🔱┃sentinel

[steady yew]

It required you to be a certain level and have a certain weapon

it's actually stated you need to be lvl 85 on the maxroll guide, the class tree on some node but you need to be around this level to get the void well passive

[marsh belfry]

Better use the lvling build guide and work towards obtaining a world splitter once u close to lv85

[marsh belfry]

Is there any way to make Erasing strike work with two red rings?

[dense tendon]

you would have to use the doom axe

[marsh belfry]

so somthing without void well then but bigger dmg hits

[young lynx]

it really doesnt

a single hit from erasing strike kills most things dead, you dont need huge manapool for that

[turbid dome]

tbh that warning is more just to help stop people from trying to use timeloop during the campaign

instead of doing an ES leveling build

[steady yew]

Well without void well you get 0 mana sustain

[steady yew]

without void well you do 2/3 slam and your out of mana

gl doing echo and bossing without it on low level gear/level

[turbid dome]

if you do rive + es + vc leveling build you have mana sustain

[steady yew]

can't say about it never heard of the build so maybe but since he was specifically asking for ES build without void well i didn't really looked that far ^^

[turbid dome]

its the classic heres a basic vk build

• Void cleave for movement/shred/time rot stacks and making your next ES a crit
• ES because its ES and everything dies
• Rive because good damage with an axe + vitality, while also triggering time and faith (no need to invest in any other mana) (also the filler skill when the other 2 are on cooldown)

[flat valve]

worth using razorfall boots only for throwing skills and haste effect?

[runic finch]

how does erasing strike hit 100% crit chance?

[slow root]

Why am i not dying using judgement paladin ? 😭

[turbid dome]

worldsplitter and other flat crit boosting really helps make crit easy to cap

void cleave also has a node that gaurantees your next erasing strike to be a crit (terms and conditions apply)

[runic finch]

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/planner/0g5ta0n3#2 i dont see how this build is hitting 100% crit.

base crit : 5%
5% mortal cleave
+15% from world splitter
total : 25%

+60% from symbols of hope
+120% from anomaly
+76% from gear
total : 256%

final crit : 89%

[turbid dome]

that version of ES doesn't need 100% crit chance and instead uses dorb to supplement void essences

tho imo I still personally do the 100% crit with a void essence on es crit hit

[runic finch]

whats the 100% crit build do differently?

[turbid dome]

instead of needing to stay moving to get void essences from dorb, you get a void essence whenever you hit something with erasing strike

so you just stand still and spam erasing strike till everything dies

its what worldsplitter ES vk did before this season

[dense tendon]

you missed +6% from prophet's onslaught

[turbid dome]

oh whoops

I shoulda noticed that

[runic finch]

ah good point

so what skill do you use instead of devouring orb?

[turbid dome]

I'd still probably use dorb cause 20% more global void damage

I was messing around with the new volatile reversal until I stopped for this season

plus auto cast turret dorb is nice for mapping

its just also nice not having to constantly run back and forth during a boss fight to sustain mana (gotta keep the dorbs going) and instead i can just slap the boss till it dies

[runic finch]

hmm, but erasing strike has that node that generates void essence on crit anyway? unless you are saying its not enough

[turbid dome]

yeah I'm saying put 3 points into the void essence on crit node in ES (so its 100% chance)

instead of the single point in the plan you linked

[runic finch]

hmm, i see

but if you arent triggering devouring orb, then its kind of a waste in the boss fight

[turbid dome]

move a lil instead of constantly so your smacking more than when your using dorb for void essences

you only need one up to give the 20% more global void damage

[wooden mountain]

with WASD controls it's trivial to get good Dorb uptime without losing dps

[turbid dome]

see but I like standing still during a boss fight so I can aura farm

[wooden mountain]

fair

[turbid dome]

plus when I completely wiff my uber void boi's angry void soup puddle locations being able to stand still is nice

[ionic inlet]

If you really need the points you could go for it

[flat valve]

not super necessary I just can't find any boots that really fit my build so it's either those or some big resistance boots

[ionic inlet]

What type of build?

[flat valve]

not following any build, playing a javelin rain on riposte with phalanx spear + shield throw, and self cast for bosses

[ionic inlet]

Hmm maybe you could wear advent of the erased for the DoT mitigation?
foot of the mountain is always good, tradeoff is the slow movement speed but you would get dex and str 😅

[flat valve]

yeah potentially erased but kind of eyeballing the haste effect cause I really want more ms 😂 so mountain is out of the question

[ionic inlet]

Are you not FG and can't gain MS from haste?

Only around 50 MS feels really slow yeah

[flat valve]

wait is that a thing? am I just being dumb

[ionic inlet]

This passive

[flat valve]

oof

wonder if that would turn into increased block some how or if increased effect of haste is complete dog then

welp thank u for pointing that one out, i had completely missed it

[ionic inlet]

You get 10% block chance from having haste instead of MS

Which could be good or bad depending on your build, like shield throw that could be 15% more multiplier 😅

[flat valve]

was refering to the increased haste effect on razorfall but ig that stat does nothing for me then

and in that case resist or advents are probably the way to go

[ionic inlet]

Ah yeah haste effect won't do anything 🥲

[bronze delta]

hey alk! i need some advise for a VK build, can anyone assist? i am trying to decide point distribution between obliteration and Implements of Destruction

[runic finch]

does erasing strike not have access to a skill that removes ailments?

[ionic inlet]

Like cleanse? They all use potion affix

[runic finch]

yea, dont they have a skill that cleanses?

[ionic inlet]

From what I've seen no, there's smite but I don't think you want to use that

[runic finch]

strange, healing hands seem like the perfect skill to have a cleanse node

[ionic inlet]

Probably too easy ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[turbid dome]

Healing hands having a cleanse would make it way to easy for every sentinel to get

Thing is already stupidly strong at keeping you alive

[marsh belfry]

Yay Finally After countless tries ... big dps increase on uber caus I can cleanse debuffs now lol

Doenst seem much of a flex but god am I happy

[hollow veldt]

GG come carry me on uber now

[marsh belfry]

Sry to late closed the game xD u can add me if u want it tomorow or somthing ..

[hasty cypress]

anyone here can help watch me do an uber attempt and tell me what i can do better?

[turbid dome]

a solid combo imo

[wintry quest]

What is the best way to farm World Splitter?

[fluid epoch]

Anyone know of a spreadsheet/calculator going around to help with electrify scaling?

[fluid epoch]

Lay down a bunch of these https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/echo/collapsing_horizon

[wintry quest]

How do you get these?

[umbral granite]

this would be nicer to have if i actually had an lp3 relic

[fluid epoch]

Have you killed any harbingers and done some tombs and cemeteries? It's a woven echo so you may have some in your stash.

[wintry quest]

Not yet, I just unlocked empowered timelines, time to kill harbingers, I guess lol

But thanks for the help!

[fluid epoch]

Oh ok. Yeah once you've done your empowered timelines you should get some. TBH i forget if that particular woven echo drops from tombs/cemeteries or only harbingers. The timeline you wana farm for World Splitter is Black Sun.

[wintry quest]

Yup, will do, thank you very much

[wicked turret]

is there like cycle of prophecies?

cant seem to find ornate idols

[runic finch]

does sentinel have any traversal skills similar to the rogue's shift? healing hands does not seem to cover a large distance

and it feels quite slow compared to shift

[steep trail]

Cleave

You need boots for it

@runic finch

[runic finch]

strange, i tried using void cleave and it felt like a short ranged attack, even with the traversal node

[frigid zenith]

i find it kinda similar to HH range wise

if you want the really long range one then go with lunge, but it comes with its own set of problem (need target to cast)

[haughty canopy]

Hmm go with shield and palarus or cleaver and palarus for a divine bolt/ms pally?

May take either hh trans or smite trans

[turbid dome]

You take the node gravity’s edge

[runic finch]

i did, still feels short ranged

unless the range is shorter if the target is closer...

oh i see what you mean

but the casting animation is pretty long while shift is near instant :(

[turbid dome]

I mean like any travel skill it goes to where you click it

[steady yew]

Well healing hand can go across huge gap as long as you have a 2nd monitor and aim you pointer on it

[alpine canopy]

Sentinel doesn't have anything exactly like shift, no. It does have some good options though. VR is pretty solid as a traversal, and specced as a non-traversal with no combo it actually is kinda similar to shift while also letting you have a separate traversal.

