@cloud summit #👑┃item-showcase message
Which build will use this staff?

[cloud summit]

my build :D

how do I extract a lastepochtools link from the game?

[storm wren]

Just post the link here is fine

[clever echo]

You wanna post your build through last epoch tools?

[cloud summit]

I thought there was a way to export it from the game

[clever echo]

Yeah go into the build planner

Left side it says import

[cloud summit]

But I can share my theoretical never-to-be-reached endgame build

[clever echo]

Type you ign and the name of the character

If you create it through there yeah you just copy the link

If it's a build on a char already you can import that then tweak the stats to be higher

[cloud summit]

Looks worse than it is; the resistances are all maxed

[clever echo]

Down below the stat sheet it should say "actual"

[cloud summit]

I am blind, thank you

currently comfortably clearing ~450 corruption

[clever echo]

Curious as to why you chose that path for lunge? (Besides void conversion)

[storm wren]

Smite is a void skill at the beginning?

Oh it's not. Need that passive node

[cloud summit]

yeah, that one is needed

[void citrus]

does anyone know if Cinder Song is bugged? every time i go to a new area i have to redo 2 skill points for fireball...? in my case fire ball is pure lightning so it shouldn't even have anything to do with extra skill points but other wands don't have that problem

[storm wren]

Send a bug report by pressing F8,EHG will appreciate it

[cedar locust]

This is currently bugged in the main build, but the team is aware!

@void citrus If you can submit an In Game Bug Report by hitting ESC, any extra screenshots or videos you think might be helpful can be uploaded to imgur/gyazo/youtube and you cna copy/paste the links to those into the bug report!

[void citrus]

allright, thank you for the info, i'll try and see if i can submit something usefull

[hollow agate]

Hey if I want to go for a full minion build, and I only want one attack that hopefully synergizes

I wanna have Golem, Skeletons, skeleton mage and wraith

[surreal verge]

No attacks, run dread shade.

[hollow agate]

Don’t have to worry about mana or them dying all that much?

[surreal verge]

If you built it properly, no.
Your attacks won’t do much anyway, other than buffing/debuffing

[hollow agate]

What skill would you suggest I bind to right click then?

[surreal verge]

Probably your skeletons, if they want to melt they’ll melt fast.
I also just noticed you don’t have a traversal skill

[hollow agate]

I have dash but I was considering transplant as my right click with Purgatoey + ivory court

[surreal verge]

Evade realistically won’t save you

No iframes

[hollow agate]

Oh Damn

[hollow agate]

What about this?

[surreal verge]

Sure, but you’re still left with no buff/debuff

[hollow agate]

The skill tree seems to have some

[faint cape]

Dread shade is kinda mandatory for minion builds

[hollow agate]

Ah okay then I’ll do that. Mana regen isn’t that hard to get right?

Which upgrades are really suggested?

[stiff river]

are they going to bring this to console?

[surreal verge]

No concrete plans, but they want to do it

[surreal verge]

Lone watcher mostly

[stiff river]

thanks

[hollow agate]

Does necrotic count as elemental?

[toxic echo]

no

just fire, cold, lightning

[storm wren]

🤭 You never know how much people sneak in le community if something not happen

It's unfair to ask LE to go to the same level of poe in just...less than one year since it's released 🤔 So I think it's not a bad thing to own alt game when I burn out in le

[hollow agate]

I thought the game was released 2019?

[dense tundra]

the beta, yes. full, official launch was this year

[toxic echo]

EA release and actual 1.0 release are different things

[hollow agate]

Oh okay! Thats cool I was curious because I got it the other day and looked up when it was posted

[dense tundra]

considering the game first started off via a Kickstarter fundraiser, it's doing pretty decently

[vague badge]

Some people have the desperate need to only eat the "best" ice cream flavor. I prefer to enjoy new variety and revisit the flavors I have enjoyed before.

"Best" in this context usually means "most popular", hence the fixation of player counts regardless of whether or not player count actually means anything

[vocal plank]

We also cant' compare EHG to GGG and Bliz.
Size of company
Exp on games
Mindsets still being young for how things could work and how broken things will be

Sure I wish we got more leagues but hey. There are other games for the time being

[marsh oasis]

my legacy faction reset to 1, any fix?

[toxic echo]

[marsh oasis]

thanks

[storm wren]

And the logic on gameplay design

🤔 Turn things more simple is harder than turn things more complex

[soft orchid]

is anyone having disconnect issues when trying to load into tomb of morditas

[storm wren]

But I'm curious about a thing is why Torchlight: infinite still can keep some people playing until now if the trend of a season is most of players will move on after 1-2 month

🤔 What thing Xin. Inc keep doing right

[loud anchor]

folks i wanna do a bleed build for my next alt but i cant decide between bleedlock, bleed falcon, or bleed hammerdin. someone pick for me im indecisive

[storm wren]

what's bleedlock?

