About level 25 or so

[violet sluice]

like she charges it i wait til its as big as it gets then i swap eras and boom she follows instantly and kills me how do you avoid it if thats not waht youre supposed to do

[brisk cape]

sounds like you're swapping too late and dying to desync/lag etc

you can swap as soon as you see her start that mechanic and just wait for her

[violet sluice]

its instant for me at the beggining of the charge or the end

[brisk cape]

idk you'd have to record and show me what you mean

[dense root]

i’m not quite sure what you’re trying to describe either

all i know is julra has worked fine for me at least

[austere chasm]

LF Guide for leveling alt character and skipping campaign. Anyone know where one is?

[dense root]

idk if there’s a guide specifically for alts

[violet sluice]

ill stream on epoch chat 1 if someone could guide me on what i need to do that would be appreciated

[rose elk]

How do I empower echo?

[dense root]

really the only difference is you can use stuff from previous characters and can skip portions of the campaign via dungeon

[brisk cape]

finish all lv 90 echoes' bosses then return to the crossroads teleport that connects them and there will be a cutscene

[austere chasm]

RIght... but trying to figure out the best way to do that... like i dont even know where any of the dungeons are.

[novel perch]

does anyone know if there are reasons to go over 100% crit chance or 100% of a type of shred like armor shred?

[dense root]

i think if you right click the keys it opens the map and shows where to use them?

[native sail]

For shred you get more stacks per hit. For crit chance, literally no point

[brisk cape]

crit chance total no? shred yes

[dense root]

shred is an ailment and over 100% just means you get multiple stacks

[austere chasm]

yes... its' multiplicate... so for instance... if you had 300% chance to poison on hit... you would actually be applying 3 posions at once... same for shred

[novel perch]

alt kinda short cut is.. run through chap 7 with the frost deer grind some monos to lvl, run a temporal key and then finish ch 9 for all passives/idols then rush rest of monoliths to empowered.

[dense root]

you can definitely do temporal earlier than that

i normally do it right when i unlock that location on alts

[primal crystal]

wow...I just now figured out how to take the right & left paths in the monolith area. I fought the boss in the "Fall of the Outcasts" twice and was like "Why is this still level 58?"

Its unclear to newbies I guess that you have to go back to the "Monolith of Fate" waypoint to get to the paths that you open up after defeating the boss lol

[austere chasm]

Just found this, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzpumI6x7rw ... does this "guide" seem right?

[somber chasm]

new to this game. Cant decide between: paladin, void guard, bladedancer, druid, spellblade as my first playthrough. (Those i liked from the looks of the combat). Which one would you recommend? (Bearbeitet)

[dense root]

personally i like bladedancer and paladin the best out of that list i think but mostly just avoid shaman and you'll be fine

[pastel pebble]

Shaman is due for a rework is all

[austere chasm]

I've only played blade dancer... keep in mind that the poison builds have been ultra nerfed to the ground (you can still play them until you get to late game and would need to change if that is the play style your wanting).... most people seem to play the shadow blade versions. check maxroll.gg for what IM talking about

[eternal granite]

hi guys can i get adorned idol boost drop rate on fall of the outcast? trying to get SMITE idol

[native sail]

You can yes

[somber chasm]

is spellblade as bad as shaman?

[eternal granite]

how to unlock it?

[native sail]

Kill the boss and hope.

[eternal granite]

been doing fall of the outcast i dont see any adorned boost drop rate blessings

[native sail]

It does exist, I promise you that, just a matter of getting lucky enough to see it

[native sail]

Not really. It's got limited options but it works.

[eternal granite]

just keep doing fall of the outcast?

[native sail]

Pretty much. Go to empowered if you need to (it does help)

[keen hinge]

so probably a stupid question but when a piece of gear says #% increased elemental damage does the skill specifically have to have the tag "elemental damage"

[pastel pebble]

Yeah, Spellblade isn't quite as diverse as others are in build variety

[native sail]

Nope. Ele is a blanket term for cold/fire/lightning

[pastel pebble]

^

[keen hinge]

thanks

[pastel pebble]

A lot of it's pretty straightforward but can take a moment to get used to

Tag wise that is

[hasty aurora]

how to unlock enpower timeline ? i did unlock 3lvl 90 but the stone in the middle wont show up

[somber chasm]

any1 here who played both paladin and voidguard? Which one do you prefer between the two and why?

[pastel birch]

question, since uniques take the stats from the exalted when it becomes legendary, can I do that with a 3 line exalted to increase the chance if the unique only has 1 legendary potential?

[finite socket]

I don't mean for this to come off as negative, I love this game, but are there any build playstyles that feel a bit different to play than others? Most of the builds that played around with have had plastyles consisting of spamming one ability, or using a few 'preparation' abilties and then the main one. They feel samey. The combat flow and feel is my only mild gripe with this amazing game.

[empty cliff]

are Transient Rest boots bugged right now? I'm not gaining any ward when I stop moving

[empty cliff]

both are good. pally is a bit more survivable due to the huge life/ward on block, free endurance, etc. from Holy Aura but VK isnt a glass cannon by any means, but it relies more on leech

[somber chasm]

who did you have more fun with?

[empty cliff]

I usually go pally because holy aura is nice in MP and I like the aesthetic

[pastel birch]

I know Im new to the game but, on my druid I played a poison/minion build which constantly switch between 3 forms and maximizing active minions on field, very busy playstyle, also very effective from my experience. Definitely not spamming one button kind of build since you are managing 3 types of minions, and 8 other abilities at the same time

[somber chasm]

yh i usually do that in every mmo and game aswell kek

[spring raft]

apart from the 5th blessing slot, is there any other benefit to tiers of corruption other than a generic item rarity/xp bonus?

[hasty tartan]

Are dungeons still likely to eat your key and bug out?

[near path]

quick question guys - if a build can do Empowered+ Monos, then there's no reason it can't push into higher corruption tiers with better gear right?

[crystal steeple]

done few today and no issues, other than friend dying in loading screen somehow

[hasty tartan]

Thanks

[livid bough]

i have a bug on my beastmaster i cant summon more then 1 companion and it says i can summon up to 4(i didnt take the only one companion node) any fixes?

[analog peak]

How can I change skills on my skill bar?

[crystal steeple]

friend had similar issue on druid and respec fixed it

[livid bough]

full respec?

[crystal steeple]

click on them, if you are transformed then it might be bugged

[crystal steeple]

just the 1 skill he had issues with

[livid bough]

aite ty

[analog peak]

Ooo haha thank you

[hardy roost]

spell damage does not affect frostbite, correct?

has to be cold damage specifically?

[native sail]

Frostbite is not a spell, so yes

[hardy roost]

👍

how does freeze work on bosses?

im assuming freeze rate multi is good to have on a frostbite build, since frostbite inherently increases freeze rate as well

[vital mural]

For the Acolyte, is Blood Splatter a separate ability?

[somber chasm]

can you play this game coop from start to finish?

[fading hollow]

Have they acknowledged the crazy lag build up in arena maps?
Have they said when they think it will be fixed?
game is currently unplayable on many maps and it's very demoralizing

[hardy roost]

you can but coop is a little bit laggy right now

at least it has been for me

[solemn jackal]

can arenas be done in multiplayer?

[hardy roost]

yeah ive done them with friends

host opens and the other players click on a portal to join

[solemn jackal]

ok ty

[vital mural]

😒

[hasty tartan]

Wait, the soulfire bastion was level 45, but the boss is 90?

[hardy roost]

@native sail you seem pretty knowledgeable, dyou know how ele/cold pen and frostbite interact? Tooltips seem to suggest pen affects dots?

[native sail]

Pen affects DoTs

[hardy roost]

and im assuming generic minion damage increases the damage that minions deal with dots as well

[native sail]

Sure does

[hardy roost]

sweet

tyty

so the only stuff that doesnt is stuff that specifies spell i assume

ie. generic damage works just as well as cold damage etc

[native sail]

Yeah pretty much. Anything that doesn't specify something like "spell" or "hit" or "melee" should work with DoTs.

