I work a full time job that varies between travel, nights, and called in on weekends. I am also doing a masters degree and working my other hobbies. I can still play Throne and liberty in free time when I can and I am almost 3k combat power with all f2p. Not that bad.
You lie like a dog. 110 hours since release. Only 2300 gear score plua i am in the number 1 guild on my server. If you are 3k score, you bought lucent or play more than you let on to
It’s kinda the point of the game if the game wasn’t a grind would be very boring sure they COULD make it a little less harsh but that’s kind of the point of MMOS to be grindy
it is not. i work ~ 8-9 hours a day and i'm at about 2,5k gear score. I dont have a guild yet, and i wasted 15 hours because i didnt know that you can craft green parchements :) so i farmed all single green parchement instead of doing contracts for blue parchments.
Oh I did way worse. Obtained chernobogs blade with +hit... i wanted to add heavy attack trait, had 100 unlockstones... somehow instead of adding a trait i frikin rerolled the +hit one. I'm still crying... frikin misclick
I used all my trait unlock stones, but it was to get 3 good traits on the purple dagger in cave of destruction. Still feel like it wasn't that bad of a decision, but idk what the best daggers are 😂
There's one method that sometimes end up as cheapest way to level your traits and its best starting from building the first traits but its not required, it is price dependent on your server but if you have some really expensive traits in your build you can simply grab the cheapest trash trait extract for your gear and then buy blue items to build pity on that trait, am not sure on the concrete math regarding how much pity you get for one blue but you need around 400 pity for 100% chance, so you can build up 1200, 2400, or 3600 pity, then convert the trash trait to trait of your choosing and enjoy one tapping all the traits with blues to max level. Obviously this works best for the armor pieces, not so much for weapons and accessories cause the prices can get a bit high on the blue items, but it may be still worth it you just have to do the math and compare prices :)
Big sax? Sonny Rollins maybe? Seriously, this really excellent overview of this tech that most people are sleeping on. Making purples you choose for your build and working on the trats over time is so much better than just rushing into whatever Purples fall, as I see many do. I've tried to keep over 1100 melee/ranged evasion going into purples and its been quite a puzzle to be sure, making me sit on some drops as I go after others and use lithos. This is a really helpful piece of the puzzle.
The trait unlockstones are harder to get than just grinding for sollant. I highly recommend doing contracts and unlocking traits that way with trait conversion stones and paying outright because unlockstones are hard to come by and take much longer.
@syyndev2161 yeah it's true. In order to unlock the trait you need the exact piece of gear with that trait or to use unlock stones. Once it is "unlocked" we'll say, you can use any similar piece of gear for increasing the trait level(so helm for helm, boots for boots. Etc.)
good add on, you get double value when using trait stones on accessories. half the price, same stat values, often more expensive if you have good epics.
Bro why do you look like a doppelgänger of my brother, what kind of sorcery is this, wth - GGs on the vid btw, I hope your channel grows in proportion to the useful info you provide us!
I believe the weekly Two Tower bosses give trait unlock stones too. Also super important (I wasted a lot of stones rolling random), it costs LESS trait conversion stones if you have the extract of the trait that you need. (it will be greyed out unless it's on your person).
What happens if you convert a trait that is already maxed out? I mean... what happens if I have a maxed out 4/4 Undead Bonus Damage and I want to convert it to Critical Hit Chance? The Critical Hit Chance trait will be 4/4 or it will reset to 1/4?
wow I was looking for a Trait Unlockstone video didnt find any for days just used 100 stones for my weapon heavy hit chance trait unlock and now your video drops 😅 at least it saved me 750 lucent but I feel still not worth it
I dont get why they dont invest more resources into development of actual game content, instead the players are confronted with those convolutet gear progression systems.... game had me hooked but f that
Great video man. I commited to fully trait my bis blue gear, and its doable as f2p. As long I can get any item by playing i dont care for swipe. Whats the point in playing mmo and have max power day 1 :D.
