    Top server defaults to the last server you logged in. But even in Russian you should still be able to tell the difference. Кратос is Kratos альдеран is Alderan

    Any of you guys playing RU on Kratos, once you hit 50 if you need a hand with anything just hit me up here. My Scout is 1417 GS, so most stuff that isn't endgame I can just power through. I avoid some raids though. High ping+pugs+everyone in your group must execute this mechanic perfectly or...

    This beta only had content up to Rohendel. When the game launches, endgame will be after the next continent, Yorn (the dwarves). Shit was easy because we're getting a cobbled together frankenstein version and T1 is ancient content, and there's islands, the tower and shit that gives t1 mats...

    Some abilities cause "fatigue" which when you accumulate enough on a boss will stun them for a few seconds, allowing your group to go ham on dps/stop them from unleashing a big ability/prevent Guardians from teleporting. The p2w/pay-to-progress is built in to the design of the game. Those...

    The estate isn't really housing. You can decorate it a bit, but it's completely unnecessary. It's basically nothing but a crafting UI. If you have no interest in crafting you can just ignore it. Otherwise, you port there like once a day, send off your boats, queue up some research/crafting and...

    You can't really collect them. You buy them off the AH, sometimes we'll get events that give you a stack of 20 boxes that you can choose which ones you want when you open them. A few game activities (affinity (rapport? lol) will give you 2 or 3 like that too. It's nothing to worry about in...

    As I've said, it was just something I found funny because of the wording of Gavin's post. I've been a Cage fan since that movie. And I agree with pretty much everything you just said.

    Eh, the only floors in the Tower of Shadow with any difficulty are the few with the exploding dudes. And there's a couple where you need some consumables, but all the info/strat videos are readily available. And, since they changed it so you can run Tower as many times as you want, instead of...

    Yeah, I don't really care for classes that have to build up a resource to use certain skills. The "special" ability each class has can really make or break it for me. Eh, it's just practice. Game's been out for 3 years in KR. I solo the first Guardian as part of my alt accounts weekly epona...

    There are certain side quests that give (account shared one-time) rewards that you want. But, you only have to complete them once. On the other hand, post 50 you want to do all side quests on all characters, because levels 51-60 give 6 skill points each, and those side quests give enough xp to...

    Right after character creation, you talk to Beatrice in Trixion. Then before you choose your class, you can test all classes of that archetype, but with set skills that you can't change. That plus the class trailers/youtube videoes etc. should be enough to decide if you want to play it. You...

    While the story isn't bad, leveling in this game, especially on alts, is such a boring chore that even Smilegate recognizes it, which is why they added the ability to boosts alts for a paltry amount of gold and effectively eliminated all their cash shop sales of boosts by doing so.

    They will definitely have boosts, all regions do. Boost to 50/Vern, then 1 additional boost for each continent. Usually 500 RC per boosts, so probably Greedazon will charge 1500. The real question is will they allow what KR recently added and RU decided not to (2 weeks after announcing it was...

    You used to get xp from dungeons, but people figured out grinding certain ones was way faster than questing. So, Smilegate changed it so you only get a one time quest for each dungeon. (And forgot to do that for like 2 dungeons, so those don't give any xp at all) People also used to not bother...

    This version still uses the NPC for engravings? That's lame. Costs (way too much) silver and you have to be in a city. Current version it's a free, drag and drop UI element, and you can switch engravings anywhere, even dungeons. Maybe if AGS knew what they were doing they'd get shit like this...

    Figured everyone who wanted in would have a key by now. But, if that's not the case I have like 6 extra keys if anyone needs one. (Dumbass Amazon sent me 3 for my silver pack pre-order, lol)

    They already did cut out nearly half the side quests, lol. And, about a month or so from launch, those leveling dungeons will be ghost towns, that you have to do (solo) on every alt, longer would just mean more time and trash mobs (many of which you don't even have to kill, unless the progress...

    Just thought it was funny that when I read your post it was the movie that popped in my head. Not that it was bad, just "discretion --> Valley Girl" (lol), hence the wink.

    So, last night I did some comparisons of NA's cash shop vs RU. Keeping in mind that we don't know what Amazon will be charging for Royal Crystals yet and that things could change between now and release. In RU it costs 1000 rubles for 1000 RC, which equates to $14.00 USD. So, we can safely...

    You need to be level 50 Before you get to the main city in Vern. One of the main story quests there requires level 50. It's better to be a little over then have to backtrack to Athertine. IIRC you can be ~300k shy of level 50 when you leave Athertine and still make it in time.

    Yep. Lotta systems. This is why every time I try to explain something it turns into a 5 paragraph mishmash of text vomit. The adventure log gives rewards every 10% of completion. You increase completion with those clickies and certain crafted/found food items, plus story (main quest and hidden...

    Yes...some...of the...voice acting....is......really...bad. Also, they went with a thinner version of the UI font, for some stupid reason. Probably just me, but it makes the game look cheap/old. Wish there was a way to change it back.

    Yes, there are cities, and they are your hubs at endgame. It's zoned open world, each zone is a bit small, and most are just for leveling quest. Some quests later become dailies. LA has a channel system, when Channel 1 becomes full, 2 is created etc. You can switch channels like every 20...

    Pretty sure that's only for the first 3 hours. LA has the usual Korean "channel" system, but don't think one server can handle too much load. Like only 2% of people would be able to play that day.

    The $25 pack is an ok investment. The higher ones, not really. If anyone is gonna spend that much money, it's better to spend it on specifically what you want. Lots of the shit in the packs isn't worth what people think they are. If anyone just wants a key, you can pre-order a pack from Amazon...

    Things like not stacking classes while doing a first clear aren't "meta." It's just trying to compensate for the fact that the entry level GS is usually set way too low, so you do everything you can to buff your damage. Saying you're "never stacking 2x of the same class in a group" isn't true...

    Ok, need to clarify something. It's hard to explain things about this game since the devs never met a game system they didn't like, so there are tons of them, some which are interconnected with others and you can't really explain one without the others. ( It's design bloat, but the game and UI...

    Having a support class to shield the group at the right moments is hardly a meta. That's their purpose. When you're playing the game the way it's designed, that's not "meta".

    Lost Ark Online

    There's some where you want to have a (well played) support class or two, but there's no "best" dps classes. What matters is your GS, Engravings and # of skill points. Plus having some skill, and knowing the fight.
