This is really big - I will play on Ignite too I guess, can not be wrong! I really hope the Card Support will be at least LOS 18 or 24 + equivilant support cards.
I'm in a bit of a predicament here. I have a 1596 GL with a ton of mats from the recent events that I'm slowly pushing to become another main next to my destro. Should I just continue to slowly push him or create a GL on the ignite server to take his place?
Depends - do you really love gunlancer and want to get 1620 asap within the next 1-2 weeks but can’t do it with our current event? Then make one. If you can wait a bit, I’d suggest just creating another character on the ignite server because then you will eventually have 2 1620 boys
Thats kind of scary how big this is. They say we'll get to 1620 very fast then will be transfered to legacy servers after few weeks. But we need more precision. Im a returning player I have one 1620 and few deadbeats 1580-1600 chars. I have no idea If I should play on my main roster or go all-in in this ignite server. Is It only one character that will get to 1620 very fast or several of them? Coz that changes everything for me
you can get up to 6 up to 1620, then when you get to 1620 you can choose to transfer off ONE character OR transfer off ONE character AND ignite server's roster progress. if you already have 1620 + a few 1580s, you'd likely just take the free ONE 1620 transfer and no roster progress.
Question... im a returning player i have my account with 6 characters on one server if i remember... the question is if i create a character on the ignite server when i hit him to 1620 then if i like to transfer him to the original server do i have to delete 1 character right to make an space? also if i remember my lvl roster were 120 or 130 dont remember exactly.
I am almost 99.9% sure they will use the temporary storage thing like they did last time when we have a server merge. I doubt they will make you buy a character slot that's a scummy thing for them to do. Just comfortably make your ignite server character and transfer it over!
you'd transfer from ignite TO the legacy servers, not the other way around. only ONE ignite server character will be able to be transferred, and if your current roster is already full, it'll likely just be put into a character storage in the server you pick.
possible returning player here, after i trasnfer my character to regular server, wont i be struggling without alt army funneling mats into my main? Or was that system reworked?
Welcome back! Nope! That was never a thing. We got bamboozled by Koreans to make many alts. If all you want is to make one character, you can still progress very well
@@NoEditAndy You should do a video talking about this. Im also a returning player for the ignite servers and I also though alts are mandatory and always were. A lot of players will come back if the alt bs isnt actually needed to keep up with everyone
as cruiser said, make use of the ignite 6 characters and pick your favorite. maybe they'll do another one of these events in the future or just a standard powerpass+express that you can make others with after as well.
Do I need to buy a character slot to transfer 1 ignite character to my main roster acc? and also my second thoughts about this announcement, everything is really great! BUT! I can also see that they did not adress some of the issues such as SG gatekeep systems like LOS/KLC/Demon dmg overall cards and the most important roster exp boost! Because right now the image I can see is when the new player gets transffered to a normal servers, average (180+ roster) or veteran (250+ roster) players will insta gatekeep new players cuz u know how it is... And the cycle of a new players leaving the game will repeat again... And it will be really sad if this will happen again...
I would assume they would do that character inventory system that they used when they merged servers. Would be weird to have to buy a character slot imo. Let's hope ags isn't that stupid!
at this point most people gatekeep based on cards, elixir, trans and in T4 ark passive points. roster exp gets to be less of an issue since the later raids provides more roster exp per run so over time they will catch up to the currently average roster level.
Damn I dunno what to choose. I play bard / sorc / aero/ summ / artist /arcana already. Another supp would be ez but I remember people saying there were actually too many supps on jump start servers and they needed more DPS. 👨🍳 kiss
Nice, i really wanted to comeback to Lost Ark ! What would be the best stratgey for a returning player (that never went very far), should i make a new account or continue with my old one ? Thanks !
Welcome back to Lost Ark! Just bring the new ignite character to your roster! It will either be better than or equal to your current character so no loss!
if you manage to get further on your ignite server character/roster progression, then you can transfer the roster progress into whatever server you want. just be aware that doing the roster transfer will delete your current roster progress in the transfer target server.
Wait if we transfer a 1620 character over from Ignite servers, do we get all the transfer gifts or just the 1620 one? I wasn't aware it was all 3, thats huge
I want to ask can I send one character to this server from my roster and after seven weeks it returns to the main account or not Another question. If I make a new character in the server on the same account after seven weeks, can I add it to my account on the main roster or not
just make them all in ignite to around 1540 and try them all. i'd suggest the class based on class feel and the difficulty level you feel resonates with you.
