What crates do you all buy with una coins? biggest one?

[meager breach]

If I buy a "Yorn Entrance Ticket Chest" from the Sylmael bloodstones vendor will i still have a chance at getting a ticket even if ive never unlocked boss rush before? Im unsure if there is something i need to do to unlock it, or if i just simply need a ticket to start

[gleaming dust]

middle option has the most consistent gold, 3rd option has 1% chance of jackpot

[thorny seal]

My team can't get past Argos p3 and decide to quit. Do I need to claim the rewards for p1 and p2 ?
Can I not claim the rewards ?

I want Argos p3 reward

[uneven robin]

u vote to all take rewards or all doesnt

[gleaming dust]

your team has to vote

[rose jewel]

if you claim you're gonna claim p2 as you didnt finish it, and its a team vote

so if all of you (5, majority) vote no for rewards you can try again

[thorny seal]

Ok thank we just did that

[little socket]

why is there maint?

[ocean parcel]

if you already got your daily from moake, can you still do it for the star?

no

[rose jewel]

there is a maint today because.... yes

i rather have maint everyday from now until 19th than to get a buggy valtan

Why another maintenance lol.. it already happened yesterday

[gleaming dust]

hardware fix

[rose jewel]

i bet that since they never expected this many players to be on the game, they are actually having a hard time when they have like 500k+ daily (ofc bots included), Gol D River stated that he expected like 200k

[slender basin]

Am I the only one who finds it odd how mechanically everything in this game exists on one plane?

[vital schooner]

For NA version.. when you upgrades gears from 302 is only +1?

from 1 to 15

[rose jewel]

unless you have the express event on that character, yes, for now

[warped viper]

Are the balance changes we're getting the 19th going to be the same as the recent balance changes in Korea?

[rose jewel]

yes

[buoyant rune]

yes

they come with destroyer because they got a rework that was pretty important iirc

[warped viper]

Is there a translated version then or do we just have to wait until the notes come out?

[buoyant rune]

google translate works well enough

[rose jewel]

google translate

[vital schooner]

yes I have express but I did not use it yet... cause I want to use it on my DB... So the express is +2, right?

[warped viper]

I woulda thought translate would have been iffy lol

[true chasm]

what 2 engravings should I get for my support alts so I can do p2 argos at 1370?

[rose jewel]

yes, up till +12 or so, then 13 to 15 is 1 by 1

[echo owl]

maxroll has a class balance page

[slender basin]

Is there analysis or just the notes?

[warped viper]

I was just about to comment that xD

[buoyant rune]

btw i assume relic accessories has a higher I level requirement than the current legendary ones right?
to buy them

[rose jewel]

bard is heavy armor and awakening with at least lv1 class engrave, the more the better, pally is awakening and class lv3

gl getting onto parties tho

[buoyant rune]

i've seen argos P3 parties willing to take 1370 i level supports out of desperation before

which is really funny to me

[vital schooner]

ahhh okay... I was just confused. cause in JP our t1 to t2 is +2 from 1 to 13... thanks

[rose jewel]

we're babies still, we'll get there eventually

[vital schooner]

one more question... you can only apply express on 1 character?

[rose jewel]

yep

can't make the full next sets until vykas

[solar elm]

push 1385 to 1415 or get 1351 to 1370?

are there channels for specific servers ?

[stark isle]

not really here, but there is on Saint Bot server

[vagrant venture]

saint bot server ?

[stark isle]

its a server/bot dedicated to tracking travelling merchants https://discord.gg/5eCXk8fT

[vagrant venture]

ooh nice thx

[midnight dove]

Whats what should i use dispatch seals on?
I feel like rapport stuff is dumb, because i can just spam merchants if i really wanted rapport.
Sea Bounties seem like a good idea since its a one time collectible.

But they also sell runes (not anything i need right now) but which ones should i look out for?

[timber mauve]

Card packs, crew, etc. also the runes cost like 25k seals so…

[stark isle]

sailors are good and merchants can also give skill runes you may need

[icy shuttle]

Epic and legend rune on top of some legend sailers

Trust me you dont want to waste on card pack

[slender basin]

Any other servers like this?

[midnight dove]

I got all the legendary sailors for my astray already and some dispatch crews

[icy shuttle]

Legend rune cost 27k

[stark isle]

what do mean by "like this"

[slender basin]

Lost ark bots

[midnight dove]

yeah that seems about right

[spiral thistle]

Get Sea Bounties out of the way unless you need a rune imo.

[midnight dove]

which rune is it?

[stark isle]

not to my knowledge, there isnt much mroe you would need bots for

[spiral thistle]

I don't know what runes you have or need.

Mostly people care about rare Wealth and epic Focus

[slender basin]

I thought so, but I figured there might've been something

[icy shuttle]

Rune is like permanent unlock so is always good to have it cuz eventually you might need it on one of your classes

[civic mesa]

how do i get more virtue points aside from rapport and islands?

[spiral thistle]

https://papunika.com/virtues-stats/

[finite salmon]

Oh alright also does replaying sidequests on alts get you virtue points as well or?

[gleaming dust]

no

[spiral thistle]

No, all virtue points are 1-time reward only

where did i get this from?

[short forum]

Probs from a chaos dungeon gold room.

That's where I got mine from. I think it also may drop from some adv islands too? Idk

Also a question for the relic support set, will it affect all 8 members of a raid or only the group memebers the support is in?

[royal pier]

i pooped it out and mailed it to u

[stark isle]

bruh

[timber mauve]

All effects are party specific for the most part.

[short forum]

Yeah, was wondering if this would somehow be an exception but seems most likely not.

[maiden locust]

if bots play the game by themself y dont they mount up it dont make sense

[lament crater]

Is it worth it to hit LoS 12 with select packs since it's going to be a long time trying to get to LoS 30?

[timber mauve]

No

[vital schooner]

I just bought gold from the shop... when/where do I receive it?

[timber mauve]

LoS is pretty useless until 18 awakening. We’ve seen a few select packs in a couple months. KR has seen a few in the past year.

[lament crater]

Got it thanks 😊

[long blaze]

there should be little tab that you click adn then claim ur gold

[timber mauve]

From the cash shop or the una token thing?

[vital schooner]

shop

[sour summit]

how do you get npc's in your stronghold ?

[timber mauve]

History button on the currency exchange.

[sinful sigil]

oh well. i guess ill just sleep like a normal person.

gym time for me i guess,but i wonder why the maint,any new patch note?

[sinful sigil]

yeah

[sour summit]

what are nineveh amiable virtue requirements ?

[brittle fog]

Prepping for next wek update

[brittle fog]

230 everything

[cloud pendant]

is there a way to skip argos and go sraight to Valtan when its out?

[icy shuttle]

I mean cant they do that... yesterday maybe? With longer maint ?

[brittle fog]

I mean technically you can but why

[cloud pendant]

because i do not want to gear for argos and then huntt gear for valtan

[icy shuttle]

Imagine fighting Valton with none argo set.
You're looking for some hard carry here
Oreha set sucks

[cloud pendant]

right now i havent reach argos yet 😛

[topaz plover]

do we have sources for how much of what you can buy from hardmode chaos line?

[cloud pendant]

well then it's not catered for new players then?

[brittle fog]

It’s not that expensive to gear for Argos and also yeah you’ll lose out a good amount of dmg if you don’t and don’t get the argos set. Also Valtan gear takes even longer to gear and relic accessories are even more expensive.

[icy shuttle]

I mean you need to mix set with Argos anyway.
Plus you're basically just a leecher who ask for carry if you want to fight Valton with trash set.

[mint heath]

anyone know highest virtues needed for thirain rapport?

[icy shuttle]

If i'm a party host i 100% kick

[brittle fog]

180 everything

[cloud pendant]

So what’s the difference between Argos and valtan set? Beside the effects

[mint heath]

thanks

[brittle fog]

At 1415 there is no difference besides the set effects. Only 1445 for relic set

[icy shuttle]

Same stat as far as ik but Valton has relic tier no?
Not sure if it's available for us yet, that's 1445 ?

