💀┃acolyte

[mild wedge]

that's not how warlock works chief

[red harness]

oh shit nice

[mild wedge]

you are actively heavily punished for single damage typing warlock

[obtuse quest]

If you have majorly spells, then spells.

Otherwise, place int or something

[mild wedge]

ok ty

[red harness]

now the hardest part is having the right exalted drop

[obtuse quest]

THAT'S the hard part, welcome to LP crafting.

[mild wedge]

maybe just don't priortize second prefix and prioritize ailment affixes instead?

don't know how good those are exalted

[red harness]

yup beginning to see it now

[obtuse quest]

Ailments aren't prefixes but ye

[hoary dirge]

uh sorry if this is a redundant question, but where can i find a good filter for ssf acolyte? and what build would u guys suggest i play early endgame?

[obtuse quest]

Filters are made on a per-build basis, so maybe ask someone who's running the same build as you.

[hoary dirge]

makes sense

[chrome mason]

Level with chaos/fissure warlock, then transition to anything else later

[hoary dirge]

would it be possible for me to play the infernal shade lich righ after the campaign?

[crisp ridge]

yea u can

[hoary dirge]

does anybody else have planners for the build other than dread?

or do i jus look for crit multi or whatever 😭

[crisp ridge]

yea its a pretty generic crit setup

[red harness]

only exiled mages drop the experimental item?

[hoary dirge]

ait fair

[red harness]

what about champions

[hoary dirge]

what do i use as placeholders for the uniques?

[mild wedge]

my brains broken btw

[crisp ridge]

just crit stuff and res stuff etc.

[obtuse quest]

Yup

[mild wedge]

what do overloads do

[hoary dirge]

dope thanks

[mild wedge]

i forgot since warlocks release

[obtuse quest]

Champions drop their champion affix

[crisp ridge]

depends the overload, their in the warlock tree

[mild wedge]

I know they're strong, but what do they each do

[red harness]

okie ty

[hoary dirge]

is there any like repository of filters where i can go pick one out?

[obtuse quest]

Check their related passives, each should have an alt text explaining it.

[obtuse quest]

LETools has one but I have no clue if that would help you enough

[north comet]

(torment warlock) I got 2 shit rings, should I equip this and wait for a another good one to slam or just slam it now?

[hoary dirge]

oh fair

[obsidian radish]

Pray no minion dodge

[obtuse quest]

God knows if that's rare enough for you to risk it

[north comet]

it only had necro res, crafted the rest tbh, got lucky

1/3 I get minion dodge tho 😭

[mild wedge]

sweet jesus

[hoary dirge]

do i just not worry about filters for now?

[mild wedge]

good thing you cant penetrate/leech of yourself than

400 poison pen

400 holy jesus

No wonder warlocks so popular

[obtuse quest]

AoD allows the self-apply poison to pen you.

AoD is a special child.

[chilly star]

Anyone playing stygian coal build right now ? How is it?

i kinda wanna chill on LE just follow a guide since im not too familiar with warlock but dunno what to play

[wise basalt]

Oh my God I don't even have to aim my dread shade anymore

I can spawn wraithlord, then just spawn dread shade and it affects the Lord and the two wraiths and I don't have to hover my mouse button over the lord anymore

With this season wraithlord got even better lol

[obtuse lichen]

Anyone find a way to have decent dmg and hp pre T3 jular for harvest

[rare rock]

YO YO THIS BELT

[chilly star]

@chrome mason ur name tells it all, lemme know, how good is coal rn

[autumn elbow]

?

[rare rock]

If i could replae the ward gain with minion health regen it would be perfect

but it would mean losing the three set bonus from Pebbles, that flat +40 damage is big

[chrome mason]

Peak

[autumn elbow]

Aren't you necro guys always looking for that minion tp experimental affix on belts? Or is that for boots?

[obtuse quest]

Or craft the pebble set affix onto it.

[obtuse quest]

Boots/rings now

[chilly star]

what corruption are u on?

[chrome mason]

about to hit 300

And its still as easy as 100

[chilly star]

i have coal already but miss the other uniques

should i still go for it

[chrome mason]

You can play it the moment u get coal tbh

[chilly star]

or farm more with my falconeer

the paddle seems quite rare

[chrome mason]

Just stack as much mana as you can

[rare rock]

i had no idea you could do that. I just arrived n Maj'Elka

il save this belt in my stash for now

[chrome mason]

If youre coming from a different class, try to get as many exiled mage woven echoes and slot it into your weaver tree

on top of the 40% chance for 2x exiled mages to spawn

the node is an echo with 25 mage prisons

So you can get up to 50 mages in a single node its insane

[chilly star]

ye i was just about to respec the tree and put all points into mages

[chrome mason]

This one is also big

[chilly star]

@chrome mason do u think this build will be competetive later on? Ive heard ppl have survivability issues already at 100 to 300 corruption

[chrome mason]

Ive had almost no survivability issues

And getting Null Portent gives you like, INFINITELY more survivability

[chilly star]

do u have the name of the woven echo for prison? i think i dont got one

[chrome mason]

null portent makes this build legit like 15x as tanky

[rare rock]

you guys should try my build, its OP i havent played for like a year + and im going HC nearly done with the campaign

[chrome mason]

Dont have rn and forgot the name

I took it out of my slots in the tree after i got my 3LP ladle

I used marina's until i got ladle tho, it worked fine

[obtuse quest]

Nownow, campaign is really easy.

[rare rock]

but... poison!

everywhere

even on yourself 😄

[chilly star]

Thanks buddy

[wise basalt]

Damn I really hope in S3 they will buff the minions

I love necro but it's the second time I just play wraithlord because it's so much stronger

[obtuse quest]

And that's what kills you!

[obtuse quest]

Unless the shades get shafted, solo minions will always be better

[wise basalt]

I really hope they will not nerf everything too much, just buff something lol

But yeah without dead shade it wouldn't even be half as good especially now since you don't even have to recast it making it even more braindead lol

[obtuse quest]

Dread shade isn't the core cause.
Infernal shade's buff is.

Since that's targetted only, more minions=more shades needed.

[chilly star]

you guys make it sound like Shades are broken

[crisp ridge]

theyre absurdly strong for minons

[obtuse quest]

Without dread shade and infernal shade, minion builds would be dead in the water.

[crisp ridge]

and infernal shade is absurdly strong as well 😂

[wise basalt]

As of now I'm only using dread shade

I have PTSD from recasting every few seconds, it's annoying, don't know if I will ever use the other shade

[obtuse quest]

Good news! That's perma as well

[crisp ridge]

getting spell vamp on arch mage made u not need to recast it, was great

[obtuse quest]

Assuming the minion doesn't die.

[wise basalt]

Whhhhhhaaaaaaatrttttttttt

[obtuse quest]

Always has been.

Just hurts your minion every second.

[crisp ridge]

just double cast shades and its great, aslong as they can hit target

[wise basalt]

Damn my dread shade hurt my minions already with the poison

[wise basalt]

But dread shade poison + infernal shade = the Lord will die too fast xD

[chilly star]

im a casual, i just look at the icy and maxroll tierlists, only good build i see high up is stygian coal

[wise basalt]

I think they got bored of only doing wraithlord builds lol

Still the easiest and strongest

[obtuse quest]

Abom is the strongest, but effort is needed.

