[sly schooner]

I mean I don't want to modify anything just sharing an offline save, is that also prohibited?

[buoyant sinew]

it's not prohibited, nor is actual modding. They just don't want people talking about it here

[dense remnant]

afaik you can share save files with someone for offline

ive never actually tried it, but its locally stored so

[buoyant sinew]

Their stance seems to be "we can't stop you but we'd rather you didn't"

[dense remnant]

shrug no reason it wouldnt work

should just be equivalent to backing up from steam cloud save if you went to a new pc

[sly schooner]

That's kinda different from what I'm reading here, do you have any source? https://www.reddit.com/r/LastEpoch/comments/1buhhdd/comment/kxuqlq2/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

[dense remnant]

the reason for not wanting discussion here on it, is theres uh, some overlap

or at least was

but offline is offline, its all local stuff, they cant really have an issue with it

part of the appeal of having a fully offline mode, is that

[sly schooner]

My intention is just to play something for the 24h of the patch which also feels like too large for me (new player) are they planning on alliviating this wait somehow?

[dense remnant]

im not sure what you're asking

[buoyant sinew]

I'm just going off some things Ave has said, I may be misinterpreting. e.g. #💬┃general message #💬┃general message

[sly schooner]

if they plan to reduce downtimes between patches

[dense remnant]

could ask in the ask teh devs channel

[sly schooner]

thanks 🙂

[dense remnant]

but for this patch? no

[bleak sapphire]

I'd rather have 24 hours downtime for cycle patches then what we had for 1.0

game was almost unplayable for 4-5 days at least

[candid elm]

Not sure what you're asking. When you make a new character in any game mode, there's some things from the campaign you want to do at some point - the passive unlocks and idol unlocks. Having previously completed the campaign in that game mode doesn't help new characters in that same game mode. Outside of you being able to share items in that same game mode stash and being able to share faction progress in that same game mode. Edit: and the new Blessing stash

If you have characters currently in offline game mode, they'll still be there and you can still play them.

[dense remnant]

also to put some clarity on it- campaign completion doesnt unlock anything

campaign is a vehicle for passive and idol slots, and getting to faction choice, with a +1 to each attribute for killing majasa

[sly schooner]

No, my painpoint is that I want to play and need to wait until tomorrow, ideally I would be able to play with my endgame char that is online, just looking for other solutions

[candid elm]

Yeah there's just some stuff you can share, the item stash, new blessing stash, and the faction progress

[dense remnant]

but you can do stuff to circumvent the campaign, and you get choices on where to get those idols and passive

wait?

its probably annoying to get blindsided by it, but its 1 day so the new cycle can go smoothly as possible tommorow

[candid elm]

There's not currently a way to take online characters offline

https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1230532158578364476

[elfin cove]

you can chose to play legacy instead of cycle. if you start an offline cycle character now, it will be legacy offline tomorrow, and you can still play it. however you will not have access to online features, and will not be able to chose MG

[sly schooner]

I don't see how this can help me lol

[elfin cove]

it doesn't help. i'm just telling you the current options. wait for 1.1 launch like the rest of us 🙂

[sly schooner]

Maybe I did not state my problem correctly or I will just look somewhere else until tomorrow

[bleak sapphire]

go play another game until tomorrow

[dense remnant]

There is nothing anyone in this discord can do or say in the discord, to help you with your problem

other than to just wait until tommorow

mainly becuase discussion of that stuff isnt allowed :p

if you use a bit of common sense, and a common website, you'll find an answer to your problem

[sharp anchor]

can i play my own build or it will be difficult to play later like it is in pou

[bleak sapphire]

https://tenor.com/view/car-gif-4384336

[dense remnant]

super easy to respec, and the divide between builds is much less severe than in poe

[sly schooner]

I mean I wanted to see if there is any "legal" solution, I was no longer talking about mods

seems like there is just not

[dense remnant]

no one will arrest you 👍

[sharp anchor]

thanks for the the info, i will try my own

[dense remnant]

enjoy! exploring stuff by youself is the best way to enjoy le

[sharp anchor]

https://tenor.com/view/goodjob-thumbsup-nice-excellent-naruto-gif-7248440

[elfin cove]

the only thing that cannot be respeced is your mastery class (like POE ascdencies). everything else can be resped' easily.

[candid elm]

You can easily change everything except your initial class and chosen mastery. I did my own build when I first started and was able to get into the end game with it.

If you want to try a different mastery or different class, you'll need to make a new character

[sharp anchor]

okay i played 1.0 with markshman and i want to play 1.1 with paladin so it doesnt matter that i cant change it later

thanks yall for help

gl on the new season

[candid elm]

Have fun with it

[silver rover]

you cannot play an online character offline they are separate

[errant steeple]

i made character yestarday but in offline mode i cant acces him?

[silver rover]

yes they are separate

[errant steeple]

but when server will be online offline char stay offline? no acces to online option?

[chilly swallow]

ooh but i see my 1 character both in online and offline

[toxic echo]

Offline stays offline. They. Are. Seperate

[fiery plinth]

If you're reasonably efficient, how long does it take to get all the campaign unlocks on a fresh character? Just like, ballpark?

[errant steeple]

hmmm crap then, i just started game yestarday and today cant play:D

[tender rapids]

should i be doing every single quest and chapter?

[silver rover]

90 minutes to get to act 5 town, go monolith until youre high enough level to do temporal sanctum, skip to act 9 spend 30 minutes doing 4 side quests and you're done

[toxic echo]

5 hrs or so fresh

[fiery plinth]

Jesus. I don't think I've done it in less than 30. 😅

[tender rapids]

could anyone answer me pls? tyy

[fiery plinth]

Are there good guides on like, how to run the campaign quickly? I always follow build guides but they don't usually have that level of detail.

[dusky kite]

just don't kill mobs

run past them where you can

that's it

the trick to speedrunning campaign

[fiery plinth]

Huh.

[white roost]

Love it in games when the winning move is not to play

[fiery plinth]

And that doesn't leave you super under leveled and underheated or anything?

[silver rover]

you are under leveled and undergeared but it doesnt matter because the campaign is easy is the idea

[fiery plinth]

Hmm. I'll give that a shot when the servers are back, thanks!

[silver rover]

you can walk into the first monolith at level 30

[bleak sapphire]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gxi5Km09zPo&t=107s

[dusky kite]

yes but you can largely do monos at around level 20-25 on your first character (without major alt gear)

it's really not an issue

just kill some sh it every once in a while and you'll be catching up in higher level zones

[silver rover]

20 might be a stretch just get to act 5 town for the passive point and then go monos

then skip to act 9 with temporal sanctum key at like lvl 60

finish up idols and passive points and ur done

[fiery plinth]

Jeez, the game I've been playing and the game y'all are describing are wildly different, lol. My experience going into monos at like 40-45 has been rough going, interested to see how it works at 25.

[dusky kite]

might as well just speedrun everything till the spear linearly and finish your passive and idol unlocks then, run some monos, then use your first sanctum key to get to ch9 for the faction

[tender rapids]

@silver rover u are so cute

[dusky kite]

interested to see how it works at 25.
A lot of pain and kiting basically

[fiery plinth]

Ah.

[fiery plinth]

Thanks for this, I'll give it a look!

[daring aurora]

if i give Forge Strike penetration with this node, does that apply to the summoned Forged Weapons as well?

[storm wren]

lol the funny thing is I don't finish last video yet and
Dr3adful post the other new video...

Explored a new build for warlock the whole night

[dusky kite]

I saw it, it's a pretty good format to recap the builds you tried in the previous season

almost nobody else does that

[storm wren]

Indeed and it trigger my interest for how long they take Dr3adful to experience, I mean all of them reach to...Let's in average, lv.85 per character.

He must play this game 1500h at least I guess

I just know few of them and most of them I don't try yet so I just can leave a impression

[fluid trail]

when does server go up?

