cold plaza
#

its poison though, so probably 50% damage loss next patch

wanton hatch
#

Ah

#

When is patch, roughly? we talking weeks or months

cold plaza
#

which is probably still a very good build lol

#

next patch is multiplayer, oct or nov

wanton hatch
#

nice

#

Which build is this

#

Just looked up the item. Necro (or elemental) spells obviously that want ward.

#

but like no health, cuz Conversion

cold plaza
#

my vote for "strongest build that i also want to play" is @tacit hedge 's Soul Feast + Hungering Souls

#

Twisted Heart is pretty well explored. You could go to Lastepochtools.com, go to builds, filter by Twisty

wanton hatch
#

I feel like there's a super strong build within Acolyte's Necrotic Skills

#

some sort of insane damage and leech/sustain mechanic

#

haven't looked into it yet, but just judging from some of the uniques I've collected.

cold plaza
#

its REALLY hard to say no to Death Seal though, which removes all your ward. Fortunately Twisted Heart is still insane with Death Seal, because the rest of the item is so strong.

#

but if you want to actual-factual not use Death Seal, the build better be super strong to compensate for the loss of that skill.

wanton hatch
#

Not seeing any builds on there for "Twisty"

cold plaza
#

I've seen them, and the justification is just "my damage is already insane"

#

... did you really just search for "Twisty"

#

Try searching for "Twisty Boi" instead, see if anything shows up

wanton hatch
#

Wonder about Rogue skellies. Or Necrotic dmg mages.

#

Twisted Heart would be amazing with good sustain.

#

Perhaps immediate life leech and fast cast speed. It would kind of act like PoE's overleech converted to ES.

#

🧠

#

Although 12-16% is a lot of life to lose per cast, so maybe not fast cast speed.
Alternatively, maybe this game has a "low life" build mechanic, because the item specifies "Current Health converted". So if you could hover or float at low life, analogous to a low life Shavronne's build in PoE, where you were not jeopardized by having low life, that could mitigate the downsides of Health -> Ward conversion while taking advantage of the "Current" language.

#

TBD

#

Anyone try this? I have +2 Maelstrom from items, taking out another damage node, I could grab this.

acoustic crag
#

what is legendary potential?
how do i still apply bleed with earthscorcher? i thought it should convert all sources

brittle atlas
#

new 850 stack effective base = 152864
old 850 stack effective base = 30921198

#

for comparison

wanton hatch
brittle atlas
#

Earthscorcher only converts for that specific skill.

wanton hatch
#

Also, the Exotic that you "add to" the Unique Item that had Legendary Potential must be of the same "Base Type", this means Quivers to Quivers, or Two-Handed Axes to Two-Handed Axes...

acoustic crag
acoustic crag
wanton hatch
#

In a way. Deterministic (to a degree) recombs. You keep your base item (the unique) exactly as is, and just smash on X affixes (x = LP potential).

brittle atlas
#

anything that hits can apply bleed, yes

#

so smite would absolutely apply bleeds if you have bleed chance

wanton hatch
#

LP rules as I am aware:
-Must be same base type as unique
-Must be exotic
-Must have 4 affixes!!

acoustic crag
wanton hatch
#

Just a caveat to my comment, as I say "base type". There are many Quivers. Your exotic can be any Quiver. It doesn't have to be the exact same "sub-base type" (i'm making that term up) as the Unique.

Img Example: It can be any Quiver.

wanton hatch
#

You will find 2 things:
-Most (maybe all) Exotic Items have at least 3 affixes already
-They have very high LP - so slapping on that open Affix is generally easy (assuming you're not using too many "Rune of Removals" [Epoch's version of Orb of Annulment in PoE]).

devout glacier
#

there a good way to farm Exalted 1H Swords? or just 1H swords in general

#

really struggling to find a replacement for my near perfect sword

wanton hatch
#

The reason you may want to use Removals/Annulments is because you really like the Exalted mod (or more), and you really want to gamble your RNG to remove an unfavorable mod and then add favorable mods - this runs the risk of removing the Exalted Mod of course, which would make the item no longer Exalted.

wanton hatch
devout glacier
#

lol yes very much so

#

this is what i'm trying to replace in my bleed build

#

it can be better but quite hard to even find something comparable

wanton hatch
#

🙂 I'm new but I feel there's very much no shortage of Exalted [Item] nodes in empowered monos. I would try to hunt those if I were you. Stretch the mono out. Find beacons.

acoustic crag
#

also are these monos infinite? or i will hit maximum eventually?
so far i see i cant revisit old maps

safe harness
#

There’s an edge

#

Where you have to fight a boss

Which resets the web

acoustic crag

#

Hi guys, does anyone have a good bow build to recommend? Been having fun with the hammer crit paladin. But thinking to try bows

wanton hatch
#

and can scale into "BowMage" (unique dependent, but easily farmable unique(s)).

#

Look up: Lizard's Bowmage. I believe it has a leveling section.

kind fox
#

anyone have an idea of why I keep seeing the same 3 bows to gamble? Recurve, imperial and salvaged...trying to gamble long bows for Drelkor's

devout glacier
kind fox
#

oh damn ok, thank you... wasted 20k lol

devout glacier
#

meaning if your base type you want requires lvl 40+ (Ex. katanas drop at lvl 70+) it wont show

devout glacier
kind fox
#

ok so is there a way to target Drelkor's Compass or is it just RNG

devout glacier
#

so you can try to get bows from soulfire bastion gambling

kind fox
#

ok I will need to look that up, fairly new to the game, 60 hours but a majority of those hours were from a while ago

devout glacier
#

OR farm Unique/Set bow echos from "Fall of the Outcasts" timeline

kind fox
#

ahh ok, that one I know lol

devout glacier
#

BUT id not do the timeline thing before being able to easily farm empowered monos as the chances for the nodes to spawn are far more rare (but not impossible... however even in empowered monos with 100 corruption id say its like a 1/20+ chance if not more to get one(guessing on the odds here based on experience))

kind fox
#

ok cool, thanks for the info

devout glacier
#

np 🙂 GL

paper elm
#

Yesterday I logged out after beating lagon and getting here, and today when I logged in instead of being there I was in end of time and don't remember how to get to that place. Any tips on getting back there?

amber notch
#

You might have to beat lagon again

desert tree
#

You need to be in the town and go north

amber notch
#

Oh yeah the boat should be there

#

Go to the town where you got the lagon quest

desert tree
amber notch
#

Yeah you're right

paper elm
#

Oh yea that worked

#

I went to lagon isle and used town portal

#

and then got back there

#

thank you 💙

desert tree
#

👌

icy snow
#

aright big brain build crafters

#

can this build output enough damage

minor kindle
vale thistle
#

The only synergy I see there is Maelstrom + Warcry.. which is good for levelling through the campaign I guess? The rest of this seems completely random, like taking a huge number of melee passives when you only have Tempest Strike and Fury Leap (and both of them have virtually zero damage multipliers allocated).

icy snow
wary turret
#

Anyone have a fun build that includes a lootfiler? I wanna try HC 😂

wanton hatch
#

Is Boardman's Set rare / good build?