[faint cape]

Bleed hammers is fun

[loud anchor]

bleed warlock

it's a niche build but it gets the job done and its visually stunning

[storm wren]

oh let me search how to play bleed warlock

[loud anchor]

it's practically identical to torment warlock only difference being cthonic fissure is physical and does bleed

[loud anchor]

https://youtu.be/3ZWdkhzwCh8

theres a link to maxroll vid on bleedlock

[storm wren]

emmmmm I'm not sure I get this build because i don't know what the defence is....

Yeah more health is a good thing but increase health regeneration and endurance is the main defence without ward...But both of them is poor in this build

[loud anchor]

yeah it's not the best build

personally i prefer ward

[storm wren]

Or can I get health from let enemies blood?

[loud anchor]

yes

you heal from leech and rip blood procs

[storm wren]

yeah but no leech in this build

[loud anchor]

cthonic fissure procs chaos bolts and chaos bolts proc rip blood

[loud anchor]

leech comes from chalice

2% physical dot leeched as health

also 20 health gained per stack of bleed

and health gain on kill from taste of blood axe

[storm wren]

oh...So
health gained on kill + armour + reduce bonus damage from crits + physical dot leeched as health is the defence

[loud anchor]

correct

[storm wren]

I feel odd that this build use double layers to defence, ward + health gained on kill

So it mean just depend #❔┃ask-the-community message aren't enough, still need the help of ward

The most complex defence from a build I seen 😅 😂 .... 90% defence you can use in the game are applied to this build then I don't know what's going on

The most expensive item in this build is you must own a omnis with right affix

[loud anchor]

well technically you dont need the slam

its just a bit of health

[storm wren]

I wonder how he balance all resistance under 40% all resistance only and use so many unique items, only poison and physical resistance is capped with the help of gloves

[void citrus]

Hey guys, void knight question, can smite that triggers from other abilities also echo? Or can only directly casted spells echo?

[surreal verge]

Only direct casts

[void citrus]

And what about the node in multistrike stat says your swords can echo and you turn them into smites with the other node?

[loud anchor]

red rings and omnis

and resistance slam on shield

[storm wren]

20% + 20% + 14% + 1%, use fire resistance as the example, not enough to 75% still

[surreal verge]

That’s not a direct cast, so no.

[loud anchor]

and omnis

[surreal verge]

Direct cast: Pressing the skill button

[storm wren]

yeah, 1% fire resistance from Omnis

oh...ohhhhh I forget warlock have extra fire resistance

[loud anchor]

correct

[storm wren]

🤭 so it's not friendly for another players who not own double +20% all resistance red rings / different cases on omnis

[loud anchor]

lol no 😂

very unique heavy

and i've never even seen a red ring drop lol

[void citrus]

Thank you! So follow up question: my smites can’t echo when they are not directly cast, that’s clear. But can my other abilties that echo still trigger smite? Or is there a rule that all your echo stuff can’t trigger like the regular skill?

[storm wren]

yeah then it'll more tricky on resistance balance

[surreal verge]

They are an extention of your casts, so yes they can

[void citrus]

Thank you! So final check: i use multistrike, the extra swords are turned into smite, that smite can’t echo, but if the multistrike echos it wil re-trigger the smites because smite is now part of multistrike?

[storm wren]

🤭 heritage from 1.0 (rank 12 will copy the loots so I own double same red rings), 18% all resistance only

[surreal verge]

Yes

[storm wren]

The new red ring from 1.1 is worse than ones from 1.0 so I'm not farm this ring anymore (the cost is too much)

And to be honest, none of builds I played needs double red rings really because they can't reach 180 total attributes usually

👀 If you want the red ring work in your build the best, you need T7 attribute affix slam on that

[surreal verge]

<@&1082357055484071997>

Hammer this being

[vocal plank]

Personally I love poe complexity

[sonic saddle]

huh?

red ring literally didn't get changed in 1.1 and even if it got changed, LE doesn't do legacy versions of uniques

so any old ones would have changed along with the patch

[storm wren]

Me:
Holy hell...Which damage kills me??????
Spell damage? Ok suppress spell damage, done---Be slain
Physical damage? Ok more armour and reduce physical damage, done---Be slain
Elemental damage? Ok capped elemental resistance and chaos resistance, done---Be slain
Affected by Bleed or corrupted blood? Ok 100% avoid to be bleed and corrupted blood, done---Be slain
...

Enemiesa always have ways to kill me and it's why I'm easy to get tired when I play poe 🙃

Too many possibilities can cause your death but six chances per map only so I must miss this one once I run out all chances...

[vocal plank]

I think that if all these things are an issue for you, you need to research other ways to stay alive because there are many ways to do it.
If you are not interested in having a way to die then... don't play it. But I digress as this isn't the channel for that.
If you choose to play, have fun. If you choose not to play, have fun with what you do choose to play.
glhf gg

[fleet gull]

The second item (not the unique) in the temporal sanctum forge must be exalted, right? So no rare item do the Job?

