LAN? Probably not. I had enough packing my PC around in my day to keep going to LAN parties. plus PC's are so heavy and much more fragile now.

[simple jolt]

lastepochtools.com has many smite builds to pick from

[compact dawn]

Tempted to make a sentinal thorns flasher build for the memes

[crimson orchid]

Yeah, but my autistic brain is just having a hard time with it :p
If it doesn't fit in the square box, ima flip a switch and throw the pc out the window lmao

Do you know if this will receive an update for next patch?

[night marten]

Well the patch it thursday not tomorrow so

[ripe sun]

@simple bison this isn't the endorsement it sounds like. I've seen Kain play the game...

The things I have endured for Last Epoch

[glass bough]

seriously ?? Same errors they had on lauch day ?

[severe socket]

I'm a laptop user so I would love it if the game was LAN-coop-compatible, but alas.

[tall otter]

ah ok, my flavor on the spectrum is numbers and patterns, so maybe I just like building my own. I also play a lot of meme builds and don't push end game too hard

[glass bough]

a year later lol what a joke XD

[glass pendant]

Lemme recommend a build as well

umbral blades fal...

anyways hi

[simple bison]

Is it worse than Mike's build that took 13 minutes to kill campaign lagon? Surely nobody has power beyond that

[glacial crow]

@night marten I thought it was 20th

[crimson orchid]

Mad props to that! I'm incapable of balancing shit right 😄

[jade flare]

umbral blades is kill

no

[night marten]

No. If you read the news its a service provider issue. Nothing on ehgs side.

[lilac whale]

How do you think this will do for season 3?

[livid ferry]

Who is the service provider? 😄

[astral sky]

Paladin had some small nerfs but mostly to judgment, shouldn’t affect this build much

[simple jolt]

with deadly crits probably really good adioz

[glass pendant]

with dive bomb requiring the entire animation to play, shroud stacking seems dead. people are talking about trapper tech

[livid ferry]

AWS? GCP?

[simple bison]

Me

[lilac whale]

maxroll has it falconer umbral blades on B tier

[severe socket]

Reminds me of Crate's Grava always forgetting to re-enable his auras after getting manhandled by random stuff on screen.

[glass bough]

Dunno I have the LE-51 and 61 Vietnam Flashbacks at the moment lol

[night marten]

Nope. As it says in #news it is on the 21st. And nearly every other post. And their countdown on their website

[coarse swallow]

I'm not sure what you mean by this? If you're interested in what issues we encountered in 1.0, and how we addressed it, we posted a post-mortem here: https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/1-0-launch-retrospective/69374

[plucky schooner]

game is not working for me, anyone else has the same problem?

[glacial crow]

Wait server is going down for 24 hours? That's insane lol I figured when servers go down for latch new season was gonna be same day lol crazy

[livid ferry]

Judd needs to call service provider and tell them to plug the server back in 😄

[frozen lichen]

server issue bruh

[simple jolt]

LE launch hits different

[night marten]

Ah yes. The same error code is always for the same reason and always the game devs fault. Definately couldnt be a second reason things dont work

[simple bison]

Been like that every launch

I remember fartnut outage for a whopping 72 hours with nothing but a black hole in it.

[glass pendant]

I'm tempted to try lb, it seems strong. does it abuse wall snapshot?

[crimson orchid]

Maaan, I can see how I've been spoiled by PoE's flashiness, when I watch these stuff, and you guys tell me it's flashy 😂

[compact dawn]

If you want "can't see what is going on" then it might be harder to find in this game

[simple bison]

It's definitely doable

[glass pendant]

I think people have selective attention sometimes. server maintenance on news, nobody catches wind

[compact dawn]

true, just not the go to

[glass pendant]

if that was the season launch announcement

nobody would miss it

[astral sky]

It’s flashier when the screen is full of mobs and its lightning

[crimson orchid]

The Mad Lightning Runemaster looks pretty nice

[severe socket]

Palpatine much?

[crimson orchid]

Palpatine?

if you want crazy randomness flashy, the wild mage runemaster is the way to go

↑StarWars-unaware person spotted

[compact dawn]

you can spam runic invocations basically, it gets pretty crazy, not sure if really end game viable 😛

[crimson orchid]

Oh, no I was just wondering of the connection, but yeah, the flashy hands 😅

[compact dawn]

There isn't any great uniques for random invocations

[severe socket]

UNNNNNLIMITEDDDDDD POWWWAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!

[wet mauve]

there's a new build that spams chaos bolts. It's gonna be very fun and seizure inducing

[jade flare]

mana stacking flay...something right?

[dusty edge]

Anyone else on loggin screen who cannot log into server? It's an endless logging.. When would be able to play?

[severe socket]

Can attest, that one was the purest form of cancer in that one coop I somehow managed to land.

[wet mauve]

I think so yeah, it's something like 30 chaos bolts a sec

[crimson orchid]

Ohh sounds fun

[night marten]

When ever the #news is fixed. Should look there for your answer

[compact dawn]

Just to be clear, LoA isn't asking for flashy, they are asking for screen cancer

[dusty edge]

I Already saw that. but it's been 4 hours since then

It will be updated when it's resolved

[compact dawn]

Bar is so low, Hades is using it to play limbo

[night marten]

Use true offline mode thru steam properties

[steep river]

Right click on Last Epoch on Steam -> Properties -> in General set Selected Launch Option to "Play Full Offline." Then try starting it up game again. That will allow you to play offline without connecting to LE server first.

[night marten]

🤷‍♂️

[severe socket]

...yeah, no, the current one is better by an epoch slide.

[wet mauve]

i got to it from google. and didn't want to login if it wasn't.

[coarse swallow]

https://portal.lastepoch.com/ is the website for managing your Last Epoch account.

[steep river]

Yes. It leads to this page.

[wet mauve]

thanks guys.

[steep river]

The https://twitch.lastepoch.com/ page for linking your Steam and Twitch for the Twitch drops is also legit.

[steep river]

how did you guess it was hunter2 ?!?

gasp!

[compact dawn]

lol

[coarse swallow]

There's a few subdomains for different items, such as the migration subdomain. The main thing is that yes, we do own the https://lastepoch.com domain. IIRC it shouldn't be possible for another party to list a subdomain without modifying your browser client (eg. virus, malware). Though I've been out of the web loop for a while, and something may have been found.

[night marten]

And this is why i dont answer 'is this site safe' questions

[livid ferry]

Unless you own the root domain, you can't create subdomains

[coarse swallow]

If my old knowledge is still true, the top level domain will always be resolved first, and our directory is treated as master for any subdomains

[livid ferry]

DNS for subdomains is resolved at the root domain

[glass pendant]

is this a computer science lecture for free?

[livid ferry]

more like networking

If you're OK with me scraping my brain for information from 10+ years ago that may or may not be accurate due to infiltration of BEEEEES in the brain.

It didn’t work.

[final sandal]

server still cant login?

[tawdry gazelle]

server still down i guess?

[compact dawn]

Yes, the news post will be updated once it's back up

[steep river]

Hmm, it's working for me. I get this Play Offline screen and it takes me to my old offline characters.

[final sandal]

yeah its work

im just playing offline mode

[steep river]

Great!

[ripe sun]

I don't even want to imagine digging up my old offline characters. Some recipes are best left uncooked and forgotten

We are still working with providers to bring services back online. Our apologies for the interruption.

Hah, feel like Gandalf, I have no memory of this

[tawdry peak]

do ur job, were good

There's some interesting stuff in here, pretty sure this druid is a Str stacking Cold DoT Werebear

[glacial crow]

Anyone know if abom build next season will be snapshotting?

[glass pendant]

It will not

[glacial crow]

Ahh that's nice maybe it'll be fun to play

[onyx glade]

Not snapshotting gear, but snapshotting skills is not being fixed in S3

[compact dawn]

there is a very niche possible snapshot with skeletons > Abom > aarons will

[glass pendant]

yeah I wish all instances of snapshotting were resolved

[glacial crow]

What do you mean genwa

Swapping gear and idols before summons then swapping?

[fickle bear]

yes now work nice!

[steep wedge]

is Lightning Spear getting nerfed?

[night marten]

I dont specifically remember anything in the patch notes but you could just lool at the patch notes

[steep wedge]

Thanks!

[onyx glade]

gear snapshotting - like idols and stuff is fixed in S3. Changing Skill points is still a thing. There is some info on https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/abomination-necromancer-guide#gameplay-header

[viral marsh]

lools at the patch notes

[compact dawn]

changing skill points really isn't very practical though

[glacial crow]

Ah interesting thanks. Maybe minions will be fine to play now without being too annoying

[rigid cobalt]

hey guys for some reason the "play offline" option doesnt work either despite the report mentioning playing online is the one broken is it just me

[glacial crow]

Go to properties and launch options then switch to full offline mode

[compact dawn]

play offline isn't the same as full offline

[worthy narwhal]

minions are being buffed for season 3

[glacial crow]

Right click on game from steam

[steep river]

The current server outage is unplanned, but there is a server maintenance planned for tomorrow August 20 starting at 11 AM CDT (UTC-5) for 24 hours until the Season 3 launch on August 21 at 11 AM CDT (UTC-5). You can use the Full Offline to continue to play offline during the planned maintenance, if you're interested.