@@atomhere That's a very fair take. I'll probably do Destroyer first since 3 of 4 I already have are melee, so it'll click quicker. Then I can try other 2 and see if there's a match.
rule of thumb, anything with a fire emblem is not transferred. You can buy skins and it will transfer. If they don't it was definitely a glitch and we can sue AGS (jk sponsor me instead)
Unfortunately I don’t think it’s automatic but they say they will give a ton of cards with a progression system for cards so let’s see what they cook uo
a nice touch but not really a W. This benefit veteran more than new player. Vet will have a cheap 1620 with 200k bound gold. New players will still gets gatekept due to no Los 30, low roster. This will repeat the same thing again as last year JS since none of fundamental issues got addressed. People are short sighted, they just like to have a free toon and some gold, but can not see further than that. Also for people who enjoy solo raid, there is also no new raid, which is meh.
I agree! But even new players can benefit from these rewards. They will definitely continue to cook up stuff and there was an interview that mentioned more solo modes soon so don’t worry
@@NoEditAndywell i hope so, but all of the additional solo are just info from the West. I dont recall the last stream from KR really mentioned it . What they need is release solo raid faster, make normal mode easier and can be matchmake and reduce thess RNG system. You can not sell a game design for 0.5% KR whale for long, this is not going to work here in the West.
yeah hopefully they add more solo raids soon and give new players more cards and faster ways to catch up if they choose to, however gotta admit the event is nice.
Wait, will they give enough mats to boost 6 characters to 1620? If they do, I am thinking to create a new account😮( I only have 3 1620 without trans and elixir in recent server)
If I can transfer a 1620 character from my current roster to the ignite sever, get the rewards, then transfer him back to my current roster, it's goat move from AGS. Sounds almost too good to be true 😂.
I mean to be fair, it doesn't take much to get to 1620 in ignite server in the first place so you should just quickly make a character and transfer. Yes it will take 1% more work, but it's still a good deal!
meh, should have included echidna prog. Players do thea prog on ignite, sneak into behemoth when trasfering to t4 on legacy but wont be able to do echidna. Leaving only buying bus to finish advanced honing
a lot of alts dont have advanced honing done. I think normal echidna would be way too easy with the supposed new hyper awakening release early (maybe another video for that) and the insane item level advantage!
well i fail to understand the jump start servers, and how to realy play the game.... i hope this one is a better system with less messy UI and clear info
unfortunately it likely will not be since SG is the one that makes and adjust the UIs. i'd suggest making a reddit post for any questions you have once ignite server is released.
Answered similar comment but I would assume it's the character inventory they used when we merged servers. Would be weird to have to buy a character slot!
if anything like prior merges it'll just sit in character storage and you can move characters in and out of that (just be careful about gold earners - don't wanna move them into storage before you earn)
As a returning player... that sounds quite awful. I mean great for people that only want to do endgame, but many people simply dont want to skip 95% of everything the game has to offer. I just logged in yesterday the first time after two years and did the mistake to use the powerpass on one of my characters. I got a load of achievements out of nowhere, was suddenly on an island that i never saw before, got a bunch of items that i had no clue of what they were again and what to do with them and got spammed with all kinds of events and especially with boatloads of rewards, that made me feel like half of the time that i invested back then was useless. Cant imagine how that must be for a new player. And the ignite servers dont seem to change anything about that. Its weird to me how this game seems to try everything to devalue its own content and just push everyone into the endgame as fast as possible. Not sure how they think that this sledgehammer-method of doing that is the right way and will make more people stick with the game. And i dont have the slightest ounce of trust into AGS that the "guidance" will be able to compensate for the overload a new player is going to experience.
How is it awful if you still have the option to take it slow? You can just make a character on the normal servers and do the long quests XD ignite servers is literally to ignite your progression fast to 1620. Tons of people will love to try out the end game without needing to do the nitty gritty stuff. It's best case scenario for all!
@@monojhqm 1. Thanks for repeating the exact same thing that i said in my second sentence. Except that they are clearly advertising that to new players as well and those can not know if they want to skip everything and play the endgame with a fully equipped character. The Ignite servers might get easily mistaken as "Season Servers" that way and i hope they make the difference clear in the server-select. 2. Its not just that. Its pretty much the same with other rewards and events - the magnitude of stuff that you get by participating, creates an incentive for everyone. If it were just to help people with the onboarding, then it wouldnt need those massive rewards at all. Not to mention that a new player might get a very wrong idea of what the endgame will look like, AFTER they used the mats and Gold the game is giving them for basically free. The drop-of in progress-speed will be more than noticeable for them and will make many quit the game faster, than getting slowly used to it by progressing through the different stages of the game (even with the normal catch up boosts applied).
