lol
in my dream I would have been able to be at like negatrive mana all the time but doesn't work like that
with mana strike
t6 int t6 Movespeed boots. worth trying to slam into 2lp telfun or wait for a 2lp blood of the exile?
the mana goes away really fast, I can up the uptime with more mana on mana strike, still I won't be able to get out of mana benefit
sad
ic
hi i got 3 lp reowyn's fortress any build ideas?
you could burn mana with mana storm
wait I messedf up maybe it won't work with azzural fury
okay i'm lost
don't understand
thought you tested it
yeah but I just reroled it
and didn't put point into spell dmg/melee dmg thingy
...
so
it's a bit weird
my dmg go up
okay I get it now
I had the boots that chilled me and enchant weapon activing automatically
so it was messing up my things
lol
ye
oh I know, I need lot of attack speed
with that, azzurel furry should last way longer
pog
oh ye keep in mind that if you wanna do any trigger shenanigans from frostclaw you are gonna need positive mana
it is okay I guess, the fury doesn't work once i'm out of mana so it was not working
anyway
so no triggering frostclaw to trigger ele nova/ice barrage
oh ic
i see
lol
for now all i'm thinking is mana strike + frostclaw and azzural's fury
the rest I need to figure out
lol
More freeze! more freeze!
https://paste.pics/QLOSK
coool item :p
I don'(t have something as good as this
for now
I sold an idol that is worth 15 million gold but sold it 9.5 million I'm so dumb
Didn't check twice
omg, my ring actually sold for double price XD
ppl really pay double just for 2% resistances and +1 all atributes
Were did you farm that none existing ring? ๐
+2 all res is really +14 res xD
2.2k corr
xD
How many hrs have ya wasted?
around 500

ima try another +2 heart slam with the money from the ring xd
if it goes good if it doesnt its free money I got anyways
this
this is just to min/max a bit more, I dont need 2 extra fc levels but spell dmg and having a bit more dmg in fc would be nice
i tried the build with LB & Nova
but felt like i was doing less dmg
than just ladle & nova
ye
im gonna put the dagger on my Lb sorc build
will be perfect for it lol
imma try your build out again
i forgot about the runic and was using frostwall to move around
i got foot of the mountain boots with movespeed so im not as fast lmao
oh thats bad
Dang never thought of frost wall. I'm dropping my flame ward for that 6 second haste and frenzy buff
frostwall isnt there for the haste and frenzy thats just an extra
frostwall is there cuz 14% increased dmg and it casts runebolt
runebolt gives 21% dmg
i'll eventually get blood
yup, but I don't play runebolt. I'm just looking for a flame ward replacement since it feels so useless in a freeze build
will be a min tho lmao
anyone doin julra? im outta keys and need to slam
anyone have a good build guide for nova claw?
https://gyazo.com/cec7ecd146c2b7691376792a14bb92f0 this may look like rip
but its actually a W
I dont need +2fc levels and necro resis allows me to free some idol slots
so a bit more min/max
today's update didn't fix the shock freeze bug, sad.
Why that belt Pip?
anyone done a flame reave mage where you dont stack firebrand? you just cast flame reave?
belt is there for armour so I can have an easier time killing orobyss
strand of souls is better for mapping
also I need the cold resist cuz upgraded gloves to t7 armor
yeah, rn im mostly playing the bazaar rn
who had best frost claw runemaster guide? (end-game)
theres no "best"
some builds are better for certain things
my build is a good all-arounder, ik some builds that do more dmg than mine like killing t4 julra in 5 sec, but their ward is thrash so they can't survive in my corr
also depends on what playstyle you like
well i want tanky RM who can survise like ~3k corr
I can assure you my build can, but doing orobyss past 2k is hard
id say with any runemaster build

maybe tomorrow i'll try a 2lp twisted slam
IF YOU WANNA JAM
see if we can get int and fc
what runic invocation combo are u channeling with this build?
the only good one
frostguard
idk ive failed 2 2lp julras and 2 2lp hearts in 2 days now
slams kinda troll atm
also failed a red ring slam last week
๐ฆ
didja see the pic?
yeah, looks like thrash XD
lol I was trying to figure out for the longest time why my runes changed and I didnt have it set up properly with immutable order
Finally got red ring!!! With 1lp as well
๐
just figured it out after all day
holy grats
I am not blowing t7 anything on an lp2.