[rigid cobalt]

is there a way to continue playing the same character this way though?

[steep river]

As a work around: Right click on Last Epoch on Steam -> Properties -> in General set Selected Launch Option to "Play Full Offline." Then try starting it up game again. That will allow you to play offline without connecting to LE server first. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/414295382625878037/1407466271506829372/image.png?ex=68a6349c&is=68a4e31c&hm=c52cced488986fbb465cb2fc6206f03a56266adb8ea0846f5d2fd51725ac47ca&

[rigid cobalt]

because it just takes me to class select

[fathom trellis]

When can you start playing online?

[compact dawn]

yes, better AI (toggle near minion icon) and better items for them and updates to abom and compainions

[steep river]

If the character is offline, yes. Online, not until the server outage is fixed.

[fickle bear]

I guess the smartest option is to play offline until the new season starts.

[rigid cobalt]

alright thanks everyone

[steep river]

As soon as the server outage is resolved. #news message

[fathom trellis]

Will I be coming for a long time?

[compact dawn]

The translation is a bit rough lol

[steep river]

The current server outage was not planned and is an issue with a service partner. As soon as the issue is fixed, online should be working again until the planned maintenance tomorrow.

[fathom trellis]

Ty ❤️

[simple jolt]

11:59 - servers back up! 12:00 - servers down for maintenance!

[undone trellis]

Better today than thursday

[wet mauve]

ah yes we're doing monos with glass cannon javelin.
With no uniques cause they were rare back then. With all our stats into damage. And wondering why we are dying so much.

[gray comet]

That wouldnt be a bad thing. means it isnt a major issue

[uneven otter]

It's server back online ?

[steep wedge]

I still haven to been able to successfully make a DoT build 😄 i know there are tons of guides out there but, i think its just i dont understand how damage scaling works and ailment stack work, even after watching numerous YT videos hahahaha!!!

[simple jolt]

the trick is to find a skill with lots of more damage modifiers. makes scaling them way easier

[steep wedge]

yeah, i kinda hate that most builds use the same skills because of the "more damage" modifier thing

[simple jolt]

yeah i get you there but that's the inevitable meta

[steep wedge]

hmmm i see

[simple jolt]

starting there is good though. the more you learn the more off meta you can go

[steep wedge]

thats the stuff i like, off meta haha!

[viral iris]

Oh, so the servers are actually down now, glad it's not just me

[wet mauve]

that's why I like build guides.
Not to follow, but to see what works and why.

then experiment

[devout mulch]

Starting from season 3 we will be able to use cosmetics in offline mode, right?

[simple jolt]

that's how i hit theory crafting most of the time as well

[steep wedge]

awesome

[honest belfry]

correct

[devout mulch]

[heady bough]

👀 woah, Lots of EHG on

Scary

[compact dawn]

not that uncommon before a big patch

[heady bough]

panick tiem

[compact dawn]

or during meetings, or server issues, which pretty much all true currently

[heady bough]

better to have server issues today than 2 days from now 🤔

[compact dawn]

very true

[ripe sun]

Stop it before you curse us to both

[devout mulch]

Online mode has nothing „extra” to offer now, so offline will be superior, especially for deck players like myself

[steady ferry]

Poe really poisoned trade for most players

[compact dawn]

Not sure what you mean by that

[simple jolt]

it's like a whole thing. probably a docutube video on it

but there's a lot of history with poe trading

[honest belfry]

Hey everyone! Servers are back online! Please check out #news

[compact dawn]

Well I'm aware of most of PoE's trading history, been playing since beta, just not sure what he means by poisoned trade. LE's trade is very different from PoE's

[simple jolt]

peer to peer trading is most likely what is being refered to

[wet mauve]

Wooo

[compact dawn]

I'd argue that trade in LE is pretty solid except for the search options (which they are helping fix this patch) and the fact CoF is so solid especially with weaver tree that trade doesn't feel super strong anymore.

[simple jolt]

solid take

[ripe sun]

I love CoF with every ounce of arpg fan in me

[wet mauve]

I love cof. I usually hate ssf

[compact dawn]

Weaver tree solidified CoF even more. Being able to target farm specific things in addition to prophecies and improved drop chances.

[simple jolt]

i like the passive aspect of cof but rolling prophecies needs work

[wet mauve]

For sure. We need like a weaver tree but for cof.

[compact dawn]

That might be a bit much, leaving trade in the dust

[simple jolt]

trade will always have perfect idols

[compact dawn]

they are pretty balanced now I think

[wet mauve]

Nah i dont mean as powerful.
But more of a focus on what content you do and what to focus on.

Or atleast add quest tracking for prophecies

[compact dawn]

The tracking is just QOL that I would happly support

[tidal pagoda]

What’s better for beast master leveling/early farming? Wolves or solo pet?

[wet mauve]

I heard tornado bear is a good starter.

[simple jolt]

more minions is better in the beginning

[eternal palm]

I went with Raptor and wolves until I got scorpian, now its Raptor, scorp and the rest wolves with the fang equipped.

[tidal pagoda]

I know respeccing is easy but I wanna play something close to what I’m actually gonna play. Not do a full swap

[simple jolt]

one minion is really slow until you have good support on your gear

[tidal pagoda]

Yeah. The wolves uniques are pretty common and low level. Figured it might be fine.

[simple jolt]

you can level with solo scorpion though. use swipe to trigger the aoe poison nova every 2 seconds is legit

[eternal palm]

^^

[tidal pagoda]

Gonna go Jurassic park end game with a trex and raptor packs.

[eternal palm]

I've actually been thinking about dipping into druid for spriggan and vines for poison as well.

[final sandal]

Good Job Dev

here we go

[compact dawn]

Yeah if you don't want to respec then just use what works for your later build. The story part is pretty easy anyways, trying to min/max for story is kind of silly

[tidal pagoda]

The fact that the raptor sword is one handed is so nice lol. I’ve never been a minion fan but this build has me excited

[hollow cloak]

Could anyone tell me when the twitch drops for new season start?

[glossy steppe]

Man, just my luck... I have tomorrow off for my Bday and was going to get a good bit of gaming in with LE. But not with the servers being down for 24hrs....lol.

[compact dawn]

? servers are back up

oh you mean for the pre-patch

[glossy steppe]

yeah, the one in the news announcement

[compact dawn]

yeah, kind of sucks, but hey if you have the weekend off least you have a new patch to play

[final sandal]

Server is up

[mild oar]

last season i couldn't buy perfect idols since everybody snatched then up. this was late season though. might be able to get perfect early on. was also playing ES VK so pretty popular pick so it would make sense nobody would sell them

[glossy steppe]

I took two days off, so at least on Thursday at 11am when they bring the servers back up, i can start for a while.

[honest belfry]

Would you like me to write you a doctor's note?

[compact dawn]

Dr. Wick

[glossy steppe]

If I knew they would take it I would say heck yeah...lol

[broken siren]

i took time off work for LE too

[honest belfry]

"Dr.Wick says I can't work today on account of my goldfishen-epoch-ollidus... it's very rare."

[glossy steppe]

Very rare indeed

[compact dawn]

Just write a note in extreme chicken scratch, it's par for course for dr's

not your fault they can't read it 😛

[honest belfry]

Now THAT I can do. I have the handwriting of a 7 year old

are you going to get the new xbox handheld? I want a deck but i want more performance than it offers currently

i don't take time off but LE makes work way more interesting. tomorrow will be a slow day =\

[steep wedge]

lol i work from home

[simple jolt]

same here

[compact dawn]

Hah same, unless I take my time and write in block lettering

[steep wedge]

so I have LE opened all day hahaha

[elfin wadi]

life has no meaning rn

[compact dawn]

It's not that uncommon I have a game acidently loaded in another desktop that I forgot about, then I start wondering my my performance is so bad.

[honest belfry]

What do you mean?

[elfin wadi]

last epoch gives meaning to life

now im just waiting for the update

i cant wait

[honest belfry]

Servers are back up haha you can jump in now

[elfin wadi]

oh i thought they stay 24 hr down

[honest belfry]

no that's tomorrow

[elfin wadi]

😭 oh idk why i wasnt able to login today

few hours ago i meant

[severe socket]

Had it ever?

