I don't see any video about class on Sywo chanel.
different than kr and ru
how long do u think it takes to take "Samurai" name? 
Which video?
the name database has to be reset manually. could be a while before a deleted name is opened back up.
i mean. u can delete ur char that has the name so the buyer could take it quick?
I wonder if the controller support is live on other versions already
Console version probably a ways off too
Nope if you delete the name still counts as taken
oh wow
Controller support is in all regions yes. It’s quite good for melee
Wow!!

Thanks gotta check it since, rip if it is 5 char slots
i saw a +1 char expand for founder packs
yep, i hope not but its looking grim
gold+ packs give 1 slot
stacking
unfortunate if youre reserving multiple names gonna have to pay later to recustomize character appearances right?
whats the best way to level alt? im at the final dungeon in steam punk but i cant enter
It is 6 you can see that after he bought the expansion ticket it was 6/6 and 0/1 on the bottom left
ahhh, youre right, i didnt see he was on the second page of characters, my bad. THANK YOU!
Got me scared for a sec 
but for the "optimal" route once you get ship dont you go farm a dungeon?
no why would we farm a dungeon?
because the xp is supposed to be better
u have to pay for that?
how much
u are right didnt think of that. for someone like me that cutomizes char for 3 hours thats not good
The ‘optimal route’ is just msq
There’s no way to earn anywhere near as much xp as msq rewards doing anything else
msq means main side quest?
Main story quest
soo as a new player who makes the char, i just follow story quests till 50 simply? with focus of leveling first
name changes and appearence changes will each prob cost $5-10 on NA if I had to guess. RU is about $5.

Yes, the 1-50xp system was overhauled to make it so that the main story is all that’s needed
choose wisely
good luck getting good names with good appearnce at the same time 
all about names first on a fresh mmo launch
Mhh i still don't know what to schose, Battle Master, soulfist and scrapper sound good but i don't know if they are good enough in PvP .
ofc name > anything else
if u have a name like samurai everyone in 2 year from now when they see u they will know u were one of those that jumped in the game 10 sec after it was released 
and that u are old player and to respect u
What is the restrictions of being on a different server from Friends?
each class is pretty good in pvp. it really comes down to the player. battlemaster if you wanna be quick. scrapper if you wanna hit like a truck, but move like one too. soulfist if you wanna be goku.
cant talk, interact and invite them to party
cant do anything literally
Might sound like a dumb question but has anyone purchased a lost ark founder pack using steam wallet?
Yes

✮ How to play LOST AR...
but never bought a preoder founder back before
demonic? shes apparently moving up the ranks with recent balance changes for melee, and shes pretty easy to pick up. i cant say much else, not very familiar with the class.
if u cant afford exitlag u can use a vpn simply. but free vpns are shit with ping so be aware of that. u might need to search some time to find a good one
very funny to see netherlands and belgium locked aswell 
Ok the thing is i'm probably going to reroll, reaper or lance master when they come out so i don't know i'm looking for a class that can help me reroll in the futur.
thanks!
The kill list for every class is fixed ? you can't change a skill if there is one you don't like right ?
I don't remember from my beta playtime
hi
For character name, can I make a character to "reserve" my name and than spend 12h on making my character than delete the old char and give it to my new char?
id say scrapper and blade are the most comprable to lance master, but the others you listed are great choices too. in terms of skills, each class, other than gunners, has 8 skill slots and around 20 skills that can be interchanged however you want.
Is there some preasumptions of the class seperation? Like a voting somewhere, I don't know. But to guess what classes others will play - Idon't want to play the most played ones, hehe.
There been a few "Polls" etc on reddit and on dicord for that matter but at best thats a drop in the bucket
but you can check #navigation and count the class role counter
nope,
Kinda rough but at least it will give you a idea for what class most people seems to like in discord at least
Thank you man
Blade is really popular compared to Infighter but that also has a reason
welp assumed as much, guess I will have to pay 10$
OH ! so on the wardancer i don't like the tornado skill i can remove it. Nice.
Yea scrapper look super cool and the boss cancel is pretty nice, but i don't like the giant fist esthetic.
Which reason is it?
Wait infighter = scrapper?
guys, i'm having trouble converting time zone with the release time of the game.. is it gonna be released in around 1 day and 20 hours?
!release
Pre-download: <t:1644253200:f>

https://www.playlostark.com/en-us/news/articles/launch-details
Aren't the releases different per region? That one looks like US release.
Actually I read it does. that's the us one
Read the text
Blade is just stronger right now, most people like the aesthetics more, the founder avatar is more recent and looks higher quality, new class with more tools and protection in PvP, Infighter is due for a rework/balance pass this year.... to name a few
and yea Infighter = Scrapper 😄 I refuse to use that name
when it comes down to it, how much fun youre having and how much you like the aesthetic is what really matters. if youre only picking a temp main, and you arent set on any class until lance master drops, just test all the classes that interest you. you've got 6 character slots to fill haha.
tbf both name sucks imo, but wtf I thought infighter was unpopular
I read it, okay thanks for confirming. I just suggested only the time is converted, not the information, you know?
edit: okay you are right, I just looked it up and calculated it, they seem to have changed this to one same release and chose to prefer US time zone. I was convinced it was 6pm for my time zone when I checked the last time (now it's 3Am lol). Also I was convinced this would stay when reading about the Legends of Lost Ark event race. My bad.
Mamma mia, will my engraving and shit be more expensive now than I thought
yea xD thx
Infighter is still really popular in KR here not so much
of course, glhf
Thanks for elaborating. (my opinion is different, but it doesn't belong here)
Good news for me I guess! and thanks.
I've read from some people that NA can do 3 days of dailies before the weekly reset but isn't it just 2? Tues and wed and then weekly reset is thurs morn at 1am?
prob counting the 11th to
10h-25h to lvl on 8th, so doing daily on 9th 10th 11th
since the WR to lvl 1-50 is 10h, its prob not possible todo daily on the 8th since you only have 7h before reset
Yeah but it's incorrect, you do dailies on Wednesday and after midnight it's weekly reset before Thursday begins pretty much
That is only for EU, not NA
Oh, I mean I thought our weekly reset for everything, including una's task was thurs morning
oh, is NA reset different?
nvm me stupid timezone
I guess you guys headstart start earlier on the day
Does someone have an official statement about the auction house share? I Know it's shared region wide in Korea, but it's "just" one country. in EU we have millions of players. I mean I read they change it, but not sure on the details.
!region

