 5 Tips

1. You Can Customize Characters At Any Time, But It WillCost You

You can reskin your characters at any time (Lost Ark’s fancyway of saying “customize a character” again), but you will need an AppearanceCustomization Ticket for it, and you’re going to need a Character Name ChangeTicket. These are two separate premium items, which means you’ll have to buythem with real money.

2. You Automatically Choose a Subclass, and Some AreGender-Locked

In Lost Ark, there aren’t subclass specializations —you automatically choose a subclass. This means that if you’re looking forregular tanks, DPS, or healers, you’ll have to look a bit deeper and see whichone of the available subclasses works for you. In addition, some aregender-locked for some reason, so tough look in case you wanted a differentcharacter with one of these specific subclasses.

3. Yes, You Start at Level 10

At one point in the past, there used to be specific introductorychapters for each class. This took players from levels 1 to 10 before jumpinginto the main story, but that has been streamlined quite a lot. Now, there is ashared prologue that you can just skip. All characters start at level 10 bydefault, which means you only need to grind 40 levels to hit the Combat Levelcap of 50.

4. Don’t Forget to Auto Move by Pressing T

This is explainedearly on, but it’s easy to forget as you’re traveling the world. There will betimes when you’ll need to double-check multiple character screens whiletraveling, so instead of stopping, set auto move and keep on moving. And yes,you can do this while on a mount as well.

5. Boxes Don’t Tend To Break

Lost Ark is an action RPG, so it’s likely that you willtry to break all boxes scattered around the world. Sadly, this doesn’t doanything, as they serve as pure background decoration and nothing more. Theonly exceptions are specific objects that you’ll need to destroy during queststhat ask you to, but nothing more. Sorry!
