12s highlights of our monthly update for
14s those not interested in combing through
16s every nitty-gritty detail
18s today we'll be diving into the September
20s 2023 update which includes jumpstart
24s servers Primal Island Battle Royale

30s updates balance changes and a ton of
33s other stuff
34s for those who tuned in last month you'll
36s notice the format is a little different
38s today
38s I've heard two stories about why Michael
41s our head of video isn't here he either
43s got really sick after traveling to film
46s The Debate Club live finale or Stoops
49s got so excited after he won that he ran
52s over Michael's feet while zooming around
55s regardless I'm flying solo so I'll
58s probably just pop into the game at some
59s point and do things my way
61s quick reminder before we get started
63s this video is meant to be an Express
65s experience and only covers the
67s highlights you'll need to read through
69s the article for every detail and change
71s alright let's hop into it so the first
74s thing that we're going to talk about are
76s jumpstart servers which are custom built
78s to provide a fresh beginning for new or
81s returning players who are interested in
83s giving Lost Ark a try
85s they're built to help players jump
88s right into the end game
90s we recognize that the game had
92s encountered some challenges at launch
94s mainly a steep progression curve Bots
97s and some stability issues but we've made
99s serious strides in tackling those issues
102s and feel really confident that we're in
104s a good place to bring players back
106s and let's be honest lost ark's raids are
109s awesome I've had a blast rating with my
112s guild making friends and tackling
114s challenges together and that's what
116s jumpstart servers are all about getting
118s you to the parts of Lost Ark that are
121s really awesome
122s with jumpstart servers players are going
124s to get launched right to item level 14
126s 15 with a southburn power pass have
129s immediate access to engraving support
130s gems and a ton of events to make them
133s feel powerful right away and progress
136s quickly let me show you how easy it is
139s to jump into the end game
141s alright so just made a fresh character
143s claimed my power pass
146s let's go ahead and use it
148s I made a Slayer it's my main in-game
152s let's jump
154s right into the end game
159s foreign
180s [Music]
186s is moving quickly you can Jump Right In
190s you know do the classic adventurous path
194s kind of learn
195s a bit about Arcadia even though your
197s power pass been jumping through to the
199s holy watch the cutscenes we're gonna
202s skip them right now learn how to set up
204s your character or if you are a returning
207s character you can skip the path and once
211s again jump right into the end game
219s so for all of these for new players
221s they'll teach you how to play the game
223s uh whether it's going over the major
226s events in Lost ark's history the
229s training area which teaches you how to
231s you know do some of the basic game
233s mechanics like countering stagger that
235s sort of thing uh same with the training
237s room uh or if you're a returning player
240s you can choose to skip it and you know
242s boots on the ground get right into the
244s action and start your adventure right
246s away
247s there will definitely still be a lot for
250s players to learn even after going
252s through in-game tutorials but our goal
254s is to have a lot of players going
256s through the experience together so they
258s can work together to Prague raids help
261s each other all on an even footing for
263s that reason they'll have isolated PVE
265s matchmaking their own party finder and
268s auction house there's a server in each
270s region and we'll be looking for the
272s right time to connect them back within
274s the next six months
276s we have a ton of things planned to help
277s players on them progress and check out
280s everything Lost Ark has to offer with
282s special gifts increased experience some
285s really unique events to really jump
287s start their Adventure into Arcadia if
290s you want more details on what to expect
291s there's a link in the patch notes to the
294s jumpstart details article
296s all right let's talk about some of the
298s new activities and systems coming to
300s Arcadia
301s first off we have Primal Island sail
304s over to Primal Island embrace yourself
306s you'll have to fight steal and survive
308s against Fierce competition in a new
311s Battle Royale style event where you'll
313s drop into an arena to face off against
315s other players and hordes of dinosaurs
319s the goal is to be the last one standing
321s the arena is open to competitors item
323s level 1490 and higher but your item
326s level and stats won't help you here
328s you'll need to scavenge gear during the