[hardy roost]

im assuming increased damage doesnt convert, though?

so if you have poison -> frostbite on spriggan form

getting inc poison damage shouldnt increase frostbite damage

[native sail]

Unless said DoT is appllied by a minion then it HAS to be done with minion mods

Correct yes

[hardy roost]

in which case generic minion damage works

well... it's consistent at least

im ngl the main problem im having is the rules are just similar enough to PoE rules to confuse my brain

[native sail]

Yeah, conversion in this game converts the base damage of the skill rather than totaling the damage and then converting it

[hardy roost]

yeah the conversion happens right at the beginning of the chain

[native sail]

Whereas PoE starts the conversion after all the increases

[hardy roost]

yup

like i said, just similar enough to be confusing while just different enough for the confusion to really mess things up

[native sail]

All good. Learning process and all.

[pastel pebble]

Thank God I didn't learn how PoE worked

I played and prayed by vibes alone

[sly breach]

When you guys are planning out a build, do you build out to 90-100, or aim for lower like 70-80 and the rest of the levels are gravy?

[hasty tartan]

Why is the soulfire bastion boss room level 90 on tier 1?

The rest of the dungeon was level 45, so I did not expect that

[hasty aurora]

How to resolve the bug for unlocking enpowered timeline? After finish 3 last mono, the animation wont appear

[subtle patrol]

Is there a place to recommend suggestion for the game, I just lost a very large portion of my stash and the cost to replace tabs is astronomical now? I am very upset as I have now wasted a whole week collecting things for builds.

[vital mural]

#suggestions-and-like-to-see

[crystal steeple]

how? what happened

[charred glade]

Is it worth corrupting and running lower level monoliths? Or should just focus getting to the lvl 90s and running those corrupted?

[native sail]

Normals cap at 50 corruption just go to empowered

[subtle patrol]

I had just made a new category with a bunch of sub tabs under it. After tranferring everything the game didn't register me clicking on the old category nor did it give a comfirmation prompt with the name of the tab. It deleted 7 tabs worth of uniques and my tabs are now all over 200k to replace

[real maple]

is there a way to switch regions because i live in the US and it is putting me in asia se server and that makes no sense

[crystal steeple]

oof

[hardy roost]

why the devil do scorpions get bleed to frostbite chance but not poison to frostbite

[subtle patrol]

its brutal, makes me not want to play. I was struggling with my avalanche quake build and decided to organize my stash finally and I debating switching back to my lightning shaman.

[charred glade]

Don’t believe there’s a manual server switch option. Did you join a party where host was in different region? Or running a vpn?

[orchid wave]

Its frustrating but its not that big of a setback. Just run it back

You had fun farming, have fun again

[real maple]

@charred glade nope only played with my one friend and he is from the west coast of US

[subtle patrol]

my stash tabs cost a fortune which is honestly the bigger issue for replacing

[hardy roost]

@native sail any idea if spriggan vines count as allies or minions? ie. will entangling roots stuff like venomsting work on them

[orchid wave]

Stop thinking about it like that. If you still wanna play, just jump on it again asap. its been just over a week

[hardy roost]

im assuming minion stuff works on em

since they seem to be classed as melee minions

[native sail]

If they come from companions spriggan they are allies but not minions. If you summon they are both allies and minions.

[hardy roost]

aw man that means i have to choose between frenzying thorns and venomsting

if it works

lul

[crystal steeple]

i just organized 10+ tabs and made new categories without even realizing this was a risk 😄 good to know

[hardy roost]

im trying to use the new spriggan amulet and it feels bad to have no investment into vines while being reliant on vines for rage, but... the vine nodes are kinda underwhelming if you dont need rage gen

also means ive got an extra skill specialization i dont really have a use for

[hardy roost]

could reset account maybe

not sure

id get in touch with support though

they're pretty helpful overall

[subtle patrol]

Ya and since the cost is not directly related to the number of tabs you currently but to how many you have purchased prior it's a tough recovery

[faint plinth]

are totems only a primalist thing?

[subtle patrol]

not sure how to do that, but I did write something on the suggestion thread about how easy it is to delete a lot of gear by accident.

[red inlet]

Locusts are minion damage right?

[crystal steeple]

yup

[red inlet]

And locust swarm too?

[hardy roost]

one more dumb question @native sail, you might or might not know -- the skills database seems to imply that thorn barrier from spriggan is effected by the ice thorns skill tree -- do you know if that's the case?

[crystal steeple]

if it has minion tag, its minion damage

[native sail]

I believe there is a node to do so but not inherently

[rose elk]

I have +13% to void resistance on idol, however if I take it away or wear it, value of my void res does not change. Is it a bug?

[faint plinth]

are different tags multiplicative with each other? let say I have a minion that does fire damage, are minion and fire independent multipliers?

[hardy roost]

any idea where that node is?

[carmine orbit]

Quick question. Game contines to crash, have verified files, cheked RAM and System Reqs. not sure why it continues. Also have uninstalled and reinstalled.

[native sail]

All applicable increased modifiers are additive with each other.

[hardy roost]

i dont see anything about it in either tree

[native sail]

i think it's taking effect from the Thorn Barrier nodes in Ice Thorn tree

[hardy roost]

ah so if you take thorn barrier in ice thorn tree, it overlaps?

ie. the ice thorns tree then effects the spriggan thorn barrier as well

[native sail]

I'm not 100% certain so don't quote me on it :P

[hardy roost]

hm

wonder if there's a good way to test

could always ask mike at some point i guess

[edgy oar]

Is it normal Hail of Arrows deals very little damage? I've got like huge 500% increase and more all over the place and penetration. It deals like 200-300 ticks

[hardy roost]

the sad thing is that ice thorns has no frostbite on tree

[hardy roost]

might be the bow you're using? iirc attacks are super reliant on base weapon damage

[native sail]

Not really. Hail of Arrows is just.... not great.

You're thinking with PoE brain on attacks

[hardy roost]

oh yeah deias if something doesnt specify HOW you use it, does triggering count?

[hardy roost]

probably the case yeah

[native sail]

Triggering should count unless it states "when you directly cast"

[hardy roost]

ie. can i trigger farwood heart by using bramble armor (ice thorns when hit)

and to further complicate things, if thorn barrier causes an overlap w/ ice thorns and spriggan barrier, does that mean spriggan barrier functions as ice thorns and will trigger farwood heart

[native sail]

That part probably not

[hardy roost]

rip

[edgy oar]

What you consider great on rogue archer? I've tried many different skills they all feel horrible

[native sail]

I personally don't like Marksman. The only skill I've found I like with bows is Puncture

[hardy roost]

im ngl the fact that scorpions get bleed to frostbite and not poison to frostbite is really annoying me

[hardy roost]

i think i tried poison det arrow at one point and liked it

bladedancer is much more satisfying though overall

[rose elk]

is it known that idols that give %void resistance, actually (most of them) do not do that? they either add nothing or other stats like physical damage, void damage (even though its not in the tooltip)

[native sail]

Um... no. My idols function perfectly fine.

[edgy oar]

Detonating Arrow has such a small explosion radius, it felt really bad imo

[native sail]

You can jack the radius to the MOON

[edgy oar]

I see

[vestal cloak]

Hi !
WHen I mouse over a ring, is there a way to chose which of my 2 rings I want to compare it ?

[edgy oar]

I'm poison Hail of arrows (using a poison unique bow) and TBH I feel like poison ticks are like... 10 damage? XD It's weird I've got penetration everywhere à

[hardy roost]

i need to get my hands on blast daggers or w/e they are so i can run melee det arrow

[hardy roost]

well poison benefits less from pen than other ailments because it has 30% inherent iirc

but you really need a ton of poison chance and inc dot damage

for poison to feel good

[native sail]

Poison HoA is also like, the worst poison build

[crude flame]

wtf is HoA

[native sail]

Hail of Arrows

[crude flame]

oh dear

[hardy roost]

he probably has an acidfletch

but yeah

[crude flame]

I wish there were more ignite/poison/damned builds

just more DoT builds

[hardy roost]

? there's a ton

easily as many as hit builds

though they're a bit harder to make work point wise sometimes i think

[native sail]

Even with it. HoA is just awful at stacking poison.

[hardy roost]

but yeah i feel like if you're going bow poison you probably go detonating arrow

i think it gets some stupid multiplier

i was tinkering with it earlier

oh yeah

[native sail]

It hits three times per shot (don't convert, convert ruins it), makes it good at applying stacks.

[hardy roost]

300% base poison chance

on scorpion arrow

[native sail]

Dunno what to tell you, mine are working

[hardy roost]

wait why would converting ruin it? it doesnt change the functionality

[crude flame]

naw I meant like viable more than the basic norm

[faint plinth]

Im dumb, I dont understand, I see no mission here, isnt the icon indicating there should be one?:

[native sail]

You'll get more stacks by staying as lightning and getting tendrils to shotgun.

