They'd cancel each other out
Ok so they're additive with each other not multiplicative then
Mmm in this case yes
I'm mot confident to say that that wording will always be consistent everywhere
The reason I ask is because if you want to maintain parity on "less/more" modifiers they would be multiplicative
They have some wording oddities still
It's kinda like when they say, you cast, cast, directly cast and so on
I'll test it
Do so, I'm pretty sure they cancel each other out in this case and are additive
But I can't say for certain as you can tell lul
If you have no other modifiers to mana on your character, then if it's multiplicative it should be (base mana cost x 0.36), and if it's additive it would be (base mana cost x 1)
0.36 is taken from
100 x 0.2 x 1.8
100 representing 100%
0.2 being the 0.2 effective multiplier from less mana consumption
1.8 being both points allocated from the 40% more mana consumption node (which should always be additive with itself because it's the same source)
The Lesser Glacier and the following isolated node for the Glacier skill on Mage are in fact additive and not multiplicative despite the wording being "more"
Yep, there are still a few cases of inappropriate use of 'more', 'less', 'increased', and 'reduced', like that one. They do typically include the (multiplicative with other modifiers) statement when they truly are more/less, but not always.
I've heard a decent bit about bugs, typos, and description errors being already fixed in 1.0 and just not in the current version so I'm not really worried about it tbh, more just immediately curious because I'm trying to figure out shenanigans
Yeah, the two areas where I feel like the descriptions are the most hazy in still are conversions and cooldown recovery, I recommend testing those typically before doing any builds relying on them
Yup, I've played the game enough to where my intuition is more reliable than the ingame text most of the time now lol
Can never be too careful though so I'd always test before trusting either one
I'd tested it and figured it out in this case
That's why I said it definitively
With 62 base mana cost and 80% less with 40% more it landed at 37.2 (rounded up to 38) instead of 17
is there a way to block people to just not see their chat logs
really dumb question but is LE like POE where you lose xp on death?
In regards to Frost Claw being converted to lightning, the spell desc says that frostbite damage is converted to shock damage. But what about freeze chance?
It doesnt speciifically mention that at all
like other skills
right i meant to say chance
So taking a node that increases freeze chance wont convert the freeze chance to shock chance
No
Technically it will still have the frm, like for reowyns veil, it just can't freeze
as level 53 paladin resifine? not all maxed when in town, but this is outside of town stats
Yep, no need to perfectly cap them all, like you could replace some lightning and poison res with more health/endurance/armor etc. You do need more than just resists for your defenses, though.
yeah, touch the ice with stick softly befor fixing later things 😄
Question on upcoming trade system, are you able to shatter bought items for crafting and are those crafting mats restricted to MG or can you use it for CoF items?
You can salvage purchased items for shards like normal, yes. Gold and crafting materials are never restricted to any faction.
It wouldn't be worth your time to swap to MG just for that if you do CF, though. Shards are relatively easy to get for both
I often find that I don't have enough shards for stuff like specific skill levels when switching builds
so was thinking it may be worth it to get MG to lvl 1 at least so I can buy items with those skills to salvage
If you highlight all class-specific affixes T4+ (or T5+ later on) in your filter to salvage, you'll get them all, especially on classes you play often
I am trying to farm for Aberrant Call, which is a drop in the level 62 timeline. But I am overleveled and find it very tedious to go to such a low level timeline for farming. Is there any other way of obtaining this unique without having to farm in low level content?
For example, will I be able to access all these timelines later on at level 100 difficulty when I get to end game?
Or is progressing through all the corruptions the only way to increase the difficulty of these low level timelines?
you're gonna want to complete the level 90 monos, then use the thing in the middle of them to unlock empowered. then you'll be able to start a level 100 version of your desired timeline, which is strictly better for loot
Oh thats fantastic! Thank you
Then i won't farm for it until I get to level 90
What build would you recommend for necromancers if I don't have a single unique for any build?
Aberrant call can drop anywhere high enough level, so you might get it on the way. Boneshatter is a strong build with a kinda strange playstyle that has no gear reqs
Ok! Thanks for the tip!
Can someone suggest me a good map clear / farmer build
I tried sorcerer (static orb) and I'm lv90 but didnt like the spec, kinds of feel underpowered
is lich or runemaster a better choice?
runemaster is just better sorc in every single aspect
also strange that static orb sorc felt underpowered to you, its a very strong build even after nerfs
Does "Damage while Channeling" affect attack/spells that lingers before we start the channeling?
e.g: Casting Volcanic Orb > Focus (channel)
does the volcanic orb damage is increased when we start channeling focus?
No
i see ty for the confirmation
my biggest problem is mana issues but I also dont have great items
it is my 3rd day
well yes then it makes sense,its not a cheap build
unless im missing smth, it needs gear to feel good but then its strong
well it takes pretty long to farm empowered monoliths
maybe bcuz I'm lv90
so I'm doing normal monoliths to level up, get some gear for now
have no prob on normal ones, pretty smooth but empowered ones, I dont have enough dmg to 1-2 shot packs
Does anyone have any suggestion for a build that is tanky (as close to immortal as possible) with at the same time low APM requirement (Few active skills/ non-complex rotation etc.) for my young son to play with me? 🙂
Frostbite Frostclaw
90% of it is right click
You get to 10k ward once you have a little bit of gear
Cool I will look into that build
Hey all, just wondering i haven't played since march 2023 or something i am playing again now but i am lost. I am lvl 58 spellblade up to the monoliths but my build doesnt feel the same and i dont know what my item do anymore. Any guidance will be appericated thanks.
does added ele dmg work like in PoE? for example, if i'm using a skill that does (according to its tag) physical dmg and no ele, if i get a weapon with added cold dmg, will the skill add that ele dmg to its overall dmg?
Your passive tree got reset since RM dropped.
Yes, flat is added as long as it matches the skill type (Melee, Spell, Throwing, Bow)
alright cool, so having +5 cold dmg on my bow will add cold dmg to flurry (for example) which has only phys tag
Check Perry The Pig on yt
Yes, the tags are here to convert Adaptive Flat Dmg
Like +x Bow Dmg
i see
excellent ty
are there some 3rd party tools for build making or anything useful?
what is rm
Runemaster.
TLDR:Check your passive tree.
ty
are we going to have to make new characters to participate in the 1.0 features after it comes out? or do previously created characters have access?
does this mean when i get hit by enemies?
Yes
i see ty for the confirmation
When hit > you are getting hit
On hit > you are hitting
anyone encountering some bug that makes projectiles not have a hitbox? i started a rogue character today with bow build (i tried using flurry/puncture and exploding arrow) and the skills would not work
animation wouldn't show, then when it finally showed the projectiles would just fly through the act 2 boss i was fighting with no hitbox, no dmg
exploding arrow (or detonating arrow, forgot the name) wouldn't attach to the mobs i was aiming at, it would fly through them and not explode at all
On a side note, anyone ever made a build leaning heavily into this stat? Taking it as blessing, and on idols etc. Is there a point where you get your chance up sufficiently high to generate more ward than you might lose through taking hits?
Flurry and detonationg arrow has bugs that makes it very hard to hit
Don’t use them
I got similiar build concept on my Paladin,
instead of Ward when Hit, its a Health Gain on Block,.
It ended up can tank continous hit like ice needle turret and recovering my hp instead
can I farm boss uniques on normal monos instead of empowered ones?
Depends on the Unique. Every boss has 2 normal drops where one of them drops guaranteed.
1 rare drop that can drop on normal as well.
