To help you get a head start, we'll be giving off our ten tips and tricks that we wish we knew before jumping into Lost Ark for the first.

The Scrapper is a big, punchy class with a lot of damage and utility - namely what we mentioned above, the Stagger buffs . Stagger is a mechanic in Lost Ark that allows players to knock down enemies and bosses. The Scrapper has this on the class' abilities as well as buffs for their teammates.

Located directly under your minimap, Bifrost is a mechanic that lets you save a location as a fast travel point for future use.