[honest belfry]

There was a server outtage but we got it fixed. Servers will shut down (correctly) tomorrow at 11am CDT

[sharp hedge]

im so excited for this update, learned to speedrun through the campaign, cant wait

[honest belfry]

You have a whole new chapter to learn now 🙂

[elfin wadi]

aah i thought its comign a bit early hahahaha mb, thanks alot for letting me know, also u guys are goated for the performance updates ive read in the patch notes

been struggling with stutters in late game, not that many devs care about optimization nowadays but u guys did

[honest belfry]

It's easy to forget, our studio was built by gamers. It's still run by us. If it frustrates you, it frustrates us and we aim to fix it fast

[elfin wadi]

well just to let u guys know that note about performance made me n my friends come back to the game and im sure alot will keep up the good work

[glossy steppe]

I really like the aRpg games like this but I am never very good at them, but I keep playing them. I have to use guides cause I can't figure it out on my own so been waiting for interesting guides to come available to the new release and start fresh.

[elfin wadi]

maxroll website can provide u with good builds and in depth guides u can follow to make it work, if u give it a bit of time and read u should understand it all no prob and even make ur own builds after it

[glossy steppe]

I look there and also at the Last Epoch Tools site

[steep wedge]

I feel the same way. Lately thought I've been trying to come up with my own build, but it just doesnt make any sense lol

[elfin wadi]

no shame in following builds tho

fun is what matters

[unique sphinx]

guys, at launch. the offline mode will have all the content from online?

[rigid cobalt]

on the inverse, is it possible to go through the game without a guide?

[inner finch]

Yes.

[rigid cobalt]

i come from poe where it was all pretty difficult for me without a guide so idk

[forest parrot]

.> Still gonna dip to do monos after chapter 7, but I am looking forward to doing chapter 10 later. Hoping there's some interesting story stuff

[inner finch]

Very much so

[rigid cobalt]

glad to know that

[forest parrot]

Absolutely

[inner finch]

Also just so you know - LE contains an in game wiki for a reason

Don't understand a word or a term? Hit G

Type it

[rigid cobalt]

damn i didnt know that thanks

[glossy steppe]

Oh nice, did not know that. Thx

[rigid cobalt]

im still only like 7 houts in

[honest belfry]

I promise you there is. It'll be a good time

[glossy steppe]

My old self better write that down or I'll forget

[simple jolt]

i want to walk on the chains. that looks so cool

[glossy steppe]

I either want to do a Acolyte Minion build or a sorcerer type build. Those always seem to be my goto builds

[simple jolt]

great time to run a minion build

[compact dawn]

yeah minions will be solid this patch

just about any version of them

except totems 🤷‍♂️ not sure if they are getting any love

[simple jolt]

well they should be tankier at the very least

[compact dawn]

true

[glossy steppe]

I always stalled out on the first boss guy. I got to get better somehow. I embarrass myself on that...lol

[compact dawn]

first boss before town?

or the one after the gardens?

I can't help you on the one before the town, but for the one after gardens staying close is better then far away

[glossy steppe]

I don't remember his name. After town when you go down and help the guards and the old scholar guy

[simple jolt]

i just reroll for hours until i get a harbinger in the first area with a firestarters torch (/s)

[compact dawn]

oh him, in the vault. Just need to keep distance if you can when he slams

[simple jolt]

some classes have a harder time in the beginning as well

[compact dawn]

the early guys can be rough if you don't get any drops

might be worth farming some of the areas a few times to get some gear to drop, you can always port to town and back to the zone to get the zone to reset

[glossy steppe]

I will try that next time

[simple jolt]

if you go acolyte use wandering spirits early. just spec the cooldown node to use it more. it does a ton of damage in the first few levels

[glossy steppe]

Sounds good

Are we able to play in offline mode then while the patch is going on tomorrow?

[compact dawn]

full offline mode, yes

[bold dew]

Does anyone know about how big the update on Thursday is going to be? Have they given that information anywhere?

[compact dawn]

you have to right click the game in steam and select properties, in the general tab should be launch options, select full offline

[glossy steppe]

All I have seen is 11am cst Wednesday to 11am cst Thursday

In the News channel I saw it.

[pine fox]

CDT, but, yeah

[wet mauve]

They legit made uber hillock in the recent gauntlet.

It was hillock buffed up with maven abilities.

I actually died lol

[compact dawn]

The number 1 killer in the guantlet was Hillick, followed by Hillock's maven, followed by Hillocks Zombies 😛

Hillock The Twilight Strand 158,017
Hillock's Maven The Twilight Strand 28,203
Hillock's Zombies The Twilight Strand 21,203
Fire Fury The Coast 15,731
Sand Spitter The Twilight Strand 12,732

[civic moat]

maybe Hillocks dinos next

[compact dawn]

sand spitters in the starting zone got 5th 😛

[wet mauve]

They gave hillock leap slam so him being a primalist is not far off

Hillocks raptors

[frosty ridge]

Is the game getting anymore challenging or is it the same as last season?

[compact dawn]

If you are asking if there is any new pinnacle content then the answer is I don't think so.

[wanton moss]

this game reminds me of elden ring

[uneven grove]

why for the love of god is the T8 primordials i want to use a t8 and the new uniques at the same time RREEEEEEEEEE

[inland grail]

i havent played since launch, do i do judgement paladin or raptor beastmaster

[simple jolt]

well with raptors you can constantly say "clever girl" so

[inland grail]

you make a good point

[left flint]

You do what you think looks awesome both those builds will get you to where ever you want

[inland grail]

both look fun in different ways, thats the struggle haha

[left flint]

Im going raptors to level then the frog build look into that one, a army of frogs sounds fun 🐸

[inland grail]

whattt theres frogs?

[stoic frigate]

Chorus of Anurok

The greatest item ever made

[inland grail]

im watching a video on this rn it sounds hype

too bad its not launching on wednesday

for maximum frog

[deft bobcat]

[inland grail]

ok yeah im sold, thanks

[mint carbon]

after krafton bought it will it be worth to play trade again ? i like it but there's ALWAYS a glitch or bug dublicate gold or RMT and trade server bugs/stop

[bold moth]

rmt is always gonna exist in some form

[mint carbon]

last season after they fixed some atlas map bug red ring price was tripled

[bold moth]

red ring was really easy to farm last season after you got 1

[mint carbon]

i was trade but although i farmed alot it never dropped i bought one 0lp and tried to get another from map but it never happened so i made another char with cof and finished game with it

even in my cof char didnt get it but i was playing another class that didnt need it

[lost plume]

I would love it if this game came to consoles

but that will be another some years

[mint carbon]

i dont think it would take that much because krafton bought it

[lost plume]

true true

[wet mauve]

woo just got the big supporter pack

[fathom brook]

good job for spending money

[wet mauve]

[trail cradle]

Should squirrels/mini-raptors get the full buffs from t-rex? Or will it be reduced (half for squirrels, 40-whatever% for raptors) like the rest of their stats?

[steel crystal]

Any got a count down till season starts?

[trail cradle]

*35% less damage for squirrels, 42-47% less for mini raptors

[tough frost]

best resources for build guides? I see only 4 for 1.3 on LE tools and some for Maxroll 🥲 I knwo LE is a smaller game, but dang

[trail cradle]

I don't think any builds were fully nuked, older guides should still be usable

[trail cradle]

https://lastepoch.com/

[tough frost]

tons of new minion build potentials tho. i see a ton of talk about it, but no real guides/templates. I tried making a few, but I'm not fully feeling my own build LOL

[ruby pine]

maxroll has dozens of guides posted

[trail cradle]

That's what I mean though, all the old builds are still good, they just get even better with new primordials or a few skill tweaks

[ruby pine]

they already updated most of the build guides tbh

theres also dozens of community planners

[tough frost]

are these the ones under "builds" in LE tools?

[ruby pine]

on maxroll

[tough frost]

oh i see, ty 🙂

[ruby pine]

but yes theres also a ton of planners on LE tools

[tough frost]

ye, this is the issue with community planners tho lmao. Tough to see who actually knows what they're doing. The first build I bring up on Maxroll has TWO primordial uniques equipped XD

[trail cradle]

respeccing is so easy that you really can't go wrong doing your own thing, or just following an old guide until new ones come out

[tough frost]

very true. will probably just try to start with a forge guard summoner and eventually play a beastmaster. Either EQ bear, frogs, or something else

[little thunder]

So Im still going Necromancer in Last Epoch but none of the maxroll builds are something that excites me. Summoning a bunch of minions to make one giga minion sounds mid. I think im going to make a frost minion army build and run with it. This is where ARPG's need to expand their minds to make more than just a few meta builds when there is so much potential.

[wet mauve]

I'll have you know that my build is great.
Just don't ask about the damage.

[tough frost]

thankfully it wasn't yours 🥲

[clear drum]

Can't wait to play the new season.

[wet mauve]

It's all good, just jesting that maybe my build could use some work too.

[tough frost]

oh the ones I make are absolutely atrocious. I just don't feel like slogging through content because idk how to make a build lol

[wet mauve]

I've always been good at scaling defenses in the arpgs I play.
I was doing t16s in poe2 with like 20k dmg.

Which is like bringing a rubber knife to a gun fight.

