[steady star]

if you don't wanna blend it

otherwise you can just add it to the same rule but then you could get mix afflixes between the two prefrences

[west vapor]

IF the affix is increased physical damage does that exclude my minion physical damage or does minion physical damage just exclude mine?

[sick yacht]

Both exclude each other. Minions only benefit from minion stats and you do not benefit from minion stats

Barring some external interaction, I feel like probably exists, but can't think of at the moment

[formal jungle]

With going for Legendaries. If you have a Unique with, let's say, 2LP and the Exalted has 1 Exalted Stat and 3 Non-Exalted Stats how does that work? Is it guaranteed to take the 1 Exalted Stat and then completely random on the 2nd stat it takes?

[sick yacht]

All stats transferred are completely random

[formal jungle]

So not even the Exalted Stat is guaranteed when going from Exalted > Legendary?

[sick yacht]

Right, all stats.

[formal jungle]

So exalted stat is only useful if you're going to use it as Exalted, not as Legendary. Got it

[sick yacht]

False, you can still hit it and make a great leggo

[formal jungle]

Wait do the stats that it hits transfer at the level they're at?

I assumed they'd all level up to 6/7 when pushed onto the legendary

[sick yacht]

They transfer at the exact number they currently are on the exalted item.

[acoustic thicket]

What does more dmg lich or necromancer ?

[west vapor]

so level the exalted items stats before you use it to make the legendary?

[sick yacht]

Lich

Yes

Ideally you want 4 useful stats for your build on the item, so you aren't sad about whatever it gets

[acoustic thicket]

whats the playstyle of lich?

[sick yacht]

There are a lot. I recommend YouTube

[west vapor]

i havnt played lich but i have been told that while the lich has more damage potential if it crits but the necromancer golem build i use crits 100% of the time naturally i feel like that has to factor into the question of which one does more damage.

[sick yacht]

There are many different builds for both, it's just easier to scale damage on a lich for the most part. The golem "reflect" build and flame wraiths are outliers for necro damage.

[acoustic thicket]

is the necromancer golem build stronger or the fire build with the pyromancer and flame wraiths ?

[west vapor]

i have not played the fire build so i cannot really say

[acoustic thicket]

Is the Golem build good for clear ?

[west vapor]

most definately

[faint cape]

Golem build should be good for clear, since it fires a nova of piercing projectiles

Abomination is also still a strong damage build

[west vapor]

i am not even slightly optimized and i walk through 100s rather quickly and in combat i typically maintain about 4-6k of ward

[sick yacht]

Ngl I spaced abom when I was talking about high damage necro. The resummon time makes me forget 😅

[faint cape]

Repressed memories 😂

[sick yacht]

For sure, but damage is nutty

[acoustic thicket]

is the one on the maxroll website good ?

[west vapor]

that is what im playing

i stuck to the build so far except for item availability issues

the heart relic is a huge survivability item and get it asap

[formal jungle]

Can anyone recommend some builds they have fun with? I’ve seen a ton on YouTube. Aside from those or even including those. What builds do people enjoy? The only builds I’ve tried so far is Marrow Shards Lich and Multishot Marksman.

[stable briar]

is a Multistrike build as your main attack possible? trying to make something as close to a Diablo II Zealadin as possible 😄

seems to have pretty big strength scaling

[pastel pebble]

I am running a multistrike smite build

[formal jungle]

Who is multi strike for? Isn’t there something similar for uh.. Bladedancer rogue?

[pastel pebble]

Sentinel

[stable briar]

Sentinel has it

yeh

it looks like fun

[pastel pebble]

I'm doing a Paladin Multistrike w/ Aurelias

[stable briar]

awesome!

so it can be done 😄

[formal jungle]

Maybe it was Voidknight then lol

But I’ve heard most things can work

Just depends on how far you can get with it

[stable briar]

i got the game yesterday, enjoying it a lot but I didn't want to waste time on something that might be kinda useless

😄

[formal jungle]

Just go Squirrel Beastmaster build :)

All the Squirrels applying all the Bleed Procs is haha funny

[stable briar]

LOL

i plan to experiment a lot so i'll get there

sounds hilarious

[formal jungle]

I’m new as well. Beat the story and gone into a little bit of monos on a Lich and Marksman so far. I think some sort of Paladin is going to be my next build

[latent canyon]

What's the skill lvl breakpoint for 2 bone golems?

[faint cape]

However much it takes to get the twinned golems node.... like 5?

[latent canyon]

Oh there is a twin golem node?

Mb

[lucid echo]

What kind of stats should I look for as a Minionmancer TM? I've been looking for stuff with minion damage and health on the same item but those seem really rare. So any thoughts on what I should prioritize?
My skills are Summon Skeleton, Summon Death Knight, Summon Wraith, Summon Golem, Transplant.

[blazing stirrup]

ANYONE ELSE get the game to crash because their attack speed is way to fast? freezes for 3 minutes every time i try a boss

[sturdy root]

Is the skill tree for Spirit Plague bugged? I can't add any points in to Rotten to the Core:

Also, the 0/5 is backwards which is super weird.

[candid elm]

Entirely possibly it's a new bug from the 0.9i patch. Post it in the bug forums

!bug

[ripe brook]

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

[jade hemlock]

Hello everyone, Im caught in a dilemma and dont know which class to play for empowered monos.
So far I got:

• bowmage
• shadow dagger bladedancer
• lightning swipe werebear druid
• shattering strike spellblade
• fire minion necro, on the way to a fire wraith necro, still missing the staff and one idol, but otherwise its fine
• a lvl 26 sorc
• debating wether I should get a void knight (lvl 20 atm)

I feel like bowmage is too much work for no return, it struggles in empowered monos, its some niche build that doesnt scale well. the bladedancer is way too hectic, most of the time im missing item drops because its hit and run, not very fun imho. the druid is solid, but very slow going from pack to pack. cold dot werebear seems boring and still slow. the spellblade works nicely, i started with frostbite but finally got a little int and mana gear and switched to the lost knowledge version. not sure if that will be nerfed. the sorcs have some nice builds, but most of them are very much dependant on procs. i like the meteor build, but 9% to get one seems not good enough. maybe some other fancy build is available. the necro seems very high maintenance casting wraith preemtively so that i dont die. the single skeleton mage build seems boring too (the FRED build).

I saw a hybrid flame wreath build that shoots out flame arcs from the sword which looked nice, but it seems to be simply worse to a LK shattering strike.

can someone recomment me something fun that has clear speed and boss kill speed? i feel like most builds i find ALWAYS come with a negative connotation. its like the balance in this game always makes it so that one single thing will stop a build from actually shining. whenever ppl ask here for a build someone will always chime in with a couple of "buts".

Im mainly looking for something that is flashy, quick, doesnt rely on dots or summons. i think ill completely pass on rogue, seems to be boring to me. as for druid only the lightning swipe looked fun, the swarmblade i played to level is not my style. im severly limited it seems. i guess i will end up with some sorc/spellblade or maybe a void knight? but i havent found one vk build that looks fun and doesnt require buffing up every third mob pack :/

[formal jungle]

I mean every class will have to do empowered monos if you want your empowered mono buffs.

As far as what class to play it only matters what you find as fun, personally there’s quite a few fun Sorc builds, there’s the fireball sorc, the glacial spike sorc, there’s a few lightning specs although those don’t look as fun to me.

I’m currently looking into some sort of Paladin build, maybe Smite or Hammer I’m not sure yet but that’s what’s looking fun for me right now

[drifting inlet]

guys, is it possible to achieve 100k dps at level 38? any build
talking about dummy dps and then real combat dps here

[steady star]

Is Surge bugged by any chance on Static?
Doesn't seem to add 3 charge per crit or its a cooldown to it even tho its not told

[faint cape]

I'm not aware of a 3 charges per crit effect on Surge, there is the (up to) 3 on hit and 30 on use things, and Static has its own things for hit/crit that do have limitations

[deft orchid]

is there currently a button to compare an item to our secondary slot?

Second ring/offhand weapon?

[mellow abyss]

any news on the channelling skills bug fix?

[faint cape]

No, gotta swap the items

[deft orchid]

got a bug that I'm waiting on feedback on

NGL, the forums don't feel like a great place to report them, imo

[formal jungle]

For Legendary Crafting does the Unique and Exalted items both have to be the same item type I assume? Probably makes the most sense cuz you wouldn’t be able to craft certain affixes on to other items. Like movement speed on a sword or something xd

[faint cape]

Must be same item type, like "2h axe"

[formal jungle]

Yeah okay makes sense just wanted to confirm!

[candid elm]

Yeah you don't need to get the exact same base type, just the same general item type. Like you don't have to get an Exalted Obsidian Axe to combine with the Apathy's Maw unique Obsidian Axe. Just any Exalted Two-handed Axe will work there.

Boots to Boots, Helmet to Helmet, etc.

[hollow frigate]

Can gloves roll armor shred on hit?

[sick basalt]

what did they add this patch?

[red inlet]

I believe rn they are just making sure everrything is stable first

[sick basalt]

how many areas have unique per echo i can choose

[candid elm]

Yes. Chance to Shred Armour on Hit can go on Gloves.

[candid elm]

https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/beta-0-9i-patch-notes/57471

[hollow frigate]

@candid elm Thanks. Was thinking i'll combine those and the julra gloves for my squirrelmancer

[candid elm]

Yeah that would be a good choice

[nocturne rose]

not sure what i'm doing wrong. i'm level 80, using the static orb build in maxroll. this week finally unlocked empowered monos. tried 2 echoes and just get melted. i know they ask you if you want to do the "legend" version and it says level 100. do i have to be close to that? i thought most people race to unlock empowered monos to start doing them. but i can't even complete them. up until these, the game was quite easy

[candid elm]

If you got a T6 it would have 125-150% and a T7 would have 151-200%

[round turtle]

heyo, has anyone notice this?

item text is not showing

[hollow frigate]

@round turtle I've had that issue sometimes with certain loot filters

[candid elm]

I'm not sure what you're asking. Each timeline has different special unique/set echo reward nodes that you can find. They are more common in the Empowered/Legendary timelines, where you can find multiple. Like I've had 4 right next to each other before.

