Oh hi Mike
I'm playing Ice Barrage online and when i'm killing enemy behind the screen my game turns from ARPG to Turn-Based Strategy (drop to 1-10 fps), its not happening in offline, so is it known issue with server or it is a bug? thx

[placid plinth]

Not yet

[prisma flume]

About every 10-15 minutes in game my character permanently desyncs. I'll see damage numbers and other things, but no animations. My hp will drop and I can cast spells but I don't see any animations or summons. If I try to teleport out or go to another zone it just hangs forever and never takes me to the zone. Is this a known issue?

[placid plinth]

I'm sorry, I don't have a list of known bugs handy. If you experience a bug, please go to the forums to report it.

[snow goblet]

For the purposes of party play though it seems safe to assume that any effect that says "Ally" will apply to my friends and the friends they bring with them

[placid plinth]

see my reply to the other person right after your post

[placid plinth]

yea, even your party member's minions' minions

[rough stream]

Is there any bonus to playing in a group? like increased drop rate or exp or anything?

[faint kernel]

I have seen this a couple times. is this a bug?

[placid plinth]

yes

[snow goblet]

Are there any buffs that aren't applicable to minions? (from a technical standpoint more so than a lack of skills that can actually apply them)

[faint kernel]

i meant to say "known" bug

[placid plinth]

Kinda. There isn't any of those things but you can gift gear to each other so if you can coordinate well, you can get a bump in gear by sharing.

[placid plinth]

no idea

!bug

[fiery lily]

To make sure a bug gets fixed, please post about it here: https://forum.lastepoch.com/c/bug-reports.

[placid plinth]

Yes, there are several buffs that are very specific and are only designed to go on a player. Technically, almost all of them could go on a minion but it would require some reworking and would be a performance hit.

[snow goblet]

Is this a secret list of problem children players aren't allowed to know about yet?

[placid plinth]

It's actually a skill in game.

[untold goblet]

Hey mike , any update on when the routing will be fixed ? I'm still getting connected to the wrong server :/

[placid plinth]

I have no updates. I get my info from#news

[untold goblet]

Kk , thank you

[snow goblet]

That's a fun enough scavenger hunt for me, thanks for the info on allied units

[twilit portal]

Hello Mike, has anyone reported the ability to dupe items? I believe I just encountered this and was wondering if I should do anything outside of submit a ticket.

[mild tapir]

are they going fix this game or what im waiting 2days now cant play online

[placid plinth]

1st I've heard of it, #support ticket would be fantastic, thank you

[wooden bridge]

When is bed time Mike? You deserve it.

[twilit portal]

Understood. Thanks for your time.

[placid plinth]

We've been pushing out a lot of server updates to fix many of the problems. It's not quite working great for everyone yet but we're working on it.

[placid plinth]

I think I'm going to give it another hour tops.

[wooden bridge]

Well since you're sticking around then , is there plans to expand on the UI for Buffs

[placid plinth]

Yes but I don't think we have plans to make it universal as there are so many that would just gum up the works.

[mystic musk]

Ah, this reminds me of an issue i encountered last night with Erza's Ledger that resulted in getting both uniques - is this a known issue? I couldn't find anything about it in the bug reports forum

[wooden bridge]

Universal as in?

[placid plinth]

We know that one, it's much much less problematic.

[placid plinth]

If every stat buff showed up on your ui in the buff bar section, it would be terrible.

[mystic musk]

naturally, just wanted to see if it was a known issue before filing a bug report - didn't want to clog the forum with a duplicate report if avoidable

[wooden bridge]

Very fair point, alright, I'll tuck you into bed now

[placid plinth]

In general, please just go straight to the forums with bugs.

[mystic musk]

noted

[cyan oak]

Are the unique armors eventually going to get 3d art?

[placid plinth]

not by 1.0. possibly after

[prisma flume]

What's this mean:

[winter raptor]

Is there any chance that we can get a standalone client? Hate being tied to steam for games like this.

[old turret]

the standalone was just done away with for steam only

[mystic musk]

it does what it says on the tin - this is applied when you load into a new area / transition zones to prevent you from taking unreactable damage

[winter raptor]

That's pain.

[iron yacht]

Will there be an option to change interface scaling? I’m playing on 4:3 (iPad with moonlight stream) and all working fine … except the skill trees… some of the last nodes at the sides are out of the screen and can’t be reached :)

[placid plinth]

we don't have plans to support 4:3 resolutions

[orchid birch]

Mike, it's only 11:15 atm in Colorado, so I guess it's still early, but I bet you've been up for almost 2 days, in a few hours go take a nap and then we can all be up early and do some early morning breakfast gaming.... lol ;p xD

Is it intentional that i have to attempt to get my flame wraiths back each new zone or is that something new that needs fixing just asking as its a little annoying lol
Context i have perma wraiths but when they zone into a new zone they turn back to mele ones

[smoky rover]

Heorot's Protection, Warrior's Entrance, and Frenzied Onslaught are not working with Maul after taking the Skull Crusher passive (Fury Leap skills apply to Maul) is this because Maul does not leap or is it supposed to apply to it and it's currently bugged right now?

[placid plinth]

sounds like a bug

!bug

[fiery lily]

Please post bug reports on our forum: https://forum.lastepoch.com/c/bug-reports. Thanks!

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure what the exact bug is. (I don't know all those nodes off the top of my head) but regardless, it's best to just post bug reports on the forums.

!bug

Please post bug reports on our forum: https://forum.lastepoch.com/c/bug-reports. Thank you. :smile:

[orchid birch]

I'm only good at writing Discord bots, which still sometimes take hundred of lines of code, if something is actually a bug please make a bug report...its a can of worms to diagnose each bug, esp if you are writing a game with tens or hundreds of thousands lines of code lol xD

[umbral jungle]

Are we supposed to be able to do dungeons coop? My friend can't join lightless arbor with me, we can open the dungeon door but there's no portal into the dungeon behind it for the person that didn't open the door

[orchid birch]

fairly certain that is a bug lol :x

[keen grove]

Hey Mike how you doing tonight?
Had a few questions about the new Serpent strike that I couldn't quite find answers to if you wouldn't mind.

-venom damage. I think the site says 300 base. My assumption is that this is 100/s for 3 seconds. Though every other ailment is listed as the DPS. Was curious what the actual damage is.

-the armor shred node implies poison shred as well (well, posion lol)
But doesn't seem to give poison shred. Am I mis reading it or is it a bug?

-the crit strike node. I assume the game just looks at whatever your current melee crit chance is to determine the buff to damage. But if I were to take Swarmblade base crit chance node would I also gain that as venom damage? What about outside buffs like sorcs crit buff from lightning blast or a crit shrine?

-finally. What is 'high health' enemies. My assumption is above 80%. But that's kind of a wild guess.

[orchid birch]

He may currently be unconscious in his chair at work, lets give the dudes 3-4 hours to at least take a nap lol :x

[keen grove]

Ooohh. Gotcha, no worries. I thought it was late. :3

[placid plinth]

I need node screenshots to answer most of those just to see how they are worded. high health is 80 or 85% I can't remember which off the top of my head and I'm so close to going to bed, I don't want to boot up the editor just to check I'm sorry

(it takes forever)

[orchid birch]

Go to sleep brother lol ❤️ see you in the morning, probably very early lol 🙂

[keen grove]

No worries. I'm at work myself right now. I'll hit you up some other time if I don't find answers by then ❤️ get some sleep

[restive geode]

how's the priority if shadow's and my bladestorms are overlapped?

[placid plinth]

I can't say for sure right now. I didn't set that one up but if I had it would be that the oldest one would win because it would be already damaging it when the second one tried to start.

[edgy cargo]

Animated Bones in the Ransacked Camp is bugging out and not progressing. Anyone have any ideas? I kill the spawner and nothing happens.

[orchid birch]

Mike is insane, I think the rest of them are already asleep, let mike go to sleep for a few hours please lol xD

We can bug them all in the morning lol.... xD

Oh my bad, this is the wrong spot

[restive geode]

then dealing with much stronger shadow's bladestorm might be tricky...

[placid plinth]

I'm going to get some sleep. I'll be back on again for a bit this weekend but not as much as these last couple days. I'll see if someone else wants to open it back up at some point too.

Good morning, Mike.

[wooden bridge]

First I'd like to start off by giving you a freebie, whats it like personally to watch the peak player count grow day by day for you as a member of the dev team?

[placid plinth]

I suspect it's something akin to and out of body experience. It doesn't quite feel real yet.

[kind nexus]

Oh no. It's open

[nova gull]

Is there no SA server anymore? I'm getting put on US Central

[wooden bridge]

38k and counting, a little over double from patch day, and nearly 5 times since prior to patch, love to see it for you guys.

[placid plinth]

there is a known bug that causes some SA players to get mistakenly pushed to US central

[kind nexus]

Mike question for another user. Is there any way to check what renderer LE is using? Guy is on a 2070 S in ask the community and he is getting like 10 fps consistently

I'm worried LE is pulling his onboard graphics somehow

[dusk shore]

Hey @placid plinth,

When ladder will be avaliable for 0.9.0 on the website? 🙂

[placid plinth]

It's built in Unity, need more info than that?

[placid plinth]

sorry, no, the ladder didn't make it in for 0.9

[quasi crown]

can this be a shard?

[dreamy gate]

Hello! any news for le-51 error please? my friend just bought the game and he cant play 😦

[placid plinth]

all affixes that can appear on magic, rare and exalted items can be shards

[placid plinth]

sorry to hear that. Unfortunately I can't help with any support requests in this channel. We know that some users are still experiencing some issues and we are working to get them resolved. The next hotfix update is scheduled for Monday.

[dreamy gate]

Okay! no problem 🙂

[true minnow]

What happened to the pre order pet? Any mention of it and the MTX gold is gone in the store now?

