I would say, whenever you hit a wall where you have basically done everything with your character on that day already and you feel like playing more, just make an alt.

[@sphong0610]

I agree that the point that you start playing your alts is when progress on your main gets to the point of diminishing returns in terms of gold and time. Even in Korea, I only have 4 characters that I actually play. I work and have family so I can only play like 5-7 hours a week. ofc I'm just a filthy casual and I've only spent like 100,000 won in 7 months now but I can still go do the legion raids with my main. I main Striker(raid), and alts are Blade(chaos dungeons and income stuff or sometimes raid), Demonic, and Lancemaster. I started with Berserker and Holyknight but scrapped them (not pley them except for the passive income stuff).

Ofc it is doable with 1 main but with slow pace. But telling u dont need alts to compete with hardcore players (what ever p2w or nolife)bullpoop.

sure u can play just 1 character but without alts and if you don't pay you will be at such slow progression you kinda never will catch up to other because new stuff will come out before u do so you are always behind.

[@Heavenblaire]

By having alts, you can enjoy and have fun playing other classes and at the same time, you can earn mats and other resources for adventurer’s tome esp silver which is really impt endgame. Once your alts are in the same tier or ilevel with your main, you can do all the dailies to help out your main for mats and vice versa. Your alts can do towers for honing mats but make sure to research the stronghold thing tho and abyss dungeons for engraving accessories! You dont need to spend real money or gold for your alts unless you want the best for your alts. One more thing, for alts you can do transfer knowledge anyways but you need gold for this one tho. I would suggest to transfer knowledge them for vern only then do all the main quest from there to feiton so you can earn silver and some rewards. This is also a fun way to learn other classes’ skills esp if you are into PvP. This is mainly my opinion about having alts! Currently, I’ve got 4 alts. Tbh, it is a bit tough rotating with my 5 characters but as zeals mentioned, you dont need to do chaos and guardians on a daily basis if you dont want to.

[@daxon379]

Does knowledge transfer work the same as the power pass?

[@xkuroi6601]

@@daxon379 yeh it does it just costs 600gold tho

Yes it basically the same thing but transfer knowledge does cost you 600 gold for vern and 8 hours waiting time so better do it when you are about to sleep while vern pass is free and your character goes level 50 straight away with some rewards like pet and cosmetics.

I love the fact that you need alts because it gives you a really great reason to continuously try other classes that wont burn you out on your main

[@Apaclypse]

Tbh this kinda reminds me of Destiny and I don’t think it’s a bad thing. Basically in Destiny if you want to be endgame quickly you need 3 characters and need to play all 3 to progress quickly. I do like it cause if let’s you play different classes etc.

[@simoncoweII]

FFXIV does it better. Alts should be optional, not mandatory. Let players decide if they want to play alts, instead of forcing us to sit through a mediocre generic Korean MMO plot with flat (and rare) voice acting and wooden writing 10 times over.

@@JahjuanR I hear your opinion, and I stand by my own. From my perspective, you're boring af for playing the same shit story 12 times to experience all the class-based content a game has to offer instead of just playing a good story once so that you can actually pay attention AND switch freely to try something different at any time, which is intelligent game design because everybody gets what they want: boring people who want to burn themselves out on alts + the same story X times can do so, and the rest of us can spend our time on better content than a story-repeating prolonged leveling process* (which itself is not, and has never been a strong suit of MMOs).

Like, Japan didnt even allow me to buy stuff cuz I was overseas.

I’m assuming there will be catch up boosts when tier 3 come out? I also hear tier 3 is a lot better, is that because it’s easier to gear on main? I’m a new player and don’t care to rush ilvl since there are other ways to progress your character/account.