Nothing is Cross Region
Yeah time difference. So NA east you can do una's on tues, wed, but I thought they reset at 1am which is the same as weekly reset so I thought it was just two days. does una's task reset at midnight instead of 1am?
its region wide still
They seem to not have an EU team? Judging from the release time being the exact same. (perhaps you need to be ready to fix problems)
Thx! @long prawn Thx!
it is just one set of dailies that most players wont even be able to get
Heya. Is pre-t3 content reasonable to do single player or is it mostly party based content ?
While you can do Guardians solo I don't recommend it. Abyss is forced group. Chaos can be grouped but everyone solo because it's stupidly easy.
And you need all 3 for t3? guardians + abyss + chaos
you are going to be doing them daily in t1 t2 and t3
Thanks. I meant if you need a combination of all 3 to get decked for t3 though. Like are the drops specific to each type of content or mixed ?
If you don't do any end game content you'll never get anywhere because you aren't getting any materials for upgrading your gear
you need to do all 3
Ok, so the drops are unique to each of the types, thanks !
Well, not entirely true since there are lots of material rewards from other sources but 1-time rewards and once that is gone you'd be stuck
Hi, does Pet Effects apply to you even if you don't use those pets, for example I have 3 pets and all of them have their pet effects unlocked, will all 3 pets' effects apply to me or only the one I have equipped?
Only the 1 active
Ah, thanks for the clarification.
only the one you have equipped
Thanks
guys i see this island system and open seas, and i have underwater/shark/kraken phobia so badly, is there any shark or thing in sea waters that you sail or u get attacked by smt? or u just move around?
you just move around
nice thanks. good to know i wont face a sea creature while exploring the sea
There are pirates though! yarrrr
Okay. you made me doubt my own notes. Now I double checked it. They literally state themselves, 5pm UTC, the bot here however shows me 2 AM. (I live in EU)
na pirates are good they dont bring me underwater to eat me 
Could I get some advise from people who have played before. I'm looking to start the game as gunlance or paladin. I think gunlance but understand it interacts with mechanics differently, with shields and taunt etc.
Should I start paladin to "learn the game" or would gunlance be OK? I think paladin maybe a little faster?
there is a sea underwater abyss dungeon though
Bot shows correct times for me
Doesn't matter, just play what you want to play
just have fun
Also from EU, bot shows correct time for me too, 18:00 (am UTC+1)
isometric views should be fine aslong as i know what im facing in that dungeon. not a shark jumpscare me
exactly 👏
I've narrowed it down to deathblade or soulfist. I'm leaning deathblade but I'm skeptical of a few things.
Which is easier to play in harder content? Which is easier to gear? Which is more forgiving? And is mana a real issue for deathblade or is it ignored?
and @umbral hazel hm. Okay. Then there is a problem on my end. Never mind. Answer is solved. Excuse me please.
those streamers that rate classes and say this good that bad are the worst they make ppl choosing classes they dont like for power
just play both
i smell illidan fan 
if you end up preferring one over the other just use that one as an alt
trying to make a US steam account and Im getting disconnect from vpn
just move to the US
ur vpn sucks prob
try this https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/setupvpn-lifetime-free-vp/oofgbpoabipfcfjapgnbbjjaenockbdp
u could actually put the country on US from whenever u are logged
make sure u are connected to US vpn when adding gift card and buying the game however, i think as far as i remember when u purchase, region automatically changes to where u are connected and wont be easily changed after
Maybe eventually but for now I'd like to decide on one to start with, can you recommend?
thanks will try this out
Hah, I just enjoy more fast paced gameplay and mobility. I played demon hunter on retail wow and loved it. I play a pally tank on classic tbc
i also play pal tank and hunt in tbc
but imagine deathblade is a badass rogue assasin with 2 cool blade. soulfist is just a monk. a lowly monk 
Are pallys decent at healing compared to bard?
I just worry that I'll grief my raid if I suck at either. Though I guess if I wiff a spirit bomb it'll be much more noticeable than anything else
Pala heal is slow and steady while Bard has burst potential with hers
yea exactly if u f*k up the bomb everyone will notice 
did anyone say DPS PALA 
this reminds me of vanilla ret palas. perfect choice ever both there and here 
Will the level cap be 50 or 60 for our launch?
I leveled soulfist to 40 or so on the beta it was really fun, I feel like I'd really like either tbh, just hard to settle. If something like glaive or destroyer was a thing, that's what I'd play
Non issue. Just play what you want. Can just not use Spirit Bomb.
60
@spiral thistle Cheers
problem solved 👏 
Yeah just use 2nd awakening instead if you feel like you can't get value from Spirit Bomb
I didn't know the level cap is 60 lol, do you need to hit 60 to do endgame content or does it start at 50?
also if u feel like u might suck, maybe dont play the game or play totally different class 
How long do we have to wait for summoner?
i have same question for lance master
No one knows. Wait for them to post road map
Lv50 is all that matters. Getting to Lv60 takes months
Is there any information on rough estimates how long it takes to level up guild to fully unlock the 100 slots? I have seen a example that a weekly task at reset can get 300xp points and to go from lvel 1 - 2 need 500 xp. Does each 3 weekly event give 300xp or is that a combined amount from completing all 3 events. I assume that as you go up in lvl so does xp requirement to unlock next level, so does xp reward also go up?
Oh, weird
are character creation presets same as russian or different in eu? I want to choose my preset fast to get into game as fast as possible
is the energy per character or is shared?
for lifeskilling? i believe it's shared
When are they going to make a post about NA monetization? They said they would in the Jan update.
Gotta show it last second
big oof
Make sure it's 5head so you can't turn back
thought I mightve missed it
Im guessing not much diff from ru and kr? Im kinda fine how it is now so whatev

Anyone know if there's a way to import the saved appearance of a character to another region?
(Well, ofk from Ru to Na/Eu)
I know those are not directly compatible but maybe changing something on the file?
Before Beta ends get this done before the release!

From beta i know, but from Ru?
thats from beta tho
?
unless there's a way to make beta presets elsewhere
just watch the video
K
he brings his presets from KR to beta, not from beta to launch
it is the same process just have to change the region code in notepad++
I am wondering will those missed presets be added in the launch? I do not understand why we gonna replace those presets? Why can’t we just add more western presets to satisfy everyone? The first pic is the character created in KR/RU, but when import the character data to NA server, what the hell is this???
Some options will be different, so your preset may get messed up
or the game crashes and you get sent back to queue limbo and never get your name
Yeah I'll probably just make it quickly or change appearance after the fact
If it's not too expensive
MSQ, arthetine yellow quests was old way before updates
you can just press M when you in game to see which type you get but i highly think it the updated version for ease of leveling(especially when we getting t3 there no point for them to do the old leveling)
they have controller support still right?
Mhm
will it work with the ps5 controller too
Not sure how steam mixes with DualShock. Probably works as long as you have that DualShock program installed
Did not know this game was getting controller support
i mean it runs with all of my other games just wondering with this one
How long does it take to return a Founder's Pack? I want to buy the gold one.
not was getting it already have controller support with xbox
2nd is better.. hate those Asian anime dolls vibe
Whenever steam support gets to it. I dunno if they do 24/7 live service
not really a matter of taste, but the fact that we don't get access to the same customization options
Even after the return the funds are not available asap even if you refund to steam credit btw
You can buy multiple packs and they stack. Just an FYI.
My returns always take about 2 hours to be approved and then 24 hours on hold.
do i need na steam account or i only need exitlag to play from singapore
NA steam account is needed if you don’t see lost ark in your steam store @rugged musk
Not to use exitlag, but you need the NA steam account to download the game in the first place
If I'm trying to get on the game when it goes live do you need to launch the game after the servers go up or will the client update even if you're already in the game
Most likely client won't just refresh while it's open is my guess
How many engraving points do legendary necklaces give and can rings/earrings give class engravings or is that limited to necklace and books?
Depends on tier, not rarity. Any accessory can have class engraving
Well rarity plays a part too but the maulus for legendary in T1/T2 isn't the same as in T3
Do I know which servers will be popular or small before launch?
Or how would I know*
guys i really won't have much time to lvl up like many characters maybe 1-2 at most
so will be hurt and be far behind ?
I quit
Nah. For T1/T2 it doesn't matter all that much. It's more pushing in T3 later on and even then you'll always get there
What class should i play to transfert stuff later on a reaper ?