[round turtle]

oh yeah, it has been reported since 0.8.2 build, apparently it is not a very critical bug to be fixed on the list

Known issue with the emphasise option in the loot filter.

[candid elm]

Yeah, you can go straight into them if your build can handle it. But if you wanted to do the regular a bit more, you can still select that. They have separate echo webs with separate progress. Both are stored if you wanted to switch.

[nocturne rose]

seems like a catch22. i can't do the empowered because i don't have good enough gear, but the good gear is in empowered. it's also very likely i'm not playing correctly

[sick basalt]

how do i get empowered/legendary timelines

[candid elm]

Do the 3x 90 monoliths then go back to the area before them, where the path branched into three, and interact with the thing in the middle

[atomic grove]

can a sealed affix on a exalted weapon transfer to a unique when making a legendary?

[azure basin]

are there problems with the servers right now?

[candid elm]

No, the sealed affix is ignored

[atomic grove]

ah okey cool

[candid elm]

It only looks at the regular affixes and you must have 4 of them, and at least one of them Exalted T6-7, to use the item in Legendary Crafting

[raw fern]

restart steam, should help. If not #support

[lyric vigil]

just tried to log and got thee same

[atomic grove]

i see and it can be any of the prefixes and suffixes right?

[candid elm]

Yes. They will randomly be taken from the Exalted item based on the Legendary Potential number. Like 2 LP is two are randomly selected and transferred.

Oh and you have to use the same general item type. Like Boots to Boots. Helmet to Helmet.

[abstract fiber]

yeah had same issue restarted steam and had sync problems with the steam library with lost memory so just gonna give it some time n should sort itself out

[zinc anchor]

4 unsealed affixes required, sealed is ignored

[fickle sparrow]

whats the deal with the epoch tools items that say Cant Drop such as fire lich scythe and solarum greatsword?

[zinc anchor]

Some items are rune of ascendance only....not sure about those specifically

Does anybody know if you can disable the message saying affix shards transfered to forge? It's super annoying

[vernal seal]

Is Exanguinous good for any builds? Without LP?

[fickle sparrow]

ye

plenty

as long as you have decent ward retention and max hp

if you get those two stats up and use last steps of the living

its insane

at least below 200 corruption

can probably push it to 300 if you have a highenough dps setup

[faint cape]

That means it's a "unique only" item subtype; in your filter, this is the section they fall under. Fire lich scythe is exclusively the T4 Soulfire Bastion boss unique, for example.

[faint cape]

Yup, in addition to what Addiso said, you'll want to take advantage of any "while on low life" effects you can find. Some have super strong effects in their passive trees, like Primalist and Bladedancer

though those classes obviously have a harder time surviving on exsang

[foggy totem]

Hope this is not too stupid of a question but if I get an item with one suffix/affix I don't need it all, otherwise a perfect item, e.g. as in picture, what are my options? Rune of removal and gamble? Or...?

[candid elm]

Yes. Or if it's a T1-4 affix, use a Glyph of Chaos on the one you don't want. That upgrades to next Tier and changes it to a different affix

You can use Glyph of Hope with Rune of Removal, but not with Glyph of Chaos of course

[foggy totem]

Never used chaos before, could you help me a bit more please

Thanks

Fine, item in, chaos in, but requires further input

[candid elm]

It upgrades the affix to the next tier and changes it to a random affix

[faint cape]

Select the affix you want to be changed and click upgrade & reroll (or whatever the button changes to)

[candid elm]

Select the affix. Set Glyph to Chaos. Upgrade.

It will upgrade and reroll that affix

[fickle sparrow]

@faint cape

[candid elm]

But it requires an upgrade, so you can't use it on T5

[fickle sparrow]

not the set one

[candid elm]

If it's T5+, the only option is Removal

Or you can try Removal first. Up to you.

[foggy totem]

Doesn't allow me to select affix

[faint cape]

Not sure what you mean (it's a unique, not a set)

[candid elm]

It does an upgrade. You do not have any of the prefix shards on the left to do an upgrade.

[candid elm]

And the suffix on the right are already fully upgraded

[faint cape]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/items/UAwRgzATArAnEA

[fickle sparrow]

yeah but the one i posted wasnt the unique one

[candid elm]

Which affix did you want to remove / change?

[fickle sparrow]

and this

[foggy totem]

I understood you, anyways I wanna get rid of the shield throw

[candid elm]

Ok so your options are:

1. get a shield throw affix shard to be able to do an upgrade with Chaos. That would reroll it into a T2 of a random prefix. If that new prefix was one you had shards for, you could keep doing Chaos until it hits T5.

2. Use Removal. 1 in 4 chance it will hit the one you want.

Both options take Forging Potential, but you can possibly negate the Removal with a Glyph of Hope.

[foggy totem]

Understood, thank you

[candid elm]

If you'd be ok with this having a different random prefix, which would most likely be one of the more common ones like Vitality or Strength, then I'd probably start with that.

If you need a specific prefix, I'd just use Removal and then throw the item out if it removed the wrong affix.

[stable tulip]

Hello guys, I wanna make a loot filter for specific exalted items and I don't manage to do it. I don't even think it is possible. What I want to make is the following, lets say I'm looking for a 2 types of bow, and 6 types of affixes. I want my bow to contain 2 affixes from the pool of 6 and one of them should be exalted (+T6). Only way I figure out to do this was to select advance and set the total tier greater then 9. Problem is I can get an exalted item, that the affix is +T6 but is not from the pool of 6 that I want, and get 2 x T5 affixes from the pool of 6 and the loot filter will flag that item. Do you guys have any idea?

[faint cape]

Yeah, but that's what "Can't drop" means. Can't obtain it, only exists as a unique item type

[candid elm]

It's pretty rare for Chaos to pick a different +skill affix. Or any of the rare affixes, being rares, but it can happen.

[mighty jackal]

What is the fast way to get to the end game? Follow the main quests? Im actually lv 62 and seem to me that I can earn more experience from monoliths

[candid elm]

I go into monoliths once I've got 15/15 passives and 8/8 idols. Which you'll hit in Chapter 7 once you get the Lance. Around level 40 usually for me.

[faint cape]

Fastest way is to only do campaign until you have all your passive points and idol slots, then rush monoliths to empowered

[pastel pebble]

I rush monolitys then stop partway through to speedrun campaigj

[mighty jackal]

That is nice, thank you both

[foggy totem]

What is "to empowered"

[candid elm]

You can go back later and kill Majasa for the +1 to all Attributes, if you want to

[faint cape]

This is level 100 monoliths

[candid elm]

After doing the 3x 90 monoliths you unlock area level 100 versions of the monoliths with base 100 Corruption

[faint cape]

and yeah, I do eventually go back to kill Majasa for that attribute thing. You can skip chapter 8 entirely by running temporal sanctum, speeds up that last bit

[candid elm]

Yeah it will spit you out in Act 9. Still takes a bit to get to the boss though

[faint cape]

alternatively, there may be some way to skip some of act 9 too using multiplayer; not sure how you would get that to work, though

[round turtle]

anyone still experience low fps suddenly when enter arena echo?

[restive mortar]

is there a good first choice, or are these ones whatever ?

[round turtle]

u can look up their blessing here https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/timelines
find the one that best fit you

some build require extra resistance from Blessing, some don't

best you can get is resistance i think, but item drop rate is better for farming specific item

[restive mortar]

these ones are gold, and two idol drops %. i`ll check this guide though, thank you

[faint cape]

Some of those zones still need optimization work. Try moving around the map to find the areas in it that perform better on your machine and stick to those areas

[round turtle]

im just lucky im playing totem builds, stood in corner and just summon totem

it is pretty bad tho

[faint cape]

F11 to see FPS, you'll probably see it go up or down on average depending on where you stand

[vagrant lintel]

hey guys, i lost all my equipped gear except for weapon and accesories after i did a node. Is this a bug?

[atomic grove]

whats the arena good for?

[candid elm]

Yeah it's a visual bug. Just zone to a new area and it should be back.

[vagrant lintel]

oh wow okay.. I panicked and logged out the game ty

[surreal pagoda]

can i fix cropped ui smh?

[faint cape]

Pretty sure they are hiring for this, so yeah possibly

[blissful zenith]

Are alts easy to level, or do you have to do the whole campaign again?

[quiet sandal]

You have to do the campaign to unlock passives and idol slots yes. However leveling is faster the second time cause you will have shards to help keep your gear crafted to maximize damage and movement speed

[blissful zenith]

got it thanks

[haughty pawn]

Newbie question: I'm using a loot filter from maxroll for my first character, and I looked through all the rules in it to get an understanding of which affixes are valuable, but I'm not sure what the intent is of showing, say, a blue item with just fire resist on it. Should I be saving everything with at least 1 good affix for later shattering? Or should I just save really high value stuff like hybrid health/+skill level for shattering and the rest is shown just in case I need to wear it while leveling?

[zinc anchor]

You should save everything with 1 RARE affix for later shattering. Fire resist isn't RARE

As you said, hybrid health and +skill level is about it I guess

[haughty pawn]

Alright, so the rest is good to just leave on the ground if I don't need whatever affix it's showing because of?

[zinc anchor]

I wouldn't really worry about blues while levelling after a certain point, that said, some builds don't care about all their weapon stats so blue weapons can be viable

[formal jungle]

I mean if you're early on in a character that 1 good affix + using Rune Of Discovery could wield decent gear. Maybe that was the goal with showing 1 decent affix items?

