[simple bison]

Preference :P. I don't enjoy 0 or 1 button builds that much myself but it is one of the best clearing builds the games ever had and quite a lot of people enjoy it

[sonic sinew]

its so boring my mate died wirth epic gear i gave him for reflecty shaman cause he fel asleep NOT JOKING

[simple bison]

It's nice for people who like turning their brains off and just grinding echoes while watching something on the side or something

[sonic sinew]

lp4 reclect shield with 9% roll 100% sure its only 1 that droped on hardcore

[chrome arrow]

so here is the scoop where can i see these 2 builds i ask as my hands cramp badly i was a mechanic for 10 years and have carpral tunnel bad

[simple bison]

Yeah go reflect man

Even lightning blast needs some clicking

[chrome arrow]

link to build you can pm/dm if needed

[simple bison]

Warpath would also work if you're comfortable holding down a button

Nah I can send here one sec

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/reflect-shaman-guide

[sonic sinew]

atm im test driving reflective forge knight 3 button build see if it survives haah

[chrome arrow]

need to lvl 1 to 70 to use the build how does it play til then

[sonic sinew]

well u wont have shit to buy relective chest for like whole weekend

thats how long fdarmijgn will take

[chrome arrow]

rephrase how can i completly reset my druid i have he is just a beastmaster can it be done

[simple bison]

You could level with this until then, the leveling build does need pressing buttons though unfortunately. I'm not super experienced with primalist so I'm not sure of any low button press leveling builds

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/shaman-leveling-guide

[simple bison]

Oh yeah you can

Just go to the end of time and talk to the purple head icon npc

You'll be able to change mastery for a gold cost

[chrome arrow]

ill do that then

[simple bison]

Just make sure you have some of the items for the thorns build

Especially the chest and shield

They're basically the whole build

[carmine smelt]

LB isn't super mechanical but I don't know if I would call it a 1 button build

[sonic sinew]

well u got teleport also haha

[carmine smelt]

selfcast anyway, autobomber is more 1 button

[sonic sinew]

dunno if someone counts movement as button combat skills :P

how 2 fak i can get 4 red ring drops on trade in 1 day from imoprint

5 days im trying to enchanft 1 faking idol that keeps rolling same enchant

[simple bison]

Well you gotta be pretty active on lb

[carmine smelt]

You also have to tap runebolt to keep mana or damage stacks, frost wall on bosses, the movement to refresh buffs or reposition if doing foot of mountain to dodge stuff

[simple bison]

I'd say stuff like reflect and warpath fall under 1 button

[carmine smelt]

flame ward reactively

etc

[sonic sinew]

rework of idol enchantment is my top prio i want next season

dying at 100 feels only bad cause it takes 2 weeks to enchant 3 idls playing 15h a day....

been off work 4 weeks and got 2 good idol enchants

[carmine smelt]

I feel like idol enchant also conflicts pretty hard with imprints as a memory amber sink. You are heavily incentivized to use your amber on echos

[sonic sinew]

yup

i cant buy echois

all my amber is going for re rererrererererererererererereererre enchant same idol

got 15 stash tabs of idols atm

[carmine smelt]

could just be that the cost is too high, at least as COF it's probably better to just pop out a bunch of new idols and use the free enchant

rather than re-enchanting the same

[sonic sinew]

ye not ont rade i prio runes echos then idols echos then rest

getting good idols is ez encahnting feels impossible

i giot like 5 mages 95is and had 2 idols encahjnt with haste after evade

[carmine smelt]

the saddest part is farming enchants on a less than perfectly rolled idol

[sonic sinew]

in total lol

and not even high rolls :D

[carmine smelt]

knowing you have to do it all over again if you get a better one

[sonic sinew]

had that

landed good encahnt bettter idol drops next echo

and ur like fml

[carmine smelt]

I like that for uniques you can gauntlet of strife before slamming, would be nice if you could do something like that with idols

or some way to reroll once you have a good one

[sonic sinew]

ye would be good like idol encahnting echo

where u can go crazy

what i put in sugestion section is

mechanic that same enchant cant roll when enchanting

just today i had 6 same enchants in ROW

[fossil wolf]

I don't even bother trying to reroll idols anymore lol.

[sonic sinew]

6 wtf

[fossil wolf]

I did it twice and saw the cost and was like "that wasn't worth it"

[carmine smelt]

I'll only use amber to reroll when I have a near perfect prefix + suffix and want to minmax

otherwise I'll get more gear progression from buying unclaimed troves

[fossil wolf]

I'm on the dual exalt grind currently.

[sonic sinew]

haste on evade for my mages is top prio

[carmine smelt]

exactly thats what I'm saying, 77 grind needs a mountain of amber

[fossil wolf]

It is not going well with bows lol..

[sonic sinew]

saves me slaming movement speed on boots so i can go hybrid health

[fossil wolf]

Oh I haven't even done that I'm just trying to farm a million bows.

I ran outta havoc runes.

[carmine smelt]

I feel like you want haste and ms imo

[sonic sinew]

ms ??

[carmine smelt]

zoom boots

[sonic sinew]

awake 40 hours non stop gaming :P

aaaaa

i like around 45% movement speed im slow

[fossil wolf]

I mean t7 exalt boot is 30% flat.

[carmine smelt]

ye is a lot

[fossil wolf]

Plus haste.

[sonic sinew]

game speed is why id dont play poe1 too zoomy hate zoomy gameplayt

like slow tanky stuff

[fossil wolf]

I have like.. 70% ms?

I am zooming.

[carmine smelt]

I don't disagree but making yourself slower doesn't make the game slower, something like Uber is really hard with low movement speed

[sonic sinew]

2 red ring

in 1 hour

[fossil wolf]

I dread attempting Uber lol.

Without the gloves for tank stats on hail of arrows idk if I even bother.

I never wanna do last ruin time line again tbh..

[sonic sinew]

i had lp1 gloves gave to othert mate with lp2 void conv staff

now i could kinda use em hah

[fossil wolf]

I could just switch to like shadow cascade but... If I'm playing a rogue I wanna use bows

[sonic sinew]

my man its like i play falconer falcon does the job no balista stuff :P

[fossil wolf]

Shrug I tried mage to use a rune master hydregon or whatever it's called build, and then broke it lol. So I started the rogue to fix it.

Now I'm in too deep

[sonic sinew]

hahaha got hydrabox runemaster versiosn 2.0 at 93lvl

very like that build its fun

with seasonal wand

u cast flame ward while fireball roling so ur tough

[fossil wolf]

Yeah idk I broke it broke it.

Can't sustain mana at all.

[sonic sinew]

no free fireball runebolt ??

[fossil wolf]

Shrug idk it's only level 73 and I haven't played it in like a month.

[sonic sinew]

aaa

im at 163 hours played last 2 weeks haha

howe we know s4 date soon

so i can hopefully take week off work fdor good grind session

[fossil wolf]

Yeah no I have jyob, December and first 2cdays of Jan I have off.

So effectively 3 weeks.

[sonic sinew]

i work at university have 3 weeks off for xmas

so will be poe s4

2

i even try new season of d4 when lands

also sacred 2 remastered landed so tempted

for me sacred obliterated diablo 1 and 2 got deffo more hours played than both diablos combined on just sacred 2

[fossil wolf]

I didn't mind d4 just blizzard destroyed it

I could go check it out again.. I guess idk I didn't buy the dlc.

Idk how needed the dlc is.

[sonic sinew]

d4 felt best when it came out for me at lest

[fossil wolf]

It felt good to me because it's better use of my time grind wise lol since I have a kid and own a business so I don't get too much gaming time.

D4 was for super casuals like that.

[sonic sinew]

a shit self empoyment ye no time off in exchange for making money i make shit money but got loads of time off work

its one or the other heh

[fossil wolf]

I don't work weeneds I just have other hobbies I do.