[silver rover]

6pm CEST 12 EST 9 PST

[fluid trail]

so in ~8 hours?

[silver rover]

20 hours

[fluid trail]

oh

damn ok

[silver rover]

big downtime for the new season and 1.1 patch

[fluid trail]

can i play offline in the meantime?

[silver rover]

yes but your offline characters aren't the same as your online they aren't synced

so its mostly just good for like leveling practice 🤷‍♂️

[fluid trail]

okay

[quiet berry]

Cannot create an account right now?

just bought the game

[chilly swallow]

patching till tomorrow

[quiet berry]

how P2W is the game?

[buoyant sinew]

not at all, you cannot pay for advantage or convenience

[silver rover]

it's only P2W if you play merchants guild and violate TOS by buying gold

[buoyant sinew]

once you've bought the game itself the only real money purchases are cosmetic, and it sounds like they are very keen to keep it that way

[silver rover]

but if thats a concern you can play circle of fortune and there's SSF which has separate ladders

[compact nimbus]

Will we be able to predown load patch?

[buoyant sinew]

no, offline mode's existence makes that impossible

[compact nimbus]

TY

[warm rampart]

Hey guys flame wraiths deal spell Dmg right ? So with that wand they should leech life right? So am I right to believe that they will live longer since they’re healing themselves ?

[native sail]

Yes on all fronts.

Thank you very much mate 🤗

[willow arrow]

I couldn't play offline a few minutes ago 🤷

[buoyant sinew]

you can play offline but you have to swap a launch option.

[hollow mortar]

noob question (send me to a video / guide if it exists!) - what does skipping the campaign look like on a first play through of a cycle?

is that even possible? I saw someone mention it

[buoyant sinew]

once you reach end of time you can just walk into monoliths, nothing is stopping you

[dense remnant]

play until x point in the campaign, go start monoliths, use temporal sanctum key to skip to last act of campaign to get faction unlocked

[silver rover]

the "skip" is completing temporal sanctum which spits you out at act 9

[hollow mortar]

temporal sanctum key is a drop from monos I'd assume

I havent really gotten to endgame since like 2017 or w/e lol

[dense remnant]

kinda, it can drop at any point after the part of campaign that it would spit you out from, or in monos

[hollow mortar]

so I'd imagine this is the "meta strat"

iirc end of time is around level 53-55

[willow arrow]

Thanks!

[silver rover]

end of time is like level 20

but the "meta strat" is usually progress to act 5 town, talk to the snake for passive point, do primeval dragon side quest, risen lake side quest, old tome side quest, storeroom side quest, then go monoliths until you get a sanctum key

[dense remnant]

first mono is lvl 58

[hollow mortar]

I meant player level - wait you can do a 58 mono at level 20? 😮

[buoyant sinew]

yes

[dense remnant]

oh, i have no idea what level you are if you finish campaign

[hollow mortar]

theres scaling like that? I remember trying that and getting spanked

[dense remnant]

i usueally start around lvl 32

[buoyant sinew]

and it's actually doable because level scaling in this game is quite flat

[hollow mortar]

oh dope okay

[azure siren]

what's the strongest starter build right now?

[buoyant sinew]

but you'll need a very strong build to do it on your first character of the cycle

[hollow mortar]

only reason I'm asking is because I'm planning to start hc

[dense remnant]

not the same as in a day

[buoyant sinew]

it's risky if you're in HC

[hollow mortar]

yeah

[dense remnant]

if you're starting hardcore dont do mono start from oracles abode

finish in the snowy/wengari part

then go monos

[hollow mortar]

ight dope

[tender rapids]

so we end chapter 5, do some idol passive points side quests and go to monolith at lvl30? or am i wrongf?

[dense remnant]

if you want to speedrun yes

but its very much a speedrun strat

if you need to ask, the answer is basically 'no, go further'

its very easy to lose time doing it that early

[north bloom]

Google is useless. When does season 1 start?

[silver rover]

cycle 2 starts 6 pm CEST, 12pm EST, 9am PST tomorrow

[buoyant sinew]

#news message has it in your timezone

[north bloom]

Thank you!

[quiet berry]

thats cool, thank you. I took the version with skins already

[wind onyx]

What'll happen to offline mode in the next 21-ish hours?

Will it still be 1.0.8.5?

[buoyant sinew]

if you don't update it, yes

but it gets the content update same as online so you'd have to specifically choose to not update or down-patch

[quiet berry]

wha

[azure siren]

Any speculations?

[dense remnant]

not really, theres a few things that'll be strong, not sure what will appear broken

[quiet berry]

so there will be build changes?: i was searching this: Shadow Daggers Bladedancer

[toxic echo]

Mage looks good. Falconer and warlock are still fine, just less absurd. BM and FG changes are interesting

[buoyant sinew]

there are many balance changes in the update that's about to launch. I don't remember there being many that would apply to that build though

[silver rover]

bladedancer sd plays the same as before you just use exploding umbral now and have to cast sync umbral -> shift for burst instead of sync shift

and needs a little more mana support

and we use concentration now instead of perfection

[wind onyx]

They said that they won't roll out something in the offline mode for the 1st week... What part is it?

[silver rover]

the pinnacle boss wont be available to cycle/offline until either 1 week passes OR the day after someone on cycle kills it

[wind onyx]

Ah, that's fine then

The new faction progress will be possible atleast?

Or will the faction itself be disabled?

[silver rover]

yep new faction is just progressed when u kill harbingers

you can still do that and get eyes and do nemesis encounters

just cant use the eyes to fight the boss until its unlocked by cycle killing it

[white carbon]

Is there any playable "turret build"(like dh in diablo) for coming cycle?

[buoyant sinew]

Hydrahedron Runemaster

it's magic not bows if that's ok

[silver rover]

ballista falconer is pretty close too

[buoyant sinew]

are non-exploding ballistas actually good now? I'm not very familiar but I remember them sucking pre-1.0

[silver rover]

not sure I only play bladedancer I'm just aware of it from being in rogue chat

[white carbon]

sounds good, i gonna search some info of this 2 builds

[wind onyx]

There's the thorn totem druid too

And then there's the runebolt runemaster as well

It's a little too active though, not automatic

[wind onyx]

Excited for the new lethal mirage weapon?

[silver rover]

nah im holding back hope until i see if it actually works or not

depending on how fast you get the cooldown reset it might feel really clunky

[wind onyx]

Btw, has anyone ever been able to make "xithara's conundrum" work?

Like, the physical damage while at full health thing

Cuz it changes 100% potion hp to ward, but removes health leech and regen

[buoyant sinew]

it's sometimes used on ward builds that want to prevent their life from accidentally recovering

Exsanguinous and such

[wind onyx]

Hmm, but you end up absolutely wasting the item affixes... Cuz there's a belt that does the potion conversion too

[mental oar]

how long is a reasonably fast 1-100 in 1.0?

12 hours? 24? 48? longer?

[hasty tartan]

How did you get to true offline again

And do your offline characters you started when the servers were up carry to that

Ah I found the offline option

[untold inlet]

Any predictions what is gonna be meta for new cycle?

[obtuse cypress]

Do any of u know if you can unlock faction at the first town u encounter or later?

[native sail]

First character of the cycle unlocks it in chapter 9, all further characters that cycle unlock them in the first town

[silver rover]

id say 35-40 hours is likely to be reasonably fast now after the tome changes and the level 98-100 increases

probably like 24-30 for world first if they weren't trying to rush pinnacle boss

[hollow mural]

Is the dungeon to slam legendary potential items still in the game?

