[toxic echo]

The toon you have now can go to legacy and be playable with all cycle content at the same time for the forseeable future

[latent herald]

so in LE the only purpose is the fresh start, not the new mechanic, interesting take

[toxic echo]

As far as the plan has been told to us, yes

[minor vigil]

yeah frankly im not too enticed by cycles but maybe

fresh start is good if you like trading i guess

[sinful laurel]

Or if you...like the fresh start

[toxic echo]

Think thats part of the reason they are doing it like this. Not every gamer wants to restart every 3 months just for new content. This is a decent compromise for everyone

[latent herald]

I mean I have no incenstive to play a cycle if for example i go for CoF - I can just remain on my legacy toons

[sinful laurel]

And you can feel that way. That's the point lol

[latent herald]

do attacks like channeling (laser or spin to win) scale on attack speed? like it "casts faster"?

[sinful laurel]

If it scales with attack speed then yes

Or channeled spells that scale with cast speed.

[zealous tusk]

Whats the most broken build rn? I wanted to try before they fix it. 🤣

[wide sentinel]

vengeance ignite forge guard

or crit rebuke forge guard

cant think of anything more broken than these 2

[zealous tusk]

Hows the clear speed and boss kill?

[wide sentinel]

around 3 months to get to 300 corruptions and probably 20-25 mins boss kills on 400 corruption

havent fully tested myself

[zealous tusk]

That one is broken literally lol

[last kettle]

@icy drift I did it... hp regen gone. 16 potential left xD

[wide sentinel]

well u asked for broken builds

so...

[zealous tusk]

I mean op

🤣

Im playing RM and im at 550ish corruption still doing fine, im not using cfc, been thinking of playing voidknight warpath but im wondering if that build can do like my RM?

[toxic echo]

Most sentinel classes are going to fall off defensively...but it can still go decently far into corruption.

[low coyote]

I'd say the abomination is the most broken and op skill in the game. Just depends on how long you are willing to channel the spell for.

[faint cape]

The VZ sacrifice build is excessively broken until 1.0

[faint cape]

Channeled spells typically only benefit from cast speed on their startup animation. Channeled attacks typically benefit from attack speed.

[lost crystal]

I cannot connect to my online characters, I have tried repairing my install, I have reinstalled, I have added the game to my allowed programs for my antivirus and firewall. I dont know what to do?

[fringe lily]

I'm looking to get my hands on a Box of Hydrae. It's a unique "Runed Box". I have a few Runes of Ascendance... do I need to use the rune on a "Runed Box"? Or will any Relic work?

[candid elm]

Rune of Ascendance gives you one random unique of that base type - that's not a boss only drop. So any Relic will have a chance at it.

Looks like it's a little less than 5% chance for it https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/ascsim

[fringe lily]

Ah, thanks! I hadn't come across that tool yet!

[icy drift]

Oof respect though

[desert tree]

Wow

I would never tried the removal

[bleak rapids]

Hi wanna ask will Last Epoch have cities in which players can be together Like in POE?(talk/trade) etc.

[desert tree]

They are already here

[south wigeon]

guys, I need meta build for a noob to easily clear 100 corruption + farm there

pls lol ⚔️

[toxic echo]

anything in the game with a skill tree can do 100 corr...just pick something. what do you play currently

[south wigeon]

WP VK but slow and difficult bosses

[toxic echo]

you have apathy's maw yet?

[south wigeon]

I just need somehting way stronger with the same level of gear

😉

[toxic echo]

tbh not gonna get much better until maw. that should be more than fine. you doing echo warpath

[south wigeon]

but bosses are such a pain, like the maw boss damn it

do u know anyhthing much stronger then this build ?

[toxic echo]

you have all the bells and whistles...you really shouldnt be struggling at all. maybe more health idols. prolly get some better rings and ammy. just cuz they are purple, doesnt mean some good rares wouldnt be better. coral rings would give you much better implicits than dodge rings

orobyss is made to be a tough fight...but he does have a ton of variants. so if one if trouble for you, pick a different node, likely its going to be easier

he gets like 5-6 skills out of like, 40 or something in his pool

and of course getting your grand blessings will open up a lot of options as well for gearing more health/dmg, but you are in the middle of doing that

[south wigeon]

so basically beastmaster Earthquake will not be better with the same level of gear? for example...or holy trail pally?

[toxic echo]

eh. most builds are going to feel the same that first jump into empowered. likely take you about the same time to reroll a new toon than fix the few items and blessings you could use

builds dont really start distancing themsleves until 200/300+

[south wigeon]

so maw farming lol 😉

[south wigeon]

which is not my case, old noob lol

[toxic echo]

yeah. that gonna be a huge jump in dps for you. just remember if one orobyss is hard, just try another one. they all play VERY different

i tend to avoid the meteor one that crosses the whole map. that one can be hard to dodge. esp with warpath, and hits like a truck

[south wigeon]

YT channel by The Curse is okk for builds ?

[desert tree]

Yes

But by the time you relvl character and you farm your Maw, you would have droped 10 wih your VK

[fiery rapids]

Do I need to start playing with the forge and think of optimizing a build against Lagon?

he is one shooting me

[toxic echo]

prolly shoulda been doing that long before lagon...but yes

[surreal verge]

I hope you have defenses!

[fiery rapids]

idk I was breezing through everything up until now without caring much about the gear

[toxic echo]

yeah, lagon is normally the first real gear test. just throw as much hp, phys and cold res on. lightning too, but to a lesser extent in campaign lagon

[toxic echo]

and once you learn his movements, pretty easy to dodge

[fiery rapids]

my resistances look garbage tbh

[toxic echo]

yeah, the 0 phys is gonna be a problem.

[desert tree]

650hp too

[fiery rapids]

im dying to the constant tentacle slaps, dont have enough potions to outlive it

[toxic echo]

yeah. just go forge a buncha HP and phys res...and if you need gear, go back thru the temple

[surreal verge]

Well, here's your target stats now:
1k or higher health
Physical resist as high as possible.
cold and lightining resist 50%.

He only has one true oneshot, and that's the sweeping beam.

[icy drift]

650 hp is fine tbh just get the resistances up

[surreal verge]

If the claw slam deals more than half your health you have a defense issue

[icy drift]

and learn his telegraphs

[fiery rapids]

the claw slam does like 70%

[icy drift]

the second phase can get hectic with all the waves but you should be able to get it done after a few tries once you get good at dodging the waves

[warm lantern]

Afternoon, I know the release date is 21 feb, but has a time been mentioned yet?

[toxic echo]

no times have been mentioned on anything...tho normally things are done early afternoon central time

[warm lantern]

Awesome, thank you!

[south wigeon]

do you think there is sth wrong with shade of orobyss boss? i have killed him 10 times already 1oo corruption and I have got 10 x siphon of anguis ?

[surreal verge]

Luck issue (Probably)

[desert tree]

The Maw is rare. You increase your chance with Corruption, distance from the center and Rarity from echoes modifiers

[kind hare]

Just started playing about an hour ago, dont want to sound like a noob but is anyone having trouble when trying to use portal?

[desert tree]

What kind of trouble?

[kind hare]

Like everytime i try to port it just freezes the game

or doesn't load

[desert tree]

You might be experiencing a bug, some lag

First step is to verify your files with Steam

If I doesn't fix it

!support

[ripe brook]

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

[kind hare]

Thank you for the help i will give that a go

[native sail]

His drops are weighted and at 100 corruption you have only two other drops in his pool both of which are rather rare in comparison

[delicate leaf]

I'm playing with a friend in a party. Somebody tell me why exactly I am thrown out when trying to teleport to another location? Someone else is playing normally in a party.