1 super rare drop that can only drop on empowered.
Some bosses have even more items in their drop pool
I'm trying to farm Prism Wraps and Twisted Heart of Uhkeiros
but I'm not powerful enough to farm empowered ones so I was thingking of doing normal ones
is it a bad idea? (3 days old char)
I made a meme build once, because I found a 4LP Close Call Shield.
I made a Blade Dancer Rogue with Ward Trial close Call and Raindance.
Against many small hits it was basically immortal and even for slower harder hits my hp would go up and down all the time but not becoming dangerous
I could afk Arena wave 150 or so and not die
That relic is not a empowered only drop, so you can definitely farm it on normal, but it is a lot rarer to get via normal boss kills.
What is important. %Inc. Item Rarity from corruption and Enemy Modifiers does increase chances for Bosses to drop their rare drops.
So ideally you want to farm enough stability for the boss and then stack a few enemy modifiers before doing the boss.
Ideally modifiers that don't make it too hard for your build.
For Emporer of Corpses I would suggest not taking Frenzy or Enrage, this makes his Big Aoe way more punishing because it is cast way faster
you depend a lot on your luck though
if thats the bottleneck of your build right now, theres a high chance you burn out before you get it
Not always though it can happen - are you playing on the same server?
I play on NEA since it has better ping, he prefers SEA so I get "TP'ed" to SEA since he's PL
Something worth trying is logging out, choosing the same server from the Log-in page, then joining a Party - this can be more stable than playing on different servers or changing servers in game!
It's also a good idea to let the Party leader enter and fully load the echo before the rest of the party follows, this makes sure you'll be loading on to the same server instance 🙂
If I craft the following exalted item with a unique, it can take both the static orb and lightning blast skill affixes onto itself right ?
Yes but it's gonna take some luck
And it needs 2 LP or more, of course
I'm following the Maxroll Rive VK guide atm and need 4 uniques (Siphon of Anguish, Shattered Chains, Titan Heart and Auroras Time Glass).
Can I get Titan Heart/Auroras from Rune of Ascendance? Pretty sure I can't get the other 2.
you can. though auroras is one of the rarest amulets in the game. titans is a bit more common
Thanks, I think I'll try my luck on chest pieces then, or just try for Jasper's Searing Pride with more LP. I think the chance of getting LP with Rune of Ascendance is really low though right?
Hi does it make sense to try to target farm set gear when I am in the early game or should I progress the monoliths? I was doing the blood,frost and death map over and over to get the lichs scorn from the ice boss(forgot his name). But gave up after like 5h and I thought maybe it would be better to just progress map and come back to it. I read in a post that when you clear all maps that it will be easier to gain corruption and farm rare items?
lower than dropping in the wild, yes
only ever got 1lp from it
I also noticed that you can kill the boss and as long as you dont speak to the person to complete the quest you can redo the boss again but I noticed that the boss drops less/no rare loot if you do it this way. Is this intented to prevent fast boss rushing?
Are there any mods yet to improve controller input /acessability?
yes
the boss should be dropping literally nothing when you do this
not that i know of
but also i'd caution you that using third party software to change how the game reads your inputs can result in ehg suspending your account
generally you dont really want to farm normal monoliths. empowered monoliths are better to farm in for items (corruption item rarity) and greater blessings.
particualrly monolith bosses, you have to re-earn their stability inorder to get their boss drops. there are only a couple monlith bosses you can go back into without refarming all the stability, but generally not worth it, since the drops you want are locked after the first fight with the stab
they unofficially allow certain things that don't really provide an advantage and what you're thinking of might fall into that category but like just be aware of the risk you're taking on
While there is nothing official, Steams in built controller customisation opens up a lot of possibilities! Are you you trying to set up anything in particular?
Okay thank you very much^^ Gonna finish the rest then
In addition to what the other folks have said, it may be worthwhile to mention official support for controllers is a 1.0 feature, so that should be a significant improvement (though I'm sure it'll still need work)
How is multiplayer running in the current version of Last Epoch? I played with 3-4 mates about a year ago, and the game would end up in a constant state of rubber banding and crashing, if we where all in the same game - Is that still the case, or has it gotten better/worse? Thanks for reading 🙂
it is better, but it is not perfect. still people having parting issues, but plenty have no issues. but its a very case by case basis. its a constant work in progress for the devs up to and past 1.0
If you play on different servers, you can get a more stable connection by all choosing the same server at log-in and letting the party leader load into a zone fully before everyone else follows. There are also 3rd Party programs that have helped other players improve their stability in Parties.
did anyone ever try to make lunge work as main dmg skill
Trust me, don't even try it
Peepeepoopoo damage.
sadge, thought it could be like d3 raekor, but base dmg is 2, thats a bit underwhelming
Needs to be buffed to 0 CD, 5000% movespeed while lunging and 20 lunges per second.
Pretty much all melee skills have a base damage of 2, that's not the issue
Cooldown based with no real damage support in its tree and nothing in game that significantly alters it to be usable as a damage skill
?
half of lunges tree is for its own damage
maybe not exactly half, but a very good chunk of it
yesnt
It's the cooldown and the issue that a lot of its stuff is related to rewarding long range lunges
Not the way you're hoping
and added damage scaling is 100%
It has a bunch of more modifiers, sure. It has next to no increases, and no good source of flat outside of weapon (which is still iffy). Plus terrible uptime and bad added scaling.
Also the only flat crit in its tree is with spear. And spears are the worst weapon type in the game bar none.
Sure you can get flat crit on sword or axe or what have you but the more the better
For comparison, void cleave has 400% added damage scaling, tons of more multis that are better than lunge's, and a faster cooldown. With all that, it's capable of being a clear skill. (Oh yeah, and a much larger area)
theres that crit spear
There are no spears in Last Epoch

the damage values of nearly everything snapshots when you cast the spell, thus the damage of your VO won't update dynamically with stats you gain or lose over its duration
Check their affixes
i did like the spear passives on lunge
kinda want to use this
but there are no good phys unique spears
Now check what skills support them
what are they missing?
The problem is that they aren't missing anything. But there's no real benefit to them. Other two-handers do everything they do but with more in-skill support nearly across the board, not to mention that most classes that are using two-hand also have more support in their passives for other weapon types than spears.
is javelin literally the only skill that utilizes spears?
serpent strike
the problem is not so much the skils but as deias said the support in general
That skill has way more issues tbh. The fact that it's basically relegated to "the skill that makes Swarmblade have stupid defenses and nothing else" kinda hurts
like this kind of thing
there is no melee phys if wielding spear and stuff like that
same with passive tree
Hey now, it also gives armblade slash a strong cull!
yea i noticed
ok but they asked if other skills cared about spears
like the answer is yes
those skills sucking isn’t my problem
Or like Warpath having buffs for everything melee except spears
tbf spinning with a spear makes no sense
It'd probably still hurt to get smacked with a spear, just maybe not quite the same way
i unspecced my right click to test stuff and now it is gone
The point I'm trying to make is that there's a lot of skills that have buffs for specific melee weapons but the only ones that mention spears are Lunge (which is not a damage skill) and Jav (which is unironically better as a skill to proc Smite with 1H/Shield)
but yeah, generally there is no spear class, just some random one-offs
jav was actually good on release since there was a spear that gave generic crit
Jav needs attack speed buffs imo
haven't used jav as an actual attack since they deleted that lol
i wanted to try splitting jav but read it is bugged currently
Still is afaik
Spinning, just spinning, makes no sense whatsoever as a form of attacking anyone.