[crisp ridge]

i ment more its what makes minons strong

like minions without shade compared to minion with shade

is night and day

[chilly star]

i wonder which warlock build will be able to kill uber abb

[crisp ridge]

my witchfire 🤡

[wise basalt]

Yeah I meant braindead easy not I need to actually be awake easy lol

[obtuse quest]

Source?

[obtuse quest]

Fair.

[crisp ridge]

hey im gunna try, but i have 0 faith in it

it feels like itll do regular with ease tho

[frosty herald]

i reached uber aberoth as wriathlord but goddam is impossible to survive

[obtuse quest]

True. No doubt it cna clear normal abberoth tbh

But uber? Yeahhhhhh

[frosty herald]

yeah normal aberoth was easy

[wise basalt]

Lol nice edit

[frosty herald]

uber is too much aoe

well time to reroll sentinel

and do 20 min fights

[frail ridge]

Hello.
Is the Critical Strike Chance affix for both spells and weapon hits?
I've been having a hard time looking for Spell Critical Strike Chance for my Lich build so I'm confused if I can add the former affix to my loot filter.

[obtuse quest]

Yes.

But the numbers are smaller comapred to spell crit strike chance.

[frail ridge]

Got it.
Thanks!

[chilly star]

i would love to stay falconeer but the aiming with aerial assault is atrocious and probably bugged rn

[sullen furnace]

usable? 1 minion skeleton build?

[rich frigate]

Guys, I am looking at some planners in LE Tools and some of them are weird with the use of the Red Ring:

https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/AV2ekZdA

Why does they have 2 in the planner if their attributes doesn't sum to 180?

Witchfire Warlock Leaguestarter Full Build Guide! [LE 1.2] by Cursedboy

[obtuse quest]

People have been running single big minion, usable, but ehhhh

[obtuse quest]

I dunno, ask the guide maker

[rich frigate]

Nah, if you don't know then I am mostly certain it's a mistake there

[daring holly]

Wheel of Torment: whats the curse ? is it random ?

[obtuse quest]

With torment. Last part of the sentence.

[daring holly]

just realized..

[obtuse quest]

[daring holly]

how many curses can you applie to yourself tho ?

[obtuse quest]

Don't worry sometimes you need an extra pair of eyes

[obtuse quest]

No hard cap.
Realistic: Errr torment, Bone Curse...

I don't remember what else

[daring holly]

is the self bone curse only available in toggle mode ?

[obtuse quest]

Yup.

[daring holly]

so this is garbo ?

[obtuse quest]

It gives you access to warlock curses without being warlock.

But otherwise.

[daring holly]

if self bone curse inflicts decrepify i could technically gets 240ward/sec and 360 with wheel

the decrepify would screw me hard tho

[fathom ridge]

any good SSF filter for torment warlock?

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/torment-warlock-guide this build

[crisp ridge]

it literally has a filter in the guide?

[chilly star]

that is crazy level of laziness, i thought im bad xD

[next wedge]

Hello, does %spell dmg work for witch fire?

[chrome mason]

First omnis

[obtuse quest]

It's not a spell, so no.

[crisp ridge]

scales with dot and curse dmg(downfall of righteous needed)

[obtuse quest]

Also it's damage types.

[next wedge]

I see, since curses seem to basically scale with spells, i wasn't sure

[obtuse quest]

Not all curses are spells.

[safe escarp]

Would that item be good for a minion build? or is there better stuff

[fathom ridge]

i want ssf filter

[crisp ridge]

the implicits and prefixes are rough, but rest is fine

[fathom ridge]

that filter show a lot of market items

[obtuse quest]

Wrong base, the other two perfixes are L

[crisp ridge]

so refine it

[safe escarp]

Damn, so wouldnt be worth much? i dont run this class just found it

[crisp ridge]

loot filters are made to be changed

[next wedge]

I guess, thanks tho!

[obtuse quest]

Ehhhhh not really.

[safe escarp]

What if i reroll the other stats? has 2 free slots and plenty of forge on it xD i need a pay day haha

[obtuse quest]

Oh wait, witchfire isn't even a curse

[obtuse quest]

Debatable, might be decent LP fodder.

[crisp ridge]

its a dot, but will scale with curse dmg if u have the relic

[next wedge]

it scales with curse cuz of the relic

[rare quail]

If mass minions ever end up better it would be nice if there's a way to make them like run ahead of you more without spamming minion move :p

[next wedge]

that's why I was curious if i could scale it with spell dmg too or not

[obtuse quest]

Oh I meant by default it isn't.

[crisp ridge]

its nto even a curse with the relic

[daring holly]

is ward even good now btw ? i can reach 600ward/sec with the amulet and 4 curses

[rare quail]

Ward is still good, just not actually broken like in the past lol

[safe escarp]

if i was to try reroll the void damage and damage over time prefixs on this item, what should i be aiming for?

[next wedge]

welp back to grind to get something to slap on the relic then, plan was a +3 bone curse but thats spell dmg, I will keep it to my eventual downfall to crit chaos bolt

[crisp ridge]

i been lookin for something to slam on my relic all day 🥲

[unborn hedge]

cuts global crit chance in half right?

[obtuse quest]

Any other minion stats

[obtuse quest]

Yes, final modifier

[safe escarp]

do minions use physical damage?

i got physical and crit chance on it as the prefixes now xD

[obtuse quest]

It has it be “minion physical damage”

[safe escarp]

ah right damn

[obtuse quest]

So any minion affix

[obtuse quest]

Still decent

[safe escarp]

what about the suffix, i can choose that one, necrotic, void, poison, cold, fire physical all have minion

[chilly star]

Can you trade WOven echoes ?

Like gift it without resonance

[safe escarp]

dw i bricked it xD

[crisp ridge]

W

[tidal idol]

Hey 👋 it's my first time playing an acolyte after having previously mainly played sorcerers. Is it normal the game doesn't know how to calc the dps on chaos bolts or is this a current patch bug?

[crisp ridge]

yea its normal

lots of skills just dont show up

[tidal idol]

Fantastic.

[tulip galleon]

When I search affixes in the loot filter to have one show for "dread shade" mods like below, theres only the "dread shade" mod itself which I assume is the + to skill?****

[wise basalt]

Dread shade not expiring is the best change ever, I remember the times I missclicked and instead of the Lord, a normal wraith had the shade and then I had to wait 15 seconds lol

(I bought the 5$ skin to see the dread shade better LMFAO)

[crisp ridge]

respectable

[red harness]

that dread shade skin does nothing for me

scammed 50 points

it doesnt scale with my big wraithlord

so it clips into his body

[wise basalt]

Oh I didn't even see the top part only the bottom circle, you're right lol

Still, without the skin I can't see anything at all

[rare rock]

i got the chest piece that gives minions bleed chance, oh boi time to respec 😄

my mastery tree looks insane 😂

[crisp ridge]

:jou

[glossy willow]

Wait i thought this is good for torment wl right?

[tulip galleon]

Anyone got a minion loot filter? maxroll just shows so much

[daring holly]

well i took some time and yes it looks okay

[next wedge]

Is there any good bleed relic?

[crisp ridge]

probably wannamake it to ru own needs than, sites like maxroll really just provide generic-osh ones

[daring holly]

does signet of agony also apply these effects ? what about kill threshold ?

