Numerous buff and power ups? Like what? Cards drop in the game, you get quite a lot every week, and you don't need THAT many to do endgame. I mean you can get 0.06% dmg per 2-3 cards you get endgame, but that's hardly something worth mentionning. Crystalline aura doesn'ty provide combat buffs...

Shit got kicked while I was raiding in FF, anyone knows how's the queue to login?

Yeah Arm's Length is VERY good against trash mobs, the attack slow lasts a fair bit and reduces their dmg output a ton(unless it's caster mobs then it doesn't do shit I think). Doesn't work on bosses(besides maybe some very low lvl ones in ARR) so for these it's only for kb immunity, which is...

Shit I kinda hurried for my char customization to check for my name asap and my hair is already annoying me lol.

Unpacking was slow so deleted, downloaded but it was also slow(sigh), just got in 30mins late, somehow Pyros wasn't taken on EU? Time to punch shit.

Yeah I'm fairly sure it will, honestly I think I'll just move the files out and download it again tomorrow, decrypting 57gb is going to take like 30mins, even if the download servers are slammed I doubt they'll be that slow. MH Rise was like 40gb and still took almost 20mins, I wasn't in a hurry...

Because ultimately it's still purely speculative, they haven't come out to say it'll work or not either way, they said they're looking into it and there's not much more to add to that, while the post had several people already taking that as the game definitely not launching tomorrow and such...

I don't think it's gonna be the case, but it seems they didn't set it up properly, Steam should fix it by then though, most likely, if that's the case. Someone on the forums pointed out that's why the game is encrypted instead of being installed like during Closed Beta where you could install...

On the list of other potential fuck ups, they "looking into" whether their setup with Steam will actually allow them to let people play tomorrow or not. It's apparently not quite a sure thing because of how they setup the game as DLC only and stuff.

Makes more sense though, and don't mind it. Honestly with the 100% upgrades, I think people would have reached T3 on maybe 2chars before weekly on west coast, which would be a somewhat substantial advantage. The way it is, you'll make it to T2 if you play a lot.

I don't know I think they fucked a bunch of stuff. If you check patch notes now, it says the part about upgrading has been removed cause it wasn't related to our version.

Yeah they came out 20mins later to say it wasn't actually like that. Don't know if they planned on doing it like that but couldn't figure out how to make it work(very possible) or they just had changed their plans but forgot about changing patch notes. But eh not complaining, saves a couple of...

Old news old man, you don't have to watch cutscenes anymore now, you just get the 2nd powerpass after you claim the first.

One fun fact about the power pass, if you level your alt manually first, you can power pass boost your main and it'll give you 302 gear instantly, instead of having to do shushire(it'll also autocomplete shushire msq, or it should at least). Saves like a couple of hours of questing, as long as...

It is somewhat disappointing yeah and a bit surprising too since they could have slow rolled it a bit without it feeling too bad, but I guess this way the first impression of the game once you reach 50 isn't "oh I failed my 80% upgrade 6times and I'm out of mats, well fuck this korean shit"...

Silver/gold fairly sure. Some KR screenshots don't have silver/gold shown at all on the window.

Yeah it's the standard catch up mechanic but it's a bit unexpected we get that right away, thought they'd milk leveling a bit more. That should make it really quick to progress. Other part I found interesting is they have some daily/weekly reset times in there for the world boss/ghost ship etc...

Na BDO combat is "twitchier" imo. The PvP in Lost Ark does have some reflex based shit and stuff as usual, since there's rolls and such, but overall the combat feels a bit simpler.

They did mention they already had servers ready to go to expand depending on how it goes, but I fully expect every launch server to be queues up the ass anyway. Big streamer or not, mind you, but those popular ones are especially going to be congested I'd assume, so personally I'm more aiming...

Gameplay loop is very different than BDO. BDO largely was "do your cooking boxes, tend to your fields, then grind trash mobs for x hours, maybe be forced to pvp at some point during that time". I know they added a dungeon so not sure about that part but overall that was the loop. Lost Ark loop...

But that's the thing, preloads are rarely "ready to go". They're usually encrypted, and once the game releases, the game files have to be decrypted, which takes quite a while. Depending on PC specs and internet specs, it can be faster to just download the game on the day of the release, rather...