[shy ore]

Are bows supposed to be as inaccurate as they seem to be, I feel like I can often miss 3 or 4 times in a row with my mouse over the target?

[sinful laurel]

It's not the bow, it's likely the skill. What skill are you using?

[shy ore]

the one the does a number of fast fires, the early one

Flurry

[desert tree]

Yeah, unfortunately it's bugged

[quartz blaze]

pretty much every major patch is 12PM EST, so going to assume its the same here

[south wigeon]

lol, another 5 kills, this time 4 x ring and 1 x boots, so a total of 14 rings and 1 boots

absurd.

[toxic echo]

unfortunate rng

[native sail]

This is pretty normal. Push to like 300+ if you wanna see some variance.

[south wigeon]

my spec is too weak.

100 is ok

it should drop at 50

so basically Im wasting my time on this spec framing 100 corruption

[toxic echo]

really no reason to farm on normal when you can on empowered. and you can farm the grand blessings in empowered, get better xp, and better gear.

[sterile bane]

@south wigeon are you farming in normal or empowered??

[south wigeon]

empowered

100 corruption

[dense root]

100 corruption is way too low for effective farming yeah

(also if your build struggles at 100c it probably needs to be adjusted in some way)

[sterile bane]

Totally agree with above

[south wigeon]

i mapp ok

bosses tough

so at 1oo i will not get it?

[toxic echo]

did you get rid of those dodge rings and copper ammy from this morning?

its possible at 100. you just hittin some bad rng

[south wigeon]

I did not get any good coral bases

but i switched a feww around ansd better now

[toxic echo]

did ya crack 2k hp yet?

[south wigeon]

1816 😦

[toxic echo]

oof

[south wigeon]

yeap, a friend to9ld me I should go beastmaster earthquake or runemaster fros claw i guess

with the same level of gear he says it will be way stronger

100 will be a breeze

is that correct?

[toxic echo]

gonna give you the same answer i gave ya this morning. by the time you reroll and gear a new toon to empowered, should be able to fix your gear and get the blessings you need to make your current build work for 100 minimum. the first jump into empowered is hard for lots of builds/newer players. you are running (least this morning) dodge rings, a copper ammy, and had nearly no hp idols. just cuz they are purple items, doesnt mean they are going to be better for you.

[pastel pebble]

Yeah, the first time jumping from normal to empowered is always a rough patch

[south wigeon]

frostclaw runemaster 😉

has it been nerfed lately?

[little veldt]

is this something that I would have to craft?

Also is there a website that has crafting recipes?

[surreal verge]

Recipes?

[little veldt]

to like craft certain items

[sinful laurel]

It doesn't really work that way

[toxic echo]

the only "recipe" is for a unique crown. everything else you craft by adding shards. really arent recipes here

[sinful laurel]

You craft ON items

[little veldt]

hmm, i might have to watch a video on the crafting system

[sinful laurel]

I would recommend it

There are several good ones

[little veldt]

Seems essential to get good gear

[toxic echo]

yup

[sinful laurel]

The crafting is definitely essential to the gameplay loop

[little veldt]

is there anything you can't craft besides idols?

[toxic echo]

that particular wand needed to drop as exatled(purple affix). and likely had a few other good affixes. but it was definately crafted on

[sinful laurel]

I mean you can't "craft" uniques

But you can modify them in certain ways depending on the unique

All other items are able to be crafted upon except idols ofc

[hybrid fractal]

are crystal swords an unusually rare base type to find? pretty sure ive only seen one exalted so far across maybe 10 or 15 empowered mono boss kills

[warm yew]

You may have your filter tightened down a bit too much - they're as common as the other base types of that level.

[hybrid fractal]

just bad luck then, thanks

[loud vine]

for some reason my sentinel can't continue in early game - cannot dispel barrier

any thoughts?

[south wigeon]

you are right guys, 1oo coruption is bad for farming. 20 runs - 19 rings, 1 boots....EDIT: 25 kills - 24 rings, 1 boots 🤣 🤣 🤣

[golden hatch]

Hi all, general question about respec'ing skills. I am following a void knight guide that says to respec hammer throw as soon as you unlock devouring orb. When I clicked on "Despecialize Skill" however, I did not receive any additinoal skill points to invest into devouring orb. Was I supposed to get those invested hammer throw points back? If not, then what is the point for respec'ing it?

[sinful laurel]

You get a base number of skill points based on your level, 10 max.

The rest you have to earn back

[golden hatch]

So then there is no point to respec the first skill?

[sinful laurel]

If you aren't going to use it then there is

[golden hatch]

Oh I follow now. It is just about freeing up that space.

Thanks for the info

[sinful laurel]

Mmhmm

[scarlet wren]

As a completely new LE player (not new to ARPGs) - if i wanna do some spin 2 win (seems like Echo Warpath Void Knight is fun?) on my first ever character. Is there any specific "leveling guide" or something i should pay attention to? I learn best by following guides in the beginning till i feel comfortable

[next shore]

are there any concrete plans on improving set items?

[toxic echo]

There are some leveling guides on maxroll (im sure there is a warpath guide on there). And if that fails, there is an older one that should still be on lastepochtools from mcfluffin that should still be pretty decent

[toxic echo]

Nothing concrete other than the devs know they need help and have said they will get it

[scarlet wren]

Thanks 🙂

[zealous orchid]

kind of annoying that ive gotten conflicting information from devs about cycles

the first was in Nov when the devs told me that everyone would get access to the cycle content weather or not they make a new character. even legacy characters

now someone asked the dev on stream yesterday about that question. he said that only characters that make a new class for that cycle will get that contnet

[scarlet wren]

Have you tried the ask the devs channel?

[toxic echo]

what time in the stream was it? cuz the devs (mike included) have been very consistant in that cycle content will go to both legacy and ladder. they dont want two different versions of the game, and dont want to force people to play cycle if they dont want to.

[zealous orchid]

i just saw it here tbh

https://youtu.be/WxGtFJblMAk?t=195

[toxic echo]

think you slightly misunderstood what mike said in that clip. he was specifically talking about losing characters and losing items, and leaderboards.

the question that was asked was "what will happen to our current characters once 1.0 launches? Can we still continue to play on them?"

which he responded "just like all the other arpgs, they move to a "legacy" cycle."

Which is true. but he never once talked about limiting cycle content. which they are not. both legacy and the current cycle will be the same.

[toxic anvil]

does arena give anything worthwhile?

[toxic echo]

there are some uniques that you can only get there. other than that not really

[toxic anvil]

😭

[toxic echo]

really just there for cycle leaderboards

[toxic anvil]

i keep reaching emp monos and im like well shoot not much is gonna change after this 🤣

[toxic echo]

yeah. i mean if you just need a break from mono grinding...arena and dungeons are still fine...you can still get xp and loot.

[toxic anvil]

i mean the crafting is so nice that I dont really feel like I have to grind for loot LMAO

and monos are just "here let me slide this multiplier up"

[chrome loom]

dumb question, is there a way to scrape the damage output by skill in the game logs somewhere?

[cyan trench]

Which bow is better for detonating arrow? on the skill tool tip the dps is lower forr the unique bow but wondering if the chance for it to cast twice is better? idk

[cyan trench]

I decided the exalted item is better, I guess if I would find the same unique with potential of like 2 to 3 would make it better if I transfered some mods over from said exalted item.

[ionic crown]

trying to unlock empowered monos but its saying 2 of my monos are locked

what am i doing wrong

nvm

[quartz blaze]

click the object in between the last 3 monoliths

theres a rock platform with an orb thing on it

[fiery rapids]

Which class is supposed to use the legendary gloves on the right?

[remote quarry]

can someone send me the most recent update roadmap please?

