Same, Honestly I compare the 1460 spot the same boat at the 1400 spot. Doesn’t really get much and is more the stepping stone to the next. 1475 is pretty decent wtih 1490 being the ultimate goal.
I’ll add kuku but were not sure on his gold reward, ill put it at 4500.
Thats how it looks like for me rn. Today i got my Bard to 1430 next step is to get the other Alts all to 1400 step by step. Then starting with Shadowhunter to 1415.
Push alts to 1430, let the fused leaps do the work to 1445 for you while you gather the materials for the relics. If by the time you have all the relic materials and not pushed yet, finish the push to 1445 and stop there and only hone with the fused leaps and bound mats until your main is super ready at like 1520.
Hell if you wanted to make it simple, just run normal valtan with the 1445. HM doesn’t give “that” much more mats really and 1445’s generally will get easy invites to normal valtan even at lower engraving levels like 4x3 legendary. HM’s really start wanting you to have full relic and players judging 5x3s. As your lvl goes above the minimum, players start overlooking your gear a little more. Much more chill for yourself too since your 30 ilvl higher then valtan instead of at level in HM.
Ya not sure on the crowd for 1445 HM valtans since I have a group that runs it on my dps alt and my bard alt is a support, insta group :P. Just was saying you could run normal valtan and be pretty chill and generaly get into most groups due to being 1445.
That’s true, 1385 is fine. I pushed a bit higher to not get oneshoted at Argos G2/G3. No fun watching the fight from the floor. But yeah it’s not necessary, good point.
Honestly that purple accessory is a red flag. I’m not picky with engravings so I very rarely reject for things like this but purple necklace on a 1430 character? What? It almost looks like you’re trolling for fun.
Agree, if I see an Epic Neck at Vykas it’s a little bit concerning. You can get close to 1600 Spec with a high quality Relic Neck, 2 Earrings, and 2 Legendary Rings. So at this point the gap is ~180 Crit, ~380 Spec lost (ofc most important for Blue GL), lower Vitality. Wouldn’t take this character unless it was Tuesday before reset.
people seem to understimate time. Having the Relic sets available to you make your deskaluda from 5 mins to 3 mins. Literally go to 1445 and save shit loads of time.
I mentioned with TIME is the real value to consider and it looks like AGS is trying to meet its QFR’s (Quarterly Financial Report) deadlines.
Argos - March QFR date: March 30th
Vykas - June 30 QFR date: July 30th
Clown - September? QFR deadline: September 30th
Brelshaza - December? QFR deadline: December 30th
The only separated real value will be Holidays (Summer / Winter vacations but it exactly lands on those dates). Black Friday, the last week of November. I can assume before Brelshaza will have another pass similar to Punika Pass (more likely free) around that date. Also with how they stack events, I assume we will have more events that induce more free-bound mats. December one will be more likely huge to entice new and returning players. Also, a lot of people are more frivolous with spending during the holidays since they account for the end-of-the-year bonus, etc.
Of course, they can always delay but that often leads to people getting fired or stepping down. Investors and shareholders do have a huge say.
I don’t see the rationale for not releasing a major update in December. But I can see the delay and use Brel as the carrot in January. December “catch-up” mechanics then Brel in January. For a financial point of view, it covers both new and end of the fiscal year.
Late November - December events have to be huge, we are talking about multiple events, maybe 1430 or 1445 / New Class or even Yoz Jar. It has to show at the end of the fiscal year. Around late December for winter breaks, that covers 1-2 months worth of content all the way to the next QFR deadline which is March.
More likely have money from either holiday bonus or parents
More likely frivolous with their spending habit due to holiday vibes.
If we go by these metrics alone there is no doubt, that Lost Ark, December will be a BIG event. Which is pretty normal with all types of corporate or businesses. That is why a huge portion of sales happen even if they don’t observe Christmas or Black Friday. This is also relative to new T.V. Series, movies, product etc. They want that push to release these items of value to their target consumers.
In a corporate concept, however, the deadline for their Quarterly and Annual financial report is by December. I’d say that is a big push too especially for the big heads in charge. Pretty much they want to show off the money they make and entice more investor to chip in.
Hmmm, what? it is a timeline deadline December 30 is the deadline to create that report…
I give you an example: Argos March 2 Amazon’s 1st quarter QFR was on March 30th. Vykas June 30th Amazon’s 2nd Quarter QFR is on July 30th. Clown September ??? September 30th (probably not meeting the deadline if this continues).
Either November or the start of Winter Break which is around December 21st (?)
