[timid hemlock]

Could someone explain the factions a bit more to me? Specifically, how does it work when you change the factions?

Let's say I play Circle of Fortune up to lvl 60, and then I want to actually play trade. I know I can swap to Merchant's Guild, but at what cost?

Also, for the Merchant's Guild, is this just like trading to NPCs? Or is there actually going to be a trade market between people.

[sharp current]

The cost is that you can no longer use any items tagged CoF. Same goes for swapping the other way. Can't use MG items.

Trading is between players

[surreal verge]

Each faction has their own faction rank. Also the trade is with other people, not NPCs.

[timid hemlock]

oh wow, so I basically can't lvl CoF until 60 and then swap it sounds like? Since I would just be naked and have no items when I swap?

or specific items from CoF will be tagged, so I just couldn't use (let's say) a bow that I found from CoF

[storm blaze]

Not all items will roll with the CoF tag
so you could get some equipment before changing

[sullen heath]

how do i reset Acolyte passives?

[analog spire]

This, only items found through the perks of CoF will be tagged, there will be plenty of items dropping normally without tag

[echo gyro]

is there anti cheat in the game? "online mode"

[storm blaze]

ofc there is

[elfin scaffold]

New player here, just started a char yesterday 4 hours deep i log in today and my char is gone? any ideas?

[toxic echo]

!support

[ripe brook]

Need a hand? Just head on down to https://support.lastepoch.com/ for support articles or to reach out to us directly.

[hasty tartan]

What will reputation for MG give if not ability to sell certain item types?

[timid hemlock]

ah okay thank you. Appreciate that. It'll be interesting to see which one is "better". The CoF just looks insanely good. But yeah the convenience of trading will be great.

Also, I know this isn't necessarily known yet (I don't think), but what are we looking at being tradeable currency? Like poe = chaos/divs. But what would I trade for unique items here? Idols? Runes? Glyphs?

[hasty tartan]

Gold

[lusty kelp]

Be sure to check both the offline and online characters, you may have forgotten where you created it. If it's not in either of them, contact support, yeah.

[grand marten]

Does the 'Apostacy' passive for Bladedancer work? It does not show anything different in the character sheet when I picked it.

[sharp current]

The system definitley encourages you to pick one and stick with it. That said if you started a 2nd character you could focus on the other faction with it if you wanted to.

[hasty tartan]

Lightless arbor farming meta inc?

[vale bolt]

hello guys me and my friend want to play together but i cant invite him its not working can someone help

[timid hemlock]

I gotcha, that makes sense. I'll have to see how I'm feeling about it. I'm about 140 hours deep into the game, and I just remember thinking "wow, it would be really nice to just buy Reign of Winter (for example) rather than having to wait forever to get it". So I'll prob just have to go with the trade guild 😄

[elfin scaffold]

so i jsut tried making another charcter then walked around some and went back and he is gone too...

[keen dust]

i feel like i always have same drops . any idea ?

[sharp current]

Are you creating characters in offline or online? The option at the top right of the character select screen.

[elfin scaffold]

online

i checked all the options

[toxic echo]

there seems to be an issue with you and the server. nothing anyone can really do here. reach out to support that you were linked earlier. likely wont hear back until monday though, and at that point you may as well wait until 1.0 since servers are coming down tuesday

[surreal verge]

Brain NPC

[toxic echo]

you are the second person i have heard of with some rollbacks over the past two days tho, so you are not alone

[sullen heath]

are all characters getting wiped on 1.0 release anyway?

[sharp current]

https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1187326924754788362

[terse roost]

oh neat ty

[elfin scaffold]

NOW my 2 lvl 1 chars are there i made but not my main lol... what?!

[hardy fossil]

Is there any reason I shouldn't delete my soon to be 'legacy' characters if I only plan to play cycles in the future? Cycle 1 does come with launch, right?

[fluid echo]

Can i help a friend to skip campaing? (i already done it), i mean doing the first dungeon with him to skip his campaig to chapter 9?, after that helping him with lvl in my Echoes?

[grand marten]

Does the 'Apostacy' passive for Bladedancer work? It does not show anything different in the character sheet when I picked it.

[sharp current]

Can keep them for testing things, but if you never plan to play them no reason to keep them. Up to you really.

[hardy fossil]

I guess the real question is if there will be a 'legacy' or 'cycle filter' in the character list.

[sharp current]

I would assume so

[jade helm]

Is there a faster way to level at level 33?
I'm underleveled for the part of the campagin im at

[sharp current]

Or they'll have some kind of identifier on the character select screen to identify cycle characters. I don't know if that's been asked before. Good question for #👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs

[hardy fossil]

Yeah, I asked. Thank you! 🙂 I will assume there will be one for now, but I don't want to make extra traffic deleting characters on launch day either. I also don't want a situation where I get queued and log into the wrong character and lose my pto hours to the queue lol. 😛

[crude jewel]

the passive node "preparations" from runemaster says "Every 3 seconds, your next elemental spell deals increased damage and ... " how does this work with frost wall for the dmg over time? is every tick also increased? or is only the inital dmg of the spell that was cast increased?

same with glyph of dominion

[zinc finch]

Hey, does anyone have the problem of constantly losing the connection to the server?

[ripe bronze]

Is there a gallery somewhere with the skin/MTX?

[surreal verge]

It isn't reflected in the char sheet currently, known visual bug.

[pallid wave]

wassup guys is anybody else getting a zoomed view all the way ? lol

[sharp current]

#news message That's about as close as there is currently.

[echo gyro]

guys is there anti cheat for online characters? and my second question will online character get reset on 1.0 release?

[sage shale]

I hope game gets enginner class in future xd

[storm blaze]

ofc there is anticheat. what kinda question is that
and no reset.

[outer mango]

so he can cheat online ofc

[sage shale]

no reset but alot of people will play seasons which is fresh start

[echo gyro]

idk i saw plenty of early access ARPGs having shitty online leaderboards and busted mp lobbies lol

[echo gyro]

why would I? lmao

[outer mango]

sorry bad joke

[echo gyro]

all good ❤️

[sage shale]

why wouldn't you

[echo gyro]

it ruins the fun in ARPGs 😦

[sage shale]

true xd

[pallid wave]

cheaters cheat for the fun of cheating

don't ask me how i know that xD

[karmic ice]

I just got to empowered monoliths but I feel like I'm not being able to drop good items at all, do you have any resource on how to get more good stuff?

[pallid wave]

[dapper swift]

Look first if you did your filter well

[karmic ice]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/0oNzN27o I'm using the filter from this build so I assume it's good enough? 😅

Sometimes RNG just screws you out of items. Keep grindin'.

[dapper swift]

Now I can't really see it, but I always did my filters as well but keep an eye out, you never know

[sharp current]

You can temporarily disable the filter to ensure nothing is dropping that you'd want. Filters are pretty easy to make. Definitely worth taking the time to figure them out so you can customize them yourself.

[marsh laurel]

does Spirit Plague gain damage from flat added damage? I don't see an 'added damage effectiveness' stat anywhere on lastepochtools

[whole lagoon]

is it a thing to kill level 100 monsters as like level 60 or is that a BAD idea

[surreal verge]

Yes. I think only in-game alt text has it.
(If it doesn't list it, it's 100%)

[surreal verge]

If you can, why not?

[cursive delta]

What is Frailty?

[whole lagoon]

im doing monoliths idk if its a thing people do a lot or if i should level up other places before doing that

i am new to game

[tough glacier]

makes enemies do less damage

[lusty kelp]

An ailment that causes the target to deal 6% less damage, can stack up to 3 times.

[surreal verge]

It's the default end-game

[vague cloak]

If i make 2 filters that are almost identical but the first one is shown with a color at 2 affixes and the other i want is the same but another color and 3 affixes. So which one is higher in the list?

[cursive delta]

Nice, thank you brothers!!! ❤️

[gritty lintel]

will the game be unplayable on the 20th, even offline?

[sharp current]

Even offline

[dapper swift]

The 3 affix one should be first

[sharp current]

But 1.0 will come with true offline mode so it wont be an issue in the future.

[dapper swift]

I remember putting Show all uniques, and bricking my "red" uniques rules

[low dagger]

Other than ladder, is there a really compelling reason to play the first cycle?

[balmy current]

Still nope.

[crude jewel]

@surreal verge you know that maybe? the passive node "preparations" from runemaster says "Every 3 seconds, your next elemental spell deals increased damage and ... " how does this work with frost wall/glyph of dominion for the dmg over time? is every tick also increased? or is only the initial dmg of the spell that was cast increased and it does nothing for both skills?

[dark lion]

hello

[balmy current]

Yes, if it's an elemental spell then it will deal increased damage

[crude jewel]

holy

[surreal verge]

It's generic increased damage. It'll affect the whole spell by default. Just like a "Increased elemental damage" stat

[crude jewel]

with glyph and the 0.5 per sec +3 ignite thats so much dmg lol

[oak bridge]

are the characters tied to the story? so the sorc will always be a white old man, or eventually we'll be able to create our chars?

[crude jewel]

thanks

[surreal verge]

https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1161420614599446558
Currently yes. They're "the mage"

[vale thistle]

the playable characters all have stories, they aren't just nameless mooks

[low dagger]

Really short stories

[oak bridge]

ok thanks

[buoyant sky]

it will be first season at 1.0 same with content,rewards,quests etc for legacy and cycle characters or there will be difference ?

[vale thistle]

I'm pretty sure the mage was actually the acolytes mentor or something, maybe I'm misremembering though

[pastel pebble]

I think so

[crude jewel]

whats a high number for stack of ignites? 100? more?

[surreal verge]

All the same, no seasonal only content.

