Lost Ark has released in NA/EU now and players are ecstatic to experience the world of Arkesia. There’s a lot that this game offers right from in-depth character customization to boss fights, ship upgrades and more. If you have played the beta versions, you might be wondering if there’s any way to copy those character customization preset settings and bring them into the release version? Find out more about it here.
Can you Copy Character Customization Preset Settings in Lost Ark?
If you have saved your character customization settings from the NA, EU beta or Kor/Jap/Rus version, here’s how to copy them and carry them over into the release version of the game. Make sure that you keep the original files saved as a backup in case things go wrong.
- Copy the \EFGame\Customizing folder from the beta client and paste it into \steam\steamapps\common\Lost Ark\EFGame\Customizing. It should be a .cus file.
- Doing this will help you get the presets for your character in Lost Ark.

If you would like to use your Kor/Jap/Rus files, all you have to do is edit the .cus file via notepad and type USA instead of KOR/JAP/RUS. (Thanks to Monke on Lost Ark Forum and u/pikmim3 on Reddit for sharing.)
Important: Now, it seems that this is working for a few players and for some, the game is crashing. User Alcad says – Fair warning. I’ve heard from several people that they completely changed the presets for certain faces and hairs for NA from RU and such, so it’s entirely possible that your RU preset will be broken or just entirely not working if you import it into NA client.
If things don’t work out as expected, revert the changes and use the original files that you have backed up which have no edits. If you feel like you are okay with taking the risk, go ahead and follow the aforementioned steps. Otherwise, you can simply remake the character customization manually.