Just looking in my stash tabs for rare sets/uniques, to possibly make my next build around. I have 2 of the 3 set pieces

dense remnant
#

does rune of ascendance care about character and/or zone and/or item used on level at all?

urban horizon
#

It does not

dense remnant
#

tyty

finite drift
#

how can it be that sorc is so much higher on ladder than any other class?

north mist
#

Which is not gonna be a thing when multiplayer is introduced, as theyll have servers that keep track

wary shadow
#

Is it necessary to cap resistances for empowered monos? or 100% crit avoidance, high hp and armour with decent enough but not capped res will be enough (and like 30% block too)

white pollen
#

if you have good damage and mobility, they're less necessary

#

but at least aim for like 40-50+

#

I've done emp age of winter with 0% cold res and like 1.9k hp and didn't die once

wary shadow
#

ah they're not that bad I'm wondering if being 70-71 will make much of a difference

#

good to know tyty

white pollen
#

actually I died like once or twice but that was because I tanked a line of cold shots

twilit bough
#

how does farming timeline related unique farming work regarding empowered monos? I need to farm black sun for atrophy, but on empowered it says ill fight orybos, not rahyeh.

north mist
#

You dont have to do the quest echos at the side either, you just do random things in the web until you hit 800 stability and then you can fight rahyeh

twilit bough
#

ahh, so the guy from the +corruption node is oryboss?

#

Thanks, I guess reading has advantages 😄

knotty hull
#

hello

#

the only way to increase minion damage is ''+x% minion damage''?

#

because i could not find ''added spell minion damage'' on affixes.

brittle atlas
#

It depends on the minion, but there are various other minion specific affixes

balmy current
brittle atlas
#

Minion spell damage is quite rare though

#

Flat damage, that is

knotty hull
#

yes

brittle atlas
#

Acolyte has flat minion spell damage as an implicit on one of their helmets

#

Otherwise for items I think you’re limited to uniques basically

knotty hull
#

there is a set item

wanton hatch
knotty hull
balmy current
#

No, that's just Skellies, not Skellie Mages.

#

'Cause it refers to Summon Skellies

knotty hull
#

yes

balmy current
#

not Summon Skellie Mages

knotty hull
#

this set might be the best

wanton hatch
#

Can you duplicate affixes onto Legendary Uniques? e.g. if a Unique boot already has Movement Speed, can I Exotic MS onto the boot

wanton hatch
#

Damn these boots would be sick. They have Health Regen per sec t5 tho. might Annul. Is health per second kind of a trash mod if your build doesn't spec into effectiveness?

I kinda feel like it's trash

#

12 HP second -_-

brittle atlas
#

Effectiveness doesn’t scale regen

#

But there is increased health regen

wanton hatch
#

So pretty bad mod unless you're scaling it

brittle atlas
#

Regen itself is decent for some builds

#

Mostly stuff that can’t leech and doesn’t want to build low life ward

#

Vessel of Strife is quite good

north mist
wanton hatch
#

I'm hesitating to annul for that very reason

#

Plus I have a 66% chance to remove 1 of the mods I like

brittle atlas
#

Yeah, removals are very risky

#

They tend to use a lot of potential too

wanton hatch
#

Was trying to make the boots to wear though, not to LP

north mist
wanton hatch
#

lol

#

yeah ...rip

brittle atlas
#

Yeah, removals for me are always last resort, I’d prefer to not use them generally

wanton hatch
#

I feel like most builds BiS items are 2LP+ uniques with really good/lucky exotic mods

brittle atlas
#

It depends, some uniques have bad bases

wanton hatch
#

good point. base in this game is so important

brittle atlas
#

And the good bases with good stat efficiency tend to be rare to find with LP

#

If you end up using bad bases you could be losing lots of suffix slots worth of resists, on top of the likely loss of HP from using uniques in general

wanton hatch
#

Eterra's Path. Kinda feel like this could be good for Dot Bear

brittle atlas
#

It’s a good option while leveling, potentially OK if you want to drop vine nodes with a lot of LP, but you lose a lot of suffix stats to use them

wanton hatch
#

I should just work to cap crit avoidance on my build honestly. If something is going to rip me right now it'll be a crit

brittle atlas
#

And because cold dot likes to attribute stack you’re stuck between choosing attribute + ms or ms + hybrid health on a 2LP pair

wanton hatch
#

38%. my Attunement is trash.

#

if I hit 60 Attunement (crit avoidance), what do people use to get crit capped. I think I would need Crit avoid on at 2 pieces of gear.

brittle atlas
#

I’d go for 65 attunement

#

Then you can cap off a single suffix on a ring

wanton hatch
#

Nice

#

that's good min-max.

#

Tempted to annul!!!!

brittle atlas
#

Otherwise, reign of dragons crit avoidance blessing is the most common way to cap

wanton hatch
#

dat Attunement looking sexy. Trying to also get LP Atrophy to try and hit Attunement on gloves. That'd be very nice.

brittle atlas
#

What tiers are the other affixes

wanton hatch
#

5 and 4

brittle atlas
#

Hmmm

wanton hatch
#

7 (attune)

#

7, 5, 4, top to bottom

brittle atlas
#

Unlucky

#

Hard to seal or chaos

#

And you’re unlikely to chaos into hybrid hp anyways

wanton hatch
#

I would probably roll MS in the prefix

#

Might annul, and not cry if I lose the Crit Avoid, cuz long term I'd grab it on ring anyway

brittle atlas
#

Yeah, MS is required on every pair of boots IMO

wanton hatch
#

same

#

Bear slow even in Rampage w/o MS on boots. tried it. felt bad. Especially if you consider HC and the need to avoid telegraphed slams.

brittle atlas
#

May as well yolo the annul since you don’t care about losing the stats other than attunement

#

Then slam t5 movement speed and hopefully at least T3 hybrid hp

wanton hatch
#

And I dont think I plan on keeping it for a unique boot for this build

#

I annuled both suffixes.