[zinc anchor]

Yeah, if you don't need the affix and you don't plan to craft on it, just leave it. Stuff generally isn't worth selling

unique and set items sell for more if you want to pick them up to sell but that's up to you

[formal jungle]

bUt My 60 GoLd

24 Gold* Sorry

60 would be wild xd

[zinc anchor]

yeah I guess popping on a rune of discovery if you just really need that one stat would be fine. I just don't craft until I'm far enough to care about everything

[haughty pawn]

Thanks! Time to clear out my stash of all these blues with 1 resist on them then...

[blissful zenith]

How do I really know if a stat is better? Like, for example, +1 Static Orb level vs. 100% lightning damage, vs. 100% spell damage etc..

Assuming no target dummies/sheet dps?

[zinc anchor]

+1 level to a skill is usually a lot worse than something major like 100% damage, IMO. It's quite easy to check. Think to yourself, what would you put that 1 skill level into? Look at the skill and see what you would spend that 1 point on. Is it going to make THAT much of a difference? Probably not.

[runic sedge]

I mean if you already have a lot of inc damage, that one point could absolutely be worth more

[blissful zenith]

Noted.

[faint cape]

Yeah, when leveling, blues are excellent pickups because they are easy to get the affixes you need on. You can't even wear T20 items until level 70ish, so the low FP is not a big problem

Once you get to the point you need to upgrade higher, you'll want to start from a rare or exalted drop

This advice also hugely depends on having crafting materials, so mostly applicable to alts

[polar yew]

Hi guys, im new to the game. I want to skill a second point on Spirit Plague -> Rotten to the core but i cant. It is displayed mirrored. I cant even hover it

[zinc anchor]

T20 is lvl 73. But you don't need that high for blue items to be less good to craft on. Because low level items have less forging potential on average anyway, the blues still won't get very high (most of the time)

[raw fern]

Known bug: https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/spirit-plague-rotten-to-the-core-node-bugged/57551/4

[zinc anchor]

@polar yew I think some people were saying it was bugged but I don't know any more than that

[polar yew]

thank you guys!

[steady star]

Do we have a list of drop rate values for shade and rare from timeline bosses?

[candid elm]

I don't believe so. The timeline bosses have two items that are common drops which are 50/50. And then one rare and one very rare.

Shade is similar but 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

[junior wadi]

if you apply class affixes, like say fire penetration with ignite, to a LP item it makes the item restricted to the class' affix right?

[zinc anchor]

If it was a class item, then yeah

Using that item at all will bind it to that class, even if the class-specific affix doesn't transfer @junior wadi

[junior wadi]

ty!

[elder ingot]

in multiplayer how does the blessing work? i know host gets it obviously but what about other players how does that work

[vernal seal]

Hand of Judgment Pally seems awfully close to holy trail... Yes? Not too hard to swap around, aside from needing a lot of attunement on the former?

[west vapor]

is the bladedancer or whatever spec of the mage any good/fun?

[buoyant sinew]

spellblade? (blade dancer is a rogue mastery)

IMO yes, spellblade is sweet. most of his good builds are a bit weird and complicated compared to some other classes, but I've never played one that wasn't a lot of fun, and the full spark charge build is one of my favourite builds in the game

[wooden spade]

Anyone playing azmos wraith build ?

[vernal seal]

Spellblade is a ton of fun and very cool. It IS prone to getting stunlocked to death, but you can gear/play around that.

[west vapor]

@buoyant sinew have you played the bone golem betrayal build?

[rustic fulcrum]

Anyone else having issues with progression blocked from bosses being bugged since patch? Killing mono boss multiple times does not drop blessing, but does drop loot, and reverts timeline stability

[worn oracle]

i did complete reigns of dragon 5x on lvl 100, but newer got Grand Persistance of Will offered. is that normal?

or do i just have bad rng

[rustic fulcrum]

thats normal, sometimes i've had to farm a boss 10-15+ times for a specific blessing i'm after.

[zinc anchor]

lol there's only like a 44% chance you get the blessing you want, that not happening 5 times in a row isn't super rare

[faint cape]

Mouse over the stacks and read what it says, icons are not unique for each effect

[vernal seal]

Fork me, I keep blitzing through dialogue and accidentally taking the wrong path on the first monolith with alts... UUUUGGGGHHHH

Most of the ailments are in the game guide. Press G in game.

[faint cape]

then you are definitely missing something they have on the build - probably either a unique/set or your passive tree

but could be skill spec tree possibly, too

[vernal seal]

Could be a unique item maybe? What class/spec are you?

[faint cape]

Does the build have a planner link?

It's quite probably Woe on the VK tree

but could be Flame Drinker's Blade on rive

[vernal seal]

What does it say if you hover over it?

Should show up in the bottom right

[floral badge]

Do you have all of the same gear too?

Specifically, the ring and belt? I’m wondering if it’s the damage per stack of doom from the belt.

[faint cape]

See what I said above

[buoyant sinew]

no sorry, the only bone golem build I've played is pyre golem

[worldly narwhal]

anyone here go the melee marksman build?

[mild wind]

You got a Spark Charge Spellblade build for inspiration? I have a few variants I've been messing around with, curious what you've played.

Core of my builds is always Mana Strike. The bit I vary is whether to spec:

• Enchant Weapon (just for attack speed buff and the Zap procs, great for single-target), or
• Lightning Blast (autocast from Static and Surge, it just deletes AoE packs)

Actually, now that I think of it, Static isn't doing much for me. I could drop Static and use both of those...

[buoyant sinew]

I've mostly messed around with perry's version where the main damage comes from surge triggering static and mana strike is something to do in between surge cooldowns. I don't have my planner link handy but this is the one perry provided, I haven't changed it a massive amount. https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/PQDekdOB

[rustic fulcrum]

anyone know how rare the sunforged set is for sentinels? trying to get it for forge army build

[restive wasp]

Has anyone here tried ActionRPG's Smite Paladin? Winding down on my Sorc and I know I want to play Paladin but I'm torn between his build and another by a guy called Mordarim.

[faint cape]

Just an FYI apparently the text on fragment is bugged, it's actually +2 per 10 max mana

[fathom glacier]

What is the best affixes to roll on this armor? Also, is there an updated build guide using this armor that someone wouldn't mind sharing? I'm thinking of making an acolyte tonight.

[faint cape]

+1 max skeleton is easily top tier, aside from that idk

just whatever you can get that fits your build, the +1 skele affix can literally be T1

[fathom glacier]

ok ty

99% of what I'm reading online about this armor is that it's garbage, not sure if that's true

[quartz blaze]

If my main hand has nothing, and my offhand has a shield, does that still count as "unarmed"

[faint cape]

well, you got a super rare item with 2 LP, I think you are obligated either way by the Rule of RNGeezus

[sterile widget]

Yes

[faint cape]

Yeah, offhand items are not weapons

[sterile widget]

I believe you could also use a quiver

Quiver meme build, go

[quartz blaze]

what if it is an offhand 1h weapon

[sterile widget]

Go

[faint cape]

lol well weapons are not offhand items, even if you put them in that slot

[quartz blaze]

Im trying to make a 1punch paladin... hmm i wonder actually if theres is a quiver that works

[sterile widget]

Arrow guard the answer is always arrow guard.

Have covid. Might be delirious

[quartz blaze]

nah its 1 punch, if julra is alive after 1 judgement you did the build wrong. nobody needs the glancing

[sterile widget]

Haha.

I think dread said t4 takes a few punches

Like 3 maybe?

[faint cape]

catalyst not a bad option really

though I don't think the mana consumed counts as mana spent for those catalysts... maybe wrong

[quartz blaze]

not doing build right then

[sterile widget]

[sterile widget]

Mana spent is mana from direct skill use.

[quartz blaze]

Mana is for fueling static orb for 1 shots

also that needs a nerf 😛

[flat grail]

Is it too late to change my build late game if I went bleed hammer build but want to try smite hammer build

[stone maple]

No, just make sure that you have chance to cast smite idols

[faint cape]

As long as it's the same mastery class, yeah

[flat grail]

why do i get bonus corruption now?

[dry narwhal]

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

[flat grail]

thanks bro

[acoustic thicket]

Are echoes taking forever to load for anyone else?

[flat grail]

i had that problem too, but its because you have your game on your HDD drive and not SSD drive

[acoustic thicket]

Thank you

[zinc anchor]

Interesting, I didn't know about the "Ketchup" mechanic 😛 Thanks for the video

[river hull]

question: assuming you deal 100% fire damage, is +20% fire penetration the same as +20% multiplicative increase in fire damage?

[faint cape]

It's higher if the enemy has fire resistance, but basically yeah. Additive with other sources of pen/shred, though

[glacial yoke]

Hey could anyone TLDR how LP works for me? I understand the mechanic of doing a dungeon and combining two items but thats about it. Are the stat rolls random????

[faint cape]

Stats are taken exactly as-is from the exalted item. Number taken is equal to LP and selected at random.

[glacial yoke]

Does it just take the affix and give you the stats 1-1 or does it roll that affix range again? (5Int could now be 7Int)

[buoyant sinew]

it gives the exact value you had on the exalted item

[faint cape]

Exactly as-is

[glacial yoke]

amazing! Thank you so much!

does it pull them in a certain order?

[faint cape]

must have 4 affixes, and sealed affixes are ignored

[glacial yoke]

like if it only has 1 lp will it just always take the first affix?

[buoyant sinew]

the affixes it chooses are totally random

[glacial yoke]

ooooo gambling. I like it 😄

[faint cape]

Yep - unless you are lucky enough to get a 4LP item, then no gambling at all; it's why those are so rare and so good

[glacial yoke]

does the exalted item have to be the same type as what you are rolling?