[sonic sinew]

100% paid up to 6 months off sick

[fossil wolf]

Like breaking my cars every other day..

[sonic sinew]

with my shot now back i almos quit driving altogether

[fossil wolf]

Yeah I kinda just suffer.

[sonic sinew]

got drift toy 350z in garage i used to go to play around track wirth but cant anymore

[fossil wolf]

Sell it. Vqs are a time bomb and the crowd for them sucks anyways.

Worse than Honda.

[sonic sinew]

mine is immortal

dunno howm many track days it survivwed

[fossil wolf]

Uhuh I said that about my supra also and here I am almost 6 figures into this car lol.

[sonic sinew]

8 years of tracking and trashing non stop only thing that broke was 1 coiil pack

i almost swapped it summer time

[fossil wolf]

Too what?

[sonic sinew]

for tuerbocharged engine swaped 450hp del sol

[fossil wolf]

And why..

[sonic sinew]

but i was second in line for it

[fossil wolf]

Oh you mean traded.

[sonic sinew]

ye 1:1

[fossil wolf]

Thought you meant engine swap, was like "the only 2 that make sense are the skyline rb and an ls because there's a ton of parts for it.."

Discord you good?

Phone being weird.

[sonic sinew]

nana seen it while scrolling facebook so im like would yopu swap cause he wanted more practical car im like

well at lest 350z got trunk space :D

[fossil wolf]

I mean... I know 450 to a Honda is a lot for something that makes barely 100 to begin with..

But still.

[sonic sinew]

del sol is 110kg non stripped

1100

[fossil wolf]

Idk what that is to freedom units.

Gonna guess like 2300

Since I've owned a del sol.

[sonic sinew]

ye its around that after ownign z for some years i will never buy another car above 1200kg max

[fossil wolf]

Just needs more power.

[sonic sinew]

nope

[fossil wolf]

I own several cars above 800 lol.

[sonic sinew]

does not make car handle better at all

thats 1 thing i hatte about this car 1650kg

i had 1000kg dc2 with full spoon build engine 11k rpm build

and i had 2 cerash it cause of kid

should have ran hffucker over

thats why my back is shot till i die

[fossil wolf]

Meh... I had a stripped teggy making 500whp at like sub 1800 lbs..

It's only so fun having light cars.

[sonic sinew]

i dont do stripped cars :P

i did had dry carbon bonnet i picked up other sice of uk island

so much fun around track and everywhere

[fossil wolf]

I only do full cars now adays.

Even my literal track car is stock class with all options needed besides ac

[sonic sinew]

i got black flaged on nurburgring for noise level tho :P

113db poped over for a lap when i was driving from uk to poland for vacation hehe

butr like i say now i cant drive longer than 1 hour then need a brake

before was like 1200 miles to poland in 1 go

just petrol stops

[fossil wolf]

I don't do turns. I had a rally car once. Didn't enjoy it.

[sonic sinew]

i dont do straight line dont like it :D

should have went for s2000

now looking back

[fossil wolf]

Could of bought my friends ls swapped s2k

"ghost"

[sonic sinew]

i dont like v8s :D

[fossil wolf]

-rolls eyes-

[sonic sinew]

preffer v10 v5 v6 i6

best sound rotary tho :P

[fossil wolf]

As someone who owns a rotary.. I disagree. But it also next to never runs without breaking.

So I'm pretty bias.

[sonic sinew]

ill never buy v8 due to how they sound

only subaru i like less :D

[sharp raft]

i dont know man, a v8 bi turbo amg sounds quite nice

[fossil wolf]

I mean to each their own, but as a rotary owner.. They sound nice for all 5 minutes till an apex seal dies and your engine goes down again.

[sonic sinew]

im thinking NA like you turbo v8 is okish

2 of my mates

bought rx8s for liker 2000

bothe had em 5+ years no issues :D

sold cause of fuel consumption

[fossil wolf]

Congrats they won the lottery or babied the car.

Care not which.

[sonic sinew]

both tracked with me time to time

in uk people actually service cars u know

like change oil and stuff :D

[fossil wolf]

0 way it didn't break in some way, probably just didn't admit it so thry didn't get memed

[sonic sinew]

naaa they been solid

rx7 on othjer hand

[fossil wolf]

Also rx8s are na..

[sonic sinew]

my mechanic Steve had dc2 like me and was tracking it 10 years

[fossil wolf]

There is nothing tramautic happening too them.

[sonic sinew]

upgraded to rx7 blew engine up on 2 track day :D

and hes like fak men should have kept dc2

[fossil wolf]

Yeah see my fd 7 breaks every time I use it.

So I swapped it.

Fk that engine.

And the 2 rotor 8 engine is a literal downgrade so I won't do that

[sonic sinew]

but rx8s bneen solid guess no turbo and frequent oil changes make em last

[sharp raft]

How is the b58 ? Any idea

[sonic sinew]

but he fixed that engine and blew second time up

[sharp raft]

Kinda fell inlove with a m440i coupe

[sonic sinew]

and he sold rx7 haha

[fossil wolf]

I don't deal with anything from germany

[sharp raft]

Fair enough 😅

[sonic sinew]

is id b58 also ??

[fossil wolf]

Or honestly the EU as a whole.

Because all of them are either garbage from the get go -mini- or just stupid hard to work on -everyone else-

[sonic sinew]

in eu cars make it pass 200k mile ez laike most lol

i bought my first honda with 190k miles on it put on another 50k

and scraped it cause it deserved it

like a rest

[fossil wolf]

Listen guy.. If you upkeep any car it will do 500k miles..

So the argument is dumb.

[sharp raft]

they are quite complicated that is certain

[sonic sinew]

what klills cars in uk is rust

all makes

[fossil wolf]

Yeah welcome to Salt..

What happens when you either a get snow or b live near the ocean.

[sonic sinew]

and its both in uk case :D

if you dont do full underseal every 5-7 years car is gone at 15 year old here

20 old jap imports are mint they dont salt there

[fossil wolf]

Only v10 I'd willingly own is a viper.

And I'm not paying what people want for those cars.

[sonic sinew]

loved my mates gallardo sound

[fossil wolf]

Those aren't worth it either.

[sonic sinew]

https://youtu.be/mW57mFWxLdg?si=VqZMcfIymcOtQ_gg

ojnly car i liked on pair withmy dc2

mclarrens look like shit

[fossil wolf]

Equally not worth it.

[sonic sinew]

dont like ferraris either but do like a nice lambo haha

he bought aventador after and now got mclarren cause he tracks allot

and just better than labo around track

[fossil wolf]

I mean that's not hard..

Lambos arent meant to turn

[sonic sinew]

also says it sounds like shit does not look good but loves wway it drives

he swapped 1k hp gtr for that gallardo even tho lost like 400 hp loved how it drove

comparing to tank weight gtr

[fossil wolf]

It's also a normal person car..

And not made with carbon fiber.

So yes it's far heavier.

[sonic sinew]

i look at gtr as best all in 1 car

[fossil wolf]

Debatable. But to each their own.

[sonic sinew]

mate used tot ake hes kid playing ice hockey with it for years

[fossil wolf]

Awd doesn't like being drifted.

[sonic sinew]

eventualy swapped for more fuel economical car v10 r8 :D

dunno us but here petrol went 100% up in 10 years

[fossil wolf]

About the same because we don't produce oil just like UK doesn't.

[sonic sinew]

1.6 pound/liter atm

[fossil wolf]

No idea, it's cheaper where I live compared to like California.

Most of my cars also don't use normal fuel anymore besides my skyline and camaro.

[sonic sinew]

1 liter is 0.22 galon

so its like 9 dollars/gal;on atm

like i said both mates sold rx8 due to mpg

my avg atm is like 12

[fossil wolf]

I get gallons per mile in some of my vehicles

You kinda just get over it.