Please tell me they removed it

[obtuse cypress]

Ok thanks alot i just kinda wondered

[native sail]

It's a core endgame progression feature that took a lot of dev time, it's not getting removed lmao

[hollow mural]

Unfortunately its the most boring dungeon in gaming history

Next cycle iguess

Ty for the answer

[honest birch]

Offline can never get online

[wind onyx]

Also, in regards to shapeshifting druid, when will they give an exception to using a town portal for counting towards rage decay?

(referring to when rage decay is halted when no abilities are cast for 4 seconds)

[hasty tartan]

Yeah, just wanted to test the feel of a skill before patch hits

[clever geyser]

Does COF and merchant toons have different arena leader boards?

[native sail]

Nope. They should IMO, but they don't.

[wind onyx]

Would merchant guild ever have any use for offline mode?

[honest birch]

No

[wind onyx]

That kinda feels sad

[honest birch]

How could it

Can't trade with anyone

[bleak sapphire]

It would work for solo but it wouldn't work in party, Mike talked about it a bit yesterday in the ask the dev channel

[wind onyx]

CoF is a feature to the character in line with the world of last epoch

MG is also a feature to the character in line with the world of last epoch

However, only MG breaks the "fourth wall"

Why?

[forest crypt]

I haven't played in a few months. Around 1.0 launch the servers had some trouble. Safe to assume the online servers are much more stable now? Earlier I just ended up playing offline instead

[toxic echo]

idk how you expect other players to put things up for sale in offline mode. at some point you have to realize its a game, and can only do game things

[wind onyx]

I think we're talking about different things

[bleak sapphire]

add ai and bots that automatically put up gear on random rotation like a normal vendor shop

[wind onyx]

My point is, both the merchant guild and circle of fortune factions simply make sense in the plot of the traveller of Last Epoch.

However, somehow the mode we launch the game in affects whether one of them can be "made use of"?

[toxic echo]

yes. cuz you chose to play offline. idk how you expect player made items to populate in when you choose to not interact with them by playing online

[wind onyx]

I mean, they already have vendor logic, they might as well make it so that MG progress is based on crafting to complete NPC requests which grant reputation

[wind onyx]

Again, are you reading what my point is... I'm not talking about online or offline mode. I'm talking about "immersion".

[silver rover]

"at some point you have to realize its a game, and can only do game things"

sums it up fine

[toxic echo]

yeah

if you want a true merchant guild, go to the local flea market

if you want this one, play online

[wind onyx]

It just feels weird that there's parts of the game that simply don't function. I get the multiplayer not functioning when offline, Last Epoch is technically a solo RPG with optional multiplayer.

[toxic echo]

cuz you are playing an online game offline. expecting everything to work isnt realistic at all

[wind onyx]

Are you deliberately avoiding to converse on the basis of LE's world-building or do you consider all of it just waste work?

[toxic echo]

i have responded to every one of your messages. idk how thats avoiding to converse. lol

game is made to be played online, as all arpgs are

you chose to not do that

some options (as with ALL games) are not available offline

this isnt a hard jump.

[wind onyx]

Nevermind... I think I'm talking to some bot.

[native sail]

[toxic echo]

better than talking to a wall

oh, wait, i mean, 100101100

[honest birch]

[chilly swallow]

Is offline mode going with the currend patch or not??

[native sail]

1.1 will be available in offline. The pinnacle boss will not be available until the business day after someone beats it in cycle OR until a week passes, whichever comes first.

[chilly swallow]

oke thx so your not stuck on 1 patch in offline mode

[toxic echo]

nope, it gets the same updates live does, at the same time

[chilly swallow]

Thats great thx

What's the easiest, safest, yet high damage build as starter?? Necro minion?

thats incredibly up to peoples opinion. necro minion is a fine starter tho

When making a loot filter, if you specify some affixes on a unique and unique as the property, and set it for recolor, will it flag that specific unique with that color?

like this I mean

[native sail]

You can't specify the affixes on the unique cuz they're "unique affixes" not actually affixes in the filter iirc

[toxic echo]

yeah

[terse roost]

Did you try checking YouTube?

[quick crown]

i might have missed it, and if so please direct me to the post about it, but what happens to cycle stash pages when they are moved to non-cycle? do they become permanent remove only? do they only last until the next cycle ends?

[bleak sapphire]

this is just like the people asking why the server is down. people are blind

also by this time most of the content creators are sleeping because they will be doing 24+ hour streams when the game comes up

[rugged epoch]

At which level am I able to pick a mastery?

[bleak sapphire]

around 15-17, its when you get to the end of time

[rugged epoch]

I have no idea what that means, the old guy just got kidnapped by the bird man

I'll just keep moving forward until the game lets me. didn't know if it was story or level locked.

[native sail]

You're a bit away.

Story locked

[silver rover]

But you can't put points into it until you have 20 in your main class

[rugged epoch]

Gotcha

[jagged nimbus]

Why am I not dying?

[silver rover]

its a bug in offline

just become immortal instead of dying sometimes 🤷‍♀️

[jagged nimbus]

Dying is overrated

[steep void]

13 hours to go 😄 Stoked

[crystal tusk]

Is there no online play at the moment?

[brittle glen]

Id assume no as most arpgs take there online servers down to push the new season at somepoint and since the new season is in 12.33 ish hours online shouldnt be available till then id assume

[icy drift]

Nope, 24 hour downtime before new cycle

[arctic kraken]

Pen is addative and doesn't have any ceiling/diminishng returns right? So say i have 75% pen on weapon, and 4 other sources of 25% pen each i'm sitting at 175% pen without any waste?

[icy drift]

Correct

[river whale]

anyone have a link to the MG loot filter discord? i dont remember leaving but can't find it on my list

[icy drift]

This one? #💽┃server-share message

[river whale]

yes i think this is it. tyvm didn't know it was being shared on the official discord

secondly did LE ever add a lootfilter toggle? IE: im using 1 filter and press a key to show another filter. i know they have disable filter but that's pretty useless

[icy drift]

There's no hotkey but you can just press shift+f and switch filters with two clicks

[river whale]

2 clicks every screen is a lot. not really a viable option. click economy is kind of important.

ty for the answer though. they did not. gotcha

[icy drift]

Yup that's fair, how come you want to switch between two filters? Not enough rules?

[river whale]

it was a suggestion i wrote back in 1.0 where i was using a merchant's guild loot filter to make money and there weren't enough rules to include the items i personally wanted to filter as well so it felt like i was sacrificing with either one i used. perhaps with the new filter improvements i can do both. 😄

i mostly only swapped when doing lightless arbor loot explosions cause it got too tedious during monos

[icy drift]

Gotcha

[arctic kraken]

anyone have a strong 1.1 focused filter to show only items of market worth by chance? Just decided to play again after a break across most of 1.0 so behind the 8 ball. Spent 6 hrs theory crafting some fun new builds but realized just now i don't have a filter made for once i hit farm status

need to raise money for my 2nd character, i will make Smelter's Wrath build great again so help me god (well great for the 1st time...) but need alot of $$$ to make it rain.

[tender condor]

we wont know what will the economy be in 1.1 yet so its all on paper as of now

[river whale]

https://arreatsummit.gg/last-epoch/loot-filters

these guys follow the market and keep it up to date and take suggestions on their discord in a community attempt to create a good economy

it worked wonders in 1.0 for me

[arctic kraken]

Pretty sure its easy enough to make some general predications my friend especially when a fair portion of stat combo's, idol combo's etc are going to keep their value/demand regardless of FOTM.

Thanks twinkle

[grand harbor]

hi so if i have melee lightning damage and an ability scales off melee damage, but is not lightning, will that ability also have that added flat melee lightning damage, and will that added damage scale from the lightning damage modifiers

[main vortex]

Does someone live in the time zone were the studio is want to have it confirmed,checked my timezone its about 11 hours left before the update drops is that correct?