[faint cape]

Yes, e.g. 2h axe -> 2h axe

[buoyant sinew]

doesn't have to be the exact same base though

[neat vector]

Is the spell damage on a weapon a big deal?
I just got something with almost DOUBBLE the elemental damage over time on it, but its an enormous sheet dps loss.

[faint cape]

The +spell damage is a massive deal for your spells, yes

[buoyant sinew]

yes, for most builds it is the majority of your base damage

[glacial yoke]

so like it could be like The Slab with a Exalted Helmet?

[neat vector]

I feel really stupid for thinking it wouldn't be haha. Thanks friends!

[faint cape]

No, shield to shield

[glacial yoke]

ok thats what i had thought

[faint cape]

Nah it's okay, base damage isn't shown anywhere. For reference, I think it's typical to assume base spell damage is equivalent to +20 added damage

[buoyant sinew]

I was just going to do an example with smite, which is 30 base damage

so yeah if your weapon is 60 then that's the major contributor to your base damage

and most builds don't have that many other sources of flat spell damage

[faint cape]

Yep - but Smite has a damage effectiveness of 150%, so +20 gives you 30 damage

[neat vector]

@faint cape For the longest time I couldn't figure out if "weapon damage" applied to Shield Throw. Than I realized there is no typical "weapon damage", its base melee or spell and so on.

Learning

[high tusk]

Hi guys, I have a question about critical strike chance. Is there a reason that my ability's sheet dps keeps scaling passed 100% crit chance?

[split elk]

new player here. where do I find gear for a minion build at super low level? am I supposed to be crafting it when I get the minion damage shards

[faint cape]

Yep! Weapons are all basically stat sticks. Throwing attacks get most of their flat damage from +throwing damage affixes

[faint cape]

If you're using Ignivar's Head, because it counts. Otherwise, sounds like a bug.

[faint cape]

That definitely works, and is pretty typical for all builds to do. Setting your filter to highlight items with minion damage also helps

[split elk]

@faint cape thanks. I just used heavyz acolyte filter. idk how to make my own.

[faint cape]

I believe he gives some guidelines on how to tailor his filter to fit your needs, not super familiar with it myself though

[split elk]

sure. just trying to figure out things. first up, what to put my points into lol

[zinc anchor]

Making your own loot filter is SUPER easy...

I wouldn't recommend crafting at super low levels because you don't even have enough affix shards yet, and runes of shattering are expensive, etc. I probably wouldn't start crafting until you start doing monoliths. Just my two cents.

Highlight minion items, and then you'll easily spot the good ones and can equip them when you get them

[split elk]

monoliths? highlight?

[faint cape]

Eh, if you have shards, feel free to use them, crafting gives you a huge power boost early game

[zinc anchor]

By "highlight" i mean "show and emphasize/change color" in the loot filter. Monoliths is the main end-game thing. You can get to it early around lvl 25-30 but it's lvl 58 so probably don't want to start it yet. But when you do you'll start getting exalted items and it's a good time to start crafting, not that crafting rares is out of the question. That'sjust my opinion

shards take forever to stack up there's a ton of different ones

[faint cape]

maybe save your glyphs and runes until you have a decent handful, but otherwise no need to hold back

[zinc anchor]

runes of discovery are OK to use as they are useless later and use no shards

[faint cape]

your common damage, resistance, etc. shards you'll also have way more than you could ever use

[pulsar tree]

have a question, i just started playing LE i just got to the octopus boss in campaign. Is he bugged where you cant do magic damage to him?

[floral badge]

There's no such thing as "magic" damage in LE. Assuming you mean spells, certain spells (IE: Smite) have a hard time targeting Lagon. Aim further away from the platform, closer to his health bar.

[worldly narwhal]

can you get a jelkhors blade from a rune of ascendence

[sterile widget]

Rune of Ascendance can roll any global random drop, including Jelkhor's . It doesn't roll boss specific uniques.

[worldly narwhal]

appreciate u

[sacred jungle]

can you add affixes to uniques?

[coarse depot]

Does anyone use a numpadless keyboard and know how to numlock cast with one?

[faint cape]

If they have legendary potential, yes. I recommend looking at the in game guide or a quick tutorial on legendaries

[faint cape]

You need numlock to do it. Or you could use some means to mechanically hold down your keys

[coarse depot]

I tried changing one of my mouse buttons to num lock and my aura of decay to 3 but it didnt work

[spare glen]

Are the Boots of Vithrasil bugged?

[west vapor]

what is the best weapon for the bone golem necro

should i just go with what maxroll says or is there a better option

[spare glen]

I can cheese them by unequipping them before transforming and re-equip after and can still move..

[brazen summit]

how do i get unlock fall of emp? i finished everything else

[faint cape]

You'd have to change the function of your number keys to be like numpad ones. The effect is caused by lack of a 'key up' event

[zinc anchor]

If you're going for physical damage, sceptre or 2h Axe. If elemental damage, maybe sceptre or staff?

[rustic fulcrum]

whats this symbol for? I'm assuming its forge guards ring of shields , but not sure

[zinc anchor]

Is that the altar that gives you like the 3 ghost crabs or whatever?

[sick yacht]

It's for the ice beetle shrine

[rustic fulcrum]

ohhhh lmao, ty

[acoustic thicket]

Wish we can report players ingame xD

Some of these names

[native sail]

Put in a report to support

!support

[ripe brook]

Let's work together to get it sorted! We've support articles and a contact form here: https://support.lastepoch.com/.

[native sail]

Upper right corner

[pulsar tree]

is this bugged rotten to the core? on necro?

[vernal seal]

Wow, an LP3 Hammer of Lorent... Wtf do I do with that haha

Did they change how corruption increase works? o_O It seems like reset echoes like 8 bajillion miles away from center give WAAAAAAAYAYYYYYYYY less corruption than they used to?

[acoustic thicket]

uve started a new character? corruption on all timelines scales with your highest timeline corruption

[hearty creek]

I have created my first toon, and have completed the quest up to choosing my specialization. I chose my spec, and now I cannot interact with most anything in the game. I have logged out/restarted the game. Help!

[acoustic thicket]

or u went from 100 to lets say 300, and cause your highest timeline has lets say 400, further increases will not be that quick like at the beginning

[acoustic thicket]

reinstall the game and if that not helps, write to LE support i guess

[hearty creek]

That seems extreme, but I guess ill give it a go...

[acoustic thicket]

well another option is just to start a new character

but this kind of a bug is worrying

[hearty creek]

yeah, past my refund timer too :/

[vernal seal]

No... this is not a new toon. I just feel like I remember being able to get like +30 corruption from like... 3 sources totaled? Now I struggle to get 20 from just two lines. Not sure what third line is missing.

[acoustic thicket]

it stacks depends on how many times you kill the boss before killing orobys, and it resets when u die in orobys fight

[vernal seal]

Right, I know that, and that still shows up, but I swear there used to be 3 lines before. It'd be like "Corruption +XX" and then "Something I can't remember +XX" and "Eye of Orobys +XX"

But the middle line is gone.

[hearty creek]

Uninstall and reinstall did not work

[acoustic thicket]

maybe now ure trying to kill it on your highest coruption timeline so it not scales you to highest corruption and is not giving u a bonus

[vernal seal]

Oh... That may be. I didn't know that was a thing. That makes sense though.

[acoustic thicket]

yeah it's made to farm corruption faster on other timelines, sometimes it's a little pain if we go very high on one timeline, automatically each orobys on another timeline gives us a lot of corruption even if we dont want to, and it's hard to reduce corruption

i think it needs a little rework

[mild wind]

FYI, the tooltip for Fragment of the Enigma is wrong. It actually gives Spark Charge 2 Lightning Damage per 10 mana, not Intelligence https://www.reddit.com/r/LastEpoch/comments/12kkd4s/any_fance_build_ideas_for_this_well_rolled/?sort=confidence

[quasi gate]

is the passive skill "Prayer" triggered by "Way of the Cleric" in "Warpath"?

[torpid sluice]

hey will controller support be improved? I was hoping for native diablo 4 support feel

[rare abyss]

struggling a bit on T4 julra. I've killed her a few times, but sometimes, when I avoid the big clock aoe by pressing D, I get pulled back AUTOMATICALLY (without me pressing any button) to the other phase just before the explosion and die... Is there a mechanic I'm not aware of?

[crude jewel]

whats the difference between "Class Specific Shard Drop Rate" and "Skill Shard Drop Rate"? for example if i want + level for meteor is that then a class specific shard or an skill shard?! its both or??

[elfin meteor]

Hello guys i'm a returning player, hopefully this is the right place to ask this. For my first new charater i want a general strong build to farm a bunch of uniques and items and then theorycraft my own build after i get some cool gear for it. What would be the best build for this? Basically just something really strong that can comfortably farm all content.

[crude jewel]

look on lastepochtools.com and YT for farm builds

thats what i do

[elfin meteor]

yeah there's just so many suggestions out there that i get a bit overwhelmed haha

[sick yacht]

Just pick almost any druid build

[sterile widget]

There is a known bug with the dungeon ability where it activates twice instead of once

[livid shuttle]

Is offline mode more bugfree than online or they have the same version of the game and offline atm is just more stable?

[sterile widget]

Best of both worlds -- it's the same version of the game with different bugs 🙂

Of course, because it runs the game entirely on your local machine, you won't get any network or server-related issues (other than if you have a login or chat issue as both require online connectivity).

[livid shuttle]

Thanks for the info 🙂

[elfin meteor]

most druid builds i'm seeing are strong, particularely cold dot wearbear seems like FOTM, but they struggle with boss damage. Is boss damage less important? Is there a build that balances clear and single target damage well, while still being somewhat tanky?

