[rocky solstice]

what you mean, if you could so kidly explain?
also i want ot make sure im clearly explaining my self lol, cause my ps4 controller triangle square x and O so is there and option in game to show those button in stead of the X,Y,B,A

[jaunty dune]

There's been a lot of talk about the strength of health vs ward, how does the team feel about the balance in strength of armor vs dodge?

[crude plover]

Ah thought you meant the actual control scheme. Unsure if there's any way to change the prompts in-game

[dusky rock]

Can we have some performance improvements/fixes for low end hardware (steam deck/handheld devices). I would love to run the game at 1080p, stable 60 with everything on ultra low quality. Just smooth gameplay nothing more to ask.

[desert sleet]

We're always making gradual performance improvements each patch where we can and Season 2 will be no different! There's been a lot of focus on improving performance for Season 2 in many different areas of the game. I can't speak to exactly how that will manifest on specific devices/hardware, but many of the performance improvements we've made should be generally applicable.

[true sigil]

ok so I did not write it down but I am 99% sure that 90% of the nemesis I fight are poison or blood, I cant remeber the last time I have seen the lightning nemesis and maybe 1 out of the last 20 was frost? Is that wanted this way or is it just crazy statistical outlier?

[placid plinth]

It is possible that you could only ever see poison/blood and never see any others. I would urge you to start recording it for a bit and see how the stats shake out. Don't forget that it doesn't change if you empower.

[true sigil]

I allready thought about making some stats about it.. 😄 And yes I am aware that it does not change after empowering 😛 tho I really need to stop playing now because I don't want to burn out before the new cycle.. just wanted to try some builds and now im stuck pushing cor cause i have to much fun 😦

[tawdry pilot]

Is there a chance for bigger camera zoom? Playing Epoch on 4K monitor is painful on such zoom in.

[placid plinth]

Not in Season 2

[tawdry pilot]

Just the thought that you want to change it is enough for me. Thanks!

[jaunty dune]

does the nemesis get stronger when you empower it?

[placid plinth]

I'm sorry to have (accidentally) mislead you. I do not want to change it. If you would like us to consider it for the future, you can place it in #1210282176680169562 . It has a very low probability of happening. The entire game world is built knowing that the camera can't go out any more than it is. We would have to go back and check every single zone with several characters to find issues that cropped up from it. So even if we did want to do it, it has a very poor cost/benefit ratio which places it low on the list if it made it onto the list (which it's not).

[placid plinth]

yes

[jaunty dune]

did the team ever consider having the nemesis "equip" the items it's going to drop including inheriting the upgrades? I imagine it'd make those fights wildly swingy but would be quite cool thematically. - though i'd guess it has a similar issue with equipping gear as forge guard minions

[tawdry pilot]

Ah ok, that’s sad to hear then 🤣 I get why it stays that way.

[placid plinth]

yea, that was the original pitch

[amber hill]

Is there any plan to make nemesis basetypes more common in 1.1 ? Really hard to get one with mods you want.

[placid plinth]

It's a hard question to answer. Kinda? If that's what you're after, you'll have more tools to get it but I don't think we are adjusting the relative rarity of the base types themselves. (assuming you meant the harbinger base types)

[signal sage]

are there pans to optimize the game a lot more? i have a 4070 gpu and a i7 cpu and im playin torment warlock alone and running at 40-50 fps with all graphic setting to very low... it feels terrible

[rich basin]

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

[neon merlin]

Hi, GGG has released a statement about banning accounts using the mod to add support for resolutions wider than 21:9 in their games. I just want to confirm if Last Epoch will continue welcoming users of 32:9 resolutions moving forward. The support for 32:9 resolutions is great and fills me with joy when play it. Thank you!

[hollow agate]

Hello 👋

Often gamer fans (including myself) who are on discord or reddit tend to forget the reality of gamer population.

Out of curiosity about statistics of the game for season 1 what is the reality :
do you have access to a player rate that has reached empowered monolith that you can share?
Reached 300+corruption ? Leveled a character up to 100 lvl? And managed to slain Aberoth?

[crude plover]

People who reach empowered have historically been sub 10% and that's generous. Unsure about season 1 but I doubt it suddenly went above 10%.

I doubt aberroth is even 1%
#👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs message

[rancid sand]

heyo is season 2 be more "friendly" to non crit based builds

[crude plover]

you won't get answers for stuff like that here, sorry. (by stuff I mean balance changes and additions that haven't been announced)

[latent storm]

Hi! Will you guys tease us a little bit more this month before release, content wise for S2? 🙂

[flint bloom]

Every friday in march they are doing a podcast which will likely tease stuff. And they always have a hype week

[dark frigate]

for the schedule on which podcasts they will be this month #👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs message

[hollow agate]

Yes i wanted to know if there were new number.
At release, lots of people probably bought the game tried without success the first week due to sever problems and never come back. Or try a few hours then give up, that is just normal at big release.

I think season 1 is more what we could expect un the future with more people that are truly interested in the game. That's why updated numbers could be instructive because in the subset of people that came back to the game knowing how far do they went, seems interesting imo ?

[plucky cape]

With the dungeon overhaul system, would LP no longer be tied to spamming Lura runs? or is that still classified 😛

[crude plover]

Dungeon overhaul?

[plucky cape]

well it says dungeon improvements on the flyer lol, along with 'tombs' and 'cemeteries' I just wonder if there's an alternative to lura jura upcoming. I like choice.

[somber marten]

If there is, it’s not known yet

[marble socket]

Hi everyone! Devs, do you have an estimate of when the Season 2 material (logo, backgrounds, etc) will be available in the Media section of the website?

[crude plover]

@real night

[humble axle]

Good morning, has the idea of allowing unique items show their name on the UI ground tag been considered or would that become a visual mess cluster?

[jaunty dune]

Soon™️?

[pine dome]

I am sure Mike answered that before with smth along the line of
We want player to choose whether if they want to pick the item up or no

[cursive sparrow]

will we get a new unique idol in s2?

[humble axle]

alrighty then thank you

[icy stratus]

Can you use WASD + Click to move at the same time in S2? Is it possible to rebind Click to move to something other than LMB? (PoE2 has it implemented so badly, you have to go to options to enable Click to move, even though they have the action bindable to other keys/buttons)

[placid plinth]

This has always been a hotly debated topic. We very much like having ultrawide support in the game. It's tough to predict if some abuse case could show up or not but we would try and solve that before trying to remove ultrawide all together. It's a tricky thing because you can get into a situation where specific specialty hardware can become important and having recommendations to buy an ultrawide monitor if you want to play the game wouldn't be ideal. The extreme example of this is VR games needing a headset. It's fine if the game starts out that way but it would be a pretty huge rug pull if we added in that requirement part way through.

[placid plinth]

I'm sorry, I don't have that information available to share.

[placid plinth]

we are mindful of non-crit, hit based builds in adding new content to the game. I don't want to say it's going to be amazing because crit is still very strong

[placid plinth]

podcast with raxx and ziz starting in 2 hours

[placid plinth]

Creating a legendary item is only available as the reward for completing the temporal sanctum dungeon

[placid plinth]

yes

[placid plinth]

not that I know of

[placid plinth]

yes and yes (already on live)

[cursive sparrow]

A mandatory season question, assuming u guys are more or less done with changes and just polishing/bugfixing now. What is Mikes starter build for 1.2?

[placid plinth]

Heartseeker is the new hotness

[cursive sparrow]

ofc its rogue! i knew itt 🤣

[jaunty dune]

sentinel gets fully rebuilt and marksman is the new hotness 👀

[placid plinth]

I just love marksman

[lament tulip]

im ready to get sicko mode, going marksman

[olive cargo]

What are the chances we see new weapon types before a new mastery? Higher? Lower? I ask because there aren't many ranged options besides the bow. Melee tends to feel pretty "samey" tbh.

[gentle thorn]

there's still time to include an extra +50% more damage node in its tree sneakily 😈

[placid plinth]

I would guess at the same time

[eternal zinc]

Hope 1.2 can bring fresh blood for caster weapons and break the solid status of wrongwrap 🤔

[fluid axle]

Will the Unique Boots Blood of the Exile be getting a sequel? Like Blood of the Exile 2?

[barren roost]

Can a spellblade enjoyer still be a spellblade enjoyer in 1.2?

[rancid sand]

just give it a chance to get the veterans affixes on it and call it veterans Blood of the exile (also every step you take take or heal a random ammount of health)

[icy stratus]

[teal trail]

i know the ziz livestream is going on rn, but i have a question regarding something that was mentioned there
so they said we can now have 4 affixes on idols and can craft on the with a mechanic similar to weavers will

and my question was, is there a life rework coming, because right now life idols are pretty much mandatory for life builds?
it'd be really bad if you couldn't use any of the new idol stuff because you'd want the life idols more

[placid plinth]

only 3+ size idols can be enchanted so you'll still have some 1/2 size idols that can be used to have health.

[worthy stump]

Wait when was wasd added?

[placid plinth]

the second question was Click to move to something other than LMB? That is already on live.

[olive cargo]

So as far as WASD goes, do you guys think you're open to tackling the feedback head-on to improve it and whatever changes need to happen to the game as a whole as a result if people want to cast while moving like in PoE2? I highly suspect this is going to be a BIG ask from other players.

[final cave]

Hey Mike. When you add the set item affixes, are they sealed or do they use one of the four affix slots?

[jaunty dune]

will there be a blog post / writeup after the podcast with details from the topics discussed?

[teal trail]

to put it into perspective if you max out on 1x2 idols you can have 40% increased and 160 flat life
that is more than a belt with both t7 % and t7 hybrid health
and doing that leaves only 4 1x1 slots free
i feel like they'll still feel mandatory especially for classes that dont have the 1x3 health idols

is ehg open to shifting the amount of power life idols have if players feel like they are still mandatory for life builds?

[pine dome]

#💬┃general message

[cursive sparrow]

on topic of idols, can we expect significant overhaul of affixes? or new affixes? (asking mainly as sentinel biased, but curious abt other classes too)

[placid plinth]

they use affix slots

[final cave]

Thanks Mike 🙂

[rancid sand]

wait plural?

[placid plinth]

Some parts of the requests won't be possible. We will be looking at the feedback very closely. We are releasing it in beta so that we can get broader feedback on it.

[placid plinth]

well, if you have two items, each with a set affix in it, that would be 2 slots

[rancid sand]

ok so no 2 different set affixes in 1 item?

[placid plinth]

I don't know if that is possible or not lol. I don't think we should.

[placid plinth]

some have changes, not a full overhaul

[serene mango]

can you go a bit more in detail what set affixes actually are, for example if we have a void set will those give void themed affixes on the item or just the "set bonus"

[placid plinth]

each affix shard is a normal affix shard so it has fixed stats that it gives, like Zerrick's gloves shard always applies the same 2 stats from the hybrid affix alongside turning the gloves into a set piece for zerrick's set.

[jaunty dune]

does putting on a set affix turn your item green?

[final cave]

Do the "reforged" set items have different graphics to the standard one?

[serene mango]

does turning an exalted rare item into a set item disqualify it for legendary crafting? or can we get the set shard affixes on a legendary without the set bonus

[crude plover]

Yes, it disqualifies it (you can't slam set affixes)

[placid plinth]

no (to be clear, it has the graphic of the item that it is, not the set item)

[placid plinth]

not full set green but green-ish

[placid plinth]

we are always open to balance adjustments. I think that health has been far too strong on idols for a while now

[teal trail]

do the set items have pre-determined stats you get from the shards (like a specific set item always shatters into a shard that gives that 1 stat) or do you get shards for one or all of the stats
like for example https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/items/UAzAsCYDZiA
could i choose between spell damage for dot spells, infenal shade mana cost or one of the other mods
or is it always only one of these mods pre-determined, like could only ever craft the spell damage for dot spells for example?

[flint bloom]

how soon into season 2 can we expect the LORE MASTER to come answer questions? i have TONS

[placid plinth]

lore master is not scheduled to be on the podcasts this month

[flint bloom]

yeah, but after

[placid plinth]

fixed, pre-determined. we have chosen for you

[flint bloom]

once i can actually ask the questions

[crude plover]

Thanks for choosing for me ❤️

[placid plinth]

🙂

the way that the shard and affix system works, in order to make it selectable, we would have needed to make 1 shard for every combination of stats. way out of scope

[crude plover]

Do we know who's going to be in the next podcast?

[placid plinth]

I don't think we've said yet, I know

[carmine harness]

If i used a Set shard from Sungforged Hammer does the weapon i use it on get the Sunforged hammer 3D art?

[placid plinth]

no

[crude plover]

Transmog when ong frfr 🔥 😩

[placid plinth]

when it's ready

[crude plover]

So it's being worked on? 👀

[placid plinth]

not necessarily

[crude plover]

Man

I'll take it as a yes and be happy, ignorance is bliss and all that

[carmine harness]

Did any of the sets get any buffs or changes from the current versions due to this change?

[placid plinth]

yes

[carmine harness]

sweet

[winged pebble]

From the interview: With talks about a race, is there a world where EHG could put pressure on content creators in the form of their NDA being a bit longer than after the season release from next season and onwards? Otherwise it will become a situation of who picks the right already tested build already created by someone on CT like last season.

[crude plover]

Someone is bound to leak stuff once the patch is out tbh, whether it be a content creator or otherwise

Which would almost be worse since less people would have the knowledge, making the advantage concentrated

[timid fjord]

So can the set shards only be applied to item with same base? ex. ferebor chisel shard can only be applied to daggers not any 1h melee weapon?

[winged pebble]

That seems to me like a very, very strong argument as to why CT might not be an ideal choice for the future.

[flint bloom]

bruh Mike has leaked stuff he wasnt supposed to. lol.

its just gonna happen when people talk

game would be way worse off without CT than with

[winged pebble]

But this is disingenious. Because there are games out there that are extremely good without a sort of CT program. Surely they would also be better with it but they decide not to sacrifice integrity of the game

[naive turret]

The item "Blight of Lachesis" that was showcased in the stream was cropped, is it possible to get a uncropped version? Could not see the rolls on the last stat, also was all the text visible? Did it crop out a line of text potentially?

[placid plinth]

I don't have the authority to make a call on this for the future. It's something that we do discuss. I think the general sentiment is that having the best game overall is the most important part. A race being interesting is important but it generally doesn't last that long or actively engage too many people. I almost think that races where the more info is available, the better.

Like, best case scenario is 0% info (almost impossible). Next best case is 100% (that wants to) has the info. Everything else in-between is probably less great.

