Play perfectly, with a very strong clear speed build -> yeah that makes sense

I dont' think I have ever... EVER had a build THAT strong
cerulean sorrel
So now you understand that 300k pre 80 h is not that effect ive as i said
Well ye you can go 3 time slower , and still it will be fine, you will be able to get it in 2-3 evenings
supple iris
That's a big maybe. The RNGesus can still screw you. It's very VERY possible to go 1M, or even 2M favor without seeing one, if the drops just don't go in your favor.
runic phoenix
Hey guys, I am wondering is any of the masteries for Sentinel any more newbie friendly than others?
supple iris
The longer you go the less likely it is to keep not finding one, but for the very rare items, it can absolutely happen.
cerulean sorrel
Well ye, you just need to setup the map, void spawns are just 10-15 percents extra

Just avoid FG. The other two are great and have at least a few solid builds.

No one place unfortunately... letools is a thing, but there are a lot of "meh" builds floating around there too. maxroll has some good stuff, but is very limited on variety, same with YT
runic phoenix
I saw that many of the builds there are for an older version didnt see many guides for 1.1
turbid dome
Filter it to 1.1 or make your own with it imo
I can also throw you a basic void knight build in a minute
runic phoenix
I would make my own, but I am lacking very much on knowledge ๐
Im thinking of making an offline character and wondering between sentinel and rogue
cerulean sorrel
Last epoch is very good game to make your own builds btw. You will not be able to farm very fast etc but in most cases it will be still viable build . Also ppl here are helpful
runic phoenix
Oh wait, offline is down too?
supple iris
No, you can play offline. Chat even works ;P
quiet hearth
I wanna like rogue
runic phoenix
I just tried getting on, but I got an error
Do I need to start the game from somewhere else?
turbid dome
Steam should have a launch option for true offline
supple iris
I wanna like rogue
I know this sentiment very well. I used to always want to like VK, but it's actually very likeable now, finally. Rogue is too, if you are ok with Falconer ;P
cerulean sorrel
Read somewhere about full offline i guess
quiet hearth
Oh I know it's ok, I just hate how the playstyle feels
turbid dome
Blade dancer rogue is just void knight lite
runic phoenix
For my offline character I have been torn between Sentinel and Rogue (falconier)
quiet hearth
Sent is a solid 7/10 right now just kinda boring to play
cerulean sorrel
But again you can enjoynthe game on eveey class
supple iris
Sentinel is ehh i hope it will get some buffs
1k corr builds aren't good enough for you, eh?
cerulean sorrel
I mean you can push 1k on eveey class. Its good enough
Lets talk about real things. You can ask Misha forever sentinel main for example
He will say you that sentinel could get a buff
slow plaza
she* and yeah, sentinel is in a very awkward spot
its supposedly getting a lot of love next patch, we will see
cerulean sorrel
Ah sorry she
quiet hearth
'awkward' is certainly one word for it, it's good but feels off
supple iris
I think the problem is that some really cool build ideas based off uniques are JUST a little less powerful than they should be, and if you don't happen upon one of the really good builds, everything else is just... blah
turbid dome
yea
tribal basin
The 40 point skills in each class should feel like they are worth it
turbid dome
also just some stuff that doesn't really fit how the game works out
like Anomaly, an awesome design for a skill... why would I use it for the actual yeet enemies forward bit when time bubble is there
also future strike
tribal basin
And it feels as if some skills are still missing
turbid dome
the fact that this exists and future strike is still a meme
supple iris
And some builds need updating... Like autobomber VK was always a favorite back in the day, but it's bad now. They need to add insta-cast nodes to some of those and bring back the VK caster.
gusty abyss
cant even use that with void cleave ๐ฆ
turbid dome
cant even use that with void cleave ๐ฆ
well yeah its a staff
gusty abyss
yeah, VC needs a node to drop the weapon requirement
quiet hearth
it really do
but they would likely put it behind a 4 cost node that completely changes the skill
turbid dome
node that turns it into a spell and sends you backwards -> any weapon can use it node
quiet hearth
turbid dome
tbh a spell version of void cleave would be cool, have it create a big echo who does the attack
quiet hearth
Oh that part yes, not the backwards part
harsh nova
lunge > vc anyways
turbid dome
I mean void cleave yeeting you backwards would be nice for the corpse dragon
quiet hearth
For movement skill I 100% agree
turbid dome
but overall that was more a meme bit
harsh nova
wish didn't need an item to not have a target for lunge tho ๐
quiet hearth
The dragon needs his circle shortened becauase good lord
quiet hearth
that doesnt even phase me, enemy density is high enough that I barely notice it
west dock
i would like to play void caster vk. i hope they will buff this kind of vk
turbid dome
time to do a caster vk for the new mini scycle
harsh nova
echos are so trivial even high corruption it's just a defense check
turbid dome
anomally main skill time
quiet hearth
Rebuke main skill time
west dock
Rebuke main skill time
i played rebuke fg this cycle. thanks ๐
supple iris
If I find an early Palarus I wonder if it would be worth trying a VK smite build to level with or just stick with Rive/ES/VC
quiet hearth
Cast VC while channeling rebuke when
turbid dome
2 of these each anomaly cast ๐ค
harsh nova
make devouring orb great ๐
tribal basin
Like Gaspar where you can't outrun the circle without any movement speed buffs
quiet hearth
i played rebuke fg this cycle. thanks ๐
you tried
harsh nova
would be sick to have a couple giant void balls to do with.... if devouring orb wasn't garbage
west dock
echos are so trivial even high corruption it's just a defense check
not rly. super high corruption are usually damage check. almost all builds are glass cannons
harsh nova
bleed paladin is the definition of a tank
tribal basin
At one point , no DR can safe you from death
harsh nova
and none of the sentinel builds can go over top of bosses quick enough, mainly shades, without it
west dock
At one point , no DR can safe you from death
exactly
so you build dodge and you are range build . so you are falconer ๐
supple iris
Bleed just feels so off-brand for a paladin, that's my main issue with it
tribal basin
That's where the offscreen skills come into play
harsh nova
your corruption level is much more determined by your survivability than damage output. to reach a point where you can just blow things over is significantly more gear intensive than just being defensive and taking some time
west dock
your corruption level is much more determined by your survivability than damage ...
no:D
tribal basin
Feels weird that there is Necrotic and Void but not Holy .. might have lore reasons
west dock
ah ye ofc for sentinel it is true. sentinel is melee
west dock
we were talking overall man. chill
quiet hearth
I mean we talk about everything here lets be real
harsh nova
you responded to my comment about not being able to dodge bosses ๐
alpine canopy
Feels weird that there is Necrotic and Void but not Holy .. might have lore reas...
There are holy versions of both fire and lightning
turbid dome
this is my dumb thought so far for main skill anomaly, each enemy it hit by 2 time waves due to Immediacy, time bubble on where I cast it for void shred and mark of rot so they take 100% increased dmg after returning to the present
tribal basin
There are holy versions of both fire and lightning
Nah .. that's Healing stuff ๐
alpine canopy
Nah .. that's Healing stuff ๐
No it's not related to healing at all
turbid dome
now to make it not have a 9 second cooldown
harsh nova
yeah not taking this hurts
turbid dome
since the time bubble isn't going to be attached to me it hurts less
harsh nova
it's just cdr
tribal basin
No it's not related to healing at all
Do you talk about divine bolts or Judgement ?
turbid dome
but with +3 to the skill level yeah grab that 100%
harsh nova
having "holy" just be fire sounds like way less dev work
probably why
unique balance wise and everything, if sentinel only class that has holy why even bother
supple iris
Not to mention itemization budget for ANOTHER resist type
tribal basin
"Cleansing Flames !!"
turbid dome
we can use the lore excuse of the gods are holy and the gods are elemental based
idk what type of damage Etera would do
harsh nova
holy effects are most definetly tied to flame type things in like every situation i can think of so
turbid dome
purifying flames go brrr
