[crude jewel]

OH with physical is not physical resistance meant it meant armor?

so not the 75% stat and the armor stat?

[forest vapor]

well, both

[crude jewel]

?

[forest vapor]

the main point of it is i think to have armour be able to work on it with the same efficiency as phys

so instead of working at 70% efficienct it works at 100%, for whatever portion you have converted

[crude jewel]

mhm still dont get it and i cant find a question for the confusion atm but ty i will re-read

[crude jewel]

i think i have it now, so you mean instead of capped on 75% resistance, with that skill i can have on T7 max 110% for those 3 dmg types taken as physical? and can tank more as i would on 75% resistance?

[forest vapor]

well, you know how armour works vs hits, and is less effective on hit that arent physical, right

elemental and physical resistance are always cappeda t 75% i think

taking elemental hits as physical just lets your armour work on them at 100% effectiveness

i may be wrong but i feel that is the point of those affixes

[crude jewel]

but void/poison/necro is not elemental

[forest vapor]

sorry, same thing

non-physical, i should say

[crude jewel]

ah got it ^^ ok so

[forest vapor]

if you are a build which is stacking a tonne of armour, these mods might be usfeul for you.. although i cant see using them all the time but maybe to help tank a big one shot from a boss where you know what the damage type is

[crude jewel]

with that affix i get even less dmg from those 3, but i would need still 75% resistance, right?

[forest vapor]

like stack 'necro as phys' and tank corpse emperor soul bomb

yes

to be honest i think those are very niche use affixes

you would almost certainly be able to find something more broadly useful for your build

[crude jewel]

yea iam theorycrafting a sentinel and look what affixes i want atm .... so if i would have 0% necro/poisn/void resistance but 110% damage taken as physical, i would still get oneshooted but with both 75% and 110% not, do i understand that right?

[forest vapor]

if you hover over the armour number in your character sheet in game, it will explain how it works vs phys and non-phys hits, as well as tell you what the effective non-phys armour reduction is

im sorry i dont really understand what you asked there

if you had 100% or more of a damage type taken as physical then i assume it does not matter what your resisitance to that type is.. you are taking is as phys anyway

[crude jewel]

yea sry i cant quite articulate what i mean in a question mhm but ty

[forest vapor]

so technically sure, if you managed to 100% convert a damage type you could probably have that resist at 0% and it would not matter

i dont know if you can reach 100% conversion easily, or at all, though

[crude jewel]

you can have it on helmet and body armour and T7 is 55%

thats why i said 110%

[forest vapor]

oh

oh well ok then, i only really ever notice it on idols

i guess loot filter doesnt show me the chests with it

[crude jewel]

^^

[forest vapor]

hm!

well ok, so if you are willing to burn two slots on helm and body for that, yeah you could get 100% conversion on two elements.. huh.

but if you are doing that the core build needs to be very highly armoured to take advantage of it, presumably

sounds complex tbh!

[crude jewel]

i mean if i would not need 3times resistance to 75 i could use that suffixes slot for something else, thats what iam getting at, but only if its as we think that you can tank those 3 and totally not think about resistance for those 3 stats

[forest vapor]

true, but you do get a lot of res from outside of gear, blessings passives idols and the like

[crude jewel]

yea but as you said it sounds complex so maybe there is a way to rly have 3x0% for non element and tank with those stats more... i will think about it to test it maybe

its an interesting affix if it works rly like that

[forest vapor]

there may be a way but the opportunity cost might be high, if you have to give up some powerful affixes on helm and body for it

are those ones suffix or prefix

[crude jewel]

prefix

thats the interesting part, and if its not as we think, then it would still be hugh for those 3 dmg type to tank even more dmg

but yea iam not finished looking so i dont know if i could use those and not lose some powerful affixes

[teal turtle]

can anyone give a chronic altaholic a good build for end game? Ive made 13 characters so far and have yet to start empowered. Just cant find the right 'feel'
Like most people, i would imgaine, I want big numbers, but Just cant seem to get there. My biggest hits are coming from my spellblade, but not fond of the firebrand spam I have to do first to make it work.
What have been some of your most enjoybale leveling and clearing experiences?

[true pilot]

Are purple items rarer than uniques?

[forest vapor]

no

[true pilot]

Got'cha, do you need to be a certain level for them to drop? I'm lvl 47 and have gotten a bunch of unqiues/sets but no purples

[forest vapor]

yeah you wont see exalted items for a while

low level common uniques drop everywhere and very early, yes

[native sail]

Exalted items start to drop in area levels around the mid-50s (can't remember exact number), T7 don't exist until area level 90

[viral heart]

does ice barrage scale with cast speed?

[lucid echo]

With paladin for sentinel buffing fire and lightning damage....and most of the skills I plan to go have options for either or....is there any incentive for choosing one over the other?

[viral heart]

often it is more effective to focus 1 damage type instead of multiple

[lucid echo]

Well yes, I understand that. That's why I'm asking. Fire or Lightning. I'm not sure what one offers over the other...or if it's just a different flavour of the same thing

Like...is there a reason to choose fire over lightning or vice versa

Haven't really played with elemental damage before since my experience with damage is necrotic thanks to Acolyte

[trim saffron]

Hello is emperor of corpses explosion buged or something i am 100 % sure that i run out of range before explosion and i still die ....

[viral heart]

Lightning has shock which reduces resist and fire has ignite which is a dot. besided those things theyr equal

[native sail]

Electrify updates please, EHG

[lucid echo]

Hmm. I see. Okay okay. Thanks for the information :3

[acoustic glacier]

Ok so I have a Unique with 1x Legendary Potential and a bunch of Exalted ready(haven't decided which one to pick yet). Do I need anything else apart from the Exalted in order to upgrade my Unique to Legendary, and if yes what else do I need?

[worthy plover]

would something like chance to chill attackers, work if you dodge?

[trim saffron]

https://i.imgur.com/SIeuHvS.mp4 i have the same problem Likw wtf 😦

[river drift]

Hello,
I would love to report a bug in LE... but it would need a screenshot (chest that cannot be accessed)... and I don't want to have to create an imgur account or similar to post a single pic for some bug report... it sucks that the bugreport section does not allow for pictures (even with a size limit, which I could totally understand)
What are my options for screenshots without creating a full account on some internet page with registrations and such...?

[worthy plover]

When I look at the bug reports on the forums they seem to have uploads on them

can you not just save the screenshot and upload it on the forums?

[bold oriole]

Hi still very new and im playing rogue,kinda confused because i got the orchirians petals and it says “increased spell physical damage” and i dnt see a tag on my skills tht say spell,can someone help me or explain how this works?playing marksman if tht changes anything

[bright sky]

if I just need general upgrades and my blessings are mostly set, where should I spend my time?

[river drift]

no, they forbid image formats 😦

[twin oak]

you don't need an account on imgur to upload pictures, just click on new post

[river drift]

new post sends me to : sign in

[twin oak]

that's weird, this is where it sends me to

[river drift]

doesn't for me... 😦 send me to some emerald support / sign up

[worthy plover]

can you not just paste the screenshot into a word document and upload that

[river drift]

might have to do that, good idea

[worthy plover]

its what I do to get around things in work lol

[compact arrow]

Hi guys, you know if in the Last Epoch planner the drop location of the items are correct? Cause a rare weapon dropped me in a different echo and IM worried that im farming my gear in the wrong place.

[forest vapor]

how do you mean, if its just rare then all that is determining that is the level of the area

the only sort of 'drop location' is specific item type nodes in monoliths

there isnt really any other sort of 'this item drops in this area' thing doing on

[faint cape]

Rogue does not have any spells, so you won't be able to benefit from spell stats like "spell physical damage" unless you find a unique/set item that can trigger spells for you.

[bold oriole]

Tyvm!!!!

[atomic swift]

I'm looking for Idol Acolyte Chance For Summon Wraith To Summon Flame Wraith. What would be the best way to find this? Just grind out monos selecting those with idols as rewards, and hope for the best?

[faint cape]

When the item database says "timeline to target farm", that is just the best way to target farm, and not really viable unless you're running the level 100 version. Below that, you'll see "random drop", which means it can drop anywhere that meets the level requirement.

If it doesn't say "random drop", then it will probably say "dropped from" and list where you are able to get it.

[candid elm]

Also

1. Look up that particular Idol affix and see what Idol it is available on.
2. Get that particular Idol drop chances Blessing so you get more drop chances.

Example: Looking it up https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/prefixes/AMwRgbEA it's on Adorned.

[atomic swift]

Heh I don't have any blessing at this point!

But ok, yhanks!

[faint cape]

^ Also highlight idols with that affix on your loot filter

[candid elm]

Ah ok, the Idol Blessings are from Fall of Outcasts. But if you have no Blessings at all, then you're probably low level. Just keep playing. It's difficult to get the exact Idols you want, especially with will rolled Prefix and Suffix

[worthy plover]

what is the sweetspot for drops in an area, should it be the exact level the item would start dropping?

[faint cape]

If you are looking for a particular low-level item base like Sickle, then I think you should target somewhere a few levels above its level requirement. That said, you'll get lower FP on drops in lower level areas, so I don't recommend doing this when you want T20+ items, just hit empowered monoliths

For uniques, it's best to use whatever target farming options are available for it

or rune of ascendance if you need a global drop build-enabling unique and/or aren't high enough level to access the target farm

[runic saddle]

will there be a clan/guild system later on? or arena pvp like Lost Ark?

[worthy plover]

I most specifically want to farm Exalted Eagle Wings I don't seem to get many of them to drop normally

the axe itself requires level 63

[candid elm]

If you're looking for more Exalted 1H Axes, you can get the Increased 1H Axe Drop Rate Blessing from Blood, Frost, and Death.

[acoustic thicket]

Genuine question for the devs and lich players.

Is the interaction of illusion of pain and cursed limbs fully intended? Recent info from mostly youtubers suggests it's a bug and they refuse to use it in their crit lich build guides when in reality I think it's intended and with the right skills it becomes strong. By itself the interaction really doesn't carry it.

Just want a simple confirmation that it isn't a bug or unintended interaction like these influencers suggest. Don't want a decent interaction get changed or nerfed making some builds for lich not fun or useable anymore.

[candid elm]

I feel like "directly cast" is not cursed limbs. But what do I know. We'll find out if they patch it.

[rapid viper]

hi ; Why are character names not appearing in the game? but my account name is showing.

[acoustic thicket]

how do i get herald of the scurry ?

[candid elm]

I believe that's just how it currently works. Not sure if they're going to change it at some time or give us an option to display one or the other

[rapid viper]

Is it possible to change the account name?

