I really want to know how the backend is architected if you can have a successful open Beta period and then get stuck like this on open release. As far as I know the game never even went live so people could try to login. Is there a hard coded number somewhere that wouldn't work when they tried to spin up one server too much?

Do you get any class engravings for your alt when you power pass them or are they kinda stuck with nothing? Also, do you have to go through their awakening quest?

According to this guide: https://www.reddit.com/r/lostarkgame/comments/su1694/how_to_farm_engraving_books_for_your_characters/ The engraving book rewards aren't one time only?

FutureCop posted:Right now I'm deciding between Scrapper and Glaivier to be my third alt - who gets the powerpass? Tempting to also use it on paladin in the hopes that parties are better in later tiers and therefore feel not feel so hopeless playing a support (I think Gunlancer is the superior support anyway). I main paladin and it really isn't that bad at stagger and destruction if you squeeze in Punishment and take the right tripods. Executor's Sword and Punishment as a one two feels pretty good during stagger checks. You do have to play careful that Executor's Sword isn't on cooldown during the important timings but it's not really any worse than playing Sorceress and needing Punishing Strike. Glaivier seems pretty good and I kinda want to Feiton PP it but I'm also not sure if I want to use it on a bard or deathblade instead.

CAPTAIN CAPSLOCK posted:imo Charge is the pick to swap for things. I like having Godsent around to save people from death or just tank mechanics. I personally got rid of Godsent because it's long CD and hard to land at the right times. The damage is pretty crap too. I don't get why the meta build emphasizes max dps on everybody and then tells Paladin to take that skill. Charge is also pretty forgettable but moving faster between encounters is nice.

Hefty posted:you are taking the shield and 70% damage resist tripods…right? paladin is strictly a support (for group content) and any damage is incidental to some other affect. charge is great for positioning and once you’ve got enough points you get a personal shield as well. Yeah but you basically have to be free and ready to shield a dude right when he takes a big hit. You can't really cast it below a boss for dps because the DR only lasts for a second and people should be avoiding hits entirely. Not to mention most of the time somebody needs it you're also dodging poo poo so standing still to save somebody else will just get you killed. It just feels bad to use most of the time for the maybe 1% chance you can actually use it for something cool. Maybe some later fights will have mechanics more suited for it or maybe I'm just not good enough, but I'm not a fan at all.

afkmacro posted:So I'm a big casual and I'm stuck currently because I ran out of this thing called oreha fusion material. Where do I get more besides the auction house? Auction house is the best way, otherwise you have to craft them at your stronghold from fishing, excavating, or hunting mats.

Discospawn posted:2 questions from somebody who hasn't played the game but has become interested in keeping track of the problems Lost Ark has been having with bots: On NA West, there are definitely still bots and early game areas had bot trains even immediately after the ban. Gold selling spams did get a bit better but that's coming back as well. There are definitely a lot of chinese players on NA West as well, lot of party finders advertising in chinese with wechat codes.

I feel like I sorta liked the raiding in Lost Ark but I quit shortly after Vykiss. Grinding dailies and chaos dungeons with x alts just for currency got really dull. The raids were cool the first time but doing them over and over again every week with multiple characters just got daunting after a bit.

Scoss posted:Endgame progress that is nothing but highly choreographed puzzle fights where each participant must study the encounters in detail using external materials, rather than engage in a natural learning process involving trial and error (otherwise known as "playing a game") is an absolute kiss of death. It leads to an insane level of toxicity and social barriers between people already inside the club because they rode the first wave VS everyone else trying to get in. Total poison for new and returning players. Isn't that the basic WOW raid formula though? Feels like it's been that way in every MMO. The only thing uniquely bad about Lost Ark is that we were getting catch up content from Korea so all the tactics were figured out for everybody period instead of everybody except day 1 raiders.
