[native sail]

None.

[lament stirrup]

not even Int?

[native sail]

Int is ward retention

[lament stirrup]

hmm interesting

[ocean shuttle]

ah rip, was hoping shards would auto pickup somehow since they're kinda annoying to click on controller

[vivid cloud]

What class would use this? Is it for void knight?

[elder coral]

me lol wow

[wooden spade]

Is there controller support ?

[pastel ibex]

Are there any Multishot+Puncture freeze builds?

Sitting on this

[wooden spade]

You can go to le tools and search for builds including puncture, then try also 1 item

[native sail]

Dunno on the Multishot part. But iirc Frostbite Puncture ain't bad.

[pastel ibex]

Would you have a video/link?

[dry narwhal]

@/torgor lol

[merry aspen]

OR, and here is a wild idea, you could try, and bear with me here, to make your own build. You know? Play the game, have fun?

[dry narwhal]

[acoustic thicket]

is beastmaster good?

[dry narwhal]

It has some strong builds but has a lot of buff upkeep

Which annoys some people

[elder coral]

@acoustic thicket I like it level 70 bear for tank and scorpion + totems pretty nasty

[ocean shuttle]

yeah theres controller support

it's somewhat rough at the moment but playable

you have auto lock on for some skills and not for others

and they're not always the skills you want auto lock on

and you're likely to aim at a barrel in a fight

[wooden spade]

Thx

[vivid cloud]

does corruption reset if I kill the monoliths boss?

[austere gulch]

no

[icy snow]

do void knight smite's fissures deal void damage or fire damage?

[amber void]

res shred affect the cap res or your total res?

[mighty jackal]

How can I know if a skill is damage over time? Ice Barrage for example is considered DoT?

[austere gulch]

check the scaling tags

for the skill

[gentle drum]

anyone else gotten vfx bug with tempest strike? any time i use it i see pink block pixels fly around

[austere gulch]

yes its bugged

for everyone

[gentle drum]

ah thanks

[quasi needle]

does Transplant turn into a crash on command button for anyone else?

[grave willow]

What level should I use my arena and dungeon keys? I'm level 80 and have not used any.

[elder coral]

any level you want to be, just have fun!

level 80 is pretty high

[gentle drum]

get some good lvling in the arenas

[woeful dune]

does a vessel of memory also reset the nodes that reveal a large area of nodes?

i have 4 reveal nodes ready to go but saving them to clear enemy buffs when needed to fight the boss as i have a big corruption stack going so im wondering if i use them will the reset when i pop the vessel of memory or do i lose them?

[woeful dune]

use them when they have buffs that apply to stuff you need i guess the soulfire one is really good for exalted items i think its the best out of the 3 personally

[mighty jackal]

What is the consequences if I die in the game?

There is any difference between using the forge NPC or the forge pressing F?

[vernal seal]

In monoliths if you die you don't get the bonus reward listed on the echo. And no, no difference.

[misty scroll]

Can someone help me with crafting system in Last Epoch? I am very familiar with Path of Exile crafting system, and I am curious how does it work here, is it worth collecting good base items (white), can I even make them blue/rare? If I remove affixes from a rare, will it become white? Is it worth making a rare item from scratch, or modify rares?

[shrewd citrus]

hey, i am new i like to ask if some german are around here. Love to play with others and if its okay sadly my english is bad but it would be nice if can go to some voice channel and just be ther hahah a

[fickle rain]

Does dying in arena on HC kill your char?

[quasi needle]

idk what you're talking about, I mean when i use Transplant it makes my game crash sometimes

[crimson ruin]

staves seem to enhance spells while other weapons melee damage. so how exactly does that work if i switch between casting a spell and melee attacking?

[crude jewel]

is there a list/link of all the abilitys/buffs that dont work at the moment or dont work as intended? i would guess it is not much?

i read recently someone mention that something with freeze not works properly?

[dense lynx]

What’s a must have for my necro build? Just hit level 70

[crude jewel]

as far as i know theres no "must" it all depends on the build you play/what spells you prefer

[dense lynx]

Okay!

[crude jewel]

but i could be wrong though, i mostly never play meta builds i play what i am in the mood or wanna test even if its known that its not "that good"

[dense lynx]

How’s lich play out? Kinda wanna run it on my 2nd character

[crude jewel]

never played so far, i also didnt play much ^^ maybe ask your question in an hour again ^^

[dense lynx]

Okay haha I appreciate the help!

[crude jewel]

i saw there are a bunch of YT builds for every class so yea look maybe into and if you see something you like, test it :D

@dense lynx and if you dont know https://www.lastepochtools.com theres a bunch of infos you can use there are guides too

[dense lynx]

Ohhhh I didn’t know that! Thank you that will be a huge help!

[stone granite]

It's not worth keeping whites or blues usually because you have limited forging potential and whites have the least, so you'll never make a good item with a white and rarely with a blue

[stone granite]

If you remove affixes you are also using forging potential, so it's hard to do it that way too

Best to make a good filter to get an item with at least 2 affixes you want first

[vague badge]

Does anyone know why my maul sometimes just doesnt spawn vines? I have the 2 nodes in fury leap at 4/4 for 100% chance to spawn 6 vines and I have the node in werebear to use my fury leap, but sometimes it just doesnt spawn them.

[stone granite]

Possible you were stunned? Sometimes you still have skill animation but you are interrupted and nothing actually happens.

[vague badge]

i dont believe so, unless the stun was for a millisecond, in the video I posted I pretty much never stop moving

[faint cape]

Do you have great vines? Won't work too well with that

[vague badge]

I do not have that

[faint cape]

it's possible that particular map spot is bugged, looks like your vines get killed immediately or something

[vague badge]

its happened a lot

[faint cape]

I played vinebear for a long time since 0.9 and never had it happen

[vague badge]

like 1-2 times every 20-30 casts

[faint cape]

do you have enough rage to cast leap slam? could probably cause it

in that video you have almost no rage

[vague badge]

hmmm that makes sense, I assumed I wouldnt be able to cast maul if I didnt have enough rage

[gleaming cape]

any known workaround for items being unseeable on the ground

rip nvm

[arctic root]

Hey guys, looking for opinions/feedbacks/way to proceed

i started a first character that I didn't like this much and did then a new one that allowed me to reach empowered (100-110) and now getting a bit destroyed, my build is kinda locked behind some necessary items or i just don't play safe enough (it is a cast on crit light meteor)

I kinda plan to go on an "easier" build to progress a bit higher and maybe loot some exalted to provide to the characters i abandoned

now, loot filters, I had a "hybrid" loot filter I had to highlight specific items for each of my 2 characters, but that's 39 rules just for 2 chars

do you guys go for more "global" filters

like a highlight of all T4+ hp/resis etc, what's your way to go?

(sorry long message)

[stone granite]

https://youtu.be/v1a2LRVIdgI My filters are pretty small, maybe 7 rules

[arctic root]

I'll have a look 🙂 I plan to go paladin so very different stats to look for (had acolyte summoner and the mage) so I think I need to really rethink on my way to filter

[faint cape]

press Alt+Z or Z to turn off the hide feature

[arctic root]

Ok so after viewing you are in the opinion that only exalted are worth showing for an eventual other build

so by doing that by exemple I'm not displaying any rare item that would have minion crit+ minio health for example for my necro,
but i guess at a certain empowered level the exalted loot is so common that you just count on them to build characters

[zinc anchor]

I still use rares. At one point I was at the point where I had all exalteds and uniques, but then I had to change my build a little bit and went back to some rares, still haven't found any exalteds to replace them all yet. I think I'm still using 3 or 4 rares. And I'm running at around 130 corruption, level 97.

[arctic root]

Oki i see, in fact my trouble is how i should manage my filter if i want to still have a chance to get loots for other character when I'm not currently playing them

[zinc anchor]

You're right that rares probably aren't good for that, may as well stick to exalteds and uniques only.

[arctic root]

Oki, so I guess maybe doing a global filter and maybe 4-5 specific rules like "recolor necro specific affixes if T4+" "highlight lightning damage + cast speed affixes if T4+ "for my mage

to kinda still display some of them

[haughty compass]

Is firestarters torch still bugged?

[stone granite]

Yeah rares drop constantly, you don't need to collect them for other builds. Exalted are less common but do drop often in empowered

[arctic root]

Oki ! will work around that then

[ocean shuttle]

can the ancestral mirages from the puncture passive shotgun?

[fallow pine]

does manifest armor get unique effects

[red flume]

How rare is “rare” items?

Like I’m trying to grind Logi’s hunger from spirits of fire boss

And I’m wondering the drop rate

[fallow pine]

target farming in recent memory i had two examples of rare items

one took a day to farm, the other a full week

boss will probably be a lot lot easier though as its easier to get boss runs than target unique echos starting off , at least i think

[elder coral]

just made this

is this for a certain class or ?

[grave matrix]

hi! is there any list of cosmetics arround ?

[noble sedge]

can i check if through talents my skill cost becomes 0 mana, then does the idol that procs an effect with 0 mana skill work?

[inland flume]

For Bone Curse, Bone Eruption is triggered a few seconds after the curse is applied. Does the hit from Bone Eruption trigger Bone Curse to do damage?

[zenith hound]

Lost a level 74 marksmen last night, shifting through Lagons moving beam attack. Was really surprised, is there anything weird with that moves hitbox or bugged with invuln on shift?

[ivory zenith]

hey guys im trying to farm for a Chest Piece. I'm wondering if the Chestpiece Echo Rewards in empowered monoliths are more frequent the further away it is from the center, or is it random?

[acoustic thicket]

Shift invuln doesnt really work well with how crappy servers are if you're online even if alone.

Offline not too sure.
The online delay is so bad it is basically the entire duration of your invuln on shift so you end up just taking dmg anyway even while you dash or start the dash.

[zenith hound]

Yeah it was online, that was kinda my guess, the actual IFrames not lining up server side with the client 😦

[acoustic thicket]

Just wait till you have 4 people as a party and try to use shift :P
You end up either crashing or going backwards or just freezing inplace then die

[arctic root]

does it replaces the boss specific loot? I'm looking for the mountain shoes

[spark drum]

It's in addition

[arctic root]

oki 🙂

[vapid rock]

Would added melee cold damage on a weapon boost the damage on a fire melee skill?