[sonic sinew]

not in eu u dont

pay is shit in all countries here now so everyone downgraded to eco cars lol

[fossil wolf]

Shrug I don't live there for a reason.

[sonic sinew]

klike how much road tax do you pay ??

[fossil wolf]

Eerr....

[sonic sinew]

i dont even know if u got 5hit like that in us

[fossil wolf]

Built into my property tax so like 3%?

[sonic sinew]

u looking at 1000 just for tax

[fossil wolf]

It's way more than 1k.

[sonic sinew]

thejn insurance is even worse

[fossil wolf]

Since it's built into my property tax lol.

[sonic sinew]

cars are dead cheap here comparing to us cause of all the extra taxes

[fossil wolf]

Meh..

They ain't that much cheaper.

[sonic sinew]

u buy car for 1000 and first insurance for new driver is 5000

can be 500 car its 5000....

[fossil wolf]

Shrug I pay about that for all my cars.

[sonic sinew]

dunno 350zs in us seem to be like 300% price of uk ones

[fossil wolf]

God..

It's like 10k for a non clapped one, and 4k for a clapped one.

[sonic sinew]

tahts why i got one um can have fully working 50k miles one for like 5kj

5000

i see us adds 15k lol

[fossil wolf]

You... See people that put a random price in expecting to get lowballed into oblivion.

What I do.

If I'm selling a car for 5k I'm listing it for at least 8k.

[sonic sinew]

sensible

saves u time on timewasters

and tyre kicker

like if i blew engine up on track

i get new one for 500 mate swaps it over for 200

[fossil wolf]

I mean it's more if they lowball me 6k they think they are getting a deal and I'm getting a deal.

And I don't need to deal with an argument.

[sonic sinew]

that to

deffo after all the eco crap us is better car guys country than here

used to be fantastic 20 yearts ago when i moved from poladn

but now it seems its bad all over the planet no place to move to for upgrade

[fossil wolf]

I mean just don't go to California.

Rest of the US is pretty chill about it.

[sonic sinew]

seen allot people moved to texas from cali

[fossil wolf]

I won't get political in here.

[sonic sinew]

thats what i seen from news atound youtube

here nowhere to run hahaha

Nottingham still better than my hometown

at lest we got robin hood statue :D

[sonic sinew]

@fossil wolf well off for a nap 3am here thanks for ncie chat about stuff

[fossil wolf]

Tata

[chrome arrow]

man none of the items are wanting to drop starting to think it may be easier to start a new

[simple bison]

The chest is primordial so you need to get it from the rift beast merchant

The shield is less mandatory but you can use runes of ascendance to try for it

[marble mortar]

I've been thinking about getting into the game again

The whole Ai think gotta concerned me a bit though

[chrome arrow]

need to farm the runes lol

[simple bison]

If you already have the game I don't see why something that might happen in the future should stop you from playing it now. My PC can stop work tomorrow but that doesn't mean it's a reason for me to stop using it now

[marble mortar]

Oh I'm definitely gonna play it, I just was saying that for the future of the game. Really hope it all works out and hyped for the new expansion? If that's true

[simple bison]

Yep an expansion was announced. It's still likely a ways away though

[marble mortar]

Is there any information on it so far?

[simple bison]

Nope, nothing except it's planned

We don't know what will be in it, what it will cost if anything, or when it comes out

[marble mortar]

I bought the game in super early access

Definitely looking forward to seeing the new stuff

Also I love me some lot lizards

[stable shoal]

Just play the game dont worry about ai,expansion,money loss or whatever its a great value game with plenty of stuff to try and you dont have resets every cycle so take advantage of that while you can and try many builds some crap others top tier,the new lich mana flay is one of the most fun if not most fun I had here

[coarse ember]

anyone want free tp's or uber kills? or free stuff?

[marble mortar]

Okay so

Recommend me a cool build for my first character in a long time

[coarse ember]

who wants free xp, free carry

[main frigate]

I think this community is the biggest estate from EHG. The game can be closed, the team can be shattered, but this server is here.

Just... I hope Judd still is the owner of this server. Don't give it to another company.

[coarse ember]

offering xp if anyone wnats

[simple bison]

What do you generally enjoy?

Ranged, melee, minion?

[marble mortar]

Ranged but also really love summoning classes

[simple bison]

Earthquake bear is one of the strongest builds we've ever had, sounds like that could be up your alley. There's also stuff like static charge lightningblast that did well this season

[marble mortar]

Oh heck yeah those sound awesome af

Is there trading?

[simple bison]

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/anurok-frogs-beastmaster-guide
https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/bear-beastmaster-guide
https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/lightning-blast-runemaster-guide

[marble mortar]

Also what's the difference between the season and regular server?

[simple bison]

There is if you go with the merchants guild faction but beware that it's really late into the season so there's some inflation and trade is slow currently so I'd recommend going circle of fortune instead

[simple bison]

No difference in content. It's basically there for those who want a fresh start whenever a new season comes out. Whenever a season ends everything from it gets transferred to legacy

[marble mortar]

Which one has the most players? And is the chat global for both?

[coarse ember]

dawg i hAVE A BEAR

SOMEONE FLAY WITH ME

[simple bison]

Pretty sure chat is global for both. I actually don't know how many players are in legacy vs season this late into it

[simple bison]

If you want to find someone to party with please use the #👥┃lfg channel

[coarse ember]

play*

[marble mortar]

Thank you for the information I really appreciate it all

[fervent musk]

ngl if fire aura is 0n sentinal and spams smite i may have to play it

[calm jay]

Spams Smite? I literally have no idea how to build any other Sentinel. Instructions clear, built for Smite

My next pet project is going to be to just take a naked smiteadin through the campaign

[stark frost]

How many EHG employees are projected to enter Krafton's voluntary resignation program once Krafton shifts its "AI first" policy more onto the west? I guess artists are the first to go? Make sure to thank your CEO for going into business with an "AI first" company.

[calm jay]

All I'd ask is that they're transparent with us as players as to what's happening to them insofar as they're not contractually forbidden, I guess, and so far as I've seen they've done good at that

Acquisitions of a product that isn't abjectly failing aren't usually done with the intent to start bullying their processes. People always get squeamish around the name Tencent for acquisitions but it's usually a sign of fair confidence for me; they won't just throw money at something because they want to put lootboxes in it. Tencent generally puts their name behind successful products, and those products don't usually start failing afterward.

100%, the Krafton acquisition was concerning. 100%, we deserve to be in the loop (as much as they can keep us). 100%, sneering derision in the form of these sidelong comments based on absolutely nothing, no source, no articles, no nothing, helps absolutely nobody do absolutely anything.

And for the love of God, guys. If you're gonna friggin' roast, do it well.

[stark frost]

It is Krafton's official statement, but it's in Korean. They're investing $200M into generative AI.

https://www.chosun.com/english/industry-en/2025/10/23/4WPQ6EYEOBDJHJOKDBG7ZZVBOU
Here's an AI translated article about it.

https://automaton-media.com/en/news/krafton-launches-voluntary-resignation-program-for-employees-as-it-transforms-into-an-ai-first-company
Another one, which talks about "voluntary resignation" directly.

[stable shoal]

Focus more about the game and not the news about krafton a quick advice

The US is ruled by an orange taco doesnt mean i should be worry about that

[obtuse bay]

Tencent on Thursday posted 15% year-on-year revenue growth, with AI boosting the Chinese tech giant’s performance in advertising targeting and gaming.

Chinese gaming giant Tencent has acquired a majority stake in Grinding Gear Games, the New Zealand-based studio behind online action RPG Path of Exile.

The developer announced the acquisition in a forum Q&A designer to assure its community that the move will not significantly impact their experience playing the game.