[vale thistle]

ol grandpa mage teaching the younger generation

[outer mango]

you asked this on other channel minutes ago and got 2 answers, why to ask here too

[unique magnet]

would "elemental penetration with frost claws" also apply to frostbite inflicted by frost claws?

[whole lagoon]

Why does my critical strike Chance show up as 0? Do all the items that are supposed to give me critical strike chance not actually do anything?

[dapper swift]

The most you can get is nice while doing good dmg per dot

[balmy current]

Way more, several hundred at least.

[balmy current]

You've equipped a unique that disables crit

[toxic echo]

the visual cap is 999 which is very attainable on some builds. 400-500 is probly more common on good dot builds

https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1205212339654234153

you can try doing some of the things in here. there is also a chance that things just get fixed with the 1.0 updates. also a chance that its neither you or the games fault and there is an issue with the routing inbetween(which is what the vpn normally fixes).

[neat gull]

I'm playing with my GF, and we started together at level 1. Does we both get progress on the campaign or how is that handled?

any idea why i cant click on Keeper Balthas? i cant pass this step... https://i.imgur.com/ApFtr0q.png

[unique magnet]

mostly asking cuz I've heard that modifiers to the base skill also apply to status inflicted by them. but that might be purely for their tree passives

[sharp current]

Did you kill the boss?

[sullen heath]

i did but looks like he is alive again AND i cant go back to the boss

[sharp current]

Unfortunate, exiting the game and going back to that point should fix it. Sucks to have to redo it.

[sullen heath]

np, will do it. relog didnt fix it.

[dark lion]

thank you very much @toxic echo ❤️ just a question about this option to use VPN

[sullen sand]

Hello ... I've had early access since last summer. Should I wait till Tuesday to start a new character or am I okay starting over the weekend?

[sullen heath]

leave/exit didnt fix it. should i delete character? 😄

[toxic echo]

it comes recommended from the CM's here, so I would assume its considerably safe. i have not used it myself tho

[sharp current]

I'd at least make a bug report first, then you can decide to make a new one. At least its an early game bug.

[sharp current]

Up to you, if you play now your character will just move to legacy and still be able to play all the new content in 1.0. If you prefer to start fresh with everyone playing the cycle then you should wait.

[hushed wasp]

are katanas just rarer drops overall? or is there a monolith that has higher chances to drop katanas?

[whole lagoon]

do stash tabs transfer between characters

[crude jewel]

do i see it right on the dummy; a homing missile (3-5) only 2 of them can hit the same enemy?!

[sharp current]

Stash tabs are bound to the account/game mode. So all regular SC characters will have the same stash and stash tabs.

Cycle SC though you will have to unlock tabs again

Or whatever mode you play on

[whole lagoon]

yay, so what happens to the stuff when it goes from seasonal to regular do you get more tabs

[sharp current]

They haven't decided how they'll handle that yet as far as I last read.

[unique sonnet]

Does Spell Damage matter at all to all pet necros?

[buoyant sinew]

no

minions only use stats that specifically say they work on minions

[peak orbit]

can someone confirm if the "lethal thicket" node for summon thorn totems which increases crit strike chance updates the value in LEtools planner?

[cursive delta]

Is there any way to change the cursor color? I lose mine a lot XDDDD

[unique sonnet]

yolomouse

[dry sparrow]

For first playthrough does it make more sense to play offline or online? Guessing online lets you do trading etc

[jaunty gust]

How do I check how much critical chance I have including my gear?

[toxic echo]

gear should show on the c menu, if its a global chance. for specific skills, gotta math.

[acoustic thicket]

Guys got tearing since today. Any advice. Settings just showing a, b or c nor explaining what it means

[jaunty gust]

But I have a lot of critical chance gear and it only shows 11% on my C menu

[sly lava]

what's your base?

[jaunty gust]

What is a base

[sly lava]

base crit

[jaunty gust]

How do I see that

[sly lava]

you hover over crit

[jaunty gust]

5%

[surreal verge]

Do you have increased critical chance? That works off your base 5% crit chance

[sharp current]

Added and Increased crit chance are 2 different things.

[sly lava]

so you need more added/base crit so your increased is worth more

[surreal verge]

100% increased crit chance = 5% x 200%= 10% crit chance

[sharp current]

A lot of gear is increased which isn't a flat increase.

[jaunty gust]

How do I get that

[sly lava]

note: that doesnt take into account active stuff. there are passives with active abilities that wont show up until you use them. idk what class youre doing though

[jaunty gust]

Spellblade

[sly lava]

check for stuff that gives crit vuln, or if any of your crit nodes are active that give added/base crit

crit vuln is what, 20% base @ 10 stacks iirc?

[fluid echo]

Can i help a friend to skip campaing? (i already done it), i mean doing the first dungeon with him to skip his campaig to chapter 9?, after that helping him with lvl in my Echoes?

[open pier]

Is it possible to move elements of the UI around? My active pets/minions are to the far top left of my screen. I would like to move that to the top of my action bar

[toxic echo]

pretty sure crit vuln is a rogue only thing

[toxic echo]

no. but good #1123698164503949392

[whole lagoon]

what is the limit on stash tabs

[sharp current]

Its basically what Eagles said, you'll have to math out the crit chance for anything beyond your base crit chance on the character menu.

[toxic echo]

200

[whole lagoon]

thats a lot 😮

so it always doubles gold cost though? ouchies

[wide sentinel]

why would u ever go offline, unless living in the woods or smth similar?

[jaunty gust]

So its not probably a good thing to build crit chance at the beggining, right?

[sly lava]

yeah prob not

[woeful comet]

Did Tywin Lannister survive, travel to the lands beyond Asshai, and decide to learn and practice magic to become a mage?

Is there a keybind for "stand still" like in Diablo 3? I like to hold shift to stop moving around

[buoyant sinew]

shift does that for using skills at your current location but doesn't actually stop you moving on its own, no way to do that

[neat gull]

ah damn 😦 Oh well, better than nothing i guess

I'm seemingly permanently stuck at "Entering Thetima". restarted the game, went back, and still stuck. anyone has had a similar problem and found a fix?

[outer mango]

cycle starts at launch yes

what happens on launch we'll see

[molten matrix]

is there any info on what the cycle does / brings ?

[outer mango]

couple new classes and alot of improvements etc

[molten matrix]

no I mean

[outer mango]

there is no seasonal theme in 1st cycle if you mean that

[molten matrix]

thats what I meant

[jaunty gust]

Why are some letters and numbers with a white background?

[barren crow]

I noticed that too

[outer mango]

should be fixed on launch

[zealous orchid]

Is it ok if I use a maxroll loot filter but I don't use the build guide?

[outer mango]

why not

[analog spire]

No harm as a starting point, but the filters are very intuitive to use and are worth spending the little bit of time to get used to how to make your own ones for the build you are playing

[lyric shore]

true that price will drop to 15 Euros on release ?

[outer mango]

no

[sharp current]

[zealous orchid]

Well I want to go in blind for my skills and upgrade them but don't really feel comfortable creating my own loot filter

[sharp current]

This isn't PoE, filters are much more intuitive to create.

Its definitely worth taking 10 minutes to figure out

Hmm might do it then idk

[sharp current]

https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1205212339654234153 You can try the things listed here but connection issues should hopefully be resolved with 1.0

Nope.

No.

[solar rampart]

Then i try to play with this bug 😦

[inland jetty]

is it possible to bring enemies below 0% res?

[low dagger]

Just trying bow flurry. Seems to be really buggy?

[lusty kelp]

Bow attacks are a bit iffy atm, it is fixed for launch.

[native sail]

Yeah, unless explicitly stated somewhere enemies innately have zero resistance.

[inland jetty]

ah ok 👍

[hasty tartan]

Is it just me, or is it hard to find flat spell damage for minions?

[solar rampart]

What do i need Shards and Glyph of Hope for? Can i "Transfer Crafting Items" always or what to do?

[hasty tartan]

I know there's a body armour for primalist that gives it and a prefix for storm crows, but otherwise idk

Shards/glyphs/runes are for crafting - you can always transfer them.

[solar rampart]

Always alywas? or often? 😄 If you say so, ill just hit transfer all the time now.

[hasty tartan]

Always always, they're not tradeable

[brave path]

always transfer

its account based anyway so no reason not to

that little mini storage for them*

[solar rampart]

I droped my first unique. im level 8. Its a shield. "Close Call". Is this a good Item?

[barren crow]

I haven't seen it used much but it might help you

Read the stats on it and decide if they synergize with what you're doing

[outer mango]

its nice for melee starters

[solar rampart]

I play thorn totem shaman. i guess 😄 thats what looks beginenr friendly on maxroll. Do i scale damage alot by getting better weapon? or on skill-levels? how to increase damage seginificantly?

[outer mango]

lots of dodge

[sharp current]

I don't believe there is an affix that is flat minion spell damage. Lots of % spell damage mods but not flat. There are things like Minion Phys or Minion Fire, etc.

[hasty tartan]

Thanks, looking for ways to scale damage more on the storm crows - lagon took me a bit

As 20 flat would literally double their damage if LETools is right?

[sour wind]

are there any classes that are "dead ends?" Like they can't do high corruptions or they do mid corruptions slowly?

[barren crow]

Just looked at the maxroll build. You want minion/totem buffs with damage, physical damage, spell damage, and crit

You're supposed to spam healing totems because they'll shoot a thorn as soon as they're summoned with the build

[solar rampart]

i do not have healing totems form now. or this spirit-form. idk when to get.

[whole lagoon]

does % increased spell damage affect fireball sorcerers or is that other types of damage

[barren crow]

Fireball is a spell, spell damage increases buff it

before it i played with glacier. and i saw it dmg in its window. and understood what staff gives more. and here i cant see its dmg. help me plz to understand. thnks !