[flint bloom]

entirely depends on what game type you are talking about. no balatro doesnt need a CT program. single player story games dont need CT. but arpgs do better with community input before. diablo has ptr servers. ggg is big enough and enough experience, and i know they have testers as well. games like this where community feedback is important (esp when EHG already showed they listen to feedback).

[placid plinth]

Yes, it requires the same base type. (Not the same sub type)

[winged pebble]

Understandable. Just thought its an interesting dilemma if the company wants to be a supporter of official release events. But as long as the situation is clearly communicated to the audience and the pros outweigh the cons thats good enough for me.

[crude plover]

Mike are you getting ready for this channel to be flooded around launch?

[marsh venture]

It was just the electrify chance roll and the level requirement that were missing.

[naive turret]

Thank you ❤️

[exotic bone]

Any reason it's not an open public test realm instead of CT program for selected few, outside of resources?
Also resource alone is very good reason forr me already, just wanna ask if there's anything else

[flint bloom]

🤷‍♂️ i dont know the reasons. they have talked about opening it up to new applicants soonish though

[placid plinth]

I haven't really thought about reasons past, we just don't have the time to organize a bigger program. At some point more voices isn't actually better for the state of some of the releases we send out.

also, we can send things that never get released and the NDAs are much harder to enforce when the volume goes up.

[crude plover]

Also CT servers

[placid plinth]

that too

[exotic bone]

Yeah true, much harder at bigger scale. Appreciate it 👍🏽

[crude plover]

Abberoth wasn't even tested by the entirety of CT presumably for the sake of leaks. So I feel like opening up CT would just result in them making a closed version of the CT that's basically CT right now on top of the open one anyway tbh lol

[placid plinth]

yupo

[crude plover]

Everyone thinks they're in the super secret closed testing group but there's always an even more secret one

Until it's just Judd and one player

[flint bloom]

this explains a few things you have said in the past

long live 'big boy'

[crude plover]

Those were all unrelated but you won't believe that

[gentle thorn]

For set affixes, do they have to go on the same item slot (so helm -> helm), or the exact same base (like Noble Gloves for Lich's Envy)?

[crude plover]

Item slot

[pine chasm]

Same way legendary slamming works, glove -> glove, 1h sword -> 1h sword, etc.

[placid plinth]

Some do have class requirements too, like Vilatria's Storm Crown Reforged is always a mage specific item.

[gentle thorn]

Indeed, thanks for confirming!
I didnt ask about that cause it made sense to keep them class-specific

[timid fjord]

Do the set affix have tiers? like if I want as strong as the set item do I need multiple shards and some FP? does it consume normal amount of FP to use the shard?

[placid plinth]

yes, they are affix shards

[timid fjord]

so using the new rune it would be possible to get even T7 version of them I'm excited to see the actual shards eventually

[buoyant bone]

Does the "30% of hit damage taken from bosses and rare enemies is dealt over 4 seconds instead" on immortal vice count as dot damage for the purpose of reducing it with armor applies to dot?

[sturdy ridge]

When LE comes to consoles eventually , will it also come for the Nintendo Switch as well?

[placid plinth]

No, the amount is calculated after the initial mitigation of the hit and is then dealt without any subsequent mitigation.

[buoyant bone]

got it! thanks mike

[placid plinth]

I'm sorry, I don't have any info on the potential console options we might look towards in the future.

[sturdy ridge]

Ahhh ok

[pine chasm]

Does endurance get calculated into the initial hit, or does it apply to the delayed damage? (and similarly, the affix on the gloves that gives you extra DR on endurance health)

[placid plinth]

the delayed damage is dealt without any subsequent mitigation.

[crude plover]

But If the initial hit would've been affected by endurance, but because of the 30% reduction never actually penetrated into the endurance threshold. Would endurance basically be a none factor even though it would be a factor if the gloves weren't used? This is pretty much inconsequential but interesting nonetheless

[placid plinth]

I think so?

[steel stone]

Hey mike, dothe set shards have the unique effects of the set items that arent the 'set bonus' stats? i.e for the Vilatria example, are we gonna see the lightning meteor conversion on shards 😄

[placid plinth]

Each set affix is a single, fixed hybrid affix which has specific stats from the set item. So you could theoretically see lightning meteor conversion if we picked that stat for the Vilatria's Downfall Reforged affix. Since these do have 7 tiers, we didn't pick stats like that to appear more than once per shard.

[pine chasm]

Yeah, the confusing math to know how much DR endurance should apply when hits can do normal health damage + endurance health damage + mana damage is what made me think that the endurance reduction might apply at the "damage actually being taken away from health" step rather than the "calculating damage taken" step

[crude plover]

Yeah...

[marble socket]

New top request for Season 3: MORE SET ITEMS!! 😀

[placid plinth]

it pre-calculates endurance damage right away so it knows how much total damage it's going to do already

[placid plinth]

I've been waiting for this moment

[crude plover]

People asking for more sets is an alternate reality

[pine chasm]

Interesting - thanks! 😁

[south bronze]

Super excited for the season 2 cannot wait, update is looking absolutely amazing!

Is there any chance we can get some early access to the loot filters? I assume we could make loot filters now but they wouldn't have access to the new stats I'd imagine?
While I do think Last epoch has an amazing Loot filter system I do always find it a pain point because the season just started and I just wanna blast

[pine chasm]

LE Tools is likely to be updated almost immediately when the patch notes drop, and assuming its loot filter utility works on any new stuff right away or soon after, that could be a 3rd party option

[plucky cape]

Are any of the new encounters on campaign or start of monoliths or is everything locked into endgame?

I get we needed more endgame content but some new variety on the campaign runs would be nice.

[cursive sparrow]

Whats devs thoughts on blocking lenses that are mathematically inefficient compared to double lenses, so if a person for example doesnt want to run arena prophecies its still more efficient(less rerolls) to not use blocking lenses. Its quite misleading to people who dont think too much about mechanics and will see any changes to that?

[jaunty dune]

if you spec into the "you cannot encounter arena echoes" node on the passive tree does it reroll your existing monolith web or does it just stop arena echoes from spawning in the future?

[smoky horizon]

Could you change your server share to a slow-mo forum based please? Mirror how PoE and D4 do it so we can have a comments section inside fr bumping instead of pasting recruit messages over and over again that get walled up by others.

[red urchin]

do set item affixes always give the same stats? for instance if I shatter Corsair's Blood Cowl, will the affix shard gained always be for example, Physical Penetration with Bleed + Increased Block Effectiveness or could one shatter of the Cowl give that example while another potentially gives Increased Bleed Duration + Increased Chance to Find Potions?

[marsh venture]

It just stops them from spawning in future

[marsh venture]

Champions can be encountered throughout most of the campaign too. The Weaver stuff is all restricted to the monolith though.

[pine dome]

Even the Tombs? If I am correct they are the small side zones versions. That seems like it would work in the campaign

[marsh venture]

Even the tombs. They are small side zones, but their reward structure is very tied in with The Woven Faction, which is specific to endgame. And on top of that, the way they're populated, the way their entrances are generated, and the way the client is instructed to preload the enemies for them all utilises pre-existing monolith systems, so getting them to spawn in the campaign isn't as simple as it might seem. We definitely want to explore adding procedurally generated campaign side zones in future though.

[hollow agate]

So I'm looking at the first quarter of information which could already be enough for an entire season (or a paid extension by the standard of some competitor)

Aren't you afraid that after preparing such a great, innovative and rich season, gamer's expectations for the next seasons will be too high and that everything will seem bland afterwards ? 😅
Good luck to keeping the same level of amazingness for the next ones.

[uncut moon]

Does that mean Memory Amber can only be farmed in Tombs and Cemeteries of Erased?

[placid plinth]

I can't remember the exact changes we made to it but we did address it.

[placid plinth]

This is going to be an exceptional session I think. We've developed a lot of tools to improve future content patches.

[placid plinth]

Technically no but the vast majority of it yes.

[ember topaz]

MATH PREVAILS

[red urchin]

are set affixes prefixes or suffixes? (or does it depend on the item?)

[placid plinth]

Depends on the affix, we selected which it would fit best in.

[foggy zodiac]

I know it's near impossible to change, but do you have any consideration on moving the release date a week or two, as it looks like LE new patch will overlap with PoE 2's new league?

[placid plinth]

yes, we considered it

[eternal zinc]

do I understand it right?
Items dropped by weaver faction can't be trade because the game can't identify which item you want to trade?

[placid plinth]

No, Woven Echoes can't be traded because they are not uniquely identifiable items. Some examples of other not uniquely identifiable item types are affix shards, runes, glyphs, dungeon keys, portal charms and eyes of oblivion.

these things

easy version: stackable = not tradable

[eternal zinc]

❔ ... Alright it's ridiculous that I just know what are they talking about is woven echoes. How will we interact with woven echoes?

[pine dome]

Was idols crafting the last completely unannounced surprise?
Or do you still have smth inside that massive sleeve of yours?

[pine dome]

It's showed in the trailer. You can place them in the web

[placid plinth]

yes, that was what I was referring to

[uncut moon]

3 more podcast awaits... i'm guessing more and more surprise like with Set crafting, idol crafting and keys trading

[placid plinth]

There are some smaller surprises still to come but no more new full on systems

[ember topaz]

I think we still haven't seen the Judd reddit tease on LP be properly revealed iirc

[placid plinth]

The idol crafting was especially fun because I don't think the CTs knew anything about it.

[placid plinth]

yea, but I wouldn't call that a full on system, it's part of the existing systems

[eternal zinc]

@pine dome I mean the whole process.

How am I get woven echoes?
Which rewards will woven echoes bring?
Which influence will woven echoes bring to the rank of woven faction?
Any hierarchy on woven echoes?

[placid plinth]

You can find or buy them.
Various things, including but not limited to some examples that were displayed in the trailer.
They are influenced by the Woven faction, not the other way round.
Yes, you can see 4 distinct categories in the screenshot above.

[red urchin]

if aberroth is (was?) expected to be taken on around 300 corruption, around how much corruption would it be expected to have before uber aberroth?

[uncut moon]

if u notice woven faction rank up, adds new item for sale.

best bet would be all those are in the woven NPC and have categories / tab similar to Lens (tied to woven faction rank) to be able to buy

[pine dome]

It seems it was on the CT

But anyway it's 🔥🔥🔥

[placid plinth]

We must have mentioned it because they don't have a build of it yet.

[placid plinth]

It's a very difficult question to answer because some builds will be better at doing different things. I'm not really sure what the number is.

[placid plinth]

They can also drop

[eternal zinc]

How am I buy them?
what the relationship of tomb of the erased and woven faction?
What the difference between Tomb of the erased and cemeteries of the erased?
I can remove all current arena echoes by woven echoes I get if I want?
As similar as forgotten knight, there's a pinnacle boss after I reach the max rank of woven faction for me to challenge and I need to collect something to access the arena?
Which item will I need for getting access to woven pinnacle boss?
How to get this item?
How to get dungeon charms (for I just want to kill dungeon bosses)?

[placid plinth]

I think all of this info has been answered in some combination of this channel, trailer and the podcast today.

Memory Amber (podcast)
The weaver tree can influence tombs and you can collect Memory Amber in tombs (podcast)
Tombs are procedural side zones whereas cemeteries are echoes. (trailer)
no, just future, it doesn't remove existing spawned arenas (this channel)
no (this channel)
N/A (doesn't exist)
N/A (doesn't exist)
same way you get dungeon keys (this channel, I think)

if you haven't seen the podcast from today, I strongly recommend checking it out as Holly goes into good details on a lot of it.

[eternal zinc]

weaver tree = the hierarchy of rank system in weaver faction?

[placid plinth]

what?
it's how you influence your end game activities and rewards. here is a brief shot from the trailer.

oh tank -> rank

one way to get points to place in the weaver tree is to increase your rank with the woven faction

[serene mango]

Will Uber abberoth be handled the same way as abberoth release for legacy?

[placid plinth]

I don't think so, I think it's just go for it

[eternal zinc]

How am I find tombs and cemeteries?... Or maybe I mean how to unlock woven faction yeah.

We know we need to kill a boss from lv 90 monolith to unlock forgotten knight and the portal of the exclusive area.
What will woven faction going? The same unlock way or...?

[rancid sand]

it should be earlier as the trailer shows them interacting with the fall of the outcasts mono on non empowerd with the woven stuff

[eternal zinc]

The woven tree looks like other type of skill tree because nodes have values. Do it mean I can upgrade tombs and cemeteries on my woven tree after I rank up my woven faction or something else?

[placid plinth]

get to the end of time

[placid plinth]

there are several functions that nodes on the weaver's tree can do. I have shared a few screenshots of tooltips of those on streams.

[eternal zinc]

Solved. Holy hell I understand what are tombs and cemeteries finally with @rancid sand 's help ❤️

[rancid sand]

;D

Heyo quick question im currently working on a small project to do a better dps calc tool would i be able to share it here(as in the Server) when its finished or not?

[placid plinth]

As long as it's not software which depends on or reacts to the running game. I don't see why not. Basically, if we're talking about stand alone software that you've put the data into on your own, sure. If it's grabbing info from a running version of the game, that's gonna run headlong into the TOS. Especially if it's modifying tooltips in game or adding some sort of overlay while playing.

Glorified spreadsheet ✅
DPS calc mod ❌

[rancid sand]

the most id consider doing at a later time would be using computer vision to grab stuff but i guess not then... is it possible to interact with the api that LE Tools uses to grab player builds from live servers?

[placid plinth]

access to that is still pretty sparse but you can ask. I should probably know who to ask but I don't. (support ticket is the best way)

!support

[fiery lily]

Need a hand? Just head on down to https://support.lastepoch.com/ for support articles or to reach out to us directly.

[placid plinth]

and to be clear, that API doesn't have any game data information in it. You can't ask it for the damage of all swords or something like that.

[rancid sand]

guessed that would be the case but thanks for clarifying

[lost sparrow]

How do you access Uber-Aberroth? Just an Harbinger Eye plus a checkmark or is there more to it?

[eternal zinc]

oh ok let me speak my conclusion:

About new faction coming in 1.2, here're how it work---

First, I go to the end of time, select one of monolith, select one of echo, start my farming. Tombs will spawn in these echoes randomly.
After I clear one of tombs, I can unlock woven faction.
Woven tree is the feature attach with woven faction, so I'll unlock woven tree at the same time.
Then it's time to collect woven echoes. (I don't know where to find echoes)
As I cleared more tombs, I can get many memory amber. This is a currency for woven faction only, I can use it to purchase different echoes to get different bonus.
These bonus from echoes will bring another new term, champion enemies.
Champion enemies will drop items with champion affixes (I don't know what's champion affix mean for different item types) and maybe another boss exclusive items (from echoes).
In tombs and cemeteries, I will meet new bosses and new boss exclusive items coming soon.

emmmm How am I access cemeteries then?

