[onyx rivet]

Well i am going to find out, else i need to try fire orb cinder strike

[grim island]

Anyone knows?

[cobalt mantle]

Yes and yes

[void cargo]

IM graszcy ouyt rly

fking reset last points whats didi u use lvl 10, fking reset past 2 pointsn what didi u use

its fking catastraf

[wary cedar]

[grim island]

Thank you!

[ripe wave]

if multiple hail of arrows overlap, does the damage stack?

[elder condor]

Anyone tried shadow Rend blade dancer?

[serene crane]

Yea several people here

[elder condor]

So I’m seeing the top ones for rogue are shadow cascade and shadow rend, what’s the difference

[serene crane]

With Rend you usually just spam Rend => create bunch of shadows => consume them by another Rend => that procs Shadow Cascade and the shadows leave behind Umbral blades that explode, Cascade does a ton of damage while Rend spams shadows which with very high attack speed give you a lot of ward

[wraith nacelle]

God dam the new three omen echo is crazy i

[serene crane]

That Shadow Cascade one without Rend is where you use Dancing Strikes which give you global damage boost and then you use Sync Strike which spams bunch of shadows that use Shadow Cascade... both have really high damage

I'd say Rend is easier to gear up, both of the starter gear sets arent hard to get

[buoyant roost]

how can we check whether argentus armor actually works (the less damage percent) it never shows in the stats

[serene crane]

It only works while you're moving iirc

[elder condor]

Thank you, hmm I use to play sycn strike a while back

[buoyant roost]

ye, I can see it on the Build Planner, but not in game. Hopefully it works? 😄

[serene crane]

Its pretty old item, it better be working ingame 😄

[wary cedar]

what's y'all favourite pokemon card?

[tawny dagger]

are shadow daggers the only skill that has the melee and throwing attack tag therefore scaling off both?

[half nova]

Yes it scales off both

Only skill maybe

[serene crane]

@wary cedar finally found a good bow for the new 1.5 hybrid poison-phys-bleed-cold-fire-void build

[wraith nacelle]

Dam the new boss was easier to fight then the three omen window echo to get to him . Just blind first tried him on heart seeker

[wary cedar]

what new boss?

lol

Is there an omen boss?

[serene crane]

Observer

[wary cedar]

how do i get him?

[wary cedar]

uber one shot potential?

[serene crane]

through a telescope from far distance

[serene crane]

uber wont know what hit him and gets a heart attack from pure cringe

[fickle cairn]

Am I missing something with falcon fists? Why do so many bladedancer builds run this if they cant benefit?

[serene crane]

I think you need to buy the echo from the new npc in the middle for 3 omens and that should drop it? idk, I still need to do it

[wary cedar]

well i think i did this one

but i didnt checked if i got a new echo or something

[wraith nacelle]

You have to have all three windows up at ounce before any complete and then it will drop the boss echo in the end

[wary cedar]

ah check

did them all one by one

like a granny

[wraith nacelle]

You can 90% one before popping the other two just to make it a bit easier all three is a ton of mobs and you need to stay kind of centralized to keep all three up at ounce

[wary cedar]

i just dont have the confidence in my defense for that lmao

[wraith nacelle]

I did it pre red rings but the 20%dr would have been nice to have

thats my current gear

i want to swap chest plate back to kestrel tho

[wraith nacelle]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/profile/EyeofSuede/character/Suede_Eye_ this is my current gear discord can give you extra damage for hs with a decent idol setup

I’m also REALLY low lp on every thing

[wary cedar]

i know about discord, but i dont feel like grinding idols

bareyl get good stuff

[wraith nacelle]

It’s worth to maximize damage especially with the new omen idols

[stable anchor]

just for attack speed and some flat (even if its wrong type) on a good gloves base, easy to get multiple LP. generally they’re really strong melee gloves if you don’t have vise

[serene crane]

ngl this might be quite amazing aswell

[wary cedar]

i ll add it to the filter and see what i can get

[wraith nacelle]

What’s your current farming cor ?

[wary cedar]

300 🥀

[wraith nacelle]

Your still in the spot of t3 omen windows though so idols shouldn’t be supper rare and it you fix you phs res you already have better defenses then I do

[wary cedar]

ya i ll set up my planer and the loot filter

@wraith nacelle btw can you waever and then corrupt it?

havent tried yet

[cyan wren]

6s boss dummy with shadow rend cascade.

Holy tooltip.

[wraith nacelle]

Yea but getting weaver in chants can be pain so I haven’t finished mine yet and I don’t corrupt until I have a replacement that is equal or better in power

[wary cedar]

i mean at least there are just two idols we have to enchant lol

[wraith nacelle]

Yup I’m trying to get both with t7 crit chance and hope fully switch off peak and onto a snow blind if I can get enough crit chance

[charred junco]

how is rogue leveling? interested in the rend build. any leveling gear i can pre fast pretty easy?

[serene crane]

I was running with Dreamthorn and just some mana regen whenever you can find it, its not spammable but still clears things easily

[charred junco]

as long as its not somehow worse than primalist lvling XD

[serene crane]

...I just saw 700 bleed stacks... as non-bleed build... cracked attack speed...

[charred junco]

wtf

[wary cedar]

my girlfriend once a month be like:

[serene crane]

I wonder what will get nuked tho... ward on shadow creation? umbrals? shadow respawn chance?

[wary cedar]

the marksman

[serene crane]

Please no spoilers

[charred junco]

i can't wait for it to be nerfed the moment i lvl the character to the point just like frog idols

[main cape]

any bladestorm rogues who have beat Uber Aberroth able to share their profiles? I'm curious of alternatives to the Razorfall boots, they are so rare and i feel like they don't offer much beyond the +2 which I don't think will even boost my shuriken damage

wait now not only falconer but bd can do the same uber almost 1-shot things too?

[halcyon crane]

umbral blade recall shenanigans lol

[half nova]

Was always a thing Falconer scaling is just better and ew making enough umbrals as bd pre-rend

[charred junco]

lol what i saw and try to try XD

[upbeat orchid]

I want to try blade dancer but not sure what to try. Do I go bladestorm, shadow rend, or cascade?

[ebon python]

I was considering rolling a ballista falconer but feel what I've seen is too glass cannon for me in terms of guides. Would it work okay with some adjustments for medium survivability?

just got really nice roll from the vendor, nemesis once I get a spare maybe

[charred junco]

nemesis trolls me, get nothing good on stuff i need, randomly throw in bee glove coz have nothing

and i get 2 LP

[serene crane]

I bricked 13 Omnis amulets today, dont worry

[errant pollen]

Why does the Mirage form buff not show up on my buffs bar?

[serene crane]

Did you crit?

[errant pollen]

yellow numbers right?

[serene crane]

yea

[errant pollen]

yeah it only crits with like 5-8 hundo bleed stacks

[serene crane]

No idea then 🤔 I think it had a buff icon? Its been some time since I used it :c

[elder condor]

idk whether to do dancing strikes rogue or rend shadow cascade. I care about bossing and speed

[errant pollen]

so you want fast clear and bossing?

[serene crane]

DS proccing cascade anywhere you go or Rend once you get high attack speed is fast and ezpz bossing

[errant pollen]

are the nodes in LM for auto casting cascade worth it? the % seems so low

[serene crane]

This one? You want as many mirages, so +4 from LM tree, Shadow Eater and +2 from t7 body armor... and low cooldown on LM itself... I was playing it with Black Blade of Chaos and it was a lot spammable + it refunds you plenty of mana, Cascade can also kill stuff to spam more shadows for next hit of LM

[errant pollen]

ah that's what it would be for

I'm not using cascade as my engine, i've got umbral for mana

[serene crane]

I was playing both, LM needs a looot of mana because of this, its big damage 😄

Now with Shift you can even go lowlife for the extra mana refund

[errant pollen]

I'm using LM as a force multiplier basically, Stacking bleed with umbral and shift proc'ing cascade, then poping LM to chunk with auto crits

[serene crane]

Yea the Mirage Form buff is pretty nice

it goes kinda nice with Decoy for some extra crit multi

[errant pollen]

this is what i've cooked up so far this season
https://www.lastepochtools.com/profile/Dadradskittle/character/UmbralDad
just trying to put together good rolls on a Carrion Creations gloves, Strand of Souls belt, a Wall of nothing, and boneclamor

debating swapping to a second Traitors dagger

[charred junco]

i'm try out rend coz of that 1 shot video lol hopefully clear is decent. been playing frog but omen with it feels rough. i did the omen woven and spent like 10 mins running in circles until i finished it, was terrible

[errant pollen]

10 minutes of running around sounds like the shitty champion omen window thing

i hated that shit

[charred junco]

the frogs just wasn't strong enough clear to kill the insane spawn

so they start dying respanwing so i just had to run in circle to stay alive until enough get killed to fill up the bar. then the actual bosses were easy as shit

its the woen echo one you place down

[serene crane]

Im pretty much oneshotting everything at 700c and Im running quite weaker build... 😄

[charred junco]

i'm only atl iek 250 lol

[errant pollen]

i'm barely scraping 200, but i'm assemblying the pieces still

took forever to stop blowing up

[charred junco]

i'm farming up all the pieces on myf rog build for this bladedancer build

[maiden gyro]

kay i have a question

what in the f does blade storm all scale off?

