I am not one to judge someone based on how they use their time. Itās this guys life and time, if he wants to spent 900 hours playing Lost Ark thatās his choice. Who are we to judge him? The point I was trying to make is that thereās a large number of players who are 1400+ who have a fraction of time played compared to the OP who are being gated as a result of the out crying from more casual players.
900+ hours here too. Please delay 1415 content 
Iām still waiting for the 100% chance after the maximum amount of failures to reach 1370 
too much blablabla, from the text itās clear you are a pretty hardcore player, please let Amazon decide based on how many people have actually reached such a level instead of crying here
I think the premise of your post is faulty. Casual players are not going to know nor care about the latest endgame releases, the people complaining about the 1340-1370 grind and the early Argos release were hardcore and semi-hardcore players who, for whatever reason, were slightly behind the endgame gold rush and were annoyed about sharp the cutoff was.
In any end game rush thereās going to be winners who made it, and losers who were only slightly behind and didnāt make the cut. But rarely is this end game gold rush as sharp as it was in Lost Ark, where best in slot endgame accessories lost 80-90% of their value across the course of one week. This was further compounded by a) lvl 1340-1360 being a really incomplete content experience, b) lvl 1340 content not being very challenging, c) those first week Argos clears not really being about player skill but just about meeting the item level requirement to get through the door.
Releasing Argos ~4 weeks into the lifetime of the game, when it takes about ~3 weeks of grinding just to go from 1340 to 1370 was either a cynical move to āforceā players to spend to keep up, or it was stupid. No other explanations exist. And since the game heavily timegates your progression firstly that means that trying to ācatch upā even just a couple of days is extremely difficult but secondly it means they should have a pretty good idea on the rate of player progression.
You can say these players should simply not care about trying to keep up, but well they do. And considering the game released like 0 new content for 1340s alongside the Argos release and they did hype up Argos, so I do think the game was pressuring people to keep up.
But itās done now, and I do think the materials injection helped people catch up a bit without devalueing the effort of people who did manage to get to 1370+ already (like a major honing buff may have done). But still I think thereās an argument for letting things slow down, letting strong players plateau out so that others can catch up because there are some semi-hardcore players who if faced with the prospect of being permanently behind with no opportunity to catch up will simply quit. Having some catch up chances can resolve that.

And of course, on the other end, someone forced you at gunpoint to live inside the game since it released.
Agh he is just a whale that finally realized that he didnt have to swipe 
Only 25 world tree leaves?
Get back to farming, youāre not even halfway.
Once you have 48 of them, then you can complain.
You canāt expect them to pace the game around someone who spends their life on the game. Touch grass.
1415 content maybe next year at this point
I think OP makes valid points, however, I think certain people would benefit from touching grass.
great idea, amazon should follow thru with this, a reasonable opinion from someone who represents a good amount of players
ill cya outside brother touch grass

cant base the game on people not playing the game, stay home
The vast majority is NOT content on getting a second rate version of the KR one with less mats and gold so only whales got to do content.
I donāt know where you get this info but your opinion is not fact so either mention that you believe itās so or just donāt post at all.
You sound very condecending.
So was staying true to the game yet we got nerfed resources and less gold so are you just an ignorant clown or you already know this and you choose to ignore information that doesnāt support your point of view?
Heās trolling you at this point.
If got it and is one of those people that plays dumb or rages their opinion with entitlement.
Or even worseā¦ he still doesnāt understandā¦ and I hope heās supervised IRL.
i 100% agree, i have 800 hours also work from home probably 200 hours though is afk idle timer while doing work or eating/going to the shops
i have 6 characters in t3 all 1340 or above
please dont delay valtan i want to raid with friends ty
OP, you play games for 15-20 hours a day and steal money from a company. You donāt work from home. All that work you arenāt doing has to be picked up by your coworkers. If they donāt hate you, they should. Youāre a weight to be carried.
I agree with your first statement. If only whales got to do content, then thereās not much point for free to plays like us to play the game right?
To address your second concern, a lot of the statements I make are either prefaced with āI thinkā which in itself is an expression of opinion or I reference that thereās a community/official release post out there with the actual statement. I can give the reasoning behind why I think certain things, but itās pretty late over here so Iām just going to bed.
And finally meh w.e about the condescending part.
Have a good night then!
And to answer your question yes, there is no point and thatās what I dislike.
Whatās even worse is they donāt have the common sense to shut up and enjoy the game, they have to come here and complain and moan like spoiled brats.