Got 2 tries to slam int on it. Prayage
gl

Tyty
Thanks for the reply ๐
Gonna need to slam int on helm tho too I think to get the bonus effect from 180 total attributes
Prophecy and thx
nice
ima try another 2lp julra slam just because xd
lmao
https://gyazo.com/804282975f1af4545f0adcbdca02064d another brick xD
Could be worse ๐
rip
I just lost like 200m today, time to log off xd
yeah actually its usable
ye phys res and int aint bad at all tbh
cuz I can add armor idols instead of my phys res
ye
but it has a low roll spell dmg
see a plus
thats what triggers me
lmao
https://gyazo.com/1f82c74167a906e83a12b3cae8a297a4 this one was the godly one
max int and crit chance exalted
with high roll spell dmg
but bricked too ๐ญ
๐ฌ
What is best way level RM to around.. 80? just use maxroll levelling guide?
oh I thought you were endgame level, for starters I recommend bootynoodle fireclaw build on yt
yeah just starting levelling RM
dont try my build, scales a ton but its very bad at low investment
the fireclaw one from yt its actually good for its investment
He is still tweaking it even lol
The one before that
Thats a new tweak to the original
Yes the 2nd one
Can watch both. Just start with the old
ok thats old one is cheap af
its rly can push high corruption with items like calamity? O.o
If he did it, itโs possible. Skill would play a factor though
fixed idols and moved some things with the new stuff https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/A83gj3ko

I wont touch it for a while now
but noodle still not helps how to level that build lol ๐ probably just using maxrolls guide?
What lvl are you?
1
I would follow maxroll till the glacier dmg starts falling off. Then go into frost claw
Yeah sounds good
Fireball>glacier>fc
wonder what a 1lp renigma is nowadays on mg
atleaast u can equip most of "end-game" gear like on lv10 lol
Prob 20m
ocearon gives the same dmg as a 72% spell dmg stardial
stardial triples your slammed stats.
x2
soooo
only for 4 secs
thats taking 16 int slammed
on both rings
ocearon gives 10% dmg boost
16x3 homie
yeah 2 dps stats on julra is a better than ocearon
but 1lp, its the same thing
but ocearon you dont care about rolls
julra if its not maxed roll you lose dmg vs ocearon
test it yourself, get a t7 int ocearon and t7 int julra, test the dmg and kill times
I already spent too much hours doing it
Homie if im runnin julras its gonna be 2lp slammed minimum
just dropped twisted heart but its 1LP ๐ฆ
still a good cunk of gold
Thats still really good
Is LEtools down?
Nm
is red ring even worth using if you don't slam int?
im CoF
@warped crowtried again, this time it doesn't work ๐ญ forget it, azzural fury doesn't boost it i think, i'm sure nowx
I mean kinda but I wouldn't be able to hit 180 breakpoint yet
missing int on helm and chest
ok thought so
hopefully slam #2 hits int
my julra ring got lucky and hit 1/4 int
do you guys ever have problems with another key function not working because you held down fc?
it keeps getting me killed when I go to swap timezones in julra fight and I hit D and nothing happens. Is my only idea on why it doesn't work
Im guessing some skills wont trigger during fc spam. Might just be cause im on controller though. I have to pause for runic invocation. But flame ward works ๐คทโโ๏ธ
It's because flame ward cast animation can be cancelled instantly
As for Runic Invocation, it cannot
You just have to pause for a brief moment for it to cast
As for the Julra swap, you can't cancel frostclaw animation with it because it's not a skill, it's rather a game mechanic,
ah ok ty
Ngl levelling RM is pretty fast
it does count as using a skill for some purposes
the julra warp
guessing the other ones do too
W POG hit int on the red ring slam
Wow that word is really censored?

Anyway GG RNGesus blessing you
I finally got 2LP snowdrifts duped y'day, t7 speed slam failed miserably, the T6 landed with +108 armor, big improvement (also the shoes had all around better rolls)
Was hoping for int or recovery speed but honestly, with armor giving me 68% extra Armor, it's a pretty big defense boost, went from 42 mitigation to 48
Now I'm off to look for 2LP shackles or twisted heart I guess, and some good ring I can try to slam into the 2LP stardial I got
wait what word is censored?
gz and gl with the hunt
Am not gonna try to explain but it follows the word suck, but it's not a swear word
ah ok
I mean, Kek, 2LP both 1% chance, aaand it's a boss specific drop and both are rare boss drops
Time to go 5k corruption without seeing single one
oof Hopefully you get it before then
when levelling RM, should I start using frost claw right when i get cold to fire node? (going to use noodles ignite FC RM)
Y'all think it's worth to slam a 2lp heart with a +2 rc rank and T5 int/T5 cast speed
T7 int and +2 fc imo
Assuming youre doing the frostclaw spark charge build
def not imo
its really hard to justify that cuz the value of 2lp hard is just way too high
im so glad that someone actually understands my logic behind >>stardial
i do think that it can be good if youre trying to really really do a huge burst skill like maybe oldskool static orb
but even in its own form, rm's fc nova still classified as ailment inflict
That's my thought as well
from what ive seen,
I have a +3 relic but the other rolls are trash
as fc build u gotta think about what is the make or break with that build
like what are the non negotiables
+3 fc? then u can forgo the int
the int is whatever, like what matters is that hte build is playable now
later on when u can afford it then u can justify it
yeah I am playing it now with 23 ranks in fc and doing fine but could be so much better with the extra ranks
for sure
what id say abotu this is that u should think about how much ward do u really need to stay alive
and balance it between offense and defense
i like to be very precise wtih this to the point where i only go for more defense if i start dying
cuz to me thats when value of stats actually appear
that's a great way to look at it tbh
thats just me
I mean I struggle a bit with T4 Julra but other than that so far I'm doing pretty good tbh
like to me buying stats that u dont use is dog
would u be down to like screenshare wtih me
so i can show u how i do t4 julra
t4 julra = dont stand in the bad or just facetank the dmg with the rate you gain ward ๐
yeah pretty much.
