[stone igloo]

thanks, will watch it

[thick anchor]

What is "Critical strike Shance" ?? xD xD

[stiff oak]

@tranquil nimbus yo since u know this game, what is the endgame content? is there dungeons or something like in Lost ark?

[minor vigil]

a typo

[olive locust]

why does the mage start at level 3

[thick anchor]

Ahh thought as much I will go report it to devs 😄 😄

Wanted to make sure before wasting their time lol

[minor vigil]

it's been posted before

[tranquil nimbus]

Monoliths. Similar to maps in PoE

[thick anchor]

Nice oki I will leave it thank you

[native sail]

There are 3 dungeons currently with 4 tiers to them, the fourth tier is level 100 and will absolutely fuck you up if you don't know what you're doing. The main loop of endgame is monoliths, which is like if you mixed to Diablo 3 rifts and PoE maps and added in some target farming and actual bosses.

[astral gale]

hey guys where is the testing dummy now ? its not in end of time anymore ?

[native sail]

Champion's Gate

[tranquil nimbus]

there are some endgame bosses, there's also an arena mode (waves of mobs), as well as dungeons with special properties with various tiers (4 tiers)

[native sail]

Arena isn't real

[tranquil nimbus]

it is if u dream

[native sail]

We do not speak of Arena

[tranquil nimbus]

I enjoyed arena unironically lol

[minor vigil]

@main elk you will not be level 40 before selecting mastery, but you can also respec very easily

youll be like 25 max

it's not very far in

[astral gale]

and where is champions gate ?

[native sail]

Heoborea

[astral gale]

I swear the map in this game is so difficult to see

[main elk]

I was like level 30 something when i hit it. Could just be a one-off for me tho.

[stiff oak]

okay gotcha

[glossy moat]

is multiplayer 3 or 4 max?

[native sail]

4

[glossy moat]

tyty

[meager socket]

im trying to go to the right sude where age of winter is. is there a rigth way to go about it? should i run ending the storm again?

[minor vigil]

you have to run the ending the storm quest echoes again yes

[native sail]

^

[minor vigil]

i think it's the second one where liath offers you the choice

[meager socket]

cool tyty

[somber heart]

can someone explain crafting to me? i really dont get it, i have all these shards but dunno what to do then in the F window at all...

[neat wren]

Do I keep my dungeon keys for later or can I just run them whenever?

[native sail]

Hit the transfer crafting items button first and foremost

[fiery heron]

Any EU player here who's gotten past the login-queue-boss recently?

[minor vigil]

choose an affix to add, increase the tier of an affix on the item, or use a rune or glyph to somehow modify the next craft

[thorn ermine]

dungeons bugged apparently so I guess we're all saving our keys

[somber heart]

thank you, that seems to have been the issue lol

[hazy ledge]

I dont have a queue I'm just stuck on connecting, and then it just pops me back into character selection

[native sail]

Yeeeeah, happens a lot

[fiery heron]

@hazy ledge talking online?

[digital tiger]

I'm like 19k

[hazy ledge]

yeh

[fiery heron]

@digital tiger the numbers I hear are meaningless

[digital tiger]

Wait what?

[main elk]

Restart your client. I had the SAME issue for hours. They changed a couple things and i restarted my client and instantly logged back in.

[austere hound]

well they show your entry point right

[native sail]

The numbers aren't displaying accurately, the queue is functioning though

[fiery heron]

@digital tiger last night it was just a bunch of 'garbage' taking up numbers in the queue or something

[frail hemlock]

if i respec my passive tree, do my active skills that require those passive points get reset?

[lusty moth]

Can i play my offline char on online when servers are better?

[fiery heron]

@digital tiger there's no way in hell there was 40k+ playing in eu at 1 pm anyway

[native sail]

Yes.

[native sail]

No, offline and online are always separate due to security risks.

[digital tiger]

Hahah true true so I guess I just wait?

[lusty moth]

Ty!

[austere hound]

they fixed that?

[fiery heron]

@digital tiger thats the current recommendation.. I was waiting for 30 mins without any sign of life so I bailed

[mighty stirrup]

Is there a limit to the number of max poison stack you can inflict ?

[austere hound]

no

[native sail]

No but the secondary shred effect caps at 30 stacks

[digital tiger]

Jeez 😭 times like these I need a 2nd monitor

[fiery heron]

@digital tiger if u have a VPN u can probably get past it, awareo f that?

[mighty stirrup]

Thanks

[native sail]

I'm fairly sure, yes.

[digital tiger]

Haha what country do I have to play fron

[inner tangle]

why should a VPN help...all regions got queues no?

[native sail]

Less populated region = less or no queue

[fiery heron]

@digital tiger people were having success with logging in from China I think, but that was yesterday

[native sail]

But you will have ping

[fiery heron]

@digital tiger after u get past the login-stage, you log off the VPN supposedly

[native sail]

That part isn't consistent

[digital tiger]

💀 sounds sus

[native sail]

Some folks got redirected to their servers, some didn't

[fiery heron]

this is just 2nd hand knowledge

[digital tiger]

I have a VPN I guess it wouldn't hurt too see 😂

[native sail]

As someone who tested it, it isn't consistent

[fiery heron]

exactly

[thorn ermine]

I'm watching a vid of a guy playing 8.4 and his items had no forging potential, does that mean 8.5 was like a big overhaul for the items?

[fiery heron]

beats sitting in this seemingly dead login queue

[native sail]

Yes.

[thorn ermine]

k cool

so basically, u found an item and that was it?

because his stats were great on his items

[native sail]

Prior to 0.8.5 we had this awful thing called "fracturing" where sometimes when you crafted on an item it would just instantly brick

[brave ibex]

No you could still craft on items

[thorn ermine]

ah lol

[minor vigil]

crafts had a chance to fail

based on the instability of the item

[native sail]

I'm still convinced it wasn't working right just based on the sheer number of items I had that were like 98% success and still instant bricks.

[tranquil nimbus]

I remember 😭

[digital tiger]

@fiery heron I got in

[eternal mesa]

This is a lot to learn. Hooray for so many different mechanics and terms. Are you able to respec? I don't want to waste my points not knowing what the hell I'm doing 😄

[minor vigil]

yes you can respec, it's very easy

[tranquil nimbus]

Respecs are easy

[minor vigil]

you cannot change your masterey though

[tardy hare]

Can't respec the mastery you pick though, only the points

[native sail]

Respeccing everything except mastery is possible

[tranquil nimbus]

basically can't change subclass

[eternal mesa]

Okay cool, thanks.

Also is there trading? I hope so.

[tranquil nimbus]

Not right now

there will be

there is a news post about it

[austere hound]

@digital tiger with restarting game or staying in queue?

[minor vigil]

you can gift items to people in the map with you when the item dropped

[digital tiger]

Restarting 😂

[eternal mesa]

I literally know nothing about this game. Should be fun. Love the genre of course.

[minor vigil]

as a member of the last epoch discord i think the game is good

[tranquil nimbus]

It's such an exciting experience

[inner tangle]

OMG it actually worked....o0 took Romanian an my VPN...and instantly got in...previously 7k in queue. Thanks for the tip

[acoustic thicket]

there is a queue?

[eternal mesa]

I didn't have a queue.

[acoustic thicket]

dito

[wintry junco]

I had no queue, do we know why some do?

[thin spade]

Does anyone know a way to compare your ring to 2nd slot?

[umbral dagger]

how it work with story pgression and friends? like if 1 friend dsnt play today, and we start to play? we need to reopen with him again?

[native sail]

Not a thing yet, they know it's annoying, they'll put it in eventually

[native sail]

You can drag them forwards, they won't get side quest progression though

[umbral dagger]

and how important is the side quest? or anything they can miss for the endgame?

[minor vigil]

some side quests give you passive points

you cant miss anything

[native sail]

Pretty important. They have passive points and idol slots, but there's more than you need to cap them.

[quiet gulch]

do damage from weapon implicit add to throwing attacks? people say it doesnt but seems very weird and unintuitive

[final maple]

is there a way on m&k to have an interact key separate from mouse clicking? it's a thing on controller so seems like it should be doable. just tired of attacking thing when i wanna pick stuff up or get through dialogue lol

[brave ibex]

No. Melee damage or spell damage don't apply to throwing attacks

[umbral dagger]

and they need to do the story again for all the important side quest?