[sick yacht]

Lightning bug druid

[dry narwhal]

lightning bug good

[elfin meteor]

i'll look into it thanks

Just strange seeing builds being advertised as broken taking 5 minutes to kill orobryss and then other builds killing t4 boss in 10 seconds haha, but i guess thats for me to learn why that is

[sick yacht]

Because clickbait titles. You can almost guarantee the ones killing bosses in 10 seconds will be fixed in a future patch

[elfin meteor]

fair enough

One last question if i may. Is there anything in LE anywhere close to the likes of screen-clearing possible in PoE with like kinetic blast/tornado shot kinda shenanigans? Closest i've seen so far is Reign of Winter Bowmage

[rare abyss]

why isn't there a displayed cap on crit avoidance? it sounds like 100% crit avoidance will avoid 100% of crits... ? am I missing something?

[crude jewel]

if i have 305max mana i have all the time double increased dmg even if my at the moment mana is 10?

[rare abyss]

that sounds right

[crude jewel]

ty

[sick yacht]

That's probably the closest

[sick yacht]

#suggestions-and-like-to-see you aren't missing something

[candid fossil]

Hi, what's the #3 of the modifiers actually mean?

[rare abyss]

means you'll have it for 3 echoes

[stone granite]

You aren't missing anything. 100% is obviously cap and yes it means you don't get crit.

[candid fossil]

I see, thank you so much. It's been bothering me for a while now

[river hull]

"You deal additional fire damage with melee attacks if you have cast a spell recently" - does 'spell' in this sentence include Divine Bolt?

[stone granite]

Is divine bolt a spell?

Are you casting it?

[sick yacht]

You cannot cast divine bolt, so no. It's a proc.

[river hull]

interesting

but a sigil of hope would be such a spell?

even if it triggers automatically

[storm blaze]

Pretty sure if it says "cast a spell" it does not include triggered spells

[sick yacht]

If it's triggered, no. If you have it set to numlock, yes.

[crude jewel]

whats the difference between "Class Specific Shard Drop Rate" and "Skill Shard Drop Rate"? for example if i want + level for meteor is that then a class specific shard or an skill shard?! its both or??

[dry narwhal]

class specifc does not necesarily mean just skills

like primalist has melee minon critcal chance on chest, thats not a skill

[crude jewel]

i see so for meteor (or another skill) would apply both

[dry narwhal]

i believe skills are in the pool of class specific

but im not 100%

[crude jewel]

i see ^^

then i will go with skill i guess

[dry narwhal]

its like how companions are minions but minions aren't companions

at least i think

[crude jewel]

didnt know

[dry narwhal]

yeah, only primalist has companions

[worthy ledge]

Good day everyone.. I need some minor advice.. I'm playing a fire necro build and hit lvl92 now. Which area should I target for leveling? Normal monoliths are too easy, empowered monoliths really expose my unoptimal gear, it's too easy to get oneshotted.. should I stick to the empowered monos or rather get 50 corruption on the normal ones?

[sick yacht]

Empowered

By 92 you should definitely have good enough gear for empowered

But even in the highest regular monos you're getting lower xp because the area level is below you. Empowered is all lvl 100

[worthy ledge]

Thanks. That's what I thought.. I'm probably just spoiled by the easy mode I was playing before 🥹

[sick yacht]

Most of my characters get into empowered around lvl 70, necro is pretty safe. You should be fine

[worthy ledge]

Certain aoe's basically instakill me tho. Otherwise it's not a problem at all. My build is just too glasscannon'ish I guess

[sick yacht]

Get more hp and cap crit avoid.

Also, don't stand in aoes

They're telegraphs for a reason

[worthy ledge]

I'm trying to get gud 🙃 just wanted reassurance I'm not banging my head against a wall

Whats the crit avoid cap?

[sick yacht]

Movespeed is goated, especially if you don't have transplant. But I would recommend transplant

[sick yacht]

100%

[worthy ledge]

Using the mage teleport instead, but yeah, going for movespeed was the first thing. Certainly helps

[sick yacht]

How are you using the mage teleport on a necro

[worthy ledge]

skeleton mage has a path in skilltree that has teleport

[sick yacht]

Oh okay I misunderstood

I thought you meant the class mage that has the spell teleport

[sterile widget]

Skeleport

[sick yacht]

Skip, I appreciate you and your humor

And your stash art is best

[sterile widget]

😀 I have been deep in echoes so have been less frequently tinkering in that regard. I have tabs of green, blue and red shards now though.

A full tab each

[sick yacht]

That's impressive

[terse yarrow]

Okay all my Primalist players.

Ward Crows or Ice Thorn Shield defense skill builds for extra passive survivability? and Why do you prefer it?

🕊️ = Crows
🌵 = Thorns

[rare abyss]

"transfer crafting items"

[sick yacht]

Can't make art with them if they're in crafting inventory

[sterile widget]

Indeed. I want to make an inventory rainbow.

Besides I have thousands in crafting inventory

[rare abyss]

good point

[sterile widget]

If I get Red Ring, I have plans for it

Like the Bastion, it will get an installation

[torpid sluice]

Anyone used controller for this game

[bleak vine]

I'm using controller for all my builds nowadays

Game auto target enemies with controller, so it's really nice

[faint cape]

You are probably better off having armor shred, depending on how much flat you have overall. You can upgrade that rare with a new one later to close the gap, anyway.

Armor shred is a significant "more damage taken" debuff

[foggy totem]

Anyone has a good 2h axe with void damage for a lev. 70 Void Knight to trade?

(i messed up my new one by using chaos shard on it by mistake and already have had gambled away the old one because I thought I got a replacement and thus here I am without a weapon)

[dire fossil]

Is there any way to move these abilities down to the middle of the screen? its very annoying having to look in the top left corner to see when my totems are timing out.
A suggestion is to have an indicator on the skill itself when its about time to out, sort of like the cooldown circle, but maybe slightly different.

[sleek sluice]

you cannot trade in the game yet

[foggy totem]

Both parties can gift to each other I guess

That would constitute a trade based on mutual trust (unfounded)

[sleek sluice]

You can only gift if the item dropped while playing together

you cannot gift items you found yourself*

[foggy totem]

Oh

Okay

😦

[worthy plover]

Wtf is this Throne of Ambition thing actually an idol that goes in idol slot?

[sick yacht]

Yeah

[steady star]

Yes, really solid for just pure armor stackign for bosses

[worthy plover]

This seems like it shouldve been the first thing I focused on farming

[steady star]

now that you have it its very useful for every future character when you get into empowered 😄

[worthy plover]

I dont have it I just read about it and couldnt believe it was an idol

Is it just a case of grinding stability and refarming that timeline?

[steady star]

ye its a boss drop from one of the timelines

its quite common

[verbal kettle]

Are defenses better after this rescent update?

[flat grail]

What is this?

i never seen this drop before

[sick basalt]

does frostwyrm fury converts snake venom into cold damage?

is this also converted to cold dmg?

[open zealot]

where is the target dummy now?

[steady star]

The arena

[west vapor]

POLL TIME...

DRUID VS. PALADIN

AAAAAAND I HEAR CRICKETS

LOL

oops sorry for all caps

[gentle drum]

Does mighty delivery node and strategic patience apply to holy trail damage?

[faint cape]

Doesn't the serpent strike cold conversion only convert bleeding and phys? It shouldn't affect anything poison-related.

[faint cape]

What do they say they do?

[gentle drum]

They say jav dmg but holy trail has different scaling than jav is why I ask

[sick basalt]

Druid can have someone heal him with sustain permanently while having a dodge rate that can reach 80-90% without much effort

What can paladin do

[gentle drum]

But keen outlook says jav hits so diff wording than th other 2

[faint cape]

If all they say is javelin damage, then they apply since holy trail is cast by jav

[gentle drum]

Ok thanks for clarifying

[sick basalt]

Nah it states it converts all poison sources into frostbite

[west vapor]

okay im about to roll a new primalist any tips on fastest route through story or a link to a guide that says what i can skip and what i cant to get to endgame fastest

this will be my first alt rush through so

[faint cape]

No mention of poison

[marble plume]

can someone explain to me how this builds scales? is it through minion damage, bleed damage or both?

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

[faint cape]

I'm sure there are videos around that have streamlined it. I just complete everything up through getting the lance (aka killing the tree dude) and then rush monos, works fine. LETools has quest checklists that you could probably use to streamline it better, but too much effort for me lol

Make sure to pick up magic items and put those crafting materials to use, because crafting really is OP in early game when you have unlimited mats

[acoustic thicket]

new character why cant i pick these up ?

[faint cape]

Looks like primarily minion bleed damage to me

[faint cape]

Press Alt+Z or Z

[marble plume]

minion bleed damage? is that a thing?

[acoustic thicket]

what does that do

[faint cape]

Shows/hides everything on the ground (if that doesn't work for you, it's a filter issue instead)

[west vapor]

i have thousands of mats and tons of uniques waiting for the character when i get to engame just want to get the idols unlocked and get mastery

[cold plaza]

@fickle parcel ping me here and ask your dot question. You phrased it in a weird way, want to make sure you get an answer.
Throwing + bleed would not trigger throwing leech by the bleed, etc

[faint cape]

Yep, bleed deals "physical DOT" so when your minion applies bleed, you scale it with minion phys, minion DOT, etc

or just generic minion damage, of course

[raven mulch]

ive done empowered Heorot like 30 times and i have never seen a yulias path am i just getting incredibly unlucky?

[west vapor]

i also have tons of arena keys for leveling via that route as well

[marble plume]

thanks I will try to find out what prefixes I need to get to scale it properly

[raven mulch]

Can you get Yulias path boots (its boss only drop i think) from runes of ascendance?

[fickle parcel]

thx, that was basically what I was asking. I guess this is the same for DoTs being inherent to certain skills then (e.g. Poison/Ignites from Acid Flask)?

