i just like how the skills look tbh
inner shale
for sure, ye
but you know how it is
dps complained that bard and pally give more heals and have more buff uptime
past shale
inner shale
saving up for summoner books, else coulda help you financially
past shale
nbd
i just need some stuff to sell
problem is its just financially wrong to buy legendaries from chaos dungeon now since you can just get 1415 and wear relics for 1/2 the price and not have to spend more pheon to upgrade later
so nothing selles
it has the funny number in it
surely itll sell
dawn agate
dps complained that bard and pally give more heals and have more buff uptime
I'd hit em with the LOL just don't stand in red circle 
selling accs suck
Cuz of the pheons ppl will buy mostly optimal stuff
Otherwise it's just a waste
past shale
yep
tawdry hedge
g5 looks insane too tbh
i'm new to this game so idk a lot of mechanics but
gate 2 and 5
look very annoying
cloud inlet
gate 2 is fine tbh
since u can easily overgear it
prokel isnt too bad either for most classes
cloud inlet
i'm new to this game so idk a lot of mechanics but
wat region?
cloud inlet
ahh, a good economic server 
tawdry hedge
what about u?
cloud inlet
naw
gold to bc is like 3.6k
last time i checked
at least i get no dc's
i would mald
cloud inlet
Think we 3.5-4k at all times
at least its a lot better than before
dawn agate
well this was lucky
i have one already tho
inclined to roll to get soul absorber or void strike
only about 13k on the market eh
cloud inlet
update: i did i266 to i560 today
nice, out of msq finally
cloud inlet
logged in after a month and idk if this is good
its decent
but 10k? idk, couldve gotten that for free from a drop
cloud inlet
nice, out of msq finally
can u not powerpass on ur first char?
nvm, u dont get one til u get to that continent's pp
cloud inlet
surely they fix this in jan patch
inner shale
you'd get 1490 rewards in challenge guardian even if you enter with a < 1490 char right
as long as you have 1490 in your roster
?
@cloud inlet
dawn agate
Afaik the boxes from there are roster bound
But you can only choose rewards for appropriate item level
Like there's the acc boxes and you can grab that on any character but if you want the high level ones you need to open it on a char with appropriate ilvl
Boxes stay the same tho
inner shale
ye, what I'm worried about is if I would get 1490 mats or not
if I enter with < 1490 char
dawn agate
The mats from there come in boxes too don't they?
inner shale
red, blue stones, and mhl don't
dawn agate
oh damn never noticed that 
dawn agate
I get that 
inner shale
db's so good with scaled content
dawn agate
On challenge guardians i almost always do 40-50% damage
It's pretty neat
I hate when velganos on rotation tho
cloud inlet
oh thats nice
tawdry hedge
<:gowonpog:726256825271320606>
Yea, I need to upgrade to IL1100 and then finish Punika
and then afaik I think it's gonna be IL1302 with chaos gear after
inner shale
cloud inlet
I am now almost IL1000
oooh, u doing those islands ye? they give the good boost for ur first char
then u can just powerpass/hyper all ur alts
tawdry hedge
oooh, u doing those islands ye? they give the good boost for ur first char
yep i finished like, almost all islands
T1/T2 pretty much done
also taking advantage of this thing
tawdry hedge
azure wind?
tawdry hedge
oh no I haven't
cloud inlet
its an optional island on the maxroll island guide but imo its very good
tawdry hedge
its invisible ish so i havent gotten there yet
cloud inlet
to not be done
tawdry hedge
guess whati have been doing since yday 4 pm 
cloud inlet
i can link if u arent
tawdry hedge
i already did the guide till island 25
cloud inlet
ah
tawdry hedge
i just missed a couple due to time gated stuff
like peyto
i also reached fention?
fertion?