I've gotten ok ish at it
maybe later today? Am gonna finish this run on dragon timeline and prob hop off and hit the gym
checklists is like if you get the void pool or not
if you do, youre doing it wrong
the key to julra is actually stacking cdr
when she starts throwing static orb, she throws it 3x and each time gets bigger and more damage
u can take the first one i think, second and third does more damage. third one can one shot
the least damage she does to me is the ice blast
ok then yeah I don't quite understand all the mechanics just yet as she still does the void puddle sometimes
Frost claw feels kinda clunky on early, but i Bet it getting better when levelling up
or like, the last second pretty much
then switch back straight away
the void pool will only appear if you dont switch back right after you do the first time
you need to switch back immediately
or at least after the explosion happens
the second time she counts, this is usually when the 3 pillars already spawn to cast cross lightning
you want to switch as soon as she counts because you 'd want to kill those pillars
asap
oh ok that makes sense now then
cause I was like sometimes she follows me others she dont
yea
you never want her to follow you
no matter what
adn u can also control where she stands
with julra u want to be right next to her
oh?
yea cuz u can control where the positioning is
u know the rotating laser
u can manipulate where she stands
so that ure always in that gap
ah ok that makes sense thanks a bunch
for runemaster builds with twisted heart, would increased life help at all or is it not that important?
whats top runemaster build right now?
bootynoodles dragoraths dagger build feels great
other stats better, mana reg/ress
wouldnt it be more ward though? (via twisted heart) or is it irrelevant
u gain so much ward from other skills, u dont need hp pool
better to look into armor/dr than hp
i have 1k hp and can raise 40k ward on bosses
oooooh ok ok tyvm!
like radart said, armor, chance to reduce crits are way usefull
is hydrahedron still relevant or should I look for other stuff? kinda liked the spawn turret pew pew
think plasma orbs or frostclaw stuff is better
anyone here doing elemental frost claw build? i have to ask something
anyone using crest of unity + 2 lighting crit idols?
honestly feels much better compared to gaze
My runemaster just got into monoliths. Which build is easiest to start with? CoC Lightning blast, lightning claw + nova, or fire claw + static orb?
if a guide was last updated on march 4 2024 is it still relevant?
Generally speaking, yes, especially mage. Don't think we got something bugfixed that made power drop so it sucks.
Is Glacier or Frost Claw better build for high monos?
Alone, without more detail into how those skills are used in a build, i can't give a good answer, but a general answer is most likely Frost Claw.
Sure, appreciate it's a vague question ๐
I've seen the Glacier build on maxroll for example but then a lot of FC builds using Dragorath's Claw etc, but all slightly different. Was just trying to figure out which direction to head in with my gear hunting!
If you want the most potential, it does seem that Frostclaw is the way to go. As for skill usage and fun i just like Glacier big chunky damage, buuuut it's gonna have a hard time to compete with frostclaw meta (various types)
Yeah I've been using Glacier so far and it seems good but a little slow with the three chunks of damage; wasn't sure if other builds were significantly stronger to the point it's advised/"required" to use a meta build
Thanks for the insight ๐
yeah thats what i following
Hey, does anyone know a good build thats still good at 1500+ corruption? i've been struggling at 500 and it seems like lots of guides are outdated
I just review all the mage specific uniques
lots of stuff for rune masters, not so much for the others
Elemental Nova tho
I wonder if there's a way to make it viable
sorcerer doesn't seems to be the right choice for it
ele nova have the spark charge node
spark charge deal alot of dmg when pair with enigma
ty
with crest of unity, it means elem nova gets all 3 elemental tags, correct ?
as in, it triggers all 3 of the dragon mage passive
Iโm playing Allieโs spark charge cast on crit lightning blast runemaster that everyone says is bad.
Is there something i can switch too that isnโt super gear dependent while i wait for +3/4 frost claw relics to drop? Iโm CoF only right now
no, it does not get any new elemental tags beyond the ones it already has. Its damage becomes tri-elemental, not its tags.
Ultimately want to play NovaClaw but needs some gear
it continues to alternate between all the varieties of nova you've specced into. Each one has only one of the element tags, but they all deal tri-elemental damage.