tribal basin
idk what type of damage Etera would do
Clearly Earth
alpine canopy
Do you talk about divine bolts or Judgement ?
Pretty much all sentinel abilities except the FG ones that are fire or lightning use holy fire or holy lightning damage vfx, also electrify
quiet hearth
that is physical here
alpine canopy
Like lightning jav has golden lightning visuals, hit effects, and kill effects compared to usual lightning effects
west dock
i guess its a good time to make a loot filters for your cycle starter ๐
supple iris
That's what I'm doing. Tuning a filter and practicing on an offline newbie VK (never done an offline char before)
turbid dome
were you the guy asking for a guide for a basic vk build
quiet hearth
step one, Vit, step two, profit
quiet hearth
have fun?
supple iris
I've been asking a lot of questions about leveling and endgame Vk builds, sure
quiet hearth
That is step 0
harsh nova
rax made a filter for MG in 1.1 could grab that
crude matrixBOT
harsh nova
turbid dome
its very straight forward to play, void cleave -> erasing strike for big damage, rive does a lot of damage and heals you/restores mana. Healing hands keeps you alive and VR puts a debuff on big enemies that makes them take a ton of damage
harsh nova
https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/oYKv4P4Q here's what i did with my rive knight
crude matrixBOT
turbid dome
yeah thats a juicy build for rive, my guide expects no gear thats exalted or legendary
quiet hearth
Time and faith is so busted I cant believe it's allowed to be like this
harsh nova
yeah thats a juicy build for rive, my guide expects no gear thats exalted or leg...
yeah totally wasn't saying it's something easy to get into just showing what u could look for in something more aspirational
i really disliked the maxroll rive guide
the whole way i just felt lied to
turbid dome
the maxroll rive guide is ok, its best trait is that it looks nice
and I wont lie I do like how hand holdy it is, its good for someone who has no idea how an ARPG works
their guides got a lot of my friends into last epoch and enough of a foundation to start making their own builds
harsh nova
most the sentinel builds feel really strong through 500c if u have any build cohesiveness which is nice
had no issues with any of it through that point, which is fine for most
turbid dome
also that titan heart is unethical
turbid dome
wait would phantom grip apply to timewave
harsh nova
turbid dome
harsh nova
wait would phantom grip apply to timewave
gives all crit chance
turbid dome
welp funny anomally main skill build is gonna use that then
harsh nova
unless there's some weird interaction and it can actually crit, should work
turbid dome
its a hit and has base crit chance so I assume it can
๐ค or maybe a wand + skull for crit chance
harsh nova
spear surely
the spear that casts AE on hit looks like it could be fun
but pushing AE damage sounds not fun
turbid dome
hmmm
turbid dome
+6 base critchance from this sounds nice then combo it with a nice wand for spell damage, rather than a spear
turbid dome
you just run the mana gen on rive and that i imagine
I'm trying to main skill anomaly, base mana regen should be enough even with timelock
harsh nova
crystal skull usually the way to go if u want an offhand with cirt no doubt
turbid dome
the phantom rings are nice but I think I still want coral rings given time wave gets 2 flat per vitality
harsh nova
how much base crit are u going to have
harsh nova
yikes
yeah ur never gonna reach even 80%
with such a long cooldown reaching cap seems like it should be step 1 then push vit
whichever way that shakes out
harsh nova
low life time ๐
turbid dome
I'd want an opulent catalyst for that
harsh nova
after trying to edit a single piece of gear for 3 hours - it's totally toxic btw
turbid dome
then again with a lot of vitality that is a lot of health for low life ward
man I wish future strike counted as a hit
this goober might be the play with crystal skull offhand
20% base crit chance, get the rest of my flat spell dmg from vitality (and the fact that time wave has 100 base damage)
gusty abyss
GL getting a usable one if you go CoF though
stiff cradle
Is the offline server down? It wont let me play offline.
lunar hazel
daggers can give +4% base crit too btw
turbid dome
GL getting a usable one if you go CoF though
I played cof last cycle, ima not play it this next cycle
turbid dome
daggers can give +4% base crit too btw
yeah, but I'm doing pure spell and 6 + 9 is greater than 4 + 6
dual daggers with base crit is fun for fire bomb rogue tho
lunar hazel
I mainly said it in case some unique or implicit there is more suitable. I suppose daggers can get mana+mana regen hybrid affix and spectres can't. Someone might care about that.
turbid dome
true
lunar hazel
yeah, but I'm doing pure spell and 6 + 9 is greater than 4 + 6
btw, casting instant anomaly while warpathing with sword and hitting enemies that have been void cleaved with crit vuln is 10 + 6 base crit potentially. ๐
Could be 2h sword or Aberroth's Command + offhand sword.
turbid dome
๐ค thats less than sceptre + offhand skull (unless theres a sword that gives spell crit chance) but getting +50 spell damage while spinning would be nice, plus auto cast echos
lunar hazel
it is greater than 6+9
turbid dome
aborth's + sword is 5 (base ) + 10 (warpath with a sword)
Scorn scepter + skull is 5 (base) + 9 (scorn) + 6 (skull)
supple iris
Are exiled mages even worth doing early on? Feels lik enot...
lunar hazel
5 base, 10 warpath, 6 void cleave's debuff on enemy
turbid dome
offhand sword would give a big crit multi if I grabbed a katana tho
turbid dome
5 base, 10 warpath, 6 void cleave's debuff on enemy
ah
not sure if a conditional +1 base crit chance is worth it
lunar hazel
What's conditional?
turbid dome
void cleaves debuff
lunar hazel
you apply 3 stacks of crit vuln for 6 base crit. Lasts 4 sec, skills base cooldown is 4.
turbid dome
I'm assuming your meaning the crit vuln stacks
quiet hearth
The day they let me convert ravaging aura into fire will be a joyous one
turbid dome
you apply 3 stacks of crit vuln for 6 base crit. Lasts 4 sec, skills base cooldo...
I still need to be near them to apply the void cleave
if I was going to use timelock I'd go for that 100%
but +8 seconds to the cooldown is an owie
lunar hazel
I still need to be near them to apply the void cleave
No problem, the anomaly won't be able to clear everything before they reach you. ๐
turbid dome
No problem, the anomaly won't be able to clear everything before they reach you....
๐ค
lunar hazel
You get Armour Clad passive's 10% DR for being in skin contact. It'll be great.
(your warpath might hit things for more dmg than anomaly does, sorry)
turbid dome
given I'm trying to make time wave kill everything idk
I can reach 106% cooldown recovery (without anything really silly), thats an anomaly every 4.5 seconds doing 2 time waves, toss in crit void smite I think I might be good
lunar hazel
Guess for clear you don't want the crit vuln then. Bosses are going to need something, but something different.
You could have scorn+sword+warpath for 9+10, and 1-h sword offers added spell dmg instead of increased spell crit. Worth trying to get the increased from other slots?
turbid dome
problem with the warpath thought, that needs the instant cast anomally node which is a 50% cooldown increase
which means anomally every 6.75 seconds
lunar hazel
I think max without skill specific is like
32% belt T7
32% boots T7
30% anomaly (you didn't have this planned atm though)
12% opal ring
12% opal ring
10 or 12% gloves implicit
10 or 12% helmet implicit
Plus in theory one can double belt's cdr for 1 second on potion use with erased belt but is that worth the trouble...
hunting max rolls is futile without merchant guild though
turbid dome
I have the 30% inside the time bubble specced for with a +3 to anomaly hat
vessel of strife might be a nice grab for this build
combo with grand rythm of the tide + health regen affix on my amulet not much investment for a decent amount of ward
I could use a peak of the mountain with that and not die cause of no leech
lunar hazel
the warpath offers biggest suitable global damage boosts I can find in skills. Vengeance and Reversal aren't suitable for your clear. Sigils are second best. Having a devouring orb active could give 20% more if stacking vit.
turbid dome
the warpath offers biggest suitable global damage boosts I can find in skills. V...
I agree with warpath, I don't like cutting my cast rate in half with it tho
also given direct casting void smite is pretty good with the double chance + echo chance
lunar hazel
smite sounds suspiciously normal
turbid dome
i mean what else is gonna be my auto attack with a spell casting vk