[polar holly]

yes

[surreal verge]

Yes

[crystal maple]

for getting the specialized xp for a skill, do i have to kill with that skill? or i can use something else and ill get xp anyways

[surreal verge]

As long as the skill is specialized and your earn xp

[crystal maple]

ah kk, thanks

[desert tree]

Yes and yes

[bitter shard]

Does healing effectiveness affect health Regen or leech?

[vale thistle]

Was Synthesis of Light on Healing Hands ever fixed? I remember it giving 1 ward per 100% healing effectiveness instead of the 1 per 10% in the description. It's not mentioned anywhere in the 1.1 patch notes either.

[surreal verge]

No

[dire scaffold]

Is there a released loot pool reward(s) for the pinnacle boss

[surreal verge]

Well, if you checked LEtools there's a single new unique that still doesn't have a drop source...

[sullen crag]

quick question, what's the best way to level up alts

not very satisfy with my current mastery, want to start an alt

but feels extremely slow just to replay the whole campaign again

[desert tree]

Have gear ready for them, skip campaign through dongeon, and complete act 9 to get the idols and passives

[sullen crag]

I see, thx

[arctic kraken]

They did an awesome job with this patch on alot of levels but the one big miss for me w/ regards to QOL alts is some mechanism to provide max passive points/idols w/o doing chunks of campaign. Or are you saying if you just clear act 9 you get everything now?

[sullen crag]

nah, I am still very new to the game

just got my first lich character to 26ish?

just didn't like the playstyle as much

so, want to start an alt and see how it goes

it's just the campaign is kinda boring, so trying to find a way to speed it up

[surreal verge]

Getting good at LE is a way (You can clear it and hit monoliths/basic endgame in 3-4 hours)

[sullen crag]

I see, thx, will definitely look into that

btw, what is LE?

[dire scaffold]

with the new mana regen while channeling if a skill cost 10 mana per sec and i have 10 mana regen per sec would it just cancel out in theory?

[surreal verge]

Yes

[copper fog]

Hi, havent played in a while.

Hows the general power level of each class at the moment? I last played necro minions and am trying to chose what i start tommorow

Or rather what are the top 5 classes at the moment when you get to end game?

Im thinking some sort of warlock or necro to start since you need nothing and seem to scale really well with items

I want a character that has a good early experience, that i can farm corruption on that upgrades well with items

With the option to eventually switch to something else good when i get bored

Any sugestions for this cycle start?

At the m9ment im thinking torment warlock to start

Or wraith necro

[late flax]

wraith got nerfed quite a bit ngl

i think only +3 damage per minion sacrificed?

but now theres no limit to how many minions it can take in each time

[copper fog]

I take it most minions got affected by the nerf?

[late flax]

naw jus wraithlord

[copper fog]

Kk

[late flax]

i think necro minions got health buffs

[copper fog]

Any other recomandations? Specific guide or general

Foreguard and paladin seem to be on the weaker side for example

[late flax]

ehh but still fun man

u looking to get to extremely high corruption or smth?

[copper fog]

Na

[late flax]

oh i would suggest a disintegrate build then

it got super buffed

[copper fog]

Feels good starter that can be pushed if i like it or swapped to another strong build if i dont

[late flax]

then def necro is still the way to go

though it fell off for me at like 100~ corruption cos i played the character anyhow

[copper fog]

Any guides u recomand? 1- 3

[late flax]

gimme a sec

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pei9eMc1DmE

i found this guide on lastepochtools

i loved using golems so i would recommend

[copper fog]

Kk

Im aiming for 300 corruption

[mild sierra]

Going to ask again about it from earlier; are the wolves that Heorot summons in his monolith fight supposed to be something you have to dodge while fighting or are you supposed to kill them and I just suck at it? (I'm level 82-ish and doing the marksman multishot build if that helps with anything here)

[wicked plover]

You just kill the adds when they spawn

[mild sierra]

OK then, I apparently must suck at things somewhere because it takes a few seconds of shooting to really kill them

Even with the Multishot piercing thing, enough of them build up that I can't pierce through all of them

[wicked plover]

They are more tanky than normally in that fight so it's natural for them to take a few hits

[hollow frost]

okay okay question here

we have a group of friends starting the new cycle.

me and the wife are going merchants guild. will they need to be merchant guild for me to trade the items i drop? i know purchases are watermarked but can i trade them dropped items? with the orbs of trade stuff ofc?

[surreal verge]

Items that drop in the same party do not need MG to be 'shared'

[hollow frost]

cheers bae

[wicked plover]

They can't wear items tagged by a different faction, you can still trade those though

[hollow frost]

even if they drop while they offline and i have an orb ?

[wicked plover]

Yes that works

[hollow frost]

not all items are watermarked i think only purchased items are watermarked?

[wicked plover]

Correct

But it goes the same way for them, their drops will be mostly tagged by cof and they won't be of any use for you, just a heads up

[hollow frost]

yeah thats fine.

im usually the one who goes hard anyway.

[mild sierra]

I don't think it's normal for there to be a giant group of them building up even with so much continuous fire though

Even with the difficulty in mind

[wicked plover]

if you'd like someone to look over your gear/build you can share it here
maybe its an easily fixable issue

[viral heart]

How does this work with avalanche?
The skill only mentions large & small boulders

[mild sierra]

I'm not in the mood to boot it up just to see what I have but I'm basically following this build here (at least up to 82 in passives); for gear I have an Arrowguard quiver, a yellow Longbow, then various yellow pieces of armor and jewelry that are at least trying to be close to what's suggested in the guide for advanced gear:
https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/marksman-leveling-guide

[wicked plover]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/
click import on the left and type in your acc and cgar name, then you can share it

I'm just aiming for the full monolith for right now and Heorot is the only one left

[mild sierra]

For what it's worth I have been aiming for that one Compass Bow at some point

[wicked plover]

first thing i would do is switch out all uniques for rares with useful stats

[frigid tapir]

How rare is legendary potential and is a boss drop always guaranteed to have lp? (New player)

[wicked plover]

depends on the unique and no

[frigid tapir]

For example the unique drops from shade of orobyss

[surreal verge]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/endgame/monolith/shade-of-orobyss/boss-items

[wicked plover]

which one

[frigid tapir]

The axe

[wicked plover]

1 lp is easy to get, 2 lp is rare, 3 lp is very rare ^^

[frigid tapir]

Are there known percentages for these words?^^ like common 50% etc?

[wicked plover]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/items/UAzAcEYHYE4g

[surreal verge]

Hover over them.

[wicked plover]

every unique has legendary potential level, the higher that is, the harder it is to get lp on them

you can see it in the database at the bottom

[frigid tapir]

Thanks. Sorry I’m on mobile

Thanks guys

Oh wow 3 or 4 lp is like really unlikely to drop…

[wicked plover]

if you are playing cof realisticly plan with 1 lp, longterm 2lp

[frigid tapir]

Got it

[sinful moss]

Hello everyone! I've played a little bit of LE before 1.0 and levelled up a character up to lvl 98 in 1.0. Both times I played Devouring Orb Void Knight and I really really like the chill playstyle only requiring 1-2 buttons. I was wondering are there any other similar builds in the style of "auto-bomber" which I can start with on 1.1? I'm not looking for some giga high-end corruption pushing but maybe something which can reliably take me to like 300 Corruption. Thanks in advance!

[wicked plover]

any warpath build would be very chill to play, just hold down 1 button ^^

[bronze garnet]

Rogue Blade dancer is chill too imo. Or Minion Builds. But specifically auto-bomber, I don't recall something that comes near to void knight

[dawn veldt]

are the servers still down?

[desert tree]

It hasn't been 24h

[surreal verge]

It would be 24 hours in 9 more hours.

[prime patio]

Not that I am counting or anything but there are 8 more hours until new cycle 😄

[desert tree]

[sudden belfry]

do we have any info on how big of a download there will be? and if we can start it before cycle starts?