Why does the nova+claw build run Blood of the Exile?
so I understand what's you're saying but that's such a disapointement
it doesn't mean anything in terms of gameplay
it does cold damage without having the cold tag ? that's bull.
thanks for the help, I guess ima try to find something else
yeah, I spent so long trying to figure it out. Eventually asked about in the ask the devs channel, and got a clear answer: "increased cold damage" means actual damage. "with a cold spell" means tags. It's possible for a spell to deal damage, but not have the tag. For example, if you have a wand that gives you +void spell damage.
so crest of unity changes the flat damage for every nova, but otherwise leaves them unchanged.
makes no sense to me
okay
that makes me sad
got another one
I think you might have answered it already, but when in doubts all tht
when using crest of unity, despit being tri-elemental, elem nova still rotates the elem tags right ?
yes
ty
so the frost cascade that triggers on ice nova continues to trigger on ice nova
so that might still be good with dragon mage
especially if procced very often with frozen claw
someone tested it, and found that when frost cascade triggers, the original nova is tri-elemental, but all the other ones that chain off of it are regular ice novas ๐คฃ
uh ?
give it a try
so it doesn't cycle after all ?
it does
i'm not following
ice nova is the cold version of elemental nova
ok
in the ice nova side of the tree, there's a node that causes ice nova to trigger more ice novas, chaining off every enemy, and filling the screen with explosions
you know the node I mean?
Freezing Cascade. When that triggers with crest of unity, the original frost nova is tri-elemental. You see it explode with all three colors at once, like it does before you spec it.
yes, it says it creates a cascade of freezing novas
so I'm not suprised it doesn't cycle in that particular case
and crest of unity doesn't change them
yes
they'll all look the same, tri-elemental, but their individual effects will trigger on their turn
so dragon mage will still procc 100% of the time for all elements if elem nova is procced often enough
I'll dig this way
since this is a really complex interaction, if you keep digging, I'd love to hear about what you learn.
the game doesn't make sense so i'm not sure I'll learn much but will do
when in doubt, always try to get experimental proof
for novafrost claw build to proc the reowyn's frostguard you need Heo-Rah-Heo right? Why everytime i try to use the ability that the build told me to do, i get instead Gon-Heo-Heo?
Does the shred cold resistance in "the age of winter" make a big difference? is it important to get?
Assuming i'm doing a fast hitting cold build.
what is making the flame ward not proccing rah rune
Unless you're getting your elemental shred elsewhere, i'd say yes.
I'm not, thanks. I also struggle with my resistances atm though..
how tf yall getting these LP twisted hearts with +3/4 Frost Claw, i can't get this crap to drop period, forget with LP good lawd
@rocky gale just play for 20 hours with 1k+ corruption
So much wasted suffixes ๐
has anyone tried the maxroll frostbite frost claw runemaster build? perma cc seems good, just wonder how is the damage compare to lightning frost claw build
@inner tinsel damage is better
Yeah, cc doesn't matter if u can kill everything faster
@next lance good luck killing everything faster at 5k corr
not going to push that high lol, im at 1200c with lightning frost claw build, i can do it pretty much effortlessly, just some bosses give me trouble
I think that's typical with most builds. Easy echoing, hard bossing
Unless it's a build that can just one shot a boss or something
thats why i asked about damage of that frostbite build, if damage isnt that behind then perma freeze bosses seems op
Try it and let us know. Does seem OP in theory
still farming the weapon lol pretty hard to find, sucks to be in cof i guess
trying to put together a sorc elem nova. Could smeone give me a feedback on the concept ?

I'm not sure about crest of unity. The more I look at it, the less I understand how to use it.
Does Oceareon have any benefit to a frostclaw build?
@inner tinsel just abuse snap freeze to perma freeze any boss on any rm build
You don't need too
Which part is confusing about crest of unity may i ask?
the tri-elemental part I don't fully understand
I though it was about tagging elemental nova with all elem tags, but this isn't it
apparently it doesn't specifics nova nodes
and I don't think it adds all the elemental nova damages either
so idk what to make of it
Have u tried it?
I haven't this is purely theoricraft at this point
what do you think about all that ?
Itโs just more damage if you got shock so yes
If you can slam a T7 in it
I havent played much with it but what i should understand is that by default elemental nova will cycle its damage type from each element
With Crest of Unity, the damage should be like 3x per cast instead, dealing lightning fire and cold at the same time
At least theorywise
I see so it's indeed interesting
I managed to get two of them
Cuz if u look at element nova from LE tools, it does base damage of 6 lightning, 6 cold, 6 fire
Swap faction ๐
anyone notice there tier 6 frost claw on sale that has same exact stat 100%, like there 5 of them, frost claw exalted selling 30m each, are there dupe bug?
Which would mean each cast does 6 damage, if it becomes tri-elemental, it deals all the damage at the same time 18 damage in one cast
like literally all their stat the same, from top to bottom, how i post screenshoot here
That also means that shred wouldnt help too much either, cuz you'd only benefit a little from it, but thats why there's the elemental penetration portion of crest of unity
its not rune of creation, cause there 5 of them, and there some forging potential, so 100% dupe bug?
as well as the infernal prism node
Should I go for Fundamental Criterion with +2 Runic Invocation that I slammed fire pen on or +3 runic invo? For hydra build: https://i.imgur.com/GsjLjnM.png
ok this is dumb I'm sorry. My english is weak.