[spark drum]

Yes

It's flat added damage

So it will scale with increased melee damage

[vague badge]

I think I finished the available story, what is there to do at the available endgame?

[vernal seal]

Anyone know if it would be better for a Spriggan build to do poison minions or like a physical spirit thorns/entangling roots build? Or kind of a mix?

[copper dune]

What time is reset for the dungeon tier bonuses/

[onyx grove]

what kind of items should i be looking for while gearing up? I end up leaving 99.9% of stuff cause it has affixes that are useless for me and havent gotten a better item since level 50, thinking im doing sth wrong

[hoary jewel]

how do i get apthy maw to drop im on empowerd and im still getting just the ring

[candid elm]

There's the monoliths in End of Time, there are dungeons, and there's the arena.

[vague badge]

do you have to unlock passives/idol slots for every new character?

[faint cape]

Yes

[vague badge]

rip, at least it isnt too har

[faint cape]

I usually end up taking the cold conversion, but I think all ways are fine

[faint cape]

Early game I usually grab magic items and craft what I need. Later on, don't forget that glyph of chaos exists - itema with bad affixes could get fixed by them

[zinc anchor]

Don't forget Glyph of Order too! I always forget about it 😦

[faint cape]

Fight shades with higher base corruption for more chance at the special uniques. I usually hold out for 14-16. Kinda rough to get thw max of 18

[clear topaz]

Forgive me if its placed somewhere but is there a 'roadmap' of sorts showing what's in store for Last Epoch in the future? I've been enjoying the game this past week

[restive wasp]

How much better is the drop rate of Exalted gear in empowered Monoliths? I'm close to the end of the base monolith grind and I feel like my gear has stalled big time in terms of upgrades

[onyx grove]

So for lategame, just chaos glyph on items with good base and terrible affixes?

[zinc anchor]

I would say only if it already has at least 1 or 2 good stats. If you try to chaos all 4 affixes, it's not going to work too well. that said there's very little risk, as most affix shards as well as chaos glyphs are common. So if you do that on the occasionally exalted with only 1 good stat (the tier 6+ one, preferably) then it might be OK.

[faint cape]

Quite a lot higher, really. You also start farming grand blessings, which open up more affixes on your gear

[onyx grove]

Dumb follow up question, whats an "exalted"?

[faint cape]

What MeltedWater said, you could also choose to hide all items with affixes you'll never use that are already T5 (can't chaos them at that point)

[faint cape]

It's the purple items, they have at least one T6+ stat, which is higher than you can craft

[onyx grove]

Would this be too strict?

im level 74

[zinc anchor]

That seems fine, as long as you're open to exalted items with only, maybe, 2 good stats, as they tend to have higher LP.

I have a filter similar to that one for rares, and it works out fine. When you DO see a rare drop, you know it's going to be pretty decent. If there's a specific piece that you have a really bad one and want an upgrade quicker, you can change it to 2 affixes for just that piece (say gloves for example)

[onyx grove]

so I pretty much pick up what gets displayed to me now and chaos all the useless affixes until its either good or ready to get shattered?

[zinc anchor]

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

don't just auto-shatter all items you don't want

Why do people do this?

Only shatter if it has affix shards you don't have many of >.<

People do this then complain they run out of shatters lol

The first part though yeah sure if you want

[onyx grove]

aight sounds good

Ill keep that no shatter spamm in mind :D

[zinc anchor]

😛

[onyx grove]

thank yall for your time and detailed explaining!

[minor vigil]

use runes of removal on valuable affixes like hybrid health

they're better than shatters if you have fp

[zinc anchor]

Yeah, what lucius said

[marble plume]

can I filter based on minimum forging potential?

[turbid geode]

what is the best zoom zoom build now?

[vernal seal]

If you have an item with a single affix, will that affix get transfered to an LP 1 item or can a blank spot get xfered?

[zinc anchor]

In order to make the legendary item you need an exalted with 4 unsealed affixes. Can't use one with less.

[vernal seal]

Ah, ok

[zinc anchor]

Yeah I wish you could do it with less. You can't even use an exalted with 3 unsealed and 1 sealed, cuz it just ignores sealed. I bricked my top 😦

Is there a unique boots that gives immunity to slow?

[faint cape]

No, actually there's very few status immunity mechanics in the game... cleanse on potion use is still excellent

[faint cape]

No

[red flume]

So how does crit chance in this game work?

Like I have + crit chance for minions

And I’m assuming 90% crit chance + crit effectiveness doesn’t actually give you a 90% chance to crit?

[zinc anchor]

90% crit chance means 90% chance to crit (- the enemy's critical strike avoidance), but if you see something like +90% that means 90% more than what they have now. If they have 10 base and you do 90% more then it's 19%

[gleaming cape]

the base amount is 5%

so math gets applied to that amount from your items, passives, and skill nodes

[wooden spade]

How does it work with share corruption to other monolith

I would say I’m in „endgame“ now but actually I’m just farming and crafting for better gear rn. Want to do some sanctum if I find something good and then push my corruption. I read that u can share it ? Or do I have to push corruption on every mono ?

[dry narwhal]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gV7Idl0vsJ0

[strange blaze]

is there any good way to get Ochirian's Petals with LP? Can Ochirian even drop it as an echo boss, or only from the campaign zone?

[faint cape]

The one from campaign cannot have LP. You need to buy relics from the soul gambler to get ochirian's ashes

[ivory zenith]

what's the best way to try and get Exsanguinous?

[next barn]

Is there a better place to farm uniques that have a low level requirement for LP?

[vernal seal]

Pretty sure each unique is set on its level requirement, and generally speaking the things you want to feed into them will be the level limiter, I think? Don't quote me on that 😛

[next barn]

Oh so for an item that only requires level 7 for LP like calamity I shoould still farm at the Black Sun empowered?

[tropic geyser]

guys how do i unlock blood frost and death?

i finished the ending the storm timeline second time but i couldnt go there

[weary moon]

Hey guys, got my first purple, can I change that purple affix to something else lightning?

Or is that fixed?

[dry narwhal]

it's fixed

[vernal seal]

Oh, I mean, the more magic find you have the more likely you are to get any unique with more LP. So the higher you can push your corruption while keeping good clear speed, the better odds of getting a level 0, or level 80 unique.

There's no way to really target farm anything except boss specific uniques.

[lofty sundial]

So, I'm two characters into the game and both have failed miserably. My acolyte/lich does no damage, and my thief/bladedancer also sucks. Both are squishies that have no upside as expected (Read: all glass, no cannon!) Despite my best efforts, perhaps I'm too new to craft since resources are limited. What is a build that just works regardless of class as a means to acquire shards/etc?

[solid wagon]

I cant remember.. penetration and res shred are independent, right?

[solid wagon]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/builds/beginner/1 Have a look at some of these that dont require many unique items. Watch a video if it's avilable to see how it clears

[lofty sundial]

I tried two builds from that, thus far - no power, many deaths. Acolyte and Rogue are pretty bad.

Acolyte's worse by a longshot though. Maybe I need to pick something else...third time's the charm?

[wooden spade]

First char first build aco/ necro Easy with no special gear easy emp 200 corruption monos, maybe u do something from?

[lofty sundial]

I've been given a recommendation for an easy primalist build too, so I'll try that if this doesn't work. I have my doubts on this working well, so your idea's probably at the front!

[wooden spade]

Which aco build@u tried ?

[wooden spade]

U remember? Aco builds including necro are mostly no brainer

[faint cape]

Kinda? They both reduce the same stat, but apply at different stages in the calculation, and shred sources all have caps

[solid wagon]

I just mean they will still increase damage at max shred stacks, right

pen will*

[faint cape]

yeah, pen has no cap

the only actual cap on shreds is in their stack limit, technically there's no shred cap either

[ocean shuttle]

is there an easy way to reset dancing strike stages other than waiting 2 seconds for it to do it by itself?

besides just doing the remaining 2 hits normally

[faint cape]

Pretty sure there's no uniques that mess with it, so if you don't see it in the skill spec tree, no

[ocean shuttle]

ah sadge

kinda wish the upgrade that spawns a shadow on the 2nd part had explicit reading like "doing anything other than dancing strike now resets stages"

because it makes dancing strike way more mana hungry and you're kinda left doing 1 2 bladestorm, wait 2 seconds repeat

[thin wadi]

The holy trail dps tooltip doesn't change when I spend my point in strategic patience, but every build guide uses that node, so uh, does it work or not work? hmm. When I google it, it says it works, but the tooltip in game says no? It doesn't mention the word hit so it should work, but it feels maybe like it's not? anyone happen to know?

[native sail]

Tooltip is wildly inaccurate especially for DoTs

[thin wadi]

oof, i've been using the tooltip to help me decide gear and skillpoints a LOT 🙂

so trust out of date random internet post over tooltip on DoTs?

[native sail]

Honestly.... yeah. It's better to trust the tried and true things instead of paying attention to the tooltip.
It's somewhat viable if you're a hit-based skill but even then it's a little iffy.

[thin wadi]

i just know there was a major patch last month so 2 month old posts could be wrong too 😦

another really important question uh, how do i kill ranged enemies with holy trail? any melee enemy, i can just trail, walk through trail, they follow, but it can take me like 20seconds to kill 3 basic ranged enemies, when i could probably kill two melee bosses in 12 seconds 😛

increased area of area skills doesn't make the trail fatter does it? the tooltip doesn't show the area scaling tag, so i assume it can't scale area?

[sterile widget]

Correct. Area tag required for Area scaling.

I personally wonder whether some will have Area tag added later. Eg. Smite has no Area tag either.

[vast barn]

Hello. If i wish to farm for these, do I need to farm on a sentinel class? or do they drop from a specific boss?

[mighty mango]

u can get drop for any class unless loot filter blocked it

[vast barn]

are they also usable on any class?

[mighty mango]

it should say on the bot right if its specific class if not any can use

[vast barn]

okay thank you. the (sentinel) tag is pretty confusing.

