Just stop after you die, period, people complain every single time about not getting any reward but always send it

Premium gambling gone wrong

[bold geyser]

you can get extra lives from the double-number floor orbs, in addition to the normal +1 chest//rocket jump//+1 jump etc

[rose jewel]

"But this person made it to floor XX" yeah you aren't that person

[bold geyser]

but its uncommon

[faint cedar]

If my first drop is under floor 10 and I die on that drop I always gamble

[bold geyser]

same

[faint cedar]

But you don’t have to, you just have to accept the risk of getting nothing

[rose jewel]

I don't, I just stop, even if it's floor 1

[bold geyser]

but we understand it's a risk 🙂

the elemental guardian doesn't spawn on floor 11/22 etc, does it?

i rarely ever land there i dont recall

[jaunty iron]

It does depending on the key. Frost will still spawn the boss that kills you on even floors 22,44,66,88. While flame will still kill you on 11,33,55,77,99.

[bold geyser]

bastards

no safe haven then 😄

[faint cedar]

Well

The chance of getting an extra life

[bold geyser]

for perspective, for the rewards that are in hell and nether both, like gold or accessories or destiny stones, the rewards for landing on like level 4, dying, and stopping to take the rewards for the nether are around levels 40-50 in a regular hell key

[faint cedar]

So it’s still the best non matching floor you can get

Even tho u die

[jaunty iron]

Nah, they straight up aren't even bonus floors depending on the nether key, like frost will not spawn a bonus floor at 22, it will just be a regular floor with the explosion and then minions to kill

[noble sail]

[bold geyser]

to be fair, i'm not very good at explaining out loud 🙂

[rose jewel]

I suck at speaking english

I'm also at work so I can't at all

You can throw all the screenshots you want, that's what the ch is for

[rose wren]

could try the official discord playlostark and post in there mentor section

[mystic sierra]

where can you still farm unbound T3 mat ._. ?

[rose jewel]

Very lucky fate embers from chaos dungeon? Probably

Funneling is dead in t3

Mostly dead in general

[mystic sierra]

but I still see people putting back t3 leapstone in the market

[rose jewel]

People who had them from before the patch

[plain sorrel]

Is DPS bard any good now ? I got a smolge bard and occationally i can do more damage than a regular class, but she seems not popular like Valk

[faint cedar]

Define good

Problem with stuff like that is low sample size so it’s hard to find actual reliable data

[bold geyser]

NOT GREAT

highest performer is under the average of almost all classes for nm, but size is too small. even elsewhere though she's consistently at or very near the bottom

[mellow mauve]

no, that shit is not worth your time

[tender flicker]

its not a good time if you're being compared to blue gunlance

[plain sorrel]

Yeah so not good then, as i expect , my bard is too low lv anyway

[candid lake]

maybe they'll rework it again

[mellow mauve]

ark grid really didn't go dps bard any favors

[bold geyser]

i mean like, it's fine for homework

[faint cedar]

Having a pulse is fine for most homework lobbies

[bold geyser]

but its just kinda inting for anything except super casual farming

[plain sorrel]

Saw "iam not fun" aka iamdefild ran her earlier so thats why

[bold geyser]

be the change you want to see in the world

[plain sorrel]

That suck tbh, i do like dps bard , prertty good concep t since old tier 3, but SG does not give enough attentiom

[candid lake]

i think dps bard was ok in mordum, but once ark grid went in the equation, it kinda fell

icee can correct me tho

[mellow mauve]

the kit just kinda sucks for current raid design and ark grid double downs on making it suck more

[plain sorrel]

Yeah arkgrid changes lots of classes

[azure isle]

if i were to tap my armor to +20 do i juice it or raw tap it and save juice for +40s?

[faint cedar]

JUICE

And when you run out buy more and then JUICE

[plain sorrel]

Fair, she needs to stack prefty long meter

[azure isle]

i have about 560 juices

[faint cedar]

What are you poor

[azure isle]

are we sure about using them on normals?

[bold geyser]

i'm still overhauling cracines sheet, i'm typing as fast as i can =X

[azure isle]

its like the exact amount i need

[mellow mauve]

yeah, if they didn't decide to gimp meter gain with grid and instead buffed it. You could atleast just be a discount sorc just spamming big z nukes

[faint cedar]

I juice on full grace and that’s about it

Just make sure u convert raid mats and stuff

[azure isle]

im asking if i juice normal taps

[faint cedar]

On AH I don’t

You could book them

[azure isle]

unc are you drunk

[faint cedar]

But I wouldn’t juice

You showed AH

[plain sorrel]

Yeah that would be cool tbh, her tempest skill is very satisfying to hit

[bold geyser]

juicing regular honing is reasonable if you have lots to burn

[faint cedar]

It sounds like your juice is spoken for

If you have enough for AH

[bold geyser]

[faint cedar]

I’d do AH first then worry about normal taps after

[bold geyser]

you can always luck into specials and freetap to 20, you can't really cheese your way out of doing AH

[azure isle]

hm

[faint cedar]

Agreed

Use whatever’s left over from AH (if any) to juice whatever normal taps you have left

[azure isle]

sure

[faint cedar]

And don’t forget 19-20 books exist

[azure isle]

makes sene

[bold geyser]

back to it, i'll finish someday, gl

[azure isle]

can you convert T4.5 to T4?

[bold geyser]

not without selling and re-buying from market

[mellow mauve]

no

one way conversion

you would have to sell tradeable t4.5 and then use that gold to buy tradeable t4

[azure isle]

i have to do T4 dailies at 1730 then

[mellow mauve]

blues are cheap

unless you're weapon ah isn't done

[azure isle]

only head chest and pants left for +40

[mellow mauve]

then just do 1730 chaos and just buy the blues you need

the reds from 1730 are more valuable then the reds you'll get from 1720 chaos

[azure isle]

i have 700k blues and 7k leaps, just waiting on fusion

[faint cedar]

Story of my life

[mellow mauve]

yeye

[faint cedar]

Then the alts Idw hone have 3k fusions

[azure isle]

i can finish +40 but i still need t4 for +20

[mellow mauve]

I would still do recommend doing t4.5 dailies

[azure isle]

its dumb theres a daily limit for craft skips

[faint cedar]

Fate embers are better too

[mellow mauve]

true and true

[faint cedar]

Tradable mat fate ember large pouches

Mmmmm

[azure isle]

whats the plan here

finish +40 on all at once and grind 4.5 to sell and buy t4 to hone +20s?

[candid lake]

o wait, you aren't 1730 yet?