[storm blaze]

Correct. Exalted, 4 unsealed affixes
any sealed affixes get ignored

[brazen garnet]

Any1 know if the meteor from Harbinger of Stars can trigger other meteors on crit? Sometimes I think that it does, but not sure.
From nowhere, SOOOOOO MANY meteors fall down, that it seems that they were triggered by themselves.

[storm wren]

Check out your crit chance is the right way I guess

[brazen garnet]

I have 100% crit. I want to know if the meteors triggered by the belt can trigger other meteors when they crit.

[toxic echo]

though subskills from meteor might still proc

[faint cape]

Shrapnel from meteors can proc meteors, yeah. Just not the meteor itself.

[icy drift]

They can, even the meteor itself can

I feel like they've said it doesn't anymore or something but i've tested it just a couple days ago and it did

[faint cape]

The meteor didn't last I tested it unless I'm mis-remembering, but there are some skills it can proc aside from the shrapnel (like spark charges and spark nova). Not sure if it got bugged since.

[round gust]

what is the suggested monolith farming build for a season starter? i went Torment warlock and im not doing well

[candid elm]

try getting some more movement speed and do your best to keep moving. it will help a lot until your build is online and you have better gear. torment warlock is still very strong.

for example, cast Chthonic Fissure and then move again

[round gust]

yeah im just running out of mana, i spam spirit plague, then pop one fissure, and move on

by the time i hit 3 casts of fissure im in the negative

[candid elm]

you likely don't need spirit plague for most enemies

and fissure lasts for awhile. try casting just one.

try using spirit plague on bosses or using less casts of it on regular enemies

example, cast fissure towards a group of enemies, run around while it's releasing spirits. if you're killing stuff fast enough, you can just move onto the next pack.

[slate snow]

Can someone quickly break down current state of online vs. offline and cycle vs. legacy? will play CoF, last time i played cycle had no extra/new content

[candid elm]

Online, Offline, Cycle, and Legacy all currently have the same content. It's just Offline does not have the MTX cosmetics.

[candid elm]

The 1.0 version the new stuff was the main game release, Warlock, Falconer, etc. 1.1 version the new stuff was Harbingers of Ruin, Abberoth Pinnacle boss, and Nemesis. Later in 1.1 they also ran a time limited event and the loot lizards from that were also added into the game as regular content.

[candid elm]

here's the update roadmap https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/last-epoch-roadmap/70970
1.2 should be q1 2025, I believe

[round gust]

question: does using a resonance remove potential?

[sonic saddle]

also some of the stuff from 1.3 is being rolled into 1.2

[wicked plover]

isnt this vastly outdated

[candid elm]

oh maybe, i don't see a new one posted in news channel but maybe i missed it

[wicked plover]

the real 1.2 will have more 1.3 content shown in the old roadmap than 1.2 iirc

the contents are still there, but the order is probably not what we are going to get

[faint cape]

No, resonance is just consumed to allow gifting an item to someone that it wasn't already giftable to. It doesn't affect the item mechanically at all.

[faint cape]

Yes, last I saw, Mike said to pretty much totally ignore it. 1.2 sounds like it will largely look like 1.3 on the roadmap.

[wise echo]

quick question

i have a necro that now has 600-700% minion hp boost, 300-400% damage boost on minions and 2,3-2,4K% minion heal

are these types of stats common or did i get.....crazily lucky?

lvl 40* at the moment

[merry torrent]

minion damage/life isn't that uncommon, might want to shuffle some hp to damage though if you can unless you have some sort of scaling off hp

[wise echo]

right now, i never see the hp of my minions even get damaged lol

[merry torrent]

it's not to hard to get t5 stats on your main stats you need with how the crafting system is

[wise echo]

so i am solidly on the way to go into lvl 50 properly geared eh

[merry torrent]

yeah, the main problem with a lot of builds is fitting 75% all res onto builds, and other forms of defense

[wise echo]

well, the only defense i have, is my army as a necro

so i did go severely out of my way to fill in the needs for defense and offense

[merry torrent]

yeah, for some content it will be very hard to avoid all damage, some bosses might give you a really hard time

[wise echo]

my bone fella is taking ALL aggro on

[merry torrent]

as some attacks avoid targeting minions and always go after the player

[wise echo]

ah

well...that is just grand lol

we shall see later

for now, i aim to get to the top level possible

[merry torrent]

yeah, you should be fine for now, but when you start heading towards lagon you really need to start thinking about personal defences

[wise echo]

necro and personal defences

raised eye brow

[merry torrent]

hey, can't do damage if you are dead

[wise echo]

true

i might try to boost my minion offense then

is also a good option

[merry torrent]

luckly a lot of minion stats are prefixes i think, and a lot of defense is suffix, so should be able to fit some defense (at least resesitances which is a requirement)

[wise echo]

that is for another day though

thank you very much for this insight

and i will work on it later

[merry torrent]

no problem, if you have any other questions let me know, happy to help

[wise echo]

well, maybe one question

last one

the dust you use for trading

as a necro, can you get your hands on that if your minions kill?