[mighty mango]

that might be the arena champion/boss sentinel

[ocean shuttle]

those look kinda nasty for bladedancer

[gilded void]

hey guys does this mean the attack/interact on left click is now properly working?

[orchid turret]

so im trying to do a flame reave build but not entirely sure when its time for me to switch to the skill and make it myt main dmg any insight

[spark drum]

In testing anyway

[gilded void]

tyty

[lavish spire]

Is there an overview of all the classes for 0.9? I have a ( I think) an almost leveled necromancer, but not sure how the class is right now, it's been like a year+ since I've played

[restive wasp]

Can a Rune of Ascendance give a unique like Twisted Heart?

Nvm a quick Google search answered that real quick

[candid elm]

I'm not sure if this is what you're asking for, but there are build guides here: https://www.lastepochtools.com/builds/
and
https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides

[lavish spire]

I guess in the simplest terms, a tier list?

[candid elm]

There's one on maxroll but I have no idea how accurate it is

[lavish spire]

I'm not sure either....

[quiet vault]

which builds in particular want bleeding heart? I haven't used it but got two 2LP to drop today

hammer paladin?

[ivory zenith]

what does this blue effect mean on my hp?

[spark drum]

Ward AFAIK

[ivory zenith]

ooooh

[spark drum]

More blue = more ward

[candid elm]

The leech from Bleeding Heart is any damage at all, so for example it works with Damage Over Time

[gentle mango]

its sued by shadow dagger bladedancer early on

[spark drum]

If you have ward >= current health your health orb will be totally frosted over

[quiet vault]

I'm on SD right now and already have leech elsewhere

[ivory zenith]

which is better to prioritise, ward per second or ward retention?

[quiet vault]

Just trying to figure out what to target on it with 2LP

[spark drum]

Both, but if you have to pick one then per second I'd say

[ivory zenith]

alright

[sharp zodiac]

Roughly how many shade fights until I'll see my first Apathy Maw haha sitting on 26 now and last 9 have been 100+ corruption 🤣

[bright sky]

is this useful for anything?

[candid elm]

Hmm it's just minimum 50 Corruption. Kind of surprised you didn't get one yet.

Looks like the ring is common, the boots are uncommon, the axe is uncommon 50+ corruption, and the belt is rare 120+ corruption and amulet is rare 200+ corruption

[faint cape]

Make sure you fight farther shades for a better chance, I usually hold out until 14-16 base corruption. Can be kinda rough to get all the way to 18

[sterile widget]

Arena has multiple champion bosses. One is a sentinel

[sharp zodiac]

Thanks guys

Getting frustrated to point of going back to POE... it feels i can farm a headhunter quicker at this rate 😅

[sterile widget]

RNG is a cow sometimes.

[latent canyon]

yes

[bitter delta]

Can you rearrange your skills while transformed?

[vernal seal]

Man, T4 Julra is BS. I keep getting one-shot by like... nothing I can see. I dodge everything then maybe clip a laser beam when it LOOKS like I'm safe? I dunno, fight is dumb.

[fickle sparrow]

does attack speed increase warpath damage

[faint cape]

Not unless they've fixed it, and I don't think they have yet?

[midnight kite]

What's the best build for necro plz send me dm with suggestions ty

[faint cape]

It increases its hit rate

[robust verge]

if I have fire elemental nova with Infernal Nova giving it a cooldown, how does that work if it's triggered by teleport?

[fickle sparrow]

tp node says it wonmt work with a cooldown

[robust verge]

gah so it doesn't. alack

[ocean shuttle]

can the ancestral mirages from puncture shotgun?

the 15 mana talent that spawns 2 mirages I mean

[west vapor]

best way to farm empowered mono boss?

[acoustic glacier]

Hey I'm new to the game and this discord server and a bit nervous... :) anyways I just wanted to know if:"Fulgurite Shard" dagger is a quest reward or a rare drop from some boss perhaps?

[fickle sparrow]

epoch tools is the best place to check but it should just be a world drop

[slim egret]

question for the peeps here, if i have 2 throne of ambition is it 4% per stack or only 2%?

[stone granite]

Pretty sure it's 4% but still get stacks at 1 per

[frank veldt]

Can someone explain how corruption works? I've read through the guide and I've seen people reference the mono's they are doing and the corruption total. Here's mine but it rarely changes.

[stone granite]

It only changes when you fight the shade

[frank veldt]

Where is the shade? Is higher corruption better or vice versa?

what affect does corruption actually have ?

[slim egret]

yes and no, it increases the level/difficulty

better drops but harder and harder

[frank veldt]

OK - by fighting the shade, does it increase or decrease?

[slim egret]

increase, and decrease if you find one that says so

[frank veldt]

ok

[slim egret]

the shade of orobys is a echo node randomly foound on your time line tree. the farther you go the more likly it will appear

[frank veldt]

ok thank you.

[mild geyser]

The tooltips for my abilities show higher damage wearing the armor on the left.

By a LOT (like 6400 dmg vs 5500).

How is that possible?

Armor on the right is clearly better in a million ways, no?

[flat grail]

any fix to this im stuck

[native sail]

Fulgurite Shard is a global drop, it can drop anywhere the area level is higher than its level requirement. There's only two quest uniques, and any that are boss exclusive are clearly labeled as such on any databases.

[neat vector]

Looked at the tooltip but cant find it, do the shield skills (bash, throw) scale weapon damage at all?

Or is it just a stat stick

[faint cape]

They are still just melee attacks, your weapon(s) apply like usual

[native sail]

Shield Throw is not a melee attack

[faint cape]

Good point, I didn't read very well

[neat vector]

Shield throw just wants a stat stick than?

[stone granite]

Shield throw is terrible as a main damage dealer, trust me

[west vapor]

im getting wrecked on empowered emperor of corpses

im trying to get the twisted heart

is there any way someone could help me kill it

[dry narwhal]

are you standing in the blood pools?

casue they do a lot of damage, otherwise that fight is actually free, currently

[west vapor]

im about to swap in a piece or armor with more physical and poison and see how it goes im kinda low on those

[dry narwhal]

necrotic would be the one for him

unless your modifiers on him are rough or your defenses are that bad

he should not be that hard

[west vapor]

hmm

[dry narwhal]

other than your phys res being a tad low you should have 0 issues

this bone golem shatter necro?

[west vapor]

bone golem

[dry narwhal]

yeah attacking your golem for deeps

[dry narwhal]

how do you usually die in the fight

[spark drum]

By taking damage > total EHP

[dry narwhal]

[west vapor]

well usually when the aoe wave goes out and comes back in i get stuck there in the middle

[dry narwhal]

the middle one got nerfed by 80% damage cause of an accidental map change so that should actually be tankable

i take like ~200 damage at most from it on most builds

[west vapor]

spirit breath actually it looks like

[dry narwhal]

oh, thats just a matter of pattern watching then

remember bosses dont heal if you dont have the regen modifier for it lol

so take your time

[neat vector]

Hammer throw cares about weapon damage I assuyme?

[sterile widget]

Do you think they are harder to see than they used to be? I did it a couple times this past week and seems like colour balance changed

[placid gate]

Is it possible for legendaries to have double of the same affix? For e.g. % minion damage on Aberrant Call

[neat vector]

Oh wow im piecing it together. There is no "weapon damage" stat in the traditional sense.

[fickle sparrow]

yes

[neat vector]

Weapons just have a phat +x damage type

[fickle sparrow]

stack it up

[placid gate]

Thanks!

[west vapor]

does rip blood count as a minion spell in the bone golem build when used on the minion?

[zinc anchor]

Are dungeon keys more likely to drop at higher corruption levels?

[placid gate]

Man, tfw rolling a 2LP legendary with trash rolls

[zinc anchor]

I would say no, it doesn't have the minion tag (though that doesn't always mean anything), unless there's something I'm missing

[spark drum]

Yep, skills have a base damage and weapons have added damage implicits

[vernal seal]

Is there a class/spec/build that has an easier time with Julra than others?

I'm real sick of not being able to clear T4, and not finding the upgrades I need to make it more possible.

[latent canyon]

Yes. Currently nec abuses some bug that can kill t4 julras in couple seconds

And ofc every smite paladin rofl stomps it

[vernal seal]

Is there a javelin/smite paladin? Because I hate hammers ;P

[latent canyon]

Smite with manifested armor sure

[spark drum]

I'd imagine a Spellblade with the invulnerability node on Surge can just ignore the dungeon skill and facetank her instakill

[latent canyon]

Haven't seen any real life examples but I don't think you have nearly enough dps

[vernal seal]

I don't struggle with the instakill, I struggle with trying to dodge the homing missile while not getting clipped by lasers randomly.

[latent canyon]

Didn't know she has a homing missile

[spark drum]

Probably because you kill her in 4 seconds

[vernal seal]

It's a white swirly-water-air lookin' thing.

[latent canyon]

I thought like every other build youcan ignore everything else other than explosion and void puddle

No clue I face tank everything else

[vernal seal]

Will drop me out of Reaper form if it touches me. And even with that saving grace, I just can't do the fight perfectly enough for long enough. I've gotten her down to 30% and then just one pixel slip and it's over.

[latent canyon]

No I don't play nec but Ive seen vids of it with not gg gear

Pretty good exhalts nothing spectacular

[vernal seal]

Even my druid gets one-shot if it touches a laser.

[latent canyon]

Rip

The void laser ofc I stand in the gap

That one I can tank like 3 hits but the 4th will kill me

Burns too much ward

[west vapor]

wow second run of the boss and got my twisted heart

[latent canyon]

Yes it's pretty common I have 5 of them from 20runs

Or so

But when you need a 2lp that's when the struggle begins

[proper idol]

Somewhat newer player, for dual wielding rogues, is it better to use double swords or double daggers?

