Demonic Impulse is a favorite for demon builds, allowing you to bypass the 30-second wait period between each transformation. The increased critical chance buff also enhances the strength of your abilities while in demon f

The Bard's Identity Skill is Serenade. You earn Serenade Bars during combat for hitting attack abilities, and each activation of a Serenade consumes one bar. You can stack up to three bars at the same t

If you like Monster Hunter or any boss-hunting game modes in MMOs, Guardian Raids are for you. You and up to three other players will hunt down a deadly boss for rewards. They're varied, rewarding, and fairly quick to complete if you have a good team. Let's dive into what Guardian Raids work, how to unlock them, and some of the rewards you can expect to earn.

The Sharpshooter, like other Gunner classes, likes Crit damage, especially with the build above. At level 3, Keen Blunt Weapon provides a boost of 50% crit damage. That's massive.

Loyal Companion

If you've got the space for a fifth Engraving (you won't at the start, check out our Engravings guide if you need more info on that) then grab the other Sharpshooter class Engraving, Loyal Companion. It provides a solid boost to your Hawk gauge (+30%) as well as extra movement speed and damage.

We're going to provide a very simple PvE skill build here for the Berserker - just something to help you get started. We'll cover these in more depth in our PvE, PvP, and general Berserker build guides. This doesn't reflect the Mayhem build in particular. That will be detailed separat

Guardian Raids allow you to harvest a Guardian's soul upon completing, granting you a shower of loot. You can only harvest a Guardian's soul twice per day per character. Similar to Chaos Dungeons, it's possible to farm Guardian Raids more than twice per day, but your subsequent clears won't give as much loot unit the weekly reset.

When your recovery effect ends, an additional effect is activated which recovers 24% of your max HP.

As you are mostly focusing on the support side of things with bard, The Song of Courage, then you want to go for the Desperate Salvation Engraving. This boosts your healing effect after the initial burst, as well as provides you with some of your own sustainability. Bards are squishy. Staying alive longer in the fighter will benefit you, and therefore benefit your t

The Sharpshooter is a reliable Raid class because of its very high-power damage output. You want to focus on a set of skills that revolve around Snipe, which is a massive burst damage ability that can be used to delete Raid bosses. Arrow Wave, Atomic Arrow, and Charged Shot are all important . Here's a closer look at the ideal Raid build for 240-250 skill points (beginner level.)

Progressing through Lost Ark's endgame is no easy task. A plethora of activities and progression systems can confuse newcomers and downright frustrate veterans. Fortunately, one of the most reliable sources of jewelry and upgrade materials is Guardian Raids, one of Lost Ark's staple endgame activities.

Grudge is almost a must-have for any PvE role, and a must-have if you are playing Striker as a PvE class. It increases damage by 20 percent to Boss level or above monsters, while also reducing incoming damage by 20 perc

As for defeating the boss, your group will need to coordinate to counter the Guardian's mechanics and beat the boss. The first tier of Guardians is fairly simple, utilizing high-damage attacks and very simple mechanics to ease you into the game type. Further tiers involve buff and debuff management, one-shot mechanics, and more. Be sure that your team is prepared before diving into the later tiers of Guardian Raids. Once the boss is slain, you'll be able to harvest its soul to claim your loot.

Later, once you start dishing out stats between different pieces of gear, you want Crit as primary and Specialization as secondary, just to get your Hawk up again and provide debuffs/damage. We cover this in more detail in our Sharpshooter Raid build.

Normal and Intrude skills can all be upgraded with Tripods , passive bonuses you select from the skill menu. Investing points into a skill will unlock Tripod slots. As the name implies, supported skills can only use three Tripod upgrades at a time—one from each Tripod t

The Bard is one of Lost Ark's dedicated support characters and is usually the top choice for a dedicated support in both PvE and PvP, although the Paladin (and in the future, the Artist) see play as well. This class provides all sorts of buffs to the party, including damage reduction, damage increases, and various other bu

Hunts will vary depending on the Guardian you're facing, but most hunts consist of finding the boss and defeating the boss. Before you begin, you'll be given the option to harvest the boss' soul or not. Doing so will give you much more loot, but you can only do this twice per day (ignoring the catch-up mechanic). In-Anime Game Missions, your first task is to find the boss. Finding the boss is significantly easier if you bring flares, a battle item that will reveal the location of the boss on your map for a short time. You can craft them at your stronghold.