331s match and upgrade it in real time to
333s give yourself a fighting chance there's
335s more details and entry times listed in
338s the release notes so if you want to
340s learn more about the Battle Royale check
342s it out there
343s all right for the next part let's talk
345s about some intertwined systems that are
348s all being added together I'm talking
350s about yaza's jar the new skin crafting
353s system and our updates to the amethyst
356s Shard shop I think the best way to
358s describe this is to hop in game and show
360s you so let's try out some yaza's jar
363s polls all right I hopped on my tester
365s account I've got it loaded up with some
369s yaz's jars we have both season one and
373s season two so I'm going to talk through
375s it while showing it off to you there's a
378s lot to go through some interconnected
380s systems and there's some details that I
382s might not get to while I'm just talking
384s off the cuff so if you're interested in
387s learning some of the restrictions on
389s items you can or can't use or how
391s certain things interact read the release
393s notes uh the goal here is to just show
395s you how it works try out some polls see
398s what we get
400s so yaza's jar is a new Cosmetic System
403s that introduces a ton of skins into the
406s game both epic and all new legendary
409s skins which give you an actual a little
412s bit of a boost to your attack power and
415s the stats granted uh you can see on your
418s character menu that when you have skins
421s they you know have a little bit of
424s strength you can see here one percent
425s along with some virtues the legendary
428s ones will be a teeny bit higher but not
431s something that gives you an enormous
433s power bump in combat or anything like
435s that
436s so let's check it out so there's two
439s main components that go into yaz's jar
441s there's cloth which you can earn from
445s dismantling skins
447s and there's the jar itself which
449s consumes the cloth to roll it into a new
453s cosmetic so you can see here by
456s dismantling your existing skins you can
460s actually earn cloth so let's click
462s dismantle on these two skins dismantle
464s them
465s and there we go we got 14 clock
468s that's exactly how much cloth you need
470s to roll a jar so let's give it a try
473s we have two seasons coming in season one
476s and season two
477s uh season one came out a little bit
479s earlier in Korea so it actually doesn't
481s have every class you can see here uh
485s there isn't one for the Slayer to select
488s so for this video we're gonna be trying
491s out season two Elite which has the
495s Slayer skins
497s so once you right click on the jar
499s before you do anything you can take a
501s preview and see what some of your
503s possible roles are
505s before you roll you can select the class
508s and the piece that you're interested in
510s trying to get so for Slayer I can choose
513s between trying to roll a weapon skin a
516s headpiece a chest piece or the legs
520s uh and of course you can preview how all
522s of these will look on your characters
524s both the legendaries and all of the Epic
527s chances
528s so let's check it out okay there's the
531s legendary sword for the Slayer and it
534s comes in two different colors
537s we can check out uh you know while we're
539s still in preview what may be the full
541s matching set looks like so there's the
543s head piece we got the chess piece let's
546s try on the legs and let's give it the
549s matching sword so no one
550s comments at me in the Youtube video
554s um there we go so that's what the whole
555s Slayer legendary skin set looks like and
559s on top of that you know there's a ton of
561s cool epic ones as well
564s um a lot of different options for
566s customizing your classes there's you
569s know just a really wide variety of
571s different pieces
573s so with that let's try it out
577s we have our cloth we have our jar and
580s now we can try and roll I think first we
583s can try and roll for the weapon I think
585s this sword is pretty cool so let's craft
588s one and see how it goes
592s all right so for that roll we got an
594s epic one
596s and in our version when you get an epic
600s we've added the ability to gain amethyst
604s shards along with the skin
607s we've added a bunch of new options into
609s the amethyst Shard shop that you can
612s purchase silver
614s dies and a bunch of other things from
617s the shop including the dawn Cosmetics so
620s more skins uh if you're trying to roll
623s for the legendaries and you don't get it
625s we wanted to make it not feel quite as
627s bad so we partnered with smilegate RPG
630s to you know make sure that every roll
633s from yaza's jar still feels exciting and
635s like you're getting something
638s foreign
