| 0s | Hey, everyone. It's Stoopzz. |
|---|---|
| 2s | I just wanted to thank you all so much for watching. |
| 4s | But also I wanted to use this as an opportunity to talk about something a little bit more important. |
| 9s | And that's the sense of having a strong community in an MMORPG. |
| 12s | You know, some of my best friends have come through Lost Ark and I still think the genre of MMORPGs is the best avenue for that. |
| 19s | And I know with Lost Ark there's so much going on, there's so much to do, but there's going to be a lot of players coming back and returning to the game with all the events taking place this summer. |
| 29s | And I think spending a couple of minutes here and there helping them out can really make the world of difference for them. |
| 35s | So yeah, I hope this message finds you guys well and I hope you enjoy the rest of the episodes. |
| 46s | Coming to you from the Amazon Games Community team. |
| 49s | It's the Lost Ark Academy Debate Club! |
| 52s | With your host, straight out of the rocks box, it's Roxx! |
| 63s | Welcome to the Lost Ark Academy Debate Club. |
| 67s | This is where our contestants debate to prove they have what it takes not to be a Mokoko. |
| 72s | I'm Roxx and I'm here to make sure things stay exciting. |
| 79s | Let's start our show. |
| 80s | First up today, we have Bobajenny. |
| 86s | Welcome. |
| 87s | Next up, we have Stoopzz. |
| 90s | I'm back. |
| 92s | All right. |
| 93s | What an entrance. |
| 94s | Next up, we have Grenton. |
| 96s | And you've got a little gift there. |
| 100s | Very nice. |
| 101s | Oh. |
| 102s | Finally, we're bringing out DatModz. |
| 110s | All right, we're ready. |
| 111s | We're ready. |
| 113s | We're going to kick off our warm-up debate. |
| 115s | Remember, this is a two versus two. |
| 117s | There are no rules. |
| 118s | Yell over each other all you want. |
| 120s | The teams are as separated. |
| 122s | Bobajenny and Stoopzz, Grenton and DatModz. The teams are as separated. |
| 122s | Bobajenny and Stoopzz, Grenton and DatModz. |
| 124s | Today, we are going to be arguing which one is better: Cardinal Directions or x3. |
| 131s | You two closest to me will take x3. |
| 134s | You two will take Cardinal Directions, and I'll give everyone a minute to strategize starting... |
| 139s | now. |
| 140s | All right. |
| 141s | We got the harder one. |
| 143s | I think x3 is easier. |
| 144s | X3 is easier. |
| 145s | You can do x3 + 1. |
| 146s | Got to say, north west. |
| 149s | Today we have a very special guest. |
| 151s | Very special. |
| 157s | It's me. |
| 157s | I'm the special guest. |
| 159s | So Roxx, I think we know who you are by now. |
| 162s | What would you say you do here when you're not doing all of this? |
| 167s | Most of you know me as the Community Manager of Lost Ark. |
| 170s | That means I'm often the person interfacing with players in our channels, sharing your feedback with the team, and working to facilitate communication between players in the parts of the Lost Ark team that you don't get to see. |
| 181s | And when you're not doing all of that? |
| 183s | The rest of the time I get to do weird s$#t like this. |
| 187s | I certainly can't complain, and neither can she. |
| 191s | I. |
| 192s | We? |
| 194s | That's enough alt-existentialism for one day. |
| 196s | Now, go do your Lo-Pangs for us. |
| 199s | Fine. |
| 203s | All right. |
| 204s | Shockingly, everyone is ready early, so we're going to go right ahead. |
| 208s | Debaters, do whatever you want to do. |
| 212s | Okay. |
| 213s | Listen up here. |
| 214s | But listen up! |
| 216s | Hold on, hold on, hold on!. |
| 217s | I take it back. |
| 217s | Don't do whatever you want to do. |
| 218s | Okay. |
| 220s | North east south west makes more sense because everyone knows to go north east south west. |
| 225s | Everyone nowadays in the digital era, they don't have clocks when they look down at their new smartwatch. |
| 233s | It just says a number. |
| 234s | It's okay. It just says a number. |
| 235s | It's okay. |
| 235s | When my... |
| 235s | when my group was doing Brel, you think, Oh, you guys didn't clear Gate 6? |
| 238s | Yeah, because no one in my group knows how to read a clock. |
| 240s | They have to take a second monitor and put a clock on it. |
| 243s | That's why they didn't clear it! |
| 243s | Two things here. |
| 244s | That's why we didn't clear it - because it's x3! |
| 245s | It's garbage. |
| 246s | What if you want someone to go to a specific spot in north east? |
| 249s | Like you don't tell them... |
| 250s | Okay, listen up - I didn't finish my point! |
| 253s | I'm just saying, if you need two people to go to a specific spot. |
| 256s | If you say go, hey, go north east... |
| 258s | which one? |
| 258s | At Brel Gate 1, 1:00? |
| 258s | 2:00? |
| 262s | Also -. |
| 262s | Okay. |
| 263s | Also, who the f^$# uses north east south west? |