[unique gate]

Is it possible to get an Exalted drop with two T6+ Affixes?

[hasty tartan]

Yes, but pretty rare.

[unique gate]

I reached empowered monos now and get a feeling for crafting Legendary items and I gotta say - the grind is real sheeeeeeeeeeeeeesh

[molten matrix]

is there any way to delete or re-structure the stash?

[whole lagoon]

how does the game calculate total spell damage though lets say i had 10% fire damage and 10% spell damage does it do +20% or 10% and then another 10% ontop of the 110 making it 122%

[crystal fractal]

does the vault at the end of the lightless arbour scale with difficulty?

[brave path]

what do you mean getting stuck under the map?

[magic stream]

first time running a runemaster and loving it but I get inconsistent rune generation while channeling flame rush. also it feels pretty buggy not procing runic invocation from time to time. I'm running hydra build, can see one lighting and two fire runes and nothing happens when I finish channeling the rush. all that with pretty much full mana. is this stuff bugged?
feel like it got much worse in the last hour of gameplay. the rush finishes and the runes remain unused

[dapper swift]

It prob scales with area level to give you better items so yeah

[sly lava]

does anyone know if something like Sanguine Obsession in Puncture (Converts poison chance from all sources to bleed chance) mean from everywhere, or just within the skill?

assuming just the skill

[brave path]

thats a bug ive never seen..make sure you report it...does it happen every time? what triggers it?

[tidal vine]

Is there a file like production_Config.ini in poe, that has all menu settings saved? For example keybinds. I play on different devices from time to time and having to redo all keybinds is annoying. Is there any way to backup and restore, like in poe?

[brave path]

ok so can you volatile reversal out of the ground? and dont use shield rush on that map it seems

that is what is triggering you to fall

also make sure you report this in game and/or at https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1123698102470189118

that is crappy =/...that boss fight has always been buggy...this is a new one that i havent seen (ive also used shield rush)...make sure you report it as game breaking etc

[dapper swift]

skip the map

[toxic echo]

the longer you hold the channel, the more runes you get. you may be holding too long/not enough. there are also runes combinations that do not go off unless there are enemies nearby.

however if you think you found a bug, report it using the ingame tool.

[dapper swift]

Welp, I tried

[spiral comet]

Can u trade affix shards and glyph on 1.0?

[brave path]

it might take longer but maybe swap shield rush with something else for now? or use your #2 skill?

[dapper swift]

Well you always destroy gear that you bought for shards right? But no for the other stuff like runes

[spiral comet]

Hmm niceee

[magic stream]

like I said in my comment: there are exactly one lightning and two fire runes which should result in hydra. sometimes it's proced by flame rush, sometimes it's not. also, sometimes the runes are consumed but nothing happens - no hydra

[toxic echo]

like i said...if you think you found a bug, use the ingame reporting tool to report it

[magic stream]

gotcha

[brave path]

i mean yaaaah...but cant kill it if you are dead/stuck in the ground

trust me i get it...ive hit some bugs before that wrecked my whole builds...just gotta try and get around it for now...but make sure you report it so they can get it fixed...that is a pretty bad one

[misty laurel]

how do i target farm class specific items? e.g. acolyte armor

[toxic echo]

play acolyte. general gear is weighted towards your current class

uniques are not weighted

[misty laurel]

i am acolyte.

[brave path]

^ and find echoes that are "rare/exalted chest piece" etc

[jade helm]

does anyone know if my current char will be able to trade on 1.0?

[toxic echo]

in legacy and online, yes

[jaunty gust]

is it possible to automatically grab crafting materials from the floor? like gold

[toxic echo]

eventually, maybe. at 1.0, no

[misty laurel]

for non uniq/set items. only helmet/armor/relic are class specific? others are not?

[brave path]

idk if they have moved from this mindset...but they didnt want affix shards to be auto pick ups like gold...they want it to be a meaningful choice to stop and actually pick them up or move passed them

[karmic pulsar]

Is there a way to fix the unity crach that happens after you choose your character?

[toxic echo]

depends on the cause. restarting the client and pc could both help. verifying steam files as well. those would be the common fixes

[wicked plover]

correct

[jaunty gust]

@toxic echo @brave path Thank you

[brave path]

np 🙂

[toxic echo]

well, some of those are. some unique items have no class requirement in those types

[dense iron]

So im on my first character that im trying to get to 100, im currently level 80 and running the last monolith before empowered. is it gonna go faster leveling with echos once I hit empowered. this is taking forever lol. almost one level per hour

[brave path]

sadly...not really...it will pick up for a bit but once you get to like 90ish...it will slow down to a lvl every hour or 3 depending...im 98 and it typically takes like 2-3 hours for a lvl

[karmic pulsar]

I have done all of those. When I choose my character it says connecting and then the unity picture comes up then it crashes.

[dapper swift]

How do I calculate the attack speed of something?

[amber hazel]

Hi, is there a way to change Left click to Righ click mouse?

[toxic echo]

yeah. if its not getting fixed with those easy things, i am about out of idea unfortunantly. you can send a support ticket in

!support

Armour works on every type of damage or just physical?

[echo gyro]

do the supporter packs go away when 1.0 releases?

[harsh vessel]

How many hours you need to complete every sidequest you need and the main campaign?

[dense iron]

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/planner/7bel0dwq also any gear recommendations before i start farming corruptions?

[karmic pulsar]

Thank you I will check this out.

[chrome fable]

How long is the campaign and is there a benefit to complete it before 1.0 ?

[brave path]

campaign (depending on build) can typically be finished in 5 hours? maybe less if you really speed run it all...theres no extra bonus to finish it before 1.0...but there is a bonus to finish it in general (+1 to all stats)

[chrome fable]

Ah okay cool. I'll just go through it during the first season then. Thanks!

[dense root]

varies greatly from person to person. plenty of people do it in a single digit number of hours while i've seen a small number of people complain about it taking them over 20 hours. for a new player the average is probably somewhere in between. whether or not you complete the campaign now, you will have to make a new character and replay the campaign if you want to participate in the new cycle on february 21

[brave path]

np :)...keep in mind both legacy and cycle will be getting the same mechanic

[acoustic thicket]

Is the necromancer pretty good? I plan on doing a summon build for them

Looking forward to playing on my steam deck

[chrome fable]

So the only difference then is the ladder and the people i can play with?

[analog palm]

Hey I just arrived in Reign of Dragons with my Lich leveling build at lvl 71. I want to respec to an endgame but build it requires the marinas lost soul unique. Should I farm for it now or wait till I get into empowered monoliths?

[acoustic thicket]

[dense root]

focus less on resistances and more on health, critical strike avoidance, and % endurance. it's ok if your resists aren't capped but you'll really feel it if your crit avoid and endurance aren't

[chrome fable]

Ah okay, thanks for the info!

[barren crow]

Are Elemental Bee idols real? What class are they for? Loot filter says Primalist but LETools has them as Mage

[dense root]

all farming is faster in notably empowered so unless you're really struggling i'd wait

[brave path]

pretty much lol

[sour wind]

any reason to go void knight over paladin?

[low dagger]

One's a better support?

[acoustic thicket]

What class is the most forgiving to play?

Like for a solo player

[low dagger]

Paladin is pretty good

[brave path]

i mean depends on what you want as a playstyle

[brave path]

druid/paladin are some of the easier and more user friendly ones...druids can tank soooooo much

[acoustic thicket]

Ohhh paladin sounds awesome, I play one in dnd

Are they more dps or support in last epoch?

[sour wind]

not gonna play support vk or paladin

[native sail]

There's not really support/tank/dps split in LE

[buoyant sinew]

both? they have a lot of support-oriented stuff but it all works on you as well so you can just be selfish

[brave path]

lol i mean they have some support skills that compliment your dps very well (holy aura and sigils)

[acoustic thicket]

Ohhh hell yea

Okay that sounds fun, I’ll try paladin when 1.0 launches

[brave path]

paladin has a consecrate type ability...hammerdin....whirlwind...well last two are sentinel in general...theres also smite-adin etc

[acoustic thicket]

Ooo I want to be a smite happy paladin

[weary tulip]

errrr how can i dual wield on bladedancer?

[acoustic thicket]

[brave path]

it legit depends on what you want...they both have multiple playstyles

[buoyant sinew]

take the base rogue passive that allows it

[brave path]

theres a passive in the rogue tree

[sour wind]

i just dont want to be hardstuck at like 300 corruption

[weary tulip]

ahh i c, thanks

[dusky kite]

The corruption system is getting reworked anyways

[buoyant sinew]

one type of smite paladin is one of my all time favourite builds, and 1.0 is adding a new type that looks really fun too

[prisma geode]

Hey guys, someone else have disconnects? Each 2 or 3 locations im getting disconnect, dont know whats wrong

[brave path]

there are multiple builds that incorporate smite into it...there are a lot of abilities that cast smite when you use them...or have items that will give you a chance to cast smite (so you can like hamemrdin with smites)...there is also just a straight smite build that focuses on getting tons of mana and having your mana drain and you do more dmg with smite based on missing mana

[dusky kite]

We don't really know how large the gap between good and average builds will end up being

[brave path]

again it comes down to the build itself...what do you want to play? both classes have builds that will easily push passed 300c

[grand wren]

Will the way Last Epoch is right now graphics wise and everything else be the same on 1.0 launch or will 1.0 bring a content update with improved graphics, mechanics etc.?

[acoustic thicket]

Eeee I have a lot to explore with paladin then, would y’all recommend I get started now or wait for 1.0 at this point?