[errant pollen]

look at the tags

[maiden gyro]

gonna be real of its only 2 things im gonna be slightly miffed

[errant pollen]

base its physical, dex, throwing

its literally no different than when umbral blades with bladestorm

[maiden gyro]

dont use those either really..

[serene crane]

Mmmmm, its like one leg in bleed and other leg in crits 😄
Either way... Dawnfall in Umbrals doesnt really do anything for you since you dont cast Umbrals yourself; you can get Stabbig Blast and 3/3 piercing behind it
In Shift you can could remove Shadow Recoup that heal is nothing, Emergency Flask too unless you just struggle surviving and 2 points from Elusive and get 1point in Deadly Ambush and 3/3 in Braskula, that damage is big
Shadow Flourish in Cascade is also huge damage
my guess is later on you'll kinda hit a wall between bleed DoT and crits :c

[errant pollen]

whut, i cast umbral all the time myself

[serene crane]

Cooldown reduction for easier life 😄

[errant pollen]

its mostly bleed build, the crits are incidental and i don't really have anything spec'd into them

like i said, i'm putting together gear to swap gloves, chest, helm

[serene crane]

Carrions are quite cool

[errant pollen]

I tried using Shadow Flourish but I didn't notice it showing up on my buffs bar, but it might be like mirage form where it works just not displayed

[serene crane]

Yea it shouldnt be showing there

[errant pollen]

so probs pull ranks out of Execution & Careful assault to put into flourish?

could also swap the 2 points in dismantle to shadow torrent and one point into battle trance just to connect paths

[serene crane]

Yea pretty much, also Rending is pretty meh, 100% is just 1 stack

[errant pollen]

true, that 1 stack could be gotten from a 4th point in dagger dance

[serene crane]

You could also check out Salt the Wound gloves instead, with nice crit multi it converts almost half of it into bleed penetration

[errant pollen]

is LM considered a channel?

[serene crane]

Nope, its a single click

[errant pollen]

I thought about Salt the wound when i was going for the set ring using the jormund axe for 20% damage, and the shadows dopliganger set

does bras hesitation node in shift work if I have Dancing Shadows? like won't it always just proc on the cascade from that?

[serene crane]

Doppel relic could be quite cool once you get Black Blade with high rolls (getting good rolls AND LP is absolute hell), t7 cooldown reduction on boots+belt and possibly on gloves and helmet as implicits... you could pick the Shadow nodes in LM, things might get funny 😄

[serene crane]

eh Im not sure tbh 😄 could be like that

[errant pollen]

the best way to buff bleed is %physical damage right?

[serene crane]

%damage over time/%inc phys damage should be pretty much the same, physical penetration

[errant pollen]

oh god bras hesitation isn't worth the damage for this build, it completely kills the ward gen from umbral blades pulling thru swaths of enemies

i'm hard pressed to get 2k ward per shift compared to the 6-10k I get without it

[serene crane]

alright, a lot of stuff all around but nowhere even near uber aberroth... 😄 first try blind aswell... 😄

[serene crane]

Yea its for crit, wont do anything for DoTs

[tawny spoke]

whats the best rogue build rn

[wraith nacelle]

Nice , it’s a cool fight regardless might try to farm out some amulets latter on

[tawny spoke]

bladestorm or shadow cascade

[topaz schooner]

Did they fix Graveyard Prisons yet

[halcyon shale]

Does anyone have a planner for a umbral blade falconer like this one?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3m_2oWmRSY

[elder condor]

what did y'all do for leveling?

[fossil scroll]

Can some1 kill abberoth for me

[void cargo]

Hi

I refer to this 2 video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6xFXtX-dmo

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnDRKxCFOgo

I'd like to understand what makes the umbral blade recall so powerful.

What's new in Season 4 that wasn't present last season, thus enabling the Uber OS?

I don't understand what new mechanic is being abused.

[cyan wren]

Nothing is being "abused" or "exploited".
UB just has insane multipliers on the skill itself, combined with flow and countless other skill multipliers on top.

[void cargo]

So it is just the classical too much more damage multiplier in the game. Nothing else? No shadow drop insane amount of umbral or shadow invocation loop or anything like that.

But what are the new multiplier that weren't in game s3 (expect flow but flow "just" double the damage if it were alone it would just take 10s last season to do the same)

[half nova]

On top of being a skill you can preplace

[cyan wren]

Its like Ice Traps for one shotting Ubers in POE.

[void cargo]

I don't know poe.

[cyan wren]

U place countless UB on the Boss before he spawns and recall nuke it.

[half nova]

And same gimmick but slightly different based on the Falconer build last season

[void cargo]

Ok so the "abuse" is the infinite UB you can drop before recalling them with boosted combo.

Thx 🙏

[cyan wren]

its not infinite, blades have limited uptime.
But usually its at least 14 when u recall with 140 dex (easy to achieve)

[fickle cairn]

do bladedancers inately summon shadows? I am summoning shadows off dancing blades and cant figure out what from

[void cargo]

Shadow rend , synchronized strike, smoke bomb, black arrow, and the new set, are source of shadow

[fickle cairn]

Im going through echos with only dancing blades and it is leaving shadows

pretty OP just cant figure out why its working

ahh nvm it is the cascade proc. I see

[charred junco]

i was farming gear for it got most of it pretty fast but for some reason tabi just like refuse to drop XD

[halcyon shale]

Does anyone have a UB Falconer build for farming not bossing?

[woeful token]

Does it even work post season 2

[halcyon shale]

I see people playing it but no guides just gameplay and their skills are like all over 20pts

I was hoping to find a guide for this season since people are still playing it but the profile for the guides are diff setups

[woeful token]

I just don't see how UB falconer is a thing anymore
What it used to be in season 2, it's been patched out
Then with the rogue skill changes in season 4...
What is it now... Aerial assault explosive UB spammer?

[charred junco]

which rogue skill has the most generic multipler? i'm trying this lvling set up i see scaling kinda ignore from firestarter ignite. kinda want a skill hit a lot and has generic multipler to scale the ignite

[lapis pumice]

Dots in le dont care about damage from the origin like Poe or others

[charred junco]

oh the video i was watching said pick a skill with lot of generic scaling so i assume it did

[lapis pumice]

Iirc those do scale dots

If the node doesn't specify hit or melee this kind of stuff it will scale dot

[charred junco]

know any rogue skill like that off the top of your head XD?

[lapis pumice]

Nope xd

Gotta read the tooltips 💀

Or wait an answer, but i'm not near a computer

[cyan wren]

There's not a single viable way to scale dots in this game dont even bother.
Tried multiple times with max gear. 0 dps.

[lapis pumice]

He was asking for firestarter twink leveling stuff

[cyan wren]

Just play bladestorm.

[charred junco]

honestly putting more effort into this than needed XD but was just grabbing stuff while i was farming for other gear lol. guess just see how far it gets me

[topaz schooner]

anyone know how much red ring is on market rn? just dropped one non-cof lol

nvm it cannot be traded for some reason

[half nova]

The only dot build that kind of works was blackhole, bleed and frostbite most of the others are kinda meme or somehow become a dot build with more hit damage than dot damage

[lime vine]

Wat

[sage canyon]

It still oneshots uber nothong changed abt that build

If anything it gor buffed with double dmg

[wary cedar]

You have died

[lime vine]

Thank you for noticing, I'm more interested in the dmg number

300 corr with full resist

[wary cedar]

well it's really big

[lime vine]

reckon its intentional?

[wary cedar]

maybe get some more hp

[woeful token]

Got a video of that happening in season 4?

[sage canyon]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMKUJWvTch0

[topaz schooner]

Is there any reliable way of farming these?