Preload is up btw. Wonder if it'll be faster unpacking this 60gb shit than just downloading it tomorrow, usually takes 10mins to download but like 25mins to unpack.

Not necessarily. Mostly it's chinese censorship, and even that is somewhat loose and is more of an issue with the depiction of them. Many chinese games/anime/mangas have undeads, they're just usually not human skeletons. Korea and Japan don't really have that issue and there's plenty of...

You start with 6 slots, can buy up to 12 more for 18total. 15 starting classes so should be fine, usually in these games they expand the char slot max as they add new classes although not entirely sure about this game in particular.

https://m-lostark.game.onstove.com/Class Use auto translation it's usually not so bad

Also they said there would be ingame power passes at launch. Probably event only, from the login rewards or something like this. Not too much difference between knowledge transfer and power passes, but power passes don't cost gold(which is pretty big), and might take you further(current...

Oh they're not saving 4hours that's for sure, I don't even know about 15mins, but the damage tripods more or less don't save any time at all, even the ones that change how the skills work. Maybe the ones that increase aoe size, but I don't think I've ran into situations where I just had nothing...

I don't know why you wouldn't since running is literally the slowest part. They can be used before you mount between spots, and especially in dungeons during speed cloak downtime. It's usually only 4 points in 2-3 skills too, so it has very little impact on actual power levels besides specific...

Still nowhere close to playing the game for you though, it's literally just telling you which skills are better than others while leveling. You can take the time to test them out once you unlock Trixion but until then it's annoying when you use a 20secs skill and have to wait to change the...

Best how? If you mean in terms of performance, they're literally all good. Paladin was a bit sucky early on but last dmg boost is enough to make them more than fine. In terms of how they play, that's pretty subjective, but I prefer WAR for its ease of play, but in my static there was already a...

Finally cleared P4S, was kinda close yesterday so we decided to raid another day before reset, started pretty memey shit(first we wiped like 20mins on phase 1) then couldn't get past act4 for several pulls, got one pull to curtain call that ended in a wipe like 3 tethers in(people pulled their...

Pretty sure it's region so yeah it's gonna suck, they said they'll "maybe" change it after launch and offer free rename tickets when they do, but for now it's pretty fucking shit especially no caps in the name.

I did edit a few things, but I'd say there's mostly one big advantage, grabbing your name. Anyway it seems there was a leak of one page of the cash shop from a streamer posted on reddit Only a single page but you can get somewhat of an idea of the prices, if you assume 10$ is 1k crystal(which...

Well you're also paying for headstart if you want to play asap, although it has not much actual impact overall as you won't be getting a whole lot the first "week", and you have plenty of time before the second weekly reset to get your shit even if you don't do the headstart, if you play a bunch...

To be fair it was questionable right from the start and anyone who thought they were going to give platinum packs to everyone who had 1500 channel points was an absolute retard, seeing how 1500 channel points is much cheaper than the actual pack. It was obvious at the very least it was going to...

Btw @Raes or someone else who played endgame for a bit, are island quests doable only on one char? Like the mini island quests on most of them. It seems to me it should be obvious they're only one time rewards, seeing as how the rewards on some of them are very big, but I haven't really seen...

Hmm guess that's different than some of other korean mmos, maybe our version will have them but yeah checking some KR past events quickly, it's largely the same shit everytime(upgrade materials, una completion tickets, silver/pirate coins, battle items and such) with rarely a few things mixed in...

There didn't seem too much when I played, albeit for a limited amount of time. At no point during leveling did I ever run into inventory issues for example, the base inventory is large, and monsters don't drop stupid vendor loot shit and such. You do get a lot of armor/weapons, but you can...

Yea some islands have events where you want more people(the suicide chicken event apparently needs a fair few people to work at all? maybe there's some scaling to it though not sure) or it doesn't matter either way, but some you want less, stuff where you have to pick up RNG things, also one of...

Premade pvp is server specific too from what I read, which seemed to be the only relevant content stuff that would matter if you cared about that. I'm not even sure what premade pvp actually does though, looked like rank is solo queue anyway? Also pop somewhat matters for like island events and...