[wicked plover]

should be under 10gig ^^ and no pre-load

[vale thistle]

probably a few gigabytes, and there's no preloading the patch

both questions have been asked a few times in #👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs IIRC

[sharp anchor]

is circle of fortune bettr than merchants guild?

[dusky kite]

no

the opposite, in fact. Mg is extreme ezmode

[sharp anchor]

last time i played on offline because of bad start so i decided to go circle of fortune

[sharp anchor]

okay

i will try

[storm wren]

Why crit strike multiplayer is better than crit strike chance?

[thick echo]

offline or online which one is better

[dusky kite]

is it? The value of different stats depends on your build and their current amounts

[hearty juniper]

server off?

[storm wren]

I'm cooking torment warlock build

[latent pond]

I'm thinking of running a zoomancer for this cycle, would it be cumbersome if i want to play with a group?

[obtuse cypress]

how come i see people on twitch playing LE now?

[storm blaze]

They're playing true offline mode

[spare vigil]

I couldn’t find a lot of information, but does anyone here know, was group play made more difficult w 1.1?

[obtuse cypress]

ohh

is that a exclusive streamer mode,havnt heard that before

ohh nvm

[surreal verge]

No

[obtuse cypress]

found out how to play

[spare vigil]

During higher end game content though, will a 3 man party prove some what more difficult ? First time playing LE would be this cycle

[surreal verge]

The usual health scaling is unchanged, so as long as one of you aren't slacking...

[fast forge]

Is a crit effectively more damage or increased?

[storm blaze]

yes

You always want more crit dmg & crit% on builds that aren't dmg over time

[novel sundial]

I can join the new cycle then i start new champion on offline now?

[storm blaze]

No.

[fast forge]

No i meant from a calculation point of view. Does it come multiplicative or additive?

[long lichen]

It depends. You can read it up here

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/resources/damage-explained#critical-strikes-header

[wide igloo]

can anyone help with what is meant by uncapped here? 300 % frost and 1200 % time rot chance?

[marble folio]

Hey guys,
does anyone know if it is worth to play a support build in a two man party?

[fast forge]

Thanks

[dusky kite]

group play is way easier than solo cause only the mobs' health scales, and even that, insufficiently

also you'll be swimming in loot cause you will be able to trade drops to each other

[languid rivet]

What time does new season launch today

Hi guys im new here, can anyone tell me why i cannot even play offine? Le-52 cant connect to the server ? whats going on ??

There's a difference between offline and true offline.

Anyone know if these Lua errors on the Last Epoch fandom wiki have been around for a long time or if something has broken now?

[buoyant sinew]

that wiki is basically abandoned, there were definitely things obviously broken last time I went there but I don't remember whether it was that

you should not use that wiki though

lastepochtools.com isn't exactly the same thing but it's the go-to resource

[wind onyx]

How does the gaze of orobyss mechanic work again? (Pre-1.1/cycle 2)

[severe valve]

How does static orb consume all the mana and deal more damage per mana?

[mystic temple]

Anyone else can't play offline even if the servers are down?

[surreal verge]

https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1259910320558702726

[surreal verge]

It just eats all your mana on cast. Or you mean "How did the cost get so high?"

[severe valve]

does it do that by default?

[surreal verge]

No.

[mystic temple]

Cheers!

[severe valve]

yes how do i increase its mana cost?

[surreal verge]

As an in skill example:

[stable cairn]

for the new shield bash + dual shield tech, is Forge Guard better?

[severe valve]

thanks !

[desert tree]

Probably because you will be able to stack a lot more Str and Block Effect than other mastery

[simple oxide]

Guests also gain Gaze of Orobyss when they are offered a Blessing in an Empowered Timeline, if they have an equivalent Empowered run in the same Timeline. What does that mean?

So in party everyone gets gaze of orobyss but will they be consumed when party kills shade or what?

[last brook]

Your friends would need to be on the same mono. For example if your party is doing empowered 100c reign of dragons. Your party members must also have reign of dragons unlocked at 100c in their own time line or they won't get the orbyss

[simple oxide]

Okay that sounds fail

But Thanks for clarifying

So by playing group you still don't progress your solo character sadge

Or wait, if you play support in party you also upgrade your own corruption because your same as them always so then you can get catch up corruption on your solo

Then it would be nice

[sage raptor]

just curious with the new cycle starting any builds you guys would recommend trying out idm classes too much usually like builds that can just speedfarm super quick

[simple oxide]

I heard mana stacker sorc will be good

[velvet prairie]

guys do u think that this build is good for new cycle ? https://www.lastepochtools.com/build-guides/shadow-cascade-bladedancer

[tacit pulsar]

is the patch 1.1 already downloadable so in 4h we can instant start or comes the patch only there?

[surreal verge]

Only when the patch drops.

[mystic temple]

prolly the warlock those dots and minions make it fun without button mashing

or necro

actually do we have to create new chars for a new cycle or can we just continue where we are?

[frigid wraith]

how does xp work in duos?

like if we both enter a mono together, and i afk at the front and the duo clears stuff do i get xp? Or each only gets xp for what they kill?

[toxic echo]

you need to see the kill happen to get the xp

[frigid wraith]

okay cool

[patent bane]

New chars. The idea of a cycle is that it's a clean slate for people to try new builds and compete in the leader leaderboards without benefits like already existing characters or am already collected set of endgame gear, which would obviously bias any fair competition.

[mystic temple]

helll yeah can't wait

[patent bane]

Legacy lets you continue with your old characters and access all your gear including from previous cycles, so if there's a build you weren't done with or you have the perfect gear for such-and-such but didn't have time to try it before and doubt you can find all that gear again, Legacy is the place to make use of that.

[obtuse umbra]

12pm is go time?

[dusky kite]

every time you ask it's delayed by an hour

[gritty dew]

xD

[sage raptor]

so you mean its never going to be up i see

[timber temple]

im planing of possibly playing a glacer sorc as a endgame build, the build im looking at requires Prismatic Gaze, and Twisted Heart of Uhkeiros how difficalt should these be to farm for in monoliths if im going COF

[toxic echo]

neither is super hard to farm itself. getting lp and such might be a chore

[dusky kite]

not too difficult especially with the +150% unique boss drops rate

But if you want heart at more than 2 LP, you might want to forget about it swap to MG

prismatic gaze is easier as you can fish for it with prophecies, still quite unlikely to find a high LP one

[sage raptor]

returning to the game for this season any builds you guys would recommend looking into mainly just like to speedfarm as fast as possible

[dusky kite]

sd bd or something, they nerfed high corruption so speed farming lower corr is the play now

[timber temple]

ok yah im not too woried about getting high levels of LP

[acoustic crag]

hello there, who played trade last time? how was it compared to ssf?

[astral hazel]

I'm a little new
Is this patch gonna be applied to the legacy server Aswell? I have a char level 40 on legacy

[dusky kite]

yes

[storm wren]

Pretty sorry to hear too less people live in offline mode...Most of people just wait the reopen or just start to play offline

[analog isle]

shattering nova gives 40% more damage per node point if enemy has all ailments? chill, freeze, shock, ignite?

or is it like 10% more on the previous 10% more for every ailment?

[gaunt igloo]

hey quick question mana efficiency reduce the cooldown of said skill? or is that now how mana efficiency works?

[clever anvil]

Why is it always my fault 🫠

[surreal verge]

Mana efficiency lowers the mana cost of a skill.

[gaunt igloo]

THANK YOU SO MUCH im so hype right now

Does every different source of more damage calculates multiplicatively with each other? ie:
1 00 str = 100 more damage (one bucket)
skill has +40% more damage
100*40 = 4000?

Should have just went with the game guide, come onnnnn, can't believe you forgot.

[untold inlet]

Is Maxroll tier list of builds is good?