And is Gambler’s Fallacy good at lower levels for fast paced skills? Or would I be better off using a different amulet

[ocean shuttle]

I just startee yesterday and I'm on swords because my pp is small

I nedd the glancing blow chance

[flat grail]

what does the echoes quest do they dont give loot

[dry narwhal]

different amulet, gamblers is good for like a couple scenarios

[spark drum]

Advance to higher level monoliths

[steady star]

if i convert volcanic orb to Colt/Void the explotion perks will also convert yes? the rne did but can't conferm the explotions

[kind marsh]

does a percent skill damage node on ability increase the damage of the ailments it inflicts? Like if I had 16% percent damage to warpath would it increase the damage of bleeds inflicted

[steady star]

Bleed and poison and other Dots scales only from DoT

[kind marsh]

thank you

[steady star]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/ailments/

Use this to look up ailments and what they scale from

[kind marsh]

dps on tooltip was confusing me

[steady star]

I get that 😄

You can see your damage on bleed on other (C) and make sure its correct aswell

[soft rock]

Hey, will this game have leagues and such like POE after it fully releases?

[steady star]

Not yet

There will be after release and such if my memory service me right

[sterile widget]

"Cycles" will come with or after 1.0. At the moment, we also know that all content that comes in a cycle will go into the base game (at least for now)

[vernal seal]

I think I just need more health for my Lich so that the stupid homing shot from Julra doesn't drop me out of Reaper form immediately =/

[sterile widget]

How much health you at?

[rustic fulcrum]

I'm on my 1st alt character and currently just hitting quests that give idols / passives, is that the correct play for the campaign skip meta? Can main quests (gold colored) that don't grant idols / passives also be skipped, or do we need to do all main quests?

[sterile widget]

Idols and passive mostly come from side quests I believe. You can skip chunks of campaign using dungeons and still get all passive and idols by end Chap 7 if I recall

[vernal seal]

[white crescent]

Arcane Ascendence...when I activate it, it shows that my damg goes up a lot on my skill-bar, but when I use it on mobs and now test dummy, the damg doesn't go up using meteor. I do a lot of crits and can say for sure it's not working on the crits. I don't think it's improving my non crits too. It's just not working :/ Any ideas? Also, it says it gives 100% extra spell damage (im questioning that lol) but press ALT and it says, "applied at 40% effectiveness". I don't rly understand that...so it's not 100%? Although when i tested it seemed more like 0% :/

Am doing high damg I havent tried it with a low level

[sterile widget]

Oh baby. Yeah, so most people who are fighting T4 Julra have like 2.5 or more as I recall. Of course, you can do the fight on 1 HP if you don't get hit, but there's only so many people with that monstrous skill and reaction time

[vernal seal]

I mean, I keep getting her to like 30% and then I'll just do something dumb. Clip a laser or start missing her with my attacks so I'm not healing from the things that I CAN face tank or whatever.

Skill issue for sure

[sterile widget]

In the T4s race, pretty sure one chap did all 4 bosses with 1500HP so it's definitely doable 🙂

[vernal seal]

I mean, if I can get her to 30% I can kill her. Just gotta stop failing =/

[sterile widget]

You can do it 🙂 I believe it

If I completed Bloodborne, you can beat T4 Julra 🙂

[vernal seal]

The sad thing is that I'm way better at souls-likes than I am at Julra haha

Julra's just slightly too janky. I'll get clipped by lasers when it looks like I should be safe.

[sterile widget]

Yeah, some hit boxes in Last Epoch are a bit iffy. Elder Gaspar has the same issue. I don't know why my head hair takes so much damage

Maybe burnt hair smell is just that unpleasant

[unborn dome]

Does the blessing "Increased Belt Shard Drop Rate" affect Orobys "shattered chains" belt drop ??

[sterile widget]

Nope. Belt Shard means affix shards (crafting materials), not Belts.

[unborn dome]

ahh sorry i ment the blessing >> (35% to 75%) Increased Belt Drop Rate <-- does that one affect Orobyss shattered chains drop rate?

[agile lodge]

Just started empowered monos. Are the first and second story missions no longer mandatory to complete the final boss? They're saying they're optional now

[dry narwhal]

optional means you don't have to do them

[agile lodge]

Is there any benefit to doing them anyway, afaik they don't really drop anything?

[dry narwhal]

no

[agile lodge]

cool ty

[sterile widget]

Use em to burn a mod if you need to

[sterile widget]

Ok, so i wasnt 100% sure, but dev message here confirms if the drop is boss specific, blessing has no effect.

#👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs message

You just gotta keep killing the boss until you get that boss specific drop you want

[unborn dome]

dang i really thought orobyss would be affected by that.. guess i need to farm more..ty 4 clearing it up

[mild geyser]

Someone help me understand this. The purple belt, when I equip it I lose 300 dps on umbral blades.

[dry narwhal]

probably tooltips just being weird

[mild geyser]

is there any way to fix that?

Because honestly, I really don't have ANY clue how to value different stats and so I really need my tooltips to be correct.

like throwing dmg, vs +dex, vs +cold, vs +physical, vs +other things. I have no idea which one adds more dmg if I cant trust the tooltip

ok weird

so yellow belt was 7000 dps, purple was 6500. a minute later, now with purple belt its 8100 dps

all I did was tab out and talk to you guys 😛

[sick yacht]

Do you have on gamblers fallacy or some other thing that cycles damage increases?

[mild geyser]

I dont think so. I dont even know what that is

[sick yacht]

Also, if you're shadow daggers build, I would look at that instead of umbal blades, since that's your actual damage

[mild geyser]

how do I look at shadow dagger dmg?

[sick yacht]

Mouseover one of the nodes in a skill that procs it and press alt

The specific node that grants shadow daggers

[elder coral]

Are void knights good?

[sick yacht]

Yeah

[mild geyser]

which node of which ability is it?

[sick yacht]

Almost every ability can grant shadow daggers

[elder coral]

all the way to end game?

[sick yacht]

Yeah

[elder coral]

loll ty

[mild geyser]

yeah I dont see a single node with dmg info on it

in any ability

[elder coral]

wanted to make one

[celest hornet]

hi does increased elemental damage also boost elemental dot dmg ?

[sick yacht]

Type shadow daggers in your search bar. Mouseover the node that grants it and press alt.

[acoustic glacier]

What should I combine with the Fulgurite Shard dagger in the other weapon slot as a Lightning Chakram Rogue?

[sick yacht]

Yeah

[celest hornet]

ty

[sick yacht]

(press alt for more information)

[mild geyser]

oh god, when I press alt it brings up a window behind it that I can vaguely see says 32,000 something.

but man, that's cumbersome as fuck for comparing gear. lol.

[sick yacht]

Another one

[sick yacht]

Then look on another tree. That's not the only skill that grants shadow daggers

[mild geyser]

yeah but either way. open up skill tree, mouse over node, hit alt, just to get a dmg info for comparing 2 pieces of gear?

[sick yacht]

Yeah

[mild geyser]

that's INSANELY cumbersome. no? compared to just mousing over one of my ability hot keys to roughly see which is giving me more dmg?

[acoustic glacier]

Second dagger, first attempt, got another one! lmao someone is smiling upon me today :p

[sick yacht]

Sure, but your main ability isn't used, it's a proc on every ability you use.

[sick yacht]

Gz

[mild geyser]

yeah but when comparing zillions of gear items, opening up skill tree, find node, mosue over it, hit alt, look at the obscured number behind another window. that's a mess

[sick yacht]

Ok, do what you want. I'm not a dev, I'm just telling you how to effectively tell if you're actually getting more damage

[dry narwhal]

its a proc off of a skill, theres not a way to do it better.

[mild geyser]

I feel you bro. I'm just saying wow that's a pain, no? 😛

Ok I found one where it doesnt put the window underneath another window

[sick yacht]

Nice

[mild geyser]

I have to admit. even at lvl 64 shadow dancer, I dont really full understand exactly what is happening in my build. procs off procs off procs. lol.

I just dash through shit and it all dies. throw a few umbral blades to spin around maybe. and if its a big boss, smoke cloud and syncronized strike it.

[dry narwhal]

let the magic happen

https://tenor.com/view/magic-confetti-awesome-gif-11884906

[sick yacht]

Basically everything you do procs a shadow dagger. It stacks to 3, on the 4th one it "detonates" and always crits and makes things die.

[mild geyser]

and always crits and makes things die.

accurate

[abstract aspen]

did they turn of some asia servers? I play from asia but always get connected to us west

[acoustic glacier]

What are the best bases; "common" chest and boots called for Rogues and in which shop/Era do I buy them?

[fluid eagle]

Got my bladedancer to 95 and never once checked the dps on shadow daggers lol

Just stack crit multi and number go up

[fluid eagle]

You can go to the item filter ingame and there are subtypes for every gear, otherwise go to lastepochtools.com for a complete database

[fluid eagle]

Sync strikes, shadow cascade on shift, zoom around the map, just don't stop moving or you'll die

[mild geyser]

do you even bother throwing umbral daggers?

[fluid eagle]

Umbral blade triggers on shift, so mostly no

[mild geyser]

so you just kill everything with shift, and then sync strike on bosses?

[fluid eagle]

Ideally yeah

[mild geyser]

I still throw a few daggers myself on trash but maybe that's a waste

[fluid eagle]

Snyc strikes on mobs is also not bad, better animation than umbral

[mild geyser]

it uses a shitton of mana though

I hadn't been stacking crit mult that much b/c my crit chance is only 16%

[fluid eagle]

It gains mana on hit I think?

[fluid eagle]

You dont need crit chance, it always crits

[mild geyser]

lol

[fluid eagle]

Sec getting off my train

[mild geyser]

so I'm really stupid for not being specced into All In

[dry narwhal]

yes

thats like 75% crit damage

[mild geyser]

I was worried about it b/c of my low crit chance

what makes sync strike always crit?

[dry narwhal]

shadow dagger does

not sync

[fluid eagle]

Yeah

[mild geyser]

so All In is going to make my umbral daggers that dont crit shittier, but that doesnt really matter, e h?

should I even try to get my regular crit chance up?

[dry narwhal]

you only care about shadow daggers

umbral daggers damage is irrelevant

its decent for applying a shadow dagger or 2 and chill

and thats it

[crude jewel]

the shrapnel`s of meteor does not hit the target itself, only around the explosion/outside the area where meteor lands, right? also how much is the base shrapnel dmg?

[flat grail]

Does higher level moniloths drop better gear?

Does higher level gear mean better?