Chance to cast Elemental Nova when Hit -> when i'm hitted or when I hit stuff ?
Probs when u are hit
When you hit somethin it says "on hit" and when you are hit it says "when hit"
ty
Tell me how it goes with the build, i did try Ele nova RM, it was fun but boss damage felt slow for my liking. Love the screenwide clear tho
I'm still unsure if I'll try
but I'll let you know
if you look at the mockup, it's possible to get close to 100% crit and 500% crit mult
that's about 50k damage per nova
it's from the calculator so I guess it doesn't account for monsters damage reductions and all that
and I need to test a few things
like
does unstable core works on triggered nova
sadly no
Oh direct cast, yes
I need to work on my reading skill before trying to theorycraft stuff
Is elemental nova any fun? I got the helm the makes it all elements, was gonna give it a try soon
fun probably, efficient that's more difficult to say
Its alright, it'll improve overtime, no need to rush it
It looks fun, but i feel my eyes would be blinded after some time.
that's from all the fun
Oh yeah @wheat raft Ward generation was another problem i came across when trying out the build
even with twisted heart
How can you have ward problems with RM AND twisted heart.
exsanguinous + last step + ward on missing life on gloves + twisted heart + all the wards on the passives tree when casting ?
But i didnt try it extensively, so it could be fixed
I haven't do the math but it feels plenty
why would you use low life and twisted heart at the same time
You canโt run LL with Twisted
they don't work together
I think LL has a higher starting point , but Twisted has a higher cap for ward. IMO
TH with good passives and int and good castspeed gets me around 5000k'ish ward alone before frostguard and shield...but idk how fast that build casts (Vs RM lightningblast)
The problem was more to Elemental Nova, it felt nicer to do the channeling version, cuz it was so much more dps, but that shuts down Twisted heart
Casting elemental nova directly felt slower than using FC or LB as well, but could just be just my own feeling. Like i said, i didnt try it extensively, just did it to try out the ability
oh yeah if you channel it only casts once
discofever! ๐
the frozen claw triggered version shouldn't have this problem, and wards will scale with the frozen claw cast speed
... probably
Problem with Frost Claw version is that the nova is not the damage, but the spark charge applied through it
So its not fair to compare these builds together
sry could you rephrase ? i'm not sure I've understand
frost claw nova doesn't do damage, it's the spark that does ?
Depends on what you are comparing, like spark charges applied per second, should be comparable?
Yeah, through Fragment of the Enigma offhand catalyst
You can see the node on elemental nova Spark Charges
I see it
I guess thats fair too
It does insignificant damage compared to Spark Charge
what I was looking for so far is just a way to trigger nova with it
FC is just for debuffs and casting Nova. Nova is just for applying Spark Charge for damage
Does Spark Charges debuff on the enemy stack? I kinda thought they'd just blow up 1 by 1 actually, tho sometimes i do notice them exploding rather quickly in rapid succession
I see
are you familiar with that version of the build ? FC -> nova -> spark charge
I haven't tried ele nova spark charge, but to me it seems overkill in clear. You already have a good AoE from spark charges in Enigma, do you really need even moar?
Thatโs the meta build. I donโt use it though so Iโm not 100% familiar
I'm looking at what kind of damage I could get with a crit version of nova
calculator says 60k per nova. It probably doesn't account for target defences
Youโll get good damage, just not Enigma powered Spark Charge good
Wasn't the meta Frostclaw -> Dragorathclaw for LB->spark charge?
how far is it to the sparke damage version ?
One thing you need to keep in mind is the Additive Damage
I think it shifted to Laddle
Currently you have no access to flat additive damage
based on your mock-up build at least
ok
Oh yeah yeah forgot about that too. I just run direct cast LB on my ladle\sparkcharge build
I used to use that on early monolith, how does it fare against the FC build? I kinda want to switch back to see how it goes after having a bit more gear, just to play around with it a bit
IDK, i haven't tried any FC build personally as i just...i don't feel the skill itself fun
Quite the hassle to switch around tho
One thing keeping me from going back to the LB is, im gonna miss the disco rave in my screen
Well with enough cast speed you'll feel like you have channneled lightninblast ๐
insert SW emperor meme
Hi guys, +x Frost claw can only be dropped on the relic?
yes
I liked running it with the frost wall and it also casts the lb for me, just put it down and run through a group of mobs, then all of them exploding as i walk away
LOL, never dropped in 100h a single relic
Is it good damage-wise? Idk, i had fun with it at least
^ That's basically what i do, and swoosh with flamerush
I went with the teleport node on runic invo instead
Going through walls is fun
IDK i haven't really played more then 300c, and damage is good, but i can feel i need to get better gear to scale it more for anything serious. Nothing is killing me ofc, tanking everything, but i like stuff to die fast ๐
And i just don't wanna farm gear forevrrr
I mean nothing too much to do in the endgame besides pushing corruption, and min maxing builds, which i guess would mean farming gear
Yeah, but i just reroll when i feel like i've gone x hours without getting\finding a single upgrade.