[dense root]

i know i'm out of practice

[candid elm]

They note for their lists

Builds are ordered within each Tier by their Mastery. It does not reflect a build's power relative to others within the same Tier.
And they have multiple lists for different game activities

[dusky kite]

what do you think needs to be fixed about it in particular?

[crude mango]

For ascended monoliths, does beating the boss automatically upgrade corruption level or can you fight the boss but choose to stay at current corruption?

[surreal verge]

Beating the shade increases your corruption.

[crude mango]

Thanks

[wanton charm]

Who's hyped about this update fellas?

[west hamlet]

do they allow mastery changing now?

[surreal verge]

No

[cerulean zenith]

Guys, sorry if this is in the wrong chat but is offline mode down too?

[surreal verge]

https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1259910320558702726

[cerulean zenith]

Oh

I see

Thank you

[broken minnow]

quick question, is the game going to be patched earlier than the timer, or is it going to be like last time and steam updates at the same time as the timer hits 0?

[surreal verge]

The latter.

[broken minnow]

okay, so the same as release?

guess we need to get lucky to get into the queue early 🙂

[clever anvil]

all primalist masteries are ''allegedly'' least played

and i donu someone told me they are bad

[daring trout]

are there any tricks/speedrun strats for 1st campaign run? I saw something about doing the ice deer one then going into monos until you get a key to skip lagon?

[surreal verge]

They're smoking something, Druid's been in top meta for a while.
Though 1.0 basically didn't touch them so not much people played them.

[atomic robin]

Lightning bear or lightning swarmblade ?

[coarse tide]

Hello, are there any changes for the wraithlord helm and the squirrel helm in 1.1? 🙂 ty

[surreal verge]

https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/last-epoch-harbingers-of-ruin-patch-notes/71790/11

[candid elm]

That's what I like to do, personally. I play the campaign until I have all the passive and idol unlocks. Which you'll get in Act 7, it's a little bit past the "ice deer" after you've gotten the lance. That usually puts me around character level 40-something and then I go into monoliths. The first one is area level 58. The key you want is to Temporal Sanctum and the dungeon exit puts you into Act 9 so you can get your item faction.

But you can do it however you want. You can go into Monoliths as soon as you hit end of time, 20-ish.

[dusky kite]

that is literally meaningless when all sent masteries, warlock, falconer, and rm had builds that were 10-100 times more powerful than intended. Talking about "balance" in 1.0 is like dressing up for the clown show meme

primalist was the only class that wasn't significantly busted

[daring trout]

do we still have to go back to kill lagon? i think it gave +1 all attributes or was it something else?

[surreal verge]

You'll need to hit act 9 for item factions.

[candid elm]

No that's Majasa at the end of Act 9.

[dusky kite]

1 to each attribute for killing majasa

pretty much nobody bothers with that

[candid elm]

And you can definitely skip that

[daring trout]

oh

hmm.

should i go MG this time instead of CoF? CoF was fun but i ended up hoarding 20 tabs of garbage which i found annoying. But i do like finding my own gear over trading.

[dusky kite]

20 tabs of garbage? do you even COF bro

[daring trout]

is that too low 💀

[toxic echo]

that 20 bags of garbage might roll something nice with nemesis eggs

[candid elm]

That's really up to you. If you don't enjoy the bazaar/trading, then play CoF. They did two factions so you can play how you want

[daring trout]

does MG economy get bad if i swap to it mid league?

there was that 2k corruption gold inflation that happened on release wasn't there?

[daring dragon]

what are the builds shaping up to be the strongest in 1.1? looking for a build to play and i really just want something powerful. tired of playing bad builds lol

[daring trout]

i heard maxroll got to test 1.1 and all the guides there are made for 1.1 content. not sure how true that is

[candid elm]

You can change item factions, but you won't be able to use the items that required rank in your old faction. So you'd need to sort out your gear before you switched. It makes your unequip the faction items before you can switch

[dusky kite]

it was dwarfed by the gold inflation caused by rampant botting and duping

[daring dragon]

damn thats pretty sick if its true, but doesnt tell me which builds are strong. I played a maxroll build in 1.0 and it certainly wasnt meta defining lol

[daring trout]

maybe i'll go CoF again then. LE does do ssf very well imo

[daring trout]

they have a few tier lists. idk what content creators are trustworthy in LE and it seems like a lot of the trustworthy ones are on maxroll.

[daring dragon]

yeah its hard to tell in aprgs who is baiting and who knows what they are talking about until you learn a lot about the game 😭 thank you i'll take a look

[potent raft]

Any help, idk what build to play on release :<

[flat yoke]

What's the difference between offline vs online characters for the cycle? I get that no trading and no multi-player but will ALL of the new content be available?

[storm blaze]

Offline gets the pinnacle boss one business day after it's been beaten in online cycle

[lament nest]

A similar question, can I play the new content with a legacy character?

[flat yoke]

is that a one time thing? why is it a day behind?

[storm blaze]

you can

[daring trout]

i think there's a boss race so they don't want ppl practicing on old characters

[storm blaze]

Because there was a poll and majority of players wanted it
and EHG also don't want people to just use legacy gear to go whack it instantly

[flat yoke]

understandable

good to know, gonna play offline

[daring dragon]

checked out maxroll and i think im going with bleed falconer, thanks for help

[daring trout]

👍

[night willow]

@cedar locust

even in offline mode, after changing the startup option in steam

[hidden trellis]

You're still in the online mode

[surreal verge]

You're not in offline mode...

[night willow]

i changed it in steam, and even restarted steam

[cedar locust]

Your login screen should look like this

[quick crown]

anyone else notice that the point bonus on Sorcerer passive called "Arcane Insight" doesnt seem to work in the planner on LastEpochTools? it says it should grant 5 ward threshold per int but i dont see it changing in the status screen

[night willow]

would me getting the game ytd and creating my acc ytd affect this?

[whole radish]

Guys, in order to progress the new bosses we will need to join the new faction, correct?

[candid elm]

The person who made and runs the LE Tools website, named Dammit, has a Discord and there's a bug report section there. Discord invite links are not allowed in this channel, but on the LE Tools website there's a link to the Dammit's Tools Discord in the upper right corner

[toxic echo]

yes

[surreal verge]

The new faction is not exclusive to item factions, you'll join it as soon as you meet the requirements.

[whole radish]

Oh thanks god. So i can still play one of both initial faction PLUS the new one?

[surreal verge]

Yes

[toxic echo]

we have an entire #💽┃server-share channel for discord links. lol.

[candid elm]

https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1255195100003176509

Yes.

[candid elm]

Ok not allowed in this channel

It auto deletes your message if you post here

[icy drift]

Yup

[candid elm]

I've edited my previous post to say "in this channel"

[steady tide]

trade circle or self found for this season?

[candid elm]

However you want to play : )

[dusky kite]

you need to first kill all the regular new bosses, then you unlock the faction, then you can challenge the pinnacle boss

[steady tide]

if only i could decide 🙂 last season i had characters on both. they have benefits and drawbacks

[sturdy maple]

Guys, quick question, is true offline mode still w/out cosmetics?

[candid elm]

Yeah I appreciate they gave us the option

[candid elm]

Yes, I haven't seen an update about that being changed

[sturdy maple]

thanks!

[quick crown]

does the "Reduced mana cost for spell skills" on wands affect the mana cost on channeled skills?

or only manual cast?

[toxic echo]

just the initial cast

[quick crown]

😦

[surreal verge]

Worked for some channeling costs.

[cedar locust]

What happens if you set your launch options to 'Ask when starting game' and then choose 'Full Offline' on this pop-up?

[surreal verge]

So unless they changed it, it does.

[quick crown]

i hope it does

would mean i dont have to have so many T6 mana regen rolls to handle the mana cost

[glossy pawn]

Anyone know which comes first, mana cost reduction or mana efficiency when calculating how much a spell costs to cast? for example, Tornado costs 25 mana and can get a 60% mana efficiency. If I have a scepter with t7 "reduce mana cost by 5", would I subtract the 5 first then account for efficiency or vice versa?