Do these just drop from omens randomly or can you corrupt a regular one into a omen

[wary cedar]

drop only

[topaz schooner]

fak. i've had it on my filter since day 1 and i havent seen one

i assumed it was from the omen boss thing

[wary cedar]

no

just rare

so better not plan a build with 3 of these lol

[topaz schooner]

i mean its just extra DPS not like its mechanically needed

but it sure is a lot of damage

[short goblet]

hey guys with my body pieces i keep getting minion damage does that stact on my falcon or no

[wraith nacelle]

You can farm the omens veil woven echo for three windows a run that would give you a higher chance at finding the mods you want

[topaz schooner]

whats the corruption on that one

[wraith nacelle]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/endgame/monolith/woven-echoes/omens-veil minimum of 100c

[topaz schooner]

do you think corruption matters or can i just run them at 300-400 and keep reset farming em

[wraith nacelle]

Not sure iv been just farming around 500 for now and it seems fine

[topaz schooner]

i'll imprint it and check it out appreciate it

[wraith nacelle]

Np if you not worried about fighting the boss yet you can just take them one at a time for now . When you want to do observer you will need to do all three at ounce

[soft mauve]

any way to use Dancing Strikes with a 2Handed weapon?

[zenith rivet]

as far as i know the skill requires dual wield to be used

[wary cedar]

i beat lagoon 15 times now

still now cold dmg blessing

[zenith rivet]

same thing happened to me but with the Crit Multi blessing from Rayleth

[wary cedar]

and now i am out of temproal keystones

[zenith rivet]

i got it on the 1 kill i did in normal mono and never again

[wary cedar]

what a great system

having so much fun here

[zenith rivet]

you need to play the game more!

[wary cedar]

that makes no sense

[zenith rivet]

i know

but thats the thing with rng systems

[glad tangle]

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/planner/huf8qm0i#2

Just want to share my shuriken build now, its fun to use.

im in 400c, can clear everything very fast, can stun boss easily, they can't move and skip phase

[wary cedar]

ruined

[serene crane]

hello darkness my old friend...

[serene crane]

Got a planner for whatever thing you tried?

[wary cedar]

random ignite chance but i ll take that

[serene crane]

Doesnt Troka or whatever quiver convert it to frostbite? Cold/forstbite shurikens would've been interesting...

[wary cedar]

Troka ain't doin shit

i m not even using it

[serene crane]

Its really lame there still arent any set bow/quiver with all the new sets being pretty damn good

[wary cedar]

well they would need to be really powerful to keep up with the uniques we got there

or maybe some armor set for bows n stuff

[ebon python]

I find the life on hit from the flow node is messing with architects of astral blood's ward gen - any options that don't require removing the node?

Windmill ballet bladedancer is what I'm doing

[wary cedar]

remove the node

[ebon python]

I mean it's an option - it's just nice dps

[wary cedar]

you can't have 0hp build + hp sustain at the same time

gotta chose one

[serene crane]

"life on hit" is something you cant turn off unless I forgot about some item... "life leech" tho you can turn off with at least 2 uniques

[ebon python]

True, was just hoping there was some trick to counter it

cloaked reaper is also an issue I think

[serene crane]

lol absolutely

[ebon python]

Thanks, just going to change some nodes

[serene crane]

Flow is only 6 life on hit... Reaper is like morbilion heals

[ebon python]

Do you think flow alone would cause a ton of issues

[serene crane]

Ive never tried lowlife with that so idk, but surely more managable than Reaper, I think somebody was talking about still staying on lowlife with it not a long time ago 🤔

Just drop reaper and try it on training dummies

[ebon python]

Not as bad but still a ton of life on hit while clearing

Think I need to drop flow, shame because it's a ton of dmg

[deft wadi]

i had to unspec flow when i switched to architects

[ebon python]

What did you replace it with for dmg if anything

[deft wadi]

i swapped my entire build when i got architect

[ebon python]

Ah, so not windmill ballet anymore?

[deft wadi]

yea i switched to a shadow rend cascade build

[ebon python]

Ah. Maybe I'll go life based and see how it goes as far as my current build goes, because I like it. Thanks.

[deft wadi]

was just leveling with dancing strikes until i had mana

[ashen rampart]

which version? can you send me a planner

[deft wadi]

im trying to do my own build and its still cooking but i can if u want

im only at 300c rn

[ashen rampart]

as now i am playing shadow cascade with dancing strikes / sincronised

but i would like something more flowy

[deft wadi]

im doing an elemental crit build with kuzons and lightning shadow rend

ill send the planner when i get online in a little bit

[serene crane]

If you remember your account name and character's name, you can drop those here and people can import them in the planner

[deft wadi]

it feels very nice so far once u get into the rhythm

ah ok

[deft wadi]

acc name is skye_uwu, char name is PuppyWithABBC (it was supposed to be a black blade build xdd)

the shadow rend isnt converted yet bc i dont have a relic to replace dopplegangers with and i need at least 2 more points

my gf made me go to bed before i could finish 😔

[ashen rampart]

hmm can you send a clip on how it plays when you come online ?

[deft wadi]

i can

[ashen rampart]

can someone check out my build and tell me what to improve first? i know that i get shattered world it would boost my build soooo much, but i am still not able to clear it and i cannot find someone who can help me kill it

https://www.lastepochtools.com/profile/G2orgi/character/Goshoo

[shadow ember]

where can i find it? it is not listed under shadow rend...

[serene crane]

I wonder, how much does your ES go whenever you pick up Mountain shrine with Astral Blood?

[daring trench]

errm what do you guys reccomend I do to this?

[serene crane]

Havoc t7 into suffix, Redemption and hope for t7 hybrid/cooldown?

[wary cedar]

havoc until the strenght is t7, swap for dex, and slam

i mean depends on build

so whatver

you can also sell it to a merchant for some gold

[daring trench]

i was just following the maxroll shadow cascade build

[serene crane]

secret MG strat

but yea swap str into dex through one of the woven echoes is a nice idea, I think it only costs 1FP and wont reduce it to 0?

[wary cedar]

@serene crane bend me over and call me your minor idol

[serene crane]

Im pretty sure The End of Time police would knock on my echo door If I said something like that

[wary cedar]

i will tell no one

[serene crane]

Honestly it just looks good? Relic is good, could try corrupting some to at elast get one with max rolls, 2LP strands with cooldowns and hybrid life/phys damage, 1LP Omnis... healing effectivness and health regen on body and ring, 2LP Nomad shouldnt be any hard to get

[ashen rampart]

oh, well still will try to find somone to help me get shattered woorlds

wanna try to be faster, it will help me with the flow of the build

[deft wadi]

quick mono

i switched a few points around to get the lightning conv

[ashen rampart]

man it looks cool

it is very similar to my build, but you use shadow rend instead of dancing strikes

[deft wadi]

i liked dancing strikes but shadow rend is cooler (im a weeb)

[ashen rampart]

well i want something that can continue the flow of the build

so imma try to use shadow rend as a movement skill

and proccing shadow cascade and look how that feels

[charred junco]

is the weaver tree node to make everything spawn in a chain good? Coz after taking it almost never see any of the special chains anymore

[serene crane]

I run it, see them often enough

[wary cedar]

whats wrong with your map?

[deft wadi]

wdym

[wary cedar]

like my question is

do you really play like this?

[deft wadi]

yea?

still dont get what the question is about

[strong yoke]

why does it say to use the slow node on bladestorm. Feels like a waste of poins since enemies die to fast or they dont move either way

blade frenzy on the left seems stronger or even more area from longsword slash

[serene crane]

Just the slow I guess since there is no more damage per unique ailment like some skills have

[strong yoke]

the extra throwing dmg here seems better for shurican dmg or not

i gues i try it out

[wary cedar]

@strong yoke zeig mal den Planner den du verfolgst

[serene crane]

@buoyant roost guess what

[buoyant roost]

oh ruby fang corrupted? 😄

I think I will just prophecy farm the jormund set and corrupt it 😄

[serene crane]

Im putting together bleed rend 😄 big attacks speed, another attack speed from Ruby Fang (2set so axe alone is already full with Entwined ring) and Jormun sword+belt 😄

this is crap base, but it rolled quite nice affixes... expect the champ one that kinda turns the entire thing into ignite 😄 soooo could definitely do ignite rend 😄

[buoyant roost]

but in general bleed is better for rogue, simply because of the passives

and also uniques are stilll better for bleed I think

[serene crane]

Ruby also makes enough poisons stacks to max out bleed bonus for Deadly Mixture node... or just extra bleed chance If you'd run with carrion gloves, but either +1 shadow gloves are way better or Salt, that pen is big

Yea, ignite and even poison need some more stuff :c

[buoyant roost]

poison is till worst out of all ailments I think

what do you say about my amulet 🙁

[serene crane]

I'd like it If it didnt have 0FP left... 😄

[buoyant roost]

exactly 🙁 and base sucks. but currently my best 😄

btw im trying to figure out that bladestorm explosion thing

there's so little way to get mana back on rogue

I think the best way is to get a tier 8 mana regen on belt

[wary cedar]

you guys ever played terraria?