[iron mango]

I just did the Spirits of fire in empowered, I couldnt unlock the last bonus (+60-100% minion damages), why ?

[mighty edge]

hi here, any idea why i can't do empowored monolith ? i do the 3 lvl 90

[dry narwhal]

did you click the thing in the middle

[mighty edge]

nothing happens in middle

[dry narwhal]

are the 3 beams of light active

[mighty edge]

i check that now !

Some bug , i déco reco for ask and now it's ok

thanks for your time @dry narwhal

[dry narwhal]

npnp

[crude jewel]

the shrapnel`s of meteor does not hit the target itself, only around the explosion/outside the area where meteor lands, right? also how much is the base shrapnel dmg?

[dry narwhal]

i don't play meteor

[surreal jewel]

meteor base damage is 180 (with 900% damage scaling)
shrapnel deals 23 damage, with 100% damage scaling

so, very roughly, each shrapnel will deal about 10% of the damage your meteor deals

[crude jewel]

ty

and is there a workaround if i bug out on lagons trial that after death the respawn button disapear and i stay in the arena and be death?

[surreal jewel]

none that I know of, stuff like that happens all the time

[crude jewel]

since the last patch i recognise so many little bugs that where not there before

didnt before for me mhm

[surreal jewel]

aye, same, if you want I can come in and help with Lagon, if the game brings bugs, you bring a friend

not like you cant beat him, but sure sucks to take 15 minutes to check if it bugs again

[crude jewel]

lol naaah its fine iam 6 lvl under, didnt bother for items ^^ and have 0% physical res xD

its clear iam dying but i dont wanna farm lvls ^^

[surreal jewel]

did the kill count for the quest?

[crude jewel]

what you mean kill count?

[surreal jewel]

thought you are in campaign

[crude jewel]

yes

[surreal jewel]

well, is the quest complete or do you have to kill him again?

[crude jewel]

not he is death and i cant leave I AM death and i cant respawn

[surreal jewel]

relog

[crude jewel]

then i need to do the previous boss too

[surreal jewel]

(or alt+f4

[crude jewel]

thats why i ask for workaround

^^

[surreal jewel]

I dont know a workaround, but I know a speedup, hence why I offered to come over

[crude jewel]

but as you said theres non so ty

dont need a speedup i know how to kill just a workaround to get out of that bug ... maybe its because i have ward per sec the game bugs out the respawn button and think iam still alive

[surreal jewel]

happened to me on character with no ward at all, too

also once had it that I was dead, could not respawn, my buddy died but could run in again and again, killed a 300 corruption orobys shade on her level 60 character, only took her like 100 deaths

[blissful zenith]

Went through the Lightless Dungeon door (put key in) but it's a dead end... What am I missing?

[surreal jewel]

nothing, known issue

[blissful zenith]

Ok thanks

[surreal jewel]

did you play monos before?

[blissful zenith]

Yes I just unlocked Empowered

[surreal jewel]

seems running monos and then dungeons is the issue

[blissful zenith]

This is my first time logging in today

didnt run monos today

[surreal jewel]

ah, okay, well that helps me as it proves me wrong, but doesnt help you, at all

[blissful zenith]

No worries, I'll relog

Thanks

[surreal jewel]

here is another user, same problem, and he also has a theory 😄 https://old.reddit.com/r/LastEpoch/comments/12hysi7/dungeon_entrance_bug_workaround/

[acoustic thicket]

just beat majasa, is that the final boss of the campaign or what?

[surreal jewel]

yes

[acoustic thicket]

hmm is the story gonna continue in future patches or do we just do endgame from here on?

[dry narwhal]

yes theres 3 more chapters planned

[acoustic thicket]

i see

and theres no plans to delete or reset characters right?

[dry narwhal]

nope

[surreal jewel]

no, but there will be seasons at some point

[acoustic thicket]

thats awesome

[dry narwhal]

thats likely awhile out but yes

[acoustic thicket]

im not familiar with how seasons work

i know that in diablo but i never really cared to played endgame d3 after completing the campaign

[surreal jewel]

like he said, this is a good bit away, but when it eventually is introduced, it just means that at a certain time a season starts, all older characters are playable and all, but in their own category, and all new chars are in that season, can play together and, erm, well it mostly matters for people who are into ranks and stuff

it isnt overly important for most players

[acoustic thicket]

do seasons reset stats or ur level when a new one starts?

[surreal jewel]

nah, nothing

I shouldnt have brought it up, it isnt really related to your question about character resets

[acoustic thicket]

nah its cool im curious, im having fun with the game

[surreal jewel]

well now is your time to dive into monoliths

[acoustic thicket]

oh ya i do have one more question

a friend of mine is buying this game this weekend and i need to know how to play multiplayer with him so we can co op on a fresh character, i dont see anything online on how to co op or multiplayer, game doesnt even tell you unless i missed it

[dry narwhal]

H for the homies

[surreal jewel]

press H

[acoustic thicket]

oh wow lol

[surreal jewel]

send him a friend invite, invite to game, that is all

[acoustic thicket]

wish the game told u that

[surreal jewel]

easy peasy

[acoustic thicket]

ya thanks

[dry narwhal]

i think it does

[acoustic thicket]

guess i missed it

[dry narwhal]

in a text box at the beginning of the game

[surreal jewel]

2nd pop up as you start a new character or something

[sterile widget]

Yeah I think it is one of the first popups.

Very easy to just click through it

[dry narwhal]

it was being asked a lot so they added the box lol

[surreal jewel]

1: how to move
2: how to smack somebody
3: how to press H

[dry narwhal]

how to switch skills was added too lol

[sterile widget]

Also, by the time you are through to chap 9 you probably wouldn't remember 😄

[surreal jewel]

anyway, it works well and is really straightforward

[sterile widget]

Still, better than nada

[rocky hornet]

how close is "nearby" for allies benefiting from holy aura?

[surreal jewel]

usually "nearby" is a keyword for 4 meters, but in case of the aura there seems to be no limit

[rocky hornet]

So according to Holy Aura, Sagittarius A* is nearby to earth? We are so fucked. (Thanks for the answer 🙂 )

[surreal jewel]

according to aura, "nearby" is anything in the same load zone

[dry narwhal]

i think its 6 actually

[surreal jewel]

according to anything else, "nearby" means within 4 meters

[dry narwhal]

bastion was nerfed to 4

[rocky hornet]

Hey hey, you said no limit. Don't back down now

Holy Aura reaches into the cosmos.

[dry narwhal]

holy aura can be anything it wants to be

[acoustic glacier]

Ok so on purple items I see that there is always one or two of the stats highlighted with a purple text. What purpose does that serve?

[ocean shuttle]

I'm guessing the evade > glancing blow talent is mainly for marksman who want to get good defenses with mininal investment?

[sleek sluice]

Higher tier than you can craft

[ocean shuttle]

and branch over to bladedancer to grab that

[sleek sluice]

T5 is max craft and t6/t7 is drop only

[ocean shuttle]

seems like a terrible idea to lose all your evasion

[acoustic glacier]

Uhm ok so does it mean that purple items are used for crafting to make that item even stronger or do I extract the effect that is highlighted with purple text? Please pardon my newbieness, I bought the game 3-4 days ago and I'm still learning all the stuff :)

[sleek sluice]

So exalted items are better version of items, since it has 1-2 t6 or t7 tiers on em, these are alsoo used for Uniques that drop with legendary potential in hope to get the t6/t7 from it onto the unique

you can craft on the exalted items, meaning make other modifiers on the item better, but you cannot increase the tier of the exalted stat

so if u had an item with 1 t6 and 3 t1-t4 you can upgrade/reroll the t1-t4 to make em better and you now have a great item with 1 buffed stat

like this, i got it with t6 necrotic dmg and 2 resistance on it, i crafted the crit + health onto it

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZF-VlZynzQM

you can get more info here, for example Sealing stats

[acoustic glacier]

Ok I think I get the general gist of it. Thanks for explaining :)

[latent herald]

Heyah, Im interested in the game lore but couldnt find any relevant video through youtube search, does anyone know good story recaps or lore videos? 🍿

[lament stirrup]

what does BE stand for when referring to time?
eg Divine Era is 12 BE
Before Eterra? Before Epoch?

[cobalt pumice]

there is a chance for dungeon bosses to not drop any unique? just did lightless arbor tier2 and no unique from boss

[dry narwhal]

only guaranteed one is temporal (unless bugged, which it might be for the moment)

[cobalt pumice]

Which one is the temporal? And yes I guess it's bugged since I didn't get any unique from the boss

[dry narwhal]

temporal sanctum

i just mean that one is bugged

the other 2 dont have a guaranteed drop

temporal has a guaranteed drop of a unique item with at least 1 lp so you can always interact with the dungeon mechanic

[cobalt pumice]

Ohh I see

Well bad luck then

[dry narwhal]

ye

[acoustic glacier]

Ok so I watched the crafting guide on Youtube, but my English is not the best.

How or where do I see what tier my items are currently on? I used 2x "Rune of Ascendance" on two daggers and got two "Fulgurite Shards" right away (for my Lightning Chakram Rogue), what tier does that make those weapons?

And also I still don't fully understand what the purple highlighted text on purple items serve, other than it has some connection with Legendary items :/

From what I understood you get a random stat from the Exalted (purple) item onto the Unique if you craft them together, which then becomes the Legendary?

Please excuse my thick head, poor English and newbieness. I've been up all night/morning playing this awesome game, and I'm eager to learn/understand more/better! :)

[dry narwhal]

to see tiers hold alt+control, but doesnt show for uniques

purple highlighted items are exalted, exalted is t6 and t7 but they are drop only so they have higher rolls on the purple stat

and yeah thats how unique +exalted= lege works

you've got it pretty much

[blissful zenith]

I've just unlocked Empowered, what should I be doing for gear? Just running empowereds?

[dry narwhal]

that kinda is the answer

[severe fjord]

depends on what your build requires

[dry narwhal]

look for rare/exalted nodes of what you want

and those are more common in empowered

[blissful zenith]

Only two uniques, 1 of which is farmable

[severe fjord]

what uniques do you need?