[native sail]

No they can just go back and do only those side quests

[umbral dagger]

ty

its like boost him levels? or theres any mechanic for this?

[native sail]

There is no power leveling

[slender fjord]

Anyone know a fix for not being able to activate empowered monos after doing the level 90 ones

[native sail]

Exp gain is capped to a 10 level difference.

[honest radish]

are there any items that let you leech off ailment damage?

[umbral dagger]

so how my friend can get to us if we continue without him?

[native sail]

Unless it specifies "on hit" you can leech off of ailments

[native sail]

Just continue playing, it isn't that bad.

[umbral dagger]

so he just follow us underlevel?

[native sail]

Yeah, he'll catch up

[umbral dagger]

k ty

[torpid hemlock]

how many items can i Shatter with 1 rune of shattering? and should i just shatter all the items that i dont need, to increase my bank of crafting mats?

[native sail]

Only one item per rune

[torpid hemlock]

wut. i shattered like 10 already

[honest radish]

what exactly does the wording need to be so I know it will leech from ailments, for example I got something that says "spell damage leeched as life" obv that wouldnt count.

[native sail]

Because you have more than one rune

[silk wharf]

softcore or hardcore? which one has most people play?

[torpid hemlock]

the number doesnt change, i had 8 and i still have 8

[stiff oak]

is there like a garen, tryndamere class where u play with a double handed sword and just swing, jump and dash around?

[brave ibex]

"damage leeched as life"

[native sail]

Thank you Knocks

[native sail]

Sounds like a bug then, that's a new one. Post a report.

!bug

[ripe brook]

Please post bug reports on our forum: https://forum.lastepoch.com/c/bug-reports. Thank you. :smile:

[eternal mesa]

So the passive tree? Do you pick one mastery, and then have the base tree as well?

[honest radish]

liches node decaying form increases poison damage I take correct?

[native sail]

You pick one mastery and get the full tree for it and the base, then the masteries you don't pick have their left halves unlocked but the right half locked.

[native sail]

Post it

[native sail]

I'm a Druid, can't go past the chain in the tree

[eternal mesa]

Should I save my early passive points for the mastery I want? Or does it not matter.

[native sail]

Just for visual

[native sail]

I usually stop putting points in base tree around 20-25

[native sail]

Yeah, you'll take more poison damage

[torpid hemlock]

ok the shattering rune thing was bug/lag... as soon i moved to a new area the number updated and im totally out of shattering runes..... wasted for nothing 🤣

[native sail]

visual bugs are fun

[robust zodiac]

Is there a way when using werebear to swap which bear skills are which slots? like change right click to q?

[native sail]

Supposed to be but people are reporting issues with it

[long radish]

can someone help the quest doesnt complete for some reason

[hollow lagoon]

what's the class to choose if I want lots of minions? a zookeeper type build

[native sail]

Beastmaster or Necro.

[fiery heron]

@digital tiger Just got in myself instantly

[unkempt heron]

Can i gift people items that weren't in my group when it dropped or will that be added next patch?

[native sail]

The only system planned for that is resonances and that isn't in yet. And still does require playing with them in order to get resonances to begin with.

[unkempt heron]

so the game is solo self found roughly?

[hollow lagoon]

thanks; this looks great: https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/necromancer-leveling-guide

[native sail]

Until the faction update comes out. You can gift to people who were in the zone with you when it dropped as of now at least.

[unkempt heron]

thanks

[acoustic thicket]

Returned to Last Epoch. My display name is set to an old Steam name. Any way to refresh it? When I log on to lastepoch.com via Steam it displays the correct name, just not in-game

[native sail]

Hope you enjoy

[hidden peak]

Message support iirc

[spare fossil]

Can someone explain me please how to get to Maj'Elka if I didnt use teleport after I've killed octopus boss? I didnt enter teleport to activate it in Maj'Elka and I dont know how to move to next zone 😦

[hidden peak]

If you don't have a portal there, do you have to do lagon again then?
Or party with someone and port to them

[modest harbor]

after you get the lance thats pretty much where you can start doing monos?

[spare fossil]

I guess so, I have to kill boss again I think

[native sail]

That's what I usually do. Dead tree, good enough for me.

[acoustic thicket]

does warpath can echoed via void knight passives

[native sail]

Yes

[blazing loom]

any fix for buged que ?

[native sail]

Queue is functioning. It just isn't displaying right.

[thorn ermine]

can you rune of ascendance any unique minus dungeon boss drops? Or does that include mono boss drops too? All boss drops excluded and all echo drop uniques included?

[native sail]

All boss drops excluded.

[thorn ermine]

ok thx

[empty patio]

I just got in instantly after giving up for an hour.

Any resource I could consult to help me take an informed decision on my first character? I can't decide

[hidden peak]

Build guides on many sources on the internet

[minor vigil]

dr3adful's youtube channel has a bunch of builds

[wide trench]

How can I check what region I am connected to? My friend and I trying to play together,m we tried to use steam to join other game but it does not give us option to join!? Any tips!?

[native sail]

Hit H in game

And region is shown on the little blue bar next to skills in game

[wintry junco]

Are the early access packs gone?

[empty patio]

that's a bit too much to go through though, I was hoping for a breakdown of the various classes for new players

[hidden peak]

Character select has those

You can click through the masteries on them for a short desc

[empty patio]

it lists stuff I don't understand yet ...

[modest harbor]

lol

[empty patio]

Plus I'd trust player opinion more than the intended balance

[hidden peak]

They're all good

[native sail]

(Except Shaman)

[plush river]

Is there a some hard cap for block or can i reach 100% ?

[minor vigil]

id say play druid but it's bugged rn so try paladin or void knight

they're both sentinels

and they're both very good

[native sail]

Technically you can reach 100%. There's a unique shield where that's the entire gimmick.

[minor vigil]

sentinel can do basically everything

[wintry junco]

Can't see traveler's backpack on me >_>

[wide trench]

@native sail Thanks youare the star!

[plush river]

Only with that unique shield ?

[native sail]

Not sure what the theoretical max is without Bastion, I'd have to tinker with the planner.

[empty patio]

I wasn't asking for what's best, but thank you will do for now

[plush river]

Ok thx

[brave ibex]

You can hit 100% block on Sentinel a couple different ways

[native sail]

I think the highest I've gotten without like Warpath block node is 80%?

[minor vigil]

sentinel is a physical, fire, lightning or void class with a balance between melee and spells and a lot of easily accessible defenses

[devout pier]

@wintry junco if you got the game before today youll get it when backpacks are given out

[minor vigil]

paladin has a lot of healing and does well with lightning and fire damage

[thorn ermine]

should i rune of ascendance gloves to maybe grab salt the wound unique gloves? If lastepochtools says "effective level for LP is 76", do I need to be level 76 to use rune of ascendance to get LP?

[wintry junco]

yeah I have it, but it's not visual

[minor vigil]

void knight can create echoes of itself that cast your skills again and does void damage usually

[native sail]

Nope. Ascendance doesn't care about your level

[wise sleet]

what level does the campaign finish?

[devout pier]

what scam

[thorn ermine]

nice thx

[wintry junco]

facts

[native sail]

The effective level for LP is just a rarity scalar basically.

[devout pier]

Makes no sense had the game for years i have no backpack ):

[empty patio]

nice, thanks, what about rogue? (if you don't mind me asking, don't worry won't ask about all classes :P)

[wintry junco]

https://portal.lastepoch.com/claim-backpack

[minor vigil]

rogue just got nerfed to shit so idk how it plays now, but bladedancer is/was an immortal melee attacker that's good at stacking ailments and can generate/spend shadow clones of itself, marksman is a squishier ranged attacker who is the only bow user

[tacit fiber]

is it safe to keep playing while having the naked bug?

[native sail]

It's just visual

[tacit fiber]

ty 😄

[native sail]

Rogue is still very strong mind you. It just isn't 180m poison DPS strong.

[minor vigil]

makes sense

[stoic yew]

any fix for LE-13 errror?

[devout pier]

thanks homie

[wintry junco]

I got u

[golden olive]

If i do this build for Wraiths, would it be possible they can out dmg/atk their health decay?