[candid elm]

It's a rare unique global drop. The base item type is required level 76, so you can find it in higher areas - although Rune of Ascendance works as if area level 100 when used, so that can possibly make one at any level.

If you want to get more drop chances, you can

1. Do Empowered/Legendary monoliths.
2. Do Black Sun timeline and look for Unique/Set Helmet as an echo reward.

Can also get Blessings.

[candid elm]

Yes, here https://support.lastepoch.com/hc/en-us/articles/1260805145850-Account-Rename-Requests

[acoustic thicket]

if i get the blessing can i change it later on for a different one if i need

[rapid viper]

Thank you very much for your interest

[candid elm]

Yes. You would just re-fight the boss and it'll give you a new selection of random choices from the pool of blessing the boss has

[acoustic thicket]

ok thanks

[candid elm]

You're welcome. You can change everything in this game except for your initial class selection and your mastery selection. You'd have to make a new character to change those

[crude jewel]

it says "from all sources" and all effects that relate to bleed now "depend" on time rot... how is "depend" meant if i use taste of blood?

does it mean i have 15% increased chance for time rot, 61% chance for time rot applyed on hit?

and what about the last affix "when you hit a bleeding enemy" does that also mean when i hit a time rot dot on an enemy?

[forest vapor]

hmm

[tacit ravine]

In the on hover tooltip for corruption it says it increases the area level. I know this is for normal monos and not empowered, but how much does it increase? 1:1?

[forest vapor]

the first one : yes, if something would have given ES chance to bleed, that is now chance to Rot

i think it should count for the second, im not sure how else to interpret that..

area level never goes above 100

[crude jewel]

ES?

[forest vapor]

erasing strike

[crude jewel]

ah ok ty

[tacit ravine]

That's not what my concern is, but thank you

[floral badge]

I believe it’s only effects from the skill tree. Bleed chance from the weapon would be converted, but I don’t think anything else would.

[forest vapor]

im not sure what your question was then - the normal mono echoes all have a fixed level depending on the timeline, and all the empowered monos are level 100

[tacit ravine]

Does 1 corruption give +1 area level, or do you need like 10? 50?

[forest vapor]

it gives no area level

[tacit ravine]

The tooltip says it does

[forest vapor]

tooltip lies

unless i am grievously mistaken

[tacit ravine]

Damned dirty lying tooltip

[forest vapor]

where is this tooltip

[tacit ravine]

In the mono web

Mouse over corruption

[crude jewel]

i looked for other skills/nodes and all of them say "in this tree" or refair especally that it works or works not outside the tree, this the only skill i found that says specificly "from all sources"

[forest vapor]

oh wait

maybe you are right, sorry

[tacit ravine]

😂

[forest vapor]

most people dont bother raising corruption in normal because.. why would you..

so yeah i dont know, 1:1 maybe? they cap out at 100 so could be

[tacit ravine]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[crude jewel]

and thats not logic if the bleed chance would apply but the other affix not, if, it would apply both/all or non

[floral badge]

Right. Bleed chance from all sources are converted to Time Rot chance. Effects in the tree that depend on bleed (like increased damage per bleed stack) now depend on Time Rot. The weapon isn’t being changed.

[crude jewel]

there is no "in the tree where you read this?

???

[forest vapor]

thats how this sort of stuff usually works

it affects things in that skill tree

[floral badge]

^

[forest vapor]

it is implied

[crude jewel]

but then it says "in this tree" as i said, this is the only so far i saw that says specifically from all sources

also there is NON node for bleeding in earsing strike

you can shred, you can void beam you can void rift you can increase crit, nothing with bleed

[cunning verge]

For unique weapons, do you need the same weapon type exalted to make them legendary? i.e. unique spear + exalted spear

[candid elm]

Yes, same general item type. Spear to Spear in your example.

It doesn't have to be The Judicator unique Dragonslayer Glaive plus an exalted Dragonslayer Glaive. Any spear exalted will work for that.

[cunning verge]

Perfect thank you!

[candid elm]

And the Exalted item must have at least one T6-7 mod - that's what makes it Exalted - and it must have 4 affixes. Sealed affix is not counted or used.

You're welcome to craft the item before combining. But if you drop it to 3 affixes, you just add another before it can be used for Legendary crafting.

[cunning verge]

Yeah I learned the part about 4 affixes the hard way 😅

[main tulip]

Just cannot find the file. Sigh

Cannot find the ini file anywhere to reset a b c video... any help

[raw fern]

Try this, enable hidden folders: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/view-hidden-files-and-folders-in-windows-97fbc472-c603-9d90-91d0-1166d1d9f4b5

[candid elm]

Try copying and pasting this into a File Explorer address bar
%APPDATA%\LocalLow\Eleventh Hour Games\Last Epoch\

[crude jewel]

@floral badge so i tested it; the bleed chance from the weapon stays bleed and now its even more confusing cause there is no other bleed/bleeding mention in this tree on the nodes besides that one that converts bleed into void... so why is it then there? for what? i am more confused now then before

what i still need to test is other "sources" then this weapon, like affix from sentinel that has higher chance for bleed, other nodes from other spells like shield bash that give enemys bleed and such things

[forest vapor]

the bleed chance convert only happens for Erasing Strike, right

its not for regular melee or other stuff

[crude jewel]

there is no bleed chance for erasing strike

thats my point

[forest vapor]

y.. yes that's why it says chance from all other sources?

[crude jewel]

OH

[forest vapor]

like idols, other passives, weapon..

if all that gives you 100% to bleed on hit then erasing strike turns that into 100% time rot chance

[crude jewel]

you mean, if another source would let me apply an bleed chance with ES, THEN it would be not bleed and would be time rot?

[forest vapor]

yes

[crude jewel]

ah i see ok

[forest vapor]

i guess the idea is convert bleed which you might not be scaling, to time rot which you are scaling

except time rot still sucks afaik so :/

i wish it didnt because i am scaling exactly void and dot

[crude jewel]

i mean 12 dot time rot +100% with ES is big

[forest vapor]

and that would be some nice free damage if it was worth a damn

[crude jewel]

i see ^^

[forest vapor]

the limited stacks hurt, i think, 12 max

[crude jewel]

yea and only 3 sec cd

[forest vapor]

and you cant add any flat damage to it so you are stuck scaling it's base

[crude jewel]

you can add void as you said

[forest vapor]

increased, not added flat

[crude jewel]

and dmg over time i would guess

oh added

[forest vapor]

i've got 500% void damage and it still just tickles compared to abyssal echoes, whcih has a tonne of added flat

[crude jewel]

well ty anyways now i got it ^^ <3

[bright grail]

Seeking thoughts on which is the beter build between holy trail javelin pala or shield throw pala?

[restive wasp]

What's the consensus on Marksman builds in 0.9? I keep reading that Dragonsong and Bowmage are pretty awful this patch. I just hit regular monoliths with a Marksman and wanted to see what others thought

I'm also torn on which one to play lol

[candid elm]

It's super easy to respec in this game. if you want to try them both.

[minor vigil]

i dont think dragonsong is awful at all

build felt quite powerful when i played it

meteor belt is fun too

[buoyant sinew]

Holy trail is a very strong build, I'm not aware of any shield throw specs that compare to it

[restive wasp]

True. Keep forgetting that as long as they're in the same mastery you can easily respec

[silk sky]

Is there a way to change the skill tooltips from displaying DPS to showing raw damage numbers? Some of my abilities I don't care about dps, I wanna know how hard it;ll hit in one go.

[fresh aspen]

Testing on dummy is the only way

[clear seal]

wait, i did two of my ten monoliths on my friends timeline... does that mean although I have 10 blessings i have to go back and do those two on my own timeline before being able to do empowered monoliths?

[split helm]

How much EHP should you aim for to push higher corruption levels?

[blazing stirrup]

Whenever I finish an echo it stutters and the program stops responding...I wait until it responds and I come back dead. Every time, happens more when I'm attacking my melee speed is at 200% and that also causes the program to not respond. Any workaround? I have 2070super with 32 gigs of ram and playing on the lowest settings already

[raw coyote]

what are the end-game instances called in LE ?

rifts?

monolits?

[dreamy ore]

each timeline is a monolith (standard and empowered). the actual instances are Echoes

so 10 timelines, 20 monoliths

[faint cape]

No, you just need to be present for the boss fight of each of the 3 level 90 monos; don't even need the blessings. You do need to touch the blue thing in the island between those 3 monos. If it's not working, try touching all three of the monoliths or completing an echo in The Last Ruin

[barren crow]

What's the best way to scale minion poison DoT? Does straight up Minion damage affect it?

[native sail]

Minion damage, minion damage over time

[barren crow]

Thanks

[empty talon]

How is the multiplayer in Last Epoch? I've been playing offline.

[barren crow]

It's a mixed bag. Sometimes it's fine and wonderful. Other times movement skills bug out, things turn invisible, general latency issues. So it can be buggy if you're unlucky but I do enjoy playing with my friends.

[jovial orbit]

Does extending dot duration keep its dps the same, increasing its total damage, or is it just so you have more concurrent stacks for for "for every stack of x do Y"?

[forest vapor]

the first, damage per tick is unchanged by duration

[jovial orbit]

Neat.

[sullen jackal]

As a Mage, is there a faster way to apply tons of Ignite stacks on a boss than having a Volcanic Orb go through him?

[vernal seal]

Ring of Atlaria seems decent... but difficult to trigger?

[jovial orbit]

have a volcanic orb sit inside them with slower movement?

[sullen jackal]

yes that's pretty much my build right now but I was wondering if I could improve it with a spell change

[jovial orbit]

The shrapnel can ignite, too

[sullen jackal]

yes

[jovial orbit]

It's kinda a silly amount of stacks you can get, #🧙┃mage message

[broken galleon]

is acid fletch a good unique

for HOA bowman

[faint cape]

Don't think so. Multi-hitting with fireball might be the next best thing. Static charges and ice barrage can get you a lot of hits, but I'm not sure if you'll be able to scale the ignites very well on those.

[bold oriole]

so im kinda confused with the monolith system,lets say i complete one bow rewarding echo,how do i get more of those?i see everywhere that you target farm an echo you want but this doesnt let me do it again?anybody mind explaining it to me

[forest vapor]

you find that same kind again somewhere else

you dont repeat the one individual echo

[bold oriole]

ohh

where is somewhere else?if you dnt mind me asking

[faint cape]

Each echo reward is randomly generated when the echo is revealed - if you don't see any you like, you should head away from the center to reveal more

[rugged sinew]

in the same timeline monolith you will get similar rewards
the first one has unique bow reward nodes
if you complete nodes new ones will get revealed, which might be more unique bow reward nodes

[forest vapor]

same timeline, somewhere else in it

when a thing says 'farm this timeline for it', it means that the specific reward nodes for that type of item are in that timeline

[faint cape]

But the generic ones, "rare bows & quivers" for example, spawn in any timeline at random. No weighting to those as far as I know

just explore more to find more

[bold oriole]

oooo okay okay!tysm all!!

