I see
well, if some day they change CoF to be better you already have 8 ranks lol
unless they do something w/ CoF next cycle or soon, MG will continue to be the best.
at least if they change something this cycle yeah lol
is there no way to filter items by cof requirement? wanna get some rune of ascendance fodder with refund chance
Hello everyone I am new here, Is there an easy way to share my build and ask for some feedback on how it can be improved?
nope
oof
tyvm
use the "import" on the left, so u can import the build ur character is using instead of having to do it all over in the planner
Oh wow ty, you just saved me a lot of time lol
also you can look at builds on maxroll to see if theres maybe some stuff you overlooked
that feature is life saving 😄
New to the genre, managed to beat the campaign and make it through some empowered monoliths without any build guide, but I am seeing now that my build is lacking survivability and possibly aoe clear. Any suggestions? Also still working on gear upgrades

you know, maybe a rule that hides items if they have more than 8 tiers of stats I don't want might actually be a good idea. If it has that many tiers of bad affixes , I probably won't be able to craft it into something good.
yeah thats a good point
u're not doing bad. U have 90% crit reduction, good resistances and I think good damage. You could add some health and armor for sure
2k health and a bunch more armor will make it instantly better. You could pick up the lightning blast node that gives u Lightning aegis for a full duration instead of 2 seconds from static orb
So , I got the spark nova node for lightning blast, doesn't seem to ever proc despite having reached the 100% proc chance, never do any AoE damage, is it just outright bugged, or some interaction going on? (I do have the convergence node to chain on the same target, but those two node don't mention anything incompatible)
hey random question but I'm levelling up still as a runemaster and I found Bleeding Heart Amulet and I'm basically just doing a Frost Claw spam build to level up (turning it into fire damage) and I have a bunch of ward gain from Flame Rush and Flame Ward.
Is it worth it to use the Bleeding Heart or am I just going to die?
get the node in frost claw that cleanses an ailment every time you cast. You probably already have it. Say goodbye to bleed.
Alirght thanks, do you know if it is better to commit to health OR ward, or try and balance the both? Up to this point ive been trying to balance them but I cant tell how effective it is
also, when you self-bleed, it doesn't benefit from your stats, so it's tiny damage anyway
I do have that node already that cleanses a random ailment. Does the leftover heal turn into Ward though?
Got it, it looked like it was ticking for 7 damage
i feel like ward is better i have 1k health and 1k base ward bu when im in monos using my skills i generate upto like 5k ward
do you have something that makes overheal turn into ward? I'm not aware of something like that. I don't think you really need leech with ward, but there might be something I'm not aware of.
it really depends on what ur build is capable of. you should be able to get to around 2k health without really affecting your ward. but if u find a way to just boost ward go for it. ward can get to crazy numbers for certain builds.
I think you need leech or some other way to regain health to make things like twisted heart work
that node is crazy good btw
Can't convert health to ward if you don't have any
That sounds nice, i must need to respec some points on my build because I dont think im getting anywhere near 5k lol
ah right, I'm still working on getting one of those.
yeah if u go twisted you need leech for sure. I've found that about 4% leech is enough to be at constant max hp
well i use frostclaw which is just innatley good at generating ward
exactly how much is offered by bleeding heart, what a coincidence!
Alright, ty for the help
okay so no point using it with frost claw spam? lol
or sorry is twisted heart something else
I'm a bit new LMAO
twisted heart is a relic
Ah I see, Lightning blast definietly isnt as good at that
bleeding goes up to 8 or 9!! if u can find a way to get that leech from anywhere else, you have a free amulet slot. warlock gets a free 4% leech on the lich passive tree and it's enough
hello im new to runemaster plasma orb i have t7 int helmet with t5 dex and t5 armor should i slam it on 3lp barbute or do i need t7 dex/lvl or runic invocation base?
my bleeding heart I found has 8.7% leech on it, just thought maybe it might be good
A unique one from a late game boss at that
there is a reason to use it, but you probably don't have all the items to make the combo work yet.
got it makes sense, guess I'll shelve it for now since I rolled basically the max leech on it?
Twisted Heart of Ukheiros is the item to look up. Also, Exsangineous and Last Steps of the Living.
You can still make some use of leech without it, but you don't need leech as much if you're heavy on ward as your primary defense
Like you'll still take health damage occasionally
I'm extremeyl ward heavy currently yeah
everything is just giving me ward rn, flame rush, flame ward and frost claw
yeah not really :/ I'm trying ligtning blast nodes for ward + some other mechanics but can't really make ward work on my sorceress
ward can trivialize the game. I had 20k ward on my ignite runemaster and that was just insane, could literally stand in front of bosses. THen i've seen people with 40-50k ward that's just broken imo. facetank everything without moving
just got even more leech lol tome of elements?
at the end of the season, I want to see them give out a ward award
Yeah that sounds crazy, since Ive commited to lightning blast so far I think ill try out lightning aegis, I havent really tried to impliment it into my build. Might not have a lot of ward but still doing crazy damage
constant aegis is a must. -25% damage taken is just crazy good. even more for a non-ward heavy build.
I guess aegis is what sorcs need to get instead of frostguard
also, i don't know if u have it on your build, but chance to apply frailty on hit is another really good defensive layer. it gives -6% damage dealt from the enemy and can stack 3 times. so that's another -18% damage taken basically
Lightning RMs got both 
Yeah that should make a big difference then. Any opinion on static? It does insane damage but uses so much mana, I cant decide if there is a better option yet. Also planning on trying to add frailty and lightning pen
I really ought to drop this cold silliness and join the dark side
unlimited power
never really tried static that much. You could try to spec Static Orb with the Manacharged node and overcharged detonation node. that brings the mana cost up by a lot and x4 the damage, but you can regain the mana cost with lightning blast
Best beginner runemaster build? Not many legendaries required..
cold, use frost claw to proc frost nova
get one fire spell so you can use frostguard invocation, and spec into Immutable Order so you don't have to do rotations
Kk that’s what I’m running now
what will get you into empowered monoliths
Trying to make my way into a plasma orb
Havent thought to try that, the biggest issue Ive had with static orb is not having enough points or not knowing what to do with them to make it better
i suggest you try those two and remove points from Storm Burst and Volatile Outburst. It got my tooltip dps to like 130k damage. high mana cost (which sorceress benefits from) and u gain the mana back with lb
specced that way, it should also solve ur AoE clear 😛
anyone wanna help me with lagon quest boss? on US servers
Alright thanks, I will definitly try that out and experiment with other spells to replace static
happy experimenting!!
best part of LE
Is there a way to make Shatter Strike cast Frost Claw & Ice Barrage?
just checked the skill there are nodes within it that let it cast either of those skills
is higher corruption suppose to increase the chances of the mad ladle dropping
yes, rarity also applies to exile mage
ok just double checking. been seeing a lot of people claim that high corruption isn't increasing the chances of it dropping which i feel like is the case.
