[deft owl]

no it is, try buying i t off steam

[arctic crane]

that's what I thought at first, but it is on the list of supported countries on the official site

[deft owl]

steam shouldnt give you any issues i dont think?

[fossil lake]

is there sth like amazon.at?

[arctic crane]

yea I think thats what I thin I'll have to do - thanks for answering

[deft owl]

yea its quite possible its amazon domain issues related to your country from buying it directl yoff their site in that case (eg cant buy stuff off hte us site if you're in japan as far as i know)

[arctic crane]

.at gets redirected to .de

[deft owl]

huh, not sure then

[abstract forum]

.at is austria i think

[rancid kraken]

i might be blind, but what is the req for making a guild?
or someone direct me to where that info is?

ty cuties (:

[maiden locust]

can anyone tell me how the 6 cap alt is done?

like what i mean is, are you suppose to have more than 6 alts in order to abuse the rest system?

[spiral thistle]

No more than a total of 6 characters can earn gold per server. All there is to it.

[raw atlas]

In the char select window can u sort ur characters

[spiral thistle]

Nothing. Just get to a certain point in the game and pay some silver. It's super early.

[maiden locust]

i understand but can the alts use rest bonuses to earn more than regular amount of gold?

[spiral thistle]

Rest has nothing to do with gold.

[maiden locust]

ahhhh okay now that makes sense

is it advisable to have more than 6 alts for material farming then?

[spiral thistle]

Well, I guess in one sense because you earn badges used to trade for gold boxes/pouches from dailies slower.

[maiden locust]

each alt takes 30 minutes i suppose?

[spiral thistle]

I mean maintikg thwt amount of alts take time. If you use rest system on all of them you'd spend maybe around 30-60min each day for dailies depending on how well your Guardians go. Then you got weekly on top of all dailies that has to be done.

At start its only Abyss Dungeon and weekly Una's. Then it adds weekly Guardians x3 and later challenge Abyss. Even further down the line Abyss Raid and Legion raids.

[maiden locust]

so if you have around 4 hours a day to kill

how many alts would you recommend

[north meteor]

Hey is there a way to connect lost ark with twitch?

[delicate meteor]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLgmcoNfcfA

[spiral thistle]

Dno. There is a million 1-time things to complete at start. Maintaining alts take away from that. If you've completed everything 4hr I'd say 1 main and 2 alts is comfortable low pressure.

[maiden locust]

ahh dam okay

[plain cape]

Hi is there a link or something that shows what we get with each pack ? I don't want to regret later not getting a founder skin or smthg

[deft owl]

the website?

[delicate meteor]

https://www.playlostark.com/en-us/shop

[plain cape]

It doesn't show what the skin actually looks like last I checked

[deft owl]

uhh doesnt the model viewing site show that

[maiden locust]

https://lostarkive.com/model-viewer/

[deft owl]

yea that

[plain cape]

Awesome thanks !

[spiral thistle]

If you do rest you need less time ofc and got more time to do all other random stuff around. But I mean 2nd Awakening quest takes 5-6hr. Island quests for their rewards take between 10min up to almost 3hr and there are 90+ islands

Not even factoring in any timed content or possible events

[wise pecan]

Is there any limit to how many alts you can do dailies on?

[deft owl]

6

[half carbon]

what is the class with most mobility in/out combat?

[spiral thistle]

No

[deft owl]

🤔 does the gold just stop at 6 then?

[delicate meteor]

You can still do dailies

[spiral thistle]

No dailies award gold except rng in chaos dungeon

[delicate meteor]

gunner, assassin, fighter

[deft owl]

then where the heck did i get the number 6 from

[maiden locust]

I dont understand, if I play 7 classes do I get punished for playing that much?

[delicate meteor]

6 character limit to receive gold on

[deft owl]

oh

[half carbon]

and subclasses?

[delicate meteor]

I'm not sure if there's a difference in mobility, sorry.

[half carbon]

for example, i am a gunsliger, have 3 skills to evade enemy skills or move faster

[spiral thistle]

"Yes", e.g your 7th character wouldn't receive any gold from Abyss but all other trwards.

[delicate meteor]

If you want more gold, you make another account, past 6 active characters you play.

[maiden locust]

I see now, thanks

[spiral thistle]

They just have a cap for gaining gold to avoid inflating prices on blue crystals and AH because casual players can't keep up with the costs.

[deft owl]

idk if you have the ability to edit that script for the daily checklist you hav e in your doc, but its missing some of the classes, are you able to fix that? 🤔

[delicate meteor]

I think every subclass of the 3 has 3 skills at the very least that makes your character move.

[half carbon]

ah cool

[maiden locust]

and we get 6 character slots at start, correct?

[delicate meteor]

Not sure about others, but scrapper can dash twice with space.

[lilac stag]

Can everyone in the server kill the mobs while I’m doing main quest?

[spiral thistle]

It's only missing Sorc and you can use summoner as placeholder.

[delicate meteor]

Yep

[deft owl]

fair enough

[lilac stag]

So let’s say the mission says I need to kill 20 mobs, I have to wait for everyone to leave so I can kill them?

[delicate meteor]

If mobs die before you hit them, yes

[lilac stag]

Oh sadge, thanks

[rancid kraken]

ty babe

[delicate meteor]

Same goes for things you need to pick up.

[lilac stag]

Oh ok thank you very much

[delicate meteor]

There are channels, so keep that in mind when leveling. If an objective is missing, swap channels.

[spiral thistle]

There is channel system. If it's crowded just move channel

[lilac stag]

Oh ok makes sense thanks

Like inside Kadan we have several other channels is that it?

[spiral thistle]

Every map has channels unless instanced area.

Timed islands gets instanced mostly afaik

[lilac stag]

Ok thanks for the info

[north meteor]

L

[rain meadow]

can you mix/match outfits?

[spiral thistle]

Yes, unless it's a cosmetic that takes up multiple slots ofc

[rain meadow]

how many total slots are there? head chest legs shoes? 4?

[spiral thistle]

Head 2,chest,legs,weapon

[rain meadow]

2 for head? oh

[spiral thistle]

Yeah can have like glasses and earrings or w/e. I'm not into avatar items so don't know good examples.

[waxen shoal]

i just want to know , what server most sea ppl chose

[rain meadow]

okay that's cool, was more than helpful xD

[delicate meteor]

I know mouth piece and eye piece are separate

[waxen shoal]

is it EU or US

[rain meadow]

NA west would be lower ping, no?

[spiral thistle]

Most likely NA west ye

Australia said they going US west Valtan atm

[rain meadow]

meanwhile im still stuck choosing between east and west sadge

[crisp swift]

Hey ! Are the servers cross servers? Or they are unique

[rain meadow]

!region

[midnight flax]

Cross Server (Region wide)
Raids, Dungeons, Cube, Plat Fields, Auction house, Character name, Boss Rush, PVP arenas

Server Specific
Guilds, Friends (list), Islands, Open world, Strongholds (cross in KR), GvG, Life skills (professions), Unranked Arena Premades (queue as party, this is cross server in KR)

Nothing is Cross Region

[crisp swift]

Well thanks

[waxen shoal]

oh yeah i guess US west it is

i have around 200 ish ping to US west

sad SEA life man

[muted chasm]

are there like expensive to build and maintain classes in LA?

[rain meadow]

at least you don't have to choose between east/west

[spiral thistle]

In T1 and T2 no. It goes up substantially in T3

[waxen shoal]

based on ping , im picking west just because its lower ping

[muted chasm]

are there specific classes that are really like high maintenance

[waxen shoal]

[muted chasm]

coz im going casual i dont wanna use some of those classes if there are

[raven monolith]

Hey. New here. Question. Coming from game like wow where the end raids can take couple of hours to clear is it anything like this in LA? Or is it shorter and no trash mobs on your way to the boss?

[cedar wharf]

There are some cheaper classes, like Support, Demonic and Scout

[spiral thistle]

Dps classes with only popular dps engravings that also spec would all be higher end. Tbh this isn't such a big issue that I would worry about it if you enjoy a class even as casual.

[muted chasm]

can you compare like zerker and sorc and which one is like cheaper

[muted chasm]

i see

[delicate meteor]

There are no trash mobs, but if you wipe...

[half carbon]

anyone knows where to do this quest?

dunno how to reach this

[cedar wharf]

Both are mainstream dps so they are both just as expensive

[muted chasm]

thanks a lot dude

[delicate meteor]

@raven monolith check this full raid video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GqyVwsCTCE

[cedar wharf]

Only Support and classes with a transformation can save some cash

[spiral thistle]

Not entirely true. You have Blue Gunlancer which is cheaper too

[delicate meteor]

you go downstairs in cathedral or something

[cedar wharf]

What gems are they using? Or do they save cash on the engravings?