[serene crane]

Sapping Strikes and whatever 0 mana kill you can get

Umbrals is possible with 2x T7 -5; -1 from BD and a stack from Mountain boots; Shurikens should be easy enough

[buoyant roost]

the problem there is, you dont wanna spec into throwing attack speed or melee attack speed. therefore getting the value out of it....

on falconer, aerial assault has 9% mana return. bnut you need a lot of mana to be effective

OMG finally got a weaver will I want..... prayge t7

[serene crane]

throw attack speed is still worth tho 😄 could get rings with throw mana cost+dmg prefix and second prefix with throw speed

[serene crane]

I think I played it like once 😄

[wary cedar]

play it again, such a good game

after you re done with the LE season of course lol

[serene crane]

The list of games to play is already too long...

[wary cedar]

tell me

[serene crane]

I play FF14 on the side since LE s4 came out, the story there takes god damn long time
GRIME 2 came out recently
I wanted to play another playthrough of Bloodlines 1; also to replay Bloodlines 2 as much as crappy that game is + expansions this year
VTM novela games
and I was gifted entire set of Mass Effect games...
also new PoE2 season to check out whenver it comes out

[wary cedar]

i dont know any of these games lmao

[serene crane]

phew
good so you dont know I made them up

jk

[wary cedar]

if hear of ff14 but i dont know what you do there

and i know poe2 but that game is trash

that's it

[serene crane]

It needs a loooot of work to be at some good level

[wary cedar]

i refunded it bc of terrible optimization

[lapis pumice]

Poe 2 content is ok now, it's a nice bridge between LE & poe1 system density wise imo, i did that path

If you crave for more arpgs

Ghostlore is another one i enjoyed much, albeit a bit pricey for the content it offers imo (trying to not off topic too much xd)

[serene crane]

Its ofc giga far from PoE1, but Im not one of those people that were expecting entire PoE1 reskinned in a new game... it'll take time and lot of work... also half of the weapons and classes are still missing, story not finished, more league mechanics to come... and hopefully some actually good crafting

[lapis pumice]

Campaign is also a pain if you come from le/poe1 xd

It's sooooo long

[serene crane]

Yea but I kinda enjoyed it, a little break from the endless mapping... 😄

Aaaaand I bricked another Omnis in Nemesis... I need some good Shade/Omnis farm 😄

[upper vale]

Hey people, any version of the Bladestorm+Shuriken to recommend?

[buoyant roost]

erm. I enjoy mine 😄

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

but its not the strongest build for sure 🙂

[minor locust]

Ghostlore is amazing

Made all sorts of stupid builds

[flat falcon]

Going to start the season, finally. What are the differences between the Shadow Rend and Shadow Cascade builds?

[minor locust]

Shadowrend procs your cascade

You basically just move while spamming rend

[flat falcon]

Are they similar in terms of clear, tankiness, etc?

[deft wadi]

shadow rend has felt better than self casting cascade or using dancing strikes

theyre pretty similar but shadow rend is nice for a bit of range

[shrewd dome]

Anyone kill Uber abberoth with dancing strike shuriken build?

[serene crane]

classic

[dull sequoia]

yes SIR

[serene crane]

@wary cedar lowlife Kestrel online!

[wary cedar]

no.

[serene crane]

weak

[clever basalt]

Bro, how rare is traitor's tongue ? I started collecting them after I rolled 50 ascendancy runes, that's over a hundred daggers without ever seeing one lmao

[shrewd dome]

why is strand of souls good for shuriken dancing strike?

the ward retention?

asking cause I have a 2LP thorn slinger thats pretty good

[serene crane]

It gives you big ward and keeps the ward up while clearing by killing enemies, very nice thing to have

Chains of Uleros is also great

[shrewd dome]

so replace my 2LP thorns?

which one is better for killing uber lol

[serene crane]

Thorns for bossing If you need the +1, Strands will just make you tankier... not really against his 1shots, but still 😄

[clever basalt]

I JUST HAD TO COMPLAIN

[serene crane]

ez turtle into 2LP

[charred junco]

very common? i pop a few unique dagger prophey and got so many

[verbal crag]

I want to get health on here. I guess rune of removal is the only play?

Ideal would be dual health (or another useful suffix) + dex + damage w/sword

For slamming*

[serene crane]

Pretty much anything is hit & pray

Chaos the t4 and pray
Removal and pray it hits t4
Redemption into hitting t7 dex and t7 %sword is double pray

[verbal crag]

It'd go onto a 3LP peak of the mountain. I think it's doubtful I'll hit something worth slamming even with the 2T7

But I guess otherwise it'll just rot in my stash

So might as well try

[upper vale]

Could try to seal that regen

[serene crane]

Havoc to swap t4 into suffix, then chaos it into dex, then havoc into 2x t7 prefixes again... all is random and probably low chance

[verbal crag]

Not terribly high fp either

If it goes anything like my last attempt, I'll get lucky on everything except fp for havoc 🙂

Thanks for the advice both of you!

[serene crane]

Sealing the t4 has about the same chance as trying to remove it 😄

[verbal crag]

1 successful suffix removal!

I realized if I can't remove both then it's probably not worth the slam

So now 33% chance of success for removal or 13.5% chance of seal. But seal has lesser downside

So seal it is

[serene crane]

Well, If you manage to remove the t5, then you'll have to fill it with whatever you want in suffixes, hit Havoc to move t7 from what you dont want, seal t1 of what you dont want, havoc both t7 into prefixes again and pump suffixes to t5

Thats my guess, idk If there is any other solution, Im not the best at this either

[verbal crag]

Oh yeah good point

I removed the t5

I should probably now add a t1 and havoc around

[serene crane]

A lot of steps, so gotta get lucky with FP too so make sure whatever you can do has Hope 😄

[verbal crag]

Yess

[shrewd dome]

how do you guys crit cap for shuriken dancing strike? my throwing crit is at 63% but I have helm of the mountain and tongue in off hand

[serene crane]

slammed crit chance/%chance on one of the weapons maybe?

[shrewd dome]

okay

[serene crane]

amulet can have one too, but flat throw is also great there

[shrewd dome]

yeah I put flat throw on my nihilis ammy lol

[serene crane]

Whats in your main hand? 😄

[shrewd dome]

2x tongues

[serene crane]

t7 flat crit is 9-10%, that might do a lot 😄

[serene crane]

well, not the worst I guess

[shrewd dome]

is 2x tongue not the strongest setup?

[serene crane]

In main hand its fine If you get it slammed and +2, idk If strongest but very good for sure 😄

[woeful mason]

what do you guys think of the feel of bladedancer this season?

[serene crane]

A lot of viable builds, not everything viable for uber, some super strong interractions, it feels great

[storm lantern]

Finally found a decent dagger to slam this 4LP

[charred junco]

damn

[topaz schooner]

ironic considering LE lol

LE has easily the worst optimization of any ARPG I've ever played

one cast of smoke bomb + rend can cut fps in half 😭

[topaz schooner]

shuriken?

[storm lantern]

indeed

[topaz schooner]

ye nice

very very nice

i need an lp3 so i can get more attack speed on cascade

i keep failing damn 1 in 3

on lp2

[topaz schooner]

chaos the health regen then remove last resort ye

Ideally you'd start with lower tiers before the havoc

unless that dropped natural from nemesis which is pretty lucky

[verbal crag]

It was nemesis

[topaz schooner]

it's 1 in 18 ascendence, its the rarest dagger

[topaz schooner]

void?

i wish you could still imprint double exalted.. its such a grind to get 7/7 bases

[verbal crag]

You can't imprint double exalted?

[verbal crag]

I didn't notice

[topaz schooner]

they nerfed it in s4

[verbal crag]

Righto

But still can right? just nerfed

Out of havocs.