"We will remain an independent company and there won't be any big changes to how we operate," the studio wrote. "We want to reassure the community that this will not affect the development or operations of Path of Exile."

so when it comes to tencent and poe, people are like 🤫

[stable shoal]

Exactly tencent owns said company its not a publisher but nobody complains about that

Try mana flay lich before they nerf it build is great and is super fun if you haven't tried it yet

[main frigate]

https://tenor.com/view/sleepy-dog-nap-time-exhausted-tired-gif-3455512

[main frigate]

An orange taco?

[faint tree]

Hi, are pushing monoliths the only end game content which we have?

[simple bison]

It's important to remember just because Krafton bought ehg does not make EHG into Krafton. As far as I know there's been pretty much no mention of subsidiaries in the articles and they (at least I feel) are worded as if it's a mostly internal thing, and that they'll make the ai tools they develop available for their subsidiaries to use.

Could Krafton force AI onto EHG? As far as we know yes (there could be clauses in the contract), are they? There's no indication of that.

[main frigate]

No news for why no news for roadmap is the real issue

[stable shoal]

If you are from there you will know what that means its a meme🤣

[main frigate]

🤔 Texas ruled by an orange taco? No idea

[main frigate]

https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/texas-tacos/ You mean this one?

Or a taco restaurant calls orange taco?

[stoic frigate]

You're thinking too literally. It's a politics joke. Don't engage.

[main frigate]

Oh... Make sense. The US president...Ok. Better to learn that by house of cards

[autumn sonnet]

when starts new season?

[woven sentinel]

morning

[main frigate]

afternoon

[north belfry]

Nothing has been announced yet - probably January.

[woven sentinel]

whats everyone up 2?

[main frigate]

Our options were limited. We needed funding and our options were looking like A: pivot to working on someone else’s IP, B: taking funding elsewhere where we liked the company less and would stifle our vision for the product, or C: join Krafton, D: go bankrupt and actually cease to exist. I know everyone will call doom and gloom but I still strongly believe long term this will allow us to compete in the space in a much bigger way. ---Judd

Oh I missed that.

cease to exist, new phrease +1

I wondered why he selected Krafton before, ok I get the answer now

[woven sentinel]

starting new alt :D, the horrible grind of levelling up lol

[south moat]

The grind isn't too bad
especially if you've some low vl legendaries

[woven sentinel]

will have to check my 30+ stashes lol

[feral dagger]

why are ravenous gloves good? dont understand what exactly they do

[woven sentinel]

currently leveling up a Mage for runemaster lol

[willow sentinel]

Imo best way to lvl a mage

Firestarter Torch + Calamity + Soulfire

Volcanic Orb and Fire Frostclaw

You get lvl 50 and through campaign +'normal Monos in no time

Especially if you slam some items

[woven sentinel]

level 45 atm, got someone doing corruptions 😄

so vlad, im looking for just a corruption fast build for LB Runemaster 😄 any suggestions

[main frigate]

I want a...Meteor sorcerer but no idea how to up damage for single target

The key unique item is a belt, it's tricky to balance offense and defense

[compact dawn]

straight up fireball + firestaters torch spreading flames get's thru story super quick

just path downwards on fireball, grab all the pen for spreading flames, and ignite chance, it's enough damage to kill just about anything, even story bosses go down fast if you stack a few ignites on them

[compact dawn]

For defense with sorcerer might want to do damage dealt to mana before health node near the end of sorcerer. Damage dealt to mana is 5:1 conversion, so 100 mana could block 500 damage.

Sorcerer scales with max mana pretty well, might as well go all in on it especially with high mana cost spells like meteor.

[warm spoke]

hi all. returning to play this and im fiinding connection issues. Already check faq https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1230894608406413412

How can it be that has been years and this is still an issue? Im not finding any of those solutions to solve it for me (have tested all that i can). Is there any new info on this?

[simple bison]

Are you lagging? disconnecting? not getting past the login screen?

[warm spoke]

Im disconnecting every few mins

I get to play, then disconnection sometimes in a few mins, some other times in more mins

[simple bison]

Have you tried connecting to a different server? that's not a widespread issue otherwise we'd be seeing a lot more people asking about it

[warm spoke]

Tried, jumped from SA to NAE

[stable shoal]

Sometimes you get disconnected random specially if you are not moving a lot for some reason game is like ok I am kicking you in 1 min even though I am using my character

[glacial crow]

LE disconnects gave me crap when is was fiddling with discord overlay and vpn. when i turned everything off, it was fixed for me. try that.

[strong echo]

I was using metor as my boss killer at first, as it is so expensive, but now use it as my main skill and spam it all day long, and use black hole for bosses

[obtuse bay]

jello hello 👋

[carmine smelt]

the belt is poo, it got giga nerfed

[obtuse bay]

I feel like someone in the dev team either was hating mage or never cared about it

compared to shaman and sentinel, mage feels so bricked around of skills, and not enough damage or defense

[willow sentinel]

Shaman?? Not in a great spot tbh

Or you mean Beastmaster?

[obtuse bay]

bear is better than reflect shaman

but I havent played it and still mage is bad compared to reflect imo

[willow sentinel]

Ah, I keep forgetting about reflect

[obtuse bay]

I kept saying it shaman, no worries

my bad

[willow sentinel]

Probably the only good build on shaman, and that has nothing to do with Shaman 💀💀

Avalanche > decent
Tornado > if you are not playing Storm Bolts it's trash
Totems > decent ish

[obtuse bay]

If you had skill list from best to worst, which skill would be first

[willow sentinel]

I tried Frostbite Spriggan Form as Shaman
Tanky enough but then you play a skill with no more dmg so you end up not doing dmg after 300c

More than 5min for regular Abberoth 💀💀💀

[willow sentinel]

For what class?

[obtuse bay]

every class

let's say which skill is more efficent around gears, more dmg outcome, more satisfying etc

[willow sentinel]

I only play primalist and Sentinel so idk about other classes

[obtuse bay]

then amongst of these 2

which skill would be first

difficult question so I will wait for your answer

[willow sentinel]

But I would say
Bear
Crow
Warpath
Erasing Strike
Reflect

[obtuse bay]

I also think bear is insane

[willow sentinel]

Bear and Reflect will get nerfed for sure

[obtuse bay]

or maybe they buff other skills?

[willow sentinel]

Bear could see its dmg divided by 5, it would still be strong

[willow sentinel]

They will do both

But killing Uber in 11 sec is not smth that can persist

[obtuse bay]

bear makes other classes a joke

I haven't killed uber with reflect yet

but instead of nerfing bear, I'd like to see more classes on uber, especially mage

and maybe 1 or 2 more, uber bosses more powerful than uber aberroth

and what If bosses had more health and defence instead more dmg?

and it would take more time?

more phases maybe

[ornate urchin]

best class to s tart with?

[obtuse bay]

If you want broken build, primalist + bear

[ornate urchin]

beastmaster?

[obtuse bay]

yup

[ornate urchin]

ok gonna try that oine

can I get help with bosS?

[obtuse bay]

you won't need help, trust me xD

[ornate urchin]

where do I respec sub clasS?

found it

[obtuse bay]

I can post youtube video

[ornate urchin]

argh can t afford respec

[obtuse bay]

but there are many builds with bear

so do what you like

[ornate urchin]

any tip how to get money fast?

[obtuse bay]

more corruption > increased rarity on items > design weaver tree on items (world splitter, red ring etc)

• filter for t7 exalted items
• filter for 2lp, 3lp, 4lp items

[ornate urchin]

u cant give me ? ^^

[obtuse bay]

I don't have it though I am playing with Aaron's filters

[ornate urchin]

can u h elp me with Lagon boss quest?