[azure isle]

no

i have 350k gold

[mellow mauve]

if you could managed that, yeah

[azure isle]

i dont think buying abidos is the move

i have so much rocks

[azure isle]

hmm

should i follow this or

[bold geyser]

follow how

[azure isle]

the mats

specifically the abidos cost

[bold geyser]

its just what the expected cost is 🙂

it could be more or less

[mellow mauve]

take it as a guide but not an absolute cause of rng

you could get it below average and have leftover

or get unlucky and use more cause of pities and such

[azure isle]

should i prepare 2k or go whenever i can, after +40 is done

[bold geyser]

i'd just do it as you get it tbh

[mellow mauve]

whenever you can, after 40

you won't be in a rush while 1730

[azure isle]

do i buy its books when doing it?

[bold geyser]

look at the book column for that

if they're cheaper on the market than the number in that row, its worth it to buy them and use them

[noble sail]

how do i get engraving books
i loged in today after 3 years

[azure isle]

way cheaper

[bold geyser]

thats why i'd stick to "optimal materials" rather than none, if its cheaper to use extra mats it'll tell you and save you money

[mellow mauve]

they drop from weekly content, daily content, and can be bought from the auction house

[bold geyser]

everything starts at legendary lvl 0 now, you can get them from random drops, or buy on the market

[noble sail]

and what about the cards?

[mellow mauve]

if you don't have any legendary engravings just hold off till the express event in june

[bold geyser]

same as ever

[mellow mauve]

they give you several legendaries for free

[bold geyser]

certain specific cards drop from specific content, or you can get them from packs

[noble sail]

and i forgot how to use auction house

[lavish mortar]

?servermerge

[buoyant dock]

The servers have recently merged. This has moved around some items, but they are not lost.
Step 1. Reclaim your characters from the Universal Storage on the character select screen.
Step 2. Login and claim your cards on the Universal Storage tab on the card menu using ALT+C.
Step 3. Reclaim your roster storage by using ESC and opening Universal Storage.
Step 4. Re-equip your cards as they were reset and must be re-equipped.

You are all good to go!
For more information on the merge read this.
If you are looking for visuals than checkout the pins in ⁠#lost-ark-help.

[lavish mortar]

You may have a bunch of cards from when you played

Just gotta claim them

[noble sail]

ok

i have to claim them by selecting and by finding what i want such a hassale

[tender flicker]

From esc menu, or whatever you have it bound to or the menu under the mini map. Though using it kinda depends if you have trusted status.

[vast oriole]

you want all cards

[noble sail]

i forgot which card i had
so i have to look into the chest and select 1 by 1

1 last thing how do i get runes

[azure isle]

are books expected to return to their price prior to the frog or will they be less expensive than that?

[plain sorrel]

Need to ask the Russian server

[tender flicker]

I'd imagine somewhere between old prices and frog prices since there will be less demand, but who knows

[vast oriole]

you know that ru got frog same time as us right?

[plain sorrel]

I think they gonna release ancient book, even poor like me can have a few book full then pretty much all the rich people finish already

[plain sorrel]

Now i know, i thought Ru had it first

[azure isle]

i suppose i cant be seen with no books at 1730

[vast oriole]

well they got notes before us XD

thats all

only thing they have before us is the ark pass

we are 1 month behind

[mellow mauve]

think they will settle slightly higher then current frog prices but I don't seem them reaching like 200k+

[azure isle]

Notes

[plain sorrel]

I think the price can stay relative high like this when no ancient book out, if they do ancient book, the price would fall like legendary to relic given they increase relic drop to phase it out

[mellow mauve]

yeah

but I don't see them doing ancient right this minute

it would be towards the later part of t4 (whatever becomes the akkan gear eqaulivent) or t5

[livid fossil]

T5 pogo

[foggy venture]

is the next big patch gonna give each 1710 characters a free relic core?

or is it only for 1730+

[vast oriole]

we dont know

[lavish mortar]

first im hearing of a free relic core

[foggy venture]

something about crafting a relic core box

[vast oriole]

well, same answer

[foggy venture]

answer should be here

o7

[candid lake]

for the next raid, there will be arelic core selector but it uses raid mats and core essence

only for like 1720 or some shit

and limited to 1

the 2nd one is a true selector

[foggy venture]

nice, i dont need to be a whale to get free core

[candid lake]

while the 1st one im p sure is where u can select the slot

but it will be a relic random from that slot

[azure isle]

relic core random selection chest

schizophrenic or what?

[candid lake]

you select the slot

and it gives u a random relic for that slot only

[azure isle]

thats ass

[candid lake]

im p sure

it's the same for the ancient ones

[azure isle]

not the 1760 one surely

[candid lake]

the 1760 is a true selector

the random one is where u can choose a slot

[azure isle]

so its 1 in 3

[candid lake]

o u can also choose the type for ancient oo

[azure isle]

not 1 in 6

[candid lake]

?

it is still 1 in 6

there are 3 dps and 3 sup cores per slot

[gray verge]

There’s 6 cores per slot

[azure isle]

how is it 1 in 6

when the image shows moon of red

[gray verge]

Chaos Moon has 6 possible variants

[azure isle]

thats 1 in 3

[gray verge]

etc

[candid lake]

... zyla

there are 3 cores per spec

[azure isle]

i dont understand

it shows red moon

[candid lake]

and each class has 2 specs

[azure isle]

there are only 3 red moons

how is it 1 in 6

[candid lake]

3* 2 = 6

do you not know each class has 2 specs?

[azure isle]

oh you cant target specs

fuck that

[candid lake]

nio

[azure isle]

is it 100% ancient

[candid lake]

yes

[vast oriole]

yes

[azure isle]

but you still get fucked by rng

[vast oriole]

yes

[azure isle]

i guess atleast its 1750

[candid lake]

u decide between 1 in 6 with gold and raid mats guaranteed ancient and 400 core essence

or gamba for guarnateed core u want and 10% or some shit

for ancient

for the current one we have in game

[azure isle]

i dont think i'd ever craft the relic/ancient box

theres some math to it

[candid lake]

like the current one we have in game ?

[azure isle]

you spend 200 to get +15 back

ye

[vast oriole]

ancient is 50

[azure isle]

next patch you spend 400 to get 50 back

[vast oriole]

not 15

[azure isle]

im not talking about new one

[vast oriole]

ah you mean the ancient box next one

kk

[azure isle]

the one we have

[candid lake]

dont forget 100k gold tho

[azure isle]

gold is rarely a problem

[vast oriole]

well till we get the new raid

• the new mats

it takes a while so you can still craft rn

[azure isle]

im at 185 essence

ill upgrade my last legendary and dont touch those chests

it should put me around 3.5k

[bold geyser]

do people on this server actually play on the KR servers at all?

[vast oriole]

ciel in souleater channel does

[bold geyser]

damn

well they or someone else will need to test the KR sheet then i dunno whether it's accurate or not 😄

[faint roost]

I dced doing my hell key, right after chest showed up, what do i do

[lavish mortar]

Reconnect asap, should still be there

[faint roost]

Was not there im in elnead

[lavish mortar]

Rip key then

You should have 5 or 10m to get back though I thought

[vast oriole]

You do

Happened to me one and i was ahle to reconnect inside

Its 10mins iirc

[livid fossil]

Got disconnected doing elisyum yesterday that was not cool

I was wondering why the monster where just sitting doing nothing

[hot dock]

guys what engravings are best for stone on dps? grudge and keen gives the most cp?

