For around every 2 T3 chars that run all abyss, I get around 1 legendary card a week.

dusk veldt
#

Including feiton abyss?

narrow axle
#

All abyss yes

sullen eagle
#

I mean if you have nothing else to do maybe, but else why run abyss for no gold

tulip token
#

Half a card per character per week sounds extremely lucky

echo owl
#

the entire point of the discussion was about cards

narrow axle
#

Because it's fast and free legendary cards

vagrant viper
#

fast i assume we only do which high level char?

sullen eagle
#

disagree. it's time expensive low chance at cards

limpid moth
#

how else do you wanna grind L cards? Fermata/Peyto packs for 0,5%?

vagrant viper
#

low level abyssal with low level char seems inefficent, low gold and slow

spiral thistle
#

You can agree to disagree. I do 50+ Abyss each week because I think it's worth. Everyone plays differently based on the information they possess and time.

echo owl
#

if you say rng packs you’re wasting just as much time if it’s less than a rare rarity you’re opening

narrow axle
dusk veldt
#

It also depends how much you value getting cards

vital schooner
#

How do i know if the voyage event is salvage or killing fish? because I can't progress my astray reputation, the event is mostly killing fish

tulip token
sullen eagle
#

or just autocomplete the task

vagrant viper
echo owl
#

i finish every single abyss feiton under in an hour

narrow axle
#

same drop rate yes, it's quick but not quick enough for some people

echo owl
#

and I got rewarded with a shandi so take that as you will

sullen eagle
vital schooner
spiral thistle
vagrant viper
#

so we can skip low level alt with low level abyssal, assume we dont have carry , coz it takes long

lofty stone
#

Hey if I sent a customer support request on switching my tuxedo to white would that be too much of a request ?

tulip token
narrow axle
dusk veldt
#

If you buy all cards slots do you have enough space for every existing card?

vital schooner
echo owl
#

you buy up to 290 atm

dusk veldt
modern parcel
#

one of my alts Deathblade is almost 1370 and like every char im gonna make 3x4 engraving,there is any good with deathblade?i was think about :
surge,keen blunt,ambush master,adrenaline
or
surge,keen blunt,grudge,curse doll
what you guys thinking?

tulip token
echo owl
#

more than 290 but some of them are unobtainable atm

#

290 should be good enough for now

#

source: I have like 282 or something

native silo
#

where do you get the quest?

limpid moth
vital schooner

#

I plan on having 2 alts , got 1 to 1340 , should I get the other one to 1340 first or push to 1370 ?

have you done ealyns summon purple quest

dusk veldt

are you even aware of that daily purple quest actually

native silo
#

no

dusk veldt
#

will there come more slots later then?

tight whale
tulip token

#

i mean you always have to buy slots and the way I do it is expand as you go

dusk veldt

never atm

#

how do you get a token of protection?

spiral thistle
silent plinth
#

what's weapon quality and is there any way to increase it

native silo
#

where?

vital schooner
echo owl
#

you have a guide quest in vern castle

limpid moth
echo owl
#

actually at this point just do all vern castle purple quests

#

most of them get what you need for south vern

silent plinth
#

oh ok ty :>

native silo
#

how do i return it to the normal way? right now i cant show some quests and stuff

maiden locust
# silent plinth oh ok ty :>

increasing it depends on the weapon - stuff you drop like chaos gear you can just gear transfer to higher quality. crafted stuff needs crafted again

silent plinth
#

ooo

tight whale
#

Ohh I see. Welp.. Any JP players here that can help clarify the sailing co-ops for them? shy

native silo
#

chaos line is that for singleplayer or should i mm if thats possible?

gaunt aurora
tropic lagoon
#

Does anyone know the lost ark site that calculates mari rpices vs auction house

spiral thistle
#

There is no API so that doesn't exist automatically. You have to input values manually.

tropic lagoon
#

I dont mind putting them in manually

spiral thistle
#

Check #info-dump should be minimum google excel for it

spice parrot
#

is there any reason not to autodismantle every legendary gear in T3 rn? I'm 1400

limpid moth
#

you could try to sell the good skill tree tripods on the gear

spiral thistle
gaunt aurora
#

you can set it so it doesn't dismantle tripod stuff though, besides that you can definitely dismantle everything

spice parrot
#

kk good, saves hassle

#

can't pick by item tho, so Ill just autodismantle under epic. Keep legy for abnility stones

spiral thistle
#

Yeah but you introduce new hassle if you are going to track anything above 18 tripods

spice parrot
#

wdym?

maiden locust
#

What city should i use as my main? Artherine?