Def feels like it isn’t
Drop isn’t that rare to begin with and I haven’t seen anything higher than lp1 lol
i have 2, 2 lp but both were dropped prior to empowered
im at 500 corruption and havent seen one in a day
i just got a 3lp exsanguious
does the unique drop chance blessing help with the mage dropping a unique?
Question about subskills of abilities. Laca burst from shield throw, does it get its damage from the parent skill too or strictly calculated from its own scaling. Second question, what of the parent skills applies to subskills (I don’t know any subskills of mage otherwise I would have used that as an example)
Why wouldn’t u ask that in the channel that has shield throw
as a defense mechanic, is static shell good combined with fire runeword which gives 30% more armor against shocked enemies + throne of ambition 20% more armor?
Layer that with lightening aegis too
but my base armor is so low (900)
Becuase the mechanics of the question applies to all classes that have abilities that cast subskills. It isn’t class specific thya was jsut the one that came to mind
hmm
armor % isnt calculated from your current armor, its base armor
so it doesnt matter what your armor is, the armor % will always give the same amount
trying to think if it is worth it
because it is
117% more armor from static shell, 20% more armor from throne of amb, 30% more armor for 10 shock attacks against attackers
now, we only see in the tool tip the increase from throne of amb
base armor ?
Wolfsgorawr build is insane
even without Frost Claw glass shard single target node, the amount of elemental novas is insane
no mana issue
Thats exactly what my build does
Lol
I posted it here earlier
Also that 117% is a low roll, try to get a better one
And stack int on top to get massive ward
hello, ive got a question about scaling damage for an all fire (rah-rah-rah) runemaster build. i focus on scaling with fire dmg, elemental dot, dot, fire pen, and spell dmg right? do fire and spell dmg scale both the hit and ignite? or does only fire scale both? and i focus more on dots than spell damage since i want ignite to do a lot of the work?
if you want ignites and DoT to be your primary damage then you ignore spell damage fire pen is still good as that affects Dots you also avoid flat damage spell damage and flat damage will only scale your hit damage
nice. was able to slam 27% cooldown recovery on my strands of souls : O
as far as im aware only ele dmg over time and generic dmg over time alog with fire pen will actually scale the DoT damage and if that is to be your primary source you would want to focus on also getting a lot of ignite chance
Does anyone know the teleport cooldown needed to sustain haste? 3.9 seconds isn't consistent, little lower.
ah yeah ignite chance i know about i forgot to mention it 😅 ok so flat damage you mean like +5 spell damage and stuff like that? and only go for percents?
dont haste from most sources generally last 1-3 seconds if its a 3s haste you would need to get that cdr down to 3s or below
yeah so +5 spell damage useless to you % spell damage also useless unless you actually want the initial hit to also be doing a lot of damage
I can get it up to 4 (or more) from arcane ascendence, it's just sustaining it at 4 second refresh from teleport.
oh i see then sorry im not sure how much cdr you would need to get telport down enough
okay i do want the initial hit to do something so some % spell damage wont hurt. makes sense. thanks for the help
well in that case % spell damage means nothing without decent flat damage it will be difficult to focus on both big hit damage and high DoT ticks
im fine with sacrificing spell for dots. but knowing how it works helps
so you will either have to settle for a middle ground and have parts of your build suffer or double down on one or the other
also if DoTs are to be your primary damage then it is worth noting thats DoTs cannot crit so crit chance will only help with your hit dmg
cool cool thank you
Can anybody clear up the interaction of something like Flame Reave and Burden of Knowledge? Flame Reave does not have the spell tag, and Burden of Knowledge reads: Spell Damage: +4 per point Reduce Cast Speed: 6% per point.
I've been operating under the impression that Flame Reave, Firebrand, Surge, all are not cast spells, they are instead melee attacks, so Burden of Knowledge shouldn't improve their damage, correct?
is frostclaw the strongest runemaster build?
correct flame reave is in fact not a spell so does not benifit from those
Okay thanks. I was pretty sure I understood this, but I finally started looking up build guides and they're using Burden of Knowledge passive and I can't figure out why they would.
can someone look at my mage and see how i can make some good improvements? runemaster build
i cant answer that a i dont know the build however if people are using it i would assume there is a reason for them doing so unless they happened to misunderstand the correct tags
is there anthing within the build that does have the Spell tag and would benifit from that node ?
Indeed. So a subsequent question just to confirm; procs of skills that do have the spell tag on them would benefit from Burden of Knowledge, correct? (I guess these are called sub-casts colloquially?)
because while it may not be useful for flame reave they may be using it to help with something else
correct if it has a spell tag then yes Burden will influence them
Right, not that I can see at first glance. The builds in question are

and

Release / 1.0.1
Mage / Spellblade
• Firebrand
• Flame Reave
• Teleport
• Flame Ward
• Enchant Weapon
Boss Killer / Monolith Farmer / Arena / Melee
which should i look at or are they the same which is the one you are following ill look at that one
would lowering the area of effect reduce the damage?
because explosions wouldn't overlap a lot
Ahh I missed the explanation right there, in the maxroll. They're using Arcane Severance to benefit from spell damage. Got it!
I am tired of killing my eyes with this amazing build
ahh there we go i figured there would be an actual reason but was unable to know or explain it myself
No thanks a ton for confirming! I've been avoiding adding spell+ stuff and I'm glad I wasn't wrong to do so.
funnily enough when you first asked i spotted that node but did not notice at first or make the connection lol
well adding flat spell damage is fine as long as you are using that node however % spell is useless
wow my first omnis, and with 1lp
but in reality your probably beter of just going with flat melee dmg
Understood. I haven't been playing with that node so far. I was winging my build until recently. I looked around and saw them taking BoK and wondered why.