I'm looking at engraving points sources and I'm seeing 7/7 for the stone, 2x 12 for imprint books, and 1/2 for all accessories (necklace, ring x 2, earring x2). That's 53 points in total, which is only 3/3/3/1 at best. How do we end up with 3/3/3/3/1 or even 3/3/3/3/3/1? Or is the 53 total for T1 content only?
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
The amount of total points increases with tiers. In T1 absolute max is 333 but it would be insane overkill and would require a 9/9 stone which the odds of getting are astronomically low.
Total points from accessories or also from stones and books? Cause I thought the stone and books were fixed at 9/9 max and 12
if you delete a character can you use that username on a new alt?
rip
when are we going to pay for the packs in amazon?
Yes, grand totalt for T1 is 333. Books are +3, +6, +9 and finally +12 depending on rarity of the books. Green is +3 and Legendary +12. Stones are 0/0/0 when you get them and then you have to play a rng game to get points. 7/7 is a very good success but you'll probably botch a million stones like everyone else
Regulus and Azena, interesting.

Literally all of US East on 3/7 servers.
What I mean is, when we get to T3, I know we will be using different accessories, but how about the stone? Will we be cutting new stones as well, or will the stone be the same? Also the same question for skill books, e.g. are they a tier investment or permanent investment?
You can change servers in kr right?
nope
you get higher quality stones with more points to fill out.
books unlocks are permanent
dont expect server transfers
Ok, so really only the skill books are permanent investments, but stones and accessories are transient
they all work together anyway
you dont constantly swap your ability stone
accessories are very flexible to swap stuff around
im not even sure where you are trying to go with the whole thought you are having.
it seems like you are overcomplicating things quite a bit.
The engraving system is hard to grasp just theoretically without experience for most people. Once you see it ingame it makes sense
I'm trying to make sure I don't end up whaling on something that is going to be replaced later. From the sounds of it, investing in the books is safe, investing in T1/T2 accessories is a waste, and now it sounds like investing in a good stone in T1/T2 is also a waste
T1 and T2 are just stepping stones. You don't really need to invest for those tiers. Just the bare minimum. In T3 you have to because people are going to start setting requirements for getting into groups
Investing in anything T1/T2 related overall sounds like a waste if we're going to have T3 on launch actually
investing into anything you dont fully understand is not a good idea.
Just look at the crypto bubble. But yeah books are always save. still books are only good for 2 engraving slots so you should think about which 2 engravings you want to max out first with books since you still need to supplement those with 3 points to reach 15.
I just wasn't aware up until now that there were also different tiers for stones since everything I've read so far only indicated 9/9 for Legendary stones and 10/10 for Relic (though actually getting 10/10 should RNG be very impractical)
even getting a 9/7 stone is like sub 0.2% chance
That is just the max count of points you could get
Ok, I feel silly now, I just realized I could have just taken a look at a top KR build to understand the numbers. I'm seeing a 8/7 on the T3 stone (so really RNG lucky) with accessories being 5/3. This answers my question I guess on where the points come from at T3
yea and thats how you combine all these point sources
thats why i said i.e. when you get 12 points from a book you still need to supplmement with 3 points from another source
also cutting these ability stones is super rng and you might just drop 15-20k on buying good ability stones and wasting them because they cut wrong
In the end, you get 12/12 from two imprints, 7/7 (or better) from your stone, then go AH fishing for the right 5/3s to fill the rest that you want.
In the case of going Blue Gunlancer with only lvl 1 Combat Readiness (5 points), it would be a waste to buy books for the 5 points and you can't get class engravings from stones, meaning I'll need to get them from accessories. But at T3 with 5/3 on each accessory, this should be an easy task
Actually, it looks like getting higher than 7/7 stone isn't really important, it just gives you a bit more flexibility with using lower points accessories. Unless you get a 9 stone and a 6 accessory
i buy lost ark from steam , but it says available on 11 feb. is that ok ? i mean as i see we can download it on 7 feb but i dont see any of this information on steam ..
its available on 11th for everyone, if you bought founders pack you can play on 8th
yeah i buy it but the dlc its auto as i see , so yeah we wait 2 more days .. i was curius cause it says the game is available on 11 feb
Are there any classes that focus on lifesteal?
not really, shadowhunter heals a bit when she transforms for example
hello everyone, maybe it's a dumb question, do we need to complete the Bern storyline to do the islands ? i thought it was only limited by the ilvl and Shushire was available even without Bern completed
Thanks!
Little bit of question, can you change how your character looks after you created it without paying real money?
no
Someone told me there's a quest that gives you something but I guess maybe its not true
Silly question coming from former wow player: will there be/is there a similar site to wowhead for lost ark? with various guides and news?
There is papunika and maxroll @cosmic wagon
some events could give you a ticket to change your appearance. Not confirmed yet in Global launch
thanks 🙂
Ahh oki, thank you
do you have to select your class advancement to continue the story quest? or can you like come back to it later when you decide
Im pretty sure you have to select but I might be wrong
Guys I read that having large guild is not always the best idea, what's the point behind this?
Like isn't it more donations = more good stuff
well, large guild right now means Guild I, Guild II, Guild III till Guild I and II are big enough to put the ones in III in their roster
oh ok
right now people like that may fight to fit in the Guild I in order to compete with the most active
that can cause burnout to many players tbh, unless that guild has a system like "first come, first serve", which may not happen
Also, many players have signed for guilds to play on day 8. Like in my guild, we are already full 30 and we are making a 2nd guild for alters + bench. However, I'm 100% sure that not everyone will be present on 8th launch
Also, I would evade all those discord/guilds that are a community of other games too. If you are here for lost ark, just find a guild for lost ark. Those discords are like girls that put their instagram in tinder so you follow and they ghost you in the end.
Is it bad that I go into this game without any ideas? Like, I am not even sure how to find a guild lol
I am excited to discover it all on my own, I am just afraid to be left completely behind
you will probably fall behind if you dont read any guides
nah, lots of people are in your place and it's all good, start with #eu-central-guild-recruitment #guild-recruitment and read at least 10 guild descriptions. Some of them want full tryhards, some don't mind to have " newbies" at all
Being left behind is not something you should worry too much about.
But I would research a bit.
Thanks. Do you have any guides to suggest for completely new players like me?
until you want to ask something specific, #guides-and-info
Thanks. I can find a guild while in game though right? Or do I need to find one beforehand?
sure you can
but discord is kinda a must for most guilds. And you will find the right guild, most likely in discord
since sea players cant play lostark because of region lock. does anyone have a suggestion how the sea players can play lostark?
Ok vigor, thanks. I will take a look at the #guild-recruitment channel
Also something else that worries me, is that I want to exp slowly, plus I am working so I dont have much time. I want to experience the game because its the first time in years that I am as excited to play something new, and I dont want to rush or something. Is this a bad idea?
no
just say that to the guild you may apply to, so you don't have any problem in the future. As for you and the game, it's all good, everyone plays however they want
maybe ask in #tech-troubleshooting
is it safe to disassemble every equpiment before t3? or are there items that can carry over?
You recycle the armor/weapon you are using when moving into new tier
what are the main things I should take care of as a new player? to not do stupid mistakes that will cost me a lot of time
Don't use potion;
why
I think they mean the potions that restore a % of life only, right? These are the important ones. We can use the rest while leveling.
If you took the time to work on presets during CBT do the files need to be modified or anything with Notepad++ ?
when can I do chaos dungeons?
Character creating isn't the same as it was on CBT
Lv50 just as 99% of everything in the game
how fast can I get to lv50
Really ? I saw a post somewhere by Firekingstarter that the Customizing Folder could be put into the game to load already made presets
are there any places i can go to that will help me find a group of ppl to play with before the game releases like any specific discords? am new n trying to team up with someone who has possibly played atleast abit of the game ;-;
It differs somewhat. That I know. How that translates to all that mumbo jumbo you guys are obsessed with I don't know because I don't care that much about looks ^^
what are these engravings? when do I get them
50
hi, can I ask someone couple of questions about couple of classes? I don't want to pollute the chat so you can DM me if you want to help