[merry torrent]

dust for trading?

[wise echo]

golden and obsidian resonance

[merry torrent]

oh resonance when playing with someone, yes minion kills count as your kills

[wise echo]

ok, good to know

for now, imma head to bed then and see when i can work on upgrading more at a later time

[merry torrent]

ok, have a good night

[sonic saddle]

to be specific. minion kills don't steal drops from you. they don't count as your kills in regards to triggered stuff

[grand shoal]

It is very unlikely, but asking doesn't hurt:

Has anyone really good Bee Idols in HC you don't need? I'm willing to trade up to a Red Ring or what ever you need, for a really good rolled one. Tell me what you could need in exchange, that we can share for a golden Resonance.

LF 7 Bee prefix and either minion bleed or minion attack speed suffix

Must be either CoF, or no tag.

[trim estuary]

made a new character. During the Last Refuge quest i got LE-61 error message when he TP's you another place. Now the NPC is gone and I can't progress. Is there an easy fix or do I have to restart?

[grand shoal]

The moment, where it should teleport you from Keepers Camp to the ruined era?

[trim estuary]

I didn't even konw it was to ruined era. You saying that helped. I could find the way point and tp there then, thanks

[warped vortex]

what's happen if we do a legendary item with a exalter sealed affixe please ? ^^

[storm blaze]

sealed affixes are ignored

[warped vortex]

thank you ❤️

[novel lotus]

I'm wondering how the ring ended up in this area

[storm wren]

😮 only 40K favour

[grizzled swift]

is someone here who can give me tp to spirits of fire?

[agile bough]

May I know why the loading is so long if I choose to play online?

[novel lotus]

The 400k roll is almost finished 😆

With those two lenses, 40k isn't enough to roll many times😅

[latent raptor]

how do i get empowered blessings

[sonic saddle]

Kill empowered monolith bosses

[scenic moth]

Question : is it worth playing LE cycle 1.1 while waiting for PoE 2 ?

[tame patrol]

Hello, is there any place I can see the cosmetics available in game? I'm trying to decide if I wanna get the base game and just buy EP for in game cosmetics or if I wanna get the ultimate version

[desert tree]

You should be able to find the videos of the packs on yt

[tame patrol]

No, I mean the in game cosmetics shop

I see what the ultimate and deluxe versions of the game offer

[grizzled swift]

is there any fun build for Spellblade besides Flame Reave and Shatter Strike?

[faint cape]

I'm not sure if there is any good source for that, I can tell you there's not a lot in the in game MTX store yet. You are also totally able to buy the base game and upgrade to deluxe or ultimate later, doesn't cost any extra (gotta scroll down past the full bundles to see the upgrade packs).

[storm wren]

Question: Travern talk is found by them?

I'm jealous their connections on ARPG...They can communicate with leaders of all games in this genre by their influence

With these important people, the view of videos is promised for sure. One of ways to show personal ability on videos

[toxic echo]

Yes its their podcast/stream. They have been long time arpg/poe streamers

[storm wren]

Ok figure it out. First video is post on 2020.03.19 so he must play poe earlier than this time and he keep playing poe over 4 years and made lots of videos about different details 🤔 Make sense. he stacked his influence step by step

[faint cape]

Yes, outside of getting stupidly lucky, that's how it always is, veeeerrryy slow start

it snowballs eventually though

[storm wren]

poe must support lots of youtubers to stack their influence if they're played poe in a early time

The dense level of atlas maps 4 years ago is much more crazy than current version 😅

[novel lotus]

I learned about PoE in 2012 while playing D3, and decided not to try it even though it was free. At first glance, it seemed complicated and its graphic style didn't appeal to me

[storm wren]

Holy god...

2012? I just 12 years old and start to learn how to play a online game is Roco Kingdom, not sure if it's belong to ARPG (Chinese only) but its gameplay teach me a lot and inspired me to play RPG 11 years later

Another game which need me to learn how to play different skill combos and how to use them to build the own squad to pve or pvp

So I still paasionate about any skill combos gameplay even 12 years are passed

🤭 That period is still very poor... I mean what i played daily just games on Qzone and roco kingdom

I know Americans are playing poe or d2/d3 in the same period until this year

Flash games still popular in 2012 and roco kingdom is one of games based on flash so... It's aged memory

[storm wren]

So I guess it's why I attracted by 200+ skill trees in le when I watched their trailer for the first time (The advanced way to review childhood memory and explore more on this area)

[novel lotus]

I played D2, then 剑侠情缘, D3, and playing this Chinese game got me into reading online novels on Qidian LoL

[storm wren]

?! You have played Roco Kingdom too?!

Wait, so you have a QQ account?