[surreal verge]

Mana cost cuts (Or additions), then efficiency.

[quick crown]

its not a direct confirmation, but it works in the planner so hopefully it works ingame too

[marsh moss]

Is the only way of leveling going through the campaign slog on 1st character still?

[toxic echo]

pretty much for 1st toons

[icy drift]

You could technically go to monos at level 16 or so but it's not really recommended and is usually slower

[night willow]

i dont even get the option to choose

[night willow]

yknow what, i think that the game is just launching it in online mode for me no matter what launch option i choose

[hidden trellis]

can you not select "ask when starting game" as an option?

[night willow]

i can, but i dont get a pop up when i start the game

[icy drift]

Huh

[night willow]

so i think the game is just perma launching in online mode

the "--offline " command fixed this

thanks all

could you add this to the instructions, to help others

[whole radish]

"Added additional stats for each category" do we have info about what stats they added?

[icy drift]

There's quite a lot

[cedar locust]

Will add that to our FAQ, thank you for figuring that out!

Would you mind submitting a bug report to Steam for this?

[random furnace]

Guys, what are the fastest builds ?

Cus im looking for a starter build and i want soemthing really really fast

[toxic echo]

anything rogue tbh

[night willow]

sorry man, gonna play the game till i go to bed now haha

[flint hazel]

Noobs like me, where will you go to choose a build?

[white roost]

Maxroll all the way

[toxic echo]

maxroll/letools/ #🎥┃video-shoutout

[white roost]

Just look for those tagged "patch 1.1"

[cedar locust]

All good! Enjoy!

[hushed skiff]

For the twitch event it says to make sure we are properly linked. Does if mean link steam account or last epoch?

[icy drift]

Le and steam accounts are pretty much one and the same now, but if there's an option to do both I'd do that just in case

[toxic echo]

@cedar locust do you still have the link for linking this stuff handy or in FAQ? i couldnt find it

[cedar locust]

Let me get a new one up!

[urban lion]

Hey peeps, is there a written/bullet-pointed quick guide on the fastest campaign walkthrough? All i can find are videos.

[cedar locust]

This is where you should see your connections, and you need both Steam and your Last Epoch accounts connected!

@toxic echo ^^

[toxic echo]

honestly the 🐐

[timid hemlock]

Yo boys. Really struggling between starting Shatter Strike and Forge Guard. Anyone play both and can give some info on them?

[cobalt raft]

is there going to be another patch or can i wait with game loaded to hit play online button at 11?

[toxic echo]

patch drops in just over an hr

[cobalt raft]

thanks

[craggy hawk]

will 1.1 patch be active on the legacy characters?

[toxic echo]

everything except the tiemgated pinnacle boss

[craggy hawk]

oki i can test if wraithlord still doable

[cobalt raft]

i think the pinnacle bosses have to be beaten on cycle 1st?

[toxic echo]

that or 7 days. w/e comes first

[flint hazel]

what is a paladin build with focus on single target?

[toxic echo]

likely long ebfore the weekend

[bleak sapphire]

most likely will be killed within 48 hours

[quick crown]

does this mean that the Harbingers are also on legacy? and its just that nothing happens when you have defeated the 10 harbingers until someone on cycle defeats it first?

[toxic echo]

yep

[hasty scaffold]

smite hammerthrow. the clear and single target seemed to be improved dramatically.

[orchid stump]

Difficulties deciding between shaman avalanche and mana stacking sorcerer, anyone want to make the decision for me?

[wide bloom]

are equipment skill based cooldowns able to be brought down with cooldown reduction stats in general?

[hasty scaffold]

nope

[drifting bane]

I have the same problem...

[obsidian zealot]

@drifting bane you take shaman, @orchid stump you take mana stack sorcerer.

[junior garden]

I Wonder what build would use this

[toxic echo]

erasing strike, forge strike, judgement, earthquake. anything big aoe with a cooldown. big bonks

[hasty scaffold]

voidstrike

[junior garden]

and target farming is now better

with CoS

maybe the update isnt DOA

[hasty scaffold]

yea, target farming for those new weapons is probably much easier than buying them in mg

[modern perch]

is there a specific dance i should do when creating a character to please the rng drops gods to drop me a fire starter torch early?

[hasty scaffold]

be a streamer

[rough shuttle]

Mate of mine looking for a fun build to play but is struggling to pick for 1.1 Any recommendations for a "Tanky" "Aoe" build?

[hasty scaffold]

mana stacking sorc, that's why everyone's doing it.

[errant pebble]

I can buy supporter packs from in game right ?

[rough shuttle]

By chance any others? he ain't a big fan of sorc

[hasty scaffold]

hammer-throw-that-pros-smite paladin have had around a 3x dps boost.

[rough shuttle]

Any guide or video in regards to it. ?

[hasty scaffold]

the idols used to give at most 30% chance to proc smite, now it gives 100% chance at high end.

hammers can hit 3 times so that's 3x per hammer

[naive pike]

Is there some kind of list of what the optimal quests are to do?

[toxic echo]

letools has a quest list that gives actual passive and idol rewards

[naive pike]

Yeah but it's hard to tell from the list which ones are optimal.

Like there's one quest that gives two skill points, but also is kind of lengthy going through several optional zones.

[obsidian zealot]

What do you mean by "optimal" ? What's optimal for you ?

[toxic echo]

i see. i mean which ever ones you run across really. most are on the MSQ path anyways. not alot of extra running around

[naive pike]

Quests that are easy to do while at the same time also doing something else.

[obsidian zealot]

The most optimal is probably rush to the end then come back higher level.

[toxic echo]

and hwo far you plan on playing the campaign

[junior garden]

when can i install 1.1

[naive pike]

Just the whole thing.

[storm blaze]

when the patch is out

[junior garden]

cringe

[frail plinth]

Hi, will there be preload or do we need to download the patch in 1 hour?

[storm blaze]

no predownload.

[naive pike]

I like consuming the content so I tend to just do it all and also don't really do the whole avoiding monsters thing because I like fighting.

Not quite the same as cleaning the map.

Which I then don't do.

[native bluff]

when patch?

[storm blaze]

There's a neat counter on their site.
You should probably have a look

[obsidian zealot]

In the next 2 hours @native bluff

[storm blaze]

Anyway, it's in 57minutes

[native bluff]

i mean the update game

[storm blaze]

The patch comes out at the same time.

[obsidian zealot]

Thought on warlock, still pretty decent or got nerfed to the ground ?

[toxic echo]

its fine

[junior garden]

Rank 12: Prophecies grant twice as many items (Previously Rank 10 - Changed, formerly “Items from Prophecies are duplicated”)
No longer duplicates the actual granted reward, but instead considers as if you had the prophecy itself twice, meaning it can roll different Uniques, for example.

honestly

goated change

its the same as it was but it gives you new stuff

[sleek ruin]

Why theres still no le update on my steam

[storm blaze]

Because it comes out in an hour.

[glad jay]

? in a hour ?

isnt it 11 by ct time ?

[junior garden]

💀

ct isnt conneticut

[storm blaze]

It's currently 10:06am CT

CT being central time

[glad jay]

alr

[mystic sapphire]

would like to play disintergrate, any recommended build guides out there that i can follow? thanks in advance!

[stark sage]

will the servers be back in an hour?

[toxic echo]

roughly

[crude mango]

Do minions share your crit strike chance?

[storm blaze]

no

[crude mango]

Thanks

[quick crown]

how soon can we start patching? half an hour before servers go back up? or do we have to wait until servers go back up before we can start patching?

[acoustic thicket]

servers are down for the update? is that why I'm getting LE-52?