[turbid dome]

[steady yew]

If you have a 2nd monitor fidget with healing hand and you will go about 2/3 as far if you aim on your left/right top/bot corner of your other monitor

And it doesn’t work on other area of your screen this allow you to cross between huge wall or even floating bridge without the need to cross them

[turbid dome]

ye

movement skills are always a lil funny in arpgs

like poe1's leapslam

[steady yew]

Pretty sure if you got 21/9 or resolution that stretch in length your screen you could go oob

[turbid dome]

[dense tendon]

put them in the turtle then 😡

[turbid dome]

turtle them, no balls

[marsh belfry]

well u need the mana on veng thing so thats your priority xD

id keep one and dump the rest into turtle

[plush tide]

i tp'ed off the map once, it sucked.

[steady yew]

uber aberoth

[marsh belfry]

Other then uber u can farm generic rune prophcies they are a bit rare so u gotta reroll a bit for em

[steady yew]

there's havoc prophecy ?

[marsh belfry]

No generic runes u take

[warped night]

no, there's the "x runes" prophecy

[steady yew]

pretty sure the only reliable way to get them with prophecies is getting the 20+ runes and rune echo with the tomb to maximise the area loot target

[warped night]

I've also found that the rune focusing lens actually makes them appear less often, since they're not a "rare" prophecy

[runic finch]

does healing hands not trigger when using warpath?

the "trigger on melee hit" part

[frigid zenith]

it triggers once then not until you stop and re-spin

[runic finch]

big oof

[wooden mountain]

lots of "on direct cast/attack" stuff doesn't work as you'd wish with channeling skills

[brazen crater]

Is judgement the new healing hands divine bolt basically?

[simple reef]

i dont really see how they are similar aside from being potentially very tanky lol

[waxen nymph]

It's not when you hit or on hit
It's when you use and hit a target
Warpath is used once per channel

[simple reef]

judgement actually does damage, can't say i've seen HH bolts do that (though i might just be uninformed)

[brazen crater]

Is there a speed clear version of judgement?

[waxen nymph]

Judgement Aura?

[simple reef]

yeah

[slow root]

How do i go about testing my judgement damage ? Gotta figure out how my affixes are affecting my damage output

[marsh belfry]

Guess were going glasscanon

[shadow abyss]

Best way is boss dumny 1 judgement

[marsh belfry]

or play around with ubberroth

if its huge differences u will notice

[slow root]

Uberroth ? I haven't even unlocked empowered monos yet 😆

[simple reef]

mathematics

[slow root]

🤮

[jade python]

guys? 2 handed sword/ axe or dubble wielding ?

whats your favorite?

[waxen nymph]

Really depends on the build

[jade python]

so you dont have a preference?

[waxen nymph]

Not really

[arctic wave]

ideally if its your first time doing it you want enough HP to not get one shot by basic flail swings or the initial stomp of his ground of destruction so you can survive long enough to learn his moves

other than that its entirely possible to beat him with just 1 LP gear

not particularly easy though

if MG and you can buy a immortal vise off market then its much easier too

[umbral granite]

you can also play with someone else who can beat uberroth and have them gift you a 0lp vise if you're cof

[wicked turret]

how do you guys farm corrupstion so fast?

i feel like even going in a straight line and getting 6/7 corruption per run is really slow

[arctic wave]

spam the orobyss woven echo

you dont have to go all teh way out then, just need the nearest cemetery

[wicked turret]

which one is that?

[arctic wave]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/endgame/monolith/woven-echoes/confluence-of-oblivion

if youre just starting out and dont have too many of these then youre slightly cooked and have to just grind the normal way

[wicked turret]

yeah new

how do you even get those

dont got any of em

[turbid dome]

most woven echos just drop or you can buy them from the weaver faction guy @wicked turret

tho conflux of oblivion has a node on the weaver tree for it

[forest kelp]

Back to VK, 2 days for Lich Stygian Coal make me sick 🥶

[turbid dome]

[forest kelp]

I found a Champion Regalia 3x7 and started imprinting it 😁

[frigid zenith]

you can do the hit version without the ground aura

much less tanky since no heal stacking tho

[analog wolf]

i want to build a fire shield throw paladin, just focus on hit damage instead of ignite. Am I doomed from the start?

[waxen nymph]

No, as long as you don't mix Spell Dmg from Lava Burst and Throw Dmg from the shield Hit

[frigid zenith]

how doomed am I if I want to do throw+spell damage javelin with turani 💀

[waxen nymph]

I am sure you can do 300c
Not sure after that

But don't forget to try to scale Electrify at the same time

[gusty abyss]

spell throw and dot? Bettter to pick one, imo.

[waxen nymph]

Was a joke

[frigid zenith]

💀

[runic finch]

so im having problems with my sentinel. i tried erasing strike, but the THUMP noise of the skill really bothers me. i tried switching to warpath, but the spinning is making me dizzy. anyone have any suggestions? maybe void smite?

[frigid zenith]

have you tried turning off screenshake for ES

I find that it's much less loud without the screenshake (even though it's technically not an audio setting)

[runic finch]

i have, its still a loud THUMP

i wanted to play melee :(

[winged spruce]

anyone playing i need a boost taging along

[frigid zenith]

rive!

swish swoosh instead of thump

[slow root]

I'm about to finish normal monos for the first time as a judgement paladin and it's pretty comfy.

[runic finch]

hmm, looks like rive has a lot lower damage and AOE though :(

[frigid zenith]

it's lower damage than ES but should be higher than warpath

[runic finch]

i think judgement has limited AOE as well?

[frigid zenith]

it's clearing uber quite fast

AoE also honestly not the worst, since void cleave clears most mooks in one hit and rive sucks in whatever survives and clumps them together

[wooden mountain]

Aberroth's Command / Void Cleave aura, is there a decent clearspeed build there?

or is it just much worse than judgement aura

[slow root]

You can make it big for mapping with a certain node

You just put it on the ground and monsters die when they try to follow you

[frigid zenith]

tbh tho you just won't get any melee with comparable aoe and damage to ES 😄

it's the outlier of this patch's melee with all the damage and the AoE

[runic finch]

so this is apparently converted to void penetration?

because it says nothing about converting phys penetration to void penetration

[frigid zenith]

it does in LEtools, not sure about in-game

actually, try pressing alt

it's probably hidden there

[runic finch]

thanks

but otherwise if you have +added physical damage, it wont convert it to void right?

[frigid zenith]

correct

for most (if not all) melee attack it basically just affects the universal damage and changing the skill tag, since melee attacks basically never have a base damage unlike spells

[runic finch]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/build-guides/swordcatcher-rive-void-knight can someone explain why this build does not use "reduced damage from critical strikes"?

[frigid zenith]

it has blind from abyssal echoes

for bosses it's reliable enough and it has enough mobility to apply it on champions/elites as soon as you see them, while for random ranged mooks you fail to reach in time it has more than enough bulk to tank a crit anyway

[runic finch]

thanks

[frigid zenith]

tho if you want more guaranteed safety you can switch out a health slam for that armor+reduced damage from crit

[chilly peak]

Out of curiosity: RR's on Judgement Pala, does that make any sense to you? We just had the question elsewhere here and I wonder if that really could make any sense

[dense tendon]

it's a good item but it's basically capped to 1 lp and judge actually benefits from ring affixes

[chilly peak]

Hence the question.

On top comes for me, that Judgement is not a natural attribute stacker, and that you get more of what you already have a lot of

[runic finch]

i dont understand how this works. flame drinker consumes all stacks of ignite to grant void penetration, so why put 3 points here?