are there any dungeon i can spam to farm this if i dont have resonance/abyss/guardians left?
You most likely should look into the Guild Recruitment section and look for something that you're interested in and apply to those discords. That's your best bet
To some extent endless chaos dungeon but there are more effective ways to spend your time
arent there any dungeons that gives boxes that have this items?
No. Everything in the game is gated by dailies/weeklies for normal progression. There are quest rewards on islands with upgrade materials.
That’s when you’d use alts to farm right?
We are in a weird position because of our release having T3 and we're all starting from 0. It's going to take a long time before your main runs out of things to do. Everyone going to play differently but I'm not going to spend time on alt(s) when my main can just keep progressing
But generally, if you got nothing left to do in terms of at least dailies left on your main then you'd either do weeklies or swap to alt
help do i play striker because the playstyle looks more fun or do i play wardancer because girl
Hello,with what currency are skins purchasable in game?i never played the game thats why i ask
Royal Crystals, Blue Crystals, Gold and Carnelias
Do we know where the na us east servers are located to make a wise choice?
Can the guild crest be changed after creation in Lost Ark?
Oregon and Virginia
They are all there? Saw like 5-6 choices
Is there a list of things you can/can't do cross server in Lost Ark?
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
Allright thanks for infos
Free obtainable or with money
Thanks
Royal Crystals can only be obtained with real money. However other players can buy skins and put them on AH so you can buy them for gold instead. There will most likely be events giving away skins too.
do all the melee dps classes have positionals or are there some that dont need to worry about it?
I have far from played everything but I'm pretty sure all have but it differs by how much
Yeah I was just gonna say they all basically do for the most part
Either head or back but some aren't that back attack focused as others. I don't think Soulfist or Glaivier is that back attack heavy
what's the best class to gather resources mobility wise?
But even they attack the back
Hey guys, anybody know the rough or official head start and official release date/time for Australia is?
If I played on US West
Reaper, scrapper and gunslinger are pretty mobile
Guys, are items +15 tradeable? from auction for example?
And also, if anybody here is from Australia, what will be the official unofficial Australian region/server?
Hot tip is to just save random accessories with all Swiftness on them and chug that on whenever you are doing Life
NA West Valtan is the latest I've seen from community crowdsourcing
I know but I'm not going to gather with a full swiftness warlord , I want to know what are the best classes in order to do it fast bc I want to play a 3rd character and I don't know which class
so it might be a good thing to consider
I would much more value what I want to play rather than slightly faster gathering since that is 0.1% of the time you spend playing
Can the guild crest be changed after creation in Lost Ark?
You drain your points and it takes 2-2½day to refill
Guys, are items +15 tradeable? from auction for example?
Cheers man

guys, do we know how big the eu servers are gonna be? as in how many people can fit in one server before its capped
what useful can be bought for these crystal p2w tokens?
No we don't
oki 
Super long queues are expected?
Ship skin is the only thing I recommend starting out
can I buy premium time with these royal coins?
Yep
How someone told me to imagime how this works and why there will be long queues. Imagine a castle right a huuge castle that can hold a lot of people, but that castle has a small door for people to get in, only a few at a time. So we have to wait for them to pass thru that door so the people next in line can pass
Sorry I'm asking questions everywhere 🤣 I've watched a couple videos about the classes but there's so many it's been difficult trying to figure this out myself with my smooth brain.
Is there a class that's the least spammy/requires the least amount of button pressing, or are they pretty much all equal? I have very painful arthritis I'm trying to manage so I try to play the most chill classes in games if possible.
Let me know ☺️
Theres some super spammy classes like deadeye, gunslinger. I think ur best is like artillerist/gunlancer/sorc
how does one search for a group for legion raids when they are available? will there be a dungeon tool or can you only recruit people via server wide chat or orher programs like discord?
Group finder works for all content
You might enjoy paladin, gunlancer, or artillerist.
They are all low APM, very tanky and forgiving, and generally give great benefits to your team.
They're all reffered to as being the "chill semi-afk" classes because of how pleasant they are to pilot.
They should not aggrovate your arthiritis. ❤️
so server pop doesnt really matter?
For grouped content, no
only for world events?
I wanted to main destroyer or lance master but it won't be out for launch, some classes I wanna play while I wait for them are soulfist or berzerker whats the opinion on them for end game?
Everything is viable, doesn't matter
for the legends of lost ark event, how do you activate twitch drops for lost ark account?
I wasnt looking for viability just wondering more like what class is more fun end game for a beginner what will cost me less in the long run if these won't be my mains but only played untill the other 2 classes mentioned drop
I only linked my twitch to my steam account so not sure if there is anything else I need to do
Zerker is experienced as very very fun with the "madness" engraving, as per feedback from other players.
Zerker will probably also be the easiest to pilot.
dps paladin viable confirmed
u heard it here boys
go dps on ur paladins
@rotund flare @maiden locust awesome, thank you so much! I wrote all this down. I'm still not sure if this game is going to be viable for me but from what I've seen so far (no constant camera moving! Controller friendly!) it seems like it might be a contender which is pretty exciting lol i'll check those classes out more!
Enjoy hope you can play it its a really nice game <3
The joy I have found in lost ark, as someone with tourettes and other aspects of unfortunate disability when it comes to gaming, is how adaptable it is to anyone who wishes to enjoy any form of content. From controller adaptation to colorblind modes, this game is extremely passionate about allowing EVERYONE to enjoy its vast world.
I sincerely hope you find yourself in awe, as I do. 
is there any closed beta tester from Singapore and what is your ping for NA/EU?
Hey guys, i was wondering if you could add people as friends cross server? or is it just lfg that you can play with others cross server? planning on going to a smaller server but want the option of finding a cross server static later if i need to
!region
Cross Server (Region wide)
Raids, Dungeons, Cube, Plat Fields, Auction house, Character name, Boss Rush, PVP arenas

Nothing is Cross Region
Thanks @spiral thistle
U can check your own ping with cloudping
I want to play soulfist, but I am worried about their ultimate (not sure if these skills are called ultimate), which has a 6 second cast time and others say it might completely miss. Is this as bad as it sounds?
Use the other one then
It can miss.
If it doesn't...

