In Lost Ark, Valtan is about to come out, and with it brand new sets of gear, 2 legendary sets and 9 relic sets. The truth is, you cannot build your character or gear your character the same way they do in Korea, you can think of our version as a half release when it comes to the gear sets. What gear set you guys are actually planning on going for when Lost Ark Valtan Releases? In this Lost Ark Valtan gear guide, we break down the Lost Ark Gear Sets, the required materials you need to craft the Valtan gear and which is the best gear set combination.

Lost Ark Valtan Gear Guide - Valtan Gear Sets, Materials, Requirements & How To Get

You can potentially mess up your gear selection and it will literally cost you weeks of time since Valtan is only once per character per week. Valtan will be dropping mats that are exclusive to the Valtan raid and you need those mats in order to craft your gear. We are going to be walking you through this and give you all the information that you need to figure out what you'll be doing for the Lost Ark Valtan release.

Lost Ark Valtan Gear Mats Requirements

The first 2 are the legendary sets and with these legendary sets, you will notice this piece requires this tendon mat. The first 4 pieces require this mat and the last 2 pieces require the tooth. If we look at the second set, it's going to be the same thing, only the first 2 pieces require the tooth and then the last 4 pieces require the tendon. However, this is really important. After the legendary sets, the remaining sets are these relic sets or the orange sets and these sets have different requirements as well. You're going to see bones and wings. These wings are from vicus and these bones are from Valtan. This is significant because right now we only have access to Valtan.

 Every single set has different pieces that require different mats, so a lot of people's gearing process will be different, you're not going to be able to just copy past the one person, you really need to figure out what gear set you're going for, what the mat requirement is. And plan out exactly how you're going to go about doing your runs because each run gives you a specific amount of mats and you can just be a lot more efficient with your time because remember Valtan you can only do once per week. To summarize, these first four pieces require these bones and these rocks, in the last two pieces require these wings and rocks.

Mats Gained When Complete Valtan In Lost Ark

What you actually get for completing Valtan hard and Valtan normal. To upgrade your gear you need three mats, you need tendons, you need bones and you need rocks. The wings that we talked about earlier are not available in our game yet. You get 12 tendons for completing Valtan normal, you get 6 bones for completing Valtan normal and you get 0 rocks for completing Valtan normal. For hard, you get 0 tendons, get 12 bones, so you get double the bones for running hard and you get 2 rocks for completing hard which you will not get for completing normal. So normal gets you tendons, hard gets you rocks and more bones. The material costs for weapons regardless of whether its bones or tendons or Vykas swings, the material cost is always 25 per weapon and 10 per armor.

By completing the Valtan raids, you'll have access to getting these three mats. These three mats are required to craft your gear set these two mats specifically can only be gained through completing the Valtan raid. Versus the rocks, they're primarily from Valtan hard, but you can also purchase the rocks from a vendor.

Which Lost Ark Valtan Gear You Should Get & How To Get It

Keep in mind this is a hybrid version of these sets because no one will have a six-piece set or can get the six-piece set for any of the relic sets or even the legendary sets. Vykas is not in the game yet, so these sets are a mixture of the legendary sets and the relic sets, and depending on which relic set you to want to go for that is going to determine which set you're going to choose right here. Every single set will be achievable or completable rather at least one week faster by doing Valtan normal first.

The current legendary set that we have from Argos is equal stat-wise to the legendary set that we get from Valtan. They are identical when it comes to stat performance. The difference lies with the set bonuses, Argos giving a two-piece and five-piece bonus versus the Valtan and set giving a two-piece, four-piece, and six-piece. In our version, we will only have access to two-piece and four-piece. The people that could prioritize running Valtan hard on day one, week one are the people that don't find any value in running the crit set being forced to run the crit set. Because we only have access to Valtan and not Vakys being forced to run the crit set and not finding the value in that crit set compared to the Argos preordained set.
