[sly raptor]

thx

[crystal jackal]

how do you calculate how much dmg armor shred gives you?

do you count the number of armor shred you can get on the target, multiply it by 100, then use the player armor dmg reduction formula, and then multuply the dmg with that dmg reduction number?

[pure pond]

Usually people just try to reach 100-200 stacks in order to melt basic armor of bosses + get some extra damage. Not so much people bothering by calculating that but for excel sheet warriors it is the way you've described, yes

Join us and use excel sheets too)

[faint cape]

Use the shred tab https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/armor

[crystal jackal]

excel sheet warrior reporting in

[desert tree]

There is no such thing as "basic armor".

Mobs have 0 armor.

Any stack of shred makes armor go to negative

[pure pond]

Really? Nice to know, thanks. Always thought that bosses have like 8-10k because without armor shred they appears as much more tankier (while armor shred increase damage by at most 85% if there is no any so not even double)

[vital violet]

is it beneficial to overcap resistances or is 75% enough?

[surreal verge]

Unless you're preventing shred, marked for death or a unique/passive node/skill node, there's no reason to overcap.

[vocal plank]

Do harbingers spawn every time now? I thought it was only at certain corruptions

[crystal jackal]

yeah, they all have 0, but there's diminishing returns...that's why you stop gaining any benefit once you have a certain amount of stacks

[vocal plank]

Yours look allot cleaner than mine

[pure pond]

I know both formula and stacking rules but I thought I need a lot more than it is actually effective. Like 2-3 times

[desert tree]

It's not increased it's More Dmg

[pure pond]

I know 🙂 I meant common sense increasing, not in-game wording

[faint cape]

Once you "unlock" the harbinger for a timeline by defeating it for the first time for the quest, it then spawns every time regardless of corruption

[vocal plank]

That is so unfortunate. Because I struggle because... I guess my build sucks idk

[faint cape]

Some harbingers are definitely rougher than others

The checkbox on the crest to disable the spawn also isn't working right now

[vocal plank]

It's only the one in Ruin. Or whatever the void version of the lvl 90 zones is. Because man, I feel I have decent gear and I just cannot survive.

[faint cape]

But it's intended to let you skip the harbinger once you've unlocked it

[crystal jackal]

what build are you playing?

[vocal plank]

Self crafted.
Void Knight Smite. It's honestly very meh, and even with 90 vit, 2.3k armor and 2631 health I just cannot stay alive.
I genuinely hate leech as a mechanic, and this build relies on it so heavily it's painful.

Idk if you know the ramping gif that Empy has but my health looks like that perpetually.

what's your main dmg skill? smite?

[vocal plank]

Yea. It' s self cast smite.
Looked fun, and the casting is fun, but man. It is not good lol

[crystal jackal]

I don't understand how your dmg is scaling...how is void dmg scaling your smite?

[vocal plank]

Temporal Corruption. First node in the middle of the Void Knight tree

And then Renouncement is why I'm using Vitality instead of Attunement.

[crystal jackal]

aha, I see

[vocal plank]

Yea the damage is actually pretty nice for where I am. But the event mobs, combined with the fact that leech is just bad imo, makes it feel bad

[crystal jackal]

you have quite low ehp

[vocal plank]

I know. I'm only at 100c. So it has a long way to go

[crystal jackal]

never really played void knight, so hard to give any advice 😦

only played holy trail javelin pala on the sentinel

[vocal plank]

I get that.

[crystal jackal]

I league started on a cold HoA build, was very smooth all the way until 500-600 corruption when some things like randomly one-shot even though I had a tankier char than before reset and I was on 800 corruption then

[vocal plank]

I assume that's a wizard

[crystal jackal]

marksman

[vocal plank]

Ah ok.

[crystal jackal]

cold conversion hail of arrows

[pure pond]

You might try Faith in sigil tree + ekkdrasil helm with vitality slam, they provide a lot of survivability for cheap

Also upgrade endurance to 60% at least, with ekkdrasil you need even more

[crystal jackal]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/profile/deew/character/saavy

[vocal plank]

What is that helm? I don't see it

[pure pond]

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

[vocal plank]

That requires me to be able to get to that point

[crystal jackal]

it's from aberroth...you're not going to have it if you're stuck on 100 corruption 😦

[vocal plank]

Yea

And no, I can't buy it. I'm not MG

[pure pond]

Faith at least not from aberroth

[vocal plank]

No we're not talking about faith. We're talking about the helm

The other part of your suggestion.

[pure pond]

Yeah, but endurance nice to have at 60% even without it. Endurance + faith already boost your survivability significantly. Better to have more healing effectiveness with this build though

[vocal plank]

Yea I had it at 60. I don't know when I lost that extra bit

Either way it doesn't help to much since I still go splat.
But anyway I might just wait for this event to be over because the monsters are to overtuned for my tastes.

[fluid cedar]

Probably a dumb question, but:
My (aka my characters) "increased armor shred effect" does NOT count for armor shred effect stacks applied by my minions, is that correct?

[vocal plank]

Yea. Only thing that effects minions is things that say minion with very few exceptions. But those exceptions are like, balista that get crit chance/multi based on yours with a specific node in the tree

[fluid cedar]

Thanks.

I wonder if there is any "minion increased armor shred effect" in the game as an affix

[desert tree]

It is correct but there is exception

If you play MA it will

[desert tree]

I don't think so

[vocal plank]

I don't see any affixes for minions.

[fluid cedar]

FG i'm playing
Oh well. Thanks, you two.

[tardy siren]

hey guys. when you start a new character there is lightless arbour key tahts awlays drop in a chest. which waypoint is it ?

[faint cape]

FG minions can copy stats from certain equipment slots. If you have "increased armor shred effect" on your armor for example, your manifested armor will gain armor shred effect.

[fluid cedar]

As far as i found, only weapon and gloves. Neither of it has "increased armor shred effect".

I did found a T6 "479% chance to shred armor on hit" two hand at the beginning of the first monolith though.
So that is fun.

But i'm also already sad about the future. I wanted to try out the Forged Weapon Set. But it has a weapon as part of the set, making it impossible to "forge" my own.

[rigid totem]

for some reason i still havent fully grasped how/if prophecies and the area you pop them in interact - if i pop a prophecy in a tier 1 dungeon can the highest base items and/or t7 affixes drop, or not?

actually my real question is: does anything at all affect/limit what prophecies can give you? if so what (character level, area it pops in level, ..)?

[fluid cedar]

I meant only weapon and gloves can affect Forged Weapon minions as you mentioned.
And those 2 don't have that affix.

Sorry for the confusion.

[faint cape]

Manifest Armor was what I was saying, it does different equipment

I don't know of anything for weapons or gloves off the top of my head

actually

[surreal verge]

There is one.

[faint cape]

yeh I was about to snag that same pic hah

[surreal verge]

Ninja-ed

But it is kinda a mid weapon, at least it's one-handed.

[sonic crane]

WTF SERVER WTF

I WAIT 1HOUR

[fluid cedar]

Ooooohhh.
Sadly also on the weapon. But to be expected.

[faint cape]

Classic Steam Tuesdays

[fluid cedar]

Not yet though, normally in like 4-5 hours, or not?

[faint cape]

Should be over already, but an hour ago it was probably happening

[tranquil flicker]

This might help:
https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1230894608406413412

[desert tree]

Imo the Sun Forged Set is not for meant for your weapons doing Dmg but for you doing Dmg and getting various Buffs thx to the Weapons

[fluid cedar]

My point still stands though, i can't "forge", or "modify" my forged weapons by using a crafted weapon. Be it for damage or utility like armor shredding.

Not really a complaint, and rather "feels sad" kind a thing.

[proven belfry]

which builds have the biggest individual numbers?
currently assemble abomination gave me the best results

tried wraithlord but surprisingly it seemed to do less (but while being more reliable)

[severe valve]

since the last patch i have a lot of small laggs while doing echos is anyone encountering the same issues?

[fickle oasis]

I got a harbinger eye and im unsure what to do now

i think i right clicked it now its out of my inventory

[crystal jackal]

when you kill all 10 harbingers you can use the eye's to fight aberroth, the end game boss

[fickle oasis]

so just right click on each eye I get and eventually it'll allow me to fight that boss?

[crystal jackal]

save them in your stash for now.

[fickle oasis]

oh, welp one of them is gone bc i right clicked it lol

[crystal jackal]

what do you mean gone? you can't use them up

[toxic echo]

when in the shattered road area, in the back is the gate to use the eyes to fight aberroth

[fickle oasis]

maybe i put it in my stash im unsure let me look

[crystal jackal]

are you talking about these?

[fickle oasis]

yep that i got one of those

[crystal jackal]

nothing happens when you right click it.
unless you shift+right click in which case you throw it out on the ground if your stash isn't open

[fickle oasis]

okay tbh i have no clue what happened to it.

So I need a certain number of them to fight the boss?

[crystal jackal]

no, each eye lets you fight the boss once. but you need to kill all 10 harbingers before it will allow you to start the Aberroth fight

each time you kill a harbinger the first time it has a 100% chance to drop an eye.
after that each time you kill a harbinger again it has a chance to drop another eye....higher chance in higher corruption

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/resources/forgotten-knights-overview

[fickle oasis]

Okay thank u very much ^^

[sterile stream]

How armor shred and dmg type shred (eg fire shred) works? Is it multi? Is it the same?

[desert tree]

Armor Shred mitigates only Hit, and is 70% Effective for non Physical Hits. It acts as a More Dmg
Other Shreds are in fact Resistance Shreds. Works for any kind of Dmg (as long as its the same type). Its another More Dmg

@sterile stream

[hollow vigil]

how many item rarity or corrupt i need to heave, to get max chance?

[crystal jackal]

1: look how many stacks of armor shred you have on the enemy....
2: look up the corresponding value here: https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/armor (make sure you select the shred tab)
3: multiply your dmg with that number

[supple raptor]

Some monsters are very strong, ugh?!