max duration hollow orb for the buffs + make it a turret
lunar hazel
I think dot spell builds are stronger right now. But for crit spell it's that or devouring orb. Unless you want to be the next person to be disappointed with proc spells: Doom Pulse, Voidwinter Bolt or Decimate.
Abyssal Echoes with Potent Corruption is maybe slightly stronger than anomaly crit.
turbid dome
the entire point of this is to use anomaly for something that isn't a self buff time bubble
lunar hazel
You can put the Time Wave points into Time Lock and it'll be viable support skill for some builds with mainly that and Mark of Rot. Time Lock is great in endless arena.
Or make a build that wants Quicksand and/or Cycle of Decay.
turbid dome
I get that
spark monolith
I'm gonna push with a forged weapon build I've cooked. Does anyone know how far other forged weapon builds have pushed?
west dock
do you want to share your letools?
spark monolith
crude matrixBOT
spark monolith
This is what I've come up with. Reflect forged weapon/shield with buffs from VC
Can block, dodge, high armor, high dot mitigation applied to armor, high regen/ward
turbid dome
that honestly looks solid
you should try to get this capped tho
or at least near cap
spark monolith
I figured, with block/dodge/and 9.5k armor I don't need to cap that
turbid dome
uncapped block and a good amount of dodge and not capped crit bonus dmg reduction means that there will just be a coinflip where the hit bypasses the layers and hits you for a ton of damage, especially if you want to be pushing corruption
spark monolith
I can hit 100% block potentially, and 40% dodge
get 15 from ring of shields and 20% from warpath
spark monolith
if I block i cast it from passive 50% of time
turbid dome
that does help a lot, but you may want to splash in some 2 by 2 block effectiveness idols
rancid lantern
Void Beams dots stack, correct?
spark monolith
- i have cooldown reduction
not needed
i get block effectiveness from ring of shields
passive gives 100 block effectiveness per shield
i cast 8 and they last
so really have 16+
spark monolith
yah
turbid dome
that always throws me for a loop
spark monolith
like I cant show my regen/ inc armor from the helm
turbid dome
or the block chance from warpath
spark monolith
true
turbid dome
or the ring of shields being active
if the guy who makes LE tools is looking, thank you for the website tho its amazing
rancid lantern
Anyone?
waxen nymph
Void Beams dots stack, correct?
Yes
waxen nymph
Not personally but I saw a couple videos about it
rancid lantern
nah, not buggy
turbid dome
neato
turbid dome
not the rav aura
waxen nymph
i thought you weren't sure
Was I? I feel pretty confident in my answer rn
rancid lantern
Oh okay
My bad ๐
All right so what im cooking is
Erasing Strike, 3 echoes, no cooldown
massive mana pool
slam as many erasings as possible before reversal
turbid dome
use world splitter + void well with that and you don't need reversal
waxen nymph
World Splitter on a Spell DoT?
turbid dome
oh wait I'm dumb
rancid lantern
also Time loop doesnt add mana cost anyways
turbid dome
then again doesn't it get flat dmg from vitality
rancid lantern
it does.
turbid dome
and you can just infinite slam for an increasing number of void beams
rancid lantern
assuming you can sustain the mana, yeah
turbid dome
the whole point to using world splitter is to have 100% crit chance and use void well to sustain mana forever
theres probs some math to do to see how many beams you would need to beat your idea
turbid dome
problem is you'd need enough max mana where 30% of your mana pool is 3 swings of erasing strike to keep procing void well
idk how much mana your planning for it rn
waxen nymph
so not the worst idea
A crystal Staff will give you Flat + Mana + Regen
compact trout
I don't think you can sustain 3 echo non cd erasing strike, no?
rancid lantern
also true
turbid dome
I don't think you can sustain 3 echo non cd erasing strike, no?
that too
rancid lantern
I don't think you can sustain 3 echo non cd erasing strike, no?
Youd have to crunch the mana but essentially
youd need to use 30% of your mana pool
a bit over
so you go from 3 to 2 to 3 void essences
so it procs repeatedly
Well
it has a 3 sec cooldown
so honestly a good idea to sustain the mana on a 3 second cooldown Erasing
Not cooldownless but hey
lemme cook
compact trout
Cook, brother, game ain't working anyway
turbid dome
you can sustain no cooldown bonk with worldsplitter and void well, just not with 3 guaranteed echos
rancid lantern
you can sustain no cooldown bonk with worldsplitter and void well, just not with...
well as long as you use up 30% of your mana before next void well proc
you can squeeze as many as youd like
waxen nymph
How do you get void essence?
rancid lantern
Essence of the End, Erasing Strike
turbid dome
well as long as you use up 30% of your mana before next void well proc
? void well procs when you go negative mana with a 3 second cooldown, not just every 3 seconds
rancid lantern
? void well procs when you go negative mana with a 3 second cooldown, not just e...
Yeah so if you go negative again before 3 seconds elapses, youre screwed, arent you
waxen nymph
So you need crit chance, at least a little bit
rancid lantern
So you need crit chance, at least a little bit
i mean erasing gives 9% on its own, void cleave guarantees one crit
rancid lantern
hence world splitter
Void Bringer pumps up mana cost by 70% too so thats convenient
turbid dome
Yeah so if you go negative *again* before 3 seconds elapses, youre screwed, aren...
if your negative when void well comes off cooldown, void well still activates
rancid lantern
if your negative when void well comes off cooldown, void well still activates
Oh that works too then
turbid dome
Its honestly not a clunky as it sounds video isn't me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqxScOfQsIY
turbid dome
I expect world splitter to get some kind of a change at the next balance patch
turns out making a skill thats suppose to have a cooldown or a big mana cost have neither of those is really strong
rancid lantern
Cant have shiz in Detroit
turbid dome
0.5 flat crit per 1 mana cost tho is crazy
frees up so many affix slots for other stuff
rancid lantern
If I do void cleave tho
with guaranteed erasing crit
do i still even need that crit?
turbid dome
void cleave gaurantees the next erasing strike is a crit
given this build wants to stand there and spam erasing strike, no that doesn't work
rancid lantern
echoes roll crit separately or?
turbid dome
yeah
rancid lantern
hm
turbid dome
the guaranteed crit doesn't affect echos
turbid dome
then go for beams my dude
turbid dome
I'm planning a stupid wizard void knight using anomaly for damage anything is possible
rancid lantern
now you got me intrigued
turbid dome
*crit anomaly
rancid lantern
why haven't we talked before
turbid dome
crude matrixBOT
turbid dome
and mark of rot given they don't actually get yeeted into the future
turbid dome
increased damage taken is a more multiplier
rancid lantern
ah right youre not running reversal
turbid dome
if all my damage (increased and more) comes out to 100 dmg, 100% increased dmg taken makes it 200 dmg
yeah I wanted the damage from sigils + orb
rancid lantern
this looks very neat.
turbid dome
the scorn sceptre does make this basically a merchant guild only build tho
rancid lantern
yeah i was going to say
this looks great to try for 1.2
ill shelve it for sure
i think i want to abuse the unique drop rates for the event
turbid dome
If I"m gonna abuse the unique drop rates ima change this to a low life ward build and do shenanigans
rancid lantern
if you can fit it in with the 90 vit, go for it
rancid lantern
im thinking how to transition into this
and how the build would operate without world splitter/capped crit
turbid dome
Probs gonna be a rive/cleave/erasing start with a movement skill and vr for dmg
rancid lantern
though i struggle to imagine beams doing better than just straight up melee... Crushing Blows from Forge Guard is nasty
turbid dome
Solid and works with crappy gear
rancid lantern
More melee void damage from VK is another matter..
i think i may be forcing the beams too hard lol
turbid dome
I do wish that was more void dmg and not more melee void dmg
crude matrixBOT
rancid lantern
so as long as you spend like... 290 mana in this case
actually less
you could get a lot of beams
eh
looks like a decent experiment for a short event :p
just need hella more vit here
harsh nova
progress has been made ๐ฟ i can make my own items now!
๐
if ur ever gonna try get some items and work it backwards cuz holy i thought going forward would be easy, but it is not
rancid lantern
Speed
@turbid dome @waxen nymph https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/A2kmOknQ Looks like something?