[blissful zenith]

Prism Wraps and Twisted Heart of Uhkeiros

[neon seal]

I just realized I'm probably wasting points bc of a silly misinterpretation I had while I was build planning a while ago. The Frost Bites node in swarmblade form won't convert this increased poison damage to increased frostbite damage right?

[severe fjord]

https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/timelines, a good link that covers all blessings and rewards, your first step would be either to get all the empowered blessings you want, or to go farm your required uniques in set monoliths

[blissful zenith]

thanks

[solid wagon]

Can I use an exalted rogue relic on a sentinel unique relic for legendary purposes?

[ocean shuttle]

does retreat into shadow for sync strike make it faster?

it'd be a great ability it's just really slow

[neon seal]

Alright tested on dummies and am pretty sure that like I said I misinterpreted this somehow when I was build planning 😅 glad it's easy to respec :D

[faint cape]

Right. Damage scaling never gets converted unless it's typeless (like +spell damage) or explicitly stated (really rare).

[neon seal]

Yea I figured as much I must've been tired when I was doing the build planner lol

All good, means I was able to move those points into the +damage over time while transformed node 👍

[faint cape]

I think so, but it definitely can't have any rogue-specific affixes on it

[solid wagon]

Oh that makes sense, yeah

[acoustic thicket]

What is ward ?

[neon seal]

Ward is basically a shield :)

[acoustic thicket]

Should i get some ward i am making my own build for necromancer

[neon seal]

It would depend if you can generate it well

[acoustic thicket]

how much do i need to get a good shield ?

[lavish spire]

Does anyone know of any sort of tier list/class overview? I haven't played in over a year, and only have a necro (which I'm not even sure how necros are right now)

[fluid eagle]

for most builds generally focusing on life is enough (even ideal), I'm not familiar with the necro tree but sorcerer has some insane ward generation

[neon seal]

You generally need a lot since I'm pretty sure ward takes more damage than your raw hp

[faint cape]

It's basically an extra health pool on top of your health

it has no max, but decays faster the more you have

[acoustic thicket]

how much ward would i need if i have 516 hp

[neon seal]

sorry I dont think this is true Im pretty sure I'm thinking about how endurance doesnt apply to ward my bad :D

[faint cape]

depends on your level, but you probably want to have a total of at least 2000ish life+ward by the end game

if you are dying too much, you want more than you have currently (among other defenses, probably)

[fluid eagle]

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/tierlists/mastery-tier-list this one is not bad, though it is about the classes generally and about high end late game potential, every class has decent potential that'll easily get you into the endgame with no build guides

[acoustic glacier]

Last question about crafting I swear! Before I potentially destroy my beautiful Fulgurite Shards daggers...

Should I use Rune of Removal on the Exalted item(s) and pray that a useless stat gets removed(but won't that make the Exalted item non-Exalted as in removing the purple text and thus becoming unable to use to craft for Legendaries)?

or should I use Rune of Shattering on the Exalted item as they are and hope for the best, that a useful stat remains once the Exalted item is destroyed?

No more crafting questions after this I promise! :p

[fluid eagle]

not sure what you mean with the shattering, the item is gone afterwards and you can't craft anything, you just get a bunch of shards.
The removal play is decent, depending on the tier of the other stats and their usefulness you can also:

• glyph of chaos and yolo
  -seal an affix (generally recommended for t1 or t2 affix, as it gets unlikelier the higher the tier) and replace with a desirable affix

are you crafting the exalted for use or for legendary? also depends on the gear e.g. wands have generally useless suffixes so not worth wasting FP on them

[rapid talon]

Just dropped Exanguinous + steps of the living, should I roll up a spellblade or lich for a low life build?

[acoustic glacier]

What I ment with the Rune of Shattering was that I thought it created a special Exalted exclusive material, since I destroyed an Exalted item, but it doesn't work that way by what you are saying.

In a nutshell:"I have the Fulgurite Shards Uniques and I want to make them Legendary" nothing else. I have a few Exalted items aswell with "Increase Lightning Damage", "Increase Physical Damage" and one with "Critical Strike Multiplier" as the purple texts which I'm considering to use on the daggers.

So what I get from you is that you craft both items together and with as few stats on the Exalted item as possible, yeah?

[fluid eagle]

rune of shattering removes the gear entirely, generally used to gather valuable shards on 'bad' drops (for example hybrid health, +to levels on blue/yellow items) or just to stock up on shards, decent practice even if you don't care that much about crafting

you can only craft a legendary with an exalted with 4 affixes, so your last point wouldn't work, depends on the amount of legendary potential really, the potential to brick lowers significantly with higher LP and more desirable stats

Looking for some build advice

I’m almost through regular monos but something’s missing and hoping for some advice.

I was going for a shaman build around cold upheaval and tried a few different variants. It’s pretty tanky but the damage is pretty slow. I posted planner on the passives and skills but am curious how you all would tweak it and gear it.

The idea is basically to gain a bunch of damage through the thorn totems, warcry gives 200% crit and 250% cold damage and beserk (flat + AS), leap gives flat dmg and frenzy, ice thorns gives 100% cold dmg when I’m hit. When I have everything up it’s pretty solid but hard to sync it all up

https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/YQWV2y4A

[fluid eagle]

so here I would either chaos lower tier affixes and hope for the best(honestly not that bad of a play if you increase your range of desired stats since it's going to be consumed anyways), or gamble the 1/4 to replace a bad affixes with a guaranteed good one (given you have enough shards of your desired affix)

[acoustic glacier]

@fluid eagle Thank you for your patience with me and for the clarifications good sir! I understand how it works now :)

[fluid eagle]

glad to help 🙂

[acoustic glacier]

I bought the game 3-4 days ago so still got a ton of stuff to learn, but crafting-wise I understand and I like how it works tbh! "A bit" more complicated than the crafting system in Diablo 3 lmao, but yeah interesting to play around with and maximize the stats before you use it up, or if I just wanna yolo it since I lack the necessary runes to do so. Think I need to get more shards aswell hehe 👍

[quiet vault]

Early on it feels like you are just lacking all the resources, but just keep playing. Shards won't be a problem at all eventually. I'd recommend creating a filter rule that shows any item that drops with particular affixes you really want

Then you store those in your stash until you can either do rune of removal (for higher tier ones to get multiple shard copies) or just shatter

Rune of removal on a tier 5 affix will give you 5 shards, but a shatter is like a random amount of shards for all the affixes on the item so it's less reliable

[acoustic glacier]

Yeah I see what you mean, and I like the idéa of creating a filter for the items like you suggested aswell!

[fluid eagle]

last epoch is great at encouraging SSF crafting (even in grim dawn you mostly farmed instead of crafted), it seems complex at first but is quite intuitive and forgiving

[crude jewel]

increased spell damage for example from meteor increases only the impact dmg not the shrapnel (same for other spells)? and increased elemental damage would increase both impact of meteor and the shrapnel, right?

and elemental damage would also increase elemantal dots like ignite but not get increased from spell damage that then would add an ignite dot?

[faint cape]

The subskills of spells are almost always also spells (shrapnel is a spell subskill), so they will be affected by your spell damage. Ignite deals fire damage over time (not spell damage), so it will be increased by your elemental/fire/DOT damage, but not spell/attack damage.

Ailments and most subskills also "inherit" damage modifiers on the skill that applies them. That means your attribute scaling and applicable skill spec nodes will apply (like "more fire damage" on fireball will affect its ignites, but "more hit damage" will not)

[crude jewel]

ah i see ok, and how is the scaleing on base-stat for the spells, what i mean for example INT meteor; T5 50% increased spell dmg or T5 8 INT, what makes more damage output on the end?

or TLDR is it more worth go on INT instead of increased dmg?

[faint cape]

When you press Alt on the skill tooltip, it'll detail exactly what attributes do for that skill, it varies. Damage dealing skills usually get 4% increased damage per point, which is generic and will apply to everything the skill does

[sleek sluice]

Rune of shattering destroy the item, meaning you lose it

Rune of removal tends to be risky to use, since you risk losing the t6/t7, you could try and use chaos glyph and hope you get something better on the useless mod, or keep farming if it goes wrong for better item to use

If the exalted stat(t6 or t7) is lost on the item then yes it's not a exalted item anymore but if rune of removal removes a normal stat it's still a exalted

Rune of removal can cost alot of forging potential

[faint cape]

attributes do also inherently grant defensive bonuses to your character and may get other scaling from uniques or passives, so that's something else to consider over just raw % inc damage

[crude jewel]

ok so 8x4=32% so the 50% increased would me get more....kk so if my build/focus would be more on one spell or 2 where that 4% would apply, it would be more efficent if i go with increased dmg, but if i would use other stuff that relay on INT it would overall better go on INT or a good balance of both, do i understand you right?

[faint cape]

Yeah, I'd say that's a good way to go about things!

[crude jewel]

thanks that helps me a lot <3

[faint cape]

No problem ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ

[steady star]

Anyone knows if these scales with the converted element? the rune seem to change colour atleast

[cyan lava]

Is there a place to save and share builds? I can look up, but not store simple builds here https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/

[steady star]

you can save there

[faint cape]

If the color changes, it is converted. It would definitely be a bug if it behaved otherwise, though the conversion tooltip is probably inadequate either way.

[steady star]

explosive grounds tho u can't really see

What makes me scared is this

[faint cape]

Yeah... I think it probably does convert all its subskills, but unfortunately conversions are the area where the game's communication is the most lacking for me

[steady star]

I know right xD

[faint cape]

Still waiting on them to fix locust swarm's cold conversion myself 😂

[steady star]

And the silly bug for scarifies where the chain effect is busted

its beta

[faint cape]

it effectively was deleted in 0.9 with the melee conversion changes

[steady star]

so it is what it is

Father Toast btw

what do you think best way to get more crit rate for spells

[faint cape]

Hm, depends on what you can use in the build. Anywhere you can get flat crit is definitely super important, such as from a catalyst, rune dagger, or spriggan companion

oh yeah, and skill spec is often a source for that as well

[steady star]

Its alot easier to get flat for melee

Spells are a bit meh its mostly %

on flat

Relic

Thank you

[faint cape]

Yeah, definitely is. Also the prismatic gaze helmet gives global flat crit, so that's another thing that's a little easier to fit in than dagger/cat

[steady star]

its cause am using a spear as mage weapon

am locked into melee only

[faint cape]

aha, going for void volcanic orb?