[restive wasp]

Trying to play a double Jelkhor's Blasting Knife build and struggling big time in regular monoliths. I just can't seem to survive all that much with life rolled on belt, chest and helmet only reaching a paltry 1009HP. Any advice?

Should add that damage doesn't seem to be an issue.

[rugged sinew]

whats your glancing blow chance?

armor?

also 1k life is really low

are you using any defensive stuff on skills like silver shroud stacks from smoke bomb

[foggy totem]

Is it dumb to ask if there is a way / chance / something to purposefully hunt for glyphs of despair?

[rugged sinew]

glyph reward echos can give them
i've seen it on doors as a reward for killing julra

[acoustic glacier]

Hey so I have a Void Knight and I wanna try some other melee build using either shield + 1 hander, dual wield or preferably a 2 hander, that can facetank pretty well in addition to decent damage since I play solo a lot. Any class, build and/or guide suggestions? Excluding the Void Knight since I already have one 🙂

[rugged sinew]

lightning swipe werebear is p nice

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

[vague badge]

I think I saw that there was a "hammerdin" build but now I cant find it for the life of me, anyone have a link to it? (assuming there is one thats relatively up to date patch wise)

[acoustic glacier]

Oh wow, that is actually the only class I haven't tried yet, the "Primalist" I mean, so that is an excellent suggestion! Thanks 😄

[rugged sinew]

there a couple build guide videos out there like this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HTE5A39rITU

[acoustic glacier]

Alrighty there goes my sleep lmao. Will try both Werebear and Hammerdin :p

[vague badge]

is there a build planner for that? The guy says he has one on his discord but doesnt look like it is anymore (seems like an older build)

[restive wasp]

Yeah, I have Moonlight Bomb for Silver Shroud. Doesn't seem to do anything lol

[rugged sinew]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldu6dvSI-yg this one has a planner

i just searched it on youtube tbh

[vague badge]

sweet thanks!

is there a way to turn off beginner tips when making a new character?

[rugged sinew]

maybe in the settings?

[vague badge]

didnt see any in game

[fickle fox]

I googled and could not find an answer sorry if it is obvious.
I can't turn on V-sync in my game under the graphic options, is it currently not allowed in the game?
I am getting more waves on my screen then the ocean.
I am running at 4k, with all graphics at Medium or Lower at 60 FPS using a 3070 graphics card.

[restive wasp]

Hey sorry I had to go tend to something real quick

I am following Trikster's build guide for Jelkhor's Detonating Knife here:

https://www.lastepochtools.com/build-guides/melee-detonating-arrow-marksman-jelkhors

I just don't know where else to fit health into my builds... This is a recurring issue for me but it wasn't a problem for sorc because Flame Ward and Paladin just gets a ton of health from passives

[rugged sinew]

yeah but whats your defenses looking like rn?
he said the build is a bit squishy in the guide

is your endurance at 60%

endurance is really important

[restive wasp]

Endurance is at 20%

[rugged sinew]

well get your gear together and get that to 60% asap

[restive wasp]

I am struggling fitting in all the defenses when taking into account the need for health and resistances as well

I have %life rolled on helmet and chest, and hybrid health on boots.

[rugged sinew]

the build recommends the endurance blessing

and the phys resistance blessing

getting those will help you

[restive wasp]

True. Sorry to keep badgering you but how the hell do I get more health lol

I have been playing for two weeks and still don't really know how

I've been carried by characters with very good innate defenses but it's very evident now that more health is super essential in this game

[rugged sinew]

vitality is also a very good implicit on top of the % health

health + resistance idols will also help

[restive wasp]

Geez that's a lot of RNG required

[foggy totem]

When creating a legendary:

1. Can any affix go onto the new item, regardless if by regular crafting it wouldn't fit?

2. Does the level of affix have any role in the final product or it's just name which will be transferred and the numbers don't play any role?

3. Is it really as much gambling as it looks to me?

4. Is it really so much fun as it looks to me, just for crafting?

[rugged sinew]

1. what do you mean?
2. it copies the affixes 1 to 1, even the values
3. idk
4. ?

if you have a 41% cast speed affix on your exalted wand
and it gets transfered to the unique wand it will still be 41% cast speed

[foggy totem]

Understandable

Awesome

[rugged sinew]

you can still use them even if they have 0 crafting potential left

so craft on your exalteds before you sacrifice them

[foggy totem]

Makes sense

[viral dagger]

hey guys im a newbie and i wanted to ask if i should do all quests?

or is like main story quests

[pastel pebble]

Only the ones rhat granr passives and idol slots

Once you have all those you're good

[viral dagger]

what are idol slots btw? xD

i got one and cant use it

[pastel pebble]

But otherwise take some time since you're new and enjoy the story

[viral dagger]

stout idol*

[pastel pebble]

Idols are little items that give you bonuses. As you unlock more you can put in larger idols and stronger synergies or cover resists that you are missing

[viral dagger]

how can i use the item itself?

i got a terqouise item

which doesnt fit in any slot am i missing smth?

[pastel pebble]

Yes. You have to unlock those slots via quests

[viral dagger]

ah yes i got u

the slots on the right

i already unlocked 4 slots

ty!

[rugged sinew]

looks something like this later

you'll have to do item tetris to fit the things you wanna fit

[hollow frigate]

Hey guys i'm playing a crit lich build and i'm falling out of reaper. playing a death seal/hungering soul lich build. any advice?

[viral dagger]

yeah i got it thanks !

[rugged sinew]

more leech

also reaper decay gets stronger every second youre in reaper form

so you wont be able to stay in it forever

[hollow frigate]

ah I see. I am running rip blood so maybe I should just cast it more

[rugged sinew]

but recovering more health will help stay in it longer

[hollow frigate]

kk. So outside of death seal just use life leach to get back to full while it's on CD?

[rugged sinew]

yes, you also still leech while in death seal

[hollow frigate]

got it thanks for the advice 🙂

[strong rampart]

How do I get/use reap with reaper form?

[rugged sinew]

your reaper form button changes to the reap button when you are in reaper form

[strong rampart]

Ah, ok, didn't see that

Thank you

[zinc anchor]

Just a warning, items with less than 4 unsealed affixes cannot be used to make a legendary. Even if it has 3 unsealed and 1 sealed, can't be used. So make sure you have 4 unsealed before you get the item down to 0 forging potential or it'll never be usable in legendary crafting.

[foggy totem]

Creating a legendary, does it have to be literally the same item, e.g. scepter for a scepter, or one-handed of any kind for one-handed, or even just a weapon for a weapon?

[foggy totem]

Oh man, you really are helping me, cheers!

[zinc anchor]

Yes it has to be the same, one-handed sceptre for one-handed sceptre, unfortunately 😦

[fathom glacier]

Is there always only 2 door options for 1f->2f in temporal sanctum?

[zinc anchor]

I believe so @fathom glacier

[stuck wasp]

What's the best way to level? Do monos higher level than current?

[spring igloo]

Nothing like rolling a new toon after getting used to +90% move speed 😆

[foggy totem]

Probably true

[ivory otter]

What build would you Guys Play with that? Didnt find any ignite stacker Mage Builds. Not really interested in cold DOT werebear. I like ranged Builds more. Any ideas?

[steady star]

you can probebly make something with the enchanted weapon

make all them ignite go poof poof

[ivory otter]

Uhhh that would be sick. Gonna think about that :D.

[steady star]

Either sorc or spellb

Firebrand tho~~

would fit well

silly stuff like this

[ivory otter]

Never played spellblade so i Need to Look into that 😄

[languid citrus]

Im playing Paladin. Is the Cyclone of War of the Warpath skill bugged? I'm using a scepter to get the fire pen bonus. I'm running Judgement with the node Annoited to make the consecrate ground (CG) as aura. However, when I spin with Warpath to activate the fire pen bonus, the CG damage doesn't change. Is it a bug?

[fringe perch]

does the amount of raw xp needed to level a skill scale like character xp or is it static?

[amber void]

there's any enemy attack that ignores the ward? i got 2shoted and my ward was at half capacity

[clever jay]

is Grand Thirst of the Sun a global leech? like if i stack bleed on something will each tick heal me?

[crude jewel]

if i have points in that, do i make with rive that makes physical melee ALSO void dmg or does this node only increase melee void skills?

[broken galleon]

no, i suspect the melee label works first, so it would be +3 void on your melee attacks

[vernal seal]

With the Eternity Cache level requirement thing, does it only care about the unique level, or the exalted as well?

[amber void]

you mean the level limit for the items?

[vernal seal]

Yes, like if you have a level 2 unique and a level 90 exalted, do you have to do it T4, or can you do it T1?

[amber void]

that level is only for the unique

[vernal seal]

Sweet, ty

[neat vector]

Cold DoT Bear good for high corruption, or is it outclassed by Earthquake or LIght Swipe?

[vernal seal]

For werebear, cold dot is probably your best bet. Just struggles with single target dps, so bosses take a hot minute to take out.

For druid in general, lightning bug (solid damage, bonkers survivability) or bleed swarm (okayish survivability, bonkers damage) are probably going to perform much better. But... Werebear is perfectly servicable, just... Letting you know your options 🙂

[jade badger]

Do bosses have some kind of crazy endurance? Because I usually burst them down in a couple secs and than they get pretty tough

[storm blaze]

They get dmg reduction if you burst them, I think
so you can't just 2hit them

[jade badger]

WHAAAT? So when I get better it wont matter?

[livid shuttle]

I have claimed all 15/15 passive points and 8/8 idol slots at lvl 45 (finished with Heorot questline), so is it mandatory to complete the rest of the campaign? Or I can just abandon it there and no need to worry about missing anything (I don't mind missing +1 all stats)

[storm blaze]

You can 1shot them
and the reduction has limited time it's up

[storm blaze]

You can just go and do monos if you feel like it, sure. The only thing you'll miss is the +1 to all

[jade badger]

Wait. So I start boss fight, burst him to 10%, game decide it's too fast, apply "crazy damage reduction" and after few seconds I can burst the rest?

[storm blaze]

Pretty much, yes. Not sure how many seconds it is but it was pretty jarring when i was playing with Judgement

[orchid nymph]

where would one farm shade of orobyss?

