Will someone please give my Lost Ark gunslinger some trousers?It’s almost a full moon
It’s almost a full moon
Lost Arkis a new free-to-play MMORPG that is notable because a) it is a hack ‘n’ slash grind that makes it a bit like a free version of Diablo, b) I have no idea what is happening at any given point in time while playing it, instead drowning in a soup made of words like ‘destiny’, and c) the player characters look like they work at a sex dungeon. Specifically work at, rather than participate in. They serve drinks and clean wipe-down sofas for minimum wage, and they don’t particularly want to be wearing a latex catsuit, but here we are.
For example, I’m pretty sure my gunslinger character works at a steampunk cowboy themed erotique parlour. I actually quite enjoy her attack style, a sort of hyper-aggressive DPS that allows her to switch between three different gun stances (pistols, shotgun and rifle). The dual pistols in particular come with a load of crowd-control AOE attacks like explosions and spinning bullets firing smaller bullets, or something. And while there is some kind of story involving demons and a war and bits of stone (something something destiny), my gunslinger’s quest is, currently, the single-minded pursuit of a pair of trousers.

I’ve got nothing at all against skin-tight, low-rise leather hotpants, and it’s fair to saymost character classesdon’t come out of the Lost Ark wardrobe department with any options for smart-casual or athleisure. Indeed, my objection isn’t that my character started in hotpants, but rather that I do not seem to be allowed to put on anything else. Also, a lot of my base armour are Gravedigger items - as in, Gravedigger Gloves and such like - and I s’pose that’s to give it a kind of sexy cowboy Deadwood vibe, right? But honestly, isthisbefitting the solemnity of a funeral?
I know there are trousers in this world. You know how I know? Because every other bastard is allowed them. But I can’t buy them anywhere. The trader just has some very expensive pauldrons. I think they must be hiding all the trousers from my character specifically: “Quick, ol' bare-bums is coming!” But why!? God, she must be so cold! It’s not like high-fantasy worlds have central heating or anything!
I imagine in that last picture she complaining about splinters. Please. Does anyone have any trousers? Anyone at all?