[faint cedar]

Consult your class channel for best stone

[hot dock]

oki

[faint cedar]

The overall dmg dif is minuscule though

Like less than half a %

[rose wren]

just go with whichever, literally dont need to minmax

[faint cedar]

9/7 is 9/7

[hot dock]

it's stones from hell may as well

[faint cedar]

Grudge raid or grudge keen are usually safe bets

[hot dock]

oki

i remember the nexus guide said something like keen is less future proof tou

[faint cedar]

As long as they’re on dmg engravings you use

[hot dock]

is it true

[rose jewel]

either use one both specs can use or any combi, or ask your class ch

[hot dock]

ye i asked

[faint cedar]

The difference between the engravings you cut are so tiny it literally doesn’t matter

[hot dock]

dnt they have different cp?

[faint cedar]

Maybe like

5cp

Idk

[hot dock]

i know that ss was much less than cd

[bold geyser]

not usually

this is definitely not fullly filled out correctly

but you get the idea

[azure isle]

ss and cd is indifferent

[faint cedar]

Well yeah

Same thing ones conditional one isn’t

[cobalt olive]

I'm trying to find World Tree Leaf #18. Online it says I need to fish anemone nodes in Mane Wave Harbor but I can't find that location.

[bold geyser]

i assume that's supposed to be wavestrand port, but #18 is just a generic WTL. you can get it anywhere, it's just random chance

unless the location says something OTHER than [Trade Skill] Fishing on the WTL screen you can farm it wherever you want

[balmy plank]

Maxroll has a detailed guide for any regional WTL in each region

Thats what I used for all my WTL

[cobalt olive]

Okay, thanks so much!

[steady socket]

I have a berserker at 1420 and a paladin i powerpassed to 1580 (regret this). I want to play slayer, should I wait for a new powerpass?

[tender flicker]

Yep. Realistically its gonna take you longer than 2 weeks to hit a 1640 even if you knowledge transfer it up.

[mellow mauve]

if you're not in a rush, yes

[tender flicker]

Take a peek at some gameplay and class videos beforehand just to make sure you vibe with the class

[livid fossil]

What was name of April fools npc for stone

[tender flicker]

To exchange? Its just the paradise exchange.

[livid fossil]

Okay

[azure isle]

What do i transfer first with limited thorns or is it a fixed route

[tender flicker]

Prio wep if you have a +24 or 25, since it'll be a ilvl + cp boost

[dim pulsar]

Doesnt matter

[tender flicker]

otherwise you'll get them all eventually

[bold geyser]

especially if you aren't honing them after the fact

(immediately, at least)

[azure isle]

Not with unbound for sure

[tender flicker]

If you had bound reds I'd go wep, but don't sweat it if you don't

tradeable is some 🐳 stuff

[dim pulsar]

Going weapon wont be cheap thats sure

[lavish mortar]

if it's your gk, do your weapon first zyla

[azure isle]

[lavish mortar]

cuz you ahve 24 or 25 already done

[tender flicker]

oh

[lavish mortar]

so it's just free dmg to transfer that

[tender flicker]

yeah, then wep

[azure isle]

Okay

Do i bother going beyond my base weapon hone or just hone armor (equally?) with bounds over time?

[lavish mortar]

Uh, your weapon is set for the next several raids, unless you want to do nightmare aegir/brel (that needs +19 all)

So id probably do armors

[azure isle]

Not rly into that kind of content, seems like all +18 is chilly

[lavish mortar]

+15 all gets you... nightmare church and I think hard mode aegir?
+17 gets you the ancient selector from church

Besides those 2 points, not much reason to hone besides being a dumbass (like me)

[azure isle]

I would like to match my armor to my weapon

[lavish mortar]

Eh id just go for +15 armors, then wait to see next raid from kr

[dim pulsar]

Full 18/20?

[azure isle]

18

I dont want to spend on gk anymore

[dim pulsar]

Just use free taps

[lavish mortar]

Damn already ditching new toy

[azure isle]

I did say im only using bounds after transfer

Read bozo

[dim pulsar]

And a ton of gold

[dim pulsar]

[azure isle]

My friends got multiple chars to raid

[lavish mortar]

You could too

[azure isle]

Im here with 1 giga juiced gk and an excaliburless valk

[lavish mortar]

If you didnt waste millions on +25, and karma

[azure isle]

Karma part is ragebait

But i wasnt going to transfer before halbert hit +25

idk im happy with my only 2 and a homeless bard i have

They want more raids

[lavish mortar]

Then you do you
I basically play 2.5 chars

[cedar igloo]

how much diff in dmg is high ad dmg mid outgoing dmg vs other way around? anyone knows?

[tender flicker]

ballpark

[bold geyser]

depends on char and how much of each you already have

[cedar igloo]

0.09% interesting

[hearty kraken]

tldr, its not something to worry about

you would need to constantly recalculate it depending on stats you gain

[cedar igloo]

just trying think if its worth to spend extra 200k or 300k for that little gain

[bold geyser]

probably not

[tender flicker]

I wouldn't personally

[lavish mortar]

If that little gain is worth 200k just buy a high/high and dont think about it anymore LMAO

[cedar igloo]

you buy it for me

[lavish mortar]

Id rather buy my own thx

[faint mantle]

Is the cp from serca armour upgrade accurate, so like the 10 cp per upgrade are equivalent to the dps increase or is it fake cp?

[minor briar]

all or most cp sources r multiplicative so the more u have, the more u gain so kinda yes, fake cp/dps inc

tho maybe armor hones r always 8-10 cp

still would be a diff overall % for everyone then

[faint mantle]

Yeah I don’t mean if it it different cp for everyone but f.e if I gain +20 cp from a grudge note is two +10 cp armor hones the same dps increase or is armor honing not that good dps whise, cp is just the stat we see

[minor briar]

book nodes is like .75% per and armor hones used to be .33% each, not sure about serca gear

.33 being 1/5th of a weap tap 1.66%

weap per tap dmg might’ve gone up to 2.5 each meaning each armor tap is .5 now but idk

haven’t seen anyone calc/mention it

[faint mantle]

Okay thanks

[plush nebula]

well, i got hacked and lost all golds/ tradable skins is there anything i should do or just move on

[dim pulsar]

Ask ags support, but they gonna say its ur problem cuz not enough security

[plush nebula]

yeah and that's fair enough, but i was wondering, the only way to log on lost ark is trough steam no ?

[dim pulsar]

Just steam for us

[plush nebula]

atleast the gear is still there

[storm geode]

tysm!