[half carbon]

u know where? can't find xd

[delicate meteor]

on the left with yellow !

with stairs icon

[spiral thistle]

Gems isn't the big cost initially anyway, engravings are and they use cheaper ones like Barricade after Grudge. At the point where you would start paying for gems is mid to late T3 that we don't have on launch anyway

[half carbon]

ahhh ty

[raven monolith]

Thanks.

[half carbon]

lmao i'm blind

[simple mesa]

hey guys 🙂 will the platinum package mount be available in the shop or is it not available again after launch?

[muted chasm]

I think its not available after the official release on 11

[trim void]

Mount and pet are highly unlikely to ever be in the cash store, the plat specific avatars are possible

[delicate meteor]

It's possible they bring it back for 'limited time' for like anniversary or something, but don't put your hopes up.

[maiden locust]

does attack speed affect cast?

[delicate meteor]

Agility does, I believe?

[simple mesa]

noice, ty ty

[simple mesa]

Hey, when you say Avatar, what're you referencing to? 🙂

[polar hearth]

Top left area where you see the staircase

[half carbon]

yea ty

[trim void]

Costumes/skins, they are called avatars in Lost Ark

[fossil sonnet]

is there a guide on wtf you do post 50 now t3 is coming on release?

[rain meadow]

random question, is there ingame voice chat for party? or are we all going to be in our own discord calls later? lol

[trim void]

They have added ingame voice for our version

[delicate meteor]

Quite a few, want written or video?

[fossil sonnet]

both will do thanks

[delicate meteor]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1SiMzUoGkXdQEZ6l6pYB_EUBbS-Ri2XvuHU0aohoKNgk/edit

video is linked in the doc

[spiral thistle]

A bit tiny and not really explaining everything. You got my release plan in #info-dump if you want to look at more sources @fossil sonnet

[fossil sonnet]

ok sweet thanks guys

[delicate meteor]

Just one of the many I've saved

[spiral thistle]

Still need to take 1hr today and compile all 1-time gold awards for mine today

[pale cypress]

isnt that already wrong?

says 1 char needs to be leveled to max for one char getting boosted

[delicate meteor]

how is that wrong?

[deft owl]

isnt the max 60

[pale cypress]

you only need one char at n.vern to "max" 12 alts up to n. vern

[delicate meteor]

people call 50 max

[subtle steeple]

50 is softcap. 60 from what i understand will take like 3 months to get to

[delicate meteor]

more or less

[delicate meteor]

provide source?

[fossil lake]

kr server

but we dont know if it's the same for west

[delicate meteor]

exactly, unconfirmed

[pale cypress]

yes but its rather bad to take something which isnt true at all over something which already works somewwhere like that

[misty tree]

You only need to level 1 character manually to 50

[fossil lake]

i hope it stays the same

i hate leveling

[pale cypress]

i just wanted to state that this part is wrong (for now) and you should adress it in your guide (if its yours)

[delicate meteor]

It's not

[pale cypress]

sure whatever

[paper aurora]

Guys, does someone play with 15.6" laptop screen here ?

[hollow turret]

Is there a good guide for which rapport vendors to focus on first?

[spiral thistle]

Just finished this and just a small dump because results where a bit surprising.

920g

Gold obtained from Guide quests Orange/Purple/Yellow/Chain:
700g

Gold obtained from island quests or on islands Yellow/Chain/Purple:
1240g

Gold obtained from rapport level rewards (not quests and only eastern part of map):
9300g (The amount of rapport points needed for ALL of this is INSANE and is going to take months)

These will 100% not align with what you can get. Some rewards might not be the same and I might have missed something or added up things wrong but here you have an indication.```

[fossil lake]

that already includes guardian quests?

[spiral thistle]

@maiden locust It's not really what you asked for but the guide quests and scattered gold rewards should put you at 600g. Just note that you'll be broke too if you spend it.

[spiral thistle]

This is without any Guardian kill quests that some earn you a bit of gold too.

[kindred token]

We need to see if abyss dungeon give gold like the ptr

[spiral thistle]

Ofc it does

[lament mural]

Is it hard to get the full demonic Impulse?

[spiral thistle]

Not in the slightest. There are tons of 1-time rewards at the start that covers at the very minimum full x2 class and full x2 non class

[lament mural]

Damn

i wanna basically play the transform demon build

But ppl said i need t3

[spiral thistle]

Demon is gimped outside T3 because of low stats. You can still play it if you really want but it's definitely not as good as human in T1 and T2

[lament mural]

i see

Thank you

So once im lvl 50

i can get to t3?

or how does it work

[fossil lake]

that will take some time

https://papunika.com/growth-guide/

[spiral thistle]

You increase your ilvl once you are Lv50. T3 entry level is i1100

[lament mural]

so i need gear score 1100

then i can get the demonic impulse stuff lvl 3

[fossil lake]

u can get engravings before that

but its not really worth to worry about engraving too much in t1/t2 because u go through the content so fast anyway

[spiral thistle]

You should read up on the game in general. Check out #guides-and-info

[quiet ore]

Hello. Do we know if we can use space bar or the "_" in character names ?

[spiral thistle]

No

[quiet ore]

Damn, any specific list with the restrictions anywhere ?

Thanks anyway

[fossil lake]

no XxXPussy_DestroyerXxX allowed 😄

[quiet ore]

Yeah but not "Bob Robertson" or any character with a first and last name ?

[spiral thistle]

No

Only 1 capital letter allowed and it's forced first letter

[lament mural]

https://gyazo.com/1dbab3c580e4ddbfb4346eb36b6a361f

whats that card called

[carmine salmon]

how do i time the sandstorm for Taitalos?

i see the wipe coming, but i cant get the buff fast enough

gunlancer btw lmao

[spiral thistle]

After he does the triple crack slam in the ground he does 2-3 attacks depending on how long each attack takes and then it's time

[carmine salmon]

yeah, i am also aware he may do 2-3 attacks

when i see the red mist coming i am always too late to get the buff

i even hover around the sandstorm and stop hitting Taitalos but it always fails to proc the buff

[spiral thistle]

You are just too late getting into the sandstorm. You need x3 stacks and you can pre-emptively get 1-2 stacks before instead of needing all 3 when he starts charging the AoE

[carmine salmon]

yeah i know

lol

[frozen storm]

@spiral thistle I'm reading your LA release plan google doc, it says there was an update where you no longer need side quests from arthetine to hit 50, is this a post-beta thing?

[spiral thistle]

It's a QoL update that is both on KR and RU. From the looks of leaked images from PTR it's highly likely we have this in our version at launch.

[kindred token]

wei

[hoary parrot]

What class is most like crusader from dragon nest? I'm thinking of going gunlancer

[lament mural]

@kindred tokenis it true that this card is broken? and you should look early for him

[kindred token]

1 card alone doesn't do anything

you should work on history of the ark as early as possible(light set /esther) yes

but it nothing you should be too fuss about just play the game you will understand later

that card set take months if not year

rushing it early doesn't matter cuz you dont know how to rush it anyway it RNG

[spiral thistle]

Yeah card sets are super long term game and nothing to concern yourself with early on

[willow rapids]

Is there any "What you should/shouldn't spend your Founder pack Royal Crystals on" related info/guides to look at, curious on what the opinions would be for these

[spiral thistle]

Ship skin is my recommendation as something to invest RC into because at start you will be using boat a lot and it adds a bit of speed

[willow rapids]

Noted, is there multiple skins that have different stats? Or are all the skins in the shop identical besides how it looks

[spiral thistle]

Looks differ and different variations of the sets give different virtue stats

[willow rapids]

But all have the increased speed over the default atleast?

[wise pecan]

Is the guild member limit character or account based?

[noble coral]

Guild member limit is based on the guild level

[spiral thistle]

Ah you meant boat skins. Yeah those have same +speed values I think

[wise pecan]

I mean, capping your guild member limit, is that done with characters or with accounts?

[spiral thistle]

My other reply was for normal avatar/cosmetics

[wise pecan]

1 account, 5 characters, in the same guild, does that count as 1 or 5 guild members?

[noble coral]

Think it's 5 different slots

[spiral thistle]

Guild membership is per character, not account. Guilds usually have alt guilds

[willow rapids]

Ah yea, that's cool then so I can just see what boat skin I prefer. I knew about the outfit stats yea

Besides the boat skin then is there anything else I should look at being worth getting, what about stuff in the rotation shop?

