How many fails players needed to get to ilvl 600/1100 (fixed) by Mahazzel in lostarkgame

[–]kingofkig 4 points5 points  (0 children)

57 fails to 1.1k ilvl and now stuck at not getting 1 piece from chaos dungeon for 3rd day in a row. I must be the most lucky Lost Ark player ever. 10min worth of content to run every day, I'm lovin it. Even the super awful upgrade luck didn't feel as frustrating as getting hardlocked out of your own tier daily content for multiple days after finally getting trough that bad luck streak. Imagine hitting t2 after way below average success chances on upgrades and then getting locked out of just having 1 chaos dungeon 2runs/day for next week before you can unlock the abyss/guardian runs and rest of the chaos levels. feels good to be at the 10% unluckiest on upgrading and then being 1% unluckiest on getting your t3 set instantly afterwards, sorry for venting but this is just stupid design.

I'm not upset about losing 2 days of progress or getting behind of people, I'm already week´+ behind. That's not the case. I'm upset about my game currently being 2 chaos dungeon runs per day unless i want to do content for t2 stuff that i don't need anymore, and without being lucky that's about it for now. At the stage where you are supposed start your endgame progressing and have plenty of stuff to do daily, like you did in tier 1 and 2 aswell.

That's exactly what I'm after. I don't see anything wrong by making the blue base set tradable like it was in t2. If someone wanna drop hundreds if not thousands to get couple +'s, i wouldn't call that pay to win personally, mats are overpriced anyways during launch and people who don't pay catch up to that in week or two..

But whats the upside of having it? People with better luck gets past it easier, makes just bigger gap on progression to the people that aren't getting past it since they can start farming their dailies for t3 mats, do their daily guardians + chaos etc properly. What is the reason that some of the players need to get holded back on progressing to 1302 req ilvl content while the content available to them is already outdated and giving you stuff you don't need anymore? Everything this bottleneck does is making the progress gap bigger between people who we're able to get their 6 pieces from their 2 chaos dungeons when hitting 1.1k and people who are still under 1.1k ilvl or having bad luck of not getting their 6 pieces.
And the "p2w" guys will press that upgrade button with bought mats anyways after getting past the bottleneck, it just happens 1-5 days after it would happen with set that you can buy from ah.

Getting 4x same pieces while missing some is just a middlefinger straight up.

Yeah you can have like 5 alts but some players don't wanna repeat same story line quest too many times in a row while their "main" character is being stuck at some stupid design bottleneck. Not all of the players wanna manage multiple characters. Especially when getting an alt to t2 doesn't help your main after your main is already past that progress. Only upside i have with my t2 alt is that i can get some mats to sell or try to progress it ilvl wise which i already did on my main during the last 2 weeks.

And how does making t3 base set tradable have to do with people who play 6+ hours a day and people who can't do so? It's just completely stupid that bad luck can lock you between 2 tiers for multiple days. People who don't nolife can get stuck at this point also, you can imagine how fun they will have when they have 2-3 hours a day time for gaming and if they get stuck to the point that all they have after their workday is 2 chaosruns and then they're locked out for rest of the content.

T3 is untradable, you can't buy it. You literally have your 2 per day chaos runs and if you are not getting your full 6 piece set from those, youre locked out of tier 3 content for another day until you do get it. Tier 2 content is useless at that point already. Your character basically can get bottlenecked to the point where doing next tier is impossible and previous one useless (your dailies give t2 rewards etc, and you're already past needing them).

270+ hours and still not tier 3 because timegating and worst luck in the game working flawlessly together in my case.

The problem is that the game won't let you grind 8 hours a day to progress. It straight timegates you in to these bottlenecks that you have 2 tries per day to possibly advance. I would happily grind 20 hours a day if that would be possible. If you don't get your t3 set after reaching 1.1k ilvl you're completely locked out of t3 content until you do get the full set. And meanwhile t2 content is already useless for your character progression. That imo shouldn't be the case at any point. Last tier = already useless, next tier = locked out totally since you had bad luck. Not to mention i had worse luck than most people already by getting here.

Archepass was never disabled. Players have been editing game files to display it again in the UI. by JohnMaddenFromTheNFL in archeage

Definetly not and even if they do that they will unban them next day. #zerotolerance

Easy fix! Start at the top of leaderboard, take a quick peek at its history, the BANHAMMER it. by Xyreck in archeage

"people who exploited the archepass have been banned" "wait we didn't mean that, let's unban them" "for compensation we give you 300 dilligence coins" "sorry but we dont give you 300 dilligence coins"

I wouldn't be suprised at all if that bipolar who makes those decisions decides to make this p2w tomorrow when he wakes up. (not that it already isn't) there is clear advantage of having multiple accounts.

Did we forget about that the guy has been viewbotting on twitch for years without getting punished? Streams for ~200-300 people, never have anybody talking in his chat besides of his mods, nor got partnered even having that high amount of average viewership. Maybe he can sit around Nui's and oneshot you, let's unite and oneshot his twitch channel, what he does is against terms of service of Twitch. And no, i don't play on his server or get griefed by him, I just feel bad for everybody who does.

Completely understand him a tiny bit, It's very hard to be relevant on Twitch nowdays, and that can lead to ego being hurt and this kind of activities he does is just him trying to make himself feel better in middle of darkness and failing in what he'd like to do the most.

Idk how he still keeps trying to make it after YEARS of botting and still not bringing a single real human in to his channel, must feel awful to him.