[fallow ridge]

any hammerdin smite build guide that's up to date?

[short spoke]

should i just avoid traversal skills and stack haste now?

[dense root]

i didn’t see any that were made specifically for the new patch but i think you can use an old guide and it’ll be fine since it’s not like they nerfed anything about the at build

[violet hedge]

Is there any sort of tier list or otherwise somewhere that points out what are the good uniques and set pieces worth holding onto? As a new player everything looks cool/good, but I'm sure most of this stuff I saved is junk lol. Same question for exalted bases/mods.

[thorn ermine]

is rune of ascendance like worthless really? Super rng, you need a great unique+high LP roll.

[dense root]

sets are easy

they all suck

[barren minnow]

Regular traversal skills like lunge and shift feel completely fine imo, you occasionally get stuck but can get easily unstuck by attacking in place. I heard skills like Dancing Strikes, which moves your character and has no cooldown, feel kinda bad with the current netcode right now.

[native sail]

Okay high LP is not realistic on a lot of items so disregard that.

[thorn ermine]

lol

what about LP2 even? Like I think we need at least that.

[native sail]

On some items sure

[dense root]

a substantial portion of uniques are balanced around having no lp

[thorn ermine]

otherwise exalted just beats so many uniques

[native sail]

On like Bastion or Rav? Fuck no

[eternal mesa]

Okay, not sure what I'm missing. How do I change the skills on the skill bar. I don't just drag the skill I want there?

[native sail]

yeah that's the point

This isn't D3

[thorn ermine]

KEK

[native sail]

Click the skill bar

[dense root]

the only things that absolutely need lp on them to be competitive with exalted items or other uniques are low level uniques that are way behind on raw stats

[thorn ermine]

what is Bastion and Rav btw? Bosses?

oh nm, Shield

[dense root]

bastion and rav are chase uniques

[thorn ermine]

chase?

[dense root]

bastion is a shield, ravenous void is a pair of gloves

[proven crypt]

hello, are the founder packs gone? do I get something if I buy it on steam or just the game?

[thorn ermine]

ah k

[dense root]

just means they’re desirable

[thorn ermine]

ya looking at Bastion now, looks sick even without LP

[dense root]

and somewhat rare

[short spoke]

shift is consistently bugging out for me, you get stuck so often... and having to use an attack animation to get out sorta eliminates some of the utility of the move, but i guess it does make it playable for clearing.

gameplay wise though, it feels awful.

[barren minnow]

Oh that sucks, I don't have that many issues with it. With Shift I only got stuck twice or so on my way to level 59

[short spoke]

where are last epoch servers located?

[smoky wing]

Anyone know how to enable matchmaking

[barren minnow]

Lunge gets stuck more often, especially when I try to use it on inanimate objects

[dense root]

i’ve found that shift only gets stuck for me if i’m still holding down the move button when i use the ability

idk why

[short spoke]

holy shit you're completely right

[native sail]

There is no public groups. Invite via chat, username in the social menu (H), search in the in-game LFG chat, or #👥┃lfg

[short spoke]

it cant handle an input post effect

wtf

ok well, problem solved w muscle memory, but still weird and not how it operated in the previous patch.

[barren minnow]

Last Epoch main servers I have no idea, but you should have a server cluster somewhere in your region.

[dry narwhal]

it'll be fixed soon i'm sure

[thorn ermine]

has anyone ever scored big on rune of ascendance? Like LP2 big? 😄

[narrow ibex]

hello, I just bought the game, if I wanna push for end game (whatever it is in this game :D) is there any class/subclass I should avoid? I really like the druid subclass, is that viable?

[thorn ermine]

LP2 + desirable unique

[dry narwhal]

druid is very viable

[short spoke]

@dense root you saved my gaming lmao

[dense root]

anything is viable although my opinion is that primalist and its subclasses are generally the weakest at the moment

[dry narwhal]

generally the only one to avoid right now is shama

[native sail]

"Desirable" is reliant on what you're looking for. I've gotten uniques I've needed with 2LP from them, yes. It is uncommon though.

[dense root]

but like any subclass can complete the campaign, do the endgame dungeons, and run echoes (similar to poe maps)

[dry narwhal]

druid is insane at the moment

[thorn ermine]

nice

[narrow ibex]

sad to hear, I really like werebear form 😄

[dry narwhal]

you should go be a bear!

it's fun!

[acoustic thicket]

hello
what's the purpose of the map shown to you after character creation?
I restarted the game whilst I was on it and it didn't appear again

[vocal berry]

Maxroll is placing Spellblade and shaman to the last tier alone 😄

[dry narwhal]

ah yes, the site run by Arena players.

[dense root]

sure i could be wrong. haven’t played druid post patch so to some extent my opinions are outdated. can’t really provide more than my general feeling about stuff from previous patch + an educated guess about how the patch notes changed everything

[native sail]

Spellblade has minimal builds, Shaman is bad.

[dry narwhal]

Druid and all 3 forms are doing good at the moment

beastmaster is also a fine spec

[vocal berry]

like the arena from the game? is it a bad place? i'm on Monolith right now but arena seems intersting gameplay wise

[dense root]

imo just do it then. you can do all the content with any mastery if you have good gear and learn the boss mechanics

[dry narwhal]

it's an interesting place, but it requires different builds to really push far

[undone zinc]

What level do you get the other classes after your base class?

[dense root]

like your mastery?

[dry narwhal]

25~

[undone zinc]

Yeah wanna get duid as quick as possible

[dense root]

it’s part of a quest but yeah early 20s

[native sail]

This is a bad take btw. Because as much as I meme on arena, the people who make the builds on Maxroll are prominent players and builders with possibly more experience in the game than anyone else.

[vocal berry]

oh okay i'm playing spellblade two sword shatterstrike how far can i push it :D.

[dry narwhal]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

i trust and use their builds, i also just don't trust tier lists, and just generally don't think they need to be seen as fact like some people believe.

[dry narwhal]

i don't play arena, and unfortunately don't play shatterstrike, but i can't imagine you can't get a couple hundred waves in at least

[narrow ibex]

is there anything like poe.xyz for the in game loot filters? if so, can I find any filter I should use for leveling a druid? thanks 🙂

[dry narwhal]

google Heavyz' loot filters

[dense root]

i think there’s someone that puts out basic filters but i can’t remember their name

it’s pretty easy to make your own so i always just do that

[raw fern]

https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/0-9-ready-for-mp-heavyz-casual-loot-filters-for-all-classes-v3/25176

[dry narwhal]

he has an updated page for .9

[narrow ibex]

thanks

[wide trench]

We are now able ot get in party but as soon we do we cant teleport anywhere, or my mate gets "lost connection" - I am lvl 26 and hes only 7 is that what could cause or is this just random bug?

[dry narwhal]

there's just a lot of issues for the moment

[spare helm]

just started playing, how do you unlock the cosmetics menu? It's greyed out for me

[dense root]

i’m not sure any cosmetics are in yet

[dry narwhal]

^

[wide trench]

so it just luck you either able to play campaign together or not based oh how sad the server feel? 😄

[dense root]

i think the backpack is the first one they’re adding but it’s not done yet

[dry narwhal]

basically hazin

[spare helm]

Ah I see, thanks

[dry narwhal]

my friend and i got to monos together last night

but a lot of people can't even party

[dense root]

they got a lot more players than they expected so some stuff is going wrong

it’s a temporary problem at least

[vocal berry]

they should stop using this excuse and i love last epoch and their team but stop saying that every release of a game... there's always a lot of players

[dense root]

i mean it’s a very reasonable explanation

[vocal berry]

not when the problem arise every game by now everyone is aware that there's a lot of player at a launch, no it's most likely because there will be less player in a week and they can't spend money in big server that will be half empty in two weeks

[dry narwhal]

servers can and do get overloaded

and sometimes just aren't connected right to transfer players between each other

[dense root]

idk what to tell you if you want to think they’re doing this intentionally to save a few bucks i can’t stop you

but that’s not something i have any reason to believe myself

[vocal berry]

it's not a few buck and it's the right decision

[tired ledge]

Have any experienced Screen tearing / Screen flickering, shaking in this patch. Asking behalf of the friend.
FPS looks good ~ 97 so it should be just "bad pc"

[pseudo niche]

Is the stash account wide or character specific, in MP?