[topaz schooner]

dont think it drops double exalted anymore, or hasnt for me

i guess you can but ngl feels like 10x rarer

i wish there was an icon on drops that came from imprint instead of having to test with a friend to see if you can send it

[verbal crag]

Ya

I was looking forward to a sweet, sweet 3LP peak too

Thanks for the advice by the way

[topaz schooner]

nice you got the removal

salvagable

[verbal crag]

Yep!

It's just a race against FP, which I'll very likely lose

But might as well try

[topaz schooner]

yeah its a 1 in 11 to get t7 health t7 increased damage so it is gonna be hard to hit with 15fp

[stable anchor]

datamine was showing roughly 28x nerf for 2t7

[crimson latch]

Jesus

[serene crane]

Damns thats wild

[verbal crag]

Imprint drop was so close

[dusky current]

on the max roll build guide for the shadow rend would the red ring be better than the abandoned chitin?

[main cape]

So I corrupted one of my idols and got a bee summoning mod, i think i wish it was ruined instead the noise is so annoying lol

[verbal crag]

Oh heck yeah

Sealed the regen

Final result. Shame I couldn't squeeze a creation rune in, but I'm super lucky I got this far

[unique umbra]

for shadow cascade do i want flat melee + melee attack speed or is it better to have %phys/crit multi/or phys pen?

[serene crane]

I'd say crit multi

[main cape]

is there anyway to force stay with dancing strikes?

finding uber aberroth not worth the headache without speccing out of it

[upper vale]

put the cursor on top of your character

[dusky current]

on the max roll build guide for the shadow rend would the red ring be better than the abandoned chitin?

[serene crane]

No

[serene crane]

Its not like Red Ring would be bad, but here its just not good... you wont reach 180 total atributes with that build unless you sacrifice other affixes on the gear for the 10% DR which would either be huge dps loss or I'd say even bigger survivability loss... so you can look at Red Ring as a fancy thing that would only give you all resists, which you should have pretty much covered included everything else on the Red Ring

Crafted Weaver ring will auto-complete set with Entwined ring while giving you more damage aswell

[dusky current]

Thanks mate!! Big help

[verbal crag]

Didn't get the sword. Oh well can't win em all

Not really BiS lineup anyway

Annnd it's gone. RIP corruption deleted legendary affixes

[dire pawn]

does anyone have a fix for ballista and omen encounters

cause im getting cooked

[cyan wren]

Play Ballista HC version.

Zhp you just skip omen.

Or do low corruption (you still die).

[dire pawn]

how much dps loss is the hardcore version

i wanna do the omens bro wth

dont wanna skip

[cyan wren]

Looks like huge dps lost since u gotta drop the boots but Ballista doing more than enough dmg.

[tawny spoke]

bladestorm or shadow cascade?

whats the best rogue build rn

[wise umbra]

How does elemental arrow interact with trap sprinkler from marksman, assuming you're using bow for explosive trap?

Do the followup traps count as part of the original trap for purposes of elemental arrow?

[serene crane]

UB falconer or flow UB Rend bladedancer tha both can pretty much oneshot Uberroth; Rend cascade for mapping

[eager mason]

lol

[serene crane]

Of course it has min rolls...

[eager mason]

need to farm 2lp and corrupt it to reroll this one

[potent rune]

Its Okey it can be saved

Only good thing about this corr league

Your ultra rare gear can be cheesed for rerolls

[lime thorn]

W corruption

the highs are worth the bricks

[buoyant roost]

jesus man. I never seen LP2, yet LP3 there it is :D. Now get some 3xT7s and corrupt. Sweaty balls incoming

[serene crane]

@buoyant roost yo check this one 😄

[buoyant roost]

that crit multi good for Salt

now corrupt 😄

[serene crane]

Yea I had a solid one with t7 attack speed and 7% from Ruby, but... I had a little accident I wont talk about 😄

[buoyant roost]

First this season 😄

[serene crane]

Time for some big crafts 😄

@cyan wren sir I might need to ask you to colaborate with your bleed rogue research

[buoyant roost]

What'sy our current setup @serene crane share

[serene crane]

Almost half of the gear are leftovers from my other SD Rend build 😄

• I need better sword with t7 attack speed/t7 crit multi/bleed chance/phys pen and sealed Jormun
• body with t7 ward on shadow creation/%chance to bleed per sword and sealed Doppel idealy on Wyrmhide base for extra %dot
• pretty much same axe but with t7 speed, phys pen in suffix and sealed Ruby
• same relic but Ruby base for bleed chance
• 2LP with t7 speed and %dot
• t7 crit multi on Omnis
• entirely enchant Huge idols, still looking for some combinations but this gave me some huge bleed damage boost 😄
• still missing few levels, which I probably grab a bit from Concentration and see how it goes... or just small bleed chance from BD and parry
• phys shred blessing is what Im still missing

then ofc there is corruption that adds crit multi and extra damage to frozen enemies, but... I dont even count on getting that 😄

so far Ive tried Aberroth once and pretty much facetanked him with like, idk, 1min30s kill? so its kinda alright 😄

[topaz schooner]

disgusting

[topaz schooner]

Olv if you add throwing tag to cascade through one point in the throwing knife does it scale with throwing crit multi + throwing damage?

for the melee part

i think it does?

but icr

i know you can add throwing tag and scale the melee AOE

but idk about flat

[serene crane]

Mmmmm, it should, it loses the melee tag

[topaz schooner]

Oh does it

fak so all my % melee damage is null?

lol dammit

[serene crane]

Its my rough noobie guess so, I didnt test that myself :c

[topaz schooner]

did they remove dummy damage variance?

i thought they did

but i'm getting crazy variance

and idk why

i'm not creating shadows so its not that but i'm just getting some 20-30% variance when testing on a dummy

so its still impossible to test upgrades

[serene crane]

Yea the numbers are kinda all over the place...

I messure it how fast the same boss at X corruption dies

[topaz schooner]

wait does melee attack speed not scale cascade if you get rid of the melee tag...

wait nvm its coming from rend

[topaz schooner]

yeah...

[serene crane]

By logic If you pick the throw node, it should swap from melee to throw, including scaling from melee attack speed to throw attack speed... but game might be potato and not work by this 😄

[buoyant roost]

What's the idea here as youre main skill to use?

[serene crane]

classic Rend spam slave

[buoyant roost]

how does Cascade gets triggered?

[serene crane]

Rend, 9-13k ward => proccing Cascade, shadows leaving Umbrals => shift to recall Umbrals to massive bleed stacks

Shadow Massacre from Rend

you use Rend and it eats your existing shadows, each consuming 5 mana to use cascade/multishot (if you'd have bow instead)

[buoyant roost]

Ah. Okay. havent played that node yet. So spam rend, shadows cast cascade, on expire cast umbral

[cyan wren]

not worth it trust me. Poison or bleed. No items to scale them.

[serene crane]

Umbrals are left on the ground from expired shadows and you activate them by Shift to fly at nearby enemies

[serene crane]

I mean, did you try Observer or Uberroth?

[cyan wren]

Just try it on dummy if you want to test a build DPS?

if you hit a boss dummy and its hp is barely moving then its bad.

Thats what happens if you try to full Poison/Bleed

[serene crane]

Thats like saying every build that doesnt burst Uberroth in 10seconds is bad

[cyan wren]

Well if u cant make boss dummy go to 0 in at least 3 minutes then yes you have no dmg to kill any uber.

3 minutes is very generous.

[serene crane]

Well and what build with that gear did you try?

[cyan wren]

[buoyant roost]

Do you think the Ruby is really worth it. Also what boaut Valdyr's Chalice?

[serene crane]

poison bee falconer? 😄

[cyan wren]

bleed and poison dots is how many times can u hit in shortest time.

stacking bees is one of the best options to do that.

If this do 0 dps then idk what else.

[serene crane]

Ruby has a bit of attack speed and poison chance so that alone is enough for Deadly Mixture's 20% more bleed damage - also free set completion for Entined ring
Valdyr isnt really good enough to replace Doppel's Shadow resummoning

[serene crane]

And did you at least kill Aberroth with that?

[buoyant roost]

what I'm thinking... since you have the weavers set in your combo, what about some good rolled Weaver's gift

You get pen, and you can get like a t7 physical damage or bleed damage, which is 50% more ffective

imagine weavers gift t7 physical damage, t7 chance to poison or bleed

[serene crane]

Maaaybe with like really great rolls, would need to try it tbh 😄

you'd want t7 attack speed, crit multi, bleed chance and phys pen

What is also worth trying out to get Carrion gloves and instead of crit multi you can get more %dot on things

but its pretty big bleed pen loss, so idk... hard to say 😄 I got few 2LPs around tho, so I might try it out 😄

[cyan wren]

it has no dmg.