[brave path]

1.0 will bring a lot of changes and graphics updates

[buoyant sinew]

depends whether you want to play legacy or cycle

[willow sierra]

will the ulti edition / upgrades ever go on sale?

[deft sentinel]

shattering an item gives shards depending on the tier of the affixes? for example a tier 6 affix on an item will give more than if it was tier 1?

[grand wren]

Ah I see, that's great

[dusky kite]

Doesn't matter either way, you've got 2 days of play before the patch

[buoyant sinew]

you get a random amount up to the tier of the affix

[brave path]

tbh id say start now but im a bit biased...theres no difference between legacy and the cycle besides ladder reset and who you can play with...so im sticking with legacy

[deft sentinel]

alright ty

[buoyant sinew]

if you want to guarantee you get an amount equal to the tier, use removals instead of shattering

[brave path]

doubt it...the game is already 50% off from every other game in the same space

[stiff nimbus]

Am I missing a lot by playing in Offline mode? When I first started the servers seemed kinda laggy, so I started an entire arsenal of characters in offline. Just trying to see if there's a major difference between the 2 modes.

[brave path]

you are missing out on being able to even choose the AH faction, playing with other people, and any MTX

[frank iris]

if I use mad alchemists ladle on a DoT build im trying, does each tick from the DoT have a chance to proc all of these status effects>

[buoyant sinew]

no dots aren't hits

[stiff nimbus]

hmm alright - seems like a lot

[plucky cosmos]

help i just got the game how do i move

[stiff nimbus]

and im guessing there's no way to move your offline characters to online?

[spiral comet]

Is is just me or the homing fireball animation is not smooth like its few fps only lol

[brave path]

also i think you miss out on cycles in general if they put in cycle specific stuff later on

[frank iris]

damn, worth a shot, thanks!

[brave path]

nope

[stiff nimbus]

alright ty

[plucky cosmos]

ii cant move at all

[chrome canopy]

[chrome canopy]

Ah see I thought that was about gear not characters, Thank you very much.

I appreciate the info. One more question. For Primalist Druids. Is there anyway to extend their transmorations ? Like can you gain more mana or rage while transformed to potentially stay transformed indefinitely ?

[dusky kite]

Yes, nearly all transformation builds stay in their form indefinitely. You have a variety of options between passives, skill nodes and uniques

[cursive delta]

Does this skill give ward on general Freeze rate or just the Frost Claw Freeze Rate?

[eternal phoenix]

I'm trying to get to the temporal sanctum dungeon, but i forgot to grab the ruined coast pad. seems like a big issue that i have no idea how to get back there.

[random cedar]

guys i downloaded the game and it runs like 10-15 fps on medium? i have pretty decent laptop, valhalla runs on ultra on stable 60fps

on my PC which is notably worse than my laptop it runs ok

[minor vigil]

Portal in imperial era coast

[eternal phoenix]

found it, ty.

[frank iris]

has anyone messed with the channeled version of wandering spirits on acolyte? why does it sometimes work and sometimes not? im holding right click to channel it but it just stops sometimes, my mana is full due to high regen so in theory it should be infinite which it is sometimes, but other times it doesnt work and just ... stops

anyone else run into this? i kind specced my whole acolyte into this so it will suck if it doesnt work

[coral flax]

so bacislly im a smal cc, so i wanted to ask if people can share some insights or aha moments they had while playing any build or just generaly about the game so i can include it in my new vid
if u want to share any just at me, i'll try to be more specific if needed

[deep vine]

planning my league start, have they mentioned at all if they are aware of / planning to fix the bug on sierpins fracta tree?

[faint cape]

I've heard the chronicle of the damned offhand bugs it out

[toxic echo]

patch notes are the 19th. if its fixed, likely will be there.

[frank iris]

holy crap i just found that in my stash and thats why im specced into it lol wow, ill take it off and try again, thanks!

[snow raven]

Hi Guys, i'm finishing the campaign now, so what i do next??

[dusky kite]

It's the meta build for wandering spirits and it's not bugged. You also don't regen while channeling, are you watching your actual Mana expenditure? Might be late or networking related too

[low dagger]

Check out the monoliths if you haven't already

[vale niche]

Heya, new player here. Is it possible to make a rogue that's purely about attack speed and crit?

[frank iris]

its something with having it bound to right click, moved it to a key and its channeling fine i moved hungering souls to right click and having the same issue, i have to mash right click to keep souls coming out

some reason my right click when held is only registering as one click

[verbal kettle]

How does exp scaling works late game? does it scale only with the level of the map or additional mods influences it?

[rugged quartz]

is the game getting a visual update on 1.0?

[calm rover]

hey, i'm thinking about getting Last Epoch and want to ask how well the game is optimized for pc and if it runs smoothly?

[rugged quartz]

runs fine for me

[dense root]

depends on what you mean by "purely". crit and attack speed are both stats you can build on rogues (and tbh crit is mandatory for every non dot build on any class) but you will have pretty terrible damage if you don't also scale your attacks using flat damage, increased damage, and more multipliers

[calm rover]

what's your pc specs?

[dense root]

le ran fine for me on a computer i built a decade ago

[rugged quartz]

2080 super, ryzen 3700x, 32gb ram, 1440p monitor playing on very high

[dense root]

i upgraded about half a year ago so maybe something has changed since then but i don't think it's hugely resource intensive or anything

[vale niche]

Yeah I figured damage would also need to be added into it to be actually viable. But having a bladedancer that has high attack speed and crit would be pretty fun.

[dense root]

that should be doable then yeah

[calm rover]

okay, so i have an 3060ti, 32gb ram and ryzen 7 5800x3d and ig it could be run well on high?

[rugged quartz]

itll be fine

it's not a very heavy game imo

[dense root]

that pc sounds much more powerful than you probably need yeah

[calm rover]

thanks for answering

[deft sentinel]

dumb question but is there a way to leave a loading screen when it's obviously bugged? Appart from alt f4

[faint cape]

sometimes it lets you bring up the Esc menu - if that doesn't work, then no

[deft sentinel]

oh nice it worked

tyvm

[vale niche]

Also is there like, a way to dodge?

[buoyant sinew]

like a dodge roll or something? no

some skills can fill that function (Shift being the best example probably), otherwise just run

[timber wasp]

Does Frostbite chance with Cold skills work if i use a non-cold skill that has +cold spell damage? Using Mourningfrost boots atm

[buoyant sinew]

no

the skill needs the "cold" tag on it, that's what it's checking

[sleek parrot]

i need HELP
game crash after character screen, i tired every thing on google

[toxic echo]

that sounds like a unity crash. can try resetting the client and PC. can also verify files. outside of that, likely need to contact support...which would put you right about time for 1.0 anyways

!support

[ripe brook]

Need a hand? Just head on down to https://support.lastepoch.com/ for support articles or to reach out to us directly.

[stiff isle]

Is the server down until the 1.0 launch? I tried last night to play for the first time in a while, and couldn't get in. Getting the same thing today. "Our servers are experiencing additional load due to unusual traffic levels."

[sleek parrot]

thanks, reseting PC is hard, and thats 3ed time i verify steam file

[grand wren]

Will your character reset every season (if there even are seasons) like in Diablo 4?

[toxic echo]

server doesnt come down until the 20th. try force closing steam from task manager (its actually helped more than you would think). can also try https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1205212339654234153

[toxic echo]

yes. there will be a current cycle > legacy migration every cycle

[stiff isle]

thanks. Will try closing steam and see if that works.

[grand wren]

oh ripp

how long do cycles last?

[toxic echo]

but here, legacy is getting the same content (at least for a few patches) so you arent missing anything. nothing concrete, but 3-4 months as per normal for this genre

[misty laurel]

At what monster level will I have access to all unique drops?

[toxic echo]

not level, but 200 corruption

[grand wren]

Oh that's good then

[stiff isle]

Didn't help with closing steam. Off to the connection issues I go

[remote mirage]

whats the actual EXP required to go from 99 to 100? the table on the wiki seems to be off by 1 digit

[stiff isle]

..and it turned out to be my antivirus blocking it somehow even though it's not triggering an alert.

[toxic echo]

well...thats a new one

but hey, it works tho

[dusky kite]

we don't know how many people who never bothered to troubleshoot their issues also ran into some form of this though - might have been around all along

[toxic echo]

fair

[pliant moat]

hey folks, super important question

who's ready for 1.0 🥳 🥳 🥳

[proven laurel]

I am, just need to narrow down my starter and roll

[acoustic thicket]

what is the most braindead easiest build for a new player ?

[pliant moat]

whatcha got so far?

[frank iris]

ive found anything with minions to be pretty braindead

[pliant moat]

idk, my beastmaseter is pretty active play

spiritwolf is something else

[pliant moat]

well im not gonna say its braindead easy but multishot marksman is mostly stand in place and kill entire screen

depends what you like playing tbh

[chrome ore]

is anyone else having issues where they are dying with health still seemingly available?

[toxic echo]

its a weird bug that should be fixed on 1.0

[buoyant sinew]

it's purely visual I think?

[chrome ore]

i dont think its lag, but it seems like i still have an actual health pool and heal but die anyway. seems to poison

[toxic echo]

you did die...there is just sometimes where a leech or something comes in at nearly teh same time

so you die but you also heal

[chrome ore]

but im going off pure visual... hope its a bug that gets sorted then'

[toxic echo]

i am like 99% sure someone confirmed it as being fixed back when it popped up

[chrome ore]

cool

[buoyant sinew]

or well maybe visual isn't the right word for it. but it doesn't mean you actually died at non-0 health

[hasty tartan]

Is the Tuesday downtime only for online play?