#

15 LP LOL

#

giving this to Charsi

tribal dagger
#

heya, anywhere i can find guides that dumb down a bit the things to look out for when starting the game? things to look out for and general build ideas?

wanton hatch
#

It even has a search box where you can search mechanics or keywords that you come across.

tribal dagger
#

welll thats explaining mechanics individually

wanton hatch
#

Also, Hold down Alt over an item to see the Affix Tiers and Ranges.
Hold down Alt + Ctrl to get very detailed information and mechanics about the Affixes.

tribal dagger
#

im looking for a more outside "heres how to level up your character and gear up viabliy so youll be ready for endgame-ish"

north mist
#

You dont need a full out build guide for this game, sure you can search for one, but its far from required

#

Since you can just respecc almost everything later anyway, besides class and mastery

tribal dagger
#

i dunno man atm im just senslesly spending point everywhere lol

wanton hatch
tribal dagger
#

rouge i think

hollow socket
wanton hatch
#

spells/melee/bow/shapeshift etc

tribal dagger
#

i like bows

wanton hatch
#

Okay, I tried a fun build. Look up "IRL Lizard Bow Mage". It's end game and requires a unique (luckily it's a VERY easy to farm unique)

tribal dagger
#

but umbral blades do be making me raise some eyebrows

brittle atlas
#

Lizard IRL has a leveling guide for bow mage too iirc

wanton hatch
#

But he levels with a fun and powerful mechanic: Flurry , that procs Multishot every few hits. And you can shotgun projectiles in this game. So point blank on rares and bosses does A LOT of damage.

north mist
#

Detonating arrow is generally better than the flurry variant

brittle atlas
#

Only certain skills can shotgun- the general rule is things don’t shotgun

wanton hatch
#

But doesnt multishot

brittle atlas
#

Only with a specific node

tribal dagger
#

is it okay to spend points in one line tho lol

brittle atlas
#

That enables it to

wanton hatch
#

Interesting. Mine was shotgunning so I guess i had that node

tribal dagger
#

or spending them equally is better when starting

brittle atlas
#

Generally I’d say fill out passives entirely. If a point is worth taking it’s often worth taking entirely

balmy current
# wanton hatch But doesnt multishot

Stuff only shotguns if the projectiles are fired sequentially. If they're fired all at once they won't (unless it specifies that they will shotgun).

brittle atlas
#

Unless you’re just taking it as a prerequisite

north mist
tribal dagger
#

so basically,

#

"jump in, kill stuff, figure out stuff, this game doesn't make you regret it later like other games do"

#

did i get that right?

balmy current
#

Pretty much

north mist
#

Yep, the only things you cant change are your mastery and your class

balmy current
#

The only thing you can't respec is the mastery

north mist
#

Ie if you pick rogue and marksman you cant swap to bladedancer

tribal dagger
#

oh

#

which of them is better?

balmy current
#

Everything else is respec-able for either gold or some time re-levelling skills

north mist
#

Neither, theyre different

balmy current
#

Both

#

Depends what you like

tribal dagger
#

and can you respec the points you allocate in the mastery tho?

north mist
#

yes, and you can put points into the other masteries tree too, up till the halfway point

tribal dagger
#

oh oke

#

i haven't even unlocked the second mastery yet i believe

#

i'm just a careful planner

balmy current
#

You only get to unlock 1 mastery.

tribal dagger
#

some games that i just messed around with gave me PTSD in the end game

balmy current
#

Yeah, it's not PoE

tribal dagger
north mist
#

Those are typically referred to as the "class tree" and the "mastery tree"

tribal dagger
#

say rogue and marksman as secondary?

#

ohhh

balmy current
#

But there's 1 mastery quest to choose one & from that point you're able to put points in the other masteries up to the 1/2 way point

tribal dagger
#

rogue(class)/marksman(mastery) basically?

#

man getting into new games is confusing

#

tho i can tell its really well planned and very nicely executed

#

well i guess ill just dive in and figure it out until the next souls-borne release

#

btw is there any point to picking up stuff that are unique rare if you ain't gonna use them?

balmy current
#

You might use them later

wanton hatch
#

You'll find that you can upgrade your gear very conveniently with the Forge mechanic "F" key. You need a Shard (you'll see a lot dropping) of that particular affix to upgrade it.

You can also buy from the vendor a random number of "Rune of Shattering" (randomly offers 1-4), resets every 10 minutes. You can use the Rune of Shattering on a magic or rare item to have a chance to get those affix shards back from the destroyed item.

#

very early on, rune of shatterings might be more expensive than necessary to buy, because shards drop frequently, unless you wanted to get a shard for an uncommon affix (which isn't necessary early).

#

Game will drop you plenty of health/damage/resistance shards.

wanton hatch
#

Upgraded some gear to get like +300 HP and Attunement, but I had to juggle my Res. Most are capped but Poison is 21%. I'm running empowered echos just 100 corrupiton right now. Think I'll get melted w/ that low Poison Res? Kinda scurred.

cunning crow
#

If I am farming for a specific boss unique, will the blessing of the appropriate item type (gloves, etc) improve the odds of getting it to drop?

#

Specifically, I am looking for the Frostbite Shackes from Blood, Frost, and Death - will the Grip of the Lance (15-30% increased gloves drop rate) indirectly help it to drop?

native sail
cunning crow
#

Wonderful, thank you!

wanton hatch
#

This looks sick. too bad bear dot doesnt hit too often

native sail
#

Bear DoT does hit often on single target, which is what that thing is for

buoyant sinew
#

it's still extremely good for cold dot bear yeah

#

swipe stacks it up just fine

brittle atlas
#

yep

#

swipe will give you high uptime on bosses

#

while clearing you might struggle to build or maintain stacks

#

but don't really need the bonuses then

wanton hatch
#

True. Sounds awesome

#

cant wait to try it. gotta fix my res first

#

Frostbite on hit is probably meh? 35 dmg over 4 seconds. Although I do scale Cold/Ele and DoT pretty hard.

brittle atlas
#

it's not great

#

idol-wise, I'm looking for 1x3s with

prefixes:
DoT while transformed
DoT
Spell damage while transformed

suffixes:
Increased cold/lightning damage
Aspect of the boar effect

#

could also look for 3x1s with % health and cold damage or crit avoid/ele res depending on what you need

wanton hatch
#

nice

#

it's though. idols are hard to minmax

brittle atlas
#

yeah, you need to see a lot of them to finally see what you want

#

and even then it could roll low

wanton hatch
#

Yup, and cant forge

#

This seems great for HC. miss out on a lot of dmg and utility though...

brittle atlas
#

Yeah, really good neck if you can fit it in

wanton hatch
#

my current is pretty sweet though.

brittle atlas
#

it notably isn't a true cheat death though, so depending on build it can be a bit redundant

wanton hatch
#

Good Endurance Threshold. Could replace my End Thresh Blessing.

wanton hatch
#

chances of me getting 1-shot are likely slim. But a 2-3 shot is only a matter of time.

brittle atlas
#

it's mostly used in arena

#

pretty common on stuff like EQ werebear

uneven wagon
#

Any way to reset or restart quest progress for the main quest? My Sanity in the Darkness quest says I'm missing the last phylactery even though my quest log says the last imperial quest is completed.

