How To Ping in Lost Ark

Pinging markers is crucial in MMO games, and Lost Ark is no different. The ping feature lets you quickly mark a particular location, enemy, or area in your group to plan your next move. It particularly saves a lot of time by allowing you to communicate effectively with your team members.

However, with an array of options available on the screen, it might be difficult for you to use Lost Ark's ping feature in the first place. Therefore, we've put together a guide breaking down all the essential steps to ping in Lost Ark.

How to Ping in Lost Ark

Lost Ark provides players with three effective methods for pinging. To ping while playing, simply hover the mouse cursor over any area of the screen, hold down the "CTRL" key, and click the left mouse button to place a temporary marker at the chosen location.

The second way is by opening the map with the "TAB" key and holding "CTRL" while clicking the left mouse button; players can place a marker on the mini-map, indicating a particular location to their team. Additionally, this method provides more flexibility than in-game pinging since players can mark locations without being physically present.

Finally, the third way is to place a marker on the world map. To do this, players must press "M" to open the map and then hold down "Shift" while clicking the right mouse button. This method is especially beneficial for players who have access to sailing and want to explore the various islands or find lucrative farming spots for earning gold or silver.

How To Change Controls in Lost Ark

If you find the default controls in Lost Ark challenging to use and would prefer to customize them, it's easy to do so. 

To customize other controls in the game, open the settings menu and choose the Hotkeys tab. From there, select the type of control you want to modify and click on the specific command you want to change. Finally, press the new key you want to use instead.

So there you have it. That's everything you need to know about changing controls in Lost Ark.