| 266s | Okay. |
| 268s | I know for a fact that when you do your learning groups, what do you teach them? |
| 270s | North east south west. |
| 272s | You teach them x3. |
| 274s | It's pretty simple, right? |
| 275s | So if you have a half area, you use north + 1. |
| 279s | Yeah. So if you have a half area, you use north + 1. |
| 279s | Yeah. |
| 279s | So you're like, okay, where am I going to go to? |
| 285s | There are people that are watching this video right now, you know want to teach them the wrong info. |
| 289s | Who says 1 +1? |
| 289s | Literally no one. |
| 291s | I don't know. |
| 291s | DatModz just said it. |
| 292s | Yeah, he just said it. |
| 293s | Yeah. |
| 293s | You guys got shafted on this one. |
| 294s | You guys never do south - 1? |
| 296s | That doesn't make sense. |
| 297s | To be fair, I used to do it on Argos when I first started. |
| 300s | We used to do north east south west. |
| 301s | And then after I progressed through the game, everyone said x3. |
| 304s | So I just follow everyone else. |
| 305s | So you're a sheep. |
| 305s | Well, the point of it is, is to have consistency amongst groups when you're pugging. |
| 308s | That's a bold way of saying sheep. |
| 310s | Yeah but the thing is... |
| 311s | I mean, when you do stars, what do you say? |
| 312s | I have no friends. |
| 312s | What do they use? |
| 313s | I'm a reaper player. |
| 314s | North east south west. |
| 315s | You're lying to me right now, I can see it in your eyes. |
| 317s | I've never lied in my entire life. |
| 318s | You're lying to me. |
| 318s | I think a lot of people don't know basic multiplication. |
| 321s | So it's too confusing. |
| 323s | They should know basic multiplication. |
| 324s | Why do you think they take 12 hours? |
| 325s | Because it's x3. Why do you think they take 12 hours? |
| 326s | Because it's x3. |
| 326s | You say 11:00. |
| 327s | How about this? |
| 328s | When you're doing meteor drops and you go, what do you say? |
| 332s | South - 1. |
| 332s | No, no, no, no, no. |
| 334s | You don't go north east, north east, north west! |
| 336s | You say 11, 11. You don't go north east, north east, north west! |
| 336s | You say 11, 11. |
| 338s | You tell them it's 5:00. You say 11, 11. |
| 338s | You tell them it's 5:00. |
| 340s | During lunar groups, I say go 6:00, and they run to 12:00. |
| 344s | No way. |
| 344s | They have digital clocks. |
| 348s | Huh? |
| 350s | This is ridiculous. |
| 353s | Yeah, okay, we're done, we're done. |
| 355s | That's fine. |
| 357s | All right. |
| 358s | I guess that's going to do it for our warm-up debate. |
| 361s | Do you guys feel warmed up ? |
| 363s | I feel like you all just feel angry. |
| 365s | That's good. |
| 366s | Sure. |
| 367s | All right. |
| 367s | We're gonna head to a commercial break. |
| 369s | And when we're back with that, we'll slide right into our serious debate. |
| 373s | We'll see you after this break. |
| 410s | Thank you for clapping for me. |
| 412s | Welcome back to the Lost Ark Academy Debate Club. |
| 414s | And it's time to get very, very serious. |
| 417s | We're so serious here. |
| 418s | All right. |
| 418s | Today's debate topic for you two - Grenton and DatModz: What is the easiest class to play besides Paladin? |
| 429s | I'm giving you extra time to strategize because I know that beside Paladin... |
| 435s | That was my first choice. I'm giving you extra time to strategize because I know that beside Paladin... |
| 435s | That was my first choice. |
| 436s | As per usual, one of you will have one minute to make your first argument. |
| 440s | The other one will have a minute to make an argument. |
| 442s | And then one minute for each of you to respond. |
| 444s | So as always, here's your time to strategize. |
| 447s | Figure it out. |
| 448s | Okay. |
| 451s | He's got notes already. |
| 451s | Besides Paladin, what would either of you pick besides Paladin? |
| 456s | I mean, there are a lot of choices, but you can just pick anything on DatModz' roster. |
| 463s | You're supposed to be strategizing. |
| 465s | He's crying instead. |
| 469s | Yeah I didn't expect to get burned on that. |
| 473s | What are friends for? |
| 476s | I think we can just go into it now. |
| 477s | We're ready. |
| 478s | Before DatModz starts crying. |
| 479s | You feel okay, bud? Before DatModz starts crying. |
| 480s | You feel okay, bud? |
| 481s | My feelings are hurt a little bit, but my ego will recover. |
| 486s | DatModz, I will be giving you the floor first because I feel really, really bad for you after that. |
| 491s | Okay. |
| 492s | You're welcome. |
| 492s | All right. |
| 493s | Your first minute for your argument starts now. |
| 496s | Okay. |
| 497s | So a new player starting the game, there are a few criteria that they're trying to look for. |