so from that, does it mean unless you have friends that are planning to go to a particular smaller server, it's always better to pick the more populated one?
It is always better to pick the least populated one for life skills, or the most populated one for guilds. Your choice really
Unless you are planning to participate in the server specific activities, or you have a guild/friendgrp that's going somewhere, your server choice will not matter.
Or the middle ground
Just go east if its really bad
Naw it still matters like hijack said, more populated servers= less life skill contention

yea it just sucks that picking a server is such an important choice since character name is so limited lol
what engravings are generally considered harder? the high agi spammy builds, or the high spec burstier builds?
What? Names are region. Has nothing to do with server.
yea that's what I mean lol
if you make a char with a name in a server, if your friends or whoever joins later and decides to play on another one you have to create a char with a different name to join them
Burst is generally considered more difficult because it needs encounter knowledge to maximize
Same goes for classes with delayed damage such as Artillerist or Sorc. Just a slight added thing to play around
is that where most of the difficulty comes from then?
or are there some classes that are generally hard to play "rotation" wise outside of being punished for missing burst on moving bosses
apart from dodging boss mechanics of course
Hi! If I open the Gold Founder Skin with a character, will I be able to use it in other characters ?(or at least other of the same class?)
Anybody here from Australia??
Yeah. Saintone decently recently said Burst Blade is what he considers most difficult
is there a video for that? im curious to see what other classes he considers difficult
Burst blade 
I think burst blade, the non pistoleer engraving DH, and reaper overall are considered the most difficult ones to play
i heard you cant
what about the easiest to play 
Some are difficult with little to no reward tho, like burst blade
Burst blade is meta in korea rn no?
The one with lackluster reward for its difficulty is DH imo
Im still gonna play it tho cuz i like it
You'd have to consult his stream vods, but he streams 8+ hours everyday, so I don't think it's worth the effort.

No, open it on the character u want it used on
LMAO
Not really it is still less popular than remaining energy
im only asking because im gonna be maining/playing gunlancer day 1
I also think people underestimate madness zerk difficulty
so i want my first alt to require a bit more brain power than bash>burst
There will be so many floor pov zerk players on launch
Then you can pick literally anything and feel good about it 
im probably gonna go striker
esoteric flurry looks so fun
or shock scrapper
one of the two
I am maining taijutsu scrapper for the fun factor. 
Better yet he can pick anything and get to grandmaster. I mean easy classes are just bash and burst right.
What ilvl is possible to get with island hopping/dailys before we do our first chaos dungeon?
somewhere before T3
Quick question by a noob. Are % stat bonuses multiplicative or additive in this game?
ahh is knowledge exchange the same thing as training dummy in the stronghold? confused AF
Additive
why are you answering without knowing
No, theres a robot where u do that, training dummy is for 50+
pet stat is multiplicative
so now there is a robot too? 
substat x 1.10
Engravings aint stfu
s1c relax
Does anyone have any video on knowledge exchange? I know need lvl50 and shushire done
Did he say anything rude to you
lmfao its funny
No need to respond that way
Saintone may have one
You don't need Shushire done, only Vern. And there is one in #announcements
false, even if u stack multiple 16-20% ones they dont boost the dmg given by the previous engraving
what?
Yeah Olav why are you ever using multiple dps engravings for?
grudge/cursedoll/massacre/etc, grudge wont give u 20% more from Cursedoll on top of its own
that is because cursed doll works differently
grudge + striking works multiplicative
despite how it works, u wont gain multiplicative stats like in PoE
cursed doll is not a 16% damage increase
its a 16% stat increase
yes, cursed doll and mass increase for example are not multiplicative with eachother
but grudge and striking are
pet bonus would be multiplicative
cursed doll is additive
^^ this is how i thought it worked too
so everything is multiplicative
no, its a case by case basis
where the dmg formula for engravings
which engraving gets calculated first
out of what?
Multiplication doesn't care about order.
(a x b) x c = a x (b x c)
What would the best stats for GS be and what should I be prepared to farm for? I'm planning on going the triple gun engraving
How detailed do you want the farm answer

