Any insight on what the 'Limited Attempt' mechanic for monoliths is going to be that Judd mentioned in the forum post?

[jagged relic]

does any +flat damage type effect any DoT base damage? +fire for base ignite, +physical for base bleed, etc.. or are DoT effects only affected by % modifiers?

[placid plinth]

if you mean by dungeons, yes

[placid plinth]

no eta

[placid plinth]

no, flat only affects hits

[opaque falcon]

https://streamable.com/e5cfrh here is the video of the bug lol

[placid plinth]

please don't post bugs here at all

!bug

[fiery lily]

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

[primal girder]

Not when, what 😛

[opaque falcon]

ohh ok

[placid plinth]

oh sorry, I'm not sure exactly, likely a system by which you only have limited attempts to complete it. which I know doesn't help at all

[sleek geyser]

Who would be the best to get in touch with for pr/media request?

[severe vortex]

do developers think glyph and rune droprates are in a good spot? it feels like i am mega overflowing on every crafting currency other than glyph of despair from like level80 usually(i like rarity of glyph of despair though). usually you are limited by currency in other games to craft. here it feels like the only 2 things that ever matter past like first 3-4 timelines are getting a base to glyph of despair and then the glyph itself.

[tropic lava]

Hi guys, Is there a way to show FPS?

[sleek geyser]

u can use the steam overlay

#support has a contact form that will be directed to the right person

[placid plinth]

please try to keep #368968647114227723 to that channel.
I think they are in a generally pretty good spot overall. Having them be plentiful enough that you can use them while leveling but not like candy to the point where you don't need to give it a second thought any more to the rarer ones

[hollow quail]

What was the inspiration behind making an arpg based around an artifact that lets you travel through time? Was there something that did something cool like this and you wanted to take it further?

Also, Julra epoch switching use is really awesome. Id like to see more of that and puzzles too!

[placid plinth]

Chrono Trigger is a huge influence for us on this game

[hollow quail]

Of course... it makes sense now 😆

[steep hare]

Any chance the 2% chance to be crit works like POE's crit curse ?
Specifically, is the 2% (per stack) multiplied by your increased chance to crit?

[severe vortex]

what does "reduces targetting accuracy" in the text of blind ailment mean?

[placid plinth]

enemies will have a variance added to their lateral targeting which will cause them to sometimes miss.

[steep hare]

also - check the ingame guide, it has a fantastic explanation

[opaque falcon]

are there plans to balance multiplayer? been levelling with 4 players total, and I feel like one person could easily carry everyone else...don't know if this changes at higher levels (so far played until level 50)....pretty easy ride so far basically, enemy health scaling doesn't seem to break a sweat for difficulty

[placid plinth]

pretty sure it's additive after the fact (10% confidence)

[placid plinth]

there are always plans to balance everything

[steep hare]

Any news on when Maso mode will be re released?

[opaque falcon]

yeah but its a tough one to crack, I understand not doing damage scaling (even though theoretically good teams could boost defenses of a defensive player) ... also just increasing health is not a big issue for high damage comps...I really don't know whats the optimal way of balancing multiplayer lol

[placid plinth]

no

[severe vortex]

is there an official stance on "numlocking"?

[placid plinth]

it sucks that people need to do it

[severe vortex]

but is it something that developers mind people doing or is it endorsed?

[topaz mantle]

I’m pretty sure of the answer, but Foe Cleaver (inside Rive) wouldn’t double the chance for e.g Volcanus to proc Magma Shards?

[severe vortex]

asking cause it clearly doesnt feel intentional and i am playing a build that does it

[opaque falcon]

known issue that some of the ardent pack pets are missing? (namely brash skullen)

also on that note, when are the new supporter packs coming?

[placid plinth]

it's not intentional, it's frustrating that it's happening but we don't have any policy against it and don't blame anyone for doing it if they want

[placid plinth]

not sure what the node does but I'd be surprised given that info

[placid plinth]

not all the current mtx is displaying properly yet
sooooooon (I hope)

[opaque falcon]

no worries, just knowing it's acknowledged issue is good enough for know as you guys have your hands full of higher priority issues

[jagged relic]

has there been any talk about pre-planning skill points so when I specialize I can select the points I want and it auto-spends them? 🥹

[placid plinth]

yes, personally I like the first half of that but don't like the auto-spend

[steep hare]

Is there currently any way to buy supporter packs ? if no, rough guess on when it will be available?

[placid plinth]

no, hopefully soon

[jagged relic]

well, auto-spend isn't a requirement. I usually think about what the entire skill will look like when I get it, then forget halfway while leveling 😁

one last technical Q, if you have multiple minions of different types with DoTs and a minion DoT would kill the enemy on tick, who gets credit for the kill?

[placid plinth]

if a minion kills the enemy, the minion gets the kill, if you kill the enemy, you get the kill

dots ticks display together but the damage is sequential

[steep hare]

Clarifying question if i may, is it first or last dot applied that would get this kill?
also, if the dot has multiple stacks, is it the last stack applied?

[placid plinth]

all of the sources tick in order applied

[karmic reef]

Is there a plan on making monolith's progression account shared (per cycle of course)?

[calm pawn]

Why rogue class dont have any starting abilities to play with bow?

[placid plinth]

not at the moment

[placid plinth]

the first scarab bug thing always drops a bow for you

[calm pawn]

Yes, but only ability which is usable for bow, is available when you choose spec, so before that you cannot play with bow, only auto attack 🙂

[fossil dune]

Flurry, Puncture, and Cinder Strike are all usable with bows

So are Shurikens and Umbral Blades

[placid plinth]

that

[calm pawn]

They are usable with any weapon, but its not bow abilities

[fossil dune]

They... They are?

[placid plinth]

yes they are

[calm pawn]

how bow is making shurikens? 😄

[placid plinth]

Flurry, Puncture, and Cinder Strike

[calm pawn]

or Umbral blades, dont see logic there 😄

[fossil dune]

The first three I listed LITERALLY shoot arrows

[calm pawn]

i want to shoot arrows, not shurikens 😄

[placid plinth]

Flurry, Puncture, and Cinder Strike

[south cedar]

But do they shoot arrows?

[placid plinth]

all bow abilities that shoot arrows

yes

[calm pawn]

For me its strange that using bow, you shoot shurikens 😄

[placid plinth]

I genuinely can't tell if you're trolling or not

[fossil dune]

Same

[subtle socket]

Bows don't shoot shurikens in real life but you'll also not encounter a shade of orybyss on your way to the grocery store

[south cedar]

It's cause you ain't trying hard enough

[fossil dune]

idk bout that, I'll check back with you after my shift

[south cedar]

It's not safe but I infact can fire shurikens with a bow

So I fail to see the complaints

[fossil dune]

Sorry Mike

[subtle socket]

I won't push the joke further since it's not the right channel but my point being that a bow could shoot rainbows and it wouldn't really matter since it's a fantasy game haha

[south cedar]

I cannot resist making joked

[dusty furnace]

what happens when i take 2 conversion nodes for one skill? warpath has a node that converts everything to void damage and time rot chance and says explicit that it converts ignite chance. it also has many nodes that increase ignite chance, but behind a fire conversion node. if i take both, can i profit from the +ignite node and from the conversion to void damage / time rot chance?

[placid plinth]

it only does 1, usually if one comes from an item, that one wins

[dusty furnace]

can i manipulate which one it does? so that i can take the void conversion for warpath, ignore the fire conversion, but still get the ignite chance up?

[alpine swallow]

Hello! Is it intentional not to be able to collect items in a game with a friend? I saw them, they have no name but can't do nothing 🤨

[whole juniper]

In the smite tree there is a conversion from fire to lightning and then behind that it adds lightning strikes to smite. If you take the smite converted to void damage in VOid Knight the initial smite hit appears to do void damage but not the additional lightning strikes from the smite tree. Is this intended?

[placid plinth]

the priority is hard coded, void wins. it still applies the other stats granted, just only does 1 conversion

[subtle socket]

If you hold X, can you pick the item up? Wondering if your loot filter is the problem and X deactivates it temporarily

[placid plinth]

you've likely accidentally hidden item labels with alt+x press it again to show

[dusty furnace]

nice, exactly how i want it. Thanks!