[storm blaze]

monoliths, the nodes that reset the web

[fresh aspen]

You can get to a point where You just 1shot them anyway with best gear

[crude jewel]

iam looking for an list/table with all dots and what kind of dmg they do (element/pysical/ect.) google dont helps me with that, anyone has something for me?

[foggy totem]

Chance to cast void rift on kill;

Under which skill will I find void rifts?

After reaching lev. 90 monoliths: The Last Ruin, Spirits of Fire etc.

How does one proceed to higher level monos?

[lament current]

Complete all 3 level 90 monoliths and walk back to the middle, it should trigger a cutscene

[crude jewel]

well i manually wrote everyone down, but, which dot makes physical dmg? only bleed or?

[safe harness]

Tornado deals physical damage over time

[crude jewel]

tornado is not a dot or?

trying to find a reason if you go on a full dot build why i should use idols with physical dmg over time if besides bleed non makes physical?

[safe harness]

It’s a spell that does damage within the aoe

[foggy totem]

I'm trying to figure these out, because now I have over 10% chance to summon them, but can't seem to pinpoint it really, hah. No idea how it looks, no idea where it comes from, the latter being more important so I can know what sort of damage I'm doing...

[rugged sinew]

Tornado does hit

[safe harness]

No it doesn’t

[lament current]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/skills/void_rift

That may help, has a description including tags and there's a button there to switch to the sources of void rift

[crude jewel]

@foggy totem press alt on hollow orb or another node, not on all it shows the spell but on some like there

[foggy totem]

Understandable, it's from Devouring Orb... okay. Not so useful for me then.

[crude jewel]

it is on other nodes too

press alt, hover over EVERY node of the spell you think it should cast

there are multiple chances not only for devouring orb

[acoustic thicket]

guys xD it was my 1st key 1st dungeon , and it kick me out duo to my shitty wifi , aint got the key no more 😄 how do u get the keys ? 😄

[foggy totem]

Just keep on hunting, they'll come without asking

[acoustic thicket]

soo it is random ? 😄

[foggy totem]

Sure is, but it will increase as you level up

[crude jewel]

you get also on end in monolith keys, mostly arena keys at first but you get others too

[edgy mantle]

Anyone know if the heal on block from Mighty Shield scales with healing effectiveness?

[sterile widget]

You get a key for killing bosses in monolith of fate 🙂

[rugged sinew]

yes

[orchid nymph]

should i keep doing gaze of orobyss when possible after corruption 100+?

[edgy mantle]

As long as you are clearing efficiently you should keep pushing corruption, yes

[orchid nymph]

oh, does doing gaze increase corruption?

[edgy mantle]

so, what do you mean by "doing gaze"?

you gain one stack of Gaze of Orobyss every time you kill the mono boss, then the next time you fight a shade you get bonus corruption per stack of Gaze

it's a mechanic to help push corruption faster

[orchid nymph]

oh, i think i get it

[acoustic thicket]

u know if u in the party does all of us needs keys or one key from one guy is enough ?

[sterile widget]

1 key

🙂

[acoustic thicket]

❤️

[foggy totem]

Okay, just to make sure, is it normal that after two or three echoes I gotta stop and spend just as much time as it took me to clear them to go through loot and make sure I'm not selling / shattering something I'm actually after?

I mean, I enjoy the process, crafting feels great, but just unsure whether maybe my loot filter needs fine tuning, which I also believe would require way more knowledge than I have, for each separate kind of item...

[sterile widget]

Honestly, it sounds like you're still learning about the itemisation system and figuring our what you want / need.

Of course, you can adjust your item filter to reduce the amount of stuff you see to pick up, if you're finding that time is a bit too much

Maybe there's a specific type of item you always just end up vendoring? e.g. non-class-aligned helmets. That could be something to filter out 🙂

[foggy totem]

You can take a look if you want 🙂

I can do a quick share

[sterile widget]

For reference, here's the filter I am playing with at the moment

[foggy totem]

You can check chat #4

[dim zealot]

Okay, im officially bored with werebear. I need a new faceroll that i can mass screenclear with

wtb blizz sorc

[shell niche]

Hi , is there a way to know which normnal and emp mono ive done? i have 14/20 not sure that is that remaining 6.

[worldly pivot]

is there any movemnt skill for void knight that doesn't require a target? Lunge is kinda useless due to so few mobs

[sick yacht]

Shield rush

Or spec javelin

[crude jewel]

it says allies but on smites text it says "if you are in the area you also healed" so this counts for the area not only allies?

[native sail]

Don't think anyone answered you. Cyclone of War is fire penetration for Warpath. Not global.

[sick yacht]

You are an ally

[molten cape]

does multiplayer lag for anyone else? no matter what I do i cant play with a mate of mine whos on Aus server

were both playing on Aus server, when i party with him its a like 1-3s rubber band

[foggy totem]

I use Void Cleave as an exclusive movement skill and with the bottom left movement node, it's explosive.

[worldly pivot]

ooh, that's one i will explore once im back from the ball doctor

[foggy totem]

How do you play your VK?

Asking so I can share some interesting ideas. Since the game is so wide and giving us many options to play with, you can swipe across the whole screen diagonally, cut through everything in between, plant Abyssal Echoes, active Ravaging Aura, leech health and more - all with just one Cleave.

Add Darkstride boots to the mix and now you have another Cleave to cut into a different direction... while leaving trail of death behind, over which the Abyssal Echoes pulsate...

[hollow jetty]

does eterra blessing work? it says when cast on minion it increase size by 20% and damage by 100%

but i dont see any increase in size

[foggy totem]

That's what she said

[desert tree]

that is not true it works with flame burst from holy aura,but in his case the aura from judgement is created when he is not spinning and get snapshotted, so he cant get the pen

[hollow jetty]

shld have seen that coming

[native sail]

Does it? It isn't phrased as global

If it does they need to rewrite that because they deliberately have half of the things on there listed as global and the others aren't

[desert tree]

does not say warpath or warpath hits

[native sail]

I understand that, but the fact that the first two are deliberately written as global and the latter two aren't is a mistake because that implies those ones aren't global.

[cold plaza]

Its global, but remember skills snapshot. Something like the fire aura proc benefits from the fire pen, for example, because it happens while you are spinning

[past dock]

Any way to actually connect to the server?

[strong rampart]

The Firestarter torch is good for what class?

[rugged sinew]

anything you ignite with

[strong rampart]

Spellblade, using firebrand/flamerend?

[main tulip]

Hoe do you fix a shrunk upper right hand corner mini map. I can't get it back to normal size???

[strong rampart]

I think tab

[main tulip]

Tab didn't do anything

[white marten]

Need some help: running L78 cold dot Werebear online
until last 2 days never had rage sustain issue on maintaining Werebear form
All of a sudden, across multiple sessions, mono maps etc, I go from full rage pool to 0/human instantly - on a regular basis
I did not change any passives on anything else I can think of

This keeps happening and is breaking the build

Any thoughts?
Thanks!

[upbeat girder]

Hi! Just finished to build my new pc, installed Last Epoch and... there is default graphic settings and hotkeys. Is there any way to transfer all of these to the new pc? I think "le_graphicsmanager.ini" is a graphic settings but what's the key bindings file location?

[foggy totem]

Is it possible to report an urgent issue live here somewhere? I just finished an echo and I am totally naked except for the idols.

All the items on me are gone.

This is scary

[raw fern]

This is just visual bug, change zone and the items will come back

[foggy totem]

Okay thanks

[white marten]

Any help on the rage sustain potential bug is appreciated

[fickle tusk]

Hey, long time ago (a year or more) I tried last epoch and ended up refundng during Steam's 2-3hr period due to performance - I judged that it'll stop being "rough but fine" in the endgame from watching streams.
Afaik nowadays the game underwent significant optimization changes so maybe it's better, but I'm reluctant to try with the new price (and idk if steam will let me refund ez now).
My specs:
cpu i5 7400
mb gigabyte B250M-DS3H-CF
ram 4x4gb crucial ddr4-2400
gpu radeon rx 480, 8gb gddr5

Maybe someone with a similar rig can tell me how the game works or something

[white marten]

Speed /performance on my pretty new rig is great
new gen i7, GPU that would be top 18 months ago, etc

known issue on slow party transition to new areas

[fair remnant]

I have a question about the End Game Monolith. Cause in POE, you can only get the key/scrolls I don't remeber, you can only enter if you have one and when you die? You lose it.

In Last Epoch, are there any scrolls/Keys that you can only enter one time in the monolith? Or you can enter as many times as you want?

[worldly pivot]

monolith are as many as you want, dungeons need keys

[fair remnant]

Perfect!! Thank you!

[worldly pivot]

right now endgame feels a bit weak, but the game's also not really released yet (i.e. v0.9). It's a lot of fun, but just be aware of it

[white marten]

I submitted the werebear rage potential bug to support - let's see what happens.

[fair remnant]

Will do, my brother told me about this game. We've both played ESO beta back in the day. Soon they'll make it stronger. Not sure if they will do a wipe before the release or not. I'm not worried if it will be wiped. Lease I'll be recording and getting my skills I'll remeber to grab when it's released.

[torn acorn]

When I use a chaos glyph, is there equal chance it upgrades into any of the possible affixes available or are some weighted more heavily

I’m trying to understand how to think about chaos vs rune of removal on a piece of gear that had 1-2 attributes I want and 2 I don’t want

[worldly pivot]

it's a fun game, especially the crafting. It's just so nice to be able to influence what you craft, especially compared to poe (since you mentioned it)

[vernal heart]

any news about cycles ( Aka Seasons) ?

[foggy totem]

Crafting is constant learning so it doesn't matter if you make mistakes along the way, but two affixes you do not want is already almost a certain sign you shouldn't invest too much into that specific item

In ideal situation you want to work on an item with exalted affix you really really like and two others you quite like, for example

[molten cape]

is there a patch coming or something says multiplayer is offline for me

[worldly pivot]

mp is working but servers are slow right now. Tons of lag in EU west

could be just the servers burning up and not allowing you in

[lament current]

Tried logging in about 5 times including several game restarts and a reboot, it just doesn't seem to work

[feral tapir]

keep tryign got myself in just now after like 20 times

[tulip crypt]

Quick question about exclusive monolith rewards... Do they apply only to the Set/Unique drops or do those timelines also have better odds at getting the Rare rewards of specific types?

To give an example, Fall of the Outcasts has Bows/Quivers as exclusive rewards. Is that timeline also more likely to have "Rare Bows" or "Rare Quivers" as an echo reward?