[crude flame]

Like the only one I know thats strong is some lich hungering souls build with the perserverance cane

[hardy roost]

ah was about to ask if it was arcing blast shenanigans

how dyou get them to shotgun though? dont they only chain to secondary targets

[native sail]

Quest trackers do have a little bit of problems with some multi-step side quests

[native sail]

Nope. The initial chain hits the initial target THEN other targets

[analog peak]

Soo I've experienced an issue where my character goes from good survival to absolute glass cannon with average damage, is that normal?

[hardy roost]

wait so you just get double hits on every det arrow?

[native sail]

Yup.

One hit from arrow, one hit from explosion, one hit from tendril.

[hardy roost]

i guess you need pretty high base poison chance to make that worth doing though, since you get 300% from conversion

actually...

youd only need >100%

which you get from passives

[native sail]

And technically with the cone AoE you can get more than one tendril to hit

But that's a little RNG

[hardy roost]

the technically part sounds like it might be a wee bit impractical

[native sail]

Relies on luck and weird positioning with other enemies around

Anyway. Gotta go get ready for work.

[hardy roost]

aight pce

[vestal cloak]

You can add an affix to an item ? Or is a 2 affixes item stucked at 2 affixes ?

[hardy roost]

if it has crafting potential

[vestal cloak]

Okey thx 😄

[analog peak]

Should I just upgrade the skills I have available? I've just been upgrading the ones that are used in the final part of my build when I can spec Beastmaster, but it's confusing as shit, the build guides are just brief overview without telling me what is best to prioritise early game while getting to the point where I can actually use the necessary stuff

[hardy roost]

everybody probably does it differently, but skills level fast enough in monos that you can use whatever you like for the campaign and swap later

[analog peak]

Ah okay then

[subtle patrol]

I submitted a ticket explaining what happened and left a suggestion on how to prevent future incidents of people deleting whole categories full of tabs in the stash. Hopefully Ill recieve at least some kind of reply.

[edgy oar]

With a Explosive Arrow build how do you manage mana? Just switch to flurry for a while?

[solemn jackal]

when i use a potion on my lich, i get a hunger debuff and next potion don't heal me anymore. Anyone know what causes this?

[subtle kindle]

If you relog, you can move the stashes to a new category one tab at a time.

I had the same issue with this bug, it's annoying but the stuff isn't GONE, you just can't see it on the client side due to a bug.

[rustic fulcrum]

crit strike blessing or void res from rahyeh ? playing a druid

[edgy oar]

yo makes me think, the armor shred on Acidfletch is useless, armor doesn't defend against DoT

[scarlet bolt]

so is there any use for xp echos after i reach max lv, and got my mastery skills maxes?

[subtle kindle]

It isn't useless. It's just useless for an acid flask build.

[subtle kindle]

Not really.

[scarlet bolt]

nice :/

[edgy oar]

But it's a bow for Hail of Arrow (Damage over time) and Poison (damage over time)

[subtle kindle]

Hail of Arrows hits.

[subtle patrol]

I tried that all the tabs are gone 8 entire tabs

[subtle kindle]

Damn...

Try support for sure

[edgy oar]

It doesn't look like it hits TBH, it doesn't apply ailments

and it can't crit

[subtle patrol]

I noticed the game doesn't let you delete purchased tabs directly, but looks like you can delete them by the free category tabs to place the purchased ones in. Not sure if this is a bug or intentional

[subtle kindle]

Definitely a bug. The tabs should go to another valid category.

Right now they don't, it seems - but the data in the tabs shouldn't be deleted, especially since tab prices don't go down if you experience this bug.

[native sail]

Kit I think only the initial cast of HoA is a hit, pretty sure the rest of it is a DoT

[crystal steeple]

how rare is rune of creation?

[subtle patrol]

I submitted a ticket to support hopefully Ill hear back from them

[subtle kindle]

Okay, if that's the case, I didn't know.

[native sail]

HoA can't scale off of on hit effects without speccing into specific nodes because it is treated as a DoT itself. It's incredibly clunky and honestly could use changes.

[brisk cape]

report it on the forums

[split wren]

are there any soild writen guilds for speed leveling a alt? im really getting tired of the transform glitch as a druid and want to level something else up

[acoustic thicket]

dumb question

how do you get in a group with friends

[heavy crag]

Isnt wings of argentus on bladedancer kinda overkill? I mean you already havee like 50k EHP, more than almost any other class except sorc abusing ward relic

[native sail]

Hit H

[brisk cape]

you can use a chest for damage instead, but perma haste and 20% less damage is always nice

[acoustic thicket]

ty

[heavy crag]

isnt there other easy way for haste gain?

[brisk cape]

I think the orobyss shade boots do the same thing

theres also other sources of haste

[wheat flint]

Um the NPC i need to speak with is not here yet you can see on my minimap that it wants me to talk with one right there. (This is in Heoborea, quest Rahyeh's warpath)

what do I do? I already rebooted LE.

[brisk cape]

not sure if it works like this, but is the NPC in a different location because of another quest?

I'd try doing the quest above it maybe

[wheat flint]

dont beleive so, i was following main quest step by step

[alpine island]

Looking for advice about minion build. looks like even though all my minion skills are lvl 20 if I put on my +1 to all minion skill stuff if i add the pts they all drop to 20 again

[glad garden]

Im playing shadow daggers blade dancer but my shadow cascade is never used. Is there any obvious reason why?

[brisk cape]

when you open your map where does this show up for your quest? Rahyeh's Warpath

[brisk cape]

there's a passive in shift that causes it

[glad garden]

I believe i have it

[brisk cape]

this one?

[glad garden]

this?

[brisk cape]

the one after it

[glad garden]

ohhh thank you so much

[wheat flint]

in heoborea

[glad garden]

ive been looking for so long

[brisk cape]

really strange, wanna try joining my instance in multiplayer and seeing if you can talk to her there?

[glad garden]

If i remove a skill point when in the middle of a level do i keep the xp or does it set it to 0?

[brisk cape]

no clue, I'd guess reset it

[wheat flint]

sure

[brisk cape]

ign?

[wheat flint]

CallaWhite

[misty vector]

How does XP penalties work in Monoliths? For example if I'm level 70, doing level 85 monoliths?

[brisk cape]

if the monolith is over 11+ levels, it scales to 10 levels over xp @misty vector

[brisk cape]

so you're getting level 80 zone xp

[wheat flint]

loading very slow Mobi

[brisk cape]

no worries, that happens sometimes in multiplayer

your character loaded in so eventually it should let you

oh guess you crashed

[wheat flint]

mhm

love it

[ivory grail]

Is there a way to avoid an automatic use of the potions on low life? They knock me out of low life.

[wheat flint]

invite again please

[brisk cape]

try teleporting to the zone instead of blue swirl

might be a ping issue, what region are you in?

[wheat flint]

America

[void topaz]

I am playing coop with a friend, and hoooooly moly zoning appears super slow. Is this a bug, or is this the to be expected?

[brisk cape]

weird even if you were west it shouldnt be that bad

maybe servers are bad right now

[dry narwhal]

expected but being worked on

[wheat flint]

is this game P2P or server based?

[brisk cape]

server based

[wheat flint]

cuz P2P should be way faster... okay that explains a lot

[dry narwhal]

i havent seen most of this convo but have you verified game files on steam

[wheat flint]

uuuuuh I just reinstalled the game 3 days ago after i noticed MP was released

[void topaz]

I hope it is soon, because this is unenjoyable ;-;

[dry narwhal]

still might have to verify files

[wheat flint]

agreed

[dry narwhal]

it's a work in progress is all.

[brisk cape]

let me see if I restart my game if that helps you load in to my instance lol

[empty badger]

Can you dual wield wands?

[dry narwhal]

nope

[empty badger]

Ok

[wheat flint]

kay i verified, nothing was missing

ill try the zone tele isntead of portal this time too @brisk cape

[brisk cape]

alright I restarted my game

[misty vector]

awesome, thanks mate! wasn't sure if XP penalties still applied in monos

[wheat flint]

invite

[misty vector]

only level 69, so xp started to feel a bit slow farming lvl 85 monos

[glad garden]

if im leve 69 do i get less xp in a level 80 zone?>

[brisk cape]

you will get exp equivalent to a lv 79 zone

@wheat flint npc not here?