[dry narwhal]

stash works for any character that is not in a challenge mode

[dense root]

and it really doesn’t make sense since a smooth multiplayer launch has obvious value in terms of player retention

[pseudo niche]

Cheers

[opal sigil]

Does anyone know how long you wait with about 5000 waiting list?

[dense root]

unless they fixed it recently the number on your queue screen doesn’t mean anything

[last thistle]

does item base or item level matter when using a rune of ascendance?

[dense root]

like the queue is moving and people are getting in but your position isn’t the number it shows

[dry narwhal]

not at all

[dense root]

well base matters a little

[opal sigil]

okay thank's

[dense root]

like you need a dagger base to get a dagger

[last thistle]

cool, so I can buy a lvl 40 amulet and get devotion from it

[dense root]

you don’t need to be more specific

[dry narwhal]

you could get devotion, or you might get the claw

[dense root]

any amulet should be able to turn into devotion if you’re lucky yes

[last thistle]

sick. cheers

[dry narwhal]

it just doesn't do boss drops which is explainable

[wide garnet]

I am permanently stuck at a main story quest and I have tried everything I can think of. What is the best way to get help? Support ticket or something else?

[dry narwhal]

what quest

[dense root]

i’d bug report it at the very least

!bug

[ripe brook]

Please post bug reports on our forum: https://forum.lastepoch.com/c/bug-reports. Thank you. :smile:

[dry narwhal]

^do that but im curious

[wide garnet]

The Immortal Empire -> "Find the Outcasts in the Risen Lake" Did it 5+ times after zone switching, restarting etc, but when I find the outcasts the blinking indicator will not move to the NPC that triggers the fight to proceed in the quest and when I talk to the NPC, she will go through the dialogue that takes place normally during the quest but then there are no mobs spawning for the fight

[dense root]

weird

[pastel garnet]

is changing zones in party still bugged?

[strong ferry]

since last 30 mins seems to work...

[dry narwhal]

likely but what made my friend and i get through it was one person go through, then other person portaled to that player

[dry narwhal]

that blows

[wide garnet]

So bug report is the best way to get help for stuck quest at this point? I was hoping for a more expedited sort of thing 😦

[supple crag]

I've been at the queue for over an hour now what in the fawk is going on

[dry narwhal]

Unfortunately, theres just so many issues at the moment

there's no way they can expedite anyone

the only general suggestion is relog and it might work, or you might just not be able to get back in at all

[quartz stone]

Anyone got a recommendation for a place to farm in act 9? Echos aren't working for me today, it just spins on connecting. I'm about level 59 but I honestly forgot what zones are around my level.

[dry narwhal]

i've never tried farming act 9 lol

[quartz stone]

I hear you, its either don't play or farm in act 9 though

[dry narwhal]

yeah

[quartz stone]

I know you got something for me!

[dry narwhal]

i guess just find a big ass zone

[quartz stone]

Can you give me a name i'm having trouble finding where to go lmfao

I can't remember what timeline it was

[dry narwhal]

im not in the game

[quartz stone]

ah well appreciate you replying

[dry narwhal]

like the 2nd to last aread or so

[hasty scaffold]

does flat spell damage make consecrated ground dot stronger?

[dry narwhal]

it does

[last thistle]

omg smite cast from a throwing attack hit doesnt use mana. Ive been crafting -mana cost on my sceptre for nothing

whole ass prefix slot wasted, huge dmg inc

[quartz stone]

The oasis, Maj'elka, Divine era. lvl 55. Found it

[dry narwhal]

yeah that

[narrow ibex]

does respeccing your skills upgrades costs you a point?

[dry narwhal]

it lowers the skills level down to their minimum level

[last thistle]

u de-level the skill, but u get a boost to level it back up faster

[dry narwhal]

which is determined by your character level

[edgy mural]

I've started getting some dungeon keys but am only level 60, can I just run them as I get them or is it wise to wait for certain level / power breakpoints before using them?

[potent loom]

is hammer throw better than holy trail nowadays?

[dry narwhal]

depends on hammer but no

holy trail is stupid strong lol

[meager socket]

so im trying to get to age of winter on top right, i ran ending the storm twice but im not able to opne the path

whats the logic here?

[dry narwhal]

you gotta do reign of dragons first

[meager socket]

oof

so i need to do fall of empires first also

[last thistle]

yes

[meager socket]

becaus thats the only path open after ending the storm

yikes

[brave ibex]

Nah

You can go Ending the Storm -> Reign of Dragons

Depends on if you kill Liath or not

[narrow ibex]

so the skill levels are independent from passive skills?

[meager socket]

not sure what this means

[last thistle]

I uh dont get the question

[dry narwhal]

yes

[brave ibex]

You get the option to kill Liath, or leave her alone

[meager socket]

when?

[acoustic ruin]

anyone encounter not being able to move? Im kinda just sitting here, cant use dash or move, i can use all other abilities lol

[brave ibex]

In one of the quest echoes

[meager socket]

oh so you actrually have to read and pick one of the different dialogs?

[brave ibex]

Yes, you actually have to read

[meager socket]

toxic

so i need to kill her

[wide garnet]

!bug

[ripe brook]

Please post bug reports on our forum: https://forum.lastepoch.com/c/bug-reports. Thanks!

[meager socket]

i think its the 2nd echo has an npc dialog at the end

[brave ibex]

It'll say in the dialogue like "Side with Liath (unlocks xyz timeline)" or something

[dry narwhal]

sounds correect

[meager socket]

this boss always drops the same ring?

is there anythingn different?

got like 4 of em

[dry narwhal]

yes he has several

they just require different levels of corruption to farm

[old trail]

anybody know why the new areas im entering have parts that are pre-explored?

[dry narwhal]

map bug

[keen lily]

Is that new Dagger for melee explosive Arrow like super rare? Or qucik farmable?

[dry narwhal]

its not rare

[keen lily]

Ok so I can start something Ranger and should have it when I reach Echos?

[dry narwhal]

i got 2 back to back with runes of ascendance on the mp test a few weeks back

i wouldn't necessarily go that far

[keen lily]

okay sweet.

[dry narwhal]

it's not rare, doesn't mean it will drop for one character immediately

if you're willing to play det arrow with a bow though

bleed detonating arrow is strong

[shrewd valve]

my queue has transformed into this, a good sign surely.

https://tenor.com/view/copium-meme-pepe-frog-gif-26117735

[tidal thicket]

restarting steam worked for me

[shrewd valve]

nice try

im saying my queue went from 3000+, to now initializing

sounds like im past queue but its not really getting in there

[tidal thicket]

i didn't ever get to the initialising part. i was 20k+ in queue, restarted steam, straight in

[shrewd valve]

no way

[brave ibex]

Yeah also have gotten in by restarting game after 15k+ queue

That's the only way I've gotten in since launch actually

[noble zodiac]

how do I check the damage of my Holy Trail without having to go into the Skill Menu? the tooltip for **Javelin **isn't updated to show Holy Trail on it

[shrewd valve]

post screenshot of ur mouse over ur chars face as proof of this incredible statement pls

[shrewd valve]

[shrewd valve]

do pets run on different armor values? this seems like a lot when i compare it to my own

[native sail]

Yes they do

[lethal egret]

i assume shock's stun bonus is additive with regular "your damage has increased chance to stun"? or does it reduce stun avoidance?

[next coral]

a question are Queue times till borked?

[tidal thicket]

restart steam

[shrewd valve]

just restarting the game did it for me

[rancid valve]

My minion UI disappeared ? its a bug or i can turn it on again?

[thorn ermine]

dungeons still bugged? I got a bunch of keys. What about Arena? Bugged too?

[burnt galleon]

does anyone have a problem with party chat ?

it didn't work at all

and I couldn't whisper with the player once he joined my party either

[neon birch]

What happens if I party with my friend who is 20 levels below me? If I join them, do they still get exp the same?

[bright hatch]

I unlocked my town portal. Opened it, returned to town, but now I don't see a portal to go back to where I was at.

[shrewd valve]

i like the way i sorted my stash

[native sail]

You won't affect their exp gain at all. The only thing that affects exp is difference between character level and the area level

[agile needle]

Is there a way to fix warpath feeling clunky online? it just bugs out when you click it and goes when you're not holding it, and causes my character to desync badly

[native sail]

Hold the button instead of clicking. You're not supposed to click and go, it's a bug.