[serene crane]

And did you try something more or just dummy and left the character? 😄

Im not expecting DoTs here to have some same scaling to the sky like SD/Rend/Cascade stuff

[cyan wren]

I also tried this meme poison.

the gloves being main enabler.

Had like 1000+ poison stacks and still no dmg.

[topaz schooner]

ward on shadow for defenses? x)

[serene crane]

Yea ofc, Im between 9-13k

[topaz schooner]

t5 on helmet t7 on body?

[serene crane]

both t7 and 2/2 in Rend tree to get like 80 per attack

[topaz schooner]

damn

[serene crane]

but 2x t5 would've been just fine, for SD I just have 2x T7 SD pen and here I could get %bleed chance per sword

[topaz schooner]

i finally corrupted one to max. took forever

[serene crane]

on the SD build I even have it only on body because on helmet I had to get t5 doppel affix for the Dusk stacks so Im usually at like 5-7k

[topaz schooner]

idk how the hell you get omen versions of that

theyre so rare

[serene crane]

Yea its way easier to get SD pen with ward on shift

[topaz schooner]

did they fix this yet

[buoyant roost]

so much to play around Xd I love it and hate it at the same time

[serene crane]

Eh its alright, the gearing honestly isnt that horrible... and you could definitely swap few things around for Ignite Rend

[topaz schooner]

Gravyard prisons is STILL bugged. I cannot

there's a certain layout where the mages just dont spawn

checked every single corner

smdh

dammit

wish i checked this #1486744068347269301 before spending an hour testing it

I got a couple to spawn but no joke it was like 1 in 8 lmfao

i think i narrowed it down to which layouts cannot spawn them, probably that specific tile having problems

[buoyant roost]

Haven't tried Rend build yet. I have the shuriken/bladestorm one with shuriken focus, I have the ignite dancing strikes and the 3rd one is working on the blade detonation. 😄

[topaz schooner]

it also seems to spawn way less cocoons actually

[topaz schooner]

how is crit bs shuriken? It seems decent but the above 50% mana thing is a bit worrying for sustained fights

i havent played it yet tho, i want to eventually

[serene crane]

I like the Shadow Daggers version of Rend I made, its quite simple and everything in 800c just melts, Lagoon doesnt even have a chance to survive into turn 2 😄

[topaz schooner]

one thing I really want to test is how fast it can clear with like 100+ dex + shifting into it + duration stacking for BS

also curious if you convert dex does it still scale the movement speed

[serene crane]

Yea it still works as usual dexterity for skills it just wont give you the dodge bonus you usually get from dex

I had Hurricane with like 65 or so dex and its pretty funny 😄

[topaz schooner]

thats awesome

have you tried momentum yet olvrin

its hilarious

you don't realize how fast its moving until you realize it has a 1 second max duration

but it zooms

[serene crane]

Nah I didnt, I was playing with traversal Smoke so no Shift for me... 😄

[topaz schooner]

Ah fair

the new movement on smoke is kinda bonkers

until you have to go south..

x)

[serene crane]

If I get to it I'd like to see how Slagstorm and Blade Frenzy feel like

You can make some reeeaaaally huge Bladestorms 😄

[pearl forge]

im doing BBC Lm stacking dex and they zoom

i have 158 rn

although well it is guile thx to new neck but oh boi that one does it nuke defenses using brutal+guile

all scalings still work

[topaz schooner]

I need to see this omg

can you post a clip of the speed and clear LOL

[topaz schooner]

have you tried this meme yet

[pearl forge]

i use them for utility so i dont have points for that

want bleed and armor sunder etc

[topaz schooner]

yeah true

[serene crane]

What could be really cool for Bladestorm if there was a node/item that turns the Bladestorm into a permanent minion with perhaps reduced bonuses from affixes to minions; they would essentially be immortal but still could be destroeyed by you If you'd specc into Blade Detonation and had X seconds respawn timer

[pearl forge]

but you can check my stream im at work rn yesterday i was farming up to aberroth

[topaz schooner]

that would be sick

[serene crane]

@buoyant roost I guess corrupting is just that easy

[pearl forge]

just hit

[wary cedar]

Leck meine Eier

[buoyant roost]

omg. you got so lucky XD

that meelee +10 cold though. overpowered

[serene crane]

wdym, perfectly calculated corrupting

it
just
works

[wary cedar]

do you just do those corruptions because you re bored?

[serene crane]

I have another good weapon already and Im loaded on 1h exalted axes and swords... so why not 😄

[wary cedar]

i m also just collecting doppelgaenger set and corrupt it

lmao

just to get something good to flex it on you and then continue to never use it

[serene crane]

Not using what I get is like 99.9999% of my stash

[wary cedar]

i mostly put 'old' gear in my chest if i want to swap back

or just collecting some rare lp3-4

[buoyant roost]

go forge weapon sentinel 😄

[buoyant roost]

Don't you corrupt the set axe?

[serene crane]

Well you corrupt sets to as a starter gear

[wary cedar]

forge weapon also got a corruption affix like the shurikens give

but as soon as i saw that they have a upper limit i dropped all my ambitions doing something with that

margit would approve

"put your foolish ambitions to rest"

"Graceless Traveler. What is thy business with these corruptions?"
"Ahh. Lagoon the Noodle, the twin prodigies, Hatred and Pride, General Argentus, Praetor Rahyeh, Lightning Princess Liath. Wilful losers, all!"

ain't reading all that shit

sry

[serene crane]

aight

[wary cedar]

can you give me tl:dr?

[buoyant roost]

actually some stuff can get preety decent. I got multiple T6/T7s

[serene crane]

mean green sludge one shotted you

[wary cedar]

😭

[serene crane]

Well yea ofc 😄 You still need to get super lucky and moooost likely it wont be better that what you can craft yourself... unless you get some giga good corruption

[wary cedar]

how come i have more low rolled reign of winters than high rolled reign of winters?

[serene crane]

Just turtle them into 4LP, slam with 4x max rolled t7s and slam corruption into max rolls

[wary cedar]

aight

[serene crane]

50:50, you either get it or you dont

[wary cedar]

what do you even want on this ring?

[lapis pumice]

relevant damage stuff prefix/hp+relevant defensive suffix

[bold lagoon]

Question about synchronized strikes: how does the increase to max shadows work? I can’t quite parse the skill description. Does it not stack with the blade dancer class bonus?

Okay, I guess I get it. It gives you four shadows regardless of your max, but won’t let you bypass the max.

[buoyant roost]

I hate rerolling prophecies 🙁 at least they couldve added like a shorctu button on kebyboard

[buoyant roost]

Are you speaking about some node?

[wary cedar]

i think i just got my first ever random red ring drop

random in terms of no prophecies or imprints

[buoyant roost]

i still need to get first mine outside of nemesis tower 😄

[wary cedar]

i got a few already

but only one with LP

and the corrption on this wasnt that good

[buoyant roost]

erm... I mean given what you can get

i think its pretty decent

I get like T1 shit all the time 🙁

[wary cedar]

i play bow

that gives me literally 0 stats

worse than any T1 res

[buoyant roost]

I see. but you can use it on some other char, worst case

[wary cedar]

i wont do other chars this season and next one i m planning on playing multishot

[serene crane]

The multishot dream will never die

[buoyant roost]

Is Architects of the Astral Blood really enough to keep your ward?

[rugged hinge]

I had throwing attack and -mana t7 corrupted t7 strength

[serene crane]

@buoyant roost hah, almost there 😄

[wary cedar]

is this tuff?

random chance for DoT again lol

[serene crane]

[wary cedar]

Entry Points?

[wary cedar]

i can tri

[buoyant roost]

Getting there 😄

And now I have to play bleed Hail of arrows lol

this is an insane bow for that build

[wary cedar]

ah yes

the circle of life

get 3lp gloves - slam - miss one exalted affix - corrupt - removes all affixes

ayo

new circle of life

gimme a minute

what even is increased healing effectisniss

[serene crane]

idk, sounds lame

[wary cedar]

this looks so cooked

[serene crane]

That phys resist looks painful every single time 😄

[wary cedar]

cold res is reduced as well

wouldnt seem so from my current stats there xd

[buoyant roost]

that's from boots?