#

This is the second time this has happened and I don't feel like leveling another character if it's just going to happen again

wanton hatch
#

Hopefully someon can help you. hopefully it's just a bug and there's a workaround

brittle atlas
#

Gone back to the zone for last imperial to check if it's actually done? I've not encountered that specific issue before, but plenty of times where quest log progress/steps don't match up with actual completion

uneven wagon
#

I went through the zone and killed the 3 soul vessels, but the skeleton guy blocking the path is gone for good

brittle atlas
#

hmmm

uneven wagon
#

I posted on the forums this morning, but they haven't responded yet: https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/quest-sanity-in-the-darkness-bugged-missing-phylactery/50506

Last Epoch Forums

I think the Sanity in the Darkness quest is bugged. I completed the Last Imperial but the gate is still up in town and I’m unable to proceed. Seems like the same issue as was previously posted here: Quest: Sanity In The Darkness - Missing Last Imperial's Phylactery Player.log (1.2 MB) Player-prev.log (18.7 KB) This is also the second time it ...

wanton hatch
#

@brittle atlas BRO! lol I just ripped...

#

But guess what I literally just equipped. 🤓

#

Winged Carrions or something were doing insane multi-hit damage to me. Little fire-looking explosions. It would have ripped me but my amulet proc'd. That's incredibly lucky timing. I want to know what the heck was doing all that damage though. Way overtuned. Not even any Inc Dmg mods on my timeline atm

Does this make mana strike stop scaling with melee specific stuff?

PepeM perfect

solar moss
#

is there any talk of making the bosses in the story well not just one shot everything?

#

like admiral something or other here has a AOE the size of the whole screen thats a machine gun of lightning that 2 taps and a aoe he can spawn under you that is a 1 shot even with some resists

paper elm
#

I didn't have any problems with it, how much lightning res do you have?

solar moss
#

40% and i have basicly permanent bone armour

#

500 hp, and like 9 minions tanking for me

#

dont get me wrong i beat him, but its mostly due to he dosent use his insta kill AOE on me, just my minions

brittle atlas
#

is that 500 hp your base hp or do you have much vit/increased health/flat health crafted?

solar moss
#

thats the number in the circle in the bottom left

brittle atlas
#

I've personally never had any particular issues with the campaign bosses tbh

#

even majasa is pretty doable with 0% resists across the board

are there speedy explosion builds?

are some blessings rarer than other ? I've ran like 10 times the black sun monolith now and haven't seen one 'shred void res' blessing :/

soft monolith

i've now ran 12 lol, still no void shred blessing

#

ok but i just got a bastion of honor lol so it was worth it ^^

wanton hatch
#

What does "rare" mean for boss-specific drops? Such as Twisted Heart. like 1%? 10%?

vapid aspen
#

usually 5-15 iirc

wanton hatch
#

reasonable

wanton hatch
#

Gorgons ain't playing

is that poison dmg

molten knoll
#

Is bleed separate from stuff like fire and phys damage? Can my skeletons be fire skeletons while having bleed from doublet of onos tull or is that just a dumb idea

desert tree
#

They can

molten knoll
#

oh sick thanks!

wanton hatch
#

Can't find anywhere that lists the Maximum Attack Speed? Trying to figure out how important more points into Fury Strikes are, as I scale IAS with Aspect of the Shark and Berserker. TY

warm yew
#

If there is one, I don't know that we've found it yet. It's insanely high

knotty hull
#

does anyone know if monsters have armor? or they just have the DR

warm yew
#

I know on any build I take Berserker on, I take all the points in Fury Strikes.

#

Most enemies don't have any armor at base - keep in mind that shred can take that number negative, though.

knotty hull
#

yes

brittle atlas
wanton hatch
#

Oh I see....

#

It caps the IAS from Berserker buff, to 20%. So that's only 4 stacks.

brittle atlas
#

yeah

wanton hatch
#

but I have 12 stacks potential. So I really should boost that.

brittle atlas
#

yeah, with max points you can get 60% total from berserk, which is pretty decent

wanton hatch
#

I'd have to spec 2 out of Frost Claw (100% inc cold dmg total). Probably worth though

#

Actually. probably not. I thought it could help Throne of Ambition but it has a 1sec CD

brittle atlas
#

yeah, throne should be easy enough to max even with no attack speed

#

attack speed is really only for more maelstrom stacks on single target

#

I don't remember if I'd compared berserk to other stuff in the warcry tree yet tho

#

it's definitely tight on points

wanton hatch
#

Cleanse and Frost Claw are really the only options

#

It's really just a matter of trial and error. climbing to maintain max stacks on bosses is probably ideal. I suspect it would be 1 more point, if even any.

#

(That's with +2 Warcry, which I have). without it, it's very, very tight.

warm yew
#

I'm a huge fan of it - though I don't use Frost Warcry myself. I felt like spell damage from it wasn't needed, and while the Increased Cold Damage behind it was nice, it was better to get other Multipliers (like attack speed)

wanton hatch
#

If you went that route, of completely abandoning Frost Cry and the damage nodes behind it.

warm yew
#

Aye - that's exactly what I did.

#

Used it more for boss-melting swipes.

wanton hatch
#

Does Maelstrom have a cap actually?...

#

of stacks

warm yew
#

Probably some ridiculous 3-or-4 digit number

#

I've personally seen up to 25 at once, on my bear.

wanton hatch
#

Ok, I thought it was 16 or something for a while. So how many stacks do you have on bosses, with all that IAS

#

Nice.

#

I might just go spam the DUmmy and see how many stacks i have

I'm around 20-25 on bosses on my setup, which has very little attack speed

wanton hatch
#

Why is this not in high demand for DoT bear. I haven't heard it mentioned before? -5% res, stacking, lasting 4 seconds. 60% less effective on bosses, but still. Could probably slap ~3-4 stacks on a boss...

brittle atlas
#

it's the best blessing from that timeline imo

wanton hatch
#

same, although I really need res ATM

brittle atlas
#

you either want that or armor % imo

wanton hatch
#

yeah, makes sense

wanton hatch
brittle atlas
#

I have double CDR on helmet

wanton hatch
#

ah right

brittle atlas
#

so my roar CD is quite low

#

like 3.5 seconds or so I think?

wanton hatch
#

I had a helm like that, but crap suffix. so I use this now

#

Needed attunement and hp. health regen is a RIP obviously

#

This was mine. I miss the CDR.

brittle atlas
#

Mine is T7 CDR while transformed, T5 CDR, T5 % health, T5 % armor, with t2 flat armor sealed I think?