[agile needle]

I am holding it down, but even sometimes if I let go it keeps spinning

and i get stuck in place unless I use another move

[native sail]

Well shit, might be worse than before then. Should fix if you click s- yeah that

[agile needle]

So now I have to find a move that is really fast to cancel with 💀

[spark timber]

for confirmation, anyone else able to replicate this?

Equipped Horned Staff (+1 to all minion skills)
-> spend skill point in one minion skill tree -> can't spend that point in other skill trees

Seems like horned staff only gives a single Skill point across all minion skills, instead of +1 to all skills.

[tidal thicket]

i lunge into a pack, warpath by holding right-click and then left click (move only) to cancel. seems to be working okay

[nocturne nebula]

Lvling druid with totems. When should i swap to cold dot?

[native sail]

Try allocating anyway, I know there's a visual bug with added skillpoints to things

[spark timber]

ah, let me try that

[agile needle]

I wish that worked for me, left click to walk doesn't cancel it sadly

[spark timber]

...gotta restart the game first though, i kinda crashed it x3

[spark timber]

confirmed, it's that bug.

[native sail]

Thought so. Might be a bug report on forums already, if not feel free to make one

[narrow ibex]

my totems and wolves stopped showing in the top left corner, how can I fix that please?

[native sail]

Visual bug, known problem

[tidal thicket]

I can't see items on the floor anymore. can't find a hotkey to re-enable either. any ideas?

[unreal ice]

can rune of ascendance upgrade an item into a boss/dungeon unique?

[patent jay]

anyone know if Arcane Ascendance can proc Dragon Mage/Breath as a lightning skill? It does lightning damage but doesn't have a lightning scaling tag

[native sail]

Z or alt+Z

[tidal thicket]

tHANKS

[native sail]

No it cannot, it can only roll into random drop uniques.

[unreal ice]

thanks

[native sail]

You aren't the first don't worry

[native sail]

Anytime

[tidal thicket]

I don't even have an alt key on my keyboard so not sure how I toggled it off

[native sail]

It's inconsistent about if it is just Z or alt+Z, for me it's just Z, for others it's default to alt+Z

[tidal thicket]

Is there a way to see how much flat physical damage i have? I've no idea whether it's worth me taking increased phys % currently as i'm so early on in the game

[native sail]

Flat is generally far more useful than increased early on

[zenith ingot]

Anyone got a loot filter for Holy trail paldin? the maxroll lootfilter link is broken.

[native sail]

Can't say I do, haven't played it

[urban hornet]

Hey someone know if the dev gonna fix the hc character who die not be transfer to soft core and beeng transfer to solo self ?

[thorn ermine]

why is flat armor usually better than %armor? I feel like % armor only increases the added flat armor you already have, not your base armor of your character.

[snow idol]

My hotbar keeps getting overwritten when I change zones. Is this a known issue and is there a workaround?

[minor vigil]

of course they're going to fix it lol

[native sail]

YOu need both tbf. But yeah, you need flat usually because increase has effective diminshing returns

[spring bone]

Ayo anyone noticed that we cant see out crit multi?

[thorn ermine]

like look at this. My total armor amount would benefit nicely from the 14%, but my current boots of +37 armor and an additional 45 armor from implicits beats out the 14% by 200 total armor. The % armor only boosts flat added armor on your gear.

so it's basically never worthwhile to have because you need +armor too, whereas %health boosts total health (I believe).

[brave ibex]

That is how any % increase works in this game

[thorn ermine]

not really lol. Health doesn't. Phys dmg bonus doesn't.

[pure mural]

anyone know how to fix this right when i launch the game i dont even click connect or nothing

[native sail]

No that is legitimately how % increases work

If you only stack % health you'll get paltry returns from it

The more you stack % increased phys the worse it gets, you need % more and flat

[brave ibex]

Explain how you think phys dmg % works

[gray shuttle]

Anyone with loot filter problem? Have 3 filters in the folder, didnt show any inside the game

[thorn ermine]

wouldn't 10% increased health on 1k flat hp be 1100 HP?

[native sail]

No because you don't have 1k flat HP

[thorn ermine]

nm phys dmg bonus works like that, my mistake. Health doesn't seem to though.

whatever my flat HP is, let's say I strip my char.

if I put on a 15% health modifier.

it should go up by 15% right

[mint verge]

boulder fist 2 legendary potential gloves what does this mean

anyone ^^

[open cloak]

So how do i resurrect my HC character to a softcore ounce it died seems to be stuck in self found?

[native sail]

Hit G, check the tab that says Legendary Items

[native sail]

Known bug

[mint verge]

thanks

[native sail]

I'd give an explanation but I'm trying to hold a conversation and play :P

[mint verge]

no p bro thanks ill figure it out

[thorn ermine]

ok I figured it out. % increase armor passives were screwing with it. It's additive with the passives.

[ripe hinge]

hey guys quick question. In order to get to reign of dragons, do I need to go through ending the storm?

I fucking hate dialogue, and so I clicked fast and don't know if I had to choose location

[native sail]

All increases of the same type are additive with each other, that's how it works. % spell damage is additive with % phys damage on a phys spell. % ele damage is additive with % fire damage. Hopefully this is clear

[uncut gate]

hey guys, in the warpath node moving forge, at max lvl how often does it summon forge weapons pls...

[thorn ermine]

Yeah it's clear, I just forgot about the passives after stripping my char.

[native sail]

Gotcha, no worries. Just wanted to make sure there was no confusion

[wide trench]

question: playing as beast master - unlocked mastery, got raptor, why cant i summon 3 raptors? Is that specific mechanic, I still need 2 wolfs and 1 raptor?

[ripe hinge]

Summoning wolves up to the companion limit is a wolf mechanic via your skill tree

or via an item

companions don't naturally do that

but you could get a bear if u like, for example

[turbid jay]

I've been in queue for about 4 hours now, should I restart my game or is it working fine?

[tidal thicket]

yes restart steam and game

[wide trench]

ok so then these tooltips are misleading?

[river geode]

Hi friends, because of a bug i'm stuck in The Dreadnought's deck (the tp doesn't appear because i already took it but crashed at the same time) Anyone can add me in the game and party with me and go to the Shinning cove to let me portal to him ? It would be very nice please 😦 🙏

[open cloak]

Hit T

[crimson drift]

does the ammount of stability that i get inside one echo in the monolity affects the final loot?

[ripe hinge]

well no, it's 2 companions

[wide trench]

I dont see any passive or wolf summon skill that says that

[ripe hinge]

just not of the same type

[frail hemlock]

hey, I finished chapter 8 but then quit the game before i got the waypoint in Soreth'Ka - now I can't get there. Is my campaign just screwed now? I can't get to a zone to continue it

[wide trench]

Doh im blind thanks 😄

[slender fjord]

this is all that happens after doing lvl 90 monos, cant unlock empowered. really wish it would be fixed as its stifling my character progression

[river geode]

It dosn't work, it tp me to the Outcast camp, because for the game i actually never go to the shinning cove

[ripe hinge]

np dude

[placid wigeon]

what constitutes a minion skill is that the skills the minions use or just a skill i havent unlocked yet?

[ripe hinge]

skills have tags. You can mouse the skills tags in the s menu

[placid wigeon]

oh gotcha, thanks

[dreamy forge]

I'm in queue but the number isn't moving, is that normal

[placid wigeon]

i restarted a couple of times and it fixed it @dreamy forge

[dry narwhal]

yeah the queue doesnt actually seem to work

[frosty sentinel]

How do alt characters work in LE? Do I have to clear the campaign every time?

[dreamy forge]

fixed how? I'm just a different number in the queue now lol

[stark lagoon]

can i not rebind left mouse button?

[placid wigeon]

oh im not sure i was stuck on the same number and restarted a couple of times in a row and got in

[native sail]

It's bugged but when it is fixed you can't bind a skill to it.

[dreamy forge]

Ah yeah that worked. thanks!

[glossy moat]

how does this game play on steamdeck?