[daring pilot]

is the game down

[surreal verge]

None, it's build dependant,.

[icy drift]

They're fairly viable for a ton of builds, and if they roll the correct affixes can easily be bis damage wise for some builds

[shy ore]

It is still not that easy to fixed a bricked monolith if you take modifiers you just can't handle?

[icy drift]

Yeah you just gotta do echoes until they run out, you can reroll echoes to have a quick and easy objective or do the quest echoes

It's practically impossible to literally brick a mono because of the nature of the mods that we have right now, but it can become extremely painful to get rid of them if you're at high corruption and took something like 500% increased damage

[marble zodiac]

sorry if this was asked before. if playing with someone else and applying the same debuff from different characters (i.e. bleed) - is the damage calculated for each characters stack separately, or the stack damage is averaged, or... ?

[icy drift]

Seperate

[native sail]

Separately. Your bleeds are your bleeds, their bleeds are theirs.

The visual indicator for the stacks is totaled but damage is calculated separately.

[marble zodiac]

thanks!

[marble zodiac]

so often I enter a zone back where i just came from... is there no way to cancel this travel? or disable the automatic travel?

[icy drift]

nope

they're planning on improving it so it's harder to do that though,we don't know the details but they've said they have a plan

[random isle]

When was the factions update? Also last year there was a bug with certain necro skills having the wrong damage, was that fixed? Sorry I haven’t played in a very long time!

[surreal verge]

1.0, feb this year

[random isle]

Cool which February?

[native sail]

This year?

[surreal verge]

21st feb I think

[sinful laurel]

This year?

[surreal verge]

If you meant necro skills part, Idk what you're talking about, there isn't a necro skill damage type bug

[random isle]

Thanks

Do saves carry over or is it a wipe kind of thing?

[desert tree]

Saves carry over

But you will be in a "legacy" mode

Cool. Last year I had a lot of loading time bugs but I think that was my HD, got an ssd now so hopefully that fixes that along with new optimisation

do I have to have corruption 1oo or more to farm this:

It's a world drop so no

Just farm the staff mono

And hit nodes

its Lance echo

okk, will do

thankl you

How is controller support looking atm? Smooth and working?

[south wigeon]

first good news after damn farming for Maw...

I already got it in my stash 😄

[toxic echo]

better than what it was, but not super awesome yet. should be better at 1.0 release in feb tho. its on their list of things to do. aiming things are still a bit iffy from what ive heard.

[summer totem]

Is there a drop rate bug? Because when I play with my Necromancer I get the most generic items ever and none of them even have one minion stat. When I play my Void Knight all I get are Necromancer items, and even better unique drops

[surreal verge]

It's called "luck issue"

(No it's just RNG fucking with you, the only weighting is item base type, eg. only sentinel armour and helms as sentinel)

[desert tree]

The weighting does not impact uniques

[summer totem]

i get the RNG fucking with me, I played D III, but at this point is just cruel

[summer totem]

does your summon skeletal mage sometimes forgets to summon the fire or any other type of mage?

[surreal verge]

It's apprently ALSO rng.

(Take the node that locks all the other kinds if you're only planning to run one type)

[summer totem]

one hour ago it summoned normal mages and then transformed them one by one into pyro ones

now nothing

[surreal verge]

Check skeletal mage's alt text

As far as I know it's supposed to summon the mage types randomly

[eager galleon]

Does party scaling apply if your not in the same zone

[desert tree]

Iirc its applying dynamically with the number of people in the zone

So no

[vale thistle]

Is critical trajectory on static orb a multiplier, or additive with other sources of crit multi? It says "deal more damage" but doesn't explicitly say it's a multiplier like storm conductor does.

I'm assuming it isn't, but can't test it myself yet.

[random isle]

guessing leagues will be similar to poe where they have themes and last +- 3 months?

[native sail]

Yup

Called cycles here though

[random isle]

fair

hope it catches on with the playerbase and all.

[toxic anvil]

i assume additive

since its just adding a % to the crit multiplier

[minor vigil]

big difference is that "league" content will also be in "standard"

so there is no content difference between cycle and permanent

[golden hatch]

Is there some shortcut to the crafting bench, or is crafting just not available at many towns?

[desert tree]

F

[golden hatch]

thanks!

[desert tree]

Do you have a screenshot of the node?

[wide sentinel]

its just additional crit multi

bottom text always over the top one

I've just arrived to the monoliths for the first time

any advice?

is this like a general wiki for all Arpgs?

[wide sentinel]

its not a wiki

its a guide center

They won't/can't punish you for doing stuff in offline but they don't want it being spread in the server or chat.

I am having trouble with the Lightless Arbour dungeon at level 30. I am running a Hammerdin build. Any tips on completing this dungeon? Its the poison and screeching abilities that are killing me.

best advice is dont do it if you are lvl 30

there is no point doing dungeons while leveling

Gotcha

You can use them to skip parts of the campaign but that requires a more kitted out character that can handle ir

[golden hatch]

I'm going through my first echo run, and the shade boss is kicking my ass. If I farm some of the other echo nodes on that path to further level up, would those additional echos also make the same shade boss harder due to additional modifiers?

[faint cape]

They could, or they could make it easier. The Shade's difficulty largely depends on the modifiers it has, so running some with easy mods to drop off difficult mods will make the fight easier.

[low coyote]

I assume in this case you add the 2 chances together 19 + 10% so that you have higher chance. What about completely different chances, say you have that one above, but you also have chance on kill or chance when hit. Do all of them share the same 1 second CD?

[faint cape]

Yep, chances add. Different effects have their own timers.

[distant compass]

does this work like 15 stacks of any bleed/poison, or can be 15 of bleed for 90%dmg and +15 of posion for another +90% as well?

[surreal verge]

The former.

[cedar locust]

Hi there! Were you able to fix this?

[raw forge]

Hello! I have an issue with the loot filter I can't seem to figure out. Would this be the right channel to ask for help with it?

[cedar locust]

Yep! What's up?

I'll try my best to help!

[raw forge]

Thanks! I've set up my loot filter with 3 filters for idols:

1. Recolor only ornate Acolyte idols with the one affix I want
2. Recolor any idol of 2x1 (or bigger) that drops with both %health and +health
3. Recolor any idol that has at least one either %health or +health
   And I can't seem to get these to work. Maybe my order of things isn't working?

[cedar locust]

Loot filter rules work 'in order' so anything higher up, overrides rule below it. Your 'recolour only' rule might be the issue here

[toxic echo]

make sure you are marking idol affixes and not normal ones. there is a serperate section for idol affixes

[raw forge]

Should I put that in the bottom?

[cedar locust]

Eagles advice is good too!

[raw forge]

Oh, I didn't realize those were different. Let me try.

I think that was it! I didn't realize I need to go down to idols and pick "general".

It's not very intuitive but I'm glad I asked. Thanks a lot!

[cedar locust]

Yep, Gear affixes and Idol affixes are separate categories, glad Eagles was around to help!

[toxic echo]

totally have never done that before, i swear 🙂

[cedar locust]

The true fix for loot filter issues is to just never use one

[raw forge]

I'm looking at the in-game guide. Should the devs add a line for Idols explaining their affixes are not the same?

It just says Idols have a prefix and a suffix, but doesn't explain "These are not the same, they have their own list".

That's what threw me into a loop.

[toxic echo]

can always throw it into #1123698164503949392

[raw forge]

I'll go do that.

Thanks again!

[cedar locust]

And I'll go log that post!