| 501s | One, that's a high mobility class, something that's not forgiving, something with good effective health so you don't get one-shot by everything and just die when you get in every Legion Raid and then get kicked out. |
| 511s | So that's why I think Fire Power Artillerist is one of the best new player characters. |
| 517s | It's 50/50 crit swiftness that has mobility there. |
| 520s | You have good stagger, you have good destruction, your abilities are not super... |
| 525s | well, they're really, really forgiving because if you miss some of your bombs or anything else like that, it doesn't matter. |
| 529s | The cooldown drops quick, so you just keep on dropping them. |
| 531s | You also, if you get in trouble and you think are going to knock back on like Brelshaza, you could go into your chair and now it'll make it so you don't get knocked. |
| 538s | So if you don't time stop, you just go into your chair. |
| 540s | That'll give you additional shield and stops you from getting knocked. |
| 543s | So outside of that, yeah, Fire Power Artillerist is honestly just like the perfect class for a new player. |
| 547s | You have your shields, mix all of your different mechanic checks, stagger bonuses, destruction, good mediocre damage. |
| 555s | And then when you decide that you've finally learned enough about the game - That is your one minute. |
| 559s | You go barrage! |
| 561s | Hanging on. |
| 561s | I'm hanging on. |
| 562s | Grenton, your one minute for your starting argument starts now. |
| 566s | So, yeah, you mentioned high mobility, right? |
| 568s | Forgiving class to play? |
| 570s | And good shields? |
| 571s | So a class that does it better than what you're talking about is none other than our good old friend, the Transformation Machinist. |
| 578s | Who says Machinist? |
| 580s | Not you. |
| 580s | You don't say anything. |
| 582s | This is my time. |
| 582s | This is your time. |
| 583s | Keep going. |
| 584s | So you're talking about missing skill shots, right? |
| 586s | Yeah. |
| 586s | Machinist - the cool thing about it is, once you're in your evolution form and you drop out, you retain some of your meter. |
| 593s | So you don't actually have to hit all your skills to get back into your meter. |
| 596s | Not only that, your counter is your biggest damage skill, which means no one expects you to counter. |
| 602s | Right? |
| 602s | And the class also doesn't do any damage. |
| 604s | No one's expecting you to do damage, so you can just enjoy yourself. |
| 607s | Get on the class, have fun, transform, look cool, shoot lasers, and that's it. |
| 611s | It's super easy to play. |
| 613s | You don't have to think about, Oh, well what if this happens? |
| 615s | Or what if that happens? |
| 616s | Because you have a big juicy shield when you're in that when you're in that transformation mode, unlike Artillerist, where, Oh, I'm going to get knocked, I got to get into my my little wheelchair or, oh, I got to do this, I got to shoot this laser and then - going barrage? |
| 629s | Let's be honest, you don't really got to focus on doing damage. |
| 632s | We're talking about easy classes to play here. |
| 634s | It doesn't get easier than our good old friend, the Machinist. |
| 636s | All right, Grenton, that was your minute. DatModz, you have one minute to respond. |
| 641s | Yeah, I think you're... |
| 642s | I think you're right about Machinist. |
| 643s | It is the easiest class to play, because when you go to apply for groups, you're not going to get in any. |
| 649s | And you can easily throw in double sphere, absorption, and run Lo-Pang really, really quickly. |
| 655s | And then one of ... |
| 655s | also your arguments? |
| 656s | You said, Oh, it's forgiving if you.. |
| 658s | once you come out of your shield mode it's easy to restore. |
| 661s | However, it's also kind of squishy and if you deplete that shield because you don't know the encounters, let's say you're on Clown and you hit by some smashes, some debuffs, that shields' depleted and then you have to go through more drone skills to rebuild your meter. |
| 672s | Also, when you go into your scouter form, every single, basically, every single ability has a movement associated to it. |
| 681s | So you have to know when a boss is going to do a swipe attack so they don't get knocked or your damage seal just doesn't go through view that they'll have super armor. |
| 689s | And then other than that, instead of... |
| 690s | it's kind of a lower damage class, you going to need level nine gems to get into the trade. |
| 693s | That's expectation nowadays - not just level seven transformation classes, since you only got... |
| 700s | That is your minute of tearing Grenton apart. |
| 702s | Grenton, you have one minute left to make your final response. |
| 704s | Well, thank you. |
| 705s | Thank you very much for saying that you only need two gems for the class, so it's easier to get set up and get going. |