but it's cool
Maybe we could have a poison conversion of Warpath, because you spinned to much and now you are throwing up on your enemies
How can you be fine with warpath as a skill in the first place, but draw the line at osmeone doing it with a spear as being the absurd bit.
because if you are going to do weird stuff, at least use the edge of your weapon while doing it
AND of all the weapons, spear is actually one of the few that you actually spin around as part of its moveset
(from a kung fu perspective)
animated shows are definitely a great example of how weapons get used in the real world
but also it’s simple
if i’m warpathing with a big sword they’re going to get hit by the edge
if i’m warpathing with a club they’re going to get clubbed
if i’m warpathing with a spear they’re most likely going to get hit by the long wooden handle
and if you use a spear, they get hit by the speartip
no because the spear tip is a fairly small portion of the spear
Well, if we're gonna get too real world here, spears are just the best weapon and we can delete most of the weapon types except maybe like sword and bow
thats why they have to be nerfed in LE
got so many chars lined up to farm gear for but with cof at the horizon it kinda feels lame to do that now
there's some merit to hammers and mauls tbh
good luck killing rock monsters or constructs efficiently with a spear
don quixote could have used a hammer against the windmills instead of the spear
but how he gonna poke em in the eye with a hammer
The world if Quixote used a hammer: <insert utopia flying cars meme>
Can I interest you in a Lucerne Mace?
Hey everyone! Got a noob question. I started playing a SpellBlade, and some skills have additonal effect "for each equiped sword", but I can't seem to equip more than a single sword. What am i doing wrong? 🤔
Probably not, where would I find that, is it in the passive tree? ^^'
yep spellblade passive
Found it, thank you!
https://i.imgur.com/RUgUFml.png
what is that sphere ice effect?
it procs off of something on me but not sure what it is
glacier has an ice nova thing that i think looks like that
also some in runic invocation and ele nova.
nah, dont think so, thats just a stat buff. doesnt say anything about a skill proc
it says when I hit or I'm hit, it procs whirling snow
I guess the name corresponds to the graphic
For Bladedancer is it better to go with Shadow Cascade or synchronized strike after hitting the monolith?
SS is generally a skill that leads to other skills, as a good shadow generator.
Idk of anyone that has mained SS as an actual damage skill, but most bds use it
ok thanks. I am nowhere near that point yet just trying to plan ahead. appreciate it
Whats the best way to get an Alchemist Ladle? Been playing for about 200 hours multiple characters, still havent seen it :/
Mad alchemists ladle or normal ladle?
Mad alchemists only drops from exiled mages found in rune prisons
https://i.imgur.com/KC0Uw1Q.png
does that mean it will be guaranteed 15x upgrade ?
yes. 15 random affix upgrades
why I cant play it's maintenance?
what is that "weaver's will" thing?
As you kill mobs, the item will get 15 random affix upgrades 🙂
Thank you very much !
- remove all weapon types
- add 91281 variants of spears with various crap on top
- move greatswords into polearms
It's a little ice vortex effect. There are a few things that generate that vfx, I'd need to look at your build to tell you exactly which thing. Also, some enemies do generate those.
sorry if this has been asked 100 times but will 1.0 come with a propper ladder (as in whos first in xp, whos first to beat boss xy etc.)
okay ive found out by searching there will be a ladder, just still wondering what the main aspect is to climb, xp?
i dont think there is any reason for that since lvl 100 is much easier to reach compared to path of exile for example, same for bosses
like its not even an achievment
ladder will be based around pushing arena
its been like that almost since start of open beta
Tbh with the announced changes to corruption I'd expect to have that ladder as well
ya would be cool
tho tbh wouldnt really want to open it and see 99 runemasters on top

just filter by class 
playing a Flame Wraith Necro atm and it's pretty button intensive. what is the "Righteous Fire" equivalent in Last Epoch? (just any easy, chill, walking, or spin to win build ^^)
warpath(sentinel) is literally spin to win. just gotta hold the button and aim with the mouse. you can add buttons if you want, but dont really have to
Probably closest is something like Judgement focusing on Conscecrated Ground. But that's still a few buttons as well
really isnt an RF build. but ya judgement aura is close. wandering spirits is also kinda close, but not as good
oh it doesn't have to be RF. i just mean it as an example of something that is really simple to blast echos with ^^
only other build i've played is Shield Crash or something AGES ago (like 2/3+ years ago)
is the stress test still going on? getting a weird bug where my hydras just dont summon half the time. enemies are still able to hit me just fine though
yeah, its just a really common question. lol. nothing really that compares, but those two would be the closest. and then warpath
stress test isnt for like another 12 hours or something. wait its not even the right day. lol
so Judgement and Warpath? awesome, will check them out :>
oh, its just a bug then
i just had a bug at the end of my first Julra where you merge an exalted tier mod onto an lp unique
i sealed it but it didn't close and was uninteractable
but luckily it was just two random items and nothing important
you put the items in the divine era, and then have to swtich back to the ruined era to pick up
you weren’t able to get the item when you switched eras?
oh i have to switch to different era
yea
its sealed in there for "eternity"
i didn't attempt to switch between the two tho
Kekw
There are walking simulator builds, typically for shaman and void knight. They aren't the best in the world, but they definitely work
more so just any non-button intensive build
Flame Wraith Necro is surprisingly intense
Locust swarm is like blade vortex, but it does use some buttons
expected Flame Golems POE experience lol
Heh, I'd say solo minions are minimally button intensive if you choose to make them that way. There is a good variety in one button builds, too.
Are steam achievements coming out with the big release?
there are few 1 button builds like shaman thorn totems, but usually in LE the more buttons u press the more benefits u get, so a lot of builds can be played with 1 button but you will also miss a lot of damage or defenses from doing so
Been a while since I played, when I did coop with a friend before there were some issues, as it currently stands how does coop work? Does it progress both peoples quest states?
Don't think so. They will come eventually for sure, though.
Yeah, both people get progress on everything except corruption. There is still some jank and loading screens are a bit long, some of it has workarounds currently and hopefully 1.0 improves it a lot, since bug fixes are a big part of the release.
Anyone has this font issue?
this is probably a dumb question, but is the golden guppy the only pre-order bonus? Like can I upgrade to the ultimate edition when I'm less broke later and still get all the stuff in it?
the release date for being less broke is TBD so could be awhile xD
Yes, known issue
No setting I need to change to fix it I guess?
It's a bug. Solved for 1.0 iirc
Another question, anyhow to 'press' dialogue options with a keyboard press?
Something like space or e is commonly used in games.
I think enter for "single option" dialogues
You should have the guppy regardless if you own the base game 🙂
The pre-order items can be purchased as a separate bundle in one of the UPGRADE packs for as long as those items are in the Store!
heya, i am thinking of picking up the game this weekend, how hard is it to gear solo self found in this? are items hard to assess for a new player, i have a good bit of arpg experience in general
secondly, are there any good resources for beginner builds that go step by step?
Everybody has been gearing solo for uh... 5 years or so
so all accounts are solo
there will be trade in a month but at the same time there is a system being added specifically for solo players to do solo item farming
And most things are pretty straightforward once you have an okay grasp on the mechanics of the game. Definitely capable to learn.