[pure basin]

what pattern is this referring to

[tender flicker]

g2 pre x900 full meter mech

People usually avoid it by doing enough dps

Easiest way is having everyone die before the mech except 1 confident+tanky person and have them survive

this if you're on NA btw 👀

[pure basin]

is it this mech with the puddles

[tender flicker]

nah

you need to let him hit full meter before puddles

puddles is x900

uh...define common. More common with frog atm, still worth a good chunk of money.

[weary oyster]

[weary oyster]

showing off = decrease luck

[tender flicker]

Most lobbies never see the pre x900 full meter mech

because the goal is to avoid it entirely

[pure basin]

gotcha, guess everyone is pushing so maybe i havent seen it yet? do u uknow what its called on maxroll just wanna see it so i know what to look out for

[tender flicker]

uh

don't see it on maxroll but here https://youtu.be/99ZhXs-SAx0?t=179

[vast oriole]

just get your support to go ha and ce

and dr himself

[tender flicker]

Basically the last line here, it doesn't show them specifically

since even during prog it would have been a reset if you see full meter mech

[vast oriole]

we did it during prog

[pure basin]

ahh yeah we will prob never see that in a pug lobby will have to manifest it in a static or something

[vast oriole]

well i saw few times lobby names to do this mech

[pure basin]

yeah i only saw ppl posting on release week

[tender flicker]

sometimes people specifically make lobbies for the achiev

like there was one on NA 5 minutes ago

[azure isle]

achievement discord is da wei

[pure basin]

maybe its time for me to make one

[candid lake]

that's not the one

that one is the jarvan mech

and the rocks one where he spawns rocks, and does the telekinesis rings

the one for achieve is full meter, which he can do until he breaks the map during rocks

either seonee or memo says you need to push to avoid that mech

o/w dps is a lost cause

[tender flicker]

That wasn't specifically the tfm bug? I've never seen it outside of pre x900 when we did it intentionally

[candid lake]

the rocks is one variant

jarvan is the other

[tender flicker]

right

[candid lake]

although im not sure if he actually does the rocks in normal mode because when we constalty tried for the achieve, he never did the rocks one. Only Jarvan

I wonder if it's tfm exclusive

[steady socket]

I dont mind playing the older raids/content since i never experienced anything after Valtan. I just dont wanna play the base game story again lol

[tender flicker]

they were asking if it was on maxroll, the screenshot was just me saying they only had 1 line talking about it

and that people skip it

Progression up to 1585 is story based, as in you get gear for doing story instead of honing

tbh, I forget what ilvl valtan is around, but you'll probably have to do some repeat story or knowledge transfer it with gold

[candid lake]

1415?

[tender flicker]

if you're not going to powerpass it

[candid lake]

i think

[steady socket]

My main is 1420 and quit right after valtan so 1415 sounds right

So id have to replay the post base game continents?

Unless i knowledge transfer

[tender flicker]

I mean, its like 800 gold to transfer to vern. But it does increase from there

You can KT up to whatever story the furthest character is at

[steady socket]

Hmm ok i never got to experience those continent stories so might be worth playing, are they better than base game story?

[tender flicker]

can't help you there, I skip everything

[shy chasm]

Oh the island quests?

[azure isle]

if you wont watch cutscenes

dont bother

[shy chasm]

Has the powerpass expired

[azure isle]

long ago

[shy chasm]

Oh shid

[livid fossil]

[brisk socket]

does super charge engraving not work with casting skills?

[vast oriole]

People say its way better later on

But i wouldnt know

[vast oriole]

No, casting skills is all out attack

[azure isle]

no thats another engraving

[vast oriole]

Supercharge is for charging skills

Only 2 classes use all out

Maybe 3

Max

[plain sorrel]

Super charge dragon girl

[lavish mortar]

2.5
Red gl, rh destro, and some dreadroar gk

[plain sorrel]

Is super charged RE Blade still a thing or nah ?

[tender flicker]

not really afaik

[vast oriole]

Bk breaker also

But my 2-3 was for aoa

Igniter, barrage

[lavish mortar]

Oh I mis read oop

[lucid axle]

222 ark grid is SC so it’s still a thing but afaik no plays it probably less dmg

[faint cedar]

No

Unless you care very little about dmg

FW is the move

[karmic hollow]

Does anyone know the Core prio for the Drizzle build?

[jovial bobcat]

can i exchange this thing to its t4 equivalent

[azure isle]

no

[rose jewel]

You don't even need those in t4

[jovial bobcat]

yeah just thought there was an exchange just like with the t3 mats

[karmic hollow]

Not for those specifically

[rose jewel]

Even if there was you don't need them

You're given cut accs for free and you buy your bis ones from market or get them from hell very slowly

[noble sail]

why does people buy loging items in aution?

[azure isle]

to craft stuff

[noble sail]

craft what

[noble sail]

hmnn

[azure isle]

ive been buying orange gravestone to craft abidos too

[rose wren]

its the most common people do to spend there lifeskills on, quick and easy either sell or craft fusion oreha stone or whatever its named, any lifeskill can craft them in t4

[noble sail]

i quit lost ark after brel release.
i came just to enjoy solo mode
so i was thinking how can i upgrade my stronghold and get free logings and get unbound gold ?
cause only way i can earn unbound gold is by selling mats, selling craft item and selling books if i am lucky enough

btw how can i earn trable honing mats as a fully solo player

[karmic hollow]

Fate Embers, Sevek, Chaos Gates for shard bags

[rose jewel]

For Tradable hone mats just think they don't exist, not in t3

Like just forget they exist entirely until you move to t4

[noble sail]

what is fate embers sevek i remeber chaos gate
i just came back to the game

[bold geyser]

even as a solo player still try to do the world boss and chaos gates, if you can, they're quick and easy and don't require you to make a group 🙂

[rose jewel]

For unbound gold, you don't need unbound gold in t3 as well, everything can be done with bound gold unless you want to buy leaps or stones from market to accelerate getting out of there

[bold geyser]

fate embers weren't around when you quit, its a treasure that drops sometimes wehn doing guardiands or chaos dungeon

[vast oriole]

sevek is the world boss in north kurzan

[bold geyser]

has random stuff, sometimes tradeable materials, sometimes cards, sometimes gold

[rose jewel]

To begin with and to understand what advice we must even give, what item level are you right now

[vast oriole]

you rmemeber the gold portal inchaos dungeons?
kinda got replaced by fate ember, its rng extra loot (can be gold, cards, silvers, mats etc)

[rose wren]

cant be true, feels like ember been many years

[noble sail]

i noticed 1 thing you dont need gold for buying accesories anymore

so what are gold needed for now actually engravings and what?

[rose jewel]

^

[jovial bobcat]

what does this give? more elysian attempts?

[vast oriole]

yes

[rose jewel]

Yes

[bold geyser]

yeah

tickets

[jovial bobcat]

is it worth getting over bound gold

[vast oriole]

no

[rose jewel]

No

[bold geyser]

only if you're pushing top 30

[rose jewel]

Which he isn't

[noble sail]

[bold geyser]

https://tenor.com/view/the-x-files-i-want-to-believe-trust-issues-trust-gif-5016443

bound gold or the stone chest?