I'm getting all the tiers so I'll have 12k to work with at the start

[spiral thistle]

Mari shop is Blue Crystals, not Royal

[willow rapids]

I can convert, that's fine

Unless it's not worth converting to then I won't

[noble coral]

I think it doesn't? But we'll see at release

[willow rapids]

I thought you could buy Blue crystal packs using RC

In the Beta you could anyway

[noble coral]

I meant it's not worth it

[willow rapids]

Oh right

[kindred token]

it always worth it to buy blue crystal using royal

[willow rapids]

If I don't have anything else to use RC on right

[kindred token]

if your objective is what you want to buy using blue crystal

[noble coral]

Huh... Thanks for clarifying. I thought the conversion was worse than straight buying blues

[kindred token]

huh

[willow rapids]

Well I won't have gold to buy blues at the start of the game of course

[kindred token]

buying straight blue mean what using gold?

[noble coral]

I was under the impression you can buy blue cystals with money 🤔

[kindred token]

no

[willow rapids]

That's the Royal ones

[kindred token]

it always royal then you use royal to buy blue with cash shop bundle

[noble coral]

My bad then. Sorry for misinformation

[compact creek]

Is the Founders Skin from the platin pack just for one or for all charakters?

[willow rapids]

It's one character

[lapis canyon]

The Northern Lawmaker Avatar is just one class or subclass?

[noble coral]

The one you redeem the pack on (It'll be in your mail)

[lapis canyon]

I think that's what @compact creek was asking.

[noble coral]

It's per character, not class

[compact creek]

So on platin you have to take both Skin packages for one class?

[spiral thistle]

If you want yes

Lawmaker just doesn't have unique advanced class skins beside weapons. Rest is the same for entire base class

[noble coral]

You can take both on the same character, or on different ones. You choose

[lilac stag]

Is dmg holy knight viable for end game solo content?

[compact creek]

ah, nice, thanks guys

[carmine salmon]

i think u need it for chaos dungeon only

[lapis canyon]

Can you trade the advanced class avatar right away?

[willow rapids]

Can't trade it at all

[carmine salmon]

raids need support holy knight

[willow rapids]

Between players I mean

[lapis canyon]

Okay, just within account is possible?

[noble coral]

Yes, all classes are...

[willow rapids]

Believe it's character bound

[lapis canyon]

Bummer.

[willow rapids]

The Platinum skin is atleast, if Lawmaker can be used on all of the same main class then that's server bound

[noble coral]

It is indeed character bound - So be careful on which character you open it

[willow rapids]

But Plat is different depending on the class

[kindred token]

if we really talk end game like ridge(way of power)/tier 3 tower then supports class will need a proper dps engraving accessory to actually pull it off otherwise they have to be really overgeared

but those content are 1 and done type of content you dont ever do it twice

[lapis canyon]

It's really annoying they haven't made this CRYSTAL CLEAR.

So both avatars are CHARACTER bound?

[noble coral]

Think that the pet is not 🤔

Skins are tho

[lapis canyon]

@noble coral Meant avatars, soz

[verbal knot]

How bad is to play whit 140 ~ 160 ping ?

[noble coral]

Then yes - I think they have made it fairly clear and added a warning in their announcements to be careful which character you redeem it on

[lapis canyon]

Have they made any official statement on what is character-bound vs not?

Okay thanks.

[noble coral]

Depends. If you're talking PVE - Not a bother.... PVP not really either, but it can effect you

[lapis canyon]

The items will say it in their description too yes?

[kindred token]

yes

[noble coral]

I am not sure. I suspect they'll be in your mailbox so I'd imagine you can read it all before claiming

[kindred token]

you can pretty much preview them before open them

[lapis canyon]

Now here's the real question. Can the Northern Lawmaker be claimed BEFORE choosing an advanced class?

[noble coral]

No - You choose an advanced class as part of your character creation and the mailbox won't be available at that time if I remember correctly

[willow rapids]

If you can access your expedition vault before choosing it then probably, but I thought that was available after the Prologue

[lapis canyon]

Ah, this is good information.

[willow rapids]

Or atleast, the start of the prologue

[noble coral]

After 🙂

[willow rapids]

Since that's when you can access the shop and rest of the UI

[lapis canyon]

So there's no "wait until Destroyer comes out to claim the Northern Lawmaker".

😦

[kindred token]

this is a vault you can get

[tall mulch]

Sorry if it's been mentioned some where before, But will the skins/avatars from the Founders pack be able to be sold say, 2 years from now?

[kindred token]

any character can access that you dont need to claim it if you dont want to

[willow rapids]

They're bound to you, can't sell them

[tall mulch]

ty

[noble coral]

No - They are bound as soon as you pick them up with your character to the 1 character

[lapis canyon]

Do they have an expiration date?

[willow rapids]

It means I'll be stuck with a spare cat pet that I can't do anything with

[kindred token]

no

[tall mulch]

oh so they are bound to a single character too? Thats rough. So if I decide to change toons, that avatar is lost to me?

[kindred token]

northern law will be account bound you can switch between the class(if it the same warrior class)

[lapis canyon]

So based on what you know, do you think it'd be possible to wait for a future class, say Scouter, and then redeem the Northern Lawmaker on that?

[noble coral]

As soon as you claim it from your vault - It'll be bound to the character that claimed it, yes

[tall mulch]

bummer

[noble coral]

No - They said that the skins will be available only for the characters at launch

[lapis canyon]

What if you left Northern Lawmaker the Vault until the Scouter comes out.

[kindred token]

northern will be hunter/female huntere/mage/assassin/male fighters/femal efighters

[lapis canyon]

See, this shet just doesn't make sense. Northern Lawmaker only has class-specific designs. Why lock it to the subclasses now.

[kindred token]

it never sub class specific except weapon

[woven moth]

Its only availabe for current 15 sub classes(for plat/founder skin)

[kindred token]

the hunters literally share the same model

[noble coral]

^ This

[kindred token]

same with warrior

[lapis canyon]

Exactly.

[noble coral]

Same with all of them 😄

[lapis canyon]

So it's not like they have to come up with a new design for Destroyer.

[kindred token]

they can't

[lapis canyon]

Why not allow us to redeem it on a future Destroyer?

[kindred token]

because that not how class skins work

because weapon?

[noble coral]

I think it comes with a weapon skin and not only armor

[lapis canyon]

Oh really?

[woven moth]

It does

[lapis canyon]

Okay, now it makes more sense. Thank you both for clearing that up.

I thought it was just the Armor Avatar, no weapon.

[kindred token]

but as i said you SHOULD be able to swap armor between same classes(that my guess cuz RU and how KR work)

as you can see here bottom left

[noble coral]

I was sure it was character bound 🤔

[kindred token]

@noble coral nah look at my helmet

'

it in account warehouse

but ye NA EU might be different who know

[noble coral]

Yeah fair.... I mean it would be great if you can

[lapis canyon]

It would be AMAZING if you can.

[kindred token]

this set look better than northern on warriors anyway

[lapis canyon]

Is it obvious in the item description whether it is account/character?

[noble coral]

I suspect that future skins from the shop are gonna be similar but the founder's pack ones are not? At least from all they have said in the press.... Treat it as such for now, and if it's different later down the line - You won

[kindred token]

it is obvious i show you example

[lapis canyon]

What is this skin?

[kindred token]

it limited cash shop skin 1st anniversary or 2nd of korea iirc

and it release in RU

so ye people that like northern it nice but this game have a lot of avatar not like you guys miss anything

[noble coral]

True

[kindred token]

but ye if it char bound it will be dumb

because every premium avatar before them are account bound

example pretty much

it can say untradable but it account bound so if i want to swap to other gunslinger i can

[lapis canyon]

Thank you.

[kindred token]

even the ones from chaos dungeon drop are account bound

so ye just check if it account boundn or not if it is account bound just claim it on warrior class if you want to plan for destroyer, hunters class if you plan on scouter

you will not get weapon avatar that about it

and as i said always check if it account bound or not

example

so ye you wont mess it up if you actually be careful with it

[willow rapids]

Thanks for all this info

[ripe elk]

any1 know what EU server will be mostly english speaking at launch? Seems like Kadan but i am not sure

[delicate meteor]

kadan and zinner

[ripe elk]

nice so i was correct, ty

[carmine summit]

zinner now more % than kadan lol wut?

[ripe elk]

i heard of zinner also. most of the content creators are going there right?

[hallow ginkgo]

As how many players is this game recommended playing for complete beginners leveling through the main story? I was wondering if 4 people are 2 much

[delicate meteor]

Recommended to solo

[lapis canyon]

Do we have a list of which servers streamers or going to?

[low stag]

is there any thing like ilvl sync for t1/t2 content? or will i just steamroll it when I have t3 gear

[delicate meteor]

steamroll, except normalized content (hell mode, not sure when is the first one)

[low stag]

hell mode is available for t1/t2?