`yeah i saw that it looks interesting
assessing items takes a little skill i guess?
it’s not too hard i feel
all items are just stat sticks since every affix applies globally on your character
what do you mean by that sorry
so once you understand what affixes are desirable it’s easy enough to figure out what items are good
i don’t know about step by step beginner guides though sorry
uh so like in some arpgs if an item says 50% increased armor it applies just to that item
There is no concept of "local" affixes on gear in this game, like there often is
in le everything applies to your character rather than to the item it is on
ah gotcha yeah that can be tricky
Maxroll technically does but they're a little questionable imo. I think Aaron at least has tutorial vids on mechanics, like gearing, crafting, filtering?
ah yeah maxroll will be fine i just wanna see whatthere is in terms of archetypes before i pick a class
are there any especially good builds you'd recommend that are quite solid from early on?
umbral blades
Basically anything Runemaster is very, very good right now. Umbral Blades Bladedancer is more than capable. Druid. Just in general.
it unlocks on rogue at level sixteen and is good for the entire campaign and also all endgame content
any decent pet builds?
i think people like squirrel beastmaster the most for that
but it requires a somewhat rare unique helmet
definitely farmable but not ideal for a first character
beyond that i’m not sure since i don’t like minion builds
if you like minions you can just jump on necromancer, slap every minion ability on there and yolo through until you figure stuff out, you wont have a hard time, and no rare uniques or anythign required
By pet do you mean minion in general or animal-critter-creature-things?
wdym skeletons are the cutest pet bois :3
There are no frog minions yet 
I am a bit confused, and someone might have asked it before so it's ok to link there but:
Is "Echos from the void" just the name of 1.0 or the name of the cycle thing?
frog skin for summon scorpion when
Every major update gets a name as far back as I can remember
Final update will be Last Epoch: The Final Epoch
Last Epoch: The Lastening
1.0 will have trade or no
yes
yes
oh boy
optional trade*
technically all features are optional
https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/trade-item-factions/61722
Give this a thorough read 
Hello Travelers, and welcome to our deep dive into our Trade and Item Faction systems arriving February 21st, 2024, with the Full Release of Last Epoch! We’ve got many exciting features to share with you today, so we’re providing a Table of Contents just below to help you navigate the post. While we feel confident in what we are sharing with yo...
Think he means is, if you pick CoF or MG... so "optional" but I think it is advisable to select at least one 😛
yeah i know
Dyas are you being pedantic again? 
Days has never been pedantic. Only highly specific
idk who dyas is but i would never be pedantic
I'm thinking of buying one of the edition upgrades, what I can buy with 50 EP?
Because I am on a laptop and still dying from my walk
this is why i never walk anywhere and instead use one of those floaty chair things from wall e
Any minions
God please
Then Beastmaster and Necromancer are for you. Maybe Falconer when that releases at 1.0 (we don't know a ton about this guy, very minimal info available as of right now)
Cool, pet builds always served me well as a learning frame for new arpgs
Do they have permanent minions or are they timed duration or both
Both technically
Both, also stationary ones (like totems)
BM is far more permanent
Necro has like a 50/50 split on permanenet vs temporary I'd say
Prob prefer necro theming tbh
Well I'll prob pick the game up tonight then and pop back with any Q's 🙂
I'm just gonna tell you now to avoid the Volatile Zombie builds that are topping the arena ladders right now, they're bugged beyond belief and will not function at 1.0
Ty for the heads up, is arena PvP?
no
No, it's basically wave survival
Ah ok
No, no PvP in game yet. It's like GD's crucible I think
PvP is a "in the future" thing
Gotcha
Oh yeah, that's a good comparison, nice call
Sanity survival
That or hardware, lol
Some guys play it for a longass time
Hey gang. I'm looking at picking this up. Can anyone point me to a good YouTube video that best showcases the current gameplay? Or suggest a game it's most similar to? I've played most of the notable arpgs since 2000
Hineroptera crashing at 998 
Good question, think the skill mechanic in this game is something I have not met yet... same for the very good crafting system... but others might point better examples 😛
I don't know anything necessarily for like, a "gameplay overlook" kinda thing, but Dr3adful and ActionRPG both have videos that at least showcase builds in actual gameplay.
As for comparisons to other games... Complexity wise put it between Diablo and PoE, give it a passive skill system similar to Grim Dawn, and... I honestly can't think of a comparison for the actual skill system, that's been a completely unique thing to me.
Ah I am not the only one then 😄
Core endgame system is kind of a mix between Delve in PoE and greater rifts in D3 if that makes sense, with a few dungeons for a few special mechanics (such as crafting legendary items, which are effectively uniques with extra affixes). There are plans for pinnacle bosses in some form as well.
Yeah no other game I can think of does skills like LE, where each skill has a skill tree. It's pretty hype
These are all good notes. If I'm going to enjoy it I wasn't enough depth to keep me engaged without needing 4 spreadsheets.
You definitely won't need spreadsheets unless you're working with the folks figuring out like exact boss drop rates.
There's plenty of depth to try lots of different things on every class, and it basically only expands as they add more items or rework things.
Indeed, and ingame loot filter that you can adjust on the fly... ingame guide, nothing needed like going out of the game to enjoy it
Oh yeah. In-game, in depth, (almost) fully customizable loot filter. Huge plus.
I say almost cuz there's no custom drop sounds or like lasers, but pretty much everything else
yeah true, not to forget it has one of the most in depth tooltips as well
Ctrl + Alt 
ctrl alt is actually a mad functionality
I only saw one that can match it so far, but that is a whole different system and type of game that I won't mention here. But i find tooltips that are short very useful, and these like Deias says can be expanded if needed.
Ya I'm not concerned about the custom sounds etc. I'm not likely to get too into a D3 style endgame loop where that matters more.
how much real $ is 100 Epoch Points?
10€ for eu at least
thats it wth
i'll give you 3.50
$10, but the point of those packs is full armor sets + pets totaling more than 100 EP easily
so this ultimate pack upgrade cost $30 and they are only giving us $10 worth of points come on. POE did wayyyy better in that regard
You get other cosmetics as well?
i mean you do get other stuff
It's $30 for multiple pets, multiple portals, and full armor sets.
yeah but POE gave us the full value of these cosmetics in points as well
i expected atleast half the value
Sure PoE matches the price in points but PoE also can afford to do that easily
If you want to voice your opinion to EHG directly head to #1123697853882187847 and make a post, they read them there
dang, i had to re-migrate my account somehow, mindlessly did so, hope that aint a bad thing...

Hello guys, is there level cap/story part in which i unlock cosmetics and store? I should have some bcs i bought game year ago, but when i launch game cosmetic menu is locked and also cant see any epoch points o.o
Uh... are you playing offline?
Cosmetics cant be used offline
That's the only thing I can think of
welp just upgraded to Ultimate
It's a whole thing. There's an explanation in #👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs somewhere I think
gotta be online to access online content
not connected to a server at that point
if youre playing offline
Okay gonna try launch my character online
I hope i could if i made him as offline O.O
Offline mode is planned to be truly offline and this need no connection, which means no communicating with the server which means no way of verifiying what cosmetics you own
Offline and online chars are seperate
offline mode is for when youre in the mountains at a cabin in the outhouse with no internet and a steamdeck
Offline mode is for when the snow decides I'm not allowed to have internet
Oh...thats is sad :X
if it wasnt for global chat i woul play offline exclusively to be honest, why have ping on purpose
So i need to delete my character bcs he is offline or else i wont be able to experience all content?
no?
No, you’re just missing cosmetics,leaderboards, trading and chat
keep it in case you wanna play offline. just make an online one too
What about future cycles?