[placid plinth]

basically the same answer as just above

The store to purchase new items won't be available until 0.9.1 but previously granted items from supporter packs should be available in an upcoming hotfix

[reef wind]

Well I had some items saved up for my build for later, and TONS of shards and craft materials from my session yesterday. It all seems to have been reset/lost. Any way to get it returned?

[placid plinth]

sorry to hear that. Unfortunately I can't help with any support requests in this channel. We know that some users are still experiencing some issues and we are working to get them resolved. The next hotfix update is scheduled for Monday.

[rigid cedar]

Mana Strike has the node that converts mana gain into ward gain (Transfusion). Does the amount of ward received get increased from nodes that increase mana gain from Mana Strike (such as Mana Drain, which gives 20% more mana gained)?

[placid plinth]

yes

[quasi crown]

any place you can get certain shards? or just do monolith

[placid plinth]

the only way to influence which shards drop as shards is to get the corresponding monolith blessings.

You can also pick nodes which have base type rewards for the slot that the shard you are looking for is on so that you can shatter the items which drop

[placid plinth]

it is very likely that we will add a way to convert shards from one to another at some sort of loss ratio

[molten zealot]

I have a question regarding the mages lightning Blast. If you skill "Divergence" it says that it can fork or chain, but it looks like it exclusively forks now. How does it decide if it chains or forks? And as a followup to forking with "Fronloaded" skilled, which reduces dmg per chain: When it forks and hits 3 targets, are all of them considered the first target with regards to the dmg penalty per chain?

[rigid cedar]

Am I right in assuming that Arcanist's Blade (+3 mana gain on hit) is the same as Ward Strike (+3 ward gain on hit) would be equally good, assuming 100% mana to ward conversion?

[placid plinth]

unless the conversion node says that it converts at some rate other than 100%, yes

[teal trail]

in the "list of upcoming fixes" are those the only skill fixes that are coming with the bugfix next week or are there more?
if no, is there an ETA on the other bugged skills?

[placid plinth]

that node has had some funky behavior in the past, it might not be working quite perfectly, I think it attempts to fork first and if it can't, chain.
only the first target is the first target

[placid plinth]

those are the only ones we are ready to commit to at the moment but that doesn't mean we will actively never change that list or anything. We don't have any information on any others available at the moment.

[fiery magnet]

sometimes when i turn off my transformation into swarblade i lose all my hotkeys any reason for that?

[teal trail]

it's a bug

[molten zealot]

Okay cool. To clarify that I understood the second part of the answer. If it forks to three targets it decides which target is first, second and third and then the damage is reduced accordingly?
Also thank you so much for offering this opportunity to ask questions. Thats awesome ❤️

[placid plinth]

yes

[wheat hill]

do ailments applied by the lightning tendrils from arcing blast node count as applied by detonating arrow for the deadly ailments node (25% more DoT for ailments applied by detonating arrow)

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure how the node is worded exactly but given your description, it should, yes

[golden mortar]

Ranged Mana Strike still seems to be applying melee damage sources. Is this a bug?

[placid plinth]

"Ranged" isn't a damage type.
The 4 types are:
Melee
Spell
Bow
Throwing

Converting mana strike into a ranged ability, doesn't change its damage type from melee.

[golden mortar]

Ahhh, that explains a lot. So this interaction is intended and won't change?

[placid plinth]

yes, that works

[tropic basin]

Hey Mike, mind sharing what triggers the vendor refresh?

[placid plinth]

nope but I don't know so I'm gonna guess, time?

[bronze sleet]

Hey Mike, is there a known issue with some people getting disconnected when transitioning between zones but only when playing with others?

[placid plinth]

yes

[acoustic flame]

Hey Mike, is there a known issue with dungeons being bugged? Lost 2 keys to Arbors boss door straight up not opening, and 2 to being in a party with a friend haha

[bronze sleet]

Cool, thanks. Didn't want to pointlessly make a report if it's known

[final cave]

Hi Mike. Hope you've had some time to yourself and fam this weekend 🙂

What's EHGs current position on increased enemy damage output for coop play?

[tawdry bison]

are the devs aware of extreme lag in parties? lag spikes that last for sometimes minutes in parties of 2-4 with complete loss of character, but latency not being representative of the graph at the bottom of the screen

Is global chat separate for hc and sc or do they share the same chat? If they share the chat is LFG channel hc only?

[placid plinth]

yes

[craggy kiln]

How rare is Rune of Creation?

[placid plinth]

Extremely. They don't even start to drop until pretty late in the endgame.

[craggy kiln]

Is it similar rarity to PoE's Mirror?

[placid plinth]

no, less

[fossil dune]

Joke's on you, I got one at level 15

[placid plinth]

pics or it didn't happen

(there might be a bug for all I know)

[solemn mica]

is it a known issue to lose basically everything after the migration?

[fossil dune]

Highest level is a Druid at sub-50, got it while leveling an Acolyte

[empty otter]

Will agree, just hit 51 on primalist, got my rune of Creation at like 20~ https://i.imgur.com/rZ3Cc4t.png

havent seen one since

[acoustic flame]

How rare are the items that allow you to transfer items not gotten in a party to another player you've partied with a lot? (sorry, oddly worded but point should be there lmao)

[placid plinth]

no, migration didn't cause that, there is a bug with the 0.8.5f -> 0.9 conversion. some items can become corrupted and it causes either stashes or characters to not load properly. I think the files are still there, just not loading in game. Both share a save file location.

[placid plinth]

wow, grats

[placid plinth]

infinitely rare because they aren't in the game yet

[solemn mica]

so what would i do to remedy this? cause i have literally nothing now

[wooden bridge]

Overgrown Alcove something thats to be continued?👀

[placid plinth]

I'm sorry, I can't help you with it from here. I don't know if #support can help or not but that's where I would start.

[empty otter]

Its a beta? Get ready for wipes? Ive played for years and lost every character and item i've ever found 😹

[placid plinth]

there are unfinished and secret areas in the game

[pine dome]

Hi Mike, in forge strike does the base crit from singular craft applied to the sub skill detonating ground?

[wooden bridge]

Figured it was secret, but couldn’t see a purpose so assuming it’s also unfinished

[fossil dune]

Where's the secret area that's just a shrine to bees?

[placid plinth]

yes

[mortal forum]

this may have been answered somewhere, but when Trade/SSF Factions are implemented, will that be a fresh season / league / cycle or whatever?

[bleak jolt]

are the supporter packs gone?

[placid plinth]

undecided if we will start a new cycle when that happens, it will get added the the whole game all at once regardless though

[rigid cedar]

Two more questions, if that's not too much 😄
Static has node Overload, which makes it cast Zaps. There also nodes that improve those Zaps in Static's tree, including conversion from Zaps to Lightning Blasts

1. If I'm converting Zaps to Lightning Blasts, does the Lightning Blast tree get applied?
2. If I'm converting Zaps to Lightning Blasts, do the other nodes that apply to Zap from Static's tree get applied as well (such as +targets, +base crit)?
   Haven't found info about it in the tooltips :/

[solemn mica]

ty sir, put in a ticket

[placid plinth]

temporarily unavailable

[placid plinth]

all of those files are stored offline on your computer so they will just be able to help you with your own troubleshooting by the way

[placid plinth]

yes
yes

[sweet cape]

Sorry this must've been asked before but couldn't seem to find anything with a quick search. Is there a reason you've chosen to exlude shards and glyphs from autopickup? (And aoutostash)

[visual grove]

Wondering; Checked for bug reports on it but nothing, sometimes while in an Echo it causes my internet to dc. If the echo makes me dc, all future attempts on that echo will also dc but I can choose another path after the fact. edit; point me in the right direction if this isnt the spot

[craggy kiln]

Can runes of ascendancy spawn uniques with LP?

[mild oyster]

yes @craggy kiln

[placid plinth]

I've had to answer this so many hundreds of times at this point that I'm sorry you're gonna get the real short version.

They are items and we treat them as such. We have added a few features to help with their quicker picking up and organization through the vacuum and crafting inventory. Since doing that, they have started to feel less and less like items. It's in an odd half way point at the moment. We still want them to feel like items but have unfortunately added too many easy of use features to make them not feel like items any more.

[rigid cedar]

Would the node Arcing Power (the one that raises maximum chains and gives chains on self-cast) from the Lightning Blast tree work?

[devout topaz]

I would like to know if devs have compiled a list of known bugs so I don't submit a report for an already known bug

[placid plinth]

I'd have to see the nodes, maybe but the fact you said "on self-cast" makes me think no.

[junior star]

known bugs are not completely characterized bugs, every dev always wants more reports to isolate all the conditions as much as possible

[placid plinth]

No, please submit the bug report.

[pure thicket]

When characters die, they go to hardcore solo but it's like offline softcore - is this intentional or is this a bug to be reported?

[quasi lark]

its always easier to smile and say "oh we fixed it" then missing it 🙂

[placid plinth]

Duplicate reports are useful because it helps us to see if it's something that many people are encountering. Also it might not even be a bug but that's ok because it lets us know that players are expecting something else to happen.

[placid plinth]

!bug

[fiery lily]

Please post bug reports on our forum: https://forum.lastepoch.com/c/bug-reports. Thanks!

[pure thicket]

is this confirming it's a bug? I am genuinely not sure if it's intended or not 😛

[sweet cape]

Okay thanks, sorry for making hou repeat yourself 😅 why is it so important to have them as items though? I mean if youre halfway to either side maybe chose one and stick with it ? Hopefully the easy on the clicking side 🤞

[placid plinth]

General note to everyone here:

If you suspect that it might be a bug or you're wondering if it's intentional. Please just make a bug report.

[placid plinth]

it's very much a bug

[pure thicket]

Okay good to know! Is the intention to go to Softcore? And if LE ever has 'leagues' will it continue to work that way, or will it shift to PoE's 'standard' graveyard

Thank you for the response 😄

[placid plinth]

We don't actually have that many things to pick up most of the time. If shards were auto resources, you could go for a long time without picking up more than 0-2 items per echo. Never finding anything worth picking up feels kinda bad to me.