#

on the strength base

#

pretty nuts

wanton hatch
#

yeah that's nice

pure ridge
#

how much does corruption increase stability rewards?

brittle atlas
#

up to double base stability

#

which I think is around 250-300 ish corruption?

pure ridge
#

eesh thats not very much, thanks for the info tho

brittle atlas
#

it means you can get boss loops done in about 20 minutes

#

far out nodes end up giving about 90 base

#

plus bonus stability

outer jay
#

What would be the easiest character to get to end game with?

pure ridge
#

I'm going warpath and taking advantage of rapid hit mechanics, like shred on hit, time rot on hit, future strike on hit. stack some armour, get some health on melee hit, frailty on hit, and youll be very tanky (i could tank lv 90 bosses at lv 75). the gearing is easy. the problem is that i dont think ill get to uber late game... i need to sit on the enemy todo damage and i dont think UBER late game bosses will allow that

outer jay
#

that sounds really nice compared to when I tried to level rogue lmao

brittle atlas
#

sentinel and druid are both pretty easy

#

since they get a ton of basic defenses covered via passives

#

so even if you're not sure how to prioritize defenses on gear you'll have a lot done for you

wide sentinel

#

What does this line in the explanation of corruption mean?

increases the rarity of guaranteed echo rewards in empowered timelines.

#

Does it mean that the general item rarity increase to items doesn't apply to these rewards?

Heya, i've just hit lvl 50 on my spellsblade and i wanted to go farm for a Exsanguinous.

Would anyone know the best way for me to go about doing so?
It's my first character but i'm not new to arpg games 🙂

sharp quartz
#

Its a world drop so there isnt really a specific way to farm for it - at least not early game... Once you get to monoliths then you can farm the specific monolith timeline Blood, Frost, and Death (" higher chance for Unique or Set Body Armour" echos). You can also try your luck using a Rune of Ascendance to magically and randomnly transform a normal chest into a unique chest but you probably dont have any of those specific runes yet... So for now I'd say just play and hope.

blissful maple

Will do and thank you!

Does anyone think Smoldering Lithracs do too much damage? Their retaliation Explosive Ground mechanic is lethal for melee.

seems like an oversight that esc would be completely gone

wanton hatch
#

Is there a good efficiency range for Corruption, particularly on HC? something that will increase rewards and Stability by a percentage of the default empowered mono, but doesn't significantly increase the 1-2 shot potential for the majority of builds?

#

I'm thinking something like.... 150-180 corruption maybe

dense remnant
#

300 corruption is the number to aim for

wanton hatch
#

on HC?

dense remnant
#

hc isnt different to sc

wanton hatch
#

isn't that 150% MORE dmg?

#

sure it is. on HC you don't have room for error to die.

dense remnant
#

so dont die

wanton hatch
#

5head.

dense remnant
#

you go to 300 corruption because at 300 corruption you have all the loot drops possible, and its generally seen as the most efficient corruption to farm at for that reason

#

if you want to be safer, then sure, farm less efficiently at lower corruptions

#

but at that point you should be questioning why your build isn't able to go to 300

wanton hatch
dense remnant
#

yes, and corruption also increases item rarity/drop rate

amber notch
#

Only a few uniques right?

dense remnant
#

yes

wanton hatch
#

Is Exotic within the pool of rarities?

#

or is it its own thing

dense remnant
#

and imo if you're playing hc and viewing it as 'i have to do less content than sc' then id just, not play hc yet

wanton hatch
dense remnant
#

playing at less than 300 corruption is less content

wanton hatch
#

really?

dense remnant
#

yes, becuase you cant get every item

wanton hatch
#

meh.

dense remnant
#

its the equivalent of sticking to t12 maps or something

#

if you're never gonna go beyond it, then you're missing out on stuff in the game

wanton hatch
#

I would view the comparison as running T16 maps vs super juiced T16 maps.

dense remnant
#

in which case you arent learning everything

wanton hatch
#

Corruption is really just a map juicing mechanic

dense remnant
#

which means you'll always be in a bad spot when playing hc

wanton hatch
dense remnant
#

i pu like, 200-300 hours into it in sc, then the last 700 have mostly been hc

wanton hatch
#

Nice

#

I think LE has HC in a pretty nice spot

#

certainly seems well balanced

dense remnant
#

current character is back to sc though, cus i wanna just try a bunch of stuff before multiplayer releases

#

but also i havent died on i while barely paying attention to levelling so, lol

#

id definiely recommend no worrying about dying if you havent done dungeons as well

#

i did t1-t4 for arbor and bastion blind on a hc character, and it was fun, but was terrible for learning them

#

better to just learn them quicker by getting more atemps in

#

than overgearing to be as tanky as possible, and having no idea whats happening lmao

wanton hatch
#

def. this game is clear enough to be able to do stuff blind. since the bosses telegraph etc. I heard the Sanctum boss does a 1-shot thing though where you need to time shift. So stuff like that is dangerous if blind

dense remnant
#

the games clear enough blind ouside of dungeon bosses

wanton hatch
#

def. my first char was blind

dense remnant
#

one sho telegraphs arent really a thing in last epoch, they're clearly trying to make it a thing, but theres too much overlap to trust stuff

#

and it requires having already seen the fights, to know relevant info (i.e. if it's intended you dodge literally everything, or if you are expected to tank 1 or 2)

#

im guessing we'll get some more clarity in the fights on specifically what is a one shot mechanic

#

but until you feel able to see a new telegraph and be able to knwo for sure if it'll kill you or not, blind progress on hc is terrifying and not a good way to learn the content

#

(until we have multipalyer and races ofc, cus then theres a reason to do it)

wanton hatch
#

I did every campaign boss blind and then the first couple monos blind. Pretty easy. But I've found in monos, it can get very cluttered. between my big bear player model, dead corpses, etc. There comes a time when you can no longer see the upcoming ground indicators.

dense remnant
#

t4 dungeon bosses>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>dungeon bosses >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> mono bosses >>>>> campaign bosses

#

thats about right

cold plaza
#

I feel like this analysis is lacking

dense remnant
#

also ruins of welryn is somewhere between dungeon bosses and mono bosses

#

or above dungeon bosses actually

#

t3 is probably easier

woven fulcrum
outer jay
#

stupid question but should I have a filter for doing the story cause I feel like I should

sharp quartz
#

Not required... some people like to go crazy, but honestly while learning the game you dont need to get specific for loot filtering. you can always add it later when you begin to realise that things are dropping that your chars are too high to use. (i.e. they arent useful anymore) or when you really want a specific item/affix or want something for crafting.

#

Being overzealous with loot filtering can cause you to miss things that could actually be useful for crafting or other chars or be so strict that the likelyhood of the item dropping to match the filter criteria would require lotto level luck (or worse)

#

typically a simple filter to hide white & blue items is usually all you need during the campaign levels.

Yip.. you need to check all tabids & categoryids and make sure they are valid, in sequence without duplicates and tabids linked to valid categoryids. (all tends to be near the end of the file). Doing the in-game workaround doesnt fix this specifically so while some do have success in getting their tabs back, the potential for the problem to happen again is high if you dont do the manual file edit route.

is there a limit for cast speed?

