    To be honest, I kind of like it. It turns the game largely into an "arena" based game where you can play in short chunks of time and be ok. Or you can spend 4 hours farming materials on Islands, and progressing in other ways. Just did my first Guardian Raid, and while of course very simple, was...

    So if islands weren't a thing for materials, you'd hit 50, and sit in Vern spamming Chaos Dungeons, Abyssal raids, and Guardian raids just slogging your ilvl up into the next tier? Feels a little like WOD expansion for WoW where no one had to leave their Garrison ever. Edit: Minutes after...

    Ahh ok, looks like a lot of the Honing materials are not bound?

    So when you guys are doing things on Alts to funnel materials to your main are you just using stash storage? Or similar to Phoenix Plumes, is there a place where this stuff is kept?

    Sorry, skip Shushire, get to Vern, and just run the 250 ilvl Chaos Dungeons to get your 302 set. My buddy got to 380 and never went and did Shushire ever.

    I didn't realize you could skip to Vern, so just plowed through into Shushire and finished all that to get my 302 set. All the extra materials from the sidequests and stuff didn't hurt either as I boosted that 302 set straight to 380 before running the first ones.

    Did my first Chaos Dungeon tonight, and that was fun. Kept getting MVP but I think Berserker's have it easy. Class is like made for these AOE dungeons. Used Powerpass on my Sharpshooter, and did all the stuff to get them in Vern at 302. So I'll start farming that stuff as well I guess.

    You’ll get high enough ilvl to get into tier 2 where you will get a new set of gear. This is where you’ll transfer your “hones” from your 302 gear to your new set of gear and start the process all over again of getting it to +15. You on us west? Funny some of you are like aww I’m slow as fuck...

    After reading all the back and forth, I think you missed something even with all the guides that were posted. So you have the initial gear that you said you upgraded to 340. That gear isn't going to get upgrades via straight drops from other content. Like you're not going to find 340+ ilvl gear...

    Gated is kinda the point though, right? The entire main point of the game, collecting gear, isn't gated, you can grind that shit all day. The rest of it is gated where you can only do so much of it at a time. It's odd to be frustrated about all the gating, but the main point of the game...

    As soon as you go into a channel, you can click on your profile icon in the top right of the screen, and it'll show your Drop "progress". Easy way to see if the stream is helping you out or not.

    Does it show the damage percent for everyone? How long until we get log readers for DPS meters? NEED IT.

    I feel like I'm big dumb or something, because I'm following all my quests, and the main story quests have got me to unlock Shushire, and I've unlocked my Awakening skill as a Warrior, but where does it take me to the gear upgrades? I think Google is gonna help, and maybe one of those videos...

    For someone like me that never really likes any story, not even in FFXIV, I like how you can catch the basic gist of the story by just listening to the parts they voice act. Skip all the details in the dialogue.

    Amazing, so I can power boost a Sharpshooter, and not feel like I missed out on anything!! This game is bad ass!

    So after Raes and Xexx went back and forth, Power pass boosted characters are the same as the ones you went through the whole MQ? I started Berserker and hit 50 this weekend, and about to hit North Vern, but I think I'll like a Sharpshooter way better, but other than my pre-order rewards which I...

    There's a Preferences tab inside the Combat Skills window that I was curious if it was actually useful? My first thought was that it could be a user up-voted system where builds for different things get posted and up-voted. There's another gacha game that does that. Summoner's War does it for...

    Horizon 2: Forbidden West

    So as developers go they were not pants on head, and actually kept shit that worked in the first one, if not all of it, and just made small tweaks to make it better. This is a good thing, and not every game needs some new try-hard thing that actually just sucks to be great. Good on them!

    I got used to it in Lost Ark and if I stop playing it won't be due to the controls. They are for sure jarring at first though and if you don't push through for at least a few more hours, you'll be missing out. As for WoW though, git gud if you didn't create Alt+key or Shift+key, or Ctrl+key...

    Awesome stuff!! I'm playing Lost Ark until Forbidden West comes out. Goooooddd times! The best part of Farcry games is the hilarious moments that can happen on coop. We should try it out sometimes @Rajaah!

    Can you add friends cross server? I'm US West, but on Akkan, and so we can do shit together, other than be in the same guild.

    You find a guild? Considering just closing up the FOH guild so we can join a guild that has the rewards coming in.

    I think it's a mistake to make the default chat include Area chat. Guild chat, whispers, and anything else just get buried and I miss them constantly.

    @Kirun You say Paladin or Bard for support? Given I'm already a 'Zerker I was thinking Bard to be a different archetype, but if the Paladin community is balls, maybe I should go in and can hide behind all the shitters!

    So I'm taking the route of doing every quest. I just like clearing out shit, but I hear this is going to have me hit 50 way before the "main" quest line is finished. Does the quest experience just change into silver or some other currency? Or do I finish off the main quest and literally get nothing?

    For movement, it feels WAY better, imo. However the different button combos, etc just feel way off. :( Just as I did with my keybindings, if I went and customized some things on the controller it'd probably do way better.

    Son got name "Awesomegamer" haha He picked Martial Artist, and so far is having fun beating up bad guys. He's 8! So the US West FoH hasn't had anyone try to join and if so few people are going to play on the West, maybe it's best we shut it down and try and join a more active guild?

    Good point. I need to quit being greedy when fighting a boss and just land a skill, back away, etc. I'm gonna pick a Ranged class for sure as one of my Power-ups when I hit level 50 on the Berserker I think.

    Stuck it out, and as I got to learn some of my abilities, and got more used to the controls it has worked out really well. Realized there are only a few abilities that you end up using and it can fit between 1-6 basically. Easy peasy. So now that I'm slowing down a bit, is there a class that...

    Lost Ark Online

    Absolutely correct. I have a lot of friends playing this game so I'll probably stick it out because any game is better with friends, but it's super difficult for me now. If I stick it out though, there is a good chance I'll get into the rhythm and start to like it. If I create a new character I...
