How to gear and use your alts efficiently (Lost Ark Alt Guide/Overview/Tips)

so you want more gold silver honing materials and owner reputations i know don't worry about it i got you hey everyone i'm barkley let's talk about alts so first up why would you want an old character lost arc is a game where there's diminishing returns on the efficiency of your time spent on one character so the main reason to make it all is to speed up the grind and smooth out progression getting started is simple after you get your all to level 50 which in most cases will be from the power pass with the knowledge passed in your stronghold you can start doing your dailies but before that if you have a character in tier 2 or 3 make sure you have the stronghold honing research this will reduce the amount of honing exp needed and increase the chance of an upgrade by 20 if you're still in tier one you'll use your alts to push you to tier two then get the research going before focusing on your alts and keep in mind that if you've done the tower on one character the next time you do it you get honing materials this will make up for the fact that you can't go back and do the island quest again now what content should you be doing on your alts you'll still want to do your two daily chaos dungeons two guardian raids and your three una task chaos dungeons give silver gold and honing materials that's the same i handle guardian raids differently for guardian raids on my main i always go for the highest level i can because the higher the guardian rate the more materials you get but on alts especially in tier 1 and 2 where the guardian fights are longer i'm going for efficiency there are some fights that are way more troublesome and longer than others i try to avoid those the guardian raids are broken up by raid levels so let's take a look at which fights i pick for each raid level parade level 1 i'm running lumerous or ligorios vertis has more mechanics the fight is longer and is way more unreliable if you're using matchmaking earned nail is easy but it's only worth running if you don't have the item level for the others for raid level 2 i'm sticking with qrmanium simple and easy fight nocrecenter isn't a bad pick here either but the problem with the other two is that they have mechanics that slow down the fight raid level 3 is my least favorite i'm running dark ligorios until calvinsis the dark ligorio's fight isn't bad it's really simple but the travel time getting to him is annoying calvin's is another easy fight that you get access to at 880. the map isn't as big but pug groups seem to be hit or miss with this guy the other two guardians i can't trust matchmaking for them and i find them more troublesome to solo raid level 4 is a toss-up after you get the mechanics down the last three are pretty simple levenose is the easiest for me lava chromanium isn't difficult but sometimes he decides to be oddly mobile for a turtle albert hasig has a lot of mechanics but if you're comfortable with him it has low hp so you can usually burn him down pretty quick for a level 5 egg correction is the easiest but since i'm stopping my offset 1325 for a bit i'm picking armored narcincenia in this term i'm going for the highest guardian i can because the value of the materials are so high overall these are the guardians that work best for me and cut down the amount of time i need to spend on alts by a good amount another easy alternative is to take turns on carrying alts through guardian raids with a friend now moving into your una dailies these can be broken up into three groups based on reward types honing materials reputations and silver so for your main character you're always going to want to do leap stone dailies so with your alts you need to figure out the other things you want to do in most cases unless you're bottlenecked by leap stones on your own you don't want to mindlessly do leaf stone quests because you can now use these characters to push horizontal progression for example you have quests like repairing the seal site and whispering minuet that give you skill points these reputations can also give giants hearts and virtue points there's enough good reputations to dedicate an entire video to so i won't cover them all here but you get where i'm coming from and silver income is a very big part of your upgrading cycle in tier three chaos dungeons help but if you combine upgrading your gear with adventure tone completion and re-rolling gyms you'll be running out very fast low paying island dailies are the main choice for silver the amount of silver you get scales off your item level so you'll get the most value out of doing them on your tier three characters to speed up uniques don't forget to use your bifrost if you have the crystalline aura going in a level 60 roster you'll have a total of four saved locations which is more than enough you can easily make it work with three and even two but the more the merrier and if you do have four in total i've been using mine for a quick way to jump to zones for wandering merchants like bert mack jeffrey and oliver and my last tip for the dailies is that you don't have to do them every day it's obviously better if you do but if you let the rest bonus do its work you're still making progress if you end up burning yourself out none of this will matter some people don't understand that but this isn't the time or place for this conversation the weekly owner quests aren't as time consuming you can complete the chaos dungeon and guardian raid weekly while doing your usual daily routine and for my third weekly if i don't like pvping on the character i usually just run the boss rush one like this you can knock out your weeklies with a small amount of effort on the topic of weekly content don't forget to do your weekly abyssal dungeons these are great for gold generation and can give you legendary card drops that'll be big if you do manage to have better look than me you can get gold from these on up to six characters if i have two characters in the same tier i use the item level requirement for the first abyssal dungeon as a stopping point for one adults for example the first dungeon has an item level requirement of 340. tier two's first dungeon is eight forty tier three is thirteen twenty five this way i don't slow down gearing them both trying to feed them equally if you put all of this information together you can form a gameplay loop for your alt that turns into something like this boost characters to 302 get them to 340 for the first abyssal dungeon if your main is tier one funnel material to them if not use them to get characters of tier 2 through the rowan del quest line or knowledge pass it at 460 phantom palace also opens up at 460. do the shades fire tower whenever you can all while doing your main set of dailies you do this until you hit tier 2 at 600 you go to the great castle repeat a similar thing at tier 2 get to 8 40 for the arc of arrogance dungeon at 960 due phaeton the sea of ambulance opens up in 960 as well face fire tower for the extra materials at 1100 you go to punica you'll continue this cycle until you get to your desired item level but there's no tier three tower there isn't as much money to be made in tier one and two anymore so i only sell materials after i get my alts through a tier you want to get out of those tiers as soon as possible to make the tier 3 money and funnel materials to your main to get to 1385 faster i'm stopping my alts at 1325 right now until i get my main to 1385 for the stronghold research for tier three after that i'll push them to 1340 and with that you're good to go thank you guys for watching if you enjoyed the video or found it helpful do me a favor leave a comment and like the video subscribe to the channel it all helps with the