that continent
cloud inlet
feiton
tawdry hedge
and then finished it
cloud inlet
nice nice
tawdry hedge
so now im left with upgrading stuff for punika
cloud inlet
i wouldnt bother with the abyssal dungeons, i doubt ur gonna find a party unless euc is bussin
but seems like ur on the right track
cloud inlet
some do it for possible leg cards
but idk, underwater one is a trap
cuz of that one mech
cloud inlet
nice
t3 is the slow grind now
but u have express to use right?
that should help a lot
inner shale
dawn agate
I DO MORE DAMAGE TO MONSTERS NOW
Only patchnote i want is the one where they revert the surge changes from the first balance patch
Was already hard enough getting stacks on enemies that won't stop moving
inner shale
this balance patch doesn't really affect me that much
only my scouter and sh got touch on
though it's still not finalized so ig there's a chance for my soulfist
dawn agate
I don't mind anything after that weird ass surge nerf
Idk how many times have I not been able to use the damn skill because the boss won't stop moving or mechs or whatever
Risk that comes with it i guess but it was better before 
Hate having to get 20 stacks all times
inner shale
ye, the more you do raids faster the worse surge gets 
the only time you can do 20 stacks surge is on ilvl content
dawn agate
Yeah you're lucky if you get one or two in a raid
If they had it so the Identity doesn't deplete when you're on it i guess it'd be alright
So you can keep the stacks during phase changes and stuff
Building up orbs isn't even that much of a hassle it's just annoying to keep having to build stacks and not be able to use surge
But on ilvl it's pretty neat
Challenge guardians are fun for that
cloud inlet
Hate having to get 20 stacks all times
i think ur playing surge wrong
most of the time u just settle with 17-19x
and it only ever ticks to 20x if u delay ur surge on a tick of wind cut
cloud inlet
most of the time u just settle with 17-19x
then u use void strike to regain last half bubble
dawn agate
i see
cloud inlet
also, top surger players use moonlight over dark axel
for mroe stacks
i used it and it helped getting to 17x way easier
tho dark axel's utility is really nice
but u can just learn to play without it and spin cutter 3x to get behind the boss
also with moonlight u have a set rotation that works all the time repetitively
dawn agate
I seen some ppl using dark charge on blitz rush too for stacks but idk how common is that
cloud inlet
it should be a must for surge
maxroll guide was wrong
and had enhancement for more dmg
when 2-3 extra stacks is better
dawn agate
icic
Imma try to get used to no dark axel, sounds fun
Thankfully my tripods for moonlight are all lv4
cloud inlet
cuz using dark axel over moonlight is like 3 stacks gone
and also, u only use it to get to the back
ive tried using spincutter 3x to go to the front then dark axel back to the back
to use it for stacks
but just feels kinda.. clunky
dawn agate
Dark axel is nice but most of the uses you're just saving a little bit of time when you could've used spincutter
It's definitely neat for when bosses just turn around right when you get on their backs tho
Which happens pretty often
cloud inlet
i tried with and without in clown and maybe just my inexperience in clown on db
but it did help a bit in g2
tho i think i can drop it tbh
dawn agate
It's definitely very convenient yea but I think you can get used to not having it
I'll see what i do when i get back to this game
cloud inlet
i just checked the comm guide and their rotations r similar to wat i do
but they like using voidzone in surge stance since boss isnt moving i assume
they do have this one
which is close to wat i do
but ofc, no moonlight or axel in there
which pushes stacks up
and no last wind cut in there
dawn agate
I see I'll try that out
cloud inlet
im kinda annoyed they use blitz so early in the rot
u wanna use it at like 12x+
cuz its highest dmg non surge skill
wat i do is
wind cut > Z > spincutter > wind cut > earth cleaver > soul abso > moonlight > maelstrom > blitz > spincutter > windcut > surge > void then u should have max gauge since void is still in maelstrom 6s duration, windcut is down so u just start rot without it
cuz the problem with going with 20 stacks everytime is that ur wasting stacks past 20x
rather than just surging early 18-20x and going into the next surge
ofc there r diff rots like in the guide but felt like the one i do works everytime even with lvl 5 cd's
might change with ur gems
cloud inlet
jesus
inner shale
inner shale
cloud inlet
holy fk overdrive is busted
67k?