[frigid zenith]

how it works seems to be -> apply ignite -> check for savagery/grant damage -> consume the ignite

so all the hits still benefit from savagery, eevn the hit that consumes the ignite and the hit immediately after

[runic finch]

i see, thanks

hmm, trying rive out now and the AOE seems lacking

[frigid zenith]

AoE from Rive hits itself is limited

for mono clears the void cleave will be doing a lot of work since it basically cleans all the mobs it passes through

then you suck in the rest with rive

it won't ever be comparable to ES tho

[runic finch]

i wish i could fix the ES sound :(

[crisp herald]

anyone mind sharing what their ES char looks like roughly for doing uber abb? Wanna try down him before path on friday but reckon need farm some upgrades first

[turbid dome]

link your build and I can give you some tips for it (its easier to help if I can see what your current stuff is)

[crisp herald]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/profile/Gaeb/character/Gaebb

working on getting a 0.5 crit axe and the right helm base for crit reduction the now

[turbid dome]

beyond that I would say

• 2 lp titan heart with +4 to ES and %increased health
• 2 lp shattered chains with T7 %increased health and cleanse aliments (can be T1)
• Drop world eater and devouring blades, put the points into "Dark maw" instead (siphon will cover all your leech needs)
• if you have a siphon with higher "chance to apply doom on hit" legendary that, you only need like 1% leech to be good anyways and doom is a big damage boost
• Go to the training dummies at champions gate and see how many armor shred stacks you can sustain, your goal is to sustain at least 40-50 shred stacks (40 stacks is roughly 40% more non-phys hit damage). If your not sustaining that much get gloves with armor shred chance on them

beyond getting the better helmet as well, your gear build looks solid otherwise

[crisp herald]

will do cheers mate, I have the 2lp belt ready, just trying to find the slam and actually just dropped a decent rolled 3lp siphon

[turbid dome]

noice

also if you get 2 more passive points drop down to only 5 points in abyssal endurance and put 5 points into doom knight

also also, you can bring a last laugh (unique sword) and execute uber void boi when he's at 20% health remaining

[turbid dome]

don't view just max hp, view your ehp vs max hit in LE tools

[unborn cypress]

Has anyone here tried the forge guard forged weapons build on maxroll by amarathy?

[turbid dome]

that looks to be good

[pseudo parcel]

[steep trail]

for uber thats more than enough

[warped night]

yeah, but the strike 2 pulling enemies does make up for that a bit in terms of clearing. love me some rive vacuum

event horizon shield rush fg is actually so much better than I thought it would be. I'm actually pretty happy with it

[turbid dome]

event horizon is just fun to use in general

[warped night]

I still have a good bit of gear improvement I can do too, so there's a decent bit of room for improvement

[warped night]

yeah, it's just so goofy. Shield rush being able to get around the attack speed reductions is a fun interaction

[hollow veldt]

Is this for Uber killer ?

[hollow veldt]

still looking for the best planner for ES uber pls if someone have

[crisp herald]

How import is the t7 ES on chest? over getting t7 health/mana etc

[turbid dome]

That’s entirely dependent on which nodes you lose on ES tree

[hollow veldt]

are there any high corrupt variant for ES with void cleave ?

[frigid zenith]

ES can run with void cleave + abyssal echoes no problem

it'll run as high corruption as any other ES variant

[hollow veldt]

i mean wich skill should i replace for the void cleaver

[frigid zenith]

Has anyone tried running non-sierpin javelin with siege barrage (or sierpin without dex stacking)? How effective is the single target damage? I'm mainly trying to figure out how important the increased AoE from sierpin is for making multiple spears from the barrage hit the same target

void cleave replaces healing hands

[hollow veldt]

i been using regular varitant with symbols of hope and anomaly and healing hnds

[frigid zenith]

since both act as your traversal skill

[hollow veldt]

ok thanks

[night rock]

void cleave variant is much better once your mana pool and items catch up, imo. better traversal, overleech, and a better panic button against uberoth with rebuke vs HH moving you somewhere you may nto want to go on axi-dent

[hollow veldt]

any idea on skill tree for void cleave §

on mapping

[warped night]

traversal conversion, abyssal echoes usage, extra charge

[waxen nymph]

You don't loose any dmg, the AoE increase is really minimal

[warped night]

rest depends on needs

ravaging aura is nice too for constant leech

[runic finch]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/build-guides/swordcatcher-rive-void-knight has anyone tried this build? i cant sustain the mana cost for void cleave casting abyssal echoes

Created by udgard · Jun 6, 2025, 8:38 AM

[runic finch]

i have to constantly stop to use rive to recharge mana

which doesnt feel smooth

[warped night]

Rive is your main DPS skill, so you shouldn't have problems

Void cleave hits harder, but the sustained DPS is lower

[runic finch]

the problem is that i run out of mana using void cleave to move around the map

because it auto casts abyssal echoes

[warped night]

idk it's probably a playstyle issue? I don't have any problems like that with my rive vk. It's not quite that version, but similar. Are you spamming through all of your void cleave charges?

I mostly void cleave to a pack, rive to kill it, then void cleave to the next

[frigid zenith]

I tried spamming cleave off cooldown without pressing rive and just the passive regen was keeping enough mana to use VC off cooldown (~15 mana/s with ~2.5s VC cooldown)

but if you're having mana issues atm try getting 1 point in void well

it should make it much smoother

or take off the abyssal echoes autocast for now

[hallow herald]

how do you find multi affix exalts? and with the affixes you want, like for say judgement pala, how would i get block chance, block effect, and reduce damage on block

[waxen nymph]

1. spam nemesis and get multi exalted items (ideally wait for a shield)
2. imprint, spam imprint and pray

[runic finch]

im auto casting devouring orb and abyssal echoes, and abyssal echoes is costing like 38 mana for me so my passive mana regen cant keep up

[runic finch]

extremely unlikely to get multiple t7 exalts unfortunately.

its probably easier to get lp2/3 uniques than a double t7 exalt, let alone a double t7 exalt that you want

[warped night]

I don't use devouring orb on mine. It doesn't offer enough imo, so I don't have that mana sink

void res shred comes from anomaly for me, and void essence comes from passives

[gentle panther]

Tell me, I want to make a big bonk on the head of mobs, but how will the Erasing Strike build work without World Splitter? if it drop me later

[warped night]

You'd need to have flat melee crit on your weapon, and you likely won't be able to spam it as much

erasing strike builds of old used dreamthorn, a well rolled hollow blade, or apathy's maw

[frigid zenith]

I'd try taking off auto-cast echoes for now or get void well then. As far as gameplay goes, are you not finding enemies between void cleave cooldowns that you're going to rive anyway? Try linking your build so we could check what might be causing the issue.

[runic finch]

yea, sometimes you can rive a straggler but it feels awkard to me. compared to using erasing strike to nuke a big group for example, and you dont need to bother generating mana by hitting a stray mob. i can see why ES is the most popular build because its just so efficient once you get the pieces in place to sustain it, but the sound effect just really bothers me so i had to find another build to play. best solution atm seems to be to disable the auto casting of abyssal echoes i guess.

another thing that bothers me is how sentinel doesnt get access to a traversal skill that moves you for the full distance in a direction unless you use shield charge. void cleave and healing hands only move you to the exact spot the cursor is aiming at, so if you want to move further, you need the cursor at the edge of the screen. and i really dislike moving my cursor to the edge of the screen constantly.

[runic finch]

what do you use instead of devouring orb?

[warped night]

symbols

this is my character https://www.lastepochtools.com/profile/kidpid/character/ThereWillBeBlood

I use darkstrides for monos

[runic finch]

hmm, but if you are stacking vitality, then devouring orb would give +20% more void damage

and some damage from the devouring orbs + abyssal orbs as well

[warped night]

I'm not stacking vit as heavily as they are

[runic finch]

hmm, fair enough

[warped night]

everything comes with an opportunity cost. I felt that what I had to give up to get that much wasn't worth it

[sly magnet]

it technically does scale with attack speed, but being below 1 attacks per second is desired due to mana refund bug. if you go too slow though you are losing dps. i've messed with it and Bina tested on his stream recently and thought 0.91 was about as fast as you want to go.

[warped night]

I'm just spamming it for the final hit and echo so I don't really care about the channeled hits

what's the mana refund bug?

[waxen nymph]

If you go too fast you dont get your mana back

[warped night]

Oh yeah I have seen that a few times

Good to know

[sly magnet]

it's not about the channeled hits, it's the frequency the skill activates. if you go too low on attack speed, it simply hits less frequently. maybe not a big deal with event horizon since you are getting bonuses while your attack speed is slowing. i haven't mathed it out to see if it's worth it. it felt pretty slow when i messed with it for a few mins on a dummy though.

[warped night]

feels good enough to me ¯_(ツ)_/¯

even if it's sub-optimal I'm going to continue pushing it for the memes at the very least

[sly magnet]

yeah all good

i'm using it with world splitter and shield on forge guard. pretty strong build for everything but uber. i think it's uber capable, but not something i'd want to do more than once. best i've done so far is getting to his final phase heal.

