    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.

    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...

    Na that's just it, but it's pretty "new", we're not getting like T3 launch build and such and instead a build that's only a few months old similar to the current RU build, which is good. The worst part of korean ports is getting shit from 1year+ ago and then knowing you'll get buffs/qol stuff...

    Well there's a video, but largely the main difference is the Engraving makes the special mode permanent, so you don't need specialization to increase uptime and can focus on crit/swiftness plus it also caps your hp at 25% so you can activate any <50% requirement like some tripods and one damage...

    Seems we're getting a somewhat recent build, which makes sense since there's T3 but still recent within that, with DX11 and Berserker Madness rework(Late december RU update). Sucks they haven't posted the Cash Shop news yet though, not sure if it's gonna be later today/tomorrow or monday or...

    Right I probably shouldn't have said that the way I did in terms of full expansion reset like wow does, but I still believe they will do some sort of reset at some point. DFO does that too, even though it takes months/years to gear up, they still do "gear resets" when they upgrade the level...

    Kinda. T3 is the only "big" tier, T1 and T2 are just relics of the past updates at this point. T3 will last a while just because there's nothing else to do besides that for now, since KR doesn't have T4 and we're starting late anyway. So T3 will last, but you can consider T3 as a WoW expansion...

    Well technically, if you're NA, you can get somewhat of a lead if you no life the first few days. Not like massively important, but the daily resets are at 1AM local time but the game launches globally at the same time so in the US(west coast especially) you can play all day on tuesday before...

    You can download the RU version and test the game out, you do need a VPN but you can get a free trial on one to test it out as long as you don't waste your bandwith watching youtube with it on. It plays somewhat like Diablo, skills with cooldowns, clicking for movement. Not very story...

    On engraving books btw since I see a video but the guy doesn't go over it that much I think, you can get A LOT of the green and blue ones pretty easily. There's vendors on certain islands that will sell like 3-5 books a week and there's several of these, so getting 20 is actually just a matter...

    If you read the quests and shit, it's like 18-20hours depending on how efficient and stuff. If you skip stuff, it's more like down to 12-ish. If you're hardcore speed leveling, it's like 8 or 9h iirc? But that's ppl who know all the quests and use efficient movement skills and speed pots and...

    Gold is the best value yeah, that said it might still be better value to just buy currency instead, they said they have a post about the cash shop to be released this week so we'll know more at that point. For example the char slot might not be worth it for you if you don't plan on having a...

    Are you sure 1-50 will be worse than T1 to T3 prog on our server though? I mean on RU and KR I'm sure, cause there's already catchup mechanics, so it doesn't take long to upgrade your gear at each tier with 100% oil and what not, but on our version? I don't know if it'll be that fast or easy...

    Lost Ark Online

    I'd agree if we were limited to T1, but with T3, being able to boost through 1-50 doesn't mean all that much, still gonna have to grind your way to 1300+, during which you will be tempted to buy random shit to make it less painful anyway. If they had launched with T1 only, I think it'd have...

    They said a long time ago there wouldn't be paid boost at launch iirc. Like a few months ago. Boosts at launch is actually a good way to get pretty bad press about P2W and other stuff. 1month later or whatever sure, but right away it means anyone swiping gets a direct advantage right away, for...

    Yeah was making a post about it. They also confirmed you will get 12 character boosts for the 1-50 boost with a single manually leveled char. Only the further boosts(rohendel/yorn etc) will require 1 for 1(and maybe 1:1 for 1-50 past the initial 12 that part is unclear, although 12 is plenty...

    The presets are apparently back to what they were but they might have some more. Starter outfits is something yeah but largely irrelevant seeing as how you change gear like 10mins in, people made a lot of "muh censorship" posts early on for basically nothing. The NPCs I'm not sure if they'll...

    DRK is the highest DPS tank, but the difference is negligible and not something you'd notice. It's like 150-200DPS at lvl 90. That said while leveling, classes get their skills at different times, and so some classes are stronger than others in the process. Unless you're soloing dungeons...

    You get a standard HR quest for Apex mobs once you've done the rampage at least once. But if you've never done the rampage versions yeah have to check events. Some of the events are harder versions though(I think all the solo apex events are emergency apex which is harder? and the only standard...

    So cleared P4S P1, started prog on P2. Took a little while but not so bad, it's a fun first phase at least, changes a bunch between each pull, and the first mechanics are the mechanics that matter the most so once you get the mechanics, it's just a matter of not fucking up, instead of having to...

    Switching channels has a cooldown though I'd assume? Like in BDO you can only switch every 15mins or whatever. Some other korean games you can switch as much as you want, I don't remember how it was on beta, guess I could launch the RU client later and check. Other issue is how many channels...