[placid plinth]

yes

[whole juniper]

Thank you for the speedy reply, gotta change a build. Love what you guys are doing

[alpine swallow]

Even by holding I have no name & can't pick up (I saw in the bottom filter disable though)

[analog lichen]

@placid plinth Shurikens Base Damage converted to Lightning
Does this convert physical throwing flat from passives or throwing attack physical from affix?

[placid plinth]

sorry, it's alt+z

[placid plinth]

no

[alpine swallow]

For a qwerty keyboad?

[placid plinth]

yes

[wanton geyser]

Are the servers still on fire? Ive been dcing every 15 minutes since multiplayer went live.

[placid plinth]

overall they are doing well

[wanton geyser]

Then I must have an actual game issue

[alpine swallow]

Thanks that solved the problem, that weird that the new update reset this key

[karmic crest]

On the Marksman passive "Ethereal Arrows", it says: "Bow Mana Cost -> Increased Damage: 50% per Point". Does that mean any bow skill gets 50% increased damage per point of mana cost per passive point? Cause if I'm not mistaken that would mean that Cinder Strike with Overexertion would get 1,500% increased damage per passive point, up to 15,000% increased damage at 10 points, which sounds too insane to be true.

[wanton geyser]

With 10 points invested you receive 5% increased damage per mana spent.

[sullen copper]

@placid plinth serious question here... what is your favorite character and skills to use in LE?

[placid plinth]

nope, it works exactly as it's written

[static vale]

But it reads like it's 50% increased damage per point of mana.

[placid plinth]

I'm a huge rogue fanboy, mostly use bow skills but I've been going 2H BD this patch

[placid plinth]

you bow attacks deal increased damage equal to a portion of their mana cost

rate: 50% per point

[ornate aurora]

[median wyvern]

[hasty moat]

Does generic 'attack speed' impact throwing hammer? It says it only goes up by throwing attack speed, but this attack speed talent doesn't specify melee attack speed, it just says attack speed.

Cool, thanks for the clarification.

How does exp gained work now, in areas significantly higher than your level? Like im lvl 76, doing lvl 90 monos. Do i get less than before 0.9?

[leaden island]

do you know when the server region will be fixed?

[placid plinth]

so I know this doesn't make any sense but it is actually putting you in the server region with the lowest ping

[leaden island]

I'm being connected in central US but I'm from SA, in US I have 150 - 170ms and in SA 19ms 😦

[placid plinth]

basically if you're more than 10 levels under, you gain xp as though the zone was 10 levels above you. So in that scenario, you'd get xp as though the zone was lvl 86.
No, you get more than before 0.9

[placid plinth]

when you are sent to the US like that, it is picking the server with lower ping at that time

[crimson dune]

Hello! Are there any plans for additonal iterative mastery changes leading up to 1.0, a la druid shapeshifts and the like, or will they be packed together in the full release?

[placid plinth]

no eta

[jagged jungle]

sad panda is sad

[placid plinth]

yes there will be more skill changes pre 1.0

Neat! Can't wait to see what's in store. Thanks!

[median wyvern]

there any reason characters would be wiped/deleted? dont wanna run the story a ton of times to get them deleted in 1.0

[placid plinth]

we don't plan to wipe characters, however we will be starting a new ladder/cycle on 1.0 release so these characters will move to "standard"

[median wyvern]

thx

[jagged jungle]

can i confirm if pause function is at least on the books?

[jagged relic]

are there plans to add additional stat displays like minion bleed/poison/ignite chances, etc

[placid plinth]

tentatively, we have attempted it in the past and hit a wall. It actually does pause in offline mode in the editor.

[placid plinth]

yes

[subtle socket]

Here's another one that's not about 1.0 ETA, Mike.
You know in PoE how some leagues get added to the "core" game, meaning they will be part of the next league etc.
Some could argue that it bloats the game too much and others could argue that the more content the better.

Does your team have a stance on moving cycle mechanics to core LE or is that something that's not popular with you guys?

[placid plinth]

We don't plan to run 2 different versions of the game at all

[jagged jungle]

strange that it wont allow on production version. is it a conflict because its server side?

[placid plinth]

no

[subtle socket]

I mostly meant it for the second cycle
If the mechanic is really a crowd favorite, is there a possibility that it would be added as a core mechanic for future cycles ?

[jagged jungle]

fair enough. well, thanks anyway 🙂

[stray marsh]

Is Mana Arrow supposed to supersede Rapid Detonation? I have both but the arrows don't exploded immediately and the 15% chance is applied.

[placid plinth]

sorry, I don't think I was clear, we don't plan to have the concept of a "cycle mechanic" and "core mechanic". It will just be "mechanics".

[subtle socket]

Ok yeah that makes sense and that answers it. As always, thanks a lot Mike

[glass thorn]

is it on purpose that the T1 soulfire dungeon does not drop a unique every time? I am sorry but I cant remember the exacts of how those items drop from t1-4. Any info appreciated as I am getting questions on stream about it ❤️

[placid plinth]

there is a 15% chance that the 2nd arrow will cause the 1st to explode is how I read that

[placid plinth]

should drop this
https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/items/UAzCMCYFYHYg

[stray marsh]

But without Rapid Detonation that is how Mana Arrow works, a 15% chance. Rapid Detonation states that if the enemy has an arrow it in, the second arrow explodes the first.

[placid plinth]

I think it's doing the 15% by just not attaching at all 85% of the time

[stray marsh]

That would kill the skill if that immediate explosion was now a 15% chance.

[spark hound]

i'm unsure here, this node means that with 3 points I'll have at most a 99% more multiplier for each blade? i.e. 18% per slow * 3 max slow = 54% and 45% max for bleed stacks so 54+45 = 99? is that right?

[stray marsh]

So it removes the first arrow, on impact, if it rolls the 85% chance to not explode and doesn't remain the .6 seconds? Is that intended? It's conflicting Rapid Explosion at that point.

The skill makes it seem like it attaches for .6 seconds and then has a chance to explode.

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure how it's doing it mechanically. That was just one way I would considering doing it. It isn't conflicting either way though. If you give the explosion a 15% chance to happen, it doesn't matter what the trigger is, it only happens 15% of the time.

[desert imp]

can someone explain why sigils of hope goes from 35 mana to 24 mana with +50% mana efficiency? how is that calculated?

[crimson dune]

35 / (1+0.5)

[placid plinth]

each one is calculated individually so it's actually more because they are multiplicative with each other, not additive.

[desert imp]

great, tyvm. I was doing 35 * 1.5 to see the difference

[spark hound]

that's poggers yeah i think it's a 123% modifier. that's awesome.

[fading mica]

Will I be able to gift my party member an item if I create it with rune of creation while we are partying?

[placid plinth]

no

[fading mica]

ok. Thank you very much.

[stray marsh]

Still a little confused because a single arrow has a 15% chance to explode after .6 seconds, but if there is already and arrow in a target the next one should explode the first one if its within the .6 second time frame.

[placid plinth]

unless it only has a 15% chance to explode

which it would

think of it like you're lowering the quality of the fuse material used and it's pretty faulty so 85% are just duds

[stray marsh]

So the 15% supersedes "Explodes Immediately"

[placid plinth]

how about this wording for rapid detonation
when you shoot an enemy with an arrow already attached, the trigger time remaining is reduced to 0

[echo bone]

Hello, does "% increased channeling damage" affix also increase the damage of skills that are procc'd by said channeled skills? (for example, Smite when channeling Warpath with Wind of Justice

Hey Mike, was wondering how low the odds were that my friend found a rune of creation at level 17

[placid plinth]

I can't get exact numbers but it's mega mega low

[stray marsh]

Having both passives still breaks the skill because all it is doing is reducing the time to the 15% chance you may have, if not skill breaking its a horrible combo, 10/10 would not recommend. @placid plinth

[wooden bridge]

hey mike i have a question about scaling, shadow daggers has both the melee and thrown tag. does that mean it takes bonuses from both kinds (double dipping basically, many rogue nodes give both), or are they averaged somehow?

yes

[dusty furnace]

void knight has a skill that converts smites damage to void damage. does that also convert every fire and DoT damage from smite to void damage, like ignite, fissure, spreading flames, detonation on kill ,...

[placid plinth]

don't think so

[burnt venture]

Is it intended that other party players does not benefit from monolith rewards nodes like "set rewards" or "unique rewards" ?

Seems pretty harsh for group play since they basically have no good rewards

[karmic crest]

On Decoy, if I choose the node that throws multiple decoys, can one target get damaged by both explosions?