I have...many alts ๐ But only one lv 100 RM, that's my sparky
I have like 5 other alts, and after playing all of them
I noticed that i like seeing my screen full of explosions instead
Have you tried Glacier? It got really chunky dmg. But idk how it actually does in monos. But leveling with it is a blast!
Only when i was leveling only, yeah
Never tried in monos
I mean if i could make the glacier explode screenwide, then maybe i'd give it a go
maybe stacking all "increased area with area spell" might be fun xd
And then reverse it to get the big one first!
is disintigrate better with lighting or fire? also I do have the offhand catalyst that gives me disintigrate damage for my crit chance
either works
realistically it depends on if you have gear for pen / increased damage or not
Idk about you, but I love to see things on fire
how much pen do i want
especially houses
:0
I mean what
Crazy talk
around 20 ish % or more
Glacier is great for leveling, and what I used. I'd love to try out n ice mage Glacier end game build
10 or so from a weapon, 10 or so from a passive
Houses are like gold now
good conductor for lightning
thanks
whats the best runemaster build going on rn?
seems like anything revolving around frost claw
man i cant find any +lvl to frost claw so i was looking for something different
same, 100h and never dropped
i did find some blue and yellow items with +1 frost claw
Fix your loot filter then?
but no exhalted
i'm struggling finding upgrades, i die a lot from orobyss and pushing corruption is a pain
nono it's ok, i check it every day
this
actually i have like 40k dps on frost claw, 75% res all around but i struggle with orobyss
you can only find +lvl to frostclaw from shattering correct? and not from random drops
100h and still i have a yellow amulet cuz nothing interesting
Shocking Golden wand of the house fire
hey guys, a good build to push corruption with Sorcerer?
something good for bosses and cleaning monoliths , i was trying meteor and fireball but is kinda meh
you can find all shards are random drops as well
its just rare
really i thought +lvl to anything skill shards dont drop
You can get it from affix drops, it's just rare af
they do
gotcha thanks
They will be dark orange
so will the blessings skill of knowledge help with the drop rate?
the blesing u get from last ruin
increase skill specifc shard drop rate 20-30%
Should really just throw a loot filter and shatter
And ideally go for exalted anyways, since crafting can only get you up to +2
Yea this, sorry. Don't want to risk not getting shards
Why does the nova+claw runemaster build run Blood of the Exile?
hey would you guys reccomend sorcerer or runmaster for a elemental nova frost claw build?
More Intelligence, mainly for that
Is Oceareon useful for Spark Charge RM?
does the type of catalyst matter when using the runes of ascendance? or the value of the catalyst
ngl guys, my gear is trash but ignite frost claw is insane
Dragorath dagger runemaster rullz
cuz aint it just random innvocations?
im not there yet but it still rock
I have to be honest, I didn't enjoy it - ignite is just overall the weakest affliction
200 stacks equates to like...3% off a boss.
that build uses firestarter so u can sustain right
da heck
that thing only has 3 spell damage?
๐คฃ
it still only has 3 base spell damge lol
yes?
hey guys, a good build to push corruption with Sorcerer?
something good for bosses and cleaning monoliths , i was trying meteor and fireball but is kinda meh
Well yea, but that's half the fun
do you spawn a big aoe
do you spawn frostguard
or die?
the choice is so random!

I'd say like 60%
Lmao
every high end build is just using runic for frostguard
or plasma
nothin else
so sure it can be fun
but that doesnt make it good lol
as long as shatter strike exist in my hearth something else will exist
It's not min maxxed but it can still push corruption not too badly
make a recording when it makes it past 1k and maybe ill rethink my opinion
but in the current state of the game, if a build isnt breezing through 1k+
its bad imo
๐คท
Agree to disagree on that
welp few hours of playing this today then we download dragons dogma 2
and play that for a few days
new league reveal in a few hours ๐
is ti bad to pick multiple passives to invest in in the same tier?
i feel kinda stucked with the build, i can't drop a decent scepter and i failed my frozen ire 3lp yesterday, dunno what to do, maybe change build?
With cof is like no sense hunting a frozen ire 2lp minimum
Anybody know's where "Spidersilk Sash" drops? or just keep running monoliths to get what I need (Ofc with belt drops)
I made my disintegrate build waaaay tankier
And a bit stronger
Will share update Inna sec

oh, good to know, so the only farmable items are set or unique items that drops from bosses?
Tweaks can be made. It's not finalized
Ideally I'd get NY same gloves but experimental woth the hp ward affix
I'm on my phone so excuse the typos
I would still drop one point from shock chance and add one point to MORE damage for dis
Shock is damage for me now
The more stacks of shock, the more damage I deal
What I need is a double t5 6 7 disintegrate flame ward relic
I really like it though and think low health is a good idea
How so? Forgive my ignorance
That really opens sh1t up
Passive
shock is affected by his passive as well as adding shred
Oh from the sorc tree
Do you think your passive points are better in scholar than in elemantalist? 84 health doesn't seem much
any and all flat HP is bigger than just what i get.
