Gearing past 1370

[Escape123]

Im just trying to get my feet wet with T3 abyssals because i heard you cant grow anymore with chaos dungeons. So i tried playing oreha normal and can pass the first dungeon but cannot pass the second dungeon albion after trying a long time.

Just want to know when i get to 1370, can i eventually reach 1385 if dont do hard albion or agros at all? (im assuming argos is even harder so not worth banging head on the wall).
Which means my only source of loot being 1370 hard airas oculus

Yes, it is slower but you can get to 1385 by doing only hard oculus. You get tokens from both hard mode abyssals and you use them to craft legendary gear where you transfer your epic one.

U can get orehas set slowly, but its not as good as argos gear, argos p1, is really simple, and most random parties will clear it, the first time i did argos, i did it with matchmaking, and took us 2 tries, you should try to do argos every week, because argos set is the best currently

[Adeptus]

Thats actually a good Question. Can you upgrade your current gear past 15+?.

Argos isnt really that hard tbh. Its all about understanding the mechanics. Phase 1 which is available at 1370 is totally doable. The tricky part is to find 7 more people who understand him too. If you have problems with albion you can watch a guide and maybe get a bard or pala in your group.

I havent yet tried argos because im not at 1370.
But i have tried 1340 albion normal and cannot beat it.
Thus i was assuming argos will be much harder than albion

Keep trying bro. If youre not making mistake then its probably your teammates. Argos is easy so dont be scared of doing it since it gives gold and potentially good accessory to sell.

Progression is do both 1370 hard mode abyssals and make weapon + 2 piece chosen gear. Then do argos p1 and make 2 argos set pieces. You will have 5/6 legendary armor pieces at this point.

Then try to push to 1385 cause the rates semi reset to 60% and do p2 argos to finish getting full legendary gear. Slowly transition to 5 piece argos set or save some gold by sticking to 3 chosen 3 argos cause the set effects are w/e.

Argos is easier than Lightning Albion Normal or Hard lol. Don't see why you need to nerf yourself with material acquisition.

Also lots of 1400+ random que's for 1370 Hard.

bring timestop potion for albion

Argos has some quick attacks so you may die at first before you familiarize yourself with the battle. But he has clear telegraphs and not many one shot mechanics, so it is not too hard once you know what is what.

Enraged Albion uses huge AoE attacks with little telegraphs and constantly jumps around. For me personally P1 Argos is easier to fight.
Argos has one negative though. You have to get 7 competent people, not 3.

That's a funny joke. It took me the better part of two days going through random parties trying to find one with few enough idiots to get my first clear.

You are right that it's really simple though, it's just that randoms are that stupid and worthless.

argos and albion hard mode are ez af, i mean it depends on the player for sure but for me and my friends it was easy only hard thing was argos p3 took some tries.

Honest opinion, both hard mode abyssal are harder than Argos P1. In the end it depends what you are struggeling with. Mechanics (Albions safe spot phase) or eating to much dmg.

If it's the dmg (and you are not running grudge), Argos should be ok for you. Outside of mechs he hits like a wet noddle. If it's mechs, Argos can be harder. Don't give up.

Abyssal Dungeons hard have one advantage. Everyone 1370+ is running them. So it is easier to get "carried" down the road. I for example try to get one fresh 1370 in my group each week just to be nice and help out, as long as that person communicates. Normal mode in the other hand... mains stop running them and the quality of alts is not really high. I already notice it in Guardian raids. I didn't even know that Igrexion can run away before the transition to the third phase. Welp... happens more often now. I geniuly hope it is because of alts and not the quality of player.

About clearing it with random people. Do it right after the reset or weekend. Because "we" can do it only once, more and more people have done it later in the reset. You definitly notice that. Early in the reset, almost flawless. Late in the reset, some people are worse than bots AND ignore chat.

No you cannot. The 1302 gear is hard locked to +15. In order to go higher you HAVE to collect either of the 2 1370 craftables and craft your 1340 set (its a 1340 set as you start at +6)