crude matrixBOT
turbid dome
assuming the flat 0.5 per mana cost caps out your crit chance, yeah
slender raptor
Is VK Warpath still a half decent starter build ? I do really like spin2win playstyle. How far can that build be pushed to ? 300 corruption ? I haven't played LE in quite a while.
turbid dome
VK warpath gets echos so its solid
keen marsh
surviving is tough cause you're facechecking most damage thrown at you
rancid lantern
assuming the flat 0.5 per mana cost caps out your crit chance, yeah
with only 80% more, i think im more keen to try out your build tho lol
alpine canopy
honestly with the update coming, you should be able to avoid incoming damage decently better
turbid dome
with only 80% more, i think im more keen to try out your build tho lol
dang
rancid lantern
i just dont see enough multipliers in this
i mean you have 24 flat and 300% sec but youd need a ton of beams o overtake crit and melee
rancid lantern
yeah those arent together
wish you could scale it cumulatively via respective trees
turbid dome
ye
rancid lantern
not really synergetic to use more than just eraisng
turbid dome
void beams are dot dmg, you could use abyssal echos so when you hit with erasing strike they take all that damage too
I guess?
rancid lantern
yeah but then youre tied by cd
of echoes
as for your build
have you considered perhaps a timerot/future strike version of this?
turbid dome
grab time compression for no abyssal echos cooldown
turbid dome
have you considered perhaps a timerot/future strike version of this?
I wanted to try future strike but its ass
rancid lantern
grab time compression for no abyssal echos cooldown
Oh yeah thatd work. but thatd no longer be a beam build :p
what ive been considering
turbid dome
Oh yeah thatd work. but thatd no longer be a beam build :p
beams are dots -> abyssals echo is a dot -> hitting with erasing strike makes abyssal echo do its damage faster
also as a side note: time rot as a damage source is kinda meh given it caps at 12
rancid lantern
thing is
hmm no
not possible
I was wondering if you could make ignite stacks indefinite
compact trout
I wanted to try future strike but its ass
I think they will add unique that will make it work like they did with Aberroth's Command for Ravaging Aura, but i kinda hate how they do that
rancid lantern
but its 2.5 sec
so thats not possible to sustain evne with the lowest of cd
on anomaly
turbid dome
I think they will add unique that will make it work like they did with Aberroth'...
you have to spend 10 points on the passive tree for 100% future strike chance on hit... OR use anomaly to get future strike
it has so little support that unique would need to do a LOT of carrying for it
electrify has so much more support than future strike
and electrify barely has any
rancid lantern
honestly a lot of subskills need more multis
They kinda remembered those with runemaster
turbid dome
future strike is mid despite the fact that anomaly can give it like 400% pen
copper walrus
Any tips to keep from getting bored while pushing further into corruption. I find myself changing my build drastically every time I start getting burnt out. What do y'all do to cope?
rancid lantern
goals
turbid dome
I listen to podcasts and twitch streams while grinding
an aliment having this and being horrible is telling
copper walrus
Is there an end? What's the goal there?
turbid dome
Is there an end? What's the goal there?
my end goal for every build is finishing it
reach the point where any upgrade is minor and takes like 50+ hours to get
then I make a new character
copper walrus
I mean, when does corruption top off?
rancid lantern
It doesnt
turbid dome
its infinite scaling
copper walrus
SoB that must take some time
turbid dome
according to a reddit post Bina got their ZHP ballista build to around 3k corruption
turbid dome
ZHP and using silver shroud yeah
midnight pine
is HH with divine bolt any good? when does it fall off?
turbid dome
are you direct casting HH?
midnight pine
uh yeah thats how u get divine bolts
turbid dome
this was the node I was thinking of
copper walrus
No they shoot out in a spread
midnight pine
toi my knowlewdge no, unless that proc something that does
rancid lantern
25 fire, 100% eff, no flat scaling with attunement or anything, no more multis
That's a no for me chief
turbid dome
I didn't even realize healing hands had a direct cast divine bolt node
midnight pine
ok so what sentinel builds/skills should i be looking at?
turbid dome
Rive
rancid lantern
theres a few
turbid dome
Judgement is fun too
copper walrus
HH with Rive is nice
turbid dome
Is the orbital laser cannon node for healing hands a meme
midnight pine
what does HH add to rive?
rancid lantern
it was bugged when it ested it
you can procc hh via melee
with one of the nodes
its pretty neat
turbid dome
And if you make it do fire damage that happens too
copper walrus
Just less upfront healing
turbid dome
Thatโs a HH node
copper walrus
HH tree
turbid dome
Up from the start
copper walrus
Just before the movement node
rancid lantern
id try looking into a bleed or smite hammerdin, thats probably what id recommend for beginners
midnight pine
i see it now
rancid lantern
rive is cool and all and probably the best skill for levelling but it kinda tapers off later
turbid dome
Also for rice put 5 points into time and faith in the base sentinel tree
turbid dome
rive is cool and all and probably the best skill for levelling but it kinda tape...
As long as foe reaver exists I must disagree
copper walrus
I always put time and faith into my rice
rancid lantern
foe cleaver you mean
rancid lantern
its damage isnt the issue, its just the playstyle eventually feels a bit too point blank
turbid dome
Melee moment
rancid lantern
aye melee moment
back to beams tho
i think that
void cleaver might be bait
durr
world splitter *
I would sooner see Celestial Doom
I think that might be a more attractive angle for spells
i considered running
lightning smite
Fire Abyssal echoes
and some void spell
and stack mana to scale Celestial Doom
would need to figure out how to get spell crit tho
midnight pine
i mean realistically what is last epochs end game? single target large boss grinding right..
rancid lantern
at the moment
midnight pine
so what builds are better for that
rancid lantern
abberoth which is like
600 corruption give or take?
id say thats a solid end-game goal
midnight pine
maybe vengence is the move. single target which gives a ton of defense to
rancid lantern
anything above that is kind of a steep treadmill
turbid dome
imo vegence and multi strike are so completely mid
hell like half of vengence is dedicated to a sub skill I dont think I've seen anyone use in a while
alpine canopy
25 fire, 100% eff, no flat scaling with attunement or anything, no more multis
It scales with HH's tree, so it can get more multis and flat per heal effect. I think it actually does well for clearing currently, just needs high investment and single target probably junk.
alpine canopy
i mean realistically what is last epochs end game? single target large boss grin...
I think it's more realistically a mix of high speed clear and big bosses. Gotta run echoes to run bosses, and bosses mainly are only farmed for their specific drops, so if you don't need any you don't need to grind them
midnight pine
so what AOE skill requires the least evenestment to clear an echo
harsh nova
Javelin ๐
midnight pine
im sure there is enough to pull off an aoe skill AND vengence
alpine canopy
I've been thinking about trying flame burst with vengeance, no idea if it'll be decent. I've seen vengeance used as a defensive/mana support on ES builds too, iirc.
Vengeance just deals very little damage, so I can't think of any builds that actually use it for anything other than its buffs
harsh nova
would have to be some dots then surely ๐ฝ
turbid dome
how many iron blades can you even make on hit
harsh nova
can you make forge weapons apply ignite ๐
turbid dome
iron blades having a 20% chance to proc on hit (thats with 4 points) is so owie
midnight pine
they are minions so if it has a minion tag i assume yes
harsh nova
alright now figured out how to add LP in offline ๐ let the building begin
turbid dome
why not just add the extra affix to it directly
harsh nova
more difficult
turbid dome
darn
harsh nova
I cant figure out how to add higher than t1 either
turbid dome
๐ค is there not just a tier variable
harsh nova
Nope
harsh nova
Basically it has affix and then range roll for affix, and then its just the next affix
Theres nothing to distinguish the tier at all
Basically for offline editing you find a piece you want with a t7 affix on it already and then you can change the base type to the one you want and give it 100 forge potential, then you can just add quantity to give u more
turbid dome

