Been trying to wrap my head around the subject for quite a while and your video was the most consistent and easy to understand. So easy that I almost feel silly for not having understood sooner by myself. Really nice vids Codiak as always!
This video has great info. With that said....This is one of the areas of Lost ark that is extremely overcomplicated and more of a headache than something fun.
Still massively confused by which engraving stats to focus on by class. and the wiki didn't list half of the ability stones mods I had. Very frustrating for a new player.
This was a more of an intermediate guide...NICE! I found a guide for infants (like myself, lol), so I understood this alot better this time. Thank you!!
Bro I have been following your channel for a good while between two youtube accounts and honestly I joined Legacy gaming because they passion you have when talking about Lost Ark and even other games before is capturing. Thanks for all the info your giving.
Just getting in to losk ark and this guide helps alot. Ty. Ive always been confused on how engravings work. There is so much rng in this game from honing, quality, stat rolls, cards... i think it will take me a year of grinding everyday to get to brel raid 😂
This is an extremely user unfriendly system. You get engraving recipes early on during leveling and the game expects you to know to save them all up? I used all of the few green ones I had on random abilities at lvl 30 thinking to unlock all of them eventually anyway. Have I just screwed my endgame progression?
I feel like this is the intention. Confuse players, they use the stuff wrong, and are stuck grinding to make up the difference. I really wish this game didnt have 400 different systems with half of them seemingly just fluff and the others being make or break for endgame.
@@Futuran123 I’m past lvl 50 and still get green books, blue books so no need to worry. Just start grinding ignite and reflux build. You also can buy the books @ the auction house
I absolutely hate systems like this where they give you a ton of limited and extremely valuable class stuff like engravings and then never ever tell you how important they really are unless you are a veteran of Korean MMO game design. Either way, thank you for the video because engravings are still confusing as all hell lmao.
agreed. Its super frustrating. I opened a chest and selected all out attack for all of them. Didnt know i couldnt use them all and that i'd need to use blue rarity. Wish you could exchange them at an npc for another one of that same tier.
7:00 I'm now confused. Where does investment banking come into this? So, the engraving underperforms the investment target, and now must pay me? In what currency?
@@enthusiasticamateur8516 I just hit level 29 and got my first stones and engravings so as a new player I can confirm that it absolutely did the trick for me
You found your calling, bro. You're a pro at this. Best Lost Ark videos on TH-cam. One question though...the Books unlock Engravings and Engravings are shared across all characters on your account on the same server...so why shouldn't I just use all the books and unlock everything thereby unlocking everything for all my characters?
Because they let you choose which ones you unlock first depending on your choice. So ideally you'd pick the ones for your *main* or the toons you're currently playing
@@kajiwebster8802 ....I still don't understand...your engravings are unlocked for all your characters on a server. If engravings are unlocked for all characters when you unlock them, why does it matter which character reads the book? That's where I'm getting lost. Wouldn't all your characters' unlocked engravings be the same?
@@bl568 Because there are limited amounts of these books from fixed rewards. So the ones that let you choose, you should be only picking the ones you need. When you get random books, by all means, learn them and sell the extras.
Even though, I've watch this before I reach the engraving quest, I still committed a mistake. I should have double check the engraving prices in the auction house and see which engraving was expensive thus more valuable to get first. Your account is given one time quest which will give you 5 class engraving book and 20 combat engraving of your choice. And I just used that free books into the ether drop which is only valued as 1 gold in the market!
When you're going to take on the Faceting RNG, try the following practice: First, identify the stat you're most interested in - I'll refer to this as your "Favored Stat", and the other will be your "Backup Stat". Then prioritize the probability as follows: Odds > 60%: Click Favored Stat Odds < 60%: Click Backup Stat Odds < 45%: Click Malus While we're always subject to a % chance of failure, this will /gEnEraLLy/ optimize our chances of success and minimize our risk.