[toxic echo]

That might be a bug. That spell only has 80 base dmg, so, unless you are rocking insanely high corruption/mods, there be something wrong with the calcs

[pearl plank]

losing connection everytime i go back to town xD

any fix?

game has been buggy as hell since 1.0

[toxic echo]

Verify files / pick a different server

Tho if you could throw in a bug report about the towns

[supple raptor]

Well, i got bugged then.
Its just 700 corruption
Also, 75% fire res

[pearl plank]

i sent one to them already

doesnt disconnect anywhere else

just every single town

[toxic echo]

Yeah, there have been a couple people complaining about the towns and dc'ing. But nothing like a full blown server outage. A different server/different routing to the server should help

[pearl plank]

lets hope

[toxic echo]

Its possible...bug report it and move outta the way next time 😜

[pearl plank]

i started playing again with the 1.0 release along with 3 friends, totally unplayable multiplayer for months

[toxic echo]

Yeah, mp either works fine or doesnt work at all for groups. Its gotten a bit better since 1.0, but, some are still having problems. Its unfortunantly hard to track the problems that only effect a small portion of the player base. Bug reports let the devs know its still a problem and gives them more info on whats wrong

[pearl plank]

just a shame gotta wait another year or however long to play a game i bought 4 years ago xD

[pure pond]

Can confirm too, covenant dominion deal absurd amount of damage with some of its abilities, much more than all other enemies including imperials.

Like, you slash through the echoes feeling invulnerable because of high ehp and good sustain but standing under X-shaped attack turns you dead with overkill damage higher that lagon's moon shot

[pearl plank]

still having the same issue, firewall checked, pc restarted

[pure pond]

It seems like LE highly dependent on hardware. Some of it just makes game barely playable. As I remember PoE had the same problem for years until they get investment from 1/5 of 50 Cent and made a lot of differend hardware setups in their office.

[old marsh]

To what corruption is Julra T4 comparable?

[pure pond]

Basically 300 but I'd say 400-ish because fight is hard for non-oneshot builds

[crystal jackal]

and it's full of desync buggs...I've been killed by the DoT beam several times before I can even see that Im touching it

[pearl plank]

ive got a 3080, 32gb of ram, ryzen 7 5800x, if it needs better hardware then idk what to do

[pure pond]

There is no meaning in power of your setup, it just not suited for the game. Like, people there complaining about stutters on 4090 while other playing smoothly on smth like GTX880

[pearl plank]

ah i see

thats a shame then

[pure pond]

I believe it something with Unity hardware processing

It done differently on different setups someway

[pearl plank]

welp lost connection trying to go somehwere 5 times in a row

time to put the game back into storage

[pure pond]

Return at 1.2 patch, they'll update engine to new version

[pearl plank]

yeah its been 4 years, whats another few months xD

[pure pond]

Also I'm not sure is it possible for LE to change rendering API, but it may help. Like, for some games I had stutters and lags for every move using DirectX 10/11 or Vulcan while DirectX 12 provided perfect performance. And vice versa, some games running smoothly on Vulcan and lagging with DX. Try to investigate this, who know what may help.

[tranquil drift]

Is this worth making a build for?

[tame lagoon]

Hey! 😄 Asking on reddit was useless so here goes nothing

I've been stuck with the idea of making an electrify centric build for a while now. This is what I've came up with so far https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/Q9vrz2EB
The idea is to proc as many smites as possible via multistrike and healing hands. I don't see a way to pick up bladestorm w/out going oom in 2-3 swings however.
Javelins is taken as a mean of movement with increased electrify proc and more lightning damage via standard. Free smites as well.
I'm not sure the ignite from sigils will translate into more electrify chance for smite.
Idk how much ward healing hand will generate but it should be at worse a tiny bit of effective hp added to the build.

It doesn't matter if this cannot go over 500 corruption. This is about fun.
Any idea on how to improve it? (I didn't include gear from Aberoth as I have yet to kill it)

Thanks 😘

[low shadow]

that gear you have in the planer is IMPOSSIBLE to get

2 red rings WITH DOUBLE T7 that alone takes a year of grind all day 8h

[desert tree]

Its not 2 RR

[low shadow]

oh yeah only one but yeah still

[tame lagoon]

It's set for best case scenario and dreams. Of course other stuff can be used. Suggestion are more than welcome. I have very little experience

[low shadow]

why are you stacjing vitality?

[tame lagoon]

I couldn't think of anything else worthwhile at the time. Electrify doesn't scale with base stats, so more hp to survive since dual-wielding

[low shadow]

make that all items have only one T7 2 T7 is not realy archiable

[low shadow]

electrify scales with the skill that applies it so it scales with attunment for smite

[tame lagoon]

wait what

[low shadow]

and take that node its a 3.5x dmg multiplier

[low shadow]

ailments take all the dmg modifiers unless statet otherwise

thats more dmg

[tame lagoon]

I've never seen any information about ailments scaling with the skill that apply it

[low shadow]

https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/resources/ailments-explained that explains everything i think

[tame lagoon]

Thank you, I started to dig about it

[low shadow]

you waste alot of stats dont build both

take EITHER avoid OR reduced but never both

you can take that blessing instead of all res

youre res is WAY over cap

[tame lagoon]

That's something else: Doesn't enemy gets res penetration up to a cap from level?

[low shadow]

yeah sometimes but you cannot do anything against it 75 is the cap everything above it is useless unless you take an item that benefits from that

[tame lagoon]

Unless

It says going above 75 does nothing UNLESS you're getting shredded : IE, you can stay at 75 while shredded

no?

Perhaps it's not worth but I was under the assuption that damage taken is the main issue when scaling up corruption

[low shadow]

no 75 is the cap

[fringe night]

what are enemies with white circles around them?

[warm onyx]

is that confirmed?

[worn fable]

When doing LP in sanctum can i use a piece from another class to add a prefix/suffix to my sentinel body?

[empty ridge]

Hello.

Hope you all are doing well

[pure pond]

Yes, but it is not intended as per Mike's words

[worn fable]

I got a sentinel one but thanks

[round grove]

Jesus, is it just me struggling with the harbinger of fear? She casts tri-beam without any visual warning and pre-cast animations, instakilling if the beam happens to spawn right on my char.

Starting to boil trying to kill her 2 days straight

[runic sedge]

That's true, but the 75% penetration enemies get means that being slightly under res cap doesn't really matter, so it's not worth building over capped res for shred when you could use those affixes for other defenses

[native bay]

what to do if my online character dissapeared?

[pure pond]

She is screaming like "keep running" before tri-beam IIRC

Turn on sounds

[round grove]

Still no visuals. I can't understand where the beam will land

It happens to land on the character quite often

[native bay]

why do my online character keep dissapearing?

[tame lagoon]

Which defense would you change in the now incredibly flawed setup. Learning that ailment scale with dmg in skill tree actually means I have to start over.

[round grove]

Which is instakill even for my 3800 HP full res void knight

[tame lagoon]

If been at 150 res means actually been at 75 at high level (not regarding actual shred debuff), what could possibly be better than that?

[pure pond]

Placing of tri-beam depends on her position so try to look at the angle between her and beams spawned. For me it is already automatic action so I don't even think about where to stay during the fight.

[tame lagoon]

I was looking at it from a D2 perspective, like the -100 res in hell

[round grove]

it really seems like an animation bug rather that a tricky mechanics

[runic sedge]

But you aren't, it's capped at 75, then 75 pen is applied, leaving you at 0. Only shred is mitigated by overcapping

[round grove]

Cos from time to time I can see the lines like the ones Gaspar has, but for mere 0.1-0.5 secs

[tame lagoon]

Ooof, gotcha

[pure pond]

Report it in-game as a bug if you consider it wrong then. Devs looking at all reports there

[round grove]

already did

none of all the other harbies gave that much struggle and frustration

they are challenging - yes. But this one is stupidly broken

it acts too fast, it has too much stuff to dodge and it casts without any chance to follow her move

[pure pond]

Actually spirits of fire' harb is much more frustrating for me because magma balls coming from the edge of the screen oneshotting you

While gaspar's arena relatively small

[round grove]

and a pain in the butt for a melee char 😄

[tame lagoon]

If i have an idol that increase smite damage like these, would that also amplify ailments applied by smite like damage nodes in the skill tree?

[runic sedge]

Yes.

Watch out for things like "spell damage" or "melee damage" or "hit damage". Your ailments are none of those things and won't use those modifiers even if the skill applying them does

But generic damage or damage of the appropriate type will work fine

[faint cape]

@pure pond I think what you're asking is, does the 1 LP prophecy improve the chance for 2+ LP?
The answer is no, the prophecy effect simply gives 1 LP if the item totally failed its LP roll.
This is different from the double LP chance rank bonus, which actually does double that 1 LP roll chance that needs to pass before it rolls for 2 LP (and so on).

[pure pond]

Not exactly this. What you're describing - it is consequence of having or not having "seed"-like mechanic for items (compared to pure random/pseudorandom)

[faint cape]

A seed is pseudorandom, and yes that's what is used for all rng in the game afaik

[pure pond]

Seems like you do not understand difference between seed and pseudorandom. Seed - it is random combination for something that predefines any further actions with that particular entity, actually predicting them with 100% probability. Pseudorandom - it is a system which increase your chances for something on fail. I.e. lets **imagine **it implemented for Glyph of Hope. At the first use you will have 25% "true random" chance for it to proc. If succeeded, it reset to some basic chance, usually 4-5 times less (i.e. WC3, DOTA 2 use such values). If not, your chance to proc Glyph go up to smth like "true" 35% or so. If you fail again, it goes to "true" 50%, and so on until you'll have guaranteed hit (some systems stops at 75/80/90/95% so there is still some chance to fail many times in a row). After proc/hit chance is reset again and you continue to roll. So they are completely different and serve different purposes.

[faint cape]

No, pseudorandom is rng following a seed or something like that. It's just not "true" random. That is what the game uses, and the seed is completely arbitrary, so it doesn't really matter for players. LE uses the default random implementation from Unity, it's Mathf.Random or something, you can look up the Unity docs on how it generates the seed it uses.

