I'm back from Lost Ark

[Theodric]

Yeah, Lost Ark actively encourages people to invest in multiple characters but it's very generous in terms of allowing people to have the tools to catch up with a second or even third character even if they tire of their 'main' or the initial class they chose doesn't click as well as they thought it would.

When the novelty of playing a berserker wore off for me, I decided to play something a little more twitchy - and settled on a deadeye. I caught up to my main character quite quickly and now consider my deadeye to be my new main character.

if lost ark is so much better why come back?

Hi, who are you? Also FFXIV's encounters aren't even that good when WoW is literally right there.

As a sorceress main, were we playing the same game?

You literally could get two free powerpasses to boost two alt characters to tier 1, PLUS there was the knowledge* transfer system to boost more, and now they added another free ilvl 960 (tier 2) powerpass to the game. What do you even mean "+50 hours"?

If i remember right when i stopped playing Lost Ark over 1 month ago, i never got powerpass when i don't know where to get them and i don't have any idea what knowledge transfer system is.

By +50 hours i mean leveling new character from level 1 to 60 by doing main story, just like it took leveling my first character.

Also yes, i know i'm the worst player in Lost Ark when even after around 120 hours i'm still stuck at tear 1 with was it 400-450 item level gear, i'm stuck at certain point of main story when i have really hard time to kill enemies and abyssal dungeons are way too hard for me and it took me like +4 hours just to complete very first tier 1 abyssal dungeon and i never able to complete the second tier 1 abyssal dungeon when it's simply too hard for me.

You clearly haven't experienced the FFXIV encounters people talk about then, Ultimates > Mythic raiding.

If you want to still feel like you're in Lost Ark, I'd recommend going to Pyros, 3rd Eureka island. Bunny fates are farmed by packs of bots, this'll make you feel right at home.

Glad you found a game you enjoy. I hope it continues to do so for you.

Lost Ark combat is way more fun than FF14 because unlike FF14 they did not dumb down jobs. FF14 is carried by its encounters. If FF14 didn't have good encounter design it'll be a supremely boring game.

Lost Ark is such a bad game. I can't believe people like that BDO clone!

Huge Diablo fan, though. Does it feel like Diablo as others have said?

Gameplay-wise, Lost Ark is far better than Diablo, both in terms of fight design and combat rotations. Progression-wise? That's more arguable, but there's certainly a lot more side-content, at least.

I've done my share of savage, extremes, and I've admittedly not touched Ultimate because FFXIV's gameplay loop doesn't hold me like that. I'm playing FFXIV, at the moment, because it's not an aggressive time vampire that has a 30-step long checklist for me to do even basic endgame content.

Also, FFXIV's encounter design is constricted based on how sluggish the game is, where WoW's encounter design is much more freeform due to the gameplay being crisp and snappy.