uhhhh...go all the way from beginner to endgame
I know jack shit about the game and I keep hearing whispers about how important optimization is if you wanna save gold, which I'm assuming is valuable currency
Welp, gimme 30 mins
cool, remember to ping me xD
You should direct such class specific questions to the class channels
I directed tjem here from lost ark discussion now I feel bad
I didn't know the channel existed, whoops
when you buy a founders pack can you redeem the pet, title, skin etc on multiple servers or just one?
Can the head pieces on the Platinum avatar sets be disabled or are they hard locked to look how they do.
Everything can be equipped and hidden
Just send it in the #gunslinger channel if you can lol
Thanks king
You get a costume/avatar piece for every piece of armour so you can mix and match how your armor looks too
nice nice
so it's like the thing in diablo 3? Once you unlock a piece of armor you will get that appearance?
anyone knows?
What are the best resources for learning the lore of the game?
It should come in a box that you claim from the product inventory. I’m not sure how many boxes we will get but there is a good chance 1 founder pack = 1 box so everything in there goes onto the same server
anyone has the link to the guide website for the collectables ? mokoko maps and the hearts etc..
can i buy crystalline aura for royal tokens?
we technically dont know, but most likely
you can buy for blue crystals however, that we have confirmed
and blue crystals can be bought with royal crystals
thanks, is there any other websites ? i remember another one that i used for KR and RU
what is the royal token blue crystal ratio?
yes this one! thank u 
That one is basically archived now though, since long
we dont know yet
Does the guild you join matter? Does a large pop guild allow you to do something a small guild can't?
Yea most info should be on papunika
How good is Wardancer for PVP/PVE ?
No it just takes longer to unlock all the research
are general engravings/imprints (ie grudge) character-specific or server wide?
Is that the donating silver to unlock things on each char?
Good class, nice buffs, better and in the class channel. Check #navigation
That gives the guild exp, when the levels up it gets more slots for members and unlocks research, quests etc
oh they changed hearts of islands to island token
Thx
Engravings from the books are Server wide
They changed a ton of the names and papunika adjusted them to our version, all sources are still abit inconsistent but it should get better soon. maxroll.gg is also a great source btw
Is 8 or 9 people enough to make our own guild without missing too much?
do u think the rewards still the same ?
Idk I just check papunika
hey man check out https://lost-ark.maxroll.gg if you used infolao, i made infolao and now im contributing to maxroll with a few others 🙂
Maxroll covers Raid, Island, Character Leveling, Adventure Tome, Abyssal Dungeon and Build Class Guides, News, Collectibles, Tools, Builds and Tier Lists for Lost Ark.
what do you think the best time to start collecting these ? am thinking, after i reach 50 i start collecting them after my dallies
any good guides how to play shadowhunter for demon form?
You aren’t missing anything, it just takes longer. If you plan to play only 2-3 month that’s obviously not enough time to get everything done
❤️ u carried me when i played KR and RU.. thanks for the cool website
lol Yaen 
Also on Maxroll
Also any character specific questions just check class channels pins if what you are looking for isn't there ask in the class channel
how do i gain access to the locked channels that i am currently only able to read?
what things do Una’s task ticket skip?
W/e the quest needs you to do. You just instantly get rewards.
When you are running out of daily limited and progression relevant tasks. You can combine Island quests and hearts sometimes but you some islands are rng fiesta etc. I would aim for the skill point rewards first and come back later for more progress in the different categories and the longer time gated stuff
for like dailys? or what kinda of quests
Yeah dailies, Una's Task is daily quest
ok thanks I just didnt know what it did
Which channel? Please check #request-a-mod or #old-support-tickets
limited progression = dailies and weeklies ?
guys if i bought the bronze pack and i wanna upgrade to plat do i just buy the plat pack on steam and it updates it or how does it work
To use knowledge transfer is there enough gold before you reach t3?
Yea dailies, weeklies, easy island quests that give you material etc.
does anyone have pictures of those plat founders pack skins again?
Buy plat refund Bronze
after I hit 50 I can reskill?
you can always reskill for free out of combat/raid
hmm
is that tyrael looking one paladin?
yes
wow the sorc one is so basic lol
What type of gear can be tranfered to a reroll ?
Is it worth if i plan to reroll in the future to prepare gear on a similar class at the moment and reroll with the gear when i can ?
we cant put space between the Char names right ?
no
we cannot
if you plan to reroll you should look at a class that shares the same or similar engravings.
Ok i plan to change main to a reaper when the class gets on EU/NA so i need to find what class to play now then transfert engraving ?
Does boss health scales with the number of players ? In a raid or whatever
engravings are server wide
it does in guardians not in raids
what is a crystal of return? is that any different then a triport
Ok so anyone have an idea to reroll as a reaper ? i need to check build and engraving.
Depends on what reaper spec you going for, grab the reaper roll in #navigation and you can ask in the reaper channel
Ok thx i'll check that
Hey guys, ive seen in a video that u can check the korea rankings...like of what inscriptions the player was using etc... does someone know where to check that?
Literally the link that dunz linked right above
Go on ranking and then sort by whatever class you want
Oh, thanks
How long does the daily reset take?
1 second?
Do i need to queue again into the game or can i stay ingame?
Does the party crit buff from deadeye stack with the one from gunslinger ?
No they do not stack
Thanks
Reset simply means all daily quests are available again/you get full rewards. Not an actual reset.
If you stack founders does that mean you get multiple pets? Also do these pets expire?
yes pet stacks, no they don't expire
Is it worth to get the bronze for another pet and the crystalline aura?
No
You can only use 1 pet
1 pet per account or per char?
maybe he want all 3 colors lol
The aura thing is kinda worthless
You can only have 1 pet active at a time, if you want to collect the pet colors then go for it
i figure if you gotta play alts you're gonna want pets on them so you dont gotta deal with picking up
Per account @long prawn ?
the platinum pack doesnt really seem worth over the gold pack just for gameplay advantages hu?
i think pets are server wide
There are free pets
Permanent
Is the free pet slower at picking up?
pets can hive you like +stat, purple one can give 2, what you get is green and as I remember can only have 1
For free as well
How do pets work in the game, other games I play I would usually have to feed a pet and then it gives me a huge stat boost.
Does the same apply here
You activate it and thats it
no, to give stats for 30 days, you have to give it purple thingy
I heard they changed it and made it free perma
Would be great if they did that lol
They give a few percent of one of your base stats and are just grabbing loot basically
yea I played other games where the paid pets pickup faster and stuff too lol
well few percent can be 10%
Which class has more continuous damage, Blaster or Sorceress
I like skill customization potential too
So? Its nothing that will completely be broken and the cost to reroll it is a joke per try
We don't know how it will work exactly, as they have previously said that all the pet features will be part of the aura, the image that is going around that the pet effects say "bonus applied" could easily be shown as they have the aura active, as in other regions you have to sub for both the pet effects and the pet functions
True it could be that
I mean 10% is not just a few percent. Few percent to me is like 1-2%
Hey all, I'm curious if any class has a good build that is good for both PvE and PvP? I'm someone who hates changing my build to swap from one game mode to another, so I'm trying to find setting consistently good in all modes. Im a new player and currently leaning towards playing gunlancer but I have no idea how builds work.
They're pretty akin to one another. Blaster you might deal with missing as projectile travel time is a thing.
Pvp is equalized so you dont even need to gear for it
I like customization potential too
Like blade in RU
You can and have to change skills for pvp and pve
Different build late game agi crit blaster are more continuous dmg
Hi!
In PvP, you are going to be creating a different build entirely, using the fighter's journal (alt+z), where you allocate stats and tripods. This is completely equalized. The swap is automated when you enter PvP modes.
is there any info on the lv 50 boost you get after reaching 50 and doing the quest on your main? or even if its there at all?
If you are completely min maxing it is something but the more stats you have of anything the less it is efficient. Also if you miss out on quality of any access this will have way more impact
Hmm thx
You all
Is there rng loot in lost ark eu
Like boss drop
Bosses have loot tables where you have chances to get certain items dropping, yes.
Oh it's automated? That's very cool. Thank you all!
Hmm okay
You make the build, press save, then never deal with it again. 
When do the streams that give Founders Pack and gifts start ?
https://www.twitch.tv/crown check the about section here
How long does it take to get kicked due to afk?
Changes based on server capacity and traffic
should be 15min if the server has a queue
Is a name class specific locked or for all classes?
do i understand correctly that with the Legends of Lost Ark event each region can only unlock one of the reward types @ 6000, 12000 and 18000 points?
for the whole region
Does anybody know of a website where i can see the different armor sets for each class?
Do skins that you buy from shop need to be bought multiple times if u wanna use them at same time on more then one char or are they unlocked for whole account ?
Depends, some are class specific, others are subclass specific
But they arent account wide
avatars are items that you equip on a character, if you want them on multiple chars use the same avatar at the same time you need to buy multiple. also you can only equip base class avatars on multiple advanced classes.
so I assume u need to trade between them all the time if u dont buy dupes
if its something that can be equipped by multiple of you characters yes
Depends, if you have a mage and a zerk you wont even be able too
There are class specific avatars and subclass specific avatars. It will say it in the shop when you look at it
I know I just hoped I wouldnt need to buy some stuff that I may reuse on other characters multiple times esp if its just 1 piece
Guys, can you help me pick between Scrapper, Wardancer and Deathblade? I want to 1stly focus on 1 character at the beginning. Thank you in advance.
So I will have to limit my self more
There is an server storage you can just quickily put it there before switching chars
picked based on what? just pick something?
I like them all. Just have hard time deciding which to focus on.
Play the three of them then
if you want me to choose for you then Wardancer
I want to focus 1stly on only one character until I beat the game (I will do all side quests as well) as i am not rushing to endgame.
Play deathblade cause booba then
Why?
brooo i have to explain as well 
for party buffs
Well wardancer is prob easier to start with other two are harder to play in raids or may req more investment to start with
There should be a bot that sends that every time someone asks "what class should I play?" 
You don't have to write a wall of text. Just a short reply will suffice 😄
please move this to a different channel if possible, this is not a discussion channel and this will only lead to a lot of talking.
Is there a page where server pop is updated similar to the one here?
Well its a viable option in my opinion.
thanks a lot!
Thank you for the information.
Is this server list based off of beta?
are they all just eggs?
thats borderline misinformation
yes
Its a pet egg
be more specific with the question
as the other guy said, its probably the most straightforward class to play, cant go wrong with this one
With War Dancer?
How are people getting the information about server pops when the game hasn't even come out yet?
The server list statistic is based off of guilds declaring what server they are going to, based off of the revealed servers in the january dev update.
yes wardancer
Thank you.
ah okay, discord staff is collecting the data. more info here:
https://discordapp.com/channels/212635560596996097/513178861375324160/936429954709721138
Wdym ? Sorc needs more boss knowledge, can loss ton of dps if u mess up and is squishy and blade need more setup to make it feel good and u need to be behind enemy and crit fish a lot without proper investment so wardancer out of those is the most new player / 1st to play friendly imo.
sorc? he asked for scrapper, wardancer, and deathblade. scrapper is the easiest to play by far if you go taijutsu, deathblade is the most expensive.
is the platnuim avatar and northen avatar skins legendary skins
no legendary skins are very specific rng skins
are they epic or what level?
You can wear a skin for stats and another for looks, right?
Epic
do you get the key from amazon tommorow if you preordered?
Hello guys, is there a strawpoll for EU servers by any chance ?
Only if you have legendary avatar
My bad idk why I seen sorc :S
isnt wardancer first intention the easiest? just use skills and not worry for anything
are skins upgradable?
No
no
thats basically taijutsu but Infighter is just a bit tankier and probably the most mobile class in the game. also top tier counter
kinda sucks if i like a skin but it wont give me max stats
Who cares about stats. Just make sure u look good killing things.
all of your main stats comes from equipped gears/accessories/etc. not skins
Is Shadowhunter a good pick for someone completely new to the game?
Hey guys I looked up some class videos and so far the most appealing to me are the artillerist gun Lancer and paladin (kinda in this order). Is any of them not new player Friendly?
yes
@cosmic wagon ofc u only need like 2 upgrades for transformantion
Cool, I just want a fast paces/mobile class and this seems to fit
is taitalos supposed to be a lot harder than the other guardian bosses? having a hard time clearing him with randoms
It is super irrelevant
i played artillerist in beta it was really fun but have to know how to aim and set up atks
Discord staff is collecting data about server pops, what guilds intend to go where, et cetera. You can find more info here: https://discordapp.com/channels/212635560596996097/513178861375324160/936429954709721138
do alts share same strong hold
that's good would be annoying to keep upgrading
cheers
All of them are new player friendly and safe picks.
Artillerist might be wonky due to projectile travel speed but you get used to it
Ty
do you get the key from amazon tommorow if you preordered founders?
With both you mean all 3? I mentioned 3 classes :)
does any1 know whats the aprox time for guild to lvl?
I edited, i'm pepega. Battling corona rn, so i'm not as good at reading as I usually am. Sorry!
for example to 40 guild slots?
Tyvm
whats the max number of player slots you can have on a server if buy all slots
Is artillerist okish for pvp or hard lackcluster?
24
Artillerist is an absolute noobstomper.
It will increase in difficulty the better players you face.
You will have alot of fun with it.
artillerist have like the most aoe atks but like i said it takes time and aim to hit them.
Is sorceress good for pvp? I'm not sure if I should blame my hand for being bad at it
Sorc has hard matchups, but is generally a very strong and solid PvP pick. Please consult #pvp-general with sorc-specific PvP questions, as we have alot of talented players in there that can help you.
Is there a way to start a PvP party while on diff servers in RU?
Or do they not have cross server yet?
you can't start group for pvp cross server
What really. Sorry for misinfo
It is cross server in korea iirc will take some time to get to us tho
That's why they are picking a 'pvp' server early. So you can do events like tournaments organized by players.