[pine thistle]

why is confluence of fate considered a dmg boost for like static orb sorc when the flat spell dmg modifiers are not lightnig dmg

[torn sierra]

because flat damage is applied to a skill regardless of its damage type

[pure pond]

Pseudorandom may be used without seed and vice versa. Like, critical strikes in DOTA cannot have any seed by definitions but they use pseudorandomness. You just mix up two different terms

[sly fable]

Doesn't the beam always spawn in the center of the arena?

[round grove]

It does (but actually sometimes it bugs too and spawns just under the harbinger wherever she is right now) but the trouble is - there isn't any visual indication of where the beams would start. So if you happen to stand on the beam starting position - bang, you're dead, buddy

[sly fable]

Well, I thought it always spawns in thr center. To beat the boss you just avoid the center of the arena when the visual que plays. Or just...always, if you prefer being safe

[round grove]

I finally managed to beat her but that's like the worst experience I had so far in the game I wish no one to have

Too much things to handle on top of buggy interaction

[rich flame]

skill issue

[faint cape]

I can practically guarantee you DOTA uses a seed for their crit chance, it's an extremely common programming practice. Here's the Unity doc on for what I think (if I recall what Mike said correctly) is the method LE uses to generate pseudorandom numbers - https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Random.html
It also includes a handy link to the Wikipedia page on pseudorandom number generation. I don't know what definition you're using for pseudorandom, but this is what it means in computer science/programming, at least, and is what I mean when I say they use seeds.

[round grove]

It would if other 8 harbies left the same level of embarrassment and dissatisfaction. But they were quite satisfying

[rich flame]

They all kinda felt the same to me, while they stand there aimlessly permabashed by my shield 😄

[pine thistle]

does that mean that anything with flat spell damage modifiers will increase your spell damage regardless of the specific element of modifier? is +15 spell damage the same as +15 fire spell damage?

[surreal verge]

Correct, but they still respect the damage type, so +15 fire spell damage can only be scaled by % spell or % fire ( +X spell damage is adaptive to the skill)

[rich flame]

15 spell damage is not the same as 15 fire damage

fire damage also gives bonuses to ignite etc, spell damage does not

So if ur fire spec, fire dmg would be better

[pine thistle]

so confluence of fate gives 3 different types of +15 spell damage. since im lightning my build wont be able to benefit from the spell scaling for those types but will still benefit generally from the +45 spell damage?

[surreal verge]

Kind of, yes.

[faint cape]

This is true for % increased damage, but added damage does not affect ignite

[rich flame]

Yeah for % damage not added dmg

[pine thistle]

will the +45 spell damage benefit from the general +spell damage increase %

[surreal verge]

Yes, it’s spell damage after all

[pine thistle]

does it double dip? e.g. if i have +increase element spell dmg %and + increae spell dmg %

is there a formula for dmg

[surreal verge]

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

Tldr: (base damage+ flat) x ( all % increases) x (% more 1) x (% more 2)…

[pure pond]

If DOTA would use a seed cheats that makes every your hit critical were not possible, because every attack would be predicted from the start of the match no matter is anyone using crit or no. You're just talking nonsense about something different, idk. Seed is a way to **predefine **something predicting 100% of outcomes no matter the player decision or electron spin in CPU. Pseudorandom is a way to smooth out influence of true random on any mechanic implying randomness so average % will be close to specified even on the short distances so player's experience will be better. Pseudorandom uses true random as second, sometimes third layer of randomness smoothing the spread between expected and actual outcomes of random, especially with small numbers of tries. So calculations implied on EVERY stage of rolling pseudorandom (and underlying "true" random) values while for seed they are predefined and cannot be influenced by any factors after seed's generation.

[surreal verge]

Anyway, the method LE uses wouldn’t matter because the min LP propercies apply at the END of the LP roll

[faint cape]

Well, that's not right by any definitions I know of, but I think we're getting caught up on definitions here. What exactly are you trying to understand about the random used in LE?

There's no way to predict the result, if that's the concern. Unless EHG makes the roll on the client side rather than server side, which would be... odd.

[pure pond]

It depends, actually, if you've decided to speak about client/server decision distribution. You can implement randomness on several stages. One I've asking about it is stage of dropping item. So when item is dropped are all actions for it predefined by any variation of seed or they are random/pseudorandom for all or some further manipulations with item? Actually, that "seed" may be generated on server side and after that all further changes of item will be predicted and known on client side. Or "seed" is generated on server side and its consequent results are also sent to client on executing particular action? Or there is no any "seed" at all? I doubt that you might know the answer so I've asking devs about it. And the most obvious consequence of this it is LP chances rolling comparing to guaranteed roll of LP from prophecy.

[faint cape]

Last Epoch is server authoritative. That means that outside of bugs, security oversights, and certain other things, the game logic is done on the server side, and the client is only informed of the result.
The same is true for dropping an item. The server uses a random number generator and game logic to decide everything about whatever item it wants to drop, then it tells the client "here's an item that's dropping". The actual implementation of the random doesn't matter really.

All seeds used for that are generated and stored on the server.

[pine thistle]

which has better end game in terms of bossing/monos. frost claw lightning/static orb or glacier/meteor + static orb sorc?

[rich flame]

Whichever one u have the better gear for but prolly glacier

[pure pond]

Thats all very interesting but I've already learned that you operate with very specific and not commonly distributed understanding of randomness and all related things so I prefer not to rely on your explanations 🙂 Ngl, I hope you're working somewhere that will never affect my life

[faint cape]

Er, ok then. If you get an answer, they'll tell you the same thing.

[storm wren]

When icons of prophecies are updated? (Never see this type)

[faint cape]

They haven't been updated for a while, why?

[storm wren]

❔ Why icons on his prophecy selection page is different

[faint cape]

Like, not showing the icon by the star? That's a checkbox option on the bottom right (mostly hidden by the human)

[pure pond]

I will be surprised if they will say me that seed and pseudorandom are essentially the same things... Regarding client-server you might be right for sure but I have no option to rely on your words at all, I'm sorry man

[lean elbow]

does stash tab affinity not let me sort weavers will items?

[faint cape]

It does, if you select in rarity only "unique" it'll pop up LP and WW options

[pure pond]

It does but you need to place WW tab before other tabs with unique affinity

[faint cape]

Yeah that too (or set 0 WW on tabs to the left)

[pure pond]

WW criteria reset LP criteria so it is not usable usually

[lean elbow]

oh ok i have my legendary and uniques together for now.

[faint cape]

You don't have to take my word for it, really it's better if you don't. I did link you the source for that reason.

[pure pond]

Your link saying about other things. You just see no difference between things wrote there and what I'm talking about. I'm not able to force people understand words as they meant to be understood, I'm not a god

[topaz harbor]

is there a way to hide party members skill animations?

[faint cape]

Yeah, I suppose that link was a little too technical. Anyway, no big deal, hopefully you get your answer from the devs.

[faint cape]

Not currently, no. I think that is a great suggestion, though.

[topaz harbor]

yeah all the skills in the game or so big and flashy (normally cool) but i find it hard to see what i'm doing when i'm playing with friends

[timid juniper]

is there a way to fix the loot filter for unique items for setting them to 4LP? It was working but now when you select 'update' it just reverts back to 2LP

[faint cape]

It does seem to work if you don't touch it after setting it. It'll still say the wrong thing, but my rules seem to function right.

[low shadow]

does torment scale with flat spell dmg?

[surreal verge]

Yes, it's a spell.

[low shadow]

so torment deals 120dmg over 3sec if i have 60 spell dmg on my weapon thats 180dmg over 3sec?

[faint cape]

Maybe? I don't have the game open to see torment's added damage effectiveness (it's in chthonic fissure's alt text); if its dmg eff is 100% then yes that's right.

[surreal verge]

It's effectiveness is 200% I think, so 240 damage over 3.

[low shadow]

ok now i see why its busted

[surreal verge]

It's busted mostly because of these.

[low shadow]

yeah i know

now just make it stack XD

[low shadow]

how does witchfire scale if i take elemental damage over time does only the fire dmg get higher?

[surreal verge]

Only the fire damage gets improved

[low shadow]

i think witchfire needs another 2x dmg buff than i think its great

its only 100dmg per second AND its not scaling with main stat AND you cannot get more dmg multipliers that are in some skills AND it does not stack

[narrow ore]

Is all content available in Legacy? (Besides leaderboards, obvs)

I know in PoE, the 'season content' is usually ladder-only

[low shadow]

i think the event mobs are not in legacy

but to be honest they suck they oneshot you no matter how tanky you are

but all important content is in legacy

[narrow ore]

Thanks

[surreal verge]

There is a very wild more damage multiplier which scales pretty whack

[fickle oasis]

this is quite a specific question, but for anyone that plays wraithlord necro, i keep accidentally casting dread shade on one of the wraiths that isn't wraithlord. Is there a better way to cast this? Or do i have to have my cursor directly on top of the wraithlord everytime

[surreal verge]

All content, including the current skeleton event

[low shadow]

yeah thats about 150x more dmg but even with that i can reach only about 50k dps i my calculator

[surreal verge]

Yeah it’s by nature a clear skill.

[low shadow]

but torment has the same benefits it does not stack but has 10x more dmg than witchfire

and it skales with WAY more necro res increase dmg crit multi main stat and that compared to only 2 scalers is just unfair

[surreal verge]

One’s tied to a skill while witchfire is not tied to a skill, if you wana be fair. (It also self spreads)

[low shadow]

i think it just needs about 50% more dmg and torment needs a nerf than i think its balanced

[dense wasp]

and still everyone will play torment

[novel lotus]

He asked for more buffs for me🦎

[spring forge]

Does a rune of shattering not have a chance to get shards from a sealed affix?

[desert tree]

It does

[lost finch]

yo, is there any way to get an early auto-curse setup rdy if you wanna level with Harvest? or is Harvest pretty much a Skill to re-specc into later?

I see theres a Bone Curse Aura Node, but it sucks your mana so badly, heavy cost in levelling range
transplant has a curse-on-hit note, but its a cooldown based thing which feels clunky as hell early on

[low shadow]

that node can help

literaly has the harvest symbol XD

[lost finch]

how the hell did I not see that :D thanks

[low shadow]

what class?