[tough frost]

I also don't really know what endgame defenses are supposed to look like. like poe is max res, some type of armor/es/evasion, life/ES on block, etc. Having some type of phys/ele per hit defense, etc.

Here, I'm like, oh I have 3k hp on this build. idk what my sustain even looks like.

[steep flare]

Recovery is huge in LE, whether leech, healing, or regen. Because DoT damage goes crazy hard here, but it's calculated smoothly so recovery directly counters it

[tough frost]

other than max res on everything and some HP, idk what things are supposed to look like

[steep flare]

I would even say that having at least a decent source of recovery is prob higher priority than resists

Ward generation also counts

[broken trench]

dont need res if you dont get 1 shot

[wet mauve]

yeah the game isn't like poe where capped resists is the bare minimum for a build to function.

[trail cradle]

100% crit avoidance or 80%+ reduced crit damage are the "cap resists" from poe. For LE resists don't need to be capped at all since 5% missing res just means 5% more damage, not 20% like poe

like capped is still good, but if you're at 72% don't sweat it

[tough frost]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/oPbwkegQ

Like look how bad this build is LOL. missing so much hp and recovery

[slow cloud]

[wet mauve]

You want sustain, sources of dr if you can. Especially if you want to be tanky.
And lots of layers of defenses.

Depending on the build, this can be fraility on hit, endurance, armor (and armor applies to dot), etc. etc.

[trail cradle]

armor is really strong

[wet mauve]

<@&1161418687471956101>

[tough frost]

wtf LOL\

[lime spoke]

Hey everyone, I have a question, I just bought the game, I wanted to know what I need to activate so that my solo drops are higher. I saw a video that mentioned something you could activate to increase the drop rate, but you wouldn't be able to interact with other players.

[trail cradle]

like I really can't overstate how strong armor is

[wet mauve]

The biggest killer in the game has been dots because armor doesn't apply to dots before recent patches iirc.

[steep flare]

There's an item faction later called Circle of Fortune. It doesn't keep you from interacting with other players tho

[tough frost]

it is something you get in act 9 called Circle of Fortune

[trail cradle]

isadoras belt gives something like 200 flat armor and up to 35% more armor which makes it extremely useful

[steep flare]

It still doesn't apply to DoTs. There are just sources of items and such that give you "X% of armor applies to dots"

[wet mauve]

it's towards the end of the campaign

[wet mauve]

well yeah but that's common now. You can even cap it at 100%.
that wasn't always true is what I mean.

[lime spoke]

When you're going to create the character, what are those challenges to select? Should I choose one or ignore it?

[steep river]

Circle of Fortune item faction. Note you can still interact with other players, such as if you wanted to play online with friends. But Circle of Fortune doesn't have the item buying/selling Bazzar that Merchant's Guild item faction has.

On the first character in a game mode / shared stash, you'll need to reach Chapter 9, Maj'Elka Upper District. There you can join Merchant's Guild or Circle of Fortune. On subsequent characters in the same game mode / shared stash, they will be able to join an item faction in the first town in Chapter 1, Keeper's Camp.

[trail cradle]

ignore the challenges, just create a seasonal character on thursday

[steep flare]

I think only sentinel can cap it? But yeah, the availability has slowly crept up over time

[tough frost]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/build-guides/the-forgelord---forged-weapons-forge-guard

Planning to follow this guide at first. Might change the weapon to that new primordial 2H

[lime spoke]

thanks guyss ❤️

[trail cradle]

also if you haven't played before just go in blind, skip the guides

[wet mauve]

Yeah, the new ammy gives a source of 21% of armor applies to dot to any class tho.

• acolyte reworks adds a lot of dot DR.

Dot mitigation is getting to be in a good place. Maybe too good.

[wet mauve]

last epoch is casual enough that guides aren't necessary for sure.

[trail cradle]

especially while you're leveling

[steep flare]

My rough prio on defenses is like

1. Life recovery or ward generation. If not getting one-shot, this is all that matters.
2. 100% crit avoidance, or reduced damage taken from crits (one or the other, reduced damage doesn't need to be 100% but it helps to be close)
3. Resists
4. Everything else (varies by build). Options include armor, % armor applies to dots, "less damage taken", endurance (only if building for Life), x% of damage taken by highest health minion, and others

[peak timber]

Id say give a look at least at game play for classes.. i mean some of the leveling experiences are just ew looking at you primal.. you dont want to max level something and the gaming experience isnt even your style lol

[steep flare]

And obv max health

Can't forget that I suppose 🙂

[tough frost]

primal might be good after this patch 🥲

[trail cradle]

Really just play whatever looks cool. I can't stand acolyte for some reason but primalist has always been my jam

[wet mauve]

i can't wait to try my lich build.
It's got 35% of damage taken from hits as dot.
50% armor mitigation applies to dot.
1000 regen per sec.
aura of decay on 24/7 for another bunch of dot mitigation.
Blossom to have 4 total damage types taken as phys.
The lsit goes on and on. But it's gonna be legit.

[steep flare]

Lich def lookin' to be the tank mastery of all the casters rn

[peak timber]

Personally im just talking about leveling experience.. im starting primal but the initial leveling is heh

[wet mauve]

not even mentioning foot of the mountain w/ the int to dodge node.

[steep flare]

Instead of regen my plan was to go with leech and the health maxes at 50% thing, since accursed feast sends your leech to the stratosphere

[tough frost]

has anyone ever leveled with forge guard sums? I imagine it will feel smoother than it has, but not sure how unsmooth it was beforehand

[steep river]

Optional extra difficulties.
Hardcore - separate shared HC stash and if you die in HC, your character is transferred out of HC but stash stays in HC.
Solo Account Found - separate shared SAF stash. Can't group with friends, use resonance to trade with friends, or use Merchant's Guild Bazaar.
Solo Character Found. - SAF restrictions plus it's separate stash for each SCF character
You can do multiple as well, such has HC + SAF.

[steep flare]

By default I'd check none of them

[wet mauve]

forge guard is good at kiting monos for a painful experience if nothing else.

but generally pretty good, tanky class.

[steep flare]

Forge Guard the struggle has always just been damage

[tough frost]

very tanky, and i've leveled with him plenty of times, but specifically minions i was thinking of

[peak timber]

I need me a frog mask

[steep flare]

If you die, it's because your character died of sheer boredom waiting for the enemy to die

[tawny hill]

Anyone have a rough idea whats going to be quite strong in new patch?

[wet mauve]

Ye the minions are great, I hear they struggle at higher corruption.
But I was doing 300c just fine with my manifest armor crit build.

[steep flare]

Beastmaster, Void Knight, Paladin, Lich would be my main bets

[tough frost]

sorry, I'm mainly talking about leveling from 15-end of campaign haha. Not sure if I should just level as something else and respec

[wet mauve]

You're not gonna struggle in campaign with fg.

[steep flare]

Leveling do whatever, main limiter on getting through campaign is move speed

I typically just pick a meme gimmick and stick with it until at least monos

[tough frost]

idk about that after testing hydrahedron builds lmfao

the worst leveling experience of my life

[burnt eagle]

FWIW though there are some points at which the mastery respec cost starts outpacing gold on your first character

[steep flare]

I always start with my intended mastery

[wet mauve]

sentinel in general is a good starter.
Fg is tanky.
Other classes tend to have weaker defenses, especially during campaign.

[burnt eagle]

It's not a huge deal but if you're trying to strictly follow some build guide or whatever you can end up in a point where it's "Wait, it costs X to respec and I have X-35k gold", then you level up and now you're even more behind

[tough frost]

sentinel is a dumb starter man, so many freebies on it

[peak timber]

I feel so slow without movement speed on boots and rings while leveling.. id at least suggest that.. and then over level zones to first time play through

[inland depot]

I needs help

[tough frost]

never had that issue. I usually do full respecs right when I get into monos and I always have plenty.

[steep flare]

Always gotta have that zooming move in a build. Teleport, dash, whatever

[inland depot]

With a lvl 75 boss

[peak timber]

Granted if you hit even 80pct quests or clear maps you automatically are over zone

[burnt eagle]

yeah it's usually no big deal (and even then, just the first character is going to run into that unless you're doing SCF), but there are some definitely points at which it can bite you and feel like a problem

[peak timber]

I hate that tidal boss or w.e his name is lol temporal sanctum for sure not to fight that dumby

[steep flare]

The hardest starter is prob bladedancer. Very low defenses of every kind in the tree until well into campaign, needs gear to shore up the weak spots

[trail cradle]

fun though

[steep flare]

Lagon is funny in that he's either the easiest or hardest boss of campaign depending on whether you're melee or not

If ranged, just chill on the stairs except to dodge the moon. If melee, suffer

[trail cradle]

bladedancer is such a cool mastery, it does feel a bit dated though

[peak timber]

Lol i hate fighting him on anything ever since i realized i could skip him it makes me happy inside.

