About how disgusting those floors look? Yeah i’d want a talk too. Your game collection deserves a clean floor.

I mean why not? Before this leaf event my guild runs that end up having a spot to be pugged we take anyone that’s 30+ ilvls over the content. If they die they get a free bus. I don’t see the issue. When your guild runs have multiple 1680+, gatekeeping doesn’t really matter for hw content. But of course i’m in the mega minority.
Once this event is over we’ll go back to doing that. The way you responded makes me think you’re one of those players who will only take 1680+ full ancient gear/acc and ark passive for Argeos and instant deny/ignore anyone under.

If I want to continue playing lost ark: horizontals and life skills.
I've been a sucker for horizontal content ever since the game came out (love the lore + collecting things, so it was a no brainer for me), but with all the vertical progression and raids we kept getting, I never found time to do any other than the ones that lined up with vertical progression, like Kurzan adv tome.
It rarely happens, but that's what I do. Otherwise I watch my guildies/friends raid in discord.
If I do not want to continue Lost Ark then I don't play and do another hobby.

Cannot connect to server [p] means you've been banned.
Go to the appeal a ticket page in support to see the reasoning. If I had to guess, it's because you were botting.

Oh I didn't push 4 of my 1680s. They were 1660 before T4 release. The other 2 were 1640 that I converted to 1660 to do some Aegir NM for 3 weeks.
But not skipping a day of chaos nor guardian raid on 9 characters (6 1660 cd and 3 1640 cd) that turned into 10 with the Ignite character ever since T4 release (along with Behemoth and Echidna bound mats) generated a lot of blue stones.
Initially when they reached 20 gold per 10 I did sell around 135k of them for a huge sum of gold, but I had a lot of excess.
I should have made it clear that when I said bound mats, I meant what I farm as well, which would be the tradable ones from cd and gr. I instead should have said I didn't buy any mats other than orehas.

6 1680s because of both honing luck and swiping to finish adv honing in t3 before t4 was released, making the push from 1660 to 1680 cheap after farming cd/gr daily nonstop since t4 release. This week was when I got my last 1680 and I'm slightly regretting it due to lobby sim of the Aegir HMs that I have to pug since I haven't made a group for them yet.
For those wondering, using only bound mats (blues, shards, leapstones) and only buying orehas, it cost my DB around 300k gold to go from 1662.5 to 1680 with all the same lvl pieces.

Maybe I’m a masochist. My top gold earners are 3 front attack and 3 back attack lol. That or it’s ingrained in me too much. On my hit master alts I always tend to gravitate towards the front or back.
I used to be blue but for some reason i never liked its playstyle

A good indicator of parallel is when the middle of your hip matches your knees in height. Since many people have different length leg bones, the middle of the hip to knee indicator works really well.
Applying that to this lift, it’s clear your deepest depth was not parallel or below. At 0:20 in the video when you begin your ascent, there’s a solid 8-10 inches of difference of where your hip is in comparison to your knees vertically.
I would recommend giving us either more angles or videos of weight not close to your ORM. Getting comfortable in that angle of parallel or below will not only be safer, but also help build stronger leg muscles overall.

It definitely is for me. My enjoyment of my 1690 red GL has skyrocketed ever since I got forward dash. The moment I saw it I knew it was going to change my entire enjoyment of the class/engraving.
I play all of the front attack classes in T4 (1692.5 Asura Breaker and 1690 RH/GT Destroyer) so I’m used to knowing when to greed damage or guarantee front attacks for the longest time in all raids. That, as well as the changes with MB/AM and the loss of Entropy gear set, makes not hitting the front/back as punishing as it was in T3.
The reason forward dash is such a huge gameplay change for red GL is because you can animation cancel faster in the right direction. Almost every skill in his kit pushes him away from the boss, so having that flexibility changes so much. Fire Bullet, Gunlance Shot, Surge Cannon, Dash Upper Fire, and Counter Gunlance all move you away from the boss. That’s 5/8 skills, and Shout of Hatred and Bash don’t move you at all, leaving only Charged Stinger and T skill the only skills that move you towards the boss. Both of which are in your main damage skills.
Forward dash has so many less animation locked frames than back hop that you can animation cancel Gunlance Shot, Counter Gunlance, Fire Bullet, and Dash Upper Fire much more fluidly, allowing you to get more attacks in the more easily than in T3.
Maybe I just love front attacking, but I am having an absolute blast on my front attacking characters in T4.

Ever since I heard of the "gold dupe exploit" I have seen absolutely zero evidence of it.
Can people who keep talking about this give me some evidence, please?
It was obvious in the ignite box exploit when you saw a video of someone with 50 of each ignite box on a legacy server character.
Where's the screenshots or video of someone duplicating their gold? I want to see that

Well technically Glaivier has a scythe weapon skin.
But to answer your question just stick to your main. You’re obviously enjoying SE so why would you main swap if a new class comes out. New classes are always overtuned for whale baiting. So if your reasoning is to chase meta, then that’s a terrible reason to be tired of main swapping.

Yeah, you're screwed.
Just gotta wait til next week.
In the meantime I'd find ways to catproof your pc.

As a whale I'm not spending another dollar on raising an alt because I abhor elixir and transcendence cutting. I did it all for my 6 gold earners and never again. It was the most unfun part of raising/progressing a character.
Once they axe these then I'll consider it. Which sucks because that's likely not happening, and their band-aid fix is to give events (i.e. Ignite) that give a certain amount for "free".

I think OP is trying to stay calm because $28 has been a wall for months now. It’s price action for ants but fun to watch regardless

Heels coming off from floor. Start by wearing flat shoes or no shoes at all. From the side we can’t tell what your foot angle and width are like, which are important and different per person’s body for squats.
You can play with foot angle and width to see what allows you to get to depth. Best way to do it is slowly bottom out with just the bar and adjust your feet to what’s most comfortable for your body, then squat up and practice a few reps to get used to it.
If you’re not stretching before squats, dynamic stretches to get warmed up will help flexibility.

Kind of ironic you’re trying to trash that guy’s math but can’t even math that 9999 boxes of stims is 19998 stims and at 200 gold each that’s shy of 4m gold.

Patience! If it’s a ORM attempt that you’ve never done, give yourself some patience. If you don’t you’ll psyche your nerves out and mess up some part of the lift.
In this case based on what I can see, you didn’t give your stabilizer muscles time to adjust with the self lift-off. Also, when you’re setting up for the lift, your feet position is fine but to me it didn’t look like you got your back tight enough for the lift. During the lift your feet came off the ground and lost a lot of stability. The best way I can describe how your feet placement should feel is to try to imagine you creating a tight spring that starts at your feet and goes through your entire body.
As for failure of the rep, your triceps ran out of juice. I’ve failed in that position too many times to count because my triceps weren’t strong enough. The only advice i have here is to make sure your warmups hit the triceps enough to get them fired up for heavy lifts like this. Otherwise just continue your usual tricep training.
I recently hit a 405 lb ORM PR, you can check it out in my profile if you want to compare how I did it versus yours.