They aren't even using flamey Frost Claw or anything.
because its only 1 melee dmg per 4 points of spell dmg therefore flat melee is just better in all cases
Exactly.
but that many pasive points also feel like a waste but i suppose there are probably not many melee passives so i guess it helps lol
i would say fire golem but well necro ha that lol
nooo invoker
yesssssssss I have prevailed over the game https://imgur.com/OqpoymY
roll credits
congrats!
for all the blessing i just need to kill the timeline boss again?
What's up gang I'm rolling a mage alt and was wondering what builds y'all have liked? I've got a flurry markaman rogue and a wraith lord necro in the 90s so can probably gear myself up reasonably quickly
Frost claw builds tend to be the best ones alongside some lb ones, think plasma orb has no problem killing post 1000 corruption but it's just not tanky enough compared to the other two to keep competitive pushing a lot further than that.
Lb?
spark charge lb builds, yeah
Ah cool, I do love me an elctro mage
How's spell blade? Sounds fun but on the surface I feel like I should roll sentinel or blade dancer if I want to do that sort of thing
anyone doing the reign of dragons boss at 290+ corruption? keen to come to the relic if possible
Question, For a Runemaster, The Runic Invocation does the "copied Scrolls" node, actually do anything if all you are using runic invocation for is to cast Reowyn's Doomfrost? I dont see it ever "double casting reowyns Doom frost shield, and dont notice any significant boost to my ward aside from what it normally is, but this guide I was looking at says use it with 4 points... but I dont see a point.
Spell blade is very subpar
Runemaster is straight better then sorc and spellblade by alot
Question, what should I aim to slam onto a 3 LP Mad Alchemist's Ladle considering that I might want to use it on a different class other than Runemage? Like Warlock or something
which make me question how does mage lived before runemaster?
i mean rouge,primalist,acolyte class balanced seems alright since all of the mastery is quite good
but runemaster it just cheating with that ward gen
and frost guard
there nothing else to slam on a ladle other than crit multi and cast speed
then probably spell dmg since you want to use on warlock too
so etiher exalted line of cast speed or crit multi then spell dmg
hey guys, I was told to use empowered monos for exp grinding to lvl 100, what nodes should I focus on please?
Cool. What about the suffixes?
hello are there any experienced runemasters that can help me understand my build?
throw your build in the planner
yea im going off one someone else made because i cant wrap my head around using the builder on my first go
but i dont get why it feels like im doing no damage n consistantly getting 1shotted
My guess is one shots are coming from not maintaining ward
Didn't know about the auto-import... here's my build https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/A218Llzo
That's a strange choice for a belt but I like the armor plus the cast speed

thats the one im trying to duplicate
If you like the lightning blast play style
Look on YouTube for pinching loafs mad lightning build
He explains it extreme well for a new player
oh it a frostbite frost claw
isnt it too late to try and change up the class though?
Do you want lighting blast spark
oh i found how to import 😮
im level 52 atm though is it going to set me back changing up the skills and such?
https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/oP6WpXpQ <--- any suggestions on what I can do to improve my build please?
ok where to i go to ask for help on my game not starting though?
Skills take maybe 30 min to complely relevel
this is a new development
game not starting? try to repair your local files from steam?
Check out the build i mentioned. More than anything you will learn how to play
i did i also used the steam command to go back to default settings and disabled full screen optimization but none of em worked
it keeps saying my resolution is unable to switch
Did you try restarting your pc?
ok ill be back in 5 mins
ok restarting fixed
but why is that build wierd?
ngl i saw trillion dmg n smoothed brained into picking it real quick
i never really got into mmo's so i dont really know how builds even work
🧠
^
Is it weird? Looks alright to me.
yea
i been using it under the assumption that i use mainly frostclaw and use the others to stack cast speed
oic
I run a Glacier sorc as well so I can't comment on runemaster 😦
Spam frostclaw for ward, teleport towards stuff, barrage, repeat.
ok
Stay far away from any build made by that channel
Dudes known for putting out subpar builds with click bait titles across all arpgs 
tysm that is easily the best advice anyone has ever given me in a video game
soz i guess i should look for a dif build?
Looks alright, but probably not a trillion dmg worth of alright 📊
Maxroll does some okay guides if you feel a bit lost.
are there any good ones where ill have 1 of the 3 elements i really like the modular variety that u can use on the runic invocation
1 of each of the 3*
oh yes!!! finally got my Vilatria's Crown, now I can pivot to a Meteor build!
Check out plasma orb builds if u like the idea of using multiple runics
For the most part though, later in the game it’ll be very hard to try and keep up with multiple in the thick of it
Where a simple miss cast could end up with you dying
it doesnt seem like they lean toward the ice skills at all though
That’s why I started using cradle shield instead of a catalyst, gives nice amounts of ward on block :3
Orb or blast is probably converted to ice
oh ok
Because frost > fire > frost is one of the strongest combos for the class
Gives a bunch of dr and ward
I wish there were a single button to refund every passive points
clicking one at a time is annoying af
like I have millions, what's a few k gold gonna matter >_<
ok so i just gotta go down the line of refunding everything
yeah you have to refund from the right hand side usually
unless you have ample points in the lower tiers then you don't need to despec as much
try to respec the passives your build doesn't use, on the right hand side first
At that level you'll find new gear soon enough anyway.
heard that glad i stockpiled gold
I play CoF, gold doesn't mean much to me apart from buying stash tabs lol
or you can follow the spark charge ele nova cult
Stash tabs is life.
100% will crash your game
100% isn’t new player or leveling friendly tho
does meteor fall speed matter for Harbinger of Stars?
I have 2 copies, one has 46% fall speed and 6% chance to proc, the other has 32% fall speed and 9% chance
which one should I use for the meteor build?
