I use this all the time when I'm gathering mushrooms or dreamflowers for battle items. When your gathering tool has low durability you can just teleport to your stronghold, craft your battle items and repair your tools. Then you can just use song of escape and directly get back to farming.
@@justinchancellorlegod8057 if you have aura, you also can repair your tools and gear everywhere you want. Just open up pet selection and there you can find pet functions. Open up remote storage and you will see a menu where u can repair tools gear. No need to go to the stronghold
Dispatching pet doesn't mean it'll unsummon/can't be summoned. Spendy cat can be two places at once! Song of escape also returns you to your last non-stronghold location.
Lost ark could really benefit from a companion app on your phone where you can handle this type of stuff. Then when your online you can just play the fun stuff.
ignore being level 50 until you have every world quest available, completed. the game doesn't tell you how many of those open new doors to the real end game content. im ilvl 460 and still can't do the cube because I can't find the prerequisite quests. so just focus on those and it'll save you so so so so so many headaches later on.
So I watched the whole thing and gave a like but tbh I didn’t find this to be useful. Most of this is pretty easy to understand if you read in game. What I wish I could find are actual in-depth guides to the stronghold. A few fifteen minute videos going in depth into worthwhile researches for the labs, or a breakdown of how to get the better missions/best ships for the dispatch, worthwhile crafts for the crafting section etc. I still have no idea what the facility points I can unlock do for example. Every written “guide” is just the basic how to unlock stuff which is useless because it happens in the MSQ. All of the videos mostly just explain the easy to understand stuff. Anyway, I like your videos, keep it up. Just venting that I wish these stronghold videos would actually provide some guidance on best practices.
Yeah... I watched the entire video to see if they explain why you should do it or what's the benefit of doing it but everyone just explains the basics lol
am i the only one that uses crafting to get stronghold xp? U say in your video its not practical but i feel thats only true for the gold cost items. When i craft urr's tree bench for example (blueprint obtainable from merchant) it costs 3000 silver and 576 action energy (5 iron and 5 wood but thats negligible) in 1h and you get 1152 stronghold xp. I feel thats a pretty good deal since i heard you can get silver easily through daily quests etc. later on. So its essentially a conversion ratio of 3 silver to 1 stronghold xp and a good way to use your action energy not letting it go to waste.
100% the awning, dyroka water wheel and nac-1 counter are 3 good structures to boost your xp all 3 purchased from the merchant in your stronghold targo so keep an eye out for them as they aren't always in his inventory
OMg yess thank you this is awesome and exactly what I needed!!! The last super daunting system imo outside of what you've already covered is the Market/Auction House. Looks wayy more advanced than what I'm used to in NW so have been avoiding it lol
The only missions my crew can do are all 2 hrs long, so I can't maximize the longer missions when I am asleep and/or at work. Why do I not have the longer missions available???
After slowly taking my time and maybe almost 2 months later I decided to work on my stronghold. I know it's sad and I'm lvl 1350. Thank you for this guide.
I watched the whole video started playing one the officially launched day for NA. I am trying to do all the research so when my friends play I can link them the information.
@@VideoGameDataBank oh yeah I just seen that last night haha 🤣 I’m just impatient, thanks for the reply tho bro! I’m about to look at your card one cause I’m so confused
Hey, how do I get a higher cube roll on the Station? I got up to Platinum chest for T2 cube, but only go to Silver at T3, is this bounded to ilvl or stronghold lvl?
i researched everything but my dispatch only has 2hrs ones, and i don't know what to do anymore besides craft potions the other research things need like 3k pirate coins but i only get like 9 coins a day lmao
@@No-Kung-Fu im 50 as well, and i found a reload missions button (I'm at work now so I don't remember exactly what it said) but clicking that one made the new missions popup
Thanks for the guide! About half way through and it's already shown me a lot! I have a question.. Would you say start Strongholds immediately after access to it or wait till you're done with the main story first?
I'm currently at Stronghold level 13. I'm STILL at Lab level 2. I have no idea when the other Lab levels happen. But I am confirming for you that it isn't Stronghold level 10, where we would get that upgrade.
There's a dropdown on the lab screen that lets you stop filtering our research you can't yet do. It shows you what the pre-requisites are for that research.
I have my dispatch on level 2 but i don't get any better mission from it only the same as level 1, is it bugged or something ? Edit : If you press refresh on the mission tab it says something about needing to be level 50 with the roster, maybe that's why we don't get the level 2 missions
I have a stronghold quest to complete a special mission but I never have any available? How do I unlock special missions? I just hit 50 and I'm ilvl ~240 if that means anything
I think there is a huge misconseption in this video. You probably want to start it with a question WHY, instead of time-management on, which research to start at which time Why do i need a Stronghold? Why do i need these Labs research? Why would i craft battle items, if i already have ones? UPD: video with such a length could use some timestamps too
my stronghold is stuck at lvl 24, i have already done all the lab research, i still need 18k xp to get to lvl 25 and unlock the others research labs, but now i have no idea how to make it level up, can you help me pls? any tips
I dont understand what some of these do. I just completed [small island] facilities points +15" but it didnt do anything. I thought it was placement amount but the number didnt change.
Tipp: To leave the stronghold, you don't actually have to tp, you can also just use the song of escape if you want to go back to where you came from
I was wondering. Ty!