[icy drift]

Don't trust Ave for help on filters

[cedar locust]

I can help with the technical side of things, but the building? Yeah, don't listen to me xD

[toxic echo]

i wasnt gonna call Ave out like that, but I did stay in disc for a few extra minutes to make sure

[cedar locust]

I am upfront about not using, so not being able to offer build advice on, loot filters! I wait for everyone else to answer those questions 🤣

I know about Rule Order, Idol Affix List and the Alt+Z/X keybinds

[pastel pebble]

Its somehow worse that you know how but don't do it

Like wittingly committing a sin makes it worse

[cedar locust]

Considering I have to be mostly professional, I have to make my own fun in here, okay?

[pastel pebble]

Averielle begins with A, so does The Adversary

Therefore Ave is the devil

This server is Hell

[cedar locust]

Awww, thank you for the compliment! It's always nice to be compared to your Heroes.

[pastel pebble]

You're not the Miltonic Satan but the medieval one with goofy butt trumpets and going "heehee hoohoo" as you tell people to commit tax fraud and mix fabrics

[cedar locust]

I specialise in Shenanigans

(genuinely can't breath right now though xD)

[thin elk]

If i had 100% cooldown recovery, does that mean my skills have in cooldown?

[thin elk]

No*

[toxic echo]

no, means they are basically cut in half

[thin elk]

Ah okay thanks, so its Not possible to reduce a cooldown to 0?

[toxic echo]

not really. some skills you can add/remove cooldowns...and some skills if you get it low enough and its duration is long enough its effectively no cooldown. but for what i think you are asking, no

[thin elk]

Ok thx 😄

[sleek cypress]

If you have a necrotic spell, and you get 10% increased necrotic damage, 20% increased spell damage, would those both be multiplicitive with eachother or additive? I.e. would total inc dmg be 30% or 32%?

[faint cape]

You would need infinite cooldown recovery speed to remove cooldowns, so not possible. Skill specialization trees may have means to alter/remove cooldowns directly, though.

[native sail]

Increased is always additive, more is multiplicative

[faint cape]

All increased stat modifiers are added together, so 30%.

[sleek cypress]

thx

[olive horizon]

hey guys, in late game, which stat is better on ring:

• Spell/elemental gamage
• Or Inteligent
  thanks

i wongder which prefix is better for this ring?

[faint cape]

It depends on your build. A % damage affix will give you more increased damage, but the int will give you ward retention. Some things gain additional benefit per int, which can make the int significantly better depending on the effect.

Elemental DOT affix also gives significantly higher damage

[olive horizon]

will inteligent give you dame penatration?

[faint cape]

If you have some effect that makes it do that, yes - I don't know of any that do

[olive horizon]

I'm still blasting throug 300 corruption without anyproblem, but i feel like im lacking dmg vs the Shade

I already have penatration on amulet

which stat do you think i should improve?

[faint cape]

If you're looking at min-maxing to squeeze more damage out, the best way is with a spreadsheet tbh. It's hard to get super specific without knowing what your build is, but there's a good chance that the penetration affix on your amulet isn't pulling its weight (they tend to have such small values that increased damage in its place is still better despite diminishing returns).

[olive horizon]

thanks for the info. This is my first character and i notice that only amulet have penatration. I thought that its super importance.

I dont care much about min-maxing.
People say i should build a character that can farm comfortable at 350 corruption, so that where i'm aiming for

[surreal verge]

It is. But not with equipment.

[olive horizon]

I just have no idea wich stat i should aim for

[surreal verge]

Most of peneration is from skills themselves, debuffs, or passives.

[olive horizon]

so penatration from amulet is kinda useless huh

for gear i just try to craft exalted item with useful stat. Is that a bad idea?

or should i focus on making legendary item?

[faint cape]

Nah, I think that's exactly what you should be doing. Legendaries are nice, too, but getting a good unique with a good amount of LP is extremely rare. If you have uniques that you do use or enable your build, yeah getting some LP on those is a direct upgrade, but ddepending on the unique can be really tough

[olive horizon]

Should i put electric dmd or inteligent on this ring ?

[lone stump]

is there a way to test dmg vs rare enemy or bosses?

like on a dummy

[pastel pebble]

There are dummies for that

[surreal verge]

The best dummy is one that is treated as an enemy. No rare or boss specific ones

[pastel pebble]

In Divine Era up on the upper part of the map

[surreal verge]

(I don't know the use of a rare dummy, since rares inherently don't have much difference from a normal enemy)

[lone stump]

because theres dozens of things that only increased dmg vs bosses and rares

like throne of ambition

[surreal verge]

The boss one makes sense yes, but the rare one is ehhh

Anyway #1123698164503949392

[lone stump]

and on hit effects, etc

[rare loom]

any gfn players?

i cant play last epoch

[distant vessel]

hey. im new to the game, picket it up since it launches soon. i have 7k hours in poe and would call myself a vet in poe.
one thing i like is the freedom, does last epoch has the same freedom?
i have seen many defenses come from stats. so i cant scale the damage with a defense i like? imagine i like to scale evasion as a mage, this is not very supported or?
or am i wrong?

[surreal verge]

You could, but LE relies on both gear and passives in about 1:2 ratio.

It wouldn't be as effective, or not at all depending.

And LE is better with needing multi layer defenses.

[dense root]

you can scale evasion as a mage (and having at least a little evasion is fairly strong) but it’s not like poe where you can path to evasion passives by just going through a couple extra travel nodes

so the investment required to scale evasion effectively is much higher and the ceiling on your evasion is going to be lower than on classes that have built in access to evasion

[distant vessel]

hmmmm, hope they change it to a bit more freedom later.
has hoped i can customize characters very well since thats what i have seen but if you cant even customize basics.... mhhhh ;/
but ty

[surreal verge]

Well, we dont have a passive forest, each class has their own thing.

[toxic echo]

you can do anything. its just not going to be as good as what the class is designed to do

[native sail]

EHG wants classes to have a bit more cohesive identity, which is why things aren't as loose as PoE.

[surreal verge]

Nothing is stopping you from trying, but some classes WILL be better at some things than others.

[distant vessel]

you can do anything its just not good is not a good argument ^^

[surreal verge]

Eg:Mage will always be better at ward/energy shield because their passives support it.

[native sail]

I don't think it was an argument?

[surreal verge]

Rogues will always be better at dodge.

Sentinel will always be better at blocking.

And yet you see rogues and mages using shields here and there

[native sail]

With the exception of the funny insect

[surreal verge]

I didn't mention primalist KEKW

I'm using the basic trio as the example

[native sail]

Fair

[distant vessel]

mhhhh, i will see how it plays out.
how is the hardcore atm? how long after dc handles the server a dc?
in poe its 6 seconds after real dc. how is it in last epoch? does anyone know?

[surreal verge]

Not a HC player, sadly can't answer that.

[distant vessel]

yeah. i dont have the worst but also not the best net.
in poe max block aegis always save the day XD

[soft osprey]

I almost want to say almost instant

Cause of how PoE keeps rubberbanding me when the lag is bad

It's obviously checking server values first

[distant vessel]

yeah, poe handles this things very bad.
poe2 will have a server save after dc. im kinda hyped.

[toxic echo]

people building ward on primalists rogue and doing amazing. like you can do anything. nothing is really stopping you. I am doing a void minion forge guard. anything is possible, its just not going to be as easy.

dc's can be weird. sometimes i get stuck with - ping and have to relog the whole client. and its a EA game, HC in EA games come with their own risks

[soft osprey]

I'm just going to treat LE as a casual ARPG, have my fun and be done with it

probably tide me over until the new Grim Dawn Expansion.

[distant vessel]

but the question is will scaling other defenses then the main defense be worth compared to just more main defense. thats what i was afraid of because it would be boring if there would be only 1 viable playstyle and rest is more or less trolling

[surreal verge]

Too bad!
LE is a multi layer defense game.

