gear progression lost ark
Gear progression in Lost Ark is a crucial aspect of endgame content, ensuring your character becomes stronger to tackle higher-tier raids and dungeons. Heres a breakdown of the gear progression system: Early Game (Level 1-50) Story Gear: While leveling, youll get basic gear from quests and dungeons. No Upgrading Needed: Just equip the highest item-level gear you find. Tier 1 (Item Level 250-600) Chaos Dungeons & Guardian Raids: Farm these to get T1 gear (302-600 ilvl). Gear Honing: Use Harmony Shards, Destruction/Guardian Stones, and Leapstones to upgrade gear at the Honest NPC. Abyss Dungeons: Complete these for better gear (e.g., Epic gear from Demon Beast Canyon). Final Goal: Reach ilvl 600 to move to Tier 2. Tier 2 (Item Level 802-1100) New Chaos Dungeons & Guardians: Farm for T2 gear (802-1100 ilvl). Honing Materials: Now requires Life Shards, Greater Stones, and Honor Leapstones. Abyss Dungeons: Run Airas Oculus and Orehas Well for better gear. Final Goal: Reach ilvl 1100 to enter Tier 3. Tier 3 (Item Level 1300+) Chaos Dungeons & Guardians: Farm for T3 gear (1300+ ilvl). Honing Materials: Requires Honor Shards, Destruction/Guardian Crystals, and Great Honor Leapstones. Abyss Dungeons & Legion Raids: - Argos (1370+) - Valtan (1415+) - Vykas (1430+) - Brelshaza (1490+) - Kayangel (1540+) - Akkan (1580+) Relic & Ancient Gear: Obtainable from Legion Raids (e.g., Vykas drops Relic gear). Set Bonuses: Equip 6-piece relic sets for powerful bonuses. Endgame (1540+) Ancient Gear: From Brelshaza (1490+) and Akkan (1580+). Elixirs & Esthers: Additional power systems beyond gear. Honing Becomes Expensive: Requires Solar materials, Gold, and Pheons. Thaemine & Future Raids: The highest-tier content (1620+). Key Gear Progression Tips: Focus on Honing Prioritize weapon first for max DPS. Daily/Weekly Content Chaos Dungeons, Guardians, and Raids are essential for materials. Engravings & Gems Optimize your build with proper engravings and gems. Pheons Usage Be careful when buying gear from Auction House (Pheons cost gold). Stronghold Research Reduces honing costs for alts. Alts Help Use alts to farm extra materials for your main. Final Notes: Gear Transfer: When moving between tiers, transfer your honing levels to new gear. Quality & Re-rolling: Improve gear quality (e.g., weapon quality affects damage). Gold Sink: Endgame honing is expensive, so manage gold wisely. Would you like a more detailed guide on a specific tier or honing strategy?