[placid plinth]

their reward options are rolled with the same values that the node you did was rolled with. On average, you will all get the same number of unique nodes because each time they get 2 rolls at it.

[placid plinth]

yes

[karmic crest]

Nice

[burnt venture]

So they can get same rolls as me, they just can't choose compared to the host ?

[stray marsh]

This makes sense to me for the 15% chance and no arming time.

[placid plinth]

they get a choice between 2 and it can be the same but it isn't affected by what the actual node you picked was, just distance from center (as the crow flies)

[placid plinth]

same thing

[burnt venture]

oh okay, ty !

[karmic crest]

Similary, on Acid Flask, if I spec into CLuster Bomb (3 secondary explosions), are these secondary explosions additional damage ticks, or is it just an AOE increase?

[opaque falcon]

the erro code that lemon and i r getting is LE-94 cannot fetch party data

@meager rain
dont think you need uniques for that, just play abom

anyone have any ideas on the error code LE-94?

[stray marsh]

Yeah, I'll make a suggestion to have Rapid Detonation read more this Barrage in the fact it reduces the arming time of the first arrow and in fact does not make it exploded immediately.

[placid plinth]

50/50, sorry
I think that should be new hits
the decoy is easy because they are different minions

[placid plinth]

#suggestions-and-like-to-see

[karmic crest]

50/50 as in you don't know, or as in it's a 50/50 chance what happens?

[placid plinth]

I don't know

[karmic crest]

ok

Is there a general rule whether enemies can be hit multiple times by the same skill use or is it different from skill to skill?

[placid plinth]

if it's a new skill, it should be fine

it should work, I'm just hesitant because it's the same skill again

[fallow garden]

Are there any plans to expand on the current item filter system, specifically on visual customization, e.g. a bigger choice of possible colours, or custom icons to be shown on the minimap when something special drops?

[karmic crest]

If I spec Cinder Strike into Oil Coating, I get 5% increased fire damage for 4 seconds after hitting an enemy with this skill. If I throw a Decoy after hitting with Cinder Strike, and that Decoy explodes before the buff duration end, will it get the damage bonus? In other words: Does the explosion damage for Decoy get calculated at the time of the explosion or at the time of the skill use?

[placid plinth]

yes in general, no details yet

[dense shore]

any helpers?

[placid plinth]

well yes but actually no.
very technically speaking, the ability decoy does get the buff, however that stat is useless to a skill which summons a minion, so the stat vanishes into thin air before the decoy is created.

[placid plinth]

#support

[shadow badger]

are the mono blessing "on hit" considered even for minions's hit?

[karmic crest]

Ohh, so the explosion counts as minion damage, so any sort of fire damage increase does not effect it at all, and it is instead effected by minion damage?

[astral reef]

How many echoes one monolith has?

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure which you are referring to but on hit stats only apply to you unless it says minion on hit

[placid plinth]

at least 1 more.
but seriously, it's not calculated with a max, there is a max range so given perfect rng, you could probably figure out what the max and min number of nodes is

[shadow badger]

for example :"15% to shred fire res on hit" as level 90 monolith blessinng. Btw ok, thank you 🙂

[astral reef]

[brittle oxide]

after testing party play a bit, i would really want to hear from dev team, what is the point of party play? it seems scuffed so much.

1. only party leader receives specific echo reward (that alone ended party play pretty much for me and friend after 30 min testing)
2. inviting someone to join boss fight with you has some completely hidden and unclear requirements? if they do not have same\enough stability ? in same zone - they get no loot or blessing from boss

is that intended design and will be so in future?

i mean map reward for leader only really killed party grind for us completely after trying

[rugged nexus]

Will there at some point be a way to see tooltips like bleed chance with a skill/minion etc?

[placid plinth]

sorry, I think decoy might actually be different. I'm not sure on this one

[rigid quail]

@placid plinth how does reflect damage work in the game

[placid plinth]

tldr, once you learn it all, you'll realize that all plans you had won't work

[karmic crest]

ok, I get the idea tho.

[solemn musk]

Has anyone successfully built around Liath's Machination? Full conversion feels real lackluster, especially since you lose ignite

[placid plinth]

we do plan to increase the information in the character sheet

[quasi quiver]

Does retaliate/reflect still only return damage calculated after resistences? Actually came here to confirm it hasn't changed lol

[solemn musk]

Also stuff like Flammability doesn't shred lightning res

And Flame Burst =/= shock charge

[placid plinth]

party members get a selection from 2 rewards that are weighted based on the distance from the center of the node you just did

yes, everyone requires to have enough stability to get full timeline rewards

without these 2 systems in place, we immediately were faced with players making very degenerate optimization plans which causes major problems both design wise and under the hood. On top of that, we were immediately faced with massive bonuses to players who could have other people plan out a series of nodes for them to play. It was very bad. This is way better.

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure, you could be the 1st

[brittle oxide]

then it more like CoOP, not multiplayer, to be honest

[placid plinth]

basically, after all mitigation you reflect with untyped damage which bypasses 60% mitigation.

[placid plinth]

I still don't understand the distinction but thanks for the #368968647114227723

[brittle oxide]

i would never join someones party, and mine friends have same pov, solo farm is 10x > coop party play

[burnt venture]

because of the bugs xD

[placid plinth]

I would suggest that either there is some bug happening or you might not be understanding the system fully because it is nowhere near that big of a discrepancy and I would argue that it's actually slightly the other way.

[solemn musk]

Much more likely is far more numbers-inclined brains than mine have tried and failed!

I'm gonna keep muddling through it but I'm not quite sure how I am going to get enough shock charge chance to do anything

Very grumpy to find that there are shock charge generation on melee hit idols, but nothing for spell hit

[fallow garden]

Is there a cap to how far into the negative armour shred can push armour?

[placid plinth]

technically yes, you'll never hit it

[solemn musk]

I do have a more straightforward question: does spell speed affect channeling? Does it make damage pulses come faster?

[iron veldt]

Hey there. Is there a quick way you can test abilties on your side to confirm if something is broken?

[placid plinth]

I didn't, I feel like I read something about this in the patch notes though. or maybe that was an upcoming thing. sorry I'm not able to go look at the patch notes to check but if it does, it'll be in there

[meager steppe]

I'm hoping someone can help me. for some reason i'm in soulfire bastion, last room with the ward protected letter and I can't progress any further through the dungeon??

Does the sacrifice cast by my skele mages take the points from my specced sacrifice or is it just a basic one?

[iron veldt]

Thanks, will make a ticket now (Just in case someone is wondering - don't use ravenous void on void knight right now, its not working for me)

[placid plinth]

basic

[brittle oxide]

well, ill try to express impression a bit more clear

testing party play left feeling of online coop game, where there is host, progressing his campaign, or quests, and bot-like other members, being crowd\minions, not a full MP where all get equal benefits, and can start party play from eny point (like some other multiplayer games)

solo play is way way way more beneficial and profitable for progressing own character as party play, what just kills at least for me the point of it (if i am not a leader) - and thats same impression that mine friends got.

what are we missing?

[solemn musk]

I don't see anything about spell speed and channelling in the 0.9 notes, is there somewhere else I should look?

[severe vortex]

does class specific loot thing affect weapons and offhands too or only class specific items?

[brittle oxide]

hope makes more sense now

[placid plinth]

maybe nothing, I would rather not be the leader, and if you've got #368968647114227723 we're happy to read it

[placid plinth]

for rogue bows it affects it but that's it

[slow ivy]

Dodge in Path of Exile uses an "Entropy System", where it gradually works toward you actually getting hit (i can link an in-depth explanation if needed).
Does Dodge in Last Epoch work the same way, or is it totally random based on your Dodge % in whatever zone level?

[placid plinth]

Is that dodge in poe or evasion?
Either way, we don't do that.

[sullen copper]

😮

[slow ivy]

Evasion -- yeah, you're right. I misspoke

[placid plinth]

it's ok, Karv told me that's what it was anyways

[fresh cargo]

i actually had that question too. they do that so that its not so rng, like have 80% dodge rate but randomly eating 10 hits in a row sometime by pure rng and dying because of it

[gritty parrot]

How to tell what is additive vs multiplicative ?
Eg:

• % void damage
• % damage while channeling
• % melee attack damage
  For warpath, is this all added together or multiplied ?

[placid plinth]

each of those will either say increased or more.

increased is additive, more is multiplicative.