[rancid sand]

Cemetries are Echoes they appear on the Web randomly(can probably be influenced with the tree)

[eternal zinc]

so there's a basic dungeon and an advanced dungeon, tomb is the basic one, I can access it at the beginning and the rate of I meet that in random echoes will be more; Cemetery is the advanced one, I must push some progress on woven tree to be access with a cemetery?

[rancid sand]

no cemetrie is like an arena map it just is one of the things that exists no need to unlock(as far as i undestand this)

[eternal zinc]

so cemetery is a new type of arena? (I remember Mike spoiled a new echo icon before)

[rancid sand]

ehh not type of arena the type above arena its a new echo type

[crude plover]

Graveyard = side area in an echo

Cemetery = echo where the objective is to finish the graveyard

[plucky cape]

I’ve seen some new necro unique but are there any new uniques for beast master?

[clear tree]

is it possible to convert glancing blow chance into parry chance with the new unique Clotho's needle? That could be too OP

[eternal zinc]

When will EHG plan to let players import their offline save files on online mode freely so players can switch their offline and online classes seamlessly?

[fleet galleon]

Literally never
Would allow cheats

[eternal zinc]

About aberroth:

Current one is equal to 500c.
How much corruption will sacle with new version of aberroth and uber abberroth?

Will we get any updates on the way to get eyes like increasing drop rate, from it's droped randomly to it must drop one since regular corruption value?

[pine dome]

Will 1.2 finally allow us to go to the secret lizard level?

[timid fjord]

shouldn't be, conversion can only happen once, the glancing blow chance you convert to block chance should stay as block chance even with clotho's needle equipped. At least if I've understood the system correctly

[slate nimbus]

Secret lizard level does not exist!!!!!!!!!! (you need Mike's leg(beard) and rune of creation to craft portal)

[final cave]

Will 1.2 finally allow us to speak to the secret lizard people? Is the grole revolution upon us?

[worthy mirage]

groletariat will rise

[amber hill]

Is the set affix on rare/exalted item going to be one of the 4 mods on the item or will it be crafted as a sealed affix or an implicit or something?

[slate nimbus]

Scroll above for answers, it was asked like 100 times already

[muted helm]

@placid plinth wanted to respond to a comment you made on last week's stream. My friends and I play a lot of arpgs together, and primarily use guild systems for a group chat. This saves the need to screenshot items and post them on discord. A guild stash is nice, but the chat would be appreciated all on its own

[pine dome]

No because once you add the set Affix it is now an Exalted/Set item, ineligible for Slamming

[signal owl]

Do we have updates for MG?

[spare topaz]

Im sorry to took a peek into your guys code, but may i ask what line of code define the skill can be echoed? Seem like only normal skill from the character can be echoed, not skill from masteries. Delete if i ask wrong questions

[crude plover]

Pretty much anything covered by this description

[spare topaz]

Cinder strike with bow echoed

[crude plover]

how do you have echo chance and cinder strike? xd

[spare topaz]

I did some test and take a look how interesting your guys code, ton of mutators 🥲 i took 2 days to read all of them

[crude plover]

I mean unless you're planning on playing a skill from a different class on a void knight it's kinda irrelevant where in the code the modifier is no?

all the same, I have no clue what the answer is, maybe Mike does but idk if he'll answer

[spare topaz]

I tested all chars, most skill echoed, but i cant find what defines them can be echoed or not

[plucky cape]

are there any new uniques confirmed for beastmaster?

[marble socket]

Will each set item drops only one type of set shard, or there will be many shards with diferent stats combinations for each set item?

Ps.: sorry for my english, it's not my main language.

[crude plover]

one shard per set item

[rancid sand]

are the set shards per per set item or per set?(as in are they different)

[crude plover]

per set item

[jaunty obsidian]

How does Clotho's Needle calculate the distance from the target for procced effects? If I use Upheaval and trigger a tremor, does it calculate from the tremor location or from my location?

[jaunty dune]

same question but for void knight echoes / rogue shadows ^

[crude plover]

Either it'd just not work or be from the minion/whatever entity is casting the thing doing the damage afaik

[jaunty obsidian]

So if I cast Avalanche and triggered EQ, it'd be from the origin of the EQ and not my cast position?

[fluid axle]

3rd and 4th Idol Affixes were mentioned on the livestream - my question is are these affixes unique to the idol type (some affixes will only appear on 1x4, others on 4x1, others on 2x2, etc) or will all the available affixes share the same pool and all be available on any idol that qualifies for 3rd and 4th affixes?

[placid plinth]

the pools for these are split by size, not shape like the base affix pool is.

[pine dome]

So 3 slots and 4 slots ?

[fluid axle]

Does that mean 2x2 and 1x4 idols have the same pool?

[jaunty dune]

might be a "you have to wait til we reveal more" type question but it was mentioned in the interview yesterday that the new affixes on idols can go up to tier 7.

question is, how comparable a tier 7 idol affix would be to a tier 7 affix on gear. Do they have their own scaling? Or is it roughly equivalent values to what we could expect to drop on a ring or something?

[eternal zinc]

⬆️ want to ask Mike

[jaunty dune]

is there a system similar to LP level for WW items where some are harder to get high weavers will rolls on? or do they all have the same odds?

[placid plinth]

no

[placid plinth]

yes

[placid plinth]

they have their own scale

[placid plinth]

no info available

[humble axle]

Hello, would it be possible to get a channel for spoilers/teasers.

[crude plover]

Don't see what would make it not possible. If you'd like to suggest it please do so in the suggestion forums: #1211748630072131604 message

[humble axle]

yeah thats my bad for not putting it there, sry

[marble socket]

Will champion items be able to receive Set shards?

[crude plover]

Items dropped by champions are normal rare/exalted items with a sealed champions affix. So yes

[cursive sparrow]

Not sure how to test it, but does inevitable boots affix "less dmg while using ES" applies ONLY during initial animation and not the guaranteed echoes animation?

[jovial gull]

Will Season 2 be launched better optimized than from Season 1?

[ornate ore]

is it posible for in the future if you play in a party, that you can rez eachother if 1 person dies? now its kinda anoying when playing together in monolith and 1 person dies, he spawns in town and loses the items on the floor:(

[pine chasm]

What are the max stacks of Kismet (the buff thing on Scissor of Atropos)?

[icy sparrow]

Hey. I’m very small streamer and interested in having drops on my stream when it’s gonna be the time. Do I need to have some sort of permission from EHG? I don’t know how it works (yet), since I started in January and haven’t done drops stream

[plain spindle]

Holly mentioned it in the Dev interview with Ziz and Raxx. 8 stacks.

[plucky cape]

Missed an answer, have any new beastmaster uniques been confirmed? Only seen necro ones :/

[flint bloom]

i dont think there have been any specific "this is only beastmaster uniques" unless you could pull one from the tons they showed on the trailer. however there are plenty of uniques that can easily fit into certain BM builds. like this staff could be used with crows, or just for the +minion parts (cold/lightning wolves). just cuz it has "necro" affixes, doesnt mean it cant be used by BM in certain situations. the uber aberroth uniques could fit too (gloves and relic).

[plucky cape]

Thanks for the answer. I really hope beast master doesn’t become the new sentinel next patch as necro is just way stronger atm

[flint bloom]

i mean lich still exists so i wouldnt worry about BM being bad. lol

[jaunty dune]

8.5 months later I take it back, all 3 nemesis buttons have great use cases

[shrewd igloo]

is lich the worst ?

[flint bloom]

its a very old class that has had skills canibalized for other classes, and its build paths are pretty limited and not great synergy compared to newer classes. it has a few things it can do for endgame but its easily the worst class in the game right now.

its being worked on at some level tho, the devs know about it. just a time thing until it gets some major love

[shrewd igloo]

Does warlock compare to the newer classes? Or are they just that much better?

[flint bloom]

warlock is one of the newest classes. and the one that took a lich skill away from it

[plucky cape]

here's a hoping some new BM uniques will be shown. Otherwise it's back to the exalt farm or getting lucky with weavers x.x But to stay in the heart of the channel, if any dev wants to throw a BM minion teaser that would be awesome 😄

[gentle thorn]

we had a champion's affix teaser showing +1 companion, so you know there's stuff for BM too

[placid plinth]

I have no idea what is required to set it up. We do have a streamer program that can help you get into like this. Please open a support ticket on our support site to get in touch with the right person directly.

!support

[fiery lily]

Anything we can help with? We've support articles and a contact form at https://support.lastepoch.com/.

[placid plinth]

Maybe. Not in Season 2. We are addressing the issue you mentioned in another way though.

[crude plover]

Unique items cannot drop in an area level below their required level right? As in if an item has a level requirement of 60 it can't drop in a level 50 zone right?

[placid plinth]

Yes. Season 1 launched way way way way more smooth than the initial season 0 launch though if that's what you were referencing as season 1. (I know the numbering isn't consistent and it's confusing)

[placid plinth]

Well, we could do stuff to force specific ones to drop in specific situations but generally speaking, that's right.

[placid plinth]

It applies while your character is in the animation for it. By animation, I mean the motion that the character follows, not the VFX.

[river flume]

Hello. I live in Japan.

There is a 14 hour time difference between JST and CDT, Japan time is earlier.

According to the countdown on the official website, the release date is 4/2 am 1:00 am (JST).

Isn't this countdown progressing a day early?
Am I missing something?

[visual apex]

I haven't seen it asked yet, but in the Eterra Monthly and the trailer, we saw lightning blast chains having a short delay between each chain. Is it something that is a significant change to the way the spell works, or more of just an update to the look/feel of lightning blast to make it feel cooler?

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure what's going on with that but here is a relative timestamp that will be localized for you.

<t:1743609600:f>

[river flume]

Thank you very much!!

[placid plinth]

I don't think it got any functional delay.

[amber hill]

Had some questions on the Scissor unique, is there a stack limit on Kismet and it should work with Decoy right?

[tulip ivy]

Maybe the website is showing the time that servers will go down? Day before?

[eternal zinc]

can we skip Majiasa's dialogue when we walk to this position in 1.2? #❔┃ask-the-community message
(I remember this feedback is asked multiple times here)

[pulsar heath]

Judd said that the devs will listen to community feedback because those who spend thousands of hours playing truly understand the game.

So why not invite streamers who have spent thousands of hours consistently playing and creating content about Last Epoch—people who actually play and are genuinely excited for it?

Inviting Zizaran and Rax makes sense since they are famous, but they don’t actually play Last Epoch. Zizaran even played the wrong trailer

[placid plinth]

I'm pretty sure that the last podcast we went on was with Perry and Dread. And the one before that was Aaron and Frosty. I think those would fall into the category that you're referring to yea?

[placid plinth]

I don't know if we touched that at all.

[eternal zinc]

who's Perry and Dread?

oh sad to hear.

[placid plinth]

Thank you so much for proving my point.
https://www.youtube.com/c/PerrythePig
https://www.youtube.com/@Dr3adful

Also the last time anyone mentioned the Majasa dialogue in #1210281911872786482 was over a year ago. It doesn't seem to be a hotly requested thing. (It is something we should be making feel better because I get frustrated at it every time it happens to me too.)

They are both knowledgeable youtuber/streamers who have done a lot of Last Epoch stuff.

speak of the devil, hi dread

[glass thorn]

Yeah I will butt in here to say one thing that, it is insanely good for the game for the exposure it gets when they bring on the big wigs on. It is beneficial to everyone when they bring on someone like Zizaran because it feeds into all of us. I'd rather have the game get bigger and get more eyes on it then some random interview. Tbh I just want April to come already.

[eternal zinc]

oh lol Dread= Dr3adful... Ok, I know it now

Thanks Mike, you remind me of I should post it on sudreddit to see how many people have the same opinion :)

[inner quest]

For what it's worth I also think the Majasa thing should be skippable, it's just not that big of a deal.

[placid plinth]

Don't think anyone would argue against that

[glass thorn]

Also I will also mention Perry and I have been insanely busy individuals. Perry has another child on the way and I have a lot of content to produce.

[eternal zinc]

Details decide the product 🤷‍♀️

[placid plinth]

and I wouldn't say no to another podcast invite at some point in the future too....

[glass thorn]

Also who says I'm not already working on an official EHG project or not. 👀

[ember topaz]

To add to Dread's point, not "just" big wigs, but specifically big wigs with audiences from other relevant games. LE main creators might know more about LE, but they won't generate NEW eyeballs to the same degree, even if they were the same size. This is what LE needs to capitlize on with their pre-season news cycle. Most people who follow LE creators most likely already know 1.2 is coming, and most likely are already hype for it

[eternal zinc]

I heard Dread mentioned he want more people join in the team of content creators who specializes in le so everyone can enjoy more videos.

But personal problem is... No one can better than Dread's knowledge... You're genius, you're the top so yeah no idea how to follow you hhhh

[ember topaz]

It's a big space, Dread knows more about a lot of LE things than probably the majority of people, but then someone like Terek probably knows more about racing, I probably know more about CoF (idk if that's even true lmao), someone else might know more about some niche thing. And there's different styles that different viewers will resonate with, etc.

Plus even though it might not seem like it, Dread is still a human, can't cover literally everything alone (though comes pretty close xd)

Tbh I think this is getting a bit off topic for ask dev channel, probably better for https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/844008172640403496

[uncut moon]

Having 8k hours in the game and making daily leveling guide for just about every class - mastery there is... yeah i would think Dr3ad's ingame knowledge is one of the best content creator.

Same with FS and his Sorc. / FC Academy. I enjoy watching those just to add more knowledge on skill interaction that i never thought would be possible*. Lets not forget FS's spreadsheet too.

[limber plume]

Regarding Sentinel rework with weapons, will he be available to wield ANY 2hander with 1 hand or just some (I presume staves aren't included)?

[somber marten]

Node basically said all but staves.

[limber plume]

I did not see the reveal of that node, was it in the interview? Are some other Sentiel nodes revealed already (besides Eterra Monthly)?

[rough nexus]

Check 📌 in Sentinel channel

[mental flame]

So right now, if we stay at a certain corruption level and keep doing echo's within the same monolith, we reach a point where instead of echo's branching, it just becomes lines.

Has this been fixed for season 2?

[pine dome]

With the new > Shards go straight to the Forge < option
Do we need to have space to our inventory to pick the shards, and then they are automatically super quickly transfered ?
Or do they actually go straight into the Forge without interacting with our inventory space ?