[steep flare]

His damage profile is so weird that a friend I play with has declared that dying to him doesn't count lol

[peak timber]

Lmao

[gentle lotus]

the innate cdr going on blade dance could provide some quick fun builds this season, maybe the new second tier of crit legendary just pop off

[steep flare]

Damage isn't the part of bladedancer that concerns me usually, it's not dying

Always gotta scrounge up gear to cover for that because the tree itself doesn't help you, which makes it rough as a first character in a season

[peak timber]

Never played it.. is it super gear dependant?

[steep flare]

For defenses, yes

For damage, not really

It has very little source of healing/ward generation, dodge is unreliable (and is meaningless on DoTs), leech is only in a couple spots in the tree and won't be reachable until you're lvl 30 or so from how deep it is, very little resists on the passive tree, the only endurance it can get is tied to not being hit, etc

Any time I level a rogue I have to throw on some kind of leech item or maybe a "health on melee hit" if I'm melee or it's just suffering

I basically always run sapping strikes for a time while leveling for the same reason, which means I'm leveling with a 0 mana main move

[peak timber]

Lol i left and thought this chat would have gone farther

[peak timber]

You killed it with talk of blade dancer lol

[steep flare]

💀

dead game class

[simple jolt]

no other class can handle the bbc the same way though, mad props

[stark hamlet]

the hype is real

[viscid harness]

When a new season launches, is the only thing that’s gatekept to a seasonal character just ladder rankings and the new economy?

[steep flare]

For now, yes.

Big uber boss launches are also gatekept until someone beats it on seasonal, and future seasons may have mechanics exclusive to the season.
But neither of those apply this season

The boss thing is a bit of a "who cares" tho since it dies in a week lol

[viscid harness]

I see

[viscid harness]

So it’s subject to change at some point?

[steep flare]

More like, they've already said it will change at some point.
The first few seasons are meant to give us an initial set of endgame mechanics to work with before they do seasons that have mechanics that they might not want to preserve. And if they don't want to preserve them, that means non-seasonal leagues won't have it at all

They'll announce ahead of time if a season will be like that tho, so for now we good

[quartz vortex]

hmm some things on the bingo cards i never even heard off ,guess i havent played LE for quite a while ?

[surreal root]

hoping the new season content will not end in less than a month

[rigid pumice]

I thought it would only last for 3 days?

[south moat]

Some are related to the new content that's coming in the patch

[scarlet folio]

What class is going to be the most best for upcoming season?

[quartz vortex]

ah oke ,, guess find 4 hidden secrets must be new ,, ? or just very unlucky i didnt find them . not that i searched for monthsssss

the one what you enjoy the most >??

i think all of them got upgrades adjustments ,, only read the druid / acolyte , if the others got aswell asjustments i probly be p[laying all again

[south moat]

There are plenty of secrets in the game
like side areas that don't always spawn
some breakable walls that have lore notes behind them (one such in a side area of where you save that mage from the birds)

[solid nova]

Has there been a "what class are you playing in the new patch" poll?

[south moat]

no

[forest parrot]

Yes

Sec, lemme find a link

[solid nova]

😄

[forest parrot]

https://strawpoll.com/e7ZJaRErKg3

[south moat]

Not an official poll like that

Also I'm not touching a single "strawpoll" link I see
Have seen enough scamsites that look like they're strawpoll

[solid nova]

Lol, its fine I clicked it

decent ammount of votes

I can screenshot if u dont wanna click

[forest parrot]

https://imgur.com/a/3QKGtbc

Screenshot of poll results

(had to put it on a site because no image embed permissions)

[solid nova]

nice, ty

[forest parrot]

Summary of results: 33% lich, 25% beastmaster, 10% necromancer, remainder spread across the remaining subclasses relatively evenly (sentinel has slightly more, mage has slightly less)

[main frigate]

It's unexpecting. I have thought more players selected beastmaster

[solid nova]

Makes sense, Im probs gonna go lich

Rlly? I havnt read patchnotes yet so maybe I will change my mind

[forest parrot]

Flicker is apparently more popular than I realized

[jolly harness]

Did the new season already began?

[forest parrot]

About 1.5 days left

[spice spoke]

Why do so many people want to play with Lich?

[quartz vortex]

slurp ? life ?

[forest parrot]

The new skill probably?

[quartz vortex]

but i like the idea of the necromancer abomination not decaying in hp any more , but not much of the fact it absorbs the minions its created from to heal aswell , that beats the purpope of having a necro army AND super unit

[subtle loom]

Come onnnnnn I can’t wait

[main frigate]

New skill + melee damage

[quartz vortex]

dont all classes got a new skills ?

[main frigate]

Masteries with getting your hands dirty (melee) always more popular

[south moat]

no

[quartz vortex]

oh that might explain why i only read the acolyte / druid updates

[main frigate]

The same here so I don't learn lich at all, not a melee lover

[quartz vortex]

oh i love the spint to win builds in any game ,, once i get decent gear to run with it

[south moat]

I'll probably make a flay build at some point
Not as a starter though
Bearquake has that honor

[quartz vortex]

but in many ARPG i play pets first , in any season for starter class

[main frigate]

But melee damage in bladedancer's style is fun It's a bit conflicted

I enjoy bladedancer's melee style only. Still seeking a way to enjoy another melee styles from another masteries.

[quartz vortex]

paladin is spin to win for me , wich mastery i go for all depends on what gear i found meanwhile

[south moat]

Spin to win is comfortable
But I get extremely bored of it by like lvl 70

Doesn't matter if it's me dealing the dmg or summoning forged weapons with it

I guess the sound gets kinda jarring 🤔

[quartz vortex]

i often play music after a while and having the combat sound turned off , not sure if they added sounds for unique drops yet , or that i just forgot they added it already

[static canopy]

what time of Aug 21st for the release date?

[wild moth]

Servers will remain offline until 11 AM central

[south moat]

There's a fancy countdown for the launch at their site

[mint carbon]

its 7PM for me

[south moat]

Yes, same here

[forest parrot]

Loot filter sound coming with season 3 (also coming this patch: ability to configure loot filter beams and map icons)

[mint carbon]

i guess its time to try some lich

[stark hamlet]

https://tenor.com/view/waiting-for-sol-gif-9837195458862971547

[mint carbon]

that's all of us brother

[south moat]

Not me

I'm trying to keep myself busy so I don't end up like that

[mint carbon]

iam watching netflix and play marvel rivals

[quartz vortex]

lootfilter beams ? you mean uniques and legends get their beam , ? or ANY item you select to get a beam >

[steep flare]

You'll be able to put a beam on whatever with loot filter

But like.. careful with it lol
Gets noisy quick

[zealous depot]

The Woven Echoes wont be in the new Season am i right?

[steep flare]

They will be

All seasons thus far were to add new core mechanics that are here to stay

[simple jolt]

every mob is now a rift guardian

[steep flare]

Including this coming season

[south moat]

They will be

[steep flare]

That said, tombs will spawn less often inside non-cemetary echoes

We'll actually get 3 new woven echoes, all related to the new season mechanic

[zealous depot]

Never got the hang of the woven echoes so i need to get more investet in it 🥲

[urban rivet]

i can't wait for Thursday

[errant kelp]

Morning all! I’m keen to back into game , any thoughts / suggestions or ideal classes to play / powerful etc!? Love minions setups but not sure they’re any good!?

[devout mulch]

For me the Steam Deck is enough so I won’t be changing it for now

[balmy arrow]

[south moat]

Yeah, minion setups are good

[void plinth]

whats happens with the chars in online mode when the next season start? will they still exist or deleted? first time for me sry

[wet mauve]

they move to legacy

[south moat]

They'll be moved to legacy and will still be playable
If they're already in legacy nothing happens

Your stash also is moved to legacy and you'll have to merge your stash at the stash

[void plinth]

ok thx

[main frigate]

Still waiting poe 2's overview video of 0.3.0 to decide to play season or legacy

21h left

[inner finch]

You dont. Log into LE

[steel mesa]

I think a week will be long enough for me this season tbh. Unless the 0.3 patch completely FLOPS in which case I'll be back.

(it's very likely I'll still hate the game in 0.3)

[iron ginkgo]

yo btw is there anything in last epoch like split arrow (torchlight infinite) or strafe (diablo 3). if someone isnt familiar with these two examples its basicaly a whirlwind but with arrows instead of beyblade. so you are spewing around arrows like mad and zooming

[forest parrot]

There was a leak earlier today claiming that (among other stuff) GGG is adding sprinting. If you get hit while sprinting, you're knocked to the ground and stunned for a few seconds
Hopefully that's fake because it's such a bad idea

[steep flare]

Would be pretty on brand tho

[forest parrot]

Unfortunately

[steel mesa]

That's on brand with what Jonathan thinks the game should be

Won't be surprised

[iron ginkgo]

and here i thought ggg on brand is zooming around like crazy

[steep flare]

No, tthat's poe1

PoE2 on brand is punishing you for trying to do something neat

[iron ginkgo]

wich is literaly entire ggg

poe 1 is ggg poe 2 is garbage leeching out of poe 1

[steel mesa]

PoE2 shouldn't be giga fast like PoE1 but their refusal to let players move faster than a snail is annoying

[iron ginkgo]

and honestly im pretty sure we shouldnt be talking about poe in last epoch discord

[hardy flume]

What time is the league expected to go live?