[placid plinth]

sorry, what's the question?

[sullen copper]

@placid plinth is there diminishing returns on crit cap or crit multipier ? and does it add when it is specific skill based or multiple after?

such as flame reave vs ignited enemies

[placid plinth]

sorry, can you expand you question, I'm not sure I understand.

[sullen copper]

some games have a soft crit cap such as it can't go above 30% or such

[placid plinth]

oh, no

[sullen copper]

same as the multiplier

[placid plinth]

nope

[sullen copper]

so sky is the limit

[placid plinth]

I thought cap was a typo for chance but yea you did mean cap

[sullen copper]

and if it's skill based does that just add on top of what you already have?

[placid plinth]

it applies as though you had that stat for that skill (but conditionals don't propagate to sub skills)

[sullen copper]

very cool ty

[orchid birch]

I tried to take screenshots, but actually made the process close, just a random bug report that is probably not reproducible lol xD

My char got bugged and the portal to the last refuge outskirts never opened, so I asked someone in chat to group with me so I could TP to them, as soon as I did the server kept sending me messages, of the actual coding function, which was very long in system chat, then I tried to take a SS, and it actually crashed.

I know thats not very helpful, but I did get the WP, so its all good lol ;p

@orchid birch

[orchid birch]

aye

[umbral jungle]

So with the bee hive helmet, am i correct in assuming that when it says "can stack", the bees can get multiple hundreds of % of poison or ignite chance from you spamming acid flask?

[placid plinth]

yes

[umbral jungle]

So the proper way to scale it is as a throwing build, rather than trying to also ignite/poison yourself w/ a melee skill

i guess im dropping bee gloves then and spamming acid flask

[slow ivy]

is there going to be a dev stream this Friday? 👀

But not in Disco? Only on the forum?

[orchid birch]

Whatever gets you there alive is the proper way.. lol

[placid plinth]

yes, we can't track them in discord

[umbral jungle]

yeah just seems inefficient to use the gloves to get more bees when you can get 24+ from one decoy pop and then spam flasks -- only problem is figuring out mana

[acoustic magnet]

KK

[umbral jungle]

had another question for you mike but dont remember what -- guess ill ask once i remember

[orchid birch]

Yeah if you are talking about what I said. it was totally a buffer overflow and very weird, I tried to take a screen shot and then it just closed the process, so im not sure how helpful that will be, but I will post a proper bug report. 🙂

[umbral jungle]

oh, i remember -- do the small explosions from cluster bomb also apply toxic coating to the bees? ie. can you get 4 applications per flask? and will barrage/salvo make it shotgun, ie. can you apply from more than 1 flask per cast?

[placid plinth]

I'd have to go digging to check, seems like a pretty easy thing to check in game though yea?

[umbral jungle]

there's no buff shown on the bees, so im not sure how to check in game

especially with no training dummies

[rich sparrow]

How do quest echoes work in multiplayer?

do they work?

[sullen copper]

@placid plinth is there any plans for adding dummies which will report damage received from which source?

[fresh orbit]

since there is no ingame gold trading, or any sort of trading that would make sense for this, RMT a banable offense?

[orchid birch]

I acutally hope you all go above and beyond and implent training dummys, that will not only let you attack them, but give you information about the sources of damage to them etc etc, it would make a lot of people happy becuase you can actually test builds in game

[placid plinth]

champion's gate has dummies, but yea it's hard if they don't get a buff icon

[placid plinth]

everyone who is there gets them if they met the stability requirement

[umbral jungle]

yeah they dont, hence the confusion -- if you get time to check at some point and it isnt too much trouble id love the info, otherwise I'll just operate under the assumption that it does shotgun?

[rich sparrow]

do you need to have the necessary progression in the monolith to be able to get the progress?

[placid plinth]

yes

[placid plinth]

no, just the regular dummies that are in champion's gate

[solemn musk]

ogod I'm such a doofus, I didn't realize that looking for Liath's had brought me out of the mage channel lmao

[fresh orbit]

should i report this anywhere else or?

[placid plinth]

shouldn't need the timeline unlocked I don't think

[umbral jungle]

oh yeah mike one other question, for decoy am i correct to assume that the acid fumes node ONLY replaces the ignite chance from on fire, and doesnt change burning oil to poison?

[placid plinth]

if you see it in the future, please open a #support ticket instead. I've done this one already

[umbral jungle]

my assumption is yes

[placid plinth]

yes

[umbral jungle]

alright cool, ty

[solemn musk]

but what if I am?

[solemn musk]

Good! There are too few choices for dude fashion imo, bring back the cape

[south cedar]

My son's big on capes rn

[solemn musk]

when i was small i wore my supergirl costume to school for a while because it had a cape to velcro on the back so i totally get it

[orchid birch]

If you still do Friday streams mike, which I am definitely behind on the latest and greatest...you better be weaing a cape lol :x xD

[placid plinth]

if you flip out the tag on your t-shirt, does that count as a very small cape?

[solemn musk]

yes, absolutely

[orchid birch]

lol

[umbral jungle]

im assuming increases to fire damage over time do NOT affect the bees, since minion fire damage over time would be a seperate stat?

[placid plinth]

yes

[umbral jungle]

oof that makes scaling this hard, since minion damage over time is only axes swords and spears (none of which get poison chance on rogue passive tree)

[west arch]

Is there a baseline rarity increase for the higher level zones? or is it just per individual echo?
Are there going to be other ways later down the line (such as league mechaincs) to increase rarity or drops etc? :)

[umbral jungle]

though i guess if you're scaling the minion burn and not your burn, you dont care about your chance

one last question then im done bugging you mike -- does the global damage over time modifier from blood serpents blades apply to your minions? I'm assuming yes, since it's global, but not 100% sure

I'm also assuming the healing from cloaked reaper does not apply when minions hit something, but does it heal the minions?

[placid plinth]

kinda, certain things like exalted items don't start dropping until some point. We do have ways planning to modify the method by which you are hunting items

[blissful swan]

If I convert upheaval to a totem, does the sub-skill that shatters other totems scale with minion stats now?

[dusky fog]

is there a way to trasfere form online to offline mode?

[placid plinth]

yes. just because that's how your totem gets damage. the stat stops being a minion stat once it's on a minion, then it's just a normal stat

[placid plinth]

not at the moment

[umbral jungle]

any clue on this?

[umbral jungle]

and this

these mechanics are not super clear

[dusky fog]

next patch or update??

[placid plinth]

not in the first hotfix

[placid plinth]

[placid plinth]

post the node?

[magic flax]

Dont know if it has been asked before, but is there a way ingame to see detailed stats for each minion? like current max life, defensive stats etc... like pressing C for your character?
If no, is there any plan to implement that? Would love that for my totems

[placid plinth]

lucky 3rd time today!
not yet, plans to improve it though

[trail egret]

greetings. i have a short question about void warpath. void ww scals with void right but even if the skill is skilled to void, it is still a physical attack, so physical penetration should be good, right?

[velvet leaf]

Does legendary potential require higher zone lvl? What's the maximum legendary potential you can have on a Unique?

no but it helps, 4

[magic flax]

Thanks lol, you guys are great! keep up the good work

[umbral jungle]

oof that's rough, i thought dot damage felt a bit low with it but makes sense -- I guess passive points are all going to be defensive then

Any idea how the second node interacts with minions?

[acoustic flame]

Is it intended to not be able to go into Lightless Arbor after using a key?

[umbral jungle]

I'm assuming if you give your minions shrouds theyll heal on hitting a boss

[placid plinth]

when you kill and enemy or hit a rare or boss enemy....you, only you.

[white coral]

any plan for a "attack without moving" option? or something similar

[umbral jungle]

[spring otter]

Any plans on rethinking the exclusion of triggered skills from some passives that state if you cast a spell? Playing around with the harbinger of stars belt and half the passives i'd like to take to make it somehow workable are relying on selfcast.

[placid plinth]

physical pen applies to physical damage, when converted, warpath is not a physical skill, it is still a melee skill. if you add +10 physical melee damage from an affix that still benefits from physical penetration

[placid plinth]

not specifically, #suggestions-and-like-to-see

[trail egret]

i mean, at least is warpath a skill that hits the enemy, any hit is reduced by physical resistance, so pen and shre should also work like void pen/shred or not?