[torn acorn]

I'm not thinking of putting a ton in but I'm still at the point where I dont need a sealed affix for something to be an improvement and so I'm trying to figure out if I have a mixed item that could be good with some luck, if its better to rune of removal hoping to get rid of somethign i dont like vs chaosing it away

Not sure how it is with other classes but for druid, it feels like the implicits on the ancestral crown and garb or w/e the body is called mean I basically have to use it. Theres only really a handful of affixes I need and so Im trying to figure out how to raise my chances of getting to something good iwthout using tooo much FP

[west vapor]

ANYONE have any experience with endgame shatterstrike build

[tulip crypt]

I would say that removal is only worthwhile (vs. shattering) when you're talking about very rare, very specific affixes. For me, Level of Werebear Form is one of those that I'm invested in to that level. I have two different werebear builds!

As for Removal vs. Chaos, I would go with Chaos every time. They're FAR more numerous (at least in my experience) and if the item isn't already really good for you it's not much investment towards the final product. If you get something good, awesome! If not, throw it in the bin.

Crafting will always be a gamble but if you're just looking for small, steady increases for gear progression that is far from perfect, don't worry too much about intending for the item to come out perfect. Just throw items in the pot and see if something good comes out.

[torn acorn]

I have way more removals than i know what to do with at least right now. My thinking was if i need to get rid of an affix, its a 25% chance i can rmove the one and then add the one I need vs chaos where even if it starts at Tier 1 and I chaos it 4 times, it has a 4/Many chance that seems like it would be lower than 25%

and chaosing it 4 times would use much more FP

most likely anyways

Just trying to understand if im missing something there

[tulip crypt]

Bear in mind that even the rune of removal costs FP (though it can be mitigated with Hope)

[torn acorn]

Yeah for sure

[tulip crypt]

I would say that if an item with 3 ideal affixes and 1 sub-optimal affix is better than what you have definitely use Chaos

[torn acorn]

Oh yeah

in that scenario i would chaos for sure

[quiet sandal]

I use many removal runes to farm affix shards. It gives the full amount of tiers. So nice for getting rare shards off items

[tulip crypt]

If not, and you're going for 4 ideal affixes, it might be safer to just throw those 4 affixes in the loot filter. If you're really itching for it you can try the removal method but as Winston said, Removals are mostly ideal for getting the full value of shards from an item

[pastel pebble]

I'll chaos a llt

[quiet sandal]

Obviously good to use Glyph of hope with this as it uses FP

[tulip crypt]

Also worth mentioning that when it gives you something good a Chaos is going to preserve more FP than it uses. Considering how much easier it is to get 3 ideal affixes than 4, just consider it an extra roll for the item.

The Glyph of Chaos is the answer to, "Oh man, this item would be so good if it had just rolled Strength instead of Intelligence!" or whatever affix

[torn acorn]

Actually another question related to that

say i have the 4 right affixes on an item but its a total T16 or something like that. I get one with 3 of the right affixes on T4 or T5 with plenty of FP but one I dont want. It has to hit one of 3ish affixes or else its not better than what I'm using. Are you guys rune of removaling for a 25% chance to hit the right one or chaosing and hoping to hit the right affix on it

I realize theres not a perfect science here just trying to not unnecessarily brick items

[tulip crypt]

Personally I'd do Chaos there but I don't think there's a particularly wrong answer. Either way you're gambling. With Removal you can possibly get the Hope proc but other affixes are already solid so unless you plan on sealing one the FP is almost a moot point. If you get what you want with the Chaos, I personally feel like you will have invested less effort and also probably less heartache when you remove the wrong affix 75% of the time.

That said, if the other 3 affixes are rare affixes you may want the full value of the tiers as shards anyway, so 🤷‍♂️

It's all a matter of how you choose to gamble. I just like Chaos glyphs. It makes me feel like if I brick the item I expected it all along.

[formal stratus]

i followed some levelling druid guide to level 75. i want to try some good build. is there any fast monolith farmer build you guys recommend for me ? meta etc

[pastel pebble]

I'm finding good speed with my Multistrike Smite paladin but it requires the unique for it to function against bosses

[quiet sandal]

Lightning Bug is so fun and easy and fast and tanky

[formal stratus]

this one ? https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/EAL2brdB

[quiet sandal]

That's the speed-run monolith version

So kind of? Yes

[formal stratus]

should i play it or follow other version

[quiet sandal]

Depends on your goals? It's mostly the gear that changes in that vs a generalist version

[stable briar]

what is a good leveling skill for Sentinel i feel like i just hit like a pool noodle with everything >.<

it does not feel good. can't be a "build issue" when it's a new character who is level 20 and it's been feeling unfun since i hit the Ruined Era

[desert tree]

Hi , if I convert smite to void, and then go order of lagon + unbalanced scale will my main smite be void or lightning? Are the lightning bolts converted to void?

[desert tree]

I loved hammer throw or warpath

[stable briar]

warpath is fun until i run into a beefy big enemy

even normal ones take an eternity to kill

is this just a game issue

it's kinda unfun 😭

they have way too much HP or something

[desert tree]

Are you getting as much flat dmg as possible early?

[stable briar]

yeah

but even doing 200 crits on things, still takes a solid 10 seconds to kill a large white named mob. longer on magic/rare

kinda disheartening especially when they follow you around and stay a nuisance

so you HAVE to deal with them

it's not like it's challenging, it just takes too long and it's a snooze lol

[desert tree]

What level are you?

[stable briar]

25 i think not 20 like i said

not in game atm

but this has felt like an issue since i hit the Ruined Era and first fought the big enemies that pop up

everything is so spongy

i'll keep on goin i guess

see if it gets better but the power curve is just kinda weak and no matter how much i improve my gear early game it feels off and i don't feel stronger

[desert tree]

Tbh I haven't lvled up a warpath in a while, but I have started with hammer throw twice and it was very nice

[stable briar]

i deal 300 damage per second with Warpath

supposedly

lol

[rugged sinew]

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

[tulip crypt]

Is that when those big skeletal octopus looking things show up? They're the worst. 1-shot white mobs with my swipe but those guys take an eternity to kill. Eternal Watchers or somesuch.

[stable briar]

it's any big mob really

[desert tree]

Mike is busy and send me here 😂

[rugged sinew]

it's a link to a previous message

[stable briar]

i can destroy packs of small enemies, i spend 5 minutes doing my best impression of a blender to kill bosses/big mobs with high health pools

[rugged sinew]

click on it

[stable briar]

i literally killed the Primeval Dragon with just my hand on the mouse. took about 3 minutes of spinning in place 😂

big yawn

can't die, but also big enemies just slow the game down too much

[tulip crypt]

Do you have a different single-target skill?

[stable briar]

and arne't even dropping anything worthwhile

[desert tree]

Oh thx did not realise

[stable briar]

i mean i do but it doesn't matter

[desert tree]

Do you know for the extra lightning?

[tulip crypt]

I'm not familiar with Sentinel

[stable briar]

rive, multistrike, all of it deals either less damage or roughly the same damage

maybe i need a diff class

but this one feels really weak early game

[rugged sinew]

i don't think it will get converted

[tulip crypt]

Or a stronger weapon?

[stable briar]

i have a 30 base damage weapon

i am not seeing anything stronger

[rugged sinew]

in low level the gambler might have something good for you

[stable briar]

i've upgraded the physical damage affix on it

given it physical damage increase % and life on melee hit

shred armor from Warpath

it's still just O_O

[desert tree]

Flat would be better then increased

[stable briar]

i've got both

it's all good i'll mess with it

[tulip crypt]

Yeah I haven't messed with Sentinel, wish I could be more helpful

You using a 2-hander?

[stable briar]

i've tried 2 hander, dual wield, sword n' shield

nothing really makes a huge diff

[tulip crypt]

My understanding about sub-skills is that they do not benefit from other nodes in the tree, but they do benefit from your base items/stats. In this case lightning would be lightning.

[stable briar]

firmly convinced as an experienced ARPG player the big mobs just have too much HP and not that i don't deal enough damage

i EXPLODE smaller packs

they die in a second

even smaller rare creatures

but anything large takes a damn eternity

and it sucks

[foggy totem]

I don't know if I am too tired and missing obvious things, but do exalted rings even exist, or are they spooks, unicorns, honest politicians?

Has anyone ever actually seen one themselves for real

Or is it gossip

You know a guy who knows a guy whose mother has an exalted opal ring

[tulip crypt]

I will say I've thought this before. Rime Giants, Eternal Watchers, Profane Flesh, they're just regular mobs that you need to stop and hit a whole lot compared to other mobs

[foggy totem]

Try to say something about exalted rings

You are going straight to multiverse jail my son

Gods will personally imprison you right alongside Prometheus

[lyric flume]

Quick question: what do you set your loot filters on in terms of general configuration? I.e: show rare, unique, set and other rares. Or minimal 3 of the checked affixes?

[forest vapor]

i've seen a couple exalted rings, i think

go through a dungeon t3 or t4 when it's ring-dropping day. you'll need to buy another stash tab.

i mean thats mostly garbage because i go 'oh purple! MUST COLLECT' but there is some useful stuff in there.. presumably..

[forest vapor]

in three days, its Exalted Ring Day in T4 Temporal Sanctum : go farm up a tonne of rings there

or if you have less patience - its ring day in T3 in about.. five hours. 5% increased drop chance vs 7% increased drop chance.

actually i think i will go try and farm some more ring bases there maybe, ring crafting is flat out cursed

[formal stratus]

wtf im getting oneshotted by boss on this quest

[jade badger]

Which mono is best to push high corruption?

easiest

[forest vapor]

might depend on your build and which modifiers are better/worse for you

[formal stratus]

that dragon how to dodge first atack

[forest vapor]

the big bomb? run out of the circle, then when it goes off run back in because there will now be a ground DOT on the outside of the blast area

also its a bit bugged so it may just wreck you regardless of if you are out of the circle, good luck.

[formal stratus]

which one should i pick necro or poison

[worldly pivot]

is there a way to see which idol / passive point quests im missing?

[steady star]

Just wanna make sure, DoT from minion does scale my DoT but they can also have a unique minion DoT

[formal stratus]

how to know if monolith echo is slay patron or kind of like that

[tulip crypt]

Those quests have a limit to how many you can benefit from. Check your map page. In the bottom left it will tell you how many of each reward you've earned out of the limit. If it says 15/15 and 8/8 you're all set. Side quests can only reward you with gold and exp after that.

[worldly pivot]

ah that's great to know, thanks! in the meantime i found the lastepochtools site which has a list of quests as well 🙂

[tulip crypt]

Yeah, they designed it so that if you miss a few side quests you don't really miss out. It's a good design.