[steep flare]

countdown on their website, lastepoch.com

1 day, 8h, 45m

[shadow mason]

Do you mean PoE2 League? 29.08., 10pm CEST
Do you mean LE Season? 20.08. 6pm CEST

[hardy flume]

Le season

Tyty

[south moat]

Well you can
It would just be better to do it in #📚┃off-topic instead of the general channel which is meant for LE talk (and maybe a bit of food talk when we manage to bait the EHG folk to talk about food)

[forest parrot]

Now that we're getting beasts dropping body parts, next season mechanic should be cooking themed
Which primordial unique makes tastier food, t-rex or frogs?

[steep flare]

Bro, brilliant idea for a unique relic: Cookpot. When a minion dies, it is converted to a meal that heals and buffs other nearby minions.

Maybe primalist only, unless we cookin' ghosts

[forest parrot]

Ghost eating also sounds like a fun season mechanic

[south moat]

T-rex steak with some frog legs on the side

[forest parrot]

Forge guard continues to get no love 😭

[wet mauve]

well forged weapons can't eat right?

[forest parrot]

Let me feed my manifested armor forged weapons dangit

[split shard]

Can Weavers will items be slapped in a nemesis using an egg to get more WW?

[steep flare]

Actually, just make themed variants
Epitaph - Creates a memorial when a minion dies, reinforcing those who remain. Acolyte only.
Scrapper - Defeated minions are turned into scrap piles to buff remaining minions. Sentinel only.

That way you can also vary what buffs it gives based on what makes sense for that class

[south moat]

no

nemesis can have WW items but you can't put in any

[steep flare]

If they spawn in a Nemesis they can gain WW when empowered, but you can't egg one

[split shard]

That'll have to do. It's gonna take a lot of fonts of the erased to find what I want 😄

[wet mauve]

how are we supposed to hate on forged weapons with this?

[split shard]

I mgiht even use those trash crit nodes in weaver tree this season.

[steep flare]

Life, uh, finds a way

[forest parrot]

But never into the forge guard section of the patchnotes 😔

[sudden gust]

Can some one tell when league start in CET 24 time?)

[tender sparrow]

32 hours left

Sooo long

[south moat]

At like... 18:00 ?

[tender sparrow]

Feels like a day and a half is left

[sudden gust]

Thx.

[south moat]

There's a fancy countdown on their site that you can check whenever

[sudden gust]

Oh... I don't know about it.) Thx one more time.

[wet mauve]

can't wait for servers to go down.
I'll twiddle my thumbs.

[tender sparrow]

Cant wait to play the first zone multiple times till i hit level 10

[south moat]

Good lord I can already see the amount of people coming to the discord to complain why servers down, why can't log in

[main frigate]

GGG release their 0.3.0 overview video when le's server is down. Cool because We can find something to do when waiting le's 1.3 live

[south moat]

I'm pretty sure the rifts don't start spawning when you hit lvl 10
but when you get to the zone that's lvl 10

[tender sparrow]

No last league start i kept dc when trying to enter first town so i just kept trying and kept leveling up.

[tender sparrow]

How is that looking

[main frigate]

I'm waiting GGG to announce how many new acts will they release

[tender sparrow]

Is poe 2 any good?

I am a poe one player and had like /24 days play this league and quit like a week ago.

But idk if 2 will my thing

[fast thicket]

I would ask it in #📚┃off-topic

There is no problem about talking on other arpg, just keep it to the channel

[tender sparrow]

Why?

[south moat]

Because #💬┃general is for last epoch discussion

[tender sparrow]

Chill out peeps

I was sharing with him

We werent gonna pull up path of building on general chat

[grim sphinx]

Hi,
Patch is not available yet for offline ?

[tender sparrow]

Probly tommrow

Or in like 10 - 15 hours

[forest parrot]

No, the patch won't be available for ~32 hours
Offline doesn't get access to it early

[tender sparrow]

Didnt they let you download it early

Last time

[forest parrot]

Nope

[tender sparrow]

Like 4 hours early

[south moat]

There is no preload at all because true offline is a thing.

[tender sparrow]

I remember doing something like that

[forest parrot]

#👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs message

[lunar arch]

will the new season start today?

[tender sparrow]

Tf wait they actually didnt?

[south moat]

no. tomorrow

[south moat]

Yeah, there has never been preload

[steep flare]

tfw you accidentally gaslight yourself

[tender sparrow]

Damn maybe it was poe can’t remember well

[steep flare]

Chrono Epoch: Path of Diablo

[wet mauve]

Epochtorch, path of van helsing: diablo dawn mechanicus.

[main frigate]

Maybe your mind mix poe with le

poe have that, le haven't

[tender sparrow]

Yeah maybe

[half vigil]

do we know which season will be the first actual season instead of adding things to both cycle and legacy?

[frozen lichen]

so i need to wait tomorrow to download season 3 of World of Warpath

[south moat]

They'll announce it
Haven't announced it yet

[half vigil]

so as far as we know season 4 will be core as well then. i mean we still need the sigil system to be added so there's that. cant think of any other big major systems they've mention off the top of my head

[south moat]

I mean
They could still make season 4 seasonal content and put the sigil system as core mechanic

[half vigil]

considering the recent "acquisition of new resources" that could be a possibility

[fallow sleet]

Why did I stay up way past 4AM making a build plan?

[red fox]

Cause you a chad gamer

[half vigil]

https://tenor.com/view/harley-quinn-eyebrows-gif-22803261

[steep flare]

https://tenor.com/view/chris-farley-tommy-boy-ive-got-a-plan-gif-15259794

The hardest part of making a build plan for season start is understanding what you'll do before you get anything good

[south moat]

Ez answer
You suffer until you get something good

The shades are there to hide my tears

[steep flare]

I ended up making a short list of "BiS even with low/no LP" separate from "useful if I find it, can adapt around it" and so forth

[steel sentinel]

It could be far worse 😄
Some builds need to suffer until they hit lvl 40-50 or so and unlock their last skill

[steep flare]

In my case I'll have at least 2, possibly 3 skills inflicting bleed on myself, so I kiiinda hope I find exsang early-ish

[steel sentinel]

Flay Lich for example won't be able to build around their new toy until they have unlocked 50 passive points in the tree (about early to mid 40s depending on if you actually do the side quests and dont rush xp)

[steep flare]

Yeah, I have in my notes that my bleed build is gonna be some mix of harvest-based and direct rip blood cast based for much of campaign

[steel sentinel]

Rip Blood sadly lost the 1 point node that gave it a guaranteed blood splatter which was great for minion support builds with the buffs the minions got from being in a blood splatter

[steep flare]

Well, in my case I'm gonna have a LOT of indirect casts, which I assume will cost the mana, so I prob wouldn't want that anyway

[steel sentinel]

you can make rip blood zero cost anyway if you use a wand or staff

and even without them if you buy the nodes

[steep flare]

My current plant is main hand wand, off-hand eulogy of blood so that it's 0 cost without having to spend 6 points on that part of the tree

Since it's a bleed build anyway, the flat damage is whatevs

chance to cast rip blood on melee hit
cast rip blood on transplant
cast rip blood when bone curse expires
cast rip blood on bleed overload
cast rip blood once per second during bleed overload

[red fox]

I mean LE is ez enought to let you run to the unique farm with out to much struggle

[errant kelp]

Ty!!

[steel sentinel]

my build was a necrotic spell blaster build, but physical build synergizes with the new marrow shard cast node in rip blood if you take it

[south moat]

rip blood for everyone

[steep flare]

Marrow shard requires direct casting rip blood, which I don't really plan to do

On a fun note: With aura of decay transformed into bleed, bleed overload should happen on its own lol

[steel sentinel]

my build was pretty much direct cast rip blood, spec into rip blood, marrow, skeleton mages, skeleton warriors, zombies
marrow is off the bar and I will fill it with either an unspecced bone curse or an unspecced golem

[steep flare]

In my case I guess I'll leave rip blood on the bar in case of forced disengage on a boss

[fallow sleet]

So I really wanted to make a certain build, but as I was working on it, the build kinda became something else along the way. But I do still like it.

[south moat]

So what did you cook, Manock?

[steel sentinel]

i was looking at builds for the new set item support unique ring
i tried to do it with necro but the best choice seemed to be runebolt runemaster
vitria hat, set ring and amulet, full set for galvars for triple decimate casts every 2 seconds

all the necro friendly sets are three piece sets

[steep flare]

I had the meme thought to use that ring to do corsair's set without a shield, instead using dual swords and converting the 40% glancing passive into block with it. Then I realized, no block effectiveness, and only shattered lance made sense to squeeze in with that, so prob nothing worth doing there

[fallow sleet]

I wanted to see what I could come up with with regards to 4 different companions and spriggan form. But eventually I ended up settling on squirrel + spriggan + form.