The thing is we wont be able to get 6 set Valton yet so must mix 2 piece argos

[brittle fog]

You can only craft relic set at 1445 so you’d be using the legendary 2 pc from Valtan if you want to do that but I’d just stick with Argos 5 set until 1445

[icy shuttle]

We missing 1 legion raid

[brittle fog]

Only worth to break Argos 5 set with relic imo

[pallid panther]

guys is worth it to level up alts to 1370 ? like talking about gold profit. I've 3 chars 1370+ and 5 1340 (That i use 3 cause abyss limit)

[icy shuttle]

Do 1415 valton mat work for 1445 relic set?

[brittle fog]

Nope. Separate mat.

[icy shuttle]

gg then what's the point of doing normal valton

[maiden locust]

so i have a question regarding my main.

Currently i have a 1385 Sorcerer main, 1333 glavier, 1000 zerker, 560 gunlancer and 520 artillerist.

the thing is, i want to make my artillerist to be my new Main, so the question is, should i use my gunlancer to funnel T1 mats to him, then my zerker with T2, then my glavier and sorcerer with T3? or should i just progress them separately as normal?

usually i'd do them separately but i've decided that i want to make artillerist my main, and my 1st character to use for Valtan (if i ever reach there)

[brittle fog]

Normal Valtan drops relic accessories and 2500g and honing mats still. And you can get legendary set in prep for when you hit 1445 for 2/2/2 setup @icy shuttle

[round sluice]

I feel like it's probably more value to farm at current ilvl, sell those mats and buy back the ones u need? like GHL will go for 130 ish gold, and u can buy 1300 stone fragments with those

you will mainly be capped by shards tho so push to t2 before the event ends

[maiden locust]

idk what GHL is

[round sluice]

great honor leapstone

also did you use express pass on your gunlancer? that would help you tremendously

[maiden locust]

i used it on my sorc lol, and i cant change char because i've "used the honing increase chance" even though my sorc was 1100 at the time

[dusk veldt]

And do tower on your artillerist for shards

[round sluice]

oh rip

[pallid panther]

T1 mats are cheap, i would level up both to t2, then do the funnel thing

[maiden locust]

yes i've been grinding tower non-stop everytime i go up 20 ilvls, the shards are still nowhere near enough

[brittle fog]

Yeah I’d farm mats to make gold rn instead of pushing past t3. Pushing to t2 is good since t1 is cheap and you need a lot of life shards for t2 upgrades without express buff.

[maiden locust]

my main issue is with shards, i always run out of them and they're really hard to get outside of events (bring back grand prix )

like, both my gunlancer and artillerist have the stones but not the shards, its like 1-2 upgrades then i need a whole day to get the shards back, then 1-2 upgrades, hence and repeat

[round sluice]

yep.. you will be mainly time gated by chaos shards

[tulip token]

You get some relic set mats from normal as well @icy shuttle

[pallid panther]

for upgrading a relic set you have to farm new mats ?

like destruction / guardian

[maiden locust]

so start funneling once my gunlancer and artillerist reach T2?

[sullen eagle]

do tower

[maiden locust]

its really really not enough lol

[pallid panther]

@maiden locust What material you're missing ? exatcly

[maiden locust]

shards

[pallid panther]

@maiden locust Sure, did you got the level high enough on pass ? even the free pass give some shards, like 30x pack of each

[hardy panther]

Hello! Does this mean I've completed these? I checked if I had done the quests and says ive done them, but it's confusing because is grayed out

[pallid panther]

Yeah it would be gray otherwise.

[maiden locust]

well i didnt use the pass on him, because i made this character like 3 days ago

[pallid panther]

Not talking about the express, but about the pass itself

[earnest otter]

hi i was just wondering but what is the best way to earn combat levels after 50? I finished punikka a while back and im at a lost for how people raise it to 55 and beyond

[tulip token]

Play a lot

[maiden locust]

oh the pass was for my sorc, i needed it to reach 1385

[primal condor]

play the game do ur dailies and boss rush/cubes

[round sluice]

oh you could also do feiton chaos gate for t2 maps, could use those shard bags, you would lose out on some rift shards but it's not much

[pallid panther]

Yeah but shards arent worth it, cause its 30x harmony shard, 30x life shard or 5x honor shard.

[earnest otter]

o alright so its just a slow process that ill naturally get as i do my dailies and stuff?

[maiden locust]

well it's a little bit late for that isn't it lol

[pallid panther]

So if shards are your problem with alts, you should be opening 30x t1 / t2 shards, and buying honor (cause they are a lot cheaper)

[sullen eagle]

yes

[primal condor]

yep levelling is slow just keep up with ur dailies

[earnest otter]

okay thank you!

[primal condor]

i dont waste bloodstones / pirate coins on xp pots

[maiden locust]

actually i do have some shard chests saved up, i completely forgot about them

[sullen eagle]

please dont

[primal condor]

and im lvl 57

[pallid panther]

You can also do t2 guardian raids / chaos on your alts to funnel more materials to push your artilherist to t3.

I did like 5 alberhastic t3 runs with rest bonus and got 40 life leapstone each.

[maiden locust]

like, my T3 alt to do t2 guardian raid you mean?

[sullen eagle]

you are better of doing night fox and selling the g leaps then buying t2 mats than farming t2 guardians

[pallid panther]

im suposing his alts are bellow 1370+

[maiden locust]

yes, highest alt is 1333

[round sluice]

yeah definitely keep doing yoho on your 1385 sorc

[pallid panther]

nacrasena isnt worth it anyways

so it would be wise to use on alberhastic or igrexion

for money profit

[round sluice]

sorry @earnest otter wrong reply

[earnest otter]

hahaha np np

[round sluice]

so one more thing, at a certain stronghold level I think you unlock a "training camp" which allows you to passively level up alts to 1 lower than your main. So if you have a lvl55 main, you can get alts up to lvl54 etc

[primal condor]

dont worry about lvls itll happen gradually over time

[earnest otter]

alrighty

[round sluice]

true, like 10 life leapstones vs 2-3 honor leapstones? I think that's worth

[earnest otter]

o and one more thing about gold other then una tokens and the weekly abyss dungeons are there any other good ways of getting gold? im finding myself too poor to hone D:

[round sluice]

oh also push this to 1340 so u can clear Oreha's normal for 900 more gold

[sullen eagle]

it's level 52 on any char to unlock it

[maiden locust]

i can technically do the 2nd one if i make the party

[brittle fog]

Don’t do that if you’re not 1340. Just a jerks move

[maiden locust]

they usually know that i'm 1333

[brittle fog]

Doesn’t mean you should do it

[maiden locust]

yes i will

[brittle fog]

yikes

[round sluice]

unless ur support/gunlancer just finish it to 1340 lol it's not that bad

[prime anchor]

hey

stuck at 1360 for a while now, should i push my alt 1302-1325 or should park where is it? any advise? currently only have 1 t3 alt, 1t2, 2t1..

[maiden locust]

i am pushing it to 1340 though, lol

[fallow acorn]

1500g*

[brittle fog]

It’s 900 since he’s 1333 so he already can clear first abyss dungeon

[round sluice]

i would say get alts to t3 1302 for pirate ship merchant, maybe bloodstone shop (u can buy on all) but don't level them past 1325, since you get honing buff once main hits 1385

[fallow acorn]

First gives 600 only if normal

[brittle fog]

Yea we’re talking about normal abyss

[round sluice]

yes, first gives him 600 at 1333, I was saying if he goes to 1340 he gets 900 more

[sullen eagle]

rerolling is more expensive each level, that's what you are missing

[maiden locust]

yeah i am pushing it to 1340, the reset was yesterday so i didnt want to lose the gold, so i made a party and they happily tagged along

[south prawn]

bro look at the market and see whats more profitable, nothing else

[round sluice]

not too sure about those prices (i made a chart it's outdated now) but are you checking price history of sold items, not buy out?

[crude ginkgo]

guys can someone tell me the base honing rates for argos and hm abyss gear ? i see in a website that it says for +9,+10,+11 it's 30%, for +12,+13,+14 it's 15% and for +15 it's 10% but it's supposedly for 1302 to 1370 gear, it this valid for 1370 to 1415 as well ?

[sullen eagle]

you can't just sell any gems, they have to be desirable ones, and rerolling as I said is more expensive each level. that's why for sellers is more efficient to stop and sell at 3

[fair mantle]

1302-1370 same pattern as 1340-1400

[round sluice]

so, at 1370 you get legendary gear, then your level is set back to 1370 +6 and you get 60%, 45% and 30% chance to get to 1385. so it's a bit easier than the 1355-1370 push (equivalent to 1325-1340)

[prime anchor]

thanks! its really helpful, btw im stuck at 1360, should i invest into solar blessing sonar protection those?