Sicne hybrid hp, and hp %
I have a total of around 55% total HP increase
so that 84 is technically closer to 120
Makes sense
what's the purpose of going over 100% cooldown reduction on the volcanic frenzy node on volcanic orb?
can't get meteor on RM u vegene
you never specified what u were casting on the crits
just throw kyo at them, shaped like meteor

kyo on crit
enemies take physical and mental dmg
when kyo talks about build
lmao
i could totally do a LL build tho with the gloves that I got
slap on that chest for ll build
yall really need to stop fekkin with me
lmao
not sure what that even is
Breezing through 350c tanking poison hits like nothing
Are you lb too?!
If youโre not LB, youโre wrong
kek
But do you even have 700% cast speed?
Cast speed and DR are the only stats I have
such a sh1t take
Oh whale
If it can clear corr 400 - 600, its fine. Just because its not as overtuned as some of the easy mode builds doesnt mean its bad lmao
Yea sure
" its not brokenly op so its bad!!!! "
I shall
i mean everybody got a right to they own opinion, no need to bash others over it
just stick with yours and move on lmao
The whole point of an ARPG is trying out, testing, and playing / theorycrtafting new builds.
Thatโs the point for you
Limiting yourself to only the top performers defeats the whole spirit of the genre
Builds, loot for those builds, these are the driving purpose of ARPGs
Who's lame and uses swords lol
LF a Mage high corrup for a better chance to loot +3/4 frost claw on relic
sad
Playing nova spark fc. Was wondering how accurate the crit strike chance calc on character sheet is? Says I have 40% but feels luike I 100% crit
There is crit strike chance flat
Crit strike chance multi
Crit spell multi
Not sure if the sheet calcs that together
standard crit chance affects spell crit.
Flat crit affects everything except for crit mult
gamblers gives +100% flat crit, which ends up more than 5x your crit values
Yea but don't you lose the effect the moment you crit, and then you have reduced crit rate
just for gamblers, other stuff has flat crit on it
I am a Runemaster, and I got an amulet that gives me 50% elemental dmg and 97% lightning dmg, are those stats better than gaining 7% crit chance through another amulet?
It really depends on your existing stats. Kinda hard to say
Like how much increased damage do you currently have? What is your current crit multiplier and chance? Etc
if you already have a lot of increased damage, more of it isn't as good as crit chance, as long as you're not capped on crit
ill have 37% crit chance, got 257% crit multiplier. Currently I got 318% lightning dmg , but with the 7% more crit chance, ill have 171% lighting dmg instead, and also -50% fire and cold dmg
if you try wearing both items, which one makes the dps number on your main skill higher?
you mean the dps that is showing when I hover on my frostclaw? the one with 318% lightning dmg
yeah
can you see the difference when you swap? it's just an estimate, but it can be useful when it works
yeah the difference is like 150ish dmg
but you gotta consider the crit multiplier though along with the increased crit chance no?
it ought to be factoring that in. crit and crit multiplier can be averaged out as a source of More Damage
if you have 100% crit and 200% multiplier, you have 100% more damage
very based to admit that
a lot of people will just talk out of their ass instead

lmao
while numbers like that is good tbh id think about whether im one shotting mobs or not
and how long it takes to kill mobs
the thing wtih fc spark is that there's already delay in terms of the speed of which the spell hits
and nova doesnt actually deal that much damage so you really need to be applying all ailments + ramping up
also like, cast speed technically means damage too
but obviously in fc's case its limited to how much you can cast since it cost mana
so all these things actually relate to each other in some ways
Do "Chance to apply Frostbite on hit with Cold Skills" apply to Frost Claw? Since it is a spell? Or there is no distinction in Last Epoch
literalklky any skill that has tag 'cold, spell'
spells are skills
ive hunderds of items in lmy stash ๐
imagine keeping all the garbage
i only keep my failed slams(to remind myself of the pain) BiS T7 stats for my build for slams, and all the random 3-4LP garbage i cant use cos its character bound stash
๐
i have 7 stash pages, and 1 of em is just full of keys
i mean if u got nothing better,
i keep pretty much everything that my filter pings
i thing i have and i dont use runic evoc so.... ๐ But i got to say i kinda lost atm on items, values, crafting mecanisms... so i read stuff but tend to keep waaaayyy more items than needed. Needless to say that my filter must be pretty bad as well ๐
Nobodyโs posted in 10 minutes, so Iโll fill the gap with a random question. What are examples of useful uniques for a cold crit build?
snowdrifts and frostbite shackles are always good,
Frost claw, ice barrage and glacier.
Frostbite gear isnโt bad, but Iโm not focusing on frostbite as a source of significant damage at the moment.