[delicate meteor]

that's why bus driving is a thing, you higher a t3 geared dude to kill boss in 1min

[delicate meteor]

I do not know

[subtle steeple]

do you even want to do T1 or T2 raids if you are in T3 ?

[delicate meteor]

for boosting, yea 🙂

[subtle steeple]

raid lockouts are per tier ? or overall

[delicate meteor]

also if you want to farm ugh, skill books, I believe

[rancid kraken]

!region

[midnight flax]

Cross Server (Region wide)
Raids, Dungeons, Cube, Plat Fields, Auction house, Character name, Boss Rush, PVP arenas

Server Specific
Guilds, Friends (list), Islands, Open world, Strongholds (cross in KR), GvG, Life skills (professions), Unranked Arena Premades (queue as party, this is cross server in KR)

Nothing is Cross Region

[rancid kraken]

@fathom wing

[delicate meteor]

raid lockouts are individual, I believe

[kindred token]

no hell mode the only thing that similar to it is mythic ashates

[delicate meteor]

yea maybe hell mode is t3 and onwards

[kindred token]

hell mode is only from legion onwards sadly

otherwise it just equalize harmony is what people call it in ru(gear set effect and ilvl dont work,tripod equalize and main stat get cut by significant amount, HP equalize,gem and cards doesn't work, but engraving work)

it like equalize but not really kinda thing

[delicate meteor]

I see

[subtle roost]

How quickly do guilds level up?

30 people is not a lot

[spiral thistle]

Considering it'll take until i960 until there even exist 8man raid 30 people is a lot

[subtle roost]

subjective

[lapis canyon]

What things are cross server (within regions)?

[half carbon]

can i swap lost ark between monitors in game?

[spiral thistle]

It was just posted like 7 posts ago?

[kindred token]

pinned

[lapis canyon]

Thank you.

What is not mentioned: I assume you cannot jump between servers with 1 character?

[kindred token]

you can't

[willow rapids]

Fogel, for those who don't have any software to change key binds outside of the game. Do you know if we can use an Auto key presser strictly to press G ingame? Or anyone else if you know

[spiral thistle]

Dno. Don't really see the need for it personally. It's slightly annoying when you level and do lots of quests but outside that not that bad.

[echo ore]

I'm sure this has been asked 100 times but is there a website that has the armor sets or costumes for all the classes? Can't seem to find one

[sand breach]

You mean as in the platinum skins for each class or just like standard cash shop? Because I don’t think there is a preview of it, Cus id like to see if there was one

[gray laurel]

hey someone can help me ?

[willow rapids]

Was only asking since most of my time is going to be spent questing and doing levels for the beginning, I'm not rushing to level 50 I'm gonna be doing a lot of side stuff and pressing G was always awkward for how I rest my hands

[spiral thistle]

You can use LMB to replace G if you prefer

[echo ore]

Yeah just like armor sets you can obtain in game and stuff like that. From raids or whatever

[gray laurel]

i saw SywO Video and he said there you can play from not allowed Region with EU steam. you think i will still need VPN ?

[spiral thistle]

Even if the game says press G pressing LMB works too

[sand breach]

I’m unsure then as we have a different game version than KR and RU so I’m unsure if there will be a difference in what we get

[tidal birch]

Anyone know what to do to craft spare parts at the estate?

[gray laurel]

help overhere 😄

[burnt hearth]

Hello guys, out of the blue question: can we customize our character’s body shape or I get to play with a hulk warrior?

[boreal oyster]

Fogelstrom — Yesterday at 7:23 PM
Doing every 3rd day is 33% less materials but takes 66% less time. I would only use this method if you have 5-6 alts or if you have alts but limited time. I wouldn't use this on my main ever.

[cedar wharf]

Only shoulders up

[gray laurel]

help meeeeeeeeeee

[deft owl]

vpn is likely bannable.

i believe hte lost ark site(or was it amazon game services) said something about that and steam has the same policy?

[maiden locust]

Vpn is against tos, but it wont be enforced since its steam we are talking about it

[deft owl]

still a use at your own risk thing

[cedar wharf]

We don’t know and don’t want to speculate or spread misinformation and get misquoted

[versed oak]

is a 1920x1080 monitor still good? i keep hearing that i need a wwide screen >.<

[burnt hearth]

That’s something ty

[deft owl]

its fine

[gray laurel]

oh ok...

[boreal oyster]

you can customize the skin tone too...

[cedar wharf]

You can force 21:9 in game for PvP

[versed oak]

but do i have to?

[maiden locust]

Its a statement they had to legally make, AGS is literwlly supporting a content creator thats using a vpn to play our release. VPNs will be fine

[burnt hearth]

It’s just i don’t like bulky chars

[cedar wharf]

Yea but color is not shaped

[gray laurel]

but if i see the game in EU STEAM its ok ? or i still need VPN ?

[maiden locust]

What country u @

[cedar wharf]

Play a nice waifu

[gray laurel]

Israel

[deft owl]

ok, well im not gonna go saying vpn is ok cause we havent seen it actually confirmed as words by staff ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[burnt hearth]

You got a youtube link where this is shown? (The shoulder thing i mean)

[cedar wharf]

Oh with shoulder up I mean the face and hair

[maiden locust]

Theyll never say that for legal reasons like i just said, officially theyre against it but noone cares actually

[burnt hearth]

Ahh ok mb

[deft owl]

then yea again: im not gonna say go ahead and use it lmao

[gray laurel]

but do i need VPN if i see the game on my EU steam ?

[deft owl]

its just gonna be: use at your own risk thing, is what ill say

[maiden locust]

Whats ur country

[deft owl]

he said israel

[gray laurel]

Israel. middle East

[maiden locust]

Uhhhh

Not sure lemme check

[gray laurel]

in my Steam region i cant see the game but in my EU steam i can see the game

[deft owl]

latter is cause its eu lmao

[gray laurel]

on store i mean

[deft owl]

eu is supported, israel is not

[gray laurel]

so if isee it on steam i will be Fine ?

[deft owl]

we dont know for sure if you'll need one

[gray laurel]

or they will see my IP

[deft owl]

cause you arent technically in the eu

[halcyon snow]

How "reactive" does deathblade gameplay feel like? I like to play very fast and responsive characters and i was settled on blade but i read on some posts that blade has many "locked-casting" or "charge" skills and that it actually feels static to play and has animation locks.

[maiden locust]

Ive been using a vpn for steam for like 3 years now and scammed steam out of thousands of dollars and they dont do shit about it dw

[deft owl]

kay, good for you, im still not saying its officially supported and will continue saying what i just said.

[maiden locust]

It will never be officially supported

[deft owl]

its the same thing as other third party crap in other mmos, use at your own risk

[gray laurel]

the question is if i need vpn or not . do i can play the game without if i see the game on store...

[deft owl]

exactly , so im not gonna claim it as such or say they 100% wont be banned for it

[cedar wharf]

Blade uses some charge skills, how it feels is subjective so I don’t want to answer that. It has a lot of mobility that makes it feel good tho but you will need to charge some of your best nukes

[maiden locust]

If isreal isnt supported ull have to use a von

Vpn*

[gray laurel]

so its not matter if i see the game on my EU steam ?

if i try log in without vpn he will just reject me right ? then i can active VPN its will work ?

[maiden locust]

I cant say for sure, try without a vpn and see how it goes ig

[gray laurel]

DEAL

[wise pecan]

Anyone knows about the guild ranks? Do we only have 1 deputy? Is there an officer rank too?

[maiden locust]

Guild master, deputy, officer, member, new member is the order

[wise pecan]

Great, thanks 👍

[maiden locust]

Nei

[cedar wharf]

No theres no animation canceling, there are some tripods that increase animation speed and an engraving that blade uses takes that reduces the channel time for charge skills edit: some im in the train typing pepega stuff

[maiden locust]

Its not a mechanically intensive game on the class level, things outside is what makes it mechanically intensive ull see

[tame trout]

Hi. Please which eu server chould africans players choose, to prevent hight latency ? thanks

[maiden locust]

Things like DE which is considered the hardest class on release is still easier mechanically then alot of other mmos

[maiden locust]

All eu servwre are in frankfurt so it doesnt matter

[cedar wharf]

I would say it’s not look at Wardancer, Taijutsu Infighter/Scrapper or Gunslinger

[tame trout]

Ok. Thanks

[misty swan]

get on the russian client

[maiden locust]

Ye id say martial arts classes are the most reactive ones

[misty swan]

test it out

[maiden locust]

You can try it but its not a good mirror to see how it will play in endgame

[cedar wharf]

To add to that, Wardancer can buff attack and movement speed which will make it feel really nice. Also look at the stats each build picks, Swiftness reduces cooldowns and increases movement speed which helps with a fluid high apm feeling

[maiden locust]

The testing at class selection is beyond limiting and doesnt do most classes justice

[halcyon snow]

i see

[maiden locust]

Once u reach level 30 u unlock training where u can try all endgsme builds to see how it will actually play

[halcyon snow]

i will try it out then thanks

[maiden locust]

No, you choose a subclass at level 1

Im talking about at level 30

Yepp

Just its only you can test stuff out for your subclass, not other ones

[halcyon snow]

thanks everyone for the help

[maiden locust]

Nppp

[subtle steeple]

when do you guys think we will get the launch patch notes, monday ?

