2. Obtain The Song of Trixion
After reaching level 30, following the main storyline, players will reach an NPC named Minstrel Allegro. This NPC will provide players with an item named “The Song of Trixion”, as seen below.
3. Go To Beatrice In Trixion
Click on the item in your inventory to play the music and learn the song. After this point, players will need to open up their music book and play the song to teleport them to Trixion.
4. Select Training
Players will need to speak with Beatrice and select the Training icon. Many players can miss this section entirely, as they may very well just continue with the quests and main storyline.
Clicking on the Training icon will trigger a small pop-up prompt, as seen above. Select “OK” to head to the Training Grounds area. You’ll be met with a range of tabs and options, all of which can be used to customize your Training experience.
How Do You Practice Skills In the Lost Ark Training Room?
Once you get into the Training Room, you will be able to select from a variety of options for builds, skills, engravings, and more – including those you do not already have on your character. There are a variety of tabs that players can use to change up different elements of their character and build.
Training Zone Options
Players will need to use the main vertical tab on the right-hand side of the screen to change their Training Zone experience and manage the builds they’re testing. The main elements of the Training Zone instance can be altered to your liking and playstyle preference.
As you continue to tamper with other settings in Training Mode, the Training Zone settings tab will display ‘Modified’. Players can choose to test out their Modified character, or test out the Current build, making the Training Room a great way to test out existing builds for general use, or imaginative builds for later on.
Skills
Players can test out every available skill in the game with their character, including high-tiered and endgame content. The player’s skill points will not affect their options, as they can choose whatever they’d like – the skill points will simply dip into the negative.
Engravings
You can choose whichever engravings you’d like to try out on your build, and all engravings can be maxed out to level 3 as well. This includes class engravings, which would generally only be playable after hitting level 50 in-game.
Character Feature Settings
Players can choose to change the stats of their character as well. You can max out Crit, Agility, or whatever you feel fits best for your build (Shift + Left Click will max out the stat).
Summon Monster
Once you’re happy with your Training build and are ready to go, head to the “Monster” section in the main Training Zone tab o the right. You’ll have the choice to summon a range of monster types, including standard enemies or even a Raid Boss.
In this way, players can test out different builds for different settings and encounters. Try out standard builds for adventuring and battling mobs, or check out your build or future builds’ efficiency for Raids.
If you’re looking for a dummy-type enemy that acts as a target, the Scarecrow would be the ideal choice. These monsters will remain in one position and will not attack players, acting as a target dummy for testing out builds.

Lost Ark Training Room Advantages
Unlocking and participating in the Training Zone does take a smaller amount of effort – reaching level 30 and progressing in the main questline. But, considering the amazing level of freedom that players are given in the Training Zone, the entire experience and availability are completely worthwhile.
The Training Room can save you a ton of time, effort, indecisive moments, and Lost Ark currency, as it features unlimited resources and unlimited cooldowns – in addition to the freedom of customization available. Players can test out builds and classes before committing fully, and save out on endgame or expensive resources like engraving books in the future.
Lost Ark has a plethora of choices and character build styles for players to enjoy, but the level of customizability concerning build can also lead to disappointment later down the line. It’s not uncommon for players to feel somewhat let down after working so hard to create the ‘class build of their dreams’.
With the Training Room, players can test out everything they could possibly want for their character and class in Lost Ark, without the need for expenses or time spent grinding the game. It’s an incredible feature in Lost Ark that all players should be using, whether you’re still taking on lower levels of the game or are an endgame player testing out ways to increase your performance and build overall.
