42k consecutive users while also being #5 in play time in KR during the same time period over a year after release for an MMO while that time period also encompasses the release of a AAA ARPG that's been the most anticipated title in the last 5 years or so is 'literally a dead game'? You...

The $70 was worth it for the launch and getting to catch up with some forum folks for 4-5 days of killing shit and enjoying the new game feel. With that being said, you are absolutely delusional if you don't feel that the drop off has been massive this weekend and indicative that this game will...

Lasted? Elgacia in 4 days, Hell clown July, Aeromancer & Akkan August. Still going strong and getting monthly content patches.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with this and I don't believe anyone is saying that there is, albeit the thread has been going quicker than I've been following. It sounds like you're having a great time and it was well worth the cost associated for the game as a result. The leveling experience...

This is pretty much the review of anyone who played this hard for the first week. The people trying to teach folks how wrong we are completed the story yesterday and haven't even gotten to WT4.

Got Temerity to drop last night and I am effectively unkillable on my rogue. At 71, I can do Nightmare dungeons that are +28 without mobs being able to even break through my shield. It's absolutely broken.

Yes. It's doable 60+, the only difficulty is the final boss, which is actually a decent challenge at that level.

Since the topic came up in Discord relating to why I enjoy LA more than D4, I'll be streaming a full day's worth of LA content for those on the fence of coming back tomorrow for the reset in Discord. A few things to note; 1- There is no longer any P2W in the game. I'm serious. You'd have to...

https://www.playlostark.com/en-us/news/articles/elgacia-arrives?language-picker=true Elgacia incoming!

Your friends are good people for pressuring you. I see no long term viability to the game however I've still had my money's worth from catching up with friends I hadn't played with in some time - there's really no reason not to enjoy this a bit and hop on Discord before the inevitable mass exodus.

Get a Sigil for Nightmare dungeons by completing the world tree, killing a world boss, or having a friend zone you into one of there's where you'll get one to drop. After that, you're doing nightmares non stop.

Pretty much this. These nerfs are just stupid. They're actively patching out good things and talking about how it doesn't fit their 'vision'. How much a vision where you buff shit that's below rather than nerfing and adding more goblins (not less) so people get more loot and enjoy themselves...

I don't disagree with this opinion and I traditionally would play hardcore. The problem is Diablo's design doesn't lend itself to hardcore and they did attempt to bring some more MMO concepts to the game, they just failed at it.

Not really sure I agree with most of this. I hit 55 last night and started doing Nightmare sigils, including ones that were +20 above my level. They were not difficult. They were not challenging. There was nothing innovative here. As an example to contrast: In Diablo IV I get a nightmare...

Made it to level 48 and completed the capstone dungeon, which was a joke compared to how it was made out to be. My review: 1- The itemization is really good. I was surprised by this but they did an amazing job and there's good build diversility. 2- The encounter design is an absolute joke from...

Chaos Dungeons & Guardian raids in Lost Ark are absolutely terrible. They are part of a philosophy that MMOs adopted long ago where they want people logging in every day because 'daily login metrics' and short term goals started to become more important to the genre than long-term retention...

I accept this as a compromise by virtue of my respect of those that maintain the moral high ground of not giving Bliz money. As a result, I claim the newly cemented "Blackjack & Hookers" channel and will see you there Thursday.

I'm disappointed here, Ut. I know I've missed out quite a bit when you've jumped into Discord but I was hoping you'd pick this up for release so that we can throw back a few and play something together. Speaking of, can we get 2-3 more channels added to Discord for launch?

The reviews of those that have experienced end game are already out. It's exactly what was expected. You'll be farming nightmare dungeons to level up your Glyphs; boss encounters are cool but the most challenging one has 1/50th the complexity of something like Lost Ark and the game is...

Game is the definition of a mediocre ARPG. With that being said, i'll be in Discord day 1 early access with most of you fucks in spite of that because the real value of the game is getting to play with some forum bros for a week and titles that allow for that are seldom these days.

I support giving gold to Cynnix so that I can begin charging him for carries!

...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...