[lost finch]

not sure yet, I think of trying Lich, cause.. I like underdogs and wanna try them out lol

got a Falconer so I did my part on OP Masteries and dont want to get into Warlock

[surreal verge]

Don't use aura, it sucks.

[low shadow]

warlock could be funny aswell because the fissure curses enemys and it castst chaos bolts that can cast harvest in addition to you

[lost finch]

also trying to stay away from LEtools/Maxroll builds for now, but it would've been the next step if there was no answer to the curse question

[lost finch]

whaaat D: thats a bummer

[surreal verge]

You can't increase it's range, it breaks some nodes, and there's no method to slow the drain apart from getting mana regen.

[lost finch]

damn, I feared as much

RIP

maybe... in an upcoming Lich rework :'I

[low shadow]

yeah Lich needs a rework he is just too weak

[surreal verge]

Can't really say it's weak, more like "One-Dimensional"

With the correct setup it can hold it's own against warlock

[low shadow]

only realy zombie potion spam

[lost finch]

havent played one, but from the looks it seemed like "you play reaper or you play another mastery" lol

[surreal verge]

You forgot stygian poison lich.

[molten junco]

heyo everyone, my warlock currently feels rather squishy @500 corruption, anything i could do ? :(

[surreal verge]

You'll be right! (Or Death Seal, or both)

[surreal verge]

Without a planner so that we know what you or not it's hard to give you advice.

[molten junco]

sure, give me a moment

[low shadow]

its decent but 30sec aberoth kill

[surreal verge]

30sec is pretty good comapred to some other setups lmao

With no setup as well.

[low shadow]

yeah but nearly every class has some oneshot build

[surreal verge]

Health. Your health's too low. And there's a bunch of res overcaps.

[surreal verge]

Effeicency wise it beats out something like abom necro that needs time to setup-

Posion lich can go in and start pressing buttons, so i think that's an okay build.

[molten junco]

ye i'm mainly stacking ward, i got around 3k currently without being in combat

[surreal verge]

Yeah that's a low amount.

You'll notice that twisted heart gives you ward equal to a % of your health.

More health=more ward.

[molten junco]

ye i know but i dont reallly see where i could add more vitality or health, you're saying instead of the overcapped res?

my res are kinda scuffed at the moment, i'm capped on light and phys via blessings

[surreal verge]

Overcapping res does nothing unless something checks for it, like necrotic res for bonechamor

[molten junco]

ye i know, that's something im trying to fix currently

[surreal verge]

Then I got nothing much for you but that and "more health"

Vit is not efficent for health affix wise, get hybrid health if you can.

[molten junco]

that can roll on anything?

[surreal verge]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/suffixes/AAwZgbEA
Belt, Boots, Gloves.

[molten junco]

a ok perfect

i need to change boots and belt anyway

[grand shoal]

Aside from HP the main point may be movement. Around 400-600c you will find more and more attacks you will just need to dodge. The more you raise corr, the more you will need to adapt the playstyle, as most builds will stop to one-shot everything

[molten junco]

yea i'm tempted to drop one of my rings for a swiftness ring

[timid owl]

Is there an average time that you do echoes in? Lately at around 450 corruption, I was running a lot slower cause dodging and doing dmg is hard, is it normal that from like 30-60 sec echoes without searching for neme, I went to like 3-4 minutes?

[molten junco]

but i think i need CDR more than movement speed for my veil and transplant

[grand shoal]

Usually I personally would not push levels of corr that I can't run very conviniently until the very end of season

[grand shoal]

Seeing dangerous situations beforehand will eventually be the key I guess (aka it gets better with experience)

[timid owl]

So like, id it goes for more than 2 minute or 3 minutes probably

I guess I should lower a little

But I dont know how to get stronger to some extent, I dont wanna play a meta build, but its hard to cook something

[grand shoal]

450 isn't too bad,or?

Depending on the build you can already be happy

[timid owl]

I want to push more, I need to make my own build to push harder

If I can push 1k, I will be satisfied

(Perhaps)

[lost finch]

oh I got a question to his one, "cast bone curse on hit"
does it first HIT and then cast the curse, or does it first curse and THEN count the hit? lol
important for situations where you hit non-cursed enemies but want to get the hit-cursed-enemies effects of harvest

[surreal verge]

Just so you're aware before we go on: Dev's balacing point is 300c. Not every build will be able to go past 500c

[surreal verge]

Hit then curse.

[timid owl]

So basically only gamebreaking builds can go to 1k?

[lost finch]

whaaat thats uncool D:
so you always need at least 2 hits for the effects? oof

[surreal verge]

Great builds can hit 1k with enough work and effort.
Broken builds can do that without effort, and can high much more with effort.

[surreal verge]

Cast bone curse, hit, curse gets recast, repeat.

[grand shoal]

I wouldn't say that, but you need a very solid build, some experience as player and you really need to min-max a bit on your solid build

[timid owl]

I am trying to have a spin with falcon acidflask trap, I have found 2 unques that suit my build so far, so ye, I need to look out for more

[surreal verge]

Uhoh.

Is it the poison version?

[low shadow]

i think poison and cold are a bit weak i think fire is the strongest rn

[iron forge]

Heya, quick question;
Warpath scales with Attack speed so Frenzy should affect Warpath too right?
Just want to make sure there is no gotcha here which I don't know about 😄

[desert tree]

Yes

[iron forge]

Ty!🙏

[surreal verge]

Doesn't warpath scale at a lower ratio? It still does of course

[desert tree]

Not actually the AS is doubled

But it as less chance to apply ailments, and low Added Dmg Effectiveness

[timid owl]

I am still thinking, prob fire for now, maybe will switch at some point

[bronze stratus]

Hi everyone! I have a question about roll searching - is there a way to search rolls by roll value and not by percent of the min to max roll?

[surreal verge]

Oh then it should be okay? As long as you're not running poison.

[solemn parrot]

wierd question. is there a save/character editor that i can use for an offline character? i wanna test a few builds

[storm blaze]

We can't talk about that kind of stuff here

[crude jackal]

I'm not being able to log in, is there a way to check if I'm banned (even if temporarily)?

[solemn parrot]

oh are they not allowed or something?

[faint cape]

I think the game sends you an error code that says you're banned if you try to log in when you are banned

[storm blaze]

Just that talk about how to edit files of the game isn't allowed
But I'm sure you could google

[crude jackal]

Oh, I'm just receiving a LE-52 error since yesterday. I will try to troubleshoot a bit more, thanks!

[timid owl]

Idk if it is better to use bow or daggers tho I think i got a decent gear for a dagger trap setup, cant link it now, but idk if dragonsong Would be better

I eill link it whenever I can

I use the crit offhand dagger with 2 decent slammed stats, but like I said, I can clear 450, prob even 500 or 600 but slow, I need to run around a lot

[celest hatch]

so im making a pure melee flurry off meta build in offline, would like some suggestions to try out for weapons. ive currently been using a rainbow edege, though i know its not optmial for damage in endgame. id like to use a sheild with the build if possible, but im open to using dual wield. please @ me with any suggestions. * i dont want to use 2 handed weapons as i dont like the feel of them as much.

[surreal verge]

If it's rogue, there's the #🔪┃rogue channel if you wana post there as well.

[celest hatch]

im also open to just using non legendary weapons. but my resources are limited bc of it being offline mode, so a 4lp apogee is kinda off the table of course

[lofty terrace]

Outside if monolith effects, does bosses/enemies have crit reduction or avoidance

[storm blaze]

no

[crystal jackal]

does the rogue passive evasion "damage taken while moving -20%" stack with the falconer tailwind passive "damage taken while moving: -6%" to 26%?
of are they calculated seperatley as 20% and 6%?

[surreal verge]

Seperately

[grizzled swift]

Hi people is anyone here who can open and run Sanctum with me i need 4?

[surreal verge]

#👥┃lfg

[vocal plank]

Judgement is the melee, the consecrated ground is the spell right? Or is it like cast on melee hit where you hit something with melee and it has a secondary effect and that secondary effect is what makes the consecrated ground

[desert tree]

It's kinda both

You "direct use" the melee part

And the spell part is a subskill

[vocal plank]

Alright so it's kinda like CoC or CWDT in PoE but without crit and damage taken

Just you hitting things

So I scale attack speed and spell damage

[desert tree]

It doesn't require a hit to appear

[vocal plank]

So I don't have to hit things for it to trigger, just attack.

[desert tree]

Yep

[vocal plank]

But it is att spd instead of cast right?

[desert tree]

Yup, because you are using a Melee Skill

[vocal plank]

Cool. FIgured as much but wanted to be sure.

[cerulean dew]

Hello im thinking about creating a new char... but i can't really decide... I wanna do 1000+ corruption with a ''fun'' build. Any ideas ?? 🥲

[solemn parrot]

voidknight warpath

[gentle lantern]

what are some multi-hit options for runemaster mage? if I want to stack some armor shred

(on a single target)

[low shadow]

frostclaw

[gentle lantern]

I'd rather avoid the cheesy setups like frostclaw->lightning blast->spark charge and static-orb->500 stacks of brand of deception

maybe I'll frostclaw with cold damage?

[timid owl]

fireball minigun all the way

[sharp bison]

I'm confused. I'm going through the normal low level monoliths and I can already pick corruption now?

Doing Spirits of Fire now

[timid owl]

on non empowered you can go up to 50 only

[sharp bison]

ah thanks I didn't now that was a thing

[crystal jackal]

does the stygian beam mana stacking portion increase the dmg of applied poisons?

[balmy current]

It doesn't say hit damage so probably yes.

[crystal jackal]

is that added to the multipliers on the drain life tree?

[balmy current]

It's more damage so multiplicative

[gentle lantern]

fireball is fun, I'll give it a shot

[timid owl]

you can do the lightning conversion relic as well

[gentle lantern]

I think it's gloves that convert to lightning

thanks dude

[balmy current]

It is.

[timid owl]

this is the build im running, donno what different uniques I should look for

asked in rogue chat and got ghosted

(I know im overcapped at some things but its hard to find that perfect balance

[crystal jackal]

what are you scaling?