[placid plinth]

HC -> SC is the plan

[pure thicket]

Good to know - great change compared to the other games on the market; helped me convince some friends to give hardcore a spin. Will there ever be an option to migrate your shared stash from HC -> SC or TBD?

[placid plinth]

no

well, technically you could just make a HC character, load up on stuff and die

[pure thicket]

Yeah that's what I thought of for them but with HC characters bricking on death it sounds like we're just sticking to HC 😛

Appreciate the responses - have been enjoying the game! 🙂

will there ever be an option to auto loot idols when you get a shrine for them and dont have time to just sit there and look through them all

[placid plinth]

ever is a long time but I would be shocked if that ever happens

you can filter idols also, so you don't have to look through all of them

Hey Mike, what do you think of the idea of pets picking up gold?

[balmy kayak]

Do all gambled items have low forge potential so its harder to craft a godly item if you get lucky on your gamble? Im wondering why the forge potential is always low, and why (or i havent found where) you cant gamble higher ilvl items

[placid plinth]

I'm not a huge fan of autopickup in general so there's that. Gold it makes sense to me because it never takes up any inventory space at any stage. Putting it on pets means that in order to play optimally you need to have a pet out and that's not for everyone (I do play with one anyways so that doesn't affect me personally.)

[placid plinth]

I'm sorry, I can't help with support issues here.

[placid plinth]

yes gambling is designed as a stopgap for leveling mostly

[vapid mirage]

Interesting, I guess you could add it to a shrine effect. Maybe along side the increased movement speed and stuff?

[astral reef]

How much faster skill gets exp after i respec points out of it? Like i respeced 3 points from bone golem

[placid plinth]

It is based on the ability level and your current level. It will say if it is gaining at an increased rate or not. It also gains faster as you level up in general. I don't have the numbers handy.

[astral reef]

Right, thanks

sad but okay, it's much more important for things to work well. I don't have that much time to play now anyway, heh. Looking forward to it:D

[craggy kiln]

Maybe you should pin that message then?

[astral reef]

Is masochist mode coming anytime soon?

[placid plinth]

In theory, that's a great ideal, however nobody looks at pinned messages. I was just hoping to stem the tide of the "several people typing..." that I was seeing right then. It vanished pretty quick.

[placid plinth]

unsure. not 0.9

[astral reef]

thought so

[solemn mica]

@placid plinth you da bomb, was able to find the files by digging up my old comp

[bleak jolt]

if i bought a pack way back when game first came out, am I able to upgrade to a new pack or have to purchase it straight out?

[daring ingot]

is there a road map for 2023, I was just curious about the subclasses warlock falconer and rune master

[cunning storm]

Devs are you going to fix the god damn Unity crash since 0.9 https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/unity-crash-when-after-0-9-when-trying-online-play/52526 I haven't been able to play all weekend

[placid plinth]

I don't know if we do old pack upgrades or not. It would probably convert all over to the new pack and you'd lose all the old stuff if we did. That's a question for #support

[placid plinth]

no official roadmap. I can give you the highlights though

Item Factions
3 remaining masteries (specifically at 1.0)
other stuff

[fossil dune]

Other stuff is my favorite

[valid matrix]

#otherstuffhype

[spark hound]

HOOOOLY. Other stuff leaked here.

[placid plinth]

I'm sorry but I can't help with support requests here. I don't have any more details about what will be fixed or when other than the information in #news

[daring ingot]

sick, other stuff really has my interest peeeeaaakkked lol

[zinc turtle]

@placid plinth bro am i doing something wrong? I am EU West 40 ms but i cant pass a single map without mobs being immortal at 0 HP and i cant use spells anymore

[placid plinth]

no idea, sorry

[valid matrix]

!bug

[fiery lily]

To make sure a bug gets fixed, please post about it here: https://forum.lastepoch.com/c/bug-reports.

[astral reef]

restarting game/steam helps to many of those kind of problems. could also verify files on steam

[prisma pecan]

how do i see the lfg channel? its not showing up for me anymore

[placid plinth]

there is a bug with chat that causes them to vanish sometimes

[prisma pecan]

just restart then?

[placid plinth]

maybe? I'm sorry I don't know

[placid plinth]

Looks like questions are back on the menu!

[fossil dune]

Welcome back, Mike

[last dragon]

Did a hotfix drop that causes autogrouping? When entering the game I spawned into a zone with 2 other players.

[placid plinth]

nope, that's a bug

[last dragon]

@placid plinth very whacky, thanks

[gentle wraith]

did you fix the problem with HC characters going to SC "Deathless solo challenge"? because i just lost my character

[cloud glade]

hi! asked in another thread earlier but would like to ask someone from EHG as well. Really looking forward to importing my characters through some API to build a planner around it, is there any plans for it?

[placid plinth]

not yet

[placid plinth]

nothing concrete yet

[gentle wraith]

will the solution be deleting character or keep it with the progress and items?

[umbral jungle]

Do the bees from keeper's gloves benefit from the toxic coating hive mind allows you to apply to bees? I'm assuming yes, but want to make sure it isnt hive mind bees only for some reason

[muted prism]

Have you guys ever considered adding an option to hide certain elements of gear, like hats, weapons etc.?
If no then would it be worth to make a suggestion about that?

[amber plover]

Not sure if this is the place to ask but my npc isn't showing to hand in my quest and i've been stuck to progress for 30 mins what i do?

[placid plinth]

it's unclear yet how previously affected characters will be handled

[placid plinth]

should work with any bee

[umbral jungle]

perfect, so should be able to scale it using both

[hybrid nacelle]

Have you been working through the weekend or did you Devs manage to rest now that it seems stable enough to play?

[umbral jungle]

ty mike you da man

[placid plinth]

yes, and #suggestions-and-like-to-see are always welcome

[umbral jungle]

that answers the bladedancer vs marksman question

[harsh bane]

For the upcoming resonance system we will be able to gift the item to our friend even if they are offline?

[placid plinth]

most of us have maintained normal weekday hours through this. some of us have been in on the weekend but that was mostly planned in case of problems

[eternal radish]

Unique bows with +bow phys damage affixes didn't have them adjusted to +bow damage, is this intentional or an oversight? (for example longshot)

[placid plinth]

no. the mechanics of the gifting process are not changed by resonances. It just adds a new name to the list

[hybrid nacelle]

Ok I was worrying a bit about that. Good to hear.

[mystic burrow]

When will Masochist be enabled for online? This is my favorite way to play LE

[viral spruce]

is there a reason rive doesnt have void conversion anymore? its kinda weird with all those new void/echoes related nodes the skill doesnt get conversion anymore specially considering this patch we got the adaptive melee dmg and the cool on death effects depending on the skill dmg feels weird removing it

[placid plinth]

as far as I know longshot is an Imperial Bow which how gives +24 Bow damage, not bow physical damage.

affixes can still have elements associated with them, the primary change was to almost all implicits, not affixes

[placid plinth]

no eta

[south cedar]

Hey Mike! I was wondering if you could or if there was a way I could shoot a congrats to the team. There's a lot of little animation qualities and unit changes that have really added a lot like the maddened grole, to the new map changes that have really helped improve the early game pacing of the game. I wanted to be sure they know how appreciated their hard work is and that it's appreciated

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure exactly why, if I were to take a guess, I'd guess that it was probably causing some sort of problem

[lament musk]

You've made a global town hub? And no news? I've just saw 2 ppl in the end of time.

[west arch]

Yeah I saw Peter 7 in town I was like :O

[placid plinth]

thank you very much 🙂 the #368968647114227723 channel gets checked over by several people looking for different things but one of them is nice stuff people had to say about various things to share in our Monday group meetings so that's a great place to put something like that. (here is fine too)

[placid plinth]

lol, I think it's a bug

that will be a town hub so maybe someone turned it on

[wooden bridge]

Difference between Increased Health Regen and Increased Healing Effectiveness and what they both affect?

[south cedar]

Oh good! I know it's been an intense patch so I wanted make sure the appreciation wasn't lost in the flood

[static vale]

Healing effectiveness increases the amount of healing you get from healing skills or spells (not leech, regen or life on hit)

health regen increases the flat health regen you get every second

[wooden bridge]

Is there anything that affects Leech. Life on Hit, and anything else of the sort

[static vale]

Leech is affected by 1-2 leech stats (leech rate & increased leech)

[amber plover]

My quest npc isn't showing how do i fix this? been stuck here for 30+ mins

[static vale]

life on hit is only affected by hit speed

[placid plinth]

I've seen restarts help with this. You can also force the zone to "refresh" by joining someone else's party and going to their version of the zone.

[fossil dune]

Mike this one's simple, how exactly does increased duration of bleed (and other damaging ailments) function?

[placid plinth]

it makes them last longer?

[static vale]

It does

it keeps the damage per sec the same but extends the duration

[amber plover]

oh ok i will try this, will need to make a friend ingame though

[fossil dune]

Sorry, let me rephrase, how does it impact the damage, if at all

[static vale]

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

[fossil dune]

Okay, thank you Llama.

[placid plinth]

#👥┃lfg

[bronze vault]

Hi Mike! Any news on the bug that makes some SA players connect to NA servers?

[static vale]

Same dps, increased damage. The effects that double the speed do the opposite, increased dps, same damage

[placid plinth]

oh, yea, sorry I get it, that's right

[placid plinth]

not yet sorry

there are SA servers ready to go, like they always have been

[desert imp]

but the thing is, the tooltip says "the damage bleed deals over it's 3 second duration." If you just increase duration, naturally one would assume the damage is the same over the longer duration. Here you are saying dmg per sec is intrinsically implemented?

[hasty moat]

Hi question on mechanic Mike if you happen to know - i'm using the talent Mutilate, which consumes bleed stacks to deal their damage instantly. Does that mean i can scale how much damage that consumption deals by increasing my damage over time, or is that damage over time wasted and the mutilate is instantly dealing damage based on base bleed damage?

[knotty perch]

Any timeline for the return of Account Services on the website? Kickstarter Elder backer trying to link my account to my SteamID...