Hey all, I don't suppose anyone knows if the issue with party members being put onto separate channels/shards when swapping to new zones has been fixed for launch? I was doing some digging and can't see anything that mentions the fix specifically

Yeah premades are cross server in kr
Just a matter of time until the other regions get it
anyone know if creating your own casual guild with just friends would hinder any content, PVE wise?
you need a certain amount for pve guild stuff
Premade PVP is only doable on the same server.
Customs are cross-server.
We'll see how EU handles it
do u know the specifics?
Are skill potions automatically consumed when you earn them? Can't find them anywhere in my inventory
Yes
Cool
the game is released at the same time in na and eu? or a country get it first compared to the other?
It's a global release
Everyone at the same time
ok ty
https://youtu.be/r3va80ctibg?t=491 he hovers over icon which says 'at least 8 players'
Have you thought about creating, or joing, a guild in Lost Ark? Being part of a community is at the center of the game and something everyone should consider. In this video Codiak breaks down the complicated guild features, and walks you through exactly what you need to do to create a guild, and how to keep it moving forward.
0:00 - Intro
0:25 ...
how many bosses are in the 8 man raids
depends on raid
oh yea i watched this, so it's like there are 4 to 8 ppl raids with guild, but u can also pub in someone else's guild that's what i heard - but something that's not answered in here is like, can guild leader also pub? If not can you transfer guild leader to your another character?
I've never heard of this system. Sorry.
no problem
New player here (kinda), I have a question about side-quests. At launch I will use the soulfist but I want my main to be the Lance master that is not available now. If I do the side-quests now on my soulfist (during my first level up) will I lose something like exp or items for my main when it will exit? Just to say but I won't be claiming the adventure tome because I know that some items are account-wide
you dont lose anything?
focus on main quests, unlock dailies and weekiles asap, store mats for your lancer :>
Guys is there any deficit in being on a low pop server if you plan to play for years?
!region
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
what's the point of colour id when you can't copy paste the id?
(outside of hair)
anything thats server specific according to the above list will be harder to find players i guess
Mhh okay. If you have an active guild yourself thats still enough right? Got a debate going in my group atm if we should head for a high or low pop server
hey, are guild names limitations the same as characters pls
they have limitations too, probably the same
Guild is like the only downside, if you got an active guild then you chilling
Pretty much the same but with more characterslength
welp, ty
but how do you know which server will be low pop? 🤨
are secret dungeons a waste of time pre 50?
well if you can join one right away and the others are full with queue its a good indication 
first week doesnt matter, casual andys will leave, it only matters long term
If you want to get to 50 as fast as possible then yeah
Pure guessworking based on what we know of guild statistics.
People are using it as a pointer.
So I should be doing the side-quest on lancer only right?
bro, just do main quests
is side quest only one time? You cant do it on every char?
Side quests are server wide, you dont repeat it for every char
what
No the reason people don't do side quests is because the first time you complete them you get virtue stats and they give very low xp.
So you want to do all side quests only 1 time because of the virtue stats then never again.
You do it for one char and if they gave skill pot or virtue stats all your chars get it
oh okay
Getting to Lv50 is more important than getting nature stats so it's not recommended to do this while leveling.
Side quests also count for the adventure tome, which is also server wide
i think you could technically do the side quests on each char to progress the legacy (RU translation) level no?
a lot of the sides are pretty much on the way of the main story
You can
I am going to do them all anyways so all good for me hahh
Not entirely true. While some side quests, mostly chain quests, are related to Adventure Tome as Another Story there are also the purple quests that many times are Another Story. I guess it would depend on your definition of side.
Yeah but that would add multiple hours to your leveling for virtually no gains.
Oh yeah, I thought we were talking about the chain ones since they are more important
side quests are mainly more for completionist i believe - if your goal is just progress fast as in terms of gear then all u gotta focus is main quest to lv50 - unlock all the goodies, create alts so u can get more stuff to do aka more dailies and weeklies on alts - do them too - store up material for lancer
Most commonly side quests are referred to the single yellow quests and chain quests just called chain quests. But you could technically lump everything that isn't main story quest into side quests.
It's not for completionst. You NEED virtue stats otherwise you won't be able to interact with Rapport NPCs.
And some give skill pots
is there an NA discord channel or server for traveling merchs?
well then if you eventually need the virtue levels i still feel like you save time in the long run by just doing some while you level through story no?
There isn't a single normal yellow side quest that give skill potion though. Only chain quests, again, mostly separated for reasons such as this.
Oh I thought we were lumping everything other than msq as side quests oops
There are variables to consider. There is no right or wrong answer. Getting to 50 ASAP is important to unlock your daily/weekly activities. I'd gladly waste time backtracking rather than miss a full days worth of dailies. When and how people grab their virtue stats and clearing side quests are different. Some will do everything from start. Some will skip all and do everything on an alt, some will backtrack with main
how much is a lot of gold to have in the begining?
literally no one knows
if you don't want to go back to side quests to gather permanent stats later on and if you are not a completionist, just do orange, blue, and yellow chain quests (CHAIN QUESTS not regular yellow ones).
The More the better! Exact amount can't be confirmed yet since it depends on mats price on auction.
1k+ is a good amount to sit on in T1. You shouldn't have to spend any gold in this tier. T2 I'd say 10k+ is comfy then T3 early 100k+ comfy but late T3 we're talking 1m
Is it better to get the game on Amazon or on steam?
No difference
Thanks!
Buying on steam no need to input key, only difference
I think steam if you want to have a easier time refunding the packs if you ever change your mind.
Steam is easy to refund
are market prices in LA fixed or economy driven?
Economy driven
Pre release is at tuesday right?