[warped night]

damn that's pretty good. I also think it's possible with some better gear on the event horizon setup, but yeah the playstyle is a bit taxing lol

I just threw this together last night with whatever gear I had laying around, so there's quite a bit of room for improvement

[warped night]

gonna be tough to get both since you already have a sealed affix

could add mana, try and havoc until both suffixes are the exalt, redemption and hope for shred, then havoc back

but that's a lot of hoping

alternatively you could add mana, havoc until mana gets t7, try glyph of chaos and see what you get

[haughty canopy]

Is the ms/hh/smite divine bolt combos with palarus still a thing? Likely ignite fire

[forest kelp]

https://youtu.be/sYNjUxAMe9M?si=SkuOdk3R1zva_E7E
Perhaps this is an extremely powerful damage variant you need for void clear. I'm also using it and killing Uber in under a minute

If you have a Shattered World 2LP, slamming T7 mana and +4 void clear also grants 3 stacks of void clear as well as a significant damage buff

Basically, this build is an update from the season 1.1 build; anyone who played last season would know

[forest kelp]

First 3lp titan heart

[sly magnet]

for a sec there i thought this was a poe screenshot with all the loot labels everywhere

nice rolls on it too

[simple reef]

i know right

somebody get this man a loot filter

[tawdry surge]

That's a solid 3lp titan's, but I cannot believe you play like that.

[forest kelp]

It's just that I want it that way. I have rules to filter unique items by name and lp. All I need to do is change the line 'show all unique' to 'hide'

[forest kelp]

I played like that for a long time before there was a filter by unique name

🥹

[tawdry surge]

Well, def glad they have loot filters

[uneven gorge]

single best change this year

[forest kelp]

@vale lantern ur affixs u need lol

[forest kelp]

The harsh reality is that I have a lot of hot items for Time Rot, but I don’t like this build 😂

[steep trail]

gimme

[forest kelp]

Oh, the Titan Heart 3lp, I'll use it myself. I've already managed to imprint 3lp armor

[wooden mountain]

anyone tried fire converted abyssal echoes? Seems like you should be able to get a lot of hits and consequently a lot of ignites

[grizzled ravine]

Ik I asked in another chat but it’s more appropriate to ask here. Which is easier to get running with bare minimum gear, timerot or ES. Bare minimum extends to their harbinger uniques

[waxen nymph]

ES

[forest kelp]

The other day, I was party leveling with a friend who built Time Rot. It seems like he didn't need much gear to get started either?

[forest kelp]

2xVise 2lp in 10min 🙀

[wicked turret]

after octupus guy is there other hard timeline?

[dense tendon]

maybe the wings of argentus guy

[vivid mortar]

Imprinting multi exalted items helps get more of them correct?

[flint inlet]

yes but they are still extremely rare:(

[sweet stag]

does righteous overload from the smite skill tree scale with the other nodes on the tree?

[waxen nymph]

Yes

At least it should

[sweet stag]

Thanks!

[pseudo parcel]

first one is nasty, gz!

[unborn cypress]

Can someone tell me where we get all our crit chance from for ES VK? I see on world splitter, symbols of hope, and void corruption passive. But that doesn't add up to 100. Where is the rest coming from?

Oh and Mortal Cleave

[flint inlet]

world splitter +mortal cleave+5% base and then increased crit from symbols and anomaly

[unborn cypress]

With anomaly active i only have 39% crit

[flint inlet]

listed on the sheet?

[unborn cypress]

Yes

[flint inlet]

that should be more than enough since the sheet doesn't count world splitter

[unborn cypress]

But world splitter is 15% crit with ES correct?

[flint inlet]

yes....but the sheet only shows generic crit chance

[unborn cypress]

Doesn't that only put me up to 54% then?

[flint inlet]

15% with 0.5% world splitter...mine is only 0.4% so 12%

[waxen nymph]

Usually you have 2 pts there

Thats 6% Flat

[unborn cypress]

So that takes it to 60%

[waxen nymph]

+5% Base

• 5 % Cleave
• 15% World Spliter

Thats 31% Flat Crit before increase

[flint inlet]

no...you add all base crit first then multiply by increased crit...so say for generic melee base crit is 10 and sheet crit chance is 39% then roughly 10->39=3.9 multiplier so for ES it becomes (10+15)*3.9 which is close to 100

[unborn cypress]

Why do people say you must use a .5% world splitter?

[waxen nymph]

Cause it frees slots for other stuff on gear and skill

[flint inlet]

because anomaly isn't 100% up and it is harder to crit cap if you don't have 0.5% world splitter

harder to crit cap without anomaly that is

although admitedly ES is just a lot of damage so you definitely don't NEED 0.5% WS

I only have a 0.4% one and I can kill uber just fine

damage is not what gets me killed htere anyway

[unborn cypress]

So how much crit chance should I see in my character sheet in order to get 100% with ES?

Assuming I'm using a .5 world splitter

[flint inlet]

use the excel sheet in the pinned messages

[crisp herald]

If you play seed helm for ES where do you find crit reduction? Or seed strong enough that you just leave it

[flint inlet]

paladin tree passive is one spot

blinding lights

[unborn cypress]

Nice I'll try that

[slate fractal]

🔨 👼 🛡️

[unborn cypress]

Nevermind figured it out

[unborn cypress]

How much do you guys spend in Anomaly crit chance node? (Decimation)

It looks like with 120% put into the Anomaly crit node you will only need a .4 world splitter to get to 98% crit

Then add 6% increased crit on idol enchants and boom you're at 100%

[wicked turret]

how do you get this idol

i cant seem to get it anywhere

[forest kelp]

idol general stick in armor

[wicked turret]

??

i dont get it

[forest kelp]

It drops when receiving prophecies or the monsters in the cemetery

[turbid dome]

triggered skills that have a cooldown need to be on the bar

[forest kelp]

Based on Noob's calculator, I have 36.5 base crit and 205 increased crit, but I don’t see myself dealing normal damage with Erasing Strike unless I remove the ring with 95% increased crit

Something wrong with me

[simple reef]

screenshot?

[fickle tulip]

sounds about right, 36.5 * (1+2.05)= 111% Crit chance

205% increased means multiply your base crit chance by 305%

[forest kelp]

Oh, my mistake...

[forest kelp]

In pinned

Perhaps I lost my mind after the COVID treatment; lately, I’ve been thinking I’ve aged multiple times 😭

[simple reef]

im still confused about what confused you but thats ok

[lilac sparrow]

Bazaar

Or best way is to farm on tomb

[wicked turret]

Bazzar?

[lilac sparrow]

Never skip tomb even if the mission on monolith is done

[lilac sparrow]

You can easily buy it for dirt cheap if you play MG

There is something better tho

Mana and mana Regen + health and mana

But this will cost you more than 500m gold

[wicked turret]

Ahh im using COF

https://tenor.com/view/dog-sunset-javgag-gif-6354990519690233079

[lilac sparrow]

Then there's only one way for you

Just keep farming and pray harder 🙏

Someday you will get it

[wicked turret]

It be like that

[leaden yoke]

hello guys

is judgement pally a good corruption farmer?

[forest kelp]

Can farm at 3k corruption or higher, but the speed is slow, and I absolutely hate those lizards

[leaden yoke]

so the build just made for farming uberroth?

and the only option is ES VK

[turbid dome]

Nah it def works for corruption, the hardest thing to scale is defense once you get to high corruption

Other builds are just faster than the beef cake paladin

But the other builds also die way easier

[forest kelp]

It was the best build last season, capable of farming at 1k corruption for paladin, and notably, it doesn’t require much gear to start

[turbid dome]

Yee

[forest kelp]

rip me ☠️

[lilac sparrow]

Reminds me

I wonder if I could cook mantle of ox on FG

Let me test this

[forest kelp]

FG uses it a lot

[lilac sparrow]

Ok time to play this

What main skill do you recommend

[forest kelp]

Shield throw crit

[lilac sparrow]

Hmm 🤔

Do I use the shield looking axe too

Interesting let me try this

[turbid dome]

We love the shield axe

[lilac sparrow]

@turbid dome do you guys do shield throw without CD

[lilac sparrow]

What does ironblade scales

[wooden mountain]

Iron blades are a melee attack subskill of vengeance so they should scale with flat melee damage, %increased of whatever damage type vengeance is converted to and your flat melee damage is, crit, damage on vengeance skill tree.