[glossy willow]

Yea necrotic res base and 1 more curse and the decep is good too

[tulip galleon]

Any minion builds yall'd recommend? doing the single skele mage and feels kinda ehhh

[crisp ridge]

abom, golems, wraithlord, arch mage, zombies(infernal shade stuff)

[tulip galleon]

Ye archmage feels not fun

[crisp ridge]

archmage was fun imo, problem was infernal shade upkeep

sometimes he'd tp with me and just not aggro quick enough and die 😂

[tulip galleon]

more just he keps not moving when I tell him to lol

[next wedge]

I have a terrible suggestion, I been thinking on how to make it work, profane veil zombies with sacrifice relic

[chilly star]

when should i switch from leveling build to Stygian coal? i already got the coal and im on a fresh character, immediatly go for stygian on level 36 when i can equip it ?

[unborn hedge]

i think there is an issue with minions entering tombs

[obtuse quest]

Yes but you gotta land hits on them after they got cursed with bone curse. And to yourself of course

[obtuse quest]

Chalice

[next wedge]

Was devided between that and the ashes of orchirian 🤔 trying to make a thematic vampire build with the chaos bolt ripblood thing

Maehlin's hubris works with the chaos bolt convertion to make it only ignite right?

[obtuse quest]

If chaos bolt has bleed, yes

[jade herald]

Whats the best necro build currently?

[daring holly]

yeah thats what i meant it would apply kill threshold on myself

so if i go low life i just die cuz id have less than 12% hp?

[next wedge]

alright, then I will be back with a scuffed build eventually!

[jade herald]

Is necromancer any good this season?

Want to try it out before i hop to another class

[wheat nexus]

@chrome mason do you have a plannerfor ur char? im curious about the items

[delicate belfry]

how can you be in perma reaper form?

as stygian coal

[crisp ridge]

u cant, youll eventually lose it if u stop hitting

beyond that its a lot of leech

witchfire is kidna nice at lagon 🤔 both tentacles have witchfire on them 24/7

[obtuse quest]

Only if you take a hit

[daring holly]

Need a ring and helmet upgrade asap

Praying for red ring mostly

[vivid valve]

Anyone did Uber abberoth or 1000corr yet as Aco?

I see primalist , rogue, and sentinel have

[sly bay]

Hello guys!

I've been away from the game since official launch, played until pretty high corruption on multiple classes, and I really liked reaper form builds despite it not being very meta.

Has it received changes since launch and are they good atm?

[next wedge]

If I take Physical swap node on harvest, does the shread node become phy shred instead of necrotic?

[chrome mason]

Lich is pretty good right now with the general health buffs, Stygian Coal and Infernal shade being the most popular builds

[sly bay]

Oh so it's not exactly reap but more like... use the lich buffs to dish out dmg with beam ?

[chrome mason]

Yah, most lich builds just utilize reaper form for the offensive/defensive buffs and then play around another skill

[delicate belfry]

cries in mage

[chrome mason]

But you can definitely play just around pure Reaper form Reap/Harvest

[autumn elbow]

It's my plan too, Moa, will report back in one or two weeks once i've gathered the necessary gear

[obtuse quest]

If it doesn't say so, then it doesn't.

[next wedge]

fair enough

[wide bronze]

how do u guarantee stat on 1LP item these season?

[autumn elbow]

Temporal sanctum 2 or above. Maybe 3 idk

Didnt slam anything yet

[crisp ridge]

2 or above

[chrome mason]

Guys any way to know which harbinger i've already killed?

I thought i just did my tenth at 300 corruption but apparantly not

[crisp ridge]

click y, go to fsction, go to harbingers

[chrome mason]

Oooooh

Dope ty

[crisp ridge]

how do normal warlocks scale their defensives? im focusing pretty heavily on it and i still feel pretty squishy

[chrome mason]

Aberroth unlocked lets see if i can murder em

[pearl snow]

Ward generation, block if you use a 1h (cradle of the erased is good for it), health leech, bone armor from transplant or another skill

[crisp ridge]

yea im contemplating a shield but dunno

using 3x items with ward for missing hp but still squishier than id like

[vivid valve]

Yeah mage has no chance. Aco I can see it tho

We can scale well

[tulip galleon]

When you do the 3 bosses of a timeline, does that reset the whole map/layout nodes

[pearl snow]

You might need more hp then. Are you low life or just hybrid ward and hp

[pearl snow]

No, the timeline quests on the left dont reset the web

[charred fiber]

My lazy fire necromancer build with lots of minions was absolutely demolished as soon as I hit the first monolith. Will I need to respec or will I need to steer towards a Golem or Super Mage build?

[crisp ridge]

lowlife

[wide bronze]

does item need to have 4 stats to be able to be traded on 1 LP item?

[pearl snow]

Hp % and flat hp nodes will help a lot if you have none. Same with idols since you can scoop up Ward retention, hp, or ward per second

Hp suffixes

[crisp ridge]

struggling so bad to get hybrid hp sadly 😔

[pearl snow]

Yeah thats the rough part of low life. I like slapping on Cradle for Warlock its such an easy defensive layer if you feel squishy and scale well

[pearl snow]

Yeah, by trade you mean put the stats on the 1 Lp

[crisp ridge]

ill try it and see how it feels. my dmg is pretty overkill atm

[wide bronze]

does it take purple stats or u can take white aswell

[pearl snow]

Depends on how well your minions are scaled. Im not a necro guy but I’m sure most could scale enough for normal monos

[pearl snow]

Both, Temporal Sanctum tier 2 and above will let you choose 1 stat guaranteed

So you can guarantee a 1lp

[wide bronze]

okii

what about 2 LP ? u have to slam it?

[pearl snow]

Yeah the 2nd stat is rng

[wide bronze]

so here I need to add 1 stat to be able to LP it?

[pearl snow]

Yep

[crisp ridge]

yes

[wide bronze]

damn crazy rng

[granite raven]

got this bad boy from the waven tree talent

[crisp ridge]

just so im thinkin of right item, cradle is the WW shield right? circular

[pearl snow]

Yeah, I’ve gotten so many

[crisp ridge]

same and ive been ditching them lmao

atleast i have heaps of the glyph ti skip the killing

[pearl snow]

Yep and weed out any weird rolls

Think im running block effectiveness and t6 crit reduction atm

[crisp ridge]

unsure if i want that shield or somethin else, but ill spend some time checkin tommorow

[echo basin]

guys, do you still take ashen one+grimhilde's domain if you use the downfall relic?

[crisp ridge]

is the medusa shield worth it 🤔

[pearl snow]

Is that the one that petrifies?

[crisp ridge]

yea

[opal marten]

Is wraithlord still viable? didnt saw any build for s2

[pearl snow]

I think a fair amount are playing it still yeah

[pearl snow]

I’m not at the computer, which nodes are those?

[echo basin]

the witchfire ones

[obtuse quest]

Not taking grimhilde is throwing the build, it's a whole %more modifier.

[pearl snow]

Yeah those nodes are good

[obtuse quest]

You'll need to make some changes, pure army is known to hit a wall VERY early. Dread shade?

[crisp ridge]

i am taking them, bit more consistent

[obtuse quest]

There's an argument to be made to not needing to max ashen, but grimhilde is a whole scaling.

[crisp ridge]

idk which is which off top of my head

[charred fiber]

Yeah. I skilled into the perma-dread shade.

[obtuse quest]

Ashen is the OG witchfire node that gives % inc necrotic and elemental damage.

[obtuse quest]

Did you give your fire minions crit with something like logi's hunger?

