IIRC he said they were hoping to hit 200k concurrent, because that's around what it peaked at in Korea. Extrapolate the game doing badly? Please tell me where I said that? I've said many times that AGS is doing badly, so bad they could hardly do worse. The game is doing fine and has probably...

All I said was the current decline was a bit steep. One expects a decline after the launch rush, because usually people are just logged in less, even if still playing every day. Look at the complaints here and on the official forums. There are many people just dropping the game. It's Korean...

I agree with most of what you're saying, but when people quit like WoW in between expansions it's because they've done all or most of the content and can't really progress any further. Most of the people dropping Lost Ark never even made it to tier 3. I expected the drop off, but considering...

There's 3 basic reasons for what you are experiencing. 1.) AGS deciding at the last minute to launch with Tier 3. 2.) Streamers/Youtubers who played other versions and are throwing out "guides" like candy to get in the van, so people can try to do in a few months what took years. 3.) AGS and...

No, I was referring to Arcanist in May. Although, since that info was from the "leaked" roadmap and they're redoing it, could release in April with Destroyer.

Lancemaster, Scouter or Reaper. Oh...wait... Maybe Summoner or Arcana...in like a month. :rolleyes: Seriously, though, if you like Striker might as well try out one of the other fighters.

Well, of course higher GS than the entry level means you do a bit more damage and take less. Rarity and grade of gear makes a good bit of difference as well. He was asking about the difference in effectiveness between 1346 and 1370. And since you tend do be doing things with the highest GS req...

For the most part gearscore is just an entry requirement for various content.

During the most recent change in direction they decided to not make it a Lineage game. It's a new IP and they are also making another game set in the same world on the Eastern continent that will be Korean themed instead of European medieval.

Slated for global launch later this year. They scrapped the Lost Ark isometric version and went with BDO style.

Galewind, plus the attack speed tripod and the tripod that increases the size of Perfect Zone. Goes off pretty fast.

You can mail accessories and ability stones to your alts, or any character, but the recipient will have to use pheons to claim them.

The tone and wording of their articles always makes me want to vomit.

Roxx 3h Hey everyone — first off, thank you for your patience as we sorted this out. The team has investigated this situation thoroughly, and I want to provide an update and some context for everyone. There were a number of accounts suspended in this timeframe as a result of one of our speed...

It's kinda easy to make it a habit, since you have to open the guild tab once a day on each character to get your check-in stones. Since the devs love those little red reminder dots you'd think there would be one for the guild tab if you haven't opened it that day. What's even worse is that the...

The ilvl req restrictions is what they were referring to. The part they lied about was that they only removed the req from the engraving books, not the mats.

He was agreeing with the "can't just keep stacking" part of your question.

Yes, that's true, but events are supposed to be for everyone to benefit from. Which is why in other regions the rewards come in Roster bound boxes and you get to choose the tier of rewards, like this: Not only can you give the box to whichever character you want, you can throw them in your...

If NCSoft wanted it they prob would have published it long before now. The Lineage franchise is their flagship product and Lineage Eternal (or whatever its called now) will be a direct competitor with Lost Ark. I think the problem stems from the nature of game "publishing." I've pondered this...

Also liars. Removed the purchase limitation by item level at the Arkesia Grand Prix exchange so that players can now earn more rewards. They only removed the GS req for the engraving books.

Same on NA East. Fishing has always been a goto (and mining) for bots for whatever reason. I guess it's easy to automate and with fishing you don't have to fight over nodes. Enjoy it while you can. This game sucks for trying to make any gold with crafting. The bots will drive down the price of...

Yes, but keep in mind the mats you buy are character bound. In other regions event rewards come in Roster bound chests, with chooseable rewards. Like those shards and leapstone chests you've seen.

Fixed an issue that prevented unbound Uncommon (green) and Rare (blue) HP Potions from being tradeable. I love how a stupid AGS decision is now just "an issue." lol Event rewards shouldn't have had an ilvl req in the first place, but at least they are removing it. Fever TIme rewards are...

Yup. They started moving away from the "asian grinder" a while back, but they did that by just throwing a bajillion borings quests at you, because that's what they thought people wanted. Then they inevitably realize they've made a mistake and either streamline the questing and/or offer (paid)...

Playing for years is the heart of the problem. They have zero idea how to handle starting out fresh on this version of the game. Sure, they know what's important to shoot for and start early, but they never had to actually do it until now. The original game was completely different than it is...

Game companies that sell character slots have this tendency to treat those slots like some kind of holy grail. Smilegate has never given them away, and it's the only thing (other than shit like name change tickets) that they haven't. They do like to expand the maximum number of slots you can...

Yes, like I said, they want to milk the whales as much as possible. Less means of getting mats means more money. Same reason we got fewer rewards on the racing event vendor.

The problem is launching with T3 and having these T1 and T2 half-ass catchup mechanics from island mats and shit. It gives people a false idea of the usual rate of progression. Not giving the added honing chance with Argos release just makes this worse. And it's obvious these decisions are...

It's his spit that drains your mana, and he rears back a bit before doing it.

Dude, you need to take a pill and fucking relax. There's no secret. Make alts, sell mats. Wow, genius level strat there, huh. I already listed what I've been doing and have over 100k gold and have spent like 40 or 50k. If I had sold my t1 and t2 alts mats instead of using them to feed each other...

That's not even close to what I'm saying. I'm not one of your dumbass drinking buddies shooting the shit over a twelve pack on the back porch. Being able to hit 1370 GS by Argos release doesn't make anyone a gamer god. I've never claimed to be any kind of master at this game. That's part of the...

No one said that. The argument is over whether or not it's possible without spending real money. Whether you're 1370+ or not is not an indication of whether you're hardcore or casual and no one claimed it was.

You're just floundering now. I already told you, I don't fucking care about hitting 1370 GS. Why would I? My Scouter in RU is 1425 GS. ONLY 1425 after 2 fucking years. Could have maxed him out long before now, but I don't give a shit about gearscore. I've already seen everything this game has to...

Lol. Are you calling me a liar? I made 1345 on my main last Saturday, and I've been focused on leveling my alts and not on making gold. These are all my alts: I could have easily had more gold if I had chosen to focus on that.

Sorry, dude, but you're wrong on this one. 1370 in time for the Argos update was absolutely attainable without spending any money. I could have done it and chose not to. Impossible for a casual, sure, but not a real gamer.

Well, I've literally spent zero dollars on this version of the game. (Spent like $55 in RU because I needed slots for Scouter and Reaper) Getting 1370 by now isn't that difficult, nor does it require spending money. I could have easily gotten to 1370 if that was my focus. I instead spent my...

I haven't even been focused on making gold (like Voldeth has) and have over 100k, my main is 1345, my gunslinger alt just hit 1100 this morning and my first alt account main is 1080. All I've done is sell all purple/gold engravings, all tradeable leapstones from Guardians, a couple legendary...

A whale guild? lol Are hardcore gamers mythical creatures now? Or are people just so used to watching lazy streamers swipe/get carried by their viewers that they think that's the only way to progress quickly?

Once you get to 1340, unless you're a whale, it's best to take a step back and just play super casually. Wait for login and event rewards to pile up, do your dailies/weeklies enough to get your weekly gold bag, and upgrade slowly or wait til we get the 20% honing boost and the other content that...

Well, Smilegate had to make their decisions based on secondhand knowledge and AGS is retarded.