[static vale]

Nope, I tested it, you just get more ticks for the same damage if you extend the duration.

[bronze vault]

One of my friends who plays connect to SA but me and other friend always connect to NA for some reason. We are all getting a bit tired of using the SA connected friend as a anchor for better ping lol/

[gilded harness]

Hi, quick question for the loot filter, am I missing something or it's not possible to have two rules that would match and apply style to them? It's first match = exit and stop processing further?

[velvet prawn]

Hey Mike! Any chance we will see an update to lagons hitbox in the near future as many skills still have the issue of simply not hitting him (e.g. surge, static, smite to just name a few ontop of my head) and thus making this fight an absolute nightmare 😄

[desert imp]

ok thanks, so I guess bleed dmg per sec is total bleed damage/total duration in seconds.

[static vale]

It takes the remaining damage for the bleeds on the target (however much that is) & deals it instantly

[placid plinth]

increasing dot damage will increase the damage from mutilate. It's looking at the actual dot and adding all the damage it would do if it were able to continue, and doing it immediately.

[static vale]

So anything that increases the total damage the bleed would do is accounted for.

[static vale]

Yes

[hasty moat]

thanks for the confirmation guys ... seems like damage over time is really important for me then

[smoky kettle]

is there a translation planned for french/spanish/german?

[static vale]

Yes

And probably other languages, depending on what they choose to translate it into

[dull dune]

Where does the harbinger of stars belt drop? I found a wiki tool saying it is the Fall of Empire monolith. I've ran about 200 echos target farming Unique and Set belt echos.

My buddy while I was away just got it in the Spirits of Fire monolith as a random drop. Anyway I could get some info on this item?

[fossil dune]

It is not ONLY there, that's just where you target farm it

[dull dune]

Thank you for confirming.

Would you say its super rare drop?

[placid plinth]

it can drop in any zone equal or higher level than the item

it's very rare

[candid cosmos]

oh huh didn't realize that i've been leaving them on the ground

rip

[west arch]

is multishot not displaying a known bug or should I report it?

[candid cosmos]

hopefully i'll never want one

[placid plinth]

very might be a little high

[dull dune]

QQ don't say that days... i'm struggle bussing for this belt aha.

Thank you very much for confirming guys

[blazing crest]

For Shurikens, is Blade Shield intended to work with Ethereal Blades ? I have 100% pierce but each shuriken seems to be lasting for 1 hit. Unsure if its a bug or intended.

[fossil dune]

It's listed as a 0% reroll, Mike

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure, could you report it either way?

!bug

[fiery lily]

Please post bug reports on our forum: https://forum.lastepoch.com/c/bug-reports. Thank you. :smile:

[placid plinth]

oh wow, ok it's not that rare

[placid plinth]

pretty sure that's intended, I think it might say that in one of those alt tooltips? maybe? been a while since I've tried to run something like that

[blazing crest]

Ah Im dumb, it is in the alt tooltip. thank you

[vapid fossil]

so running with MP group doing lightsarbor dungeon after killing the boss only ONE player gets access to the vault??? is that intended?

[dull dune]

I appreciate the responses and clarification.

Does increasing your corruption increase the chance of better drops from the end-echo rewards? Like when you open the shiny diamond

[hasty moat]

What is a physical spell?

[placid plinth]

right now it's designed that only 1 does it but everyone gets it I think. I think there are a couple bugs with that dungeon right now. We are also looking at options to split it if possible.

[wooden bridge]

check your skill tags

[hasty moat]

Thanks - i guess rogue has zero physical spells

[placid plinth]

you know, I'm not actually sure on that any more

corruptions increases the chance of uncovering rarer echo rewards including the timeline specific unique/set item rewards.

[charred stone]

Can tell you as someone in one of these Arbor dungeons I got one chest that didn't even have all the rewards from the doors and such.

[teal trail]

if i have these 2 what does the bears cooldown look like?
2seconds? 5seconds? 7 seconds from both combined?

[dull dune]

Thats a good enough answer for me. Appreciate you man.

[rustic lance]

Any chance we could get a chart that shows what the lists of characters made are for online? I'm curious what the most chosen class and least chosen one is!

[placid plinth]

70% sure it's 5s

[teal trail]

also can the bear gain aspect of the panther from the swipe specialization tree if it uses swipe?

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure what sort of stats like that we have ready to go or can get if we want. I think that would be cool to have though. Maybe.

[opaque falcon]

Is there any chance of the traveller's backpack coming back? I just found out about this amazing game browsing the Grim Dawn reddit and missed it by 1 day. Feels bad 😦

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure at all if we can do that or not

[velvet prawn]

Hey Mike! Any chance we will see an update to lagons hitbox in the near future as many skills still have the issue of simply not hitting him (e.g. surge, static, smite to just name a few ontop of my head) and thus making this fight an absolute nightmare 😄

[placid plinth]

yes, sorry had to go open it up to look

[dull dune]

I know this is only semi-helpful. With smite if you put it more towards the top of your screen I found you can hit Lagon just fine. Took me a bit to figure it out.

[trim turret]

I'm so sorry for the abuse of this channel, but I've reproduced a data loss issue that's actively overwriting peoples' offline saves and am trying to bring attention to devs ASAP. I understand if you need to be strict and ban me for this but just desperate to avoid anyone else losing characters to it

[remote nexus]

hey mike.
is it intentional that when i take the
deadly aim node in shuriken that the shuriken thrown by shift with the sleight of hand node dont get thrown at a nearby target instead only infront of your character?

[placid plinth]

yea I think I just saw a huge reddit post on this, same thing?

[trim turret]

Yeah that's me, thank you so much, just wanted to check if devs had seen

I won't derail the channel any more

[placid plinth]

yes, that's intended

[woven vine]

Will there be a character creator (simple one, ie hair, hair color) option in the future? In 1.0 maybe?

[remote nexus]

okay thank you
but its sad so the node is useless for me 😦

[placid plinth]

not by 1.0
it is possible after that though

goes really well with chakrams though if you haven't tried that combo

[woven vine]

Awesome! Thanks for the reply.

[hasty moat]

does armor shred have a cap?

[dull dune]

Hey Mike, Final unique question. Can any unique be made with a rune of ascendance?

[hot forge]

are there plans to make the passive point respeccing less tedious? Right now if you wanna swap points within a certain "bracket" you need to either have a passive point available to put in and then take one out constantly or just spec the whole way down.

This is especially annoying when you just wanna swap some base spec points

[opaque falcon]

I would think maybe before 1.0 hits, but probably not anytime after that. At least it wasn't a founders exclusive.

[placid plinth]

no
here is a good site to look that up on: https://www.lastepochtools.com/ailments/armour_shred

[hasty moat]

Love his tools, i've bought him several coffees

used it for grim dawn, lol. THanks mike

[placid plinth]

no, boss only drops only drop from bosses

[placid plinth]

not at the moment. little trick is to take a top level point out to use as the "swap" so you can move points easier. I know it's not what you're asking for.

[hot forge]

ah thats also a good idea, did not think about that.
Thanks for the answer, I am hopeful sometime down the line there are some changes but for now this will do

[velvet prawn]

yeah have done this in the past with smite, but with surge/static u simply cannot hit making this fight 10min+ for me as i can only dmg him with mana strike and spark charges using the new unique offhand. but yeah would still love to know if something is planned for the near future to adress that issue with his (lagons) hitbox 😄

[brave wasp]

Question about bone golem - any converted golem (pyre, deathchill, blood) doesnt use boneshatter anymore, is that intended behaviour or bug?

[balmy kayak]

If I pick the node Plasma Ball for fireball (Converts half the damage from fire to lightning) and also have the gloves Liath's Machinations (50% of Fireball Base Damage Converted to Lightning) will fireball now do 100% lightning damage?

[open compass]

I'd like to ask 3 question regarding the Loot Filter possible improvements. 1.: Are there any plan to add the option (like a checkbox or more detailed setting) to show specified looted items on the map/minimap too, maybe included with a sound notification? It would help greatly when you kill stuff out of a screen. 2.: Are there any plan to add the loot filter coloring to be showed in the inventory too in some way? Like keep the text recolor/resize/underscore in the item tooltip when hovered. It's really annoying that I have to throw out everything at the chest to see which of my filter was the reason to pick that item. 3.: Are there any plan to add filters to chest tabs and adding an "autosort" feature to put everything in their place (or maybe do it like PoE where you can make a "dump" tab which it can sort item away to their places if it finds a spot)? These 3 would greatly help the already nice loot filter functionalities to make it streamlined between maps, ofc I understand that these would be most likely low priority features, I'm just interested if there is any plan to extend on something like these in the future.

[tall fulcrum]

is it normal for multiplayer loading screens to take that long ?

And dose rouges Flurry has an atk speed cap for bow use on channeling ?

[cyan oak]

Is the bear and saber tooth companion models in this update?

[ruby rose]

Yes

[placid plinth]

not yet

[placid plinth]

no and I don't think so

[placid plinth]

we do have plans to expand the loot filter, details of what that's going to look like are still unavailable

[placid plinth]

yes

[placid plinth]

not sure, if in doubt, report it

Please post bug reports on our forum: https://forum.lastepoch.com/c/bug-reports. Thanks!

[languid pond]

Hello, question, in ingame help menu, for freezing, its writen that it scales of enemy max hp and ward. Is that before or after multiplayer multiplier ?

[placid plinth]

doesn't really matter because it's multiplicative right?

I'm sorry, the kid is waking up from a nap, gotta run.

I'm back to Dad mode. I'll be back on again later this weekend and probably will be back to a more normal state of this channel in the coming week.

Just while we're so busy, while I'm gone, this thread will remain LOCKED.

[placid plinth]

At first I was afraid, I was petrified

Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side

[candid cosmos]

excellent song choice

[potent laurel]

wb Mike!
Also today after Steel rip we was wandering if Emperor of Corpses arena is smaller now because it seems this way

[placid plinth]

I don't think it's been changed at all.