[placid plinth]

any hit is reduced by physical resistanceno

[trail egret]

even if your damage is void

hmm

[placid plinth]

any hit is reduced by armor though

[trail egret]

but if so, why is physical resistance there if only armor works?

[placid plinth]

physical resistance reduces physical damage

armor reduces all hits

so physical resistance works vs bleed but armor doesn't

armor works vs a void hit but physical resistance doesn't

armor and physical resistance both work vs a physical hit

[trail egret]

hmm, any hit should be a physical hit, if void/fire or what ever

[placid plinth]

no

[trail egret]

but ok . so void knight dont need physical pen or shred right?

[placid plinth]

depends if you are doing physical damage or not

[trail egret]

as void warpath nope

thank you very much for your time and your help

[placid plinth]

closing in 11 mins

[trail egret]

1 last question, everytime someone ask something in hte forum or here, i only see you answer, theres no help for you?

[cursive basin]

I don't know if its intended or not, but the initial and returning void rift 'enemies take increased damage' effect seems to stack. Or maybe the 1st rift is the 'enemies take 60% increased dot' and the 2nd rift is 'enemies take 30% increased dmg.'

[placid plinth]

lots of people are very busy on different fronts, it's not just me

[trail egret]

ah ok,

[umbral jungle]

one more dumb question mike, does the increased fire damage from this apply to minion applied ignites?

ie. the more damage to enemies affected by spreading flames

Hey Mike! Before the floodgates open I wanted to ask you for finding class-specific uniques does it matter what class are you playing ? And can you get say unique primalist helm by using rune of ascendance-ing an acolyte helm ?

[rugged nexus]

does volatile zombies vomit count as dot damage and so armor shred is useless for it?

[kindred sand]

I imagine somewhere maybe code exists that could help explain but I haven't looked at any of that yet @lone ginkgo just note don't try to modify anything as the game is server authorative and will always sync back to what server has. BUT you can read and learn the games logic to understand how things work :)

[crude plover]

Does the flat crit chance from CRIT vulnerability get added before or after increased modifiers, as in:

Is it
Crit chance * increased crit chance + crit vuln

Or
(Crit chance + crit vuln) * increased crit chance

[lone ginkgo]

or I can ask Mike 😄

yeah that took I guess lol

[amber elk]

Hi, I have some question regard to base damage conversion. (I cannot find my answer from in-game guide)
I have read some thread discuss this area.
What I understand is; Suppose I have 100 base Phy damage (skill), 100% base physical damage convert to lightning damage, 10% increase lightning damage, 10% increase physical damage.
It will result in 110 lightning damage (because the 10% phys doesn't affect this since the skill tag changes from phys to lightning)

But when I actually test it, I equip a piece of gear with 10% increase physical damage, the tooltip damage goes up.

Does this mean the +%phys actually affect the conversion logic or the tooltip somehow show incorrect information?
(My setup is Lethal mirage with 2x Fulgurite)

[placid plinth]

pretty sure, also I think it will have an alt tooltip in the skill tree so you can see the tags

[placid plinth]

you've got it right, but if you are applying any physical damage through say and added physical melee damage affix on gear, the 10% increased physical damage will still apply to that.

[placid plinth]

1st one, it gets added after the fact.

[solar geyser]

Any plans to have currency other than gold in the game?

[placid plinth]

no

is there a reason or insight behind why endgame content is character-specific versus account-specific? having a completely separate monolith/echo web/whatever grind for each character probably means just one character per cycle so i don't have to re-grind the whole thing numerous times

[placid plinth]

having that character progression is important for the development of that character, being able to jump right into level 100 monoliths has been a pitfall for new players especially. If you've got #suggestions-and-like-to-see or #368968647114227723 on it, we are listening.

[trim sparrow]

Is there any news regarding the auto server selection? a hotfix or something? playing with 160 ms the last couple of days have been real pain.

[south cedar]

So my first question is a bit of a lore question. What are shards exactly? Are manifested physical pieces of magic? Moving a bit towards mechanics, but would we see timeline specific pieces of lore? Like some shards of some mystical enchantment that was done in that timeline? What about uniques that have to be forged from shards like in a special dungeon? I was wondering where else you'd take these shards down the line in development

Ty in advance! Hope you have a nice day!

I was just wondering while driving and wanted to ask real quick inbetween things today

[placid plinth]

We've looked into it and the servers are selecting the best ping option available. We are still evaluating what we can do quickly to help.

[astral reef]

thats false

[woeful glacier]

but even a new player will have had one character level naturally, get to the endgame, then level a second character. by the time a new player gets to monoliths the second time, requiring them to re-grind might not be as big a pitfall? i'll def leave it as feedback, for now i was just wondering why it was set up the way it is

[placid plinth]

lol, not sure about what the shards actually are, that's kinda what I thought.
yes, maybe, I don't know, lots of #suggestions-and-like-to-see there

[trim sparrow]

There has to be a bug then, im playing from Brazil and im conected to the NA server, with 170 ping. The other day I was conected to SA server with 5 ping.

[placid plinth]

oh, sorry, I didn't know you could see all the data

[astral reef]

i mean ive seen million reports when it throws you other side of the world with huge lags and desyncs

[quasi crown]

what kinda of dmg does minions get from int... chosing between minion melee dmg or int

[strange tusk]

Speaking of servers, I've never seen EU East appearing anywhere for me, assuming it exists to begin with. Does it exist at all?

[placid plinth]

hold alt on the tooltip to see details

[placid plinth]

I think it's just west and central

[fickle perch]

Damn, Last Epoch has achieved millions of players even if we only count the ones which wrote a bug report, that's quite a feat ! 🙃

[strange tusk]

||Belarus|| here, so far I've only been playing on EU West.

[solar geyser]

Are you a dog person or cat person?

[astral reef]

eu seems to be fine but asia etc are not

[placid plinth]

my wife has a cat

[south cedar]

I think shards are interesting because for the most part we take them at face value as a common gameplay mechanic and material style. I was just thinking about them more as I was driving and it struck me as leading towards some cool ideas that'd fit lore wise

[heady laurel]

when abandon quests feature?

🐒

[placid plinth]

no eta

[heady laurel]

thx for the quick response though

[stark hatch]

Question about mage's skill Focus. If I take the node Shocking Aura, the less damage taken from shocked enemies applies only when channeling focus or all the time? For example I shock an enemy with my Static Orb. Will it deal less damage to me because of Shocking Aura?

[cerulean nymph]

Two days ago i went in party a few areas with a friend in na west while im in eu west. The system decided i should go to his server. Wouldnt make sense for us to be at na east at least? thats the thing im less sure about automated servers

[hybrid nacelle]

How are the dmg ticks from dmg over time and healing over time done? Are they all on a global tick timer? Are they all added together prior to changing your health? Will you die if you have 100 Max Health, 40000 Healing over time/s and take 20000 damage over time/s?

[karmic osprey]

I see the backpack give away announced a while a go but i'm still not receive it yet , may i ask the condition to get it ?

[placid plinth]

It only applies while focus is active

[placid plinth]

this is the main issue with the automated server selection

[fervent arrow]

Hey Mike, could you confirm pls how dungeon rewards should work in a party?

I know the boss drops the same item for everyone in the party but On Souless Arbor, for example, can only one player benefit from the Vault drops and modifiers?

[placid plinth]

It appears as though damage has a tick cadence but that's just how it's displayed, damage is actually constantly being done from many different sources. It all happens individually and in order. Healing and Damage over time effects are not combined and cancelled.

[serene mango]

do you have a personal benchmark at which point you say a certain skill or interaction is too busted and needs adjustment or is it more about how smth performs compared to the average

[placid plinth]

it's bugged and not in the game yet

[karmic osprey]

thanks for the answer

[hybrid nacelle]

Alright, thank you for the answer.

[placid plinth]

in the vault 1 player pays, that player gets full reward, everyone else gets a reduced version but don't have to pay

[tight cedar]

Is there a projectile limit on screen in MP such as too many flurry arrows?

When any ability from tree, gear, idols is procc’d is the baseline expectation that the mana cost is consumed unless stated?

[fervent arrow]

OK ingjink it would be cool if each player has the option to pay and benefit from the run. So will add that to the feedback channel at some point.

Thanks!

[placid plinth]

not really, we look for standout builds that cause gameplay patters that are tedious and/or unhealthy. We look for builds that completely eclipse other options. For now in early access, it's much less tight.

[primal girder]

Is player 1 the party leader, or whoever spent the key?