[faint cape]

Keep in mind, too, that manifest armor gets the stats from specific gear slots, which is why they stack so much non-minion bleed stats on stuff like the body armor

because MA copies those stats to itself and multiplies them

[cold plaza]

If you have "Throwing Leech", it'll only apply to hit damage (unless you're specifically playing Disintegrating Aura Hammer Throw). If your Throwing Attack applies an Ailment, then that is not Throwing Damage.

[vernal seal]

I really like the idea of Forgeguard and MA, but man it just feels so slow and sad for clear compared to literally every other build I've played.

[gentle kraken]

Ty for posting this. I also just reported it and i thought i was the only one haha. Im assuming this isnt working as intended

I posted the bug in #368968647114227723

that's what I feared, thanks! 😅 Guess I'll have to use other means of sustain then (you will see the results in a week 🐷 )

[faint cape]

An easy source of leech for ailment builds is Bleeding Heart

it's a unique amulet that gives generic leech

[fickle parcel]

right, totally forgot about that item, thanks.

Think I got some with 1-2 LP somewhere to mess around

[clear plank]

has anyone fought emperor of corpses since the patch? i know they buffed soul bomb, but it feels practically undodgeable

[stable tulip]

Hey everyone, I'm trying to create a loot filter for specific exalted items, but I'm having trouble. I'm not even sure if it's possible. Basically, I want to find a bow with two affixes from a pool of six, and one of those affixes should be exalted (+T6). The only method I've found so far is to use the advanced settings and set the total affixes tier equals or greater than 9. The problem I'm facing is that I might end up with an exalted item that has a +T6 affix not from my desired pool of six, but it also has two T5 affixes or one T4 + T5 from my pool, making the total tier 9/10, and causing the item to be flagged by the filter. Any suggestions?

[fickle parcel]

I pushed him upwards towards the edge of the arena to get more space to dodge. Worked fine for me, but that might still desync him

[clear plank]

fair enough, i'll try that. thanks!

I guess i'm just also wondering if this fight is now functioning as intended... soul bomb just feels really bad now

[clear plank]

I think this is not possible with the loot filter system. You could filter for an item that has one of your affixes at t6+, or you could filter for any exalted item with two of your affixes (possibly not at t6), but those are probably your best options

[faint cape]

Soul bomb was pretty rough before depending on your build. We've been having it easy mode for a while now

non-minion ranged builds have it pretty easy though

[stable tulip]

Thank you!

[clear plank]

maybe i just need to get used to this mechanic now. seems like not nearly enough time to reliably get out of the aoe. if your movement skill is on CD you're just immediately dead

[faint cape]

You could use a "show" filter for all items with a T6+ affix that is NOT what you want, then under that, "recolor" exalted items with two of the affixes you want (which you know one of which will be exalted), then show all exalteds under that

Alternatively, just show all items with just one of the affixes you want at T6+, and read the item yourself to see if it has a second. I do it this way since it's plenty uncommon as-is

[stable tulip]

yes, you are right

thank you

[faint cape]

Yup, gotta save your movement skill to dodge it, or tank skill, or however you plan to survive. Also, never run this fight (or almost any boss) with the enrage under half health modifier - absolutely brutal

[dire herald]

does this node count as directly casting lightning blast for the double cast chance? The overload node does mention "YOU Zap" and not static casts Zap

[faint cape]

No, directly casting specifically means pressing the hotkey for the skill on your bar

(and successfully completing the cast, of course)

[dire herald]

😦 every time I find cool combos it either sucks or the damage sucks... welp guess ill boringly self cast lightning blast then

[shut knot]

Can anyone please confirm if this applies to chakram?

[chrome niche]

Not sure if this is the right area or not to ask this, but can one have multiple Masteries? (EG: A Primal having a Beast Master Mastery and having a Druid Mastery)

[faint cape]

Chakram is still shurikens, so yes

[faint cape]

No, but you can invest in the masteries you didn't select up to the halfway point (chain)

[grand rapids]

Has anybody tried a focusing on Archer Skeles in a Necro build? I got Reach of the Grave, Melvern's Writ, and a Hollow Finger so I was considering cold golem + archers but it seems there's no way to convert 'all' skeleton dmg to ice

Edit: Seems that cold archers might be a dead build, doesn't have an "archer equivalent" of Cryomancers 😢

[chrome niche]

Drat. it would be good to summon a raptor and be able to have a werebear form.

[vernal seal]

I think you can do squirrels with wearbear form if you get the helm ;P Dunno how actually good it would be, but you can do it.

[faint cape]

You can have a bear companion in werebear form, which is kinda funny

but yeah, certain skills are class-locked, and that allows them to make those skills have stronger mechanics or mechanics that would be broken if combined

[dreamy ore]

I dual wield blast knives. before i've upgraded one that had a low +melee dmg to a high roll. but the sheet dps on deto arrow didnt change?

also I expected having +200 flat dmg to be a Lot more impactful than it feels lol

[faint cape]

You could focus on scaling their physical damage, though a large chunk of their damage will be phys/necrotic/fire/(maybe cold) no matter what you do

[faint cape]

DPS calc might be jank. 200 flat damage is nice, but you are throttled by your other damage scaling vectors because you have to be a Marksman

and for reference, +200 is on par with or just a little higher than a regular 2h weapon with a flat damage affix on

[west vapor]

if i have a weapon like the torch that inflicts a flame attack will it proc an item like calamity that procs on fire skills or does the fire skill to proc calamity have to be from my bar

[acoustic thicket]

hey guys any build tier list wanna make a new char and playing some build
whats the strongest class atm for solo?

[faint cape]

What does calamity do again? Isn't it just ignite chance for fire skills? That should apply to your fire skills no matter how they are cast. The torch might not be a good example, because I don't think it hits, so won't apply on hit stuff.

[sick yacht]

Unless it specifies "you cast" calamity works.

[sick yacht]

[quartz blaze]

Question, if I have +10% fire damage on my character's passive tree, then I use a unique item to convert the damage of my fire ability to cold, am I still getting that 10% dmg?

conversation being an item, not through the skill tree

[cedar locust]

Hello! I can see a few of you were discussing the Emperor of Corpses Soul Bomb attack and the team have asked if players could report this on the Forums following this guide : #1096459778189955082 message - Thank you!

@clear plank @fickle parcel

[sick yacht]

I believe item conversion happens first, so in this situation, no

Ngl I can't think of a conversion that happens after damage increases

[quartz blaze]

gotcha i assumed so. thanks

[faint cape]

Conversions never carry over damage scaling unless explicitly stated (like some skill spec tree nodes may change)

[dreamy ore]

i was thinking cuz if the flat melee dmg isnt adding correctly. i might just be better off using a T7 dagger. tho then deto arrow would have a mana cost again.

[faint cape]

As far as I've heard, the damage scaling is working correctly

[white cypress]

launching last epoch is starting to take minutes? didnt have this issue when i first got the game, anyone know whats going on there?

[faint cape]

when I say that +200 damage is roughly equivalent to using a 2h weapon, that shouldn't give you much confidence in the skill's scaling, since dual wield should give more damage than 2h (granted, daggers give huge crit chance instead of higher flat), and doesn't have attack speed and you have no scaling in your passives

legendary blast daggers are pretty common though and can really help a ton

[dreamy ore]

true. but thats WAY more flat dmg then you'd have by dual wielding rare daggers
and deto arrow has a 200% added scaling. I guess i just need more lightning % and crit multi to back up all the flat

[faint cape]

also true, but idk if dual daggers is even viable outside of bladedancer

and that's because it gives huge bonuses for it, requires it, and/or leans heavily on unique daggers

but yes, blast knife just requires a lot of focus on your gear to scale damage

[lost pecan]

has anyone ever gotten this before?

[hallow bolt]

uh whats going on here? All my gear is gone?

[lost pecan]

first time in over a hundred hours ive seen this

[raw fern]

It's visual bug. Switch zone

[grizzled tapir]

hi guys, will this jav spec also heals myself?

[soft rock]

What are some good ways of leveling up Primalist?

Im supposed to turn into a bladeswarm at higher levels but for now (lvl 21) I'm not sure what to do.

I unlocked Serpent Strike and put on a big sword but my character just T poses and does 0 damage haha

[pastel pebble]

Yes!

[raw fern]

Check the maxroll leveling guides. Maybe they help: https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides

[grizzled tapir]

thank you:D

[soft rock]

As I thought, summon some wolves and swipe to win lol. Thanks!

[quiet sandal]

I know youve already been recommended to follow maxroll guide but I wanted to show another alternative. Been leveling with this build on my latest druid and it's been an absolute breeze.

https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/KBgJG5vQ

I've added skill and passive progression stuff to the planner. All uniques are optional, mainly just give you faster movement speed. The blue gear, weapon specifically is pretty must BIS with only one affix. Use any axe base until you are high enough level for that specific one. The helmet affixes are just stuff to look out for that will greatly bump up your damage

[vernal seal]

Well, I think this came out not terrible?

For like... holy trail paly, or dot werebear, or ... stuff like that

[summer lava]

Is there a functioning Paladin melee build, or is melee just really bad?

[native sail]

UNARMED JUDGEMENT

[pastel pebble]

I'm running a Multistrike Smite boy and it's solid so far

[summer lava]

ive tried a ignition Rive build but some bosses are just insane

[vernal seal]

Good grief why is Lich so busted.

There aren't many functioning melee builds in this game in general... Except for like... Lightning bug I guess?

Well and I suppose things like Warpath and auto bomber VK and stuff. But... generally speaking melee is rough.

[west vapor]

once i hit 20 points in primalist can i just get someone to hop in my game and get me the end of time waypoint to get my mastery or do i have to wait

[vernal seal]

Whoa, an LP3 Shroud of Obscurity... Is that good for Spellblades?

[cobalt pumice]

isnt there any cap in stash tab price? it just goes up indefinitely??

