    This patch is absolutely awesome. Thoroughly enjoyed clown and obviously Scouter is the definition of a fun and cool class. It's a shame that they broke the economy to such a miserable point and that only a few of us are left enjoying it.

    Server downtown was actually not bad. Patch is out (clown, Scouter, etc): https://www.playlostark.com/en-us/game/releases/rage-with-the-machinist

    As discussed with many of you, I'll be starting to host hell mode runs Thursday's after our normal raids effective tomorrow. The idea will be to set up a permeant group interested in these types of things, including deathless achievement runs. We'll see what the turn out is tomorrow and talk...

    Was fun having you join us for Valtan - hoping you can make it more often and start subbing in for Vykas as well!

    The Sandman

    I'm a pretty huge fan of the series and thought that this was pretty good. There were several changes made that bothered me more than others though the race changes and added woke stuff were all meh but I did finish it wanting more.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Had to fix this. While Ion is a massive problem even if they fired him nothing would change. Blizzard has been dead for almost as long as WoW was 'good' at this point. It's never going to change.

    This isn't just a victory for me. It's a victory for anyone who has a soul and wants to enjoy life. Perfect release schedule too, going to boost it up before Bralshaza.

    It's certainly frustrating and I think taking a little break is always a good idea, especially since it's summer. Vykas was really rewarding yesterday in that, our 2 pugs were fun to play with. 3 of us finished our 6 piece set because of it (of course @BoozeCube got fucked by the quality and no...

    This is downright impressive and you should be studied to better understand what occurred to make you hate yourself so much. The amalgam of the collection statues with the Gunlancer alts; my lord dude!

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    I gold medal'd all dungeons in Wildstar, which was a thrill to do and learn as a group, requiring pretty flawless play all around. It's okay to want a hard MMO -- there are ways to cater to this without making the game tedious as Wildstar did. Wildstar's content was purposefully aimed at a type...

    @Chimney Arcanist on Thursday with a power pass and ability to boost to 1370. You going to be playing one? The rotation is absolutely insane to get good at, so I suspect you'll enjoy it quite a bit. I'm still torn on whether I'll use it on that or a Destroyer. Next class release is going to be...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    Pretty much this. As someone who played with a static, Wildstar remains a highlight for me from an MMO perspective. Engineer remains one of the more 'fun' classes to play from a tanking perspective for me. While Datascape was amazing, I do think they wasted a tremendous amount of resources on it...

    No, first two gates on hard and third gate was on normal (half our raid hadn't done the third gate yet, so it was a learning running that we switched to normal for).

    We finally cleared Vykas as a guild. Was a great week on that front (after a rather sad Valtan experience). Good to get that done in the guild group since a lot of us had to pug. Special shout out to @Cyni for his clutch orb on G2.

    Lost Ark Online

    Had a hell of a work weekend and was only about to go one night for hard (cleared G1 with pugs). Hoping to have more time to commit next week. Vykas is certainly a pretty steep increase in difficulty for a lot of folks though, I truly do enjoy the gates.
  17. Voldeth

    Lost Ark Online

    That is impressive, nice man! We made great progress at Gate 1 but couldn't quite put it all together. Can't even imagine a 100% pug for Gate 2. G'luck with Gate 3 though :P

    They have done ban waves of gold buyers. It's just that their strategy is retarded and AGS is a clown show. Let's not pretend that this is new for MMOs though, how many MQ2 users did you know that outright abused it beyond being able to track? Pretty much this. I don't know anyone who went the...

    Yesterday was quite a good day. Honing worked out and got to 1492 (wanted 1490 for Vykas release, so ahead of schedule): Engravings are still a bit behind where I want them to be but I've gotten the main ones that I wanted for some time: And lastly, finally rocking my 4 piece which is...

    Ignoring the fact that AGS are complete incompetent idiots (which any non-retard would agree with) I don't get the outrageous over the patch day. They announced that the June patch would include Vykas and gave details of the update. Someone explain to me why anyone thought that it would be any...

    No worries, we'll be running legion raids till something better comes out. Just remember to keep giving me my crit buffs, thanks. As it relates to those who have reached out that are quitting: totally understand and no issues. Was a fun run. For those sticking it out: I still don't have any...

    All silver+ starter packs ($99.99 + $49.99 + 24.99) & 12,00 Royal Crystals for additional slots ($100.00) so about $275.00. So from a cost standpoint, I think the 1500 hours I have played was worth it. I'm also sitting on 1.6 million gold (lost about 100k switching to EO last night), which I...

    Pretty certain there are multiple people who want to murder you right now but congrats! Our hard mode Valtan clear tonight was incredibly smooth. We also finished 3rd in the PVE GVG & 4th in the PVP GVE rankings as of tonight. Still looking to add more forum folks that are looking for an MMO to...

    Yes to Valtan. You've made it to 1415. It's a fun encounter to learn -- even those who seem to be pretty burned out in the guild enjoy it. I think it would be pretty silly to make it there and quit before running it; it's the literal reward for putting up with that last bit of honing grind. If...

    I'll take a stab at answering this even if I fall deftly under the category of 'when I quit MMOs, I don't normally come back'. I'd be interested in hearing @Raes weigh in as well though because prior to launch he stated that he plays a lot and takes breaks fairly often, so his mileage will...

    I agree with the premise of this post however 500 hours is a weird cut-off for me. Most MMO players I know haven't gotten above 50 hours in a new MMO for the last decade or so. This is also a F2P game, so while I don't mind people who hate a lot about Lost Ark (I do too) I would hope that...

    It's Scouter but yes, I feel bad for me too. Vykas is sooner than I thought but thats more raid content this month and everyone enjoys Valtan, so it's more of the good content to do weekly (will also let us complete our sets).

    Lost Ark Online

    This is pretty much a confirmation that you're going to love all future content. The upcoming Legion Raids are all very similar in design and execution and then the added difficulty mode just makes things satisfying to master. There's a reason retention went way up when Legion Raids were released.

    Yeah, it's the Ironman class and insanely fun. I'm interested to see what the next classes they release look like on KR as Artist was conceptually really interesting. Grats! We cleared on Saturday and our pug support was going to have a heart attack on making sure I hit Thirain during the...

    The moment Scouter is released I'm basically instantly re-rolling my main, which is why I've been pretty cheap with my Soulfist in terms of buying materials (I didn't even bother boosting to 1475 and I'm sitting at 1465). I have a lot of strong dislikes about the game but classes & combat are...

    Are you enjoying the scrapper as much as I am? The buffs were intense for a class I already liked but it feels really good to play now.

    I'll take a stab at this (albeit, I don't want to speak for Gravel & Booze even if I'm using them as examples of what I believe to be the problem): To start with Booze as an example, here's someone who has been playing more than I have these last few weeks. He's dedicated, advancing, and playing...

    Lost Ark Online

    The changes for certain classes (such as Soulfist) ultimately eliminated a fair amount of the nuisance of the class. Thus they adjusted it in a lazy manner (7% damage increase) which brings the numbers more in line with what they want them to be. I was disappointed by this as the PTR changes...

    We've discussed it in guild chat quite a bit but it amazes me that MMOs don't have a system in place for this. All it takes is a vendor with all of this stuff and a currency that goes to your special tab. You can even make it absurd (like needing to kill it 100x times for enough currency for the...

    Little jealous. I've not missed a single Moake rotation and started clearing him before most. I'm almost level 59 and just +20'd my weapon tonight but I still don't have the star. It drives my OCD absolutely insane.