[rose jewel]

What ilv are you

[jovial bobcat]

1640

[vast oriole]

bound gold

[rose jewel]

Gold imo

[karmic hollow]

Bound gold

[jovial bobcat]

🫡

[azure isle]

bro unlocked paradise and jumped into F9

[bold geyser]

ehhhh

[rose jewel]

You still don't even need to hone yet to progress

[karmic hollow]

I would keep doing Solo raids and story till you hit the 1580 to 1620 hone progression

[noble sail]

i just want to understand mechanics and get a good grasp of the game and then move forward

[vast oriole]

you need gold to buy accessories, but it wont be your case right now
still need gold to buy stuff from market, honing (after 1640), interacting with other vertical systems (not yet for you)

[bold geyser]

its 20k red stones, if you're not swimming in them its a better value for pushing your weapon, but gold is good too

[rose jewel]

And when you hit 1585 which is where the story stops and you have to start honing, you start doing raids to get gold

[vast oriole]

?progression

[buoyant dock]

Jump to Gear Progression Steps: #lost-ark-help message

[rose jewel]

You still more than probably need gold to buy the stupid orehas from solo shop

[vast oriole]

true

[azure isle]

16k isnt that bad

it might be bad 💀

[rose jewel]

Orehas won't be the stopping point tho, it will be leaps

It will take him around 3 to 4 weeks unless the event shops are juiced

[bold geyser]

16k what now

[rose jewel]

Gold

[bold geyser]

o

[azure isle]

16k gold for 400 red abidos

but you cant spend it anyway

[rose jewel]

Can, should and need

[azure isle]

my bard relies on the daily 40 leaps to mass hone

[rose jewel]

Thus why I mentioned events

The daily amount of materials to get out of that hell zone is disgusting low

[azure isle]

surely express will juice us this time

[bold geyser]

what level is your poor bard now

[rose jewel]

Express starts at 1640

[rose wren]

ull make more than 18k a week if u do also do other gold related

[azure isle]

1 away from salvation

and its weapon hone

[bold geyser]

😮

[azure isle]

not cute at all

[bold geyser]

just AH armors

[mellow mauve]

very bonita

[rose jewel]

Assuming he 1- has the gold to even post in market and 2- has trusted stat

[azure isle]

wdym AH im not even 1620

[bold geyser]

ahs hit

hone faster

[karmic hollow]

can they if they don't have Echidna unlocked?

[azure isle]

im waiting for this bozo

[bold geyser]

1730?

[azure isle]

i hate that you can only use 40 craft skip a day

im just waiting on abidos

yeah

[bold geyser]

ah i ran outta my skips long ago

[rose jewel]

Just be rich duh

[rose wren]

o there's a limit usage lol

[azure isle]

i be rich every wednesday

i pull grudge books

[rose jewel]

Not rich enough it seems

[karmic hollow]

I wish I can be rich, I'm poor until gold frog ends

[rose jewel]

Just be more rich

[bold geyser]

[rose jewel]

Like no one ever was

[bold geyser]

🎶 i'll charge you, and you'll pay me 🎶

[rose jewel]

151 credit cards

[azure isle]

what if i sold my 8 to be rich

[jovial bobcat]

?advhoning

[buoyant dock]

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

[noble sail]

1 quick question will be able to craft any gear or accesorie if i play solo mode.
that onme that i need for higher content

[mellow mauve]

temporarily be rich till you use the gold

[rose jewel]

One 8 haha

[bold geyser]

you can solo all the way up through mordum currently, so you can craft all the gear you need for tier 4

[karmic hollow]

You just won't be able to craft the T4.5 gear cause that's current content

[bold geyser]

^

[jovial bobcat]

just wanna clarify, if im not using express i start adv honing once i get this gear to +12 right

[bold geyser]

correct

[jovial bobcat]

and adv honing has 10 levels?

[bold geyser]

reaslistically nobody is going to come and arrest you if you do it out of order

[azure isle]

40

[rose jewel]

You don't need to craft any accessory, you get them for free (kinda bad ones but usable), for armors you can, for bracelets you just buy them outright for usable ones, you can do everything solo until 1680

[bold geyser]

its just for the sake of efficiency

[karmic hollow]

40 levels, but each 10 requires a different mat to unlock it

[jovial bobcat]

what does the "1-10" mean in the guide

[azure isle]

you can go from 10 to 40

guide takes you step by step

[bold geyser]

up to AH10

[jovial bobcat]

but will the enhancement level change every 10 levels?

[noble sail]

thast a lot of content for 1 person i guess

[jovial bobcat]

go up i mean

[bold geyser]

goes up every AH

[azure isle]

the what

[jovial bobcat]

okay thank you

[karmic hollow]

yes your ilevel goes up with each lvl of AH

[bold geyser]

each time you finish an AH level it raises the item level by 1

[rose jewel]

It's like hundreds of hours, maybe thousands of you put horizontal stuff in there

[jovial bobcat]

should i try juicing up every attempt with these?

[bold geyser]

calculator angle

[rose jewel]

They should also increase the solo raids later down the road, so 1700+

[karmic hollow]

eventually

[bold geyser]

generally, especially if you aren't flush, you try to juice on "grace", which is when you have all 6 orbs full

[karmic hollow]

we probably won't get a new solo raid till the next big 8 player raid

[bold geyser]

if you're rich, you can do it more often, and if you're poor, you can just send it, though you can cheaply get those scrolls from teh solo shop

[rose jewel]

You can play the game fully solo if you're patient enough, if you ever wanna try group raids you can find discords to get into learning groups, you won't be the first nor the last

[bold geyser]

i would be shocked if they dont have solo kaz by the end of the year

[rose jewel]

The game provides you almost everything you need

I wouldn't

[karmic hollow]

only issue i see is that they'd have to do both Act 4 and Finale solos

[rose jewel]

Let the actual big guy have it's fair share of time being group only

[bold geyser]

they did it with 2 and 3 😄

[rose jewel]

Coz they were very old raids already

[bold geyser]

fine

behemoth solo

[rose jewel]

Which one would die faster tho, solo or group

[karmic hollow]

100% group

[jovial bobcat]

do people still do behemoth? i seldom see any lobbies up in game

[karmic hollow]

I see some on occasion, and I post one for ppl here and there. but they typically pop up during Mokoko events

[echo fox]

hi i'm a returning player and i'm 1520. i just did solo brel and none of my items can be honed at all for some reason? How do I upgrade now?

[bold geyser]

?progression

[buoyant dock]

Jump to Gear Progression Steps: #lost-ark-help message

[bold geyser]

up until akkan you dont need to hone anymore, you advance your gear simply by continuing the story

[echo fox]

oh ok, thank you

[bold geyser]

you can check the vendor in wavestrand port since you have half-and-half, to complete your brel set'

[echo fox]

when the powerpass comes out i assume that auto completes all that main story quest and the continents?