tho ive been hit for 82k i think from a SH in pvp island
dawn agate
Damn
cloud inlet

inner shale
ye
cloud inlet
oh wait, i just saw this guy in stoopzz stream today where he trashed all his gear cuz he “has a kid coming”
same roster and lvl since then
but diff drip
inner shale
oh wait, i just saw this guy in stoopzz stream today where he trashed all his ge...
huh
cloud inlet
i’m just slowly tapping weap with bound since it’s alr on ilvl for hard brel
cloud inlet
basically ye
stoopzz was like "u donated 10$ so i could see this? u couldve just sent it in chat"
guess that guys just rich asf
or g2g andy
cloud inlet
ye im surprised this early
inner shale
game's fking unplayable
how do they always break the game after every maintenance
I'll never know
cloud inlet
ye i heard
now naw getting dc's
the one good thing about naw is gone
other than 5k grudges
inner shale
MUH QUEEN

Yen 
inner shale
we adopted a mokoko earlier in brel
lv 80 roster
he first applied in our 1st 1-4 run but we were full already and was just waiting for friends to come
we cleared then went on to 2nd 1-4
he applied again
so we're like fk it, let's accept him
3-month old player
so now he won't get lobby jail in brel every week
pretty cool
cloud inlet
idk, official twt
said he was apart of the costream
i dont watch him that much so
didnt see him live
inner shale
got my 6th brel piece this week and honed
got pretty lucky. 1 free tap and 1 one tap
the rest were sub 5 taps
dry flicker
whats the blue symbol over the accessories?
cloud inlet
whats the blue symbol over the accessories?
favorited engravings
old feature but revamped
inner shale
big rng
I think it equalized my 1475-1505 bad rng
and for the bracelet... it's too good to replace
as much as I want a crit/spec variant, can't pass up 2.5% dmg and 3% crit rate
cloud inlet
ooft
cloud inlet
as much as I want a crit/spec variant, can't pass up 2.5% dmg and 3% crit rate
ah ye, thats pretty good for now
inner shale
just can't be bothered to replace it rn especially with current blue crystal price
cloud inlet
u'll get a better drop eventually
inner shale
cloud inlet
w8 expertise makes u do more stagger, drop master brawler for VPH 12 and then one acc that swaps to vph 3 so u can never fail brel g4
perfect
cloud inlet
clear the raid or wipe?
exactly
other side fks up their yellow mech
stagger destroyer comes in: "no worries"
ive seen kr destroyers do that, have a g4 specific build
as well as GL's
inner shale
ye but I want my mvp

inner shale
true
tawdry hedge
but u have express to use right?
