Honestly it would be nice if raids has an easy(like solo mode difficulty)-normal-hard and optional inferno mode(according to smilegate not popular). Dream come true if solo mode expanded and added hard mode solo with more gold(that will never happen) and even better if next to solo mode they added a mode that you could start with less than the required people so you can play with friends and not just solo, if you wanna say bring them back and teach them without the pug part. All raids apparently can be solo-duo-4 man bussed anyway so this doesn't contradict anything and all they gotta do is code an 'invite friend' button but yeah..
I can relate to the shotcalling being hard so much lol. I considere myself quite good, and here you talk about the skill lvl going down when shotcalling, in my case it's my shotcalling that takes the hit. Sometimes I end up speaking unintelligible stuff because i'm focus on too many things at once lmao
i get 200k gold from ignite server, i can boost easy through story every alt character of mine and get broke again after its done xDDD Im so glad to hear that Saintone has some opinions about the Raid difficulty and solo-Raids that are similar to what the playerbase want
they were solid a tier dps from valtan to Akkan. only suffered when major balance patch and elixirs dropped last year. worst part was thaemine but its still extremely popular.
1:24:10 i'm not an hell mode enjoyer but i hate when things don't have like a clear continuity xD same like in story movie/series, so imho they should release both hell equalized, and also keep making extreme mode like valtan as limited time event from time to time... both is good basically.
Not only do ppl treat teammates as bots sometimes, I find most of them treat teammates as competitors for cruel fighter and they treat each other hostily a lot of times. It's like you are not fighting the boss, you are fighting your teammates for MVP.
1:14:09 this is why I think a legal bible would go a long way, with records of the people's performances and such. While it would solve a lot of misconceptions, of people being sus ot other people, it do be having it's own drawbacks, where it would rat out people, who wouldn't perform, but if you think about it, making different skill groups, like in KR would be easier. Also on the sidenote, I think thats a great system they have, albeit I don't know how well it works in practice, but the idea is great.
im really excited for t4 but in the same time im pretty sure its gonna be frustrating later on been 1660 having to push 20 ilvl to 1680 to use the ancient accs without ancient accs sure you get lot of dmg just from aegir armor + activating ark passive for stats but not getting to the buttom of the tree i feel like its gonna frustrate a lot of ppl
Ive shared my thoughts with people i play with often when it comes to LoS, and it really sucks. I started dec 31st. I have 1500, and i still only have LoS22. Legendary packs simply do not give me LoS cards. I have saved 17 selectors, yet still need 12 more cards. I do abyssals, i do challenge abyssal, i do all i can, but simply because my legendary packs only give me KLC and random cards 90% of the time, i get gatekept, despite the fact i compete with other players without cards. It really sucks
why the f they dont enable multiple tickets to be spend on cube entrance and getting xNumberoftickets loot... i mean some ppl have few houndreds of it xD
Forcing experienced players play with new players would just lead to people being so tilted they stop playing the game from being jailed. Hell Brel is more annoying to play than fun, that's why most people didn't bother in my opinion. There's also more stuff to do like elixirs. transcendance, Thaemine G4 and 'The First' for example.
Regarding the raid difficulty, mechanically speaking they've gotten easier, but they are overdoing it with their length and their overall HP. Case in point, the current raid, where the HP is so damn high and the DPS check very unforgiving. And normal mode should be a chill experience.
The latest raid is one big training dummy that does less than one dangerous pattern a minute, you can revive eight times in the middle of the raid, there’s barely any mechanic and the dps check is anything but unforgiving even if you haven’t finished the previous vertical systems. There are a lot of things to complain about with Lost Ark but Behemoth is not one of them.
@@alwar8563 You lack the ability to think reasonably. Let's compare Echidna G2 NM and Behemoth G2 NM, 2 1620 raids. In behemoth the punishment for messing up a mechanic is death or a massive debuff. In echidna, most of the meter mechs can be failed and only snakes really matter and can be trivialized with flames. It's easy to see all of echidna and dodge all of her dangerous attacks. In behemoth your vision is often obscured and you don't get to see the tells as well. Echidna is also demon type for an easy 5%+ and has an attack steroid in basement with a 12.5M DPS average. Behemoth has a stronger steroid but is ancient type which we can't do any extra damage on yet. Reasonable DPS for this would be around 15-18M DPS, but it's 25.5M DPS.
