[Lost Ark] Bard Basic Guide | Combat Status | Skill Setting | Engraving Setting |

hey all welcome to my guide for B the first support class in Lost Arc this is a beginner level guide video for new players who just got into the game or old players who wants to better their performance why play Bard Bard is a perfect match for those who want to play a critical role in completing the raid like any other RPGs we lack supports and they're essential to clear the raid so you will always be welcomed in the party unless you have a big problem in your settings and equip ments B has abilities to protect heal and damage boost her party members especially she is a high-risk High return class when compared to other Support classes in the game your choices and judgments will matter in the game as bad specialize in some traits she is not an all- round player she can either choose to get as defensive as she can or as aggressive as she can so you will be rewarded with a lot of efficacy when you play her well but that means you will have tons of things to consider to reach for her full potential and it means you will be hella busy during the combat it also means that you will need to purchase and set up several presets and settings for high aims but I can assure you that if you are one of those folks who love to play support B seeks high potential instead of boring clicks and Taps she is just the right choice for you settings combat status bad has two choices swiftness or specialization swiftness lets her move and cast skills faster and reduces skill cooldowns specialization increases her identity skills to heal and damage boost the party but it is much better as a support to reduce coold down and move fast so that you can offer your party members with endless protection and damage boosts I would only recommend you to choose specialization if you have all level 10 gems that reduces skill cool down and if you are an estatic party swiftness B outplays specialization Bard in utility and convenience so please refrain from choosing spec B unless you're going to make b as your main character you are willing to invest with 8 10 level cool down gems and your static member wants the thick damage boost that only spec bar can offer setting skills we can divide B skills with these categories serenade skill Awakening skill brand skill Dam damage boost skill shield and protection skill serenade meter fillers and other utility skills the biggest advantage of bad is that she can flexibly choose from a number of skill and Engraving settings to specialize in certain traits so by switching play Styles though it is a small change you would not find it too repetitive and boring in the same time ironically this is also her biggest disadvantage there is no such one Universial setting for her so she has to pay extra gold and crystals to unlock presets and swap accessories and gems good news is that only few of them are optional ones that depends on your choices others will be the same throughout all settings first serenade skills these two skills are there for you in the first placees it is the identity in the core of the blast design the one on the left is serenade of Courage that increases your party's damage the other one on the right is serenade of Salvation that heals your party to use these skills you need what we call bubbles bubbles are these three identity gauge bares in the center and are also called a serenade meter when you hit your enemies with your skills these bubbles will fill up and be colored in blue and your serenade skills will consume all of your filled bubbles incomplete bubbles in yellow color will not be consumed second Awakening skill all glasses in Lost Arc has two Awakening skills supports in particular has one support skill and one damage skill B support Awakening skill is Symphonia this gives huge amount of Shield that lasts for 10 seconds to all party members within 24 M and fills one [Music] bubble it also inflicts these utility deduction to the enemies hit by this skill although it is not as substantial as the shield and bubble this is because all bosses will be immune to the attack and move speed reduction and because the skill gives your party excessive amount of Shield so the attack power reduction does not quite matter but it may matter to the other party as they will take 30% less [Music] [Music] damage B dealing Awakening skill is oratorio this is not used in party plays so you will not need to know that much but it is a dealing skill that BS may use in Solo plays to deal and increase her chances to hit a critical [Music] attack third brand skills these skills in buo brands that lets your party damage 10% more to the Target 10% is huge and thus it is super important for you to make sure that this branding does not cut off during combat you can check the status of your branding with two ways you can either look above the bus's head for a note icon or you can look below the boss's health bar for this red icon here are three skills that most of the BS use you choose two or one of them there are also three more skills that does have branding effects but we either do not use them or we Ed them for other [Music] purposes B [Music] for fourth damage boost skills these two skills are essential skills the BS use in all raids it increases all party members attack power depending on B's attack [Music] power [Music] [Music] [Music] this fifth shield and protection these skills protect you and your party members with shields and incoming damage reductions [Music] [Music] s [Music] [Music] serenade meter fillers these skills considerably fills your [Music] bubbles [Music] [Music] oh other utility skills these skills are used for stagger or counter [Music] [Music] gimmicks now I'll suggest you some skill [Music] settings Symphonia Heavenly tune Sonic vibration Guardian tune Wind of music and Prelude of storm are your essential skills that you're always going to take with you throughout ball raids similarly you are also going to always take brand skills with you but you will choose one or two from Sound Shock half of Rhythm and sonatina then you will have one to two space left so you will take either Rhythm buck shot stigma rap city of