Stuff like that

[forest kelp]

It's really hard for me

[leaden yoke]

you mean armor? so just stacking str i guess

but isnt it capped at 70 or so

sorry im new to this game

[forest kelp]

pray for me 🙏

[leaden yoke]

prayge

[forest kelp]

😭

[leaden yoke]

F

never lucky

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/planner/o39ih0sb

Can you guys pleave give me advice. Atm im farming corruption 600 but its slow

[forest kelp]

Find belt 2lp and helmet+4 healing hands, things that could be easily found

[hollow veldt]

at least u still have the base for print

[waxen nymph]

No

Or as a'support skill for Colossus stacks

[lilac sparrow]

Hmm I kinda wanna use phalanx instead

[leaden yoke]

about skill/passive

what i should change to farm faster?

[forest kelp]

Divine essence 4 point

• 2 point healing hands for blessed parish

Oh, Judgement aura build 🫡

[leaden yoke]

you mean i should change to aura build?

i see many ppl showcase that they dont use aura but i just see the clear speed is giga slow...

[forest kelp]

I only see people choosing it when leveling; no one runs high corruption with it, as it’s too mana-intensive

[leaden yoke]

ah okay

i'll change stuff as you just said above

about the helm, i can get 4 HH but no % hp or low one, or low implicit stat (reduce dmg on crit)

is it okay?

[forest kelp]

Farming at 600c, you don’t need too much HP

you only need them when you go higher

[leaden yoke]

ah okay

btw about ring, is crab ring good?

i have LP3 crab ring

wanna put healing effective/DOT ele to it

as i dont have LP2 flame of midknight atm

i have many LP0 flame of midknight but dunno how to do egg faster

[forest kelp]

more block effectiveness if you can, and especially remember one thing: do not activate Symbol of Hope

[forest kelp]

3lp if you have no other choice; I prefer Infernal Flames of Midnight because it provides MS and penetration

[leaden yoke]

crab ring give swiftness aswell but no penetration yea

[forest kelp]

Pick up all the Sunwreath 1-2lp and bring them to the turtle; you’ll notice some surprises. Once, I got all 4 rings with 4lp in a single turn

[leaden yoke]

i have multiple LP3 sunwreath

[forest kelp]

But you can easily do better, why not?

[leaden yoke]

i'll try that

about the belt, what stats i should focus

[forest kelp]

Warden's echo node weaver tree

[leaden yoke]

sorry wdym

i mean i should slam hybrid heal affix

or max health on the belt

[forest kelp]

I'm still rerolling this damn thing

[leaden yoke]

can i see your profile

You guys farm gear from folly + cemetery + trove strats?

[forest kelp]

Just learned this trick a little over 2 weeks ago; before that, I was always running solo Echo. Recently, I’ve been trying to invite others to play Co-op

But I only create them when playing with others; if playing solo, I’ll imprint Folly and make use of other Woven Echoes

[fluid apex]

Is this the right place for beginner questions? I'm trying to level as a Warpath VK, made it into the 20's and it's okay but doesn't feel super fast, especially on bosses. Would a different leveling build produce better results, or do I just need more levels to access the juicy VK abilities?

this is more... aspirational than achievable, getting all the uniques, LP4, and the exalted items with all their affixes exalted T7s sound very impossible. From my knowledge atleast

and hello, Im trying to work on this warpath VK, still havent gotten a clotho's needle, but can i get tips on what to focus next, i have this helmet base lined up to get the channel cost reduction affix shard to put into it but i thought id as if anyone could advise me on a better way to approuch in improving the build.

If you’re planning to build Warpath with Clotho’s, I sincerely advise you to give up and be human. I’ve been rolling for two months straight and still don’t know what a good Clotho’s looks like. Even getting T7 flat melee void damage is incredibly tough 🙏

[grizzled ravine]

its honestly a temporary build , cuz im moving to ES soon

I just dont know if this build can even gun for a harbinger rn

[leaden yoke]

idk why people say Warpath is meta

in maxroll, its #1

[grizzled ravine]

its more annoying to play tbh, im only surviving cuz i wanna do ES

what would u guys suggest otherwise then

[frigid zenith]

You could already swap to ES now tbh

Just use the beacon variant until you farm your world splitter

[grizzled ravine]

i dont got world splitter

beacon? variant?

[frigid zenith]

with this I meant

[grizzled ravine]

may you pls clarify sire

oh

[frigid zenith]

I did warpath/ES while farming the WS

spin, use ES on cooldown, spin again while waiting for the cooldown to end

[grizzled ravine]

there a guide for that or we wingin it

[frigid zenith]

just wing it 😄

well, it's pretty much the same as WS ES

you just don't take the no CD node

since probably not enough mana yet either

[grizzled ravine]

i think i wont mix it up with my current setup and only switch when i get a WS

[grizzled ravine]

there anything i can do with this helm tho? I honestly dont know how to craft a channel cost helmet properly

[frigid zenith]

9:26 uber start, 12:22 uber finish

teeeeeeeeechnically 2 mins uber, I guess 😅

I mean it looks great don't get me wrong, but that title does feel kinda baity when it's 3-4 secs away from not being 2 min

that warpath size tho 👀 almost full screen

[frigid zenith]

you just slam the channel cost affix on it then havoc it until the channel cost becomes exalted

getting all the non exalted affix to the same tier might help with the havoc-ing if you can get there without sacrificing too many FP

[grizzled ravine]

i only have 3 havoc runes tho

is there a way to get more?

[frigid zenith]

the gambling dungeon if you're MG, or generic rune prophecies if you're CoF (trigger the prophecies in cemeteries/tombs)

[leaden yoke]

prophecy helps

also just regular farming more

[frigid zenith]

it'a also always an option to just craft regularly to tier 5 and leave getting exalted for later as you gear up gradually

[grizzled ravine]

that is my original plan, but i just cant get the affix shards

ive been sitting at 3 shards for a while now

[chilly peak]

Btw just on that Needle/VK WP topic: The build is really already nice with a nice well rolled Apathys Maw. Yeah it is not best in slot, but it is farmable and does a good job until you hit a nice needle

[chilly peak]

Prophecies usually ignore area and area level, did devs confirm it is other for this prophecies? Cause I'd strongly assume it will not matter where you pop them, as for any other prophecy

[frigid zenith]

Honestly? I can't say for sure. The people who "discovered" the tech thinks it's dropping more in cemeteries/tombs and I never really bothered testing

[chilly peak]

Anyone known with reputation who brought this up or is advertising this? Don't get me wrong, but we have a lot strange info going around in S2 and I have seen much of bad advice.

Also don't get me wrong that I would really know any better. But from everything that we know about prophecies, this sounds not logical at all, but I try to get an answer from Mike on this question

[lilac sparrow]

lol imagine having all t7 gears

[lilac sparrow]

what is this gambling dungeon

[frigid zenith]

Allie made a video on this based on another post on reddit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pC0uCj1HDb0

[frigid zenith]

the, mountain one iirc?

[chilly peak]

Yes, Lightless Arbor it is

[chilly peak]

I can crush the complete reddit post with one single anecdotal experience: I even dropped Havocs from campaign Majasa 😄

What can you expect if you have a full board of generic runes, if you do it in Cemeteries/Tombs, I guess around 100-120? (Wealth/Rhyme)

[frigid zenith]

I think I got ~80ish with just wealth?

I only ever had to do it once so I don't really remember

getting the exalt bases are much more of an issue than the havocs 😄

[chilly peak]

Now I'm more curious what Mikes feedback is. One board is not a very big sample size, but 80 with only Wealth would be indeed a tad more then I would expect from a board procced all over the place.

But as prophecies ignore player and area level, it is hard to imagine, that the place matters

[forest kelp]

The intensity of rune usage by you guys is impressive. I’ve never target-farmed runes, but I already have over 500+ Havoc and don’t know how to use them all 😂

[chilly peak]

wtf

You have all the multi exalts and I use all the Havocs (in vain) - what's going wrong here 😄

[hollow veldt]

if anyone need 2H axe 7/7/6 dm me

[chilly peak]

If it is in HC and you want to play a day with me for the Obsidian, then I'm interested 😄

[forest kelp]

I’ve used them a lot, but it seems like the number I picked up is even higher?

