news tip Lost Ark: in the face of queues, Amazon offers bonuses and a new FR server! follow the leader
Right now, there are two schools: those playing Lost Ark, and those waiting to play Lost Ark in a queue. This news is likely to delight the 2nd category thanks to Amazon’s long-awaited reaction to reduce the time spent waiting to play…
Lost Ark has been out for just over a week now, and is a real hit. Which is both a good thing… and a bad thing for gamers, because of the full servers!. Of course you can follow our advice to avoid queues, but on top of that, Amazon is finally responding by opening a new server cluster in Europe. We take stock and talk about the new server chosen by the FR community:
Western Europe: the new European server cluster for Lost Ark
Summary of the situation
Lost Ark arrived in early access on February 8, 2022. It is an MMORPG, which has met with great success in South Korea in particular, and which is finally coming to us after years of waiting. Early Access went very well, with no real server issues.
However, as soon as it opened to everyone, because the game is free to play, the servers quickly began to leak. Endless queues, but also in-game issues with instances that no longer wanted to open, maintenance, etc…
This is therefore the reason why it was necessary to react quickly, and Amazon therefore announced the opening of a new region accompanied by new servers, the purpose of which was to unclog the initial region. The RETHRAMIS server has also been chosen by the FR community as the new place to meet. We can confirm that it speaks a lot of FR on the chat!
Gifts to motivate Lost Ark players
However, Amazon Games automatically warns: there will be no possible transfer between central Europe and Western Europe. Which means you’ll have to start a new character over there. The advantage of course being that the servers will be calmer, in theory. To motivate players, there will be rewards to collect.
If you log in between February 19 and March 2, you will receive in your mailbox a Commemorative gift of the launchcontaining:
- Vehicle Selection Chest (choice of mount): Terpeion or Shadow Terpeion
- A Midsummer Night’s Dream Instrument Appearance Selection Chest
- Medical Battle Item Chest x10
- Chest of Offensive Battle Items x10
- Legendary Affinity Selection Chest x3
- Weekly Exchange Potion Pack (1 Leap Essence Potion and 9 Minor Life Energy Potions)
On top of thatfor players who have purchased a Founder’s Pack(s), you will receive a additional bundle of exclusive items as well as additional royal crystals. They will be added to the inventory, which will allow you to use it on your current server or on a new one, if you ever move. Here is a summary of what these packs contain!
To finishthe Galatur server deprived several players access to their main story quest, which was very annoying, especially for a game where evolution is done over time. For this, a explorer starter pack will be offered to all players concerned. Here is what this pack includes:
- 30 days of crystal aura
- Novice Progression Support Chest
- Purchaseon Pet Selection Box (Tradable)
- Dyorika Steed Mount (Tradable)
- Character Slot Expansion
To see if this will be enough to unclog the full servers. We hope that the situation will improve quickly, because it is currently almost impossible to make instances from 6 p.m. on the biggest servers.