50% higher chance to proc imo. If you got the mana to sustain it.
haha, I'll have to figure that out
Whats the deal with crest of unity? Makes my tooltip elemental nova have a dps of about 40-50k.. but when it goes off, it does 1/10th of that damage
it never freezes, doesn't do any of the elemntal stuff .. even though it's supposed to be "tri-elemental"
the tool tip is not accounted for enemy armour
so i respecced the build to what its at for this one and my mana sustain is the worst
you need more mana and mana regen bro
change a skill for a mana generator/no manacost skill until you got the sustain for it.
you need gear with build, usually have to farm up some gear before you pivot over
I hate filling up my screen with animations (frost and nova) but some of ya love it xd
The more clutter the better.
is that passive or a skill stuff?
Runebolt and manastrike are both skills
i cant get runebolt yet tho
then mana strike
Is Flame Ward supposed to be on 17 second cooldown everytime you teleport anywhere, or move to the next zone, seems kind of wack
kinda
seems kind of BS, zoned in and two of those giant tigers almost killed me on HC
mine starts off cd 🤔
ye it pretty painful
but on mono the problem doesnt exist
since mono area transistion doesnt put you on a real loading screen
Flame ward is a panic button/powerboost, it's not supposed to have perma uptime.
it's like you have it as you enter the cave, then when you zone in you don't lol
Dep, any luck on that twisted heart
Pain
got 1 more try before i gotta go farm exalts again
unfortunately the way i wanna run the build doesnt exist without it
so
i either quit or get it lol
frost claw twisted?
I'm also trying to farm twisted. Literally trying to get 1 mad laddle too. Is there a trick to getting it or RNG? Because I've killed over 300 mages and not 1 laddle. It's actually getting on my nerves.
buy on market
ladles is actually good
I went COF
0 gold
since u can use it for the crit multi node
I like to solo.
nah its a scam cuz it dont exist
ive played this game a lot. and killed a lot of mages
lmao
never seen an lp2
lp 2 laddle on market is like 100k gold
Never seen one with no LP

lmao
2 lp on market is cheap
so cheap
bro i buy 0 gold lp2
odds of getting a decent roll on a 2 lp laddle is solid
the stats on the piece is important too
given enough cast speed it's not that important
stats not importent when it 0 gold
well dud
as well as 1 lp twisted
I found 1 2lp ladle after like a week of nolifing and I slammed t7 cast
that why i said stats also determined gold price
They are rare
is like there a reason why a 15m gold red ring exist and a 40m red ring exist even with 0 lp
the rolls
Sucks cause you can also only get laddle from mages and not atleast try from a ascendance rune
red ring is really only for people pushing mega high corruptions
CoF can drop spesific item right?
no
what
red ring with lp is crazy
U have boss drops and u have normal item drops
cof feels underwhelming compared to mg if you want specific gear, sadly.
cof was always a bait
nah
I knew it when streamers were hyping it up
CoF is nice
mg makes the game actually unenjoyable
if your build use too much unique then it your fault for picking CoF
The pretty loot explosions are nice
MG is fine as long as you're trying to play for maximum corruption
tbf is kinda cool
not being able to search by rolls
it actualy a bazard
cof i think only wins out if you literally can no life
we can search for tier roll but not number on roll xd
i dont know why they dont let us search for number
Also starting to think twisted heart of uhkeiros is a myth too.
twisted heart isn't that uncommon
Just my RNG
even 1 lp twisted isn't evne that uncommon
res cap at 75, but per level of area mobs get 1% pen - so do we need 150% once surpassing level 75 areas?
it just farming boss drop as CoF is hell
Wasn't paying attention, seen uhhkerios got exited
Helmet ;-;
Should I farm on regular web or should I keep going with strongest corruption? for a better chance at drops and LP
you definitely have not played enough if u think the heart it self is a myth
the drop is not rare by itself at all
do the corruption as high as you can go without dying
Probably not, killed him 12 times, no heart.
Rare for me ;-;
I'm assuming also COF relics dont drop stuff like hearts and laddles? Just want to be 100% sure
Cause if SOF "random wands" can drop laddles once completed I'm spamming that
12 times at what corruption

Oh like 290 corruption nothing too high
Dont have my build setup right to keep going, keep getting 1 tap by shade from now on
if using dragorath claw to proc lightning blast through frost claw do i need to have lightning blast on my skill bar for it to work?
you don't even need all of that
no
thanks
that's just LB isn't it
you don't need to use stardial/red ring rofl
nor do you absolutely need strand
its claw
nah
spark
it's claw spark
i intended for nova
you don't even need that for nova
only reason to use dial + red ring is to go super high corruption
well that is my goal
i mean if it also use for high corruption then there no reason for me not to use it in low corruption
there is actually
you'll be alot smoother without it
the reason why you use dial is to buff up inbetween packs
just stacking int makes the road alot smoother
and you def don't have to use strands either
Dial is good Nd easy ti get if u spam flame rush or tp
all that is really necessary is laddle/fragment/static shell
what belt should i use then?
lol
i just drop something pretty pog
T7 Minion melee/spell dmg on horned staff
which is also a minion staff
i hope it sell for a decent price lul
so black hole loses it's cold tag when you take binary system - but it's still getting buffed by cold inccreases like passives/ice barrage global/flame ward buff, but barely - is it some weird maths with the skill being both cold and fire or is it bugged rn
in flame ward the extra charge node says "allowing you to use it twice before it goes on cooldown" does it recharge the 2nd charge if i only use 1 charge or do i have to use up both before it would recharge to 2?
Yeah it's a bit badly worded, don't worry, it'll recharge whether you have 1 charge left or not.
thanks, i thought so as sentinel lunge recharges
Can someone explain to me what tri-elemental entail? Does it split the damage to 3 parts or is it just includes it together? Does it mean if I had lightning penetration/shred it affects my "entire" damage. Just trying to figure out how it works (making a tri-ele build)
split into parts and so penetration of a single element will only help penetration of that part of the skill.
okay gotcha, thank you!!
does the tri node do all the elemental damage together? or does it just rotate through them each cast?
also does the cold damage taken for less mana used node on cold ele side still work if you're only using nova through frost claw since it mentions "if you cast nova recently" im not gonna be casting it
Level 97 sorcerer feeling underwhelmed with a semi decently geared fireball/meteor build, slowly grinding through 150ish corruption. Any recommendations on a better build? Don't feel like rerolling yet
ye sorcerer can only do so far
frost claw nova on hit
so the mana reduce still work
yeah that part i knew would but i meant just the extra cold damage taken part
it also said that cast recently and not direct cast
so yes u will still taken bonus dmg
thanks
not direct cast
they will said it clearly when it on cast by other skill and direct cast
i just didnt think it being proc'd by another skill counts it as "cast"
yes, we have established this lol
anyone got a flame reave loot filter?