[crude ginkgo]

@fair mantle @round sluice so those are correct ? 30% for +9,10,11; 15% for +12,13,14 and 10% for +15 ?

[regal nymph]

jerry u end up having to rely on artisan energy to level up

[brittle fog]

If that is the market price for lv 3 and lv 5 for your server consistently then it’s better to sell lv 3 gems. They might take longer to sell than lv5 though since ppl are looking into upgrading their gems to prep for Valtan.

[regal nymph]

it how the game works

[prime anchor]

so just continue honing until hit 1370?

[fair mantle]

Yes

[regal nymph]

yeah but bad news for when u hit 1370 - it gets worse

[tulip token]

Once the game is back up all that stuff is available in the codex

[regal nymph]

1370-1385 is a nitemare unless u spend real money in game

[crude ginkgo]

oh i didn't know the rates are available in the codex

[prime anchor]

omigo..

[round sluice]

hmm I would say probably not worth since the material cost per tap is cheap. only time worth using solar at that point is to ensure your next hit is 100% artisans. Example: you are 88 artisans and your tap gives you 11% = 99%. you use solar to make sure you get 100%

[fair mantle]

[crude ginkgo]

the over +15 rates are also shown there ? @tulip token

[tulip token]

Yes

[regal nymph]

your success rates are low so expect a lot of fails

[prime anchor]

oh.. make sense..

[round sluice]

nah 1370 to 1385 is ez af, try getting to 1400 or 1415 lol

[fair mantle]

It's literally 60,45,30 from 1370-1385

[prime anchor]

so event honing book save for 1370?

[round sluice]

wait no pls use all your honing books, they don't work past 1370

[fair mantle]

It doesn't work after 1370, those ones come with Valtan

[prime anchor]

oh i see!

[regal nymph]

kk its easy - my bad - you will see yourself when you get there 🙂

[fair mantle]

I've crossed it long ago wdym LMAO

[brittle fog]

Ppl recommend you to sell at lv 5 usually because it’s a way for you to “reroll” your gems while you’re working on your own gem upgrades. When you fuse to lv 5 and didn’t get the skill you wanted, you put it on market and try again. This way you don’t lose silver in the process.

[round sluice]

I have a 1415 and a 1385, it's not that bad. 1370-1385 is equivalent to 1325-1340 in terms of honing chances

[fair mantle]

^

[maiden locust]

may i ask what's the use of silver if people are not gonna waste it on gems? (apart from adventure tome stuff)

[fair mantle]

Honing

[brittle fog]

Honing your gears

[maiden locust]

you need that much for honing? idk i always feel like i'm not using a portion of my silver when honing

[brittle fog]

Look at silver cost it’s a lot. And it gets worse.

[fair mantle]

When your main is high and you need to hone a lot of alts the silver disappears in an instant

[rough prawn]

is there a 16 team raid?

[upper river]

i guess rip login rewards

[rough prawn]

so 8 is max correct?

[round sluice]

super unrealistic for most of us f2p or budget, but this is a +25 ancient silver cost on weapon honing lol

No one's getting +25 ancient lul

[round sluice]

that's what you think 😉

[maiden locust]

[rough prawn]

Relic then ancient yes?

[brittle fog]

Ah. I was just explaining why ppl would tell you to sell at 5 instead of 3. But my previous advice still holds. Sell lv 3 if it’s more gold than lv 5 and you need the gold.

[dark topaz]

Why is there a hotfix today?

[round sluice]

I 1 tap the 1% ez

[rough prawn]

Wait wait ancient set? is that after relics?

millions silver honing

Ancient is after relic yes

The white background gear

[brittle fog]

Prep for next week update according to the note #announcements

[rough prawn]

ty

[brittle fog]

Also another thing to add is that the system has been giving us millions of silver so that's why you don't see your silver going down dramatically but once it stops you'll feel the difference.

[maiden locust]

that is true, yeah

[dull fog]

i just wish artist and scouter comes out asap

[rough prawn]

Just to double check when do you guys recommend using the solar graces and the 2 other things?

only save if i can full juice?

currently 1350 if that matters

[round sluice]

general rule of thumb, full juice weapons. if you want to get into specifics of only using solar graces and stuff, check out oilyark.com

[round sluice]

I would probably save your solars for 1385+, and use event honing books for now if you have

[rough prawn]

Aight thank you brother gus

[brittle fog]

And generally you want to use them when your honing chance is like 30% or higher after 1370 since you get the most value out of them.

[rough prawn]

Can some1 send the 1370 cheese?

[brittle fog]

Or for when you need to reach 100% artisan

[rough prawn]

Like how should i hone my sht when i reach 1370

[rough prawn]

Okay okay thank you

[rough prawn]

ty

dem do u guys think its possible to reach 1370 this week

prolly not huh

[low trail]

how high are you?

[rough prawn]

1354 to be exact and no alts on t3

[round sluice]

you could get really lucky like me and 1 tap everything from 1365 to 1370, you never know (:

[rough prawn]

On god its just a 50/50 afterall no cap

[hushed mist]

Will there be a way to turn off sidereal animations? Or make them smaller? I don't want Wei to literally just cover half a screen with his body when doing the orb mechanic on wolf...

[maiden locust]

i pitied my glaviers' weapon at pre-1340

[idle mortar]

how many hours till server back online

[eternal zenith]

4 maybe

[regal wing]

Servers are down again?

[sullen eagle]

not that I know of - anyways the skill is fast and does the stagger check for you

It's the estimated average cost of materials and gold/silver for the respective ilvl push you see in there.

[brittle fog]

Realistically probably not for another week or 2 depending on how much mat we get from the new event.

[rough prawn]

New event??

[brittle fog]

Yea May update one

[rough prawn]

Is that another powerpass/express?

[keen veldt]

no

[rough prawn]

Any idea on the event? as to what it has

[maiden locust]

Quick question, my little sister has a old pc and play lostark with 20 FPS xD? so i wanted to ask if Lost ark is allowed to be played on like "Shadow Cloud" / "Maximum Settings" a Virtual Machine like Cloud gaming

[last imp]

ye u can play on geforce now

[gleaming sable]

I think it got added to GeForce Now 2 weeks ago

[keen veldt]

Geforce cloud gaming yeah

[maiden locust]

Ah nice but isnt Geforce time limited?

thought it was restricted to play for a certain amount of time

[last imp]

u can pay ten bucks a month to play as much as u want i think depending on ur region

[maiden locust]

okay sounds good yeah she needs some distraction making her game addicted seems good to me

[low trail]

[pallid panther]

Guys. How worth is it to get an alt to 1370 ? Talking about Gold profit

[keen veldt]

absolutely, if your main is atleast 1385 with stronghold buff

[pallid panther]

Ive a 1400 main farmin great leap for valtan

[echo owl]

your ROI is about 3-6 weeks if you push a 1340 to 1370

[pallid panther]

Not sure How much Gold i would get more in 1370 than 1340

[keen veldt]

Much more

oreha hard and argos alone gives over 5k+

[echo owl]

you make more in 1370 eventually which I said 3-6 weeks in that same timeframe

[pallid panther]

How much oreha hard gives

[echo owl]

also push if you have bound leaps, the cost is much more if you don’t have bound leaps

[keen veldt]

you also can do Yoho for great leapstones and sell them, 90 each here in EUC

[pallid panther]

And would i open chest ?

[keen veldt]

yes

on hard oreha and argos

[pallid panther]

So.. oreha hard + argos + greater leaps - chests equal = ?

Normal abyss is like 1500 If im not wrong

[echo owl]

900 + 1200 + leaps depend - 1100 from all chests

lets say you do 2x yoho every day for a week and they sell for 100g each that’s about 4200g

[pallid panther]

So the profit comes from Fox not exactly the abyss

[echo owl]

it comes from materials in general being overpriced mostly yes

[keen veldt]

mostly, yes but dungeons are still solid

chance to get good accessories that sells well

[pallid panther]

Even with valtan they Will still be a thing ?

[sullen eagle]

g leaps?...yes

[keen veldt]

what will be the same ?

[sterile mantle]

Does rest bonus affect drops during the chaos dungeon fight? or it only affects reward you get at end?