I don't touch any 仙侠 type of games in my childhood so I'm not interested on them

[novel lotus]

No, that game was acquired and released in my country

[storm wren]

oh interesting... Do the MTX in Vietnamese roco kingdom use US dollars or Vietnamese dong? I remember I had paid its VIP to get the access of flying all over maps and the exclusive owls so I can heal all of my pets and open my inventory anytime and anywhere 🤭

[novel lotus]

As for online novels, I read them through translation tools. I only know some Chinese through text translation and can't read it at all😁

[storm wren]

No worries, it's as like as I want to read pure English novel 2 years ago

I'm break down because 6-8 new words per page I need to search what are they means

🤭 The weakness of vocabulary is too poor

[novel lotus]

Having gone through it, I've been reading online novels from Qidian for over 8 years

[storm wren]

🤔 起点...Oh I never read online novels so I never hear that website

[novel lotus]

In recent years, they have gradually become worse and more formulaic, perhaps due to strict censorship and lack of creativity

[novel lotus]

It's one of the quite popular sites in the Chinese novel reading community here

@storm wren The number of LE players in my country is really not many. Is it popular in China? I only know that they play a lot of Dota 2

And League of Legends

[storm wren]

Not popular at all.
Chinese are too busy at working for life 🤷‍♀️ Less hoilday they have, work overtime is usually, salary is low, mobile players are much more than pc players, spend money to play games still need time to develop etc

[storm wren]

Oh.... I get why Chinese can read another cultures from different places but native people who speak English hard to learn China.
They don't have conditions to learn Chinese & Chinese means an complicated symbols system 🤔

Alright I guess it's a sensitive question if go deeper

[novel lotus]

A word with too many meanings, and many words with the same pronunciation—just thinking about it gives me a headache😅

[storm wren]

A word with too many meanings

Vice versa in English so I'm have a headache too

Want to accomplish a work, ok. Which word should I use?

Good/excellent/cool/wonderful/elegant/fantastic/not bad/gorgeous....

I'm lost

[novel lotus]

Most of the English I know is from playing games. When communicating, I just use the words they often use. I don't often use other words, even though I understand their meanings. As for slang and local dialects, I'm clueless

[storm wren]

Why warlock is on the character list in 2018 already but it's one of characters release on the official release later?

[desert tree]

Iirc what they wanted to do with Warlock initially was not possible
So they pushed it back

[dense jay]

Vladdd the barbarian must be somewhere in 0.1 but didnt make the list

[lost sonnet]

Hi guys. Do you have problems with storage? the merge button isnt working or its me? 😦

[surreal verge]

The merge button doesn't merge stashes, just crafting materials, gold, and faction ranks.

[acoustic thicket]

4k ultra graphics

my game does not loo half as good as videos i see

[novel lotus]

You need to refund it quickly. This game is very tricky🦎

[acoustic thicket]

not really

just had to change some nvidia settings

this game seems preety simple compared to other arpgs

[cedar locust]

It's always Nvidia 😅 glad you figured it out!

[acoustic thicket]

yeah

[cedar locust]

If you don't mind me asking, what did you have to change?

I can make a note of it in our FAQ to help other players 🙂

[acoustic thicket]

for some reasson my image scaling made my game very blurry and i forgot i had it on

although it should be doing the oppisite

its kind of a me issue

pc a little wonky

[cedar locust]

Ah, good to know though! It might help someone else 😊

[acoustic thicket]

yes

im at a rune door

in council

wont open

nvm im dumb

[cedar locust]

That trips up a few new players, don't worry about it 🙂

[nova wing]

I am just about to focus on my defensive stats as a Bladedancer. Should I focus on HP, armor, resistances or dodge rating first?

[cedar locust]

Rogues are squishy - so HP is always a good call, though armor, resistances and dodge will help with that too.

Are you following a guide or just figuring it our yourself?

[nova wing]

I am mostly figuring things out by myself until I hit a wall

I just reached lvl 40 and I am feeling quite squishy

[acoustic thicket]

I'm playing with 800x600 in game resolution and 1024x768 display resolution with my monitor. It almost looks just like your 4k graphics.

that a pic before

[cedar locust]

You can build up dodge in the Passive and Skill trees, there are also nodes that help you regain HP and Mana on skill use - like Sapping Strikes in the Base Passive tree or Breathing Technique, Shadow Recuperation and Swift Recovery in the Shift skill tree.

Resistances are a good place to start, Idols will help there. Take armor where you can too 🙂

For HP, gear affixes and nodes are going to help!

[nova wing]

Thanks!

[cedar locust]

You can get some targeted advice in #🔪┃rogue if you share your build. You can do that by importing it here - https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/ and then sharing it via the Save / Share button on the left 🙂

[cedar locust]

That is an interesting choice of resolution, performance?

[acoustic thicket]

looks fine now less blurry also disabled sss just cuz im not a big ffan and anitali

res looks bad in ss i am windowed rn so i dont have to tab out

[cedar locust]

Full windowed or Borderless?