I’d love to grind dungeons regardless but being solo it’s painful having to wait 15/20 mins for a group to then waste another 10 mins doing the dung just to find out only me and one other person knows the mechs and everyone leaves cus they don’t know what they doing. I’ve literally never finished temple of slaughter because of it.
Question - can you covert a maxed out trait? Lets say 4-bar health regen to max hp, or 4-bar undead dmg in weap to attack speed or heavy att? Would save a whole lot of lucent
man the auction house and economy of this game is awful like imagine if sollant was just the main currency and grinding small stuff like mining and selling the resources to players/npc was a viable method for sollant it would be insanely good i mean there should be 2 player driven marketplaces one being something smaller like a bazaar and then the bigger one for gear or traits being the auction house and instead of it entirely relying on lucent it should be an option to list your stuff for either lucent or sollant. the way the game is now no one would ever spend time to grind for a rare drop and then max it out to sell it for profit on the auction house since you can only use lucent on there and who tf is going to buy lets say 20k lucent for one item? the sense of economy just isnt there and i doubt they will ever rework it, right now the game just feels like you have no power at all
@@FakeUni Sorry, I thought you had the Shock Commander Greaves. I’ve been try to find a way to farm it, but it looks like it only drops from World Boss
I see many guides saying you should go for the Evasion traits but also heard a few people endurance is going to be better lategame. Can anyone explain which is actually best and in what way they differ?
As i know (im kinda new too) endurance is better for now, bcause eva best items are under unrealeased content and maybe cant be farmed as casuals...smthing about arch bosses or stuff like that 😅
it depends on which traits you have on your gear. if the item is already traited with two bad ones, considering three are good and three are bad (normally, not always), it has a 3/4 chance of the roll be a decent trait. If you already got two good ones, the chance of getting the third good trait it's 1/4. In fact, traits have different % of dropping, so this is not exactly precise, but works as a general idea.
Endurance is reduce the chance of getting hit by a critical hit! If the enemy has 500 critical hit rate and you have 500 endurance they never going to crit hit you!
If the item is exactly the same then YES! For example you have 2 shock commander helmet. First with meele endurance, the second with ranged endurance. If you "forge" it together you can have both traits in one gear at lv1. Which is usually 40 points.
Can you convert a trait that's maxxed out? Seems like it would save a LOT more to find a worthless trait, throw it on there, then max it out and then convert it since it takes a fraction of the stones.
Do armor only need 50 trait unlockstone to unlock trait? Because in my toublek bow i need 100. I messed up using 100 trait unlockstone for heavy attack chance. Should have used it on rarer armor traits.
Were on the same boat used 100 aswell for toublek staff heavy attack 😂 but its not tooo bad I think because its like 750 lucent still saved but yeah most people use them for items that are very rare and a really hard to get multiple copies of with different traits
@@thevalorantguy8615 nah there are like 8-14 traits you need to unlock in most builds that are mega expensive not nearly enough traitunlock stones for that they really just help with 1 item or 2. For example my build has like 5 items where the traits are like 1k to 4k and 2 items that IF I GET THEM that are best in slot that are from world bosses so there wont be any traits in auction and If there are any they are like 10k Lucent so its still hard p2w becaue everything I said can just be done with real money in 5 sec, still I love this game its fun to play and I personally dont care that much about p2w in pve
It's because the supply of an item is limited. Making it even more rare since it one of the first few to hit the servers. So people pay premium prices to get these things.
I mean total useless doing this u will not finish before new gear is coming and in fact there is nothing to use the gear for if ur done. Just a waste the hole Game 😅
Your videos are the best I've seen to present complicated topics in a concise and easy to understand manner. Thank you.
when you open a small portal you get a notice text if a big portal spawns ;) so dont go out there and search for it after opening any small portal :)
For the casual player, with a real life, this game is a serious grind.
most mmo are marathons
I work a full time job that varies between travel, nights, and called in on weekends. I am also doing a masters degree and working my other hobbies. I can still play Throne and liberty in free time when I can and I am almost 3k combat power with all f2p. Not that bad.