| 710s | Right? |
| 710s | Because you don't need 11 gems, one damage, one cooldown, and you can just laugh at all your friends who are crying because they gambled the level ten and got another cool down gem and you have to post it on the auction house. |
| 719s | So not only that, super cheap to build, right? |
| 722s | So it's easy to get going and easy to set up in raid, and yeah, the movement skills, you just got to know you're going forwards, you've got... |
| 729s | it's one direction, it's not like other classes in the game - the one I play that goes all over the place. So it's easy to get going and easy to set up in raid, and yeah, the movement skills, you just got to know you're going forwards, you've got... |
| 729s | it's one direction, it's not like other classes in the game - the one I play that goes all over the place. |
| 736s | It's a very easy class. |
| 737s | You just, you just go and do it. |
| 738s | Artillerist, you kind of have to preplan your damage, and you got to make sure that, like you said, you're playing 50/50. |
| 744s | So you want to make... |
| 746s | you're not super fast, you're not super slow, but you're not a Machinist that is just flying around, soaring everywhere. |
| 752s | You barely get hit by mechanics. |
| 754s | And like you said, if you do, you have that big chunky shield and sure, you might drop out early, your skills are back off cooldown anyway. |
| 760s | You'll just get back into that transformation mode. |
| 763s | Time! |
| 763s | All right. |
| 764s | That was your minute as well. |
| 766s | That was the entire debate. |
| 767s | I'm going to bring the spectators over here so we can discuss. |
| 770s | You set me up so well. |
| 771s | All right. |
| 771s | Thank you for joining me. |
| 773s | That was a kind of an interesting debate. |
| 775s | I want to know what you guys thought. |
| 777s | I feel like they said a whole bunch of nothing. |
| 778s | I don't really know what they were talking about. |
| 780s | I think... |
| 781s | I think Grenton watches a lot of Legalia tier list and he put scouter doing zero damage and DatModz was selling me on barraeg. |
| 788s | I'm not sure - what do you think? |
| 790s | I mean, like, I play evolutionary legacy because it is a bit easier. |
| 796s | So you know, I'm a little bit biased on that, but I think they both have pretty valid points. |
| 802s | What are you thinking? |
| 802s | You play Reflux Sorc, right? |
| 804s | Yeah, that was neither of those two classes. |
| 809s | It's okay. |
| 809s | I also played Reflux Sorce so I get it. |
| 812s | I benched it. |
| 812s | But, you know. |
| 814s | I mean, that's fair. |
| 815s | But yeah, I mean, I have my own ideas about this, but neither of them are relevant to Reflux Sorc. |
| 820s | I feel like I'm being bullied in my own box. |
| 824s | Jenny, what else do you think? |
| 827s | I feel like. |
| 827s | I mean, I feel like it's very forgiving when you play evolutionary legacy, because, for example, like in certain, you know, raids, you can just kind of walk through things. |
| 837s | But, you know, I think Modz has a really good point on swiftness because when I first started playing Lost Ark, I just wanted to go fast. |
| 844s | That's pretty much it. |
| 845s | And that is absolutely why I play Reflux Sorc. |
| 848s | All right. |
| 848s | Apparently that was a good point. |
| 849s | But I think we have enough information to decide who the winner is. |
| 853s | Yeah, I do. |
| 854s | All right. |
| 855s | Thanks for your input, as always. |
| 856s | Send you back and we'll announce our winner. |
| 861s | You're not going far. |
| 862s | I love Stoopzz' jazz hands. |
| 864s | Do I stand here? |
| 866s | Go back. |
| 867s | Okay, I'll go back. |
| 870s | All right. |
| 871s | After another interesting debate, it is finally time to announce our winner. |
| 875s | Grenton, here we are again. |
| 880s | You're making that face at me. |
| 882s | Grenton. |
| 884s | You. |
| 886s | Still you - still you, Grenton. |
| 887s | You are not the Mokoko. |
| 890s | There you are. |
| 891s | Sorry DatModz. |
| 892s | Oh, not again. |
| 894s | I'll get Jenny. |
| 894s | Jenny won't leave me hanging. |
| 897s | Good job, Mr. |
| 897s | Modz. |
| 898s | Don't shake my hand. |
| 902s | Fighting the fight for Machinist. |
| 904s | Yeah. |
| 904s | I'm still not inviting them to my group. |
| 909s | You do what you got to to win. |
| 911s | All right. |
| 911s | Thank you for joining us on another episode of the Lost Ark Academy Debate Club. |
| 915s | Remember, none of these arguments really actually matter, because what does matter is the live series finale where you, the community, will choose who is not a Mokoko. |
| 924s | All right. |
| 924s | We will see you next week for the next episode. |
| 928s | We're all doing jazz hands. |
| 930s | Jazz hands.. |