light or sound holic with you these are the skill presets I use notice that I first chose what my main branding skill is and then checked whether I needed a backup branding skill in case I missed the skill or got canceled then I filled left spaces in with optional skills before you enter the raid you should ask yourself whether a failure of certain patterns lead to raid wipe or deaths if not just go with the serenade meter setting if the raid is somewhat difficult then think of what utility you need to bring among stagger counter destruction and protection if the raid is very challenging to the point you need to bring two utilities then take one brand skill intad of two and pick between Stag and save setting or save and counter setting setting Engravings B has a lot of options to choose from when it comes to Engravings some of them are essential and some of them are optional you will always need to include the essential Engravings and then choose from the optional ones let's look at the essential ones Awakening is an essential engraving that all supports take with them it dramatically reduces Awakening skill cool down and gives extra chances to use them you must fully activate the engraving with level three desperate salvation is a bad class exclusive engraving that increases her identity skill named serenade of Salvation it lets you give big heal when your healing identity skill ends it is her main source of healing so please make sure you fully activate the EMB rving expert is another engraving that increases your ability to heal and shield you in your party most of the dealers Engravings have penalties to increase their deal like more damage taken and less healing received so again make sure you master this engraving the last essential engraving is heavy armor this engraving lets you tank damages from enemies and bosses it is super important for supports to survive the raave for the safety of the dealers Bar's glass design requires her to stay near the boss to hit her skills and fill her identity gauge so her postition is too risky to go without this engraving so if you are a beginner level Bard fully activate heavy armor with level three but if you are a veteran player who are confident to Dodge Boss attacks you can choose to activate level one or two now let's dive into the optional ones depending on your setting you are going to choose one or two from these Engravings Max m P increase literally increases your max Mana because bad has big Mana consumption and short skill cooldowns you will be find yourself doing nothing and waiting for Mana to recover if you do not take this engraving with you so you will need to choose this engraving as far as you can say that you do not find yourself doing nothing and waiting for your Mana to recover during combat but in certain occasions you will have no choice but to replace this engraving since it demands High stacker and surv in this case you could use Manor related runes bracelets Elixir and food to make up for the reduced Max MP vital Point hereit increases your ability to stagger the boss there will always be a stagger gauge or gimmick in every raids so this engraving lets you carry the raid with high stagger abilities and let other party members to save their skills for damage depending on the raid and the team comp you may either take this engraving with you or not Spirit absorption is increases your move and attack speed this is an engraving that spec bars use to make up for their low swiftness stat you will either use level two or level three depending on your level of heavy armor and graving crisis evasion is the last option the B seldom uses it lets you survive from Fatal damage that would have kill you otherwise unless you are in an experienced reclear party your DPS would not be able to survive and clear the raid without you so your death is almost equal to another try so it is crucial for you to stay alive throughout the game and this engraving is an insurance backup plan for those unwanted mistakes unlike other Engravings you will only need to activate level one since it is not worth it to master this engraving and you will not be able to find enough spare space to use this engraving unless you level your gear up over 1540 set Engravings continued if you are using Express events engraving support or if you are a newbie under gear level 1540 using Relic accessories you have two options your main setting will be the one with Max MP increase as BS always suffocate with Mana shortage so you should choose the latter one with vital Point hit only if your team comp sucks in stagger but the raid requires High stagger now if you are the bad expert and you are over 1540 and are able to buy ancient accessories you have a lot of options if you really able to survive and don't Dodge bosses attacks and have high aims to be an all- round player then here's the setting for you you will only take level one heavy armor with you and instead use both Max MP increase and vital Point hit I really recommend this one as it is the most universal setting for BS in all raids but if you are afraid of dying which is definitely normal and fine then here are some options for you but in this case you are either going to give up mana or high stagger if you think the crisis evasion is not necessary then consider this setting you will already have maximum move speed as full Swift B but you will not have maximum attack speed without Heavenly Tunes bath so Spirit absorption will make up for this so that you don't get cancelled when casting your skills the last two option is mainly for the full spec bars I am sure that you now know how to choose from Max MP increase and vital Point hit all you now need to consider is whether you need level one heavy armor or two if you are confident in survival then choose level one heavy armor and level three Spirit absorption if not choose level two heavy armor and level two spirit absorption finally I will now show you some list of combinations of skill settings and Engraving settings I wrote down some explanation and what raid gate I personally have been or will use it in so pause if you need to look into [Music] it thanks for watching and I hope to see you in Ara