[obtuse bay]

wait, look at dm

[woven sentinel]

did someone say bear beastmaster @obtuse bay 😄

i hear bear beast and i perk up lol

[obtuse bay]

you have new disciplines more players for you

[woven sentinel]

yayy, even though im gonna be doing my LB build tomorrow (slowly level it up)

[obtuse bay]

If you can kill uber with it, I will be very surprised but good luck and I really want you to kill uber

[ornate urchin]

need help lagon boss quest

[woven sentinel]

haha ill give it a go :D, im gonna be using frozen sentinel's build

[obtuse bay]

the goated build 🐐

[woven sentinel]

indeed

[carmine smelt]

what you mean, Uber isn't hard to do with LB

I did on day 3 of playing the season

[woven sentinel]

just need the gold lol 😄

[obtuse bay]

can you do good damage without legendaries though

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/planner/fb6c90qy#3 it must be this build

[woven sentinel]

yep ^^ those im following

[glacial crow]

ugh what is this d4? get rid of that shit and do your own thing

d4 is an abomination that lacks any rpg elements and is entirely dependent on content creator shills to spill out a build for you

meta chasing triple a slop

rhykker. rob (aka the german beavis) and rax are all part of it

[severe socket]

At least it's not dildablo immoral.

[glacial crow]

brilliant response

but d4 is far worse than immoral, ive been there ive sank thousands of hours into it and i can verifiably say that d4 is mostly an AI generated gacha game

[severe socket]

Worse how exactly? I haven't touched the whole franchise since LoD.

[glacial crow]

consider yourself blessed. i bled so you dont have to

[severe socket]

I saw d3's early versions and noped out very quickly. 🙂

Guess I made the right decision?

[glacial crow]

d4 is basically an AI generated triple a slop game with no rpg elements whatsoever. their entire foundation lies on microtransactions

yeah 30 dollars for an armor kinda thing

the price for a whole game

[severe socket]

...yeah, RMAH was a disaster.

Then again, there's stuff like $300 for a bow skin for Cyrene in HSR...

The things the most rabid fans (read: the most unhinged whales) are capable of doing...

[glacial crow]

they nickle and dime you consistently. it might not be 300 at once, but it all adds up eventually after youve fallen into their trap

[severe socket]

Oh I know.

Good thing I have innate high AGI (for context: acquired gambling immunity). 😄

That plus parenting plus existing in a hellscape next to a literal hellscape amid EU.

[glacial crow]

its a few days ago i finally managed to uninstall that abomination that was taking up 130gb space! they did nothing with the open world! its an excuse to sell horse mounts

[severe socket]

...a-buh.

130GB...

[glacial crow]

after 4 seasons ive had enough of their crap. they never improved the game

[dusk steppe]

im just coming back to LE 😄

[severe socket]

Welcome back? 🙂

And I'm still on hiatus.

[dusk steppe]

yay 😄 ty

[severe socket]

Which, I fear, might keep getting prolonged now that my father-in-law has a life-endangering breathing issue and as such has practically moved in with us.

[woven sentinel]

casually chilling watching the R6 Munich playoffs 😄

[woven sentinel]

oof hope he gets better

[severe socket]

...yeah. Some kind of sketchy tumor close to his trachea, squeezing it up.

He ended up getting a pipe in there a couple of days ago.

[woven sentinel]

surely they should be looking to remove via surgery?

[severe socket]

Scheduled on 21st...

Hoping they will actually find something (and remove said something and not something else entirely) this time.

Our healthcare is obscene.

[glacial crow]

what country?

[severe socket]

||Belarus||.

[dusk steppe]

we have kinda good healthcare

[inner finch]

Svensk power

[severe socket]

Should've hightailed it outta there while I had a chance.

[dusk steppe]

free atleast

[glacial crow]

thats not really the west though is it?

[woven sentinel]

arent most places free? apart from usa

[severe socket]

Free from what, I wonder.

[dusk steppe]

true i guess

[woven sentinel]

costs, we dont pay

[severe socket]

Oh. That.

Well, in a sense, ours "state-provided" healthcare is kinda free as well, but its quality leaves A LOT to be desired.

[glacial crow]

sweden sweden, what can i say, i love dismember like an everflowing stream. necrophobic nocturnal silence and sacramentum far away from the sun. there is where sweden shines aside from their meatballs

[woven sentinel]

and their banks are insanly good?

[severe socket]

The fact that literally thousands of healthcare staff have fled the country over the last five+ years does NOT help.

[inner finch]

That's very considerate

[inner finch]

Second favorite after Vargskelethor

[carmine smelt]

Not sure why that is relevant, you can get your first 1lp legendaries very early on, but yeah you do good damage with just a couple uniques

[obtuse bay]

I watched both of yours and loaf's videos, build is working well but ngl, today is first time seeing this build

[inner finch]

Frozen is good at showcasing builds that look entirely unintended by EHG

Its almost a staple at this point

[carmine smelt]

LB is probably the most normal build I've done tbh, I don't think it's that far into unintended

[glacial crow]

unintended is the way to go

[carmine smelt]

Considering its kinda just a better version of 1.2 LB, and the legends entwined interaction with vilatria was probably the most "obvious" one, I would think this build is intended

[glacial crow]

unintended intentionality

sounds like a time travelling trope

this must be what void damage looks like

[glacial crow]

as long as we got muffin gear everything will be ok

its premium stuff tho, but here's to hoping

the next season will be muffinized, if you dont have enough calories on your crafted gear, then youre outta luck

[inner finch]

[brave grove]

the thing that really puzzles me is how D3 kept getting support for so long.
It wasn't a lot of support, but up until D4 released they had someone doing D3 balance updates, making new seasonal mechanics, occasionally throwing in a new armour set.
I can't imagine D3 was bringing in enough money to pay for that, given it was a buy-once game with no season passes, no cosmetic sales, and the real money auction house was long gone.

I have this pet theory that someone was doing it as a spare time project for free, or maybe a D3 dev made a secret office behind a vending machine where HR didn't know to find him.

[inner finch]

D3 had a skeleton crew that was always working on content

Sometimes there was added crew, sometimes not much

At a certain point, there was a version to include both the RoS DLC and RMAH, but that was gone by the time we got 2.0

[brave grove]

I can't believe it was actually profitable for them to do so, but I'm glad they did for everyone who just booted up D3 and played it once a season. I'd stopped giving blizz any of my time or money in 2019, but I'm still glad the people playing D3 got actual updates for that long.

[inner finch]

According to them, RMAH earned them about 17M

in the scope of things, its not much

[glacial crow]

d4? does anyone even dare mention that abomination?

i can write a book why that game is the worst game in the arpg industry, and even makes flops like d3 look like masterpieces

i hope the muffin will wipe this slate clean

[inner finch]

D4 is far from the worst game in this industry, but it is a good example of horrid mismanagement

[glacial crow]

in their last interviews they hid their background because they know frostylaroo would make a video about them.