[echo basin]

lol yeah ty, I feel I did a lot more damage taking it

[crisp ridge]

just checked and i have 5 in each

[chilly star]

when should i switch from leveling build to Stygian coal? i already got the coal and im on a fresh character, immediatly go for stygian on level 36 when i can equip it ?

[crisp ridge]

wheneber u feel like it

[chilly star]

lol

idk when the build is effective due to skill levels and passive tree

[obtuse quest]

When you can equip coal and can access Drain life

[vivid valve]

Id think fissure is still better for lvling

[crisp ridge]

probably is

[vivid valve]

Since coal build needs some crit or whatever

For laddle on coal build where is the flat DMG comming from btw

[chrome mason]

Reroll time

[crisp ridge]

howd ur abby go?

[vivid valve]

Are you COF?

[chrome mason]

Yea

[chrome mason]

Got to like 40% before i got onetapped

But i have like

4 slams waiting to happen

[crisp ridge]

oh yikes

[vivid valve]

Seems like everyone is COf and MG is no good

[crisp ridge]

wut

[fringe anvil]

MG op

[vivid valve]

Oh

[chrome mason]

MG is already ruined from gold duping lmao

[fringe anvil]

just less fun imo

[chrome mason]

also i'm on offline so

[crisp ridge]

ignoring fun factor, mg is better

[chrome mason]

Nice another 3LP ladle

2x 2LP ladle, 1x 3LP ladle and 1x 2LP coal

[vivid valve]

All the super geared people seem to be cof

[chrome mason]

rest was all bust

[crisp ridge]

all mine rolled terrible using that thing lmao

but i did reroll my relics stats with the other woven echo and got a big boost

[chrome mason]

I got pretty lucky here tbh

Also i'm at CoF 11 so i have alot of LP chance

[vivid valve]

Which build killed Uber Abberoth on acolyte so far

[crisp ridge]

dam cof 11

think im 9 maybe 10

[obtuse quest]

No info.

[vivid valve]

Is anyone here MG?

[lavish axle]

no but im just a lazy pos

[chrome mason]

Time to slam and pray it hits HP

[red harness]

yoo lp3 thats sick

im still praying for mine with lp

[crisp ridge]

is coal lich looking like it can beat uber?

[red harness]

I got this tho

[vivid valve]

Lp1 pretty cheap on mg. or buy two cheap lp0 and imprint

[red harness]

im cof

[vivid valve]

Is infernal shade possibly better than coal build

[crisp ridge]

possibly yes

[vivid valve]

Nice

Does that build use lich or necro

[crisp ridge]

infernal shade?

can use any of the 3

[obtuse quest]

Crit version is better on lich.

[crisp ridge]

lich with zombies
necro with zombies or on skeles
warlock with spirita to consume

[exotic topaz]

this video is fire

makes me wanna play necromancer

look at that ward man

20k

[lavish axle]

Has anyone gotten a solid blight weaver staff?

[unborn hedge]

i wonder if having 2.6k hp and 3k ward for vessel of strife hybrid build is enough

[autumn elbow]

Does the new altar that changes attributes care about forging potential?

[unborn hedge]

or low life would be better for necro

any thoughts about it?

[chilly star]

huge for my alt

poggers

[lavish axle]

zooming

[exotic topaz]

gotta go fast

[lavish axle]

18 perm minions....need more for my zerg

[vivid valve]

Oh so I guess no acolyte has killed Uber yet

[tulip galleon]

How good is + damage for minions vs like %?

[crisp ridge]

both are good

most cases u use a combo

[lavish axle]

yeah I use some of both

higher + dmg makes % bonuses stronger

[crisp ridge]

if u have a lot of %, the flat is impactful, and vice cersa

so u want both

[lavish axle]

and the new idols with all that minion pen bonus help too

[red harness]

anyone got a build guide for stygian coal lich

[chrome mason]

use the maxroll one

[wintry flame]

Liz was trying to do it last night in Offline. He’s done it before, but it’s a tough fight

[crisp ridge]

its looking doable tho?

[wide bronze]

u can teleport to maps all the time in coop play? lmao

[red harness]

hows mapping like for u

[chrome mason]

Easy

At 300 corruption rn just flying through maps

[red harness]

any heavy gear req apart from the obvious coal/laddle?

[chrome mason]

Reap + Transplant and then just popping bosses/ elites

nah not really

Orian's is really easy to get 2LP, same with Coal

[radiant helm]

Is it possible to have strong minion build without snapshotting

[chrome mason]

and if u get Orian's with a good int roll, slam hp% and hybrid health on it youre super set to get to easy c300

Just get as MUCH int as you can

like, every exalted affix u have should be int apart from the ones where u cant roll int

Int = Damage from scaling
Int = Stygian Beam Frequency
Int = Cast speed from ladle
Int = Mana from Warlock node
Mana = Damage from Coal

[red harness]

okie

[chrome mason]

like, its SO important

[obtuse quest]

How strong do you want it to be?

[red harness]

gearing in wraithlord build seems pretty rough

[radiant helm]

If anyone remembers old school Poe 1 fire golem builds where you sprint as fast as you can through maps while they aoe wipe everything... That's what I want again.

[red harness]

do u have red rings?

[chrome mason]

nop

i need a helmet and rings upgrade BADDD

and my new boots

and i have 2lp coal, 3lp ladle and 2lp gloves waiting to slam

[red harness]

i see

[chrome mason]

If youre struggling with survivability, just farm 2lp orians and ukheiros

[wide bronze]

is going back to echoes all the time intentional?

if u teleport to friend

[red harness]

i have lp1 orian but it has low int roll oof

[red harness]

how much ehp do u have

[hardy sapphire]

Is there some uniques i want to chase when playing fire minion summoner?

[wintry flame]

if going crit Logi's, phantom grip rings, if you have crit find a good rolled death rattle for crit multi

Farm a +2 skele mage staff for + levels and +2 mages if running mages too

[obtuse quest]

Ye, but you already lose the clear reward.

[obtuse quest]

Logi's.

[ruby quest]

How good would I say is the Wraithlord Necromancer 🙂

[hardy sapphire]

currently using 4 archers, 1 arch mage, 2 wraiths, golem and abomination (archer/mage only)

[glossy willow]

any cool tips for farming exs fissue chest?

[obtuse quest]

Meta.

[obtuse quest]

No dread shade?

[wintry flame]

just check the db and see what might be useful and obtainable https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/items/unique

[hardy sapphire]

used to have it, switched it to abomination when i realized i can make it last unlimited time without investment to life steal by using less but stronger other minions, and my mage teleport brings all of my minions with me

literally walking simulator build with instant teleport to minion bomb whatever i want to die instantly

We cant get extra skill slots right? Kinda tempted to go dread shade + fire skull thingy to both buff minions

[obtuse quest]

No, only 5.

[hardy sapphire]

but then i have to work out resummoning and quite frankly, nah to that

[lavish axle]

yeah Im playing the laziest cold minion build lol.

[hardy sapphire]

I dont have to do anything but walk, dodge and teleport my way to faster get to next echo 😄

everything dies as i run past them

[chrome mason]

8,231

[obtuse quest]

There's a unique ring that solves that.

[lavish axle]

i might switch things up and really pump necrotic dmg and rely on shades dmg bonus and like 50 stacks of damned

[pure grail]

Has anyone tried the new Weaver items for summons? One is a catalyst and one is a staff. They seem pretty good!

[lavish axle]

i havent gotten any good weaver procs on staff, but the base item is nice

[violet forge]

the damage increase from Lone Watcher (Dread Shade) is affected by Enemy of my Enemy or it counts as health drain?

