...You are not looking for an MMO. The genre has never allowed individuals to 'stay competitive' while only playing a single character for a few hours a day. Individuals who play 24/7 will always have a significant advantage. Lost Ark is a million times more friendly in that regards as the...

This is a pretty accurate take as opposed to those above who are commenting about something they haven't played in a really long time. I haven't ran into a bot in a long time, they've completely banned them and enforced it significantly for several months now. They occasionally pop back up but...

KR balance patch came out today (notes for those interested here: 테스트 서버 적용사항 상세 안내 (내용수정:emoji_nose: Glaiver & Soulfist are pretty huge winners thus far. I'm incredibly excited for the graphical overhaul on my SF - check them out at: (spirit bomb at 28 seconds is the best)

This is creating quite an uproar for KR. It's pretty easy to understand though, the people playing on KR are mostly the intense people who love the game and were around during Brelshaza before she was nerfed 6 times. The current Western audience is hardly able to clear this Brel and we're...

I finished all my page 1 boss rushes (fuck doing page 2, there's like 400), which let me roll an extra level 10 gem (thank fucking god it rolled damage instead of CD). Also got really lucky on my bracelet roll: Bracelet:

May 2023 Release Notes Slayer tomorrow & patch notes are out.

https://www.playlostark.com/en-gb/news/articles/2023-roadmap-part2 Pretty aggressive content release schedule - Slayer in May, Elgacia in June, & Akkan & Aeromancer in August.

Road coming later today however this was posted as a teaser: Which has raised my excitement level to an all time high. Aeromancer & Slayer. Might need to start working on page 3 of alts soon.

Game has a solid playerbase and the content release cycles are monthly. It's certainly worth coming back to especially if they deliver on some of those changes.

Community update with the roadmap coming next week: https://www.playlostark.com/en-gb/news/articles/letter-to-the-community-april-2023 Looks like they're continuing to try and encourage new players -- surprisingly enough, every day I see some new Mokoko seeds pop up and players in chat talking...

I had food poisoning & work stuff that prevented me from playing until Friday (beyond just clearing chaos dungeons) so I didn't have enough ancient bracelet mats to upgrade my bracer until this morning. You're correct on the benefits though.

Week 1 hard mode completed and got my horns: G5 was really painful and I don't enjoy hard mode at all on it. G6 on the other hand is amazing. Really enjoyed it. There's absolutely no way I'm going to be clearing all 6 gates on the alts though, that's insanely demanding on time. The folks who...

Check Discord - I think I've mentioned it half a dozen times or so already. @elidib !!! The honing shard reduction is pretty huge for catching up. They certainly want people to hit 1590 and the rampant speculation is that it's for a quick Algasia release.

Update with more notes: https://www.playlostark.com/en-us/news/articles/april-update-2023-release-notes Wasn't expecting half as much as what they're releasing however the big news is we're getting Esther weapons; I'll be accepting all donations.

Just going to jump on the bandwagon and echo that the difficulty here is greatly exaggerated. I am neither an avid console gamer nor particularly good at FPS' in general. I beat this without ever hitting a wall. It's been awhile but if memory serves it's also erroneous that you don't passively...

New ark pass wallpaper: Edit: Hell mode Brel got released for KR as well this week, which has actually been a fun race to watch. Day 1, no one cleared Gate 5 (the tuning is pretty insane).

I fell way behind this week due to D4 taking up most of my weekend however managed to get my Artist to 1500. My thoughts on this patch: - The new PVP instance is terrible. I liked Rowan's story and didn't mind the continent but this is just atrocious. Fire whoever came up with it. - I've seen a...

@Lumi & @elidib are in too, so should have a fair amount of folks. Just going to be busy with LA with the patch but will certainly be active at launch

This was pretty accurate. Servers are up!

Maintenance extended twice now. Hoping they don't fuck this up.

Been incredibly pleased with my Steam Deck since it's arrived. I had originally purchased it for a pretty specific reason, which was to play Lost Ark (via geforce now) while I have a bunch of work travel to complete. It's been incredibly effective at that, albeit I certainly wouldn't raid for...

Agreed with this perspective. To be fair though, 5x3 is insanely easy to achieve -- all 12 of my characters are 5x3, with multiple of them having 5x3 builds for both specs. If you budget your accessories and don't mind waiting / bidding, you can get there pretty fast. The issue with supports...

Not really sure I understand the above comments. At present, one of the largest issues for a new & returning player is that they're effectively behind from an efficiency standpoint. This makes the character unfun to play and stupid challenging to do anything for the first few weeks. Engravings...

That's an incomplete TLDR as it's missing the most important addition that's coming this patch (full notes: Lost Ark Academy - Artist Advanced Class) ENGRAVING SUPPORT SYSTEM As a new feature available with the Hyper Express Plus, the Engraving Support system lets players choose 4 engravings to...

That's the plan: Lost Ark year two aims to “greatly reduce the gap” between regions

New trailer for upcoming patches, focused mostly on Artist releasing next week: Looking forward to Artist as it's the first new class I'll be making since Scouter. Planning to push it to 1540 rapidly using the express pass. My roster has been shaping up rather nicely albeit I've slowed down...

Which is part of the massive failure in so far as potential D4 is concerned that bothers me. Old Blizzard never had any innovation -- what they did far better than anyone in the industry however was take concepts that other games of the genre had and refine / make them infinitely better. With...

Dragonflight is a perfect example of current Blizz. It isn't great and there are multiple moments of bad but it's nowhere near the shit tier level that Shadowlands was. I expect much of the same from D4; it's not going to be amazing but it'll be worth the box price even if you won't be playing...

I hate what Blizzard has become as much as the next guy but @Daidraco has a point here. Lets not pass up a perfectly good opportunity for multiple drunken gaming nights. D1 & D2 were staples of gaming and no matter how terrible D4 is (prediction: it's going to be insanely mediocre but nowhere...

This was a very quick uninstall. Not sure what the target audience is here (people who like Destiny raids but want swords instead?) but it's certainly lacking in multiple areas.

Feels good:

I feel like they undersold my accomplishments to be honest. They did give me this nifty trophy though: Also I'm officially 1 card away from LoS 30 & 7 ilevels from max. Pretty close to beating the game atm and this patch is absolutely amazing.

Looking forward to Artist! @BoozeCube It's time to come back.

Patch notes for the January update (Witcher island theme): https://www.playlostark.com/en-us/news/articles/january-2023-release-notes#ags-MediaPopup Surprised we got the pheons reductions early. It's good incentive to get my PVP build ready for Rowen next month!

This is a pretty terrible take all around. You're comparing yourself, who seems to have been trying to keep up with end-game players pushing well beyond minimum requirements (unsuccessfully) with someone who is saying he just wants to chill with the minimum amount of characters to be able to run...

You're starting fresh, correct? If so, you'll be running your main until you run out of things to do (which will happen shockingly fast). This is when you'll make your first alt, using any extra time you want to. You can gauge how many alts work for you from. Just some general advice: do some...

Probably a longer response than you were looking for but I think it's important since the subject isn't as simple as it is in other MMOs: All content is available to be played, traditionally directly at release provide you maintain a single character and complete all your tasks and are willing...

Guild updates: We are pretty consistent in raiding 3-4 times a week and continue to be (just like everyone) in need of support players. If anyone is interested in playing a Paladin or Bard and wants some help to start up in order to raid, feel free to PM me and I'll help set you up. We...
