Never I apologize. We do have large hammers, whenever Destroyer comes out at lesat.

Destroyer did look way more interesting than the other classes of that type. Berserker is an absolute bore.

What the gently caress do I do with all these god drat engravings. Is there a difference between the rarities with them? I'm going to just have to look up a guide every single time I want to upgrade my character I guess?

You have to unlock the green tier before you can unlock the blue tier, and so on.

If you haven't unlocked your uncommon Class engraving that's worth doing. Uncommon Battle engravings are fairly useless, so I would just stockpile the books until you're ready to jump to rare/epic, at which point you'll know what skills you need.

Oh so I gotta stockpile and use the green versions before I pick up the blue books to get the next tier of that engraving?

Yeah, you can't use blue books for an engraving without having used 20 green books for it first. The only engravings that really matter for most classes until T3 (maaybe T2 if you really want to optimize T2 for unclear reasons) are your class ones, so just pick which of your 2 class engravings you want and get that and then equip your class engraving on both slots. Then shove all other engraving poo poo in a bank without opening it so it stacks.

Dope, thanks everyone!

I wish Abyss Dungeon mechanics just gave you vuln or killed you if you hosed them up and not wiped. At least then it wouldn't feel so loving terrible to try and get these done when you try and tell people what to do and they just don't and then go "ummm quit???"

I haven't had any matchmaking groups fail that mechanic to the point of abandoning the raid (US West).

One group we failed a couple of times, then I called out by name the one person I saw on my screen doing it wrong and what they needed to do instead, and we cleared it first time after that.

I had a group doing the 2nd underwater Abyssal fail because some people kept standing in the wrong spot for orbs over and over again and wouldn't learn, plus someone being a huge rear end in a top hat in chat because there were people who didn't know the mechanic the first time. Felt like I was back home in WoW.

I honestly didn't notice how much gold I was spending on hones, (although that might just be because I'm only breaking into that range one - at level 10 my stuff takes 70 ) but given how little I'm making, yes, the extra 36 on fusion mats is a deal breaker.

Go do those daily dungeons that pop up around the world, the extra gold you get from those will easily cover the crafting costs, at least.

It's going to make Scrapper so nice to play. Being able to just use charging blow for mobility/shock generation and not having to weave it in constantly is so nice. I hope we actually get it in the may update in NA. There's some talk (from Roxx) that we're getting the destroyer buffs in May with the release of destroyer, and the rest of the changes as well. Also pretty excited to see what they do in the identity rework for Scrapper whenever that hits Korea.

I was going to try to swap mains to Lance MasterGlavier, but unless I really love it on release I'm sticking to Scrapper now.

I'm sorry, destroyer buffs? I plan on going all in on gravity bro uhhhh

As I understand it, ignoring recent buffs, Destroyer is currently either the worst class in LA, or close to it. :v:

Yeah I just looked up the most recent buffs translations and holy poo poo they look like some strong changes. No more skill shots and lots of attack speed buffs, armor reduction, extra gravity cores without rng or tripods, some more durability increases and a 3s taunt tripod. Hot drat. As someone who mains GL at the moment this looks hot af

It's not just that, it's happening a bunch of things. Happened to me and a friend a bunch today with treasure maps.

e: Okay so what all do I wanna not gently caress up with this powerpass other than just not using it on a T3 character? I can just sit on it and wait until destroyer hits right?

Found a chill learning group and killed Argos P1 in like 3 tries (yay!), then realized that normal and hard Oreha share the same lock out by doing normal first (boo!)

Argos was a lot more fun than I expected and my new level 3 awakening/blessed aura let me keep my group mostly topped up, which felt nice. I thought the small pizza mechanic was gonna kill us but actually the big pizza hits hard and doesn’t give you much time to prepare. Overall A+ would do a real raid again.

Oh hey, I had almost the exact same experience this week. Argos P1 is fun, P2 seems like it'll be a pain outside of PF.

Sometimes the language used for stuff in this game is odd to me. Does Lone Knight only give crit etc bonus to red skills, or to everything? It says "Gunlance skill" but nothing is explicitly called "Gunlance skill" in game.

Red skills have a tag that says Lance Skill, the same way blue skills have a tag that says Normal Skill.

I know, that's why I'm asking. It doesn't say "Gunlance skill" it says "Lance skill"

Was it supposed to read "Gunlancer skill" or "Lance skill" on the engraving?

It doesn't take a huge leap of logic to infer that Lance skills means Gunlance skills and it's just a difference of translation. Especially when Combat Readiness specifies Normal Skills.

I'm not arguing, what the gently caress? I'm asking. I honestly don't have the feedback in game to tell whether or not it's supposed to apply to everything or just the red skills and I can't find any posts about this anywhere.

i legit had to google what “normal” skills were. i assumed “skills other than your awakening”. it’s a weird rear end way to describe them tbh, like just say shield skills or something?

I had to do the same thing when I first started GL, it's pretty odd.