[last imp]

mats? yeah they will skyrocket

[keen veldt]

leaps ? they probably go further up

[sullen eagle]

drops

[echo owl]

both

[pallid panther]

So its a time invesment

[keen veldt]

other way around, only the fight rewards, not the rewards at the end

[last imp]

its 5000 great leaps to pity from 22 to 23 on weapon lol

[keen veldt]

you dont go over 21 weapon

[sterile mantle]

@keen veldt 😄 well you get silver 2x at end 😄

[last imp]

and whales will go for that

[pallid panther]

But doing a Fox on 1370 alt does take a while. I Think the ideal would be make a support alt

[sullen eagle]

wdym takes a while -u mm and get a party instantly

[echo owl]

it takes 5 mins per run avg

[keen veldt]

not really, i have 4 1370 alts and fox kills are 4 mins average

[pallid panther]

You do with people from your ilv ?

[keen veldt]

i dont know, i just matchmake it

[sterile mantle]

my longest battle on alt doing mm has been 7mins

[sullen eagle]

you might get the unlucky x4 1370 but most times there are one or more 1400+

even with 4 1370 if they stay on target u down him in like 10mins top

[pallid panther]

Hmm. So i have that 1340 sorc with 700 bound leaps.

[icy shuttle]

Do we have a class balance patch detail posted somewhere on the internet/ discord?
I want to know the exact changes but the official site post is pretty much useless.

[keen veldt]

if you have the stronghold buff, 700 is enough

[pallid panther]

Thats is the consideration

[echo owl]

maxroll

[sullen eagle]

maxroll has them: https://lost-ark.maxroll.gg/news/elgacia-class-balance-patch-update-final-version

[keen veldt]

Check maxroll, theres english translation

[icy shuttle]

Thank you, glad i asked

[pallid panther]

Im also leveling up another bard. But It Will take a while to get leaps

Ive arround 150 on her only

Btw. Can i do 1340 abyss besides the 6 limit ? I know about reward. It would be to help friends

[echo owl]

you can do it on all your characters yes

just be aware of the first 6 gold reward watermark

[sullen eagle]

you help yourself since you can drop leg cards

[pallid panther]

Because if i get 1370 i was worried about not playing with them

[dapper geyser]

Hold the fuck up, does PVP give you mats?????

[echo owl]

yes

[sullen eagle]

the vendor does

[pallid panther]

More as your ranking increase

[dapper geyser]

BRO... I thought pvp was just smth separate

[sullen eagle]

the proving grounds weekly also gives good g leaps

[pallid panther]

It is.

[dapper geyser]

Sucks too bc the pvp is ass in this game >_<

[sullen eagle]

is not bad imo

[pallid panther]

I enjoyed PvP First month

Now Just pro players playing

[dapper geyser]

Dude it feels like high elo Mortal Kombat. You never touch the ground if you get hit once. Hit first, kill first.

[pallid panther]

It would be worth it to do 1370 Fox with rest bonus ? I dont want to burn out. Forgot to put that in consideration

[sullen eagle]

it's a 50% loss in efficiency

[keen veldt]

always worth, never burn yourself out

[last imp]

just do one run per day if u cant do it twice

[dapper geyser]

Btw even tho it's ass, how many greater leapstones can you get from pvp weekly if your rank is like above average

[keen veldt]

its a game you play for enjoyment, not to torture yourself

[pallid panther]

I can do 2 chars fox a day. More o feel like a chore

[last imp]

28 from shop and 11 from weekly iirc

[sullen eagle]

then do 2. games should be to enjoy them, not to have them as another job

[pallid panther]

But i usually can do chaos on all since o like It.

[dapper geyser]

Is that 28 weekly daily or perma?

[last imp]

weekly shop reset

[dapper geyser]

Ah ok ty bro

[last imp]

np and ye but if you dont like pvp, i dont know if its that worth to you since it can get annoying haha

[pallid panther]

Im considering. My sorc Just dont feel like It does dmg on 1340.

Ill do the calculations

[glacial scarab]

sorc no dmg.... really?

[pallid panther]

At 1340.

[sharp galleon]

wait so their doing another hotfix after the hotfix.....?

[keen veldt]

no, they doing hotfix, they did maintenance yesterday

[errant minnow]

server dead?

[keen veldt]

yeah down for hotfix

[ebon marsh]

5hrs hotfix

[sharp galleon]

[onyx swift]

😦 i wanted to ask this

[errant minnow]

gross, sleep time

[keen veldt]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-sleep-gif-23970142

[errant minnow]

everyone go sleep, lets be humans again

[marsh flax]

anyone know if you can reenter valtan after clearing for the week?

[keen veldt]

no ? why would they able to do that

[marsh flax]

... because it's fun? LOL

[errant minnow]

get alt to 1415!

alt(s)

[steel ruin]

Can someone give me advices for honing? Im 1399 atm with 10/14/10/14/10/13, guess i get the other peaces to 11 and then go for 17 shoulders and hands? And when and where should is use blessings etc?

[keen veldt]

for 1415

or 2x17/12

[errant minnow]

i do 2x 17s

[hybrid oak]

same

[keen veldt]

i did too 👍

[onyx swift]

:)lol i'll do:)

[errant minnow]

less brain damage

[steel ruin]

ok and what about blessings and protections?

[errant minnow]

still brain dmging tho, gl

[hybrid oak]

gloves and pauldrons for dps. chest and pants for supports

[keen veldt]

always use bless and protect for weapon

[drifting marlin]

hello sorry for repeated qusetion , i just joined , is lost ark server dawn ? and when it will be up

[hybrid oak]

https://oilyark.com/calc

[keen veldt]

2 more hours

[vocal flower]

if ull keep ur weapon at +11 ur very likely to have a stupid amount of leftover bound red stones accumulated over time. No reason not to hone ur weapon higher than that

[errant minnow]

armor pieces, i do it around 14/15+ , but maybe u can test the water first few hones b4 u go full solars

[vocal flower]

i got my weapon from 11-15 yesterday quite literally just by using bound/ark pass stuff lol

[keen veldt]

yep got mine to 17 with bound and ark pass stuff too

[vocal flower]

its also quite damn cheap cuz i calculated its like 12k to tap, but 2500 gold roughly to double the odds

[steel ruin]

do you use protection also for armor or just graces and blessings?

[dusk veldt]

why would they be bound?
What drops bound red stones

[vocal flower]

so with average luck its not even THAT expensive to upgrade ur weap assuming average luck of 4-5taps

[vocal flower]

Ark pass

[keen veldt]

preferably not, but if you have some after honing your weapons, sure

[dusk veldt]

wh y would you open them

[steel ruin]

aight, thanks for the advices

[vocal flower]

... why not?

[dusk veldt]

if you're not gonna use it lol

[keen veldt]

why would you open them

[dusk veldt]

Then open on alts that will use them

[keen veldt]

what kinda question is that

[onyx swift]

XD

[vocal flower]

u talk as if my alts need them and arent 1370+ alr smh

if ur using the optimal 1415 route of +11 weapon ull always have leftover red stones

[dapper geyser]

What do ppl use pheromone bombs for in Night Fox Yoho?

[onyx swift]

but you can burn those before upgrade to new set no?

[echo owl]

to save my surge stacks

[keen veldt]

so that it doesnt move around ?

[vocal flower]

Pheromone bomb prevents the boss from running away. that applies to every boss

phero > flare

[dapper geyser]

Oh lol I thought it had a specific mechanic :p ty

[vocal flower]

basically u should replace ur flares with pheros if ur camping yoho

and ESPECIALLY if ur still at igrexion

and dont let ppl convince u its not worth it cuz "yohos map too small anyway". stop being cheap c:

[dapper geyser]

Bruh I do not mind the walk xddd

[pulsar swan]

how does 1234 position work in argos? at first we all assigned positions for every party but now suddenly everyone skips that and just types 1234 assuming everybody knows what it means
That north, east, south and west thing doesnt really make sense when safe spots are on 1 line

[vocal flower]

well u should, cuz doing that every day on multiple chars saves hours very quickly

[modern parcel]

ye but weap dmg going very high from +15 to +16

[echo owl]

the middle is argos you then apply compass directions from there

[vocal flower]

1n 2e 3s 4w

[echo owl]

it’s not that complicated

[vocal flower]

the alternative is x3 which basically means ur party number times 3 = ur position on the clock

so 1 would go 3o'clock (east) etc

just make sure to clarify which one ur using cuz if u use both at once ull wipe some ppl

[scenic blade]

Notice

This channel is for requesting help for in-game issues.
This channel is not for general discussion

[pulsar swan]

that alternative is the same thing with different name tho?

