Unable to acquire T3 pants after 3 runs of Chaos Dungeon

Pretty big surprise to see the T3 stuff non tradeable.
How is that a good idea to lock people out of T3 just because of a terrible luck in chaos dungeon ?

Welcome to why a timegating + RNG is just terrible unfriendly design. I went 500 dry on a a 50% drop rate before, there will be people that just have bad luck, there will be people who have to spend several weeks getting their T3 gear because of bad RNG. There will be quite a few people that end up quitting the game purely because they got shafted by reasons beyond their control.

I had the same issue for awhile and for whatever reason the missing item I needed was never missing. It kept going to my pets inventory. Check your pets inventory that’s how I got my last piece, no clue how long my pet had that last piece on him.

Stuck on my fourth day, because i have no pants and 5+ of every other part.

This is retarded, i cant do anything on my main besides the 2 chaos runs.

We need a soluction, and the only way to make that happend is share our disagreement, here we have some kind of racism to NA/SA servers making the game harder and more rng with the only reason to improve the monetary ganancy of amazon, more t3 players, more gold they farm, less crystal are buy, to me make sense. So i encourage all who read this post replay and make this a real preocupation for the developers.

I just want to continue the discussion in hopes that someone from Smilegate/Amazon will respond. I went to T3 today, and I used one chaos dungeon run in order to get 1100 item level. Because of this I didn’t have two attempts to get 1302 gear (though I could have had bad rng too even if I did).

The issue I have isn’t just that I can’t get my full set. The issue is the content of Unas tasks, guardian raids, abyss dungeon, guild/ship/chaos vendors all require 1302 item level to access, so I’m forced to not play the dailies until I pass the rng check. This is clearly something not thought through completely.

After doing my chaos dungeon I wanted to do Unas tasks, but since I’m not 1302, I would still only receive bound tier 2 items that wouldn’t help my character whatsoever. It feels terrible because these are dailies we should do every day to not miss out of items, but we get punished because of our luck. It’s like I can’t play the game because of the restriction.

At first I was just a little sad and thought it was my fault that I didn’t have two chaos dungeon runs available for today, but tomorrow it’s possible I have terrible luck and don’t receive my full set. Then I would be punished again and couldn’t play the game - all for something completely out of my control.

It’s crazy to me that this thread hasn’t been addressed properly even with so many complaints

Came back after 2 weeks to check on this in hope a CM responded. Unfortunately as expected more people are experiencing this annoyance. Still no feedback on why 1302 isn’t tradeable in the marketplace.

To anyone still trying to defend with the notion that this isn’t an issue: ā€œit’s only a few days/ it’s not a problem/ just waitā€ Do you not see how many people visited the forums and commented on this? I mean come on now, this is an issue that makes no sense on why it’s implemented in the first place.

Just adding a +1 here, not that it will do anything. Half my guild had this issue, myself included. It is just an absolutely terrible player experience and I can’t imagine smilegate wants that for players.

Same here no gloves and chest pice …they dont drop …

It is a pretty severe oversight from the developers, I did get lucky and get the hidden level on my first run yielding me duplicates of all pieces, but otherwise I could had very well have ended locked out of tier 3 content for nights.

Well, first of all, welcome onboard the forums for Lost Ark.

I do read again and again, that there is some kind of ā€œguaranteeā€ you will get 1302 on hitting ilvl 1100. Yet I cannot find any gaming news sites on this nor any announcements stating so. So it is rng. It’s a painful rng, but it is what it is and we all go through it. I didn’t get a full 1302 the first day - and yes as much as it may seem frustrating in the una’s task, you are not limited to run those that give you mats for upgrades. You might as well do Lopang in order to get silver (which you will need in T3) or progress on one of the ships or maybe even a masterpiece, which can pay off pretty nicely.

Don’t worry about it, after you hit 1302 the ā€œwaiting for upgradesā€ doesn’t get any faster. It’s the exact opposite. You might get up to +5 in a relatively short time, but the drop off in percentages at +10 are pretty harsh to say the least. It’s build for playing a longer time. Not rush through the content and feel like there’s nothing to gain anymore. And If luck doesn’t do you any good - try meto or the anguished isle.

I can only try to lift your spirit a bit in saying, we all went through it. And you will too.

It should take a week at minimum to collect the entire set. Those asking for it in 2 runs need some reality stew.

Sadly, same thing happening here. Was hoping to buy some T3 mats before weekly reset, and now I’m stuck.

What is worst: all dailies give me T2 BOUND materials. I can’t even send the mats to an alt.

This is horrible.

This is one of the worst experiences I’ve had in a game. I get that t3 content lasts for a long time and all that, and that I can just play an alt, but it still feels horrible being locked out of playing with your main character for no good reason, even farming mokokos (something that I usually enjoy) feels crappy right now, along with any other activity in the game.

So one week of only running chaos dungeons hoping you can unlock the other content even though you’ve farmed and saved mats? What.

Do you expect people to just run T2 content until then?

Everything you don’t need on T2 you can sell in the AH. Make profits out of your misery. You will feel really good when you have all T3 scrapped together. It’s RNG. If this mechanic frustrates you, you should really consider wether or not you want to participate in T3 at all.

this is the first stupid mechanic i have found in this game. It makes no fking sense to hold players like this
Put the fking items for sale

Wow this is the most stupid gating I saw in this game. Infuriating!

This is the DUMBEST ******* mechanic in ANY GAME that ever existed. Seriously, fix your stuff Smilegate. KR Version do NOT has this issue of T3 not being tradable. This is WRONG on so many levels.
