I’m still debating rerolling on the goon server instead of playing on Valtan with my two friends. Before it gets too late and I’m super invested

Are all chests with general gear - that you don't pick yourself - a fixed ilvl, specific to quest, monster, or how does it work? I just defeated Chuo (48), and was wondering whether I should open the purple chest now, or how drops like that work in the game.

I noticed that the general chest rewards in the main story have fixed ilvls, but no idea how it works for this.

You can do cross server (but not cross continent) dungeons/raids through the party finder so even if you played on the same server with your friends it wouldn't be impossible to do cross server stuff with goons.

Correct, no one else wanted to bring this game to the west. SmileGate was shopping it around for awhile. I don't like AGS, but other MMORPG publishers, like NCSoft, Gamigo (jesus christ this would have been the nuclear option), and Perfect World, are the absolute loving worst. Far more terrible than AGS is. This was the best case scenario for Lost Ark. Does LA still deserve better? Yes, absolutely, but this was the best publisher that exists for the game.

Thankfully Activision doesn't really touch MMORPGs. They have World of Warcraft and are fine with keeping it that way for now. They don't buy up developers unless they want to convert them into making Call of Duty.

You can do endgame stuff with goons regardless as that's all DC-wide. Being on the same server only matters for overworld/leveling type stuff and being in a guild together.

Claimed the hover mount! Don't have to watch these big streamers anymore for drops. Thank you everyone by the way who got Lost Ark mounts through my streaming over the last week. I am going to continue streaming Lost Ark on Twitch too, this is going to be a long term hobby for me, at least that is the plan. :)

Oh that’s good. That’s not that bad then I suppose. I’m mostly missing the guild chatter but with the guilds being so loving small it doesn’t even matter, I’ll just pay attention to the discord and see when events or whatever come up

Honestly I thought the dungeon was the worst because if you ran it in a party not everyone got a gundam at the same time so you'd have one or two people in a giant robot murdering everything and then the other people just running along. I liked the zone though I'm still hoping we get to murder at least some of the Stern Senate at this rate.

Only one of the three teams has hit T4 -- are you definitely watching one?

Mine is showing progress as I'd expect but I've had inconsistent results from that in the past.

"ivE pLayeD eVErY PVPmmO siNce ULTiMA onLINe"

and I've never once played a 'core' class like a Warrior or Mage unless it was ultra meta but I'm having a ton of fun playing a Berzerker. This is usually the time I start second guessing my class choice but instead I'm poopsocking not to get to end game but to get the next neat skill that makes the screen go boom


Don't really see any others though

edit: I cannot find a hotkey setup that feels right. Point and click freeing up WASD is overwhelming.

Mega-old post but I hosed around some and dodge on Shift, heal-over-time pots on T has been doing good things for me. Pinky on Shift, then the rest on Q-W-E. Auto-run on my forward side mouse button. I have auto-attack on Spacebar right now but I'm thinking about swapping it out for either awakening skill or class special skill since its basically unused. I use V for push-to-talk with my thumb anyways.

Oh and I swapped inventory to ~, world map to Tab, and area map to M and it feels pretty good. Z & X are kind of a pain but I can do everything else critical pretty easily without stretching hard or contorting my hand.

Oh, didn't realize that they have to hit different milestones. I'll just keep watching my streamer repping the good team :911:

Rhino, you did this to me!

What i've been doing is opening up a bunch of streams at once; there should be a popup above chat that tells you what drop watching them will get you. Choose which stream you want since you can only progress with one. Right now i'm getting progress towards the mount from twitch.tv/fextralife, yesterday i got both the bird and the fox thingy.

i have no idea how the milestones thing works honestly. I just go to the lost ark search page and open up a bunch of the top streamers to see what they have.

sure okay

I absolutely despise the keybinding limitations in this game. I've been playing wow for 15 years hitting 1 for healing potions, not F1 (among other things). Not being able to use shift. Not being able to rebind G to something sensible and H which has been my mount key forever. I'm actively having less fun and getting frustrated because I'm constantly fighting muscle memory.

Venting over.

The only really annoying thing is not getting those 20 free class engraving books while leveling, so if you didn't save them from your first character (they're not character-bound) you either have to buy more on the AH or do islands for them.

No.

The big pain is if you switch mains after investing a bunch of resources into your old main's gear and engravings, you're gonna have to replace those resources to get your new main up to where your old one was.