stopped playing, it got really boring ngl
cloud inlet
stopped playing, it got really boring ngl
wat ilvl did u get to
cloud inlet
didnt even get thru the tutorial 
which sucks
cuz takes a while even with express to reach beginning of the game
inner shale
stopped playing, it got really boring ngl
sadness
cloud inlet
promoting bussing weirdge
dawn agate
Really weird
inner shale
maybe they're not 1600 yet
inner shale
I didn't watch a single cutscene
cloud inlet
tbh, i missed the field boss cuz i didnt g spam
finished it like 30mins after last field boss timer
inner shale
my inner loonaverse olivia hye coming out
need that punika skin twitch drop asap
'cause these chains aren't it
inner shale
cloud inlet
i miss them
inner shale
inner shale
actually fun when you have a proper pvp setup
just finished my 5x3 pvp build 'cause one of my alt dropped this
dawn agate
Nice
cloud inlet
just finished my 5x3 pvp build 'cause one of my alt dropped this
rowen came faster than expected, was slowly building mine up but never finished
cloud inlet
our coop event was just red stomping over blue in ch9 lol, think all the blues were in higher channels
cuz of the disparity in popu
inner shale
ye, that's how it goes if you're late to the party
ch 1-3 is just full of rmt guilds that hold the islands
inner shale
cloud inlet
ah, one of those ppl
inner shale
cloud inlet
until someone snipes it
ive done that before lol but when u get too patient, someone comes and takes it
inner shale
it's very niche tho
and it's the only acce avail atm so they're trying to sell it really high
cloud inlet
6k hr andy
inner shale
equalized
I might pity my +20
'cause I 5 tapped +19
gonna be a slow grind tho since I only do double rest bonus
hehe 69
cloud inlet
gonna be a slow grind tho since I only do double rest bonus
damn u broke as hell
im still on 750k
inner shale
what ilvl are you at now
inner shale
dry flicker
meanwhile im only 1518 so still havent tried g5 and g6 yet
inner shale
soon
cloud inlet
not the 5-6 pug experience
inner shale
inner shale
nerd
dry flicker
finally got 6 set brel doing only 1-4
welp just made the mistake of throwing out the low red and blue shards thinking i couldnt exchange it
mm straight 1 tap wep
inner shale
nooooooice
same for my chars as well, got their last piece this week.
then I pushed them to 1520. 1/4 got their horns.
throwing out the low red and blue shards
dry flicker
mm i have to now learn g5 and 6 and pray for learning parties
inner shale
try la disc
dry flicker
think that time has already past (also no way i can wake up a 9am on a sunday), but im in no rush atm, 1-4 is already so draining, kinda just waiting for artist push
inner shale
oh, I'm just saying people post lf there
also that's NAE and iirc you're playing in SA right
and ye, no rush for sure
I'm just gonna get all my alts their brel horns then not do 5-6 ever again
just gonna be 1 brel/kayangel/akkan/future raids andy
artist coming home soon 
cloud inlet
think that time has already past (also no way i can wake up a 9am on a sunday), ...
1-4 isn’t so bad on reclear, quick 30 mins tbh
but 5-6 can be jail even as reclear zz
inner shale
saving those for my artist
cloud inlet
oh right
dry flicker
in the end 1520-1530 took me 6m silver, 70k gold and 700k shards, geez
lol i just got an achievement for getting 777 silver loot
cloud inlet
in the end 1520-1530 took me 6m silver, 70k gold and 700k shards, geez
holy, why the push?
dry flicker
oh yea forgot to mention that was partially i wanted to push for red glow weap so +18 and then I did 1 armor just to get an even 1530. Also wanted to get enough ilevel to get in pug parties
cloud inlet
ah
dmg isnt really needed in 5-6 so u wouldve been fine in 5-6 learning party
cuz it sounds like u got unlucky
with gold and shard cost
dry flicker
ah but im playing sharpshooter so the struggle is real
cloud inlet
u getting gatekept as ss? damn
dawn agate
Seulgi always a good incentive 
I'm redownloading the game to see if i vibe w artist when she comes out but i can see myself uninstalling it again a bit later
inner shale
yep. I've been watching a lot of gameplay in higher level content, really hope she's fun to play.
'cause I'm about to invest a lot on her, ady have her acce ready.