[echo owl]

almost the positions are shifted clockwise by 1

[pulsar swan]

ah yes, it doesnt start from north

[errant minnow]

time is money when using phero bombs lol

that's like one of the main items i craft almost everyday lol

[iron moon]

Hey are u guys hyped for the Lost Ark event thats happening?

[errant minnow]

what event

[iron moon]

Maintenance

[errant minnow]

lol yea got me excited to go sleep, gnite

[fair bobcat]

[iron moon]

lol

[fair bobcat]

sleep is for the weak bro.

real gamers break the sleep cycle and do not get debuff from no sleep.

[iron moon]

hes casual, building up that rested XP

[dapper geyser]

Dude wtf is the droprate on epic galewind runes? Haven't gotten one yet smfh

[iron moon]

The higher level your stronghold the better luck uy get

[fickle kraken]

how much longer is the downtime?

[iron moon]

You mean the Lost Ark event?

[fickle kraken]

y

[iron moon]

its been 3 hours and 19 minutes since the Lost Ark event started and it was stated to take 5 hours

[fickle kraken]

oh.

so at 1300.

thx

[iron moon]

I live in Kazachstan

So 9pm for me

[safe light]

oh another update.. i was wondering why my game isn't opening :V

lets hope they fix some connection issue as well

[narrow summit]

What's the stronghold level has to do with the rate on runes ?
Asking because I have no idea how you obtain runes.

[hoary cedar]

you obtain runes from stronghold merchants through unas, and adventure tomes

[iron moon]

Nah i was just kidding. But I noticed im pretty luckly in this game and my stronghold is highj level

[hoary cedar]

i dont think sh level has anything to do with it, but some story progression does. aka in order to unlock feiton merchant you need to do feiton

[narrow summit]

I am at 1385 and I still have no idea how to get runes :))

[hoary cedar]

i literally just told you how.

[iron moon]

Are u talking about life skills runes?

what are runes?

[narrow summit]

I am talking about combat runes like Galewind

[iron moon]

Ohh, I noticed thats theres ways to get galewind but not the epic of legendary one

[hoary cedar]

.

[rain gulch]

You can check the ingame codex, each rune has a specific source

[narrow summit]

But those are only green.

[hoary cedar]

no they can go up to legendary

[onyx badge]

you get purple/blue galewinds from guardian raids

[rain gulch]

you can unlock better stronghold merchants through quests

[floral kite]

does anybody have the kr link for the neria's shop we're gonna get on 19?

[narrow summit]

I have done Guardian Raids from the start of the server and I only got 1.
1 in 3 months is not a good droprate

[late helm]

You can get blue/purple and gold ones (south vern's merchant gives legendary conviction, for example)

[narrow summit]

What kind of quests ?

[rain gulch]

most are from adventure tome

it will give you an item that starts a quest

[sly flame]

mostly 70% or 80% adventure tomes, and some una task reputation

[desert cove]

what are the best methods to get gold? i got my first t3 character and a couple t1 t2 ones, and i only gots 2k

[narrow summit]

And this will upgrade the things in the merchants in the stronghold ?

[dire torrent]

In KR do you get other class engraving drops on jewelry or can you only ever get your own class?

[sly flame]

https://lost-ark.maxroll.gg/resources/stronghold-guide here it shows you how to get every single one, scroll down to the list of merchants

[sly flame]

you get others

[narrow summit]

Thank you.

I've got tons of Guild's Invitation but never clicked on them :)))

[onyx badge]

May be wrong but I think each rune is tied to that tier of guardians

ie. if you got the level 5 guardian galewind, you can't get another from those

[sly flame]

once you get that specific rune from guardian you can not get it again

[onyx badge]

it's specifically the guardian or the tier the guardians are in?

[sly flame]

there is a limited number of runes

1 per each level

[onyx badge]

yea

[sly flame]

1 green, 2 blue, 2 purple is what you can get

[onyx badge]

sorry when I said tier I meant level

[modern parcel]

its hard to unlock awaking skill 2nd?

[narrow summit]

I had no idea that's a thing.
Also, reading through the runes available at SH Merchants, there are just 3 runes worthwhile.
Where can you get the others ? Like Legendary Galewind

[sly flame]

no its just time consuming quest line, 2-3 hours

[brittle fog]

Or use Feiton powerpass

[eternal zenith]

what's the website that let you check the server status ? Please tell

[sly flame]

https://lost-ark.maxroll.gg/resources/skill-rune-collection-guide :) list of all available and where to get

[modern parcel]

ok and if i have 12 chars,i need to do the quest for all chars or only once?

[onyx badge]

idk about legendary but if you want a 2nd purple galewind, I suspect it would be from level 4 guardians

[maiden locust]

if you dont need the rewards from 2nd awakening questline just use feiton powerpass

[narrow summit]

@sly flame @onyx badge can I check if I got the rune drop from the guardians ? I only have 1 purple galewind but I have no idea where I got it from

[onyx badge]

if you already t3 on all your other chars

[brittle fog]

Legendary galewind from Deskaluda coming next week

[sly flame]

only once, then you go to trixion on other characters and beatrice will give it to you

[eternal zenith]

send help

[maiden locust]

google lost ark server status 😛

[modern parcel]

all my 12 chars lvls 1370 and main 1400+ so only once nice! tnx a lot

[brittle fog]

https://www.playlostark.com/en-gb/support/server-status

[eternal zenith]

ty for curing my laziness

[fallow acorn]

Wtf dude 12 char, do u even do chaos daily?

[maiden locust]

Bookmark it 😛

[onyx badge]

I don't think there is a way to check, but if you run guardians daily it would most likely be level 4, you stop doing those after t2

[echo owl]

in game codex tells you what runes you have

[modern parcel]

ofc that why i have 12 chars,9-11k gold daily

[narrow summit]

But does it say where I got them from so I know what level of guardians not to farm ?

[echo owl]

it says the raid level

[narrow summit]

How do you get gold from chaos dungeons ?

[fallow acorn]

4hrs for chaos only?

[narrow summit]

That's neat.

[brittle fog]

12 chars but didn't do 2nd awakening

[dusk veldt]

If you used feiton pass the questline is completed already

[rain meadow]

Sell drops or get lucky with gold/red portals

[modern parcel]

every char is around 500-700 mats from chaos and raid,getting leapstones also,with 12 chars you getting rush tickets also so that lvl 5 gems(600 gold) and after 12 chars i sell all the mats and its around 9k-11k gold daily

[fallow acorn]

This atleast burns 8hrs or more daily

[maiden locust]

guys for a new starter is it wise to use express event on first char or 2nd?

[modern parcel]

not at all,around 3 hours to do all this,and then i do the cube and rush tickets also

[fallow acorn]

First yes

[gleaming sable]

First!

[vocal flower]

it takes 3 hrs to maintain 7 chars dailies including raids, ur on massive copium thinking ur playing 3h/day

[bleak carbon]

if you're a fresh level 50 gear 302 character it's better to do it on your first :D

[fallow acorn]

How tf? Gaurdian run takes 6-8min and u have 24 run
Chaos run takes 6mins and u have 24 run

[modern parcel]

im not playing 3 hours per day xD i play around 5-6 hours everyday

[real shell]

id like to play 5 to 6

[maiden locust]

nah im already 1400. a friend of mine thinking to start the game

[real shell]

but i work, and they fucking have maintenance after maintenance every friggin week

[modern parcel]

talking about chaos not raid the math is simple look

[vocal flower]

5-6h/day is for maintaining 12 chars dailies. u play even more than that if u also do weeklies/tickets. 🙂

[bleak carbon]

it's really worth it to speed through the boring honing of t1 and t2

[maiden locust]

he plans to make 2-3 support characters thats why i asked

[narrow summit]

Do you even sleep ? I am getting bored after running dailies on 3 characters.