[summer badger]

how many cycles(seanson, league) will we have in a year?

[pine dome]

[waxen fox]

Any new base affixes for the enchantable idols? so not the ones added via weavers touch but the 2 it drops with

[visual apex]

🤞 that they show some off in some of the upcoming interviews

[normal crest]

is using AutoIT script for casting skills allowed? what is the rules 🙂

[valid marlin]

I think linking to this has a hint of irony to it, considering when the message was written

[flint bloom]

Judd said on fridays dev stream the goal is still 3-4 months moving forward

[placid plinth]

Direct

[placid plinth]

Technically no but that's a misleading answer.

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure if the echo node generation algorithm has been changed to affect this but we have at least added the ability to just change it yourself with the woven echoes. They still have the same max distance from center.

[mental flame]

Can Vessel of Chaos and Memory reroll/reset woven echos?

[random hedge]

Not sure if this has already been or canbe asnwered. If I get to one the echos yhat lets me reset amd go backwards but not start hje whole web over with some additional corruption, will that reset any woven echos I have placed?

[amber hill]

Think this got missed, I had some questions on the Scissor unique, is there a stack limit on Kismet and it should work with Decoy right?

[jaunty dune]

the cap is 8 stacks, yes it should work with decoy

[terse bison]

Any chance the game will come to Playstation?

[crude plover]

There's for sure a chance it'll come to playstation someday. But weather it will or not or when that'll happen we don't know. But they are working on having good full gamepad support so that's atleast one step of the way (Game already has full gamepad support but they're actively improving it)

[terse bison]

@crude plover definitely have a following on Psn. We're all hoping one day to get to jump into this awesome looking game!

[icy stratus]

From a game design standpoint - woven echoes look like consumables with different tiers (higher tier being more valuable), resetting echo progress and not removing the used consumables would be a little exploity (you could fill the web with top tier woven echoes and farm top tier echoes over and over, no need to get new top tier consumables)
tl;dr probably not since woven echoes are most likely a consumable

[humble axle]

Good, afternoon i had a question about the DOT "torment". The question being does increasing the stat of "flat curse spell damage" say from an idol or on affix on the helmet, result in higher torment damage. To my understanding for ailment DOT dmg it is set at a base flat damage amount, and cannot increase with any relatable flat damage. For example if i understood things correctly if hypothetically I apply 1 stack of ignite and do 50 damage. And then i add 10 flat spell fire damage (nothing else changes just the addition) 1 stack of ignite will still apply 50 damage. As torment is a curse i started to second guess myself if curse flat spell damage is beneficial to torments damage. For example 1 stack of torment would do 100 damage then i add 10 flat spell curse damage is the result still 100 dmg from on stack of torment. Additionally, i understand torment can only have one stack i just wanted to keep my examples phrased the same way.

[merry abyss]

Are you working on end game behind the scenes while dropping other big patches like the next one? If yes, what can we expect to not feel like we are playing D3 for a week then leave?

[somber marten]

It does because unlike normal ailments, Torment has the "Spell" tag.

[pine chasm]

Yes, flat/added (curse) spell damage applies to torment because torment deals spell damage and has an 'effectiveness of added damage' property (it's 200% per second for torment, per the chthonic fissure tooltip). Most damaging curses scale the same way, just with different numbers and base damage.

[paper bay]

Any plans for achivments for S2?

[plucky cape]

Will I need to unlock empowered monoliths for the new faction or can I unlock it in regular ones?

[ember topaz]

^ Yea, with all the visibility beacon resetting has had in the last while I doubt the woven echos would have this vulnerability, but guess we will see

[valid marlin]

What do you mean? The upcoming patch is all about endgame

[crude plover]

Think it's safe to assume achievements aren't coming in 1.2

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

[merry abyss]

I mean parallel systems to Monos. They are very repetitive.

I'd love to have anything that scales loot as well as Monos, but are not Monos.

Two (or more) completely seperate loot grinding systems that are not similar but are similarly profitable.

Same reason people think PoE2 end game is lacking. Because maps are boring to grind endlessly. Monos are literally the same.

[visual apex]

You mean like some sort of procedurally generated dungeons? 🤔

[random hedge]

My hope is that they are innovative exciting tile sets rather then the boring overly restrictive crap in PoE2, main reason I do not play that game any more and probably won't for quite a while.

[visual apex]

My thought it that supporting parallel endgame activities with equal or unique rewards ends in one of two ways:

1. Unique rewards means players will be upset that they have to do both types of content to get what they want
2. Equal rewards mean players will hyper optimize and ignore whichever method is less efficient

So it makes a lot more sense to expand monos so they aren't repetitive and boring. It's been a common complaint that monos aren't that interesting after a while, and it sounds like they're doing a ton of stuff in 1.2 to address that. Like the weaver tree allowing you to customize your experience for the endgame is a huge boon.

[placid plinth]

I think that this might not have been clear enough, each of these 45 unique echoes are a different activity.

Some of them are similar for sure so maybe it's a little bit of a stretch to say that all 45 36 are unique I guess.

It's a lot of stuff

[waxen fox]

Was the big champion enemy next to like 4 exiled mages from trailer inside one of those?

[fluid axle]

Is it possible we will ever be able to fight Uber Lagon?

[jaunty dune]

fair to assume (based on the ui + your comment) that it's 4 different categories with variants within each of them?

[placid plinth]

No, but the 4 of many many more exiled mages were. The champion was a random spawn.

[placid plinth]

Yes. Have I heard anyone ever ask for that? No.

[placid plinth]

No, it's 4 tiers. So the ones on the right are more difficult, epic and rewarding. Like you'll see some select overlap in activities between the tiers.

[eternal zinc]

I suppose it will most more interesting 😆
Compare with Uber Aberroth I mean because this is a common timeline boss, so it'll easier than Aberroth in game. (Not everyone have ability to kill uber aberroth because it's a uber challenge)

[eternal zinc]

#1210289386252664962 message
⬆️ As the first uber boss is coming soon, maybe EHG want to think how to take care of both of hardcore players and casual players

[ember topaz]

Is the entire echo just mages? Is it possible that we could get one with a bunch of nemesis 👀

[eternal zinc]

Reward echo? I like this idea

[jaunty dune]

Clearly not JUST mages, a champ spawned too

[swift obsidian]

A little late to this but this also seems like a system that, now established, can be somewhat easily expanded upon over time with more and more?

[rigid burrow]

Hey devs! Im sorry for the bother, i know your busy for the lead up to 1.2
this conversation was going on

(ME)
Hey all, pretty excited for s2 here, does anyone know if they made any mention of having to re-do the campaign, over and over again as the form of leveling still?
(other) — Today at 5:42 PM
Probably have to redo the campaign again, unless you get lucky with key drops to do the dungeon skips as you're going, but depending on your leveling speed, there are generally always people willing to help boost people right to the Monos after the first day or two.
Unless EHG decides to remove that "mechanic" which I've never looked up to see if they consider it a bug or a feature... lol
(other) — Today at 5:43 PM
AFAIK, they mentioned being able to get idol slots/passives from monoliths. So you only gotta play untill you get your mastery.
Unsure if your -ALLOWED- to confirm or deny any changes they just mentioned
if not, no stress

[scenic basin]

will season 2 have cosmetic rewards for playing?

[strong wren]

Plot Devs: Continuation of the plot rather than being removed from time being the end of the story? Was told a few months ago it would be soon. It does not appear to be yet. Any chance of an ETA?

[quaint spindle]

We do not give out ETAs on future dev 🙂 - Also we've been very open that the story is not finished, so the existing "end" is not the "end of the story" - its the "end of the story so far" 😉

I can confirm it will not be in 1.2 / Season 2

[quaint spindle]

not at this time

[bold wedge]

Hi EHG team, is there any way to buy merch? If not, are there any plans to in the future like with supporter packs?

[flat rain]

yes, i want a EHG Mousepad, and baseball hat !!

[bold wedge]

Sorry I looked back and the last reply on physical merch was from Mike as TBD, 2/26 (~2 weeks ago). I think a lot of the community would love to hear any updates! Thank you!

[pine dome]

It's smth that's still being worked on

[worthy mirage]

but what about a Mono version of Majasa? This has to have been asked frequently enough

[eternal zinc]

Then a new monolith need to be added

[mental flame]

Or woven echo 🤔

[barren roost]

Is Steam Deck verification coming with S2?

[eternal zinc]

Do sentinel's big change mean it's possible to play forge guard with minion builds?

[pine dome]

You already can

[summer badger]

This sounds like a solid idea! My clan and I played Diablo 3 for over 20 seasons, just for the cosmetics you’d get from the seasonal challenges. Those cosmetics were account-wide, so you could use them on your characters in the next season, and we kept grinding season after season—it was a blast!

LE's endgame is already way better than D3, which was basically just running Rifts over and over. This game has insane potential, and without a doubt, it could end up being better than PoE 2 and D4!

[amber hill]

Is there any upcoming visual change for Fire aura? (similar to Aura of Decay) it covers up enemy ground effects and makes it impossible to see enemy DoT pools and void/lightning traps.

[flint bloom]

Please do not spam questions, especially when its just begging for spoilers and teasers.

[chrome bison]

when will we be able to see changes in sentinel tree?

[flint bloom]

there are a bunch of sentinel changes teased already in #eterra-monthly and pinned in #🔱┃sentinel . Anything that isnt already teased, has to wait until they tease them or the patch notes fully come out, which wont be until day or two before patch day (hopefully earlier but there isnt a time given)

[chrome bison]

didnt notice, THX

[regal stratus]

on the last dev stream, they said the new runes were going to cost 20fp. is that 20fp or 1-20 fp?

[flint bloom]

Mike, on a rough % scale...about how much of 1.2 has been teased so far?

[strong wren]

While I didn't think you would tell me, I had really hoped. The story has such potential, with the entire game being reminiscent of some of the best jRPGs to ever exist- Chrono Trigger, the early Breath of Fire games, the Lufia games- but it being not only unfinished, but ending at a simply unsatisfying point warranted me asking.

I'll look again in a few months. Hopefully there's some kind of plot movement.

Also Muffin, didn't you just say you wouldn't know an answer to that as you're the server dev?

[quaint spindle]

I dont know when it will come but I do know when it won't - and I also know our policies 🙂

[plucky cape]

Is there a chance for any upcoming unique for sabretooth, bear or scorpions?

[crude plover]

Why wouldn't there be a chance

if you're asking them to reveal something that hasn't been shown yet that's not gonna happen here

[flint bloom]

stop spamming this channel with the same teaser question

[plucky cape]

Nono, just wonder if they're getting revamped this patch or next. Since we just got a sabretooth update. BM is lacking in terms of build variety atm compared to other classes.

[crude plover]

Yes, anything that hasn't already been shown won't get revealed here

If you think you might've missed something from a stream or some other media then it'll usually get posted either in a pinned post in one of the channels or will be in the next issue of #eterra-monthly

Asking for every possible change they could've maybe made and revealed in here is not what this channel is for

[plucky cape]

So what's the point of ask the dev at that point? because anything that already has been revealed will be answered by 'ask community' and anything that community doesnt know doesnt get revealed here 🥲 I'd prefer someone on dev side to just give some insight on the BM topic is all lol.

[crude plover]

The point of the channel is asking stuff like will spark charges scale with the skill tree of flame reave if i use flame reave to apply them

the answer to that is no btw

Or asking why something was made the way it was or why certain decisions were taken

This channel is not for suggestions, feedback or asking for the devs to reveal upcoming features/content

As per the channel description

[inner quest]

Questions about existing content => You'll probably get an answer if you ask in here
Questions about future content => Those questions are generally answered in streams by Mike or announcement/news posts; not off-the-cuff in here

[plucky cape]

it's more of a phrasing issue at that point no? 'why did wolves get a unique item but why are there currently no uniques for sabretooth or scorpions, pretty much has the same effect. I see your point, but come on lads. Anyway, I'll wait till next update/official update then.

[crude plover]

because they haven't gotten around to making uniques for them? not sure what kind of answer you're looking for tbh

[plucky cape]

I'm just worried it's going to be forgotten since necro is the more popular choice is my main concern actually. but I have some good hopes since they just touched sentinel 🙂 which is why i was wondering if there's a chance this patch or wether that's something for a later date. I just love walking around with my zoo, and would like it to be viable in the new season, with some build variety options is all. xD and who doesnt love new uniques for their favorite class.

[crude plover]

Spellblade hasn't gotten a unique in years either, that's just how it goes, they're slowly going around and bringing old masteries up to date. When Beastmaster gets its turn i'm sure they'll be more open to making more uniques for it

[inner quest]

Personally I'd love to know why Shield Rush is the only traversal skill Sentinel has that actually works for general movement without allocating any skill points or using any unique items. I would love to use Lunge or Healing Hands for general movement instead, but "Lunge Does Not Require a Target" is gated behind a unique helmet, Healing Hands requires Rahyeh's Chariot necessitating specialization which isn't always possible, and Void Cleave requires both specialization and a 2H sword or axe.

[pine chasm]

tbf, both have gotten uniques recently (depending on how strictly you define things) and both have at least one coming in S2

[crude plover]

Eh to me a mastery unique would need to have atleast part of it only function on said mastery or interacts with a skill of that mastery.

obviously a lot of uniques they add are usable by a lot of masteries, some even by all

Afaik bloody nib is the most recent spellblade unique, coming in 0.8.5 which was in 2022 (Not saying every mastery should get a unique specific to it every patch or even every year, was just giving an example i'm familiar with)

[pine chasm]

That is exceptionally strict, I'd consider bane of winter and maybe black blade as spellblade uniques. BoW SS was super fun.

[jaunty dune]

is it possible to get 4lp from a single nemesis empower? or is 3 the max?

[placid plinth]

3 is the max per empower. It is possible to go from 0-4 but it has to be spread out across the 2 empowers.

[flint bloom]

is not being able to do 4 just so you dont cash out at the second empower?

[placid plinth]

I think it's just so that something can always happen to the item.

[jaunty dune]

makes sense, until I saw someone post a 3lp after 1 empower I always thought the limit was 2 per empower, 3 must just be reeeeeeally rare

[placid plinth]

depends on the item but yea, very rare

[cursive sparrow]

1)i dont think Mike answered it before but Judd mentioned time rot becoming viable, so a question related to that: If you apply stacks of doom/time rot to enemy that already had maxed out stacks will new stacks override old ones even if new one's do way less dmg(applied by weak skill)
2) will ehg allow LEtools/Maxroll update planners after patchnotes drop similarly to 1.1/1.0 so we can prepare starter builds?