[maiden locust]

Prolly monday/sunday would be my guess

[cedar wharf]

We can only speculate better topic for #lost-ark-discussions

[vestal cargo]

Do we get guild territory on release?

[cedar wharf]

No patch later confirmed by Roxx also GvG is. Or really Guild territory

[willow rapids]

On this Legends event, if I'm going to be playing in the EU will I only be able to claim the Twitch drops to use from streamers in the EU Team, or can I watch/claim the ones from NA team and still use them

[short notch]

Hey, me and my group of friends want to do mostly PvE content, and we have read online that the server "Kadan" (or Chadan) is going to be the established PvP server for premade grouping reasons, my question is:
Will the fact that most PvP players will reside in Kadan affect our farming/leveling/grinding in the open world (due to open world pvp?) or some form of player killing?

[molten wraith]

So how do you get your first research in the estate? For me the laboratory is empty ...

[maiden locust]

Im wondering this too, since EU has 0 chance to win

[vestal cargo]

Thank you guys

[willow rapids]

Yup, especially when some of the people in the team admit to not even wanting to play Lost Ark

[vestal cargo]

Also, is there a way to set up alliances and have a shared chat between 3 guilds and stuff ?

[spiral thistle]

Why would EU have 0 chance to win when they have the exact same amount time to play? It's only about completing the objectives which are all pretty stupid and easy anyway

[willow rapids]

Can't complete em if the streamers won't play though

[short notch]

my question drowned

[maiden locust]

Have u seen how stacked NA is

[cedar wharf]

There is no open world PvP in Lost Ark outside of Rohen which is not in our version yet. That’s only for premade unranked arena and will have no effect on your PvE at all

[stray pumice]

chaos dungeon energy isnt saved 100%, right?

[short notch]

thanks

[willow rapids]

If you find out at all before the event be sure to let me know haha

[spiral thistle]

You have 100/day and doesn't carry over.

[maiden locust]

If you mean rest bonus, u half a bar

U get half a bar*

[stray pumice]

so you pretty much save half of it?

[maiden locust]

Kinda?

But thats only if you dont play

[stray pumice]

yeah sure

what about guardian raids? are they only saved by 50% aswell?

[maiden locust]

U dont save energy, you just get double drops later on

[halcyon snow]

isnt it possible theyll give out the rewards anyway? i can already see what a dumpster fire would happen if eu players didnt get the free rewards for something that was out of their power anyway

i dont think they want drama at launch

[maiden locust]

If you dont play a character for 2 days, a bar will fill up and your next guardian raid will have double drops, 4 days 2 bars etc

[willow rapids]

I'd rather not "hope" that they'll give it out anyway

[wise pecan]

Can you upload your own guild icon, as guild icon for your guild?

[maiden locust]

Man im shit at explaining the rest system, someone else can do a better job im sorry 😭

[cedar wharf]

Regarding this Legends thing, Saintone already said that there will be dynamic events to make sure all regions have a good time.

Also if you look at the objectives there is stuff in there that will take a couple weeks to complete… so it’s not a sprint for 2-3 days

I.e. 100% in two zones

[maiden locust]

1 of the objectives isnt even possible

[willow rapids]

I'm not fussed about it being a sprint I know some of the objectives will take time, but I'd like to atleast have the choice of watching who I want to watch on any of the teams, not strictly the ones for my region

[maiden locust]

How the fuck are u supposed to clear tower of shadow with no battle items

[cedar wharf]

In the end everyone will get everything anyway

[maiden locust]

Someone answer this if they know something I dont

[cedar wharf]

You think they would piss of 2 continents for some shit yellow recolor of a hoverboard

[cedar wharf]

Doesn’t it just say clear 50?

[willow rapids]

Clear 50

[delicate meteor]

is that the tower with floors?

[shrewd ridge]

Dont think its possible with the silence

If its this one

[spiral thistle]

It's just the last tower floor

[willow rapids]

Doesn't say clear all floors, just 50th

[delicate meteor]

Yea I hit a floor on RU with perma silence and was dumb struck wtf to do there

[spiral thistle]

It's just to make it harder so you can't spam Fire Grenades and use like LIghtning Potion and Camp Fire

[maiden locust]

Oh my bad nvm i get it now

[spiral thistle]

Doesn't even matter because they have ages to complete the objectives. They can literally be i900 and do it

[limpid oyster]

can you get class engravings on your accessories?

[delicate meteor]

So how do you clear the floor with silence in it?

[misty tree]

yes

[shrewd ridge]

Pannacle not sure how its written

The one that removes negative effects

[delicate meteor]

A potion right?

[maiden locust]

Its just for floor 50, you can use battle items on other floors. Thays what i gathered from the answers

[shrewd ridge]

Yellow battle item potion ish looking

[delicate meteor]

It never occured to me to use battle items XD

[shrewd ridge]

Except for that floor you can clear any lvl without iirc you just have to learn mechanics on a few 😀

[willow rapids]

Panacea

[delicate meteor]

Yea, I was clearing it easy then hit it and was like 'wat'

[spice atlas]

Any tips for a new player on what and what not to do

[maiden locust]

Have fun

[subtle steeple]

check pinned posts

[spiral thistle]

My release plan in #info-dump has some of that

[spice atlas]

Thanks @subtle steeple

[maiden locust]

This is a super good doc btw big recommend 🙏

[spiral thistle]

The new gold section is a good addition if I say so myself

[subtle steeple]

Guardian Raids are the MHW like bosses that can be solo ? Do you get more rewards if you do them in a party ?

[delicate meteor]

No just takes longer

[maiden locust]

^

A tip for guardian raids, bring flares 👌🏼

[spiral thistle]

And it's definitely harder to do a Guardian solo because it will always be focused on you

[plain thunder]

Hi, before I pick my main class. I've never played the beta and I was wondering how you switch between guns with the gunslinger class? Can you set a specific keybind for a certain gun?

[maiden locust]

Good focus on me boss I dont want you too look at another man ever again

[subtle steeple]

if i'm in a party in the Guardian Raid ,everyone uses 1 ticket to enter, not only the leader ?

[delicate meteor]

you only switch to next or previous gun, can't bind SPECIFIC gun

[maiden locust]

Theres no tickets

Thats for cube and boss rush

[plain thunder]

Hmh 😦 that's sad

[potent shoal]

is it true that the black horse is faster..?

[delicate meteor]

No, red is.

[maiden locust]

No, white is

[delicate meteor]

All mount speeds will soon be normalized

[spice atlas]

Does anyone know of the Direct X update will be available on the play 3 days before release? Or will it be available on release day only

[delicate meteor]

all patches should be applied before headstart

but we don't know

[hushed bone]

Can you cancel your Founder's Pack on Steam to then purchase another one? Haven't found a way to do so

[maiden locust]

Ywah u can refuns it

[delicate meteor]

You have to make a request

[maiden locust]

^^ 99.99 % its granted

[hushed bone]

Is it simply a typical steam refund request? Haven't done a single one yet so will look it up

[delicate meteor]

go to account details, purchase history

[ember nymph]

yes, its very easy to do. I refunded New World after having bought it like 6 months earlier and they didn't give me trouble because the game hadn't been released yet

[delicate meteor]

select the lost ark founders pack

[ember nymph]

glad I dodged that bullet

[potent shoal]

i watched a speedrun guide and the black horse looked really fast *They said its faster as well * but KR version

[young thorn]

Is there another way to get class engraving points besides books?

[maiden locust]

Accessories and ancient gear

[delicate meteor]

only mount quality affects speed (this will soon change)

[potent shoal]

oh so they are removing mount qualities?

[hushed bone]

Just submitted a request, thanks for the help (:

[delicate meteor]

no just normalizing the speed

[maiden locust]

all the starting horses are the same quality to begin with, no horse is faster than the other

[potent shoal]

ok thank you!

