ahh i yea i better stop buying act4 boxes then

errant pendant
#

how accurate is the cp system when it comes to bracelets

vast oriole
#

weapon power line is inflated

#

rest are fine

errant pendant
#

no i meant the bracelet that gives more cp is better? 😅

vast oriole
#

depends your class

#

theres a dps calculator pinned in the class channels

#

can always ask them which bracelet is better also

sonic holly
#

does it matter if its willpower 8/9/10 to get an astrogem with boss dmg?

vast oriole
#

9 and 10 can have boss dmg

sonic holly
#

so they kinda the best to cut

vast oriole
#

yes

sonic holly
#

if ur goal is to optimize boss dmg

bold geyser
#

if you can fit em

lavish mortar
#

You likely will need 8s to get 17p bonuses

sonic holly
#

this is ridiculous

#

just dumped 150k in astrogem cutting

#

not even a 3/4

#

let alone a 3/5

faint cedar
lavish mortar
sonic holly
#

what's the best tech for fusing already cut astrogems?

bold geyser
#

weapon is the only chaos star worth a damn for supp right?

sonic holly
#

go with 3 legendaries, or 2 legendaries 1 relic?

lavish mortar
bold geyser
#

full relic now, but only a 62.5 score / 100 🥲

tryna get some alts up to "serviceable" so that, at the very least, they can start accumulating grid stuff

rather have them with a buncha uncut gems than liket hey are now with everything cut and nothing activated 🥲

What's the math behind those advanced honing 30-40 scrolls? Are they worth buying and using on every single attempt? Or just with the pity attempts?

bold geyser
#

calculator angle

lavish mortar
#

Id buy for grace, probably not use otherwise

bold geyser
#

almost certainly worth on grace, depends on current prices for every tap

tender flicker
#

don't think maxroll has the 20-30 and 30-40 scrolls, unless there is another calculator floating around

bold geyser
#

if you set the "show material values" business you can see the value of one, which is basically the same thing

tender flicker
#

maybe I'm blind mokokoStare

minor briar
#

u won’t have infinite relics

#

and 12+ points on leg isn’t too low chance either for 3x leg fuse (17%)

bold geyser
#

i'll try and calculate it for next time but i'm headed to bed

#

should be able to come up with a rule of thumb or so

minor briar
#

but also if ur using mostly bound mats, it’s almost never worth

#

cuz ur mostly just spending gold and not buying mats

sonic holly
# wise juniper What's the math behind those advanced honing 30-40 scrolls? Are they worth buyin...

so ive just ran the calculations and the answer differs depending on ur situation.

  1. Do you want to ah and lack abidos? then yes because if you were to buy abidos you would spend more.

  2. Do you have a big stock of abidos and dont care about saving resources? then no.

for short, following max rolls average results, doing 10 lvls on all 5 armors you end up doing 262 taps.
with scrolls on every tap the amount of taps you do reduces to 155.

Ive tested this myself and its accurate enough.
if you want i can send you the prompts i use on AI and u edit the market values of things and figure out for yourself

#

this is a pure example at abidos priced at 160g and scrolls priced at 2700 each (AH 30-40)

#

For short, I got it done in 142 taps (counted) with a bit above average luck

wise juniper
sonic holly
#

In my case I would've to buy all abidos as I want to force push one of my chars.
So for me, it was ideal to buy scrolls

#

Message me privately and I can share with you the prompts i used

#

Also that's only taking into account abidos as gold value.
I left shards, blue stones, leapstones out of the "gold valuation" but the prompt also lets you know how much of those materials you're saving on average.

128,868 Blue Stones, 2,469 Leapstones, and 859,120 Shards - that's what you save for boosting every tap, on top of what's in the imagine.
Keep in mind that im solo scrolling, no juicers (only use juicers when 6 orbs are full)

wise juniper
#

Yeah that makes sense. I have basically all bound shards, blue/read/leap stones so those are non factors.

I'm only considering the cost of abidos+raw gold. So it seems like if you're buying abidos, then it's worth to buy the scrolls for every attempt, but if you're not(say you have enough bound abidos from paradise or something), then it's not worth to buy the scrolls for every attempt.