[bleak carbon]

he gets feiton powerpass and express event which are basically 2 free characters at t3 (really little effort needed) as long as he plays through the story quests or does knowledge transfer ofc

[maiden locust]

i would suggest him that use xpress on first. Save all island honing mats for 2nd and feiton pass to 3rd char

[bleak carbon]

^ I agree 100% on this

[stark siren]

then KT 2 more chars for easy 5 chars to t3

[maiden locust]

y not using xpress on first char wastes so many honing mats at t1&t2 right

[bleak carbon]

I have 5 characters at t3 due to the new stuff we got this patch (was only 3 before) and I agree, I barely do everything on 1 char, I just accumulate rest bonus and play them whenever I feel like it

[stark siren]

either do them on alternate days or every 3 days

[fallow acorn]

Do queue or solo the chaos?

[maiden locust]

except bard solo chaos is easy on all chars imo

[stark siren]

or you can use the forbidden art of letting rest bonus cap since its just a game anyway, dont play if you think its boring

[bleak carbon]

I think it depends on the class played, I queue for my bard chaos but I solo on my shadowhunter

[bleak carbon]

^ agreed, avoiding burnout is way more important than being "efficient"

[stark siren]

solo bard is easy until you meet a red portal tbh

[modern parcel]

chaos:
stage 1 - around 40 seconds
stage 2 - around 1:20 mins
stage 3 - around 1:30 mins
x2 - around 7 mins

raid:
solo night fox around 5-6mins
x2 - avg 11 mins

x12 - 3.6 hours

[stark siren]

prelude of death broken skill

[gloomy gust]

IMO - Solo chaos is more reliable just because people dont click accept and you can go into 2nd dungeon from 1st

[stark siren]

just pray you dont get a red portal when doing bard, easy clears otherwise

[maiden locust]

abyss dungeons are pain. u have to be 4p ...

[narrow summit]

That's dedication, bro. Good job

[modern parcel]

i always solo raid and chaos with all the chars

[dire arch]

how long is this maintanence?

[stark siren]

you solo night fox?

isnt party easier and faster

[dusk veldt]

You must have down time between this tho, just switching characters etc

[fallow acorn]

All ur classes gotta be dps to solo all of this

[narrow summit]

Matchmaking T3 Guardian Raids is faster.

[maiden locust]

well amazonians said maintenance is 5hours. 2h 48mins past so calculate:D

[stark siren]

about to lose all my dailies

[bleak carbon]

at a certain ilvl it's really better to party, 1400+ I easily get 3 min yoho runs which is nice ^^

[dusk veldt]

i dont average 5 min clears on yoho as everyone seems to tell me lol
I get like 6-7 minimum most days

[stark siren]

ye just open a 1400+ room in pf and fast runs

[bleak carbon]

same, wasn't expecting this maintenance as I usually play in the mornings :(

[exotic pebble]

Glad I did my daily's before maint

[modern parcel]

not always,sometimes matchmaking giving me bard and paladin so its 6-8mins sometimes,with solo is always 5-6mins

[fallow acorn]

Why no veganos?

[stark siren]

waiting for the maint compensation that prolly only gives resonance for only 1 char

[sly lodge]

?? I do with bard/pally in 2 mins

[bleak carbon]

the pain of looking for decent parties isn't worth the extra leapstone or so

[stark siren]

? bard/pala makes it go faster

if its 6/8 mins means the dps lacking

[modern parcel]

same as rush boss and cube btw,always solo is much faster

[eternal zenith]

12 character daily in 4 hour dem that's awful

[stark siren]

5-6 mins is on the slow side of yoho btw

[modern parcel]

well weekly is 70-80k gold

[exotic pebble]

Boss rush and cube are easy in a group, why solo?

[fallow acorn]

Ah u r bard

[vocal flower]

my man really just disregards loading screens and switching characters time and all the other minor details that double the "estimated" time it takes to clear dailies 🤡

[brittle fog]

Not after next week since ppl gonna run Deskaluda instead

[sacred adder]

if i change from my guild to a new guild, will i lose the progress?

[stark siren]

right i mean ppl should still have 1370 alts

[bleak carbon]

yeah, only recently got my shadowhunter to 1400

[eternal zenith]

i'm not talking about the gold, it's about the rush and tense ( i do 12 character everyday too )

[bleak carbon]

really excited for Deskaluda, heard its not as annoying as Velganos

[narrow summit]

Can you solo Veganos at 1385 ?

[stark siren]

you can

[fallow acorn]

It should be able to solo it in around 6 mins

[brittle fog]

I've been told it's even easier than Yoho

[vocal flower]

you cant, medbae can

[queen tapir]

Is it worth it to have 5 stacks of rest bonus before 1415 update drops?

[stark siren]

some classes just do it easier than others

[bleak carbon]

Yoho eats a lot of HP but mechanics are easy

[stark siren]

dont sweat it if you cant solo

[fallow acorn]

I dont think so

[bleak carbon]

for guardians, possibly since Deskaluda will be pretty decent drops... for chaos dungeon I wouldn't bother

[vocal flower]

no unless u wanna gamble and think ull hit grudge 5 cursed doll 3 crit jewel and not a bunch of endurance crap

[modern parcel]

lost work is working like this:
1 player - 100hp boss
2 players - 1000 hp boss
3 players - 10000 hp boss
4 players - 100000 hp boss
the number is just example but the logic is like that

[brittle fog]

I still don't like the meteors but yea Yoho mechs are cool

[stark siren]

i woudlnt gamble and stack 100 bonus

just do your normal stuff

[stark siren]

you cant use example numbers for those, and its wrong anyway

[bleak carbon]

the good side of stacking rest bonus is that you can take a break from the grind before new patch :D

[sick escarp]

Deathblade 333 would be ambush master, re, and grudge right?

[stark siren]

if the hp increase per additional party member is less than 100% you'll clear it faster

[fallow acorn]

Nope, veganos isn't easy

[exotic pebble]

I wouldn't think the hp scaling is that severe, as a WD main, everyone does more damage than me anyway heh

[stark siren]

actually evne more because each new party member brings synergy to the raid

and a bard/pally buffs speeds up everyone's dps so the raid dies faster

even zerker has a synergy but i bet he doesnt use it

[flint musk]

HP scaling starts at 2x hp for 1 player, with each extra player adding 1x hp.

[brittle fog]

Was referring to Deskaluda

[fallow acorn]

Why re not surge? Surge is kinda broken u know

[stark siren]

that is pretty hard to play

[brittle fog]

The hp scaling was like 2.5x for 4 ppl vs 1 iirc for guardian

[stark siren]

but thats good yea

[sick escarp]

Mostly cuz re doesn't fuck me over if I miss so

[sacred adder]

when i play as pally in a raid it is way easier/smoother than when i play dps in a group with no support

[stark siren]

take super charge instead of grudge

[brittle fog]

Oh here it is https://www.reddit.com/r/lostarkgame/comments/txhccm/datamined_guardian_hp_numbers/

[stark siren]

yea support lets the dps ignore chip dmg and just spam eveyrthing

[sick escarp]

Oh yeah. So ambush, re, super charge?

[stark siren]

yes

[sick escarp]

Sick ty.

[exotic pebble]

Supports make such a massive difference, shields and attack speed/power buffs plus heals are great!

[sacred adder]

similar logic applies to having gunlancer in the group

[fallow acorn]

Evem if u miss 1 Z, u still deal more dmg than Re

[stark siren]

personally i run adrenaline instead of ambush for re. lesser dmg but you dont lose that much dmg when you cant access the back

not every boss will let you hit their back for free

[bleak carbon]

support not only makes runs smoother but also increases dps damage so it's pretty decent

[stark siren]

or have some form of attack to punish back attacking

[sacred adder]

best possible group so far has been pally, gunlancer and 2 sahdow hunters or 1 shadow and 1 sorc

[sly lodge]

You mean 1 support + 3 sorc?

[fallow acorn]

https://youtu.be/Y6tObetA45I
Power of surge 2min veganos

[stark siren]

its best to mix classes for synergy

[exotic pebble]

I did a cube yesterday with 2 Pallys, GL, Bard. It was so support heavy and so much sir going on and all the buffs. Maybe not the fastest kills but noice

[sick escarp]

I just prefer re over surge anyways. Surge might have top end dps, but I just like re's consistency

[stark siren]

whats this guy's il

lmao 1414

why flexing velg kill at 1414

[echo owl]

the point of the video was a speed kill

[fair mantle]

After nerf no real point of surge unless you enjoy it, no reward for so much more work

[sick escarp]

Also whenever the boss goes zoom zoom, hitting the back is near impossible

[echo owl]

surge is still stronger

[fair mantle]

Only if you have golden fingers

[proper swallow]

1% stronger

[stark siren]

yea but the video is not relevant to surge vs re

so its misleading

and re is easier to play too so that has to be factored in

no point playing the highest dps class if you cant play it properly

[fair mantle]

Yup, especially on my db alt, no way I'm putting in that much work for surge for slightly more damage

[queen tapir]

Grudge supercharge re

[fair bobcat]

where is the best place i can farm yellow engraving?