I wish I saw this video before dropping all trait unlockstones on my first epic :(
It's ok. Live and learn. Still early enough to make the right decisions now!
Same here, dropped a major F bomb when I realised what I wasted
Oh I did way worse. Obtained chernobogs blade with +hit... i wanted to add heavy attack trait, had 100 unlockstones... somehow instead of adding a trait i frikin rerolled the +hit one. I'm still crying... frikin misclick

Depending on the epic that might be perfectly fine. You are not getting an archboss weapon anytime soon if ever.
coming in clutch with the vid during downtime

Loved watching your videos and tips during BDO. Audibly gasped seeing you upload videos for TaL, amazing tips. Learned a lot.
Glad you like them!
i just got 50 like 4 days ago and your vids helped me tremendously :) thanks
Holy f*** this is a fantastic video you taught me atleast 3 different ways to get them i had no clue existed thank you

FakeUni delivered again , very nice guide, thank you sir!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I don't know if this is new after the update but you can also get trait unlock stones from dynamic events.
Shock commander chest piece dropped yesterday. Never knew it was this expensive lol. I was on the verge of equipping and transfer.
The start of the video is insane.
😂
The trait unlockstones are harder to get than just grinding for sollant. I highly recommend doing contracts and unlocking traits that way with trait conversion stones and paying outright because unlockstones are hard to come by and take much longer.
you dont need to use the same item name . you can use any helm item with mele endurance on it after its unlocked
is this true? i thought you need the same exact item?
After it's unlocked, yes..
To upgrade a trait, yes. To unlock a trait, no
@syyndev2161 yeah it's true. In order to unlock the trait you need the exact piece of gear with that trait or to use unlock stones. Once it is "unlocked" we'll say, you can use any similar piece of gear for increasing the trait level(so helm for helm, boots for boots. Etc.)

good add on, you get double value when using trait stones on accessories.
half the price, same stat values, often more expensive if you have good epics.
Stay humble & stack your trait unlock stones.
The grind is real
this guide was amazing. Thanks for posting
They made the gear grind a full time job. Makes me feel so tired.
Welcome to an MMO
1:30 This is why blue gear is better. You can make a full upgrade very quick and the item is way better than a lila Item with only 1 Trait
You also can get Trait Unlock stones as a "lucky" reward from dynamic events. Although I have no clue if that's tied to standing or not
Bro why do you look like a doppelgänger of my brother, what kind of sorcery is this, wth - GGs on the vid btw, I hope your channel grows in proportion to the useful info you provide us!
We're all clones
Thank you bro making great videos on this game - game changer.
Thanks for the guide Fakeuni :D

greyed out unless it's on your person thx i was confused
Is that Two tower bosses the gates of infinity?
I believe so yes @@TheDizzled32
amazing video! thank you
Another good video of the monki boi.
This was very helpful wish i saw it sooner
Thanks again Fake
This has to be the least user friendly system to exist in a video game, who the hell thought this was a good idea?
South Koreans
great guide!
Glad it was helpful!
You are now my go to for brilliant easy to grasp information - thanks, needed this :D 👍
This is what I need to know where to get these things Ty
the selling of item is really crazy
Can you sell your shock commander's trait after unlocking it via trait unlockstone?
You got to extract it with extraction stones but pretty sure it destroys the armor/weapon when you extract the trait to sell it on the auction house.
@@teddylovecake yeah but still that would yield lots of lucent on some items
@berkaykurkcu absolutely expecially if you've already traited ur item
If you need more zenus starstone, you can hit the + icon in the battlepass and buy for lucent
Nice to see you branch out ! Your production quality is already top tier ! You will easily become one of the top tnl creators
What happens if you convert a trait that is already maxed out?