All playable content will be patched into offline as well
You won't be able to trade or party ofc
So far the plan is all playable offline
Oh...thanks
Is there going to be a wipe on relaese?
you also don't need to delete it, you can just leave it there
Well still need to make new one for cosmetics... xD i even thought about buying ultimate edition
Sent to standard
No, we are currently playing the equivalent of standard
Ok, yeah im down for season's prefere it that way, any info On league/season Scheduals ?
They don't have a set in stone period but they're thinking about 3-4 months long, they've stated they will try not to conflict with others though
ohh yeah for sure, awesome super keen! 🙂 I think path of exile really set it in for how ARPG's Should maintain a playerbase 😄
Thank's For answering my question's ! peace!
Maybe you are. I'm playing exceptionally
Oh you were right, online char, got my epoch points and cosmetics... Dahm juvenile skullen looks ugly... xD
Can the movement be changed to right click instead of left click?
Because I tried changing the binding, it wouldn't let me

No
You have discovered the only binding that cannot be changed
just flip Right and left Click in mouse software hahaha
Any of you know by heart if it is already a known bug that throwing skills if you are next to a mob ... they don't work? - just wanna know if i should report or not
when in doubt always report, lets them see how regular a bug occurs
even if they are already aware
Long shot, but is there any known issue with "window resizing" the game? I was trying to play windowed for performance concerns and I mistakenly resized the window by dragging from the corners.
While the resolution updated, at some point the game froze for a bit and I even think my character somehow "teleported", because I aggroed monsters and have an explored area of the map I did not move into. See screenshot.
I've taken a look at #1123698102470189118 but didn't see anything obvious, don't know about the forum or internal database.
uh i switched to no loot filter so i could try pick this unique up but i cant at all
very confused rn
press Z
Guys how do supporter packs work? If i buy the most expensive one do i get previous rewards?
theres no "previous" rewards. you get what it states is in that pack.
e.g. the $50 pack doesn't include all lower priced pack items
value of cosmetics is simply subjective ^^
critical vulnerability says each stack increases chance to be crit by 2%, is that +2% chance or 2% incresed crit chance? didn't it used to be +10% per stack before rework?
then its base + 2
check these in game. with/without item
Maybe I should have clarified here before I reported this as a bug. I hadn't played since the multiplayer patch came out, so I hadn't made an offline character up until today. Noticed some weird behavior especially with boss fights resetting if I portaled out after they died. Here was my report:
I can restart the orion boss fight after defeating him indefinately by porting back to town after he dies then running over to his RP event. I haven't played in a minute but I don't remember things like this happening before. Maybe because I made this character "offline", it's my first offline character.
What is a good rule of thumb which Items are best to use Rune of Shatterin on?
also, i heard that the game launches soon
Crit Vuln is flat yeah
wwhats the date?
21st of Feb
Feb 21st
mainly class specific shards like +skills
you can view your materials in your inventory and get an idea which shards are rarer than others
have you played since multiplayer (0.9) was released? i dont think theres been anything major added/changed since then but i could be wronfg
Runemaster is major, I'd say
0.9.2 was RM
im leveling my 2nd marksman right now. i had the itch to play bow build on poe but theyre just too expensive to have a good build. having a blast on le now
The final Mage mastery
will feb launch with falconer/warlock?
Yup
Hey people. I guess we'll get a wipe @ launch, do we?
no
Oh. Okay
your current characters will be just legacy characters
Well... thats "kind of a wipe" then :D
its not, currently you get the same features in 1.0 as you would with a new char in cycle
excluding leaderboard participation
No way of playing them in the leaderbords tho. For me it's a wipe
Thanks for the info tho
Will the pre order stuff be pre order exclusive?
maybe we understand the word differently ^^ wipe means deletion for me, and thats a hard no
The "golden guppy" is (don't need to buy an upgrade for it, just need to own the game before 1.0). The other stuff is not.
last stupid question, but a pertinent one - if i buy the standard edition preorder i can play right away right?
on the prelaunch version of the game
ty lol
how big is the game actually my dl speed leaves a lot to be desired might be an overnight job
my steam folder says 17,5gb
no clue if there is any personal data included or not, roughly around that range
have fun
Hi,
I finished the questline and did some bashing around i'm level 75 what can I do to level to 100 faster ?
the bonus exp gain is capped at 10 lvls above yours
so in your case i would kill as much stuff as you can in a lvl 85 area if you can manage that
or just simply push through monos to get to empowered monoliths
Where I can find a level 85 area ?
reign of dragons is lvl 85 i believe
if you clear all the lvl 90 monoliths you unlock empowered monos which are baseline lvl 100
so you can try to clear that stuff, you will surely gain some lvls through that alone
oh you talk about monolith ok
ye
is there anyway to target farm certain exiled mage gear?
i have tried it ^^
kill alot of them
okay cuz leveling build from maxroll is shit despite dealing damage the gameplay is not fun at all, and i'm looking for an alternative
a viable one
runemaster is more complicated then other classes, do you like the mage type playstyle
hmm i like mage usually in ARPG but in last epoch i feel like (for rm spec) the builds offered for leveling are boring to play.. Like you basically run 3 time runic tile then use your runic invocation to spawn a turret
i mean
repetitive and easy to mess up, which is frustrating to play and kill the rythm
i've tried druid also but it just doesnt tank and doesnt deal damage (at lvl 30 atm)
maybe I have not choosen the right class for me lol
if you dont hate the idea, i would really recommend to just yeet guides as a beginner, login and play, read what your skils do, try all of them out and find smth that you enjoy
campaign is very easy and you wont struggle much, so you can dip your toes in every direction, if you find smth that you really like you can think about how to make that stronger and what other options it opens up for you
if you press G you can open up the game guide, most of the game is described there in detail, also if you hold ctrl+alt and hover over an item it will describe everything what you can see in detail
ok I feel what you pointing
might struggle tho with a self made build 😄
i'm gonna give it a try
dont worry about going the wrong way, there is only a single permanent choice you have to make, which is your specialized class, other than that you can easily respec
dont worry about it, the game is very straight forward
thanks you very much for your time 🙂
np have fun
Falconer and Warlock both should drop with 1.0 right?
I’ve been looking for a ARPG to play with my brother… I found this one but I read the reviews saying that the servers are pretty poor in quality. Are the servers still in bad shape? Should I wait till the game leaves early access? What should I do?
they are continuesly working on game stability and performance, right now some people can experience issues, i never had a problem playing with a friend outside of my own internet connection
if you really wanna make sure, launch is in 1 month with a big patch coming
worst case you buy it and try it out, steam has a 2h refund window
you can ask that question 10 people and you get 10 answers so there is nothing certain with these kind of problems
Much better than when they first came out with the multiplayer. If you're itching for an aRPG right now, the game is fantastic. If you can wait until the full release drops Feb 21st, you'll get to join in on the MASSIVE hype that will be in the air.
yea the game itself is 10/10
Awesome! Thanks for the quick response! I’ll try it out.
I’m thinking of buying this game. How much content does it provide?
do you have experience with any other arpgs like this, makes comparison easier
No I was thinking of getting into arpgs. Was deciding if I should buy diablo but then found this and got hooked lol
yes please, whatever you do
If you want to get into this genre i highly advise you to try it out instead of d4
(not biased at all)
Yh I was put off by the fact that diablo has a battlepass. Doesn’t seem roght
*right
in terms of how much content is there, this is highly dependable on what kind of player you are
you will definitely get your moneys worth in playtime, thats for sure
also there is so much content out there to show you how the game plays, what you can expect
if you did like what you saw just dive straight into it
Fair enough. I’m thinking of buying the deluxe edition. How much is 50 epoch points exactly? Like is that a lot or is it easily obtainable in the game?