before i go doing something stupid.. if i have 200% bleed and attack 3 times with multistrike.. i would apply 6 stacks of bleed right?

feral horizon
Hey guys, is javelin still kinda the "go to" leveling for paladins or could i simply start throwing hammers (going for bleed hammers end game)as soon as i can without being too far behind javelin in terms of getting myself to 70ish?
how's the speed/survivability etc.?
chilly peak
You can also level great with hammers! Would stick to Nova till you have a first bleeding setup, Nova is quite nice early on.
You can perfectly level that way without any respec if you like
turbid dome
Warpath is fun for leveling too
Rive is rive, if you like riveโs play style itโs also great
chilly peak
Warpath is fun for leveling too
Yes, but I feel you need Palarus to keep up in leveling with hammers or jav, or?
turbid dome
Yes, but I feel you need Palarus to keep up in leveling with hammers or jav, or?
I mean the last warpath leveling I did was for a wizard vk and I just spun to end game with a staff and auto cast smite while warpathing
chilly peak
Sounds fun
turbid dome
Kinda brainless for leveling, I just turned on a nature documentary and went spinning
lunar hazel
Rive into movement and melee skills of your choice works. If you're going for melee builds, the transition can be natural.
But Holy Trail can reach empowered monos without doing the round of gearing during regular monos that I need as melee. And I needed it for monolith lagon or the lvl 90 monos before harbinger fight was added to empowered unlock. Holy Trail's power spike is still going at that point.
Healing Hands leveling is a thing now too.
steel turtle
Hi all. I would like to main shield bash this cycle. Wonder if it is a good starter? Or should I do other build first and collect some relevant equips?
winged cedar
Whats the best erasing strike build around?
lunar hazel
define best, because surely otherwise it's something using erasing strike to move devouring orbs around. Hipster value!
some build with chronostasis offhand can probably do highest damage in one hit