[dry narwhal]

according to a few people it's good

[glossy moat]

nice

[dry narwhal]

but it is not supported by EHG

[obsidian cypress]

Hi all. If i have "You have a chance to ignite enemies with melee attacks" do i need to be doing fire damage in order to actually ignite or will any damage ignite?

[native sail]

Any as long as it's melee

[dry narwhal]

^

[obsidian cypress]

perfect

thanks

[white lake]

What would be a recommended Sentinel Build for the main campaign? Havent played in over a year so I am out of the loop on what is solid and what is underpowered

[dry narwhal]

anything will work really 🙂

i wouldn't recomend multistrike personally for levelling

[white lake]

Yeah I am guessing I am mostly wondering what subclass I will have the easiest time with

I seem to remember forge guard be pretty weak compared to the other two, but I dont know anymore

[native sail]

Holy Trail Pally is doing very well apparently

[dry narwhal]

thats about the same

pally or vk, you can't go wrong

[white lake]

word, thanks guys!

[river solstice]

Queue not moving for anyone else?

[zenith cobalt]

a question i reached monoliths and are level 27 what im supposed to do as monoliths says level 58 o.O?

[burnt galleon]

you did not finish the campaign

follow the questline a bit more :)

[slate aurora]

hi. i killed the kraken and got all my idols/passives. what will i get by continuing the campaing please?

[zenith cobalt]

you mean the silver Quests ?

[native sail]

You get +1 to all attributes by compelting it

[acoustic thicket]

am I missing something? lightning bolt is instantly cast up on landing, are there nonsense talents like this because of early access or is it me

[burnt galleon]

not the gold ones, the npc that give you your mastery class should also open a portal once you've chose your mastery. Go inside of it to continue the campaig,

[slate aurora]

how much more is there after kraken?

[meager socket]

these cant roll the boss specific uniques right?

[zenith cobalt]

will i end arround 50 ish when i finished all silver quests?

[native sail]

Correct.

[narrow ibex]

anyone expirienced with primalist builds who would give me some advices?)

[burnt galleon]

there are still a lot of gold quests left

[meager socket]

is there a "go-to" base i should use it on. dont particularly need any atm

[zenith cobalt]

monoliths are equivalent to maps in poe right?

[burnt galleon]

but yes you should get to 45-50 before the end of the campaign

yes

[zenith cobalt]

mhh kinda confusing how i reached monoliths with lvl 27

[uneven stone]

strongboxes are not highlighted, is intended?

[native sail]

It just rolls off item type and that's it. Lotsa folks go for shields to try and get uber lucky Bastion

[native sail]

Because they let you start as soon as you reach the area if you wish to so that it isn't super rigid like PoE campaign

[amber token]

can i switch global chat ch. in this game

[native sail]

Not yet, sadly

[amber token]

i need global 1

[narrow ibex]

can you still cast spells in werebear form?

[zenith cobalt]

im kinda stuck i have no real quest showing anymore beside of monolith stuff and aint sure what to do now

[hearty monolith]

is it normal minimap does not show anything? just started game new

[thorn ermine]

k so % armor increase is additive with str's % armor increase as well, good to know.

[native sail]

Yup, attributes are effectively converted to be generic modifiers to whatever stat they are effecting

Like strength on a skill scaling via strength just gets converted to a generic % increased stat for it

[minor vigil]

Bug

[thorn ermine]

yep makes sense. At least vitality gives u straight HP so there's no additive %health there

[native sail]

Yeah, vit is just straight up flat health. Very nice.

[thorn ermine]

%health seems overall better than %armor on gear. Fewer passives with % health and no vit % health base.

[native sail]

Well think about it this way, we don't use resistance affixes most of the time. Generally we fill suffixes with hybrid health/increased health/flat health, whichever is available

Hybrid is better than increased

[thorn ermine]

o ya for sure.

max resistance passives and I guess fill rest in with idols, if you're lucky.

[native sail]

Blessings, gear implicits, passives, lots of ways to do so

[thorn ermine]

true

[pastel pebble]

Resistances are for cowards

[native sail]

True. Real shit is running with 0% poison and then wondering why you died to the 40 poison stacks

[mystic abyss]

should i do quest echoes asap or does it matter

if i save to do all 3

[brave ibex]

Doesn't matter

[native sail]

You can just save it's fine

[zenith cobalt]

how i continue im lv 27 and done with quests O.o ??? is this game supposed to let me lvl in a lv 19 area to 58 or whats the games plan?

[native sail]

Uh... your quest tracker is bugged, you ain't done

Oh wait no it isn't

Go back to End of Time

[zenith cobalt]

both quests there shown only done in monolith?

[native sail]

Go up the ramp

[acoustic thicket]

yo hello anyone happen to have a werebear build thats viable for a newer player gonna give the new MP update a go with a friend

[zenith cobalt]

here?

[thorn ermine]

I wish we could gain more passive points post 100, like paragon. Always feels great to fill up more of your tree. Not sure how D4 is gonna do it.

[native sail]

No, go to the end of time waypoint

Then go to the ramp sorta to the north-westish

[dusky minnow]

still no backpackk cosmetic 😦

[zenith cobalt]

ahhh and then into imperial era?

[native sail]

It spawned a portal for you yeah?

Just go through it. I think imperial is right, but yeah.

[zenith cobalt]

yea it let me choose my mastery ascendancy or how it called here

[native sail]

Mastery, yup

[acoustic thicket]

would and 8.5 build s till work for werebear or has to much chnaged?

[native sail]

You should be good to go now

[native sail]

Should still function for the most part. Rage sustain might be tougher now though.

Anyway, to anime I go, dipping from question answering for now.

[acoustic thicket]

alright so uhm the strengt stacking cold dot on lasteppochtools should stil lbe good?

[narrow ibex]

anyone has a little bit of time to give me some build advice please?

[native sail]

Last thing before I go, Dr3adful has an updated video iirc

[thorn ermine]

what does the blue meter mean? How high the roll was relative to max?

[minor vigil]

That's right

[thorn ermine]

that's reallly strange lol. Usually you use meters for smooth %s, not to indicate a 25-40% range for example.

As if they want you to keep redoing bosses over and over to fill that blue meter which is probably impossible for most blessings.

[novel ocean]

Question, Alts, how quickly can you lvl up another character if you want to swap later?

[brave ibex]

Quickly if you know what you're doing

[novel ocean]

Cool ty, im debating between druid and lich for first character

both seem cool

[minor vigil]

Druid has more options

There is an annoying bug with druid rn tho that will hopefully be fixed in a cpl days

[turbid jay]

Speaking of druid, are you able to swap your abilities around on your hotbar somehow?

When transformed?

[novel ocean]

@minor vigil hmm what bug is that?

[pastel garnet]

i am a bit confused by the description of glacier

is this old/typo?

the text mension x1, x2 and x4 damage effectivness for added damage

[nocturne nebula]

Lvling druid with totems. When should i swap to cold dot?

[pastel garnet]

the numbers at the end are 100, 172 and 350 for SPELL damage effectivness

which is correct?

[native sail]

That's an interesting one. Might need to ask Mike on that.

[last thistle]

those are the same thing right

[native sail]

Each timeline has exclusive nodes to it. Like that one.

[last thistle]

alright, cool

[slender fjord]

any fix found for being unable to unlock empowered timelines

[violet terrace]

apparently this "The Ruined Temple" section isn't working, I'm clicking on these bridge devices but they're not activating or even giving the prompt, I've been to the left AND right, and gotten both seal things

[last thistle]

is that a thing rn? did u complete the three lvl 90 islands and clicked on stone

[slender fjord]

thats the issue it wont let me click on the stone

but yes all 3 90s are done

[last thistle]

damn, are others having same issue

[slender fjord]

if i portal out and back into the center island this happens and i have to alt f4

yea

[last thistle]

thats annoying ngl

[slender fjord]

extremely

been like that since last night too

so im just kinda like stuck til they fix it. gonna level another character in the mean time i guess but it sucks

[rocky summit]

Are there any Monoliths that are better for farming Idols, or is that still up to RNG these days?

[minor vigil]

rn if you change zones while transformed, your human hotbar gets wiped

which is very bad

[magic prawn]

does this node in the focus tree apply to ignites from other sources too (the less damage taken part) ?

[barren minnow]

Is there a way to check for roll ranges of implicit modifiers with an item filter?