[sleek sluice]

Keeps going up from what I have seen some cost 700k

Atm myself is st 400

[quiet sandal]

You can technically unlock your mastery at any level if you get teleported there. You'll still need 20 levels in base class before you can level the mastery trees, but you would have access to your Mastery skill

[west vapor]

do i have to join someone elses game or can they join mine and use their waypoints

[quiet sandal]

Not quite sure Zalan. I think they could join you and then go to the end of time, then you teleport to them

Id help you out but I'm not home ATM

[west vapor]

its cool

thanks

[fierce kindle]

Playing hammerdin smite pally and have a choice between 34% lightning pen and 100% lightning damage, any idea which one is better? seems like % lightning would be as I am mostly 1 shotting stuff on 301 corruption but looking for input.

[quiet sandal]

Do you have other sources of lightning penetration already? If so how much?

[merry aspen]

Is that increased or more damage?

[fierce kindle]

I dont have any other source of pen at the moment

[merry aspen]

The lightning damage, that is. And how much increased more lightning damage do you have?

[fierce kindle]

it's the lagon blessing, 100% increased lightning damage

391% currently @merry aspen

[quiet sandal]

Wait so you must mean 34% lightning shred?

[fierce kindle]

yes sorry, shred.

[quiet sandal]

Take shred

Imo

[merry aspen]

What build are you running? Could you maintain the shred?

[fierce kindle]

sentinal hammers which proc smite

[quiet sandal]

Would you agree Dee?

Seems like lots of hits which should keep a decent amount of shred up

[fierce kindle]

I hope the add the ability to select any blessing you have unlocked before to try them out vs farming again for a random number.

[merry aspen]

I think I would, yeah. I'm not familiar with the build but let's assume that he can keep the shred up. Then 100% increased is just a 25% increase from his current damage, which neglible.

[fierce kindle]

my smites are usually hitting in the 25-35k range

[pastel pebble]

Penetration goes really far

[merry aspen]

How mich resistance does one shred take off again? 3%?

[summer lava]

i there a passive perk in the paladin tree that gives physical resistance?

[quiet sandal]

Shred would be multiplicitive with penetration wouldn't it?

[merry aspen]

Iirc they behave the same when it comes to calculating damage, but someone correct on that if I'm wrong.

[fierce kindle]

I have 16% lightning pen from paladin tree

and 34% shred lightning resistance

[merry aspen]

That's 50% at max which is "more" damage which is going scale harder than 100% increase. I'm with Winston definitely.

[fierce kindle]

sweet thanks guys! time to farm up the 50% shred chance

its roughly the same on bosses though, not including any penetration which may multiply it.

[quiet sandal]

Lots more sources of increased damage, though. Shred is pretty exclusive

[merry aspen]

And you are killing regular monsters most of the time. If the increase for bosses is comparable you are still benefitting for those.

Rares specifically. Some of them can be very tanky. Like patrolling fleshes.

[fierce kindle]

yeah, agree. thank you for talking it thrugh for me

[quiet sandal]

Fuck those profane flesh 😂 so tanky

[fierce kindle]

hahaha

can be for sure depending on mods

[merry aspen]

Those are the ones. They take forever...

[quiet sandal]

And can oneshot ya if you're not careful

[fierce kindle]

the nasty for me is the birds that call down the holy ground. normal basic mob nearly 1 shots you every time

and they can do it 500 miles away off screen

[merry aspen]

[quasi gate]

is the passive skill "Prayer" triggered by "Way of the Cleric" in "Warpath"?

[west vapor]

do we have anyone here who play the swarmblade lightning nado build?

[lucid dew]

How stable is coop experience? Any stuttering, skill/dmg delays, desync? We want to play 2 players without any solo play. With that in mind is it the right time to jump into this game or is coop not yet good enough?

[grand rapids]

any1 know if the "x% increased damage below x health" works on DOTs?

[raw fern]

Based on what i've read on forums, 2 player party is pretty good. In general based on early posts, campaign has worst loading times that monolith in parties

[rugged sinew]

It should

[quasi gate]

I haven't done a lot of long coop sessions, but lots of little bugs here and there playing multiplayer solo - disconnects randomly, or mobs just randomly stop taking damage - I don't disconnect, but I have to portal out and back in or all the mobs are invincible

this game could really use a compatibility matrix of "x works with y". It's frustrating to not know whether or not you are wasting your points

[vernal seal]

Is singularity good for anything?

[ruby prairie]

Ahh I found it I did the 50 dollar kick starter

[rustic fulcrum]

how much +% minion HP do you need for forge army forge guard to feel good? lvl 90 and they still die constantly despire taking all HP nodes, HP passives, attunement on gear, and minon HP affixes i can. Currently theyre 600% increased HP

[vague badge]

do they benefit from your resistances?

[quasi gate]

i guess this really is "ask the community" and not "answer" 😆

[vague badge]

its a relatively new game, more people with questions than people with answers

[quasi gate]

yes, that is what I was observing

it doesn't help that not everything utilizes tags and not everything has a "proc" icon yet. So it's hard to tell is a passive like prayer is working and just doesn't have an icon for when it's active, or it doesn't interact with something specific. So lots and lots of questions about how x and y interact. And there isn't exactly a sandbox to test in either

[latent spire]

crafting a ring and I can choose between int or % lightning damage, which would be better for damage?

playing lightnight static orb build

[fickle parcel]

are you more likely to get the soul gambler uniques on higher tiers of the dungeon?

[spark drum]

For raw damage always take specific damage affixes

[latent spire]

Ty

[spark drum]

Stat points are more useful for their other benefits and passives/uniques that provide scaling off them

[worldly narwhal]

should i wait for all the gear i need to respec or just send it

[rugged sinew]

Well the likely answer is that they are just pretty bad atm

I don't think you're really doing anything wrong

[worldly narwhal]

anyone here going melee marksman, i got a quetsion

[gray wasp]

is anyone else getting an issue where LE's audio isnt being captured by OBS?

[sleek shard]

What is this suppose to be can't read it by hovering over it

[drifting socket]

did you try capturing a window instead of the whole screen or the other way around?

[gray wasp]

ivee been trying via the application capture

i could try to pick up just the desktop audio

[drifting socket]

see if that works 🙂

worst case, you could mute all other apps and just leave LE running

[gray wasp]

seems like desktop audio works fine

the application capture isnt

[drifting socket]

see if it changes if you run the game as admin or compatibility mode

sometimes that may fix it

[worldly pivot]

i think it's a recent bug

[sleek shard]

Ok thanks

[gray wasp]

would this be automatically in compatibility mode if its downloaded and running thru steam?

[drifting socket]

i think you might need some start params, but i'm not sure what that would be, see if there's anything on google

hmm i just restarted the application and it suddenly works LOL

its being picked up by application capture now

So around the time the new update came which introduced new icons, I guess

[quartz blaze]

someone told me after you play with the same person for a few hours together it unlocks gifting between each other permanently or something? is this true?

[native sail]

It is not true

What they are thinking of is the upcoming resonance system, which is also NOT "play together for a few hours and unlock permanent gifting", it's "play together for a few hours and acquire single-use consumable items that allow you to gift the specific recipient an item you normally couldn't"

[rugged sinew]

Item gifting isn't in the game yet, and the exact details of how long you have to play together and how often the resonance item drops aren't out yet

[native sail]

Item gifting IS in the game, I don't know what you're on about

Resonances are not in the game

[worldly narwhal]

indeed it is, however the item has to be dropped in the same area as both ofthe players

[rugged sinew]

Resonance isn't in the game

[native sail]

You don't need resonance to gift

Only to gift to people who weren't WITH you when it dropped

[rugged sinew]

Yeah that but I didn't consider that gifting

[native sail]

Well you're wrong

[rugged sinew]

For the purpose he is talking about isn't in the game

Only the sharing of loot that drops while playing in a party

[quartz blaze]

do passive skills like holy aura need to be on your toolbar to get the passive benefit?

[rugged sinew]

Yes

[frozen jungle]

hey guys what makes static orb autocast?

Does anyone know why does every chakram build guide requires us to have passives like this where I should throw more and more shurikens but I can only throw 1 chakram

[zinc anchor]

Does using a rune of ascendance have a chance to give the item LP?

[faint cape]

Farther shades have much higher odds at dropping the rarer uniques. If I'm farming them, I go out to 14-16 base corruption minimum

[faint cape]

Yes, lower rate than level 100 drop

[faint cape]

Gets scaling per extra chakram

If you have an infinite loading screen, try verifying Steam game file integrity. It might help

its only for party play, never solo

[faint cape]

@strong rampart The reasoning I heard from Mike is essentially

ice thorns was made redundant with the release of spirit thorns and thorn burst (essentially the druid rework)

[strong rampart]

What's spirit thorns?

[faint cape]

it was planned to get replaced at the same time, but wasn't high enough priority

[strong rampart]

Im a shaman build tbf

[faint cape]

spells granted by spriggan form

shaman is either up next or very soon for a rework, so I'd like to think they'll replace ice thorns with a spell that is much better for shaman

[strong rampart]

I hope, it's a good skill

[faint cape]

I really want an actual 100% lightning spell for primalist, maybe someday, but maybe they very intentionally don't want it that way

[dreamy ore]

T7 armor shred or flat throwing dmg (on gloves), for shuriken build.
my sheet dps goes down by a good chunk without the flat dmg. but with armor shred duration/effect idols. i feel like the t7 armor shred would be better. tho i guess maybe only for bosses.?

[strong rampart]

Tornado shaman is fun

[faint cape]

Can't have bleeding at all ("immunity to bleeding damage" would give what you want, if it exists)

[stark stone]

Cheers

[faint cape]

Depends on how much other flat damage you have and whether you have other sources of armor shred. I'd say if you already have some armor shred, then flat all the way.