[worldly pivot]

it is, it's nice to have it a bit user friendly

[formal stratus]

im doing age of winter am i on correct way to empovered mono

[faint cape]

Minions do not scale with any of your stats unless otherwise stated

[faint cape]

Yep, just gotta do all the level 90 ones

[gleaming tendon]

Are there any tricks to getting what you want from rune of ascendance? I want to get some lp on the fragment of the enigma catalyst but idk if theres a certain base or something to hit

[buoyant sinew]

there's no way to influence the result, just have to pray to rnjesus

[gleaming tendon]

its just any catalyst?

[buoyant sinew]

yes

[gleaming tendon]

word, thanks

[buoyant sinew]

though uniques made with runes of ascendance also have half the chance to get LP that dropped ones do

[gleaming tendon]

didnt know if there was some level restriction or anything

[buoyant sinew]

so that will make it a bit harder

[gleaming tendon]

well i somehow cant get any to drop

[buoyant sinew]

nah rune of ascendance acts like a drop in a level 100 area

so level doesn't matter

[gleaming tendon]

I have a bastion and 2 time glass and only 1 fragment

[buoyant sinew]

oof

wish I could swap you, I literally got 5 fragments in an hour when I wasn't even farming catalyst rewards the other day 😦

[formal stratus]

which one should i pick

https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/EAL2brdB ill play this build

[ivory kite]

I'm a bit confused by this node in the Puncture skill tree. It says it Converts poison to bleed from ALL sources, yet when I equip a +x% Chance to poison idol it doesn't convert it to bleed chance on hit. Is it meaning converts ALL sources of poison chance on the Puncture skill tree only?

[spark drum]

Should convert poison chance to bleed chance for Puncture only, so the idol would add bleed chance to Puncture but poison chance to everything else.

[spark drum]

If it's not that's a bug

[lilac radish]

anyone else getting this?

[stark stone]

Yes

[long elm]

down again?

[safe igloo]

Im also getting that. though my buddy is on atm, so if you made it in earlier you are fine, just cant log in now.

[hollow frigate]

Servers are down 😭

[mint sierra]

I have been using Dragonflame Edict, but with all the booms and pops happening on the screen its really hard to tell if the staff is ever proccing its Dragonflame effect....I am ASSUMING that casting Volitile Zombie will proc the staff...is that right?

[lean sparrow]

Back up!

[hollow frigate]

ooh nice thanks @lean sparrow

Does "Shred resistance on hit" apply to spells?

[quiet sandal]

If the spells hit, yes.

Aka, not damage over time

[faint cape]

Yes, any minion skill can proc

[hollow frigate]

Got it, thanks @quiet sandal

[jovial zinc]

Hello, it is possible to drop an apathys maw from orobyss at 50 corruption ? in a regular monolith no empowered ?

[rare bobcat]

so is there a simple guide to loot filters? i found the one in the pin of the first channel but it seems more advanced/complex then my lvl 20 needs.

[tulip crypt]

Can anybody confirm that the bonuses to the Lightning sub-skills in the various Primalist skill trees do or do not scale with bonuses to Lightning from other Primalist skill trees? The tooltips are for the exact same skill but that seems like a thing that won't work.

Actually, this seems like an ask the devs question

[faint cape]

Yes, but please don't

[jovial zinc]

Ho

I guess it going to be more than 100 try ?

[faint cape]

No need to ask the devs. Scaling from one way to cast it definitely do not scale other ways you cast it

It's pretty common for skills to be used in multiple places

[tulip crypt]

And they never buff one another? The node itself reads, "Lightning has increased range." It also has the same tooltip. And that absolutely will not affect Lightning cast from Maelstrom, correct?

[faint cape]

Correct, definitely not

same goes for void rifts that can be triggered by many different sources in void knight

[tulip crypt]

That's a shame but I understand

[dire fossil]

im getting le-51 error, anyone else having trouble booting up?

[tulip crypt]

Next question, does Wisened Claws (Spell Damage per Strength +1) apply only to directly cast spells or is it just not reflected in tooltips? Because I just acquired the node and the Lightning sub-skill did not change at all to reflect the bonus despite having the spell scaling tag.

[dire fossil]

i suspect it might be a steam issue

keeps saying cloud sync out of date

[tulip crypt]

@dire fossil I had a problem logging in earlier and apparently some other people did later in the day but I tried a few minutes after and it worked

[dire fossil]

hmm, im gonna keep trying then

[dusk burrow]

whats a good build to level with for acolyte?

currently level 16

[faint cape]

I think just the subskill tooltips are super jank. It affects all your spell damage

[tulip crypt]

Awesome, thanks

[faint cape]

Also, the lightning cast by rampage is a subskill of rampage (so anything that gives crit chance or more damage to rampage will scale its lightning casts)

[tulip crypt]

WHAT

Every other sub-skill I've seen explicitly states that it doesn't benefit from other nodes in the tree

[faint cape]

Yeah, I had a lot of fun playing lightning rampage, just hurt my finger using rampage in single target lol

[snow spruce]

That's actually an execption, not the norm (I feel like... but that's my perception at least)

[faint cape]

most of them do scale, but yeah it kinda depends on the skill

[tulip crypt]

I'm sitting here in stunned silence

You've completely changed my perception of reality, I think

Okay, well, time to completely shift my build I guess

To be clear I may sound mad but I'm not

[stark jacinth]

so I'm playing cold dot werebear and am level 98, upping corruption and having fun but sorta thinking of what my first alt will be. Any recommendations? preferably something that plays pretty differently compared to my current build.

[tulip crypt]

Yeah, I guess you're right. Lightning from Maelstrom and Lightning Bolts from Fury Leap both explicitly state that they don't benefit from other nodes in the tree but the other sources of lightning sub-skills don't. I just assumed it was an oversight for Crackling Assault. Thank you so much for pointing this out!

[jovial orbit]

Is Mana Arc's mana cost considered its own separate spell or is it part of the cost of Mana Strike?

Makes a difference for Volka's Razor

(And Bladeweaver)

[faint cape]

It's not a mana cost at all, technically. It is mana consumed. Costs are only a part of directly casting

[jovial orbit]

Then it probably shouldn't say "Cost" or have it with the extended tooltip :/

thanks though

[quiet sandal]

I tried this sort of build too, really liked it but I'm excited to try it again when the movement skill issues are sorted out a bit more. Was a bit tedious at times having the rubber banding. Was a very fun build but I wanted a t9 + level to Werebear! Couldn't get enough points lol

[quiet shard]

Is attaching Infernal Shade to a Pyro Archmage still viable? It seems the damage is so much the Archmage dies within just a few seconds. I'm only leve 70 at the moment and his crit is only 12% so it could just be his damage isn't high enough to sustain but idk.

[faint cape]

Yeah, agreed

[sly breach]

If target farming a set helmet in Black Sun, are generic "Drops a Unique Item" biased towards helmets (and/or shields)? Or should I just ignore those and go hunting for just "Unique or Set Helmet" echoes?

[faint cape]

It'll never be able to sustain indefinitely, but yeah if you don't have enough minion health and leech/damage, they won't last long. Also gotta avoid as much damage scaling for your own skills as possible.

[faint cape]

The timeline specific stuff is strictly the existence of those "unique or set X" rewards, but still always good to hit "set item" nodes when farming for a set item

also rune nodes for runes of ascendance

[sly breach]

Can set items be made from runes of ascendance?

[faint cape]

yes

[sly breach]

(I'm specifically farming for Vilatria's Helm, if that contextualizes it)

Alright, I'll go hunting for those two, thanks

[forest vapor]

Viliatria's is about 2.2% chance from runes of ascendance, just to uh temper your expectations a bit

[sly breach]

Do we have a resource for success rates for runes of ascendance?

[buoyant sinew]

https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/ascsim

[jolly shell]

Is Alluvion’s spell affected by global cooldown reduction on gear?

[vague badge]

outside riverbend gloves, are there any other good uniques for thrown weapons?

[sly breach]

Well, at least the staff has a better drop rate, I guess I'll burn runes on that

[rare bobcat]

any ideas on how to remap the overlay if i have a small keyboard with no arrow keys?

[latent canyon]

This game uses arrow keys? Didn't know

[rare bobcat]

to move the overlay map around.

and i have a tenkeyless small

soooooo

[jolly shell]

In key remap there’s move map up down left right

[ornate cipher]

any builds that'd enjoy a physical dot sceptre?

[rare bobcat]

yeah i just dont know what i should remap to.

[latent canyon]

I have never used arrow keys

I just zoomed the over map out

Does the trick for me

[faint cape]

No, only stuff you can put on your skill bar

[deft shadow]

Leveling a summon focused primalist and found "the claw" neck allowing me to summon wolves up to my companion limit. Would it be best to focus on strictly wolves moving forward or is there still value in a mix of pets?

[candid elm]

Up to you and thankfully you can easily respec in this game. If you're looking at a Squirrel build, it works pretty well with just the wolves until you get the helmet

[deft shadow]

I havent looked at any builds this is my first guy so I was kinda winging it. I'll mess around with it, thanks!

[vague badge]

the only thing you cant really respec is your initial mastery choice once reaching EoT

[deft shadow]

cool ty

[cerulean sphinx]

Question, does Poison Damage over time (stacks) scale both of Posion Damage and DOT Damage?

[spark drum]

Yes

[vague badge]

Is this intended behavior or a bug?

[gleaming phoenix]

What happens if you make some bad choices on an empowered timeline, and now are stuck with some really bad affixes... Is there a way to change those modifiers? Or did i just brick that timeline permanently

[pastel pebble]

You either die enough that they go away or you can burn them off by completing some IIRC

[faint cape]

They only last a certain number of echoes. Just be careful and complete a few and they'll change

[gleaming phoenix]

So with enough fails, it'll still contribute towards the countdown?

[pastel pebble]

I think so?????

Don't quote me

[gleaming phoenix]

The only issue is, now i'm getting one shotted because i wasn't paying attention to what i was doing 😦

[pastel pebble]

But if you do just pay me royalties

[gleaming phoenix]

done and done lmao

[faint cape]

Never heard of failures counting for anything

You were able to complete it once with what it has, so I believe in you!

You could always find someone to carry you or move to a different mono for now

[true pilot]

Is there a list that show's like, how good a unique is? As in like, 'this unique is really good/bad/it depends'

Because I keep finding a lot of good uniques and I'm not sure if it is like, a good drop or something.

[candid elm]

Considering that we can buy more stash tabs with the in game gold and the only other gold sink is the Lightless Arbor dungeon, I've just been buying stash tabs as needed and keeping 1 best rolled of each unique.

Also have dump tabs for the LP uniques. Although I probably need to clear those out sometime.

[sterile widget]

Just remember, you can only have 200 tabs, so you will eventually run out of space for your idols.