dawn agate
She looks fun at least, have no experience as a support but eh I'll learn
dawn agate
Also wanted to play arcana but uninstalled before creating one
dawn agate
Think i even bought emperor leggo engravings cuz they were omegacheap
inner shale
a lot cheaper especially now that frog is currently out
dawn agate
They were selling for less than 1k here back then LOL I got all 20books iirc
Empress was super expensive tho
I don't remember the pricing but it was suuuuuper cheap
That was back when the first frog came out and stuff
inner shale
ye don't get why empress was more expensive when you really only need it at lv 1
ohh right
arcana came out way befoooore we got our 1st frog event
like the class was ady out for 2 months iirc
and back then there was a stigma that it was weak af
zdps class
dawn agate
Yea
Was also right when those balance changes hit kr i think
And people didn't know
inner shale
ye
dawn agate
Bought all 20 after seeing the balance changes and people talking about emperor being goated
inner shale
cloud inlet
baby steps
niceee
i was with a new party, we were just goign for clear, 2 ppl died in g1 and we didnt reset and then g2 no one died on the FIRST pull and i havent been able to get deathless since kek
and that was like ages ago
but some of them got it without me with other friends but hopefully this'll be the week
so we can move on to vykas
inner shale
just a matter of finding the time and the group to do it with for me. really the hard part about doing hell mode
and luckily, I found the time and group
attempting deathless today after our gvg 🙏
can't wait to move on to vykas hell
dawn agate
Also created an Arcana
But only had a Vern pass
So I'm out here like 
Also, Emperor still under 1k here. Empress still pretty high
Honestly kinda weird
But go off ig
dawn agate
Yeah it should come w express right
dawn agate
hopefully
now I'd have to make a decision
To use it on arcana or artist
W Arcana I already have legendary Emperor...
So everything else will be easier and cheaper
dawn agate
artist gon be expensive af
Cause i have absolutely nothing for supports
No engravings etc
I'll think about it
inner shale
4x3 should be enough anyway and you can do that with just legendaries
6/6 stone and 9/9 engravings
dawn agate
Honestly i can probably get on raids easier w artist and push arcana on the side
inner shale
yep
dawn agate
epic imma do that
Actually that is what makes the most sense
Cause I'll get a ton of shit for artist
So less money spent on her
I'll already save a lot on Arcana anyways
inner shale
cloud inlet
ALLYSEE VO
wait wtf LOL
cloud inlet
Honestly kinda weird
think it’s like that everyone, even tho emperor has to go lvl 3, think it’s just that not many ppl play it cuz it’s “harder”, but then u can go lvl1 emp but the book is so high still, honestly weird
dawn agate
Yea it's really weird
Like, i expect empress to be lower simple because you can go lvl1
so (?)
tf is going on
inner shale
dawn agate
Lot of ayayas will be ayayaing all over the place
dawn agate
4x3 will help a lot
inner shale
for sure
inner shale
it's actually a really good source of silver too
dawn agate
nice
ah the hot springs event gives a lot of those
cool
ok this will be much more simple than i thought
inner shale
inner shale
dawn agate
First one really does be giga copium but second one seems feasible
If they actually focus on speeding things up
As they're apparently tryna do
dawn agate
Nice
inner shale
dawn agate
i feel I'll have an aneurysm if i watch this for some reason
inner shale
watch at your own risk
cloud inlet
if they change kayangel hard 3 to 1560 instead of 1580, they can release elgacia in may cuz ppl will alr be 1560 for hard brel, then they also add the shards nerf so everyone can push 1580 faster for akkan in july/aug, 2-3 months after elga
classes is whenever
but they need to cut the vertical more
idk if they can change hard 3 ilvl but 1580 without shards nerf is gonna be pain
cloud inlet
wat the fk
when did u push so hard
im not pushing cuz shard cost is dumb high
but also cuz oreha/fish prices r fked
inner shale
never stopped fishing and honing since I +19'd my weapon
my destro's the only char I've been honing since brel dropped
alts only reached 1520 after they got their 6th piece last month, honed them using free taps 
dawn agate
Niiiiice
cloud inlet
my destro's the only char I've been honing since brel dropped
i thought u were broke on shards
inner shale
ye but I still have a lot of shard pouches, opened those.