[timid owl]

i want to go full nuke acidflask trap,

so fire pen, fire dmg, phys dmg

crit as well

[crystal jackal]

I've never played acid flask, don't know enough about it to give any useful tips 😦

[timid owl]

I got a general question

is it normal that on about 450 corruption

you get many spawns of orobyss?

[crystal jackal]

you man shade of orobys that increases corruption?

[timid owl]

first time seeing this many

[crystal jackal]

the further away you are from the center, the more likely you are to get them...you can't expande the grid out to infinity

if you're far out from the center at some point you'll start running into those on almost every fork

[crystal jackal]

if you have 1 timeline on e.g. 400 corruption, and then you go to an old timeline that's like at least 40-50 lower in corruption, as soon as you do 1 node you are guaranteed to get a shade

they made this so it's faster to bring up corruption on your lover timelines....so you don't have one on 1k corruption and then have to spend hours starting on 100 again on another timeline

[halcyon kestrel]

"+1 Sigils of Hope" Max is still 3

[desert tree]

Read again

+1 TO Sigils of Hope

Meaning +1 to the skill

[halcyon kestrel]

ohhhh

weird

[prime patio]

Forgot how to advance to epmowered monoliths, you had to beat the last three monolith bosses and then defeat your first harbinger?

[toxic echo]

Yes

[plush bobcat]

How does multiple conversions via "damage taken as" work?
If I wear Orian's Eye and Ravenous Void, does the 15% physical to void get translated to fire from Orian's 100% void to fire conversion?

[toxic echo]

things are only ever converted once

[plush bobcat]

So I would still be taking void damage in that scenario

[toxic echo]

yes

[plush bobcat]

thanks for the answer 👍

[worn fable]

Heirot boss fight, every video i've seen he doesnt dash and leave behind a whirlwind of ice that destroys me with 2.3k life. Am i missing something? 90 one

[toxic echo]

he will always dash towards you, so, just get him turned towards a wall and the storm is no longer an issue.

[worn fable]

Oh, that explains it. Im playing warpath so ill need to stay in front of him

awkward fight on spin build

[toxic echo]

yeah. once you get him on a wall or kinda stuck in the walls, its pretty easy

[onyx forge]

what qualifies as a "hit"? for "on hit" effects?

[toxic echo]

😂

[toxic echo]

anything that hits. melee, spells, bows, throwing. as long as its not a DOT, its a hit

[onyx forge]

i see, thanks

[halcyon kestrel]

I want to make a tanky character that isn't Sentinels. Any recommendations?

[halcyon kestrel]

Ima go Druid

[twin oak]

could you please elaborate?

hey guys do you have problems with summoning exiled mage and nemesis? these just don't trigger anymore. have you encountered this bug??

[storm blaze]

Can't say I have had that happen

[undone brook]

Thank you

[timid owl]

gamers, im split, I want to start a new character, I tried beastmaster before but I dont like it at all, I've been thinking of either voidknight or blade dancer, the other characters I played were, runemaster, falconer, forgeguard and a lil bit of necromancer

Which of those 2 is more fun

[outer mango]

[crystal jackal]

I just procced 1 dagger prophecy twice in the same echo and they all dropped with the same bse type.....are you able to targetfarm specific base types with prophecies that Im not aware of?

[toxic echo]

I found a random lizard spawn that, was infact, a mouse wearing a lizard suit

(It was a normal lizard in all aspects except the name)

[toxic echo]

I believe there is specific prophecies for rune daggers. Only dagger like it

[crystal jackal]

I see, didn't way that close attention...I'll try and keep an eye out

you're right, found it... is that the only base you can target farm with prophecies?

[toxic echo]

The only one i know of off the top of my head

Think its just because rune daggers are such a big difference from the other dagger bases, with the spell on it

[sullen verge]

is there a way of target farming different base items

like if i wanted oracle amulets in exalted

[toxic echo]

Nope

[sullen verge]

so sad so so sad

[analog jungle]

can i still get the new features on legacy character?
or i need to create a new cycle character?

[surreal verge]

Yes.

[analog jungle]

what yes it is

[glass iris]

hi , i just have 1 question , at wat corruption t7 drop will be common ?

[surreal verge]

All content exists on legacy.

[storm wren]

@keen bane The main trouble is what should players play before enter monolithes 👀
Do you have any ideas?

Play monolithes from lv.1 to lv.100 will cause monolithes become boring quickly then we even don't want to play monolithes.

(I want to start from lv. 58 directly even 😆)

[thin swan]

Hey guys is anyone having trouble with harbingers since patch? My faction progress has been reset to 0 and i cant summon any harbinger in any timeline

[desert tree]

They fixed a bug about that in the last patch/hotfix

1. Try Verifying your files

2. Try killing the 1st Harbi again (the one you summon by completing your last non empowered monos)

[thin swan]

Ill try. Even though i have quest part 3

[desert tree]

Oh! Do you have enough corruption to summon the next harbi ?

[thin swan]

Yes

Part 3 requires 125 corruption

Im lilling at 180

Killing*

[desert tree]

Uh ... Weird

And you are sure you havent killed that Harbi already ? And the Crest is active ?

[thin swan]

Crest always active and i killed 7 different bosses

I just verified files

Lets see

Faction progress still at 0

Bah

[desert tree]

Well, sorry I cant help you

Make sure to make an ingame bug report

[surreal verge]

Might need to go back to a normal monolith lv90 to retrigger the first kill again.

[thin swan]

Ill try

Thx

[desert tree]

Let us know if it works

[brazen ravine]

I've DCD like 4 times in 2 days - is this a known issue since the latest patch?

[lapis roost]

Hi all ... Is it against the rules if I want to sell something via trade to a friend? For example to put an item 0 gold and tell him that is inside market so he can buy it?

[thin swan]

It worked. I completed a normal mono and harbinger appeared

Lets hope they appear on empwered now

[desert tree]

Nice, what rank are you ?

[thin swan]

Rank 1, but quest is still on part 3

[toxic echo]

its not specifically against the rules, no, but, there is always a chance of it getting sniped by someone. the only true safe way to do this is via resonances and gifting.

[lapis roost]

Ok ty for responding,but yesterday you ban one of my friends for this reason and you told him that he does RMT.. that's why I'm asking because it looks like we can trade with friends

[glacial ermine]

Hello , i am the person who got banned with LE -45 code , because i sold items to my friend dareme for 1 gold , and yes i have sent tickets via support already

[storm blaze]

Eagles is just a discord mod, he doesn't work for EHG and doesn't have the power to ban people in game

[toxic echo]

selling items for 0 gold on the bazaar is fine. selling things for 0 gold inexchange for RMT things is not. if your friend submitted support tickets, then let it go through the proper channels

[lapis roost]

Ok but how can we prove that we are real time friends and there is RMT etc?

[storm blaze]

!support

[ripe brook]

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

[storm blaze]

contact support.

[toxic echo]

wait for support to respond like your friend already said they did

discord is not the place to handle bans or any support related issue

[glacial ermine]

thanks for responding , then i guess i will have to wait an answer to my tickets

[toxic echo]

mad lad enjoyers...need a build idea for it that isnt frost claw

[desert tree]

VK Spellcaster

Hammer Smite Spark Charge

(2 different ideas)

[toxic echo]

lmaooooooo hammer spark charge

i do have a 2lp enigma...

[desert tree]

Hum

Cleaver Might be better though

[faint cape]

Cleaver + enigma, I like where this meme build is going

[toxic echo]

prolly...but i still enjoy the idea

[desert tree]

Also works with Shaman Tornado Spark Charge

[chilly totem]

anyone can help me? so this cycle i play as sorc, frost claw fire. but right now im having hard time at 153c. need anyone input about whats wrong on my build here. appreciate it lastepochtools[dot]com/profile/diazepamkit/character/DIAZEPAMKIT

[halcyon kestrel]

Help. I don't know what I did wrong but I can't move anymore

[toxic echo]

you broke the game. quite literally

bug report, then relog

[halcyon kestrel]

Aight cool

Lost like 10 mins of progress 😦

[chilly rain]

Still up for work?

[eternal coyote]

does 24 spell damage from curses outscale a 60% necrotic res value with twisted waves from the acolyte chthonic skill tree?

[fickle oasis]

How do I use the harbingers needle

[desert tree]

Put it in yours Idol Inventory

[fickle oasis]

Ohh ok ty

[halcyon kestrel]

My map ocacity keeps defaulting

can I prevent this?

[floral mesa]

Hi, would you be able to submit an IGBR regarding this? 🙂

[sharp bison]

Are there any set items worth picking up to sell?

[toxic echo]

maybe vilatria crown. its pretty rare. other than that not really. sets really arent used/seen as usable overall so there isnt much value. and most can be found pretty easily

[sharp bison]

ok thanks I'll keep an eye out. Yeah almost everything I find is being sold for 0 gold by some people

I guess you really need to find very specific items

[low shadow]

the static ring is OP

[fluid cedar]

Is there any less noticable difference between swiping those uninteresting Harbinger's Victims left or right?

[low shadow]

what?

[dense wasp]

🤔

[fluid cedar]

Between Challenge and Abandon a Harbingers Victim

A Nemesis

[dense wasp]

what do you not undesratnd exactly

[low shadow]

i dont understand youre proplem

[fluid cedar]

Is there a practical difference between banishing a Nemesis with unwanted items in comparison to challenging and defeating him. When the items aren't an interest. That is my question.

[toxic echo]

you get shards for beating him

but other than that no

[fluid cedar]

Thank you.

[fickle oasis]

When did this current cycle begin?

the 19th?

[river iron]

Does these bad boys can turn in any uniques even if they are not general drops?

[dense wasp]

they cant do boss uniques

[river iron]

:C

[toxic echo]

The 1.1 refresh started sept 19th, yes

[river iron]

This is very confusing then

[dense wasp]

they shouldve clarify it better

[merry torrent]

when that was originally written I'm not sure if there was any boss unique drops

[toxic echo]

It tells you this above what you wrote on the rune

[merry torrent]

Is that the game guide though? or a tooltip?

[faint cape]

It's only in the game guide, the tooltip just says any unique.