[modern parcel]

you dont have to use surge if you want 3x3,but i recommend those

[fickle salmon]

sir

that is not a RE db build!!!

[spiral thistle]

You can't farm anything in the game except adventure book items more or less. It's just rng drops from daily/weekly content.

[maiden locust]

There is an update for lost ark 1.26gb. Restart steam to get it

[fallow acorn]

One shot build

[fair bobcat]

adventure book items?

[spiral thistle]

Also if you wanna keep discussing db move to db channel and not help channel.

[scenic blade]

Notice

[spiral thistle]

The items that gives +% to completing adventure book/tome for a continent since they drop from all mobs on that continent they are farmable. But pretty much everything in this game isn't something you can farm or grind.

[eternal zenith]

RE - surge arent they the same (still back attack andi)

[fickle salmon]

maybe

[slender sluice]

Anyone know where I can find the balance changes coming next week? Or they won't be up until next week likely

[spiral thistle]

Probably less than 24hr before patch as per usual

[civic vessel]

Not out yet

[spiral thistle]

Servers are up

[gleaming sable]

Question, I noticed earlier that people are selling bus on Argos. Does that mean my 1370 can be carried up to P3? Anyone have experience with that?

[sly flame]

YES

[brittle fog]

You could read the balance patch released on KR to get some idea of how the balance changes could look like coming next week. But there is no official post for it for NA/EU as of right now. https://lost-ark.maxroll.gg/news/elgacia-class-balance-patch-update-final-version

[slender sluice]

Sweet as thanks guys

[onyx swift]

is it coming to NA/EU?i read only the Destroyer changes come up

[sly flame]

they will carry you to p3 and it cost 8-12k gold

[gleaming sable]

Oh damn thats expensive

Thanks for answering!

[proper swallow]

correct price shuld be 1-3k gold anything more is overprice

[sly flame]

it mightve went down im not sure you can ask around in area chat

[sly flame]

yeah its way too expensive

[young belfry]

One clap from valtan and ur deadge

[gleaming sable]

Thanks! Seems more attainable, hoefully prices go down the more people do it.

[onyx swift]

my bad then, i see they only made the destro changes only. we will see the patch notes if we get any

[bleak carbon]

probably next week

[sick escarp]

Wait so then does that mean lancemaster buffs will also come with destroyer?

[brittle fog]

Yea most likely if they bring the whole balance patch here.

[bleak carbon]

if they implement all the changes from the balance patch then probably

[lime kiln]

When will they fix the issue about refunding skins?
Some people did nothing wrong and they got punished for someone else's action and they can't do anything about it

[modern parcel]

that alt xD this char will stay on 1370

[sick escarp]

Finally I can counter in red form

[eternal zenith]

lancemaster enjoyer

[white sparrow]

nerf buffs are now live?

[delicate kernel]

Hi! Question, if I use reskin ticket does the presets shared works there?

[eternal zenith]

19th

[arctic sinew]

Hello, I have a question on the rest bonus for Mains before deskaluda comes out, should I have rest bonus save up for both Chaos Dungeon & Deskaluda or just Deskaluda?

[narrow summit]

Do you think we'll get another Power Pass with the Destroyer ?

[eternal zenith]

no i think it already been confirm that there's no power pass ( even the paid 1 )

[inner wing]

Bird drops relic accessories
While only Chaos Dungeon 1445 drops relic

[fair bobcat]

never they will because of the bots problem

since the feiton pass came out a lot of bots in punika now 1302 farming T3 stuff

[arctic sinew]

Thanks!

[coarse vigil]

It should be noted that 1415 Chaos drops Relic Ability Stones. That Said, I don't believe it's worth to save rest for 1415

[real shell]

i have literally everything i need to get to 1370 except guardian stone crystals, i cleaned out pvp shop, guardian event shop, i dont want to burn my chaos dungeon because i want to get 1370 set

anything im missing on opportunities to get more guardian stone crystals?

[inner wing]

1370 set is from Abyssal Dungeons Hard and Argos

[sly lodge]

Pirate Coins

[inner wing]

[real shell]

oh fuck pirate coins, where do i go?

[inner wing]

Outside of any port, talk to the ships there

[sly lodge]

Dock

[real shell]

omg thank you

[sly lodge]

One of the ship have it. 6.3k coins for 900 stone, per char, unbound

[inner wing]

Guild shop

[real shell]

just depleted guild shop

[inner wing]

[real shell]

i have fucking 9k bound guardian stones, that are completely useless to me now

[sick escarp]

T3 alts can just be parked at 1340 right? Don't feel like torturing myself to get to 1370 again any time soon

[real shell]

i mean im at 1360 right now and i have everythign i need finally, ive been farming gold, leapstones, blabla everythign and i finally have it this week

[dire arch]

is there a patchnote for today maintenence? since it downloaded something

[real shell]

i want to do 1370 hard mode abyss dungeons this week

[inner wing]

Main's ilvl?

[white sparrow]

guys there is a live stream atm talking about whats gonna happen in the future

[real shell]

damn wtf they only have 90 guardian stone crystals 😦

[sick escarp]

1385

[white sparrow]

but its korean

[nocturne sonnet]

are field boss drops bounded?

[real shell]

are there any islands that you guys know of that give guardian stone crystals? (or chests)

[inner wing]

Something about infrastructures, not sure if there's any more detailed info
https://i.imgur.com/3FGsJqB.png

[inner wing]

Depends
Cooking is bound while accessories or engravings recipes are tradeable

[native idol]

LA still hotfix ?

[nocturne sonnet]

and the mats? 🙂

[nocturne sonnet]

its up

[inner wing]

Servers should be up

[native idol]

[inner wing]

I'm not too sure about this one. Maybe there's info about it in the 'expected rewards' if it's (bound) or not

[flint musk]

I would suggest getting your main to 1400 so you can at least do argos phase 3. Then getting at least one alt to 1370 to help feed your main greater leapstones. I wouldn't really go past one or two alts to 1370 though till we eventually get that honing buff to 1340-1370

[nocturne sonnet]

good call! only juice material is bounded, thanks a lot 🙂

[brittle fog]

The mats from field boss are tradable iirc. The solar stuff are char bound

[inner wing]

1385 buff includes 1340-1370

[real shell]

i might spend a shit load of gold on guardian stone crystals and seriously regret this...i only need 1 more piece from +13 to +15

[limpid moth]

weekly stones for pirate coins?

[white sparrow]

guys before llost ark release what was zeal doing?

[inner wing]

Done

[inner wing]

[cloud pendant]

Game back up?

[fickle salmon]

genshin

[inner wing]

Yup

[white sparrow]

oh

[cloud pendant]

I thought zeal has been playing Korean server for ages?

[fickle salmon]

he didnt make vids on it, mainly genshin

[white sparrow]

guys what are they talking about in the live stream? i cant watch stream atm

i heard there is not gonna be a damage meter in the game? idk why

[limpid moth]

damage meter

[charred sorrel]

we should have "boss mechanics eaten" meter instead

[real shell]

whats the first thing i should do when i get to 1370? do i get 1390 armor from chaos?

[inner wing]

I said that 1370 set was from Abyssal Dungeons and Argos

[white sparrow]

also i wish we could see the mvp thing even when u fail a raid

[real shell]

oh shit, so i have to wait 2 weeks to get full set?

[inner wing]

'Who sxcked the most' ranking hehe

[inner wing]

Basically

[real shell]

or one week"

dang that sucks! lol

[white sparrow]

kinda

[inner wing]

In the end, you'll want to replace all your Chosen (Oreha Hard) set but the weapon with Argos set

[white sparrow]

u dont need the full set
argos buff will apply at 5 so in my idea u need to get the weapon from hard mode

[real shell]

holy shit those mats though

[white sparrow]

also it took 3 weeks for me idk

[brittle fog]

It gets better as you go

[flint musk]

The min/max for hitting 1370 is to run hard mode Orehas, building two armor and a weapon. Upgrade all 3 of the pieces till you hit 1385 and run argos phase 1&2 getting two more armor pieces. Then its just slow pushing/getting more argos pieces per week and eventually replacing the oreha's armor with argos as well.