Thanks Fluffie 😄
okay thanks, does this mean a harder time for more popular classes?
does the daily reward stack method not apply until you acutally unlock dailies?
What is artists main class? Like paladin is warrior so what is artist? Mage?
Specialist
Im guessing that isnt out in NA?
Nope it isnt even out in RU, it came out 1 month ago in kr
So can I still name reserve a name for it? Like can i make a random alt then delete it and use the name on the artist?
Nope
No it doesn't because you haven't missed any dailies
ok ty
Damn it well thanks
I still have the open beta client installed. Should I uninstall it for tomorrow's early dl or just keep it?
There is no reason to keep it, since each build is treated as a separate game by steam
Have you deleted yet???
Thanks.
To copy over the character save from Russia to EU, do you just change the region code to EU (the pinned video didn't cover it for EU unless I am deaf?
The code for EU is USA
Question for the veteran players. Is it viable if my group of friends (8 people) make a guild and get the benefits? Or should we just join a zerg guild?
will Northern Lawmaker skins be tradable?
Well, no. That's why I was asking the question since with a previous MMO (can't remember which), I didn't have to uninstall the open beta client since it was the same one as the release version and they just patched it.
Aight ty
So The Netherlands is blocked right, is it blocked by the "Steam" Store only or IP Blocked?
anyone knows how many hours rush to 50?
Ip blocked
10 ?
ohh dear
Veteran 9-11, new player 12-20
World record is lower than 10, especially with recent updates
I heard someone say that it is 8 and others said it was 10
How do you know if i may ask?
I can't find it anywhere.
Why do you wanna rush to lv50
Someone gifted me the game but oops.
Still have many pulls I could optimise and I didn't have the best luck in this run but at least it recorded this time! I will try to answer as many comments as I can, so if you have any questions about leveling in Lost Ark then feel free to comment below. https://www.twitch.tv/MalthTV

This person apparently did it in 8:32 🤷♂️
does lost ark ever do discounts on royal crystals like how the founders packs are better deals than normal?
guys so i heard that Avatars (skins) are class bound so if i creat a Gunslinger and they release a female hawkeye i can use the costumes on the female version right ?
no so far there was never at KR/RU
hello a bit lost about classes here, dont know what to play :
-i enjoy range gameplay and saw both gunslinger and scooter but triple weapon rotation seems hard to play? scooter seems low damage , well thats what i saw on different gameplays . what range dps is easy to play? no magic
-is bard a healer or more like a support ? can he solo content at the same speed as other dps or he will have more difficulty for solo content ?
- is rogue (blade or reaper) a good survivability and dps class to play and not too hard?
If the costume isnt subclass specific then yes
Can we make our chars tmr or do we have to wait til the 8th?
interesting now i consider Gunslinger over Sorc
Ty
half of those classes you mentioned are not coming to us
Ok ty
what do you mean? im europe sorry
they are not releasing every class to EU region
I mean you can always play sorc and just save the class costumes for the future, there is no eta for female hawkeye, probably 1 year +
oh ye? where can i see what classes are released , ty sory again
official lost ark website
!class

https://www.playlostark.com/en-us/game/classes
im pretty sure there will be server issue.Hard to speed run to 50 xD
y sadly i need to wait a bit longer for a female bow class guess i just safe some costumes i really like
No need to save costume. When a new class is released it's released with a platinum skin for it then. It's highly unlikely it would be added into the chest from release
just checking, but I reckon you cannot recycle a T1 gear to move over the enhancement level to T2, right?
hello, I have a question... is the Account joining a guild or only the character
You can but it's not transferred 1:1
Guild is per character
hmm so whenever you get your T2 pieces, it's smart to just recycle first
Yeah as fogelstrom said the plat skin chest cannot be saved for future classes
thanks
yea i mean event costumes i use the plat one for sorc because i like it
- One of the class engraving of gunslinger locks gun rotation, you can try that and get used to it, then change settings later. Scouter is not as much as ranged as you think
- Support(can buff & heal). It is quite difficult to do solo content unless you get separate dps setting.
- Blade is less squishy but reaper is close combat+squishiest. Both has to attack boss from fixed position so it is quite tough class to main. Quite fun though.
and i heard its 1 of 2 that can be dyed
Yes that is what you do, it's free levels for your new gear since your previous tier gear is now obsolete
"Questions" like these are for #lost-ark-discussions because the "answer" turns into discussions. Same for @steady notch even if you've already had a reply.
@modern saddle thanks you , think i will go blade as a new player, gameplay seems fluid and fun, i assume you ahve to master all 3 weapons as gunslinger to get gut so i will keep it for later
ah ok sorry all
Keep in mind that blade's skills are mostly charging attack. It may seem fluid but it isn't. May be deceiving.
Many major blade build include super charge engraving which is for reducing charge time&dmg of skill
If I buy the Platinum Founders Pack, is the avatar skin that comes with it available for all of my characters or just a single one?
single
So it would be character or class bound?
class
Quick Questions:
How difficult is it to respec?
Technically speaking if X server is going to be the most popular, does that mean it'll just be spread out among more channels?
subclass to be specific
respec are free with no limit
free and easy to respec skills, and channels are created automatically
Is there anyway anyone know of to be able to use a shift modifier on your abilities like Shift - 1, Shift -2 , so on for abilities?
Subclasses have different costumes? So if I have a soulfist and then a striker, I wont have the skins?
you will have either striker or soulfist
yes
Thanks:
And regarding channels, would a High/Over Croweded server then have queue times? Or would everyone just get moved /overflowed to new channels?
some avatars are class specific, so you can use it for soulfist and wardancer, others are subclass specific