[bold geyser]

the most recent powerpass copmleted everything up through south rimeria

leaving just the assault on diaspero and finale campaigns to go through

original timeline was a week and a half from now, won't know for sure until we ahve confirmation so could be later

[echo fox]

isn't the june powerpass supposed to be further than south rimeria?

[bold geyser]

dotn have yet 😄

[echo fox]

claude seems to think so lol

[bold geyser]

while i would never start a disagreement with claude, i do not have the resources or futuresight that it does, so i couldn't say

[echo fox]

is there a benfit in doing the sidereal quest up until i cant on the sidereal weapon? like do the materials not drop at all if you dont do it? i think they're sellable?

[rose wren]

no, u lose storage

[bold geyser]

basically just for funsies, unless you're willing to drop $30-50k on the weapon

the dropped materials are sellable, but very rare, and only in group content

[echo fox]

so you can still get the sidereal weapon mats to drop without oding this quest to sell?

[bold geyser]

never gotten one, so i dont have a positive data point for you, sorry 🙁

hopefully a lucksack can chime in

[vast oriole]

No

Theres no powerpass after rimeria for now

[gusty kraken]

guys just hit 1730, wanted to ask if its worth to trade cube ticket to hell keys

[vast oriole]

Im not trading personally

Keys are too rng

[bold geyser]

statistically, yes, but too many variables

im trading tickets i already got, but im not doing the haal shuffle

[gusty kraken]

ahh i see, so its either choosing steady income or rng

oh what's haal shuffle

[bold geyser]

turning sands of time or whatever into cube tickets into keys

[gusty kraken]

just saw alot of things that can help my other alts after reaching 1730, outside from the serca exchange (books), is there any other exchange that I can do?

[rose jewel]

You forgot a very important detail

[gusty kraken]

ohh maybe i need to dig into that

[rose jewel]

Keys bought / traded are old keys

If I'm not entirely stupid

Meaning old t4 mats

Unless I'm mistaking them with the bugged shop ones that got fixed, but even if they were new ones I wouldn't ever

[bold geyser]

will check when i get back

yeah it trades to 1700 keys p sure

[rose jewel]

(remember new cube don't drop/has tix)

[bold geyser]

unrelated, still brb, how long after i make a char on EU can i look at the market? i just wanna price check

[rose wren]

nvern msq complete or lv50

[bold geyser]

can try https://thejunglewalrus.github.io/hell-rewards-picker/ looks pretty dunno how accurate/up to date it is

[gusty kraken]

oh im drunk from the explanation,
so this will drop the old mats?

ahhh okay, i will try to look at it

[tender flicker]

nah splendid should be new

[bold geyser]

no, splendid is new

[gusty kraken]

sorry guys, unfamiliar with alot of the terminology, but really appreciate youranswers!

[bold geyser]

but the cube tix they give you from teh sands aren't 1730 iirc

[rose wren]

thats the point of here to understand/get familiar

[rose jewel]

Ok they either changed it or I was mistaking stuff

Either way, nah

[gusty kraken]

ahhh, this one i havent done yet cause im very fresh, i am trying to save the hourglass since i dont have any sand yet, trying to see guide to know whats to do

[tender flicker]

sands exchange for cube tickets

you can exchange cube tickets for splendid keys

[faint cedar]

If you’re still new I don’t recommend exchanging since you likely need gems

[bold geyser]

haals is replacement for 1730+ cube, you can do it once a week, and the sands just multiplies the reward linearly

[faint cedar]

Let paradise carry your progression mats over time and save up all the gems you get to funnel for a main set of 8 gems

[bold geyser]

sooooo....shit outta luck then

[bold geyser]

i stand corrected 😄

[gusty kraken]

oh wheres this, do i need to go to the npc instead of alt q?

[bold geyser]

thought they were key 4s not cube 4s

[gusty kraken]

ahh, do people do it close to reset (to gather sand) or it doesnt matter

[dim pulsar]

i do them if i have 5 sands or its end of week

[gusty kraken]

ahh make sense, maybe i should save to hopefully finish my 8's

[tender flicker]

thats just from the alt q paradise menu as well

people tend to run haal's closer to end of week in general

[bold geyser]

closer to reset gives you more chances to get more sands. you're unlikely to get a ton of sands unless you have a bunch of aura pots, but if you HAPPENED to overcap sands you can't get any more, so its better to run it late in the week as possible

[faint cedar]

If you have innanas you’ll be at 4ish sands with a full week of dailies

[gusty kraken]

oh just saw it

ahhh okay

[faint cedar]

If not at 5

[gusty kraken]

i will do it before reset then

[faint cedar]

Just run on Tuesday night after dailies

[gusty kraken]

also, if you didnt do your hourglass that week, wkill the sand carry over to next week?

[dim pulsar]

yeah

[tender flicker]

Sands carry over, but you'll lose your weekly entry

[dim pulsar]

but its WAY better to run ur haals as u loose entry

[faint cedar]

Yes but you’re missing an entire entry which is worse than saving

[tender flicker]

so just run at least once a week

[bold geyser]

its linear, so even if you had no sands, you still get good rewards

3 sands is just 4x rewards, then it resets you back to 0

[gusty kraken]

ahhh okay, once a week before reset, regardless of sand
do cubes
let hell keys carry progression
exchange mats to help alts (if want)

okay this is so far what I gathered as a fresh 1730

[bold geyser]

its like the "use 3 cube tickets" checkbox

[gusty kraken]

will try to look for more if any, appreciate you answer guys, if you have any other tips please do let me know

[gusty kraken]

ahhh it make sense then!
Thankyou soc

[bold geyser]

glgl

[tender flicker]

sell tradeable reds, they're way too expensive to justify using for most non whales

[faint cedar]

For characters that have cubes, don’t do 3x, take the time for single entry because the lucky rooms are not 3x rewards. More tickets, more chances of lucky rooms, more gems

[bold geyser]

when i get back i need to recruit some poor sap to help me fill out the EU price sheet 😄

[gusty kraken]

❤️

[tender flicker]

Its not a lot, but at 1730 the tradeable reds from the guild shop is a decent buy

[echo fox]

how bad of a spot is pinnacle glaivier in right now? doom status, never play it feels like from reading around in discord lol. I thought nights edge was in a good spot but people also said that's not very fluid to play right now?