Hey Zeal! First of all i wanna say, man if you didn't have web cam, i would say you are from west dude, your english is perfect! :D I have some opinions of this game on NAEU release and Lost Ark as game in general, so can you please confirm my statements? 1. T3 release, instead of T1 only, just makes life easier for both casual and new players, and nolifers have something to do atleast with T3. So it's a win-win situation! 2. The "REST" system is damn awesome, so casual+ friendly, nothing do add more, great system! 3. Making this game so great in many aspects with all this classes, 99.9% of players will at some point try other class or more of them simply cause they like the gameplay of it, and devs made the system great by REWARDING players for playing with more alts, NOT MAKING YOU to play alts if you want to progress, cause casual players will anyways spend like 2-4 hours a day and play at their own pace, not rushing anything and just enjoy the game. 4. Devs made "pay for convinience" for those who cant play the game 7+ hours a day but want to taste that 1400+ end game, and they gave them that option but not for free, in my opinion it's great. It's not P2W cause every thing that's in the shop, you can farm, just needs time. In general, developers made the game for everyone imo, or am i wrong at something? And btw, i think the game will explode on release and at some point in time reaching top 3 mmo's. Great and informative video , tnx! :D

[@ZealsAmbitions]

Yes to all four questions in a short answer

[@suqd674]

Make 18 characters, and rotate them in 3-day cycles. Day 1 play chars 1-6, day 2 play chars 7-12, day 3 play chars 13-18. Each character gets 2 days of rest, which will give you 2x drops when you play them.

If you only have time for one character, then one is fine because with the amount of time you have to play per day, you won't be playing the very end content anyway. I got sick of playing with 6. SO considering time vs progression, I found 4 reasonable. With the other 2 I just got bused since I didn't have the time and getting bused you still earn more gold overall than not doing it.

[@pahbehtoh]

Hi Zeal, thanks for the informative video. I have heard from people that when making the alts, it should be the same class as your main, but it hasn't been well explained. I think the idea of many alts of different class could keep things fresh, but if they are all going to be the same..... that surely feels boring. Could you explain on this?

[@ZealsAmbitions]

I’ll make a video on this it was supposed to be part of this video but it was already too long

[@davidpark8822]

Making same class alts would save some resources for setting up that alt. This is because gems are transferrable and read engravings are account-wide. When ur alt gets to t3 legion raids, you would have to get them minimally set for raids. If u have a main of the same class, you dont need to spend gold and silver for setting t3 gems as u can just transfer gems from ur main to ur alt whenever needed. Also if you read engravings relevant to ur main, ur alt will use them too (esp class specific engravings), so u save gold for buying accessories for ur engravings. But as you said, you might get bored by playing one class for multiple characters. So you would just create alts of another class to keep u more engaged in the game. Basically a tradeoff between freshness/fun with efficiency.

[@pahbehtoh]

(wheres my replay ability if that makes sense, i play for 2hours and its all done, whats next? ) Other then that pvp at its current state isnt realy anything over exciting. Quest quest quest is that the point of it all when you have done the rest of the "co-op" stuff or am i missing something here? genuinly id like to know, thank you! For the videos i have watched i think you are good at what your doing and i will be looking here for more lost ark info if needed :) Have a good day

[@orrthehunter]

In my opinion, it is best to have one or two alts. I say this because you still need to go through the story three times to collect all three mounts from specific main story quests and it helps with boosting roster level once you done all your daily/weekly for the day. I say 1 or 2 because it also varies on if a person has decided their main character or not yet. With still 7 jobs unreleased and more new jobs in the future, it is best to focus on two characters for now to build up your stronghold/house, virture, and roster for the future contents. Not to mention prepare some resources for your Main character which won't be released until a future update. I am personally waiting for scouter since that will be my main due to how he is literally the type of character I love playing in games (being the tech and gun user job) but since it will be months or maybe not until next year, I will spend my time for now focusing on taking my time and building up resources, roster level, and rapport with NPC. This way when the time arrives when scouter is released, I can focus on taking my time progress the main storyline from level 1 again as a scouter for the experience of progressing the main story normally.

