Thousands of players are enjoying Lost Ark, the newest MMO dominating the gaming scene that offers a new exciting world to explore.

Lost Ark doesn’t restrict players from playing solo, but you should consider a few things before committing to this playstyle. The game can be challenging when alone as you don’t have other players assisting you in fights with other classes and abilities. This means you’ll likely have a harder time against some enemies, and the game might be more of a grind. 

Also, as a solo player, you won’t have a diverse group of classes in every situation. Some character builds are meant to fill a specific role, like DPS or Tanks. Consider this when making a solo character, as your build will need to cover more ground. Try to make a build capable of being effective in any situation. 

The final thing you should consider when playing solo in Lost Ark is the overall experience. Playing an MMO with a group can be more exciting or fun, especially if you have a dedicated party consistently grinding quests. You’ll miss this aspect when playing solo, which might ruin the experience for some players. 

Lost Ark doesn’t prevent players from playing alone, but make sure it is the right choice for you before committing.