[inner finch]

Im sure that's the primary reason for the game's problems

a dude who makes AI meme music about Diablo

[glacial crow]

AI is basically d4

all these people whining about krafton is unwarranted, i know that ehg will retain some creative control

but d4 is a fullblown AI generated game

there's a difference between using AI as a tool and fully relying on it

[inner finch]

I would love if you can tell me specifically what in D4 was AI generated

and provide some evidence

[glacial crow]

ive sank thousands of ours into and even geniuses like accursed farms can tell you, all dungeons and open areas were pretty much AI generated

[inner finch]

Ill be generous and remind you that the development of D4 has started several years before ChatGPT and media generative models were ever public

[glacial crow]

the d4 dungeons feel like they been designed by ai

[inner finch]

They can feel like that, but that's a very blanket statement. The design of D4's individual assets was actually hand-coded

[glacial crow]

i can tell when something has been organically designed and ai generated

[inner finch]

The dungeon layout is based on an algorithm that actually exists for quite a while in its core

it relies on a few general types of chunks with rules to it

[glacial crow]

look, maybe they havent used chat gp then, but they have used some automated processes in designing their dungeons, just run a bunch of them, they're mindlessly numb

[inner finch]

There are dungeon generation algorithms, but it doesnt really relate to anything machine learning or large language model

All ARPG games of today have a dungeon generation system, including PoE and LE

Each tile has its own rules

[glacial crow]

well their algorithm is designed by a 4 year old then, because i would be insulting ai's intelligence

[inner finch]

Most dungeon layouts in D4 are quite standard, really

[glacial crow]

they all look like the same

[inner finch]

Its something that in essense was carried from the days of Warcraft

[glacial crow]

something lazy and pre-designed was definitely at work

[inner finch]

Yes, but predefined layouts have their own group of risks

one of them is fatigue and predictability, which players get bored of quickly

[glacial crow]

ive never seen dungeons with such a lazy, uninspired and downright moronically predictable design

[inner finch]

Its sort of why Last Epoch, for example, had to work on a randomly generating dungeon system for this season

[glacial crow]

my mistake is that i blamed it on ai. sorry. because ai is brilliant compared to these morons

[inner finch]

There are a lot of things to praise D4 on. I think character models, visuals, enviornmental design and sound design are the best in the industry. It is true that a lot of gameplay aspects need a complete rethink

But its not going to happen, probably ever

[glacial crow]

i think if you were to fire 90% of the d4 staff and replace them with ai, we may not have a masterpiece, but certainly a better game

yeah they put effort on the cosmetics

but thats not enough

[inner finch]

I don't believe developers are incompetent, just their management

They are clearly mismanaged

[glacial crow]

do you think that woke politics and cashgrab has absolutely nothing to do with it?

[inner finch]

This is a for profit company, but there are many ways to earn money. They choose the ways that fit them, and we can choose with our wallets

[glacial crow]

do you sleep at night? are you a night owl?

[inner finch]

By design, there exist no P2W or pay to progress mechanics in D4

So, it can be worse

if you visit some CN/KR MMOs/ARPGs, you will see that they almost work like phone booths in terms of money in exchange for progression

[glacial crow]

theres no need for p2w b/c theyre already charging you 25 bucks for an armor, and a horse mount to traverse the dead unused open world

[inner finch]

I never felt the need to buy anything from the cosmetics store

[glacial crow]

but somebody else will

[inner finch]

The selection of free and farmable cosmetics is quite rich, and we can colorize it all

At the current state, its a game that does character cosmetics way better than LE, simply because it offers you a complete back-catalog of all the items you have salvaged as apperal, and lets you recolor them freely

[glacial crow]

i will say this: d4 gameplay sucks, but LE really needs to bring in better armors, because the d4 armors look way better than the crap theyre selling right now.

you hipsters need to stop hipstering

and design better armors than d4

[inner finch]

EHG is working to better improve their cosmetics

im not worried

[glacial crow]

d4 only has cosmetics and ragdoll animations

but there is no build variety

for example, give a non-chaos armor staff of the crone build than can push pit beyond 100+

you cant find it

because the company relies on shills and meta pushing

[inner finch]

idk, i havent touched D4 in a long time

[glacial crow]

then take it from me, its a dirty business

your rhetoric sounds cute, but you havent been down in the trenches

[quick magnet]

Hopefully not because people come out like this

Just put the game down. It's ok.

[glacial crow]

play grim dawn, it allows to roleplay any build you want and be good at it

thats all i gotta say

[inner finch]

I haven't posted any thetoric, really

I take everything at face value, and with a fair chance and outlook

im not fueled by agenda, hate or any bias towards media

[glacial crow]

who would you trust concerning knowledge, the nerdy expert that looks like he doesnt lift or ronnie coleman who looks like he lifted the atlas on his back?

[quick magnet]

I'm as cynical as the next millennial but this is well past the point of reason.

[glacial crow]

im ronnie fking coleman, trust my advice

dont trust this nerd who doesnt lift

[inner finch]

I extrapolate all info i need, thanks

Part of me feels like the debris that settles in this community is gonna be what kills it before any corporate misstep gets the chance.

[glacial crow]

no the debris is gonna make this game great, because we dont need pats on the back, we need facts to help us grow

we dont need circle jerk

[south moat]

You and your alts are very popular around here.

[glacial crow]

it doesnt matter, eventually the beef will tire out and life will go on

[south moat]

Yeah, so why haven't you tired out yet

[glacial crow]

because im bored at work

[south moat]

Yeah, sure. Work

[glacial crow]

i have to slave 12 hours at the desk

coding takes all day

[quick magnet]

Also the fact that the entire mod role has been pinged twice and...no one is here strikes me as a tad worrisome.

[glacial crow]

i am the mod you morons

im datamining so you dont have to

[south moat]

Well the currently online mods are afk and it's not like they're paid

[glacial crow]

go dm them, maybe you can have your big break

[south moat]

And I certainly have things to do with my time

I would do it if I absolutely had to but the scorched and salted earth I would leave behind to send a message to these sorts of ghouls would not go over well

5 day work 2 day off

look before the mods cap my ass, i'll be nice. have you seen me during the week post here?

[stable shoal]

Imagine being so cringe as an adult🤣

[south moat]

and saying they'll leave the server and not then following

[woven sentinel]

what the hell happened?

[glacial crow]

can someone explain to me legendary potential, from what i need an ascendant item of the same type, where do i craft that?

[woven sentinel]

LP items can be slammed with any perks you want as long as its same item. i.e wand/wand

[south moat]

So let's say you have 1h axe with legendary potential
and you have an exalted 1h axe (exalted meaning that it has tier 6 or 7 mod on it)
you can combine these 2
1LP gives 1 of the affixes of the exalted, 2LP gives 2 of the affixes and so on
the dungeon you need to run is temporal sanctum
and if you run a tier2 or higher you can select the affix you want

[woven sentinel]

explained like a nub 😄

[glacial crow]

so i need temporal sanctum to make it happen

[south moat]

Yes
The game also does explain it in the in game guide that you can open by pressing G
and searching "Legendary"

[woven sentinel]

yawnn love u nub 😄

[copper sorrel]

No need to leave. Its just that we take pride in following a certain code on how to communicate with people and thus like to point out the vast difference in tone. I dont think its necessary bad, just maybe unfortunate for you to get met with more aggression. Its your own fault tho and you can change

[glacial crow]

does that atffix lock thing affect this or? im confused

[south moat]

What do you mean affix lock?
Like... sealed affix? you can't pick sealed affix for it

[glacial crow]

yeah the sealed thing scared me

[south moat]

Also, the exalted item you want to use for slamming needs to have 4 unsealed affixes.
Sealed affixes are ignored
and if you want to try with an item that only has the exalted affix it doesn't work because it doesn't have 4 affixes

[south moat]

You shouldn't

[woven sentinel]

Whyyy not

[south moat]

We don't even know each other.
Time is fleeting
I'm also already engaged to the love of my life

[woven sentinel]

Lmao 🤣

[strong echo]

D4 art direction, is the only thing they got right

[glacial crow]

sort of really, even that is debateable

i think they created a mediocre aesthetic direction with fake rpg elements

i think their revenue comes from the cosmetic shop

I’m running 30 normal abberoth runs if anyone needs free kills

Appears i missed all the fun again

Dinner took a while today. Lol

[sonic sinew]

anybody knows if corruption level affects turtle LP rolls ??

[sly turret]

Any info about when new season?