[delicate meteor]

https://www.reddit.com/r/lostarkgame/comments/scu5sg/the_126_update_on_the_kr_lost_ark_servers_just/

all mounts are now 500 (in KR)

[potent shoal]

okay so they were just joking about mount color and all of them are increased haha no wonder it looks so fast

[limpid oyster]

I abandoned my awakening quest cause I was confused and idk how to get it back, pls help

[delicate meteor]

will have to check every NPC, it will be on the one you talked to last

[limpid oyster]

I did go to that NPC and still no purple mark

[delicate meteor]

https://lostarkcodex.com/us/quest/4050101/ check every npc from the first one, good luck

[inland stratus]

do i need resonance to do guardian raids?

or abyss

[limpid oyster]

ahh nvm it was the 2nd npc, ty

[delicate meteor]

all requirements are listed when you select a boss

[stray pumice]

abysaal and void dungeon are the same?

[delicate meteor]

don't think so

[stray pumice]

so where are the abyssal dungeons? cant find them in bern

[delicate meteor]

open map type abyss

[misty tree]

Ur in RU right

[stray pumice]

yep

[misty tree]

Its called void dungeons for u right?

[stray pumice]

yeah there is no abyss dungeon

[misty tree]

Its called abyss dungeon in kr

[delicate meteor]

it's called abyss in RU

maybe outdated translator?

[stray pumice]

where is it? ^^

is that the one?

[delicate meteor]

maybe not in bern? I am in yorn I think

let me load up

[half carbon]

where to get next quest after all the guy going full emo?

i have no more quests xd

[delicate meteor]

your log book is empty?

[half carbon]

nvm there is one

but didn't show on the right 😦

how do i get here?

[delicate meteor]

@stray pumice

[lucid grove]

Are we getting the KR pvp changes at launch?

[misty tree]

Click on the borea territory blue portal

[half carbon]

thx

[noble coral]

So the Cube requires special tickets to be able to start it (There's also a similar one for the Stronghold lifeskill area or something).... But you can get it only from Chaos Dungeon? But then the Chaos Dungeon is accessible only twice a day?
How do you consistently get a lot of theses? 😅

[delicate meteor]

you don't, it's supposed to be limited

[noble coral]

🤔 what if I am not good yet and get to lose a lot? No practice mode?

[noble coral]

And when you say limited - How limited are we talking about? It's RNG to get the ticket no?

I thought the cube was part of progression?

[delicate meteor]

it's not, it's another form of farming, I think 2-5 a week

or like 1 ticket a day

There was a video with director getting asked that question, I believe, don't have the source

[maiden locust]

What are the tank classes in this game?

[noble coral]

Isn't the idea of farming is repetitiveness? 😅 Aka - You're supposed to repeat it a lot.... But there's a limiting factor to the number of repeats in the form of the tickets

[noble coral]

There are no Tanks/DPS/Healers in the traditional sense of MMO's

[delicate meteor]

yea but lost ark has a lot of farming activities, by keeping each activity limited you have bigger variaty

[noble coral]

🤔 I didn't think of that. Cheers

[maiden locust]

So anyone can be a tank?

[delicate meteor]

you can farm 24/7 in chaos dungeon, should you choose to

[noble coral]

There is no such a thing as tanking per se

[maiden locust]

Ohh

[delicate meteor]

no, there are no tanks or healers, period, theres only dps and support

[stray pumice]

yeah thats called abyss raids in RU

[maiden locust]

gotcha

[delicate meteor]

That's what I said

[sweet aspen]

How do you find the Ranking leaderboard for pvp? Trying to see who's ranked and on what class and such

[stray pumice]

so abyss raids and dungeons are the same?

[delicate meteor]

A LOT of people will try to sell you gunlancer as tank (or was it warlord) the dude with shield, they are WRONG

[delicate meteor]

no, different things

[noble coral]

Idea is - You can either deal damage to kill things faster, or you can support the team with buffs/shields and debuffs to boss.... The closest thing to a tank is the Gunlancer (But again - It's not a tank... It's just it has a core mechanic revolving around a shield that makes him ignore stagger and damage)

[stray pumice]

yeah but i know where the raids are, im looking for the dungeons :/

[delicate meteor]

lance master uses lance, you got it mixed

[noble coral]

I meant gunlance, sorry

[raw atlas]

Can u sort ur chars in the char selection menu?

[delicate meteor]

they are abyss dungeons, just type abyss in search man

yes, top right

[noble coral]

Fixed 🙂

[stray pumice]

there are none 😄

[delicate meteor]

trials

[stray pumice]

arent those the ones where a lot of bosses spawn?

[delicate meteor]

idk man, guess I'll have to log into game again

[stray pumice]

im just confused because saint wrote that in his guide

and trials start at 960, not 340

[delicate meteor]

that's a void dungeon

[misty tree]

its abyss dungeon

[delicate meteor]

going by the icon

[misty tree]

Like i said its void in RU

its abyss in kr

[stray pumice]

alright ty

[delicate meteor]

just match the icon

[potent shoal]

it'll be abyssal in NA o:

[stray pumice]

yeah i looked at the map ^^

[delicate meteor]

use this menu instead

[stray pumice]

good idea ^^

[lucid grove]

Does this game have a log out timer?

[delicate meteor]

yes, at least afk timer, you can set it yourself

[lucid grove]

So you can chose not to have one?

[delicate meteor]

no the longest is 60min

[kindred token]

please for less confusion look at the icon and not the name

[delicate meteor]

problem was he couldn't find the icon

[stray pumice]

yeah the icon on the map is grey 😅

[obsidian snow]

Eyo, if I’m playing with like 200+ ping which classes should I avoid? PVE only

[versed dove]

gunslinger and deadeye

there might be more

[cold vine]

whats the seat of authority

[delicate meteor]

Any position of power

[delicate meteor]

any warrior subclass will do you good.

[bright quiver]

is it possible to play on the RU server to create a character preset and save it for the NA release? is there a file i can copy or something

[glass crest]

Is there a guide of priority of equipment upgrading? Found guides on how it's done but nothing on priority based on class role

[tawny escarp]

Is there an oficial system requirement table for lost ark?

[delicate meteor]

yes, you just need to change localization in cus file after

[summer gyro]

on steam

[tawny escarp]

Ah got it

[summer gyro]

mostly keeping them about the same enhancement level, weapons can be up to +2 ahead i think

[glass crest]

My question is more on which equipment should be upgraded first as apposed to others, such as helm over chest (or vice versa) for a class such as GL.

[silver yarrow]

Question has been probably asked a million times here, but there's hundreds of guides and tens of content creators. As a person with zero knowledge whatsoever, which yt channels/forums/sites have the best ones (especially for a total beginner) ? I'm looking for a good and reliable source of information, especially about the fundamentals, explaining all the mechanics in game. Can you recommend good ones ?

[cold vine]

no its some kind of solo content kr has

but idk what it is bc googlimg it tells me nothing and it has like 2 other mentions in this server

[subtle steeple]

i've watched Kanon,Sywo,saintone and some others

[remote cargo]

how likely is it that the island "catch-up" quests are available from day one in NA/EU ?

[misty tree]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1oci4R6IkwiQoVhGH8IHwFIS33dVS7hQv2Z-sljRrmcE/preview?pru=AAABfunWIMk*RWz7xVN3nscw2cMMnegYnQ

[silver yarrow]

i'll check them out, thanks

[spiral thistle]

1000% but if they have the same rewards we dot know.

[silver yarrow]

that's huge from a quick look, exactly what i wanted 😄

[fleet beacon]

Hey guys. Just started playing the game on Russian server.
Is there any way of having japanese voiceovers while playing the russian client?
I don't really like russian voiceovers 😦

[misty swan]

endure it for 4 days ❤️

[fleet beacon]

I hoped it was a simple download of files like english patch is 😦

[misty swan]

enlgish patch is still russian voiceovers

[fleet beacon]

Yeah, i know

[misty swan]

😦 srry mate

[fleet beacon]

Btw i have to wait for 7 more days before it goes out f2p right?

[remote cargo]

yes

[fleet beacon]

I am sad that i can't find japanese voice pack to download 😦

I would maybe even prefer it to english at some point

Their voice acting industry is on another level

[tidal birch]

I don't see any research to add spare parts to the workshop. Anyone know how to do that?

[cedar wharf]

There was an option in the past but it got removed, you can’t just replace the files anymore. Licensing reasons: SG owns KR voices, JP publisher JP and RU publisher RU

[cerulean siren]

I have a question for everyone; when I made my Steam account way back when, I lived in NA so my Steam storefront is still NA as well, even though I love in Europe now. If I download/buy LA using this storefront, will I be forced onto NA servers, or will it put me onto EU based on my ping? Not sure if I can change between the two regions in game or something.

[delicate meteor]

You are not bound to region in amazon release

[cedar wharf]

Roxx said it suggests a region based on ping but you can change

[cerulean siren]

Oooh sweet thank you!