[chilly peak]

I'm rather getting into a love/hate relationship with this one ^^

[hollow veldt]

where u farm that much or u stackng from day one ?

[chilly peak]

Btw, look how the numbers are displayed for me: 😄

Even with a digit less on the refine runes

[forest kelp]

If accumulate this number, it must surely be 2000+, just ran normal echo

I’ve never spent my favor on runes

[chilly peak]

But Havocs are so nice!

[forest kelp]

My frequency of using Redemption is higher, even though the ratio of picking them up is probably 2:3. I only use them with exalted dual or triple T7. That’s probably the reason for the difference in our contrasting quantities

[runic finch]

are there any void spell builds other than smite or time rot?

[forest kelp]

Summon @turbid dome

[turbid dome]

Someone called

[turbid dome]

Yeah you can use basically every void spell as a main skill

[chilly peak]

https://tenor.com/view/excited-listening-go-on-jon-stewart-gif-7666771

[turbid dome]

Anomaly is a little weird to use as a main skill but you can easily use it as a tactical nuke button on a short cooldown

[runic finch]

i see, thanks

[turbid dome]

Ideally tho since you can automate a lot of it, orbiting turret dorbs should just be on auto cast while you direct cast something else

[lilac sparrow]

You can play

Exploding devouring orb

[forest kelp]

@chilly peak an item like this has to cost 10 runes 😆

[chilly peak]

On that base, how beautiful! ❤️

[vivid storm]

How do ppl build forge strike

do they prefer using the minions or the slam

[leaden yoke]

hello Volin ❤️

[wooden mountain]

AFAIK the minions are generally the stronger choice, if you want a big melee bonk then there are better options

[lilac sparrow]

Huh I thought they just convert the minions

[lilac sparrow]

Any other big melee to use as FG tho

[wooden mountain]

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/forged-weapons-forge-guard-guide

[wooden mountain]

void cleave

[lilac sparrow]

Physical?

Hmm

What two handed sword to use

[wooden mountain]

fire/void with that sword which gives gigabuff to fire/void attacks every 2s maybe

it adds like 240 flat fire to void and 240 flat void to fire and the skill can have both tags

[lilac sparrow]

I was thinking of something physical to synergize with shield throw

Oh really

[vivid storm]

Kk. I was curious since its tree has so many nodes to buff the player using it

[wooden mountain]

yeah there's a node before the full fire conversion node which adds the fire tag to void cleave but doesn't actually convert it from void

[turbid dome]

yeah that node is juice with eternal eclipse

I think its the only melee skill that can have both the fire and void tag

[wooden mountain]

I think that build does have a few issues getting enough %increased given the split between fire and void but it's just so much flat to build off

[turbid dome]

I tried it in the past and just went for %melee damage increases

even with an ideal set up tho I don't think a set 2s cooldown is gonna work great, I hope eternal eclipse gets a change in the future

[wooden mountain]

there are a lot of slots you can get eg inc fire or inc void where you cant get inc melee tho right?

[turbid dome]

its accessories where you can't, but I went for strength there cause void cleave has strength scaling

so with strength on rings it kinda does have %increased melee damage

[lilac sparrow]

Wait does shield throw colossus can apply to void cleave?

[turbid dome]

I mean I guess yes? but void cleave doesn't do physical damage so not entirelly sure what the plan is

[lilac sparrow]

@turbid dome I mean using the blazing steel node

Physical dmg applies to void cleave

[turbid dome]

also no, increased physical damage is not physical pen

[lilac sparrow]

Oh rip 😔

So no good?

[turbid dome]

only %increased physical damage will work, so sadly no good

[lilac sparrow]

Guess I'll go back to phalanx javelin and shield throw

[turbid dome]

best of luck

[forest kelp]

I need mtx for javelin 🥹

I’m disappointed with the Judgement mtx after using it; I only used it once

[turbid dome]

Yea some of the first wave of mtx are winners

[forest kelp]

The last day for the Argentum Myrmidon armor set sale for those who need it; I’m waiting for the Oblivion Champion set sale

[warped night]

I had fun with forge strike spam last season, and it's probably better this season, but I decided to try something else with my FG. tl;dr - dual wield to get as much attack speed as possible, convert forge strike to no cooldown, get a good "mana gained on hit" roll with rive or vengeance, chug through mana to spam forge strike as much as possible

[vivid storm]

Ooh

I never considered that since i wanted to try the shield 2h combo rly bad
I came from poe2 so i was super tempted to try it here

[warped night]

I want to try using azurral's fury with forge strike spam sometime soon.

the idea being - get to max mana, chug a potion to get the +100 melee fire damage, drop the hammer until you run out mana, repeat

[vivid storm]

Sweet

[warped night]

I put together a hasty planner that I'll inevitably tweak once I start playing the build https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/olarP06A

[vivid storm]

Any other sentinel builds that dual wield?

Thnxx

[turbid dome]

smite

[warped night]

I've seen some warpath VKs go dual wield with aberroth's command

I also liked the idea of void cleave spam while using vengeance for the bonus damage using aberroth's command

[turbid dome]

its a cool idea

[warped night]

another build I never got around too lol 😅

I've got more build ideas than time to play them

that one's fairly simple though, aberroth's comand + eye of reen/scissor of atropos, darkstride. just using void vengeance w/ void cleave as an instant skill so you never have to stop using vengeance

[vivid storm]

Im running rive VK but i constantly get +4 warpath/multistrike chestpieces so im thinking of switching to smth else soon

[warped night]

I feel that. rive vk is my primary farming build right now

• uber killer

[turbid dome]

Rive 👍

Turns out doubling the stats from a twohander is strong

[warped night]

plus the full void conversion opened up so many options for weapons

sword catcher my beloved

[quiet hearth]

Full fire conversion when EHG

[warped night]

for real

add a node off the flame drinker or the hit damage to ignited enemies. ezpz

[quiet hearth]

There is zero reason for it at this point with all the other conversions we have.

[warped night]

yeah, probably just overlooked

[quiet hearth]

Nah, this feels intentional at this point, same as VC not converting the ravaging aura like most other things convert their subskills

And I dont wanna hear them say well it would be too strong with the way Smite and ES are right now xD

[frigid zenith]

rive also doesn't convert its subskill 😦

[waxen nymph]

Rive subskills arent real

They cant hurt you

[frigid zenith]

[waxen nymph]

Its just energy wave now

[turbid dome]

Lacerate gaming

[waxen nymph]

Ailment not subskill

[frigid zenith]

imagine getting a free 150% multi energy wave

on a 125% 1st hit rive

💀

would've boosted my damage so much

[turbid dome]

Shush

It’s a sub skill in my heart

[frigid zenith]

one day we'll get energy wave conversion

one day!

[waxen nymph]

There is one in Firebrand for Mage

I wonder if it converts

Look at that beauty

[forest kelp]

@vale lantern I told you, sharoon, 2xt7, and one t5

[frigid zenith]

gib

[turbid dome]

gib

[warped night]

man I'm trying to get a double T7, but with the experimental frenzy affix... The new rune prison crafter is such a downgrade from the old system

they fixed the "gotta go to tunklab to figure out what affix I'll get" issue and replaced it with so many more problems

[turbid dome]

solution: implement tunklab into the game guide

[warped night]

roughly 2 min

[turbid dome]

It’s no magic gear falconeer, but rive go brrrr

[warped night]

indeed

and once you get it setup right, and even more so once you've gotten uberroth's gear, it's very safe

[turbid dome]

go find the build of the guy who killed uber abby with only magic gear on falconeer

I have no idea how it works but I'd wager its a solid build

[hollow veldt]

if anyone have trove can share my 7/7/6 axe

[warped night]

I might be cookin right now

essence weaver FG w/ Rive energy waves 🤔

flat spell damage w/ shield node from pally

strength stack ofc, but benefits both fire damage and phys since you're stuck with phys damage on the energy wave

[turbid dome]

[warped night]

seems just dumb enough to work

[turbid dome]

genius and madness may be one in the same

[waxen nymph]

Oh yeah, energy waves 😏😏

[unborn cypress]

What should my health be at for uberroth as an es vk?

Also is getting a decent pair of eternal gauntlets essential?