@@CallMeTeci unlike the progression system in BDO, the grind does not start from the beginning, but rather wherever the new ilvl benchmark is for the new powerpass+express event. as this game is designed with vertical progression with no resets, the only ways to get new players up to speed is either zero/low cost upgrades + options to do raids solo all the way up to 2-3 tiers behind the current endgame or simply giving that progress level to the players outright. sadly they chose the latter and are taking their sweet time on implementing the first way (i don't know why they are trying to squeeze new players), but what can we do :(
Ignite servers are for only players with already existing roster to make easy character to 1620, nothing will change there for new players and i even doubt there will be new players in the first place
IF a new player decides to start and play it is very very good for them. Yes it can also be a nice and free alt for other players but that does not mean that its not great for new ones.
I agree cards are a predatory system but with the introduction of los 24 and a lot more help with card giving, we are at a much better point than before. Also for gatekeeping, with the extreme boost in item level, a 1640 doing thaemine normal would be accepted even with los 18
5 Legendary selection card packs are just Balthorr, Zena, Delain Armen and Kharmine btw., not worth it for me to make a new character and deal with even more grind, no thanks.
How is this a win? Theyll reach 1620 then be forced to nolife or swipe to get roster/cards to not be gatekept on newer raids. There is no solo thaemine either so theyll be struggling to find thaemine then echidna parties
@@dlds12345 All Roster Lvl stat buffs combined are like 0.01% more damage. Demon damage already is neglected by alot of players anyway and they do fine. You get runes, free 5x3. Card sets heavily cucks you. They should have given people LOS18 free. (although that also sounds insane to say)
@@cruiser332 that does not sound insane at all card system started all the way from T2 anyways no reason to be so stingy on them anymore give all new players 18 or 24 LoS+LWC and add the remaining cards to merchants.
LOL IS LOST ARK SAVED? They did this shit before this is a better version of it. This will be the same over hyped with veteran players using it as a tool to get a extra character. They need to fix the game not make an "ignite" server. Fix the game stop with the cards stop. This 1620 ignite server needs to provide enhanced honing to 1660.
we don't know how many bound mats they will give so rule of thumb is: If a lot of bound mats, then advance hone before gear transfer No bound mats, then just gear transfer and farm t4 mats
its the time of year where I ask friends to come back to the game
YES BRING THEM ALL WOOOO!

They should definitely just remove cards. From the entire game.
I agree cards are a predatory system but with the introduction of los 24 and a lot more help with card giving, we are at a much better point than before. Also for gatekeeping, with the extreme boost in item level, a 1640 doing thaemine normal would be accepted even with los 18
5 Legendary selection card packs are just Balthorr, Zena, Delain Armen and Kharmine btw., not worth it for me to make a new character and deal with even more grind, no thanks.
you dont want the gold and engravings and such? It's okay, play how you want to play though!
@@NoEditAndy I was excited when KR streamers said there will be 5 selection packs but got jebaited 🤡
0:02 no
LMAO LOST ARK FOLLOWED MAPLESTORY BURNING SERVER CONCEPT
Hahaha yep exactly XD
How is this a win? Theyll reach 1620 then be forced to nolife or swipe to get roster/cards to not be gatekept on newer raids. There is no solo thaemine either so theyll be struggling to find thaemine then echidna parties
we will genuinely have to see but i'm going to be honest. If you are 1640 (which is free), gatekeeping SHOULD be less for Thaemine and Echidna.
This all sounds great! I quit
You quit being a doomer correct?
It's still no use for new player bc even if they had ilevel catch up to vet, they still left behind by horizontal progression.
horizontal progression? Like what exactly?
@@NoEditAndyi think he refers stuff like demond dmg, roster lvl and stuff like that
@@dlds12345 All Roster Lvl stat buffs combined are like 0.01% more damage. Demon damage already is neglected by alot of players anyway and they do fine. You get runes, free 5x3. Card sets heavily cucks you. They should have given people LOS18 free. (although that also sounds insane to say)
@@dlds12345yep
@@cruiser332 that does not sound insane at all card system started all the way from T2 anyways no reason to be so stingy on them anymore give all new players 18 or 24 LoS+LWC and add the remaining cards to merchants.
T4 Gems
LOL IS LOST ARK SAVED? They did this shit before this is a better version of it. This will be the same over hyped with veteran players using it as a tool to get a extra character. They need to fix the game not make an "ignite" server. Fix the game stop with the cards stop. This 1620 ignite server needs to provide enhanced honing to 1660.
Is it better to advance hone the character 1620 from ignite server and then transfer to t4 or just do normal hone from 1640?
we don't know how many bound mats they will give so rule of thumb is:
If a lot of bound mats, then advance hone before gear transfer
No bound mats, then just gear transfer and farm t4 mats