[jaunty dune]

Is it the same chance to get a 3lp from the nemesis (after 2 empowers) as it is dropping the same item on the ground? Or does the nemesis have its own lp scaling?

[placid plinth]

new stacks win
I don't know but I would assume that it will be the same as the last few patches.

[placid plinth]

it has its own LP modifier so the relative rate from item to item is consistnent with drops

[placid plinth]

This isn't always the case but in general, we like to add unique items that interact with specific individual skills alongside updates to said skills. Several of the BM companions are fairly out of date skill at this point. They has received some minor things here and there over the years but need some love. Releasing a unique item which gives a narrow bonus to a skill that is slated for updates in a future patch signals to the community that now is a good time to get back into that skill when it isn't time yet.

We haven't forgotten about BM and while there aren't any new uniques which specifically mention Bear, Sabertooth or Scorpion in Season 2, there are some new toys to play with.

[rancid sand]

uhh a question in regards to forge strike kinda both current/future if possible. 1. how does it handle the scaling from weapon if you are dualwielding... 2. How does it handle the set Hammers set affix (the bonus dmg/ignite per forged weapon) does it not work at all does it only take into account the stats at the moment of summoning etc

[potent swift]

I don't really expect an answer to this, so feel free to ignore me if you'd like. But can we expect more bees in our near future?

[pine chasm]

1. Same way players do, they get all stats from each, base attack speed is averaged.
2. They don't.

[placid plinth]

near future? I think something can bee arranged.

[sand merlin]

unbeelievable

[eternal zinc]

maybe EHG is crafting a cloak with bee patterns

[brittle rapids]

or a cloak made entirely of bees

[plucky cape]

Thank you!

[valid dust]

Will we be getting some spoilers for champion/set affixes in the coming interviews? Really excited to see what is craftable in season 2.

[pine dome]

Some have been revealed in the trailer

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure the exact schedule. By the end of the last one all will be revealed.

[jaunty dune]

think this was missed - would be interested to know as well

[buoyant bone]

Are there plans for chroma style skill mtx? (Stealing the wording from league of legends) basically just inexpensive recoloring of the skill that you can buy in a pack of like 8 colors

[valid dust]

Another question on set affixes. Does the set item roll influence anything on the set affix shards (ie high roll on the stat that gets affix'ed)? Or are all set items treated equally?

[placid plinth]

Weaving is a weird case but Havoc and Redemption are 1-20. Holly was just mentioning the maximum value. For example Refinement only goes up to 15 and Removal/Shaping go up to 25. Those are the most extreme options.

[plucky cape]

Do you guys have any say on the spring sale? for example, could we see a discount when steam starts their spring? Could be looking at gifting some copies to friends ^-^

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure if we've got big bundles like that but we do have a range of scopes for skill MTX. Some are fairly straight forward changes and others are more significant.

[placid plinth]

no, all equal

[buoyant bone]

That’s understandable, thanks Mike!

[placid plinth]

We have all the say on if LE goes on sale and when. Steam does have specific times of year where we are basically offered to join the sales but we get to pick ourselves if we do it or not. I'm sorry, I don't know at all when the next sale will happen. We have participated in the various seasonal sales in the past.

[tidal obsidian]

can we expect dlss at cycle 3 as it was said in FAQ that it has not been looked at yet?

[frail sentinel]

The FAQ says 'in the future' - https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1348649727050121256 - not a specific patch.

[low peak]

Have you guys ever considered removing Glyph of Hope? It feels like it's always the default choice as the other glyphs have very specific use cases, so perhaps using no glyph should do the same as the current implementation of glyph of hope

[tidal obsidian]

does it mean that it is possible to come mid cycle 2?

[crude plover]

This would be better suited in the #1210281911872786482 . There are slight reasons why it's good to have it as a glyph even though it's practically always the one you use and you have a practically infinite supply of them. One of them being that other glyphs can't be used in conjunction with hopes.

[placid plinth]

We have considered this. We currently like having it in the game.

[placid plinth]

I guess? I wouldn't expect it though. Also we are using the terminology Season instead of cycle now.

[jaunty dune]

damn, guess my theory about that being the crafting material that is being removed in season 2 is wrong then xD

[low peak]

Thanks for the answer and congratulations on the season reveal, everything about it looks awesome! Fingers crossed for an equally great launch

[plucky cape]

Last one from me, it was mentioned the new champion enemies can be encountered in the campaign. Is there any easy way to recognise them, and how early could we theoratically encounter them?

[placid plinth]

They are visually pretty distinct so it should hopefully be easy to recognize them. They should be a significant challenge too. Their health bar also says Champion and is bigger than normal enemies.

I don't know the exact first zone that they can be encountered but I think it can start pretty early.

[tawdry pilot]

Can you tell us of ward vs life will be changes only numerically or you have something else planned. Also did you thought about adding mechanics that temporarily increase your life (for example by 1k) and it decays, or you can sustain it with high enough leech.

[dapper sage]

Hey, has there been any info released about the "scale" of the nerfs and buffs for various classes ? Im curious specifically about falconer since im preparing to speedrun the new season and falconer seems like the best option rn but since it was extremely powerful on the last major patch im not sure how comparable it will be on release.

[flint bloom]

no balance notes have been put out at all. there is no timeline on when notes will be available. hopefully a day or two before at least like previous season patches.

[dapper sage]

Okay, thanks for the quick answer 🙂 . I guess ill hedge my bets and look into other classes as well

[flint bloom]

historically, EHG hasnt nuked any builds, their nerfs are generally pretty forgiving (unless its a bugged interaction). if its strong before, it'll still be pretty strong after

[mild rivet]

thornbear was kind of nuked

[pine chasm]

Yeah, definitely nuked some builds (both intentional and not), but it's rare.

[marble socket]

I want a Set for bow... Just saying. 😄

[flint bloom]

if you have some #1210282176680169562 or #1210281911872786482 , please put them there.

[cursive sparrow]

Will we have death counter in stat window in s2 or futue?since we know it exists in game files just not shown

[dapper sage]

Falconer has some crazy number in some situations, I wouldnt be shocked if some ways to build it become collateral damage.

[flint bloom]

Oh it for sure it getting nerfed, its number are way too big. Just generally, EHG doesnt take a top performing build and put it on the bottom of the pile(unless it was unintended). It will likely still be very strong, just hopefully not obsurd.

[verbal pine]

So what you're saying is if i have a cool idea for an item then post there. Omw boss say no more!

[flint bloom]

YES! Give them all your ideas. ALL of them

[desert sleet]

I would love this always enjoy seeing if I can get to endgame with fewer deaths than my last playthrough in PoE. Would be super cool to do this in LE.

[fluid axle]

Can we expect any items that haven't seen any play since they were added 5~+ years ago to be buffed? I'm talking Alluvion, Morditas, Dragonflame Edict, I mean stuff that has been in the game forever, like 0.7 and 0.8 era, and has never been good.

[blazing hemlock]

Hi, I wanted to ask if smoke bomb not having a dexterity tag (when 100% of the other rogue skills have one) was a deliberate decision? Feels a bit strange to have a skill like that not having a stat tag at all, even if the dex scaling would be "forgettable" (like the 2% mana efficiency of shift)

[placid plinth]

well, I see that you removed culnivar's 😉

I don't have any specific info on upcoming potential balance changes. We do look for ways to bring back old items from time to time.

[mild rivet]

good thing Mike mentioned it, Culnivar's is the GOAT

[placid plinth]

yea, it doesn't have dex scaling intentionally. adding something like that makes more sense as an item to me.

[jaunty dune]

is it possible to have a crit success when crafting if all affixes are already at t5 or higher? (such as with one of the new runes). Also, is it possible when using a rune at all?

[blazing hemlock]

I see. I was surprised that traitor tongue wasn't giving any levels to it when it gives levels to everything else in rogue. Thanks for the reply!

[jaunty dune]

does rune of redemption have weighting on it's re-rolls so that rarer affixes are harder to roll into?

[desert sleet]

Crit success in the Forge can't push an affix past T5, but it can still preserve the FP cost if a crit happens when upgrading the last affix to T5.

[fluid axle]

Can redemption crit and make affixes gain tiers?

[placid plinth]

redemption doesn't ever add more tiers

[desert sleet]

Same weighting that affixes normally have, so yes. It's like the exalted affixes were dropped anew. They are having their chance at redemption Even Nemesis deserves a second chance after dropping mismatched T7 affixes 😛

[teal trail]

i have a question regarding the new amulet pearls of the swine
it makes bone curse also apply other curses, one of them being acid skin

cthonic fissure has a node called "Acidbane" that says "Your hits against enemies cursed by Acid Skin have additional base critical strike chance per 10% of your global increased poison damage."
if i have that allocated does the bone curse acid skin also benefit from this?

[placid plinth]

if you have that allocated in chthonic fissure, all of your hits against targets with acid skin, regardless of how they got it, you don't even have to apply it yourself, have that crit chance. This does mean that it is not a property of the acid skin itself and does not apply to other people hitting the targets that you affect with acid skin.

[slate spire]

How close will using existing armor as fashion be in the game? I find it a waste that we cant do it yet given how hard the art team went for some of the pieces.

[flint bloom]

Are you asking for transmog? Or MTX on character screen? Or 3d art matching 2d art?

[slate spire]

Transmog basically.
I know its planned, just dunno where you guys are at with it.

I wanna add more to the my wardrobe haha

[flint bloom]

There is no eta on it other than on the roadmap rn

[slate spire]

Aww sad
Thanks for confirming
Guess ill just buy the new pacs
Hopefully more sets that fits certain themes
I loved the void one

[jaunty dune]

Will set affixes apply to forge guard minions?

[pine chasm]

It should be like set items are currently:

• The set bonus itself does not apply
• The actual hybrid affix applies if it functions on minions (generally, simple stats work, but stuff like attributes and skill procs don't)

[ember topaz]

Can multiple set affixes be applied to the same item if they are from the same base type? Eg. The "Invoker's" set has 2 different set rings, could the affix from both rings be applied to the same exalted ring?

Or even from different sets, could 1 item count towards 2+ set bonuses?

edit: I see this was asked a while ago, oops #👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs message

[placid plinth]

I know that no item can count towards 2 pieces of the set bonus. I do not know if both affixes could be applied at the same time. I can check tomorrow if you remind me earlier in the day.

[candid night]

Will the new season's innovations be available in the "standard" league?

[somber marten]

It's all core content, there will be no season-exlusive content as of yet.

[placid plinth]

Got confirmation from agent 000 that it's 1 set affix per item as expected

[visual apex]

Can you have a set and a champion affix though? Or are they exclusive?

[ember topaz]

That was a yes #👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs message

[visual apex]

Ah, excellent

[candid night]

What's the point then for people to play a new season if they can run around with all the gear already ready. Got it. Strange decision, as usual.

[somber marten]

Some people love their fresh starts and leaderboards. Economy is seperate and leaderboards only exist in seasonal.

[candid night]

True, but you're dividing the already thinned audience into two camps. No problem, as I said, this developer has a huge number of decisions that I will never understand. 🙂

[eternal zinc]

#❔┃ask-the-community message
I want to ask How EHG shatter set items like that

Set items with 3/4 mods is easy to understand but with 5/6 mods I can't imagine

This set item is special enough as an example because

1. More than 4 mods
2. These mods are connected each other
3. Uncapped affix

[ember topaz]

#👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs message
also, predetermined stats;
#👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs message

[eternal zinc]

yeah EHG is prepared which affixes will be available from different sets. I want to ask which affixes can I get from this set item as the example of special case.

[placid plinth]

That information is not available at this time.

[eternal zinc]

.....emmmmmmmm Still under NDA? Alright

[eternal zinc]

How EHG decide which affixes from set items will be prefixes/suffixes?

[placid plinth]

We tried to find exciting, non-broken ones. Some affixes on set items exist because they are balanced around the rest of the set item being less powerful.

[ember topaz]

So it's safe to say we aren't getting 18 Int + 180 Armor to add on our rings from Ferebor 😥

[placid plinth]

well, don't forget that the set affixes have 7 tiers, so we define new rolls ranges for each tier. So while 18 int + 180 armor would be crazy strong, we could have set it to like 7 int and 70 armor at max roll t7 or something.

Disclaimer: I don't know what the affix actually is off the top of my head. Having said that, I would probably have advocated for some of the totem mods to make it onto them as the set bonus is focused around totems.

guess without looking, it's probably int + totem armor

but I doubt the int goes up anywhere near 18, even at max roll t7

[ember topaz]

Ah okay, so that implies that the set affixes are sort of balanced like existing multi mod affixes (eg. Hybrid Health) where each mod is lower than a single mod value would be, rather than sets affixes just being "better" than normal affixes

[placid plinth]

yea, they aren't designed to just be auto take OP

[modest meadow]

With the new mastery respecs coming on the way is there any plans for loadout saving that saves the skills, passives, and gear you wear for character builds you make to make it easier to go back to a previous build?

[placid plinth]

No, we aren't expecting frequent switching. Loadout style systems also only really make sense (to me at least) if you can allocate everything right as you are switching, which you will not be able to do as you'll need to level up your new skills from scratch.

[eternal zinc]

do you mean EHG still doing balance work on set affixes?

[modest meadow]

Okay thanks for the answer was just curious especially because I was surprised you guys added the mastery respeccing in the first place

[placid plinth]

minor tweeks are still on the table but no, they are essentially set.

[eternal zinc]

ok then they're under NDA still so clear info not available 👀

[modest meadow]

Oh ya the Weaver is the big spider right? If so will she be a new pinnacle boss for season 2? If not is it planned for the future?

[low lotus]

Hi we get more filter rules not only 75??? with new items in merchant guild we don't have enough rules for old idols with new idols and new stuff its be ridiculous we now even should loot some bad exalts with new crafting rune what replace stats and 75 rules it very low we need like 200.....

[pine dome]

#1210282176680169562 #1210281911872786482

Also unlikely due to performance issues

[timid fjord]

Do you think that in season 2 endgame gear on builds might use actual set items together with pieces crafted with set shards?

[worthy mirage]

Some games, i.e. Rift, had a "planned build" system where you could save a build template with ordered skill and talent nodes which would be auto-filled on level up, and a similar feature exists on various LE build calculators like LE tools for demonstration purposes. Have you considered this approach?