[wary cedar]

yes

the elusive cold dmg bonus

after 30 lagoons

[serene crane]

Huge damage

[wary cedar]

tooltip still smol

[serene crane]

How big should it be? 🤔

[wary cedar]

at least a 100k

bare minimum

[buoyant roost]

but tooltips could be misleading no

I think the only real test is how fast you kill things 😄 like bosses

[wary cedar]

it's just raw unbuffed dmg

and buffs only comes from passive nodes/uniques

so these buffs are somewhat the same all the time you know

[grave gale]

Been playing bladestorm with chakram for low corruption empowereds cause the clear feels better but how much more sjngle target is blade shield?

[buoyant roost]

but does it count the recurve. I dont possibly see how this can be counted

[wary cedar]

but the dmg a recourve does is still from the tooltip

like of course i do more dmg overall

but the tooltip is the baseline dmg

[serene crane]

Drop few points from Chakram into Shield and check it on some boss

Alright, I saw a bit over 2100 bleed stacks on Heorot

[wary cedar]

6% cold res looks so sad

just because i run out of FP

FP sucks btw

[serene crane]

It do be like that...

[wary cedar]

i only wanted to add two T5 stats

only manages for T5/T1

thats crazy

[lyric smelt]

playing shuriken + bladestorm, just got fire cascade set, should I swap to fire cascade?

[buoyant roost]

make a new char

[lyric smelt]

running normal mono btw

[buoyant roost]

its a different build

[lyric smelt]

yeah ik

bladestorm anw

[buoyant roost]

@serene crane https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/AVaPZndX

the damage is decent tbh. But survivability = shit 😄 Not so big mana issues after all. Foot of the mountain is not needed, I'm just testing. But I dont know how to survive. I cna put hp on armor/boots, but I dont think its enough

Maybe try Flock of Crows in Dive Bomb for Dusk stacks - dodge and glancing blow; Smoke Blades and shadows in Smoke bomb for sure

could get Nomad ring with t7 throw, 2LP isnt crazy rare

[buoyant roost]

Yes thats one that I was thinking. I need more hp as well

[serene crane]

also try to get Blind on hit on the sword

[buoyant roost]

oh what will happen if i corrupt it

will it behave like set item corrupting, or normal hmm

[serene crane]

unless it transforms into completly different item then it still the same set

[buoyant roost]

thats what im afraid xD

[serene crane]

You can always shatter those items unless they remain the same set as before or get Ruined

then just find t7 sword with either free prefix or Remove/Seal it and put Jormun affix there, ezpz

Almost t7, would be some nice

[main cape]

does bladestorm/shurikens have more single target DPS than running dancing strikes with bladestorm/shuriken?

[buoyant roost]

those are the worst. i mean theyre still okay, but

[buoyant roost]

depends whichi build. is it the umbral build?

[main cape]

no

[buoyant roost]

well the umbral one is the most DPS one

afaik

[main cape]

no i was looking at basically the maxroll one vs Trikster

i wasn't aware of the umbral one

[buoyant roost]

ugh hate prophecising 😄 barely got this sword. but Ill try. What do you think on the 2LP mountain boots. Hibrid HP + normal HP?

[tribal burrow]

Does this prophecy even work to get Traitor's Tongue? Does it HAVE to be in the dragon monolith?

[buoyant roost]

@main cape can you link

[main cape]

yea one min

[buoyant roost]

ofc it works. but those are bad

[tribal burrow]

What would be "good"?

[buoyant roost]

well the trick i use is to avoid those monolith quests.

[main cape]

@buoyant roost this is my current build:

https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/BGzbM13d

What would be the best way to get those daggers then? I don't have a single one yet

[serene crane]

Maybe t7 cooldown and t5 hybrid life

[buoyant roost]

and then for the 3rd put the item you want to search.

this will avoid the dungones, arenas and monolith events

[tribal burrow]

I think you linked the wrong one here, but I get what you mean! Thanks, will do ^^

[serene crane]

This and Dragon monoliths are two different monoliths 😄

[buoyant roost]

no its the good one

[tribal burrow]

Reduced chance to have events that are NOT monolith?

[buoyant roost]

yes

[tribal burrow]

That makes them monolith, no?

[buoyant roost]

this will give you only events to kill nemesis, omens, mages, champions, bosses, and some stupid ones like big medusas and those fire golems whatever hte name is

[serene crane]

Get all the purple lenses that isnt the exalted weapon one

[tribal burrow]

I'm sorry for not understanding, you're saying to avoid monolith prophecies, but the focusing lens of time you linked says "100% reduced chance for prophecies to have events that are not monolith". Does that not only show monolith prophecies? Double negative? I think I'm misreading something ^^'

[buoyant roost]

yes 😄 because monolith events does not mean you cannot fullfill propehices in monoliths

monoliths events are timeline boss kills and certain corruption requitements

[tribal burrow]

AH, I see! Right I get it now. That's smart

[buoyant roost]

when you remove both monolith events and non-monolith ones, that leavers only what I wrote

[tribal burrow]

Right right, thanks ^^

[buoyant roost]

cooldwon for the smoke bomb i guess 😄

so wait when I have 60% endurance + 100% glancing blow

that means I only take 95% damage (given my resistances are maxed)

because foot of the mountain makes my whole hp as endurance threshold basically

[serene crane]

Its really good since its your traversal, your silver stack, your damage

right, I forgot about Mountain... ehhh well you wont have any glancing blow then... 😄

[buoyant roost]

man bladestorm tree really sux for the detonation

I have 5 skill unused and really nowhere to put

[buoyant roost]

I will have it because of the shroud.

each stack gives 5% regardles of your dodge

[serene crane]

armor shred and last point in Manufacturing I guess 😄 could get some extra crit on it so you can have less crit on some gear or passives

[buoyant roost]

yes. and I guess I can even do shadow daggers, but meh.

lol...
wtf

[tribal burrow]

One final quick question, can I still only get that dagger to drop in the reign of dragons timeline with the prophecies? or anywhere

[serene crane]

Yea can always take that 😄 they always crit and scale from both meele and throw

[upper vale]

Only specific boss drops can't be acquired from prophecies

[serene crane]

You can get it from any prophecy with unique daggers / 1h weapons, the location doesnt matter

Reign of Dragons is just a bit extra because that timeline has unique/set weapons as echo reward so you can get it from that aswell

[buoyant roost]

one thing to @tribal burrow LP chance dont depend on corruption level

so I woiuld just take any prophecies and run them in the fastest clear you can do

thats when hunting uniques. for exalted, different story

[tribal burrow]

Gotcha. Yeah I'm not CoF lvl 8 yet so can't buy those greater lenses yet. So gotta waste some points first still :P

[buoyant roost]

you can buy all hte lenses I think? you just cant use 3. You need level 9

[serene crane]

get some daggers and try your luck

[buoyant roost]

@serene crane what do you think instead of +4 bladestorm on helm, I get 120% damage while wielding dagger/sword. This would give me I think 120% more damage, because I get both throwing and physical

[serene crane]

Keep the +4 BS, it also gives you 100% throw damage and you're already doing phys damage anyway

[buoyant roost]

but I think when you have "120% increasing damage when weilding dagger/sword" that would give you 120% throwing +120% physical. Or am I wrong @serene crane

[serene crane]

Mnah its not giving you double

[buoyant roost]

waaaat. why is the throwing expection here 🙁 because with a melee damage you get both 120% melee AND 120% physical

I just tested it, throwing does not change lol

or wait wait. it does nvm

you actually get %200 increase @serene crane

because you have both physical and throwing tags

[main cape]

hey @buoyant roost can you take a look at this when you get a chance (for Uber A, looking at trying to use what i have without dancing strikes)

[vital oxide]

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

just sharing for anyone who wants to maxxpush using TriKster's bladestorm shuriken bladedancer, this is what i believe to be the optimal setup! (Tiers in my guide are just what i think should be prioritized - t7, t6, t5, t4 accordingly based on your budget. Reses are fine in lieu of crit strike avoidance (overage). YOU MUST HAVE A MAXRANGE ROLL OMNIS.

Rotation:

1. smoke bomb to travel, gain buffs and silver shroud stack
2. throw out 3 bladestorms in one direction as far as possible for clear. Dancing Strike elsewhere for more clear (shadow cascade will melt everything)

Bossing Rotation:

1. Smoke Bomb
2. Hold Dancing Strike as long as there are no risky boss patterns
3. Self-cast shuriken when boss has risky patterns and you need to stand still

changes compared to his version:

• shadow cascade converted to fully scale off throwing via [Dagger Dance] node, also proccing shadow daggers. Mainly for clear.
• Blade Shield can actually summon and stack many shurikens, but ALL SHURIKENS CAN ONLY HIT ONCE EACH, even with 100% pierce node taken. Since clear is already godly with dagger dance + bladestorm, we want to instead increase single target - we do this by converting pierce chance to critical mult instead via Ricochet node. The ricochets effect itself is irrelevant.