Appreciate the video dude. I've been spamming G through pretty much everything since the dialogue and story (in the beginning at least; level 39 atm) is god awful. Had no clue you could double equip Engravings lol
Still confused over Imprints. Are these the only engravings that are in effect for the character? Or does all engravings work for you character? What effect does Imprints do on your character?
I have the same question. Like for example if I have grudge x6 unlocked on my dps, but now play my paladin will grudge be activated on my paladin too in the engravings window?
How does explosive expert work? I read it as the ability to use two or more slots, in the combat/support slots, for grenades, but that is not the case.
Ok so, correct me if I'm wrong but are stone of birth sole existance is to complement the imprints? If one of my engraving (for the imprint) is missing 4 or 5 engraving points to complete a level, you can use the stones to get that level for your imprints?
Can someone explain me, why in this video jewlery is mentioned not to destroy it, "because it can be god item for alts" , since items I get from dungeons and runs CANT BE TRANSFERED to roaster inventory????
So how many engraving can be actived at the same time? Like 2 from imprint slots and 2 from agility stone in total is 4? I jave heard ppl say 5 lvl 3 and 1lvl 2 in end game, what is that ?
If the progress for engravings is saved across all my characters on a server, why should I not just learn all the books I receive since they will all contribute to the same pool accessible by all my alts?
(Correction?) In abyssal dungeons you're able to get class engravings for other classes you're not playing. I got Gunslinger and Deadeye engravings on my Gunlancer.
Great Videos, I was so confused in regards to Engravings, most of the questions were answered in the vid. Thanks a bunch! Now, you mentioned you have a Guild in-game, how does one join your guild? Please advise, tried typing in Legacy Gaming in search, nothing comes up in the NA West Mari server.
Maybe i heard you wrong on not getting other class engravings but yesterday I did get a demon blade engraving on my paladin as a reward from my first abyssal dungeon.
Yeah when we were in the PTR and RU clients, this wasn't the case. This was possibly part of the KR quality of life changes that are present in our version, so that was our mistake. We had both gotten our class engravings a few times now, but just today I got one for another class myself. Will pin a comment about this.
What if I took the wrong engravings from the green books for my main? Is it possible to level up the 2nd class specific engraving as well, and if so how to? @Legacy_Gaming
bro i just saw this after opening them all last night and i chose one of each book i cant wait to have to grind gold to buy them now although i only just reached the first chaos dungeons
so how can we figure out what is the best ability stone traits for us? every class guide ive watched for demonic impulse, it doesnt mention the ability stones at all but rather just the engravings
So, how can i have more engravings effects active if i use my jewelery and slots just to get maybe 2 at a max? Like when u search for builds, there are shown at least 3-4 engravings. How do i use more??
ive been trying to google this but still cant find the answer. can you change the engravings you got on your rings/necklaces? i got some armor that gives me the stats i need but gives the bad engraving i dont want
Being playing on NA servers past couple of days I accidently used 10 uncommon engraving books on disrespect so I figured I 'd finish it until I got enough for something else. Already had 10/20 points and I had just gotten 10 more uncommon books and went to unlock the engraving but I'm only at 11/20. How is this possible. I opened and read 10 more but it only counted 1? Is 1 book not = to 1 point after a certain amount? or did the game glitch and lost the rest?
so if i wanted grudge engraving, would i want to go for max 12 points from all books or get it level 1 or 2 and just get the rest of the points from accessories and stones
There is something I don t understand though. In order to have the engaving effect applied I have to equip the engraving or is it enough just to unlock those nods?
Is there any reason to level engravings that you or an alt won't use? For instance with cards you should ideally level all of them for the permanent stats right? Even if you don't equip them? But it doesn't look like there's a system like that for engravings?
**** CORRECTION ****
You can get OTHER class engravings from Abyssal Dungeons, not just your own. Just happened to us finally to confirm that along with the comments.