[rose jewel]

Every main will say their class suck unless they're arcana

If you like it play it

Tier lists suck, everything can clear anything

[azure isle]

dont play classes based on where they sit in a tierlist

one balance patch and its dogshit

[rose wren]

such list doesnt exist

[tender flicker]

Night's edge feels pretty bad before ark grid, the 503 setup with ark grid is decent/good

[echo fox]

i think it's more like it just feels awful to play, high amounts of effort for low damage on glaivier cycling the 3 red skills and then NE apparently feels bad cause the skills don't always line up well and sometimes the ability misses one hit so the gauge is at 99% often

[dim pulsar]

ppl will always say that ur class is bad, just play WHAT U LIKE

dont fomo

[echo fox]

i saw a video of people saying 503 was good but lots of people complaining about it too in discord

[dim pulsar]

today ur trash when next patch ur Top1 class

[tender flicker]

I like it, but then again I'm also comparing it to my blade and it feels more forgiving there

If you don't like classes that build/spend, there are choices that aren't as punishing for missing abilities

[echo fox]

i think the complaints on glaivier are also that it's a back attacker

[rose jewel]

Try whatever class you may like, if you like it more stick with it, otherwise play whatever you feel like

[dim pulsar]

ppl will ALWAYS complain

even arcana player are crybabies while still doing top 1 dmg since START of char beeing playable

[echo fox]

i'm a returning player who has like 1800 hours at the start of the game up until probably brel released, most of which were on pinnacle glaivier so i'm more curious of like "in the current state of the game, how much harder is it to play a back attacker versus non-positional" due to bosses being sped up/harder/faster, etc.

[rose jewel]

Oh no my class is/feels bad I will switch to this other

Ok then switch

Oh no this class feels bad compared to this other I will-----

[tender flicker]

Depends on the raid/gate

[azure isle]

FA is harder than BA tbh

[tender flicker]

On kazeros 2-2, 2-3 most positional attackers are gonna feel bad imo for example

[dim pulsar]

aaaand u end up with 6 chars that are NOT even close to Real endgame cuz u swapped 6 times

[rose jewel]

Oh no this game is a second job I will never catch up

[echo fox]

i recognize that you clearly get triggered for some reason but nobody is talking about being top tier dps

[rose jewel]

You need 375519048-1;*+7"8!2-@ alts to even play

[echo fox]

we're talking about how does it feel to play right now

[dim pulsar]

[tender flicker]

If you wanna play a chill class, sure hitmaster in general is more relaxed

[dim pulsar]

any class for ANY player might be BAD/Good/PERFECT its always the HOW u want to play and what u want to play

[rose jewel]

Bro we're memeing between us, don't worry about it too much

[echo fox]

i find it more interesting that you believe that a non-answer is a helpful answer

[rose jewel]

And don't take everything to heart

[dim pulsar]

and here ppl say that Artillerist is crap

[rose jewel]

It is

[azure isle]

it is tho

[tender flicker]

xd

[rose jewel]

I don't play it but it is

[dim pulsar]

u see, they call it crap

while i love my crap

[azure isle]

any class that isnt female is trash

[rose jewel]

Based

[azure isle]

agreers?

[bold geyser]

if you're worried about public opinion just play arcana

[azure isle]

agreers.

[echo fox]

xD

[tender flicker]

You can try control if you wanna play a less clunky glaivier

[rose jewel]

That's literally the first thing that I said wtf

[echo fox]

i'm more debating between pinnacle and nights edge tbh

[azure isle]

why you want him to get hated on

[bold geyser]

otherwise dont' sweat peoples various opinions about your class

[echo fox]

control feels too brain dead for me i think but isnt that similar to nights edge

[rose jewel]

I played both pinnacle and NE, I hated both, ask a glavier main and they will say they also hate her like her, it's just biased answers all around

[echo fox]

or does nights edge feel more engaging than control

[bold geyser]

i do not care whether anyone is hated on, play what you enjoy, or if you enjoy not enjoying things, do that instead

[azure isle]

you cant ask that

there is no answer to that

everyone feels different playing something

[bold geyser]

ask in souleater and glaiver channels and hope enough people play both to form a consensus

[tender flicker]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDDSPxYgvpM If you want some more general class info

[rose jewel]

"they are different" there, done

[dim pulsar]

ah yeah the 7H MOVIE of classes

yeah watch it

[tender flicker]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmtaHPXLwac Example of 503 NE.

[echo fox]

i did watch it actually

[bold geyser]

i kinda like that he put it together honestly 😄

[tender flicker]

I mean, the classes are timemarked

[bold geyser]

good on im

[dim pulsar]

[rose jewel]

I have some issues with pal's video

[tender flicker]

tbh, kinda same

[bold geyser]

make your own competeing video

[livid fossil]

[dim pulsar]

same, they should say "unplayable"

and call it a day

[rose jewel]

He talks about past classes on a very different class "oh I forgot this about X"

[bold geyser]

yeah i'd much prefer going into them with a plan instead of spitballing 😄

[rose jewel]

Mfer edit it in that class's portion of the vid

[bold geyser]

are you casting a spell

[rose jewel]

My phone is having a stroke

[tender flicker]

More often than not on 503 NE you'll have to change your rotation/flex your purple builders

since no one is hitting every skill in a raid

Thats fine for me, but maybe some people want a fixed fixed rotation

[echo fox]

makes sense

[rose jewel]

I think I just summoned an ancient eldritch being behind me

[echo fox]

i might just stick with pinnacle but was contemplating trying something new

[rose jewel]

Try it

[bold geyser]

got at least a week before the powerpass

try both

[rose jewel]

You can pay 600g and test stuff in trixion after

[livid fossil]

What is worse that can happen you change again

[rose jewel]

He probably can explode

[tender flicker]

Tbh, pinnacle strikes me as a little clunky cycling 2 weps/bars, being spec, back attacking, and being blunt thorn. To each their own though if you like it.

[rose jewel]

You never know

[azure isle]

what if he implodes

[echo fox]

pay 600g for what?

[rose jewel]

Knowledge transfer

[bold geyser]

nvern KT

[rose jewel]

Unless you already have the class made?

[echo fox]

i don't think people play BT now do they?

according to that pal video

[livid fossil]

[echo fox]

you don't have to now

[tender flicker]

oh

I definitely remember glaives using red T and being pissed, but could be wrong now

[livid fossil]

Deathblade reaper slayer

I have all of those and

[echo fox]

i don't even have ark grid unlocked i'm 1520 but according to that video you can get something to reduce your crit chance on red skills or something and increase crit dmg and play something other than bt now on 333

and apparently you only need 1 bar on pinnacle cycle now instead of 3

[livid fossil]

Dude I would not be worried about ark grid at that ilvl you barely out of area

Just play the game

[tender flicker]

It sucks to change mains and we're about to get an express event, it doesn't hurt for them to look at ark grid

[rose jewel]

Ok so you don't even have half the things you need

[tender flicker]

Since this will be their main for however many months

[bold geyser]

any easy way to check market on EU/KR myself before i try to trick someone into checking?

[rose jewel]

You're a returnee from tier 3, you can switch mains like 30 times right now, literally test stuff in trixion and stick with what you enjoy

[azure isle]

ask me for eu

[echo fox]

do you just do the lowest knowledge transfer?

