Lost Ark: How to get no less than 72 island hearts?
Island Hearts are a big part of the adventure in Lost Ark. You'll need to collect at least 15 to access the western part of the world map, but continuing to collect will earn you other valuable rewards. Here is a guide to get no less than 72 Island Hearts!
Summary: Prerequisites
- Island Heart by purple quests - 15 hearts
- Island Heart by dailies (Epona) - 8 hearts
- Island Heart by affinity - 7 hearts
- Island Heart per collection or random - 30 hearts
- Island Heart by Field Bosses - 12 hearts
Don't forget Lost Ark's interactive maps to help you locate islands on the world map.
Note: The information below is valid for the Korean and Russian versions, even if certain points sometimes differ slightly (quantity of objects for reputations, etc.).
I. Prerequisites
Before you start hunting for Islands Hearts, I strongly advise you to finish the blue quests. You will receive one for free. The island names will not be translated since the game is only available in Korean or with an unofficial English patch.
But what is that for?
First of all, with each new heart, you will receive quite interesting items or stuff.
After 15 hearts, you will have access to the western part of the map. You can then complete the purple Procyon Curtain quest.
Give the hearts to the statue on the island below. Don't forget to talk to the NPC on the island afterward to receive the items.
It is located between mainland Bern and Anihc:
If you have time, spend each day on the islands requiring affinity, it's quite long to increase it, so it's better to do it in advance!
Some islands have few details because they are straightforward or because I just haven't done them yet.
Some guides do not have the same names. If the name of an island is different between the two guides, I wrote both.