[fleet beacon]

:(

[remote forge]

hey guys, i would like to buy the founder's pack but i'm region locked. anyone found a solution to this?

[delicate meteor]

Korean voice acting is decent man, better than nothing.

[delicate meteor]

new account and vpn, it's bannable

[fleet beacon]

I can download korean voices?

[delicate meteor]

yea

[remote forge]

is it really? where did you get this info from?

[fleet beacon]

They work on russian server?

[delicate meteor]

no

well partially, in naeu release it will be fully working (korean VO dlc on steam)

[delicate meteor]

the official info you that vpn's are against steam and amazon policies? from roxx

[kindred token]

No they dont work at all anymore

You can crash the game

[delicate meteor]

my game doesn't crash

but I think it's no longer KR voices, yea

[potent shoal]

are there any guides close enough to our NA/EU patch for gold farming?

[delicate meteor]

in #info-dump

[river torrent]

do you need vpn to download ru if you want to make char preset

[delicate meteor]

you need vpn to launch lost ark RU

[umbral yoke]

Can you queue pvp arenas with friends from other servers on NA East?

[bleak tartan]

will this run on a laptop with integrated graphics

[modest linden]

are people going to play on Na east Regulus

[delicate meteor]

probably

[heavy coyote]

when will lost ark release

[potent shoal]

thx for the link, I'm guessing its fogelstroms google document? So far its the only one I found the word gold in. xD

[nocturne wren]

Is having different classes important in PvE? I know for certain one of my friends is going Berserker but I was thinking of playing Berserker too. But I don't want our comps to be weird so I'm thinking about selecting something else

[delicate meteor]

It's not, you can run 4 berserkers. Play what you want.

[trim sinew]

Are name restrictions going to be changed before release?

[sweet aspen]

Out of curiosity does anyone have a to do list of weeklies and dailies for Lost Ark?

[muted garden]

for the twitch drop event, do we just afk watch stream?

[delicate meteor]

No

[vale kayak]

Can we pin this?

[delicate meteor]

I don't take credit for it, it's not mine

[sweet aspen]

curious also

is it worth using the knowledge transfer right away to get alts up and running? or should I just level my alts by hand

[summer gyro]

pros and cons to both, either option has merits

[delicate meteor]

it is worth in the long run

[subtle steeple]

heard that you need to lvl 1 character then you can use it and then lvl another to use another transfer ?

[halcyon crystal]

Guys what’s the smartest founders pack to get?

[sweet aspen]

So what are the pros and cons of doing it? Just trying to get may head wrapped around it. People saying no mostly and others saying yes

Realistically how much would it hurt me short term by doing the knowledge transfer

[boreal oyster]

short term? it's a downside long term.

[wanton sequoia]

they all are equally dumb

[summer gyro]

pro to doing it: gets your alts online quicker so they can start gearing up and go through the tiers quicker
con: 600g is a lot of gold early game, so you might struggle with gold sinks

[sweet aspen]

How soon should I be looking at alts?

[boreal oyster]

imo the only real con is that the 600g opportunity cost, yeah...

As soon as you want, but no sooner than your main hitting 50 unless you hate the class

[spiral thistle]

The one that you comfortably can afford or multiple

[delicate meteor]

gold has best value per money

but plat has unique goodies

[muted garden]

bronze for early access and pet

silver is kinda jank but just the above + 10$ crystal which is sort valueish if you were planning to buy crystals anyway*

gold is the most "cost efficient". get extra skin

plat is efficient too. it's good if you want the pet + extra extra skin

[muted garden]

bump. ive never done a viewer drop event. plz help

[delicate meteor]

for twitch drops you afk in stream

[subtle steeple]

yes

[delicate meteor]

but this one takes multiple dayss

[shut pasture]

600g early on can be a lot, and the alt may not be able to pay that back for a good bit of time. We don't know 100% if we will have gold from T1 and T2 Abyssal Dungeons as rewards. It works that way on KR but not in RU so...who knows. Regardless, I think even if T1 and T2 Abyssal Dungeons rewarding gold is a thing for our version it would only pay back a little over that 600g investment on the alt knowledge transfer.

[spiral thistle]

If you afk watch you can't have it on mute though. Twitch knows that and you don't get drops.

[muted garden]

@delicate meteor @subtle steeple ty

[muted garden]

that's hilarious

[subtle steeple]

works fine for all other drops on twitch, got dying light2 drops yesterday, had stream muted ,didn't watch

[delicate meteor]

the one time gold rewards should be enough, no?

[muted garden]

extra mats and time saved seems worth it in itself. what am i speeding to use 600g on?

[spiral thistle]

Maybe they changed it then because it for sure used to not count if muted. Granted I haven't ever cared about drops pretty much.

[spiral thistle]

You hoard gold for T3 where the costs are never ending

[shut pasture]

To pay for the knowledge transfer? No, it would need to be a combination of things that early on. Frijj mapped it out for if T1 Abyssal Dungeons give gold rewards.

[delicate meteor]

I think priority is to get to t3

[muted garden]

wouldn't i rather have the alt though?

[spiral thistle]

I already compiled all gold to get in eastern area it's above 3k gold. Guide quests alone are over 600g

[delicate meteor]

exactly, you do that on alt and it pays for itself within one day?

[analog jasper]

think we'll have enough time to get at least 1 una bag? That would help a lot too

[spiral thistle]

T1 gold gain is abyssmal.

[delicate meteor]

real MVP

[maiden locust]

this

[spiral thistle]

Gold from Vern Abyss dungeon is 80g/dungeon

That is all I know atm

So that is 160g for 1 week if you can't get to i460

[muted garden]

what's this mean? im smoothened brain

[maiden locust]

even by doing only guide quests ull get over 600g

[shut pasture]

We also don't know 100% if we will even have gold from T1 and T2 abyssal dungeons.

[spiral thistle]

Gold from quests on all eastern continents Yellow/Chain/Purple/Blue:
920g

Gold obtained from Guide quests Orange/Purple/Yellow/Chain:
700g

Gold obtained from island quests or on islands Yellow/Chain/Purple:
1240g

Gold obtained from rapport level rewards (not quests and only eastern part of map):
9300g (The amount of rapport points needed for ALL of this is INSANE and is going to take months)

These will 100% not align with what you can get. Some rewards might not be the same and I might have missed something or added up things wrong but here you have an indication.```

[shut pasture]

We hope, it would help, but...

[analog jasper]

true, but I feel like we're modeling closer to KR than RU, so I'm hopeful

[shut pasture]

Note thats combined not just in T1, thats T1, T2, T3 everything.

[spiral thistle]

It would be disastrous if T1 and T2 Abyss did not give gold as reward. People would have nothing to move about with aside from 1-time rewards.

Especially with Knowledge in the game too. It would mean Knowledge is a pure trap.

[shut pasture]

Thats true, its just I'd rather not tell people its a thing for sure unless we know because it could not be

[analog jasper]

fair

[maiden locust]

where did this abyss dungeons not giving gold meme even come from, did they say something like that?

[muted garden]

i heard russians dont get it?

[analog jasper]

t1/t2 abyss dungeons give 0 gold in RU

[shut pasture]

It used to be that way, but was changed and is also still that way on RU. We don't know what variation we are getting at launch.

[maiden locust]

mmmm

[analog jasper]

Not a meme, and hopefully not a concern for us 🤞

[delicate meteor]

It depends when we start needing gold for upgrading

[spiral thistle]

You need it in T1 already for the last 4 levels. Even if the cost is tiny it's there.

[analog jasper]

i believe you need gold for the arctus crystals in t2, also

[queen sequoia]

The best min max strat is to reach 1369 gear score. Weekly farm t2 abyssal dungeons for gold + t3 abysall dungeons (hard). And daily shadow yoho. Save every mat u get and by the time argos comes out u will be richest person on server.

[delicate meteor]

yea, if there is no reliable income from daily/weekly we are boned, no?

[muted garden]

in that case, why both(knowledge alts + hand level them)?

is your plan to hand level 6+ chars :0?

[spiral thistle]

You don't. Unless you mean Fusion stones that will cost gold to craft that is unobtainable from other sources.

[muted garden]

i wouldn't mind a slower game given we have all content unlocked

[analog jasper]

yeah the ones from estate or AH

[muted garden]

no gold for t1 t2 kappa happy fun

[maiden locust]

gold helps alot even if its 600, only really use the transfer on alts if you dont have the time to level them. also if you wanna have 6 alts you need to levle 3 manually

[spiral thistle]

How are there any on AH? Amazon doesn't put them there.