[acoustic thicket]

window window

makes it easier cuz i have some things to do every 5 seconds

is there end game ciontent

@cedar locust Ya. I have to lower it to the lowest graphics setting and resolutions or the game will cook my PC and crash my PC from demands on component utility. I have to restart the game a lot or reboot my PC. It's the only game that does this. I'm still playing though. 800x600 gives that D2 LOD flash back.

window it

and click and drag the window

small

game will run 100000x better

i think i get around 100 fps ultra at 4 wodnowed like this i get like 200

I did. I've tried everything. I don't want to harm my PC.

specs?

[storm wren]

Ok glad to know not my issue on not loading your profile

[acoustic thicket]

huh

yk i got grim dawn a few ddays ago

and i got this today

[cedar locust]

Please submit some In Game Bug Reports for this, as that sounds like it's an extreme case! If you have already, can I get your Account name so I can find those?

[acoustic thicket]

i made the connection

[acoustic thicket]

Ok I'll make a submission. I think it's my PC being old. My CPU only has 4 cores and 4 threads. i5 66k but the minimum specs on Steam says I have what I need to play it without worries about my PC health. AMD 580 RX GPU 8GB, socket is 1151 on my mobo. My RAM is 32GB Corsair Vengeance. I think it is my PC. My account name is EternalHonor66.

It runs fine in the beginning but the further I go ingame with adding skills and specs it gets worse with more heat and drain on my PC.

[chilly matrix]

Any update on festive lizard hats

[acoustic thicket]

I have to run through Welryn Outskirts, skipping all monsters so my CPU doesn't crash. It goes up to 100% utility usage and my power supply blows out heat like an electric heater lol.🥵

[cedar locust]

It does sound like your PC is a limiting factor as you're just scraping the Minimum requirements, and running anything along side it will cause more issues.

As you mentioned heat, it's worth checking if your internals could use a clean from dust. You could also use a program like Afterburner to track CPU and VRAM usage, as well as temperatures to see what's going on

[cedar locust]

Not yet 😅

[chilly matrix]

i will patienty wait

[acoustic thicket]

@cedar locust I deep clean my PC every 3 months. I have a cleaning kit and electric duster. LE is the only game I have issues with. Everything else runs fine at low specs. But ya, my PC barely meets minimum requirements. I'll have to get a new PC. 800x600 res will do for now. temps are low at 31c - 50c. It's the cores and the threads that are the issues. Even PS3 has more cores and threads than mu CPU lol. Thank you for the response 👍🏻

Also, it's only certain zones that suck hard on my PC. Welryn Outskirts is by far the worst one. Probably need to uninstall until I get an upgrade.

[cedar locust]

Please submit an In Game Bug Report after you've been to that area. Don't worry about stopping in there to make one as that might push your PC as you'd have to deal with the mobs.

Just running through it a little then TP away would be useful 🙂

[violet matrix]

Hello, i downloaded the game via steam and when i click start game doesnt open what can i do?

[desert tree]

Do you get an error message ?

[violet matrix]

no

i click start but my pc doesnt give a screen

[toxic echo]

LE does take a few minutes to get going sometimes

[violet matrix]

ok i will text if its started or not

its opened thank you so much 🙏

[cedar locust]

Glad you got in!

[coral dagger]

Is dual wielding worth the increased dmg taken?

[storm wren]

@spring zinc you mean reddit posts or le forums?

[surreal verge]

Depends on the setup.

[storm wren]

I suppose it need a hd version. too blurry to check it out until I zoom in the website 175% @bronze ocean
https://www.lastepochtools.com/guide/section/stun

[cedar locust]

I think that might be because the image used for the Game Guide in game is blurry too, lemme go check

Yep, it's the upscaling. In game the text is clear, if small, however once you take that raw image and scale it up, blurriness

[lost sonnet]

Ahhh okey 😄 but i have another problem. I cant buy more stabs in legacy storage, the + doesnt work 😦

Edit: its working 😛 thx anyway

[grand shoal]

Is there even one arpg with a real pvp (scene)?

[finite garden]

hello. anyone encountered fps drops when using smite with fissure? doesn't matter what graphical settings I set, when I press smite my fps gets cut in half :/ And maybe anyone knows a fix for this

[faint cape]

No. I'm still waiting on an arpg to basically copy GW's PvP systems lol.

[faint cape]

I haven't used that combo personally. I know some people here have extensively, but I don't remember them complaining about performance (doesn't mean they didn't have the issue of course).
I just want to be sure, if you haven't already, please report this in game as a bug, it should help EHG improve it.

[finite garden]

I've seen people mentioning this issue before 1.0 when doing some google searches. did not find a fix though

[faint cape]

Oof then yeah, best bet is if someone like @desert tree who used it a lot knows anything

[finite garden]

I tried using (were applicable) performance 'fixes' from other unity games, but sadly no noticeable improvement :( engine swap to not a ****** one when? :D

[faint cape]

They are updating Unity pretty soonish actually, which might help. Almost 0% chance they will change to a different engine though.