Because it's annoying to look through tripod gear with tripods for your own build and w/e other build for your class

gaunt aurora
spiral thistle
# spice parrot there's not so many legys

So? It's still annoying if you get a piece with +3 Lv3 tripods and x1 is for your build and the other is for other build. Just makes it annoying. Ofc you can still do it. Each to his own. I'm just telling you it's annoying from my pov.

maiden locust
#

One more question. Which cube enternace should i chose from day 10 login chest?

spiral thistle
#

You always pick T3, picking anything but T3 is just griefing

echo owl

^ or fuse lower level together and sell the higher level i guesss

hushed sleet
#

If I refacet an attack gem, will it always give attack type of skill gem?

rain thistle
#

should I open oreha normal chests with alt ?

rain meadow
#

the only thing i do on the market is sell gh leaps, whatever books i drop, and the occasional accessory drop lol

hushed sleet
#

I think i wasted silver refaceting an attack gem

echo owl
#

rerolling the gem doesn’t change its type

#

fusing the gem up a level is 50/50 for atk/cd

hushed sleet
#

Dang, wasted so much silver

is this abyss gear better than the dimensional gear i have on right now? it says gear 1302, i also didnt get enough of the crafting material when i finished both of the abyss as well?

stark siren

are the mechanics changing now that im moving into t3? do i not always get enough crafting material now?

rain meadow
#

sunset is not good

real shell
#

oh okay, so i just wait til i hit 1370?

#

sheesh thats gonna be a while then lol

echo owl
#

welcome to the hard part of the game

real shell
#

why didnt i get any of the 1370 crafting material?

#

is it because im not 1370 yet so it wont drop?

sullen eagle
limpid moth
#

maybe 1370 drops when you're 1370

spiral thistle
real shell
#

ahh okay i see, thank you

#

so i just use this dimensional rift shit til im 1370?

sullen eagle
#

u get the epic version in chaos dungeons

#

and then use that until 1370 (all +15)

real shell
#

ahh i see, i just didnt do the 1340 chaos yet

#

jesus christ +15..thats gonna cost so much..and this fuckin honing percentages are outrageous now too

pseudo atlas
#

the 1340 gear is not available until 1370 as shown in your image

echo owl
#

like I said welcome to the hard part

sullen eagle
#

1340 to 1370 is a bit of a grind yeah

real shell
#

well i went from 1100 to 1340 tonight, so hopefully it wont be too long lol

sullen eagle
#

you went from 1302 to 1340 you mean

pseudo atlas
#

probably one or two weeks if you use the ark pass mats

sullen eagle
#

1304 actually since u can transfer for +1

pseudo atlas
#

although if you went from 1100 to 1340 in one day i guess you used those ark pass mats or swiped like hell

steep garnet
#

Hi is it bannable offense if i buy the ark pass from a banned country such as belgium or the netherlands?

stark siren
#

banned

#

why you asking if its ok to break the law

inner wing
real shell
#

yeah i used all the mats i was saving lol and i bought a shit load on maris shop

pseudo atlas
#

uh i don't think it's illegal

steep garnet
#

cause i can buy the blue gems and buy items with it tho

stark siren

#

soo just wondering if any1 knows if royal crystals are different tho

pseudo atlas
#

wait what is the law being broken in those countries

echo owl
#

for one rc is a paid currency

sullen eagle
pseudo atlas
#

i see

stark siren
#

so yea dont ask whether its ok to break the law in here, dont wanna get in trouble Deadge

steep garnet
#

idk im already sort of breaking the law by playing it so

stark siren
#

precisely

steep garnet
#

but not in a VPN-ish way lol

#

its just in my library

sullen eagle
pseudo atlas
#

that may be true but nobody here wants to give advice on things that could break any laws (sorry for my earlier ignorance)

sullen eagle
#

I would have to read the law but you are probably not. Gambling laws ban the company from publishing the game, not the user from playing the game @steep garnet

spiral thistle
#

I wouldn't call that breaking the law. It's a gray area because what he wants to buy doesn't contain any rng rewards. Regardless the answer would always be the same because you're playing from an unsupported country.

is there a limit of transferring skill tripod?
i put to inventory, then transfer but fail, i tried to transfer again using the one from inventory but it's not listed

merry reef

you can if you want to, but if you're <t3 you can also just not bother, and if you are t3 but <1370 you can use them for accessories 'cause the crafted gear sucks a lot

ripe relic
# sullen eagle cardsets are a kinda lategame goal

Best road to lategame as a casual? Get whatever main (even if T1) to T3 might be the best route? Based on what responses have been in the past, I should use that Super Express on my 560 sorc even if I've already done some T2 islands?

