What is a Rapport Skip?
Rapport Skip is a rapport-progression trick to speed up Rapport progression in Lost Ark. By dumping multiple Rapport Gifts in one Rapport session, you can essentially “skip” some Rapport Levels and bypass Rapport Level requirements.
Some NPCs in Lost Ark will have increasingly challenging requirements as you progress through Rapport Levels. By using a Rapport Skip, you can bypass these requirements and reach your desired Rapport Level in one go. The only challenge here is getting enough of the same Rapport Items to push you to your desired Rapport Level.
How to Skip Rapport with Sasha
Like most Rapport NPCs in Lost Ark, you can skip Rapport levels with Sasha and jump straight to Rapport Levels that give out valuable rewards. You can do this by giving Sasha multiple Legendary Rapport Items in one go.
To start, build up your Rapport with Sasha to 5100 points in Amicable 1. If you only use Sheet Music and Emotes, you can reach Amicable 1 in just a few days.
When you hit 5100 points in Amicable 1, stop Rapport with Sasha and start collecting 35 Legendary Rapport Items. You can give her just about any Legendary Rapport Item, but the Chain War Chronicles is one of the most accessible.
Once you have 35 Legendary Rapport Items, talk to Sasha again at Origins of Stern, then give her all 35 Legendary Rapport Items in one go. Doing this will push your rapport progress with Sasha from Amicable 1 to Trusted and unlock all the rewards for reaching trusted with Sasha.
Is the Sasha Rapport Skip worth it?
Whether the Shasha Rapport Skip is worth it is entirely up to you. However, when you consider the Rapport Rewards’ value and the time and effort you spend collecting the necessary Rapport Gifts to skip Rapport with her, you’ll quickly realize that skipping Rapport with her isn’t worth it.
The rewards for reaching Trusted Rapport with Sasha include the 3rd Giant’s Heart, 100-Gold Coin, and a Harmony Battle Engraving Recipe Pouch. While these three rewards aren’t terrible (Giant’s Heart can eventually get you a stat potion), they do not boost your character in any tangible way.
For comparison, Rapport Skip with Nia will get you a Stat Increase Potion, a Charisma Potion, and an Omnium Star. While the Omnium Star does nothing to increase your character’s stats, the Stat Increase Potion and Charisma Potion will significantly help your character’s progress through the endgame.
What is the most useful Rapport in Lost Ark?
The most useful Rapport NPCs in Lost Ark are those that give you stat potions. Some NPCs will give out stat potions when you reach a specific Rapport Level, while others give out collectibles you can use to get stat potions.
Beatrice, Nineveh, Sasha, Nia, and Calvasus are some of the most desirable Rapport NPCs in Lost Ark. Most of these NPCs warrant a Rapport Skip, especially Nineveh, as her Rapport requirements can get very challenging as you progress.
Conclusion
Whether you go for the Rapport Skip with Sasha depends on how urgently you need the Rapport rewards she offers. If you’re not in a hurry, you can Rapport with Sasha using only Rapport Music and Emotes. Doing so will eventually get you the 3rd Giant’s Heart, 100-Gold Coin, and Harmony Battle Engraving Recipe Pouch.