Is there a way to make fragment of enigma? Combine or ascend item?
Any unique suggestions for a shattering strike spellblade (Other than the basic ward boots+armor and crit helm)?

UPDATED Lightning Runemaster Build Guide by MinMaxRPG
Hello! Any suggestions on what filter i should make to ensure i see items that has the level to frost claw?
uh add a red coloring to frost claw affix?
so that applies to any item that has the affix on it right?
yes
okies tyyy!
why would u want to turn a lightning blast build to fire build?
that a whole different thing
tbh I'm not sure what you are asking here, you just gather a bit of fire damage gear and respec into a fire damage build. You don't, like, gradually change one item after another or one skill at a time, that's useless.
Do people mostly use wands or staffs as a mage? I can't figure out which is better
why do staffs always have melee damage?
depends on the build really, wands are whatever but if you are using a 1h you have the option to run a 6% crit catalyst
well they are melee weapons and can be used say in some spellblade builds
what is the best way to farm idols? i am planning on switching to frost claw build and looking for the mana efficiency idols
and critical strike chance idols
hello mages i found a double t6 incresaed lightning dmg + lightning penetration wand
is this any good
Anyone have any suggestions on scaling "tri-element" nova? Doing a frost claw nova build. Currently thinking of crit and/or cast speed
If you're planning on using the Unity helmet for that i'd suggest don't. As far as i'm aware, that helmet borks the nova skill tree, so that it doesn't apply properly
https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/negative-interactions-with-crest-of-unity-unique/66215/2
so i found a way to make the frost claw ele nova abit cheaper
usually we would want a t6/t7 frost claw on twisted heart
now we can just use a T5 to get 2 point and omni to get an extra point
As far as I'm aware, the only thing it messes up from the tree is that it doesn't count as any of the individual novas, so the Elemental Tranquility node doesn't work. Everything else in the tree works as it should AFAIK.
That said, it does make nova act weird with immutable order
where to farm unstable core?
You can get by without the affix if you run unstable core and 2 mana efficiency idols
You need to give up the auto-target node
It'll leave you with 1 point in the mana efficiency node on the far right
nah
And a 24-mana frost claw
i like the auto target
I mean if you're talking about lowest econ viability
I find that the auto-target is kind of inconsequential anyway
frozen malic is the auto target right?
Not sure about the names, sorry - it's the node in the bottom left that's bundled with the extra casts
ye that the node
i might try the T5 frost claw and omni
seems more budget friendly while still maintaing dmg
What is mana regeneration actually based on? % increased mana regen doesn't really seem to do much
Afaik you just get a small amount that probably scales of your characters base mana reg, it's the same with crit for example. I thought a ring actually could give me 30% more crit when I started playing but no it's like a 30% increase of what you already have.
Ugh. It's based on your base mana regen. Which is base 8/sec. And that base is AFAIK nothing you can increase
oooh so any points into mana regen is basically worthless? 😂 you'd have to spend so many points to get 100% (if that's even possible) and it would still only amount to 16
that's sad
Hey guys, for my first character, just got to Monolith, Is Plasmaorb Runecaster viable or too much for a starter build and maybe should stay with Frostbite Frostclaw?
well everything adds up in the end, if you need to go for mana reg to make the build work then you just have to keep stacking it on all your pieces + talents
Well it's not worthless, as mana costs on skills are static, unless you take specific nodes that increase their costs, it's not like in PoE where the cost goes up as the gem levels. But it is less impactful for sure
you can reach up towards 40 mana per sec if you do that
that seems like a lot of investment... but thanks for telling me it's at least possible 😄
is there a way to queue action for runemaster? cast speed always messing up my invocations
np
wonder can we slam an exalted CoF item to a MG unique
I think I saw something like that was supposed to be a really good build when I checked maxroll
https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/plasma-orb-runemaster-guide apparently supposed to be S- tier build
Yeahh its was i was using, it seems like a hard build to get a hold of though, which is why i thought maybe too much for a starter build.
n0o
Immutable order, but then you get a long cd. And runebolt i think has soemthing as well but i haven't used that
yea for LP items, but the guide even says you don't need them for the build to be good
I run immutable, its not that bad
Same, but it depends on what you wanna evoke. So i just use it for frostguard which is fine as cd is same\less then the duration
Ill either do that, or one of the fast aoe nukes
whats the unique thats +1` to all elemental?
i forgor
Yo is that normal that i didn't get a single twisted heart after 24 kills? Started at 100 corr, now at 300
I guess your heart is just too pure to get the drop
Same like with orian's eye on my main, 140 timelines, not a single drop
Seems rigged af 😭
The thing is i can't play any good build without that twisted heart ffs
Don't think i can go up to 400 corr with my current one
immutable order is awful, i dont only want to use 1 invocation. looked around on reddit seems like alot of people are requesting spell queue
runemaster is clunky without it
Well its a rare drop, but to get 0 after 24 bosses ist just unlucky i guess😂
youre the first person ive seen say " runemaster is clunky "
Y, lvl 9
my invocations keep getting messed up because i either attack too fast or slow with runebolt and the wrong invocation comes out
i cant just hit q-w-e in the specific order and right click to invoke
I even got 10 ladles sitting in my stash a full stash of LP3 but not a single fckn twisted heart hml
Just needs practice mate
I am at 280% cast speed so you can imagine how hard it is to do perfect rota
a spell queue will do wonders for that
get better at casting n order, and managing timings dude?
Aren't there idols to lock your combination?
i dont usually say this, but quite literally a skill issue
bit of practice will do wonders for that
i have alot of dota pratice which is why this is such a pain
this isnt dota...
No they dont work like that, if you cast one more runebolt before invocation your next one will be messed up
where to farm unstable core?