On the bright side, this approach actually increases the sheer amount of stuff on the screen.

[mellow walrus]

hello guys anyone know if we get preload for new season patch?

[steep flare]

no preload

[fallow sleet]

We don't.

[south moat]

We never get preload because true offline mode is a thing

[fallow sleet]

I forgot this happened every season lol

[south moat]

It will happen every season in the future too

[fallow sleet]

Honestly I think the young ones are very impatient.

[south moat]

Ah, to be young again
actually nevermind, it sucked

[fallow sleet]

I think I'll go to work and finish up quick and then sleep again. Stayed up way too long.

[south moat]

good luck
I'm cooking lunch

[fallow sleet]

It should only take around an hour but it has to be at the office. V_V

[half vigil]

wait if i grab prophecies, will it have the new stuff after the update or will it sort of soft lock that stuff out of prophecies prior to 1.3

[steep flare]

I assume it wouldn't roll the specifics until the actual drop happens but idk

[severe socket]

To be young again, you say.

I'm never listened to, let alone taken seriously, even at my almost 38, what's there to lose when reverted back to 18...

[steep flare]

There's a big gap between waking up one day in a young body again and actually rewinding and reliving being young without the benefit of experience

If it's just having a young body and keeping the rest? No real drawback.
Full reset? Mixed.

Might have some trouble with your photo ID tho lol

[fallow sleet]

I'm actually running MG again this time. It has some of the things that might make it fun to use.

[south moat]

Haven't tried that
But I assume the rewards are rolled when you complete it

[severe socket]

actually rewinding and reliving being young without the benefit of experience
Which means I'm back to haunting PC cafes again, lol, because I'm a huge PC nerd. In hindsight, it saved me from a metric f-ton of heartbreak.

[rancid lily]

with enough prep time to memorize some lotto numbers and a set date/age you go back to it's an easy yes, rewinding back like on the spot would be a weird experience

[steep flare]

The question is, will it reroll my legendary slam or do I get the same affixes

[rancid lily]

You'd have to wait a couple years for LE to come out lmao

[steep flare]

More than a couple

[rancid lily]

bro it's such a mindfuck thinking about like how weird it would be to rewind back in time

[steep flare]

If I got rewound to 18 I'd have to wait a solid 15 years... to reach the point where I got the EA version, which I don't think even had legendaries yet

I know it didn't have multiplayer

[south moat]

it did have legendaries but they were worse
the slam affected the level requirement of the item

[steep flare]

Oh yeah, I remember that being a thing

No leveling sticks for you

[south moat]

Not sure what version legendaries became a thing

[ocean roost]

i hate this time of year. when games i'm exicited about getting updates or announcements tomorrow. so i can't play anything else

[rancid lily]

also bruh i feel like i've started at the worst time

[stoic frigate]

0.8 iirc

[rancid lily]

Started like a week ago and like i'm at the level 90 mono's rn lmao

[south moat]

Sounds about right

[stoic frigate]

might have been 0.8.2

[steep flare]

Patch 0.8 was actually after I bought EA I'm pretty sure

[glass pendant]

I had it at whatever patch there were only yellow items and the passives were vertical

[steep flare]

Yeah, just checked the dates, it was 3 months after I bought in

[stoic frigate]

Rogue was still pretty new when Sanctum got added if memory serves.

[steep flare]

A time before Rogue

[stoic frigate]

Uh... hoo. That's a while, pretty sure that's before like 0.7?

[inner finch]

Rogue was a 0.8 release class

[glass pendant]

I don't think I was as serious about the game at the time to look at patch numbers but yeah it does seem quite a while ago

[steep flare]

Yeah. I was just noting that I started just before Rogue existed lol

[glass pendant]

I played hammerdin because d2 pilled

Crit for 1k, was happy

[stoic frigate]

Note: my memory falters hard at late 2019-2020, school + getting Covid twice in the span of 6 months does numbers apparently

[glass pendant]

I remember getting to monos before the mini islands rework and you picked one of two choices

Iirc exalts dropped at the same time as the mono rework

[steep flare]

I wanna say that was like 0.8.2?

[stoic frigate]

BFD quest making you walk your ass to the other side of the map because you went to the wrong goat

[inner finch]

The 2 builds that IMO need a lot more love in LE is Hammerdin and Hammerdin related builds, and Shield Throw

[glass pendant]

First time getting to the birdman areas and getting beamed from the sky for instakill on a sentinel

[inner finch]

im very sad we dont have a proper, powerful and versatile shield throw economy

[glass pendant]

I wish hammer was stronger yeah

I know dot is stronger but eh

[stoic frigate]

Reflect scaled Shield Throw does some funny stuff

[inner finch]

You can do sooo many mechanics with how shield throw works

its a mathematically beautiful skill

[stoic frigate]

You do however sac all your idol slots

But hey

Funny shield go bonk

[glass pendant]

I'm not the biggest fan of the captain america playstyle but I played so much hammers in d2 that I can't unlove it no matter how much lower tier it is in LE

[steep flare]

Plus, Captain America vibes

It's a shame judgement got the unarmed version and not shield throw tbh

[stoic frigate]

Unarmed Judgement my beloved

What a goofy build

[glass pendant]

Unarmed is generally a meme rather than real builds, just like bees have a low upper ceiling and are usually complementary utility on a class (bees dying and proccing things)

The falcon gloves are better on builds that aren't even rogue

[stoic frigate]

Hey, it may be a meme build, but it's my meme build that I carried people in 0.9.2 with by one tapping bosses for them and I love it for that

[steep flare]

Rogue is always weird

[inner finch]

Mechanically, one of the coolest builds in LE was the Divine Bolt HH build

but holy crap was it mechanically busted

[glass pendant]

I like unarmed as a concept but when monk hits inevitably, they'll be wise to make it a staff mastery instead

Staff needs more support in general

[steep flare]

At least it has some niche, though with the dual wield buff maybe not so much now

[inner finch]

Divine Bolt HH was the last nail on the coffin of the assumption that you can make endgame builds just by reading skill descriptions

[glass pendant]

Problem is, LE isn't balanced around the lack of a weapon currently sadly

[inner finch]

(You absolutely can't always do that, knowing undocumented mechanical elements of skills is crucial)

[glass pendant]

And weapons have important slams on them as well. Flat dmg, flat crit

[steep flare]

New unique idea: Emperor's New Weapon
Cannot be equipped unless slammed, always spawns as LP1+. Once slammed, it takes on the item type of the donor weapon, bringing its properties with it, except you always appear unarmed when using it

One of the properties should def be "your skills cannot be dodged". Because, y'know, they can't see it

Another meme idea: Scrapmetal Greatsword. Weapon focused around forge guard. Unlike other uniques, can be shattered if it is a legendary. If you do, it becomes a Scrapmetal Sword with a different focus but the same LP as the legendary used to make it. This can be repeated again to make the Scrapmetal Dagger.

Why? Because forgeguard deserves to suffer and making them double slam and shatter just to get a chance at their "real" slam will help build character

[icy verge]

soooo one more day huh ??

[steep flare]

and another 6h besides

[icy verge]

i hope this time we dont get those errors hehe crosses fingers

[steep flare]

Back in my day, online games didn't even work until a week after release
oldmanyellsatcloud.jpg

[inner finch]

the rules of karma dictates that at any given time one mastery of each class must suffer

In Season 3, it seems like the Acolyte will be excluded from this rule

[icy verge]

what ya talking about if ya that old as u say . online games were prob 1 or 2 haha that aint an example 😛

[steep flare]

Nah, there were a lot more online games a lot earlier than most realize
Granted a lot of them were text-based

[stoic frigate]

MUDs raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!

[icy verge]

hehe text based the horrors ..

[noble mauve]

when S3 for LE ?

[steep flare]

Getting a client that supported color felt like a revolution

[steep flare]

30h from now

[icy verge]

i was thinking about UO , EQ , AC , Daoc 🙂

[noble mauve]

ah that tmmr

Thanks

[south moat]

You could check the news, their site also has a convenient count down
but yes it's tomorrow in 30hours

[stoic frigate]

MUDs still go hard really. Aardwolf is great.