[potent laurel]

we was watching old vods and current one

[candid cosmos]

when i did emperor of corpse it felt less like the arena was smaller and more like the hitbox on the big aoe wasn’t lining up with the telegraphed zone the way it used to

i just attributed it to lag though

[junior star]

are you happy with the state of the Lagon fight?

[merry tusk]

Curious about the Fireball Node "Plasma Ball" combining with Liath's Machinations to make Fireball pure lightning, is it intentional that it's respective fire based nodes such as fire resist shred are not converted to lightning shred etc? Seems like it a fun build to pair with the lightning meteor set as well but the dps seems lackluster at a glance compared to lighting blast

[placid plinth]

Am I happy with the hypothetical state of the Lagon fight if it didn't have the obvious and pervasive bugs? yes, very.

[placid plinth]

that sounds like an oversight

[daring shell]

Hello, please could you plan insert the MP on the LE Launcher?

[junior star]

I think even if it weren't bugged, and it is deeply bugged, it would be a boring fight, and that you've designed better. As it is, leaving a progression mandated fight (multiple times even!) that can not even be done with a variety of skills people build around in seems like a poor decision.

we've all seen 10 iterations of platform boss that swipes left right and slams mid

[placid plinth]

sorry, Last Epoch multiplayer is only available on Steam for now.

[daring shell]

That was not my question

Do you plan to insert the MP on the launcher in the future ?

[placid plinth]

I can't give you a hard answer because I don't know for certain but it is not likely.

I can say that it won't be in for 1.0 for sure

[placid plinth]

thanks for the #368968647114227723

[daring shell]

Ok, if it's not likely maybe you should remove the Launcher download on the website then

Thanks for your answer

[placid plinth]

It should be removed already, if not, that's a bug

[daring shell]

Cant check at the moment

[placid plinth]

(it's been removed)

[daring shell]

Sad news, we are prisoners of Steam forever now

[keen badger]

well steam is a good jailor

so why not

[mystic musk]

Is there a particular design reason for not having affix shards be filterable, or is it simply something not a lot of people ask for?

[placid plinth]

affix shards are sitting in this very strange place between item and resource and I'm not quite sure what we will do with them. They eventually don't take up any inventory space so they are eventually a resource that you will want to pick up regardless. I know some become less useful over time but we have plans for a system which will allow you to exchange them at some sort of loss ratio so if we put that loot filter option in now, we will eventually probably not need it any more because everyone will just go back to picking them all up anyways.

[mystic musk]

For me it's more about highlighting certain shards that I want to be sure to pick up - it can be pretty easy for me to mentally gloss over a shard that's valuable to me at that moment just because many shard drops are not immediately relevant (which I suppose is also accomplished by hiding irrelevant shards, but I'd rather emphasize important ones) that said I'm quite quickly veering into feedback territory so I'll move any further crystallized point there

[haughty geode]

will there be an option to diable the "auto aim" of skills? please say yes

[placid plinth]

I can't say I'm against the idea but I can't make any promises

I feel like you might have expected a positive leaning non-committal answer though.

[haughty geode]

not really

i hate it on a very simple level

so a simple answer works

haha

i can see its use for controler and so on, but it really ruined the combat for me. all the control nuances and aiming efficiencies dissapear

but this is more of feedback than quesiton haha

an option would be lovely ❤️

[languid pond]

well i wanted to make freeze 'support' build to multiplayer and if freezing mobs is 3x harder in 4 man party then i think i will drop the idea if the max hp in the equation scales with multiplayer modifier

[median aurora]

What was the reasoning behind forcing people to use steam other then a form of DRM. Like does steam offer support for games that you can’t get elsewhere ?

[placid plinth]

It's really not about the DRM, we can already enforce that to the level that we want for multiplayer through our account systems. We are actually lowering that by including a true offline mode soon.

It's actually about all the other amazing stuff that Steam brings to the table which saves us massive amounts of time and energy. Which in turn allows us to spend that time on making the actual game better. We are also not spending even more time trying to replicate those features double up on a stand alone launcher at the same time now.

We know Steam is a deal breaker for some players and that's really unfortunate. I wish we could offer them an alternative but sometimes we have to make tough calls on what goes in.

[acoustic flame]

Is Heorot broken for the Reign of Winter drop? friend and I have killed him 12 times and both only got the helmet.

[fossil dune]

Not broken, many people have posted

[median aurora]

I don’t get how people can say it’s a dealbreaker when you need 50000 different clients nowadays to play games I was just curious as I’ve seen a couple of games go steam only and it intrigued me

[rotund topaz]

Any way to get a save exported from online mode? Would be useful for importing into build planners.

[placid plinth]

not at the moment

[merry tusk]

thanks for the reply, hope to see it changed. enjoying this level of customization of skills

[languid pond]

is there a way to search in search fiield in stashtabs for combination fo stats? like regex searching for multiple stats

[placid plinth]

no, the search is still very basic. I thing that we will look to include a friendly version of a regex style feature set in the future. (we probably won't want to actually put regex in there)

[acoustic flame]

Hey Mike, will the patch on tuesday address the dungeon issues?

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure what exactly will make it in to the first one. We will be just pushing them out with whatever makes it in. I'm not up on the current status of most of them.

[acoustic flame]

Ahh I see, ok, good luck to the team, and thank y'all for the amazing time! 😄

[placid plinth]

🙂

[pine dome]

Hi Mike, I wanted to know what was the reasoning behind the change to the rive conversion? Or the fact that we cannot convert Rive tag any more

[short salmon]

Mike someone brought up the stash tab bug in another channel, is this on the radar soon for getting fixed? Multiplayer kinda makes it impossible for us to fix ourselves and I imagine it's going to pop up a bunch soon.

[tall geyser]

(if you need to fix having lost stash tabs from lsoing a category, you can make new categories and it'll give you those stash tabs back after a couple, but yeah phantom category still stays around, same bug as before)

[placid plinth]

I've got a longer answer above if you search rive from me. You can do from: in the search and it will auto fill with names.

Short version: I don't know

[pine dome]

OK thx

[placid plinth]

Not myself but someone else might be on it.

[acoustic atlas]

Trying to hunt for new armor and item, DB says try a level 70 zone even though the armor is 75 and it's base normal version is 71, does that mean it will not drop in normal version and I need to do empowered to try and find it?

[opal scarab]

Hey Mike, I'm been trying to get AOD to work with my build and I was wondering was it intended for the damage you take from your own poison to multiply off map mods?

It seems like "Mobs do increased X% damage" modifiers seem to multiply the damage I take

[placid plinth]

kinda, what it's telling you is the optimal timeline to farm that item type in. It doesn't account for normal vs empowered. If the item has a level requirement of 75, it won't drop until you're in a lvl 75+ zone. This doesn't mean that you need to wait until empowered to get it, rather you can still find it from any 75-90 normal monolith. The best chance will just be in the empowered version of that specific timeline.

[placid plinth]

the way that the do increased damage is you take increased damage, so yes.

[acoustic atlas]

Thank you

[opal scarab]

Thanks for the clarification, I tried a bunch of things to keep myself alive but once I hit 400% increased damage in map mods it seemed like my build fell apart

[acoustic atlas]

Having a issue where I go to empower the time lines ( beat all of them and it will not click or allow me to in the center where you empower them. ( solo offline)

[opal scarab]

Might be worth looking at that interaction for next patch, seemed kind of wonky and frustrating to play around

[placid plinth]

!bug

[fiery lily]

Please post bug reports on our forum: https://forum.lastepoch.com/c/bug-reports. Thanks!

[acoustic atlas]

Will I need to start over with another character to fix? Thank you

[placid plinth]

I don't know the status of that bug or how to fix it.

[acoustic atlas]

Thank you

[desert sapphire]

Could you guys feasibly do some backend sim feature for dps? Have a button to sim dps for your skill where it just calls backend process that spawns your character with a really fast gametime and spams the skill on a target dummy and averages the results of the damage events over a few minutes or something and then sends back that number? Queue + rate limit the requests too

[placid plinth]

We have no intentions of adding a system like that at the moment.

[velvet leaf]

Does Summon Spriggan have a healing aura? Or is it the ability - Rejuv Wind?
Cause I can't change any abilities on my bar while in Spriggan Form, so that means I can't use the Rejuv Wind.

[placid plinth]

You can't activate Summon Spriggan's healing spell while transformed. It is Rejuvenating Wind.

[lunar jetty]

@placid plinth I think I made a big mistake? I was sorting my stash tabs and accidentally deleted the one that had all of my idols. A TON of them. I cant seem to get them to show

Someone told me you shouldnt be able to delete a tab with items

Ill try to relog?

[placid plinth]

I'm sorry I can't help with support issues here. I would suggest starting by creating a new category.

[lunar jetty]

Okay...Its totally borked now. Its creating new categories that I cant interact with at all

[cedar sluice]

@placid plinth i just dropped a lvl 75 unique in a lvl 71-72 zone, is that normal?

[bright field]

Can i please ask is there plans to include all relevant stats for things like minion chance to ignite on the character sheet. It would be wonderful if took a node and were able to see it retroactively updated in the character sheet. For people who need things affirmed to know they work it prevents a lot of hassle and guess work in testing.
If there are no plans whom do i need to beg to get this changed 😛 ❤️ thanks for answering my question.

[placid plinth]

maybe

[placid plinth]

We do have plans to expand the character sheet information. I don't have any details as to what exactly will be available.

[cedar sluice]

i dropped a aaron's will as a unique item echo reward

so not a boss drop

could it be because revenant plate is a lvl 71 body, the chest piece can still drop?

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure why it was able to drop. I wouldn't have thought it could but I would clearly be wrong.

[lunar jetty]

I followed the support link in the next channel but it doesnt have a category for my broken stash. Can you direct me where to go?

[fossil dune]

And so we have successfully confused Mike

[placid plinth]

If you can't find a specific category, just pick general or bugs or something. It's not the end of the world if you pick the wrong one.