stark siren
#

is that your only char

pearl bay
#

Was trying to search on reddit or forums but cant find an answer:

If you are below 1400 when doing Argos P3, you take 50% more damage, but is it for everyone below 1400 or does it get higher the higher the ilvl gap? does a 1390 take same damage as a 1380?

stark siren
#

if yes then use it

ripe relic
pseudo atlas
#

don't the islands give roster-bound chest for mats? did you open those already?

stark siren
#

your bard is 302?

inner wing
#

The chests are roster bound while the mats should be character bound

stark siren
#

just use it on your main, at your stage it doesnt really matter which one you use it on

# rough hare Im talking about armors, not accesory

It's the same logic, you need to know what other classes need. I'll give an example again from SH. SH needs to transform fast so tripods that can increase the meter will be expensive but it also depends on the tripod level

do you need to be 1370 to pre made the hard mode t3s too? or is it lower for a premade like other content?

anyoen got a calculator on when to use a set amount of solar mats when honing MudrockNaruhodo

lucid osprey
#

Maxroll has honing calculator

fierce smelt
#

Is there a hardcap on honing, or with infinite resources could you hone T2 gear up into T3? So many of the T3 skins are terrible looking 😦

stark siren
lucid osprey
#

Sadge

stark siren
#

also it gives ridiculous amounts

#

72 books lole

#

and it doesnt even use solar mats

gaunt aurora
#

cause you set the book prices at 0, so it uses all the books

stark siren
#

what price do i set then

spiral thistle
#

Afaik there is no such calculator. Just go by feeling. It's all rng anyway.

stark siren
#

im not buying any books, its all from event

gaunt aurora
#

the price they sell at I guess, but yeah it's not good to figure out free event books

stark siren
gaunt aurora
#

mostly just use for 14-15, and if you have more than that use before too, kinda depends

glacial night
#

If big excess just use at 13

stark siren
#

but how do i know how many i need from 14-15

glacial night
stark siren
#

like say if i saved 30 books for 14-15 and i end up using like 10 then im screwed

maiden locust
#

Then just use it on another character

stark siren
maiden locust
#

Or start using it at +13

ember pewter
#

I thought most people just full juice their weapons anyway from 14 to 15. If you got any leftover free mats use them on your armour or ALTs?

gaunt aurora
#

kinda, so you hone one piece at a time and start using books earlier if you're lucky on the first few

maiden locust
#

It's rng anyways

maiden locust
#

I juice books starting +13

stark siren
wary lintel
#

is there any good spot for foraging on south vern?

stark siren
#

cant win

glacial night
#

Juice when close to next milestone

stark siren
#

i put in the prices and it doesnt make sense

gaunt aurora
#

I mean it's free books you just use them as you go, if you have too many you can use them on alts, if you don't have enough well you don't have enough and wait next week for more books or whatever, there isn't a perfect way to use them because it's RNG, you can keep the "average" amount, like say your base honing is 15%, with book it's 25%, so on average you'd want to keep 4 books but shit can go to pity or work first try so it's pointless to think too hard about it, it is better if you go one item at a time so you can see how it's going better though

stark siren
#

MudrockNaruhodo ok

spiral thistle
gaunt aurora
#

the prices are basically to compare if it's worth using solars or books versus just buying more mats to hone again, it is not useful to figure out what bound mats to use, because they all technically have no value

stark siren
glacial night
stark siren
#

yea but i already have books so it doesnt make sense to not use them

limpid moth
#

i assume you know that t3 books are only for 1302-1370

glacial night
#

Then input lower gold for book

stark siren
#

yea

glacial night
#

Ur leapstone and mat also have no value

normal reef
#

is there a way to check if i have finished the shadowmoon co op quest before

glacial night
#

So ofc its not worth using book if u have infinite leapstone

they're only gonna be worth buying once you hit greater leapstones stuff, can use bound free ones though to make it easier to reach the next treshold(especially 1370)

I have a question, what's the point of creating multiple character? Like you have you main so why bother doing it all again with another one.

Is it beneficial to be at 1445 valtan HM ready when the May update comes out? I saw some people saying you had to do normal first anyways

But if you can't hit i1445 there is absolutely nothing wrong with doing Valtan normal. Just throwing it out there.

Yeah… I’m not totally sure what I’ll do yet. I probably could get 1445. But it would mean one less alt at 1370 most likely. ^^;

#

I’m kind of okay with that, cause like, it would concentrate the content I do to fewer characters

#

But I also don’t know the loot differences between Normal and Hard and whether it’s really worth trying to push.