[quick crown]

yes

[bleak sapphire]

this is literally the only disintegrate guide i found for 1.1
https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/BZkZ1LVo

[storm blaze]

Got to wait until servers are back up

[neon compass]

[crude mango]

And if your minions ignite on hit, it only scales with minion fire damage and not regular fire damage increases, correct?

[storm blaze]

Correct
But it also does benefit from generic minion dmg

[naive pike]

Like, for example, there is I think a skill point quest you can do while you're going through the mines.

[crude mango]

It'd be minion damage + minion fire damage + Minion damage over time, I'd assume?

[gentle crater]

Hm... so we need to patch manually game in 44 minutes?

[naive pike]

Not necessarily manually steam will update it.

[mystic sapphire]

thanks bud

[naive pike]

Last time some of us needed to restart Steam to get it to download the patch though.

[toxic echo]

steam should auto start, but, manually is typically faster

[crude mango]

I had thought it was 11 PST, but I guess I misread

[cobalt raft]

make sure steam update for LE is set to high priority otherwise it just gets scheduled

[obtuse furnace]

hey guys, can anyone point me to a autobomber-y build ffor 1.1 ? Hurt my hand and am kinda limited in the buttom pressing department

[bleak sapphire]

if you want a small video on it, its from actionRPG
#🎥┃video-shoutout message

[onyx tide]

is the new faction in addition to the excisting ones or I can only have 1 ?

[crude mango]

And if it's only one, do you keep your rank in the previous one?

And elemental damage leeched as health only works if you deal it, not your minions?

Trying to figure out this whole minion build stat thing.

[toxic echo]

in addition. you get FK and one of the item ones

[onyx tide]

niice ty

[wide bloom]

Can item effects from gloves be triggered by animated weapons using the Phantom Grip gloves? It's only stats right? Not item effects.

[flint hazel]

any good build guide for lighting blast?

[naive pike]

So... Nobody made this list of the best quests to choose? Like ones that are along the path of the main quest or a different one? I feel like the one that gives two passive points is bait.

[little bridge]

What class and skill you guys recomend this time around?

[naive pike]

Whatever suits your play style best. There's a lot of good options.

[dreamy kettle]

since the smite hammerdin got a nerf I'm gonna start with a blade dancer build

[molten ermine]

there's a ton more passive quests to choose than there's passives to take so just skip

[small sinew]

Can anyone here tell me as a noob: patching with steam means logging in at 6 pm MEZ and wait for the patch, then intop qeue?

[silver rover]

more like spam restart steam until you see the update but ya

[naive pike]

I know this. It's because I know this that I'm asking in the first place.

[cobalt raft]

@small sinew yes there is one more download before you can login to play

[heady hound]

whats the point of building a character again in new cycle? whats the point if i cannot enjoy my alrd made character before 1.1

[molten ermine]

dunno if someone made a complete strat yet

[small sinew]

@silver rover Why restarting steam to see the update?

[molten ermine]

speedrunning hasn't gotten quite off yet it seems

[naive pike]

Ok I guess I'll figure it out.

[silver rover]

because the update doesnt get pushed automatically to your client sometimes so restarting will make it show up

[naive pike]

I don't wanna do that one quest anymore. I prefer to replace them with quests that exist in zones I'm already in.

[small sinew]

tyvm

[molten ermine]

and then post the strategy guide

[steady tide]

play something totally differeeent than last time

[naive pike]

I think you meant to reply to the other guy.

[molten ermine]

str stacking sorcerer

[steady tide]

maybe

[errant nest]

Do we know the drop chance of "rarer" uniques from Monolith bosses?

Im seeing things like Common 50%, but other non-common items on LETools dont show a drop chance

[molten ermine]

mby on #👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs

[toxic echo]

if its not shown on letools, no

[hallow wagon]

new content, new economy, new balance patch, why not?

[errant nest]

I mean, they still can cant they? Or is all of the updated stuff ONLY on new characters?

[heady hound]

i wouldnt call a doing 1mape 100times a content surly they adding more things rn but yeah if im going to spend 100hours and leave pointless

[hallow wagon]

all updates should work for legacy charcters also

[bleak sapphire]

The point of most ARPG's is the ride to 100 not playing your old characters that are already 100

[cobalt raft]

only thing locked to them is new boss they dont get released till new cycle clears them or a week passes

[naive pike]

Generally everyone gets everything, although I must point out, it's not new characters, it's cycle characters.

[lost jasper]

is there an expected time of the season launch?

[errant nest]

sorry I was implying that

[hallow wagon]

cycle characters are new characters tho.

[bleak sapphire]

30 mins

[naive pike]

New characters aren't necessarily cycle characters.

[hallow wagon]

yeah read what i said

[naive pike]

I did?

[lost jasper]

oh, I thought they start updating then, not launching, aight I read it wrong then thx

[naive pike]

Only the pinnacle boss is excluded from legacy, and only temporarily.

Once the boss is defeated by somebody in cycle, it will unlock in legacy and offline.

[distant vapor]

have they said something about corruption for alts? hope to not be stuck with 1 main this league because the pain of corruption.

[ember schooner]

Yes, this is more faster.

[bleak sapphire]

new item boost corruption on alts

[heady hound]

@bleak sapphireyeah of course but there's no mapes no events no bosses nothing,. just upgrade eq and keep doing same mape, no daiy quests no challengers nothing maybe im complaining but surly will waste time on something better

[distant vapor]

cool good thanks!

[naive pike]

Might be, but you can speedrun alts through normal timelines now using the new glyph. You also only need to complete one of the lv90 timelines on an alt.

[bleak sapphire]

honestly most people playing are only playing this for 2 weeks tops and then jumping onto the poe league xD

[naive pike]

I mean I won't be playing PoE for a good while. I'm done with that game now that LE exists.

[timid belfry]

hey guys when new cycle is starting in le?

[heady hound]

indeed i meant a game like u grind for a year then u have something etc

[flint hazel]

POE is too tiring for me lol

[bleak sapphire]

6 months from now

[naive pike]

I'll play for about a month and then move on. And that is not a bad thing. It is good that I don't have to play this game every day for the rest of my life. Dear god.

[deep rover]

hey if i empower nemesis and die do i lose those items? or can i try it again when i encounter nemesis again?

[dark talon]

Hi everyone. Does the merchants guild still feel like trash? Or have they actually made trading good in the game?

[hollow fjord]

only until POE2, then back to that

[flint hazel]

I play each season in all ARPGs except poe lol

[naive pike]

Like imagine a game respecting your time. XD

I somehow feel I won't play PoE2 more than once or twice.

[flint hazel]

My goal this cycle is to kill the Pinacle boss which would take time for me, coz work and family

[naive pike]

Take your time, lest you burn out.

[flint hazel]

yeah, I play relaxed

[sweet blade]

So now cof is basically meta

[flint hazel]

I was trying torchlight infinite past couple of days and it's kinda fun too

[naive pike]

I think the quest "Evacuation" can be done the same time as the main quest?

[proud scarab]

is the game down right now? cant seem to play not even offline

[naive pike]

How so?

It's literally just a matter of, do you like to grind for you gear or do you just want to buy it?

[sweet blade]

They didnt adress any issues with the hyperinflated market due to gold botting and also buffed cof so that you now gain bonuses for boss drop only legendaries as well

[dark talon]

Because if it requires the same amount of grind to get the items as it does to buy them, why even go mg?

[silver rover]

MG is always better if you know what you're doing that'll never change

[naive pike]

Because I like buying the items I need instead of praying to RNGesus?

[cobalt raft]

@proud scarab for another 20m yes

[dark talon]

MG Is trash design, letting the economy regulate itself makes it more exciting to find high ticket items you can sell. Also most people trade to funnel alts etc.

[silver rover]

It is MUCH better to just buy the lp uniques you need instead of spending 40 hours playtime looking for a 2 lp exsang