[@oldundead]

I will never ever go through this boring story again

[@oldundead]

Even less for a stupid mount

[@orrthehunter]

​@@oldundead In my opinion the main story is not bad and is enjoyable. The issue is in the start is that it appears very linear story about good versus evil but does not get interesting until later once players get into the later main storyline from the 2nd awakening quests revealing the bigger picture of events since we are introduced to the 2nd antagonist faction there representing the Order Faction being a corrupt faction within the church thus turning this war into more than just Good versus Evil but into a war between ideals of absolute Order (corrupted church) versus absolute Chaos (demons) versus Neutral (the player and his/her allies). A lot of the good aspect of the Main storyline goes into the when Armen and Kharmine are involved due to how the bigger picture of the main storyline is on their side of the story. I honestly hated how much they forgotten about Armen after we left Luterra since beyond finding the Ark we should have been also looking for Armen as well as he was the guy who been with us since the beginning until his religion screwed with him. Of course they finally address that reason later once we enter the 2nd Awakening storyline being the Journey quests which is a Main Storyline quest. I swear we better get to put a sword through that Bishop leading the corrupt faction of the church because he screwing with too many people who are our character's friends. You can really tell when the story writers are more at their best later in the Main storyline since they know where they want to take the storyline in what is the Season 2 contents of the game by then as they were certainly at their worst during the season 1 Main storyline since they yet to dive into where they want to go story wise yet at that content era. Keep in mind we started global release in early Season 2 contents so we can head into the Season 2 storyline.

[@ZealsAmbitions]

Welcome to mmo

[@wiljosabre]

Thank you for the insight!

[@ki98799]

I'm now at the point where I'm investing in my alts, should I try to get to t2 with one of the asap or should I focus on getting them on an even number? Whats the most efficient?

[@NamChin846]

[@Waiden01]

Thanks for the awesome and informative video. VERY helpful. Zeals, which class from these is great/best at solo play? Paladin, Berserker, or Destroyer.

[@hullgreen8677]

Berserker since destroyer ain’t coming out and will probably be changed by the time we get it

[@Tremeslay]

It could be great to have a video about parking points (ilvl) and stuff like that. Like when I need to park my main and then work on the alt char's parking point. Which points I need to park them at and etc...

[@ZealsAmbitions]

Yup as said in the video that’s coming after we see the patch the release of the game is

[@Tremeslay]

@@ZealsAmbitions Thank you so much. ♥

[@Narcomoeba1]

Hm, was excited playing the game, but kinda discouraged now. I'm having fun right now, but it looks like the game will feel like a job.

[@IceHeat1988]

it doesnt matter the expose, if i become a slave or i dont want to play alts. I can simply accept to enjoy the game and play 1 character, and also accept the pace the game allows me to develop :)

[@IceHeat1988]

which is where Lost Ark falls right into the woke generation, nonbinary people or nowdays mmos: forcing u to a daily LIMIT or enjoyment, gameplay, development. Old school mmo were limited ONLY by ur time,invested into the game, farming, crafting, questing, grinding: nobody said u can do only 1, u had time u could do the shit, u didnt, nobody cared.

[@IceHeat1988]

so nowdays its in such a way that it promotes monetization. They say we want to enjoy content, then let me ask u: WHY THE FUCK DONT THEY CHANGE THAT HONING LOADING SCREENS, man...?

[@iordanbelchev839]

I want to move to Kr servers daamn so much content and its good

[@goldenhole321]

This is what bounces me off of every mmo I play. I guess I’m just not the right type for this genre, the time commit and amount of tedium required to have good end game classes is so boring. I wish there was a non-mmo version of Lost Ark with the same classes and gameplay but with a normal rpg progression 😂 guess I’ll play something else instead of wasting my time.

[@stillfangirlingtoday1468]

Yeah... Who has time for this aside from teenagers and (rich) bums? It makes you wonder.

[@Giggle971]

Then don't be competetive? How hard can it be? Just play casually. Every game out there you need time commitment to be better than others. If you want everything handed to you, go cheat on singleplayer so you can save your little precious time.

[@goldenhole321]

@@Giggle971 You feel better now bud? XD

[@Giggle971]

@@goldenhole321 I'm not the one who's butthurt because a game, which is for playing mind you, hands me everything on a platter so I can wonder why I even play the game when I already have everything. Wish entitled people like you keep your pathetic opinion to yourself, or stop being competitive and realise that just because it's a mmo doesn't mean you have to be the top 1% to have fun. Play casually. Take your time. Ignore the people who are ahead of you and go in your own pace.

