Hey, can you tell me where i can get the horns from Brelshaza? I want to create a sorceress char wich look like her. Are the brelshaza horns only available in korea at the moment? And is the Brelshaza pet korea exclusive too?
Well i paid about 1,5-2k on eu for ambush master and cursed doll 3(which is btw really cheap in Most cases) and surge 1. Since surge is Most likely Used on LV 1 i am completely fine With that Setup and Most likely mvp. The Most hurting stuff is using pheons instead of the gold.
Uhh the event going on right now gives you 4 legendary class books and 4 legendary general books per week so if the event lasts 5 weeks thats a free purple class engraving and a free purple general engraving of your choice.
well i hit 1340 just yesterday and have my class engraving and first engraving on purple. This is decent enough for most bosses, runs etc since you get 2 lv 3 super easy with that. the 3rd one is a little tricky since you have to get a really good stone/accesory combination wich isnt worth the price in my opinion
Does paladin and bard need grudge too? Since you mentioned that every class uses grudge. But I feel like paladin and bard's role in a raid doesn't really do dps so I was wondering what should we get after expert + awakening and class engraving
I am kinda stuck right now. I am running Grudge/Hit/Death Strike (class) for my engravings but if I take the advice of the video, and run x16 death strike, I can't affort hit/grudge accs way too expensive, and if I end up running x9Grudge x9 Death strike,, finding Deathstrike on accs to fill the gap is very difficult
As always, fantastic video, on the side, i've never seen someone talk about NEGATIVE engravings, is it worth having like a 2 3's with some lvl 1 negatives? if so, which ones are the "best" to have or those you dont really care about, like 2% less MS/AS doesnt seem like a lot compared to the chance of having one more lvl 3 engraving, what are your thoughts on that?
I built all my characters with only 2 engravs at lvl 3, for now its doing the job, im investing on purpple engravs like cursed doll, that everyone uses and adrenaline and since we are having this event im also getting some class engravs for the classes that need more like my sorc and my force infighter
As a gunslinger, once I hit the lategame does it matter if I invest in Keen Blunt / Grudge vs Keen Blunt / Cursed Doll or Grudge / Cursed Doll etc.. ? I guess it's only a question of what my alts will be right and maybe market prices.
It also depends on what you go for. If you think outside the box in builds and engravings and don’t always go for the strict meta, you can save a lot of money.
I wish these things were more accessible, people can swing some things on their mains but you see a lot of folks just giving up and winging it with whatever. It holds everyone else back in game, and I don't blame those people for it either, they just can't make it happen.
Will there be more sources of legendary books in the future? Like now we have a welcome challenge event that gives you 10 purples for hitting 1340 and another 10 purples for clearing T3 boss rush. And also there is a racing event that sells purple selection packs that you can buyout weekly.
One of my biggest recommendation for player that's going to transition into Scouter, buy legendary engraving for barricade, it's dirt cheap now and will be second most expensive book (after grudge) once Scouter/Arcana get introduced.
My suggestion is to not fall so hard lined into the meta (especially early Grudge, you don't fokin need Grudge until way later. Stop using it and making you life harder and group more painful for no reason. There are better options with our limited access to engravings). There is a secondary engraving for basically everything at this point. Basically a cheap and expensive option. An good example I was discussing with someone is Crisis Evasion compared to Emergency Rescue. They essentially serve the same purpose but for different playstyles. One is normally more expensive than the other. So focus on whatever is cheaper if you want it
Thank you for the video! I’ll stick with build up to 1415 for now. What would you recommend for blue gunlancers in terms of engravings? Combat readiness only needing to stay at level 1 makes it hard to have 3 3 and then 1 for barricade. Any suggestions on how to spread it out if I can’t buy legendary grudge/barricade books yet?
The reality is that a whale can get 20 leg book within a day by swiping and f2p probably has to work for weeks or months potentially. Just sucks but part of the game i guess.

how much are the legendary grudge books cost in KR right now? just wanna see how much it can potentially drop on NA EU server
Did they realy nerf the wealth rune on shout of hatred id does not work anymore or is this a bug ?
Man must be super hardcore to find enjoyment in having the same class as your alt. Really efficient though.

Did you happen to take down your engravings page on lostarklife? Had it bookmarked but it only goes to the wealth rune trader guide now.
Adrenaline is like s tier at t1 t2. Its so cheap and useful.

Thanks as always for the great content!
man there's no dps meter in this game, just run scuffed not maxed out engravings and leech loot
ATK when will your lostarklife be back? It's really useful 😀
so grudge will stay around 18k-20k for ever :o?

yo what is that last scene xD
I feel like the literal choke point for gearing is that stone. Because other isn't rng but that stone is RNG
