    I thought mine played a lot better once I geared her, although yeah it's kinda special, and it can be a huge pita with retards/full ranged parties. Swiftness build with wealth runes makes it a lot better than the basic stuff though, you have lower cooldowns so almost always something to cast and...

    They have some tools since they falsely banned a bunch of laggy people, just it's likely not instantly banning them, or they need enough time to figure out if they're a bot or just some australian fucker. They do a reasonable job with it in terms of reducing spam(at least on EU I barely see spam...

    Engravings are a bit convoluted but once you get it it's pretty simple. You can check out videos for them, I think Saintone had a good one from prelaunch. Basically you're just trying to get increments of 5points in whatever engraving(which is a fancy word for talent/passive) you want, up to 15...

    Yeah any char that's not a power pass can go back and do these. I do luterra and tortoyk and don't bother with the rest, you get enough green class books from luterra and you get all the blue books with luterra+tortoyk, the other parts just require a bunch of moving around for low amount of...

    Now that I got my supports in T3, I can see that Nacrasena is in fact not that fast. My bard has 4 kills so far and the best time is 7:30. I'm just gonna do rested bonuses on these supports, pubs are too fucking shit, when I play DPS it goes faster because I'm doing 35-40% dmg every time but...

    Kinda, I believe they normalize gear, but not other bonuses, so unlike arena pvp where everything is equal, in island pvp you have runes, engravings, gems and such. Possibly more stuff too not sure, but a T3 well geared player will definitely fuck a T1 noob a lot more easily. Ironically I think...

    Well BDO isn't successful in Korea from what I've read/heard, like it surprisingly does ok in the west, but not so well in Korea, so I doubt it'd copy too much. On the flipside, Lost Ark does very well, so in terms of systems and such, I think it's more likely it's similar to Lost Ark than to...

    The 200k figure was for the western launch. Obviously it was an underestimation on purpose, as the goal was just to give stuff for free and celebrate the western launch, but they probably expected 400-500k at launch and it did double that. But yeah ppl are gonna quit, this always happens...

    The decline is steep because the first few weeks were so high, honestly I don't think this was intended to be even a 500k concurent player game, the KR event had a much lower treshold for their free shit event stuff(was it 200k concurent?). The fact it's still this high is pretty big, 400k...

    Also have to do Punika again for the 2nd day in a row, zzz Lailai. At least I got both my supports in T3 now. 5 chars in T3, 2 to go, but the remaining 2 are relatively new so that's not happening soon, Sharpshooter isn't even a week old and Sorc is a couple of weeks old but I wasn't pushing her...

    That's a bad take, every mmo ever takes a massive dip after release. The numbers only go back up when new content/expansions release, and slightly over time if the game is successful. Wow sells millions of boxes every expansion, and 3months later everyone's gone, same for FFXIV, and every mmo...

    I've bought one already even though I'm not using it yet, just so I have one free in advance, but yeah, while somewhat expensive in comparison to other game slots. BDO was 3$ iirc for slots, or maybe that was the sale price but they had sales on these often, DFO which is a much deeper P2W korean...

    I wish taking mats from storage was an option you could toggle, just wasted 600g worth of leapstones because I didn't grab the leapstones out of the mail before I crafted. Every now and then I have to keep track of how many bound mats I have to not use the storage ones it's annoying. It's...

    One thing I like is you can switch to add Punishment in your build with the right Tripods, and you do a shit ton of stagger and destruction dmg, so you can deal with a bunch of mechanics while your DPS are being retarded. I usually get ~30% stagger on Paladin which is really useful. On the...

    Yeah as Raes said, Galewind and tripod for bigger zone, the zone is basically halfway into the cast and with galewind honestly it's like about as fast as Demassi meteor shit on Sorc, just you can't cancel it if you see the boss is gonna fuck you up. Or well you can but you lose the dmg and it...

    I just kinda wish you could bind the stances directly to a button instead of having them rotate, it's more confusing for me the way it is. Ultimately though I haven't bothered with gunslinger. Deadeye is on the weaker side though compared to Gunslingers, largely because of the reliance on back...

    Well Blackfang has shit resists for example so doubling up on her, while it's superior speed cause she has like 1.8speed isn't very good for resists. My setup I think was like Relic Blackfang, Relic Barakas, Relic Whilhelm, Legendary Wilhelm, Epic Whilhelm, although the last one I'm not sure...