#

the amount of cast speed im getting with skeletal mages is insane

Dont think there is a hard limit for things like that... obviously tho, there will be a practical limit depending on the class, skills and gear used.. Pretty much the same for melee attack speed...

knotty hull

did you play D3? there was something called breakpoints

Yeah i guess we can't, if only there was a second slot for keybinds in the "mouse" section :/

pliant harbor
#

@sharp quartz Well, regain tab to those missing items. I think I am going to go back in there and do indexing as the numbers order is all over the place. Yes, I realize this will imply for each item database too

#

One way around is to move them to a different tab in the game while I index the folder

sharp quartz
#

Try not to edit the items linked to tabs.. that could be unneccessary as well as timeconsuming. I would simply make sure that the tabs exist that any item could reference..

pliant harbor
#

That's what I am saying, I make the tabs empty before doing that

#

So all I have to deal with are tabs and no items. Looks like I am buying new tabs

sharp quartz
#

Normally you dont need to do that... its usually just making sure the ones there are correct...

#

but it all depends on how messed up it is and what you did in-game, like deleting tabs or categories

pliant harbor
#

Normally, I would agree, but the glitch happened twice under 24 hours and I didn't move or create new tabs

#

Also rename the TAB to SpellB1 and SpellB2. Maybe the space was messing around with game reading the order. Who knows, but removing any chances

Good luck... and be sure to backup first.

Hi there lovely people. quick question about shattering: the ingame guide says that upon shattering an item, each affix produces 1-X crafting shards, where X is the tier of the affix on the item. However, sometimes 0 shards from a particular affix drop for me, which is in direct contradiction of what the Guide says. Is this a known issue, or am I reading it incorrectly?

amber notch
#

It's probably wrong

arctic geyser
#

hi guys how do i download a pastebin loot filter

amber notch

Just copy it and import it in shift+F

thanks man

hollow socket
#

So you can have an item with 4 mods and get 4 shards for one of the mods with 0 of the others.

loud harbor
#

It says "The number of Shards created is random for each affix, [...] and 1 at minimum."

#

This wording suggest that for each affix 1 is the minimum.

barren plank
#

Do nodes that increase a skill's damage over time affect ignites it inflicts? I assume not, since there's specific modifiers for that, but I'm kinda hoping it does anyway.

brittle atlas
#

yes

#

ailments and subskills will inherit modifiers from the parent skill, as long as those modifiers are relevant to the ailment

#

ie ignite won't inherit a skills "more damage with hits" modifiers because ignite doesn't hit

barren plank
#

ah, so I am not screwed.

north mist
#

What was unintuitive for me was that "X deals more damage" actually applies to the ignites inflicted by X skill

#

But like arborus said, if it says "X deals more damage with hits" then it doesnt apply to the ignite

hollow socket
#

Also applies to e.g. Sorcerer's "preparation".

#

A very notable example for this is when I tried a build using Void Cleave and Shield Bash.

#

Thanks to "Fresh from the Forge" on Forge Guard's tree, I had to Void Cleave --> Shield Bash within less than 4 seconds of it --> Void Cleave within 4 seconds of the Shield Bash to receive buffs from "Kindling", but no sooner than 4 seconds after the last Void Cleave to receive "Fresh from the Forge" again.

#

It was manageable because VC happens to have 4 seconds of cooldown, but there's more skills with such timed buffs like e.g. swipe which really add a lot of management to your skill timings.

No, but you can just not do them. In the lower left of the map screen, it shows how many of the 15 passive points and 8 idol unlocks you've gotten so far. Just get those done. There are extra quests that give additional unlocks, but once you've gotten the 15 and 8, you can skip them if you want to.

Hi I have a question, this build needs this "Burial Mask" I think for the +2 to death seal which would be real nice:

#

but i just got these 2

#

Im a little confused, so these are both burial masks but not the burial masks I need?

#

Is there any way to reroll for the +2 to death seal

#

or do i need a different piece

brittle atlas
#

Burial Mask is the base item, it can have any random affixes on it

#

Being a Burial Mask only impacts the implicit stats, in its case, 89 armor and the increased 30-60% spell damage roll

nocturne notch
#

Ohh

#

Is there any way to reroll the +2 death seal

#

onto these 2 items I have?

#

Or am I better off leaving them

brittle atlas
#

You would have an extremely small chance of hitting it via glyph of chaos, but the rest of the item would still be pretty bad without other relevant affixes

nocturne notch
#

Ah okay got it!!

#

Thanks

#

Does it work the same way for uniques?

brittle atlas
#

You’d be best off looking for a helmet that already has a couple or more of the affixes you’re looking for and trying to finish them into your ideal item. In the case of the death seal affix, you’re most likely looking for a helmet with an open prefix slot to craft it yourself, as it appearing naturally is pretty rare

nocturne notch
#

I want this specific Unique wand, Would I have to farm it for better stats or once I have it I have it

brittle atlas
#

Uniques are always the same roll ranges and base.

nocturne notch
#

ok

brittle atlas
#

You’d need to find the shards to do so, but yeah

nocturne notch
#

Okay got it

#

Thank youuu

#

Dont have it yet but ill keep and eye out

brittle atlas
#

If you find a helmet with the death seal affix that is otherwise mediocre you can use runes of removal or runes of shattering to gather them

#

Probably want to use removals to make sure you get all the shards possible

nocturne notch
#

Thank you

#

I think ill make a loot filter to tell me when I get affixes I want to use removals on

#

So I dont miss any

To explain uniques a bit better, they’ll always have the same stats but the stats can have ranges they’ll roll within, so you can get a unique and it’ll do what it’s supposed to, but you can technically get a slightly better version of it

#

To use Marina’s as an example

nocturne notch
#

Got it!!

#

Thanks

nocturne notch
#

why does this lootfilter care if the affix is T5+

brittle atlas
#

To highlight affixes for other classes so you can shatter them for later characters to use, but to not show every item like that that drops avoid flooding you in low tier items that aren’t really worth shattering just to get one or two shards from

#

You could technically lower the threshold to show T3 or T4 or whatever arbitrary value you prefer

nocturne notch
#

I see, sorry for all the questions haha

brittle atlas
#

No problem

nocturne notch
#

The crafting and gear system is SO different in this game

#

to any ive played

nocturne notch
#

If i took a BAD modifier for a boss in a certain echo

#

Anything I can do about it? haha

#

If start over is the answer im fine with that but how do I abandon an echo

dire mist
#

just portal out

nocturne notch
#

i did but its still the same web when im back right?

dire mist
#

yes

wanton hatch
#

You can go do other echoes and burn off that bad modifier. But yeah you can’t “skip” past the echo.

nocturne notch
#

Oh, nice ok

nocturne notch
#

any good rewards from these?

