Lost Ark will be receiving a weekly update today which will be making a number of changes to the game including bug fixes and quality of life improvements.

Just like some of the previous weekly updates, this one will not be adding any features as well. However, there are some notable changes that have been made to the game, including a new cooldown for Gold earned from the Rapport system. Players will not be able to use this Gold for certain activities for three days after receiving it. The maintenance kicks off on August 3rd at 12 AM PT / 7 AM UTC / 9 AM CEST and will be lasting for 4 hours as usual. There have been instances in the past where the maintenance has been extended, but it is pretty unlikely. Here are the complete patch notes of the update.

Lost Ark Weekly Update Patch Notes & Maintenance Schedule (Today, August 3rd)

  • Gold earned from the Rapport system will be received as “withheld funds”, which are subject to a 3-day withholding period during which they are restricted in the following ways:
    • Cannot send withheld funds through mail
    • Cannot deduct from withheld funds when accepting billing mail
    • Cannot use on 1:1 trades
    • Cannot use in Auction House
    • Cannot use in Marketplace
    • Cannot use in Loot Auctions
  • For the first 72 hours after using a paid Powerpass, all gold earned by trading Una’s Tokens will be received as withheld funds and subject to the 3-day withholding period.
    • Please note that all Powerpasses are currently disabled as we work to resolve an issue with the feature. We will provide an additional update on Powerpasses update later this week.