#

Correct?

sonic holly
#

Exactly

wise juniper
#

Honestly that's a super good rule of thumb, thanks for looking into it.

sonic holly
#

Funny enough I looked into this just today cause I wanted a char to 1730 so they could start farming upper t4 mats asap 😄

#

Here are the numbers for when you have enough abidos for fully scrolling, but lack abidos to do it without scrolling

#

Keep in mind that these are averages in accordance to maxroll. If you get spammed chisel its gonna cost more 😄

sonic holly
# plain ermine Opps i replied to wrong guy sorry hahaha

we can cry together. Are you doing gem optimization? Or just trying to activate stuff.
In the end of my astrogem cutting session I managed to get 17/17/14 on my chaos cores for a grand total of 350k (just cutting values)
I guess that wasnt too bad

bold geyser
# sonic holly how do you check ark grid score?

from https://airplaner.github.io/lostark-arkgrid-gem-locator-v2/ , they simply divided my +% by my max possible%, so i just did the same the other way. removing all astros loses me a little over 800 cp, so i'm ballparking bis astros as 1300 (though ancient cores could raise that)

#

there may be a more rigorous way but im too tired to deal with it rn i'll try tomorrow 🙂

It'll cost 6-7m to complete my books, but I checked in trixion and even if I do that's only 9% more CP

would it not be better to just hone more alts to 1730?

6-7m for 9% cp seems kind of nuts

#

even though prices are the lowest they've ever been

Like are your alts rats? Will you be able to do all of the 1730 content even if you push them there? Books effect the whole roster so while yeah if you’re starting from nothing it’s a hefty cost, but it’s a one time buy

minor igloo
minor briar

Not enough to justify the gold you’re gonna spend for that push

minor briar
#

^

marsh grove
#

gold needs to go somewhere

#

whether it be books / gems / honing

minor briar
#

books then

#

doubt theyll go much lower than they r now

faint cedar
#

I’d personally spend on books now while they’re cheap, otherwise you pay twice as much once you get to them

marsh grove
#

I mean realistically I'll just

#

not have them finished*

#

when new books hit

faint cedar
#

Just go to 15

minor briar
#

might as well not play the game then..

#

why do ppl think like that..

marsh grove
#

cause I can feel it in my bones

#

new gems or books this year

minor briar
#

just hoard gold til 1 month before eos and buy everything when prices drop 99%

faint cedar
#

You do remember

#

That you have to have current books maxed to go to next tier right

#

If you’re contemplating pushing ALTS to 1730 you’re at a point where you should sacrificing some gold for progression for book upgrades during this event

gray verge
#

#

If you get untradable hell books for things you already maxed it feels like wasted gold

#

And at 15 you’ve gotten most of the power out of your engravings

#

Or you can buy to 15 and hold out for selectors to finish the expensive ones

pure basin
#

going from AH 30-40, is buying the lvl4 scrolls always worth buying

#

to use on grace

faint cedar
#

Believe so

#

If you have the gold to do so, you should fill juice every tap on grace

#

I want to say that it’s more cost effective to scroll every tap now in terms of mat saving and etc since scrolls are more widely available but I haven’t done the math

#

Bare minimum full juice the grace

pure basin
faint cedar
#

Ultimately it’s just rng on what your grace hits tbh

#

Is a scroll as much as a tap?

pure basin
#

sorry wdym by grace its?

faint cedar
#

6 bubbles

pure basin
#

armor scrolls: 2.6
armor tap: 2.4
weap scrolls 1.9
weap tap: 4k

#

0, they're all at 30

faint cedar
#

So with very base level math, you would need to hit a great success x2 with the scroll tap for you to save money on an armor piece

#

On just a normal tap

#

Otherwise you lose out 200 gold. If you hit a normal success, you’re -2.6k

#

Weapon if it goes great success on scroll hit you’re +2.1k, and giga profiting from great success x2

pure basin
#

i see thanks

faint cedar
#

At least I think that’s how the math is working, I’m on my first coffee

pure basin
#

that makes sense from what i can see

faint cedar
#

I think to save the most gold here you raw tap armor til grace and juice it fully. Weapon you can probably buy scrolls every tap since the cost is so low compared to the payoff