[real shell]

so its not like before when you can get the full set with 1 abyss run

[brittle fog]

That costs a lot of mats to hit 1385 in a week

[sly lodge]

I done that, its doable. Without buying from market

[stark siren]

which is more worth to craft

[white sparrow]

my friend did this with buying the ark pass

[real shell]

@sly lodge how did you do that?

[charred sorrel]

Celsius ugu

[brittle fog]

Popular opinion is Punika since they both give similar mats while SV costs more to make.

[sly lodge]

Hmm at that time ihave around 2 or 3 t3 alts at around 1340. So they funnel

[real shell]

err so what you just parked at 1340 and made alts?

[flint musk]

Depends, are you lucky? South vern seems to have slightly higher kit drop rates, but if they're worth it all is purely down to if you get lucky and hit those kits. Otherwise they're a loss.

[sly lodge]

No. I play main like normal. All my alts were t2, being t2 and funnel all t2 mats into 1 of the alt, it push to t3 quickly

[scarlet pond]

Guys I just reached tier 3 is it time to make alts

[real shell]

i mean i have 2 t2 alts but they dont benefit my t3 alt at all right now

[white sparrow]

i believe its easier to reach 1385 in main first then u get stranghold research for early tier 3

[stark siren]

need kit to break even?wdf

[real shell]

or my t3 main excuse me

[stark siren]

master kit?

[brittle fog]

But the research is available when you hit 1385.

[scarlet pond]

Is gunslinger a good alt

[brittle fog]

no

[sly lodge]

Right. Actually, my progress in t3 is really slow compare to others. Hence, i have tons of t3 mats by the time i hit 1370 on main. Cus i was focusing on 100% island

[stark siren]

so the strat is to just sell everything

[real shell]

okay so you didnt really get it in a week then lol

[scarlet pond]

D:

[real shell]

are there any islands that give t3 mats? i followed the maxroll island guide but stopped at a certain point

[scarlet pond]

Are there tier 3 islands I should do

[sly lodge]

No. I get it. When i hit 1370, i hav a lot of t3 mats already. I just didnt hone from 1340 to 1370 quickly

[stark siren]

punika

[brittle fog]

^ basically not applicable to ppl who spent everything to hit 1370.

[scarlet pond]

So there’s not any islands for tier 3

[stark siren]

not really island but south vern gives a ton

[white sparrow]

illusion bambo and kadan storyline
also anguished

[brittle fog]

Pretty much

[real shell]

thank you ill check them out

[sly lodge]

@real shell and, i still havent hit 1415 1 hone away. Was working with 1370 alts past 2 weeks

[inner wing]

South Vern also

[scarlet pond]

Why do people keep talking about 1370 what happens at that point

[inner wing]

Argos, Oreha Hard and engravings doping

[flint musk]

1370 is a new armor honing break point.

[inner wing]

• chaos line rewards hmm?

[scarlet pond]

So the rates are way lower?

[sly lodge]

You transition in tier 3.2, something like that

[brittle fog]

You unlock the current most endgame raid with bis armors and accessories and tripod gears.

[flint musk]

They actually go up for a while.

[scarlet pond]

Ty so at what point do people get stuck increasing item level

[delicate kernel]

Hi! Question, if I use reskin ticket does the presets shared works there?

[stark siren]

when they run out of mats

[brittle fog]

1340 to 1370 is a deadzone, 1400 and after is also a deadzone to put things into perspective

[sly lodge]

Guess around 1360-1370

[scarlet pond]

How many alts should I have I really only have one Main and no alts

[weak parcel]

if you dont have alts your progression will be reallly slow, but you dont technically need them, 6 alts is nice for weekly raid rewards etc

[sly lodge]

5. You hav 5 more char slots for free already

[weak parcel]

sorry yes i should say 5 alts + main

[narrow summit]

Will Barricade engraving be good for Scouter ?

[scarlet pond]

And at what point should I try focus on getting my alts to tier 3? And what classes do you recommend I make as alts I am deathblade main

[limpid moth]

i can recommend this classes

[flint musk]

Well since alts in t1-t2 don't really interfere in the slightest with your main's progression, pretty much just push them up to t3 as early as possible, and you can use the other alts to push the 'primary alts' up through the tiers by feeding materials.

[idle mortar]

maintanance over ?

[maiden locust]

1 hour earlier, i'll take it

[scarlet pond]

Ty

[white sparrow]

zerk and sorc can be good as alt in my idea

[charred sorrel]

Anyone here play KR and can briefly explain the difference between Reaper and Deathblade? From my brief observation it seems Reaper has stealth?

[flint musk]

As for alt classes, pretty much can't go wrong unless you go for the more scaling classes such as wardancer, striker, gunslinger, etc. Since as alts they won't be able to get the resources to ever really be good.

[white sparrow]

[silver rain]

If you play Ironman scouter yes, he will have 60% HP as shield when transform and that's when your most dmg windows come from

[scarlet pond]

Thx

[tranquil cosmos]

Does anyone have a guide for best choice of Ark Pass?

[scenic blade]

Notice

This channel is for requesting help for in-game issues.
This channel is not for general discussion

[narrow summit]

I have never played Scouter but I've seen that it gets shields when it transforms, so it made sense to boost attack when transformed even more

[sterile mantle]

What do i do now ?restart steam and hope it will update it ? or just run the game?

[brittle fog]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16-POI243lnjvmEikC3Zc5Suat10jHKpQqHbRn5q9DZo/edit#gid=0

[maiden locust]

re-re validate

[sterile mantle]

So i need to verify it yet again ?

[maiden locust]

yes until it's verified

someone bought or outbid me on a item while I was afk and it was sold.somehow I have no bid details? and I lost the 15 pheons?

[sterile mantle]

@maiden locust Aight, thanks

[stark siren]

you get it back lol

[sterile mantle]

You should get mail after auction of returns

[maiden locust]

maybe I bought on wrong character. I will check ty

[icy shuttle]

Quick question regarding to chaos shard.
Should i save my chaos shard for South Vern Chaos gate?
Are they the same type of maps of Punika Chaos gate or better quality?

[sterile mantle]

Higher price, more loot of map.
but same t3 stuff
same as Yorn and Feiton . T2 maps, one gives more, and price is different.
so pretty much you decide. There is "higher" chance to get more good maps from buying punika epic or leg map chests(as you can buy more of them). but if you go for blues only then Vern ones will give you more

[drifting igloo]

where do I find these 2

cant find any in market

[limpid moth]

from moake field boss if you're <1370 and the other 2 t3

[drifting igloo]

help

[frigid umbra]

Got 2 legendary class engraving selection boxes (the ones from Anguished Isle). Should I try and sell them now for around 2k gold each or wait for patch and bet on selling for more as Destroyer engravings?

[limpid moth]

i would sell destroyer engravings

[sullen spire]

rip this game whats next game we're skipping to

[silver hearth]

why

[limpid moth]

nothing where amazon games studios is involved in

[sullen spire]

LOL

gold river quit

[limpid moth]

[native silo]

so what should i do if lost ark starts and then its open but it just isnt there like i see it but when i click on it (my mouse changes like to the lost ark cursor)

[native silo]

diffrent server?

[limpid moth]

try verifying steam files, else no clue

[vagrant viper]

I'm on item levely 1385, should I do velganos eveyday? Or just do yoho? I found velganos has much higher fail rate in pug and takes much longer...

[limpid moth]

isnt velganos failrate in pugs around 99,9%?

[vagrant viper]

LOL not really sometimes I got some players actually knows stuff

But so rare lol....yeah

[limpid moth]

most people do velganos alone/duo, i do uwu fox because easier/faster

[stark siren]

is pinnacle or control easier to play

[vagrant viper]

What's uwu?

[limpid moth]

nightfox yoho

[brittle fog]

Control easier since just blue stance.

[stark siren]

[native silo]

ye

[native silo]

this is uwu

what was the best way to level gear for dps if you wanna reach 1415?