Okay thanks
thats the currency they use for their mtx shop
currently there is no way to farm these ingame, thats just smth you buy to get cosmetics
depending on your llocation, for me 50points translate to 5€ you can spend in the cosmetic shop
just to be clear : outside of the base game purchase, any money you can spend in the game is 100% purely cosmetic and this will never change
Oh so it’s just cosmetic? That’s really nice to hear actually
I’m incredibly happy to hear that actually
I’m fed up with that p2w bs
yeap, no micro transaction crap like other games, you can spend your 35€ and you are good to go
That’s great! I’m buying it tomorrow lol
awesome 🙂 hope you have fun
and if you need help with anything you can always ask here or in ingame chat, you will always get an answer
Okay. Thanks for your help!
Is season 1 coming with launch?
yes
do we have any details for it
Yes, they're going to be referring to their seasons as "Cycles". The first Cycle is the two trade factions and the two unreleased masteries.
details on the two new classes will come as we get closer to launch
oh so the factions are not permanent?
they are
They're permanent
they are
for the first few cycles (seasons) they're adding permanent content
since that's what the game needs most right now
right makes sense
evergreen features are 🐐
what are the epoch points?
currency for the mtx store
ty
Has the Monolith system improved at all? or seen major changes? I just remember end game not being that enjoyable.
there have been some additions, like exiled mages that drop specific gear (mini boss encounter in monos), extra loot chests you can find in monos
Sorry for asking but does anyone else still have Lost connection issues? I can't finish my story because of this.
have you tried connecting to a different server on login? even with higher ping it might fix some connectivity/performance issues
and maybe make sure its not on your side
It's not on my side. Nothing else has this issue. I reinstalled and did check on US and other EU servers
Seen many people with the same posts on the forum and they were all unanswered so wanted to check here maybe there might have been a solution but guess not...
maybe try to open a support ticket, they might be able to assist better with technical issues
!support
Anything we can help with? We've support articles and a contact form at https://support.lastepoch.com/.
Yeah, I submitted a bug ticket so waiting for an answer. Was worth a try asking to fellow players in the meantime ^_^
hope it gets resolved soon ^^
im thinking about getting the deluxe pack but was wondering, are there any examples of what i can get with epoch points and how much of them i will need for different things?
are there items in the store now? there wasnt last time i played
thanks
there are now
no clue if these items are there to stay or when/if/how we get additional options
but this will give you somewhat of an idea what to expect
Was the time of launch known yet or just the date? Also on and offline patch simultaneously?
Just the date so far, I believe. Maybe when Feb 21st gets closer there will be a time announcement
Hi guys, im looking on both, maxroll and acyveins build and none of the lich one's use volatile zombie nor sacrifies, while all the top lich on leaderboard does.. any idea why?
most likely because its a build that only exists because of one or more bugs that people arent making long term guides around
^
Someone said the other day noon est but I’m not sure if that’s been confirmed or not
Oh so the lich build has been builded over some bugs?
Fully exploits a bug
Does anyone know if the main story will have any major changes from now until launch? Been holding off on playing because I didn't want to miss anything lol
Not sure if they've mentioned any major reworks like they did with act 1 earlier but they're always improving in it. They have confirmed that we won't be getting additional acts to the story at 1.0 though
I'd give it a go tbh
oh so basically without that "bug" the lich class wouldn't be ahead of the runemaster and sorcerer in the solo leaderboard?
Okay awesome, because I had noticed a lot had improved from when I originally tried the game so wasn't sure how far the changes would go. Def going to have a proper start tonight - thank you!
Just trying to figure out at which points its abusing
Ye
someone probably already asked this. but i want to clarify before launch. Does beta access count as a purchase or do i need to pre-order the game
it counts per the official twitter
Ok got it, so at this point if i wanna practice before the official launch im better just make a runemaster or a sorcerer if i won't be disapointed on day 1
looks like we can also do upgrades with is cool too
nice
Whenever volatile zombies explode they can cast sacrifice, the bug is that sacrifice will cast despite you have no or negative mana, causing you to be able to go into infinite negative mana, and then there is a boot affix that gives ward based on missing mana . So you get infinite ward and infinite sacrifice explosions
lol wtf
sounds like a deleted build on official launch day lol
Actually i don't know how dev's react to this kind of thing in here but thats what i would assume
yes, its on the list of important things to fix
Got it
They've said that if something is this absurd they'll most likely fix it mid cycle
Especially because it's a straight up bug
It's not an op interaction or anything
Yeah that make sense and im happy to hear that out. 😄
I love games were dev care about and also play it themselve 😄
Yup
Does the Runemaster or Sorcerer top tier build on leaderboard for solo is also based on bugs or its safe to path that way? 🙂
i couldn't say exactly what build it is as i haven't looked at them yet, but if it's not bug based build this is where ill head to ^^
all three probably safe to try out
the sorc will require more gear
and a harder playstyle
also just so you know, this isnt a game where if you dont follow a guide you are fucked
just...play the game. try shit out.
Yup ^
Yeah and i really like that, im a big poe enjoyer/grinder and i instantly got that feeling when i started this game earlier today that they tend to push you towards doing your own build tech in this game and its really nice
It's practically free to respec
yup. 95% of the time, you will end up with something not a fail
It's impossible to brick your character
and yes, respec is super easy in all but mastery
Yeah if you dislike your mastery choice you gotta start a new character but otherwise you can change anything at will basically
don’t lie to new players. you can brick your character and you do it by picking forge guard at the end of time
forge guard best guard
Details that don't matter
I would be trying some more stuff but im so unlucky that the class and "type" of gameplay that i love and was building towards is one's of the bugged one that should be fixed for the official release so i just wanted to reroll and follow a guide to be able to test and learn the engame without experiencing any problem until then haha
Well like I said you can play practically the same build without the bug
wait was there a patch?
It'll just obviously be weaker
Yeah for the new cosmetics and stuff
oh oh gotcha, didnt put that news post and an actual patch together lol
If you want some builds to look at.
LE Tools builds https://www.lastepochtools.com/builds/
LE Tools written build guides https://www.lastepochtools.com/build-guides/
Maxroll written build guides https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides
I'm not going to link the Icy Veins written guides again...
Nono, i was refering to multishot build ^^
Oh yeah that one you can't really avoid lul
yeah
well you can, just dont use flurry haha
Maybe try a mage with fireball soak or something
😭
Kinda similar playstyle but obvious thematic difference
I will make my procced fireball meteor sorc work lol
I will league start FG
thanks alot, i had the maxroll and icyveins ones but i didn't knew that lastepoch had their own build "guide" page 😮
thats alot for the info ill look into that 😄
I've made if work, just make sure you have t7 for the mana affix, if makes it quite a bit smoother
Oh the LE Tools one isn't from the LE Devs. It's made by a person named Dammit who's probably around here somewhere
so has anyone ever seen this happen? I was putting stuff in a tab, game hitched for a second, and then all the unique items duplicated back into my inv
mourningfrost, ward trail and ladle
all straight duped
Uh oh
and then all of a sudden the whole tab changed
yeah normal now
Ye
never seen that happen before
wack man
Happens if you take out or put in items while a tab is sorting
You can repro it very easily
But it's just visual
Thats why server authority is Pog
cant believe ive never seen it tbh
How does. Snapshotting work for avalanche? If i cast warcry with the cold buffs the 8 sec avaa that follows me, does every boulder for 8 seconds get the dmg boost?