[dreamy ore]

i didnt expect flat dmg to be that impactful since i dont really have much %dmg yet.

but yeah i definitely went with flat. i can just swap the gear/idols on bosses

[weary tangle]

Ever since the patch I am getting MORE and MORE infinite loading screens and having to alt+f4 -.-

anyone else?

[wheat flint]

me too

[zinc anchor]

I didn't expect flat damage to be that good either until I tested it out. It's ridiculous.

[dreamy ore]

I am still searching for a 2nd fulgurite. hopefully with some LP. thatll be a nutty dps increase

[agile lodge]

Have everyone try solo and see if anyone else still lags. Certain skills are bugged and cause a ton of lag, and if one person in the party has them the whole party loads slower.

[zinc anchor]

Are there any other items besides Melvern's Writ that summons minions that (most) classes couldn't otherwise get?

Is there a relevant high tier gambling for items? I.e. all the possible outcomes at Artem the Gambler are limited to mid-levels.

[rotund dome]

When looking at an ability tree and it has an damage type conversion and says "Shock Chance Converts to Poison Chance".. Will ALL shock related nodes now apply just chance? The node in question is "Shock duration"

[native sail]

No, but it gives you more unique drops which in turn means more chances to get it with LP.

[native sail]

Does it say "from all sources"

[rotund dome]

The tooltip does say Shock chance from all sources is converted to poison chance

[native sail]

Then all your shock chance gets converted. Other things are depending on the specific conversion, some do and some don't, if it doesn't say anything when you hold alt the next best option is to ask Mike in #👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs when he's available as he'd be most likely to have specific information.

[rotund dome]

So if I had Shock chance on gear it would convert to poison on this particular ability as well? :o

[native sail]

Yup

[rotund dome]

Oh damn, didn't even really think about that.. interesting ;o

[dire fossil]

Is it normal to experience parts in the game where the audio just falls out completely and the game stutters?
For example in the aquaducts theres parts where i lose audio completely, and also in lagons temple when you fight the girl right before lagon my audio just dies and stutters a lot so i cant hear the dialogue.

Im just curious if this is normal or related to my new graphics card

does the higher corruption i have mean i have to go further in the map to not get the reduced corruption from the corruption reseters

Correct.

is there a key to temporarily toggle off items showing on the ground? Sometimes they get in the way of seeing what I am fighting

[viral heart]

hello all,
Does ice barrage shoot faster with cast speed?

[spark drum]

Firebrand/flame reave spellblade

[teal bison]

Hey question is there a way to make mealstrom like an aura ? kinda anoying to refresh every couple seconds something that in my head should be an aura

[spark drum]

Slightly outdated but you just need to shuffle around a few skill points basically https://www.lastepochtools.com/build-guides/flame-reave-crit-spellblade

[slender walrus]

is offline mode less laggy than online mode? been getting alot more stutter since the latest patch

already have game on SSD

[steel grove]

does anyone else have weird janky rubberbanding/teleporting issues with rampage from werebear?

i keep sometimes being teleported back to where i started rampaging or rubberband back midrampage and stuff

skill feels really janky currently

[slender walrus]

keeping the skill pressed instead of tapping it is better for that

[steel grove]

i tried both

[heady dawn]

you can cast it via warcry, or from hit of swipe/maul if using werebear

[steel grove]

still these weird janky teleports/rubberbands seem very glitchy/buggy

[heady dawn]

ive never had these issues but see it pop up a lot, how is your internet connection?

[steel grove]

it cant be an aura because it stacks and stops ur movement on cast i think.

[heady dawn]

im hardwired

[steel grove]

it is a bit weird/tedious/annoying i agree

[steel grove]

same. its def not my internet connection

[heady dawn]

im playing werebear too havent seen that

[steel grove]

it also only happens with rampage

like sometimes i rampage across my screen just to be ported back to where i started and stuff lol

it really needs a fix. makes the game feel really janky imo

[heady dawn]

that would be very annoying!

rampage is life

[steel grove]

i literally feel like im glitching over the screen half the time i rampage haha

[stone granite]

flicker rampage

[steel grove]

also sinc eits not a channeling skill holding it shouldnt be needed to fix it from how i understand plus it doesnt seem to fix it

[faint cape]

Press Alt when viewing the sources of these things for details

[heady dawn]

hmm I also play with a controller no idea if that has anything to do with it

[steel grove]

shouldnt

[faint cape]

Yes

[steel grove]

and i mean its psosible that it is in conjunction with the internet ocnnection btu then its still an issue given i dotn ahev the issue otherwise or in other games

[faint cape]

The default keybind is either Alt+Z or Z, but you can change it to whatever

[heady dawn]

anyone play a warforged?

[steel grove]

the game should be coded in a way that it works smoothly when other games manage the same with my internet connection

[heady dawn]

ive made a werebere druid, and a crit hammer paladin - both fun builds. looking for the next thing to try

[faint cape]

Not exactly. It used to be do-able and was removed. You can proc it from many sources still, such as warcry/roar, swarmblade dash, or spriggan form spells

[teal bison]

ok i guess i'll need to check up a build for it as im going freestyle atm and the refresh is annoying me, so far i really like the game as i got it 2 days ago.

[drifting socket]

at the beginning would you guys suggest doing full bonus stability or it doesn't really matter?

[soft rock]

Try doing a large portion of bonus stability in Empowered Monoliths but in non empowered always just skip to the objective and finish the map as quickly as possible

Not worth going for bonus in normal monos

[drifting socket]

yeah i just started echoes

and wasn't sure if it's worth it

k, ty

[lucid echo]

How come all my echoes are unlocked? Before Ending the storm I could only go up to there....now that I've finished it with some help, everything is unlocked. Why?

On the map they aren't but all the paths too them are

[drifting socket]

1 more question - how do i obtain the rune of ascendance?
I'm meant to use it on a belt to get one of these:
Use this first on a belt to get a unique belt such as
Vipertail,
Thorn Slinger,
Jungle Queen's Chaps of Holding or
Legacy of the Quiet Forest.

[raw fern]

It's a natural drop, just play the game

[ionic crag]

Thx!!

[shut knot]

Anyone playing BD at high corruption levels, could give me some hits how to increase survivability? In the tooltip I have 31% chance to receive a Glancing Blow and I can get it up to close to 100% due to the Apostacy passive + Dusk Shroud. My resistances are all 75% and yet I still get spanked quite roughly by some enemies and sometimes even killed.

[quartz blaze]

If I have Enchant Weapon specialized, yet not on my toolbar (using the autocast node), will I get the passive bonus?

[faint cape]

No

[quartz blaze]

[charred glade]

is there a way to see specific minion damage? have a helmet that gives + skeletal mage dmg, but don't see anything changing in minion stat page

[faint cape]

Not yet, maybe in the future

[charred glade]

alright, ty

[river hull]

if you are using manifest armor, and if you have 1 attunement on an item, and if the bonus is +60% from manifest armor skills to that item, does that mean the minion gets +1.6 attunement?

[azure basin]

is 3/4 legendary potential just rare or do you need to meet some requirements to find them

[worthy plover]

I found 3's while levelling my first character

[vernal seal]

What are the best Bastion abusers, besides the obvious hammer smiteadins and lightning bugs?

Also, I need to figure out how to increase my lightning bug DPS, because even DW I feel like damage is more limiting than survivability RN. Even with stormcarved and solid lightning damage? I feel like I must be missing something

[native sail]

Technically yes but also giving attributes to MA doesn't do anything. They don't have anything on themselves that scales with attunement so all you would be doing is getting the baseline addition of whatever 1 attunement gives them from your stats and then they get a dead affix off the helmet.

[river hull]

thanks

is Forgebreath affected by cast speed assuming the -100% cooldown reduction skills are taken?

[native sail]

Keep in mind that just halves the cooldown, not removes it (I am assuming it is phrased as "cooldown recovery rate"). I can't answer the cast speed thing off the top of my head as I don't have everything memorized like that. Should be easy to find via lastepochtools though

[faint cape]

It does remove the cooldown

[acoustic thicket]

Does this apply to attacks from shadows if I activate them on my third attack?

[native sail]

Gotcha. As the latter half says, can't memorize everything :P

[rugged sinew]

as a general rule all skills that are cast by yourself or minions are affected by cast speed
and all spells that are triggered by something else happening are unaffected by cast speed

forgebreath is cast by your minion

so it is affected by cast speed

[strange wedge]

I just killed Majasa, but the second phase killed me like 7 times without resetting the fight. Is that a bug or intentional?

[dense lynx]

If I turn my golem into a blood golem does he still cast bone hail?

[high tusk]

Question: When using devotion amulet with hammerdin/smite build. In the eding the storm timeline, do I want shred lightning resist on hit, or do I want the mana?
Curious about how shredding resist works. Does 10 stacks of 5% mean 50% (or 30% on bosses) more dmg?

[hollow carbon]

Does anyone know if the drop rate for Reign of Winter is bugged? I've killed the boss 7 times and it hasn't dropped but its supposed to have a 50% drop rate

[rugged sinew]

on bosses it is 20% resist shred
assuming you have nothing else that would be 20% more damage
devotion itself have 3%-15% lightning penetration
shock will reduce resists by another up to 20%
those will all stack additively
so if you have 15% and shock then total would be 55%
compared to not having lightning resist shred you'd still do ~15% more damage

the lightning shred will likely be better unless the mana will give you an expected 10-15% more damage

[faint cape]

The bone shatter retaliation thing? Pretty sure no

[faint cape]

It's not bugged, just random be random

[high tusk]

Fantastic breakdown. Thanks so much for taking the time to write that.

[rugged sinew]

other sources of penetration and such are additive on top of that
but i'm sure it's likely that the mana wont come out to be as good, as sources of penetration are rather limited and you can get mana on other gear pieces

[high tusk]

Question, would chance to shock not be equivalent to the lightning res shred, then?

Especially since chance to shock can roll so much higher than chance to shred resist?
