It was doing that last night as well, it was close to 8 by the time I got on and then had a queue of about 8000. I got fed up waiting and called it quits.

It does not particulary mean that the server queues are full. Had the same when I launched Lost Ark today. Needed to start the game 5 times until I came into the Server Selection screen. And no queue on Procyon.

Right now I have friends in game on Procyon, friends in queue for Procyon (placed 8000+), then me and another chap cant even reach the queue.

Their own server status page for Central Europe shows they're at capacity

Yes, I was facing the same issue yesterday. But after opening the game 6-10 times it finally got me in, surprising without even a queue.

Oh what a beautiful scene

It took me an hour and a half to get through the queue tonight and by that time I'd lost the will. Just grabbed the login reward and left again.

I'm having a blast. Asside from helping with my weight loss, being able to stay ingame pretty much for 5 days straight when I wasn't sleeping or cooking are the only benefits I've seen to catching COVID-19.

If I recall correctly, I logged out at lvl 36 and Stronghold (KatzsDeli) at lvl 7. So far, only running the one toon, PunkyShootster.

If I'm not mistaken, there's a password for new members to join the guild. I haven't checked to see if it's posted elsewhere, but it should be mentioned here, as well.

I started playing a few days ago and have been hooked. Is anyone from the US playing on the Procyon server? EU servers tend to give me so much lag its hard to play on them.

In the US I'm playing on the Kharmine server. No que.

I'll roll up a toon on Procyon and try it as I'd rather reroll and play with all of you.

EDIT: I've been playing most of the morning on Procyon. Doesn't seem to be any lag issue at all.

Just hit Level 50 after 68 hours of play time on Steam. That also including a lot of afk and queue time.

Grats!

My wife and I have just begun playing the game, but haven't gotten far yet due to time constraints). However, I'm going back and forth whether to continue playing as a BERSERKER or PALADIN and would love your thoughts/feedback on the what I should play.

Some initial information:

• My wife always plays the healer, so naturally she's playing a BARD character.
• Normally I'd play a tank to go along with her (easy to get into groups that way with both a tank+healer together), but I just don't care for the Gunlancer in this game.
• I still want something more on the side of being "tanky" so I looked at the other warrior classes.
• We will always be grouped together and hardly playing separate if at all with our characters.

I've tested both the Berserker and Paladin in the initial start of the game and find myself drawn more towards the Paladin (this is the class I'd play if I was in WOW), but as another supposedly healer class I didn't think it would be good to run two healer classes. Unfortunately, I feel like the initial test area doesn't allow you to try out everything on each specialized class due to the other skill enhancements you can do along the way.

So the question is, can the Paladin be skilled up in a way to still do a bit of damage? Or would it be better to stick with the Berserker as a better companion to the Bard?

Yes he can. Paladin can deal massive AoE Damage if skilled so.

The thing about Lost Ark is that there is no real Tank or Healer class. While Paladin and Bard both see themselves in a support role, and them massively wanted in bigger endgame content, that is not their sole purpose. You can technically do everything with 100% pure DPS cannon ball classes. And then again, there are subtle differences to these classes. AoE or Single Target? More mobility or more survivability?

I found this map for tier mats on islands maybe it'll help someone else as well.

I didn't realize this at first. Just so everyone is aware, you get some freebies by linking your Amazon account and Steam account. You have to go into Amazon and claim it, but it looks like there may be more to claim down the line.

Just a heads up on something I didn't realize. Once you hit Gear Lvl 600, you can buy the T2 armor dirt cheap, (whole set 50g) which is lvl 802 but only has a lvl 600 restriction. From what I understand you don't have to be worried about quality as you will not be in this set for very long. Buying it and transferring your T1 armor will take you immediately to lvl 802+ depending how tricked out your T1 armor is. With the blue stones I had been gathering the whole time, I was able to upgrade from 600 to 1000 almost instantly.
