I will use every card and also spend my random free crystals to increase my card storage and there's nothing anyone can do to stop me. I'm still mad that I've gotten a grand total of three legendary packs so far and I got Thirain from two of them. I feel like if I could get an Armin card it would complete like 12 sets...

Good Citizen posted:I think the only way you can ‘gently caress up’ with cards is if you spend a lot of card XP enhancing cards that you aren’t going to use long term since card XP is relatively slow to collect. So just don’t touch the enhancement page of your card catalogue until you understand what makes sense to enhance It’s this. Card xp comes really really slow. Learn or save every card (if you don’t expand the card storage you can put them on an alt).

Can cards not end up taking up regular inventory space or something? Oh, also: does Adventure Tome completion happen gradually or in tiers? Sometimes I do some progression and I don't see anything budging, but I don't know the exact breakdown of what matters the most for progressing Adventure Tomes. kliras fucked around with this message at 01:48 on Feb 20, 2022 |

Well, that celebration gift just dropped. I made level 50 earlier today and have been just wandering around catching all the purple quests that unlock everything as I'm just getting started in vern right now. Now that I'm on my second ship and know more are coming, is there a point to each ship? I know the vern's ship is important so I'm left wondering if the other previous ships are junk once you get it. And likewise, did I accidently waste ship material bits (not blueprints thankfully) on the white wind boosting it to level 3. Or for that matter, outside of crew slots and apparently speed, is there much reason to even upgrade your ship. Also still trying to find a way to get pirate coins. The stronghold missions completely changed and now I have quests that reward way more tokens so I assume pirate coins. But also take more coins and I'm sitting on best adaptation of 44% which doesn't bode well to me getting the coins back that I put in initially.

The big piece of advice I'd give is when you get the pets from the twitch drops, it's a good idea to select one with either fire or wind as their element since the earliest stronghold dispatches have ice, fire and wind as their elements and the bunny everyone gets in Prideholme is ice.

Is 2:00 am and I have to sleep, but is awesome to be queue to a dungeon and it to launch with other players. Living in Kadan is like playing a different game. Did a serie of chaos dungeons with random people, and while is a useless thing, was kinda hilarious to nuke large groups of creatures with ulties. Love my sorcer so far, except against hard content where it dies too quick.

Spare some knowledge on a few unrelated questions that have been kind of cropping up in the playthrough. Does Attack Speed impact only the basic attacks having no effect on abilities? I've kept my reward books unopened in their chests still to be selected from, is there a tier list of engravings worth pursuing in the long run? Is there a minimum about of points to be dumped into Endurance for endgame as not appear too squishy? Has anyone claimed the Prime loot yet - how many amethyst shards?

I just hit 50 on my first class. This guide someone posted earlier looks good, but I'm unsure about something. I hit level 50 in Athetine, the techno place, but as far as I can tell chaos dungeons and stuff get unlocked in Vern? Am I better off swapping over to Vern to unlock that, or do I have to both ark quests to unlock this stuff?

EVERY TIME GOING posted:Spare some knowledge on a few unrelated questions that have been kind of cropping up in the playthrough. 1. Attack Speed applies to everything. 2. This is a quick-and-dirty list by class. 3. No. Everyone pretty much just specs all-in on DPS and dodges mechanics. If you need durability for specific mecahnics you time Gunlancer/Bard/Paladin mitigation for those effects.

If anyone cares, the Terpion of the Shadow horse is way cooler than the white one imo. The white horse just has normal wings not cool translucent wings with purple effects when you hit spacebar.

After leveling a Shadowhunter to 50 then boosting a Bard and a Gunslinger, the latter finally clicked with me - I can be Caitlyn+Miss Fortune+Graves and be able to chew through island questlines and other content quickly and while having a lot of fun. She'll be my main for questing and doing stuff after dailies are done. I still make fun of this game's garbage poo poo story and and pretty boring quests from 1-50 but man it is a hell of a good time after that.

Started my first alt and I'm already excited to start a second. Probably going to be painful once the powerpasses dry up though. I was worried it wouldn't be as smooth but basically everything I want is shared between roster/account/server whatever. Really liking this game.

What are the rewards for PvP? 3v3 is fun and if there's small PvE rewards for doing it even better.

HungryHungryHobo posted:Started my first alt and I'm already excited to start a second. Probably going to be painful once the powerpasses dry up though. After power passes you have Knowledge Transfer, which costs gold, and then stronghold training, which unlocks at 52 and goes to level-2. So there's a lot of systems for boosting alts. Hyper Inferno posted:What are the rewards for PvP? 3v3 is fun and if there's small PvE rewards for doing it even better. Currently I think the only reward is the weekly Una's Task for playing rounds, but presumably at some point they'll turn on ranked PvP and the associated reward system. This is what it looks like in the non-US version, but we don't know how AGS/SG will translate that for us.

After playing through tier 1 on my sorceress I can't wait to get all my stuff to +15 so I can unlock the tier 1 catchup and switch mains to my gunlancer. Gluing myself to the boss and relentlessly bashing it while no-selling its attacks is really fun after playing the squishiest class for a while.

Why aren't there any more pvp modes besides throwing players in the pit and letting the stunlocks decide the outcome? Why do I keep snagging onto all things underfoot like they're reusing invisible cacti for collision meshes? What is the great mystery behind how the emote list is ordered?

Yeah I think it’s pretty irrelevant. Even at 50 you get ~500 from Una’s task tokens every two weeks. You can get 200+ daily from adventure islands. Abyssal Dungeons award some amount of gold 6x/week.

Landing counters feels so good and the fact that the game broadcasts my accomplishment makes it feel even better. Landed 3 of them on the Scorpion boss. Makes me feel useful because my raid build for gunlancer seems pretty lacking in the DPS to me at least so far. Also why is everyone else bad? I don't think I've seen anyone use a flare or potion or battle item. They run around like headless chickens looking for a boss.

I haven't used any of the grenade/bomb battle items on my guardian raids. drat the extra DPS, that poo poo takes gold to craft! (Not to mention the lifeskill mat grinding.) I'll just save em for abyss raids and lategame stuff. The one exception is pheromone bombs which make life 10x easier. You use them when the guardian goes invulnerable and starts burrowing/teleporting away and bam he comes right back to where he was.

TeaJay posted:So basically the situation on EU servers is that matchmaking simply doesn't work (or works like 10% of the time), even with set parties. So no endgame stuff, dungeons, anything. So far I haven't heard any official word on the devs on the situation, but the longer this keeps up, the more players quit frustrated and will not return. There are some vague "we're looking into it" type responses on this from the devs: https://forums.playlostark.com/t/eu-matchmaking-needs-a-fix/155644/56 Hopefully they fix it soon - it even happens when there's no queue on the server so the EUW launch probably won't fix it. It's pretty bad that amazon are having so many server capacity issues when they're meant to be running this stuff on AWS. If nothing else, scaling out servers should be the one thing they can do easily.

I'm maining Gunlancer and at least in T1 group content going blue gunlancer seems a lot more useful. Lots of support and CC and with Bash and Dash Upper Fire you have 2 great counters so most of the time you can counter just by spamming skills. I guess once you have more engravings is when red gunlancer gets competitive against the more dps focused classes while still offfering a bit of support with the cc.