[lavish axle]

The necklace is decent too

[wintry flame]

I got the staff need to check it

You can take any build to the moon with snapshotting especially on Necro lmao even yourself

[obtuse quest]

Counts as health drain.

[exotic topaz]

what's going on

I'm running aboms just using that node that stops the decay if you have less than 6 mages

2 wraiths, 5 mages, a golem, the abom and dread shade

[hardy sapphire]

y no archers?

[exotic topaz]

I ditched skeletons because they dealt too little dmg

[hardy sapphire]

hmmm

gotta try replacing my archmage with mass of mages and archers with dread shade or something

but thats gonna nerf my volley potential like hell

or is it 😮

[exotic topaz]

dread shade gives flat dmg to everything in it's aura so having more minions gives you more dmg

that's why I didn't use archmage and opted for 4 mages instead

[hardy sapphire]

good point

back to planning board 😄

[lavish axle]

same, and with my mage and skele army I hit like 60 stacks of damned almost instantly. With necrotic dmg and dot bonuses they are melting everything, at least in the early empowereds. We'll see how well it does when I start pushing corruption levels

[chilly star]

Can someone quickly break down how to efficiently level? Chapter 5 and then go to monos ?

i tried normal monos on level 30 and i can beat them already

[scarlet crypt]

~~hey yall, hopefully this is a simple question (that I don't want to lab out), but what does "wraith interval" mean? I thought it meant the cooldown or something, ~~ nevermind. it seems the "echoes inside" node that precedes mentions of a wraith interval puts down an invisible portal that summons wraiths up to an "amount per summon", and has an "interval" between each one generated. (hopefully this helps a future person)

[scarlet crypt]

the issue of leveling is so ubiquitous to the gameplay experience... is this about it being acolyte specific? is this on softcore? are you willing to respec into the latest leveling build, or are you looking for which areas maximize the exp gains? ... I wouldn't doubt there are a lot of resources that talk about maximizing xp gains, regardless of class

[ashen bluff]

<_< I mean the tiers are least high

[chilly star]

its an alt character, i just dont wanna do the whole campaign again

i got enough uniques/legendary dumped on my low level character that i can already do monos

but i still want the +1 on all, isnt there a way to cut the campaign short?

[obtuse quest]

Clearing T1 dungeons, they're shortcuts.

[chilly star]

i want to get to the Bazaar as quickly as possible due to trading

[vivid valve]

Bazar seems cooked

[lavish axle]

dont you have access to both in act 1 on alts?

[chilly star]

im brainded, ur right

omg

[vivid valve]

Don't you still have to do some quests

Quests

My warlock is lvl 30 I wanna power level him somehow

[agile creek]

Hey guys! Almost done with the campaign with my Chaos Bolts/Fissure Acolyte. Enjoying it quite a bit, but starting to feel “squishy”. Using this build, and wondering if I should be planning something different for end game. https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/warlock-leveling-guide

[obtuse quest]

Yes.

[vivid valve]

I'm gonna go infernal shade crit build but can't really get it going until 66

[scarlet crypt]

hello person from past. I notice you. just saying that I notice you. hope you're well.

[austere breach]

😔 same issue everytime I try to make a build keep dying as soon as I hit empowered mono

[chrome mason]

Focus on your defenses first

[austere breach]

beside this, res cap, as much int as I can

idk what to do

first time playing aco

[chrome mason]

Your damage should come from a few key big multipliers, which are often easy to get, whether its a unique, the skill nodes itself or a generic multiplier like crit. Meanwhile getting your defenses up comes from capping res, stacking hp, armor endurance and crit avoidance

[chrome mason]

Show your whole defense statlist

[austere breach]

I have this

but it get lower when I map

[wide bronze]

best way to level up trading faction?

[chrome mason]

Exp nodes in mono and trading ur offering

[wide bronze]

trading ur offering u mean selling items?

[chrome mason]

No, buying prophecies

[austere breach]

@chrome masonim trying to get as much necr res, ward treshold, ward per s as I can

[chrome mason]

Spending your favor to buy prophecies also gives you faction rep

[chrome mason]

Are you just at empowered monos? 100c?

[austere breach]

yes

[chrome mason]

Cause i feel like you have enough defense to not really struggle hmm

[austere breach]

I died 10 time on this boss

maybe it's just this boss

[vivid valve]

What build

[austere breach]

self made build

[chrome mason]

It could just be the boss yeah, some bosses have attacks that penetrate res, but theyre usually very dodgeable telegraphed attacks

[austere breach]

heart of the hive

it's a wofven echoes

he summon,s tons of adds

[chrome mason]

oh that mfer is tough

even ive struggled with it and im at c300

[austere breach]

im trying to build around wandering spirit

I saw the new unique

so Im doing necro dmg over time

spirit plague, wandering spiritg + profane veil

and added torment with chtonic fissure

[exotic topaz]

how is it going

is it fun?

I always found spirits too slow to target enemies

[austere breach]

I like it

I mostly use wandering spirit for single target

big rares

like champion

gives me bynch of ward per sec

[vivid valve]

Anyone here play infernal shade crit lich

[quartz dragon]

Anyone able to help with a filter? ;D

[austere breach]

I'm so bad at this game ngl

😭

[wide bronze]

does that still works for me even if im not opening maps?

[exotic topaz]

opening maps

[vivid valve]

So hard to find videos of people who are acolyte and mage in end game this patch

Opposite of pretty much any other patch lol

[chrome mason]

Think most people shy'd away from Acolyte because of it getting (or at least Lich) major reworks in 1.3

and idk mage is just

Not too bad tbh

10% playrate with Lich as well

[vivid valve]

That one guy who got infernal shade lich to 1400 last season is playing it again. Should be higher now with a lot more DMG and hp

[chrome mason]

Its just literally half the entire game is playing sentinel xdd\

[red harness]

man I need a coal to drop already

[austere breach]

another map I struggle with two guy running fast at me and if I try to cast a spell I get insta popped

[vivid valve]

I need to get 66 so I can wear shade lich gloves and ring

[austere breach]

I have 2K ward but 3 hit per s and it's gone

[swift steppe]

I find the attribute changing woven echo + this one is very hard for warlock since your are prone to stun/melee

[quartz dragon]

why so many void knights lol

[elfin lodge]

Yeah I just winged warlock randomly as a new player and I see two builds on maxroll that aren't even close to what I'm doing. I have no idea how my build is even functioning.

[austere breach]

everyone play op stuff

[obtuse quest]

New and op.

[swift steppe]

Reworked, OP. It's like when warlock released.

I expect lich in 1.3 to be overplayed

[austere breach]

i struggle less in poe 1 making my own build 🥲

[vivid valve]

Mages are usually popular in games it's also that mage seems kinda bad atm

Hasn't been this relatively weak since alpha

[elfin lodge]

At what point in LE do you discover if your build is bad

[swift steppe]

empowered monos

[austere breach]

empowered mono ?

[elfin lodge]

Alright I'm on my last non empowered so I guess I'm about to find out

[swift steppe]

I think it's because a lot of mage related skills and ward being nerfed

[vivid valve]

Yeah over nerfed mage it seems

[quartz dragon]

I dont think its new, i feel like i played VK hammerdin last patch

[obtuse quest]

Two skills got reworked and half their passive tree got reworked so.

Hammerdin has always been and still is good, but new op builds got opened up.