[wheat flint]

i posted in party chat, yeah i see it now but i gotta see if my friend can see it now

[brisk cape]

oh sorry I have chat disabled

[wheat flint]

yeah no prob, chat is busted anyway

[brisk cape]

I can invite them too if they need it.

[wheat flint]

they're still trying to verify, seems their PC is not happy

[icy snow]

Can we import online chars to last epoch tools?

[dry narwhal]

not currently

[icy snow]

ty

[wheat flint]

ah nvm @brisk cape thats not the right npc cuz you're ahead in the questline.

[brisk cape]

oh noo

[wheat flint]

looking for yulia

not greal

[brisk cape]

yeah I forgot yulia leaves

[wheat flint]

but we did verify that npcs updated in this zone so hopefully in his quest state itll update correctly

[wheat flint]

on my end

[brisk cape]

yeah, if not I suppose you could join a fresh lv1 char's instance and all the NPCs that start in that zone would be there

[final maple]

ok i napped and now i'm back. still can't get empowered monoliths if anyone knows how to fix this bug. i've completed the 3 island things, come to chest in the middle and can't click anything/nothing happens.

[brisk cape]

known bug, afaik nothing you can do

[dry narwhal]

are the 3 lights on?

[final maple]

the lights at the end of the ^ look lit up on all 3 of them

if thats the lights you're referring to

[dry narwhal]

yea

hmm

offline char?

[dry narwhal]

well usually they have light beams coming out of them

[final maple]

idk if relevant but i noticed this says monolith completion is 13/20 even tho i cleared all of them

[dry narwhal]

that thing is unreliable at best

[native sail]

Oh that thing doesn't matter. It's always wrong.

[dry narwhal]

^

[final maple]

oh haha, fair enough

[wheat flint]

i also lost the quest and now im on your questline so i guess the game isnt set to have individual progression huh

[native sail]

Some people said if you click into the 90 monos and go back to mid it can fix it

[dry narwhal]

can

deias i dropped a 1 lp ghostmaker

[native sail]

Yeah. Not will. Anyway. Work time. Bye bye.

[dry narwhal]

im scared to use it

[final maple]

tried that but no go ;-;

guess it's time to make a new character lol

[brisk cape]

oh shit lmao

[dry narwhal]

is there one you can rerun the boss quick?

[brisk cape]

yeah I guess that skipped you through almost all of heoborea

or maybe even all of it, I dont remember if I finished it

[wheat flint]

thats pretty shitty, i hope they change that cuz then idk what ive done.

mp is way too buggy. smh

[brisk cape]

yeah multiplayer is definitely ""added"" but uhh

[sterile widget]

Hey there! Sucks to hear you're getting wrong region allocation. There seem to be some bugs in the system

In the meantime, if you'd like to, you can vote at top of my forum suggestion for manual server region selection

https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/manual-server-region-selection/51931

[final maple]

i can try, wanted diff blessing anyway but was gonna do it on empowered

[brisk cape]

the functionality is a bit wonky

[dry narwhal]

yeah, worth the effort. If not new chars are neat

[wheat flint]

i still dont understand why they didnt release it with MP to begin with. thats the biggest fun factor in all ARPGs imo is playing with friends.

[final maple]

is the only way to reset a monolith to up the corruption? is there a strategy to that?

[dry narwhal]

cause they wanted to make a game first

[brisk cape]

you can also lower the corruption, some shades give -corruption

[minor vigil]

You can also lower the corruption or use a reset node to let you reclear the existing nodes

[dry narwhal]

it's why optimization got so bad for awhile, they admitted it themselves

[wheat flint]

but not a game that was competitive to other existing ones i take it.

[sterile widget]

I mean... I guess they could have delayed multiplayer another 6 months to get it perfect?

[dry narwhal]

i can promise if you @ tag me again with that garbage again youre getting blocked.

sorry you're having issues but you really dont need to be a crybaby over it.

[sterile widget]

I think Jay had it right on Dr3ad and Perrys podcast when he said this is the first time in a long time he was reminded this game is a Beta.

[brisk cape]

It's also an indie game studio

[dry narwhal]

some people can't remember that fact.

[honest radish]

anyone using the lightning barrage sorc? im struggling with my mob clear due to mana issues. I really dont wanna use focus but im not really sure what to do at this rate. i due because i dont have the mana to kill fast enough

[brisk cape]

do you have mana regen on your prefixes anywhere?

[honest radish]

currently no. even when I stacked it the results didnt seem that good

[subtle patrol]

Id assume to make sure they had the core of the game fleshed out and a clear road map to completion. plus lets face it once released to a billion++ people world wide we have a tendency to break thing

[sterile widget]

And break it we did! Go team!

[dry narwhal]

there were 40k people on for the launch weekend. Approximately 8x more players than they've ever had.

[sterile widget]

Over 10x actually. Open weekend peaked at 3.5ish I think

[vestal cloak]

(sentinel) does this apply on the warpath skill ?

[dry narwhal]

i thought the highest i heard was 5k

[subtle patrol]

Yes! Yes we did. So I got my stash tabs back.... kind of, my stash is all bugged out. I have to login and out on a toon move one tab at a time the rest vanish again (of the once I lost) then rinse and repeat

[dry narwhal]

but i didnt verify that

[dry narwhal]

yes but its kinda awful

[brisk cape]

not sure if the skill is channeled or not, im pretty sure it isn't by default, but mana regen is very good.

you do need a lot of it though

[dry narwhal]

also flat mana can help, it doesnt help regen though

[brisk cape]

yeah if you get flat mana I'd recommend getting it on a base-type instead of an affix

[dense tinsel]

What's the crazy meta lich build right now?

[sterile widget]

Tell me more about lightning barrage sorc. I am using mana strike for mana gen. I get three casts of flame reave before I am -20 but it takes me about 3 seconds to refill to full (80 mana)

[honest radish]

honestly its just my mob clear skill that sucks me dry, its dmg isnt enough sometimes. static orb

[dry narwhal]

yeah static orb is expensive

[honest radish]

i tried lightning nova and it was fine mana wise but obviously being in melee range of mobs can be rough

[dry narwhal]

the main draw of nova is the helmet where you can aim it anywhere on screen

Ashen Crown

[dry narwhal]

just check like maxroll or #💀┃acolyte i guess.

[icy snow]

how does cooldown reduction stacks? additive or diminishing ?

[native sail]

TY

[dry narwhal]

huh

[native sail]

TY I FORGOT IM OFF TONIGHT

[dry narwhal]

lmao

you played yourself

[brisk cape]

Deias..

[native sail]

I SURE FUCKIN DID

[spare tartan]

Im a little confused about Shadow Cascade. Do the on hit effects from other nodes no longer work after allocating Hurricane of Blades?

[dry narwhal]

https://tenor.com/view/no-brain-throw-trashcan-squidward-spongebob-squarepants-gif-5806300

[native sail]

Look in my defense my phone broke on Friday and I have my schedule on there. I haven't gotten the app on my backup phone yet.

[dry narwhal]

oh that blows

[native sail]

Yeaaaa

[brisk cape]

im not sure what you mean, whats not applying?

[eternal granite]

hi guys so im trying to farm adorned idol "Auto cast smite while hitting throwing skills" and i unlock "Mark of agony (increase adorend idol drop rate) at the Fall of the outcasts does this blessing bonus applicaple as well on higher level map of the monolith of faith?

[dry narwhal]

yes

[brisk cape]

yes

[native sail]

It applies everywhere!

[brisk cape]

its a global bonus

[dry narwhal]

its game wide on that character

[brisk cape]

its applied to your character

[eternal granite]

nicee but on the fall of outcasts can you equip two blessing with the same drop? and is there 2 or just only 1 slot for blessings?

[brisk cape]

1 slot for blessing in each timeline

[dry narwhal]

no, theres an empowered version of each blessing

[eternal granite]

i see so no point on keep doing the fall of the outcasts

[dry narwhal]

correct!

[eternal granite]

how do you unlock empowered version?