[lunar jetty]

Under bugs no general

[placid plinth]

contact, top right

[lunar jetty]

Thank you

[maiden brook]

hi, mechanics question here, do companion specific bonuses affect minions summoned by your companion?

[placid plinth]

No, your companions' minions are not your companions.

[maiden brook]

thanks

[bright field]

Is it intentional now that we refresh vendors by changing zones? and if so you should probably just add a refresh 500 gold cost to vendors as its tedious travelling to new places just for runes of shattering

[placid plinth]

No

[desert sapphire]

so what's the overunder on this desynch

[sly dirge]

are we still getting a patch tomorrow still so we can actually play with friends?

[placid plinth]

Not sure where Monday came from but I could have just missed that. All the info is available on this post. https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/0-9-launch-update-and-upcoming-hotfixes/52667

[gaunt comet]

Are you happy with number of active players in 0.9? Do they meet, fall below or exceed expectations 😀?

[jade merlin]

Lower ailment duration is better correct? Like, I'm making a meme build and want to confirm that the increased ignite duration on this unique should be rolled low not high

[placid plinth]

I always struggle with setting too low expectations for myself so I'd say, exceeded expectations for me but I can't speak for everyone.

[placid plinth]

sounds right? it kinda depends though, sometimes you want to be hitting ignited enemies and then it's really good to have it longer

[gaunt comet]

are you sure Mike? i was under the impression that 100% increased duration basically doubled the overall damage

[placid plinth]

no, I'm not sure, there is also an axe that reduces the duration as a positive thing but it might be worded very differently

[gaunt comet]

the axe reduces the duration by x2 but also doubles the damage

[jade merlin]

Cool, I'm combining this with the bleed to ignite gloves to make a ignite decoy build. Doesn't matter a lot either way because ignite is only 2.5 seconds a stack but the min-maxer in me wanted to know which was better if I got another relic to drop.

[gaunt comet]

i think increased duration is meant to be positive stat because it appears on many places

[placid plinth]

yes, it doesn't have the "less is better" button ticked

[jade merlin]

Oh, I found it. It was in the game guide but I missed it when I first looked (it's late)

[placid plinth]

(just about to leave for the night so get em in quick)

[bright field]

Sorry if this is in the game guide mike i missed this. Does Generic %increased minion damage increase the damage they do with ailments such as ignite?

[gaunt comet]

here is a good one - how do you manage to get any work done and answer so many questions at the same time 😄

[placid plinth]

yes, minions are just like players really. if you had increased damage, it would affect your ailments. the only difference is with minion stats, when you summon the minion, those stats become normal stats. So the minion gets increased damage.

[placid plinth]

the last few days I haven't got much work done because I've been so busy with the launch. Usually it's much much much slower in here and I answer a handful of questions a day.

I'm heading out for the night. Just while we're so busy, while I'm gone, this thread will remain LOCKED.

I think we will go back to normal generally open status in this channel starting tomorrow.

OPEN THE FLOODGATES

Hello Mike, I actually have a question. So I have been having a lot of conversations about high corruption farming recently. Currently there are a lot of modifiers that become very large after 500+ corruption, leading to very inconsistent gameplay, like the void enemies deal x% damage. I was wondering what are your guys's thoughts on high corruption gameplay as a part of the game? Is it something you guys are going to support in the future or is it more of a hands off approach? Thank you for any response, much love. ❤️

[placid plinth]

good? I feel like the problem sounds like some mods aren't scaling hard enough. Like there needs to be some point where it gets too hard right?

[meager cedar]

may i ask crafting questions here?

[placid plinth]

yes

[meager cedar]

cool

ok I guess its an easy one. Mana leech affix? yay or nay?

[tropic basin]

Hello Mike. Curious if this node works similar to endurance in that if a hit happens when you are above the limit, it still affects the portion of damage that is under.

[hybrid nacelle]

Hi. I was wondering if there are any plans to expand Lootfilter funcionality to for example support more variety in colour or size of the highlight.

[placid plinth]

We have no plans to make a mana leech affix at this time.

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure. Generally effects like that should but there is something nagging at me that this one is unique for some reason. I was playing that on stream a few months back and I think it came up for some reason.

[placid plinth]

We do have plans to expand the loot filter. Details of what that looks like is still undecided. Changing the size is extremely unlikely to happen.

[remote sorrel]

Mike, do you think it would be possible to implement like the lootfilter functionality to the search function? like u can select specific affixes, quality... to filter the search (its more like a "can that be done")

[hybrid nacelle]

Ok. Thank you for answering.

[placid plinth]

it could be done

[keen roost]

any news on the hotfixes you mentioned before closing the channel? 🙂

[fickle perch]

Hello Mike,

Maybe it's because I'm not a native speaker, but the wording around legendary potential feels very weird to me.

The quantity of legendary potential that a unique item drops with is only influenced by the level of the zone which it drops in.

The amount of Legendary Potential that a unique item will generally drop with is relative to the item's base power.

What difference do you make between quantity and amount of legendary potential ? What is tied to the item and what is tied to the zone ?

Can we have a rule of thumb to approximate how likely we are to get a specific item with a specific number of legendary potential ?

[placid plinth]

we're working on them

[lament musk]

Do monolith mods "Enemies have X% endurance" stack? or only the best value works?

[fickle needle]

Is south america server down or unstable? I'm trying to log in and getting stuck at the loading screen

[placid plinth]

Each unique item has a hidden stat called "effective legendary potential level". Generally, this is equal to the level requirement. This determines how likely each unique is to have legendary potential relative to each other unique item.

Generally, lower level unique items get more legendary potential. Some unique items which scale their power very well, have a lower chance of getting legendary potential.

The level of a zone being higher makes all unique items drop with more legendary potential.

[placid plinth]

yes it can stack

[placid plinth]

no, it's up

[fleet quiver]

Hi Mike, will there be any "creative" mode with infinite resources to create/test the builds?

[opal sleet]

does corruption improve lp or just quant of legs

[fickle needle]

when I'm clicking "enter game" at the character screen it goes to an infinite loading

[low peak]

Does spell damage on wands/scepters affect minions?

[low peak]

It is actually quite slow for me too (Brazil)

[placid plinth]

no plans for it

[placid plinth]

quantity of unique items only

[upbeat glade]

no plans for API too?

[placid plinth]

I'm sorry, I can't help with bugs or support requests

[placid plinth]

we don't have any details on that yet

[remote sorrel]

Thats interesting, do u think its an interesting feature that could be implemented in the future?

[placid plinth]

maybe, not prepared to make any suggestions that it will be done

[fickle needle]

It's because I'm watching a stream and a lot of people in chat are complaining too, I don't think it's a normal bug

[remote sorrel]

haha okok I got it, thanks Mike!

[fickle needle]

Thanks!

[coarse stratus]

Sorry if this has already been asked, but any plans to put an actual Matchmaking system in the game? Or LFG chat and discord all for now?

[hasty moat]

Does hammer throw scale with weapon damage at all?

[zealous dome]

For my own clarification, the armor shred on forge strike hits, does that extend to forged weapons or only the initial forge strike hammer drop?

[placid plinth]

yes

[coarse stratus]

Yes to whic?

[lament musk]

Is exalted item - technically - a rare item with better tier?

[opal sleet]

group play kinda feels punishing right now, is it intended that way?

[placid plinth]

You can see what stats a skill scales with by looking at the tags. Hammer Throw has throwing and not melee tag. Melee damage does nothing for it. Throwing damage does.

[inner dirge]

it has at least 1 affix higher than tier 5 as far as i know

[placid plinth]

yes to both, we have plans to add one and lfg chat and discord are all that's available for now

[placid plinth]

node in the forge strike tree only apply to forge strike unless otherwise stated

[placid plinth]

yes

[woven vine]

Will the game be on sale during the upcoming Steam Sale (in few days). It would be great, since the MP is now out and sales would be good. No?

[placid plinth]

I don't know, I don't think so

[lament musk]

So dropping exalted item with only one affix (total) - is a bug?

[brittle oxide]

does this affect monolith bosses like for example Lagoon? is he considered "rare enemy"?

[placid plinth]

good point, no, I guess it's not technically always a rare item

[woven vine]

Oh well... Thanks for the reply.

[placid plinth]

no, boss

[brittle oxide]

so thats for sure that he will not have +60% life right?

[humble mist]

Hello there, what's the rules in term of XP penalty depending of the larea mob level now that multiplayer is up ?

Hey Mike,
a little random one from me.
How fun is it to see some of the less negative bugs (bear face // random Partygrouping aka Blinddating) and actually finding out what part in your code caused it?
Also any chance bear face will remain in some form or way? Maybe as a pet?

[placid plinth]

yes

[strange tusk]

Thanks.

[placid plinth]

It's a little frustrating, especially when they are things that you know have happened, were fixed and have somehow regressed. It is cute, might have to do something to commemorate this. backpack v2

[strange tusk]

Why not introduce a cycle mechanic revolving around this "blind dating"? 🙂

[low peak]

Does spell damage on wands/scepters affect minions?

[compact helm]

You have some plans to bring back ability share build profiles? Now, when saves are stored on the server, we cannot import save and get build on lastepochtools.com, for example. Something similar planned in the future to fix this problem?

[torn hawk]

I have another question! My friend who plays with me. Get chat restricted by saying ''Kako si?'' that means : ''How are you?'' on Serbian-Croatian, and now she can't type in game... and also she have health issue can't talk at all... she already post the problem but noone respond yet

[placid plinth]

[placid plinth]

only minion stats affect minions

[placid plinth]

low priority at the moment so we haven't talked about it

[placid plinth]

Please contact #support

[inner dirge]

its not a bug its a feature!
Thanks for your work on the game and in this Channel Mike, im having a Blast btw.
So back to leveling my 2nd Char 👋

[compact helm]

Very sad to hear that. We have this function and previous patches and it was so convenient. Now we not have and this is in low priority. 🥲

[placid plinth]

People are still experiencing game breaking bugs, a missing convenience is very low priority compared to things which prevent people from playing.