Got to lvl 80 with a frost claw lvling build - want to respec into one of the lightning ones that uses nova and such. Any good **written **guides out there?
all uhave to do is just literally sit on epochtools
there arent that many items in teh game
frostbite gear sells for some good money rn
which is nice
how sorc going @safe grail
crit strike chance or cast speed on gloves for nova spark fc rm?
toying w/ a lot of things but i may have found something w/ fireball lol
lmao nice
its fun exploring the spec tho
ye
i been messing around with warpath vk
doing different stuff for warpath
and i made a LL warpath, which can survive but doesn't do enough dmg
unless you perfectly get all the gear right affixes n stuff
too much work
if only healing hands worked with each hit of warpath
lmao
ok ive 2 keys for soulfire rn, level 79, will go for Tier2... lets get gamblers ๐
Wait do I have 100% crit strike rate on spells if I have 51% critical strike chance AND 61% Spell critical strike chance?
lightning frost claw sure seems to be critting 100%..
I understood from chat this is how it works, you sum it up
Ahhaa so I'm basically at 112% crit rate right now? And thats with a 3% prismatic gaze...
@barren pawn : Would you share your loot filter with me ? ๐
Still wonder how this affect disintegrate with ingvars
No shot is my ingvars over 2k CC
Itd be way stronger
Thoughts on stat allocation? Obviously still need LP and better slams, and Ukheiros..

Uhhh I don't believe that's how it works?
You know better ๐ This is what i understood, go ahead ๐
I may have just been misunderstanding it the whole time though
Yea no just tried it out with shooting fireballs and it's not 100%
Ok gonna give Sorcerer a try this time just to see if Frozen Orb Fantasy works out for me
that isn't how crit works lol
if you have 61% spell crit
anything w/ a spell tag uses that crit
Critical strike chance as a stat on the stat sheet is for abilities w/ no tag
That's what I've bought lol
So is it useless to stack a hybrid of spell crit AND normal crit?
when you stack normal crit
Or is spell crit normal crit + any additional spell crit?
it increases your spell crit
ye alright
however
spell crit as an affix
has a heavier weight
you can get more of it per affix than reg crit
Question about Frost claw veterans, im following BootyNoodles ignite frost claw runemaster and my q is: why he not roll int on items (most items dont have int), cuz isnt int = dmg?
ignite doesnt scale w/ int
Ah ok
we had htis conversation yesterday about frostbite scaling with int
cause int raises elemental damage
i dont even think thats true
where's the elemental scaling from int coming from?
where are we getting the notion that int raises elemental dmg?
is there a passive node im forgetting?
n
o
its just the idea that int appears in every spell as scaling tag
ahve u checked? im not in the game
you can't ctrl alt it in game, but LE Tools shows it having only a DoT tag
thus can only scale w/ increase cold dmg, ele dmg, and dot dmg
@sturdy summit
i was losing my mind when i literally said that int is useless
and someone said otherwise
oh yeah?
u dont remember?
when theyt said that in frost claw,the frostbite scales with int
I remember. Have you found your mind?
frostbite damage*
I tested it. It does.
then that's a bug
cause it's not supposed to
Frostbite does not have int scaling tags
only DoT
that's what I thought, too. It's very clearly increasing the damage when I change my int. I was able to get a reliable test going, where I only applied 1 frostbite stack
i assume we are only referencing the increase frostbite from the node
?
not from gear?
speaking about artor's sceptre.
FEllow mages
Heard of a guy that swapped prismatic gaze to Crest of unity for better dmg on nova spark frost claw RM build, but still held 100% crit.. Is that even possible withou double crit rolls on any non-uniques and on all LP rolls?
I j ust realized there are only exiled mages, not rogues or anyone else. Whats up with that??
I took off all my gear and applied one stack of frostbite using cold lightning blast. It was ticking for 30-33 damage. Adding 20 int increased that by about 3.
@safe grail so disintegrate has the int scaling tag despite being a dot
unless you are talking about the OTHER dot
frostbite is an ailment that specifically only has the DoT tag
fire / shock / poison etc
what was actually said was that frostbite that gets applied by an int-scaling ability gets int-scaling.
that'ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss fkn wild.
So yeh, youre talking about ailments then
so I tested it with lightning blast because that got me consistent numbers
yeah
thats fine if its implied
afaik they do NOT
I thought they didn't either, but the frostbite tick is definitely increasing with int
Sorry to tag you, but @viscid laurel does this sound like an intended interaction?
He's saying empirically testing it, it does
you're positive you only had int added on right? no other dmg
Skills inherit damage modifiers from the skill that inflicts them, including increased damage from attributes
yep. I also tested adding increased spell damage, and it I could see that it made no change.
Thank you!
ailments though?
yup
so 4% increased damage per int, even though it's not in the character sheet.
yeah
So in this case, disintegrate dots do actually scale with int too
Thanks for clearing that up Kain
i think it's best if we say
Wild interaction tbh
Happy to. Happy theorycrafting with that knowledge!
Ailment dots applied by abilities
is probably the correct way to say it colloquially '
time to create a disintegrate that stacks shock and fire with int
WAIT