[rapid onyx]

hello all, is it normal that during party play, it take ages to transition from one map to another?

[brave ibex]

Not currently

[deep gull]

Question about the multiplayer - me and my wife are able to connect and play just fine, but we get very frequent "lost connection" errors during area transitions, usually for whoever isn't party leader. We can't go through more than one or two zones without one of us d/cing. Do we know if this is a server issue, or could it be our internet? Just want to know before we try and troubleshoot.

Either way, keep up the amazing work LE team, don't let the trolls get you down - we see how hard you're working and I can't wait for the game to stabilize so I can dive into the game!

[slate aurora]

how do you reset an echo? im on my first echo, reached endboss, but cant kill him with gimp build/gear

[mild shore]

What would you guys suggest for a first character to learn the basics of the game? I'm considering buying it

[wraith abyss]

For legendary crafting, for a 2H weapon does it have to be the same type (e.g. axe) or just any 2h?

[wild wraith]

Any fixes incoming for LE-51 error code?

[brave ibex]

Same type

[acoustic nymph]

Question for the community here. How do you guys balance flat damage vs % damage increase? I struggle understanding what items can be upgrades in situations with this comes up

Similar vain, Armor vs Physical Resistance, wouldn't armor just be better in all situations?

[brave ibex]

Flat damage is generally much harder to get, so should be prioritised wherever you can get it. It can depend on the build though.

[brave ibex]

The question isn't armor vs physical res, it's "how much armor can I get, while also having capped physical res"

[acoustic nymph]

Physical res just responds to effects like Bleed then?

Not so much how much the mobs hit me for?

[brave ibex]

Any physical damage, hits or bleeds

[acoustic nymph]

So there's overlap then

[proud dust]

does this stack with amount of maelstroms?

[brave ibex]

Most defenses overlap in some way, you're supposed to layer them

[native sail]

There's overlap across everything with armor. Armor mitigates all damage from hits but is only 70% effective against non-phys damage.

[acoustic nymph]

Thank you 👍

[tired ivy]

Why are some items on the round fading away, really annoying

Ok, fixed by unpluging controller

[pearl yarrow]

Quick question, can we use a game pad?

[native sail]

Yes

[pearl yarrow]

Yes to game pad?

[native sail]

Mhm

[pearl yarrow]

Great thank you.

Was looking to purchase the game

[native sail]

It has some targeting issues as they are still fully fleshing it out but it's fairly usable.

[pearl yarrow]

Great thanks

[tired ivy]

Definitely playable, but there is better build than other for it

[ripe fossil]

is pushing super high arena actually worth it?

[boreal merlin]

anybody else experienced being stuck after killing the idol and going through the ancient portal? This is happening to both my characters

[acoustic nymph]

is there a way I can see a skills direct damage instead of DPS?

[native sail]

Not sure what you mean

[somber perch]

Anybody else has unplayable frame rate? I played 1.5 years ago last time and it was as bad back then. 10 FPS just in the menu. Can barely move my mouse. Don't have any issues in other games.

Quality is set to Very Low

[bright ice]

at what lvl does one typically complete the campaign?

[turbid spear]

If I choose 66, can I still unlock 62 later?

[bold summit]

Hey ^^ would anyone happen to know, is there a good place to farm specifically for the +chance to cast smite when hit with throwing spells idols for Paladin?

[primal needle]

So trying to login and there is over 4k in Queue... after 15 mins the number isn't dropping this normal? I understand the patch just came out and there alot of people looking to play online.... but

[brave ibex]

Yeah you can just run the timeline again

[quick ore]

I got in easy a couple hours ago where my friend had to wait in the queue.

[quick ore]

right now I'm currently #0 in the queue so I am unsure.

[narrow ibex]

when do you unlock the subclass?

I am lvl 30 and I dont have it yet

[somber perch]

Is there a way to show FPS counter?

[brave ibex]

Usually around 20-25, it happens as part of the main quest

[somber perch]

Very frustrating to come back and see the game is still in unplayable state due to performance issues 😦 Seems to be a great game otherwise

[tranquil nimbus]

must be overleveled. You get it when you get to end of time

[native sail]

F11

[real osprey]

help me all my gear just disappeared, and my name changed somehow

[sand badge]

restart the game client

it's a known bug

[turbid spear]

ty

[random badger]

Is there any way to show all text at once in dialogue and not continue to the next message? I want to read stuff but I don't want to wait 5 seconds between every message >:

[somber perch]

Starting area FPS lol

Like wth

How did it go past QA

Is there are fix everybody is using?

[random badger]

A better PC I guess?

[last badger]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[sand badge]

dunno, I'm running 120 stable everywhere so far

[somber perch]

Even Hogwarts runs fine on my machine

[random badger]

Yeah, no FPS issues here either

[somber perch]

What settings are you using?

[sand badge]

I'm on high settings with a 3060ti

at 1440p

[random badger]

2070, 1440p, mix of medium and high atm and pretty solid 144 FPS

which I've set as max

[somber perch]

Weird. Do you use Geforce Experience optimized settings?

[random badger]

Not intentionally if so 😄

[sand badge]

absolutely not no

99% of the time in my experience, they screw me over

[somber perch]

Something must be wrong. If I had 20 fps and you had 120fps that's maybe understandable. But 2 is clearly something gone wrong

[sand badge]

yeah something clearly isn't working correctly

what does your gpu and cpu usage say?

[random badger]

Yeah, 2 definitely feels like something is off

[last thistle]

Is there any benefit of having chance to apply frostbite on a hammerdin smite build?

[sand badge]

uhhhh I'd definitely go check my gpu temp if I were you

[somber perch]

Why? GPU running at 100% is fine

[sand badge]

combined with 2fps though?

[somber perch]

Well that's what I'm saying, something is broken

[sand badge]

yeah and you should make sure it isn't your computer

[somber perch]

I run PoE at 100+ fps most of the time

It's literally the only game I have an issue

[sand badge]

yeah but it isn't the memory or the cpu throttling your performance

it's clearly something else

start looking into that

[acoustic thicket]

Maybe check priority settings on task manager. A while ago some of my games priority were set to low so performance was booty

[pseudo niche]

The only time I've seen my GPU at 95%+ is when a PoE update somehow broke vsync for me and it was also running 90c+, maybe vsync is causing a similar issue for you and LE? All I can think of off the top of my head

[somber perch]

I turned off vsync because someone on reddit says it slows down performance. But either way makes no difference

[acoustic thicket]

Last epoch runs on my 3080 with 200+fps and it runs on my laptop at 60 so your system is defs doing something to your game

[sand badge]

yup this is the first time I'm hearing about this issue at all this patch

[somber perch]

Maybe I inherited some settings from the last patch

The patch 2 years ago I mean

[pseudo niche]

Yeah my PoE could easily run higher fps before...now I must have vsync on or fry my pc..thought it was worth a mention just in case

[acoustic thicket]

Inherited the < 2 fps

[somber perch]

Are you running borderless window or fullscreen?

[acoustic thicket]

I’ve never seen fps issues on last epoch since 2019

I run fullscreen

[daring mauve]

Is it a common issue for the Que # to be 0 and stuck?

[acoustic thicket]

Sometimes birderless if streaming

[sand badge]

I had fps issues on my 970 ages ago, but that was a spec problem 😅

[daring mauve]

#0 in queue for quite some time

[acoustic thicket]

@somber perch wats ur gpu?

[sand badge]

earlier today, it was said that queue is working but the displayed number is not

[somber perch]

1660

[daring mauve]

big rip I reset it a few times trying to fix it T_T

ty

[somber perch]

Does LE support DLSS?

[sand badge]

no but that doesn't matter since your card doesn't

[acoustic thicket]

For everyone with nvidia gpu. Don’t update the drivers to the latest ones

[somber perch]

Yeah it does, I run DLSS in other games

[acoustic thicket]

I wud suggest downgrading gpu drivers back to 3 updates prior to the latest one

[somber perch]

So tired of this community being toxic. It's not the hardware, I play all the other games just fine.

[daring mauve]

community seems fine to me

[half falcon]

stuck at 0 in queue anyone get past this? or stuck forever?