[queen sequoia]

u get gold from t1/t2 abysal dungeons

each clear rewards u gold

[muted garden]

oh it's 1 for 1? ty that's useful info

[analog jasper]

not COMPLETELY as there are still the gold/red portals, dookie island, adventure islands, etc. So there will always be gold sources, just not as reliable

[shut pasture]

AH offerings for us will be limited for a good bit because people will need those materials lol

Prices may also be kinda fucked for a bit

[plain thunder]

What weapon does Shadowhunters use?

[maiden locust]

AH will have new people selling grudge for 100 gold

[muted garden]

why does it help a lot? like will i be spending the money immediately or is this for mostly t3 hording? (im l/a dummy)

[maiden locust]

glaives/tonfas whoever you see

[spiral thistle]

"may" isn't even needed. The prices will be insane.

[analog jasper]

Apparently the first boost to Vern is 1 lvl 50 = like 12 knowledge transfers. The manual leveling thing doesn't matter until the later boosts.

[queen sequoia]

grudge t1 book should only be 10g

[maiden locust]

what frrr

[maiden locust]

meant the leggy books

[analog jasper]

yeah if thats the case, I will not level again after my first character lmao

[shut pasture]

Huge bladed tonfas.

[queen sequoia]

some idiots on launch gonna buy grudge at 50-100g each

[harsh zodiac]

if your main is in regulus, can your other characters in other servers use your items from your main

[queen sequoia]

take advantage of that. You will make bank

[analog jasper]

uhhh

[delicate meteor]

wait, you mean the book is worthless and to make bank on selling them high?

[spiral thistle]

I won't be getting a total of 6 characters for a long time. I might pay for x1 Knowledge and manually level x1 alt while Knowledge is running. I don't need a total of x6 characters early. It's more important to get to higher ilvl for me because the higher ilvl you are the more gold you'll make and the easier it gets to pay for Knowledge. It's not wrong to do one way or another. I've just chosen my path.

[analog jasper]

the idiots would be the ones selling it for that little so early on

[queen sequoia]

no books are worth. But in the beginning ppl will overpay

[maiden locust]

no books are worth??

[queen sequoia]

everybody needs 20 grudge t1

[analog jasper]

legendary grudge is gonna normalize to a lot higher than 100g

[delicate meteor]

Literally confused AF

[queen sequoia]

but u can get them for free

by playin the game

[umbral hazel]

well eh thats true for everything with that statement

[maiden locust]

try and get 20 leg grudge for free im watching u lmaoooooooooooo

[umbral hazel]

but how long is this "free method" gonna take it lol

[analog jasper]

if ur talking green and blue, yeah just farm those yourself

but purple and yellow

[queen sequoia]

u need 20 tier 1 grudge, 20 tier 1 sharp blunt, 20 tier 1 cursed doll

[analog jasper]

prepare to spend, seriously

[spiral thistle]

Not long. There are a shit ton of free resources for Lv1 and Lv2 books.

[dark stream]

Guys, when will the founder;s pack disappear? The 11th?

[queen sequoia]

those are the main ones

[maiden locust]

we are talking about leggy/purple

[queen sequoia]

then blue purple yellow

[delicate meteor]

yes

[shut pasture]

I think the easiest initial mid to long term goal should be 2 to 3 alts to start, get them earning, then get the rest up to 6 chars total prepped and earning.

[queen sequoia]

20 of each

[shut pasture]

Either by or before Argos. If you are being a hardcore monkey like my ass and others

[queen sequoia]

20 grudge legendary aint happening unless u swipe lmao

[dark stream]

ty

[queen sequoia]

[delicate meteor]

Founder’s Packs will be available for purchase through 9AM Pacific time on February 11th.

[maiden locust]

thats what we are talking about the whole time, nobody is talking about t1 books bruh

[analog jasper]

You can get it without swiping, in like 3-6 months 😛

[maiden locust]

you went on a rant there by yourself

[queen sequoia]

sell me ur grudge legendary book 5k each good price

[spiral thistle]

Try to keep discussion to a minimum as I see questions getting drowned.

[dark stream]

Alrighty, thank you! Can you tell me, if you know, how many Dollars or Euros will 7k Royal Crystals cost? All I care about is Character slots, I wanted to know if it was more worth getting the founder;s pack or just to buy them separately ^^

[delicate meteor]

leak suggest 10usd for 1k

[maiden locust]

leaks suggest 10usd for 1k

cypros jinx

[dark stream]

Ok, and the char slot is also, 1k right?

So its basically a 20 usd difference.

[delicate meteor]

10usd (leak)

[analog jasper]

but its still slight speculation until we get the monetization vid or confirmation

[maiden locust]

wait that means if we go by the leaks, char slot and 4k crystals are already 50 bucks meaning everywhere else in the gold pack is free

[analog jasper]

but most likely correct, especially considering the founder pack pricing

[dark stream]

Alrighty. Thanks everyone!

[delicate meteor]

[muted garden]

gold is omega efficient

[queen sequoia]

12k

[muted garden]

if pets are tradeable, might be worth going 4x founders if you're whale'ing

[maiden locust]

time to scam new players for grudge

[maiden locust]

think theyre not

[viscid escarp]

guys, is it faster to level up with a group or solo?

[maiden locust]

solo

jinx 2nd time

DONT DELETE IT

[viscid escarp]

ty!

[maiden locust]

why is ignition so expensive bruh

[muted garden]

i heard official word of "nothing in founder tradeable" but that can mean a lot of things

[delicate meteor]

ask russians idk

[stray pumice]

whats the fastest way to get your class engraving?

[analog jasper]

t4 books are hard af to get the one you need

[maiden locust]

u on ru rn?

[spiral thistle]

Island quests or doing endless chaos if endless chaos exist for T1 which it should, but it's still a if

[delicate meteor]

I have access, but that was posted in anotehr discord

[maiden locust]

wanted to check SH dark side t4 engraving pricing rn

[stray pumice]

whats endless chaos? and by island quests you mean going to the little islands and finishing the short questlines there?

[queen sequoia]

ignition is the main engraving for sorcs

[maiden locust]

spamming chaos dungeons until your fingers start hurting

[delicate meteor]

before you could only do chaos limited times

[spiral thistle]

Endless chaos is doing chaos outside your daily limit that has other rewards like tokens you can spend at Chaos NPC. That NPC has x20 books you can buy as a 1-time thing which contains every single engraving in the game and you can pick your class engraving there. You'd have to do like 8-10 chaos runs beside your daily I think.

[spiral thistle]

Island quests are just quests on any island. There are various rewards and many are engraving books either class or non-class that you get a satchel you choose which books to get.

[stray pumice]

ah so buying them with the cataclysm crystals

[queen sequoia]

Grudge, sharp blunt, curse doll. | Class one u choose madness or ignition. These are the most expensives/most sought after

[maiden locust]

is it the usual consesus that if youre a dps u want a +12 grudge +12 class engraving, and then the rest on acc, or do you get sumn else instead of grudge for books

[spiral thistle]

You are ignoring the fact that we might have the new engravings like Precision Dagger, Adrenaline etc.

[queen sequoia]

o

[obsidian fiber]

for end game content how many potions can you use per raid, i heard you cannot keep constantly using potions

[spiral thistle]

Grudge always staple doesn't matter but Sharp Blunt and Cursed Doll might not at all be what you'd want to pick afterwards.

[stray pumice]

alright cool thanks

[spiral thistle]

Limit is between 5 and 7. Most commonly it's 5.

[obsidian fiber]

@spiral thistle how does that work exactly, 5 potions per pull? per boss attempt

[spiral thistle]

Per encounter attempt.

If you wipe everything is reset

[obsidian fiber]

ok

[steel pine]

How long are island events? If they only start at specific times, how long do I have to complete them

[dapper nebula]

besides the #guild-recruitment channel, what are some other places folks are looking for guild members?

[muted garden]

wait, does she have x20 book limit? i thought she provided infinity t1

[umbral hazel]

Are there's a good economy youtube video that you guys recommended?

[spiral thistle]

Yes, 20 then no more

[muted garden]

oh what the heck. can i get em on an alt and transfer?

@spiral thistle *

[spiral thistle]

Engravings are server wide. Doesn't matter who use them or gets them.

[knotty wharf]

Can someone clarify the % rewards for completion in the adventure tome. Are they account wide (like the stat or vitality potions) is there any reason to hold off on collecting them on one toon over another?

[muted garden]

fugg... so do ppl usually use the NPC books at the end to round out what they're missing?

[spiral thistle]

I'm Bard main so I'm just going to grab x20 class ones since it's important.

[plain thunder]

How do you claim the founder pack rewards? Does it come automatically after creating your first character or am I able to create a few and decide which character I want it to be claimed?

[summer gyro]

goes into roster storage, and you take it out of there to claim it
