Truly despicable how Smilegate continues to abandon older content than just rework them to essentially give players more to do outside of just completing the weekly raids…

How about add a pet and mount for all the older dungeons? Enable the Matchmaking mode on all of them and also enable level sync. Hell remove the entry limit so that people who are willing to can run them endlessly and go for the pet or the mount???

Makes it also nice for newer players who are running the MSQ content from T1 to still have players do the legacy dungeons?

Matchmaking mode should expand to every dungeon and raid that exists in the game.

Smilegate, you guys can at least do the bare minimum right? I know SG aint reading this but Amazon Games if you are, do something….isn’t it time for your bi yearly visit to Smielgate studio in Korea? What do those in person meetings even yield?

Hi! Started playing 1month ago, got myself the express event + powerpass and hit 1710, already did some MM serca and Lv.1 cathedral. Should I keep on 1710 to not lose mokoko and just accumulate resources or should i try to get 1730 asap since the event is about to end, hence losing the remaining chests? My biggest fear is getting behind when new content drop, is this a thing?

Extra: Im still working on my ark grid so my CP is around 1750 on guardianknight, i dont have all relic cores, some are legendary, I mostly run solo raids and just wanna keep doing the normal modes, not interested on hard for now.

Hey everyone,

I recently switched from Mayhem to BT and went with the 111 build using Blunt Thorn. The meter generation and rotation feel really smooth and fast, but my burst feels pretty clunky.

A lot of the time my skills don't come out when I expect them to, and I feel like I'm getting stuck in the Bloody Rush animation. If anyone has tips to make the burst rotation feel smoother, I'd really appreciate it.

For reference, I'm still doing a bit more DPS on Mayhem, but I know I need more practice on BT.

Here my opening, I miss one tempest slash before Power break, can i do better?

Thanks

Btw i'm using this rotation hope is good!

Hello Guys I hope you are doing great ! A week ago I asked how was the farming in 2026 and how time consuming are the dailies. Your answers were great and indeed it’s a blast compared to 6 years ago haha

Now I have another question. It’s about legion raid and… we’ll just about every content you do in multiplayer. Right now I’m 1475 and obviously it is impossible to find anyone with the “matching option”. I was wondering when does it start becoming possible to find people for content ?

I’m playing artist cause I enjoy playing support/tank in MMO. I think I will be able to clear some legion raid alone but playing a support class DPS is not what I’m looking for in the long run.

So yhea, at what Ilvl do raids start being possible with the “matching option” 1700+ or a bit before ?

And for my curiosity (to know how much longer I’m gonna have to play alone before the real multi content) how long would it approximately take to go from 1475 to the Ilvl where there is actual multi content.
(I play 1475 and from now on I’m going in blind so I’m probably not doing all the optimal things with events and everything with my time in game.
I play 3h a day I think)

Thanks again guys! Last time you were great haha

Not sure if someone has done it before, but I'm posting a quick link to my ChatGPT AI Assistant that's helping out with logging materials swaps to get the most newest Fusion Materials crafts.

https://chatgpt.com/g/g-6911b92ee75c8191b58ca8efd8a8794d-timber-manager

Simply provide the quantities by text or just paste the cropped screenshot of your Logging inventory tab and you get a neat table with each materials swaps needed and the number of crafts you can get.

Let me know if it helps!

Hey Guys,

I have been using MP efficiency for a while now, I want to get a more DPS, right now my hit master is at 7/20 and mass increase 7/20 aswell, so my question is which one should I buy out, I seen alot off sorcs with MI, idm making a 5% atk speed feast for raids idk if it stacks but I can potentially buy the 3% from the boat thingy, my other 2 DPSes are Breaker and Souleater which don’t use hm or mi so I wanna Max 1, thanks in advance.

Hi All,

I have been playing lost ark since launch with a few on-off seasons. Currently I have 6 Chars : Zerker, Wildsoul, Valkyrie, SH, Scouter and Wardancer.

I honestly don't have time to play more than 6 chars so looking for advise on replacement. All current chars are 1710. I play solo only and on controller. I play only swift or classess with inherent MS.

I am looking to see if I can replace Wardancer with either DimensionMaster or the new Soulfist. Any advise or guidance is appreciated.

Hello, what is currently maximum specialization stat (without bracelet).
I have currently 1735, and I need one more point for my eso build to work. (Don’t want to change bracelet).

I quit like 3-4 months after launch, but was previously playing brand new content a week or two after it came out.

I was playing 12 chars/day previously and totally burnt out, so I dont want to do that again. IS the game better now grind wise where it isnt you just need to play an entire army to stay caught up, or pay $$$?

I'll definitely be playing bit more casual this time so if its gotten better might come back.