[placid plinth]

no
yes

[fervent arrow]

Also as a different example, assume soul gambler everyone can use as all players pick up the souls

[placid plinth]

whoever gets to the UI

[cursive plover]

is there a limit to how many bees we can have as summons?

[placid plinth]

yes

[placid plinth]

technically yes but you'll never hit it

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

[fallow cape]

a known issue list would be helpful. random user named forum entries arent helpful to find out if sth is a known issue. it would make it easier for people like me and AsHie for example to make the effort of reporting stuff that isnt a known issue already.

[solemn musk]

Hey Mike, you talked about hotfixes comin out soon, is there an ETA for them?

[lilac kayak]

Now that online is here, how do you feel about embracing character editing in offline? Offline could become what Path of Building is for PoE, only 10k times better since you can actually go and play a build you theory-crafted.

[solemn musk]

that would be the only reason why I play offline

[mint spoke]

How does Wandering Spirits reveal rate/duration work? For example it says it reveals 13 spirits over 6 seconds. Is that ~2 per second (so increasing reveal rate through nodes like Thin Veil increases spirits spawned overall) or is that a flat 13 (so reveal rate just pops the 13 out sooner)? Also, there's a line "but all remaining spirits fade once the reveal duration ends" but they don't all just poof after 6 seconds as far as I can tell, so what does that line actually mean? Does a spirit spawned towards the end of the 6 second reveal not last its full duration?

[solemn musk]

I think it's a great idea, especially since getting actual numbers for things to theorycraft seems hard in this game

[sly dirge]

any idea when this patch is coming today?

[lilac kayak]

Last Epoch Tools at some point sported saving your build as a toon, but then got disabled since it's against EULA. But you can't really prevent someone going with the text editor and changing the stuff. So, like that Roman proverb: can't beat them - join them. 🙂

Content creators can actually add a file to their video / guides. As in, here is my toon, import into offline and see if you like it!

[quasi crown]

are there classes that can dual wield? if so what weapons

[tropic basin]

Yes. Depends on the class. All on passive trees, you can check passive trees here: https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/

[quasi crown]

hmm it says dual wield but.. is it only 1 handed weapons? or can it be two handed

[sly dirge]

....

[tropic basin]

No dual wielding 2 handed weapons

[harsh pilot]

when we stop wait 5 mins for every loading on location in online mode?

[unborn tulip]

is this how arena is suppose to work, cuz it doesnt make sense that i get nerfed that much in arena

[tropic basin]

There is a monster damage reduction based on monster level. Dummies are level 1. That is how it is supposed to work, yes.

[placid plinth]

no eta

[placid plinth]

sorry, no comment yet

[unborn tulip]

of course why wouldnt that be how it worked, its not like that makes it basically impossible at high lvls but okay

[placid plinth]

increased reveal rate increases the overall revealed
each lasts its full duration regardless of when it was revealed

[placid plinth]

sorry no

[solemn musk]

ah ok, thank you!

[worthy mirage]

Just to clarify, Mike, do you avoid commenting because the official stance on this matter is still being settled on?

[barren knot]

Mike are you guys still on the fence about putting up a server in South Africa?

[placid plinth]

yes, different for each class, see the passive trees for nodes which enable it

[mint spoke]

Awesome thanks for the clarification! Really enjoying seeing all the progress you guys make every time I boot things up

[velvet prawn]

Hey Mike, is there any eta for a potential Lagon hitbox update that would fix the issues of some skills not being able to hit him (think its a longtime acknowledged issue)?

[placid plinth]

I don't have information on the status of existing bugs.

[harsh pilot]

30 seconds before every loading. every get there?

[placid plinth]

yes

[severe vortex]

is it intended for set items to ever get lp in the future or some sort of overhaul in general?

[unborn tulip]

Why tho, why make it borderline impossible for higher lvl characters

[placid plinth]

because I have no idea what the official stance is or if it even exists or not

[placid plinth]

yes

[placid plinth]

no

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure what your question is but if that's what you're experiencing then that's what is happening?

[marsh shore]

I'm not entirely sure if its a bug or not. But having very high amount of Minion Health Regen combined with the item Abberant Call, doesnt seem to do any for the life uptime of Wraiths, one would imagine they'd stay alive for longer, even with constant % of current health burn. Is this an intented mechanic to prevent permanent uptime on wraiths?

[placid plinth]

we don't plan to give them LP, we know they aren't satisfying yet

[placid plinth]

it's all balanced around this already

[barren knot]

Can you point me to who I need to give a succy for this to happen

[harsh pilot]

it happening every time when i enter in any location woth my mate in online mode

[placid plinth]

if you think you found a bug, always please just report it without checking here first. the health degen on a wraith is increasing so no amount of health regen will ever save it in the long run but it can slow it

[dense helm]

It just takes time to load in. Happens to me too. They are still working some things out.

[placid plinth]

ok, what's your question?

[marsh shore]

oh so its intented then. Aight and i will do so in the future. Thanks for the answer

[harsh pilot]

and sometimes we lost minions track, and load after death on other place not in location thats need relog to game

[placid plinth]

please do not report bugs here

[stray marsh]

How do mirages work? Do they mirror your damage and skills/skill passives?

[harsh pilot]

why so long?)

[severe vortex]

are there plans to overhaul gold sell value for items to normal vendor or do you like items being in a spot where the only real value is using or disenchanting for shards?

[placid plinth]

because there is a problem

[placid plinth]

wellllll technically they are just an extension of you so yes

[placid plinth]

no plans #suggestions-and-like-to-see if you got em

[solemn musk]

Oh @placid plinth , I was wondering if Rift Surge (Lightning Damage leech) not working with fireball converted with Liath's Machinations was intended or not? I'm treating it as a bug and reported it, but wonder if I'm just wrong with how I read the ability

[lilac kayak]

I'm getting quite exited about the offline mode being the testing ground for the builds. Combine that with a button in online 'make an offline copy' and you have a powerhouse of a feature, that will put Last Epoch miles ahead of the competition! Also when submitting bug reports, you can say please take a snapshot of your character by making an offline copy and exporting it. And then testers can actually import that toon and see the bug for themselves!

[placid plinth]

I have no idea, please report all bugs on the forums

!bug

[fiery lily]

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

[dense helm]

@placid plinth I have a follow up for that, what is the difference between a shadow and a mirage? will they behave the same, or just different entities?

[solemn musk]

Yeah for sure, I already made a bug report, I was just curious if you knew offhand for some reason if that was expected or not

[placid plinth]

mirages are specifically for lethal mirage

[severe vortex]

just wanted to know what the intent was

[obtuse osprey]

Hey, can we still expect the hotfix patch toxday ?

[pine dome]

Hi Mike, I was wondering if the echoes as a VK sharing our crit chance?

And do we leech from them?

[quasi crown]

oh hey question. so when you user glyph of ascendance, can you get items not your lvl... like im trying to get a lvl 81 dragon staff... should i be 81 before using them?

[placid plinth]

if the test that is running goes well, probably

[placid plinth]

yes, no (not sure, #❔┃ask-the-community would know better on the leech thing)

[harsh pilot]

and i hope it will be fixed on closer hotfix?) or better to play in offline mode before it?)

[placid plinth]

I have no information on the status of bugs

[stray marsh]

Do they only mirror the skill that they were proc'd with, or any skill I attack with after they proc?

[placid plinth]

any attack which they can mirror, they can't mirror all of them, for example, detonating arrow.

[stray marsh]

Damn lol, how would I know which skills they can use?

[placid plinth]

pretty sure it says in the tooltip? (all non-channeled melee and throwing)

[marsh shore]

Is there any discussion in regards to salvaging(I.e increasing FP through a method or very rare rune) an item that already reached 0 Forging potential in the future? or is it very adamant that when an item hits 0 FP, its a "it is how it is"

[quasi crown]

when you use glyph of ascendance to get uniques... do you have to be the lvl of the unique you want or higher to get a chance at it?

[placid plinth]

we have no intention of adding a method to the game which, given enough resources, makes an item have infinite FP

[marsh shore]

sweet. I like that

[placid plinth]

that's what I thought but I've seen many people reporting otherwise, I'm not sure if this is a bug or intended.

[stray marsh]

I was looking here, but couldn't find the original tool tip for mirage. Thank you for the clarification!