I mean... what happens if I have a maxed out 4/4 Undead Bonus Damage and I want to convert it to Critical Hit Chance? The Critical Hit Chance trait will be 4/4 or it will reset to 1/4?
Back to lv 1
you can buy those rings you need with abyssal currency as well brother. cheers
really good guide
wow I was looking for a Trait Unlockstone video didnt find any for days just used 100 stones for my weapon heavy hit chance trait unlock and now your video drops 😅 at least it saved me 750 lucent but I feel still not worth it
Great video about trait everythin ypu need to know about it
I dont get why they dont invest more resources into development of actual game content, instead the players are confronted with those convolutet gear progression systems.... game had me hooked but f that
This is the reason why ppl quit
@@Endaethia at this point we need to stick with indie developers
New drinking game: Drink whenever he says "Trait unlockstones"
Great video man. I commited to fully trait my bis blue gear, and its doable as f2p. As long I can get any item by playing i dont care for swipe. Whats the point in playing mmo and have max power day 1 :D.
Fully traiting a blue is like 100 lucent, You dont want the good traits since You gonna put it into epic anyway
check out the leveling log, that also giving you some of trait unlockstone, also you get 25 token dungeon soul shard
I’d love to grind dungeons regardless but being solo it’s painful having to wait 15/20 mins for a group to then waste another 10 mins doing the dung just to find out only me and one other person knows the mechs and everyone leaves cus they don’t know what they doing. I’ve literally never finished temple of slaughter because of it.
might have better luck with the party board. as a DPS, i basically never queue through matchmaking
Question - can you covert a maxed out trait? Lets say 4-bar health regen to max hp, or 4-bar undead dmg in weap to attack speed or heavy att? Would save a whole lot of lucent
PSA- the battlepass IS retroactive, this means if u have finished the free one and purchase the paid one, you WILL get all the rewards!
You mean like literally every battlepass ever? good to know.
good vid
man the auction house and economy of this game is awful like imagine if sollant was just the main currency and grinding small stuff like mining and selling the resources to players/npc was a viable method for sollant it would be insanely good i mean there should be 2 player driven marketplaces one being something smaller like a bazaar and then the bigger one for gear or traits being the auction house and instead of it entirely relying on lucent it should be an option to list your stuff for either lucent or sollant. the way the game is now no one would ever spend time to grind for a rare drop and then max it out to sell it for profit on the auction house since you can only use lucent on there and who tf is going to buy lets say 20k lucent for one item? the sense of economy just isnt there and i doubt they will ever rework it, right now the game just feels like you have no power at all
Yeah, i totally agree. The biggest problem is you cannot even sell a maxed out item if you wish for.
thanks again
Always welcome
Always welcome
I have a question, how did you get the Greaves? I haven't been able to find a way to farm it.
I crafted them with abyss tokens from completing open world dungeon contracts.
@@FakeUni Sorry, I thought you had the Shock Commander Greaves. I’ve been try to find a way to farm it, but it looks like it only drops from World Boss
When you convert a trait do you lose levels in the trait converted
Yes
question: whats the. most efficient way to trait dungeon weapons?
Check the AH, or unlock how he showed on the video.
I got burned so hard on the random conversion. 3 rolls and missed the highest probability one everytime
Converting a lvl3 trait, does it convert to level 1/3?
Why endurance over evasion? Genuinely asking
from what i read the ah is cross server. So all the prices are the same. Prices are crashing big time because of bots
Yeah. The bots are going crazy.
After using a trait conversion stone, will i still be able to extract the new trait?
auction house is across servers
I see many guides saying you should go for the Evasion traits but also heard a few people endurance is going to be better lategame. Can anyone explain which is actually best and in what way they differ?