[dry narwhal]

empowered monos, you complete the 3 level 90s then click the chest thingy in the middle of those 3

[eternal granite]

oh i just unlock level 68 so lol

[dry narwhal]

yeah keep truckin

[spare tartan]

It's confusing to me because after you allocate 'Dagger Dance' all the following nodes refer to themselves as just affecting the thrown daggers. So does that mean all the previous nodes that only specify 'Shadow Cascade' work only with the melee area slash? Or are the daggers included? Armour shred on hit for example

[eternal granite]

i just wanna complete my SMITE IDOL lol drop rate was so slow i only have 1 for my hammerdin build

[eternal granite]

nicee!

[velvet sphinx]

Is there a way to farm temp keys? i got like fuck all

[eternal granite]

last question guys is there a way or pattern to unlock "Idol echo rewards" map?

[brisk cape]

I would assume the daggers thrown by hurricane of blades would apply on-hit effects like armor shred

but not the daggers thrown by dagger dance

[dry narwhal]

it would only stop on hit affects if it turned into a dot

[brisk cape]

unless directly specificed, like shadow flourish

[urban fog]

so for my balistae, it says its scaling tags. for minion ones, is that only for Minion does X? Cos i feel like i have never seen a minion bow damage affix on anything

[brisk cape]

any minion minion tag, bows might not roll minion tags

but accessories, relics, etc might

[urban fog]

thats what i was meanig specfically, ive never seen a "minion bow attack" thing

[dry narwhal]

minion phys damage should work

or wahtever damage your ballista is

never done that kind of build though so warning lol

[urban fog]

ye ik, ive got a bit of it, but so far, these balistae i cant really get going. im very lost and just been getting hard carried by my paladin friend

[spare tartan]

Gotcha thanks for pointing that node out. The way the devs wrote some of these skill node texts are confusing to me when they go from being very specific to generalized

[dry narwhal]

ballistas are not very popular lol.

[urban fog]

they do seem extremely awkward to build

[brisk cape]

yeah, I typically go by "unless specifically stated" which usually works. definitely times where it doesn't though.

[dry narwhal]

their tree is kinda awful

[urban fog]

and with the minimum point thing, it really sucks if you make a bad decision

cos it takes forever to bring them back up to speed

[brisk cape]

hopefully falconer gives more support to ballistae and decoy bomber

🙏

[spare tartan]

I can always test on a dummy. Just sucks to have to respec and regrind for the skill point Thanks for your help 🙂

[dry narwhal]

decoy bomber doesnt need the help lol

[brisk cape]

decoy bomber has like 0 passive support

[dry narwhal]

that build is so strong lol

[brisk cape]

what

I heard the exact opposite from someone in #🔪┃rogue

[honest radish]

i decided to switch teleport with focus using the teleport node in it. its weorking pretty well so far

[dry narwhal]

felt good to me

[brisk cape]

I made a tree too that pretty much has no passives that help it lmao

felt good up to what corruption

[spare tartan]

https://tenor.com/view/big-bird-angry-door-fall-gif-11404358

[dry narwhal]

see thats what people always ask and sorry but i dont have time to push corruption on every char i make -_-

[brisk cape]

well I could make any build feel good before empowered monos lol

[dry narwhal]

with all the debuffs you get from cinderstrike i really can't imagine it's bad.

ill make one again if i can actually get the dumb relic

got the bow already

[brisk cape]

bow?

[dry narwhal]

dragonsong

prob not required but thats what i used

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[brisk cape]

oh thats probably a good idea tbh

I didnt use it

[wheat flint]

is there a way to target players only? minions keep getting in my way...

[brisk cape]

@dry narwhal https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/aBZD7WjA here's the build I made if you were interested

[dry narwhal]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/9ozwd2xA

[brisk cape]

I think that's intended? if you're talking about support skills

[wheat flint]

yeah like the heal primalist gets

[dry narwhal]

you can move minions out the way with A, or a diff button if you add one, i have it on mouse-4

[wheat flint]

and the thorn sheild

mm in the middle of combat im not gonna move minions as that would just make the fight harder.

[brisk cape]

oh my god I didn't even know there was a throwing fire damage mod lmao @dry narwhal

[dry narwhal]

[brisk cape]

I added the stupid generic ones on my rings

[dry narwhal]

the fire one is dope

yeah this was my 2nd favorite mm build, after detonating arrow (bow version)

[brisk cape]

maybe I should try it as MM then

[dry narwhal]

haven't made an MM yet this patch actually.

[brisk cape]

cause all the passives in BD or MM pretty much don't support generic throewn or fire thrown

just bleed or bow

or melee

[dry narwhal]

ill agree rogue could use more thrown

but this build felt good

[brisk cape]

yeah maybe I'll try it with dragonsong

[dry narwhal]

i just want falconer to have new skills

idc what they are.

[brisk cape]

agreed

maybe we'll see like animal companion stuff

[near path]

Fellas, I require a suggestion from y'all - I have pushed two builds to Empowered Monos, Cold Necro and Flame Reave Spellblade. While the 2nd one is still going strong and needs some more grind and gearing to push 120+ corruption, I want to make a 3rd build. Looking for something tanky but NOT melee if possible. Any suggestions?

[brisk cape]

cause that's what a falconer is

[brisk cape]

iirc fireball sorc is very tanky and not melee

[spare tartan]

Shield throw Palladin was fun for me

[near path]

Can you link me this please?

[spare tartan]

I dont use builds I just wing it usually lol

but im sure they are out there

[near path]

Ohh.. what corruption were you able to push it to?

[limpid void]

Hammer Throw / Smite Paladin ticks all those boxes.

[subtle kindle]

any non-melee paladin build will be giga tanky

totem spriggan is pretty good

[dry narwhal]

any paladin gonna be decently tanky lol

holy aura go brrrr

[spare tartan]

Is Druid Totem build tanky?

[subtle kindle]

well yeah, but if you dont wanna melee then you can scratch a few builds out

the spriggan version is pretty tanky by virtue of getting hideskin and impervious

[dry narwhal]

druid by default has good EHP

[subtle kindle]

shaman less tanky but arguably more damage

[dry narwhal]

can only play storm totem as shaman :c

[final maple]

forgot who said it, but clearing a mono boss again fixed the empower bug tyty

[dry narwhal]

you're welcome

[brisk cape]

wait wait @dry narwhal is throwing fire damage a legacy mod?

surely they wouldn't remove it..

[dry narwhal]

is it?

[brisk cape]

I don't see it

[native sail]

It is legacy yes

Changed this update

[dry narwhal]

ah fuck

[brisk cape]

https://tenor.com/view/whyyy-nooooooo-emojis-gif-23824232

[dry narwhal]

well that makes that slightly worse

[brisk cape]

agony.

[native sail]

Tbf it was like 40+ flat damage from rings alone

[brisk cape]

yes

give it back

[dry narwhal]

[native sail]

It's an impossible mod to balance imo

[near path]

I was under the impression it's hard to get those Smite proc idols

[dry narwhal]

but it made you take more damage

[native sail]

It's either too low to do anything or it's way too strong for it's opportunity cost

[dry narwhal]

[limpid void]

I have 3 and i'm not into end game yet. They help, but I was doing fine before I had any.

[bright sky]

anyone getting lag in groups?

[native sail]

Doesn't matter when you delete things off the screen

[dry narwhal]

that's what the emote was for

[woven nimbus]

real bad, couldn't pick anything up

[near path]

I was initially gonna go for a Shield Throw FG ignite stacker but I have no freaking idea if it'll even scale and I don't want to burn myself out on it

[bright sky]

not just us then 😦

[dry narwhal]

i'm at 9 lol

[woven nimbus]

yeah we called it a night, kinda frustrating. Is what it is

[bright sky]

basically the first time we've had this problem, so that's a positive

[native sail]

I have 3 smite idols, all high rolled with armor shred on throw attack

[woven nimbus]

same actually despite everything i've seen from everyone else

[limpid void]

jelly :/

[near path]

Is this the Hammer Spiral Smitadin or the Hammer Nova one

[dry narwhal]

my first two rolled the eexact same with that

[near path]

I know there's two variants

[dry narwhal]

isnt orbit jsut better for smite?

[near path]

Also what about Holy Trail Javelin? Is that also tanky and capable of pushing high corruption?

[native sail]

Orbit is lazier but nova is higher DPS with investment iirc

[ripe tiger]

which builds best utilise low life?

[limpid void]

Can choose both, and get spiral with more dmg

[dry narwhal]

then i ll gladly take the lazy

low life is just not worth it imo. Hasn't been for awhile.

escescially with the damage bypassing ward bug

[hollow frigate]

Is doing arena better for leveling than doing monliths or empowered monoliths?

