Should you buy skins for gold?
There are some cheap skins for like 200g-600g per piece of equipment, I've seen that they give you a boost of 1% strengh(dex, etc depending on character) . is it worth buying those skins for the stats? Or can we actualy loot them somehow ?

i would say no, theres so much better things to spend gold on if you arent 1370+ yet, turn gold into blue crystals and buy T3 mats etc, just dont think the 1% stat boosts are worth the gold when you can directly upgrade your Item level

If you really like the skin. Sure. For the boost alone? Depends.

Is the ~2k gold a lot for you or not?

Buying current skins, that are on sale, for gold, is usually the best stratagy. They might drop in prices, when the sale is almost over. People buy them and want to "cash" out. Later then that and the price goes up. Well, this one is questionable, because you can't dye it. So maybe it stays cheap.

Just a small warning. If you purchase a skin from someone in the market and this person refunds his bundle / DLC then you will get a ban aswell because he refunded the bundle. Just read the reviews of this game. Purchasing anything that is real money item, is a high risk.

Stop spreading misinformation
Can't refund dlc and has been 0 evidence to support any of that claim

As far as OP I would personally save gold and work towards some of the "free" and "skins" in game. If you really like your class and I mean really like it then think about spending actual cash unless you have the gold to spare. It's f2p so what is $25 of a $60 box price game worth to you? Again I suggest only on a class you love unless you can just dish out cash whenever you like

Buy what you want. Who cares what others think.

If you could care less about upgrading and gear progression, yes. If you care about those things, then no.. obviously

And second, do you really wanna support a company that is putting one skin a month into their shop?

You should learn that before telling people to stop anything. You CAN refund DLCs, just click on more information. I have refunded allot of games with many many DLCs in them. The information about DLCs just tells that SOME DLCs can not be refunded. Learn your stuff 1st man. Also a founders pack was with the game itselfs so you could play 3 days earlier.

I didnt like my bard as a fairy...so i bought Lawnmaker C (or whatever its called) from AH, pants and chest for 7k gold. I dont regret this purchase.

just don't buy the platinum founders skins and i think you're okay, some people have been banned because the original purchasers of the founders packs managed to get a refund and caused the buyers of said skins to get banned too which is utter BS

Things are only going to get more expensive untill the market stabilizes. If you want a skin pick it up. Currently there are only 2 that i know of that are earnable ingame, Maze of the edge and the one from rapport

There's a vast difference between "DLC" and in-game purchases facilitated by a Steam store page. The Steam packs that provide skins cannot be refunded from the moment the purchaser activated the pack on their Lost Ark account, per Steam's terms.

It literally tells you when you buy any of the 'DLCs' for this game, that they are not elligible for a refund. You're confidently wrong.