[buoyant sinew]

you won't be able to log in to play offline either (since offline still requires a login until after the patch is out)

if you log in before the downtime starts you should be able to keep playing through the downtime

[hasty tartan]

Okay, thanks. Guess I play PoE or Minecraft that day.

[chrome ore]

well im saying i am being delared dead by death screen. but red health still visible in the health orb. thats whats throwing me off

[toxic echo]

or just read the patch notes. its going to be a big one. lol

[hasty tartan]

Patch notes are the day before downtime, right?

[frank iris]

19th

[buoyant sinew]

so yes

[carmine mortar]

Where should I go to claim my backer cosmetic rewards?

[pallid ermine]

anyone know what causes the weird faded white smear on stat numbers? i would post a pic but cant, prob cuz i just joined

[buoyant sinew]

it's a common bug, fixed in 1.0

(and no one has image perms atm, they're turend off for the influx of people)

[pallid ermine]

ah, so i just gotta put up with it till then ;-;

[hasty tartan]

What's the likelihood of servers being unplayable day 1? There have been some instances of that with PoE leagues, wonder if I need to prepare for that.

[buoyant sinew]

the whole thing about big live service launches is that no one can answer that with any certainty, not even the devs

[fast hornet]

OK I can't seem to equip cosmetic items. Got a backpiece, click Equip Cosmetics, and nothing happens

[frank iris]

its gaming in 2024, you should ALWAYS expect that

not sure how you would "prepare" so to speak but i would expect server issues day 1

[buoyant sinew]

yeah assume they're going to happen if they would bother you

[fast hornet]

Also can't click plus or minus on minimap; it makes me move instead.

[hasty tartan]

Like be mentally ready to play other games if the servers are crap.

[buoyant sinew]

or play offline

[frank iris]

then be mentally ready

[fast hornet]

I mean, I want to support the game and get the supporter packs but not going to if I can't equip

[hasty tartan]

Alright. Would rather play online day 2-3 than offline.

[sonic chasm]

How are the controls in this game ?
Good/Meh
Example :

1. Interact with mouse wheel
2. "Skip" (dialogue/cutscene) with a bind
   the likes.

[fast hornet]

OK figured out the cosmetics thing. Still, rather annoying.

[sterile widget]

It will also depend which region you are in. AU region was smooth as butter within a few hours of 0.9 launch

[hasty tartan]

I'm in US east

[dusky kite]

Tbh these are all very weird metrics of the quality of any game's control scheme

[sterile widget]

Well, you never know, but yeah, I wouldn't be surprised to see issues at time of launch

[sterile widget]

You can skip through dialogue by clicking. I dont believe Scroll wheel binding is possible.

[sonic chasm]

I don't play D4 because interacting with dialogues doesn't work half of the time and I can't interact automatically at 200APM.
Left click doesn't register if mapped to a skill.
Edit : they might fix the broken "interact" bind by season ~10.

[sonic chasm]

I can't predict which lacking functionalities could make the gameplay tedious. If there aren't 20 items on the ground in end game I might not need the mouse wheel to vacuum them instantly.

[wanton hatch]

level req = area level = ~player level?

i.e. i shouldnt switch to a super strict filter showing only level 60-70 base item types while im level 54 just finishing campaign, right?

[wicked plover]

you will drop items based on area lvl, so if your area lvl isnt 60-70 you wouldnt see any items with that filter

[wanton hatch]

okthx

[summer hollow]

is there gonna be steam achievements at launch?

[wicked plover]

not with 1.0

[frank iris]

maxroll says they will have updated build guides on 2/19, does anyone know if that includes warlock guides or no because its too new?

[summer hollow]

damn, really missing out there 😄

[sterile widget]

If you use your Item filters, you won't need to vacuum lots of items. 🙂

[sterile widget]

Maybe? It depends how much of Warlock is in the patch notes.

[frank iris]

ok makes sense

[kindred wagon]

Will it be possible to change faction from ssf to trade and back?

[wicked plover]

yes

[sterile widget]

You can change from CoF to MG and back but the items you gained using those factions benefits will not be usable on the same character.

(Until you switch back to the faction used to gain them)

[faint cape]

You can't change to SSF, you can only migrate out of SSF. SSF is not a faction, it's a game mode. You can respec between the factions CF and MG though.

(well, SSF is actually 2 game modes)

[deft sentinel]

is there a point in doing the quests in a tier of echo another time? Except perhaps the loot at the end of the 3rd quest?

[wicked plover]

if you are in normal monoliths you need to do the quests to progress further

[deft sentinel]

but doing it again is useless, right?

[wicked plover]

in normal monoliths its better to move on and unlock empowered monos

in empowered you want to repeat the timeline boss for better blessings and boss specific uniques

[thick shuttle]

Hi guys, reading a few build guides and the info I get is a little confusing, so I'll ask:

Do generic "Increased Minion Damage" mods on items increase the damage dealt by Archmage Skeleton Mage Cryomancer spells, or does it have to specifically be "Increased Minion Spell Damage"?

[wicked plover]

general increase counts for everything

if an affix is more specific then usually it means it will have higher values than a generic one

so general minion damage might be max 150 and spell minion maybe 200 and so on

[thick shuttle]

I see, thanks. Why do guides say that the only mods I want are "Increased Minion Spell Damage" then? Just for the higher potential max values?

[wicked plover]

aye

[thick shuttle]

So I can get by with "Increased Minion Damage" while leveling, then target the spell damage as my endgame gear.

Gotcha, thanks so much! This community is much more positive than PoE.

[frosty mango]

Can Legendary be dropped besides crafting with Unique + Exalted?

[wicked plover]

no

there are weavers items though, if you want to count those

[vernal glen]

On Lich (Necromancer) passive skills are chain in the middle and I cant add more points what is that?

[thick shuttle]

Also, any reason why Archmage Skeleton Mages recommend cold over the other damage types (Fire/Necrotic)?

[wicked plover]

you are limited to spend points in a different mastery than your own

[wicked plover]

depends on the build/synergy with other skills

[thick shuttle]

I see, so I can completely respec and go fire. Thanks!

[vernal glen]

I have enough points to go to other table side but for some reason I cant there is that chain with padlock

[thick shuttle]

I just thought cold had some inherent advantage over other types

[wicked plover]

you cant go further than the chain, because you chose a different mastery

[wicked plover]

the cc from freezes aint bad

[vernal glen]

can I change mastery ?

[wicked plover]

thats the only thing you cant change

[deft sentinel]

alright thank you very much

[vernal glen]

understood, but that is stupid idea why not let people change mastery and go with other build

[wicked plover]

choosing mastery is the same as choosing your class at the beginning, you get a warning window that its a permanent choice

getting a second char to the point where you can choose mastery takes 1-2 hours, its not that bad of a commitment

[thick shuttle]

Also, just to confirm, I'm reading the game guide and wiki and didn't see anything but I'd like to ask just in case:

Are there any damage types or status ailments that bypass ward and are able to damage your health directly?

[vernal glen]

I had level 70 so dont want to level up again

[wicked plover]

i think there is one bleed dot or health decay that bypasses ward
no clue what its called

[thick shuttle]

Leveling is fast, I was able to level to 70 in about 25 hours of gameplay.

[wicked plover]

its a ground aoe thing you shouldnt stand in

[thick shuttle]

I see, so that's the reason why Exsanguinous is so desirable for ward lowlife. Gotcha, thanks!

I made the stupid decision of going left on my monoliths to try to target farm Exsanguinous early, now I have to slink to the right side in shame to get my blessings first because the left side is too hard with zero character blessings.

[wicked plover]

yea that happened to me alot as well when i didnt know much about the paths
its kinda more logical to take the lower lvl paths first, eventhough it turns out to be bait

[thick shuttle]

Does Last Epoch have the same PoE mechanic where no matter how hard you buff freeze/cold, you can never freeze bosses?

[wicked plover]

you can freeze bosses
the ingame guide should have the formula, you just need a stupid amount of freeze multiplier

and some enemies are freeze immune

[thick shuttle]

Nah I consciously made the decision to go left because I wanted Exsanguinous badly (because the guide I am following said that it is a core item for my build) and I thought that because I facerolled quest content, "Left side shouldn't be that hard".

Worst mistake of my life.

[wicked plover]

its so much easier to tagret farm in empowered monos
if you can handle it

[thick shuttle]

Defense and resist wise I have enough, but the Cold Cryomancer Solo Archmage deals a piddling amount of damage so it takes forever to clear normal monoliths and fatigue gets to me.

[wicked plover]

its not the best for clearing ^^' gets pretty sick single target dps later though with good gear

[thick shuttle]

Yeah I mean even single target damage for bosses is crap.

I understand that it has potential, but with the gear I currently have, it's frustrating having to spend 12 minutes in a boss room where the boss' health drops only a single pixel per second.

[wicked plover]

are you using the shade thingys on him

[thick shuttle]

Yep, both shades

[low dagger]

How do we gain favour with the Merchant's Guild?

[thick shuttle]

I simply have bad gear, that's the only explanation.

That's why I wanted to farm left side to try to improve things because my crafting luck is trash

[wicked plover]

if you are building for generic minion damage right now maybe specialize some more minion skills until you got good enough gear

[wicked plover]

kill stuff

[low dagger]

That's it?

[buoyant sinew]

Favor can only be earned by slaying enemies and completing quests

[wicked plover]

i think quests during campaign give favour as well? but generally just play the game to earn favour

[buoyant sinew]

that's the quote from https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/trade-item-factions/61722

[wicked plover]

sheeesh quick shot, you got that ready quick 😄

[low dagger]

I was reading through it and didn't find that part. Thanks.

