hello i play all 3 supp and have a few things to say.

- most people have alt sup with level 7 gems, so it is really hard to attain 90+ attack buff without higher cdr gems. 90+ brand should be the standard tho with level 7s.

- AP buff on artist and bard depend on if your dps is standing in your SW/SV, so HM classes are likely to see lower AP buff time when they are DPSing way outside SW/SV.

- i have a pally with level 7s. AP buff uptime is literally impossible to keep 90+ unless you have Magick Stream. Without full magick stream stacks (C&J set up also lower CDR abit) there is about 2-4s of downtime on your HB with level 7s. Higher CDR gems will negate this obv, but I'd rather use them on my other sup.

- Identity depends on the raid/your DPS. if your DPS isnt bursting during your buffs, your iden lowers. I've had a 95 / 100 / 80 on my pally (31% sup MVP on ilvl) because my DPS was bursting only when i had aura. So 50+ iden really depends on the raid/whether you are syncing up bursts with your DPS.

- Identity on Bard/Artist will suffer if your DPS needs healing all the time. I am the type of sup to only heal if all 3 of my DPS is low HP. Why should my other 2 DPS suffer from buffs when 1 DPS can't dodge mechs? Better drink a pot.

- Identity also depends on how fast your sup can get meter. Some sup builds have golbino meter gen skills, some sup builds prio shields/DR.

- In a 8man raid, getting radiant depends on your party DPS. you can have 95/99/60+ and if your party is doing Z, you wont get radiant. It's just how the game is.

- In G4 thae, sup should focus more on DR/shields and counters rather than their uptime. Keeping your party alive is WAY more important than trying to strive for radiant.

- Last thing, please thank your sup and say good job when they are doing good. Getting a thank you from a DPS is way more satisfying than showing up on the MVP screen.

for the ppl who complain about supports uptime just play one and show me that consistent +90% buff uptime - brand 90 and identity 50 is acctully normal not that hard but event sup with lvl 8 gems if your artist / bard its not that ez to consistently get +90% AP buff uptime some times its not even ur fault ur in lobby with ranged hit master and a front attacker most of the time they stand a mile away from each other you cant buff both with ur circle buff
but most importent you forgot to mention 1 of the most importent things for sup players which buff / debuff have the highest priority should they start with brand / AP or identity this is very importent on every opener / after mechs

Playing support is like clicking 3 buttons properly and somehow 95% supports i met can't do that. EU has such a garbo player skill level.

I can tell when a DPS has suffered trauma from bad supports when I play with randos in guardian raids once in a blue moon during the opener. You've been hurt haven't you? There there. It'll be ok. I build their trust, making a new Lost Ark friend and then I let them die and add to their PTSD.

Edit: oh I said a YT unfriendly word lol

This video is a great service for new supports. When i play my bard i goblino greed gauge for radiant suppport mvp, i love it. I know there is a lot room for improvement as most of the times i get 80/90/50 (bard atkp placement issues)

Can you get 90% uptime with only lvl 7 gems? I feel like even with cycling, it’s kind of difficult. It would also help a lot if I had legendary con/judge.

A bard using sound shock for brand should smack that first. It is so fast and you get yerning up and brand in first fraction of a second.