[merry torrent]

yeah, and almost no one reads the game guide. It took me over a month of playing before I even knew there was an in-game guide

[frosty mason]

is Last Epoch Build Planner ever going to finish implementing the dps calculator, cause would love to significantly optimize dps when making wack builds so I can use them through out the game and not need to switch to them towards mid/late game.

[gusty nexus]

anyway to get this?

turned filter on and off

[faint cape]

I think the plan is to eventually finish it, yes. I don't know if it can ever be perfect since there's a lot more going on than just the skill and whatnot.
Any way, you can always use a calculator of your own, like excel.

[faint cape]

Get what? Have you tried Alt+Z? That's the usual thing

[frosty mason]

I dont expect perfect just one that actually works unlike the in game dps calculator, and honestly I could make an excel for it but its pain in the arse to make it

[gusty nexus]

says ground tool tips visible?

[faint cape]

Ah, if opening the filter menu (Shift+F I think) and closing it again doesn't bring it back on screen, then might be a bug

[gusty nexus]

yeah its bugged

[fickle oasis]

Im having a rly hard time finding build guides for necromancer

Anyone have any recommendations where to look?

[lethal bone]

It's interest I find some harbinger belts with this

[pure pond]

But there is none of them drop from harbingers. One of belts has "harbinger" in its name but it is not boss unique on this alone.

[lethal bone]

I see

[pure pond]

Btw it would be nice to rename meteor belt to something like "Starfall" but I'm too lazy to make a post in suggestion

[fickle oasis]

what's the fastest way to level an alt?

[dense wasp]

get to lightless arbour at lvl 16-17, after completing follow the main story till oracle abode, complete quest for sanctum, skip to ch 9 and complete remaining story

then monos with envy to empowered

[pure pond]

Push corruption if your character able to do it. Exp tomes in monoliths is your best friend. Arena is good too but you need sustain because builds that fast comes into OOM state struggle there. If we're talking about post-story leveling.

About story aforementioned ways are good, yeah

[sinful vine]

Is pen on amulets actually good? I feel like it should be incredible, but I rarely if ever see anyone run it in guides. They tend to be T6/7 damage prefixes.

[dense wasp]

if i have to take crit multi or pen ill take crit every day

pen is just too small on amulet, if it was like 20% t7

[surreal verge]

Pen values are damn small in amulets. They're like BiS as sealed affixes tho

[sinful vine]

So for a witchfire dot warlock, damage over time prefixes > pen?

[dense wasp]

yes, cuz dot affects both ailments while pen will only affect one

[tender wind]

When Cycle ends, does it transfer Merchant's Guild Favor over to Legacy?

[pure pond]

T7 pen is better than T7 crit multi if you have 370+ crit multi and if you have no other sources of shred/penetration. Against default enemy with 0% resist you have +15% damage from pen vs at most +15% from crit multi only on critical strikes. If enemy has resistances, pen might be up to 2x multiplier. It is especially good option for necrotic or void damage because sources of penetration or shred for their hit damage are in scarcity. For elemental damage or multi-damage build it is worse tho

[dense wasp]

crit nowadays also scales some stats from the tree or skills

while pen do literally nothing

[surreal verge]

In the context of their build, pen is kinda ass since it's half effetiveness. (Witchfire is both fire and necrotic)

And if they use torment each crit multi amount is that much extra % more

[pure pond]

I didn't say that it is useful in his build btw👍

[lofty terrace]

Question on most efficient means of crit protection? Do i do it via gear as rolls, or is it more item effective via totems?

Idols

The challenge with iolds is their size if you want crit protection

Also, might be a silly question but, is there value in fighting harbingers when corruption climbing, or just kill the boss?

I know harbingers drop needels, but outside of that

[pure pond]

Crit protection doesn't come from idols except primalist. Better to use reduced% crit taken because it comes with +armor and does not need to be capped (like 70-80% is enough usually). Reign of dragon blessing it is cheap way to get 100% crit avoidance until you get something better (if you need).

Harbs drop some good items and eyes to aberroth that drops really good items. 2 envy glyphs from them are also useful for a fast boss rush. If you didn't complete progress of FK faction better to kill harbinger and unlock aberroth.

[desert tree]

Favor doesn't transfer
Make sure you spend it

[novel lotus]

I cannot change anything with cosmetics, has anyone experienced the same?

[desert tree]

But next cycle is in 2025 so you have plenty of time

[lofty terrace]

Cheers

[lofty terrace]

Yeah, it hit me after, citadel boots with a strong reduced bonus bonus damage roll is more or less crit avoidance in one item

[desert tree]

If you are using the Spriggan Companion, she can give you 70% crit avoid

[lofty terrace]

I'm not

[pure pond]

These boots alone don't provide enough defence from crit tho. You need at least one t5-t7 suffix somewhere else.

[lofty terrace]

Yeah

[pure pond]

(it may come from these boots btw but as explicit mod)

[still quest]

Does Red Ring's 10% damage reduction show under the defense tab as "Less Damage Taken"? I have 185 total artibutes but it doesnt seem that my red ring is changing that stat on the character sheet so Im not sure if the ring is working

[pure pond]

No

[desert tree]

Doesn't show because it's conditional

[still quest]

Gotcha okay, so Im just gonna go by my total atributes meeting the 180 for that 10% reduction and assume its active then

Thanks for the info!

[desert tree]

It is

[pure pond]

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

[lofty terrace]

YEah, i was going to check if i could get Those boots+reduced bonus item

[sharp bison]

If I pick a blessing "+75% increased bow droprate" does that mean extra bows will drop, or will my droprate just increase compared to the same pool of the other items?

[lofty terrace]

It'll make bows 75% more likely to drop

[sharp bison]

I mean as bonus loot? Or does it indirectly lower the chances of other items?

[surreal verge]

Extra

[sharp bison]

ok ty

[acoustic thicket]

Hay. It's new season. Can you recommend what to do? Prophecy or Bazaar aka Merchants?

[toxic echo]

With the player count pretty low, cof is prolly better.

But you can still fully kit out a toon on mg

[pure pond]

It depends on your playstyle and build. Trade allows to start easier and come to good point faster but high-end drops are better in CoF

[dense wasp]

After 19th it's better to play CoF since majority of people will just drop the cycle once the event will ran off

[acoustic thicket]

Okay guys, I just wanna make a character that is enjoyable to play. So it's end season, I think that I will go for MG.

[spice vine]

Always be the smartest choice to join mg

[acoustic thicket]

Will roll Pally. Let's see how it goes.

Thanks for help.

[halcyon kestrel]

Does regular critical strike chance even exist?

Everything I see is % mult

[desert tree]

Well yes

Flat Crit (+X% Crit Chance) can be found in different place for different stuff

[halcyon kestrel]

Must be super rare

[desert tree]

Like this is Flat Melee Crit

Its quite common

This is Flat Crit for Spell

[halcyon kestrel]

so it needs to have a + at the start?

[desert tree]

Some skills have some inside their skills tree

[desert tree]

Yes

[halcyon kestrel]

cause I have tonnes of copper rings and stuff like this

[desert tree]

"+" Means Added

[halcyon kestrel]

wish the game just said crit chance multiplier

[desert tree]

This ring gives 66% INCREASED Crit Chance

Increased is a Multiplier

[halcyon kestrel]

yea

[surreal verge]

YOu'll notice the wording for Gladius and Branded Skull lack the word "Increased"

It follows the "Increased, Added, More" rule for LE.

[supple raptor]

WHERE do i check these rules?

[surreal verge]

The in-game game guide, or read it here:
https://www.lastepochtools.com/guide/section/increased_added_and_more

[storm wren]

Have you played cursed wraithlord necromancer in 1.0?

[halcyon kestrel]

I really have no idea how to sort my idols

Should I literally just keep all of them if I have the stash tabs

[storm blaze]

Eh I wouldn't keep them all
A lot of them aren't that useful

[dense roost]

Any way to check how many hours played on a specific character like typing “/played” in poe?

[toxic echo]

nope

[hushed garnet]

Quick one if I may travelers : can the nemesis egg outcome be influenced in any way like for instance higher corruption etc or does it not matter at all? Like is there any reason to hold off on incubating the red ring i just spent my life savings on or just throw it in the first egg I see and hope for the best?

[acoustic thicket]

I have played Acolyte.

Does you remember me? Was Wraithlord.

[toxic echo]

you cant influence it at all

only the initial spread of loot is influenced by any way

[hushed garnet]

Thank you mate

[storm wren]

ohhhhhh that's you yeah! Check out DM history :)
Nice to meet you again!

[acoustic thicket]

Same.

[storm wren]

Maybe we should add friends to avoid the left happen again

I played necromancer in d4 when you're disappeared, then I see why you'll select this build

🫡 Learning poe now

[dense wasp]

The d4 necromancer is very bedge

No movement skill makes this class from 8/10 to like 2/10 for me

[storm wren]

#📚┃off-topic message
⬆️ that's why I don't like this character

[acoustic thicket]

This is what I play, I turned my back at every other game cuz of many reasons...

[storm wren]

But I'd like to play witch in poe because the skill you're casting is determined by gems you owns. Like it so much!

triple d2r icons 🤭 I even don't know which game is it

oh...ohhhhh d2. ohhhh no offense! ohhh...Alright sorry I just not the player who likes d2 because I never play it in my childhood

[cosmic stone]

any body knows a good site where i can find updated loot filters?

[hidden trellis]

Maxroll is pretty good for build-specific filters!

[acoustic thicket]

The updates for new cycle are also implemented in legacy, or must I stick to new cycle?

[storm blaze]

Currently there's no content difference between cycle &legacy
apart from cycle getting fresh economy + fresh start

[acoustic thicket]

That was quick and insightful, thanks.

[storm blaze]

Even the current event is available in Legacy
But yeah, like until 1.4 (or what the current content plan is which is gonna be updated) there's no planned differences between cycle & legacy

[fading hound]

a lot of content creators also add filters in their videos if you're looking them up, but maxroll builds tend to be very solid, very detailed and also have filters

[storm wren]

Thanks for EHG treat me as the same. On cycle and legacy. Otherwise I'll miss a lot especially as a newbie

[crystal jackal]

it's a byproduct of them launching the game without many features...
so everything they are adding now they already know will stay ingame permanently

so it's a temporary thing

[dense jay]

Most efficient way to farm weaver's will unique?