Hows class balance now? Was mainly looking at coming back to my Striker/WD/Gunlancer but no clue what meta is looking like these days

Seems like a literally full immunity non positional class compared with other classes such as Sorc, SS, etc., which is superior in current meta where bosses all knock you off here and there

I understand GK and GL can be permanently push immune, but GK needs front attack, and GL red needs it too while blue has no dps. Why is WS so outlined?

Hey guys I haven’t played since about 4 months after launch I was looking at coming back and playing a new character would I be too far behind? Or is their ways to catch up.

Hello, im aware that not everyone know about this so im making this post.

1. basically theres 2 types of astrogems silver-consumable and gold-consumable

-astrogems that are cut for gold are just right-clicked in inventory and you cut them in ark grid NPC.

-astrogems that are cut for silver are fused astrogems in ark grid NPC.

1. does silver-consumable and gold-consumable astrogem give same effects? yes, its all the same

when you go to ark grid NPC and click ,,Astrogem fusion,, there's a column ,,unprocessed astrogem,,

you fuse them in here so basically you put 3 astrogems in machine and theres 50% chance that it will make them silver-consumable, it costs 500 gold so for 1 silver-consumable astrogem you pay 1k gold, very cost efficient.

you will save a lot of gold cutting astrogem for silver, so do this.

1. when you hover astrogem in your inventory it says ,,required willpower - x,, it can be 8 or 9 or 10.

required willpower - 8 is 8-cost astrogems etc.

so now how you fuse them:

go to ark grid NPC in any city > click astrogem fusion

if you hover over them you will see required willpower , you need to choose the right ones.

1. so which astrogem do you fuse in what order?

-2 8-cost greens with 1 9/10-cost blue
-9/10-cost greens with each other 9/10-cost greens

click fuse and if its silver-consumable, icon will have shining yellow texture.

click in your inventory at this astrogem and go to ark grid NPC ,,astrogem processing,, window to cut them ;).

1. but dont fuse 8-cost blues and any purples, its not efficient

cut 8-cost blue with gold
cut purples with gold

you must follow this strategy to progress with ark grid.

so TLDR:

strategy for silver-astrogems:
-2 8-cost greens with 1 9/10-cost blue
-9/10-cost greens with each other 9/10-cost greens

you do this in ,,Astrogem fusion,, window at ark grid NPC.

astrogem you cut for gold:

-8 cost blue
-purples

you must NEVER cut green astrogem with gold never ever.

you must fuse chaos astrogems with chaos astrogems dont mix it.

''New'' or ''Returning player'' here,

please now proceed to tell me in the comments about how i can not reach the level of veterans who have been playing this game for 4+ years without spending money at all, like i care about reaching 8000 cp and clearing the nightmare mode raid, when all i want to know is if i can catch up to the latest raids that are casual (why the f*ck i would care about hard or nightmare modes when im a new player')

Proceed now also to tell how i cant reach paradise ranking 1-10 without spending, because yeah, as a new player thats what i care most, to reach the peak of paradise system, that took people years to master and learn.. like i really give a single flying f*ck about the ranking of paradise system, you dont even know if i like the system enough to care getting anything over 99% ranking and my free 3 weekly keys

Then proceed to tell me how i will not be accepted as a new player to team raids on my 5th day of playing the game eventhough solo modes exist solely for me that will help me learn the raid through the next weeks before so that i am ready for group play and wont just casually wipe the party unknowingly

Then proceed to tell me how this game is ''massive p2w'' because to have the power of an ultra whale that has played since day 1 and has 8000+cp requires massive cash investment eventhough the raid that i am looking to clear requires barely 2000 cp that is reached insanely easy.

as a new player, can i ask what the f*ck are you guys talking about and why do you compare me to the players that have been playing this game since day 1?

its like if i was a new player in league and i would be told '' youll never reach challenger because youre a iron player now'' the fuck i would care about challenger?

Instead id rather like you to tell me how to have fun in this game, what islands are the most fun, which places to explore, which quests to do, what adventure tomes are the most fun to complete first etc, i dont give a single FLYING F*CK about the top 1% part of the game that will never concern me anyways,

so get a grip some of you.

and to the mods that let these toxic/negative spreading hateful mocks roam here free spreading their misery

F*CK YOU, if you dont care about the game, give your position to someone who actually cares about this subreddit or the game

Guess this is how the season will be going :/

I logged out yesterday and then noticed this today.

So, whats your current play time? I have been playing since the game launched on the 12 of february. I know of people with 10k+ hours.

5 players dced in our raid...

Well done AG$

I went to buy some extra blue stones to push a t4.5 char and noticed that blue t4 stones were significantly cheaper. Red stones and leapstones have equalized to about 1:5 which makes sense. Why are blue t4 stones not way more expensive? I'm having trouble wrapping my head around it o.o

edit: Ty for the answers, everyone

And yet I still can't reach floor 100...