[toxic echo]

100% more than 1 viable playstyle for builds

[soft osprey]

Yep

[surreal verge]

So you're almost incentivised to run an extra defense layer that isn't perfect.

[native sail]

You can't just scale one defense and call it a day, you kinda have to use multiple

[distant vessel]

very good, thats what i hoped it is

[soft osprey]

More like D2 really and I suppose PoE as well

need those max resists and shit

more important to buff out defense too, then ramp up damage

[surreal verge]

Health? Always needed.
Resist? Always needed.
Endurance? Always needed if not running ward.
Ward? If you can scale retention it's free ehp!
Etc etc.

[native sail]

Just don't be a Sentinel

[soft osprey]

Why's that?

I just started a sentinel

Wanted to try a forgeguard.

[surreal verge]

Block? Hey if you can hit 30% chance it helps!

[surreal verge]

Ohno

[soft osprey]

I wanted to try shield throw 😦

cause I found a sexy shield.

[surreal verge]

Dodge? RNG funny 0 damage

[distant vessel]

and this warlock/dot class will come when?
have seen they plan it but is there a fixed release?

[surreal verge]

1.0

[native sail]

They have basically stunted defenses compared to other classes. FG has access to the most defenses and is technically one of the strongest classes in the game but it is VERY clunky.

[surreal verge]

Feb.

[toxic echo]

FG isnt great. lol

[distant vessel]

ty

[soft osprey]

How's Javelin Sentinel?

[surreal verge]

Not a main skill sadly.

[soft osprey]

I also found some thunder jav, and wanted to try that at some point

sigh

[native sail]

Uh... Holy Trail, great. Anything else, iffy.

[toxic echo]

depends on which jav you wanna play. can be good in certain situations

[surreal verge]

Eletrify or holy trail is good

Otherwise mid

[soft osprey]

IF LE is going to release weird weapons/etc, they need builds that can use em 😦

[native sail]

That weapon is kinda a temporary fix for farming for better electrify Smite gear

[surreal verge]

FG is SUPPOSED to support throwing

FG's passive tree just sucks

[native sail]

Like, I've used it and it's fine but sceptre/shield or catalyst is better in the long run

[pastel pebble]

Anvil 😭😭😭

[soft osprey]

Any chance some treees will get redesigned?

I heard Shaman is getting redesigned, is that from a passive tree?

[surreal verge]

No timeline, but yes.

[soft osprey]

or is that skills?

[surreal verge]

Both as far as we know

Depends on what the devs want to do

[toxic echo]

also keep in mind the answers you are getting on here are from people that have played a ton...so when we say "iffy" you can still easily get into 200 corr (which is where you unlock that last item) with a lot of the "iffy" builds just fine.

shaman is getting less of a rework, and more its skills are getting some love...like tempest strike. but the devs are always tweaking as they go

[surreal verge]

We still have the "It doesn't work at all" category of builds

Which can't break 200

[native sail]

Acid Flask

[surreal verge]

Mid just means "It works, butyou might need to work for it"

[surreal verge]

Lethal Con

[humble steeple]

Does the type of armor affect the outcome of ascendance?

[surreal verge]

No, as long as it's armor

Otherwise the rune will be very bad (There's bases that only exist as uniques)

[young dawn]

does anyone have a fix for this weird background glitch on smaller text?

making it really hard to read a lot of stuff

[balmy current]

No, it's a bug

[signal dragon]

Is there any possibility that LE will be compatible for play on the Steam Deck? Now that Blizzard games are back on Steam, I think it would be great for the ability to play on my Deck.

[wide sentinel]

people are already playing le on steamdekc

[zealous tusk]

Im playing on steam deck for like 2 months or so already. Works fine.

[signal dragon]

But did you start off playing on the Deck? The last time that I tried, I could load the game and even start a new character. However, none of my previous PC-generated characters were available for me to play. You can, also stream it from your PC to the Deck but that kinda defeats the purpose of the Deck.

[zealous tusk]

Yeah i start off on the deck, also im playing offline, i only connect to character selection and turn off wifi due to limited data i have. Sleep mode perfectly works on steam deck if you want to play it offline.

[signal dragon]

Interesting. I will have to check it out, but having the ability to play your online characters seamlessly from PC to Portable would be a huge win for EHG, imo

[icy drift]

Afaik you can do that

If for any reason one doesn't sync to the other you can manually go into your steam cloud saves and yoink the files

But the online characters should always be on both no matter what since they're not even stored on your device

[wide sentinel]

when was the last time you tried? before 0.9 characters were stored locally so there was no way you can play them from deck, now its different

[signal dragon]

It was well before MP was implemented, that's for sure. I will try it out as suggested and see, thank yoiu all for the insight.

[little veldt]

how does one get to Corrupted Lake? I can't seem to find the way to get there besides through the lightless harbor

am I dumb

its a rift

[mild narwhal]

Hi, am I crazy or rogue's skills like exploding arrow & flurry doesn't register on mobs hit box more then 50% of times?

[desert tree]

You are not crazy

They both are bugged

[mild narwhal]

uh 😦

[latent herald]

and I thought I just lacked accuracy stats or smth xD

[mild narwhal]

Same 😄

[desert tree]

There is no accuracy in LE

You might give mobs dodge rating

But that's later in monos

[surreal verge]

Unless you can blind yourself, there's no accuracy thing

[elder dagger]

I just downloaded a loot filter to use as template.
I noticed that loot filter has a rule to recolor items with certain rare and valuable affixes, but no rule to show them.
Does recolor always also imply show?

[surreal verge]

Yes.

Recolor shows THEN recolors

[humble steeple]

Why "level of" affixes are not available for relic?

[low coyote]

Not all skills can go on relic

They are restricted by slot to head, body and relic. You just don't have any of the type that can go on relic

Though..

Looking at you other screenies

[humble steeple]

I think a have all skills affixes )
The problem is in the relic.

I received the affixes (level of smite) by shattering another the relic.

[low coyote]

Have you got another relic?

[humble steeple]

Yep. But there aren't Sentinel skills of course.

[desert tree]

You might need a sentinel relic then

[humble steeple]

I think class affixes are only available for class relics.

Now it's obvious.

[cerulean prawn]

Is there a way to rebind the reset view option on your map window to a different key? I use space for mobility skill but I don't see a reset view keybinding in the change input keys window >.>

[desert tree]

You mean re centering the map overlay ?

[cerulean prawn]

Oh no not the overlay

The actaual map

[desert tree]

This one ?

[cerulean prawn]

No, when you press M you get the full window map. And the default key to center is is space

[desert tree]

Oh, I didnt know that ^^

[cerulean prawn]

I rebound space to mobility skill, I was wondering if there's an option to rebind center map

😛

[desert tree]

Ah!!

I am with you now

[cerulean prawn]

\o/

[cedar locust]

Let's see what we can find in the settings!

[cerulean prawn]

I couldn't find it, but sometimes I miss things

[desert tree]

Couldnt find it either

When you press M, the space next to reset view is empty ?

[cerulean prawn]

Yep, because I rebound space to my mobility skill 😄

[cedar locust]

What happens if you hit space?

[cerulean prawn]

Nothing if I'm on the map screen, but I use transplant if I'm not in map screen

[cedar locust]

I can't find anything either, so I'll ask the team about it. Could you post in #1123697853882187847 about this with a screenshot of your keybinds and the Map open to show the missing 'Reset View' option?

[cerulean prawn]

I sure can, and thank you =]

[cerulean prawn]

I think I did a derp. Space is working fine to recenter map with being rebound to mobility too. I swear I was having issues with it! lol

[cedar locust]

Haha, well I haven't logged your feedback yet so I could always do a check in my game and see if it's an intermittent issue!