[placid plinth]

mirage and shadows are different. mirages are temporary, do what they say and poof

shadows sit there and wait to mimic the next ability they can

[stray marsh]

Are shadows restricted like mirages for skills?

[hasty moat]

Can i give my friends items?

[magic flax]

Is it known the issue that there's rubberbanding while moving in certain instances?

[placid plinth]

if they were in the game when it dropped, yes

[placid plinth]

what? mirages just do what they say and poof
shadows sit and mimic the next non-channeled melee or throwing ability yo uuse

[placid plinth]

if you think you've found a bug, please go to the forums

!bug

[fiery lily]

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

[scarlet flume]

If it doesnt specify the ignite chance being for melee, ranged, skills or anything it means it is for all sources?

[placid plinth]

yes

same as the item affix

[trim tulip]

is reaper form gonna get a visual rework like bear form did? it's the same since 2 years. i personally think it's ok, but the 2 one-handed schytes look kinda goofy. especially since acolyte can't dual wield

[placid plinth]

yes (technically reaper form, preview is available on a forum post, no I don't have a link)

[trim tulip]

sweet

yes, reaper form

[stray marsh]

Just wanted to know if shadows are restricted to just melee and throwing as well. Which it appears they are. I don't have any experience with either and wanted clarification before specing 🙂

[placid plinth]

mirages don't mimic and aren't restricted because they can't use anything

they just do what they say

[lilac kayak]

Sorry about turning a question into suggestion(s). But the "make an offline copy" button would also be a quick answer to sharing your current build since you can then proceed to use the existing tools.

[placid plinth]

#suggestions-and-like-to-see

[quasi crown]

@placid plinth sooo you suggest i wait till i get to 81 just incase

[placid plinth]

no

[stark hatch]

is there a way to search in a tab for certain tier of mods only? for example search in my exalted items tab for items that have at least one T7 exalted mod

[quasi crown]

ive gotten the same two staffs multiple times, but not the one im looking for

[placid plinth]

no

[placid plinth]

make sure it's not a boss drop

[karmic sluice]

I believe this is the forum post Mike was referencing https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/dev-q-a-weve-sprung-a-leak/49707 there's a rotating 3D model of the Reaper form, here's a screenshot

[stray marsh]

So in this instance in the l "Puncture" skill tree, the mirages will briefly attack with Puncture?

[placid plinth]

@trim tulip

[placid plinth]

yes, it's a thematic way to say, puncture is wider

[trim tulip]

really nice. hope it won't hold any weapons, as.. melee lich is kind of a meme build

[quasi crown]

ohhh.. boss drops are different? it says Emperor of Corpses

[placid plinth]

each timeline boss has 3 items that only it can drop

[severe vortex]

what would you say is the average resist/armour normal/rare/magic/boss monster has throughout the game? i dont know where to find this info but would be great to know for build planning

[placid plinth]

0

[quasi crown]

omg

ive been doing it >.<

[severe vortex]

oh so all mobs are just 0 armour 0 resist?

[placid plinth]

ya

unless they say otherwise

[severe vortex]

[placid plinth]

like scorpions in the desert in the campaign will say "resists fire" or soemthing

[severe vortex]

can dr from armour go negative?

[placid plinth]

yes

otherwise armor shred would suck 99% of the time

[feral surge]

I have a followup question to that: Will negative armour amplify each damage type equally, or does it also amplify physical damage more than others (basically, does the 70% effectiveness against non-phys still apply to negative armour?)

[placid plinth]

physical/non-physical still applies like normal

[dusky pollen]

Is there a timeline as to when the first hotfix comes out (in the next days, week, or weeks) or does it come out when it comes out?

[placid plinth]

ideally we are hoping for today sometime but we don't have a set timeline, it will happen as soon as we are confident it's not going to make things worse

[trim tulip]

just one more question: is soulfire bastion gonna more accessible? or atleast the source of keys not "random". maybe just like arena nodes on echoes

[quartz pendant]

Follow up question to the 0 armor/resists. Why is it that I do less damage to (non-boss, non-rare, no "resists x") enemies in empowered monos than I do low level enemies or the training dummy?

[placid plinth]

no plans to at the moment, personally I find that by the time I'm into empowered, I've generally got a ton of all of the keys

[placid plinth]

no idea

[pine chasm]

Enemies have %DR based on level.

[tropic basin]

It is the monster DR

[placid plinth]

omg lol yup, totally forgot

[sweet trail]

will we get p2p multiplayer?

[quartz pendant]

right, that makes sense, do we know what the DR% is at lvl 100?

[placid plinth]

no, we have no intention of adding p2p systems.

[rugged frost]

I sent you a DM about this. Also, I am doing a giveaway on my twitch for a copy of Last Epoch and was wondering if there was a way I could get the word out here.

[kindred peak]

follow up question, why is region selection not manual

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure what the full list is, it is selecting the server which you are currently receiving the best ping from. I know this is frustrating but we have looked into it and it is currently working correctly

[kindred peak]

i crash if i let it decide for me

i am not sure why

[desert imp]

Mike, is it true armor is meaningless once you have 100% block chance? Because all incoming damage would be reduced by block effectiveness only? Or do hits get reduced twice, once from block effectiveness, then once from armor?

[strange tusk]

I assume that Shift stutter-stepping wasn't included in this hotfix?

[cobalt yoke]

I am always connecting to EU West , when I am from SEA, I can party with my friend to get good ping , but I cant play solo

[real night]

I responded, I apologize for the delay - I received an influx of these messages over the weekend, and I've been working through them.

[placid plinth]

it is not true, armor still applies

[desert imp]

ah ok ty.

[placid plinth]

I haven't read the notes yet, is it in there?

[strange tusk]

Nope, Shift is not listed.

[placid plinth]

then no

[strange tusk]

Got it, thanks.

[open compass]

Does the amount of kill (stability gauge) affect the crystal reward, the chest reward or both?

[rugged frost]

No worries at all. I appreciate it!

[nimble smelt]

If you play Vilatria's Set and convert Metor to Lightning, does this convert Craterborn as well even if it does not say it or not ? If not, is it planed to be changed to work with this conversion or not ?

[placid plinth]

the chest reward scales on the same thing as the bonus stability but isn't capped at the same point

[tropic basin]

That is interesting. Any plans to add an indicator for that?

[placid plinth]

No plains? about that? game go action this form random server soo?

[nimble smelt]

Done 😉

[placid plinth]

I have no information on it at all other than it is currently selecting the server with the lowest ping available at that time.

[scarlet flume]

tyty that will do it, not in my head after all

[dreamy snow]

I know its been asked a lot but do you guys have any eta on when the rubberbanding will be fixed or if there is anyway to fix it myself that i don't know about. It's quite frustrating atm and its making me want to not play

[viral stream]

hey, you guys looking into reworking lagan (after all the high priority fires are put out, of course)? Even when nothing goes wrong it's definitely my least favorite boss fight, and I don't think I haven't experienced some sort of bug when fighting him

[serene mango]

when would you ever want to use reflect damage? does it scale with phy dmg or anything else to make it worth, havent seen too many uniques scaling that damage reasonably

[placid plinth]

not eta

[placid plinth]

no, thanks for the #368968647114227723

[placid plinth]

it doesn't scale

[potent forge]

When the servers are stable and no bugs happening with characters etc, is there plans to cut down the initial loading times when changing zones when playing in a party?
Seeing since it's a party issue, it would seem like the service is having a hard time getting the party on the same server(?)

[harsh pilot]

how to do if after kill lagoon i can speack with him?

[thick pasture]

is multiboxing allowed?

[rich sparrow]

Does the winds of fortune blessing also apply to set items?

[placid plinth]

we are working on that already

[placid plinth]

I'm sorry, I don't understand. the campaign quest state should automatically advance.

[valid matrix]

Sending you good vibes Mike, you've been doing great for the last week, rest will come eventually!

[placid plinth]

don't think so but I'm not sure what that is

[harsh pilot]

when i kill lagon - i must get blessing - but when i speak with him he dont open portal to town

[rich sparrow]

its the blessing that increases unique drop rate

[placid plinth]

no, set items are not unique

[serene mango]

is "x% reduced dmg taken on block" pretty much flat block effectiveness?

[rich sparrow]

are there plans to add a blessing to buff set item drop rate to match this blessing?

[placid plinth]

in the campaign, when you see the large lagon symbol appear on screen after beating him, that's the blessing

[placid plinth]

kinda

[distant rover]

Will auto Rune and Shard pickup be a thing in the future? Or something that wont happen?