[austere bridge]

Is it intended to point my quest to the last ruin this early in the monolith progression?

[opal sleet]

@placid plinth If i get 150% chanche to apply time rot do i apply 2 stacks 50% of the time or is it capped?

[placid plinth]

no

[compact helm]

Ahh, I'm sorry, it's my bad. I did not understand what low priority means in this context. You right.

[soft scroll]

How is the dash/tp programmed?, using a waypoint algorithm to check for time to reach or something like that? it feels that way

[placid plinth]

yes

[placid plinth]

I can't get into the details, it's not like that

[strange tusk]

Mike, I left a #suggestions-and-like-to-see about the "blind date" bug commemorating.

[hoary frigate]

same skill - Tornado. When hover the mouse over Charged Storm node i see a tooltip showing Lightning scale from Attunement but if I hover over adjusent node Frequent Lightning or Overcast skies the dps tooltip is different .no attunement scaling shown and lower DPS. how come?

[soft scroll]

okay, one more question, is there a folder with cache or something we can put on ramdisk to help load times or I/O?

[sage copper]

This might be a stupid question, but if I die in HC, am I in SC or a league of its own? it's a little confusing

[austere bridge]

do you know if there is a way to set it back to the normal quest progress? I tried resetting the game but its still stuck.

[placid plinth]

load times are because of the servers, you're waiting for them for sure if you have any ssd

[placid plinth]

bug, trying to work on that now

[placid plinth]

sorry, no idea

[tardy walrus]

where can I find the patch notes for 0.9b? Can only find 0.9

[opal sleet]

@placid plinth i have noticed that my resists can go down in the same way we lower the resists of monsters, is there a cap on how many stacks (shreds or other) they can get on us or can they f us equally as bad as we do to them?

[placid plinth]

those sub skill tooltips don't scale dps

[sage copper]

Fair enough, could you please tell me if it's sc or another league on it's own?

[placid plinth]

yes, check here https://www.lastepochtools.com/ailments/

[hoary frigate]

it is the same subskill Mike. Lightning on Tornado it s not two diffferent subskills

[placid plinth]

technically, you're in the right place, from what we can tell, it's just a display bug

[scenic cove]

Will Rive's 3rd strike have 45% more damage when hitting an ignited enemy with both this nodes specced? Or will it consume ignites before the hit?

[feral surge]

Hey Mike, how big is the boost from an experience shrine? Curious.

[placid plinth]

lightning is a sub skill

[opal sleet]

thx so same rules apply to players as to monsters

[placid plinth]

sorry, would have to go look and can't atm

[sage copper]

Is that place SC or another place entirely?

[placid plinth]

it does hit an ignited enemy

[sullen widget]

Hello, are the chat bans included in your hotfix tomorrow? STILL can't communicate in game. Perma chat banned for nothing. It's been days at this stage. I've been on the forums, I've asked in here, I've sent tickets with screenshots. What do I have to do to get some help? I'd love to chat with my friends, in game...in the multiplayer patch....Thank you.

[placid plinth]

sc

[placid plinth]

don't have details on that sorry

[hoary frigate]

but on the firsts screenshot you can see ATTUNEMENT scaling while on the second it s absent

[sage copper]

Thank you ❤️

[brittle oxide]

does this blessing also increase odds for random unique when it drop to be gloves?

[placid plinth]

they are technically different skills
attribute scaling doesn't apply directly to sub skills
when you use the initial skill, its attribute scaling gets applied as raw stats
nothing down stream of that calculates attribute scaling because it has already been done for the first one

[placid plinth]

I'm actually not sure. One thing I do know is that if it does, it doesn't also reduce the number of unique swords that drop for example

[brittle oxide]

could you by any chance ask internally someone who knows? that would be really good information, because for many people that would be defining on blessings choices

[safe scaffold]

hey! how a re you?
i have a question : does the icons of elements is a setting now? (about spells)

[hoary frigate]

ok thanks. I don't get it why they have the same name still . If they are two different skills their names 'd better differ

[placid plinth]

we do that a lot and most of the time nobody notices because we are very sneaky

[sullen widget]

[gaunt comet]

drop rate of exalted items seems to be quite high in 0.9 compared to before..

Is this some sort of bug, timed boost for MP launch or is this to be the new norm?

[kindred peak]

does fireball tooltip account for proj count when it has the node that allows it to hit enemy multiple times?

[placid plinth]

there were some changes made but I think something went wrong with it, we are unsure at the moment and are focusing on more pressing matters currently

[kindred peak]

i have the unique wand that adds +2 proj but i lose 10k dps compared to my rare wand

so i want to know if that's accurate

[placid plinth]

it should, it's more designed to compare gear which doesn't actually matter much for that one

[kindred peak]

what do you mean

[placid plinth]

it won't compare that stat accurately

that's probably the one stat it can't handle properly

[kindred peak]

yea its a common theme with shotgunning proj skills in arpgs

so its safe to assume the tooltip is for 1 proj?

i can do some napkin math to figure out if its better myself

[placid plinth]

not necessarily

I don't know

[warm zinc]

Hey Mike, does the class weighting for drops affect everything but Unique and Set items still? As in does it come into effect for Affix Shards and Idols?

[placid plinth]

it affects all those things

[safe scaffold]

before the 0.9 spells got a lil pics for witch elements they can change (fire / lightning / cold ect)

[warm zinc]

Oh, so class weighting affects Set and Unique now? Good to know.

[celest dragon]

hihi i was redirected here to ask questions. For monolith clearing I did the 58 > 66 > 80 > 85 > 90 to unlock empowered monoliths, so i'd assume you want to do empowered monoliths for new blessings. but the empowered monolith i have for the level 100 outcast doesnt let me kill the mono boss, is this intended?

am i really supposed to go back to the 58 zone and redo the rest or can i do the quest at the 100 monolith

[placid plinth]

sorry, no not unique and set, meant the affix shards and idols too, was trying to say, all the things they said which was not uniques and sets

I'm asking here also but i wrote i the feedback chat aswell. Dancing Strikes feels great if not that i have to spam the keybind because of the little cooldown. I'm fine with the cd itself. Just not a fan off the clickspam and gets tiring after a while. Any plan to change this? Like, continuous casting if i keep the keybind pressed.

[placid plinth]

nothing specific at the moment

Mike, can we expect idols to stop offering contradictory bonuses (as in buffing swords with one affix and bows with another) someday?

[placid plinth]

probably not but someday is a long time

Thanks a lot! Another question on the subject: do the bosses drop their respective uniques only past a certain difficulty? is there a min tier of arena for them to drop it?

ok ty

[thorny prairie]

is there a better spot to report a duping glitch, or just bug report?

[rigid cedar]

Currently, there is no way to gift your friend an item that you've dropped while he is not in the party, which makes stuff like crashes or disconnects more frustrating (as well as making solo progress feel a lot worse if you're mainly playing with a friend). When trade was announced, I saw a line or two about the system that lets you bypass that, because you'd be getting "orbs of friendship" while playing with a friend that you'd be able to use to gift them the item you've dropped while playing solo
Any chance that system of gifting will come before the trading release? Trading update is quite nice, but I would like to have that feature in particular ASAP because it feels like if you are intending to play in a party, then you can't ever leave that party if you want your gameplay to stay meaningful

[placid plinth]

due to the sensitive nature, please open a #support ticket (if you have consistent repro steps)

[thorny prairie]

will do!

and yea, i recorded a video and made it unlisted, ill link it in the ticket

[placid plinth]

as per the announcement, we will be attempting to include resonances sooner than item gifting if possible.

[flat drum]

just out of curiosity, what in this sentence was considered violent racist or extreme language so that the game chat decided to block it? :D

I guess, it's not that big of a deal..

Is it intended or not that once you spec homing on fireball in online that the skill goes from smooth to low FPS? At 144hz, the skill is smooth as butter. Once you spec into homing, the skill itself animates at like 15 fps, the rest of the game is smooth. I can create a bug report if it's not intended.

[placid plinth]

Please make bug reports regardless of if it is intended or not and without checking here first.

Any plans to fix character models? Rogue's waist is a bit too wide for a woman for example and some faces are a bit wonky. Also hoping for that KS promised GOG version after 1.0

Hey Mike !
I actually have very big fat issue with internet sync when i use spells wish spawn shadows (Synchronized stike and Shift of exemple) :
My PC goes from 40ms stable to 3000+ms, and i can't play anymore without a 10-30 sec freez (that kill me most of the times :')).
I've made a forum post about it, do you think this will be hotfixed soon pls ? I can't play atm

https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/0-9-first-we-launch-game-unplayable-for-non-hight-internet-players/53226

[placid plinth]

nothing specific I can share. Also would be shocked to see a source for a GoG version comment as we've never said that as far as I know. Regardless, we can't, GoG has rules that are incompatible and are missing some features we require.

[opaque falcon]

"We plan on having Last Epoch be available on both Steam and GOG."

Please avoid general comments or discussions in this channel. If you have a game related question for me, I'll be happy to answer it.

We have no plans to release on GoG right now.

We are planning to add a proper offline version but it will still distribute through Steam

[opaque falcon]

Well I hope you take another look at it after the general chaos that is the 1.0 release

make the offline mode drm free and I'm happy with that

Is there any plans to increase mob density in echos? Especially when playing MP it doesn’t seem to double the amount of mobs even solo it can feel lackluster as in more walking then fighting.

What was the inspiration for making such an awesome loot filter system built right into the game? It's almost as complex as POE's and 100x more usable.

[placid plinth]

we didn't want people to need to go to another website to use it

[steep hare]

Does using maul count as landing ?

[placid plinth]

yes

[steep hare]

excellent, i shall head to the forum to report 😄

[mossy lantern]

I just wanna clarify if it's a bug or design first - When you convert Smite to cost Life and/or be 100% reduced cost, then end on negative mana, it will prevent you from using the life cost/zero cost skill. Is this intended or should I report it?