Both things i wanted to say !

Video format was on point! Not too long or short and touched everything. Its always the last video you find that does the job lol
When he chose to keep the cat over the bunny even against min/maxing I felt that in my heart
Would be nice to see a "Fresh Level 50 Guide" (What to do and so on) . I know there are some out there but you explain it the best
ignore being level 50 until you have every world quest available, completed. the game doesn't tell you how many of those open new doors to the real end game content. im ilvl 460 and still can't do the cube because I can't find the prerequisite quests. so just focus on those and it'll save you so so so so so many headaches later on.
@@michaelmunson6809 Yes thats true ive been Grinding a lot and GS 593. Until you do Chaos and so on every day youre fine
@@michaelmunson6809 you get the quest when the ticket randomly drops from a chaos dungeon. You dont even need to complete the rohendel quest line
Maxroll GG's guide really saves a lot of time.
@26:55 you can also play ther same song used to leave dungeons and you'll be back at the same exact point you entered the stronghold

It's not that in depth of a system and still is self explanatory later on.
Yeah... I watched the entire video to see if they explain why you should do it or what's the benefit of doing it but everyone just explains the basics lol
He gets some stuff wrong, too. Deploying a pet on a mission doesn't mean you lose it ingame...
The song used for escaping dungeons etc can also be used in the stronghold to return to the exact position you left originally.
song of escape works to leave as well. thanks for the vid!

I'm at stronghold 19 and I have to craft about 40k worth of exp for level 20. So this is very helpful thanks.
Lmao an emotional connection to the cat? I almost spilled my coffee man 😆

the most surprising thing to me was when the welcoming song was London bridge is falling down interesting song choice
I can explain how it works in 6 words. It works like a mobile game.
No but seriously, nice guide.
I think i first saw this type of thing in WoW tbh
I understood everything the first time around, just wanted to make sure. Great video, thanks
At 11:40 this is dumb don't do this. Sending a pet on a mission doesn't mean you can't use it.
The only missions my crew can do are all 2 hrs long, so I can't maximize the longer missions when I am asleep and/or at work. Why do I not have the longer missions available???
For a _ultimate_ guide I'd have hoped to see where to get the best crew members etc.
The video doesn't even talk about training grounds or pet training, ultimate click bait indeed
best explanation i have watched thank u!!
Such a good explanation. Keep up the great work glad your on lost ark now
After slowly taking my time and maybe almost 2 months later I decided to work on my stronghold. I know it's sad and I'm lvl 1350. Thank you for this guide.
you can use "song of escape" to leave as well. You can even use "song of escape" to leave islands (takes you to your ship).. huge time saver
I watched the whole video started playing one the officially launched day for NA. I am trying to do all the research so when my friends play I can link them the information.
Great video. I fully understand everything now!
Thanks for this.. it helped a TON...
so how to unlock the second slot in trainingscamp? It says i need to research training camp but i dont see them in my laboratory to research.
So I need help I can't repair my boat at the strong hold how do get items with the green house at the bottom
btw the fastest way to get out of the stronghold is using the song of scape and going to the place you left
I upgraded the stable at lvl 2 at the lab but it doesn't let me send two ships (i already built 3 of them). Someone can explain y?
can you make a video on how to upgrade to level 3 lab
Dude you are working your ass off atm, love the vids but take care of yourself :)
You can also play your Song of Escape to leave the Stronghold and return to where ever you were previously.
THX for you time . Great Video rll helpfull :)
hey man, how do i get more ships so i can send out for missions

