Blizzard has been part of my life for 17 years and about 10 professionally. What once was passion and love turned into corporate greed paired with lack of quality of their products as of late has no real connection to a wow content draught
I've been playing video games for over 20 years now. I've been engaging with guides since a time before you could even buy guide books. I think you've managed to make the most helpful, comprehensive, and objectively 'best' guide in the entire history of video gaming. You are a f***ing legend. I got ilvl 460 on my second day with no alts or $. Thanks to your knowledge.
Dude this is incredible, I feel like the studio couldn't have possibly paid enough for this if it were a contracted job, let alone it being a passion project
@@Fintusius You seem like a good dude with a solid soul. I hope you were able to get monetized again! I kept the video on all the way theough just in case!🤣
the musical edits are wonderful throughout the video but 2:26:55 is just GOLDEN edit: this is also by far the best engraving explanation/showcase I have seen
fucking incredible thanks a lot, can't even imagine the work that went into this I just wish the algorithm would make this blow up instead of the same "7 EPIC TIPS FOR LOST ARK LAUNCH MUST WATCH" video recycled over and over again
This video is nuts xD almost 3 hours with non stop information. I have never seen any TH-cam video with that much information in it. thanks for putting all the effort into it!! It helps people a lot. Tank you so much!
THANK YOU!, been trying to play LA for the past week or so and been completely lost with all the systems, currencies, events, dungeons, gearing, gems, etc. This has been incredibly helpful
I haven't played the game yet (just finished downloading) and I'm not a content creator, but I realize what all went into making a video this comprehensive. I appreciate the memes and comedic elements you included. When there is so much information to cover, they help to mix things up a bit so the viewer doesn't feel overwhelmed. Hopefully you were finally able to get some sleep.
I did! Well, kinda.. I am now on caffeine overdose and way too much lost ark gaming! :D Maybe i'll do a chill youtube stream hangout next week with all the things that I've learned that were not included in the video, we'll see!
This game was very overwhelming at first - getting login rewards, items I had no clue what to do with, stones I had no clue to cut - you've sorted all that out! Thanks a bunch and I'm glad YT finally re-monetized your video. You rock!
I'm glad I came to this video after playing the game for a few weeks. I'd have been completely overwhelmed with how in-depth this information is, but now it feels like you're filling in the gaps with the details I'm looking for. Many thanks for this amazingly comprehensive guide.
This is the ONE video that has actually explained strongholds, engravings, faceting and tripod management well enough where I feel confident going into endgame. I played on the RU server for a bit but due to shoddy translation and catch-up mechanics we wont have on EU/NA release, I missed a lot of important things. THANK YOU
Amazing stuff. I'm reading through the Google doc now and love the content. You earned a subscribe and a thank you. Probally more but thats all I have to offer =)
Fantastic video my dude. It was everything I wanted and more (although I must admit, I only got about 1/4 through so far, it's 1am so I'll have to come back tomorrow!) Thanks for putting this together, I can't image how tough it was to coherently script and edit almost 3 hours of content that's this detailed. I'm not a big channel but I've shared this in a community post nontheless as this is quite possibly the best community contribution I've ever seen for this game and it NEEDS to be shared!
Amazing work, took me a good week of watching (and re-watching) to internalize what I could! Very very good job, sry for the problems with YT but be reassured that you helped tons of ppl out there. Me personally I'm sharing the video and google docs with my whole guild and play group and I know others are doing it as well, I hope we will be able to provide the support YT neglected
I wish i had this video before i started the game. Most of the "bigger" content providers held back info from their videos so they could take advantage of new players in the AH, then released videos telling you what you should have watched out for or not done. Fantastic video! Easy sub!
Omg, I've been sailing everywhere manually, even between ports. I'm glad I decided to rewatch this video to find out that I can TP between discovered ports. This is huge! I can't believe this wasn't onboarded by the game or if it was, it wasn't done better! Just after the Kadan quest starting in Vern that was kinda tedious, too. Lol Thx again!
@@Fintusius Oh... Meh, I knew about the ocean liners. I thoughts this was like a faster TP. Oh well. Thx anyway. I guess this made me more aware if nothing else. Took a lot at them again... Eeeh. Costs a lot more than sailing to the same place manually. Saves about 5 mins per trip. I think I'll stick to manual.
This is the best single video on Lost Ark general review. Just hit 34 and just introduced to alot of these systems. Your review was concise and easy to follow. Thank you!!!!!
WOW thank you your hard work in making this video. I have been loving the hell outta Lost Ark and honestly so refreshing being able the mmo space again. Thank you!
@Fintusius great job! Amazing how detail you explain and care about the small things. Do it for more games and you will become BIG! Never saw sutch a good guide and intro to a game. Amazing, amazing amazing! This is what all game companys should do for intro their games. HIRE THIS GUYS, LEGEND !!! KEEP IT UP
What an encyklopedia. Heil to the one and only. Thank you for your massive contribution. Fucking professional. Outstanding hardwork. Im gonna use this video all the time for sure 💙
23:25 The NA/EU max combat level is 60 as well. Tier 3 Content T3 gear will be available at launch, as well as a few core T3 dungeons to support proper progression including as Oreha’s Well (Abyssal Dungeon), Chaos Dungeon Stage 3, and the Velganos Guardian Raid. The Combat level cap has been increased to 60. Additional T3 content will be added to the game post-launch in order to set the pace for player progression, both in terms of new content and optimal difficulty
Insane guide. A lot work were done behind this one. I'm still stuck at level 668 because Honing fails 98% of the time...Which means farming shards etc. is just waste of time. It's not fun to farm for hours when you know you will lose everything in only minutes when you are honing. I had to give up honing in this game.
Once you have reached 600 ilvl, you're supposed to go to yorn! Once that is completed, you'll be able to get new 802 gear which will replace your old 600 items
Great video Fintusius.. I enjoyed it (and still am once in a while when I look things up hehe) and thanks for making timestamps and all the effort you put into it :) Hope TH-cam will listen too your mail..
Thank you! I have spent 5+ hours watching others and not understanding half of what you explained here. Wish I found this first as the others was wasted time compared. Can't express enough but, THANK YOU! ps. Insta-sub!
@@Fintusius Already done that! Btw, exceptional quality in production for a channel this small. You will get big if you continue in this manner (the quality not the length). I REALLY appreciate the no bullsh*t and straight to facts.
@Fintusius Thank you for this great video, it was an amazing help. I know it must have taken a lot of effort and a lot of time to put together, and you are appreciated. 👍
Hello, great content! Much appreciate the time and effort. Just want to point out the "Moving Around Arkesia" chapter was labeled incorrectly on the video itself. You put "Cooking, Food Buffs & Feasts" twice.
complicated question but would you mind taking me through your thought process, formatting process, preplanning and the general formation of this video. I'm a creator myself and I find this level of video coordination mesmerizing and i'd like to know your processes for video planning.
you can probably always ask me for tips in my discord, assuming I'm able to give them but for this video it's actually "simple" - it took a few months so this allows for many changes and reiterations having access to a group of dedicated friends that know next to nothing about this subject was definitely a good source of beginner friendly feedback too
Installing game now but as a vet mmo player I wanna add to the alt thing. Playing all the other classes at least for a little is hiiiighly beneficial to becoming a good endgamet as u understand what it team is capable of and what weaknesses to avoid etc. And in pvp it's invaluable cuz then u know the opponents entire toolkit