NGL , they ain't good
You don't have crit or cast speed on em
And no t6/7
Low forging,
If you just need the experiment for ward gen, then it's alright,
Keep the health, max it and try to roll a resistance you need with chaos glyph
The top stat is useless for plasma, but I would prioritise your survivability over bit of extra dps by trying to roll cast speed
with runic invocation, using invocations that end with a fire rune, is it best to gear myself to fire pen?
being that runic invocation casts a spell that uses all elements
No, you don't have enough forging
If you make it 3xt5 by a miracle without running out of forging, then you can seal it and try to add something
Why did I use every skill and rune come out energy first? I need ice fire ice
https://ibb.co/4N771kn Do u know where I can find it? 4 days and nothing
u probably have the node that locks the rune gen to the order of your skills on your hotbar
meaning your first skill is electro based
runic invocation itself doesnt count
neither does teleport
u need ice spell, fire spell, ice spell on your hotbar in said order
hey guys, is it a bug that i cant put attunement on relics? ingame it says attunement is a viable prefix for relics
thank you so much for giving me the answer.
yea i dunno. lastepochtools shows you can put it on relic but in game you most definitely cannot add it. very interesting
it even says it ingame if you just look at the attunement shard
all i know, is i was able to smash 52% cast speed on my mad ladle : O
than i would say it's bugged and report it
ok ty, and gratz to your smash
Hey everyone, can I get Boneclamor Barbute by using Rune of Ascendence on Mage Helmets? I haven’t ever seen a “Gladiator Helmet” base helm
Well that is amazing! Thank you!
28 kills in, still no heart 😭
Emperor of corpses, reign of dragons timeline or am i dumb?
Started to farm at 100, now at 312
just rng getting the best of you : \
i usually just utilize idols for maxing resistances as im min maxing gear.
is it just me or is the game unstable af atm
29th kill did it with 1Lp!!!
Finally i can do another timeline besides reign of dragons lol
Time to brick it ig
is it against tos to button macro plasma orb for example?
Issit possible to downgrade from selffound to account found after char creation?
Btw what does "incomplete path" means at echobosses? Does it do anything?
Depends what your talents is, but there is a buff the longer your icewall is up and you walk thru it your next runnic invocation will do a lot more damage
Then its wrong build 😄 its either aegis or dodge armor build. Maybe then teleport stun immuty + lightning spell power and maybe some ward retention + lightning damage
do you have any leech in your build? I think that could help alot
but mostly ward should be reliable unless your retention sucks
I've no idea, but sometimes it can be easy getting some leech with a few points
if the low hp actually is a problem
does any enemy damage hit HP before Ward?
I feel like I take a hit sometimes, look down and see I'm low HP but big ward
Could def be Reactive Ward taking effect before I notice, but figured I'd ask before I assume that Ward is always hit first.
gents, does any1 have a decent (base)filter and (progression) planner for the frost claw runemaster? preferably both cold and lightning versions
how can i make my frostclaw not delete my whole mana ?
i see people can spam it in their builds i have no clue at all how that works
You can get leech from passives, i believe its in the sorcerer tree. You only need 1 point there
increased cooldown recovery speed and weapons with -* spell mana cost, rings of sapphire help a bunch aswell, thats what helped me
this is very helpful, thank you very much
Mana efficency idol for frost claw
are u following a guide?
thanks! totally forgot about idols
the short answer yes, the long answer , if ur not using some external injection program to do it for u like those botters, nobody will care about a button macro
so just started recently, I assume that you're "top tier" when you can rip through monoliths no problem? or is there more ?
i mean , not rocket science but i understand what you mean
caues usually someone dont understand the build and dont know why the build is under performing
that what i ment
i got it - im doing good!
all g
its simple, my build is under performing cos my items simply suck 😂
I'm gonna be real I'm just not feeling it with Sunwreath. Been using it for a week and I don't get it. The range is so bad, and enemes rarely surround me from the back, unless I set it up on purpose.
Not sure why people love it so much for Flame Reave
they look good, but its so far from the ideal it hurts
is there any guide where some item type drops? following maxroll frostclaw build and so far dropped zero chest armor or rings listed in that guide. (base items)
today i got decent upgrade for my offhand tho, so kinda happy
last epoch tools
just search the item name
and below every item is also written from what/where they are dropping
also if its a common drop or rare , or a unicorn, etc
You can go maxroll.gg and then database and look for the item there. You see drop chances in echo rewards and ascendance chances
something like Red Ring of Atlaria is a unicorn that doesnt exist
only if u find a gnome and he points u to the end of a rainbow
go merchant guild and buy ?
age of winter, extremely rare drop, 2% chance to drop
i play CoF cos MG is just buy everything and GG the game without actually playing the game
I got one out of 600 runes
well you still need to play for favor and gold so I would disagree with that but to each their own
Not true lol
and rank
yours isnt working out
only that i have the satisfaction of actually getting it
only difference
but you enjoy the game so all good !
i have a char specifically made to look at market from time to time
you can actullay farm red ring in CoF
that if you stack like 20+ ring prophecies
and each one drop like 5
if you have a build that you need specifically and they aren't on the market just likely means your build is very likely bad and all the items are filtered out of the MG filter lol
Lmfao all items are on market
dw, i know how to target farm , currently looking for 2lp+ snowdrifts
Or farm rune of ascendance
Ice sceptre T7 mana reduce T7 freeze rate T5 cast speed T5 stun/chill
find me one
and ill buy it
Lel i dropped 2 3lp as merchant
for 500mil
Ofc there is
ah, thanks!
I found mage regalia and its not showing drop. Does it mean its general drop and I didnt get single one since I started monoliths? 😄
Mage regalia is a normal mage chest yea? Those can drop everywhere
Unless you mean fundamental criterion
yeah, I am following this guide https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/frost-claw-runemaster-guide#passives-header and trying to drop base items, but I dropped 1 helmet, 0 chest armor and 0 rings and offhands so far since I started monoliths and I am lvl 73 already
Yea i mean its kinda hard to target farm such items
there is nonexalted version at starting gear
I didnt get none at all, which seems weird
if you dont see it then the gear dont have the stats that the build wants
Nah its just hard to get mate
it simple
maybe maxroll lootfilter are screwing with me?
Even as cof hard to get these affixes with a certain subtye of body armoir
yeah I mean base items, I am not talking about affixes unfornatelly.