I left enough for my week one 1475 artist
and still have mari's
inner shale
yessa
inner shale
I meaaaaaaan, technically I am...? since I do have 3 accounts, I rmt with myself
and get around 200k gold weekly
but ye
+20 weap = rmt in my book
inner shale
that too, ye
inner shale
bruh every time we have raid match
all I see is white glow when assembling
I felt left out
cloud inlet
they just on the grind frfr
cloud inlet
cube actually worth to do now POG
inner shale
Unfortunately during testing we found an issue with the March update that was not able to be resolved. Because of this we will not be able to release the March update, The Art of War, at this time. We will still need to have our weekly downtime tonight at 12am PT and the expected downtime will be 4 hours. Please stay tuned for more updates when we have them. We thank you for your patience and understanding.
dawn agate
Unfortunately i think that's on smilegate
Testing builds and noticing stuff very late
Maybe they really just test it last second bc they're more worried about kr version
inner shale
ye talking about SG 'cause it's the 2nd time that this happened. they still have the same sched on how they work on/implement patches even tho they ady fked up the first time? 
kill SG
dawn agate
yeah idk smilegate is pretty weird when it comes to dealing with issues
as in
they don't
it's pretty weird
dawn agate
like last LOA on where people expected them to fix a lot of issues and they just bandaid patched a lot of it like they've been doing
w the gold mainly
inner shale
big true
inner shale
iirc they said those dailies are the reason why people still login everyday so ye, we won't see any changes any time soon
what they don't know(or probably they know already and just don't care), it's also one of the reason most players are quitting/taking a break from the game
dawn agate
Yeah when the game becomes a job then people will just leave
inner shale
next roadmap will be the make or break for the people that's left
inner shale
Updated 3/14/23 - 10:30pm PT: We’re happy to say that the issue gating the release of The Art of War update has been resolved. Ultimately, our in-game moderation system required additional configuration resulting in the anticipated delay conveyed in earlier messaging. The revisions have passed our QA review and we’re on track to deliver the content based on our original schedule. Thanks for playing Lost Ark and enjoy the new Artist class!
dawn agate
What the fuckkkkkkk
BRO
Ok tbh
I'm glad they announce it early that a delay may be happening
And then walk it back after fixing
Instead of just quietly trying to fix it and maybe having to announce a delay last minute
Still would be best to have better QA that isn't done on the last day before patch
inner shale
they legit did that twice
think it was with glaivier update
they announced a delay then pulled it back later
dawn agate
Yea I think it was the same w the glavier
Or was it a different one
I think glaive actually got delayed
or am i misremembering it
cloud inlet
it was the clown patch
it got delayed from mid june
to 1st of july
in oce at least, everywhere else was still 31st june

Moomin was unavailable rip

Worth trying
Surprised moominnie was available
Artist actually pretty fun
Just gotta pay attention and not get interrupted
inner shale

need you to read Othello
oh right, thats the female leads name
inner shale
dawn agate
i think both are scary abomination when you think about it
inner shale
scary abomination
I still have like 9 hours to change it to cute ayaya
wachu think
but I named it desdemona 'cause wanted her to be evil/demonic
hence demon in the name
inner shale

tawdry hedge
wat ilvl did u get to
i started playing again
@inner shale
i am 1445, and learned argos and valtan in a week
while also doing sidereals on my 1st valtan run
inner shale
tawdry hedge
maybe i am also just playing valtan that it's easy..
i have not done vykas yet
bc vykas is a whole different story
though atleast i wont get thrown away in the abyss :kek
dawn agate
yeah vykas can be ASS
when ur starting out
but it's just mechanics so once you do it like
twice
you're set and probably won't ever have any more issues with it ever
all issues i've had with vykas was people failing gate 1 for some reason
and me forgetting about gate 1 mechs w the velganos ball thing
tawdry hedge
pls
i think the only mech i hate about vykas so far
update: im learning vykas
i hate the red/green/blue/orange/black w/e color mech that is going on
the blue and black orb i haven't done yet, but i think that one will be fine
since its p predictable with the circles being blue and black appearing before the orbs, giving it away
tawdry hedge
yeah vykas can be ASS
i'm gonna take my time on g2 the most
i need to know those colors and which vykas forms are half open, both open or closed
dawn agate
ahhh yeah