[desert tree]

I did play Smite Fissure recently (right before 1.1 I believe) but I had no issues at all, except for the skill being garbage

I seems to be on the very lucky side of the bugs since 0.8.5 where I had a lot of black screen but since then, no performance issues no unexpected closing.

Sorry I can't help you

[finite garden]

lucky you QQ I can play games like satisfactory or d4 on ultra settings with no issues, but LE struggles for me

[desert tree]

I play on ultra high (I believe) with a machine that far from being top end

[grizzled sage]

i dont understand this

[desert tree]

You only need 1 pt in the previous passive to be able to spend points in the one right side

[grizzled sage]

ah

[grizzled sage]

is this the reason why i couldnt spent points on the right side ones then?

all 3 of them have this

[desert tree]

Yes

[grizzled sage]

if i wanna replace fireball with something else is that possible?

[vestal plover]

hi, newb here. im playing mage as first class. how do i attack with my weapon? if i set left click to move + attack, it keeps asking me which spell hotkey i wan tto set it to?

[grizzled sage]

ik ive got a second slot open rn but jr wondering

[grizzled sage]

right click probably

[vestal plover]

oh duh. had right click set to fireball. thank you

your minimap resets, even in town, everytime you log out and re-enter game? asking bc im naturally a 100%'er when it comes to map discovery in ARPG's...

but also dont want to waste my time

[grizzled sage]

can i not wield items in both hands?

trying to use a shield always unequips my weapon

[vestal plover]

maybe the weapon was a 2hander?

[grizzled sage]

ah yes it is

thx

[toxic echo]

Yes the maps reset. Really isnt a reason to leave campaign maps. Just go thru to the next. No real reason to vendor things either.

[vestal plover]

maps reset on offline mode too? just feels odd for solo play

and why no reason to vendor things? do u accumulate so much gold that it becomes unnecessary?

[steep cosmos]

u can use gold and alot of it in a dungeon

[vestal plover]

just died in HC. shouldnt my character be listed under the normal dropdown in menu now? because its not..

i can find the character under "all characters" and "mage" dropdowns of course, but figured hed be listed under "normal" now too

[toxic echo]

Items are worth next to nothing and you get tons later

[grizzled sage]

how do i get to that screen where i can see the quest rewards?

[toxic echo]

Map. Then show quests with shift

[grizzled sage]

thx

[grizzled sage]

does this basically mean that it wont go below lvl 3 if i respec my points?

also if i change the skill im specialising will the minimum specialised level remain?

[faint cape]

Correct

[faint cape]

Minimum (and maximum) skill level is based on your character level, so it's the same for all skills

[grizzled sage]

alright thank you

[vestal plover]

is "chance on hit" for melee attacks only?

[quasi girder]

Hi, I joined this discord cuz I just downloaded the game last night and have been playing for a couple hours and I'm extremely overwhelmed. I have a lot of questions

I don't understand like, anything, that is going on 🥺 I mean I'm killing things but like.... Let's just say, I was thinking this game would be like Diablo 3 but it is NOT. Like. Diablo 3. Lmao

Diablo 3 and like, baldur's gate dark alliance 1 and 2 are basically my main experiences with this sort of game

Looking around online it seems many people came from PoE, a game I have not played... Is that game similar to this or something?

[faint cape]

Everything that is not damage over time or damage reflect is a hit, so "on hit" effects apply to most stuff

[vestal plover]

oh okay so works for spells too?>

[quasi girder]

How do u guys keep track of everything?

[faint cape]

Yes

[vestal plover]

ty

[faint cape]

It does share some similarity to PoE, yeah. D3 is somewhat simple and PoE is somewhat complicated, this game falls somewhere in the middle of those two.

Going in blind and just reading things and picking stuff that goes together will get you pretty far in this game, no need to keep track of everything yet! You can learn the details and whatnot over time

[quasi girder]

How can I ease myself into the right mindset to play this game and mitigate information overload?

[vestal plover]

maybe watch a couple youtube videos for beginners?

or maybe not worry about knowing it all right from the beginning and just follow the in-game tips/tutorials?

[merry torrent]

No real easy way to start a new game without reading some in-game or watching a video. That's true for most games.

[quasi girder]

I chose the primalist cuz he's hot lol

Is he a hard class to play?

[merry torrent]

all classes are pretty easy to play, they have a few different builds each

kind of like in D3

[vestal plover]

i bet youd like it if he was hard wouldnt u

[faint cape]

There is also an in game guide (press G) that can answer some questions whenever you come across something, otherwise people in here will almost always be happy to answer

[quasi girder]

😏

Lmao

[vestal plover]

does every zone/node on the map not have a quick travel waypoint?

[quasi girder]

All of the classes seem very interesting

[vestal plover]

or have i missed some?

nvm... just noticed the nodes that say waypoint locked aka not every node on the map has a waypoint.

