So I am still really early in the game, but I get these cards periodically, but when I go into the card menu, none of them show up on the left side in the 'sets' in order to put them in my deck. Instead they are showing up on the "books" tab where I can umm... look at them? I'm kinda confused, but I'm guessing that maybe I need a full 'book' and then that actually becomes a 'card' on the first screen as part of an even larger set? Is that right, or am I just doing something stupid?

I'm playing on HDD and I get the texture streaming too but it goes away a few seconds after loading. Path of Exile used to be way worse for me even on an SSD.

I’m on a 3080 and the graphics look great and your card is plenty powerful enough for the game. I’ve also run the game on several iGPUs and it runs and looks pretty drat good. Maybe it’s a resolution issue? This game doesn’t play nice with some resolutions for some reason. It hates 16:10 that’s for drat sure. The graphics should be super sharp for you.

From what I understand the books are just collections and once a book is complete you get a roster-wide passive bonus from it. There's also some stuff about leveling up cards but you shouldn't pay any attention to that for now. The cards you learned should be there in your card menu. You drag them from the left to the slots in the middle to equip them.

Okay, so maybe I'm not actually getting cards, even though the game calls them cards, as they are in the 'book' tab, not the cards tab where you build decks. Like from Prideholm I got Neria and Arwen or something, but they only show up on the books tab.

Books give you passive always-on stat bonuses for completing them. Sets give much larger and more significant bonuses, but only when equipped into your 6 card slots. You have just been unlucky and haven't found any equippable cards yet. For example, the "Master of the Island" card book includes both Blackfang and Puppa the panda. If completed, it gives a passive +3 bonus to your phys and mag def.  Blackfang is also part of the "Pirate Generation" set alongside some other pirate cards, which gives +100-300% damage to lucky monsters:  But Puppa is not part of any sets -- he's not an equippable card, just a passive collection-boosting one.

This game has some annoying bugs. If you disconnect mid qbyssal dungeon you get locked out for the week and can't progress. Also some questionable decisions. In a game where everything is Auto loot, having to loot guardian bosses sucks. 16 minutes to kill that fox and i zoned out without looting it.

You're normally able to disconnect without losing your weekly run. That's a side effect of the EU servers making GBS threads the bed and being generally overloaded iirc. Amazon support is reportedly saying they can't help you if you get this bug. But players from the RU servers say that when this bug happens to them they're able to contact support about it and they'll get a magic debug ticket in their mail that resets their weekly abyss lockout.

Game is definitely pixelly and blurry as poo poo for anything not in the immediate foreground for me, like when im on a cliff and see mobs moving below. But personally i've been amazed at how well it runs at all, considering my graphics card is a ... checks... NVidia GeForce GT 730, which is a budget card that's almost 8 year old card at this point. I've had no issues with the framerate dropping low really. Altho, the framerate for trash enemies does sometimes drop very low, not sure how the game dynamically alters that but sometimes ill be moving around smoothly while npcs are like sliding at me with like 3 frames of animation

rap music posted:I haven’t done excavating much either but the cave that unlocks at stronghold level 10 seems really good for it (along with hunting and fishing) since all you have to do is loot jars instead of hunting for artifacts with sonar and digging for them I think there's a daily limit on those. They're also bound and use separate recipes.

Best use of gems I’ve seen so far The bonus on this auto fast sail skin is also p good, a 30% proc chance to refill the gauge a tick away from full on each fast sail. I put this skin on my White Wind that has a higher rate of fast sail regen, and it's like auto fast sail half the time. Also a tip for when putting orders on the price-regulated currency exchange for near instant processing. Don't put an order if there's like 100k+ queued in front of you, wait for the system to bump up the allowed price by one and quickly list at the new price. e.

It feels deeply rude that they charge gold to craft stronghold decorations, especially since afaik I won't get anything from making Stinkbog Castle the prettiest island in the sea.