[quartz dragon]

so not quite new just reworked ;D

[wide bronze]

why does minion lose hp even with these?

[void mesa]

guys can you use dread shade and infernal shade on minions at the same time?

[obtuse quest]

Uniques? Dread shade?

[obtuse quest]

Yes

[elfin lodge]

This is what I'm doing btw. Found this message through search. I swapped everything to fire, gearing for dot/ignite, and using ghost flame/infernal shade over spirit plague and wandering spirit. Profane viel as my nuke.

[wide bronze]

uniqued all items and no shade on

[elfin lodge]

It's working, but idk if the poison from spirits is doing much or anything

[void mesa]

when i cas dread it cancels infernal

and viceversa

on abomination

[obtuse quest]

What uniques do you have.,

[obtuse quest]

Do you have uniques equipped?

[wide bronze]

removed all items and still losing hp

[obtuse quest]

Then i'm not too sure.

[tawdry rock]

Can I get some help understanding a node? The way I read this is, if I cast soul feast and the number of cursed targets around me are less than 4, then up to 4 enemies around me will be Marked for Death

Is that accurate? Because that isn't what is happening

[void mesa]

yea i have uniques

why?

[little yarrow]

why is whole of Lich available to Necromancer as a single skill?

[obtuse quest]

That's the idea, yes. If there's less than 4 enemies cursed, the node will curse enemies with MoD until there's 4 cursed enemies.

Eg: 2 cursed enemies before cast, the node will MoD 2 random nearby enemies.

[obtuse quest]

?

[obtuse quest]

There's a 2h axe(?) unique that locks your shade count to 1.

[austere breach]

feels like with the skill tree everything is kinda on rail but half of those rails are broken annd you find out when u arrive to empowered mono

but yeah obviously going ignite would work

[little yarrow]

just a joke, summon wraith

[obtuse quest]

KEK

[tawdry rock]

But if I am in a 1v1 against a boss, and he is cursed, would he get Marked for Death?

[obtuse quest]

No, because he's already cursed.

[exotic topaz]

need to make my minions stronger

[old hull]

Are they dying? If not, it's a unique staff effect snapshotted on them, resummon

[austere breach]

@elfin lodgedmg im doing okay, bit low but since im barely scrapping by I can't really sacrifice a lot for defence, bad choice of build I guess so I just die quite often 🥲

I did like 7 or 8 build in 1.0 and only one was popping off like crazy because I choose a meta skill by chance e so I was popping off and could invest in defense quite a lot 😮

[elfin lodge]

Yeah I'm swapping damage for ward in my relics, but still if I'm not channeling or clearing with infernal shade I feel like paper

[austere breach]

explosive trap was pretty fun

[elfin lodge]

Nuke being profane veil seems kinda safe though

[austere breach]

true

I like the build but im getting tired of dying in one second

[elfin lodge]

Yeah lol

[austere breach]

like I get hit 3 time in one second

and im dead

also my ward isn't generating with insane number

[tawdry rock]

Node seems useless against bosses then

[pearl snow]

Unless there is an add phase

[obtuse quest]

Correct! it's only good for clear, not even that good even.

[tawdry rock]

I need single target dps

Why does decrepify only have 2 sources of applications ?!

[elfin lodge]

I don't know what's doing it, but if a rare dies while I'm channeling ghost flame I'll pick up almost a 4k shield

Wish I could keep it

[pearl snow]

Decrepify isn’t a mainline DoT like Ignite or Bleed etc. so it’s not something easy to build on

[pearl snow]

Acolyte of the erased?

Relic

[obtuse quest]

The relic?

[elfin lodge]

Oh okay yeah I have that

[austere breach]

ghostflame seems really cool

[tawdry rock]

I might have to switch to ghostflame for single target

[elfin lodge]

It stacks ignite super fast

[tawdry rock]

I am poison build though

[elfin lodge]

I probably have my skill tree wrong for it, but I like the detached skull

[austere breach]

btw you could also take the shotgun hungering souls

stayed necro dmg

maybe it would stack damned

[elfin lodge]

Yeah I need to swap spirits out

I don't think it's really doing anything

[austere breach]

me Im just doing fissure => spirit plague => wandering spirit profane veil

kinda my rotation

got some cdr

only have to wait a few sec

for wandering spirit

[elfin lodge]

For some reason I thought the poison was buffing veil, but I don't think it works that way?

[austere breach]

no idea I'm doing necrotic dmg over time

and not damned

[elfin lodge]

Ah okay

[austere breach]

I tried to stack as many necrotic dmg over time as I could that made sense with each other

[tawdry rock]

Veil is buffing poison by giving me a global 25% multiplier and spreading poison stacks everytime I Marked for Death an enemy

[atomic violet]

is there a way to only summon skeleton archers?

[lavish axle]

node on the left hand side

locks out all others

[atomic violet]

ty

[wide bronze]

any wraithlord build I can follow?

for S2

[next wedge]

Hello, can someone explain to me how this works? Is it for DoTs applied by chaos bolt (basically the ignite and damned)? So no witchfire or other curses I assume?

[atomic violet]

do you know if archers or warriors are better?

[swift steppe]

I wonder how long it will take before the off-hand catalyst bug in the weaver tree node is fixed. I am dying for catalyst upgrades

[lavish axle]

I think its more based on the build your going for. I use archers in my cold minions build.

[atomic violet]

last question, what tag do i search for to increase the number of maximum minions to see how many i can get? from uniques and what not.

[lavish axle]

Theres only a handful of uniques that will raise the cap, along with passive nodes in the skill, as well as your class tree. I think with the uniques its 10 for skele and 7 for mages.

[atomic violet]

great ty

[lavish axle]

np

[chrome mason]

gdi i lost the 50/50

[wide bronze]

Why does people use both?

[next wedge]

pathing to the slow i assume

[wide bronze]

I guess

yea

[mild wedge]

than aod should allow me to leech off myself as well than?

or were you just talking about the skill node

[tawdry rock]

Wait, how are you getting 400% poison pen?

[mild wedge]

That's poison overloads gimmick

it converts poison into pre nerf poison, and everyone shares the misery

[tribal wren]

This is only 150 corruption, ofc I shouldn't get hit by it, but how am I supposed to generally survive? Playing as a Warlock. I have around 1.5k life and usually 1.5k - 2k ward. Am I more supposed to have ward in the 5k range or more?

[tawdry rock]

I get 1 shot with 4k ward at corruption 100

[mild wedge]

some abilities in this game hit way harder than others.

[tawdry rock]

I have been trying to see it in LETools but can't find it

[obtuse quest]

Yes, you effectively negate a small amount of the self poison.

[obtuse quest]

Your total of health+ward should be 5k+

[obtuse quest]

LETools doesn't have the overloads listed for somereason.

[tawdry rock]

So how do I find out what it does?

[obtuse quest]

• X Max Skeletons is the skeleton example.
  Hard cap is 13 with all possible sources.

[obtuse quest]

In-game warlock passive tree's alt text explains them.

[tawdry rock]

Do enemies have more than 75% poison res?

[mild wedge]

shouldi be fine as long as i turn it off when outside of combat than since its instant right?

[obtuse quest]

Enemies have 0 by default.
Res can go into negatives.

[obtuse quest]

The aura is but the poison stacks aren't.

[tawdry rock]

so then there is no difference between poison shred/pen/lower res?

[obtuse quest]

Pen is separate multiplier wise compared to shred and res.