I believe engravings are learned account-wide.

The production quality of these videos is consistently excellent, great job - new favorite youtube content.
Still massively confused by which engraving stats to focus on by class. and the wiki didn't list half of the ability stones mods I had. Very frustrating for a new player.
Just Google your class + engravings. Wtf?
Just search your class on TH-cam the dude wil tell you what are the best engraving
no
I clicked because it was the shortest guide. Happy it also turned out to be straight forward and clear to understand, thank you very much.
hi legacy gaming. Pretty good vidEo you posted here. i like everythiNg about It. congrats on the hundreds of thousands of subScribers dude.
Idk why my comments keep getting removed :(

Another amazing video. Thank you brother!
First guy clearly explaining what's going on. At last!
Trying to find out about engravings was driving me crazy. This helped a lot.
Thank you dude for this info! Stay awesome!
Your guides are the best for this game BY A FUCKING MILE COMPARED TO EVERYTHING ELSE! Thank you SO much!
Great guides Codiak. Clear and concise thanks 👍
Glad you like them!
most stuff i figuered out but this system I really needed an explanation - you did the job :) thank you
think the alone fact that i can equip one engraving twice (class engraving for me) was a huge help x)
would have missed that thx
This almost makes sense now. Thank you!

A well made guide on engravings that explains it nicely, both for new players and experienced players.
This is not good for new player's

Thanks so much, this game did NOT explain the system well. Checked here before wasting my engraving recipe books and I'm glad I did!
neato thanks dude! engraving stones is still a mystery to me haha
Didn't realize I can equip 2 of the same to go from 3 to 6 points. THANK YOU
Thanks now I know all the books wasted, I wish I found you guys earlier, but now you got new sub for sure should check you guys out before

35 minutes until EU/NA launch.... plenty of time to cram in some more important info! 😁

Somehow im still confused how it works, but I think I will rewatch this once I played a bit more.
2 slots for engravings, will those engravings + 3 + 6 work, which we did not put in the slots, but they were pumped, thank you
Was playing the game having a blast then got my stronghold and all. HOLY SHIT so much to freak digest! Got so overwhelmed 🤣
Very informative video, thx dude. Continue your hard work
Thank you for the information! :)
When you're going to take on the Faceting RNG, try the following practice: First, identify the stat you're most interested in - I'll refer to this as your "Favored Stat", and the other will be your "Backup Stat". Then prioritize the probability as follows:
Odds > 60%: Click Favored Stat
Odds < 60%: Click Backup Stat
Odds < 45%: Click Malus
While we're always subject to a % chance of failure, this will /gEnEraLLy/ optimize our chances of success and minimize our risk.
what's your spread once backup stat is used up?
Thanks for the upload!
Thanks, just thank you. Good short and precise guide.
Appreciate the video dude. I've been spamming G through pretty much everything since the dialogue and story (in the beginning at least; level 39 atm) is god awful.
Had no clue you could double equip Engravings lol
Man you are a god tier explainer
Hopefully the vid and graphics Livid and I put together left no questions unanswered
Fark this is confusing tbh but great video I may have to watch again
Thanks for the awesome info!
Still confused over Imprints. Are these the only engravings that are in effect for the character? Or does all engravings work for you character? What effect does Imprints do on your character?

Oh my gosh thank you so much! I really need this video and more like it in fact 😵 lost ark has so much stuff to do to get your character stronger 😥
You guys are awesome thank you
Hella good video. Thank you.
This video is so well made! Thanks alot!
Great video, would have been nice to mention the quests along the way that give the free class engravings etc :)
Thank you!
how do we get more engravings than the classic luterra quest etc which gives you 20 points
Thanks for the video. Liked and subbed
Pretty much the best content creator for gaming. Keep it up
Much love me and that means so much
This game is legit rocket sience
Kinda tragic I only just found your channel yesterday. Your great at explaining things and putting the right footage together
Awesome video ty
How does explosive expert work? I read it as the ability to use two or more slots, in the combat/support slots, for grenades, but that is not the case.
thank you for explanation
This is so helpful, thanks for this content!
how to do add class engravings on to necklaces/accessories?
is it purely just some luck of the drop or can you add them on after?
Thanks for this video! I was totally confused in game, but this helps it makes more sense. ^_^
Very helpful video, thanks
Great video
Ok so, correct me if I'm wrong but are stone of birth sole existance is to complement the imprints? If one of my engraving (for the imprint) is missing 4 or 5 engraving points to complete a level, you can use the stones to get that level for your imprints?
Can someone explain me, why in this video jewlery is mentioned not to destroy it, "because it can be god item for alts" , since items I get from dungeons and runs CANT BE TRANSFERED to roaster inventory????
all the "things I wish I knew" videos and nobody said "don't mess up the early sidequests that give you a bunch of engraving books"
So how many engraving can be actived at the same time? Like 2 from imprint slots and 2 from agility stone in total is 4? I jave heard ppl say 5 lvl 3 and 1lvl 2 in end game, what is that ?
Good video. I’m still foggy on all of this however. But great content.
Should I only use the engraving recipes for the 1st and 2nd slot of engraves? Since the other engrave stats will come from accessories and stones.
If the progress for engravings is saved across all my characters on a server, why should I not just learn all the books I receive since they will all contribute to the same pool accessible by all my alts?
this is what I want to know, if it's server wide then why not just learn everything on your main
(Correction?) In abyssal dungeons you're able to get class engravings for other classes you're not playing. I got Gunslinger and Deadeye engravings on my Gunlancer.
Confused. Are facet stones equippable? Are only the 2 engraved pendant slots your active engravings along with jewelry?