[steady star]

Ye

The build is working fine

[faint cape]

that's rough, since VO doesn't have any crit nodes in its spec either

[steady star]

Trying so hard to find any god damn flat %

[faint cape]

I thought about trying those weird void gloves with it, but ended up sticking with a fragment of the enigma build, since I started to like that one and all the void enabling items have such high level req lol

[steady star]

Already using 4 uniques would suffer so much if i forced in another

Anquish could go tho its mostly untill HP reg is sorted

but the pen on doom is nice

You're talking abot the sacrifical embrace gloves ye?

[faint cape]

Yeah, they are kinda interesting

[steady star]

Could proc it aswell got on spell to do it with

[faint cape]

so I think the main flat crit sources you can get for void VO are just prismatic gaze helmet and locket of the forgotten knight amulet

[steady star]

Actually this is kinda smart tho these gloves

Seeing how they remove the Damage multiplier

I could just crit stack with my melee stacking

and ignore the multiplier stat 100%

Mostly doing Melee for surge stacks and mana and then all damage goes into my orb

Ok we got a plan ~~

[faint cape]

Oh yeah, good point since you could get a ton of crit chance on some melee skills

[steady star]

and its a spear

so i can flat it

[faint cape]

When I was thinking about skills to proc that abyssal rite, meteor is definitely a stand-out, though it sounds like you might be a spellblade

[steady star]

Ye

you kinda have to and mana isn't really an issue here aswell

Could get 40% crit rate

Flame ward got a cooldown anyhow so 10 stacks on 40% should be fine

10 stacks per 17 sec is absulutly doable

might even be over kill

Won't have doom but who cares if i can replace the 25% void pen with 100% void pen without dooms base 400 dmg and DoT damage

[proper idol]

A little confused about the “tooltips”
Flurry says it has a dps of 1k+, but I’m not hitting very hard with it, while Umbral Blades has like 800 dps but I’ve seen 1-2k damage numbers on crits
Is there a way to make melee Flurry better? I really like the skill (especially will the shockwaves thing)

[quasi trail]

i've just bought the game and tried to run it under Linux, NixOS - but I get black screen after pressing "play online" or "play offline" and nothing more happens - anyone encountered something similar?

[steady star]

The reason why you're doing less then 1k is do to physical resistance on mobs,
it scaled from Physical melee and dex mostly and then physical pen is important.
Same goes for the Force wave its also the same scaling

Get a higher base value for physical melee and get pen and shred armor then add physical % multiplier to melee and you should be good, the base is only 5 physical + weapon melee so its quite low

Also if i remember correctly rogue got a unique idol afflix for flurry with boosts crit rate by a f tone on just that ability

[proper idol]

Ah yeah I just had that idol drop

Sadly second affix was minion damage or something worthless for me

[steady star]

It will sort out with time

not sure how far into the game you are but

Just truck along and more options will open up for you

[proper idol]

Also
Kinda confused on how shadows work for rogue in this game, a bunch of skills mention shadows but I’m not really sure how to make them? Only skill I have atm that makes a shadow is Shift

Is that something to worry more about post-campaign?

[steady star]

Shadows copy some spells and you can make them with Shift smoke bomb but mostly from Sychronized strike on shadowblade

https://www.lastepochtools.com/skills/create_shadow/sources

here you got a list of all places you can spawn one

The shadows can for example use Umbral Blades and leave a spinning blade on the spot quite a common build

Usually you have to spec into what u want them to copy tho

[acoustic thicket]

what is the strongest necromancer build ?

[steady star]

Fire minions or bone golem build prob

[subtle wave]

hello, i just started the game for the first time, but "shift" does not "hold position", i dont see a option for it in the keybindings, should it normally work with shift?

[steady star]

you don't wanna be able to move with left click while holding in shift?

[subtle wave]

yes

[steady star]

Same here brother

not in the game as much as i know

[subtle wave]

what i cant hold position?

[steady star]

Have to release mouse one or rebind move to scroll wheel down

[faint cape]

I think once they fix the bug causing LMB to not be bindable to a skill, it'll kinda let you do that

but you'll then have to have LMB as move/attack 😔

[steady star]

Scrolling down to move is the best

[subtle wave]

well, to be honest that su***

[steady star]

Removes alot of melee skips and errors

[acoustic thicket]

is that the one with pyromancers , fire wrath and the fire bone golem ?

[subtle wave]

well i can still refund, have just started the game, i will keep an eye out for future updates, thanks for the help

[steady star]

you get used to it its beta aswell

[steady star]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/EAL2arEB
https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/KQb6kmLQ

Played both of these and they are solid

The Will chest piece is a grind and a half tho

[proper idol]

This is probably a question I already know the answer to, but if really good uniques drop in the campaign (Snowdrift, Taste of Blood, and Fighting Chance/Riverbend Grasp have been HARD carrying me from 12-35), will I need to farm them post-campaign?

[steady star]

Yes, Legendary potation does so u can add extra stats on them so usually low level items don't come with stacks of lego potencial

[proper idol]

Gotcha

[steady star]

Some items even got a higher level counter part

[acoustic thicket]

thanks

is necromancer good at clearing ?

[steady star]

As with any minion based build it is fine but they are always one step behind ya

Out side of that its good

not the speediest boies tho u teleport with mage and then base movement and such

[acoustic thicket]

If i make my own necromancer build will i still be able to clear everything in the game ?

[steady star]

As long as u have the minion buff spell

you will be fine

Half of the fun is making your own shit work 😄

[acoustic thicket]

what is that

[steady star]

Shade of something its the 3rd ability on necro

it buffs minions within the area of the buff

[acoustic thicket]

Dread shade ?

[steady star]

That

you can make it single target or group area

Single is more damage but you have to apply it more

[severe scaffold]

anyone else having problems with the loot filter UI?

[steady star]

Funny you said that, my loot filter won't allow me to pickup this set piece

[severe scaffold]

it's not about the pickup; when i edited my filter earlier, everyhtign vanished; after that, each time i try to setup a new one, the UI breaks

[steady star]

sad noices

[steady star]

Sounds like you might have a corrupted file, reboot and repair files

[acoustic thicket]

Do you think i can make a build with 1 very strong skeletal arch mage ?

[steady star]

100%

Frost mage got a nice cone ability

[acoustic thicket]

thats what i was gonna do

[steady star]

One of the perk with mage is that u can tp with them and always bring him with ya

[acoustic thicket]

How can i level up fast

[steady star]

Just story and speed run keep that teleport on cooldown and spam click ~~

I usually boost my characters to 25 in arena with mate and skip story but its a bit messy

And always apply movement speed on boots in forge

Got to zoom

Forging your armor is probebly the fastest way to improve time

[acoustic thicket]

what is forging ?

[steady star]

(F) ingame

you add and remove affixes with forging potencial

[acoustic thicket]

I dont understand that system i have never used that before

[steady star]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZF-VlZynzQM Videos are a nice way to get a over view

think this was linked eariler in here

Think he explains the scrapping part and how to aquire afflixes

[acoustic thicket]

Thanks

Do wraiths have a frost node ?

[steady star]

Hopefully that helps a bit, i skipped alot of the crafting at start and it slowed me down 😄

[steady star]

Sadly not

[acoustic thicket]

Should i use them i am gonna be using that 1 skeletal frost mage

i am gonna build something around that

[steady star]

Well you can try but it can be a bit tricky to get the buff on the correct mob if they swarm ^^ unless you do Mage spawn > buff > Wraiths

wraiths is a large mana spender

[acoustic thicket]

i am using that twin spirt thing

[steady star]

Well give it a go

worst case u adapt and change

[acoustic thicket]

What skills should i be using excpet dread shade for that build

[steady star]

Look around in (S) and check what works well together but you can never go wrong with volatile zombies to support damage and armor shred

u could even fitt in transplant and leave more points for your mage to get damage

Best part about volatile zombie is that they scale with minion ^^

[acoustic thicket]

Should i use bone golem ?

[steady star]

you do u, then you turn into a mass minion build again if u plan on using wraths and mage and bone

[cyan lava]

Is there a place to save and share builds? I can look up, but not store simple builds here https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/

[acoustic thicket]

actually i wont use bone golem i dont like them that much

What does volatile zombie do ?

[steady star]

They run into the mob and explode / vomit on them (perk)

They can be either fire or necro

[fluid eagle]

Dammitt (dev of the website) mentioned that since APIs aren't public you can't import online builds yet, only offline ones
When EG make it public he'll probably update it

[acoustic thicket]

I should use necro right ? since i am using frost build

actually ill use the frost version of the bone golem

[steady star]

Remember that these are minion scaling so the minions damage doesn't matter much outside of (minion Element damage %) in talents and such

[acoustic thicket]

what does that mean

[steady star]

Check necromansers Cursed blood perk on the 2 row it adds both your damage and minion damage on a selected element

for example

[cyan lava]

Ah thx for the information.
I also just understood how to save builds by saving the URL link. I was looking for a "save" Button. And when I clicked on "view my build" all my work was gone 🥹
(but ok, I'm not a smart user)

[steady star]

you can scale with minion and int but if u check the lower part you can see for example this mage is fire and spell so any perk that adds minion fire damage boosts his damage on top of your minion scaling

[acoustic thicket]

Should i try to get ward

[fluid eagle]

Takes a bit to get used to but I've used his tools since the early grim dawn times and they're great, especially the item database

[acoustic thicket]

oh i understand now

[vague badge]

whats the cost for respeccing mastery points?

[steady star]

Gold

[faint cape]

@tulip gate FYI if you're looking for mana leech style mechanics, the primalist transforms replace your mana with rage, which opens you up for rage on hit/kill/etc. Probably the closest we'll get to actual mana leech for a long time.

