the right time was when the bots was farming the bridge, or you can wait to price normalize like KR
that wont happen, it a one and done purchase the drop will be endless but the playerbase isnt
even that isn’t too expensive because you can do the +3+3 on a legendary accessory and fill both class and grudge
and also grudge anyone can drop
the real value in accessories usually comes from class accessories
and if you get a good stone you can get by with a legendary 100quality ring which is like -2% dmg which you can stomach as the alternative tends towards 100k
u can do all content with 4 x 3 or if u like 4 x 3 + 1 x 2,just wait for price drops u dont need 5 x 3 or something right now,just try to gem high lvl gems,gems are the most important dps boost in this game and quality weapon 75+
It’s no longer about what you require to complete content, but what you require to be invited into a party to run the content with.
My 4x3+1 1460 DB along with the knowledge from clearing Valtan/Vykas a billion times already would have absolutely no issue within your party to complete both raids. However, I don’t even try with PF anymore and opt to hitch a ride with friends making a party for this character, because it is going to be passed over every time for the multitude of better setup characters looking.
Why take my 1460 when there is a dozen 1500+ in the list, it’s just simple sense.
Now if I decide to knock out a few runs via PF on any of my 4 1520+ characters, I just pick my party and get accepted.
It’s just the nature of the game, old content might be old content, but since everyone still has to run it every week it’s never old content.
I’ve said this since Argos, the hardest part of Lost Ark is not the bosses, but actually getting to the bosses, be it honing, gatekeeping or whatever.
Thank you all for your answers guys, it gave me a good insight into what to do. I have 4 classes I will play definitely so it would not hurt me to buy their own books, at the end I will play them all till the end, and with that, I will be getting them to 5x3, it will be a one-time upgrade and will stay with me forever, so it will be just fine!
5x3+1 can be done with a 77 rock and some relic and ancient mix and will most likely be the min req when akkan drops given gatekeeping
but also not every class uses adren my tai scrapper can only fit in adren 1 any more and im over stacking crit, same with my control glaive, hence why i stated what i stated.
getting adren wont ruin you but in the long term might force yo to buy other books down the line, hence the recommendation to save you gold in the long run.
with frog event i seen 1 time on EUC 16.7k lowers
Right answer is to just buy it lol. You’ll never catch the right timing and would be better to just buy some here and there.
I don’t think we are at peak price yet, but we are getting close.
Or use other engraving that your other dps can use
I have keen blunt x 12 and ambush master x 12
I dont even have grudge purple books
And im perfectly happy with that
This is a good point you clearly understand items in-game.
If you look at Lost Ark
We are on average pricing except for Class Engravings if you are looking at previous prices… since Hyper Express = Class Engraving will be up until February.
Unless AGS intervened of course.
Even on EUW is same difficult when it’s right time.
After Frog many books have still reasonable prices, but one week after Brel release the prices of books went spikes everywhere (Perhaps because of RMT’er joined the game for playing Brel.)
After the ban wave, the prices started to get down slowly.
grudge books stayed at 18k in EUC even with the frog.
sadly the best moment to buy grudge book is when the frog still exist
The problem with EUC is that there are not that many players on your server.
So less interaction with the frog = less supply = higher pricing.
The best time to get Grudge was when towers were… abused by bots.
Wouldn’t fully fix the gatekeeping. My 5x3 with full relic gets gatekept all the time our of Vykas HM and sometimes Valtan HM cause of solely my ilvl which is 1460 on that alt
I don’t think 5x3+1 will ever be a gatekeeping moment, at least it will only be like that for either akkan or higher raids, and perhaps Breshalza hard, the rest people will just not care as long as you have 5x3
its as if you didnt read my message at all.
“the mim req when akkan drops given gatekeeping”
didnt even mention brel, how can it be a gatekeep for brel when u need to clear brel to even think of building it.