[placid plinth]

I'd be very surprised if we didn't put it in but did put a unique one

[placid plinth]

we don't have plans for it at this time

[distant rover]

aw ok thanks

[hoary frigate]

if we have Cooldown Recovery Speed While Transformed affix in LE does that mean that regular Increased Cooldown Recovery Speed doesn't work for Transformed forms?

[spare jasper]

With Assemble Abomination, is quantity the only factor? If I get Dread Phalanx in the Summon Skeleton tree, would that actually do me more harm if I want to use AA?

[mortal forum]

hi devs, the bug that causes Flame Reave to not consume stacks and still do more damage, is it fixed? or is there an ETA for it?

[placid plinth]

different types add new abilities that it can use, that's the only effect different types have

[placid plinth]

no information on bugs here at all

[mortal forum]

alright

[rich sparrow]

are there plans to increase the number of uniques and set items? It feels like there just aren't enough

[placid plinth]

not at the moment, you can post #368968647114227723 there though

[haughty dagger]

is there any plans to make zones persistent, so they don't reset every time you leave or portal

[placid plinth]

eventually we would like to have that

[quasi crown]

is there something on the site that explains Legendary potiential more in detail... i kinda dont get the guide

[delicate quartz]

Question about this node. Does the frequency scale with cooldown recovery speed or target acquirement area scale with increased area for area skills?

[placid plinth]

there is a forum post announcing it with info on it. What are you getting?

[placid plinth]

no

[quasi crown]

well i got this

[placid plinth]

so you need an exalted 2H staff to combine it with

[delicate quartz]

Welp, that's a build going to trash then. Sad

[quasi crown]

exalted is purple, does it have to be same type of staff?

[craggy kiln]

Since you can open your forge and craft anywhere at any time what's the point of the forge in town and the quest that wants you to specifically click on it? It seems a bit redundant

[mortal forum]

I guess it's to ensure newbies use it

[feral surge]

The point is showing new players the forge exists and getting them to try it.

[placid plinth]

any purple 2H staff

[plucky crane]

Any chance we get to have our mana bar above our head as well at some point?

[mortal forum]

If a skill is triggered by another skill, does the triggered skill have to be on your action bar?

[plucky crane]

Can answer this, no it does not

[mortal forum]

And also, if a skill is autocast thanks to passives on its own tree, again must it be on your skill bar for the autocast to work?

[plucky crane]

You can even spec into a skill without having it on your bar

[mortal forum]

Oh super

[placid plinth]

yes

[craggy kiln]

I'm pretty sure that there is a tutorial for it and it's shown way before the quest

[placid plinth]

yes, but that's why

[mortal forum]

@placid plinth any idea on this please? Just want to be 100% sure

[placid plinth]

yes, the answer is no

[quasi crown]

alright i read over the post and get how they are added... if it has only 1 Potential will it always move over the exalted purple stat? or is it random from the 4?

[mortal forum]

Awesome, thank you

[placid plinth]

no, random (I know it's a big read but it does say that if you need to reference it again)

[pearl kite]

Do you guys plan on making it so you can only see chat of people with the same character flag as you? IE hc can only see other hc players in chat. Thanks.

[placid plinth]

no, lfg is split like that though 9or should be at least)

[quasi crown]

so the basis is... i prob wanna shoot for staffs that have mostly affixs i want

[sturdy elbow]

Hi @placid plinth, quick question. Does the poison dots that are applied by you minions scale with minion damage or your own damage (poison dot that is applied by your pets standing inside your aura of decay with the plague bearers node)

[placid plinth]

yes

[eager wave]

I Dont really know if this is a Bug, Visual Issue, Or maybe i am just not understanding something... But i've been playing as a Forged Guard with going the Forge Army Build with Forged Weapons and Manifest Armour.. I've been playing it for the Past few Days now, But i have NEVER once seen the Forged Axe's form.. Am i miss understanding something?

[placid plinth]

only minion stats affect minions

[quiet shoal]

any way to get the coordinates for a map section to report a bug?

[sturdy elbow]

Thanks

[placid plinth]

no

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure, sounds like a bug

dang - the Malj'Elkan catacombs has a section where there is no path to a chest and a nopath to a gold drop :/ (Like an invisible wall or something the game thinks is in the way)

[eager wave]

Thanks @placid plinth If i don't see a post for one, i will create one at least!

Yep I'm going to report it

[velvet leaf]

The "chance on hit" mod on idols can only activate once per cast, even if your cast/attack has multiple hits. Is there any chance we can get more hidden info displayed on stats?
Like cooldowns, how often things can activate etc

[placid plinth]

this is only true if the effect has a cooldown. alt will show more info if needed

[velvet leaf]

When you hold alt over the mod, the cooldown or more info is hidden on idols

[steady ridge]

can rain of arrows (the passive skill) proc an icicle from reign of winter?

[craggy kiln]

Is the chance for a critical success during crafting static? If yes then what's the chance?

[karmic crest]

Will the time travel tunnel loading screen make a return in a future patch?

[placid plinth]

post the node? I think it says bow attack but I'm not sure

[placid plinth]

yes, I'm not sure, something like 5%?

[placid plinth]

if we can make it work more cleanly, probably

[feral surge]

How big is the effect of the "focuses on attacking players" modifier? With how threat works, I assume it's just a "pretend players are closer" kind of thing?

[placid plinth]

ok so what's arrow storm's trigger?

[placid plinth]

yea, that's how it works, it's pretty noticeable. To the point where your minions would need to be pretty far away from you and the enemy for the enemy to target them instead

[feral surge]

Good to know, thank you Mike!

[trim sparrow]

Seems like the last patch bugged out the Lagoon quest, just kileld him twice and the Portal dosn't spawn.

[autumn canyon]

Was just coming here to ask about this. My campaign is stuck on receive his blessing and I'm not sure what to do

[opaque falcon]

is mana spent gained as ward not working on trigger a bug or is it intended

[warped temple]

Hello guys, any idea why i can't forge anymore despite having enough forging potential and 28 mana shards left ? I'd like to seal an affix (aim for mana) and pump some vitality on it but I can't. Apologies if I post this in the wrong section, I'm unsure.

[placid plinth]

you don't have a modifier item in the main slot (the big button tells you what's missing)

[warped temple]

mana is greyed out. I might be doing something wrong, but I cannot select anything besides runes

[opaque falcon]

i just dont know if its a bug or intended so i am asking before doing so here since no one ingame seems to know

[placid plinth]

you're out of mana shards, (that's a different mana shard)

[placid plinth]

I don't know, I'm sorry I can't be answering this question because that's all I would do all day for everyone

it also doesn't matter because even if it is intended, we would still really like a bug report

[warped temple]

Wow, I didn't figure that out ! Thank you so much for your time and sorry

[placid plinth]

look at the icon

[warped temple]

yeah indeed, now I see it. and + =/ %

thanks a lot Mike

[steady ridge]

bow attack with a 10s cd

[cunning dragon]

Whats the deal with my void knight getting reduced resistances while spinning (Warpath) even though I have +5% to all resistances relic?

[placid plinth]

ok, so if you hold alt on the weapon, it will give you a tooltip for the ability it is triggering, does that have the bow tag?

[steady ridge]

will check when i get home, i just didnkt know if the game had a procs dont proc procs rule, and its really hard to visually see if more icicles are going out

[placid plinth]

sounds like it might be a bug?

-30 + 5 = -25, looks to be working correctly

[placid plinth]

oh lol, I thought you meant you wanted to trigger rain with icicles, not the other way round, well, either way, check the tooltip for rain

[cunning dragon]

oh shit, thats why only some are reduced then rofl, ty

[steady ridge]

how does one see tooltips for triggered skills like rain and icicle? is it on the weapon?

[placid plinth]

hold alt

[wheat hill]

does cooldown reduction lower cooldowns on procs such as this one?

[swift wagon]

does this work if you convert wolves to squirrels?

[placid plinth]

yes

[magic flax]

How much is the area of the "Nearby" of Beastmaster's passiven node "Ursine strength"? It gives -2% damage taken from enemies per point, but it mentions "nearby enemies".

[placid plinth]

no

[placid plinth]

look at the ring around the training dummies, it's a little less than that

[magic flax]

oh ok! so about the old bastion of honour 6 meters..

[placid plinth]

yea