It's worth testing in both Town zones (where skills are blocked) and Wild zones (where skill can be used)

[cerulean prawn]

Couldn't hurt to test! Haha the embarrassment. I do appreciate the help though 😄 I'll continue to keep and eye and see if I have any more issues too. Thanks again @cedar locust =p

[cedar locust]

Don't worry about it! You should see how many Serpent Strike bug reports are fixed with 'Are you using a spear?', it's easy to overlook or misinterpret an issue - it's why we're here to help!

[little spear]

Hey i suddenly have the “Steam is now Required” Issue when i try to log in. Anyone else with same issue?

[toxic echo]

iirc, steam has maintenence on tuesdays...i dont remember when, that can cause issues sometimes. others times its just a little server hiccup. just keep trying should clear up pretty quick...i've been playing for a bit with no issues

[cedar locust]

The best thing to fix this is to fully close out of Steam via the Task Manager and then re-open it, usually fixes it

[little spear]

ok thx guys ill try that

great that fixed it 🤗

[cedar locust]

You're welcome! And thank you again Eagles!

[toxic echo]

well I mean eventually I need to live up to the beesfriends since I'm not helping in live game chat with CT stuffs going on.

[atomic zenith]

thanks

[wide sentinel]

im pst, was usually 10-11 am

morning

[cedar locust]

The last Major content update - 0.9.2 happened at roughly <t:1704819600:T> - this time should show in your local time zone!

For me it shows 17:00 😊

[inner locust]

Hi. Just purchased and trying the game out. Can you not set right click to move in this game? Just says the bind is "occupied" even though it is not

no

[inner locust]

Okay, thank you

[tired bronze]

Hello, I am bit OOTL, is it still confirmed that we will get true offline mode (when you can start the game offline, not like in current state)? And if yes, when?

[cedar locust]

True Offline mode is planned for 1.0!

[tired bronze]

Amazing, thank you very much and have a nice day!

[cedar locust]

You're welcome!

[tired bronze]

I can’t wait to play this game on my Steam Deck on the go. I know that official support is not on your roadmap (and don’t know what about better controller control), but even in current state game on SD is really playable and nice 🙂

[desert tree]

Controler support is actively worked on for 1.0

It should improve quite a bit, as well as performance for Linux/Steam Deck

[cedar locust]

We also have some links I can grab to help with Steam Deck and controller set-up!

[vapid merlin]

GMT gang 💪

[tired bronze]

Ohh that’s great, thank you for answers, I didn’t play for some time now and read much, so my knowledge is bit outdated. Sorry if my questions are something that you answered already 1000 times, it’s just a lot is happening in game last weeks and months and I couldn’t track everything 🙂

[cedar locust]

No worries at all! Happy to reshare links and re-answer questions! Let me go get those for you!

https://old.reddit.com/r/LastEpoch/comments/14j2whh/simple_movement_skill_fix/ - It's says movement fix but that link is a player guide for setting up Controller to work around the targeting issue!

This one for more generic advice for Steam Deck that might help a little - https://old.reddit.com/r/LastEpoch/comments/1559pgc/is_anyone_successfully_playing_this_on_steam_deck/

Are the Twitch drops exclusive or available to buy later?

[modest sentinel]

Hey! Been keeping an eye on LE for awhile now. As we're getting closer to release, is there a benefit to go ahead and pick it up now before release?

[balmy current]

Being able to play a good game for longer?

[desert tree]

You should ask that in #👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs,but I think they will be Twitch Drop Exclusive

[lofty flume]

i have a dude, i am mage and do fireball lightning build, i have 100% change damage fire to lightning for fireball, i am changging 1 idol 15% damage fire per 1 idol 15% lightning damage and i lose 30 damage in fireball skill how it is possible ?

[toxic echo]

the tooltip dps isnt super reliable overall. do you have any ignite chance perhaps?

[wide sentinel]

conversion ignores any % increased dmg, so fire idol is completely useless if u converted to lightning

i assume you have something else on those idols

[lofty flume]

ignite change 0%

the other attribute are not dps (damage, crit, etc)

[wide sentinel]

also yes forget about tooltips, they are useless in this game

unless you really understand how skill and damage calculation works, and even then its not reliable

#deleteTooltipDPS pls

Hi all,
Is there a list somewhere or an overview, where I can see what the different “names” on rare add to the items ?
E.g. kings sword of haste (increase damage and attack speed - thought example from D1)
??

[desert tree]

Lastepochtools.com

[desert tree]

Do you have 83% with the right one ?

[vapid merlin]

yes

[desert tree]

Imo the right one is better

[tacit dragon]

for poison lich is chance or dmg better? none of my spells really scale from poison dmg

[desert tree]

Not sure what you are playing, so its kinda hard to advice you

But for Poison build usually you want a lot of poison chance

good evening everyone. i am new to LE, and not very good at these types of games 🙂 what type of casting build can i do for 1st character that will allow me to get used to the game. Something fairly not complicated

[vapid merlin]

i'm using a lightning blast sorcerer, pretty simple and is still good

it's the first spell you unlock so you don't have to swap builds midway through levelling or anything

[cunning crow]

Yeah, I can do the math manually if need be, I was just curious if there was a place it was already done

[sterile bane]

Not yet

Does VK have a natural time rot?

[brave path]

yah there is a passive to have melee attacks inflict time rot

and a couple other passive that augment it

[pastel pebble]

Time Rot is a VK thing, ye

[brave path]

yah

[sterile bane]

So then it gets complicate

D

[cunning crow]

So what's the next step then?

(to be clear, I do appreciate the assistance! It's just the 'one half step at a time' pacing that's getting to me)

[brave path]

essentially you will just have the chance from the node + any items that add chance for time rot iirc

it only stacks to 12 so you will have maximum stacks like all the time

(im doing the same build to btw)

[pastel pebble]

There's a few nodes that help with time rot application. Volatile Reversal applies it to melee attacks via one kf its nodes, Erasing Strike converts all bleed chance into time rot chance alongside having nodes to apply it on melee hit, Warpath has one as well that converts. There's some more but you get the idea. Void Cleave, Erasing Strike, Warpath, and Volatile Reversal all have nodes that gives you More Damage per Time Rot (or only on max stacks in Erasing Strike's case)

[brave path]

ah good call...forgot to check other skills xD

[pastel pebble]

The damage can really add up with it

What are you running?

[brave path]

he and i are both running the VK warpath

[brave path]

@cunning crow

so he gets pinged xD

[pastel pebble]

Oh then definitely hit up VR for its Time Rot node since its a massive boost in power all around. Helps out in recovering mana too

[brave path]

yah looks like he was talking about if there was something that showed your chance to apply time rot...but i think you just have to manually add it all up to get a rough idea

but ultimately i dont think i ever dont hit the cap stacks so it isnt much of an issue on my end

early on it might be though

[pastel pebble]

Vibe it out sorta deal

[brave path]

yah

[signal rover]

anybody knows if they have put out the timezone for the Twitch drops to start?

[icy drift]

Pretty sure twitch drops start at the same time everywhere

[signal rover]

yes it starts the same but what timezone are they starting it?

22 Feb in America =/= 22 Feb in Japan

[icy drift]

I see what you're saying, they usually operate on American time but I'm guessing they'll reveal it a few days beforehand

[safe harness]

It’s when 1.0 is released

[signal rover]

ah ok I guess I'll just wait until closer to the dates

[surreal verge]

Still need advice?

[shell flame]

Sweet, twitch streams, mute them and minimize while I game, for free cosmetics I'm down!

[onyx osprey]

Got this whiler trying to link my accounts, anyone else got this?