[turbid dome]

What’s your ehp vs dots

[hollow veldt]

Anyone can tell how to get 1800 mana I have 1400 without relic so maybe 1550

Using ekkdidrasil

[wicked turret]

bruh at last smth i can brag about after seeing salts here

[forest kelp]

What do you need 1800 mana for? In my case, I have over 200% attack speed, so I need it

[hollow veldt]

For Uber 1 min I saw he have 1800

any Es player who killed uber can help me

[forest kelp]

100 mana only gives 10 crit multiplier, so if it's an ES build, his World Splitter definitely has attack speed

[hollow veldt]

on the 1min video he have crit multi on his splitter but i dont see the diff on dps

its weird his dmg is so op with not bis gear

[forest kelp]

I have both types of World Splitter with attack speed and crit multiplier. The time to kill Uberroth is almost the same after I got Vise with attack speed; before that, it was about 30 seconds slower with crit multiplier

[hollow veldt]

yes but with or without 2lp splitter does it make huge diff ?

or its the 1800 mana that gives more damage ?

[forest kelp]

10 mana gives 1% crit multiplier and refunds more mana, but if your attack speed is low, it doesn't matter much

Don't worry too much about the affix "damage dealt to mana before health" on your seed helmet. It's unnecessary at low corruption levels and useless at high ones

[frigid zenith]

Hi past, thanks from the future.

[wicked turret]

how do you get the t7 easing strike prefix

cant seem to get it

[turbid dome]

Random drop

Use runes of redemption and havoc

[wicked turret]

what for?

[turbid dome]

To get a T7 ES affix

[wicked turret]

i get redemtion

dont understand havo

also is the chance like better?

[turbid dome]

Yes

Assuming you set the item up properly

Basically it moves the affix tiers around while keeping the same four affixes on the item

[wicked turret]

wait so if i get like a t7 random affix and have 1 blank spot i can put erasing strike and use havoc?

[turbid dome]

You need 4 affixes on it

[wicked turret]

like when i get the item its must be 4?

or like sometimes exalted items can only drop 3 right

[turbid dome]

When you use the rune

[wicked turret]

ah

so its 1/4 chance

[turbid dome]

With one T7 yeah

[wicked turret]

you can get 2 t7 item?

[turbid dome]

Yes

[wicked turret]

tf how

[turbid dome]

Raise your corruption

[wicked turret]

how much?

lmao i havent fight aberroth yet i think

im at 171 corruption rn

[turbid dome]

Yes

Like it’s dependent on build and gear but people push a lot of corruption

[frigid zenith]

technically 1/3

[wicked turret]

true

[wicked turret]

hmmm 🤔

[frigid zenith]

only if all the other affixes are the same tier tho

[wicked turret]

also where is eternal sanctum

[frigid zenith]

otherwise it might not even move the T7

[wicked turret]

huh?

[frigid zenith]

(it could just swap a T1 and a T2)

[turbid dome]

Temporal sanctum?

[frigid zenith]

havoc forces at least one change to happen

[wicked turret]

the place where you put exalted stat to lp things

[turbid dome]

cry havoc with the rune of havoc

[frigid zenith]

if it's T7/2/2/2 then the 7 is forced to move to one of the other 3

[turbid dome]

There’s a time portal on the beach in the imperial era

You go there as part of a side quest for a water tablet

[frigid zenith]

if it's T7/2/3/1 it could just dance the latter 3

[wicked turret]

wait a min

all this time its there?

i thought it was like a place after you fight aberroth

https://tenor.com/view/dog-sunset-javgag-gif-6354990519690233079

[turbid dome]

Hit G and open the game guide

The devs made a lil booklet to explain the basics for everything

This includes directions

[wicked turret]

yeah i dont read every tab tho

[hollow veldt]

can someone look my planner and tell me whats wrong with my build i still cant beat uber getting one shot

[frigid zenith]

post away

that said a lot of the fight is also about the execution

[hollow veldt]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/profile/fr/sparkforever/character/Aladin

i keep getting one shot idk if the problem is my resistance or my damage i know the mechs

[marsh belfry]

Looks pritty normal that it oneshots you on some atacks

U missing hp on rings and helmet

[forest kelp]

Looking at the passive tree is terrifying; he went all-in on damage, so getting one-shot is understandable 😂

[valid orchid]

Does Smite's 'Fallen from Grace' convert the lightning penetration with electrify from 'Charged Hand' to void penetration with time rot?

[waxen nymph]

No

[frigid zenith]

I think you could use more armor/res

with vise you shouldn't get oneshot too much anymore

not sure if you can triple slam yet but everything else below it should be tankable

[marsh belfry]

Does jav paladin have any use of frenzy duration

I got a Shattered worlds with 1 LP +10 Attri / 23 Frenzy vs +9 Attri / 72 Frenzy duration wondering what to slam

[waxen nymph]

Is Shattered World not Frenzy Effect?

[forest kelp]

I also want to build a crit javelin character, but the 3lp spears I picked up from Exiled Mage all rolled terribly

[marsh belfry]

Yes its frenzy effect but Idk how javelin paladin works yet so im wondering if i thas any use of the effect

caus its throwing attack speed

[waxen nymph]

I mean Frenzy gives generic AS

So more Frenzy, more AS

So good stuff

[wooden mountain]

10% frenzy effect = 2% attackspeed basically

[marsh belfry]

Alright then il use the high rolled Frenzy one its only one all attribute diff

[waxen nymph]

If you have a source of Frenzy

Attribute is good too since Jav has 2 attributes scaling

[frigid zenith]

more aspd brrrr

[marsh belfry]

Right one I guess xD

[frigid zenith]

is it DoT or hit javelin?

[marsh belfry]

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/javelin-paladin-guide

Im trying to make this

so hit

[frigid zenith]

well, I'd still go for aspd one tbh

personally I'd recommend FG for phys hit jav rather than paladin

[marsh belfry]

Alright ty for info

[hollow veldt]

maybe not enough health too ? im at 3.5k

it annoy me too much just did like 50 run of uber and eachtime i die max i got him was 60%

i tried one shot passive for more damage and normal one wich is more tanky but its same

[wicked turret]

bruh is melee void damage nerfed or something cant seem to get it

[hollow veldt]

u too ?

[wicked turret]

yeah

i think best i got like t5 lmao

[hollow veldt]

ah u speaking about axes ?

[wicked turret]

yeah

https://tenor.com/view/dog-sunset-javgag-gif-6354990519690233079

i keep forgetting they dont allow gifs here

[hollow veldt]

whats ur ign

[frigid zenith]

more certainly help, but the res would probably be an easier fix

[hollow veldt]

i capped my res only cold 71

but still same

[frigid zenith]

I did my kill at 3kish hp, but basically everything oneshot me 💀

what are you getting oneshot by

[hollow veldt]

its kinda of i lack damage and that make the fight more complicated

i try stay in middle so i can easily dodge his skills

either the purple floor attack cant dodge it cuz he put his frost ball near

or the big void slam straight i just walk on it it kill me instant

[frigid zenith]

get the void res passive man

bottom right on the VK passive tree

that plus vise should stop the big void slam from being oneshot (still gotta go out of the ground dot asap tho)

for triple slam gonna need a bit more HP I think

[hollow veldt]

no im speaking about the triple

the big slam i can dodge it easily

[frigid zenith]

oh I thought you talking about the straight line slam with ground of destruction

[hollow veldt]

but yeah i took that and ill try now and tell u i dont think ill get it

[hollow veldt]

well yeah both my bad

look like elden ring

final boss

no hit

[frigid zenith]

that was basically my fight with him hahah

3k HP, no vise

any tickle killed me

I could only tank his regular flail hits

[hollow veldt]

i got him to 50%

new record

hmmm

i have 3.4k armor maybe i need more ?

[frigid zenith]

certainly would help

50% armor mitigation is kinda low

also you don't seem to have any sources of armor shred atm

[hollow veldt]

i have from Es skill +100%

man it driving me crazy im gonna drop off focus on my time rot maybe i can beat it there

[frigid zenith]

that's void shred not armor shred

and you should already be capping void shred with devouring orb + anomaly

[hollow veldt]

ah ok didnt know i thought it was same

[frigid zenith]

you could try slotting in abyssal echoes instead of d.orb (if you can maintain void essence with just the point in ES)

or drop symbols

[hollow veldt]

bro i got him 39% but he have so many circle + he killed me with triple slam

[frigid zenith]

💀

[hollow veldt]

so annoying nah its been like 100 runs and still no kill

do u have a time rot alt ?