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure, I really can't be confirming if things are intended or not. Also, as far as we are concerned, it doesn't matter. Even if it is intended and you feel like it's a bug, that information is still very useful.

[fierce gate]

Is it intended for players to be able to skip campaign entirely by teleporting into The End of Time in multiplayer?

[mossy lantern]

Roger that. Report it is, thanks for the reply 👍

[placid plinth]

Yes, however I really can't be confirming if things are intended or not. Also, as far as we are concerned, it doesn't matter. Even if it is intended and you feel like it's a bug, that information is still very useful.

[kind nexus]

A dev that actually plays the game is impressive regardless

[fierce gate]

No. It's just refreshing to play that way. With a little less rules that often enforced by the ARPG genre

[kind nexus]

Usually there ain't no time for that

[steep hare]

With the community growing significantly (yay) with this release, are you considering getting other devs to join you in your quest to answer every question we have ?

If we get 60 corruption in empowered timeline, monsters get 30% More damage and health bringing it to total 80% increase of monster HP and damage, but if we get 30% increased damage and health mod from echo in an empowered timeline we get total 95 (50% from 100 corruption, 45 from 30*1.5). Is my math correct here or are there some other increases to monster HP and damage that are getting multiplied by that more modifier from corruption?

[steep hare]

Mike just answered this for me above, bug report it on the forums, none of that branch works 🙂

Is there an ETA on fixes for Rythme of fire, conflagrate or rage sap?

for mages

[placid plinth]

all the increases get added together
then all the mores get individually multiplied on

Question about multiplayer: say I have a unique ring that I have dropped while playing solo, as well as an exalted ring I dropped while in party with a friend. If we go to Temporal Sanctum together and I create a legendary out of them, will I be able to gift that legendary to my friend?

[placid plinth]

no

[cinder basin]

Hello, I was wondering why didn't you do the 0.9 release on a Monday. I think it would be easier on the devs for the first bugfixes not to be on the weekend. Also since people would play less in weekdays and work hours it would help a lot of people not experience the bugs before the first bugfixes in contrast with the weekend play numbers. Thank you for the answer in advance.

[cinder canopy]

will there be a trading feature in the game sorta like poe in the futhere

[rich laurel]

Yes

[placid plinth]

we released on the thursday so we would have time to fix any immediate problems before the weekend. most people want to play right at the start or at least very early and having that be a weekend for most people is desirable.

[lucid valley]

https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/trade-development-update-introducing-merchants-guild-and-circle-of-fortune-factions/51994

[scenic cove]

That much I know) I guess my question was - are there some hidden increases on monsters, like from monster mods on rares that also get multiplied by corruption modifiers?

[placid plinth]

if there is a monster mod which is increasing the health then that is applied along with any other increases to health and then any more values are multiplied in. I'm not sure what the confusion is, sorry.

[meager cedar]

if I give EHG my first born child, will you make shards auto pickup? it would be like the child surprise dealio

[sullen copper]

Auto pickup is my ONLY complaint about this game. in relation to loot of on shards/gold.. shard clicking is the only timewaster 😦 Do wish a pet or auto pickup of the two regardless of range was included

[rough prism]

I'm currently experiencing a progression stopper bug that's been reported variously from every couple of months (to recently, every few hours) with no workaround offered or given beyond the occasional request for a log. Surely there comes a point where an EHG employee can officially say the only remedy is making a new character?

At what point in the process is that communication meant to occur?

[fallow garden]

Is the mini-map intended to be empty (except for those altar/shrine icons) in arena encounters, or should I report it as a bug?

[placid plinth]

I'm sorry, I don't have any details on the status or workarounds of any bugs. If you'd like to talk to someone directly about an issue you are having, you can contact #support . We are very busy right now. I'm trying to fix bugs while answering questions about the game in here.

#👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs

[rough prism]

It does not happen on the forums; per your:

[placid plinth]

We take the reports from the forums and prioritize them and distribute them to devs to fix.

[severe vortex]

how do you feel about allowing to filter runes glyphs and affix shards?

[rough prism]

Do you understand why having a list of known bugs stops individuals from flooding communication channels with the same issues and concerns?

[fossil dune]

(it doesn't stop it, at all)

[placid plinth]

unnecessary

[scenic cove]

nah, that's on me, having a hard time to phrase that question properly)
It just looked to me that sometimes getting a higher corruption, which is a scary MORE modifier could not be as bad as getting a simple echo mod with increased stats, because when you get more corruption you are actually stacking ONE more modifier additively.
Let's say we have a monster with base stats of 1000 HP and 100 damage.
100 corruption (50% more) would bring it to 1500 HP and 150 damage, and getting additional 60 corruption (+30% more) would bring it to 1800/800.
But, if we have the same monster on 100 corruption and get a 30% increased modifier from echo, we actually bring monster to 1950/195.
Which is where my confusion came from. But I guess that only works for normal monsters, without additional modifiers.

[severe vortex]

i hate it when i click 1 shard i want and i get like 20 shards of useless resist mods i have hundreds of clog my inventory and screen up

[placid plinth]

the list would be so overwhelming to attempt to look at. the most important ones are what is happening right now and that is searchable on the website

[sleek bluff]

not sure if this has been answered before (discord search sucks), but can you trade items that have been crafted with rune of ascendance (provided that you are in the same zone as your friend)?

[placid plinth]

(discord search is great if you use the tags)
no

[sleek bluff]

okay thanks 🙂

[scenic cove]

O.o isn't modifier from 160 corruption a single 80% more?

[severe vortex]

another small thing that ive noticed is that key nodes on timelines give more gold if you sell keys than actual gold nodes. is that intended?

[placid plinth]

sorry, I just looked at the more/increases and did it, no, the corruption is all 1

[sleek bluff]

oh also - when will the update be implemented that will allow you to trade items you find solo with friends that you've played with for a while? Is that a 1.0 thing?

[steep hare]

So this is a bug, because yes you can trade crafted ascendance items to a friend as long as the item dropped with you both in the party

[placid plinth]

probably not intentional and probably shifts at higher difficulties

[placid plinth]

when it's ready

[sleek bluff]

sick, looking forward to it 🙂

[severe vortex]

with addition of multiplayer you kinda want to lootfilter for all 4 builds in 1 party in one filter. are there plans to allow for more than 75 rules to accomodate that? its kinda hard to fit proper filtering for 4 builds in one filter

[placid plinth]

there are performance concerns with too many rules, probably not

[rough prism]

That was the problem in the first place. You can search all you want, but EHG hasn't communicated anything back out. People submit bugs, reply to requests for logs, and never hear anything back. Communication has to be in both directions. If you notice, I never asked you for help with the bug. All of my questions have been asking when or where in the process EHG would communicate back out, and those questions have largely been deflected or gone unanswered by you.

[prisma flume]

Does Last Epoch use P2P (peer to peer) connections for anything (like error logs)?

[placid plinth]

we don't have time to reply to the bug reports, especially when it is so busy like now. For now, it'll just have to be with the patch notes.

Here is a list of some known and upcoming fixes https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/0-9-launch-update-and-upcoming-hotfixes/52667

[placid plinth]

no

[severe vortex]

just curious, would allowing multiple affix/basetype sections within one rule be bad for performance while keeping same rulecount? like allowing to filter for exatly oracle amulet+coral ring within same rule or filtering for spellcrit+critmulti or crit+critmulti but not crit+spellcrit within same rule?

that would pretty much solve my issue

[prisma flume]

Very interesting. When I switched to a VPN to diagnose my desync and disconnect issues I found the VPN complained every time I had a disconnect or desync by saying "p2p connections are not supported by this connection" which seemed to imply something on Last Epoch was making the error happen.

[placid plinth]

I can't remember why that had to be done that way but there was a specific reason. I'm not sure if it's fixable soon or not

[rough prism]

It has not been 'busy like now' for 3 years. It's still a progression stopper bug that is happening right now, so by your metric, it's still in the highest priority. The breakdown in communication is a process problem. It's a piece of software; there'll always be bugs. Your process for handling them appears to be a very poor experience on the user and developer side.

[placid plinth]

ok, thanks for the feedback

[rough stream]

I have a chest with a +1 to fireball, and +1 to meteor skill, but when I use one, the skill in the other disappears. Is this a bug, or can I only have one skill level increase on my body armor??

[craggy kiln]

Will there be a way to improve the odds of a high roll on a blessing/upgrade the percentages more deterministically? Currently a couple percentages off stuff like crit avoidance or all resists could be a difference between hitting the cap or not which could be annoying especially if you want to make multiple characters

[placid plinth]

no plans to

how do you feel about adding some setting that would remove "eye candy" kinda visual effects that dont convey any meaningful information but would help performance on lower end machines?

[hollow ether]

Hey there :) I'm looking at Abyssal Echoes, and I have two small questions:

• When you press alt, it says "deals X total damage over its duration". Does that means that increasing its duration would decrease its dps, or does it keep dps constant and increase total damage?
• The "Fragility" node says that abyssal decay is not consumed, but without the "Impair the Weak" node behind it, it would still only deal damage once if we hit the enemy multiple times, right? The "not consumed" part is the debuffs applied by abyssal decay, like blind?

[cursive basin]

I'm looking at a node that says 'recover cooldown when you hit a boss' uh...what counts as a boss? how do I know? is orbyss a boss?

what if it's just a sub-boss?

[rough prism]

A suggestion: I'm sure you have an internal pinboard for bug tracking. Have a support team member write up a list of known bugs and their status, possibly once every two weeks after the patch cycle calms back down. It'll slightly reduce the volume of inquiries and employees will be able to spend more time triaging each bug rather than trying to crunch through a flood. Even a lot of what gets posted in here is just "is x bugged?".

[placid plinth]

#support has a contact form, top right

Is there a difference in drop rates in offline vs online? I noticed I got like 10 uniques before lvl 20 in offline, while in online at that point I usually have only gotten one, since this patch. Or am I just being unusually lucky on this character?