[native sail]

Arena

[dry narwhal]

exp in arena got nerfed a long time ago

id just push emp, you get plenty of exp

[hollow frigate]

Thanks @native sail

[native sail]

I'm ing because it's not a good choice for any reason

[dry narwhal]

arena garbo, mono good

[stone granite]

Arena got nerfed to meaningless, along with gambling.

[limpid void]

wuts diff b/t arena and arena of memory?

[dry narwhal]

read the arena of memory key

[hollow frigate]

what is the point of doing arena if it doesn't give good exp?

[stone granite]

There is no point

[dry narwhal]

there's uniques there

[stone granite]

There never was a point really

[dry narwhal]

or leaderboards (if they existed)

[stone granite]

Any time spent on arena is time not spent on monoliths, and monoliths have always given better rewards

[velvet sphinx]

what timeline do u guys farm when u arent looking for anything specific

but want to try ur luck for rare uniques

[dry narwhal]

the shield one

[velvet sphinx]

is bastion pretty mcuh the only one worth goin for?

[dry narwhal]

yep

[velvet sphinx]

ill get this last blessings then do that i guess

try my luck lol

[dry narwhal]

or gloves for like ravenous, salt the wound

[subtle kindle]

i generally farm whatever timeline i want an LP boss unique for if im not farming anything necessarily

right now thats black sun which is also the shield timeline

i would always do shield, amulet or glove tbh

those 3 slots have the best stuff

[dry narwhal]

amulet is a good one too

[subtle kindle]

a 3/4LP bleeding heart is basically BIS for almost any build

[velvet sphinx]

yea im trying to find cool uniques that culd make anotherb uild realy good

and the ni lvl that build

[subtle kindle]

and devotion/tears/other amulet slots also go crazy

[velvet sphinx]

im tossing up the lightning bug, bladedance shadow dagger, the melee knife bladedancer

dno what to do haha

[subtle kindle]

if you wanna farm for a unique dagger then do the dagger timeline

[dry narwhal]

lightning bug is fun but druid bugs kilin it for me

[subtle kindle]

i just havent done dungeons yet

the skill bug is so bad

not to mention all dungeons are bugged as fuck

[velvet sphinx]

i got the melee daggers already, wateverthey called jethkors or watever

[wooden condor]

If I have bleed to poison convert passive for umbral blades, and a bleed chance implicit on my dagger... is that converted to poison for umbral blades?

[night bobcat]

hey guys is there any build that can use a 3LP decayed skull?

[low totem]

is mana strike not considered a lightning melee attack even though it has the tags 'melee' and 'lightning'? This node seems to not affect the shown dps, I can't really tell if it's actually affecting it or not.

[dry narwhal]

it is a melee lightning skill

[hollow frigate]

any guide on how to craft on legendary items?

[dry narwhal]

like in what way

[low totem]

okay I put points into this instead and it is working... very strange

[lavish wind]

pretty sure you can even double dip on infused weapon if you convert too

[hollow frigate]

Like i have a unique i want to craft on that has legendary potential but i have no idea how to do it @dry narwhal

[dry narwhal]

press G and look at legendary

[hollow frigate]

TY

[low totem]

yeah, but this wasn't affecting it apparently. That's why I was asking if it was the node or the skill.

[dry narwhal]

it's buggy ass game lol

[low totem]

yeah not seeing a difference in damage lol I think the node is not working

[dry narwhal]

!bug

[ripe brook]

To make sure a bug gets fixed, please post about it here: https://forum.lastepoch.com/c/bug-reports.

[low totem]

looks like there's a post on it already 👍

[hoary ridge]

Does anyone have a strong spriggan build the could get me a loot filter for and a rough idea on the skill trees?

[normal pike]

what's the game's criteria for picking a server? Because I have a server on my region where I get 18ms but the game keeps putting me on US Central where I have 170ms

[young orbit]

I have the "frenzy on fury leap" and "maul benefits from fury leap tree", but I don't get frenzy when I use maul. Is that a bug or does that just not work like I expect?

[dry narwhal]

if you think something's abug, report it!

!bug

[ripe brook]

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

[young orbit]

Thanks, ended up searching there and its already reported

[hollow frigate]

i just crafted on a unique item to make a legendary and it just disappeared? is that a possibility?

or a glitch

[velvet sphinx]

worth lvling a pally to use judgement gloves that are 1lp?

i mean 0lp*

[dry narwhal]

why not

[velvet sphinx]

can always swap to hammers i guess

or vice versa

[lavish wind]

im about to level up a suicide totem build

[scarlet lake]

yo guys so lastepochtools says that Chronostasis drops
Timeline to target farm: Reign of Dragons ("Unique or Set Sword or Dagger" echo rewards)
But for me there are only "Unique or Set Axe Mace or Spear" in Reign of Dragons
I am unlucky or it's not Reign of Dragons?

[dry narwhal]

unlucky

ar you in empowered?

[scarlet lake]

yes

[dry narwhal]

they'll happen eventually

[scarlet lake]

I have 7 gaze of orobyss, that means I cleared this timeline a bit and there was no Unique or Set Sword or Dagger

[coarse cradle]

what dictates blessing quality? rng?

[dry narwhal]

up your corruption probably

[dry narwhal]

yes

[coarse cradle]

ah

[rancid verge]

What should I do if I’m getting ready to level a new character? I’m not super far in. The character im playing is level 56

If continuing to play my current character a bit is gonna let me get stuff to rapidly accelerate the growth of my next character I’m fine with that, but if it’s not I think I’d rather just switch. I don’t love the minion playstyle

And as a necro I’m pretty much locked into that

[sterile widget]

Hi @normal pike - server region is automatically selected by the game based on lowest ping at the time of that decision. We don't have full details on the implementation, but we know it isn't working completely in line with user expectations. The devs are aware and looking into it.

If you'd like to, you can add a vote at the top of this forum post to show support for manual server region selection:

https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/manual-server-region-selection/51931

[normal pike]

Will do, thanks.

[static yoke]

Guys , Temporal Sanctum is bugged for me..i cleared it 3 times and i end up to the last door before the boss , but that door wont open.Anything i can do about it ?

[velvet sphinx]

Did u try changing timelines

[static yoke]

ye tried relog and rerun , 3 times same end

[pine dove]

hey all, i just completed the 3rd lvl 90 timeline on my first character. should i be able to unlock empowered timelines now?

[static yoke]

timelines everything O.o

[mighty mango]

any reason to go hardcore?

[pine dove]

do i need to do the completion thing first? what's that

[scarlet lake]

you will get "quest" there after unlocking

you should come here in order to unlock empowered

[pine dove]

i read that and went there, but i dont have a quest

so nothing happened

[scarlet lake]

so you don't have option now?

[pine dove]

no

oh wait

i tped out and back in

now my quest updated

[scarlet lake]

ah yeah classic "did you try to restart your device"

[pine dove]

XD thanks envy!

[static yoke]

Is there any way i can download LE without steam ?

[dry narwhal]

no, steam is required

[static yoke]

thanks

[uncut acorn]

Does the skill's listed DPS factor in Cooldown at all?

[mighty mango]

when do i get to choose my subclass?

[sick yacht]

Chapter 4

[young orbit]

Any tips for choosing between dual wield/sword and shield/2H for werebear maelstrom?

[sick yacht]

2h til you get bastion then wand/scepter and shield

[young orbit]

What is bastion, a unique?

[sick yacht]

Unique shield that gives 100% block chance

Bastion of honor

[young orbit]

ah ok, thanks, i'll keep an eye out

[coarse cradle]

anyone mind explaining the t1-4 dungeons? unlocking etc

[sick yacht]

Do t1 to unlock t2 do t2 to unlock t3 do t3 to unlock t4

[crystal steeple]

cant open this 😦

[coarse cradle]

ah simple. lol ive stacked a ton of keys and have yet to do any dungeons lol

[dry narwhal]

don't do dungeons, they're bugged.

[crystal steeple]

like 80% of the echo rewards arent opening at all tonight

[dry narwhal]

try to click on different areas of it, then relog

[crystal steeple]

relogging is pointless since you wont spawn back there

[dry narwhal]

i mean click on the rock

on different areas of it

THEN relog

[crystal steeple]

why relog if i cant get to the reward anyway after relog

[dry narwhal]

can you read?