[buoyant sinew]

it's frequently visited enough that I typed "fac" and it came up lol

[lime latch]

Will we be able to create guilds or clans?

[thick shuttle]

I just find it sad that I'm speccing for Archmage Cold Skelly and my main boss clearing skill happens to be Volatile Zombie

[glass iris]

Hi i see alot streamer dont collect gold or anything in the video , does the gold auto go into your bag ?

[buoyant sinew]

not at 1.0. the devs have said they might add them in the future when there's a good reason for them to exist, but don't feel that they have much purpose in the game right now

[wicked plover]

yes, there is an auto pickup range

[lime latch]

Thanks

[glass iris]

? i mean they just zoom through the map

[low dagger]

Zooming is cool! Picking up items is for plebs 😛

[wicked plover]

yea i get that it can be frustrating, you can be flexible with your build, guides arent the holy word, if you want more damage then slap on some more minions

[wicked plover]

pretty much

[hoary finch]

Is there a way to make force move to be my mouse wheel up / down? Right now i could only do one way, not both ways to activate force move. thanks

[low dagger]

But yeah, if I'm showing something on my loot filter, it's for a reason

If they are doing it for a video, they just want to go fast to impress viewers

[glass iris]

so my question is , if you zoom through the map , will u still get the gold ?

[wicked plover]

yes

[low dagger]

You just have to walk over gold to pick it up

[thick shuttle]

True, but my skill specializations are already level 20 and I don't really want to despec and go through leveling them again, only to respec again later when I get the correct items.

Oh well, looks like all I can do now is suck it up and try to complete right side blessings as quickly as possible so that I can get back to the left side.

[buoyant sinew]

if you're leaving gold on the ground behind you that doesn't get picked up, it's gone

I don't know whether that's what you're asking though

[glass iris]

thanks i got it , you still need to pick it up , i think serfax dont get my meaning xD

[glass iris]

i understand u still need to pick it up

[buoyant sinew]

yeah, you just don't need to click on it

[low dagger]

There's no clicking for gold like in D2, which is nice

[glass iris]

but still need to go over

[low dagger]

Over or near

It has a decent range

[wicked plover]

"auto pickup range" 🤷‍♂️

[analog bluff]

If you're farther in a campaign than your friend and you join their campaign to help catch them up does that screw anything up? Or does it like sync to their game where they are at in the story

[low dagger]

Do we know at what point we have to pick factions?

[wicked plover]

act 9

[analog bluff]

looked like at last town from the video

[glass iris]

thx for the answers 🙂

[low dagger]

Oh, not until then. Campaign's almost done then.

[thick shuttle]

Oh by the way, what are the probabilities/chances of items dropping with all 4 mods being at least T6?

[wicked plover]

0,something
its not gonna happen

[low dagger]

And for all of them to be mods you want on that item, the chance is tiny

[buoyant sinew]

as far as I know it's never happened

[wicked plover]

How will quests work in a party?
Events that are not repeatable within the same instance, such as killing a boss, will complete an objective or start a quest for everyone in the instance. Repeatable events, such as walking to a location or talking to an NPC, will only complete an objective or start a quest for the player triggering the event, but other players can trigger it in the same way. Generally if you skip to completing an objective further along a quest line than you were before it will fast forward you to that point, so skipping ahead does not leave you unable to progress.

[buoyant sinew]

certainly I've never seen a 4x exalted or seen anyone mention one anywhere

[analog bluff]

ok thanks

[buoyant sinew]

3x is already so rare most people will never see them

[thick shuttle]

I see. So realistically speaking, the most anyone could hope for would be two T6 mods? Or even that is exceedingly unlikely?

[buoyant sinew]

even 2xT6 that you actually want is very very unlikely

you'll find double T6s occasionally for sure but most of them suck

[wicked plover]

two is relatively common if we are talking about rarity
two usefull ones? ^^ smth else

and thats arguably worse than 1 exalted affix, cause you cant modify it

[buoyant sinew]

though item factions will change this

CoF will be spamming you with exalted items and MG pools the whole player base's items

[thick shuttle]

How do you target farm something then that has like "Increased Minion Damage" and "Increased Minion Spell Damage" both on T6?

[buoyant sinew]

so who knows what the new normal will be

[wicked plover]

you kill alot of stuff and get alot of drops

or trade for that matter ^^

[thick shuttle]

Ah so no way to target farm, it's basically speedrun and pray to Eterra that you get lucky, gotcha.

[wicked plover]

you can target farm items but not stats, that would make it a bit too easy ^^

[wild matrix]

Is there a colorblind mode? Yellow and Purple both look the same as white unless I mouse over it.

Not even colorblind but its indistinguishable

[thick shuttle]

How about items with Experimental mods? Any way to increase drop rates?

Trying to find a replacement for my boots that tele minions with me when I use a traversal skill and a replacement for my belt that spawns volatile zombies when I drink potions.

[wicked plover]

devs are looking into adding these options, it wont be available for 1.0 though

you can change the color of items with your lootfilter to smth that makes it easier for you though, thats a good solution for now, eventhough its not optimal

[wicked plover]

not really, just kill all the mages you can find and pray*

[buoyant sinew]

there is a cheesy way to speed farm mages if you want it

[thick shuttle]

Any way to increase spawn rate of mages?

[glass iris]

will my character get deleted at 1.0 ?

[thick shuttle]

Yes please, these boots and belt are utter crap, dropped at level 45 and I can't replace them because I lose the experimental mods.

[wicked plover]

https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1187326924754788362

[thick shuttle]

IIRC it won't. There's just a new "league/season" and your character can't be in it, if you're willing to play in Standard that should be fine.

[buoyant sinew]

let me find the link

[wild matrix]

Damn, I imported a filter, looks like that would take a bit to do

[wicked plover]

you can use recolor instead of show option, same functionality

[wild matrix]

Wait is this just changing the text colors?

[buoyant sinew]

https://imgur.com/a/OsLJ1qt there you go

[wicked plover]

yea it should

[wild matrix]

Oh, Im refering to the backgrounds

[thick shuttle]

Thanks.

To be honest I purchased LE because my friends advertised it to me as PoE but without the massive time investment requirement.

So far I am loving it, being able to play and feel powerful without having to nolife through the game is excellent for busy people.

[wild matrix]

The text is fine. its just their backgrounds in the inventory

[wicked plover]

oh yea, unfortunately no customization for ui stuff and inventory =/

[wild matrix]

I cant post a pic but I cant see the difference of purple and yellow

[thick shuttle]

How do you leave an echo without completing it?

[buoyant sinew]

portal (press T)

[wild matrix]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/795024204335939644/1208600104722890842/image.png?ex=65e3df8f&is=65d16a8f&hm=5947bf53c5ca70e9c3e5c0f21a2d3e159183f1f8b03f5055760dda3754457b32&

[wicked plover]

only solution for this would be to press alt and show affix tiers on your items

if anything is tier 6 or 7 its an exalted, those are drop only

or limit your lootfilter further

[wild matrix]

Still need Rares atm.

Wont be a big deal later though I guess

[thick shuttle]

Oh, that doesn't cancel the rewards? Good to know, thanks.

[buoyant sinew]

it does not, it resets the echo but it still has its rewards

(and a tip to avoid autopiloting into a reset, if the portal is blue you haven't finished the echo. if it's green you have)

[wicked plover]

at that point it would be bricked anyways no? or alt+f4?

[buoyant sinew]

not sure what you mean sorry

[thick shuttle]

Is it worth picking up items with T5/T6 mods that I like (I.E. Elemental Resistance or Hybrid Health) with 3 other mods that are crap for me, then Shattering them for the shards?

[carmine stag]

At what lvl would the "endgame" start for LE? By this I'm referring to not only in game content but if I were following a build guide, what lvl does it usually transition to and "endgame" build?

[buoyant sinew]

absolutely yes. for high tier rare mods it's also worth using removals instead of shattering to ensure you get all the shards instead of a random amount

[wicked plover]

i mean if the portal would be green then the echo would have been finished anyways, or is there a way to save it

[wicked plover]

~50 on average i would say, depends how long you spend in campaign

[carmine stag]

ok thank you

[thick shuttle]

So, Removal the T6 mod and Shatter for the rest?

[buoyant sinew]

oh I just mean in general (not for the speed strategy), sometimes I kill an objective then press T without thinking, even if it's not actually the last objective, so I check the portal colour before taking the portal

[wicked plover]

oh gotcha ^^

[buoyant sinew]

well removal hits a random mod so removal until you hit the mod you wanted, then shatter the rest if it's still worth it

[thick shuttle]

Ah I see. But this should be for valuable T6 mods like Levels to Skill, yes?

If it's just a generic T6 like Cold Resist, I can just shatter straight away.

[buoyant sinew]

would you ever want to shatter cold resist at all?

cold resist is a very common shard you'll have loads of

only shatter/removal at all for shards you actually need

which is usually hybrid health and class specific stuff

[thick shuttle]

Well, not Cold Resist, but something relatively uncommon and not specifically useful to me, like T6 +Strength. Something I can use on a second character.

[buoyant sinew]

strength isn't uncommon either, I'm confused

[thick shuttle]

Oh okay, so shatter only T6 which is directly useful to me

[wicked plover]

dis is da waey

you can shatter other class stuff as well, but not as generic as strength

if there is still confusion, there is an extra section for class specific affixes at the bottom of your lootfilter when you go on affixes

[buoyant sinew]

my shattering filters are basically
-any hybrid health early on, T5 only later
-any T5 class specific
-any class specific I specifically need for the build I'm playing right now (or next build)

[wicked plover]

do you really limit by tier
i very rarely find t5's
by the time i get t5's naturally i got enough shards through other drops and then just take them out of the filter completely

[hollow sapphire]

i want to play so bad, but i always crash when going to keeper camp, can anyone help with fix

[wicked plover]

https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1205212339654234153

also verify steam files

[buoyant sinew]

I just do T5s to build up a pool of random class specific affixes for any future builds. they're rare but that's fine, I get enough to have for later without spamming my filter

[wicked plover]

fair enough

[lime latch]

How do I compare with both rings I have equipped?