[sweet vessel]

Agreeing here with Ashunava, a buildplanner ingame would be awesome

[amber hill]

Will the info on Timerot rework and Disintegrate/other skill buffs be teased in the other podcasts or will the focus be on new content

[icy stratus]

Is clicking few points once a playthrough really that big of a deal? This would also be problematic for new players, they'd just paste it in and would have no reason to even read the tooltip to get the gist of their build
It's QoL that kinda removes important bit of the game, especially for new players

[pine dome]

I might have missed it and can't find it in here.
Do we know when the Woven Faction becomes available?
Regular Monos? Empowered?

[tawdry pilot]

I Heard since normal, i hope it’s not a leak or mistake lol

[sturdy root]

are there ever plans to make supported global chats, like how in poe you have global 1, 2, 3, etc? and not just random

[pine dome]

Sorry Mike, I cant seem to use the Search fonction properly today
I am 99% sure Heartseeker was confirmed as a MM only skill, do you mind confirming again ?

[uncut moon]

i remember he said it is MM exclusive skill. and it would be 35-40 point unlock

[eternal zinc]

Which one is more rare in game, 4x t7 affixes on an exalted item or a 2lp red ring?

[amber hill]

both more common with nemesis but I think 4x t7. actual rarest would be 5x T7

[placid plinth]

Yup, I've discussed the pros and cons of a system like that on stream a few times now.

[placid plinth]

By the end of the podcast tour, everything will be revealed in detail.

[placid plinth]

it's difficult to compare because a 4x t7 item has way more opportunities to drop. Both are irrelevantly rare.

[placid plinth]

no but if you'd like us to consider something, toss it in #1210282176680169562

[eternal zinc]

yeah I want to ask the drop rate of a 4 t7 affixes exalted item then the result is clear. We have the data of drop rate for a 2lp red ring.

[placid plinth]

It is available right from the first mono in normal. You can see it's normal fall of the outcasts in the trailer.

[placid plinth]

It is unlocked at 30 points in the marksman tree (lock line is 22.5)

[placid plinth]

I'm sorry, I don't know. It's rare enough that you shouldn't ever expect to see one.

[pine chasm]

Is this confirmation that patch notes will be released on or by that last Friday podcast? 👀

[amber hill]

Dang thought it was for all Rogue since the trailer said new ROGUE skill

[buoyant bone]

Out of the things that have been teased/revealed so far, which one is your favorite Mike? (or any EHG member who wants to talk about it)

[eternal zinc]

😂 2lp red ring is the same so...

[low peak]

Currently the support for a "Cast on Crit" or "Cast while Channeling" Warpath feels very lackluster, can we expect some changes on this with the sentinel rework?

[uncut moon]

i kinda expect that Aaron will blast us with so much stuff and possibly patch note on his podcast that why he ask for the last podcast schedule

[plucky cape]

Thank you! Great design choice looking forward to it!

[limber plume]

Have you considered "drip-feeding" teasers daily until patch day/release day - that sorta thing (so we get some small tidbit every day)? This is the question for future cycle releases of course

[placid plinth]

yup

[placid plinth]

casting stuff while doing stuff is very powerful in itself, I'm not rushing to make it even more powerful.

[placid plinth]

Heartseeker

[buoyant bone]

💘 dang the prediction was corret

[rancid sand]

heyo can i use arena keys for the key trader for getting the charms?

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure, I hope so?
no

[rancid sand]

me too XD need to get rid of some

[jaunty dune]

can i use lizard tales for the key trader for getting charms? 😏

[placid plinth]

that doesn't look like anything to me

[jaunty dune]

[worthy mirage]

that sounded suspiciously suspicious

[timid fjord]

Do you think that with the set rework endgame gear will now also include mix of set items, not only rare/exalted with set shards?

[placid plinth]

I think that there are a couple situations where it might happen. There are a few spots where the affix on the set item is really strong and given that you can get the set bonus by wearing reforged versions of the other pieces, it makes the base set item actually playable. I don't think it will happen frequently but there are a couple spots.

[low peak]

I was thinking about this for the last few minutes and something clicked here: what's the big difference between warpath triggering stuff and all the other skills that trigger other skills that people LOVE and the game currently supports quite well?

[crude plover]

There's quite a lot of "while channeling" affixes and stats that are quite potent. So letting you do stuff on top of channeling can be a slippery slope

for example you can have flat spell damage while channeling, which is not an affix you can have anywhere except for swords to make up for them lacking it in the implicit

[placid plinth]

yea, that's what I meant, it's already strong, not sure it needs to be significantly stronger

[night tusk]

Are the crafted set items going to be locked to the same class as the set aka can I get the Corsair set bonus on a blcok forge knight build by crafting it onto forge knight gear?

[placid plinth]

Reforged Set Items have the same class requirements as the base set item that they came from.

[night tusk]

Ok that makes sense just wanted to make sure, less damage on block would be nice for FG

[placid plinth]

if it makes you feel any better, it's just necrotic damage, not all damage

[night tusk]

Yeah not the greatest mod but 1 suffix for 35% less necrotic would be really strong any extra tank is extra tank

With the new system from what i understand you crafting the bonuses so does that mean i can get the 3 set bonus crafted without the 2 set bonus anywhere

[amber hill]

No the crafted mod will have some of the affixes of the original set item and will count towards the set bonus

[night tusk]

Ok that makes sense so I get some of the let say crit multi from Zerrick's ambition and it counts towards the set bonus, so i can't can't get the nice 3 set bouns with out the 2 set

[amber hill]

Hey wait a minute, how can it go up to T7 if it can only be crafted on an item?

[night tusk]

In a podcast they showed a new rare rune that takes 20-30 forging that redistrubites mod teirs so if you have 1 t7 and 3 t5 mods you have 22 teirs and they get split among the mods

[scenic cove]

1-20 forging potential, not 20-30

[amber hill]

Oh yea that would work

[scenic cove]

And not split, just shuffled, so if you had T7 and T5, T5 and T4, you will still have those tiers, just on different affixes. So if you had T7 Strength and T4 Vitality, it can change to T7 Vitality and T4 Strength

[potent oyster]

I'm guessing one of these scenario is vilatria with the lightning meteor convert?
I'm assuming the convert mods remains on the set item itself, because otherwise there will be no point equipping the set items itself if the most interesting mods can be acquired thru the affix shards, meanwhile if you want to take advantage of the set bonus (+lightning damage per int) and you are not playing meteor, then both slots can be exalted items with set affix?

[crude plover]

If that were the case then that's the use case that stands out. But we don't know what the set affixes are so who knows ^^

Also the crown itself isn't all that great, having +1 level, 16 pen and 8 int with a mediocre implicit. You'd probably just shatter both in that case

[night tusk]

You can't craft multipul sets on to a rare right?

[crude plover]

correct

one set affix per item

[drowsy thicket]

Ooh, with double beams coming at you from both ends of the platform? Bring it in!

[potent oyster]

I think it's better this way. Because then, if interesting/build enabler mods are all on affix shards, then the base set items themselves will see no use and will always be shatter fodder.

They can buff the base set item if it's underpowered while still giving us the option to shatter for different builds that wants to abuse set bonus instead.

Really good system imo. opens up lots of options and also, lots of design space for future updates

[sullen sundial]

Hi Mike! How are you doing? I was wondering one thing after all the amazing things from the talk with Rex and Ziz:
with so many new things and much more power at our disposal couldn't there be a risk that the difficulty of mobs or other contents, mostly old content i guess, will be triviliazed by the powercreep? (sorry for the not perfect english : P )

[drowsy thicket]

Play hardcore and problem solved 🙂

They were asking EHG to launch season 2 a week earlier, and they left the server pretty much immediately after being told to post in the suggestions thread.

[placid plinth]

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

literally answered right above you

[jaunty dune]

is it possible to get 28 Weavers Will? TunkLabs WW calculator shows odds up to 27WW but just shows 0% for 28.

[placid plinth]

28 should be technically possible but extremely unlikely.

[flat rain]

i already have my holidays arround 2 of april, dont move the release ^^

[jaunty dune]

cool that's what i would have expected, was surprised seeing Tunklabs show 1/5000000 for 27 WW and then 0% chance for 28

[slate spire]

Will the new content be exclusive for the season first then roll over to non season?

[placid plinth]

At least most, yea.

[placid plinth]

No, sorry, I meant at most.

[sullen sundial]

Hey Mike, do you happen to have any info about the question that i asked before reguarding difficulty and powercreep? Just really curious and interested in knowing what do you think about it

[placid plinth]

I'm sorry, I don't remember it but we try not to introduce much if we can. Season 2 will bring up the baseline power of most builds but will reduce the top end power possible by outliers. People like new power. We don't want to risk having to add a M, B, T, Qa, Qu, S, etc to the end of damage numbers.

[sullen sundial]

The question was this one right here

[sullen sundial]

Yes, i completely agree on the damage numbers and i would like to not have to deal with that if possible😅
Thanks for the answer, you guys are awesome!

[night tusk]

I don't think there will be much power creep before empowered monos because all the new affixs on rare gear are from weaver tree and crafting endgame gear and if there is creep in empowered monos the corruption avg will just go up 100 envy makes that go pretty quick

The corruption numbers getting into the 10k+ range again would be problematic but i don't see that happening out side of bugs

[placid plinth]

Oh yea, we have added several new challenges to keep things interesting. Champions, exiled mages and nemesis encounters are all higher difficulty challenges.

[buoyant bone]

Are exiled mages getting updated in 1.2? (like new attacks/vairants of exiled mages like the variants of shade)

[sullen sundial]

I was wondering the same about the Nemesis encounter 👀

[placid plinth]

not significantly

[placid plinth]

[obsidian harbor]

thanks

[fringe sparrow]

Thanks for asking this. I've been wanting to know too

[amber hill]

Maybe more of a general question but how do the devs feel about builds specializing in a skill and not using it. For example, Storm crows specialize in Wolf for the +1 companion(not using the skill at all), Aaron's will wants you to specialize in skeletons to get more max bone golems but the rest of the 11 points in the skill are useless, Profane Veil specialized for mark of the rat and then mortality grasp gets used to proc its effect.

[somber marten]

Using Profane veil, one of warlock's best defensive buttons as an example is probably not a good idea. (The rest are fair game though)

[waxen fox]

Question about experimental affix on boots: "increased effect of frenzy on you"

Since we are able in season 2 to give manifest armor permanent frenzy with the new weaver amulet i was wondering if this experimental boots affix will work for manifest armor.

How I think it should work = the "on you" becomes the manifest armor and it does gain increased frenzy effect.

If it was just "increased effect of frenzy" I would be more inclined to trust it works but since we know most of the unique stat lines don't work in combination with manifest armor, I wonder if the "on you" part makes it too unique to not be coded in to work with manifest armor.

Can any dev confirm this works or does not work?

[river dragon]

That is a normal stat and is transfered to manifest armor. The stat does work properly on the manifest armor. The "you" in the stat refers to the actor which has the ailment.

Not significantly. We are looking at Lich as a focus of the next release though.

[timid fjord]

Is there an idea you are particularly proud you managed to talk into the game?

[buoyant bone]

For the new champion affix that gives a chance to trigger smite on throwing attack hit, does that share its cap of 10 with the idol affix?

So like if I trigger 10 smites from just the idols, the champion affix version of it wont trigger any more smites

[pine dome]

Mike 😁
Are Arena Champions and Champions from the Champions affixes thingy the same thing?

[icy stratus]

Are we getting more sets in S2? ||there's only 17 sets https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/itemsets, no bow/quiver set, maybe it's better to ask how many new sets are we getting||

Does it refers to Champions/affixes dudes, or Arena Champions?

[long merlin]

Hey there, any member of EHG 🙂

Are there any upcoming changes for the next 2-3 updates regarding "visibility of skills of other party members"?

I mostly play with a friend and sometimes it gets rough to "see clear", espacially with something like frostclaw+spark charge. It looks very clean and beautiful, but it clutters the whole screen sometimes. ^^

Are there plans to add an option to give other players' casts/attacks some form of transparency, like a toggle option or something so most likely your own casts get shown?

[hazy oxide]

Hey everyone, can someone tell me if by default swarmblade hives count as "totems" trying to use some shaman tree passive nodes to buff my locusts but im not sure if it works that way or not, thanks

[hazy oxide]

Perfect, thank you

Are there any plans to add a respec NPC to the inside of monos? It can be tedious to have to port back to the end of time. Or a hideout of sorts would be convenient too

[wooden lynx]

Have you guys considered releasing season 2 a week earlier instead of sticking to april 2?

[placid plinth]

Yes, we have considered that. We don't have any comment at this time.

[placid plinth]

No, frequent respecing isn't something we are overly interested in.

We don't have anything for this coming in Season 2 but I can see it being useful. Toss it in #1210282176680169562 if you'd like us to do it.

[long merlin]

Will do it, i will read through the suggestion process 🙂
ty for the answer

[jade tendon]

⚠️ I have an idea that I would like to share with you !

I personally think it would be a smart tactical move for Last epoch to release Season 2 a week earlier than April 2nd. This would give everyone more time to enjoy the game before attention shifts elsewhere.

As for Twitch Drops, they don’t really matter that much in this situation. The devs could offer something symbolic instead—what truly matters is that people actually play the game, rather than just watching it for two days before much player moves on to watching Poe2.

This is just my personal opinion, but I believe launching earlier would be the best way to ensure Last Epoch gets the attention it deserves.

[crude plover]

They currently have nothing to comment regarding a delay to the launch date.
#👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs message

[fluid plank]

Wait, if the new Idol system for applying WW to them works as I think it does, doesn't that mean that they could technically be rerolled (divine style) on the Woven Offering altar since that idol becomes a "Weaver's Will" item and the altar specifically says that it can reroll WW items? If true, it's not as bad of an idea to 'enchant' idols with bad rolls, but 2 correct affixes for your build then?

[pine chasm]

It's not WW, it's "Weaver's Touch"

[fluid plank]

Ah, that would make sense then. Are we sure that it's called that way, and it's not just the name of the thing that applies WW to Idols? Just to confirm 100%

[meager bridge]

Good point. Even if it was something like 3 days earlier I feel like the difference would really be felt. Shame that its become such a big drama with the POE 2 release timing. Personally I'm playing LE either way

[valid marlin]

Roughly how many employees does EHG have these days?

[olive cargo]

Weird question, but I'm curious anyway. Is the Steam library icon for the game going to change to reflect season 2 when it launches? It's been quite purple for some time. 😄

[novel spindle]

Will the new boss key system next patch allow you fight arena bosses without having to do the full arenas? A lot of the bosses have really cool unique items, but it's really frustrating to fight the whole arena for a 1/3 chance to fight the boss you need.

I just noticed the thing about arena echoes, which is cool. I guess my question still holds.