[daring mauve]

apparently displayed # is incorrect

[somber perch]

Why? What happened with the updates? I actually haven't update drivers in a while, maybe that's the issue

[acoustic thicket]

Even tho ur other games run fine. Some games may find issues with certain driver updates

[somber perch]

Specifically about performance. When I raised the same issue 2 years ago when performance was bad for everyone I was still shat on for having "a bad PC"

[acoustic thicket]

Like eg. my cyberpunk and all AAA titles run amazingly but then Valorant and like mine craft shat itself with the latest update due to issues unknown. But I rerolled the update back to a few updates ago and it’s all g now

[daring mauve]

that's just internet culture, nothing behavioral to dictate a toxic community

[acoustic thicket]

Nvidia has some terrible updates so just be aware

[daring mauve]

also alot of the issues are due to software confliction / insufficient hardware

[lunar ember]

Is it normal that im Hardcore Solo after dying in Hardcore?

[acoustic thicket]

Just try installing nvidia drivers released early January this year

[daring mauve]

I've fixed my PC a number of times simply by changing out the thermal paste every few years

[vagrant wigeon]

Does it get easier to level up de-leveled/respec'd skills later on?

[dense root]

yes

[somber perch]

With Hogwarts Legacy someone posted a config file that improved performance 2-3x times, was hoping it's the same with LE

[dense root]

once you're at the highest tier of monoliths it will take a single echo to level up a skill to max

[vagrant wigeon]

No way :OOOOO

ty

[sand badge]

Nobody here was saying you have a bad PC, what was said is that there's a problem with how your computer processes the game that you need to troubleshoot through every avenue you can 😛

whatever the root cause is, other people aren't currently having it

[somber perch]

Funny thing is it used to run better before this patch, like I could still play even tho sometimes it would drop to 10 FPS

Here is my post from 2 years ago lol https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/high-gpu-usage/21056/5?u=jginz

[dense root]

so like the game obviously still needs optimization in a lot of ways

but also i'm using a computer i built nearly a decade ago and haven't upgraded at all since

and the game runs completely fine

you don't need something super powerful

[somber perch]

Well that gives me hope at least

[narrow ibex]

how can I cast my spells in bear form?

[smoky geyser]

uh my game crashed and my char disappeared what do i do now

[acoustic thicket]

That’s due to the fact that so many people struggled with performance issues. But Last epoch hasn’t shown any so there wasn’t much reason to warrant a fix for the games performance.
I’m at work so can’t help much but just try chrfk task manager priority settings, set battery plan to ultra performance, clear %temp% file and etc. validate last epoch files on steam, check that your fps settings for LE on nvidia control panel is set to application controlled instead of global.

And also turn off game mode and all those stupid Xbox settings on ur windows settings

[rotund agate]

Anyone able to help with an ingame issue? My character is blocked from picking mastery. I press Confirm here, but then talk to Elder Gaspar again and he makes me pick again.

[sand badge]

Side note, dungeons were not a thing when I played last - should I care about them at all while levelling through the campaign?

[wet scroll]

What/where do i farm for the "Frozen Ire" ? level 72 rn

[dense root]

you won't be able to enter them

they require keys for entry

[sand badge]

fair enough, just saw it on the map

[shrewd lily]

so if we are #0 in queue we should keep waiting right?

[dense root]

yeah they're accessible during leveling because you can skip portions of the story on your second character if you beat the dungeon

[sand badge]

can't remember if I have a reason to go this way

[waxen idol]

hi is there something like auction house ? when i can trade items or buy items from other players ?

[dense root]

but you won't have keys on your first character so

[dense root]

not at the moment but a version of trade is coming

[silk snow]

The warpath skill specialization that summons forged weapons, it say it summons forged weapons as if forge strike did so. Does that mean specializations in forge strike synergize with this specific warpath specialization?

[dense root]

there's a post on their website about trade

[desert quest]

Yes. Forged weapons summoned by warpath will get bonuses from Forge Strike tree unless stated otherwise.

I think currently all the bonuses work.

[clear hedge]

is the queue legit now? or should i be relogging to get in?

[humble spire]

is there a way to apply Shred Cold Resistance as a Necro?

[desert tree]

I think there is a blessing for that

[dense root]

there's a blessing for each type of res shred i think yeah

[somber perch]

What do you mean FPS settings in control panel?

[devout pier]

currently trying to find the LFG chat and cant, as a support this sucks :D anyone mind letting me know rq to save me from googling .-.

[somber perch]

Pretty sure that the issue is that the game runs out of VRAM

[silk snow]

I'm #0 in the que?

[acoustic crag]

how can i achieve filter with specific affix+ 1of the list?
like boots with movement speed + any resists

[junior bane]

did the servers die again ?

[somber perch]

Was #0 in queue now #82 😄

[somber elm]

Any from Romania add me pls to play togheters !!

[hasty tartan]

I went from #0 to #843

[amber token]

u can trade right???

[native sail]

No.

[somber perch]

No trading yet?

[native sail]

No.

!trade

[ripe brook]

TRADE NEWS! https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/trade-development-update-introducing-merchants-guild-and-circle-of-fortune-factions/51994

[vestal raft]

492 is the new 0

[ancient pagoda]

Is there any up to date videos on a Leveling Loot Filters or any place to share/download leveling filters to learn how they work and change them over time?

[dense root]

you can only gift items to people who were in your group when the item dropped

no normal trade though

[molten idol]

how did i go from 0 i queue to 783?

[somber perch]

Why is everybody playing multiplayer then? Do you guys have friends that play LE?

[native sail]

Yes.

[amber token]

no friends 😦

[native sail]

Some of us don't play because of some imaginary money

[tranquil nimbus]

No

tbh it feels like a league start so I'm having fun

[narrow ibex]

can you eventually obtain access to all subclasses tree?

[native sail]

Only the one you specialize in

[drifting saffron]

I finally able to play

[dense root]

i have friends that play yeah

[native sail]

The others you only get the first half

[somber perch]

Not money, but trading items is cool

[drifting saffron]

Any1 playing sorcerer build?

[somber perch]

Game economy is half the fun

[native sail]

You can't trade items for items in this game sooooo

Good luck

[old sand]

Did you wait for the queue ? or restart game ?

[narrow ibex]

there are some guides putting points into other trees aswell

[native sail]

You didn't read what I said

[drifting saffron]

I restarted steam

[drifting saffron]

And i double check

No more queue

[narrow ibex]

I didnt understand it probably, sorry 😄

[drifting saffron]

I created an online character

[hexed bay]

WoW! 1,423 in queue.. this queue is new..

[autumn plover]

how good does my gear need to be after the campaign to start monolith?

feel like i just have random stuff equipped

[dense root]

you finished chapter 9?

[autumn plover]

ye

[dense root]

the early monoliths are easier than chapter 9

[autumn plover]

word thx

[olive summit]

How long does queue usually take im number 1569

[honest sonnet]

anyone know where they moved the training dummy?

[old sand]

8k queue in Southeast Asia server 🥲

[honest sonnet]

ah should have searched first, apparently its champions gate for anyone wondering

[versed hatch]

I have gone from 350 down to 0 up to 760 then down to 330 and back to 621 now

[somber perch]

Is there a texture quality setting? I am pretty sure my performance issues are caused by LE running out of VRAM, but there is no setting to reduce texture size

[autumn plover]

when i get to monoliths is there a certain direction ur supposed to go or just whatever?

[gritty oxide]

i was down to 0, then up to 1250, then down to 1171 then up to 1192. it doesnt seem to be working

[stoic jetty]

any idea why my queue keeps reseting to 1079?

[gritty oxide]

hah mine just jumped back up to 1249. Queue is 1000% broken

[dense root]

the number doesn't matter

it's bugged but the queue is still letting people in slowly

[flint glen]

I'm stuck in position 0 for queue, is it a bug and I should restart my queue?

[cedar light]

For some people restarting the game lets them in instantly, but it's not a sure thing at all

[bright ice]

is there a way to get the game to recognize a diff audio output without restarting?

[vagrant wigeon]

It's been 5 minutes I'm kinda worried

[forest urchin]

I just restarted the game and it let me in instantly

[vagrant wigeon]

The Queue is a lie D;

[mighty shore]

been there 45 minutes

[vagrant wigeon]

Do I just yolo and restart and pray.

[forest urchin]

I just did it and got in

I was in queue for like 20 minutes