I just beat Eye of storm boss at 10+ tries
but I'm wondering, can I neglect the water beam and ice circle that one shot me somehow?
my cold and lightning resistant are 70%+ even with Rebluke on, Health 1000
or those are one shot mechanic intentionally
beam attack is pretty much a one shot for 99.9% of players, do not get hit by it. circle slam hits real damn hard, also...dont get hit by it. The rest are weak
also not technically a one shot, the beam. but a LOT of heavy damage hits really fast
is there a bug with THE IMMORTAL EMPIRE quest? i have talked to the old man on top, he created the portal but nothing happens when i click on it. I also tried to releport to the Outcast Camp, but it does not work, is there any other way to get to the Outcast Camp?
I see, I was wondering if I'm not building character correctly
tyty
hm. i just unbound right click, trying to get my abilities lined up for runic invocation, thinking i could rebind it to my second ability
but when i try to bind it, it says "right click is already bound and is unavailable" even though it isn't bound
and then when i try to re-bind right click to the fifth ability like it is by default, it also says "right click is already bound and is unavailable"
and so uh, i kinda can't use my 5th ability anymore? has anyone had this happen to them?
i'll report it either way but it'd be nice if someone knows of an easy fix
yeah, even rebooting LE didn't change anything, i just permanently can't use my 5th ability on any character... :/
try resetting your keybind settings (make screenshot backups beforehand if you want an easy way to get them back)
oh im genuinely upset i didn't think of that
also if the problem persists and you haven't built up muscle memory yet you can always consider learning to play with all your abilities bound to a keyboard key
could do something like A Q W E D for skills and S for pot
oh ive def built up muscle memory lol, the problem is i finally got my build to the point where i needed a very specific runic invocation, which means having to put my abilities in a specific order on my hotbar... a different order than my muscle memory
so i figured i could just move them around and then change the hotkeys to what i was used to (so they wouldn't be in QWER order anymore)
and force move on space bar or a mouse button if you have a gaming mouse
and i def still wanted fireball on right click, but now fireball had to be the second ability, so i tried to swap right click over to ability 2 and viola, bug
yeah I guess it's a big oof
the fact that i have to put fireball on W means static has to go on right-click and i have to redo my muscle memory completely 😦 kinda wish this node worked differently, maybe if we could pick the runes with a UI element instead of it just inheriting from the ability order on the bar
how do other people deal with this i wonder? surely lots of runemasters reach this point where they need a specific invocation every single time, and grab this node, and then run into the same problem
idk about runemasters, but when I was playing diablo 3 I liked playing archon builds. And when turned into archon you couldn't change the order of your skills. So what I ended up doing is putting all my teleport/movement skills on all my characters on the same place the archon blink was by default
so maybe the answer is planning ahead
hey guys really struggling to play the game with all the connection lost issues. Is there anything i can do to fix this on my end or is it completely their issue.
How to play while keep disconnecting after 5min, anyone know how to fix that?
Swap servers.
@lament blade you as well
maybe it is on their side and will be fixed in a few days
I tried 3 sv but it not help
Back to the game afer few month i dont remmember its happened before
yeah ive heard alot of server issues with this game and its the worst part i really hope im not one of the fucked ones
sorry to hear you have this as well
Yeah I'm having a bunch of issues right now and it's very unfortunate
friend told me there was gonna be a free twitch drop on release but didn't give me a date... can someone tell me the dates?
cheers!
is there any spec/build that uses attunement?
Yeah, Primalist uses attunement a lot and there's a couple Judgement Paladin builds that use it for mana stacking
ty
Hey how you dual wield in this game? I have 2 gladius one handed swords but cannot equip them both
What class are you?
ranger
why my Blazing Flux doesnt reduce cooldown of Flame Rush, is it bugged?
ohh theres passive to get that cool thanks!
This passive in the blade dance tree
yep found it thank you
Which one would you guys choose
for the left one, I can level up flat dmg and crit chance further at higher levels
Do you mind posting the node?
The feather seems better
for now yes, but after upgrading left one might be even better
here they are
how to verify it?
Ok, wanted to know this, thanks
Yesterday - after some break with a game I did something really stupid
In steam game list, right click over the game
deleted empty cathegory in tabs - but those tabs holded data from my primalist and mage
any chance to restore those tabs on offline mode ?
it seems like renamed tabs were empty but they holded data from my current tabs
the best thing about it is that removing empty cathegory in tabs removes them and gold spent on them is also lost
wtf
thanks, I see it
Let me ask one more question, I'm currently playing hydrahedron, will it be scaled by casting speed?
Can somebody explain me how are shards used
In example i want to apply inc phys dmg on my white sword and i have absolutely 0 idea
how it works
oh ok nvm figured it out lol
90% sure it does
oh thanks, btw flame rush still happened, im trying to redownload the game 😦
So do we get Warlock and Falconer on release?
Yes
noice
Hello, I have a question 🙋♂️ ! I tried Last Epoch during the early access but as I have chronic wrist pain I can’t play arpg with kb / m, so I tried LE with controller but I did not have a smooth experience. Gameplay was pretty good but inventory management was really lacking. Have there been improvement for the release ?
Hi all! Please tell me is this just an online game or with a career? If it's a career, is there a co-op mode or something like that? How does it work online here?
yeap there are controller improvements coming with 1.0
what do you mean with career
like titan quest
you mean offline mode?
ye
yea there is a true offline mode on 1.0 release
right now you have to login once through steam online and then go offline
co-op is only available for online paly though
so no lan offlien support
Career... First time I've heard that in reference to this genre
Got it, thank you very much)
Did the devs confirm they will fix the 10 second long loading screen when transitioning zones? Really the only thing thats offputting to me and my friend who play in a duo
#👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs message
They're trying
Fingers crossed then, don't take it with a negative tone, I am loving the game so far but it will be DoA if that isnt fixed on 1.0 release, offline mode I've had no hickups so far, everything is instant
Well yeah. It's offline, it just has to load the files and that's reliant on your system and nothing else
is there an option to increase the text size of items dropping or a like loot button in the works? (Press A to loot) i find it hard to click lol
well you can make it wider if you tell the game to drop items with full name i guess
No loot button afaik, you can emphasize in filter but might not be enough for your purposes
youll get used
just when u go fast and want to pick something specific up i fail alot and just stand there and die instead lol
a loot button would be bliss tho is all im saying 😄
im not saying auto loot by that btw
yeah i got used to it in torchlight infinite this league
exactly
looting in torchlight is the smoothest of any arpg
@steel merlin did u enjoy the league?
Has anyone else experienced this on linux
yes, i have played on the steam deck (offline) and it deleted my char after it crashed and you cant see the map and some items.
just play on windows
Not an option for me sadly
I guess I’ll try to run the game through proton
That’s a shame. I saw it was natively supported
Proton is the usual method afaik
Are the servers off?
no
Are there no cosmetics in offline mode?
correct
i just crashed randomly then when trying to get back in all my characters crash my game before loading in. I verifyed intergity of game files close some background applications and even restarted my pc any other ideas no how to fix this?
Swap server
i'll give it a shot.
No idea why that worked but it did, thank you very much!
No prob. I don't know the reason why it works either but it has been working for people lately
Do the pets do anything? collect gold?
@true depot Nope
@true depot Gold is already AoE based while looting so not really a need of it
In the monolith, as far as echoes go, does it matter which direction I go?