[buoyant sinew]

you can't

just have to screenshot or something 😦

[lime latch]

feelsbadman

[wicked plover]

or look real fast 👀

[lean horizon]

Can someone tell me if I've missed something? Playing first character at at level 49, the difficulty sky rocketed like 10 fold and everything started one tapping all of the sudden.

[buoyant sinew]

did you just hit chapter 9?

[lean horizon]

I dont know how to see chapters ngl

[wicked plover]

dont be scared to craft on your gear
every open affix slot is less power on your char
also upgrade tiers

[lean horizon]

MSQ is Isle of Storms

[buoyant sinew]

okay so end of chapter 8

[wicked plover]

did you get tapped by lagoon ^^

[buoyant sinew]

if you're not at lagon yet, how are your resists?

[lean horizon]

Everything is nearly one tapping

31 14 0 75 8 8 36

28% on armor

[wicked plover]

do you want general advice or fix your character advice

[lean horizon]

lmao

[buoyant sinew]

well instantly you have low cold and lightning in a zone where everything is doing cold and lightning

so that's pretty bad news and should be easy to fix

[wicked plover]

is the 75 phys?

[buoyant sinew]

yes

[wicked plover]

aight, thats gonna help as well for boss

[buoyant sinew]

usual easy way is to just smash some resistance shards into random gear you're wearing

[wicked plover]

if you want more detailed help you can slap your char into this and send us the link
https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/
otherwise what spark said

[lean horizon]

Is there a way to raise level on unique items at all

[buoyant sinew]

no, the way you make unique items better for higher level characters is through the legendary system

but that's more of an endgame thing

[low dagger]

I'm unclear about echos. When do you get the special reward for completing it?

[buoyant sinew]

when you portal out, the chest in the middle of the room you land in is the special reward

[low dagger]

Got it. Thanks

[lean horizon]

working on this, gonna take a min

[upbeat mason]

hey guys im running a bleed hammer build and im wondering what would be the reason to have more than 100% chance to bleed?

[wicked plover]

100% = 1 stack, 130% = 1 stack and 30 % chance for 2 stacks, and so on

[sharp current]

More chance, more stacks of bleed per hit. You really ramp up DoTs that way.

[upbeat mason]

intresting. okay what would be an end game % to shoot for then? 150-200%?

[buoyant sinew]

usually more like 400-600% for most ailment builds, I've never played bleed hammers though

[wicked plover]

i dont know why but never got around to try dot builds

[upbeat mason]

oh wow okay thanks guys ❤️

[buoyant sinew]

if they fix the channel tap bug, bleed shield rush pally would be my personal rec. favourite build of all time

but probably a dozen crazy warlock things you can do instead

[wicked plover]

sounds fancy, i kinda hate that you cant steer with shield rush though

[buoyant sinew]

on that build you are tapping and releasing shield rush using the teleport back to start node

[wicked plover]

thats probably gonna be my entry into dots ^^

[buoyant sinew]

not using it for movement at all, can use lunge for that

which is why the channel tap bug kinda ruins it at the moment, you have to voluntarily halve your damage

[wicked plover]

once, it removes all fp

[tall thorn]

is there some guides for new players? like how game systems works? i mean crafting, monolith...etc

[buoyant sinew]

the in-game guide is pretty good, opens if you press G

[wicked plover]

ziz video is pretty good i guess?

[low dagger]

yeah, there are lots of good ones. zizaran's is good

[tall thorn]

will check out, thanks

[final onyx]

where do peeps usually farm end game gear? monolith or dungeons?

[wicked plover]

mono i would say, you got better rarity scaling there
eventhouzgh dungeon exalt farm is a thing? never tried it

[half fractal]

https://imgur.com/a/1jCiFZd this 70% spell damage is for all spells or just flame rush

[final onyx]

ah aighty, cheers man!

[carmine mortar]

Can I use a character I made in online mode into offline or are characters made for offline mode essentialy ssf?

[wicked plover]

i dont see any 70% spell dmg on that item

[wicked plover]

offline is strictly seperate from online

[half fractal]

oh my bad wrong link

[wicked plover]

yea thats global spell dmg

[half fractal]

nice

ty bro

[leaden tundra]

what does this mean? "Used as base item"

[wicked plover]

in what context

[leaden tundra]

i am looking at broadsword

on the db

[buoyant sinew]

on LETools? that's the unique items that use broadsword as their base item

[leaden tundra]

does that mean it can only turn into that unique item?

[buoyant sinew]

so it determines the implicit mods and usually level requirement

with a rune of ascendance you mean? no, a rune of ascendance doesn't care about that. it just cares about the item type

so it could make any unique 2h sword

[leaden tundra]

oh

i see tyty

[latent wadi]

Can rune of ascendance create "any" unique from the item type or is there restrictions ?

[buoyant sinew]

it can only make random drops

[latent wadi]

That was my assumption, thanks

[buoyant sinew]

https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/uniquesim is a good resource for seeing what you can get and the simulated odds

oh sorry wrong one, https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/ascsim

[leaden ice]

On skills, does this means only the flat part? Added Damage Effectiveness: 125%

Or calculate total damage (flat + multi + crit) and then multiply?

[latent wadi]

Ohhhh, nice thanks !

I was about to ask a question about the damage effectiveness aswell ahah

[buoyant sinew]

only flat but those two calculations give the same result so it doesn't really matter

yay commutative property

where it does matter is for base damage, since added damage effectiveness doesn't apply to that

[latent wadi]

Not sure I understand this last part, I'm gonna look up the damage calculation formula, might understand with it

[buoyant sinew]

so your skill has some amount of base flat damage that the skill itself grants

then you have your added damage from everywhere else

you multiply the added damage (but not the base damage) by the damage effectiveness, then add that to the unmodified base damage

then that's the value you apply increases, mores, crit multi and so on to

[latent wadi]

Oh ye cause its literally "added damage effectiveness"
Thanks

[buoyant sinew]

mm

[latent wadi]

Well, wouldnt make much sense to apply a base multiplier to base damage anyway, now that I think of it

[leaden tundra]

that website is amaizng

is there a damage calculator ? to see all the different "buckets"

[latent wadi]

You mean to calculate your theorical dps ?

[buoyant sinew]

nah it's all spreadsheets around here still

but buckets aren't a great way to think of it because there are usually so many more modifiers to your damage (which are all multiplicative with each other)

and there isn't the arbitrary split of additive vs multiplicative that Diablo has

if you've played PoE, damage calculation in LE is basically identical

(the main difference is there's no such thing as a local stat)

[latent wadi]

I cant post a screenshot but am I reading it right that Experimental affix added by Glyph of Insight and its tier are 100% deterministic ?

And also you cant get a t5 experimental this way ?

[low dagger]

I'm doing Fall of the Outcasts for the first time. Do I get the final quest thing once I've filled the timeline bar?

[leaden tundra]

never played poe

[latent wadi]

You have 3 "marks" on the timeline bar, every mark you passed allows you to start one of the three "quest" in the chain to get the boss

Basically you can farm your 300 stability (Or is it 350 ? Cant remember exactly) and then do the two "quest echos" and then the last encounter of the zone

[leaden tundra]

do you have any resources @buoyant sinew

[latent wadi]

I wish I was you, so much to discover

Maxroll page is pretty easy to understand regarding damage calculation

Let me check a map, cant remember the zones name

[leaden tundra]

lolol ik the feeling

but poe too complicated for me to try it

[jade helm]

I just keep dying over and over at level 60 in level 58 mono's
What am I doing wrong

[leaden tundra]

whats ur resis, max hp, edurance?

[latent wadi]

Check if you have a waypoint unlocked in The Ruined Coast in Ruined era ? South west of the world map

[karmic ice]

I do not lol

[jade helm]

731 hp 20% endurance 567 armor

[latent wadi]

What chapter are you in the campaign ?

[jade helm]

can I post an image? of my stats?

[latent wadi]

Image posting has been disabled

[jade helm]

oof

[latent wadi]

Are all your resistances above 30 40 at least ?

[karmic ice]

Finished it, currently doing empowered mono lol

[jade helm]

nowhere near that
I cant seem to get decent gear

[leaden tundra]

20% endurance is low imo

do u have any defensive spells/ buff + whats ur armor

[jade helm]

567

im a bladedancer btw

[latent wadi]

Oh, then teleport to Oracle's Abode in Imperial Era, talk to the Maiden something (right side of the entrance in the "city"), get her quest

Then teleport to The Shining Cove in imperial era (west of Oracle's) and in there you should find a time rift taking you to The ruined Coast, go through the zone, temporal sanctum is at the end of it

[leaden tundra]

are you also crafting taht helps a lot in getting the stats you want instead of trying to get drops. since u are dying a lot try scraficing some dmg to get more defenese

[latent wadi]

It is kinda impossible that you cant get at least semi-decent resistances at lvl 50, you might want to look into Forging gear

[leaden tundra]

HP/Endurance/Resists/Critstrike avoidance

[jade helm]

im still running a level 5 helm cause I cant find anything bette

[karmic ice]

Worked ty!! 😄

[leaden tundra]

like you havnt dropped something better in terms of implicits or affixes?