Rive+erasing builds are also popular though and can use other weapons.

waxen nymph
Hi all. I would like to main shield bash this cycle. Wonder if it is a good star...
Dmg is kinda low before you get a good lp Shield/Axe (the new unique for it forgot its name)
Otherwise you are super tanky
So if you don't want a slow/tanky starter that's all good
turbid dome
Doesnโt shield bash have big mana problems early on
waxen nymph
Imo they are fixable quite fast but you sacrifice some dmg (you can move a few point around)
But sure not the most mana friendly
I have noticed people have a hard time with mana because they take the shield that increase mana cost and not all the pts for reduced mana cost
turbid dome
Ah
steel turtle
Noted thanks! I guess I will just do my minion still then do shield bash later
scenic flint
How's Javelin as starter? first time sentinel
harsh nova
Mana hungry asf. Until you get into decent late game would try and lean on no cost skills
scenic flint
Okay. Any recommendations?
turbid dome
if you want to start javelin you can always use rive + time and faith to regen your mana between fights
harsh nova
Its best use is just to attach it to lunge and help ur clears that way imo
scenic flint
Sure thanks, ill try some variations
waxen nymph
Its a decent starter with Holy Trail
I would not recommend Hit Base Javelin at any stage
JAveling + Smite Bleed or Ignite or Electrify is good but you need the Idols first
turbid dome
is the splitter spear for jav still bugged? or was it ever bugged I think I remeber someone talking about that
waxen nymph
Not sure
alpine canopy
I heard the splitting mechanic in general was a little wonky, possibly since online mode got added, but since the only good ways to build jav are barrage/banner or holy trail I haven't actually tried splitting jav in a very long time lol
turbid dome
same
also, give sentinel more spear support plz
would a node to use a spear and a shield be that strong
with a tack on that makes you only get like 80% of the stats from the spear and shield
or whatever % would make it balanced
arctic tartan