Hey, how do I get a higher cube roll on the Station? I got up to Platinum chest for T2 cube, but only go to Silver at T3, is this bounded to ilvl or stronghold lvl?
Song of Escape is a free way to get back to wherever you were when in your stronghold, no need to pay for a tripod port
how do u view all the stronghold quests? they dont show
i researched everything but my dispatch only has 2hrs ones, and i don't know what to do anymore besides craft potions the other research things need like 3k pirate coins but i only get like 9 coins a day lmao

I have a question.. Would you say start Strongholds immediately after access to it or wait till you're done with the main story first?
is completing the Rum mission for the 3rd slot worth the 4000 pirate coins?
You can also leave your stronghold via the exit on the dock behind the manor. It will put you back to wherever you were at .
thanks man for making these videos so i can actually fucking understand this game
I'm currently at Stronghold level 13. I'm STILL at Lab level 2. I have no idea when the other Lab levels happen. But I am confirming for you that it isn't Stronghold level 10, where we would get that upgrade.
its stronghold lvl 15
There's a dropdown on the lab screen that lets you stop filtering our research you can't yet do. It shows you what the pre-requisites are for that research.
How do you get to craft workshop level 2? So confused
So much to learn in this game:) Thx for the guide
blew right over outfit in themanor.. & thats what im trying to find out about...
Hi,
Am I understand you correct - To gain lvl 3 Lab, I need for that lvl 10 Stronghold ?
Thank you
how do i put my own characters in my sh?
Is the one for 'Build Estoque" going to build you another Estoque ship, or is that for the blueprints to upgrade levels for the ship?
Thats for your dispatch crews to use.
I have my dispatch on level 2 but i don't get any better mission from it only the same as level 1, is it bugged or something ?
Edit : If you press refresh on the mission tab it says something about needing to be level 50 with the roster, maybe that's why we don't get the level 2 missions
Great vid, what do character and facility points do?
why does i only have station mission that take 2 hours. ?
lol i do the same thing always send bunny as my cat is to precious to go on some boat alone
song of escape will take u back to the exact spot u were before fyi
How do I unlock the "Special" tab? Lab is lvl 3 but special tab is empty...
Best guide so far. Thanks!
Where do you get those crafting materials that look like tools to craft battle items (not talking about normal ore, wood, flowers)

bought a outfit for a npc but doesnt show them wearing it what am i suppose to do?
Thanks man ! Helped a lot
I have a stronghold quest to complete a special mission but I never have any available? How do I unlock special missions? I just hit 50 and I'm ilvl ~240 if that means anything
Have to level your stronghold to around level 10-12 before they become available.
Thanks so much for the precise video! Very helpful!
Ty so wonderful.
timestamps plz
Great video, but nothing about stronghold effects and how we increase them. It says ''up to 30%'', but i'm still at 1%.
wait how the hell did you get huge missions like that in the ship all mine are the 2 hour white ones and still dont have any special missions
Thank you... this really Helps.
how to make workshop level 2 ?
I think there is a huge misconseption in this video.
You probably want to start it with a question WHY, instead of time-management on, which research to start at which time

Why do i need these Labs research?

Great guide. Thanks!!!
I dont understand what some of these do. I just completed [small island] facilities points +15" but it didnt do anything. I thought it was placement amount but the number didnt change.
i think that unlocks the quest at adeline the butler in front of the manor, and the quest gives you the area afterwards, i.e. farm or cave.
How do you prevent people from harvesting things from your stronghold?
Named my stronghold Chore. Seems fitting.