#

and the soul bastion keys

#

arena keys

wide sentinel
nocturne notch
#

or wait until higher level?

wide sentinel
#

there are several tiers of each, so you have to complete low lvl anyways before getting into tier 4

nocturne notch
#

ah ok

knotty hull
#

60% increased dmg or +32 flat dmg

#

which is bigger

north mist
#

Depends on how much flat damage, damage effectiveness and increased damage you have already

#

But probably +32 flat in this case because its a lot, and +60% is not that much

knotty hull
#

hm

#

wish i knew ice shard damage effectiveness

#

thing is

#

+60% dmg and huge quality of life

#

or +32 flat and be efficiency's slave

north mist
#

What is giving you +32 flat minion damage, that sounds like a lot

knotty hull
#

4 shades of the lich set

#

9 infernal shades can give up to 9 * 13 = 117 flat cold

formal sentinel
#

Guys the "adds x% increased N damage" (cold, fire, lightning,void, etc) applies to everything ? spells/meleet/etc ? or only to melee ?

native sail
#

Do note that full sets usually get outclassed by legendaries later. Also you can't double up on a set, just in case you had some weird thought like that

knotty hull
#

thanks for the advise, sorry what is double up?

north mist
#

So yes, it applies to everything of that element

native sail
#

Okay, just off that I can tell you weren't thinking of it so no need to worry

knotty hull
#

double up you mean duplicate the item?

native sail
#

You'll only get the set effect once is what I meant

knotty hull
#

ah yes of course

#

in the end

#

i wish we had like in D3

#

where you could change all your setup

#

for specific situations

#

echo farming, boss, etc

native sail
#

Like... loadouts?

knotty hull
#

yes yes

native sail
#

I don't think they necessarily want that in LE, I'm unsure. They like to have to make you think about what you're doing in this game.

knotty hull
#

hm

#

they make you want to have a build that clears fast

#

and also is good boss killer

native sail
#

Yeah, which is a large amount of builds

#

But this game also isn't a speed-farm game

knotty hull
#

guess im slowly realizing it

#

i came from d3 where i enjoyed speedfarming rifts
and then change my setup to push higher rifts

native sail
#

And a lot of the time a good boss killer and a farm character are separate because a high end farm character is (from what I understand, I don't go past 350 or so corruption) considerably more defense focused than offense

knotty hull
#

my ''efficiency-only'' mentality is what kills me

#

but where is the fun if not in minmaxing everything

native sail
#

There is plenty of minmaxing in this, it's just not focused on roleplaying as The Flash

Hey guys im new to the game. I dont know where to post this but on the questline of Sanity in the Darkness, at the docks to find the Last Imperial's Phylactery, it doesn't spawn on my map.

I've cleared out all mobs, and i just can't find it. Is there something else I should do?

warm yew
#

It shouldn't be at the docks - the Phylacterys are in the same zone as the Imperial; you basically run to the end of the zone to pick up the quest, then loop back through to finish it.

silk pebble
#

Oh the quest marker (?) is tagged at the docks waypoint. Weird.

warm yew
#

There's a bunch of overlap with those quest markers, unfortunately - when you pick up "help the Denizens of Welryn" you'll get all three main quest markers at the same time - the individual ones don't come with a more detailed explanation.

formal sentinel
#

For maelstrom DoT>Cold Dmg>Spell dmg ?

silk pebble
#

Thanks @warm yew . I guess I'm finished with the docks then

warm yew
#

And Elemental Damage equal with Spell damage, if you need the flexibility for some reason (like lightning maul/swipes)

formal sentinel
#

So right now it's just for lvling

#

Then i'll got for DoT

#

Thanks 😄

warm yew
#

I find scepters in a weird spot for spellcaster builds; if you're not going for both attacks and spells, you're better off with a wand. That includes bear shenanigans - because almost all the damage you do comes from spells; but you can still use the melee attacks that trigger them with a wand.

#

If you're going for a proper swipe/warcry/maelstrom build through and through - sure; but then I'd probably just use a staff for the 2h version.

formal sentinel
warm yew
#

At the end of the day, whatever's fun and engaging for you is best - hope it all works out in your favor.

small geyser
#

di-- did the MSQ just rob me of all my money O.o

brittle atlas
#

the dude that asks you for 100k?

wide sentinel
#

just kill him

small geyser
#

didn't see the option to kill, and clicked too fast u___u

hollow socket
#

Honestly though, I love that your dialogue choices actually "matter" for picking the optimal outcome here.

#

Same as with the fence. Makes it worth going through the dialogue.

ripe tiger
#

Haven't been keeping up with news for this game for quite some time, but saw that multiplayer testing has recently begun last month, did they release any official release date for multiplayer patch tho?

buoyant sinew
ripe tiger
#

ahh ok, so its not too far off then

#

tyty

marble zinc
#

How u swap spec skills.....accidentally picked and thats it cant replace no more

#

Either steamdeck controls are out of whack or i dunno how to swap lol

buoyant sinew
#

select respec from in the skill menu you want to get rid of, and then pick "despecialize"

marble zinc
#

I did and it respec the wrong skill.....

#

I selected second skill to respect and wiped xp and skill of first one that i didnt wanted to lol

#

Nvm figured lol

#

Still makes no sense but it worked lol

paper elm
#

Are blessings only for the specific timeline with that blessing or for all of them?

buoyant sinew
#

they're permanent bonuses to your character

#

apply anywhere

paper elm
#

Is there a way to list them all then

#

or do you need to hover on the map

buoyant sinew
#

all the ones you have or all the ones that exist?

paper elm
#

the ones I have

buoyant sinew
#

if you open your inventory there's a blessings tab at the top you can click on

paper elm
#

oooooh

#

nice!

buoyant sinew
#

and the circle around them shows how well rolled they are, if you want to min-max 😄

paper elm
#

I was avoiding character buffs from them because I didn't want to be stronger depending on where I was

#

but if they are everywhere that changes a lot

marble zinc
#

Is there a way to respec passives?

paper elm
#

Yeah brain icon on end of time and some other towns

marble zinc
#

Can u tp to towns from anywhere or gotta get to it via campaign?

buoyant sinew
#

you can tp to town from anywhere with a town portal, or you can open the map screen and tp to any waypoint you've discovered from anywhere

marble zinc
#

When i click map quests nothing happens

#

Nvm gotta use that button near mana orb

#

Damn even map isnt user friendly

#

No idea where is town just bunch of small circles lol

#

Travel button dont work either

#

U gotta stand on travel point or something?