If the loot filter is set to show only this body armour with these affixes and then maybe even each individual affix with t5 or higher then you can farm a month and not see it
ah yeah, that could be it
You should maybe adjust it, like make a filter for any mage body armour, with these 4 affixes and show when it has atleast 1 of those affixes when it has t6 or higher
following a variation of and destroying all at 83
if it maxroll than it just either frostbite frostclaw or frost claw
it showing other base items aswell, so I dont strictly need these base items?
in a sense yes you dont need to stricly following it
you can use other gear
but those good base gear usually is work well for your build
alright, will try look for it. I am too used to buy all items from poee haha
agreed - some of the gear you can make can blow out the pieces they recommnend
https://youtu.be/zIeHXY9LHKI?si=NStItmFhWJxVVhYb
Anyone tried this build?
What does it say on advanced options
in loot filter?
Yea
Then put it to 1
You will see more drops
And obviously if you kill alot offscreen you will miss plenty of loot, there is a mod tho that enables marks on minimap when something drops
wait, there is strict one aswell, what that mean 😄
there is chest armor and chest armor strict
Strict one means, if its above that other rule, it will recolor if its a „perfect“ item
So I just started playing mage, I took several passives that increase my crit chance but my character stats say my crit chance is 7%. I did the math and I should be getting at least 47% from my passives alone. Anyone know why this is?
Skill node runic invocation and passives
It doesnt calculate in most of skill tree and passives, it doesnt show on your sheet
so it like this
example
100% increased crit chance
5% base
=10% crit
all g?
I see, so it's multiplicative not additive
Thanks!
So the sheet is correct? Because the other guy said it doesn't calculate passives
it does
the one that isnt shown is the indiviaul crit rate of ability
since some ability give them extra crit rate
the crit on your sheet is the crit of all of your ability
it sometimes doesn't LOOK like it calculates passives because there's hidden decimals
at least i feel like there is lol
does snapfreeze offer any kind of buffs ?
I believe you can get armor when it’s on cooldown and steal cold resistance from things @limpid drum
if you're speccing into snapfreeze, it's probably a waste
better buffs and dmg to be found on other skills
What’s the point of Volley of Glass in the Frost Claw tree? It staggered the hits instead of burst so the damage is the same but you get more on-hit effects?
yea i kinda am confused on how to utilize my frostclaw build
i dont even know which skills i should go with
thinking of frostclaw, ruinic, flame ward, LB, flame rush
I think I get it. Instead of a burst of AoE at the target, it does multiple hits of single target with each hit doing the same amount of damage that the AoE would have done?
It's for single target
If you already have aoe taken care of via spark charge or novas you can take it if your mana sustains
maxroll's builds are fine for leveling but they fall of hard after that
so what's the best build that uses a lot of invocations?
so is there a decent estimate of how much ward one should be able to generate by level 50?
Hey guys n gals
Is it posible to get mage teleport spell cooldown to 0 or 1?
Fireball+metor for sorc. Is a build that can do 2-400 corruption?
if runemaster then around 2k
Thanks. I think I'll keep it on then. Just trying to optimize. The text isn't clear. It's like each projectile does 100% damage and they all go to the target in one big burst for 500%, but with the passive, the hits stagger instead of hitting at the same time so you still get 500% but over time. But I guess people are saying that the burst totals 100% and when you split it into 5, each projectile retains the damage but it's now single target instead. It's that right?
Theoritcally possible to get it down to 0.5 sec
With recovery speed, jungle queen chaps with traversal cd reduction when drinking potion experimental affix

I’m interested
I noticed that I’m getting like 800 at level 20 or so
Rm is very fun
You can get over 20k with a low life build at end game. Very tanky as long as you’re attacking
Since most of ward is generated from the first part of the rm tree could spellblade top that if you take a few rm talents on top of it?
spellblade could sadly never top rm ward gen i think
also invest in rm for ward gen only as spellblade seems kinda bad
Nah I wanted frostwall for an experimental build. I already have a nice rm, I wanted a sb for something different
Getting bored of hydra. Anyone got a nutty lightning build for solo high corruption for me?
spark charges are pretty meta
bigdaddys mana stacking spark charge using mana strike looked pretty promising so am rolling it now
My game has crashed a few times in the last few days and each time my cooldowns are going up....anyone know of any bugs? No gear change, no skill change, nothing. But one cooldown went from 4.2 to 5 seconds standing in end of time.
I’m at 700 corruption with spark charge with little sign of slowing down. Just haven’t spent the time pushing
Guess I’m rerolling spark charge thanks

That's my actual build currently
in the black hole tree, does the singularity node conflict with binary system ?
as in, if i have singularity, will the binary system node work as intended ?
what else are you gonna invest the points in, spellblade? lol
have you even looked at the tree, it barely has anything worthwhile beyond like 50 points
Has anyone here tried using the Sacrificial Embrace gloves with 100% crit mana strikes to pump out giga-void black holes? Probably alongside a mad alch since the gloves give a ton of flat dmg?
Why are you speccing mana storm instead of the infinite stacking increased spell dmg node in mana strike? Are you not losing immense dmg this way?
And you're also losing minimal attack speed, also when it's just minmaxing
That’s a good point, I’ll need to test it against bosses. My thought was for bossing the added damage from Mana Arc might be better. I have no issues with mobs at the moment.
- not taking the double/quadruple node in lightning blast
I play kinda the same build, just curious
Best way to farm "frostbite shackles"? i'm actually lv 90 and corruption 110, COF.
The attack speed loss can be made up by the other attack speed node so I’m not worried
Yeah, it's really minor
Which node are you referring to in LB?
Oh yeah. Direct cast
Like damn, the maxroll guide gets worse and worse the longer i play 😂
Why does early mage leveling feel freaking bad. ><
I used that as a foundation but pivoted
every other start feels smoothish with at least one skill but mage just feels bleh
And your lower right points in frost claw will do nothing at all, since i can't see you using barrage
It actually does a lot
Same, took the stats and changed quite everything else
The point of it isn’t damage, but on hit effects such as armor shred on hit
It proccs often with 15% only?
Plus as a bonus, it could proc spark charge from fragment
Is it generally faster to full clear echoes for stability or is it faster to just rush them?
rush
Ahh i see
Yes, it’s not 100% uptime but it comes up within a couple of seconds most of the time. Sometimes it feels endless though
ty
I'm also just kinda struggling at bosses so far, echos are a joke with this build
@stiff crown how high's your unbuffed sparkcharge dmg in tooltip?
