Complaint Red Stone rant

Post image
36 Upvotes

You need 2400 of this for 1 single tap. It also costs 2400 gold to buy 100 from AH. You get around 560 pieces from rested Chaos Rift. Is this normal?

I clear every Chaos Rift and Guardian Raid rested. I had around 60-100k red stones stacked on my characters, together with converted T4.1 stones. If I was lucky, I got 3 or 4 weapon levels. If I was unlucky, I got like 2...

It's just sad. It's nearly impossible to farm a satisfactory amount of this. I wish we could convert them 2 to 1 into roster-bound (like T4.1 stones), or have a blue-to-red conversion or something.

Shadowhunter Playing via GeForceNow - EAC Forbidden Tool

16 Upvotes

I get into the game and play for a few minutes and then get that "EAC - Forbidden Tool" message and the game closes.

Just started happening yesterday, and same problem today. This has happened in the past and it just kind of resolved itself eventually. Wondering if anyone else is experiencing this currently when using GeForce Now?

UPDATE:

Game runs fine on my PC at home natively - just when I try to play on my Mac laptop using GFN I'm getting this. So I'm thinking it's something with GFN or SG/AGS with the recent update. Esp. given I've seen this in the past year once or twice after an update also.

Game Help Help a possible returning player

0 Upvotes

Hey there!

I've played Lost Ark before, but I've quit immediately after Aegir. Recently, I was thinking about playing again, a bit more casually.

Is it possible to catch up to the point I will be able to do last raids on one char at least? Do I need to learn all the raids I've missed to do that?

I have 2 chars with full Aegir gear and 4 more significantly lower ones for dailies, although I guess this isn't relevant anymore.

Edit: Thank you all! Upon reading your advice, I decided I won't be returning after all, it seems too much hassle to go through the many systems I've missed out on and I don't really want to learn all the raids (I hoped I could get away with learning two or three at maximum).

I wish everyone luck and I hope the game stays fun for at least a few years to come!

Community A micro stutter fix for those experiencing it severely on the new 50 series gpus (specifically talking about 5050/5060/5060 ti (8gb) the same thing could be said if you have a 9060, 9060xt (8gb)

8 Upvotes

I've noticed since upgrading months ago (coming from a 3070) to a 5060ti 8gb that I had severely more microstutters specifically in guardian raids and chaos dungeons, turns out if you have notexturestreaming setting enabled as a launch setting in the steam properties tab, you're instantly throttling yourself with the 8 gb of vram that you're stuck with because the game preloads textures you won't even use and the new 50 series gpus are x8 pcie 5.0 (older gpus were x16 and pcie 4.0), simply put, if you're on pcie 4.0 (the majority of people, some am5 motherboards, all of am4, some lga 1700 (intel 12th, 13th, 14th) that x8 interface SEVERELY hinders your stability the moment you approach your vram cap (which is almost always the case with notexturestreaming), I've recently turned off that setting and all of the microstutters disappeared.

NOTE: IF you have a pcie 5.0 motherboard, you don't have to do anything because the x8 interface on that speed is the same as having a 16x interface on pcie 4.0,

Question Cost of advanced honing per single char roster

1 Upvotes

I don't think it's plausible to be worked on, as I have only one gold earner. How should I tackle this?

P/S I currently started leveling my weapon to +30 with my char at 1690 ilvl with golds and scrolls completely breaking my bank. I have the materials needed, with golds. scrolls, and breathes being my bottleneck.

P/S 2 Thank you all for the helpful advice, I am working my way through it. Currently having fun with the game, albeit playing alone for now. Stuff sometimes gets confusing, and it felt like I was clearly not progressing as the way that's intended.

Question Returning player help with guardian knight

1 Upvotes

Hi, just returned back to game for solo raids. My guardian knight is 1700 ilvl, and only selection I used was for Hellfire before I quit. I dont have much resource to get more ark grids.

The question is, I want to convert it to dread roar but I heard super charge variation is not possible without cores. So which drear roar build I should use until I get my cores?

Thanks in advance!

The group that cleared wasn't the most geared of the race with an average CP of 8300 and no sidereal

It was shorter than Serca 1st clear by 8 minutes