    Oh yeah once you have nothing else to buy it's worth getting more stronghold crew, but they don't feel super valuable in comparison to getting runes or even normal crew guys(some are sold in stronghold, ymmv on which ones are useful). But yeah until then I wouldn't invest too too much, you can...

    You can use multiple copies of the same sailor if they're different quality, so for example for Estoque you can use both relic pupurin and legendary pupurin and such, so yeah the lower rarity are useful in these cases. Stronghold I'm not sure they're very useful, the % only slightly helps, even...

    It really is almost "free", just donate 6k silver every day, open the guild menu and if there's one, participate in the research, and you get a bunch of bloodstones which let you buy some more stuff. Honestly it's not that many mats currently with our low lvl guilds compared to KR/RU and stuff...

    From what I've read you can get these even if you don't get credit for the boss but not entirely sure. I know you can get adventure tome credit for them even if it's not your first kill. Maybe I'll go check tomorrow cause yeah I'm missing a few bosses too in the welcome challenge stuff.

    Yeah that floor is annoying, it's not so bad if you take it carefully but at some point you stagger one of the fucks so you're like "oh yeah time to do dmg" and then you get caught by the other fuck into a stun lock for 20secs and 100% of your health lol. Floor 49 is super cancer on slow dmg...

    I don't just check gear I check engravings and gems, can see at least ppl who put any degree of effort into their char and there's a much better chance they know how to play/have the right skills/have potions. It's not 20minutes though, I'm whining cause I have to sit there 5mins finding the...

    Yeah but in premades I can check their gear at least so I don't end up with only shit geared ppl, but now the shit geared ppl are the ones making the parties and then they recruit good geared ppl to carry them. Probably I should just do the same. I'll finish taijutsu books with the event though...

    Even with towers, leapstones have always been the bottleneck for me in T2, from my main to all my alts. Sometimes I run out of shards too, but I never not run out of leapstones. Those last 3 levels are 20+ leapstones each, 40+ for the weap, and there's only so many sources of leapstones. That...

    Lol apparently I had opened some untradeable blue engravings boxes to get some stuff in advance before I had the greens, and forgot about it, today since the prices dipped on every engraving I bought a bunch, including the ones I had opened, so that's 40 blue books wasted. Granted that's only...

    Yeah but everything goes down together so it's not like you have necessarily as much buying power. I think bots are getting curbed pretty hard somehow, like today I actually didn't see a single gold spam in the sea(I did see several yesterday) and gold to blue crystal rate has actually been...

    I'd assume it is chosen randomly(either 1 guardian every day for everyone, or just random when you queue?). In theory they could also just have different rewards yeah, but I think people will game that by picking the least annoying one that still gives enough ressources to buy everything...

    Actually wasn't sure it was that at all as I remember excavation earlier and thinking about it, it was Golden Wave island instead, so checked Lost Ark Codex(the website, not ingame, ingame there's no result). As far as I can tell: Fishing has no pot Excavation is Golden Wave not Azure Wind...

    Mushroom island for logging, Azurewind for relics, Crescent for hunting, I think? I'd assume spida for mining probably, thematically. I've seen these but they required too many mats when I ran into them since it was super early and I haven't bothered checking them again, but I probably should...

    Usually that's what I do too, but sometimes I log on an alt cause I need to go somewhere to catch an event or check their storage or whatever, and then I forget do some chaos or whatever, then log on another char and if I didn't note down I'd have forgotten. Not like everyday or every char, just...

    I use Bynnark to track a few things since I play a bunch of alts, and guild donations is one of them because it's really fucking easy to forget(unlike say chaos dungeons). It's really useful though cause you get a lot of "gold" via mats back, especially once the chars are in T3. But yeah too...

    NCsoft USA is complete dogshit though and they don't have any actual decent game anymore and have ruined several in the west with their hardcore P2W setups, the last one of which was Blade and Soul which launched with "ok-ish" stuff and they then added more and more P2W shit until everyone...

For the 8 ignea I'm planning on sticking to the lower ones, but...

    Neat, finished the 21 days una task in Punika today, and turns out with it you don't even need a single rapport if you have everything else(all food besides Moake one, all hidden quests, all collectibles and obviously dungeons and shit). No Moake either. Might drop some of these Punika rapport...