so i am still confused for the malice engravings. when you upgrade them do you want it to fail? or do you want it to succeed?
You want as few malice gems as possible, otherwise you are going to have negative effects on your character.
@@LegacyGamingUS so when you upgrade you want it to fail or succeed?
@@xriichiieriichx5022 you want them to fail (i.e. have as few filled in red malice points as possible)
@@winter117a So is the percentage given above it (Chance of cracking) chance to be filled red or empty?
@@taikalanne That's the success chance for it being filled with red. The lower, the better.
Maybe i heard you wrong on not getting other class engravings but yesterday I did get a demon blade engraving on my paladin as a reward from my first abyssal dungeon.
Also to that, my guild mate got a gunner engraving playing his berserker.

i need help too broo, i cant understand how can i get the green books
Same, help pls.
You will get more books it´s ok :) Don´t worry too much about it while leveling
@@SpicyWale got many of em while leveling side q's etc, idd it's nothing to worry about
Potentially what's the maximum number of lvl 3 engravings can you have, three?
five
Thank you for the information
Thank you
If I get 'bis' jewelery in tier 1, can I transfer the engravings to my next t2 jewelery? If so, where?
bro i just saw this after opening them all last night and i chose one of each book i cant wait to have to grind gold to buy them now although i only just reached the first chaos dungeons
There are still a ton to earn from all the islands in the game, so just be careful with your selections going forward.
Amazing guide, super easy to understand
Jesus this video is a god send. I was so confused when I had to mess around with the initial stone and engraving quest.
so how can we figure out what is the best ability stone traits for us? every class guide ive watched for demonic impulse, it doesnt mention the ability stones at all but rather just the engravings
Do the engravings need to be slotted in order to gain their effects.
So, how can i have more engravings effects active if i use my jewelery and slots just to get maybe 2 at a max? Like when u search for builds, there are shown at least 3-4 engravings. How do i use more??
i like that there the premiere thing where i can see it is upcoming
You can have more than 2 engravings active? Or only just the two you equip that’s shown in your player profile?
ive been trying to google this but still cant find the answer. can you change the engravings you got on your rings/necklaces? i got some armor that gives me the stats i need but gives the bad engraving i dont want
Question : when should I, or when can I expect to reach tier 2 class engraving?
kinda messed up my first 5 blue stones will i get more along the way? i was learning blinded if not thats okay i can wait for the chaos dungeons
Being playing on NA servers past couple of days I accidently used 10 uncommon engraving books on disrespect so I figured I 'd finish it until I got enough for something else.

so if i wanted grudge engraving, would i want to go for max 12 points from all books or get it level 1 or 2 and just get the rest of the points from accessories and stones
Haha oh thank you. I thought engraving were just from these stones but i could hardly get 5 unlocks on a stat, and didnt even know how to get to lvl 2
There is something I don t understand though. In order to have the engaving effect applied I have to equip the engraving or is it enough just to unlock those nods?
You need to have it equipped in your imprints to take advantage of the engraving
how do u get the power nodes point for it to activate
How do I do a blue class engraving if i have a green engraving selected on combat? it's not letting me
Is there any reason to level engravings that you or an alt won't use? For instance with cards you should ideally level all of them for the permanent stats right? Even if you don't equip them? But it doesn't look like there's a system like that for engravings?