[icy verge]

that kind of era

[inner finch]

EGA all the way

[half vigil]

ugh i need to figure out a filter for my runemaster ignite build. it's gonna be nuttier with the new wisp amulet

[steep flare]

Every time I see that amulet I just think of the elmo fire gif

https://tenor.com/view/excited-fuego-gif-26833875

[half vigil]

lol

[steep flare]

I assume it's going to involve machinegun fireballing with occasional gigafireball that summons fireballs (wisps) that shoot fireballs

[half vigil]

yeah i have a runemaster i like to use that i keep trying to base around hydra, fire damage, ignite, fire/ignite pen, and spreading flames

[half vigil]

not mine

i wanna see if the wisps can summon hydrahedrons

[steep flare]

Sorry, I was envisioning the old shotgun-that-shoots-shotguns memes

[half vigil]

so borderlands

lest we forget, borderlands 2 tiny tina dnd dlc that had a shotgun that shoots exploding swords

[steep flare]

I believe the meme predates it, but BL2 onward did nothing but reference memes with its writing so I'm not surprised it would have such a thing

[south moat]

I fully expect the next borderlands to have skibidi toilet

[half vigil]

borderlands is effectively 2 things. extremely crude and crass behavior, and a meme refrencer and generator

also just plain murdderhobo fun

[glass pendant]

Imo the borderlands situation is a sad one

When you never take yourself seriously, you end up becoming the joke yourself

[half vigil]

mad they changed the names of small people into tinks

like low key mad. who was annoyed at that

[steep flare]

I'm gonna be real here.. BL has always been mid. If you don't think too hard you can have a bit of fun, but there's really not much there

[foggy wadi]

This game's Unity engine slop. Borderlands is probably competitive

[prime ivy]

Is there a way to farm Weaver's Rune?

[median perch]

Echo with node weaver tree

[prime ivy]

ty

I'm looking forward to tomorrow's S3, but in my country it starts at 1:00 a.m. That's tough.

[half vigil]

i'm pacific coast usa so it's 9 am for me

too bad my streams fell flat

[median perch]

29h more

When server online again, I'll in my bed

[south moat]

It's 7pm my time for launch
Probably not playing at launch so i can wake up early, get workout done and then play

[median perch]

The first few hours of the new season, the server is always in a state where you can't log in, and it starts at 11 PM here. I've had to wait until 1-2 AM a few times just to get into the game

[half vigil]

that's where offline comes in. some people will cry streamer privelege in their chats and streamers just go i'm playing offline my dudes

[south moat]

Yeah, saw that a lot at 1.0 launch
ppl here on discord were crying too

[steep flare]

People aren't used to an online ARPG having true offline as an option lol

They got conditioned by diablo of exile

[half vigil]

lets see... smaller indie company... check
1.0 launch or major update launch... check
absolute insanity the first few hours... completely understandable

obviously a lot of people have never played a major update launch on big mmos like wow, ff14, destiny, ect

[steep flare]

In recent years big MMOs have gotten better on that
In the old times you didn't even bother trying for a few days unless you had nothing else to do
Now it usually works almost immediately

[half vigil]

gods i remember destiny rise of iron launch... i said screw this i'm going to bed. eterra's light it was dreadfull even after i woke up 8 hours later iirc

[south moat]

I should probably get ready for business meeting in 8minutes

[median perch]

Last time, EHG gave me 300 points, and I spent them all on pets 🙏

[half vigil]

for what?

[median perch]

Idk lol

I bought them but rarely use them

[half vigil]

i wanna get the new legend pack but... money is tight rn. i planned on buying crossworlds start of the month. and now i found daemon x machina and want that too. ugh worst time for things that happened and made me short on cash to happen

what's the level difference for xp reduction? like how many levels away from enemies before it starts?

[median perch]

I’ve heard some questions about people buying smaller support packs first and then the legend pack, but I’m not sure if the cost gets discounted. I only buy the legend packs, so I don’t know how to answer that

[half vigil]

5 hours

[median perch]

5'19" more

[ionic junco]

5 hrs 20 mins from now according to announcement

[stoic frigate]

Aight a horrifically expensive version has been cooked. I'll return to it eventually.

[slender escarp]

What class will you guys be playing for season 3?

[vague gull]

Hi, I'm new. Falconer.

[pastel raven]

thanks homies, much appreciated!

[lapis otter]

prob beastmaster or necromancer

[slender escarp]

cant wait to see the reworks

[stoic frigate]

Likely starting a VK idea I had and we'll go from there.

[steep flare]

Blood for the Blood God Bleed Lich

[half vigil]

probably start with my ignite runemaster. not even sure i'll do cycle. i mean, not like i care about ladders, and season mechanic is core anyways

[stoic frigate]

I just play for the refresh

[half vigil]

which is fun in it's own way but not sure yet. especially cuz at least one friend want to play with out legacy characters we working on at this exact second

[stoic frigate]

Fair enough, friends are always a good motivator

[half vigil]

i got like a friend and a brother who like this game or style of game so not much to go with

[stoic frigate]

My friends and I spend most of our time making build ideas that range from "yeah that's solid" to "please do not play this" for fun

[half vigil]

we need ally minions to get shadowed out or something like diablo 4 has

[willow sentinel]

I need the refresh, otherwise I'll re use lvled up characters and my stashes full of stuff and get bored in 3 minutes

[main frigate]

18:50 here, GGG release overview video at 4:00, le 1.3 start at 0:00, sleep time is 8h, time for watch videos and check out patch note is 2h, so safe time for deciding "should I play season or legacy in le" is after 15:00 tomorrow.

[half vigil]

so whats the level difference to trigger the xp reduction? literally asking for a friend lol

[stoic frigate]

Yup, same

[wraith saffron]

season 3 realese today ?

[half vigil]

nope

[willow sentinel]

Try in 29h

[half vigil]

that's tomorrow. in 29 hours

[main frigate]

"why people think it's boring to play characters with max level and filled stash" is what I looking for an answer

[half vigil]

so no one knows the level difference for the xp reduction?

[stoic frigate]

The reason I play these games is because I enjoy the aspect of playing and making my build stronger over time. If all I do every time an update happens is log into one that's already near minmaxed I kinda lose out on that.

[main frigate]

Tons of loots you still can farm to max the build or another builds if you want to find some fun

[stoic frigate]

The only one I know is player-to-enemy, dunno if there's player-to-player

[stoic frigate]

Sure, but the where I start out low is gone unless I play SSF, and I don't enjoy SSF

[true granite]

i get bored playing the same thing for too long, idk how people can stick to the same character but hey more power to em

[half vigil]

that's what i'm talking about. like how many levels between you and the enemy

[stoic frigate]

Ahh. It's 10, but it's not a reduction per se. You just only gain xp as if they were 10 levels higher than you.

[steep flare]

There's also a lot lower cognitive load coming back to the game if you start with a blank slate rather than having to sort through a garbage dump of a stash

[stoic frigate]

Real

I do not want to look at my legacy stash

[tender knot]

is the patch gonna be downloadable when the maintenance window begins or only when the servers are back up?

[stoic frigate]

Or gods forbid my offline...

[stoic frigate]

Only when servers are back up, they don't do preloads due to offline

[tender knot]

oh yeah makes sense, okay

tyty

[true granite]

i'm checking out witchfire while waiting for le season

game's pretty peak

[stoic frigate]

I want that game

The gunplay looks very Destiny reminiscent

[half vigil]

i wanna try witchfire but broke af

[steep flare]

Witchfire is to Souls games as Borderlands is to ARPGs. I'll need to spend more time on that game when I can tbh

[stoic frigate]

Iron Pineapple coded comment

[steep flare]

To say it plainly, it has a very similar vibe while being fairly distinct mechanically

[novel furnace]

Hi guys, quick question about upcoming season, pausing during online is probably unavailable right?

[stoic frigate]

Right. That's just not in the game, make yourself heard in #1210282176680169562 if you want it (it would be great to have)

[novel furnace]

oh I mean, it is okay I will just play offline, was curious since WSAD was implemented recently which is great

[main frigate]

Pausing during online is unavailable. What is it mean?

[novel furnace]

I know that it is not an easy effort to achieve, however I have no coding experience xD

as in, if you are playing on live servers not offline, like warframe or poe 2 for example

where if you are alone on a map you can pause gameplay

[main frigate]

You mean pause gameplay by summoning resume menu?

[simple bison]

yes

[novel furnace]

for example

[simple bison]

Summoning a menu is a very fancy way of saying it lol

[main frigate]

I don't see why le can't do that then

[simple bison]

It's not impossible, it's just hard to do

since the game wasn't made with it in mind

[true granite]

poe2 is the only game i've seen done it so far

nifty feature tho

[simple bison]

It's something that's way easier to put into a game if you do it from the beginning

[novel furnace]

warframe had it long before poe

[true granite]

oh i didn't play much warframe

[novel furnace]

but warframe is based on mission instances, when u enter and disconnect before ending mission loot and xp is lost

so you must finish a zone, idk how poe2 does it

[main frigate]

But Poe 2 still maybe disconnected if you pause it for too long time

[stoic frigate]

I have not opened Warframe since like 2022

[novel furnace]

yeah I used to love warframe due to pause feature xD

[steep flare]

PoE2 can pause the instance IIRC. Just bring up the passive screen, main menu, or something full screen and it pauses

[prime ivy]

I can't wait to go on a trip with Bear.

[main frigate]