[zinc anchor]

Then don't keep bad idols XD 200 tabs is a LOT, no need for nearly that much

I also keep 1 of each unique but not because I really expect them to be good, just for collections sake or something

[candid elm]

Same. Occasionally dig through them when leveling an alt

For the Idols, I've started to only keep the well rolled ones. Cuts down on the quantity

[zinc anchor]

^

[forest vapor]

what, there is a stash tab limit? this is terrible news! D:

[vague badge]

lol 200 tabs is insane, if you fill that up you got a hoarding problem to sort out

[sterile widget]

It's an outrage. I demand double. Triple!

[forest vapor]

actually i would settle for a search function which would let you match a phrase rather than just.. the first set of contiguous letters

the fact it also returns search results in the flavour text/ctrl-alt description text does not make finding specific things easy, and with a loot-collecting game like this, to be honest not having an even decent stash search function is a pretty big flaw

[true pilot]

If someone has a monolith unlocked that I don't, can I access that monolith through their game?

[zinc anchor]

@true pilot yes

The stash search function is fine lol, saying it's not even decent is quite a stretch

Maybe learn to organize your stash more too, that could help

Can you get to Spirits of Fire by beating The Last Ruin or The Age of Winter, or do you have to beat Reign of Dragons?

[blissful barn]

how low can an enemy's resistance get reduced with resistance shred effects?

[normal rock]

is closed circuit in lightning blast (the one that makes it chain to you and buffs you) not working atm?

[sick yacht]

Pretty sure you have to beat reign of dragons

[sick yacht]

10 stacks

[flat yoke]

Is there a way to get more "unique item" or "unique staff" echo rewards from stolen lance mono? Normal monos still tho, not sure how much of an effect that has

[sterile widget]

Yeah. I'd like a more powerful search feature so I can be a search query nerd too 😀

[sterile widget]

Yup. Go to empowered, increase corruption, further out from start node 🙂

[forest vapor]

it doesn't have to be regexp just let me type "tier :7" and have it actually match stuff and i'll be happy

[sterile widget]

https://tenor.com/view/science-statistics-chart-data-gif-17263757

This is me finding gear

[sonic saddle]

if you're crafting a legendary weapon does the exalt have to be the exact same weapon type or can you use an item of any weapon type provided it fits the same slots and only has affixes that can go on the weapon type of the unique?

[forest vapor]

no, same base type : two handed sword unique needs a two handed exalted sword, and so on

[fair remnant]

A quick question When you use the key for the Arena and Dungeons and you die. Do you lose the key? Can you go back in?

[forest vapor]

yes, no

it's a one-chance type of deal, both of those

much like echoes, you die once you lose the reward

hence why i would suggest watching videos of the bosses beforehand, just to have an idea of what to avoid and what it looks like

[fair remnant]

Right, I'm watching it now

Pretty good!

Now I see that is possible.

[sterile widget]

Anything is possible, if you can dream it, you can make it happen

No skill spec T4 Julra, go!

[jovial ermine]

Would Entangling Roots now scale with cooldown recovery?

[fair remnant]

Okay, I got the answer that I needed about the key. You die? You lose the key. So I'll figure out how to get new keys 🙂

[sick yacht]

It should

[jovial ermine]

Thanks

[odd granite]

Did someone do the maths of endurance treshold Vs +hp ( at some point the + hp would give more endurance threshold with the 20% base than endurance threshold itself )

[vapid steeple]

Hey all, if I play "offline" I still see global chat. Do I still play on or server or am I just connected to a chat server and play locally? Asking because I switched to offline because of lags all the time and game freezes all the time. Will I still have lags in "offline" mode? Thanks!

[worldly pivot]

no lag offline, only chat 🙂

[sterile widget]

Sometimes chat lags

Best of both worlds 😄

[wooden spade]

Can I play on steam deck ? Anyone know ?

[worldly pivot]

yeah, i do every once in a while. The experience isn't the best, but it's playable

when in party, how far does xp share reach? Do you need to stay within 1-2 screens distance, or can you stay in entry point and still get xp?

[blissful zenith]

What's the point of the extra step for forge items? Why do we have to click a button to move the items to the forge inventory rather than them going straight there?

[worldly pivot]

so they have a "weight" and it gives satisfaction to see your "currency" build up

assuming you are talking about the affixes

[blissful zenith]

Yeh, runes/scrolls etc

[sterile widget]

A couple screens

[restive wasp]

How likely is a rune of discovery to give hybrid health on a chest piece?

[sterile widget]

Rune of Discovery is weighted toward rarer affixes. However, in this instance I can confidently say 0

That affix only appears on gloves, belt and boot

[restive wasp]

Oops

Didn't read the item list properly

Thanks!

[dire herald]

would this node let me shoot 2 lightning blasts each second if I also take the node that it casts lightning blast?

[sick yacht]

No, unfortunately

[distant reef]

Yo. I am new to this game and I recently started playing. Going Lich Hunger Souls build. Anyone know the best guide to follow, so I can see if I am doing it correct?
Level 54 currently. Would really love some tips and what not if someone could take the time to do so. ❤️

[blissful zenith]

I've sometimes seen "Bonus Corrpution" with loads of added corruption applied to a Shade node, but not always. What applies this?

[fallen otter]

I have found a monolith map that drops "Arena Key". Does anyone know what that is? It's my first time in the game and everything seems so strange 🤣

[sick yacht]

It's a catch up mechanic. If you push corruption high in one mono you get bonus corruption to other timelines on the same character

[blissful zenith]

Ah I see, thank you

[sick yacht]

It's a key to get into the arena. It works like the dungeons where you get 1 key for 1 attempt

[sick yacht]

Maxroll.gg has some good guides, not sure if there is a hungering souls one there

[fallen otter]

Oh nice,thanks. Is the Arena and dungeons harder than monoliths?

[sick yacht]

T4 can be and endless arena scales endlessly

[fallen otter]

Endless slaughter for my skeleton army then. Thanks!

[sick yacht]

Np

[distant reef]

Thanks alot

I found a lightless arbor key recently. I am only level 54. Is it worth doing the dungeon now or wait until max level?

[crude jewel]

am i right that there is no buff-dot on an enemy and no symbol above their head if they are blinded?

if there is some indication, then this node is bugged and enemys dont get blinded, can someone confirm or denied that maybe?

[blissful zenith]

It's a gold sink. So best to wait until you have the gold to spend at the end. You can spend millions. Maxroll recommends unlocking empowered monoliths, farming corruption, blessings and gear and then doing dungeons.

Although you can run through it to experience it if you like, you get loads of keys later

[distant reef]

Thanks for that. Appreciate it.
I mean I would love to do it as long as I can considering being level 54. I am the kind of guy that wants to explore everything and do all before I start the endgame 😛

[blissful zenith]

It's a game, play however you want. Give it a go, it's different content. I found it tricky when I first did it at around the same level. If I was to play again I'd save the keys until you're better geared or a higher level, but that's me

If you don't have much gold it's pretty pointless though, as you get to spend gold to improve rewards at the end.

And some upgrades are like 400k

If you do decide to do it the last boss is easy but can be confusing first time round. Kill the branches on the left and right hand side and then light the fires using the special ability button (default D), avoid the adds and puddles whilst the fire lights. Once the fire is lit it will do 50% damage to the boss so you press D again to return your flame thing back to you then light the other side. Then you go inside the boss itself and kill the heart, which has telegraphed abilities to avoid, its quite easy once you see them.

Maxroll has guides and videos

[forest vapor]

yeah this is broken afaik

[crude jewel]

god damn it ^^

[forest vapor]

yeah :/

[crude jewel]

nah its fine ^^

[forest vapor]

had to roll a second, worse, weapon just to have a reliable blind

because that 20% more is a bit too good to pass up

looking forward to that node actually working soon.. ha, ha

[crude jewel]

i mean is it though? its only "increased 20%"

thats literally nothing

imo :S

[forest vapor]

increased attack, more damage

read again

[crude jewel]

the atk speed works cause its not against blinded enemys, only the dmg is

so i understand that node and i see the faster atks with buff

[forest vapor]

unless i am wrong and the idiot, this is always possible, but im pretty sure the more damage is more damage

as far as i could tell in the spam of numbers, my abyssal echoes tick went up by an appreciable amount

[crude jewel]

nah you could be right and the node text - as usual - is not that specific

[forest vapor]

yeah the attack speed buff is just.. there

but when hitting blinded things, yes i seem to get 20% more damage

i can go hit the dummy and screenshot you some numbers if you'd like?

maybe it broke overnight and i didnt notice, all too possible

[crude jewel]

then the buff works and just not the "always" blind OR that is only a guess, since we hit so fast, we dont see the blind dot cause second hit makes the dot finish

but so or so, its not only me that it seems not working 100% right

enough for me for the moment :D

[forest vapor]

.. what?

what blind dot

[distant reef]

Thanks a lot for your opinion. Really appreciate it. And yeah it makes sense what you are saying, I kind of figured that. Considering all that, lets put that aside for a sec and let me ask this. Would it benefit me considering gear upgrades. Would it give me upgrades that would be useful for me continuing levling. If it makes sense? Sorry for mmy bad english.

So you also think maxroll is the best site to use.?I have seen so many, and the same build might have difference in different things.

[forest vapor]

oh

oh you mean on AE

[crude jewel]

yes

[forest vapor]

yeah no i've tested it quite a bit to see if it was me being an idiot

it flat out does not apply blind to things

[crude jewel]

so there should be an blind dot on the enemys health bar, right?

[forest vapor]

its not a dot its an ailment

but yeah, that black and white eye thing

[crude jewel]

yea that i mean

^^ dot, alinment all the same for me :S

[forest vapor]

i mean it doesnt look like an eye to me but i presume that is what they were going for

[crude jewel]

tyty

[forest vapor]

just craft a quick on-hit blind weapon and test it out on the leftmost dummy for yourself

and if AE is already in your build you will start immediately looking for a way to apply blind reliably beacuse that is a free 20% more damage you are leaving on the table else

[crude jewel]

yea iam thinking about that atm, but i wanted even before i saw that blinded buff have blind on my weapon so besides the node i will have it

[blissful zenith]

Your English is fine 🙂 I'd just enjoy the game and do whatever you want. You get so much gear when you hit monoliths (after story) and you just farm those. This is LEs version of maps, if you're familiar with PoE.

Maxroll is a good resource for build guides and guides on monoliths/dungeons. Not sure how up to date it is though. The great thing about LE is its very easy to respec, and crafting is very intuitive.