Won't work for warpath, obviously, but does work for the meteor belt

[vague badge]

is power leveling alts a thing? would be nice if me and my friends can carry our alts 😄

[faint cape]

Yep, and a recent new feature to the site is, if you make an account, it'll essentially save the URLs for you in that "my builds" page. Very handy

[faint cape]

Certainly, to an extent. If you're level 1 in a level 100 area, you'll gain xp as if you were in a level 11 area. I think that this is gimped a bit when you have a high level player in the area with you, but it doesn't matter much.

You still need to get all your idol slots and passives from the campaign

but obviously your friends can speed that up a lot, instantly get you your mastery and carry you through monoliths, etc.

[frail inlet]

for a cold dot sorc would you use static orb or glacier as your primary damage

[tardy kettle]

The weapon
(death's Embrace) does Harrowing Claim deal 200% more melee damage as in (physical) or 200% of all melee damaged types as in necrotic, fire, and more?

[sick yacht]

Ice barrage for bosses. Static orb for trash

[ocean shuttle]

shadows inherit the player's stats, right?

like basically the way totems function in POE

[faint cape]

Yeah, shadows scale with your damage stuff, plus any shadow damage modifiers you have

[ocean shuttle]

ok thanks, I figured it'd make sense if they snapshot the player similar to traps and totems from POE but I wasn't sure

[clever jay]

does anyone know of a support build? i mostly play with friends, so i was thinking of making a support char. like a buff/debuff type build.

[vague badge]

do you need keys in your inventory for dungeons or can they be in your stash?

[steady star]

inv

[stone granite]

Not really anything but Paladin is probably best as they have an aura and heals.

[tulip gate]

thank you, it does make sense as I heard there is a meteor bear build

[sturdy basin]

Been trying to target prism wraps blood/frost/death timeline. I know LP versions are rare, but I have yet to see even single non LP version. Is it just that rare even though says common drop rate? I'm on about 150 corruption on empowered timeline. Probably wise for me to just move on, but I really want them for my static orb build LOL.

[vernal seal]

Hard to even care about LP when T4 Julra is such a POS

[pastel pebble]

Sentinel has some mana regen stuff and mana on hit

Very little

[stray mauve]

why do some builds completely neglect poison res?

[stone granite]

If they have no source of defense for poison then they are just bad builds

[twin crest]

Are spells and skills the same thing?

[quiet sandal]

Pretty sure skills is an umbrella term for any of your abilities on your skillbar

So skills would include spells

But would also work for melee attacks for example

[twin crest]

I am confusion

[quiet sandal]

Skills is a general term, that refers to spells and melee. So if something says "adds cold damage to cold skills" it would add cold spell damage to a spell or cold melee damage to a melee attack

Does that help?

@sonic ridge this is a question that doesn't need the devs answer. Tornado is a damage over time spell, as it has the "Damage over time" tag. Damage over time skills do not hit and as such cannot apply ailments.

[sonic ridge]

Gotcha thanks

[quiet sandal]

You could make tornado apply ailemnts via the hits from the lightning procs in the skill tree though

[sonic ridge]

Just messing around with ruby fang set on primalist using frie earthquake and tornado but was hoping tornado would add more poison stacks

[faint cape]

The lightning and orb procs from tornadoes do hit, though, so those will apply poisons

[vapid steeple]

1. Does the rogue passive node (+HP/mana on hit) still provides health if I have a no leech modifier on my gear? If so, is there a way to not get the health with another mod/node somewhere?

[faint cape]

Health on hit is not leech, there's no mechanic that disables it (yet?)

[flint moon]

What do the three bars in the red area mean? Seems to be skill-independent but appears to built up when swapping skills

[sterile widget]

i thought that was ping

if u hover it it shows ur ping ?

[flint moon]

Thanks, it does. Weird position for it, so close to skills and vitals like mana and life

[quiet sandal]

I agree that's good #368968647114227723

[shadow raven]

Hey all, 3 weeks in on LE, so far I played SD rogue to 450 corr, and a squirrel bm to 300 ish, but the squirrel build is too slow when coming from SD. Any good advice on what I should try next? Was maybe thinking the Death Seal lich, looks like its a fast Moving build with good dmg.

[quiet sandal]

Lightning Bug druid is fast and fun and can probably push to similarly high corruption levels. Super tanky too

[shadow raven]

Ah cool, thanks. You think Lich will be too slow or?

[quiet sandal]

Idk man I only play primalist haha

And I don't like minion builds, and shaman is kinda bad atm, so basically I only play druid

You can get 200% movespeed with lightning Bug if you want. It's super speedy

[faint cape]

Shaman is really good, just doesn't have much build variety unfortunately

[quiet sandal]

Yea sorry I guess I should say, the builds I want to play with shaman aren't very good right now.

[flint moon]

Thanks for mentioning, posted here: #368968647114227723 message

[flint moon]

Haven't been around for some time, I assume that the preferred communication channel is still the official forum?

[quiet sandal]

Well devs are pretty active on the discord too but yea I imagine the forums are probably the best for long form feedback.

[quiet vault]

This is confusing to me - why does it say "shard"

Is this blessing not just the rate to drop belts? What does that mean if not

[faint cape]

@steady star Ah, I see what you mean - that's why I was thinking meteor for its huge damage per cast, non-fire damage multiplier, and 900% damage effectiveness

[quiet sandal]

It's for shard drops that can roll on belts. CDR, mana Regen, ailment cleanse on potion use, etc

[faint cape]

It means any shard (the crafting material) that can be crafted onto belts

[quiet vault]

Ahh ok that makes sense. Cool

My belt sucks so looks like it's the blessing I want anyway

Thanks lol

[faint cape]

Yeah, and it's not a bad option either, several good rare-ish affixes on belts like hybrid life, CDR, cleanse on potion use, etc.

[steady star]

Typed in the wrong chat haha, it would ye but am already starved for ability slots haha

and not a sorc ~~

[faint cape]

Yeah, not being a sorc really hurts that option lol - glacier isn't a bad alternative if you want to try it, but you might be better off just sticking to crit

[quiet vault]

Filter question - does the "2" affix requirement mean BOTH must be T6 in this case?

I know it's a very picky filter, trying to understand.

[quiet sandal]

The 2 means it has to have 2 of the 8. The tier of individual more or equal to 6 enforces that each affix must be at least 6

[quiet vault]

So 2 of the 8, each requiring minimum T6.

Damn

That's not what I wanted

Thanks

[quiet sandal]

What do you want?

[quiet vault]

I wanted to highlight an exalted item with at least 2 of the affixes I want

Just typing that out I think I know how I can accomplish it

But I'm not totally sure

[quiet sandal]

Well, you could just add a quality filter for exalted then have the 2 of 8 but remove the tier requiements

[quiet vault]

This doesn't quite give me what I want necessarily, though, because it could be exalted for any number of unwanted affixes

I know I can just look and skip items. I'm nit picking

[quiet sandal]

But that won't ensure that one of the 8 is the exalted affix

[quiet vault]

Right

This new one is probably fine

I still have a catch all to see all exalted anyway. This recolors

I just want a visual queue to be excited about lol

[quiet sandal]

Yea i think that's more restrictive than necessary tho. That will only recolor if their t5 or higher. Personally id want to see it even if it had low tiers of affixes I want cause you can always increase those

But if it does what you want then that's good I'm happy to help

[quiet vault]

You're right, good point

That does seem good

Have to edit like 10 rules now for each item slot lol

[quiet sandal]

Yea cause I also realized the total tier greater than 15 could potentially hide items you would have wanted too. If one of the affixes you wanted was t6, and the other was t5, it wouldn't show unless there was another random affix of t4 or more, or 2 others with t2 or more

I think that last one you sent is perfect

[quiet vault]

Yeah I like it after looking at it again

phew lol

[quiet sandal]

Pretty colors!

yay shiny

you weren't wrong at all though

i like neeeeever was seeing anything red drop

glad i checked closer on it

[quiet sandal]

Yea loot filters can be scary but I guess you never would have hidden them cause of the show exalts below but yea nice to see the Reds when they drop

Good to see someone else filtering for t7 exalts too. Sometimes t7 makes anything good lol

[quiet vault]

Yea lol it's also just fun to see

speaking of

[quiet sandal]

Ayo, gzgz

anyone else experiencing lost connections currently?

Do the Empowered Monolith exclusive rewards also apply to the exalts or only unique? I'm trying to farm a better wand and catalyst for my Sorcerer

[sleek harness]

Hi all!
New to the endgame, if i want to farm Fulgurite shard legendary, do i have higher chance of acquiring if i do empowered monoliths?

[quiet sandal]

Yes. Higher corruption is always better for finding items

[quiet sandal]

No the specific item type rewards for each timeline are just for unique or set versions. If you want exalted wands and catalysts, just watch out for those nodes in monos and check dungeon daily bonuses for drops. Some days they will drop "substantially more exalted weapons" and would be worth full clearing dungeons those days

[restive wasp]

Thanks. I haven't attempted Dungeons yet... Just started Empowered Monoliths last night. I'm having trouble finding upgrades for any of my gear and it's getting a little frustrating

[spark spruce]

At what corruption do T7 mods start dropping consistently if any? I'm on around 300 and its still rare

[quiet sandal]

Dungeons have different tiers and can be started around the same time as emp monos imo. Rng do be like that sometimes

[quiet sandal]

Pretty sure t7 exalts only require a lvl 90 zone minimum and then higher drop rates would simply further increase the drop rate. T7 is rare though

[faint cape]

I would suggest doing another look at your filter, it might be too strict

[sleek harness]

Can i trust ingame tooltip about my upgrades? If i see higher dps is it an upgrade? Or is there somewhere else where i can check it

[faint cape]

Only if you are really careful. In general, no, comparing the stats themselves is more reliable

[restive wasp]

I'm using the Maxroll filter for my build. I've disabled a few of the conditions labelled as 'strict' so hopefully that makes a difference

[faint cape]

Gotcha, I have no experience with those - hopefully disabling the strict bits helps, then!

[spark spruce]

Gotcha, thanks

[river kernel]

wait....do blessings deteriorate over time?

[spark drum]

No

Those rings show how good the roll is

[river kernel]

ahhh ty

[spark drum]

NP

[quiet sandal]

Imagine if they did though.. 🤮 would suck to have a perfect roll just deteriorate