[cunning lion]

What item should i be target farming to find +erasing strike on it to get the shard and craft it onto a chest piece after?

[waxen nymph]

It can only appear on body armor

[cunning lion]

alright guess my luck is bad bc i can't seem to find one with it

[hollow veldt]

its easy to get 1t7 ask on global chat someone will help you

[waxen nymph]

• lvl affix are on the rare side of the force

[cunning lion]

thx guys

[frigid zenith]

haven't tried making one

[cunning lion]

could i also use /Rune of removal -> Rune of discovery - > Glyphe of chaos/ on a prefix slot on a chest armor and hope to roll one?

[frigid zenith]

yes

hit the 1/3rd fail chance 😭

[wicked turret]

GoDUsopp

is left or right better?

[forest kelp]

Melee void damage after echo damage

[wicked turret]

i dont get it?

so melee void damage is more of prio?

[forest kelp]

Echo is the repetition of your hits, while melee void damage directly increases your damage

[hollow veldt]

first one

[wicked turret]

aight thanks

[hollow veldt]

try get crit multi on enchant

[vivid storm]

Does the worldsplitter work well w warpath?

Also why is “inc dmg w echoes/shadows” so strong

[frigid zenith]

the extra mana is ok but you don't get much out of the crit chance

[vivid storm]

Cuz warpath counts as dot?

[leaden yoke]

huh warpath counts as DOT?

[frigid zenith]

no because warpath mana cost isn't that big

tho I'm not sure if warrior's fury extra cost is counted there

eh nah, warrior's fury is channel cost so it won't

[vivid storm]

Ohhh

I didnt kno the game separates channel cost from mana cost scaling

Cool thnx

[waxen nymph]

No, it's multiple hits

And it scales with AS

[wooden mountain]

Channelling is basically a downside in this game

[waxen nymph]

?

[wooden mountain]

on-attack/on-cast stuff usually doesn't work as you'd hope it would with channelled skills

[waxen nymph]

On hit stuff works, on use no

[chilly peak]

WP having hits is the core of all Paladin-WP builds 🙂

[forest kelp]

Depending on the idols you have and what you want to use them for, when farming echoes below 1000c, I’d prioritize higher melee void damage because a single hit kills both creeps and bosses. I don’t need much echo

[chilly peak]

Speaking of Warpath VK: How important did you guys feel about the mana gain after +500?

I'm currently exploring this build in HC and have with around 540 mana already the feeling it couldn't get any better with the mana. I have absolutely no issues and as soon as the map is a bit more packed, I see an almost screenwide WP that perfectly sustains.

What do you think about goals beyond 800 mana, as usually seen. Does it really get any better, and how so? 😄

[dense tendon]

imo 1/5 warrior's fury is dogshit and 2/5 is definitely not playable with 500

[chilly peak]

And you were so close (👌) to giving a very helpful answer to exactly my question. 🙂

[dense tendon]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/oR7g4w4A it was playable without mana on the relic, didnt try it before that point
also 45% channel cost would be way better

[frigid zenith]

shield throw can give you colossus stacks by bouncing off you and a boss repeatedly right?

[waxen nymph]

Yes

[frigid zenith]

sweet

By the way does ring of shield's healing shield every 6s proc at the same time for all shields, or do they each have their own internal timer? And does it heal/buff yourself as well?

[waxen nymph]

All at the same time
Heal/buff you included

Also the buffs work with the heal on death

[unborn cypress]

What do you all think of Fubgunz erasing strike build video?

[simple reef]

it's a decent base

don't slam aspd on weapon

[unborn cypress]

OK. What about speccing into the 5th symbol rather than crit on symbols of hope?

[simple reef]

ye do that

[unborn cypress]

Where else can we make up for the crit chance?

[frigid zenith]

the usual suspect is anomaly

[hollow veldt]

hello noobzor if u have some time to answer me i checked ur erasing strike 57 sec video and on planner u have only 1400 mana while on vid it was 1800 can u send the good planner

[frigid zenith]

Do I need minion affixes to keep ring of shields alive (including uber)? Or can I just plug and play it?

[hollow veldt]

didnt know thanks

how much is the crit cap for es?

[marsh belfry]

Lol two ina row from tower

[unborn cypress]

@simple reef I noticed your spreadsheet for ES has an automatic 5% applied to base crit. Where does that come from?,

[waxen nymph]

@ionic inlet
Rive has a node where it gets Fire Flat per Att if you have a mace

I was thinking DW Palarus + maybe Renegade Will for the AS

1 Att get you 1.5 flat

[simple reef]

that's base crit

[marsh belfry]

Nice I got an upgrade

From 0.3 to 0.5 nice

[ionic inlet]

Ooh actual usecase then? Cant get HE from attunement from paladin passive which is kinda sad, the 5% pen per 100 HE

Also Spider mace angle? 😂

[waxen nymph]

I "theory crafted" it before 1.2

But could definitely be a Spider Mace thing too

[paper forum]

I'm a level 65 paladin doing 70+ monoliths and well, I think I scratched the surface and overwhelmed with all the reading. I'm following the leveling guide on maxroll for sentinel/paladin and while guide says use 1h+shield, I'm tearing through everything usual 2*1 handers and spamming multistrike/judgement (with +170% fire damage gear). My question is: should I just keep doing this till empowered monoliths? Guessing normal monoliths = just cannon fodder for leveling and not remotely end game? Thanks

[pseudo parcel]

I'm back from PoE.. is it time to roll a new VK or Paladin?

[pseudo parcel]

If it works for you then go for it

normal monoliths are your introduction to endgame

[paper forum]

Gotcha, I was like why is end game so easy and then I googled and the internet told me monoliths are not endgame 😦 I was feeling badass and now I'm like oh now I gotta figure out endgame 😮

[pseudo parcel]

It's kinda the early endgame where you get your hands on exalted gear

starting from empowered monoliths you can scale the difficulty to your liking

[turbid dome]

Just clear all the monos and you’ll know when it kicks into empowered monos

Then you can infinitely scale the difficulty and loot

[paper forum]

I'm sure it's not so bad but at first glance, the amount of knowledge required to play this game proper like feels overwhelming #dadlife :/

[pseudo parcel]

It's a lot when you try to do everything at once but you can ease into it

LE is very respectful of your time in my opinion

[turbid dome]

Don’t forget, you can hit G to open the in game game guide

Yea it's just me OCD kicking in. For now, I'm a wannabe barbarian, grab both swords and goto town.

just take it one step at a time and ask away, we have cool people in here

[turbid dome]

I’m stuck at work for like 14 hours every day, I yap away in here a lot

Feel free to ping me in here too

[paper forum]

I was thanking people in the game chat for being patient with me dumb questions and one of them said to visit discord.

[turbid dome]

Yee the mods here do their best to keep it not toxic

Also if your gonna Google anything, just go to last epoch tools

[pseudo parcel]

the maxroll guides are also quite alright for this game

[turbid dome]

Yeah

[paper forum]

What's the meta class for S2? (sorry, get so little time to play that I just want to roll face for a bit, like I did before I got married and started family)

[pseudo parcel]

also that's a lot of work, damn bro

[turbid dome]

End of a contract and they want to pay me x2 pay for over time

[pseudo parcel]

Erasing Strike or Warpath Void Knight are popular, so is Judgement Paladin

[turbid dome]

Void knight, Paladin and falconer are the top masteries

[pseudo parcel]

that's real solid, good for you!

[turbid dome]

Paladin is basically giga tanky but slow

Void Knight is less tanky (still beefy) but faster and kills faster

Falconer is stupid squishy but can kill the uber boss fast with only blue gear on

[paper forum]

Casting judgement and seeing hundreds of bones fly across the screen = ❤️

[turbid dome]

This guy gets it

[pseudo parcel]

Judgement can become almost immortal, it's comfy

[compact mantle]

Whats the better Judgement build? DoT or Melee?

Like, maxed out. Perf gear

[turbid dome]

Judgement is the RF of LE

[turbid dome]

Good question

I mostly see my friends doing aura dot judgement