[latent wadi]

The level of the item doesnt matter really, only the stats on it
(even tho its unlilely nothing better dropped in 45 lvls)

[leaden tundra]

crafting is core part of gearing in this game

so look for helmets with higher implicits and craft better affixes into it

[jade helm]

higher whatnow?

[leaden tundra]

implicits are the stats that arnt prefixes or suffixes

each item has set implicits so no matter what it always drops with those stats

[latent wadi]

gl explaining items without voice / stream / links / pictures :D

[leaden tundra]

LOL

[jade helm]

im running a bandit helm

cause it has the best armor I can find'

[latent wadi]

Are you using some kind of guide / associated loot filter ?

[jade helm]

not really

was told you can just wing it

[leaden tundra]

you def can

but u def need some arpg knowledge

[latent wadi]

You can, I was just asking to understand your knowledge / situation, not saying you should do differently

[leaden tundra]

check dms norlanth

[latent wadi]

I let you deal with that Bloom if you take it to dms to avoid spamming here just for duplicates :D

yea i dont have a heart.... thatd be perfect though ... ez cleanse from tree or a sealed affxi

and my crit blows rn just got to monos in 3rd

[misty cape]

Hey guys, help me understand please, when you proc meteors from Harbinger of Stars, should it provide you ward if you have x% Mana Spent gained as Ward, like Julra's Stardial for example?

or in that case it counts as mana drained? The belt description says that mana is consumed, which is not clear

really hope that it's bugged, cause was hoping to abuse that stat for ward gen

[wicked plover]

have you tried it out?

[misty cape]

yea it doesn't work which is why i am sad

but i don't see why it shouldn't work so either it's a bug or intended

[wicked plover]

do you have chance to gain ward or is it guaranteed

[misty cape]

it is guaranteed

literally julra's stardial has that affix

[wicked plover]

maybe a question for https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/414298693257265155

[misty cape]

and i do gain ward when i cast meteor directly

ye will try ty!

[craggy hawk]

the fastest level for 70-100 is just monoliths?

[wicked plover]

ye

[bleak coral]

what's the highest tier of affix an idol can have? are they just exclusively tier 1 or do they work the same as other gear?

[wicked plover]

only t1

[near path]

all affixes on idols have a single tier

[mild axle]

lol just got bleeding heart drop

[leaden tundra]

correct me if i am wrong but this https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/dodge calculator tells you ur chance to dodged based on your rating and mob lvl? not ur actual dodge chance in stat window?

[pseudo sky]

Any twitch extensions for builds and whatnot?

[wicked plover]

not currently, they would like to have it though at some point

[latent wadi]

yes, it uses the dodge chance rating from the character sheet to let you know your actual dodge chance (%) against an enemy from a zone of a specific level

[wicked plover]

i think its gonna stay acc name
havent heard anything different or this topic come up much

if its a thing for you maybe try https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1123698164503949392

[latent wadi]

You can disable the name on your head if you want in the options

Sure, was just suggesting in case it was an option you'd prefer, follow your heart :)

[eternal bronze]

i was told to come here to ask how to use the couch bot in livestream shoutout channel

[wicked plover]

as soon as you leave the area it resets

[earnest arch]

Where can i get a good lich loot filter?

[low dagger]

The Lich King!

[static ferry]

sorry, new player here.. if i need to find a "reach of the grave" wand for my minion build. it says to farm the "the stolen lance". so do i just keep getting enough stability to run the 3 quests until i find it

[wicked plover]

you will have greater chances for targeted unique farming in empowered monoliths

[static ferry]

so i would empower the stolen lance? sorry not sure how to do that. just got here

[wicked plover]

empowered monoliths are the stronger versions of normal monos
they are lvl 100 and start at corruption 100
you unlock them by clearing all 3 lvl 90 monos

in the empowered versions you have higher chance to get specific unique reward nodes

[static ferry]

ahh okay yeah im not there yet im only lvl 70 i think and been running these 62/66 monoliths

ok tomorrow ill watch a video on corruption and stuff

[wicked plover]

if your character can handle it i would suggest you move on to the next ones to start clearing your way
empowered monos will give you ALOT more loot and better rolls on blessings

[static ferry]

ok i will try to figure that out

thx

[minor vigil]

What is the bugged lich build? What skill does it use?

[supple linden]

Has there been any word about multiplayer updates, like shared corruption gain or having everyone be able to pop a dungeon key so they can interact with the dungeon reward?

[sterile widget]

Nope
Patch notes on 19th though

[low dagger]

Good thing the game will be offline for 24 hours. It will take that long to get through the patch notes.

[supple linden]

Here is hoping, would love to also see some solution on corruption with alts too. Feels bad to kit out an alt and have to grind out why too easy levels of before getting to a challenging corruption for your character. Would be cool if they had a consumable that drops that lets you go through a corruption placement for alts. Lol for sure.

[craggy hawk]

when u reach empowered

what can you get? better loots only?

[supple linden]

New loot pool at a corruption threshold and better drop rates and challenge.

Off reddit "Rare Items with Tier 7 mods only drop in Level 90+ zones (so last 3 monos, and all of Empowered). This applies to Dungeon levels + rewards as well.

Omnis Amulet drops above 200 corruption from Shade Of Orobyss boss.

Higher Corruption gives Increased Rarity, faster boss rushing, and higher chance of special nodes ("Set/Unique Helmet", "Set/Unique Gloves", etc)

250 Corruption is a nice sweet spot for farming Gold, in terms of diminishing returns.

If your build isn't comfy at 200-300 corruption, there's probably some weak point to it.

When you see people farming 1000 corruption, it's because they're bored and waiting for MP, not because it's particularly rewarding." @craggy hawk

[iron knoll]

Hey all! Sorry I've tried to search for it but... should I wait to start playing the game before launch this week?

[turbid rock]

Hi all, cannot wait for 21st. What class is great to play now if I want to wait to play the acolyte due to the Warlock locked?

Also KS got any special stuff other then the game? Do I get the golden flying thing?

[iron knoll]

Can I still play the character after launch this week? ie: not like a season in other arpgs

[supple linden]

If you don't plan on doing the cycle then there is no reason to wait. There will be no difference between the cycle and eternal realm this season too so it's up to you.

[iron knoll]

Okay I am going to look this up a little more! Thank you both!

[rugged quartz]

trying to enter Temporal Sanctum and it says it requires a key? how do i get a key? lol

[nimble apex]

if I take pyromancer on the skelly mage tree (which says 'all poison chance gained from this tree is converted to ignite chance for pyromancers'), does that mean any extra minion poison chance I get is not converted?

[wicked plover]

you can drop keys anywhere, timeline bosses always drop one i believe

[wicked plover]

sure sounds like it, otherwise it would say global chance

[nimble apex]

booo, that's unfortunate

[mental patrol]

how important is region in last epoch?

[ebon beacon]

Will we be able to play offline at wednesday maintenance time?

[mental patrol]

I've played lost ark previously, and chose US West, and regretted it until I quit playing, so i'm curious what role this plays in lask epoch.

[wicked plover]

you can stay logged in when maintenance starts, but it will throw you out first chance ^^

[wicked plover]

you dont create your characters on servers, so it doesnt matter, just a ping/connection thing

[mental patrol]

can you trade between regions?

[wicked plover]

yes

its not like mmos where you chose a server to play on
we all play together ^^ only difference is where you connect from

[mental patrol]

awesome

i didn't realize how much weight choosing a region/server had in an MMO at the time...

[wicked plover]

i think everyone had the same experience at one point ^^

[mental patrol]

yea, Lost Ark didn't allow any kind of transfer though, so i was stuck too (hence the worry when choosing)

[sharp current]

You mean where it tells you you can't go below a certain threshold?

[broken reef]

does anyone know if there will be a way to view someones character(build/items/etc) by right clicking them or something in 1.0?

[near path]

It's been suggested a few times I believe but haven't heard it's coming in 1.0 so probably it isn't?

[broken reef]

understood, thank you!

[supple linden]

You can pretty much get back to 20 at high levels by running a exp tomb echo, respecing and then picking up the reward exp tombs. If that's what you are asking.

[sharp current]

Oh, I see what he was asking. Must be bed time.

[sterile widget]

If i recall, that is not currently possible.

Might be updated for 1.0 - patch notes on 19th

[barren crow]

Are Elemental Bee idols real and what class are they for? Loot filter says Primalist but LETools has them as Mage. Still looking for one

[ember inlet]

Quick question, not really regarding how to play, just a general question for people who have played through the game. What act did you feel the first spike in difficulty? ||For me, struggling in act 7 due to my lack of fire resistance, wondering if others faced the same problem.||

[barren crow]

I think most people wake up when the squid face looks at them funny

[dense remnant]

ruins/docks in the void stuff near the start, that fire area, and the cave a bit futher ahead, lagon boss fight, then not having posion res for the last chapter.

it generally all translates to res's though

[ember inlet]

yeah, makes sense, not going to prep for something if you don't think it'll just one shot you (it will)

Main reason for asking was actually because I got one shot by the holy ring (something like that) that does fire, 550 hp with 30% resistance gone in an instant

[kind spruce]

Hello! Question about hydrahedron. There is no dps in its dps window. How do u understand- what gear is better without numbers? I mean, for example, u have 2 staffs. Quite similiar. But one has more fire and second more spell. How without numbers in dps window understand- what is better?

[little junco]

For cycles in general, the only reason to play them is for racing/economy refresh right? When new cycle content comes out, it will be on legacy at the same time?

[barren crow]

if youre using a skill tagged fire and spell then just use the higher number

[wicked plover]

for next few cycles yes, at some point in the future they will convert to cycle exclusive content

[little junco]

Thanks

Do I need to remove a blessing in order to roll it again?