How good is the erasing strike build before getting the weapon? Like, can it farm the harbinger to get the weapon?

hopefully without nerfing the +5% crit in FG ๐

one handed spears + more spear support for sentinel would be awesome
like make rive be forward stabs with a spear and not a circle

primalist and rogue would probably really benefit from 1h spears, too
turbid dome

This one
harsh nova
that build works fine - can even use warpath isntead of rive if u wanna
since warpath channel cost can self sustain in just the tree nodes
pseudo frigate
I love warpath tbh I might just become a spin2win main
turbid dome
warpath is great and fun
pseudo frigate
Prolly gonna feel even better this patch
harsh nova
the problem i ran into with rive a lot of times was just having to commit standing still time to do actions - which is the biggest advantage of both ES and warpath over rive is that they just keep moving a lot more fluidly
especially early on rive cuz ur mostly just critting on hit 3
pseudo frigate
I often struggle with the item filter tbh not sure what I'm doing wrong
harsh nova
filter by 1-2 stats per slot imo
like on ur helm it's going to be defined by the t7 stat you want
so just filter helms that only have that stat ignore the rest
pseudo frigate
Like the way I struggle is I get to purp gear then I start to really fall off
harsh nova
gotta push prophecies if ur CoF
pseudo frigate
Got farthest with vk at 85ish though
harsh nova
you'll never find drops naturally
harsh nova
80-90 is a grind zone where upgrades start to become far apart
3-5 hours per upgrade usually
and then post 90 ur looking at 5-10 hours
pseudo frigate
I just needed gear at my level
harsh nova
85 is also an awkward zone where not all elite bases are available to you
harsh nova
champs regalia ect, the high level base type items
i think champs regalia is a lvl 86 base type item iirc
so until you hit 90ish you literally won't see all the items in the pool u need
pseudo frigate
Is that a legendary/unique?
turbid dome
regular base type
harsh nova
it's a common base type
turbid dome
same with leonine helmet
harsh nova
^
pseudo frigate
Oh so I have a whole gear type I can't see?
turbid dome
both should be the go to chest armor + helmet for any sentinel
harsh nova
yep
pseudo frigate
That makes sense
turbid dome
they might drop before your a high enough level to use them, but its rare
pseudo frigate
Yeah sounds like I need to grind out my builds better
harsh nova
just pushing exp is best you can do until 90 and then worry about where big upgrades can come from imo
turbid dome
they basically make you beefy
pseudo frigate
Need to use those prophecies
pseudo frigate
So just farm prophecies once I get to monoliths?
pseudo frigate
Might be easier this time around
harsh nova
resistance and a bit of hp with a solid weapon should cover you all the way through like 200c
pseudo frigate
they basically make you beefy
I've been using the void ones that give me void damage or echoes

I'm leaning to the first option because while whirlwinding, it can give me base crit and fire pen. Block if I want to use a shield.

Don't put points into Healing Ineffectiveness.