[mild wedge]

if your wondering why im banging my head against the wall

[compact sorrel]

can I have dread shade AND infernal shade on my wraithlord? looks like only one buff can be active

[mild wedge]

the goal is to abuse aspect of death to have permenant poison overload

[obtuse quest]

Yes,unless you're using a specific unique.

[tawdry rock]

poison overload is pretty easy to get 100% uptime

with 100 stacks

[mild wedge]

yeah

[tawdry rock]

without killing yourself with AoD

[obtuse quest]

Overloads have no CD so.

[mild wedge]

its the self 90 stacks

[compact sorrel]

sorry they can be both active? im confused:D

[tawdry rock]

yea... I dont use that node cause I am too lazy to turn it on and off

but you can still get 100% uptime

[obtuse quest]

Yes.

[compact sorrel]

how to do that? i cant

[obtuse quest]

Check if a unique is preventing you.

[exotic topaz]

you can only have max 4 btw

2 infernals 2 dreads

maybe that's what's stopping you?

[compact sorrel]

you mean unique node or item?

[obtuse quest]

item

[compact sorrel]

hmm let me check

im using scales of lemniscate weapon

[obtuse quest]

There's your problem.

[compact sorrel]

right thank you guys

[mild wedge]

what if just use aura for the less poison damage taken

[tawdry rock]

That is what I currently am trying out

[mild wedge]

does it seem to self murder you?

[tawdry rock]

not at all

[mild wedge]

Are you warlock?

[tawdry rock]

Yea

Only the infinite scaling node will kill you

But you can just turn it off and on again

[mild wedge]

so since self inflicted suffering is the goal

maybe something like this

[tawdry rock]

Oh if you want to kill yourself then yea

[vivid valve]

Thank god, shade build doesn't
use red rings in bis

Shots too pricey in MG

[mild wedge]

the goal isn't to but if i was in a duel would i be able to leech that back from a boss @tawdry rock ?

[tawdry rock]

Oh I am not sure of any poison leech

I just use a low life build

[obtuse quest]

The damage happens before you leech, so if you take too much you'll die first.

[little yarrow]

I don't understand "self curse" shenanigans with Warlock

I only know of self-curse with bone curse, but why would I do that? gigacursing myself just to get couple hundred ward every few secs?

[tawdry rock]

Stuff like this:

[little yarrow]

I meant this

but for that, I'd need like 100 damned stacks on myself for only 20% more dmg

[tawdry rock]

I suppose a low life build can trigger that every 5 seconds

[little yarrow]

3500 necro dot, np

[mild wedge]

some builds get a lot out of inflicitng themelves with ailments

[obtuse quest]

There's always that one affix everyone neglects.

[compact sorrel]

is it possible for dread shade to never ends? if yes is there any node for it?

[tawdry rock]

Man, why is it that decrepify is the help to my single target dps...

[little yarrow]

btw, is this global chance?

[lavish axle]

Yes its call lone watcher

[mild wedge]

yes

[pearl snow]

Yes it should be

[chrome mason]

abby down 🫡

[pearl snow]

Gamer

[hardy sapphire]

If i want to craft logi's, do i need to do it on bone amulet base or can it be any amulet base?

[pearl snow]

Should be any amulet base

The description of the Rune of Ascendence should be pretty thorough

[little yarrow]

is witchfire build any good?

[pearl snow]

DoTs for lock is good so yeah

Plenty of ways to Witchfire

[little yarrow]

just one thing that I dont understand from reading witchfire

if I have Grimhilde's domain

do I apply witchfire with every hit during damned/fire overload?

[obtuse quest]

It... currently never ends.

[obtuse quest]

Yes.

[pearl snow]

Your Hits spread witchfire so I don’t think you’ll be stacking it on lets say ST

[little yarrow]

no, I won't stack obviously

but will I reapply if I use e.g. rip blood on a boss, when I have Damned overload?

[pearl snow]

Witchfire from the tree is only applied whenever you gain Overload so it’d be before that rip blood cast

Or on that cast if it proccd a overload

[tropic bobcat]

Anyone on corrupted monos with death seal lich? I’m there at level 85 but dying a bit more commonly now. Also cant really do julra t3 so cant slam my uniques with LP which would be a huge upgrade for me

[obtuse quest]

No, it spreads witchfire from affects enemies to unaffected enemies.

[chrome mason]

huge

[exotic topaz]

dude, nice

[obtuse quest]

Oh DAMN

[pearl snow]

Big ol pot belly

[little yarrow]

but how do I clear then? gain overload, apply it to pack, kill pack, no more witchfire for next 6 seconds?

[pearl snow]

What skill are you using for Witchfire

There is also a Relic which stacks Witchfire over a set period of time I believe

[obtuse quest]

That's the problem... during 1.1.

Now, we have the relic to fix that problem.

[little yarrow]

I see

no skill for witchfire as of yet
I am remaking my Acolyte - Lich that I played was super boring, now I am making curse-based witchfire Warlock

[obtuse quest]

The relic constantly applies witchfire around us as long as we have both ignite and damned overload.

[pearl snow]

Once I get that relic I gotta revisit my Chaos Bolt damned ignite setup

[little yarrow]

now I just have to figure out how to get survivability and penetration on this build

[obtuse quest]

Mine rolled like an ass

[little yarrow]

does flat spell damage apply to DoT curses like Spirit Plague?

[quartz dragon]

same with ignite overload ;D

[obtuse quest]

If they are a spell, yes.
For spirit plague, yes.

[tawdry rock]

AoD 😔

[obtuse quest]

See, If I still had the sanity to deal with this skill I would complain about it.

Can't even use Tongue Aberrant to boost it

[tawdry rock]

Lol yep, even though I still run it

[quartz dragon]

is it normal for a dungeon to not drop unique item?

[chilly star]

anyone down to share their woven tree? dunno which route i should go besides the obvious

[tawdry rock]

This is what I am doing. I doubt its any good but it is getting me some decent items so far:

[vivid valve]

Can you put the same item in both

And double chance

[obtuse quest]

Yes if the slots allow it.

[vivid valve]

Nice

I guess that makes MG a bit smoother now. Buy two lp0 and focus farm

[torn nexus]

Any aura of decay builds out there anyone can share? 🙂

[obtuse quest]

@tawdry rock Do you want to take the mantle, I'm keeping my rage.

[tawdry rock]

Lol

[torn nexus]

Well then I guess that’s a no xD

[tawdry rock]

I am trying to get my build

and you can see it

[torn nexus]

Sorry didn’t want to offend lol

[tawdry rock]

Not sure how to import

Got it

[torn nexus]

I see I got 2 idols that boost damage on it

[tawdry rock]

feel free to ask any questions

[torn nexus]

Thank you

[tawdry rock]

Yea it's good cause it can boost all poison damage

[torn nexus]

Yeah How did you level? I’m 32 rn

[tawdry rock]

fissure

its really strong

even minions until they start dying often

[granite raven]

this any good for a build?

[quartz dragon]

is it normal for soulfire bastion to not drop uniques?

[lavish axle]

its kinda just meh, can work till you find something better. But I am using the new weaver staff for minions

[wide bronze]

why does people use these and not activating it?

[obtuse quest]

No, it normally drops one.
Pool: 3 uniques 1 set.

[quartz dragon]

weird, i did 4 dungeons didnt even drop a single unique

[obtuse quest]

It COULD be the set.

It's a T2+ drop.