[crystal jackal]

MG or CoF?

[dense jay]

COF

[crystal jackal]

there's a WW prophecy, but in general just getting unique prophecies for that slot

what item are you looking for?

[dense jay]

I guess the normal way, > 18 weaver is not easy to drop

codex of sentinel

[toxic echo]

nah, the drop rate gets pretty low once you get near 20. just gotta drop a lot and pray to rng

[crystal jackal]

yeah, you'r basically looking for a 3LP unique equivalent

[storm wren]

I'm not sure the latest message in #🔴┃livestream-shoutout is a spam or not. Playing call of duty

[dense roost]

what level do y'all recommend to do T1 sanctum for skip in HC?

[hasty scaffold]

is it just me, or has anyone else not been able to get any phantom grip ring drops? i've been playing nonstop and using all faction points for ring drops. NOT ONE PHANTOM GRIP since september.

playing legacy btw

[toxic echo]

ive had a few since the reset

[outer mango]

I got 5 and im not cof

[acoustic thicket]

Should I decrease my 612 Corruption? At this moment I just farm blessings that are either > 99 or 100 percent rolled.

[desert tree]

Why do you want to reduce it ?

Too slow to farm your blessing ?

[acoustic thicket]

Yea, also idk if my build is up to date for 600 and beyond.

Obviously I can bite thru it, but feels weird, I just wanna blessings.

[storm blaze]

does corruption even matter for the % of blessing? 🤔
Like sure, at 200c you get the 5th
but beyond that?

[hasty tartan]

I had a 2LP one some days ago at mabye 150-200 corr?

I'm MG

[acoustic thicket]

I play wraith lord, so re-farming the corruption wont take that long. Just wanna see what I can learn more about endgame this season, cuz I was afk for month's.

[toxic echo]

the rolls are just rng. so if farming blessings, lower so its fast would be fine

[acoustic thicket]

Okay.

[sharp haven]

Can someone explain now crackling assault works on a druid. its states 1 lightning strike per second of "rampaging". But how do i get "rampaging"

[desert tree]

You press Rampage (the dash/run)

While you use Rampage you are Rampaging

[toxic echo]

the werebear dash

[sharp haven]

oh i see. silly me i thought its was some sort of allighment xD

thx

[candid river]

There goes all my luck. How is this possible?

[dense roost]

hell yeah

[fallow kiln]

which one is better this cycle, CoF or MG? Thanks.

[outer mango]

one you like more

[fallow kiln]

ayt, i think i'll just choose CoF. Thanks

[rancid heath]

guys if i kill gaze of orobyss, does it reset my map?

[shy jolt]

Someone here who play Shatter Strike and is pretty far in corruption?

[faint cape]

If you kill the Shade of Orobyss, yes

[supple raptor]

Well, its a melee build
U will hardly past 500-600 corruption

[supple raptor]

Photoshop?! rsrs

[solid path]

Nice.
Opened a chest and now im stuck lol, can't use evade, lunge or shield rush.

[acoustic thicket]

Is there any way to ensure temporal sanctum items in a way so my chance to get +13 intelligence is more likely to happen?

I got only one wraith lord helmet that has one LP at this moment.

[toxic echo]

there is no way to influence temporal slams

[acoustic thicket]

So it's the 25% thing as it was always.

Some people said there is a way to ''lock'' tier abilities, so it bricks less, or am I mistaken?

[toxic echo]

not during the slam itself

you can seal affixes you dont want. but you still need 4 when you actually do the slam

but you can make the miss a little less bad sometimes

[acoustic thicket]

Okay, I will google that. How to > seal.

[spring forge]

Can a gambled item have a sealed affix or a tier 6/7?

[faint cape]

Not from the gambler in town. The one in Soulfire Bastion can (it can only get sealed affixes from doorway modifiers if you pick one that does it).

[spring forge]

Gambler in town could have 4 tier 5s though?

[faint cape]

Yeah should be able to, though even T5s should be pretty rare since it generates items similar to a level 40 drop at most

[spring forge]

When you hover over item from gambling vendor it says Low Forging Potential. Does that mean when revealed the FP will be lower than if item was found or lowest possible FP for that item if found?

[faint cape]

Lower than you'd normally find on average

[hearty spindle]

i might be wrong but didn't the game used to say something like "cast manually/directly" when a proc'ed skill wouldn't work, now i'm not sure how to understand the wording and whether a proc would count.
any rule to go by for those things?

[hasty scaffold]

damn, got 60% dmg reduction through armor + more through passives, and 4khp and still get 1shot by abberoth

[toxic echo]

Yeah. The big slam, and the mount beam you really cant stand in at all

[supple ruin]

Question regarding Forgotten Knights rank 2 reward "stability gain chance", 10% chance to gain twice the stability when completing an echo. My partner and I have learned it's only on base stability and that's fine but here's the question. Even though it's only 10% he sees in his chat the message he recieved double stability. I have yet to see the message....I even have public turned off to be sure I'm not missing it and have yet to see it. Is there something else I maybe have turned off to not see it? I do see messages for like weavers gain and such but am confused why I never see the stability gain and he does.

[split wren]

how do you see your blessings?

[dense jay]

Inventory. Top right blessing tab

[split wren]

ahhh i see thanks

i was looking for it in the maps lol

[vale slate]

anyone else find a loot lizard with a name? I found one named Toothful with Property of the storm navigators under the health bar.

[storm blaze]

Yeah, seen plenty with names

[remote eagle]

how to farm temporal keys faster? any tricks?

[pure pond]

Find echo with good layout and reset it until having an echo full of rares, then full clear it. Rare mobs drop keys sometimes. It is not guaranteed to have TS keys specifically so you'll get LA and SB keys too.

[dense jay]

Mono bosses usually drop at least 1 key. You can do temporal key prophecies too if you are COF

[remote eagle]

im in MG but alright noted ty ty

[surreal verge]

You cast normally means direct cast.

[sturdy flame]

It should spawn in the middle of the screen, message I mean

[verbal swan]

Heya folks. Just want to double check that I'm understanding how base damage conversion works.

If I am using Warpath with the Apocalypse Whirl node and my weapon is Sierpin's Fractal Tree, the damage that Apocalypse Whirl converts to Void is going to be the flat physical damage from tree/nodes on Warpath itself, and the adaptive '+80 Melee Damage' implicit on Sierpin's.

The '+(60 to 84) Physical Melee Damage' on Sierpin's will not be void converted since that isn't 'base damage' but instead added damage, right?

[surreal verge]

Correct.

[pure pond]

Btw added damage also may be adaptive like on Sword Catcher. It is not converted just because it has specified damage type, not because it specified in implicit or explicit

[storm wren]

@outer mango I mean this page. I own account yeah, but I want to know how are they created the own profile on Nexus

[outer mango]

cant help with that, im not really nexus user

sorry

[storm wren]

No worries, I find it

😂 This part is relevant to Foton's career I believe

The design part is interesting to play

[abstract hill]

whats the best arpg? LE PoE D3 D4 ?

[storm wren]

No the best arpg, only which weakness you can accept

[abstract hill]

but ur an arpg noob

[storm wren]

Ok, I'm not a noob now :)

[desert tree]

I like LE the most, but rn I am not sure I would recommend it

[storm wren]

Watch video reviews about why are they recommand that game then decide by yourself is a good way

[abstract hill]

why not

[desert tree]

I like the mechanics, the gameplay, the character fantasy and progression. But there are a lot of bugs. I am willing to endure them and work through them. But that is not the case for everyone. Also everytime there is a new patch you flip a coin. Head is fine. Tail, the game is broken in multiple different ways.

[shy jolt]

is it possible to see enemy levels?

[outer mango]

Its same as area lvl

[rancid heath]

Thoughts about this? for a falconer ballista ;D

[glass iris]

is it me or the game is lagging ?

[dense wasp]

It's like every belt you find in every echo run, nothing good about it

[rancid heath]

T7 minion dmg and t5 mana gained wdym nothing good about it

[dense wasp]

The only good stat here is minion damage

Base bad

Res bad

cdr low

[glass iris]

hi i have a quick question ,

[outer mango]

where is that question?

[glass iris]

should i get endurance threshold as warlock ?

from blessing

[surreal verge]

Probably not?

[faint cape]

Only if there's absolutely nothing better to get

like armor is better

[glass iris]

all i have now is , frostbite 100% , chill on hit 48% , Block chance 8% +213 block effectiveness . +63 cold resistance +144 endurance

[faint cape]

Seems likely none of those affects your build much, I'd grab chill chance unless you already have some source of chill

[glass iris]

i was thinking abt it too

thanks for confirming 🙂

[candid gate]

hello, what is correct ? max Ballistae 1 on every Tier or at T6 or T7 Max 2 ? If so, why is this incorrect on lastepochtools ?

[surreal verge]

LETools is normally datamined info, a good chance it's more correct comapred to maxroll

Oh, tunklabs also shows +2 at T6, might be LEtools being wrong

@bronze ocean Sorry for the ping, but check convo above.

[main pewter]

short answer: it says +2 on LEtools aswell. Scroll down below the table in your screenshot, and you'll find another table.

[candid gate]

after clicking on the Infobox...it is on the next site, max Ballistae only. there is a second table, for body armour T6 and T7 Max 2. Thx for your help!!

[main pewter]

long answer

one affix can have different values on different items, for example Strength is 1-16 on a helmet, but 2-24 on body armor

• when you open the build planner, select a body armor and select affixes, you'll see +2-24 Strength right away
• but on the affix page LEtools has to show both 1-16 and 2-24, so it shows default values first and then it shows values adjusted for each gear piece
  So that's why it says +1 ballista on the first table, and +2 below that.

[prime patio]

It is not possible to use tab priority to set 2 rules at the same time? I wanted to make a tab to collect all uniques that do not have LP or Weaver and then 2 others that will collect items with LP and Weaver respectively

But I guess that does not work, right?