I can get over 700 armor shred stacks at the moment
typically you still end up with 30-50% stability form just rushing unless you get a really short echo. But on the other end sometimes you end up full from a long echo
I’m not sure. I’m not at home for a few hours
Another question - is there a decent way for Enchant Weapon to have 100% uptime? I feel like stacking enough cooldown recovery would hinder my damage greatly
So if I got like 70% through I should probably just finish it?
Also maybe your mana strike node is worth, since it also should apply spark charges, hmm 🤔
Yeah running around in an echo looking for stability is not worth
About 55-60% cdr will do it
That was my thought initially, but I think the damage just gets added to mana strike so it counts as 1 hit? Not sure
Unless you are looking for the exiled mage or something
I think it's a cast itself but not sure
Like I don’t see a second set of numbers, but maybe I’m just blind
What do people usually stack cdr on?
Cheers
Man i can't difference those numbers there are like a trillion numbers if you hit a single time 😂
I think belt and boots. There's also a rm node which gives you cdr per int
Ancient inscriptions i think
So for Rune Sap, the passive you suggested, I think I can get about 6 hits in writing 4 seconds. So single target would give me 72% additive damage on bosses. I’ll have to test if that’ll be more than what I currently have
@stiff crown and btw your gear is completly insane 😂 i guess you're MG?
Ah christ it trequires 38 points in the tree though D:
How many points do we have in total?
Yeah, MG is life but looking at the Bazaar 24/7 is draining. lol
Err... 115?
It’s like, I want to play the game, but also what if there are good deals. Rofl
I counted 113
Damn, and 38 of those are supposed to go to RM, another 20 to base tree, so 55 in total for my spellblade tree?
That sucks
Well, most got 50+ in RM
you have too much crit chance, could have higher crit multi, also super low cast speed
Why o_o
Ohh damn you're spellblade? My condolences
Mana strike is a melee lol
Does Mana spent gained as X count for channeling skills like Disintegrate?
Does Spell damage leech also works on DOT spells?
Spellblade is fun, even if not optimal
he has 98% spell crit, so less reason to have that much
Cast speed does 0,0 for this build
You procc frost claw trrough mana strike and therefore proccing lightning blast off frost claw
I’m planning to get rid of the crit rings once I get a LP4 Fragment to fix my res. But until then, I’m kinda stuck.
I also don’t use cast speed
cast speed is broken
"Once I get a LP4 fragment" 
I got about 85% critchance an just see yelloe numbers
This dude doesn't understand that cast speed is not interfering with mana strike, which is the only thing he uses 🤦🏻♂️
why use ice barrage when you can use the
HOLY
I HAVE CRACKED THE CODE
@winter crow not everyone in here plays a ladle + frostclaw lolz
frost claw 0 MANA COST with all the multi cast NODES
I didnt know mana strike didnt use cast speed, Ive never used that as main dps
when you use it as melee
It’s not as impossible as you think, lol. It’s 0% reroll with 30 LP level
it never costs mana
all other rune master builds benefit from cast speed a ton
It's just for proccing, dmg comes from spark charges
I mean, just find it funny because it's definitively a chase item
same as fc...
more cast speed = more procs
cuz more hits
But yeah i gotta admit that it's strange that mana strike is a melee tag even if specced into range
I’ll be sure to hit you up if I get it 🐸
👍 🤞
it rly should change it to a spell tag
Cast speed still won't make a melee attack faster 😅
you need to remove the ice barrage nodes and reduce the 3/3 mana cost to 1/3 since frost claw doesn't cost mana to cast when it is used as melee
and invest them in the multiple cast part
I don’t understand your comment, lol
Frost claw doesn't cost mana when casted as melee
Frost claw can't be a melee, huh?
frost claw cannot be melee, no
frost claw? Melee? What?
Still won't be melee no matter what u specc in FC
Ppl need to start reading the tags
and mana strike
bruh
Mana strike is a melee, frost claw no
You’re saying if I cast through Macau, it’s free?
People just find a guiode and build blindly. They don't read tags.
yes
omg the slam succedeed lets gooo, risked 15m on a perfect slam https://gyazo.com/fa5f6736a56d38519504ca3327ef26cf
if that failed, it wouldve been painfull
Wdym bruh, you talk peak BS with FC being a melee 🤦🏻♂️
No
I meant
that if u use a melee skill such as mana strike
with the Macau frost claw node that triggers when used with a melee attack
I don't care what u mean, you said FC is a melee
Weird, I guess some nodes specifically say that it costs mana. This one doesn’t. I’ll mess with it, but the mana regain proc is nice since I use barrage and mana% nodes in Mana Strike
Even when procced from dragorath's claw STILL WON'T MAKE IT MELEE
oh yeah. the one procced from claw is considered a cast 100% lol
otherwise you'd just fkn chain em
That's why i said read the tags lmao
Does Mana spent gained as X count for channeling skills like Disintegrate?
Does Spell damage leech also works on DOT spells?
Any person can answer this? The game really doesn't make it clear IMO
Y and since when are melee attacks casted? Right, never

What are we even talking about here? lol
FC is never melee from what I understand
Right
Ok, lol
not sure about the mana spen part but im pretty sure that the only way DoTs can leech i via generic leech not a specific type of leech not sure is name but one of the leeches cover all damage types inculding DoTs
Back then, Dr3ad made a build using mana strike to trigger Frost Claw and thus lightning chain
Melee attacks can trigger Frost Claw however if you spec into it.
But now, the multiple casting frost claws builds are out there
@keen bough u skipped school dude? 😂😂
what I forgot to read personally was that the multiple casting nodes only affect if you directly cast it
Your reading comprhension sucks my guy. This does not say "frost claw is melee"
I literally linked you the sentence, learn to read or stfu pls
It's getting laughable
Gatito meant it costs no mana when you use the melee node to auto cast it
but you just keep doubling down lol
What do i care what he meant, i can't read his thoughts sherlock
Ooof, I really hope the devs actually revamp/reword DOT abilities and spell in the future so it doesn't take random guesses to make it work