#

(If you’re buying every scroll)

pure basin
#

yea mostly buying all the scrolls, have a few but no where the amount i need

faint cedar
#

Maybe just log gold spent vs outcome on the armor pieces for a little bit

#

See if buying the scrolls is netting you cheaper progress

Could do one cycle of 6 with books, and one cycle without

Is that the Arkesia tour or something

#

Wait, uhh

dim pulsar
#

well uh its REQUIRED quests to start elgacia

rose jewel
#

That's Elgacia, it's a main story you have to do to keep going

#

Not like you have a saying if you wanna keep progressing

#

Sometimes it kind of scares you by adding all that nonsense but those are quests you should have already done in the first place

#

Unless they changed it and it let's you skip all those but idr that being the case

#

Coz I remember a lot of people having troubles with tabula quest (I never had any issues but people allegedly bricked it)

#

Tldr just go ahead

bold geyser
#

looks like it skips those old ones instead of requiring them

#

thats new 😄

rose jewel
#

Getting to Elgacia was always really convoluted, even more so after you had to do everything in one go instead of having some time to explore and whatnot before Elgacia even arrived

#

They may miss some quests but if it's true that tabula is still causing issues he's better off not bricking his msq

is there a downside to just keep honing the old gear?

gray verge

more expensive

pale wasp

what about special honing

#

is it the same or less mats?

gray verge
#

I mean special honing is rng anyhow.
If you have 1000s I’d save to convert up to new mats.
If you have just a few I’d tap to see if you get lucky

#

Since Tremor honing has higher base %

#

1% chance on +22
but 10-15% chance on new pieces

pale wasp
#

didnt get lucky 🙁

marsh grove
#

new pieces arent 10-15 ? they start at 5

honing to 12 and 13 were 5% and to 14 and 15 were 4% I think

#

5% yes

once you hit 20 it is always better to transfer to serca gear before using specials UNLESS you are already at +24

it depends which support

honestly like how my alts were 1700 and i only did core related raids so only had to do act 4

#

not fomo, just wasn't clicking with me

#

but now they are all slowly pushing to 1710 so im feeling the fomo of cores deadge

#

wait why does support get such little CP boost with ark grid Weirdga

#

i just set up my supp ark grid full 14 and i got like 50 CP lol

vast oriole
#

it gets a lot with the right lines

#

well 14 doesnt give much so

lucid axle
#

i thought i would get like at least 100 with 3 at 14 though

vast oriole
#

the important part is at 17 for supp

lucid axle
#

ah that might be why then

bold geyser
#

17 sun and moon gives a lottttt

guess im stuck on dps for a while then

vast oriole

so an example

#

my ark grid is normal, didnt optimize lines or whatever

#

with and without grid

bold geyser

mine was 2884.28 without, 3694.46 with. i'm guessing bis gems will end up being more than 500 cp then with higher base stats 😄

Up to ilvl 1585 is story, then honing to 1620. Gear transfer there takes you to 1640 (T4) where majority of the player base is at currently.

you do eventually age out of being able to get gold (or much of anything) from valtan, and a few of the others once you hit 1600+. you can get gold from 3 raids a week, at 1490 your biggest gain is from vykas + clown + brelshaza, until you unlock kayangel

At those early ilvls its easy to do some questing, get stronger gear and have the benefit of being over ilvl for it too. Makes them easier

Hello, can i somehow have more than 1 gold earning roster?

#

Without making another steam account

bold geyser
#

gray area, especially if you're funneling

brisk socket
#

Perhaps does anyone jnow how much ilevel i can be over before valtan normal mode doesnt give gold anymore? I have several chars and will probably slowly start building them all again

cunning haven
#

Yea, i want to funnel

#

If that is possible.. o_O

balmy plank
#

You start from zero again

cunning haven
#

Yeah doesnt seem worth but was just curious if its possible

balmy plank
#

I seeeee

#

Dang i shoulda created my 7th+ chars in a diff server..

#

Wow

You need to spend the time to do the entire story as there is no power pass or events active. You have to hone through tier 3, hone through tier 4 just to make a petty amount of gold to funnel

#

The the 2nd roster needs to keep up to avoid gold nerfs so you cant always funnel

cunning haven
#

Ahh actually

#

Yea

#

I see

balmy plank
#

You also have no cards, no nothing

cunning haven
#

Id prolly struggle tryna farm valtan gold

balmy plank
#

You have no characters so its only 1 funneling or you do the WHOOLLEE thing again for alts

cunning haven
#

If theres a powerpass/challenge express event

#

Is it 1 per server?

balmy plank
#

1 per region