[crystal steeple]

im asking why

youre not explaining anything 😄

dont bother

[dry narwhal]

@crystal steeple

can you see it?

[crystal steeple]

ofcourse i can see it, but im curious why

why do i need to relog, what does that do for me?

[native sail]

The hitboxes of it get messed up so clicking around on different bits can hit it.

[dry narwhal]

because its several stacked on each other so if you want it to keep happening then dont relog

[sick yacht]

You click different areas of the rock to get your reward. After you get your reward relog to get rid of the bug

[crystal steeple]

there wasnt so hard 🙂 thanks

[crystal steeple]

imagine being rude because someone asked a question

[dry narwhal]

go back to kindergarten and read a book

[crystal steeple]

wow, sink lower keep going

[stone granite]

Bro you were the one being rude when they tried to help

[crystal steeple]

how was i rude? i simply asked why

[stone granite]

Just stop, go play the game

[crystal steeple]

i wanted to understand whats the point of relogging and instead of a reply i get "can you read"

😄

you guys are strange

[sick yacht]

Tone is difficult to determine from text. Feel free to ask more questions if you have them

[austere chasm]

Hello, anyone willing to help me power level? ie. we party up and you smash through monos while I try to stay a live.

[long summit]

im doing perma abomination with 100% crit and it doesnt seem like it leeches much, am i just bad at the game? lol

[sick yacht]

Do you have a ribbons of blood or some form of minion leech?

[honest shadow]

Is there a skill that does a Diablo 2 style Thunderstorm?

[long summit]

yeah river of bones

[sick yacht]

Not exactly, but tornado specced into lightning might be close

[honest shadow]

ok ill check it out 🙂 i always loved that style

[sick yacht]

Grab a ribbons of blood and see if it's enough for you

[analog peak]

Can we respec our passives on subclasses like Beastmaster etc?

[barren pagoda]

Does unlocking empowered monos share across characters

Or am I gonna have to do this shit every time

[long summit]

oof welp guess i gotta grind 😂

[sick yacht]

Yeah, the brain icon npc in town

[analog peak]

Awesome ty!

[sick yacht]

No, unlock every character separately

[barren pagoda]

It's only in the first town the council chambers, and end of time I think BTW, not all towns

[barren pagoda]

[sick yacht]

It's like a 50% drop from the abomination (first mono boss)

[long summit]

yeah i saw but i already did it twice and got unlucky

[barren pagoda]

Shits annoying because it's basically running 1 shotting everything til u unlock empowered and go up with corruption, so the main limiting factor is basically movement speed imo

[sick yacht]

[stone granite]

Depends on how soon you start monoliths

Technically you have access in chapter 4

[barren pagoda]

I've been doing the earliest possible skill point and idol slots quests

So like level 42-45 or so

I don't finish campaign anymoee

[pastel pebble]

You can get a head start at lrvel 30~

Maybe lower jf ya want

[stone granite]

But you wouldn't be able to handle empowered at lvl 50

Nor have access to any gear that dropped

It's a journey

The whole point is to continually improve your character, which you are doing in unempowered too

No need to rush

[native sail]

Man. Lightning bug just gave me legitimately the smoothest 75 Lagon I've ever had.

[sick yacht]

Lightning bug is life rn. Was my first 100 for mp

[native sail]

I don't even have a planner for it, I'm just winging it off the basic idea I know of

[sick yacht]

Yeah, it's pretty nice

[minor kindle]

Just realized a question that might be a bit silly. Does the "hit damage taken" from shred armor add up to the "melee damage taken" from doom?

[warped blaze]

does the dot from entangling roots stack?

[sick yacht]

Are you asking if they add together or if shred can reach the same number? I guess either way is yes, but I was confused

[sick yacht]

The damage doesn't stack, but you can refresh it

[analog peak]

Is this good? It literally seems like they've gone for more defensive passives which I'm confused do you want to stack more defensively on passives soo you can go offensive on gear? https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/GBOPPbWo

[sick yacht]

You get most of your offensive power from the skill trees actually. Go defensive almost everywhere else

[native sail]

You get most of your damage purely from the skills trees. You tend to go very defensive everywhere else or you will get fucked up in late game.

[analog peak]

Wait soo offensive on skill trees, then defensive on gear and passives?

[sick yacht]

Yeah and idols

[native sail]

Or go full SC Andy mode like me and do bare minimum defense with extreme offense

[minor kindle]

No, I mean something like this. The "60% taken" caused by sentinel's Volatile Reversal will add up to the "16% taken" of doom, ultimately causing the enemy to take 76% more damage.

[analog peak]

I mean I am SC not HC haha

I've been too used to ARPG's like PoE where I can just go glass cannon and clear content, can I technically do the same here? haha

I'm nowhere near endgame I don't feel soo I have no idea what to do haha

[native sail]

technically, yes. But it's not the greatest plan it struggles in endgame as a glass cannon.

[sick yacht]

Right, that's adding together like I said in the first part of the message you replied to. Again, yes.

[analog peak]

Ah that's unfortunate haha

[scarlet lake]

the main thing about why glass cannon are bad it's bc this game just will remove your damage xd

so you always should pick defensive stats

[native sail]

Well.... yes and no. Your DPS does increase, there's literally builds that can kill T4 bosses in just a few clicks. Hell, Dread's 6 shotting T4 Julra with Judgement.

[scarlet lake]

Yeah this still works if you hit oneshot point

[native sail]

You can ask Mike when #👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs opens again

[scarlet lake]

But with something that deals a huge amount of damage but not in one time - like glass cannon dot builds

that's not working

[native sail]

I double clicked enter

[sick yacht]

Boss dynamic Dr acts the same as endurance, so even if it's 1 giant hit, the Dr applies

[native sail]

DPS does in fact mean you kill faster and if you think otherwise you are just objectively wrong

[sick yacht]

The dynamic dr is literally to prevent 1shotting bosses

Not disagreeing with you Deias, was replying to other person

[native sail]

Yeah I figured

[scarlet lake]

I'm not trying to convince anyone how a system works about which I know practically nothing
I just saw a few examples of how the removing dps items caused the boss to die faster and so I formed the opinion that glass cannons are bad

[analog peak]

I mean there's probably content the game offers that running glass cannon will struggle with, but that's the same in every arpg right?

I guess I'll have to see what I can even do whenever I'm done with the story

[native sail]

Crioth, opinion on the idea of bleed MA/Forged Weapons

[sick yacht]

Doooo eeet lol I'd try to get attack speed instead of the Inc melee damage tho

[native sail]

I have the same base with T6 attack speed

[sick yacht]

That's probably better

Throw on some wing guards and you're off to the races

[analog peak]

I see some of these weapons and gear items with massive stat and it's like... how 🥲

[sick yacht]

Monos, it's after story like you said

[analog peak]

Monos? 😮

[sick yacht]

Yeah, that's fat. Reroll a suffix to bleed and slap on some dot damage

[native sail]

Endgame loop. Like D3 rifts mixed with PoE maps with a sprinkling of Synthesis (if you played PoE and that league)

[small silo]

does +necrotic spell damage ONLY apply to spells that have the necrotic tag?

[sick yacht]

Yeah

[native sail]

No, no, if it's flat it applies to all spells

[sick yacht]

Oh yeah she's right ^

[small silo]

Like flat

yeah

[native sail]

She* :P

[sick yacht]

She😅

[wheat moth]

yo what exactly does it want me to do im confused

[scarlet lake]

place to triplicate arena keys

there are no way you can spent it all at this point

[sick yacht]

It wants you to run the mono again but choose the other option

[wheat moth]

i get that but whats the other option

[sick yacht]

Can't tell from screen if you chose 66 or 62 but pick the other one

[analog peak]

Dang okay, well at least I've got some repeatable dungeon content to look forward to yewwww

[sick yacht]

Idk, can you go to fallen Lance or black sun?

[sick yacht]

^

[wheat moth]

my map looks like this

[sick yacht]

Then do the mono again and pick the 62 option

[wheat moth]

fall of the outcasts?

[scarlet lake]

yes

[analog peak]

Whoah wtf is thaaaaat

[wheat moth]

do i only have to do up to the 2nd landmark

er questmark

[analog peak]

Does Monolith just have a few different maps you can actually run?

[scarlet lake]

that's timelines

[analog peak]

Oh

[native sail]

Nope. Each timeline has a selection of maps specific to it and enemy pools that differ.