No
hi , i am new to this game , totally have no experience
what if i finish some map in main story line , can i still go back to that map to help my friend and play together ?
If we buy the game pre-1.0, do we still get a soundtrack DLC for free on launch? The announcement only mentions the “Golden Guppy” Baby Chronowyrm cosmetic and doesn't mention the soundtrack. Am I misremembering this or did it used to say on the store page a long time ago that you get an exclusive pet as well as the soundtrack DLC when you buy the game pre-1.0?
Yes you can
There was a pet (some kind of skullen), I don't remember the soundtrack
I got the pet but not the soundtrack and I bought the game around 2 years ago
oh okay thanks
The soundtrack DLC has not been released yet and I could swear that I read somewhere that you get the DLC as soon as the game releases in 1.0 if you bought the game before that (any edition, back when there were no editions), maybe on that screenshot on the store page? Will do some digging if I find it mentioned somewhere
*alongside that pet thing
the ultimate and deluxe is worth it ?
I believe so, but that's just me.
I got 600+h in the game
they are better than the supporter packs and cheaper
I think the pet I got from getting the game in beta is the one on the left here, I just got the base game.
How did one get the one all the way on the right?
The pets don't do anything. Just a cosmetic that follows you around.
There were different supporter packs years ago https://twitter.com/LastEpoch/status/1124414492178300928
Oh snap
I forgot about those
I passed because I got kickstarter
But I just bought ultimate pre order because its just too good
but i can play the game without delux and ultimate package right ?
yes of course
Yes, those just give you cosmetic items.
okay nice i am interested in the non-trading system thats all
The devs have been very clear that all MTX are only cosmetic. There's going to be no pay to win crap going on.
now still beta ? how long does 1 cycle last ?
will the progress from EA be removed when the full game comes out or not?
Nope
You can play right now if you want. The 1.0 version releases on Feb 21st. I don't know if they said the duration, but if it's anything like the other ARPGs, probably 3-ish months, give or take. PoE leagues are typically 13 weeks, for example. I imagine it will be something like that.
great 🙂 thank you
No, they're just going to have the first season/league that they're called Cycles. You can create a new character for that, if you want, and it will have a separate ladder. No characters will be deleted. When the Cycle ends, if you made a Cycle character it will be moved into the regular/legacy game mode. Very similar to PoE leagues or D3 seasons.
No precise information rn, but they have said we can expect something like 3-4 months
HI, I'm fairly new and just wanted to ask. Is going full physical a bad idea?
I was just planning to do a rive paladin with holy aura. Maybe lunge for movement shield bash for CC and rebuke for a quick nuke.
I don't really want to watch a guide or build guide since I want to make my own build and wanted to get some suggestions.
Regarding my earlier question whether you receive the soundtrack DLC if you buy the game in Early Access, I find some conflicting evidence regardíng that. There seems to be some consensus in 2021 that you do get the soundtrack DLC just for buying the game in Early Access, like https://www.reddit.com/r/LastEpoch/comments/m8891c/comment/grgl2a5/
Other sources like https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/any-recent-information-about-releasing-the-ost-somewhere/39724/2 and https://support.lastepoch.com/hc/en-us/articles/1260805146710-Downloading-The-Soundtrack are more vague or directly link receiving the soundtrack to purchasing a supporter pack.
I could swear that in Early Access, there used to be this little image with the Skullen pet as well as the (not yet existing) soundtrack DLC telling you that you receive these for free if you just buy Last Epoch in Early Access. Haven't found said image anymore though, even tried looking at SteamDB to see if they enable one to access like previous versions of the store page but didn't manage to find something.
Thankfully, respeccing in this game is very painless. You can change everything except for your base class and chosen mastery. Skills you can change at any time at no cost. The newly selected skill will be a minimum skill level that increases as you level and you just level up the new skill. Passives cost the in game gold to respec, and you'll have a ton of gold. You can respec passives in towns from the NPC with a brain/head icon.
just to add to that, nothign wrong with your plans, try it out and see how far you can push it 🙂
Yes there was, example https://twitter.com/LastEpoch/status/1124414492178300928 When I bought the game I got that little Skullen pet.
Yeah definitely try out whatever build you want to play. The campaign is not that difficult, especially if you're experienced at ARPGS, and there's just a couple bosses that may give you trouble. Lagon and Majasa usually.
Thank you, that's the one I meant! I did buy the Ardent Gladiator one that comes with the soundtrack. Crossing fingers then since I didn't see it mentioned anywhere (well, technically they only said you get access to the soundtrack, e.g. through account management, not that you get the actual DLC on Steam),
Yeah that's also what I got
Thanks, the respecing isn't really bad as I noticed and hopefully going full physical won't be that bad 😄
Those of you wondering if the pre order packs are worth it, i think the Pre Order packs are better than the Kickstarter packs and imo it should be the other way around, for example I got this in a 75 dollar kickstarter pack
now you can get this in a 15 dollar pre order pack
you think its worth it to play this game that reset every 3 -4 months ? and i mostly only play like 3 hours a day , can i reach all content ?
It's way easier to respec in LE than in PoE. Don't have to get a special respec currency item or anything.
You can also just play in the regular game mode. The Cycles where you make a new character is optional. Similar to PoE Leagues or D3 Seasons. Also your characters won't be deleted or anything. If you play Cycle the character is just moved to the regular game mode when the Cycle ends.
Isn't that just because they got better at making models
Could be, still stings
how long was kickstarter ago, 6 years? longer? alot of things change in that period
i am attacted to the No-Trade game mode
Also the guppy is free, not from pack, I know it makes it worse for you but I have to point it out
you are not missing out on any content cause of cycles, and you keep your characters even after cycle
The Guilded Chronowryn was not free
Yes?
thanks for the info @wicked plover , whats the different playing in cycle or regular server if both doesnt missing out any content ?
Just a willing reset
May I ask what do pets do?
Look cute
They look nice.
The first couple Cycles it sounds like they are going to have the same content in both regular game and Cycle mode
I'll go get the Mike screenshot
Just cosmetic, follows you around.
Nah. EHG has promised they will not put power nor convenience behind a paywall
What's with this week and pet looting questions
Idk
cause its common in other games
D3 too
Poe in china I guess
They pick up and salvage most of what's on the ground
We don't talk about China client
D3 does? Huh
Yeah since the last 2 seasons
@native sail thanks alot 
I wish I had someone to sit in my chair and click all the mouse buttons and keyboard keys for me, so I could get that true arpg power fantasy
I do have a friend that keeps saying that it would be nice to have in arpgs the follow character option that some mmos have
Like dude, you are just making me not want to play with you
It's called QoL

Quit on life?
lol wtf why
Points at the disaster that is disgaea 6
ngl that would make aurabotting in poe literally botting 
so basically , the items that havent tweak will be OP if moved to regular server
So he can have a smoke while playing

what? xd
Thank you for the replies. BTW if I bought the game last year do I get a freee pet? 😄
like same as POE ?
no
if you have a unique, and they nerf it
the unique you have also gets nerfed
not just the ones that drop after the nerf
OH
Gorgas you get the golden guppy, congrats
so there is no legacy item ?
there kinda is but not really no
Some items have 3 suffixes ^^
sometimes they'll change affixes and create bugged "legacy" normal items
The only legacy items that have existed so far are exalted/rare items where an affix got removed and replaced with something else as consequence
^
i have a T7 armour ring
Legacy items will be untradable by devs words
i'm kinda cool