I cant find the pvp information page. In the video, you found it in the Character tab, but mine doesnt have it, not even a greyed out one.
Likely caused by ranked mode not being available for the first week of release, the pvp rank tab is currently unavailable
TH-cam is suck.
this is fantastic.

europeans are pretty altruistic, seems like they paid for this,but i doubt it
Sadly I'm still trying to get it restored
Truly an encyclopedia of information. Crazy work, can't even imagine how much time this must've taken to make
About 5 months!
hellow trackmania commenter nice to see you here
Wasn't expecting to see a clip of my fire staff footage at 16:30, cool to see.
neither did the new world playerbase
@@Fintusius Appreciate the video and the hundreds of hours you probably put into it. New World really let me down, hoping this game doesn't.
Commenting for the algorithm. This needs to blow up. I thank you for your hard work! You’ve got yourself a subscriber 🤙🏽
the musical edits are wonderful throughout the video but 2:26:55 is just GOLDEN
edit: this is also by far the best engraving explanation/showcase I have seen
fucking incredible

You're welcome!
I watched the whole thing. As a new player, it was quite helpful. And most importantly, it brought me 3 hours closer to launch.
I haven't played the game yet (just finished downloading) and I'm not a content creator, but I realize what all went into making a video this comprehensive. I appreciate the memes and comedic elements you included. When there is so much information to cover, they help to mix things up a bit so the viewer doesn't feel overwhelmed.

Saving it for after work, what a mad lad, great work!
I watched the ads and visited the site ads for the first time in my life, hugely worth it
Wohooo, this video was a ride, thanks for covering EVERYTHING!
This game was very overwhelming at first - getting login rewards, items I had no clue what to do with, stones I had no clue to cut - you've sorted all that out!
Thanks a bunch and I'm glad YT finally re-monetized your video.
You rock!
Thanks man, you rock too!
May lord fucking bless your soul. Thank you so much for making such an in-depth video about a game as large as Lost Ark. Truly incredible.
Happy it helped! May you find happiness in life
I'm glad I came to this video after playing the game for a few weeks. I'd have been completely overwhelmed with how in-depth this information is, but now it feels like you're filling in the gaps with the details I'm looking for. Many thanks for this amazingly comprehensive guide.
Thank you very much, that was indeed an intention of mine! I will likely try to add 1 or 2 more videos for additional gap filling in the coming weeks
This is the ONE video that has actually explained strongholds, engravings, faceting and tripod management well enough where I feel confident going into endgame.

complicated question but would you mind taking me through your thought process, formatting process, preplanning and the general formation of this video.
I'm a creator myself and I find this level of video coordination mesmerizing and i'd like to know your processes for video planning.
you can probably always ask me for tips in my discord, assuming I'm able to give them
but for this video it's actually "simple" - it took a few months so this allows for many changes and reiterations
having access to a group of dedicated friends that know next to nothing about this subject was definitely a good source of beginner friendly feedback too

Great work buddy. I hope this new journey will be fun.
It's nice to have real hope for a change
Can we all appreciate the fact he made a video of almost 3 hours and he put zero ads in it?
And it's an amazing video on top of that
Great video. Just so you know, rapport is pronounced without the t. ra'por.
I think it's a French word that we also use in English, but yeah, no t.
I promise you I'll never do this error again, as this word will now haunt me in my sleep
Installing game now but as a vet mmo player I wanna add to the alt thing. Playing all the other classes at least for a little is hiiiighly beneficial to becoming a good endgamet as u understand what it team is capable of and what weaknesses to avoid etc. And in pvp it's invaluable cuz then u know the opponents entire toolkit