Addressing Mana Issues:

• throwing -10 mana is mandatory due to Ricochet node taken for shuriken
• Artifice of Devastation needs high mana regen implicit
• 1 single mana regen roll on rings helps.
• drop crit mult multipliers on huge idols for CDR+ManaReg enchantment

Should you use Red Ring?

• this build has issues hitting the attribute requirements to make the -10% damage taken work. I personally don't recommend it.

---

good luck to everyone pushing this! Original creator of the build: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wn-FYaoDsrY
even with half-ass gear you should be able to hit 1k corruption easily.
feel free to suggest changes

Need a bigger expert on these things here tbh, I really dont think thats how it even works

[wary cedar]

@serene crane can you do me a favor?

[serene crane]

Depends, which one

[wary cedar]

say "uwu" for me

🥵

[serene crane]

uwu

[wary cedar]

💧

[buoyant roost]

See, here is an example of increased both spell and fire. Both do increase. So if a skill has a physical tag, and a throwing tag, that means both %physical and %throwing are added to the base. So when saying "%increased damage" not specific that means to all.

[serene crane]

Text so long for my shiny smooth pretty brain 😄 but yea I see

[buoyant roost]

that's why for example idols that have % increase with wielding are strong. it's better that to have than throwing for example

[serene crane]

Could be better than the +4BS then, but maybe try with SD nodes first 😄

[upper vale]

if I understood, % increased modifiers apply individually to all tags that have a flat value associated with them?
so if a skill has physical, throwing and area, then %increase damage for area skills will apply to the % to the physical and throwing tags?

[buoyant roost]

I'm not sujre Ive seen increase damage for area 😄 I've seen increased area -> if you meant those then they affect skills that have Area on them

[upper vale]

just example

that any %inc damage will work that way

[oblique mirage]

anybody running shadow rend/cascade, synch strike, smoke bomb and shift have a loot filter i can grab? or at least a good recommend, most i can find aren't really doing what im trying to

[main cape]

any guide for the umbral blade bladestorm build

[cobalt mantle]

Scaling isn't really tag-based, those are just guidelines to help you build. If you have a skill that deals physical throwing damage, then getting 20% increased physical damage will be identical to 20% increased throwing damage or 10% of each, etc.
If you add a bunch of flat cold throwing damage to that skill, like through mourningfrost, the cold damage will still only scale with cold and/or throwing increases, not physical.

[buoyant roost]

tags do matter actually

I mean.... that gives you a guide on what will increase the skill damage.

[shrewd dome]

is anyone using the Flow passives? whats your combo to proc it with dancing strike and shuriken?

[zenith rivet]

Each of the attacks from Dancing Strikes is considered a unique skill therefore you proc and consume Flow just by using Dancing Strikes

[shrewd dome]

oh wait it just procs off any ability we use it looks like, nevermind lol

yeah I see that now

should I use the consumed proc on blade dance or bladestorm?

how are you dealing with the life gain on hit with low life though?

[zenith rivet]

you dont

[shrewd dome]

its still pushing me to almost 40-50% HP

[zenith rivet]

you dont play it

its fine for bossing since hitting 1 target wont get you to high hp but for monos where there are a lot of monsters its impossible to use it

[shrewd dome]

ah okay

[zenith rivet]

i tried 🙁

[shrewd dome]

whats your guys altar loot filter looking like lol

[wary cedar]

the altar i want + any tier of "+ omen capacity"

i already got that

so i dont really need more

[shrewd dome]

ah okay. the +% bonus to suffixes and affixes arent BiS?

[wary cedar]

chase altars drop rare anyway

i will look at them if one drops and decide then

but i only have one special slot in my altar that boosts idols

refractered slot

or whatever it is called

and about only one i dont really care xd

if your altar has a lot of them try looking for t6/7 of boosted stats for idols in those slots ig

[shrewd dome]

I need to start filtering out altars lol I have too many

seems like the ones with not that many refracted slots are trash

[wary cedar]

depends

as i said my altar of choice only has one refracted slot

[buoyant roost]

it's the one that can fit most idosl though

[wary cedar]

just so i can have more trash idols equiped at once

idol grind is really not fun in this game i gotta say

[fading burrow]

guys, is there a universal filter in S4

[serene crane]

Fiat Multipla of altars

[wary cedar]

not using any filter would be very universal, if you would ask me

[shrewd dome]

@fading burrowI use raxx's but edited it

he also has it setup for shuriken bladedancer too

much faster to edit since 95%+ is already one

[fading burrow]

hmm okay i'll check his one

big thanks, chat

[wary cedar]

why does bro got ballista as pfp
mf really is dedicated lmao

[buoyant roost]

you know boys, I just realized Wings of Discord and certian Altars can actually be seriously op lol

[wary cedar]

Wing of Discord Gang

i m still looking for my 2lp one

[serene crane]

I got one napping around in stash

got it from Nemesis

[wary cedar]

these damn lunatics

😡

[upper vale]

what they were saying is that %inc that doesn't specify a type, like physical or throwing, will affect those types individually.
So 20% to physical would be only 20%, but 20% without specifying the type could turn out to be 40% or more if it has more than one type

[buoyant roost]

Man the weaver idol mechanic just sux ass 🙁

[serene crane]

wait wtf I just facetanked t4 Julra's opening oneshot?

[buoyant roost]

I think its by far the worst mechanic in the game

[buoyant roost]

Silver shroud shouldnt work there

[cobalt mantle]

20% without specifying will be 20% in all cases. It not specifying types just allows it to apply to any damage you deal.

[serene crane]

I know... I just... straight up face tanked it like champ

[buoyant roost]

not sure how much damge it does

[wary cedar]

do you have so low dps that you can't kill it before?

[serene crane]

I just like looking at her

[wary cedar]

"her" after i called it "it"

is crazy

perv

[serene crane]

Dont blame me, blame the devs

[wary cedar]

always these damn devs 😡

[shrewd dome]

which monolith do u guys use as your farming/pushing one?

[quartz gust]

It depends on if you need a specific item or which boss / harbinger you prefer to fight

Doesn't really matter otherwise

Or if you want to farm for a better Blessing roll I guess

[shrewd dome]

yeah dont really need anything

[wary cedar]

then why would you farm?

[shrewd dome]

i meant for blessing

always need better gear but nothing specific I guess

[charred pagoda]

if i wanted to try that umbral blade recall uber abby one shot build, is ballista falconer a good build to use to level to reduce the respec cost?

[quartz gust]

If you want to yeah

Leveling up with Umbral Blade would probably be the cheapest way though

[charred pagoda]

ty

[daring blade]

Will Salt the Wound work with the crit damage per bleed stack from that one set? STW is supposed to work only with generic crit damage. The set supposedly provides generic crit damage per bleed, but idk if the fact it happens through an item interaction disqualifies it.

[serene crane]

Yea it works with Jormun set

[hasty fjord]

anyone playing rend? I am trying to do abberoth but mana keeps depleting even while standing in shadows after some time. Any advice?

[serene crane]

+1 shadows on gloves with champion's Mirage sealed affix, some attack speed, Cascade refunding mana and it should be good enough; or play Umbral Blades where Shift recalls the blades to give you instantly full mana

[hasty fjord]

what's champion's mirage?

set item shard?

[deft wadi]

its a champion affix

only drops on items from champions

[serene crane]

There is X rare enemies you can run into and one of them will have "Mirage" under the name and they drop gloves with +1 to max shadows

[hasty fjord]

Ohhh ok. Thank you.

I am trying to kill Abberoth, been going back and force, but I always get one shot'd through the clutter on the screen. Reached 25% and saw that b@stard healing again. I was like nooooo, and I got killed sadly xD

[serene crane]

In weaver tree you can pick some nodes that increases the spawn of champions and chance for them to drop an exalted item, the gloves drop quite often but getting some decent ones to craft might take a bit of luck since you ideally want one with t7 in something to Havoc into melee attack speed

[serene crane]

So whats news on the RogueNews?

[crimson latch]

NOTHIN

[buoyant roost]

me started new char XD

[serene crane]