[scarlet lake]

by maps you meant this prob

[sick yacht]

No, the option is literally after you kill the abomination boss

You can also just wait and unlock it in empowered (which is what I would suggest)

[wheat moth]

yeah i want to do that its way too low level for me

how do i start empowered ones

[native sail]

Beat the level 90s and return to the island that connects them

[sick yacht]

Finish the 3 lvl 90monos then click on the blue crystal in the middle of them

[scarlet lake]

yeah ^

[sick yacht]

Paint master envyvox

[wheat moth]

pog ty

[scarlet lake]

lightshot actually

[sick yacht]

Lol fair enough, gz murder

[scarlet lake]

idk I'm just tilted a bit cuz I can't find Unique or Set Sword or Dagger in Reign of Dragons

[sick yacht]

What's your corruption?

[scarlet lake]

139

[sick yacht]

Gotta pump those numbers up, corruption affects node rarity

[scarlet lake]

I found Axe Mace Spear like 30 times

But not Sword or Dagger one

like

[analog peak]

I'm just gonna search a Last Epoch for dummy's when I hit endgame bc yeah I have no idea what I'm doing I'm just running through and killing shit haha

[sick yacht]

Lol many YouTube videos on it

[scarlet lake]

that's how arpg works usually xd

[sick yacht]

Rng gonna rng. Took me 23 clears of black sun to finally get my ele damage leech blessing

[analog peak]

It's way more confusing than PoE just by the look of it all haha

[sick yacht]

Not at all

[thick frigate]

Hey there.
I was just wanting to know if anyone was free in a bit to run me thourgh classes, subclasses and builds.
|'m about to buy the game here in a day or so, but would enjoy the communive experience from hearing input and thoughts from active players.

[sick yacht]

I can answer specific questions, but overviews I would recommend YouTube videos from dr3adful and perrythepig

[native sail]

What do you want to know? Ask away and we can try our best to answer.

[sly brook]

anyone here who has the rogue bee idol?

[native sail]

Does Rogue have a bee idol? I know Primalist does.

Oh it does

Interesting.

[sly brook]

yea. not sure if it really does exist in the game

you can add it on the planner and the affix can also be found on the in game filter

[native sail]

Says it's a "very rare" so yeah it's gonna be hard to find

[scenic matrix]

Anyone has a bug in julra dungeon when you press D it ports you and then it ports back?

[sick yacht]

Unfortunately yes, sometimes the dungeons bug out and prevent progress. It's high on the priority list

[scenic matrix]

Ah ive lost a lot of keys trying to do it

Hopefully the patch is today

[sick yacht]

Agreed

[acoustic thicket]

What are the rarest uniques in the game ? If theres a list of them sorted by rarity I would love to have

[native sail]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/items/unique
Filter by reroll chance

[acoustic thicket]

ohhh ty!

I got a vilatria's storm crown its the rarest set item it seems :d

[serene marsh]

If a skill has base damage of multiple types (e.g. Smelter's Blow), is generic added damage split evenly between the types?

[analog peak]

Soo how does one get like, BiS item crafts like these? I have zero idea how the crafting system works haha

Like I've gotten this one, but it's synergy with minions isn't there I feel haha

[sick yacht]

Added damage is always of a type. So if the base skill does fire and phys and you add +5 phys it literally just adds 5 to the phys part. I'm wrong. They added flat melee this patch. It should be split evenly

[sick yacht]

I'd recommend watching a YouTube video on crafting

[analog peak]

Is it pretty hard to kinda understand?

[dry narwhal]

no, but easier for a video to say it then us trying to explain it

[analog peak]

What're these? 👀 is that something I save for endgame?

[inner fossil]

Apparently for alts

[acoustic thicket]

Is this what indicates how hard it is to get legendary on an item

[dry narwhal]

yes

[swift cairn]

I don't get it, got 40% armor, 1.9k hp capped void res yet that dot pool from t4 julra still 2 shots me, cant' get out in time 🤔

[native sail]

Those are dungeon keys!
And they're not exclusively for alts, don't listen to Rez on that. Dungeons have exclusive rewards and mechanics to them and the highest tier of them is legitimately difficult.

[tiny owl]

How do I must efficiently level from 70+ onwards? It seems very very slow to me the equivalent being already level 90 in Path Of Exile. I am currently spamming the max level monoliths that I have unlocked that are matching my level.

[native sail]

Armor doesn't work on it, it's a DoT.

[swift cairn]

ah yeh forgot about that part xD

[analog peak]

Alrighty I'll save my keys then if I get em haha

[sick yacht]

Do monos that are higher than your level

[swift cairn]

guess just need more hp

[native sail]

T4 Julra is like deadass almost "don't get hit" territory.

[swift cairn]

I don't have any problems with the other abilities, I just don't have enough time to get out of the void pool dot ticks

[acoustic thicket]

is there like math for it to calculate chances >.>

[native sail]

That we know? Nope.

[dry narwhal]

that number is already datamined, so ^

[acoustic thicket]

Can you send it >.>

I played a million years ago don't remember the rarity of stuff anymore

[dry narwhal]

you already have all we know from that picture ^^

[native sail]

The number you looked at already is the limit of what we have on it. It's literally datamined information, LETools gets all their info from the game

[acoustic thicket]

so nothing concrete then only by feel

siphon of anguish (that ring we all collect) is LP40 and its pretty common to have LP on it, I imagine a something 70LP reign of winter is much harder then to get LP/multiple

[sick yacht]

Yeah

[acoustic thicket]

Can you even get LP on those that are more than 100 ?

[dense cypress]

If I use a rune of ascension on a giftable item is the unique then giftable as well?

[tidal zenith]

assuming the final boss of a 100 monolith is higher than 100, yes

[sick yacht]

Technically it's possible to get 4lp on everything. Does that mean you would ever see it playing this game for the rest of your life? No

[sick yacht]

Now, yes. But devs have said it's a bug and you shouldn't be able to

[native sail]

You can, it's just a scalar not a requirement.

[tight wave]

do i understand correctly that vendor not refreshing his offer offer echo run - is a bug?

[sick yacht]

Yeah

[tight wave]

did devs ever give any eta on that? because it is like that since i remember

at elast 2 years i guess

[native sail]

It was fine last patch

[sick yacht]

^

Also, no to the ETA

[tight wave]

i did not play last patch, building mine hype for MP 😄

so it was fixed and now broken again?

[sick yacht]

Mp broke a lot

[native sail]

Shit happens when you have to rewrite huge amounts of the game

[tight wave]

honestly, teleport safari to buy enough shatterings with teleporting around is one of most annoying things i ever experienced in any game 😄

[dry narwhal]

i shatter all the time and have over a hundred shatters consistently and i don't do that

[sterile widget]

I have almost 0 shatter on the reg hecause I shatter things even Boru wouldn't dare

#shatterlife

Almost went with #shatlife but thought again

[acoustic thicket]

stop shattering so much, calm down :d

[native sail]

Oh god, doing things even BORU wouldn't?? What the fuck are you doing?

[stone granite]

Can't imagine needing to shatter that much

[sterile widget]

When you're constantly trying to live up to the standards of a greased up madman philosopher, you do anything you have to do to get by

[ornate sage]

Is the Druid charge in bear form buggy? Sometimes I fail to charge, latency is 3ms if that’s believable

[signal topaz]

How does currency work in this game? Is it just straight up buy things from shops for gold, or is their some funky item based currency like POE?

[sick yacht]

Gold

[stone granite]

The only difference is PoE doesn't have gold

LE also has item based crafting

[signal topaz]

good. hated the orb currency thing from poe. thanks

[sick yacht]

Sure, but you can only trade with gold in LE. can't trade crafting mats

[stone granite]

Untrue

[outer mango]

True

[stone granite]

There is no trade at all in LE, you can't say what is tradeable or not.

[sick yacht]

Through the bazaar, you can only use gold. You can gift shards by crafting on a gift able item, but per the dev post it's gold only.

[stone granite]

And it would be pointless to trade for gold

[stone granite]

There is nobazaar

They completely killed the bazaar idea

[outer mango]

Lol

[sick yacht]

Read the dev post. You're wrong.

[outer mango]

Update yourself

[stone granite]

Trade has changed over and over, until it's actually in the game there is no statements of facts

[sick yacht]

Ok

[native sail]

DELUSIONAL

[stone granite]

That's how its been for years

Forums have raged over how it should be