[faint cape]

It does, but you will need either the LP or WW tab before (somewhere to the left) your non-LP/WW tab since you can't (currently) set both max WW and max LP, and that one will be able to overflow into the non-LP/WW tab.
Personally, I set my non-LP/WW tab to max 0 LP because the WW tab is much less prone to overflowing, ymmv.

[glass iris]

The monster is so pain

🤦

[storm blaze]

Which monster?

[faint cape]

Maybe a very large baguette

[desert tree]

https://tenor.com/view/baguette-baugette-gif-19324932

[faint cape]

I forgot there's no red lizard lol

[glass iris]

Fire lizard dk name , transfusion casset , most of the ox osprix , convenient of dominance , skeleton archer

Too many monster and tranfusion casset blood bomb cant see

I feel the monster is too much dmg

Is the game forcing me to play a build to kill enemy far far ? 😂😂

[surreal verge]

If you're not in empowered monoliths yet, you might have a defense problem.

[glass iris]

400 corruptions

[surreal verge]

Oh, that might be the limit of your build.

[glass iris]

Fps drop making it harder to see monster skill

[vital stratus]

Hi! I want to start a Falconer as my 2nd character. I found some gear, even with LP, on my first. What Falconer build would you recommend? And what is a good way to level?

[crystal jackal]

I'm playing shadow dagger falconer and it's super chill..used the maxroll falconer lvling guide to lvl

[vital stratus]

Ty! Do you maybe have a link to a guide for this build or is this also on maxroll?

[fickle oasis]

does critical strike chance+ affect spells as well?

or do i exclusively have to get the +spell crit strike chance mod

[desert tree]

Crit Chance affects spells too

Spell Crit affects only Spells but has higher rolls

[crystal jackal]

Also on MR

[quaint jay]

is there news on whats happening afte rthis cycle ends in a couple weeks?

[toxic echo]

the event ends on the 20th. the cycle ends in q1 2025

[quaint jay]

ooooh ok

tyty

[toxic echo]

outside of the event ending, and the xp boosts going back to normal, no nothing is known

[storm blaze]

I'll be happy with the boosted skellies leaving

[toxic echo]

you and a lot of people i think.

having them be stronger than the echo bosses seems a weird balance choice

but i did like the ideas behind them

[deep briar]

if there are no seasons 3-4 in a row of updates released every quarter, it is not worth returning to the game
in my opinion, update 1.3 will only be released in September 2025. ensuring that the update will be released regularly after update 1.2 is not sufficient. since version 1.0 the game has problems with updates and it was repeatedly assured that from the next one they will be released regularly, somehow version 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2 were released ~6 months of waiting for updates. If the game does not have more than twice the cycle content than Poe, the game will be developed for several years. I can compare the development with the game Grim Dawn. last epoch, even when update 1.2 comes out, most players will not come back because of the long waiting time
I doubt that there would be over 175k active players during the premiere of 1.2
As a hack and slash and mmo game player, I can say this
You will rebuild reputation and players only in Q4 2026, then it is possible that old veterans will come back to play and new players will arrive. Old veterans won't come back if the game continues to develop at the current rate. they will wait a few seasons to make sure the game is being developed at the right pace

[outer mango]

it was fun couple days and until i made a build that struggled alot with them

[storm blaze]

First off
It wasn't "6 months" but 4 and half
You should also read #news instead of stating that 1.3 is gonna be september 25 🙄

[deep briar]

I doubt they will meet the deadline, even if it happens in September, they will not rebuild their reputation and players quickly

[storm blaze]

Sure
Whatever you say.
Next cycle will apparently last 8-6 months
Yup

[deep briar]

In my opinion it will be postponed to January

[toxic echo]

idk why you even responded in the first place nub. you know better

[storm blaze]

I do, just getting ready for bed and thought it would be entertaining

[surreal verge]

Idk, they yapped about stupid item ideas, it can't get worse.

[stiff crystal]

Hello guys, all the fixes happening in the current cycle, are those happening in the legacy version too or all the builds from the last season is applicable to legacy?

[surreal verge]

Everything that happens in cycle, also happens in legacy

[mental copper]

my friends and I are getting a lot of "connection lost" today, is it happening to anyone else?

[dense glacier]

Good evening everyone,
I just beat Abberoth with my character, for the first time. However, the items dropped during the fight are on the ground but do not appear, even without filters. I am disgusted, has this already happened to anyone else? Is this a recurring bug?
(Sorry for my level of English, it is not my mother tongue)
[Bonsoir à tous,
Je viens juste de battre Abberoth avec mon personnage, pour la première fois. Or, les items droppés lors du combat sont au sol mais ne s'affichent pas, même sans fitres, je ne vois que les rayons supposément censés représenter l'item... Je suis écoeurée, dégoutée, cela est il déjà arrivé à quelqu'un d'autre ? Est ce un bug reccurent ?]

[desert tree]

Try Alt+Z/Shift+Z/Ctrl+Z

If it doesnt work then its bugged

It happens often enough

[dense glacier]

Oh thanks that was it, it was when I tried to activate the Nvidia Experience... which requires doing Atl + Z...

[fringe birch]

this one has annoyed me for a very long time, it's a common and completely unnecessary problem:
#suggestions-and-like-to-see message

[quasi pagoda]

is there anything else in the game that taunts as well as Arboreal Circuit?

[wary quartz]

Guys, there's a belt i am trying to farm, it needs an experimental affix, as far as i know its only possible to get it from the exiled mages, are there any other ways to get it? Currently in COF, i know i can directly buy it if i was in MG.

[faint cape]

Decoy is pretty much the same skill (on rogue)

Primalist has some taunt things as well

[faint cape]

The mage does drop some special runes, using those has a chance (higher on higher tier experimentals) to drop a glyph that can craft potentially up to a T5 experimental affix.

[wary quartz]

Just researched about it on wiki and yea that makes it a lot easier to get i guess, thanks !

[hot tide]

Can you please tell me why so many DLC's on this game?

what they give you ingame

?!?

[faint cape]

It's all cosmetics, most of them are different tiers of the two or so bundles available right now

[hot tide]

So base game all i need if i dont care cosmetics right? Its not like POE you need money for extra bags or something?

[faint cape]

Correct, base game includes all content, there's nothing except cosmetic stuff for real money sale

[hot tide]

tks mate

[eternal coyote]

they are supporter packs. if you have played PoE they should be familiar. they are purely cosmetic and are there to support the dev of the game

[undone mortar]

Hi, when did this season start? Is it good time to start from 0?

[tranquil flicker]

You can find the current Cycle start date and details on the current event listed here: #news message

[eternal coyote]

what does this mean? should it not be the case that cycle and legacy are parted?

[tranquil flicker]

This happens when the inviter and the invited are characters from diferent cycles (ex Legacy / Cycle)

[eternal coyote]

so legacy and cycle are not parted for chats? i thought they stand seperate

how does that work? 🤣 range 42-52 but number is 53

[oblique bloom]

is anyone else experincing connection l;ost?

NVM...i'll just uninstall the game

Going back to D4

[cold plaza]

Known bug

[oblique bloom]

People respnds to a buggy item, but can't respond to a connection bug?.....wow!!

[hot tide]

Necromancer a good class for beginner?

[toxic echo]

Yea

[hot tide]

tks

[tiny helm]

Anyone know if minion health regen node is bugged in necromancer passive tree? My bone golems are not regening hp at all despite full investment in a lot of hp regen stuff, not sure why

[hasty scaffold]

wow now that i think about it, coral aegis is OP AF

with forged weapons, you can easily get 100 stacks of shock = 100% block

[faint cape]

Shock caps at 10 stacks

also they don't take shield stats

(the shield is very good for storm totem, though)

[hasty scaffold]

oh, shock is capped at 10? damn 😦

[tiny helm]

Whats the difference between More damage and increased damage?

[desert tree]

All sources of Increase Dmg are additive together.More Dmg is multiplicative.
If you have 2x100% Inc Dmg you get 200%Inc Dmg
If you have 2x100% More Dmg you get 400% More Dmg

For more info I suggest you read the game. Guide

You can also find it in game (press G)

[dense roost]

is prophecy loot world drops or is it based off of the zone you fulfill them in?

also for timeline exclusive rewards, does that only apply for the Echo Reward or does it affect all drops within that monolith?

[velvet sequoia]

Wondering about something, what exactly happens to your character after the cycle ends? My understanding is it just transfer into a legacy character, but pretty much nothing else changes. But suppose you already have a runemaster as a legacy character from cycle 1. At cycle 2 you create another runemaster. At the end of the cycle, it would be transferred to legacy, and you'd essentially have 2 different runemaster characters?

[dense roost]

Correct

[native sail]

World drops. No boss items.
Second question is sorta neither. Timelines have different exclusive nodes to them that specifically say "unique or set [item type]".

[dense roost]

I see. Regarding the second question, does the smaller loot pool only affect those end-of-echo rewards of "unique or set X item" or does it also determine what can drop within the monolith while I'm mapping?

[native sail]

Just end of echo rewards

[dense roost]

Ah, gotcha. Was kinda hoping I could target farm a bit harder by simply just killing things and having them drop within the monolith itself

[native sail]

if you're COF just target prophecies for that item type, it'll happen eventually.

[dense roost]

yeah that's what I'm hoping for

trying to farm a Valdyr's Chalice for HCSSF rn

running Last Ruin for the unique amulet echo rewards

and double dipping with prophecies at the same time

[native sail]

That one shouldn't be TOO hard, I got one on like day 3 of 1.0 via prophecies, but I also went unreasonably hard into it.

[dense roost]

yeah it's a rare item but definitely not like a chase item lol

hoping to get it soon so I can blast through empowered monoliths sooner with more of a safety net

[native sail]

Indeed. Just make sure you're in areas over its level requirement for best odds.

(Reason being, prophecies seemingly don't respect that rule, but random drops still do, obviously)

[dense roost]

yeah I mean I'm running empowered monos so lv 100 zone

[storm blaze]

Correct

[velvet sequoia]

Oh, missed that. I see noted, thanks. Thought it may have merged or something. Idk which I'd prefer.