[calm igloo]

Does not

Rerolls as if it dropped with no corruption I’m pretty sure

Rolling in nemesis at high corruption is your best bet

Nemesis egg I mean

[sonic sinew]

ye but corruption dont work on nemesis either :P

was sure turtle be same case

kinda good tbh

dont feel extra pressure to push corruption on hardcore

[inner finch]

nah, you havent.

there's still a chance

[night marten]

Why would you say this

[calm igloo]

What fun are we referring to

[inner finch]

well...

You know what, nvm lol

nothing happened here that requires any disciplinary action

[calm igloo]

Are you sure about this? I assumed it did

For example I’ve rolled something crazy like 75 1LP sword catchers at the turtle with not one turning to 2Lp but I’ve stuck a ton of non LP sword catchers into the nemesis egg and I think I got 4 different 2Lp ones, so I assumed that meant my 1,600 corruption was giving nemesis egg better odds

[carmine smelt]

iirc corruption works for exalts with nemesis, but not LP for nemesis or turtle

[calm igloo]

I trust frozen

[simple bison]

Correct

[wanton tartan]

Im thinking of getting a new gaming laptop will a gtx geforce 5050 and AMD Ryzen 5 240 a good laptop to run last epoch?

[obtuse bay]

minimum requirements
Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
OS: Windows 10
PROCESSOR: Intel Core i5 2500 or AMD FX-4350
MEMORY: 8 GB RAM
GRAPHICS: nVidia GTX 1060 / AMD RX 580 with 6GB of VRAM
DIRECTX: Version 11
NETWORK: Broadband Internet connection
STORAGE: 22 GB available space
ADDITIONAL NOTES: SSD strongly recommended

[carmine smelt]

Assuming it doesnt overheat

[obtuse bay]

this is why I sold my 4060 laptop 😭

I wasnt playing le back then but lack of fans and heat on keyboard are just insane

[wanton tartan]

I found another laptop with gtx 3000 and I core 5 12th gen maybe that one might be better

I never heard of a amd ryzen 5 240 processor before

[hasty solar]

Ts

[severe socket]

Keep in mind that having higher base frequency is beneficial not just for gaming, but for overall daily stuff as well.

Same goes for larger cache.

Never get a 50 series 5050 or lower specially cause performance is pretty meh compared to 5060 that works same for previous version and a gtx 5050 its actually a 5040 cause laptops cant use same hardware for example a 4090 laptop its actually a 4080 in reality they just tell you its the 4090 but thats a lie when you look the specs.

[dusk steppe]

when is the next season?

[wanton tartan]

I don't think a 5050 is in my budget the laptop Im running rn is using gtx 1650 as the gpu

[stable shoal]

I thought you said you were eyeing that my bad then

[dusk steppe]

does spell damage affect mionions?

[willow sentinel]

No official date, it's expected December/January (probably January now)

[willow sentinel]

If it doesn't say minion, then no

[dusk steppe]

ty for info 😄

[wanton tartan]

Oh I thought you were taking about something else. I'm wondering though if it's a decent laptop to still upgrade to considering that it's better than my specs rn

[stable shoal]

Depends on the price a 4060 may have same performance and maybe same price or cheaper ,I just dont wanna regret buying a laptop nowadays with how expensive a good one is compared to a pc nowadays

Just check specs and price before sometimes difference between a 50 and 60 is very little and the the 60 is usually a lot better performance

[copper sorrel]

Get a handheld asus rog ally. These can play le on a Screen with keyboard and mouse if you want for less than 1k $

[sly turret]

When new season?

[green stream]

@sly turret literally right here

[steady bison]

Can Anybody help me out

[willow sentinel]

With what?

[steady bison]

Check sentinel chat

[woven sentinel]

hi

How's it going all?

[fervent musk]

ngl a mage spell blade build where you hit the ground and throw out projectiles would be cool

[woven sentinel]

Taking break from LE but will still talk and try help

[obtuse bay]

jello hello 👋

[obtuse bay]

it sounds like "you got retired"

[thorny sapphire]

How long does the campaign typically take?

[obtuse bay]

5-6 hours for me

[thorny sapphire]

I'm new to the game. What sorts of things should I hone in on with the crafting system while I'm leveling a sentinel?

Only level 14 at the moment

[pearl orbit]

It'll take you much longer than 6 hours on your first playthrough

[pearl orbit]

Use whatever you find tbh

No sense saving for later

You get more later 🙂

[obtuse bay]

crafting in early game might be useless for you because it won't be efficient for your build

campaign takes 10 chapters

[thorny sapphire]

That makes sense to me. I fully and completely finished the D4 season and there's not enough time for me to start season 36 in D3. Actually playing LE to endgame made a lot of sense to me lol

[obtuse bay]

once you finished the campaign, and chose mastery class, there are more things to do

[thorny sapphire]

It's something that I've put off because it's easier to repeat that which you know than to start something that's novel

[obtuse bay]

right now, it's better not to spoil it lol

[thorny sapphire]

wait can I not choose paladin at level 15? or is mastery class different?

[obtuse bay]

you cant

[tardy bison]

lol wat

[obtuse bay]

you need to have 20 points

and there is a mission

[pearl orbit]

Mastery is unlocked at a point in campaign, keep playing

[thorny sapphire]

gotcha. Yeah I was confused wondering if finishing campaign was a requirement. If it was the paladin leveling build on Maxroll seems sus lol

[pearl orbit]

It's pretty early on. If you have 20 points you are close

[thorny sapphire]

I have like 16 I think?

[obtuse bay]

some missions also give skill points

so it was lvl18 If I remember correctly

but still even you get mastery class, you need points and levels to unlock new skills

so you won't get powerful all of sudden

[thorny sapphire]

ah that makes sense

hopefully I'm able to grasp the crafting system by the time I get to end game lol

Items that I can't use -- should I be vendoring them?

[obtuse bay]

I will say - yes because levels of gears and you don't have item filter so I guess, your items have low tiers

and you will find many items

[thorny sapphire]

what site do you use to download/import a loot filter?

does such a site exist like does for POE?

[obtuse bay]

yes but I prefer you to choose your mastery and main skill first, meanwhile you can grind few items in the campaign that might be useful for you

[thorny sapphire]

oh sure. I didn't plan on using one until endgame

[obtuse bay]

and you can also store your items in your stash/chest

you can buy many stash tabs

[thorny sapphire]

mysterious rifts to the ancient era, should I take those each time I see them?

[thorny sapphire]

using gold?

[pearl orbit]

you dont need a filter that early tbh

[obtuse bay]

yep, you can't buy stash tabs with another currency

[obtuse bay]

ancient era is actually the big map, you will see it more in the campaign

[main frigate]

I hear a new player is here?

[obtuse bay]

and rifts are good for unique items but they require some pieces to buy those items

you need to focus on completing campaign for now

everything will be more clear

[thorny sapphire]

ty everyone 🙂

[glacial crow]

nub, aka the fake mod, has no idea of perfected aesthetics.

he reminds me of those pharisees back in j-man days

he knows whats right, but has no idea how to decorate it

screw your stupid cat avatar too

[south moat]

ok

[glacial crow]

listen, im youre really starting to scare, because youre online all the damn time

when was the last time you went outside?

[south moat]

Just 2hours ago actually

Went for a nice & long walk and then cooked after that.

[glacial crow]

what did you eat

[south moat]

Wouldn't you like to know.

[glacial crow]

indulge me

[south moat]

No.

[glacial crow]

because your food is too good for me?

im an inferior being compared to you?

[south moat]

Yes.
And also here I thought you said yesterday that you're leaving the server

[glacial crow]

i dont care about morebucks

whatever the fk her name is

she's on my friends list but we rarely converse

now pray tell me about your great cooking skillz

geez ask the mods we have different ip addresses, and even if i was using a vpn, dont you know opposites actually dont attract? similar people are similar people

[main frigate]

?