[novel spindle]

very interested in the answer to this question

[slate nimbus]

I just do some very hard math and timer on official site is counting towards 1st april, not 2. Is it hidden joke?

Please don't ping ehg members, also yeah i think the countdown is wrong, although i thought it got fixed. i'll check. Nope it's still a day early ^^

[placid plinth]

You can actually see the JS for the countdown timer directly on the page if you inspect it

Love the addition of wasd movement! Any plans on doing something similar with controller with dual stick controls? (being able to move with left stick but aiming skills with right stick), even if it doesn't make it on time for the next big patch?

[ember topaz]

this is the next iteration of leetcode based dev interviews

[novel spindle]

ty for answers 🙂

[placid plinth]

Not that I know of, the controller targeting has been overhauled for Season 2.

[rigid cargo]

So overhauled but not the same as dual stick controls in the sense that I explained correct?

[placid plinth]

yes

controller targeting is now build specialization and context specific. For lack of a better term, it's "smart". But it still does dumb things in some edge cases so we will need feedback to find and fix them.

[clear marlin]

[red urchin]

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

[clear marlin]

oh okey i will wait to see if tomorrow the interview brings updates thanks!

[supple pulsar]

Question: Why are there hidden modifiers in the endless arena and what provokes them? I've seen my enemies look like they're "enraging at half health" because they've clearly been scaled up, and then they scale down when they die, yet there's no indicator underneath the minimap of this modifier. So why are they enraging? It seems as though it happens after I type in chat much more regularly, is it some sort of anti-camping / standing still thing or something? I love the endless arena and I hate this inconsistency.

[pine chasm]

It's a standard monster modifier. Rare and magic mobs can spawn with the "of Rage" suffix that adds "Enrages at Half Health" text under their health bar (rares each spawn with a prefix and a suffix, magics each spawn with a suffix). See all modifiers in the pool here: https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/monstermods

[jaunty dune]

does the name "last epoch" imply that there have been other epochs before the one that we use (the device we use for time travel, not epoch as in a period of time) or is it referring to the fact that we are coming to the end of time and living in the last epoch (the period of time, not the device)?

[placid plinth]

yes

[jaunty dune]

the secret 3rd option, i should have known

[supple pulsar]

I was asking specifically about the endless arena though, are there just random modifiers that don't show up in the normal area per wave? The reason I'm asking is because it seems to be motivated by something like standing still or talking in the global chat (which would probably come from standing still), where if you stand around for a while then hit "next wave" then the next wave the monsters are going ape shit out of no where. I would like to know why

[placid plinth]

In order to have some variability in the waves so you are not just on auto-pilot and things are more interesting, some mobs can randomly spawn as Magic or Rare enemies.

[supple pulsar]

So is it just random and not related to anything I'm doing? It seems like standing still generates far more difficult enemies, making skills like arcane ascendance a liability (because you stand still while using it), but am I just imagining things?

[placid plinth]

There is no "standing still" punishment. The only thing is that the next wave does eventually auto-start if you take too long to kill the previous one in the same set.

[visual apex]

The standing still punishment is everything hits you 😢

[night tusk]

If i had something to say about the release date where are you guys looking for that "Unlike any other"?
You have often used polls in the past is that an option?

[placid plinth]

I understand that people really want to help us make the best decision possible here. However, there is a ton of information that we can't share which has a massive impact on the situation. Without all the information, it is almost impossible to make a suggestion.

It's good to hear what people want and that can go in "Unlike any other". We've got all our options and are weighing them carefully.

A poll could be interesting to find out what people want but almost all of the options you would expect to see on that poll are just impossible. We also don't really use polls that way. It's a tool to gauge the community desire on something which then gets a seat at the table in the larger discussion. We don't use polls to pick something. It just so happens that in the past, poll results have lined up with what we were already planning on doing.

[cursive sparrow]

i think s2 so hype that it doesnt matter and people are overreacting a bit 😤 Leak us more mtx instead pls 🙏

[primal girder]

Is there a particular set you're most excited to see get some action with the new system?

[simple axle]

Is there going to be a rundown video on the new mechanics/crafting?

[heady onyx]

are there any plans to expand the trap skills for rogue? it seems like they were intended to have some kind of mana return passive on the falconer tree but only Decoy interacts with it. The alt-text still mentions "trap skills"
and related to that, is there a point to acid trap outside of just turning the skill into a trap? it doesn't actually seem to have a benefit other than altering the playstyle since nothing interacts with traps. if anything it's actively detrimental since it costs 1point+the 3 prior

[gentle thorn]

Does that mean we can use the same set affix to increase the tier from 1 to 5 like a regular affix?
Or is it only possible by using a rune of havoc?

[placid plinth]

yes! If I tell you then it will confirm which affix is getting moved though.

[placid plinth]

yup

[fluid axle]

Are you reasonably confident all the current sets could see some play in viable builds?

[placid plinth]

net trap and explosive trap should work with that too eh?

[placid plinth]

t1-5 work just like any other affix shard and can be added to get more tiers

[placid plinth]

all? depends on the line for viable. I think all of them have something interesting that could make them very useful in different builds. Some of the builds that they fit the best with might just not be strong enough in the first place.

actually, yea, the opportunity cost of a single affix is low enough that I think all current sets could see some play in viable builds.

[timid fjord]

Are the set shattering forges rare? You can shatter quite many items in one use it seems

[placid plinth]

you'll have to seek them out, but if you want one it shouldn't be too difficult to get one.

[fluid axle]

Is not being able to talk about content killing you? lol

[placid plinth]

omfg yes

[simple axle]

I know theres going to be a Bee pinacle boss can you spoil when its going to happen

[fluid axle]

I'm just hoping we get SwarmBee Form MTX someday

[placid plinth]

I think that's kinda unlikely to be a real pinnacle boss. We don't have any current plans for it. (I do like the idea of a more easter eggy approach to it though)

[fluid axle]

Secret Bee Level when?

[eternal zinc]

Can't access these contents now kill me too, no worries

All we can complain is NDA's exist :)

I'm curious about any new maps for new echoes (I don't mean maps designed for woven faction. Except ones from woven faction) personally

[meager bridge]

True

[heady onyx]

yeah you'd think so since the alt-text explicitly mentions the three trap skills, but as of now only Decoy detonations return mana which is what the bonus itself says. I imagine the trap text is vestigial from a prior design, but honestly it doesn't seem like it would break balance or anything

[modest dirge]

I don't think it's a wise idea to anger your current playerbase for a 4th delay.

[sturdy root]

are we going to be able to slam set bonus affixes onto uniques? or add them somehow? or is it just on exalted items

[amber hill]

Only exalted items the item will not be usable for legendary slamming

[pine dome]

Once they become Exalted/Sets Items, they CANNOT be used for Slamming

[wooden lynx]

maybe ehg will release the update a week earlier 🤷‍♂️

[flint bloom]

Its so weird that Mike has already answered this, to you specifically

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

[wooden lynx]

it wasnt a question of mine, i just told it to him/her (?) that its a possibility

[somber marten]

It would be immensely worrying if EHG did, but it'll be funny.

[wooden lynx]

why would it be worrying if they release it 1 week early? 1 week early is not exactly alot

[clear marlin]

I think that if they can launch next week or something like that would be great for everybody

[sand scarab]

Maybe this was already addressed, I haven't played since season 1, but any plans to balance the movement speed/traversal skills for all classes? Playing with a rogue in your group meant walking through an empty map and letting them get every objective.

[crude plover]

If you'd like for something to change please post feedback or a suggestion in the #1210281911872786482 / #1210282176680169562 . There has been no mention of narrowing down the speed of all the classes. (would be weird imo if a sentinel in full plate moves as fast as a rogue but i get you're coming more from a gameplay experience side of it)

[inner quest]

if you want to discuss that further one of the other channels would be better suited, I certainly never felt like I was lacking for mobility on my sentinel builds though

[knotty furnace]

Hello !
I have a question regarding the old version of the roadmap :
In the 1.2 picture, we could see the two-headed dragon which is now part of the 1.2 and the 1.3 which seemed to be themed around the woven is also included in the 1.2, it's the main thing.
Now, in the old 1.2 features, I noticed this, since everything is merged together : "+Primordial Uniques" and "+Primal Hunt Endgame Events", are they still a thing/cancelled ? Or are they maybe scheduled for the 1.3 ?
(My question may be silly after what we saw in the trailer + interview but.. heh)
Thank you :)

[flint bloom]

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

based on this, the primal things are not coming in 1.2, but might come further down the line, but there is just no info about whats after this specifically

[modest dirge]

Sad to see it

[eternal zinc]

Mike, any info about skill sigil are available?

[crude plover]

nope

[olive cargo]

Is there any concern that returning players may be let down by how little the early/middle of the game has changed, since the majority of the season 2 content is pretty late in the game?

[placid plinth]

Not really, the time to see something new is pretty low and you get into the meat of what's new on the first day of play if someone is diving right in.

[cursive sparrow]

when will new supporter pack be available and will we get one void themed as usual?

[marble socket]

I'll buy the bigger one. 😌

[humble axle]

ask dev's how do you feel about limited time items of which once you earn them there is zero chance of getting them again. and the type of item im referring to is one that adds no benefit in game at all such as a player title or a visual skin. For me i really with more games had them and didnt do a "bringing back the(x) lootbox" (calling out Epic games here)

[crude plover]

They've already done things like this such as the early access backpack

[plucky cape]

Is the developer team multinational, or are most of them located on the same physical location?

[crude plover]

multinational, but a lot of them seem to be located in the US and Canada

[unkempt axle]

Why are the damaging ailments the way they are? As in they all have their own base damage instead of scaling from the source of the damage. Were there a deciding argument while coming up with the damaging ailments the way they are?

[solid torrent]

Mike, is strong effects of sets like a proc also moving in the form of an affix? Like in the Shard of the Shattered Lance for instance, "100% chance to gain Deicide for 15 seconds..." which grants 20% more movement speed and damage

[placid plinth]

It's been so long since we had that debate, I can't remember what the deciding argument was. I guess it's something like to carve out a more clear identity for each.

[placid plinth]

Some yes, some no. We haven't released the list of the set affixes yet.

[placid plinth]

There are also quite a few in europe and south america

[placid plinth]

fine I guess? Things like that aren't generally itemized in my experience though.

[placid plinth]

I think on patch day probably because the client updates to get them. I'm not sure if there is a void themed one

[meager bridge]

Are there any plans to rework / buff stun avoidance?

[humble axle]

Good afternoon, i don't know if this is possible but could you please consider showing a small video of how the new exalt switching rune works in tomorrows dev talk on stream. I hope im not being unreasonable in the request and its not too late asking this. Just from myself and others i talk to it would be greatly appreciated to see how the item changes to clarify any pre assumed thoughts. It dosnt have to be the full process of what the system is it could just simple be a screenshoot of an item before and after the new ruin is used. Ideally an example item that has multiple tiers of exalts on it like a 1hd sword with t7/5/6/3. Please and thankyou.

[crude plover]

We know pretty much exactly how it works, is there something you'd like clarified?

[crude plover]

Nothing that's been announced, if you'd like there to be please post either a feedback post stating what's not good about its current state or a suggestions post if you have a good idea on how to improve it in the #1210281911872786482 / #1210282176680169562 ^^

[crude plover]

Here's an example of what the rune could do

[humble axle]

so basically lets say the item in use is a 1hd sword with prefix t7 crit multi, t5 flat light dmg, suffix t6 fire pen hybrid, t3 stun chance. after using the "shuffle rune" what would the possible result be. would it be an 1hd sword with prefix t7(x) t5(x), suffix t6 (x) t3(x) where "x" represents any valid possible affix for that slot

[crude plover]

ah you meant the one that swaps the exalted affixes for new ones?

[iron pond]

then a fiery one for sure, i need one to match the shield i already have! 😄

[crude plover]

If you meant this one then it practically just uses a chaos on them (without changing the tier)

If you meant Rune of havoc then refer to my previous reply

[jaunty dune]

does haste effect snapshot at the time when you gain haste?

[placid plinth]

yes (zone transitions reapply haste from a new source if you're thinking about the new relic)

[jaunty dune]

wasn't thinking about the new relic at all actually, but good to know.

just trying to find the theoretical maximum movement speed in the game (including allowing for hot-swapping gear - anything to make the number on your character sheet go up).

Current max we have found is ~544% character sheet movespeed

[winged pebble]

Have there been any more talk about cursor customization or just a cursor redesign in general?

[placid plinth]

There isn't really anything to talk about with regards to it yet. We want it. We can't have it yet. Kinda where the conversation dies.

[winged pebble]

Gotcha!

[boreal kernel]

hiya. when will the new supporter packs be on steam and will the current ones stay?

[jaunty dune]

New packs come on patch day most likely, old packs will go away at some date in the not too distant future (it's been announced I just don't remember the date)
#👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs message

[boreal kernel]

when you say distant future, will they be gone before or after the patch?

i found my answer, april 18th the old ones leave the store #👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs message

[rigid burrow]

Hey Mike, pretty excited for s2 here, do you know if there is any mention of having to re-do the campaign, over and over again as the form of leveling still, i read about monoliths possibly unlocking idols slots/passives, so you only have to do the campaign up to mastery.

Or something of the sort mentioned yet?

[placid plinth]

We haven't announced a system change like that.

[rigid burrow]

Thanks for the clarification mike.

[fluid axle]

What's your favorite part about skill sigils

[placid plinth]

that they are still shrouded in mystery and can be anything.

[fluid axle]

Obviously talking nothing concrete and waaaay into the future, is it more likely we might see a 6th class or a 4th mastery first?

[placid plinth]

We aren't afraid to have some classes with 4 masteries and others with 3 so likely you'd see a 4th mastery before a full on 6th class with 3 masteries of their own.

[final cave]

Grole farmer needs no other mastery.

[cursive sparrow]

are there any improvements to evade in s2?(instant cast or animation cancel maybe?)

[viscid marsh]

With sets having the possibility to be turned into shards what role do set items play? Are they there to provide set bonuses in early game before we can apply them to rares? I presume there is no reasonable tuning that could match set to an exalted item

[gentle thorn]

1 example : set affixes wont include all the affixes, but a fixed hybrid one chosen by EHG, so you might still want something from a set item

(example, maybe the "Invoker's Static Touch" set affix wont be "gain ward when you hit a shocked enemy")

[uneven kestrel]

Set affixes is only 1 from the set? That seems disappointing.

I thought there’d be a few at least

[flint bloom]

No one knows what the actual set items/affixes will be other than the devs picked them.