[crude jewel]

yea AE is in my build atm

[native sail]

(Maxroll is very up to date, it came out with 0.9)

[blissful zenith]

Thank you for confirming

[native sail]

Yeah no prob. There's also lastepochtools for a lot of the numbers (skill damage, minion's damage and skills, item "rarities", that kinda stuff) in game and a build planner for when you feel like putting one together yourself.

[distant reef]

Thats good 🙂 Alright thanks for the reply. Appreciate it so much. I have read the whole wiki couple of times now and watched a lot of videos so I feel like I know the game. Just struggling with the itemisation while levling. I know the guides tells you what stats to focus on. I just dont know when its worth to lose other stats fore some main stats if that makes sense in any way. Maybe I focus too much on that. Sorry if I am being hard to understand.

[native sail]

Just a heads up, the wiki (the fandom one I assume) is extremely out of date. Like several major updates behind.

[distant reef]

I read the epochtools site, is that the one you mean?

[native sail]

Okay that one's fine. That is never behind as it is taken directly from the game itself.

[distant reef]

Awesome. The guides and wikis are very good and filled with information. I just struggle whenever i need help with something that is not in those guides or wiki.

[acoustic glacier]

Stupid question probably, but apart from gathering blessings why would you continue to do Echo quests?

On the same platform I mean.

[foggy totem]

To prove your immortality

[acoustic glacier]

So there are no specific rewards?(apart from blessings obviously) I'm looking for a set helmet on "The Black Sun" and I keep having max stability, wondering if perhaps doing those quests also had a chance to reward the same set helmet, and not just the "Unique/Set" nodes?

[foggy totem]

There are, do you mind jumping into a voice channel quickly so I can explain it to you

[native sail]

The bosses have their own dedicated drops. So you farm them. The other two quests don't really matter much since you can skip them in empowered.

[foggy totem]

Otherwise just press G in game and go to Monolith of Fate part, you will find explanation about corruption and empowered monolith

[acoustic glacier]

Ah I see! Thanks for explaining :)

[foggy totem]

Keep up the carnage

[worldly pivot]

is there a way to completely respec your char in one go, or do i have to unspec skills and passive points one by one?

[sick yacht]

One by one, but for passives enter counts as a yes so you can click then enter and spam it to go a little bit faster

[worldly pivot]

any idea how much it roughly costs to respec 70 points? I've only got like 10k or so 😦

[foggy totem]

No idea if the prices change, but like 225g x 50 nodes

[sleek sluice]

Just before you respec, in case you think you can swap masteries you cannot just to save you a lot of clicks

only cause you said respec 70 points, sounded like a full respec

[stark jacinth]

When someone says T15+ or T20 when referring to a drop, how is that calculated?

[foggy totem]

Tiers of the affixes

Press F, drop an item into the fun socket and it will show you T-ier values

I love this game

[sleek sluice]

4 affixes all t5 = t20

[stark jacinth]

ah okay so its the sum of the afix tiers on an item?

[sleek sluice]

yeah

[foggy totem]

As expected

Unexpected

[sleek sluice]

Have to live up to my name 😦

[stark jacinth]

do items eventually drop at T20?

[sleek sluice]

yeah

not often but happens

[crude jewel]

critical strike avoidance is capped at 100%?

[sleek sluice]

yes

[stark jacinth]

oh nice, what level of corruption do I need before I can expect that

[sleek sluice]

not related to corruption level, but chances of you finding a t20 item with 4 affixes you need is slim to none so prefer them not to be t20

better to have some good tiers on it and able to craft what you need otherwise

[stark jacinth]

gotcha so 1-2 tier 5s of something that is good for me?

[severe fjord]

you actually looking more for T6 and T7

[sleek sluice]

or t6/t7 which starts to drop in empowered monoliths

t5 is just a starting point, so dont waste all your crafting mats early on em, just get some decent defensive some dmg and keep pushing in empowered getting your blessings first

[stark jacinth]

what does corruption affect?

I've got most of the blessings I need except for a few stubborn

[sleek sluice]

Higher droprate of better items & uniques

[stark jacinth]

and i'm at 198 corruption on a mono that drops unique gloves that I need to farm

[sleek sluice]

so youll see more exalted(which has 1-2 t6 or a t7 on em) on higher corruption

and more uniques will drop randomly aswell on higher, and from bosses not day and night just a good bump in droprate depnding on corr level

[stark jacinth]

thanks

[acoustic glacier]

Any decent fire melee builds? Don't get me wrong, I love my little Lich but I'm a bit tired of casting atm and I wanna smack someone in the face with an axe and so :p

[tranquil edge]

does the fire dmg in this helm, affect my summons ? -- ie, does it boost their fire dmg ? or affect thier fire skills ?

[rugged sinew]

No

To affect minions it has to say "minion" in the mod

[faint cape]

Yeah, paladin/FG sentinel and spellblade both

[rugged sinew]

So "increased fire damage" doesn't work
But "increased minion fire damage" does

[faint cape]

if you want an axe specifically though, probably pick one of the sentinel classes rather than spellblade

[rugged sinew]

Ignite or fire Crit warpath is nice

[eager sandal]

does anyone have really bad lag lately?... my game is lagging like crazy even with a 8ish ping

[rugged sinew]

It might be a memory leak if you played for a longer time, try restarting the game

[eager sandal]

i didnt play for a longer time 😅

[ivory otter]

anyone else noticed the "test" dmg?=

saw it for the first time today. never seen that before

[rugged sinew]

Lol

[tight hare]

Ever aince the past two updates my lag has been horrendous

[unreal hinge]

can I somehow import my character into last epoch tools build planner?

[eager sandal]

yea figured..

[rugged sinew]

Not right now no

[eager sandal]

i make the builds in the planner anyway to make a lootfilter..

[faint cape]

Only offline characters for now

[candid elm]

It currently only has support for offline save file imports

If you're playing offline, it's the button on the left side

[waxen pilot]

hello everyone, after 6 days I still have problems with my Pala character, I can no longer open my item chest, no longer click on npcs (give in finished quests / accept new ones) and I can no longer use the teleporter , with another character everything works. Does anyone have an idea of ​​what I can do ?

[vague badge]

what level is it good to start farming monoliths for exp?

[faint cape]

Whenever you are done with the campaign. Unless you just like the campaign or have never played through it, that means as soon as you have all your idol slots and passive points from quests.

[candid elm]

At the point Toast mentioned, I'm usually in the low to mid 40s. The first monolith is area level 58 for comparison. You can go in earlier or later, if you want.

[celest hornet]

hello, anyone knows how to unlock empowered timelines?

[rare bobcat]

so im at the point where im starting to get idols to drop alot. do i just sell these if im not using? leave em? is there something to look for to salvage on them?

[celest hornet]

you should filter out to never see them

[rare bobcat]

see them at all?

sorry im super new, havent even delved into filters which feel overwhelming

[celest hornet]

only filter out the stats you need, example for mana, or DOT

[rare bobcat]

i see. okay. a filter learning day is in order.

[worldly pivot]

are these nodes the only ones that add corruption, or are there nodes that add it without resetting the monolith?

[celest hornet]

it adds corruption and reset all

[worldly pivot]

yes, but are they the only nodes that can add corruption? I.e. do i have to reset my monolith everytime i want to add corruption?

[celest hornet]

i suppose..

[worldly pivot]

If anyone else knows, id appreciate it 🙂

[unreal hinge]

You can kill the Boss to gain extra corruption on reset

[candid elm]

Yeah killing the timeline boss adds a Gaze of Orobyss to the corruption

Having higher corruption in a different timeline gives bonus corruption

[west vapor]

is the Ashes of Mortality ring still a viable ward generator after they nerfed it?

[candid elm]

But basically, yes, you need to fight the shade and reset to raise corruption

[worldly pivot]

so if i do the quests the corruption nodes will add more corruption than if i dont kill the boss?

[vernal seal]

Are some blessings more rare than others? In like 30 kills of the undead dragon thing I've only seen crit resistance once. Not even exaggerating.

[worldly pivot]

thanks!

[rugged sinew]

Write a support ticket, not here in discord

[vernal seal]

A bunch of those have been 200+ corruption too

[worldly pivot]

going one step further, i've read some stuff about empowered timelines but not how i can get them. Do i have to do anything special before "upgrading" a monolith to an empowered one?

[vague badge]

is the arena scaled on player level or is there a certain level i should be to start it?

[west vapor]

once you finish the center three timelines you will get empowered

then any timeline you run after that will give you the choice to empower

[candid elm]

Other way around. Each boss kill on that timeline increases the Gaze of Orobyss. It's something like +8 Corruption per Gaze. edit: 10 first 2 times, then diminishing returns. So like if your do the boss 4 times, you'd have +32 edit: checked and 4 is +31 Corruption from just the Gaze bonus. Killing the Shade resets that.

You also get higher Corruption if the Shade is farther out.

[west vapor]

empowering starts the timeline at a +100 corruption

[worldly pivot]

amazing info, thanks guys, gals, and my non-binary pals

[worldly pivot]

"center three" meaning Dragons, Empire, and Winter?

[mellow oasis]

Why is Shield Rush failing me every time I try to use it in Emperor of Bones after the first evade?!

[west vapor]

and then farming the most relevent timeline for the gear you want and raising its corruption will give you a catchup bonus each time you reset the other timelines based on the corruption level of your highest

[severe fjord]

the last 3

90lvl ones

[mellow oasis]

Like it casts and immediately stops and goes on cooldown

[west vapor]

dragons fire and ruin

[candid elm]

the 3x 90s

[west vapor]

basically ive seen that keeping within 10 levels of your character as not to get exp penalty rushing through the normal timelines as fast as possible to get to the empowered is most beneficial

if you need to stop and farm one a couple times for gear to be able to get through the next then sure but mainly your rewards are gonna start at empowered (so says the noobling)

[worldly pivot]

that's amazing info, thanks! I've only just started doing monoliths so it's all quite unknown to me

[quasi vine]

anyone else experience a rollback on their singleplayer status, i was just past the immortal emperor part yesterday and im back to chapter 5

[candid elm]

The corruption in the regular monoliths starts at 0 and is capped at 50. In the Empowered/Legendary ones, it starts at 100 and has no cap. It's not worth it to farm up the corruption in the regular ones.

[west mortar]

is there an optimal way to farm despairs?

[flat grail]

guys when does dungeon rolls change?

[worldly pivot]

going to work every day makes me despaired enough.

[west mortar]

preach brother

i only have 2 left i dont deserve this man

[worldly pivot]

you're almost there bud, keep strong

[candid elm]

I asked in the dev channel about that a while ago and got a response that 00:00 UTC sounded right, but they weren't sure
<#👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs message>

[brazen summit]

can someone explain this to me? Im switch from shield to shield and sometimes it changes my stats and sometimes it doesn't