[glacial crow]

paranoia is a terrible drug

nobody knows how much im creating a great game here

just stop with the parada and make nub president. i really do want him to take a stand at the office because he's extremely vigilant.

its a rare quality nowadays

ive been trying to get you into the mod team but you keep refusing

[obtuse bay]

nub wants to be a mod?

[south moat]

No.

[glacial crow]

he's too humble

i admire his razor sharp pedantic qualities

put him in the office, its your loss if you dont

you can thank me later

[obtuse bay]

but he doesn't want it

[glacial crow]

thats the problem, what a loss

[obtuse bay]

hello wick 👋

[honest belfry]

I think it's time to change the conversation. I can't see how this could become positive.
Points have been made, so let's move on

[glacial crow]

i'll vote for you nub no matter what

[main frigate]

This conversation is confusing

[glacial crow]

time travel always is

what is the story of LE really?

can anyone explain?

since the game is heavily inspired by chrono trigger, and lovecraft, does anything have to make sense?

[simple bison]

Gavryn has made a really good series about the lore in LE, if you want a full breakdown of the story I think that's your best bet, here's the first video in the series
https://youtu.be/9qWHFPmMYNA?si=zqDDoa3bf0_Ihz24

[glacial crow]

i will try not to be your typical braindead arpg player and actually give a damn

because behind slaying thousands of monsters, lies a sweet sensitive heart? right nub? because you care

since im a genius, what i can say is that the story of last epoch is mythology retold with a modern veneer

gotcha, i'll take it

i hope they dont screw up titan quest 2

as much as i love grim dawn, they did not develop TQ 2

also cyborgwars has got to be best and most tolerant mod ive ever seen

balls of steel, true giga chad

maybe you can sign up for the no rest for the wicked dev team, they could use someone like you

[simple bison]

I'm not very active in that community so I don't think I'd be a very good fit to moderate it. But thanks for the kind thoughts. I've been meaning to play more nrftw.

[glacial crow]

i bought it, but i figured, i hate playing unfinished products, so i guess i'll be saluting that game in lets say 2-3 years from now

so this means we're discussing timelines again, what a fascinating topic. i watched a longplay of quantum break by redemy studios, and then decided to play Control, and i even got it for full dlc price at 4 bucks! great game, i sank 30 hours to complete everything

but then came alan wake 2, and i will not touch that woke abomination

the game isn't even about alan wake!

its pretty much why diablo 4 has no diablo, just excuses

[strange umbra]

good morning friendos

morning for me anyway 😛

[glacial crow]

the only person i fear is muffin

[strange umbra]

trust your instincts

[glacial crow]

i know right

[strange umbra]

[glacial crow]

you made your name extra thick, i like it

how many muffins have you devoured in your lifespan?

[strange umbra]

so many

[glacial crow]

lost count right?

[strange umbra]

pmuch

[south moat]

Good morning Muffin

[strange umbra]

hiya nub

[woven sentinel]

Lmao 🤣

It's the muffin man

[main frigate]

Gavryn don't active anymore but his channel go better and better, great

[strange umbra]

WHERE

[woven sentinel]

Do you know the muffin man

[strange umbra]

yes

[glacial crow]

i think muffin is the most cold, black hearted fiend there was, i bet he takes his coffee totally black!

[strange umbra]

absolutely not

lol

[glacial crow]

the embodiment of pure evil!

yes, means no!

[woven sentinel]

No he takes his tea black

[glacial crow]

see i told you!

every time i killed mephisto, i knew, the muffin would spawn out of him

[strange umbra]

lmao

[woven sentinel]

I love how Ur x handle is thedrury lane HAHAHA

[main frigate]

oh...Gavryn quit here and deleted me.

:(

[strange umbra]

all of my socials are muffin man song refs ya lol

[woven sentinel]

I think we need a muffin man Easter egg hidden into season 4 😄

[strange umbra]

I also own a handful of URLs I am - working on setting up a resume/portfolio website for funsies to keep some web dev skills sharp

[glacial crow]

the muffin abyss will stare back at you, so we have to be careful on how to handle such a formidable force

[woven sentinel]

I'll just eat the muffin and gingerbread man

[strange umbra]

https://tenor.com/ueFo.gif

[glacial crow]

i understand your feelings, how many times have i eaten you?

[woven sentinel]

Oh no no never legs first. Always head haha

I don't wanna see it's face when I'm demolishing the rest of the body haha

[grave flare]

When new season

[woven sentinel]

When it comes out

[grave flare]

Bruh

[woven sentinel]

No date as of yet

[grave flare]

That suxs

[woven sentinel]

Well continue on in season 3 get Ur builds Uber worthy kill Uber then make another build

[grave flare]

What we need is to balance the damage

[simple bison]

Current guestimate is late dec early jan

[grave flare]

Releasing during d4 and poe2 would be fatal yea

[woven sentinel]

D4 sucks ass since they wanted ya to pay for the d3 character yeah no thanks. No spending £30 for 1 character

[grave flare]

Lol

And poe2 is a boring ass game
To me personally
Poe1 is great ( well current season mechanic sucks)

[woven sentinel]

And they have a gold issue in season 10. People found out how to duplicate again?

My mistake you can make 10 million gold per run of a infernal horde. Yeah their market place crashed hard

[glacial crow]

d4 sucks ass? what else is new

130 gb, tricking you into an open world that has absolutely nothing but to sell you horse cosmetics

nothing to see here folks, move along

[woven sentinel]

Not to mention, no "real" market place you have to use a website or discord tradings

And with the fact you can make 10million+ per run of a horde. Yeah your paying over priced for weapons yet again. Like back in season 2/3

[glacial crow]

but thats nowhere near as bad as the fact that there's no builds in the game, like zero

[woven sentinel]

Same build every season isn't it?

[glacial crow]

unless you follow maxroll rhykker/perra/rob the german beavis builds

thats the problem

[woven sentinel]

Hotbarb, lightning sorc, that dual wielding rogue build

[glacial crow]

meta shill gaming in an arpg is unacceptable

you should always be able to do your own thing and make it work

[buoyant turret]

i scrapped my day 1 poe build because the mechanic is such a nightmare to see through. one day they'll figure it out

[woven sentinel]

I saw on utube a stupidly overpowered Poe build

[glacial crow]

unfortunately they will not, poe will continue to be angrily, and deceptively complex

i think they relish that

[woven sentinel]

Ooo my R6 finals start soon ooo.

[buoyant turret]

you'd think ten plus years in and many, many complaints later, that using season mechanics that blanket the screen so you cant see anything would be an obvious no no

[woven sentinel]

Haha 😂 owell who's excited for season 4 of LE?

Can't wait to see what new builds become meta or old builds suddenly become meta

[south moat]

I'll be excited when it's actually announced and we have info

[solemn bluff]

How do I open the Altar of Oblivion? I have 2 keys, but it keeps telling me I am still not strong enough.

[woven sentinel]

You need to complete all 10 normal monoliths and kill the bosses (echo quests)

Then you will get a quest to kill abberoth

[woven sentinel]

Ikr I feel that but they are working hard on it 🙂

[glacial crow]

nothing is hard unless the muffin says so

he understands the hard life in the trenches unlike any of us

[woven sentinel]

The muffin man has ran away

[glacial crow]

i hate cilantro, it tastes like shit

if nub is cooking that nonsense im gonna stop vouching for him

im like julia child, i can impress you all day long, but the moment you bring that devil herb in there you lost me

https://tenor.com/view/cilantro-soap-cilantro-soap-gross-herbs-and-spices-gif-18193759501276169793

damnit i just exposed my weakness to my enemy, now nub is going to wave that thing like a magic wand from now on to keep me away, doh!

congrats, history to the victor and vice versa

[pearl orbit]

heresy

[glacial crow]

why do vampires hate garlic - is that heresy too?