You can spend raid tokens to purchase stronghold stuff, but it's just individual pieces rather than what I thought was a recipe Also, stronghold goals: https://old.reddit.com/r/lostarkgame/comments/sx3c6z/my_stronghold/ no idea you could make your characters sit in a chair til now, what a game changer

The other source of confusion I've seen in this regard is the first time you pick up a card the game is going to give you a "equip cards" task in the newbie journal, which you probably can't do since in all likelihood the first card you get isn't actually equippable.

It "skips" to where I would have been if the screen hadn't frozen. It's persisted over two fresh installations, on a 2070. No idea why, no other game I own does this. It happens constantly too, I have to actually plan around it. It seems, although I'm not 100% sure, to happen when it's drawing new poo poo on the screen, it feels like a video cache swap.

Don't convert the coins to pirate coins unless you 100% know what you want to buy with it and its more important than what you get from the Ginnea coins. You can buy giant hearts and a tons of tother things with Gienna coins.

Yeah, it was what was confusing me.. get a card, given a task for that and.. nope! Finally got a few cards I can equip, so now I'm good with this, it's really two systems (your deck + books) but they really don't explain that at all. I originally started a shadowhunter, but never really clicked with me so started a berserker and I like it a lot more, but does seem squishy and I burn through a lot of potions, but that's probably more to do with me being slow reacting and getting caught in obvious tells too often than a class issue. I've been blowing through all the dungeons solo on hard without a problem and then I got to the underwater city dungeon. Man I was unprepared for how long that thing was, and those huge swarms of fast moving critters made it pretty interesting due to the slow wind-up/charge times on lots of my skills, but managed to not die. Is that dickhead priest ever going to stop interrupting the cool fights to show off his priestly banish the darkness crap? It's getting old... I was handling that stupid boss (and the sandworm outside leading to it) just fine without his annoying meddling...

For people with blurry visuals regardless of the game, one thing you should check is whether you have image scaling set to have the monitor handle it. Setting that to have the GPU handle image scaling fixed my blurriness issues, and that took me a while to figure out and drove me insane.

I just got to the part where you fill up your card library and have to pay more to unlock more space. None of the other systems do this. I'm struggling to bother as all these types of purchases are just roster/character wide, if they were account wide I would feel much better about it.

Actually standard kmmo would be more like the item goes *down* in level when you fail an upgrade, or maybe it just is destroyed outright (unless you use the cash shop item protection insurance). This is relatively merciful as far as korean stuff goes. In my mind it's not that different from doing a WoW raid and welp you didn't get your drop from the boss you needed, except you probably don't have to wait a week to try again in LA.

I am probably going to quit the game. I have gotten to the guardian raids and abyss dungeons, but currently at tier 1, most bosses have a weird quirk that does not feel fun. I like the teamwork mechanics, but most of them have very fast attacks with very little to no tell. I have done them on my main (Paladin) and my alts (Bard and Gunlancer), and if you are just at the recommended item level, some of those quick attacks eventually add up to decimate your health. For example, for the Necromancer's Origin Abyss, Garum has some cheeky lunges, and my bard kept dying to them. Sometimes, the dragon would just lunge from offscreen; one time, I had Garum do a lunge right after I stayed in the safe circle next to him. Sometimes, Garum even goes for a double lunge i.e. a lunge right after a lunge. Only my main felt smooth enough because my paladin was at a much higher ilvl that the cheeky lunges were like a mosquito bite while my alts burned through my potions. (This is also including the fact that I manage to "Find Party" where everyone was at a much higher ilvl to tank and dps a decent amount of margin of error.) The public "Matchmaking" can also screw you over; on my bard, I once got grouped up with another bard, and we did not have enough DPS for Sigmund despite following all (or most) of the other mechanics. I believe the meta/tryhard route at tier 1 (aside from grinding up 5 alts already) is to have one main pushing for 460 and two powerpass at 340 ilvl for the weekly dungeons, but I do not know how their 340 ilvl alts can deal with the necromancer. I would imagine the players who thought of that route has a guild to support their alts in tandem.

Yeah, it's pretty unforgiving as a non tanky character and lot of random bullshit can happen. It's not at a ragequitting point to me yet, reached 420 ilvl avg without failing a honing yet so I hope to get to the 460 content and maybe peak out there for a while