[silk girder]

Hello

I think my game is bugged

My next yellow quest is on an island and I have no way to get there

I just googled for like an hour

and couldnt find anyone posting something similar

I'm going to ask here before i report a bug

quest name is Isle of storms

I'm not on the island...

and I see no way to get there

I think maybe the quest was supposed to teleport me to the island

[brave path]

what was the quest you did previous to it?

[silk girder]

lol

uh

is there a log

[tacit dragon]

Yes please

[brave path]

dont think so...have you actually gone to like the temple depths and that?

[silk girder]

tbh i dont pay attention to names i was just killing stuff

im in divinde era -12BE

if that helps

[brave path]

lemme log in and look around...whats the city that you TP to?

[silk girder]

ill ch eck

i restarted the game hoping it would fix it

and it put me into

end of time map

[brave path]

have you been here?

same area

(to the right of the island)

[silk girder]

sec

no

[surreal verge]

What do you want to do main damage with

[silk girder]

i have nothing to the right of the island

[brave path]

far right

[silk girder]

tbh idk what im looking for, i was just looking how to get to the main quest

if that helps

[brave path]

north of that slightly

[tacit dragon]

Rn I use channeled wandering spirits while casting hungering every couple secs for the buff, I kinda like the idea of a dot damage build

[silk girder]

that is north

[brave path]

im just trying to establish where you are in the story to see if it was a bug bug or not haha

[silk girder]

no, i appreciate you

ty

[brave path]

ok so you are in the right area and that story quest is fine

so i will say you should be doing every quest you get tbh

i saw before you had a lot you hadnt done

[silk girder]

they are side quests tho

right

[brave path]

they are but iirc some of the award passive points to get your 15/15 sooner?

[silk girder]

i mean that doesnt solve my issue

lol

but youre not wrong

[brave path]

and honestly just following all the quests will lead you in the line of the MSQ

[silk girder]

ok but i know where my MSQ is, i just cant get there

[surreal verge]

Go thetmia.

[brave path]

so you should have had a quest that takes you from thetima to

[surreal verge]

There should be an NPC North west

[brave path]

and you just follow those maps to the island

[silk girder]

ok im going there

[surreal verge]

BUt channeled means you'll be stuck in place.

[silk girder]

i feel like this should be reported tho

hopefully it works but

there should be a waypoint up in thetmia

before it takes you to the island?

[surreal verge]

Thetmia is a town.

[brave path]

iirc the quest does just go all the way out there from thetima

[surreal verge]

If you do it as normal, the quest sends you to where you need to go exactly

[silk girder]

i think i crashed

last night

and got mad and logged back in

but

still

this is a problem

[surreal verge]

It's SUPPOSED to just send you to lagon's isle instantly, assuming no bugs

[tacit dragon]

Don't really know what else to use

[tacit dragon]

Could maybe use spirit plague instead of hungering souls

[brave path]

the quest should, which i think it did since he had the first 3 zones revealed

[silk girder]

exactly

[brave path]

but he didnt get to the 4th when he crashed

so didnt have the waypoint

and didnt know to talk to the NPC to get back out there

[silk girder]

yeah i had no clue what to do

or where to go

i think im back on track

ty @surreal verge and @brave path

[surreal verge]

Lagon's isle has a waypoint tho

[silk girder]

yeah but

i didnt have it

[brave path]

he didnt make it that far

[surreal verge]

Ah

[silk girder]

see screenshot

[surreal verge]

Wait.

[brave path]

he got the first 3 and not the 4th

[surreal verge]

That's...

The opposite

[brave path]

oh wait

[surreal verge]

Temple is the last waypoint before the BOSS

[brave path]

yah hmm

how tf

did he get to the moonlit shrine and beyond

[surreal verge]

You can just run normal wandering

[brave path]

without doing the quest?

[silk girder]

im glad you guys know what youre talking about bc i dont

but i definitely was fked

without the help

[surreal verge]

Also death wave can apply poison, so Mortal Pulse is a good take

[surreal verge]

So did the NPC send you to where you need to go?

[silk girder]

not sure what you mean

but i was able to go to lagon isle

[surreal verge]

Okay good enough

[brave path]

k good lol

[surreal verge]

You're supposed to talk to an npc, which opens a portal/path to lagon isle

Assuming you did the portal/path should always be at thiema

[brave path]

wasnt it the ship captain that takes yah?

[silk girder]

i went to thetmia and was able to go into lagon

[surreal verge]

Dk his name lul

[brave path]

it was the dude that turned into a boss...the crab guy

lol

[tacit dragon]

What nodes should I take instead of channelled?

Here's a refrence off an old AoD build

[brave path]

god looks like i forgot what the map looks like for undiscovered places xD had to hop on my lowbie to remind myself...havent done the story in like 3 months

xD

[tacit dragon]

is it still good nowadays? and how is the damage with only 1 spell

[surreal verge]

It's okay, as in the nature of all poison builds (Poison is mid)
The objective of this build is to hyper buff poison as much as possible. AoD lets you run around things and apply about stable 40-50 stacks of poison.
Reaper form is extra health, poison res, and reap as bonus movement.
Death Seal is Death Seal, with constant death waves doing damage and applying poison and plague
Wandering is the only damage button you press and run around, doing a good chunk of damage and apply more poison with itself and its spit
Transplat is the default dodge button, bone armor, and haste

Yes, your health will be bouncing like a maniac with this build because of AoD hurting you as much as it's hurting them

[tacit dragon]

ok thanks ill give it a go, how are bleed builds also bad?

[surreal verge]

Bleed is decent. Acolyte sadly can't make that good of a bleed build, but you can sure try

[toxic anvil]

bad is somewhat dependent to how far u want to push corruption also

low corruption most builds can run and you'll have fun

[surreal verge]

Sure AoD can do 100 corruption, but it's SLOW

[tacit dragon]

just getting to empowered atm need the lvl 90 ones done

[toxic anvil]

oh yeah real close man

[surreal verge]

Oh, anything decently built can do normal monoliths

[toxic anvil]

yeye

[tacit dragon]

which classes other than acolyte can do a good poison build?

[desert tree]

Probably primalist

[surreal verge]

Primalist has that funny thorn totem build and nova scorp

[desert tree]

Serpent Strike

I wanted to tried Spirit Thorn Spriggan Form too

[vapid merlin]

How does stun avoidance scale

Because it’s a flat number and doesn’t give any conversion to like a % chance to avoid a stun

[desert tree]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/guide/section/stun

You can find the formula in there and in the ingame guide

[vapid merlin]

Cheers

[terse blade]

Im currently leveling a Rive with forged weapons. question is: Does the weapons summoned via Rive benefit from passives in Forge Strike?

[storm blaze]

Yes

[thin elk]

Is that always the case? Or are some skills only the Basic Version without the skilltree

[zealous tusk]

Im pretty sure this one is rare or not?

[icy drift]

Very rare yes

[storm blaze]

Pretty sure it is always the case.

[desert tree]

If it mentions a skill, it will always use the related skill tree

Some node might need a direct use though

[zealous tusk]

Can I ask what build uses it? Or whats the purpose of using it?

[icy drift]

Not many builds use it, it's pretty niche

Some use it for the mana

It only shines in super high investment builds that aren't really achievable right now outside of crazy hours

Maybe once factions drop you'll be able to put something good together for it

[zealous tusk]

I see. Thanks!

I thought it can be used to farm t4 julra safely. xD

[round mountain]

Are there any <@&1082357055484071997> available that I can ask about getting the streamer tag? 🙂

[cedar locust]

Hello! I think you asked before, right?

I would have passed your name over, though it's been busy! I can follow up on it when the team comes online for you!