[azure isle]

goodluck on korea

[bold geyser]

first KT gets you to level 50, and story through north vern

pretty good value

[azure isle]

this site auto pulls prices but they arent 100% accurate

[bold geyser]

wait how not accurate are we talking

cause thats perfect

[azure isle]

lemme check

it shows t4 abidos is 146

[bold geyser]

i'm literally just trying to get close enough to get this out the door, then worry about fine tuning w/ feedback

[azure isle]

its 145

its not completely inaccurate

[bold geyser]

unforgiveable

[azure isle]

just not completely accurate

very minor dif

[rose wren]

thats low stock, so it adjust quick

[azure isle]

atro shows 182

its 185

etc

[bold geyser]

thats all fine 😄 appreciate it

[azure isle]

you can always ping me to check

[dim pulsar]

24/7 valid bot

[azure isle]

im just laggy sometimes

[bold geyser]

lemme know what gems are rn? 7/8/9/10?

think i got everything else

[rose wren]

how we know u arent AI gen? lol

[azure isle]

good question, you dont

[tender flicker]

Someone mentioned bots the other day in the official discord and I typed "hh". I got a 24hr chat timeout.

[vast oriole]

im pretty sure thats auto filtered

[strong moat]

i don't think you quite understand what "hh" actually means

[azure isle]

just cause ur a pervert doesnt mean hh is a bad string

[lavish mortar]

Whats it got to do with being a pervert

[azure isle]

hh is short for a corn site

[lavish mortar]

Also short for something in German related to ww2

[azure isle]

is it something as bad as "jap" to JP people that would warrant a warn at minimum or ban depending on use case

[bold geyser]

not a slur

[azure isle]

i think i know what he means

[gray verge]

… it’s auto filtered because it is used as criticism of Lost Ark’s AGS team.

Clown Peach also gives you a timeout.

[azure isle]

just cause he said german

[gray verge]

people would spam both

[bold geyser]

loa players are weird

[gray verge]

*people are weird

[tender flicker]

Was it not the phrase bots spammed for some reason early in the game?

I've managed to not connect those dots until now apparently

[bold geyser]

[azure isle]

some unknowns are better stay unknown

[gray verge]

yes, and to mock AGS for shit bot cleanup- people spammed it on discord and forums

(we had a forums for like 3 months)

[tender flicker]

I guess I don't play enough gamer games

[mystic sierra]

except for galatur will, how do I destroy the other item ? ._.

[bold geyser]

alright here's the updated* sheet for gold-to-damage efficiency, still need to figure out calc for AH21-40 and a lot of assumptions were left as they were so they may not be accurate. KR is disabled until i figure out how its supposed to be updating. should still be useful for weighing the costs of T4.5 stuff. lemme know if stuff's wildly wrong and i'll take a look, otherwise i'll get back to it to finish up in a bit. @azure isle you asked about it before, here you go

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1kt6BWZ-3_-lEIF1nvyOlLvh6F9Nb6aqhLR0HFfcN24k/edit?usp=sharing

[livid fossil]

That is part of food for adventure tomb

Why do you want to destroy it

If it can’t be selled or dismantled you drag and drop out of inventory

[azure isle]

there are too many numbers i cant understand anything

[fervent mauve]

honed to 1710 on a rat alt my weapon is +18 adv 20 do i gain noticable difference in combat power if i hone weapon to +20 or adv it to 30?

chatgpt told me to kill myself so it's not very helpful

[jaunty iron]

Cheaper to ah30, and at that ilvl I don't think it matters much in terms of DPS.

[bold geyser]

you make a copy, that lets you change stuff, then you select your region. it sorts a ton of different stuff by cost efficiency, you start at the top of the list and scroll down until you hit something you haven't done yet, and that's your next target for most-efficient upgrade for your char

[mystic sierra]

some of them I already have 100% but seems like I still have mat to craft another one

[azure isle]

ill try after this shipwreck map

[bold geyser]

its a pretty cool sheet i've seen linked a bunch here, all i did was update it to add 4.5 stuff and clean up some formulas (and broke KR)

[livid fossil]

If you don’t need it drag and drop it out of inventory. But make sure you don’t need it anymore before you do that.

If all cooking is done with it then remove it

[lavish mortar]

Ah 30 better

[brisk socket]

is it worth following build guides if my chars are below 1700?

[lavish mortar]

I'd say yes, just ignore ark grid builds for now

[bold geyser]

should still be able to get most of the power out of it

[proper moon]

!honing

[lavish mortar]

?advhoning

[buoyant dock]

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

[rose wren]

the amount of times that command been used, probably should have the info perma somewhere lol

[bold geyser]

just have the bot say it every 5 minutes

[azure isle]

that uh

not healthy

[azure isle]

what do i do with this sheet again

[bold geyser]

file -> make a copy, set your region, then start at the top of the list until you find something your char hasn't done yet

you can check bound for any mats you have infinity of

[azure isle]

idk

i feel like this is context based

[bold geyser]

it is 🙂

[azure isle]

ConfusedAnime

[lavish mortar]

Should be able to set current accessories somewhere i think

[azure isle]

oh

well

mine arent high low

its flat high

CONCERN

[lavish mortar]

Those accs are fine until you want high mids :v

[bold geyser]

on the right side, it assumes you'd be able to sell them though, so you can probably ignore upgrade line and just look at the existing green lines in the list

and those are mid-mids 😄

[azure isle]

what would be an upgrade to mine?

high mid at minimum?

[bold geyser]

high-mids

yeah

[lavish mortar]

High mid or high high

[azure isle]

okay

high high

i have a suggestion

whether its applicable or not is not in my knowledge to decide

make it so the unapplicable upgrades in the list are either hidden or grayed out

yaeThink

[lavish mortar]

Then youd need to enter in a shit ton of character info

[azure isle]

yea too much input would be necessary

what if though

[bold geyser]

makes sense tho 😄

[azure isle]

holy shit im cooking

hear me out

[lavish mortar]

Would be nice
Just unsure if worth, given we cant just import a character

[azure isle]

fetch character data from uwu and suggest upgrades based on the fetched data

[bold geyser]

i mean theres a lot of stuff you just skip over on the sheet cause you already finished it

accs are the same way

[faint cedar]

Acc are such booty upgrades

[bold geyser]

i already suggested on the uwu discord that they flag each statline as a percentile for your bracket

so you can see which category your'e behind on

they have thus far not implemented it 😄

(but yeah, agreed)

[azure isle]

HMMNOTED

[lavish mortar]

Ark grid is what id have to do

But I hate astros..

[bold geyser]

wouldn't mind it if they weren't rng gatekept

but who knows when i'm gonna get more blues and purples to cut

[lavish mortar]

Rng on rng on rng... all weighted against me too

[azure isle]

seems like my first goal would be 17p-20p on chaos