639s try again see what we get and once I get
642s enough amethyst shards if we uh keep
645s rolling we can head over and go to the
648s amethyst Shard shop and buy something
650s from there
653s we have the full odds listed on our page
655s but you can see that they're also
656s visible right here in
659s in the UI so
662s each we have a five percent chance that
664s either of these legendary weapons so
666s together about a 10 chance of rolling a
670s legendary skin
676s so far we've gotten a variety of
678s different swords
682s let's see if we can go ahead and Hyrule
686s I will definitely be doing this on the
688s live servers once it comes out
692s there we go all right
694s so we got a little high roll you know if
696s it's a 10 chance we rolled it on our uh
698s I think seventh try we can uh go ahead
701s and equip that check it out
704s there it is pretty sweet sword
709s and while we were rolling we got these
711s other swords you know we can sell these
713s on the marketplace we can dismantle them
715s for more cloth and we got 6 000 amethyst
719s shards which we can go spend as well so
722s now let me uh head over and show you
725s what exactly you can spend your amethyst
728s shards on
731s all right
733s so you can head over to the amethyst
735s Shard Exchange in any of the major areas
737s and check out some of the different
738s things that are available
740s um there's all the classics that have
741s been there since launch this is
743s something that we want to refresh on a
745s yearly basis so you can buy the fiance
748s this year and then next year you know if
749s you've accumulated some more amethyst
751s shards either from yaza's jar or from
754s the twitch drops or prime gaming drops
756s that come out you'll have a lot of
759s options of things to buy
761s so we have 14 000 we could get you know
765s a headwear piece of the new dawn skins
767s if we wanted to we could pick up some
769s dies to further customize their
772s character
773s but I know the thing that I will
774s probably be buying the most on the live
777s servers is gonna be these silver packs
780s each uh each thousand amethyst shards
784s gets you two regulus's light currency
786s chess so that's 200 000 silver to
789s accompany your epic skin
793s um you can see that there's purchase
794s limits on some things like the Skins you
797s know the combat wolf mount
800s um things like that but there isn't a
802s purchase limit on the silver ore on the
806s dies so if you're really into fashion
808s Arc you're going to be able to you know
811s be fully fully dressed to the nines
813s whenever you want or you know if you
816s like honing like I do you're gonna have
819s plenty of silver to keep that up as well
822s though the final interwoven part of this
825s system is a new ability to craft some
829s skins uh from the NPC where you have
834s historically done your dying and
836s customization
838s um now you'll be able to unlock skins by
843s completing achievements so you can see
845s as a new player haven't completed a lot
848s of these achievements but there's a lot
850s of cool skins that you can get the
853s ability to unlock just by playing Lost
856s Ark and then you can actually just craft
858s them with the cloth uh so you know
861s here's some from we have some from
863s Walton we have some from vicus related
867s achievements
868s so as you progress through lost Arc
870s you'll be unlocking these and have new
873s options of crafting Epic
876s uh and it looks like some rare skins as
879s well so far we have one unlocked which
881s is uh completing the prologue without
884s skipping and we can craft these
887s artheentinian Engineers goggles first
890s six cloth
892s so you can craft those right away and
895s have you know access to a bunch of new
898s cosmetics
901s there we go
903s looking fresh
905s so we have some full cosmetic showcase
907s videos for all the legendary skins in
911s yaz's jar season one and season two in
915s the release notes but there's a ton more
917s epic skins so you're just gonna have to
919s hop in game once the update drops and
921s check it out for yourself
923s the ton of skins coming with yaz's jar

1062s them less daunting for new players
1064s especially those on jumpstart servers
1066s and to keep them fun as veteran players

1071s changes but here are some of the most
1072s important ones and a quick note these

1091s gate 6 which is now gate four after the
1093s changes can be cleared once every two
1096s weeks anyone who's played it knows that
1099s it's a very epic but also very long
1101s fight so we hope this helps with players
1103s not feeling too overloaded with having
1106s to do too many raids on a weekly basis
1109s for triangle Gate 1 has been removed as
1112s well
1113s and across all of these raids and
1115s Dungeons and activities with some gates