That's not very much heal effect, I don't think it has ever had a bug like that or I'm sure I would have experienced it

alpine canopy
there are ways to spec your judgment that remove its ability to heal, for a one shot build they likely did that
lunar hazel
How good is the erasing strike build before getting the weapon? Like, can it far...
I used to play that build in 1.0 before the weapon existed. The weapon makes it much easier to get the right combination of stats in endgame. (Building it with different weapon might have higher damage ceiling.)
Start with rive or vengeance. Then work the Void Cleave + Erasing Strike combo in. Level with any 2h axe or sword. I suggest keeping Vengeance for mana gain and buff until much later. (Specialize it for now. But later even without specializing it can be used for mana and minor survivability benefits until you can sustain mana without.)
Match the cooldowns of traversal Void Cleave and ES exactly for the combo. Then get some more cdr.
You might want to use the ES forced crit node in Void Cleave temporarily. Anyway, don't take ES's forced echo or 0 cooldown nodes until you have enough max mana to sustain mana. (Try it out and see how much you need to fall back to Vengeance mana gain.) 0LP World Splitter should make that happen earlier now that the item exists.
Note that the video description included a planner for lower quality gear, like you might build at the start of empowered = low corruption.

the rays in the center keep ramping and you end up having no space
solid forge
I'll try to see if I can figure out an idea making it more dps
harsh nova
aberoth is basically the only downfall of the build - and there's things you could pivot to complete that content in the spec
but for me, that's a big downside because that also means the ceiling for corruption is fairly low
through like 3-400c you just clap everything tho and heal while doing it works out nice

dual wield takes the average attack speed from your two weapons and I believe the average attack range
lunar hazel
ah ok, thanks
turbid dome
so like dualing with a 0.8 attack speed weapon and a 1.0 attack speed weapon gives you a 0.9 attack speed

dual wield is basically just using a twohander for most things
picture it as duct taping your two weapons together

the boss isn't going to stay in the bubble and then I can stand in it for a cdr boost
I'll probably drop that for something else, but the idea of it being useful is there

then again time bubble is the source of void shred so getting CDR from it is probably greedy

Direct cast smite vs triggered smite is the first question

steep obsidian
I saw it in the tree, but it doesnt look like it syngerizes great
Is void smite a thing?
harsh nova
technically
turbid dome
Look at the first middle node for void knight
It converts it to void
Smites direct cast double chance node also stacks with void knight echos
For two separate double chances
steep obsidian
oh what, really?
turbid dome
Yeah
steep obsidian
It sounds janky, so now its at the top of my list
harsh nova
and then this node
turbid dome
You might want to dual wield so you can have a palarus for the triple smite thing
lunar hazel
the early node converts to void. Middle node gives added dmg scaling from vitality. But removes increased dmg from attunement (good trade) and I think one of the nodes also removes the dmg scaling from healing eff.
turbid dome
The first node stops you from healing directly from smite
But yeah stacking to like 90 vitality is fun for caster void knight
lunar hazel
Sorry I mean the vitality won't give the healing eff that attunement did. Yeah.
steep obsidian
Alright going for it, void knight smiter

steep obsidian
This is the way

is erasing strike world splitter build any good? i wanna try out sentinel build and debating between this and bleed hammer
turbid dome
es + world splitter lets you spam a giant slam of damage forever
its very fun but its not really a starter since you gotta kill a harby to get a world splitter
cosmic copper
you have a good starter vk build till then then?
turbid dome
theres the classic erasing strike + void cleave + rive
or do a warpath build, a straight rive build

Where are the Passives Thresholds in Forge Guard ?
The text and the passives are completely different
turbid dome
weapons master, fresh from the forge, champion of the forge, thorn mail, unflinching, steel ageis, iron attunement, hammer and anvil, Iron reflexes, Javiliner, avatar of war, folded steel,
those are all the threshold passives
waxen nymph
Yeah they dont appear as such now
Apparently Passives Trees got somehow reverted to their 1.0 ish state

Someone seems to be complaining they cant complete the same content they use to 2 days ago
Might be because of the passive tree
turbid dome

what is the best warpath build?
waxen nymph
what is the best warpath build?
Probably smth like Void Vk
steep obsidian
@molten cloak - If you head over to Last Epoch Tools and go to "Build" then filter to Warpath as a skill used you can find a bunch
waxen nymph
Maybe not actually
turbid dome
Hmmm, these are visual things I hear?
plz not my 10% of missing health heal
alpine canopy
but 25 mana on use ๐
turbid dome
what
waxen nymph
New shrines are fun
turbid dome
smite costs a lot of hp not mana
waxen nymph
I just realised smth
I could use a Macro to get Smite casted exactly every 0.5 Sec for Fissure
Bypassing any the need to use any weird setup
turbid dome
are macros not against the rules for LE
waxen nymph
Kinda grey area, imo this one should be fine
Maybe I should not mention it here though
turbid dome
in the news, last epoch moderator endorses macro, millions riot

Facing first nemesis twice with Rive before getting levels in Time and Faith was rather iffy. Why are they stronger than exiled mages anyway? They're just some dead losers while the mages are criminals locked away for eons with nothing to do but contemplate their magic.
turbid dome
Facing first nemesis twice with Rive before getting levels in Time and Faith was...
nemesis = rage at being skill issued by a harby
exile mage = nerd who isn't guaranteed to be good at combat
just a dude who was doing illegal studying

"How dare they research waifu summoning magic!?! Lock them away!"

"How dare they research waifu summoning magic!?! Lock them away!"
I mean I'd be worried and scared if necromancy was illegal and some wizard made a belt that summoned a zombie that explodes itself when he drinks a potion while wearing it
or gloves that drained your life force to create a shield around you
or whatever drugs the maker of the mad alchemist ladle was on
bleak agate
shield bash stil viable?
turbid dome
theres been no balance changes so yeah

did someone reported fg passive tree is fcked up?
uncut hedge
i came to ask if fg tree got changed cause LE tools/maxroll has a different tree and I see it's not intended
turbid dome

I was told its just a visual bug, trust what LE-Tools has
west dock

uncut hedge
I was told its just a visual bug, trust what LE-Tools has
I see... thanks for the info. I'll give it a test when I can afford 5 points in FG.
on the flipside maybe they implemented the nerfs for the next cycle by accident
west dock

turbid dome
no its pre 1.1 trees
Oh god are the trees actually swapped back
west dock
i cant check it yet i just started. but EHg is saying that it is visual