@@alwar8563 That is only if you overgear it. 1620 parties are jails worse than Thaemine/Echidna at item level. When I go on my main and 2nd main, both of which are overgeared, Behemoth is a breeze, because I pair up with people that have similar gear and item level as mine. But when I go on 1620 alts, all hell breaks loose. This week I went on my Artist and Bard, both of which are 1622, 75+ transcendence on both. On Artist, it took me about 8-10 hours to clear g2, and swapped over a dozen lobbies. On Bard I have not yet cleared g2. Most parties are not able to maintain any revives until 190 bars. And the dps check at wings is unforgiving at item level. Behemoth the way it was calibrated for 1620, especially g2 is a design failure, and even AGS admitted it. They shrugged it off though because T4 is coming and we gonna get a 20 item level boost and T4 gear, which is a net damage increase. So rather than fixing the issue, they ignored it and let us suffer. They calibrated the raid for full transcendence, despite opening up full transcendence to us only with the raid release. So sorry, but you are out of touch. So please, be quit if you don't know anything.
@@kyle784 Not to mention that you could do easily Echidna NM with just 40 Elixir. People are now asking for lv7 Transcendence on chest and pants to speed run it, but until a month ago, the raid was perfectly clearable with just 40 Elixir. Behemoth, another 1620 raid is not clearable with just 40 Elixir. And often times it is not clearable even with chest/pants Transcendence on 1620 alts. This raid was supposed to be a chill one. Much easier than your Legion/Kazeros raids. But instead AGS/SG decided to turn it into a shitshow fiesta by calibrating it for full transcendence. And lets face it, on 1620 alts, the only way you can attain 25.5M DPS is with full transcendence and lv9 gems, or with chest/pants lv7 transcendence and lv10 gems on main DPS skills. Anything less than this simply does not meet the DPS check for the average player. Anyway, this guy has been trolling around here, always replying with stupid counterarguments. The token of a brain-damaged Lost Ark player.
@@Kalimdor199MenegrothI think we need an easy T4 raid in a similar vein to how Oreha was for T3 as a solid gold-base for new players to be able to do each week. They no longer make easy raids on ilvl, and something outside the Legion Commanders makes the most sense. There's a good reason why new player retention is so low. They can't do any of the newest raids. They get no gold. Nobody wants to play with them at risk of getting jailed. Make a raid so easy people can use matchmaking like guardians.
27:30 yes i wanna have fun not grinding alt rosters not cutting again trans and elixir on all my alt six times, and not doing raid like g4 tae for income
ngl elixirs low key still kinda suck balls. i actually prefer transcendence over elixir just because there is a pity system, while elixirs still can frick you even if youre able to choose one line. dont get me wrong im grateful i can at least do that and it helped, but yeah.
im sick of doing 20+ minute fights. thats like double the length a fight should be. if anything kills the game for me its long fights with multiple raid wipes especially near the end of the fight. sick of it.
@@Ronaldinhoo111 what about you leave? Not everyone is a swiper or rmt'er to have the ilvl to be at brel on release. AND we wont even have full ancient gear if it comes on dec due to how little mats you get from aegir. That shit needs to be delayed AT least till february
@@TheAndyzilla Stop ruining, if you cant make it there it doesnt mean others cant, others have grinded hard or swiped hard to get there, and they cant have fun because you decided to be lazy? stop ruining others fun. nobody is ruining your fun either
@@Ronaldinhoo111 At least 4 months should pass from now on between raid releases. To give enough time for both normal mode and hard mode enjoyers to get their stuff in order and focus on the new raid. So yes, a February 2025 release for new Brel raid is more than fine.
@@Ronaldinhoo111 who says "im ruining fun"? Im having fun with the game but that doesn change the fact releasing this raid so soon is objectively wrong.If you swiped you have no right in this conversation. If you saw the video it takes months to attain full ancient gear, and brel is balanced around having that system fully fleshed out. And even then koreans cant clear/have very difficult time in doing so because its too difficult with their juiced characters. You think your pleb ass will clear without even having full ancient gear because you wont have enough time to get the materials? You are delusional. Im sayin this for the best of the game interest, otherwise is gonna be like og brel and ppl will just quit because the game is too hard. Think outside of yourself and ur own benefit and think of the overall health of the game.

Another EU player here took a break after thaemine and echidna released, and came back recently and for a couple of weeks I cannot get into an echidna behemoth or thaemine lobby although I'm above ilv and got 40 elixirs but because I didn't play on release and got a magic title I cannot join lobbies, and learner lobbies don't work due to time constraints so I'm stuck doing akkan and ivory tower which is getting infuriating

im curious how t4 gears interct with t3 ones, like when t3 comes if you use a t3 gear the jewelry stats nerfed to 50%