[quartz dragon]

no like all it dropped was rare and magic items xD

[obtuse quest]

My condolences I guess

[quartz dragon]

cuz i need the ring from him

[pearl snow]

Thats some rng dear god

[pearl snow]

Like you never saw them cast it in a video?

[tawdry rock]

If I do temp sanctum at higher tiers, am I able to guarentee more than 1 mod?

[obtuse quest]

No, it's only 1.

[wide bronze]

nop

[pearl snow]

Probably just didn’t use it then. Does seem weird though. I’m sure whatever build it is has a purpose for it though

[wide bronze]

maybe yea

[pearl snow]

Its use case might be mentioned somewhere

Not might but should

[atomic violet]

The 4 (3) Golem build. Not meta, needs a rare unique.

what unique is this?

[old hull]

Aaron's Will

[quartz dragon]

well okay nemesis xD

[pearl snow]

Now reroll the regen into extra proj for CB

I believe in you

[quartz dragon]

i dont even play CB

[pearl snow]

[quartz dragon]

what even builds are there with CB?

[pearl snow]

DoT or Crit

Can choose full bleed, bleed & ignite, damned and ignite which prob means witchfire now

[buoyant path]

this is being applied to myself because i made it an aura right? is it worth speccing into for the damage conversion even though my resists get cut

[quartz dragon]

finally after the 5th try

[pearl snow]

Poggers

[buoyant path]

please help brothas

[pearl snow]

Oh I remember farming that now

[obtuse quest]

Yes, you'll apply it to yourself.

[pearl snow]

Mark for Death is great so I’d say worth it

25% all Res kinda sucks but there are ways to make it up

[quartz dragon]

and its 0 lp so thats nice

[buoyant path]

alright thanks i thought so too

[torn nexus]

@tawdry rock if you put last bears lament on or imprint it on gear your health regen will sky rocket using AOD

[compact sorrel]

my infernal shade is killing my wraithlord, no idea how to fix it

[autumn mango]

There a sub build disc for acolyte?

Masterys

[quartz dragon]

lol nice

[atomic violet]

did they nerf rip blood golem ? im spamming it on my golem but bone shatter isn't procing

[obtuse quest]

No

[obtuse quest]

Bone shatter's bugged.

[tawdry rock]

Is that the helmet that does life regen set item? I am doing a low life build though so more ward retension and wps help mitigate the poison dmg

[atomic violet]

do you know what the best minion build is?

[torn nexus]

Yes while low life is viable didn’t ward get nerfed like crazy? Is it still good?

[obtuse quest]

Abom, wraithlord, archmage skeletal mage.

[autumn mango]

How’s rip blood over dread shade using the rip blood empower minions skill

[obtuse quest]

You're comparing a paper ball to an iron shot.

[tawdry rock]

Maybe, I didn't read the patch notes so I don't know what got nerfed or buffed. However, at 5k ward I feel pretty tanky with mostly maxed out res even with Marked for death

[torn nexus]

Right. I mean cause I’m just running through the campaign on your build literally XD I had the last bears lament. Stacking strength and Int is what ima do see how long I last

[autumn mango]

As in dread shade being way better right lol

[obtuse quest]

Correct.

[wide bronze]

can u remove item without losing it?

[tawdry rock]

When you put an item in it still stays in your inventory

so you never lose it

[old hull]

Items don't actually go in these slots, it just gets a snapshot of the item

[autumn mango]

Health or ward guys?

The skill that gives you ward on summon is pretty good

If I’m spamming wraiths

[red harness]

damn respeccing mastery costing me 650k gold 💀

[exotic topaz]

is there even any use for gold later on

[autumn mango]

@obtuse quest would you run ward with the summon grants ward passive for necro? Since I’m spamming wraiths anyway

[obtuse quest]

Sure, why not?

[autumn mango]

Over health ?

[obtuse quest]

Stashes are expensive-
Otherwise, lightless will love to have your millions.

[obtuse quest]

You could go hybrid.

[autumn mango]

Cool thanks dude

[marble palm]

I would highly recommend trying things out yourself to see what sits best with you.

Don’t be afraid to experiment

[torn nexus]

I won’t be afraid to experiment and this is a great place to get answers to questions too 🙂

[tawdry rock]

Is there anything I can do with this now to make it better?

[chrome mason]

Nope thats locked in

[obtuse quest]

It's screwed.

[tawdry rock]

😔

I mean I have 3 more but none are rolling LP on nemesis

[wise basalt]

What's better? (I play wraithlord)

[near quartz]

Any tips for fire necro builds? Not many guides out that aren’t for sentinel lol. Currently in the lvl 70 monolith

[near quartz]

Id assume left based off the offensive affixes alone

[wise basalt]

Yeah definitely

[heady wharf]

Torment warlock still cozy, reroll into lich for Uber boss later

[errant sapphire]

When you have loot filter, the red loot are upgrade or is red BAD? lol

[pearl snow]

it depends on your filter

[errant sapphire]

ohh maybe I should have read about that when I use the top one on a list lol

[pearl snow]

you get to choose the color of text drops so

could be anything

but if its showing on the filter its useful in some capacity

[autumn mango]

Is there anyone to show minion count other than the top left

[atomic violet]

what makes wraiths "wraithlord"

[wise basalt]

Is there even a better Amulett I could get at this point?

[pearl snow]

at level 49 prob not if you are minions

in terms of minion output

[wise basalt]

I'm 75 and play wraithlord

[atomic violet]

what is wraithlord

[wise basalt]

I have this Amulett for quite some time now

[autumn mango]

Is there anyway to show minion count other than the top left?

[pearl snow]

Well its not the best base, neither are the suffixes that great

so yes there are plenty of upgrades to get

[atomic violet]

ty

[wise basalt]

My wraithlord does like 30-50k damage 2 times a second lol

Braindead gameplay and I love it

[chilly star]

Does "Damage while channeling" increase the life drain dmg with Coal ?

[atomic violet]

link to your build?

[obtuse quest]

Only if you keep drain life as a channel

[wise basalt]

I don't have a single item, I just copied the skills and used the items I have

Still so strong

[obtuse quest]

Wait

They fixed return below

[pearl snow]

oh?

[obtuse quest]

And Apocalyse.

[dusky ember]

hi, any idea why dread shade takes hp even with lone watcher? 🤔

[pearl snow]

when did they fix those

[fading gull]

Is there a way to re-enchant the weaver affix on this?

[obtuse quest]

1.2 lmao

[obtuse quest]

Slap it back into the enchanter

[pearl snow]

lmao howd I miss that

[obtuse quest]

Is a unique causing it?

[fading gull]

I would do this in a new cemetery I assume?

[obtuse quest]

Yup

[fading gull]

Cheers mate

[obtuse quest]

Wait, this is our first version where apocolyse works.

….

Who’s up to cook zombies again?

[pearl snow]

Im a chef

[obtuse quest]

I’m actually not sure where we can get easy meat minion access for profane to eat apart from bone curse’s walls.

Then we stack int, and if we want to commit to the bit we can spec chaos bolts to hit the zombies for more explosion area and damage. If we need the zombies to sucide slower we can spec vomit

[pearl snow]

hmm

[dusky ember]

unequiped all items, i think im missing something 😅

[pearl snow]

I have this idea about the auto sac and the blood spectres but thats counter productive here

[obtuse quest]

Might have snap shotted, recast it and find out

[obtuse quest]

Somewhat counter productive I think