[round mountain]

Hey! Yes I did when you guys were on break still so I thought I’d just leave it until you guys had been back a few days at least 🙂 no rush! But very excited for it, it’s all I’ll be streaming come release

[cedar locust]

Glad to hear you're enjoy Eterra! I'll see what I can find out later for you!

[round mountain]

It’s the place to be 👌 thank you!

[cedar locust]

Did you share links to your twitch/youtube with us before?

[round mountain]

[patent magnet]

hi, I've been away from the game for a while. I have a question as I was lazy to read all updates. Are we able to skip campaign for new characters now?

[round mountain]

Sent it to you via dm and in here 🙂

[toxic echo]

you are not able to, and wont be able to here (at least for a while). the devs are pretty adamant that the leveling process is important

mostly because something else would have to take its place, and would require scaling to the player (like d4's world is totally scaled) a lot harder here, where everything is a static level

[patent magnet]

ugh, will be a while till I make a new char..this questline is quite a turnoff for me at least.

thank you for the info.

[cedar locust]

There is a 'Short cut' path, where you can use dungeons to skip through most of the Campaign - there is a video explanation on Youtube, I can find the link if you'd like!

[patent magnet]

If it's the one video from Action RPG I think I have it saved in some playlist.

If it's a different one, if you have the time, please link it.

[toxic echo]

dont really need a video...you just use dungeons to skip the campaign. problem with using dungeons is, you still need to complete enough side quests to get all the passives and idol slots. doesnt really save time...just do different chapters

[patent magnet]

It's ok, I will probably play my new char using the story so I can revive my 'lost knowledge' of the game. I was away for a few months now.

[cedar locust]

Oh then I would say start a new character and refamiliarise yourself with the game! Especially with 1.0 on the horizon!

[fiery idol]

is it worth farming lost caches in empowered?

[toxic echo]

farming them? eh. you only get one spawned per map. but generally worth getting it if you see one. wouldnt hunt the whole map for it tho

[fiery idol]

its taking me only like 15second average to find it in a broken hills layout

[inland quiver]

is there a way when crafting to remove a specific prefix/suffix?

[vapid merlin]

You can attempt to seal it if it’s a low level

But there’s no way to remove a specific affix

[toxic echo]

sealing it, but despair glyphs are pretty rare overall. can also chaos it, but thats a random outcome.

[inland quiver]

and once an item runs out of forging potential there is no way to get mnore?

[toxic echo]

its done

[cedar locust]

Nope, though loot drops often so you can always find decent replacements

[surreal verge]

Nope, no way to increase FP

[inland quiver]

[lyric lance]

Ok thank 🙂

[kind summit]

Are there any "perks" for purchasing a supporter pack other than the cosmetics? I don't really love any of the current packs but also want to support the game and it's development. Is the supporter packs the best way?

[toxic echo]

the cosmetics, and then points to spend on other cosmetics.

[cedar locust]

In the words of Mike - 'You can play the game and sharing your experiences with the community and your friends. You can create build guides for other players. You can submit feedback and bug reports to help improve the game. If you're talking about monetary support, we have various tiers of supporter packs on our website that come with more and more stuff as you go up. Thanks for playing and I'm glad you're enjoying yourself!'

You don't have to spend to support us, playing the game and giving us honest feedback about the thing you do and don't like helps a bunch! As do any suggestions you might have!

Just being involved and part of the community supports us too! There will also be more cosmetics and supporter packs in the future so if you did want to support us with purchases, hopefully a cosmetic item or pack comes along you do like!

[kind summit]

Thanks for the response! I'll definitely keep playing. Maybe instead of buying a supporter pack, I'll just buy the game for friends so they can't come up with any excuse not to give it a try lol

Hi there! I have a problem with lost connestions and want to ask what is the most stable server ever? I tired to clean maps in company several times cos im out of connection

A lot of people do atm, just wait for them to resolve it

[toxic echo]

its pretty common on that page. but often times is fine on twitches side. double check the link page on twitch itself

Another thing to try is clearing your browser cache if your Twitch Connections isn't showing as connected to Last Epoch Drops!

[zealous orchid]

Do most builds/skills/playstyles change when u get to endgame? I'm feel like I'm getting bored of my build at level 40-60.

[surreal verge]

With a full set of 5 specs and actual unique access it does open up, what are you playing

[zealous orchid]

Hmm sorry not at my PC atm but it's void knight with a spin to win life drain type of build

Sorry can't remember the names atm

[surreal verge]

That's going to stay the same-ish, assuming it's warpath

[zealous orchid]

Yeah that's it

[surreal verge]

That's the nature of warpath

[crude sable]

People still play this game? Thought it died

[surreal verge]

Imagine an ARPG truly dying

[icy drift]

Games not even out yet 😭

[desert tree]

Wolcen

[sterile bane]

Moron hasn’t ever posted before and the first post after being in the server for almost a year is “People still play this game? Thought it died”,

[surreal verge]

that's an exception, they shot themselves-

[native sail]

Still technically not dead. Even Torchlight 1 still pulls like 30 daily players somehow.

[surreal verge]

And yeah techncally not dead.

Just fell off to the depths of "no one cares now"

[native sail]

My opinion is that a game isn't truly dead until it either stops being talked about or the average player count becomes so low that it couldn't even fill a CoD lobby.

[sterile bane]

Like the Macklemore song

[native sail]

And as much hate as people throw it Wolcen, the obsession with going "hahaha dead game" keeps it alive and gives it some semblance of relevancy still.

[desert tree]

My biggest disappointment

[surreal verge]

As a example of what NOT to do, but yeah not truly dead just yet.

[native sail]

I honestly think Wolcen can eventually fix itself. It doesn't seem to be completely abandoned and the team seems to be aware of the problems with it. It'll probably take a long time though.

[desert tree]

They are moving too slow imo

And have been since the start

I wish nothing but good stuff for the game, but I don't see anything happening

[pastel pebble]

It definitely seemed to be a bit of a mess

[wicked dove]

is there any time it would start?

[blazing sparrow]

If I make a necro build with skeleton mage specialized to cast sacrifice on wraiths, wraiths specialized to spawn at cursor location, and sacrifice to get x damage bonuses, will the skeleton mages cast the specialized version of sacrifice or one with no bonuses?

[faint cape]

Minions use their own versions of skills, so they don't benefit from your stats or specializations unless explicitly stated (the only minions I can think of that use your specialized skills are Primalist ones).

[hybrid fractal]

is there some optimal way to run echos to avoid situations like this? where you have only one choice node after node instead of an expanding web? eventually this will be an orobyss and brick for me since I am trying to keep this corruption level

[desert tree]

Echoes are generated randomly, so not really

[brave path]

i mean i dont think it is very common to run into this? think it is all random...also even if you hit that orobyss you can do it and do the echo that lets you lower your corruption to keep around where you are at

also typically just go straight out 1 direction from the main node until you hit a dead end, should have plenty of options nearby that branch out too

[hybrid fractal]

ok thanks to both

[hybrid fractal]

I can do that but honestly what I'm trying to do is find that special echo that resets all your echo rewards so I can get as much value as possible on a big web, so I don't want to reset the web at all.

[brave path]

i mean at that point it is just random...go til you hit a dead end, rinse and repeat until you find what you want

ive had some webs i had to go through like 30+ echoes before i found one of those

[hybrid fractal]

Yeah of course, was just wondering if people had figured out some more optimal way to reveal echo nodes in general since I haven't played in a minute.

[brave path]

fair...but yah =/ sadly gotta pray to RNGesus

it likely is already connected. just check your twitch connections > other connections. should have a last epoch drop section. lots of people are getting the error on the main page, but it is actually connected on twitch