[uneven kestrel]

Oh, so we don’t know the amount of different affixes we have to play with

[placid plinth]

1 specific hybrid affix per specific set item

[gentle thorn]

this is what Mike said about it : #👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs message

[viscid cargo]

so just to clarfiy, its one fixed affix from a set item, as in, shattering X set item will always yield the same set affix. Or is it it you will only gain one set affix, but that set affix will be random?

[timid fjord]

same item always gives same affix shard

[placid plinth]

Each set item has 1 specific hybrid affix that is always created as a shard.

[Disclaimer: I don't know the actual affix for this off the top of my head, this is just an example to explain it]
Ferebor's Persistence has the following affixes.
+(100 to 181) Armor
+(100 to 181) Armor for Totems
+(10 to 18) Intelligence
+(10 to 18) Health Regen
+(10 to 18) Health Regen for Totems

The set affix that comes from Ferebor's Persistence could hypothetically have int and Health regen if we picked those 2. It would always have those 2 specifically. They would have 7 tiers where the roll ranges are not necessarily linked to the set item at all. There is no way to pick different affixes for the set affix to use.

I should also mention that while we were going through and picking out which affixes to use, some minor adjustments were made to some items and their set bonuses. If you're trying to plan out which set affixes are going to be the best now, it'll be very tricky to predict.

[supple pulsar]

This brings up so many more questions, but I appreciate the effort in writing all that into discord. There are so many detailed changes that i'd like to see before April 2nd, but I assume there's a plan to release all of this information over the next 3 weeks?

[placid plinth]

but they are questions about specific affixes, not how the system functions though right?

[pine chasm]

Maybe a slight question. I think I remember hearing the aim was to get the essence (or some word like that) of the set item into the affix. After looking through the sets to just think about some possibilities, did you have to combine any set stats into fewer lines to accomplish that?

[jaunty dune]

how are the set shards named in our material stash? for example ferebor's is it like ferebor's persistence - shard or is it ferebor's shard - ring? some other thing?

[placid plinth]

Ferebor's Persistence Reforged Shard

[placid plinth]

You can't really combine them like that in affix form. So no. We did a single hybrid affix for each. Important to note that some affixes that are sitting on Set (and unique) items look like 1 affix but they are actually 2+ affixes in disguise. These couldn't be used.

[jaunty dune]

and then i guess the dagger is ferebor's chisel reforged shard. nice that sounds easy to browse through, thanks for the answer!

so hybrid affixes are essentially 2 stats in 1, is it possible to have more than 2? (not asking if they're coming but if the affix system would support that)

[pine chasm]

I guess I'm asking more about some possible changes we might see to the set items themselves when you mentioned making some minor adjustments to them - if any of the changes were motivated by the set shards becoming a thing (ignoring changes to the set bonuses)
Edit: Oh, just read your edit - very interesting! 😁 I wouldn't have assumed they worked that way

[regal stratus]

are the set affix shards prefix, suffix or can be either?

[placid plinth]

depends on what affix it is, we picked a specific one for each shard

[regal stratus]

so if there's 2 mods coz each is a hybrid, they would have to be both prefixes that turns into a prefix shards, 2 suffixes that turns into a suffix shards, can't be a prefix/suffix hybrid coz what would happen then?

[placid plinth]

no, we just picked for each prefix or suffix

[desert sleet]

Hybrid affixes are affixes that take up 1 affix slot, but have 2 stats on them. Experimental affixes are a good example of this. Set shards are similar: 2 stats inspired by the set item that take up 1 affix slot as 1 hybrid affix

[stiff pilot]

Will the WASD option be a forced option like poe2 where you have to pick if you want to use WASD or mouse at the start of the character creation?:) Or can you swap whenever?

[potent swift]

I'm sure this information is somewhere in the discord already, but I'm struggling to find it. Where can I see the podcast tour dates? I'm hyped as hell for the next info dripfeed for the upcoming 1.2 update

[crude plover]

You can swap whenever in poe 2

[crude plover]

3/7 Maxroll (Raxx/Ziz)
3/14 Ghazzy/Frosty
3/21 Talkative Tri
3/28 Aaronarpg

[potent swift]

Awhh yis Ghazzy and Frost tomorrow. Hell yeah! We got a time for that to tune in?

[jaunty dune]

It's just ghazzy - frosty is with aaron

[crude plover]

yeah you're right, i just copy pasted it and didn't check if it was correct lol

[placid plinth]

You can switch on the fly

WASD is more like WASD + mouse than straight WASD

[regal stratus]

does this mean you can have a set affix shard that is a prefix/suffix hybrid, but then you chose for it to be a suffix shard, not a prefix shard? This matters, especially for weapons where the prefix is super important.

[placid plinth]

I'm sorry, I don't really understand.

Every affix shard in the game is hard locked to always be either a prefix for a suffix.

Each Set affix shard has been selected by us to be either a prefix or a suffix shard.

it doesn't matter what that affix would normally be if it were a normal affix shard

[crude plover]

Hybrid means it's one affix with two stats, not that it can take up either type of slot

[regal stratus]

i get what hybrid typically means, but they are making their own hybrids up here, they are combining 2 existing stats into a hybrid

[placid plinth]

that's what all hybrids are

Let's go back to this example

[Disclaimer: I don't know the actual affix for this off the top of my head, this is just an example to explain it]
Ferebor's Persistence has the following affixes.
+(100 to 181) Armor
+(100 to 181) Armor for Totems
+(10 to 18) Intelligence
+(10 to 18) Health Regen
+(10 to 18) Health Regen for Totems

The set affix that comes from Ferebor's Persistence could hypothetically have int and Health regen if we picked those 2.

We then pick if that's going to be a prefix or a suffix. Let's say it's a suffix.

So there is now a suffix affix shard which gives int and health regen.

(again, just picking stuff and not looking at what we actually did)

[flint bloom]

Schedule is pinned in general. But its same time as dev streams. 3pm central

[vast valley]

Hey EHG! Firstly, loved the Raxxx interview. Holly stole the show, super stoked shes on your team. One of the things that makes me struggle to stick to ARPG's is the lack of carry-over in between seasons/cycles. Are there any plans to release objectives with seasonal cosmetics/trophies to earn? Looks like you all have done a ton, I'll be here regardless! Thanks for all you're doing.

[placid plinth]

Yea, it was great to get Holly in front of the camera for that. She has been the driving force behind most of the game since almost day 1. If it ever seems like I know what I'm talking about, it's really probably just me repeating things she has said.

As for objective based seasonal cosmetics/trophies, it's something that we are very interested in but haven't implemented for Season 2.

[vast valley]

Copy thank, thanks Mike! Best of luck in the releases and battles to come 🫡

[random hedge]

Will the CoF rank 4 bonus chance to drop a full set remain in S2?

[placid plinth]

yes

[olive cargo]

Will future new armor/weapons/etc bases continue to have bespoke models for them? I'm not asking about uniques deliberately, by the way.

[pallid panther]

Any swarmblade changes for season2 ?

[ember topaz]

Remember when everyone was complaining about one of the CoF prophecies being exclusively for set items, oh how the turn tables

[valid marlin]

Maybe you've already discussed this and I missed it, but I see you saying set affixes go up to T7, but they can only be crafted, right? So...how do you craft up to T7? Is this just different for set affixes?

[red urchin]

there will be a rune that can shuffle the tiers of affixes on an item. for example an item with affixes of tiers 5 4 5 7 could end up with affixes of tiers 7 5 5 4

[valid marlin]

So the normal restrictions apply, but havoc (I think it's havoc?) can shuffle it. That makes sense. I'm still thinking about the mechanics we have now ><

[placid plinth]

There are changes for just about everything to some degree or another so yes but not large sweeping changes.

[leaden swallow]

Any expectation of the game potentially going on sale from now and till the update comes ?

[tawdry pilot]

She needs more spotlight then! But she needs to get new mic first 😄

[amber hill]

Just to confirm, but it should be possible to have an experimental affix, champion affix and set affix on an item right?

[placid plinth]

There are some other changes that might make that not work.

[placid plinth]

I'm sorry, I don't have any info on potential upcoming sales.

[amber hill]

RIP glyph of insight? but set affix should be possible on a experimental item or a champion affix item?

[placid plinth]

They are not inherently mutually exclusive.

[potent swift]

Mike, do you ever sleep?

[eternal zinc]

I guess he live in PT

[stray tapir]

Do we have any news for the upcoming league about Merchant's Guild?

[uneven kestrel]

Is balance the reason you went with this route? As a player having more options (more affixes to choose from) I think would be more fun personally. I.e. 1 affix (not hybrid) from a set but your choice to gamble on which one you want.

[astral reef]

Are you making quest rewards better? 90% of side quest rewards are so bad its waste of time to do those. Well basically every quest outside idol slot/passive skill quests

[granite tendon]

Season 2 is April 2 or 3rd?

[foggy zephyr]

2nd

[eternal zinc]

3rd for me, depend on your time zone

[runic shell]

asking about a problem that i almost forgot about because i've learned to play around it
COF prophecies that trigger with boss/echo boss.
In empowered mono if you choose to fight the harbinger, and you die fighting it, the items from prophecies still on the ground will be lost.
In the new patch, has been done something to trigger the prophecies on the harbinger defeat, instead of boss, to give them the same behavior of boss items?

[placid plinth]

we've got something to help the issue

[placid plinth]

not in season 2

[placid plinth]

balance and scope, allowing all would have required creating hundreds more. There are also some that would have required that we just remove them from the item or nerf the item into the ground and we really didn't want to do either of those.

[placid plinth]

no

[uneven kestrel]

Thank you!

[clear marlin]

Do you plan to release some new info about the launch in today interview

[signal owl]

There will be no news or we have no news?

[solid torrent]

Mike, there's a node on shadow cascade (Leveraged Momentum) that gives % more DMG based on attack speed. There's also a node called Crushing Darkness that gives 30% more DMG but at a cost of "no longer scales with attack speed"
Both are working together, you don't get the AS scaling but you get the damage scaling through attack speed.
Is that a bug? Because the node clearly states "no attack speed scaling" shouldn't Crushing Darkness cancel the other Node? And if is intended, maybe can the node be worded in a way that is more clear?

[summer sorrel]

Hi, can we expect that the partner like LastEpochTools and Maxroll will have the updated information when the patchnote drop to start theorycrafting the new build or not before the actual 1.2 launch?

[hollow agate]

This is indeed a confusing wording but that mean the attackspeed won't make your skill attack faster anymore, but the more damage is still active.

[solid torrent]

I've been playing a build based on leveraged momentum for years now and I never took crushing darkness because I read

[eternal zinc]

builds will launch at the launch day but updated info maybe earlier

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure what their schedule is like for updating info. I assume they both have CT access and are probably preparing database updates. We do sometimes make small changes last second though.

[placid plinth]

we have no news

[placid plinth]

no

[spice girder]

hey is there gonna be any improvments to MG item search UI

[summer sorrel]

But they will be legally able to release the info ? Im really interested in starting real theorycrafting before playing the new patch. Wondering if the community tools will be able to release the update to their tools before we play the new season

[hollow agate]

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

[placid plinth]

I'm not sure what the rules are. I would assume that they can't release anything that isn't included in the patch notes until the patch actually drops.

[glass thorn]

Hey Mike, we just had a conversation on stream about this. The nemesis only bases, not only do they seem insanely rare to find, but they also almsot never seem to upgrade? I did well over 40 harbingers with one of the nemesis bows, and it did not upgrade. Is their currently a bug causing them to not upgrade, and is there a problm with their relative rarity?

[placid plinth]

not that I know of but afaik they always should upgrade? (also harbinger, not nemesis I think)

[solid torrent]

Mike, I have a pretty tanky character, doing 1.5k corruption all across the board yet doing Hereot at 600c is a pain since his "hurricane" 1 taps me.
Defensively the character its in a pretty good state, the map mods is also not the issue.
Will we see improvements on enemy's DoT on season 2?
There's a lot of DoT enemy skills that are still an issue and not balanced at all

[crude plover]

Yeah they should always upgrade afaik

[placid plinth]

Karv and I will be on Ghazzy's podcast in 1 hour

[crude plover]

Karv

[valid dust]

I played for months in CoF and never found 1 good Nemesis base worth keeping. And I hunted Nemesis in almost every echo cause I am a full clear noob.

[placid plinth]

do you mean harbinger?

[wet sphinx]

Can an item have two set affixes? If yes, would it count towards both sets? Random example: Isadora's Gravechill Gloves + The Last Bear's Fury Gloves

[crude plover]

The bases that upgrade when you do a harbinger drop from nemesis encounters

[placid plinth]

oh yea, my bad

I just always call them harbinger bases for some reason

[valid dust]

Yeah they randomly spawn from the Nemesis, but then you kill the Harbinger to upgrade them. They were outrageously rare and even if you got one worht keeping, they never seem to upgrade. I have never seen a single build guide recommend using them

[placid plinth]

no

[visual apex]

I know someone asked if the Rune of Redemption respected affix rarity when rerolling an item, but does the Rune of Havok? Or is it just totally random reroll of tiers (as far as which tier is applied to which affix)?

[mental flame]

Ever since I saw the new nemesis weapons I wanted to make a build around a scorn sceptre with spell crit as an affix and ideally some void viable mods.

If we take 80% chance for nemesis to occur, 25% for it to contain a nemesis weapon, 1 in 12 for it to be the right base type, 1 in 26 for it to be the right mod, 40% chance for it to not reroll spell crit and assume 20 runs per hour. We get almost 200 hours just to see a scorn sceptre with spell crit.

Using the Unique Item Progression Tool from The curse: That is almost 4 times rarer than a 4lp vortex pennant (53h). Or a 2lp wings of argentus with T7 + exact T5 mod slammed (58h).

As CoF, they might as well not exist.

Or am I missing something here?

[crude plover]

Unsure what that has to do with his answer regarding them apparently not upgrading every time. If you'd like to provide feedback please do so in the #1210281911872786482 . Nothing here gets logged

[mental flame]

The question was 2 part, the first is on rarity, to which is asnwered no?

Hence I am asking for clarification how it is supposed to be achievable

[crude plover]

Ah gotcha, yeah I don't think you're missing anything. Hopefully the new runes will help with making one with the correct affixes ^^

[flint bloom]

obviously you just get it first time so you dont spend that much time on anything. just be lucky.

lol

saw that

[placid plinth]

I don't think you're missing anything. I do agree that it is painfully rare to find the specific combo you're after in the current version.

[dark frigate]

"in the current version" does that mean there is an update to that in s2? 👀