[@CL-jq1xs]

@@Giggle971 you mean top 50%? Assuming 50% of the players have an alt. How many people do you think have atleast a single alt to funnel item to their main in lost ark?

[@joeyderosa4805]

outro made me sub

[@number1fanito]

Another beautiful video - thank you!!! My one question will the rested bonus start accumulating even if you make a lvl 1 alt on day 1. So technically you should make 20 alts ASAP to build up your bonus for your main?!

[@ZealsAmbitions]

Not quite sure you get bonus til you hit 50

[@number1fanito]

@@ZealsAmbitions ahhh okay must a 50 thing. But I think it’s a good idea for when you get 50 as I heard the rest bonus does carry over across alts.

[@templeknights]

Just a heads up Zeals roxx confirmed we will have knowledge transfer at launch. I'm guessing it will cost the same gold to boost a character to 50 like the other servers. I'm glad because this saves us the problem of lvling through the story again.

[@ZealsAmbitions]

Doesn’t change a thing, 600 gold is the price for first stage and we don’t know if it’s going to be same as Korea. Also 600g first week of release is mad expensive it’s not the same value per dollar for gold for West and Korea

[@templeknights]

@@ZealsAmbitionsofc I don't expect ppl to use 600 gold first week of launch that's not my reasoning for mentioning it. I just wanted to point out that we have it so you can maybe cover it when you get the chance

[@sobreaver]

Tks a lot ! All the in-depth endgame insights overview I needed to understand about the game to realize that : 1) it's a great game with lots of stuff to do and 2) it's an abyssal siphon of my MOST precious life resource, TIME. At 45yo, I think I've sank enough time in games for my lifetime now, and need to level to something better with my life's time expenditure lol Have a good one allz PS : games (video games specifically) are a distraction like so many or any other, but it's the least profitable compared to ABSOLUTELY anything else in your life, truly, really, honestly, so to use with moderation, that's what I'm trying to say here ;)

[@Vortyrion]

Dude, you don't have 24 charaters, Harem is what you have! :-D Thank you for the valuable information.

[@ndnd1671]

He has catgirl army of alts...

[@hullgreen8677]

He has dude army too

[@chanj329]

holy jesus your alts are higher than my main, bro hit tier 500 lmao no way im gonna get that far

[@philbrake7525]

Thanks for the great video! One thing I'm confused about is having characters across different servers in the same region. Is the shared stash region wide? Is the account XP region wide? Can you share gold between servers?

[@ZealsAmbitions]

Stash is server not region so becareful at picking server

[@philbrake7525]

@@ZealsAmbitions Awesome, thanks for the info! I was slightly confused because you talked about having 20+ characters. If i'm understanding correctly, those characters would all have to be on the same server to gain any benefit, right?

[@bzrkmaniac7157]

I got to T3 on my main and leveled 6 more by playing them. Didn’t use the knowledge transfer yet. I enjoyed playing them. I want the new classes to come out so bad.

[@user-zt3mn2gx4j]

You didn't knowledge transfer to 50??????

[@lordmed9989]

It's maybe fun for Koreans to do like 30 daily activities on 10 alts every single day But for the western players we like to focus on one thing at a time.. Don't get me wrong, i like making alts but i hate feeling the need to use every alt i have on the same day..

[@genshinimpact1547]

What does race have to do with it? Plenty of people watching Zeals over 5000-8000 people love playing alts

[@bryanbryan6108]

For adults with jobs, responsibilities, and other hobbies. 2-3 characters is good for me.

[@litgeorge]

"The developers want you to try the different classes" Me: one sorc main and five sorc alts :D

[@klyxx8990]

Oh fuck there was a video, ignore my question on another video XD I'm a fresh sub I have some catching up to do

[@youngdrgn]

Thx for the vid :)

[@f3irin]

Good Points, will there be a TL;DR how to setup your Bifrosts for Dailys? And when i see your Char Names - i cry because of NA/EU Character Naming Rules 😢🤣

[@bagpipesimp468]

He said yup once the game is out since this is only part 1

[@afrinsart]

i get so distracted by other things when i do dailies. :D my alts would be paladin, gunslinger. im waiting for lance master or the umbrella girl