#

Or this isnt an basic teleport system like any other arpg out there where u tp from anywhere

buoyant sinew
#

nah you can tp from anywhere. if you're on steam deck it might be controls weirdness?

marble zinc
#

I mean kind of but still works fine just makes it feel like its not responsive lol

#

Im clicking on travel button and nothing happens lol i noticed on most stuff - nothing happens when clicking😆

#

Seems like cant travel to towb from anywhere

#

Theres no town icons even

#

Every era tab has wayppoints....cant even tell what u discovered and what didnt

#

I gotta empty the inv lol.....and have to ignore gear most of time cuz i cant carry anymore

#

I get it its beta....but this is too much lol

paper elm
#

icons are different for me

#

undiscovered waypoint

#

discovered waypoint

#

no waypoint

#

also I think this star arround the waypoint means town

austere hound
#

Idk there must be an issue on your end, I encountered some bugs but nothing major. If you press T then a portal to town opens, it's not immediately clickable but I hope that's getting fixed

#

Towns have icons on the map just fine, maybe try to restart your game if they have not for you

paper elm
#

Biggest issue that prevents me from enjoying the game right now is performance tbh

#

some zones are unplayable

austere hound
#

My pc seems to be good enough, butter smooth on ultra settings

paper elm
#

I have a pretty good pc and have no performance issues with any other game

#

but today I entered this area and I was at 10 fps for some reason for example

#

it's hard to see but there is a counter on the top left

austere hound
#

Only problem I have is that twitch freezes if I don't cap fps

marsh maple
#

I had those problems, but then I upgraded my ram and it instantly went away for now reason @paper elm actual mysterious stuff

paper elm
#

I also know I'm not alone

austere hound
#

Well I heard performance improvements are on the way

paper elm
#

Yeah I'm praying for that

marble zinc
#

Why loot finder couldnt be just simple lol...why it has to be that complex do game has that much of variety of gear?

#

Import/export loot filter ......brah

paper elm
#

I find it hard to imagine how it could possibly be simpler

marble zinc
#

Managed to make so it shows only blue and above loot,yet still i see white drops

paper elm
#

You probably are overwriting that rule above

marble zinc
#

Why cant it just be a tab with gear rarity to select and thats it lol.....75 rules to loot filter is overkill

paper elm
#

If you have a rule that shows all katanas above a rule that hides all white items for exmaple, white katanas will still show.

#

if all you wanna change is loot rarity you can just make a filter with a singular rule that hides the rarities you are not interested in

marble zinc
#

I have one rule "show all magic items" does it mean it hides all above and below blue?

paper elm
#

no

#

What are you trying to do

marble zinc
#

If its all above only then its not working

#

Trying to filter out whites

paper elm
#

then make a rule that hides normal items

#

I have this

marble zinc
#

Its under item type?

paper elm
#

It's on the screenshot sir

#

under rarity

marble zinc
#

Oh nvm u can check multiple

#

There u go

#

Thoughtu have to make new condition per check lol

#

The UI kinda makes it a bit complex at first glance

#

Well still i see white items

#

So no idea what i do wrobg

paper elm
#

Do you have any other rules that are higher than that one on the list?

marble zinc
#

All at blue and above and still see whites on ground

paper elm
#

You are not hiding normal items

#

please follow my screenshot

#

Make a rule that says hide normal items and you are done

#

the rules do exactly what you tell them to do and nothing else, they cannot read your mind

marble zinc
#

I see,but still dont get it how that wouldnt be same when u make show all but the white😆

#

Hide white vs show all but white

paper elm
#

Because showing all items is like

#

the default

#

so that line you have doesn't actually do anything

#

imagine there is an invisible line all the way on the bottom that says show all items of all rarity or something

valid dagger
#

All items are shown by default

#

The filter does exactly and specifically what you tell it to do, nothing else

#

If you do not tell it to hide white items, it does not hide them

#

If you tell it to show things it is already showing, well

#

It's already doing that

#

So nothing changes

marble zinc
#

So game is like dark souls system.....upon returning to town everything resets

#

Comparing to quitting game to reset everything

sharp quartz
marble zinc
#

Oh so it wont be like this in 0.9

#

Or mp is in 0.9

sick yacht
#

Both

sharp quartz
#

Its meant to be fixed in 0.9 - I assume that this will apply to playing in multiplayer online or single player in offline. (wouldnt make sense not to)

sick yacht
#

Have they said if names will have to be unique in mp? Like 1 Bob in all of LE or if I could name all of my characters Bob?

nocturne notch
#

Is there a way to target farm specific base items? Or is it anywhere

#

Like if I want to farm A BUNCHHH of these revenant robes

#

What’s the best way to do that

vapid aspen
#

Play acolyte and slam body armour reward echoes

nocturne notch
#

In any mono?

#

Doesn’t matter which one?

vapid aspen
#

Any timeline works

#

Higher level timeline or empowered will drop more and better stuff

nocturne notch
#

Oki

#

Thanks

empty forge
#

is there a way to target farm specific uniques? I'm looking for the "Omnividence" unique staff

austere hound
#

But keep in mind that the staff is very rare

rapid heath
#

Has anyone an approximated time window for the new patch or is every date just speculation?

austere hound
#

Goal for 9.0 is this year

near quartz
#

worryThink is this as good as i think it is

austere hound
#

Sure if you're after specific rewards and completed a bunch of them already

nocturne notch
#

why cant I level the prefixes here?

amber notch
#

Because you don't have the shards

nocturne notch
#

Oh

austere hound
#

That's why you want to shatter items with rare affixes to get the shards

near quartz
#

oh i have to path back to the nodes pepeLa

austere hound
#

Only if you don't want to use it obv

near quartz
#

for some reason i thought i would be able to enter any of the nodes i previously cleared

dense ravine
#

what is considered high mana cost skill?

knotty tinsel
#

subjective

#

to me if I press a skill on cooldown and end up losing mana over time, that's High

dense ravine
#

nvm i guess i just didnt read

#

i was checking tree and a node said dmg increased with high mana cost skills

#

and it says on top that if the skill costs 10 or more mana

#

so i guess thats it

spark drift
#

Any chance to highlight exalted items on minimap? (like uniq or set items)

acoustic thicket
#

I'm on the quest 'rahyehs warpath' in the divine era gates of solarum. I can't seem to teleport anywhere near there. How the hell do I get there

#

I've not got a waypoiny anywhere in divine era

brittle atlas
#

go fight the emperor again in the imperial era

#

if you leave the start of the divine era before you get the waypoint that's the only way back

quaint sedge
#

I have a problem with a loot filter. first rule - hide all white and all not-spell/elemental loot, but useless items are still visible. any ideas why?

brittle atlas
#

filters work top down, rules on top have priority over everything else

#

also, the only hide rule you should need is one that hides all items at the bottom of your rules

#

then you put rules to show what you want on top of it

#

for example

quaint sedge
#

thanks, that works

primal sorrel
#

Subjective question: how much play time would I get from this game if I buy now, before I get bored? As in, before I feel like end game isn't progressing/ is slowing down

wide sentinel
#

depends, you can get to the furthest endgame in under 20h if you know what you are doing and using op build

brittle atlas
#

There are people with thousands of hours

#

I'm a little over 2k

wide sentinel
#

ye i dont really get how people get bored or say that endgame feels lackluster

brittle atlas
#

there's a bunch of different builds to try, stuff to explore, things to improve, items to get and craft