As i know (im kinda new too) endurance is better for now, bcause eva best items are under unrealeased content and maybe cant be farmed as casuals...smthing about arch bosses or stuff like that 😅
melee evasion is soooo goated thooo
Until everyone has tons of hit
for the best result Do I have to unlock 3 slot of my trait before roll one of them for changing the trait?
it depends on which traits you have on your gear. if the item is already traited with two bad ones, considering three are good and three are bad (normally, not always), it has a 3/4 chance of the roll be a decent trait. If you already got two good ones, the chance of getting the third good trait it's 1/4. In fact, traits have different % of dropping, so this is not exactly precise, but works as a general idea.
How do you get them common trait unlockstone bundle? i dont have them on my craft
This game is F2P you don't need to buy anything for real money here . Everything is optainable in game by grinding
Now you need 300 unlock stone total. They greedy and try to force pay to win or next year you’ll have it free to play.
informative
what is his server and region? early NA? prices of shock helmet on eu normal server are like 2-3k/trait and 3,2k for lito damn
Why do you want endurance? Im so confused on the endurance evasion thing
Endurance is reduce the chance of getting hit by a critical hit! If the enemy has 500 critical hit rate and you have 500 endurance they never going to crit hit you!
Why did you not reroll the trait?
Lantern Seed Festival gave me 5 trait unlock stones as a "Lucky Reward" dunno how rare it is tho
Can I use Extract to UNLOCK trait or only for upgrading already unlocked trait?
If the item is exactly the same then YES! For example you have 2 shock commander helmet. First with meele endurance, the second with ranged endurance. If you "forge" it together you can have both traits in one gear at lv1. Which is usually 40 points.
"unlock trait selectively" doesnt show up for me.... what am i supposed to do?
I cant check cause maintenance and all but i have never seen the options you have there for trait reworking on Ps5 ,what or how am i missing this?
work only on epic gear.
the trick to trait stones is don't use em
Server?
the option to use unlockstones doesn’t show up on console, any ps5 players been able to use their stones?
On Xbox you press 'X' while in the trait window I believe. So there's likely another input for PS5.
Can you convert a trait that's maxxed out? Seems like it would save a LOT more to find a worthless trait, throw it on there, then max it out and then convert it since it takes a fraction of the stones.
No it will go back to lvl 1 trait
Do armor only need 50 trait unlockstone to unlock trait? Because in my toublek bow i need 100. I messed up using 100 trait unlockstone for heavy attack chance. Should have used it on rarer armor traits.

This makes me realise the game is no where near as p2w as I thought. You can save the unlock stones after you get a good drop
@@thevalorantguy8615 nah there are like 8-14 traits you need to unlock in most builds that are mega expensive not nearly enough traitunlock stones for that they really just help with 1 item or 2.

Traiting blues fully maxing out blessing then converting into purple gear is by far the best way to get what you need for traits.
I used them on the blues i didnt have the info :D
Weird, it costs 100 stoned to unlock a trait for me
Why do you have 50 for unlockstone cost where mine are 100?
For weapon is a 100 the change.
I dont know why but at my Server it costs 100 traitstones
toublek or karnix? im so fking undecided :/
I tried to pause the video after immediately opening the tab... all i heard in the 0:01 seconds is "SEX"
why is it asking for 100 Trait Unlockstone to me but only 50 to you?
50 for armor..100 for weapon
I think it's ridiculous that people even mark it that high like 3-5k I can understand but anything above that is just stupid
It's because the supply of an item is limited. Making it even more rare since it one of the first few to hit the servers. So people pay premium prices to get these things.
This doesn’t work for console players yet
MMM SACKS!!
HI
HELLO
So like 10 different systems. And all take grinding of grinding of grinding... Gearing in this game is horrible
For the weekly reward the conversion stones are far more valuable than unlock stones conversions are far harder to get
(Rng carried) lol
I mean total useless doing this u will not finish before new gear is coming and in fact there is nothing to use the gear for if ur done. Just a waste the hole Game 😅
why you so sad bro? shiii trill game life
Im running staff/dagger, where can I find out what my best in slot items are?