[quasi girder]

So like maybe I should just bumble blindly through my first playthrough and click random shit until I win lol

There's no way to move the camera I'm guessing? It kinda is just fixed at the angle that it is? Also, do y'all recommend playing with controller or keyboard and mouse? Or does it not matter?

I'm using controller currently

[merry torrent]

you can play with whatever you are most comfertable playing with, camera is fixed

[quasi girder]

Ok ty

[merry torrent]

just browse the skills, read the description quick, see if you like the sound of it and go

[quasi girder]

I know for sure I like the sound of the shaman

[merry torrent]

pretty simple game if you read the descriptions, anything that's vague or you don't understand feel free to ask

[quasi girder]

I'll prolly go for like a lightning/storm build

[vestal plover]

which class/specialization would you guys say is most fun visually... maybe not strongest/meta or whatever, but just feels good and is fun to play/look at?

[quasi girder]

Does it matter what weapon type I'm using or is it more important to get weapons with traits that benefit my build? Cuz I found a staff and I like the way my guy looks with a scepter and shield as well

[toxic echo]

mages have the most big boom flashy skills

[vestal plover]

i picked mage as my first class for that reason. thinking runemaster. sounds like something most unique from traditional ARPG classes

[toxic echo]

each weapon type has its own set of implicits...example swords have melee dmg, and wands have spell dmg. so you want something that has implicits that benefit your build

[quasi girder]

Oh ok

[toxic echo]

and then like, inside swords are a bunch of different swords with slightly varying implicits and stats

easy place to look and play around with items/implicits/affixes is in a build planner, like on lastepochtools

[quasi girder]

So do enemies have weaknesses in this? I know in D3 for example elemental damage didn't really mean anything besides what kind of explosion dead enemies would explode into lol

[toxic echo]

not really

a handful of mobs have resistances and such, but its not common or particularly powerful

[quasi girder]

Ok that's good to know

I'm not particularly worried about being meta or whatever, I'm just like, wow, overwhelmed lol, but the game seems really cool so far and I want to enjoy it if that makes sense lol

[vestal plover]

@quasi girder here you go https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/getting-started

https://www.reddit.com/r/LastEpoch/ scroll down and on right-hand side theres good list of resources

[quasi girder]

Ty ❤️

[vestal plover]

how long has the current cycle been out?

[toxic echo]

1.1 started july 9th. there was a reset on september 19th. it will end sometime q1 2025

[vestal plover]

and how much longer until the next cycle?

oh okay

is a cycle like a "season" in diablo? having a reset within a cycle seems odd?

or is a cycle just another name for major patch? like new content, etc?

[quasi girder]

Are u also newer to the game? Prolly more experienced than me obviously cuz I literally just started but yeah

[vestal plover]

playing first character ever. currently level 8.

[quasi girder]

Ohh ok

Nice!

[toxic echo]

cycle=season yea.

new cycle = new content patch

the reset happened for a few different reasons. and i dont think it will be the norm going forward

[vestal plover]

i find the dialogues odd. no matter which options i select the conversations the same... and selecting the other options still go to the same endpoint of that convo.

[toxic echo]

yeah.

you arent the only one who was pointed that out

[vestal plover]

it just makes things feel... un-polished

is there no way to inspect other players? i always enjoy that in multiplayer games

[azure holly]

How do you fix passive points missing on transferred legacy characters?

[toxic echo]

not yet in game. it was supposed to come with the town system, but the town system had a pretty bumpy start.

you can look up their toon online tho

[desert tree]

You 'need to do some side quests

EHG revamped some early acts a while back and move some pts to some other quests

[acoustic thicket]

Flushed DNS and did something else to Steam. My PC is running a bit better. 800x600. I can't go any higher. FTW! 🥔

[vestal plover]

whys this in response to my comment? lol

when mobs aggro you... will they follow you until they die or do they reset? my AoE is pretty solid so im curious if i can just gather up the entire map if i wanted to... then mow them down

[toxic echo]

They leash at some point

[vestal plover]

that is definitely not the same person

[vestal plover]

item rarity lowest to highest ... is it gray > blue > yellow > purple?

[toxic echo]

Ya

[west sphinx]

true?

[vestal plover]

i think the answer lies in which came first. PoE has been around much longer than last epoch... but i havent gotten to monoliths in this game yet, so not sure the comparison between atlas and monoliths

[vestal plover]

any good loot filters to start off with?

[icy drift]

Not really, it depends too heavily on your build

There are some filters specifically made for merchants guild but they're more for when a cycle is still fresh and the economy is actually moving

[faint cape]

Yeah, but PoE 2 isn't out yet

[candid elm]

this was a joke about the recent PoE 2 livestream where they showed the endgame had a new layout that looked somewhat similar to Last Epoch's endgame layout - the kind of branching / web like look. example random pictures, first from the PoE 2 livestream and the second from a random Google image search for LE. Like Father Toast mentioned, PoE 2 early access isn't available yet. Some things sounded similar - such as the PoE 2 towers showing more area and the LE beacons showing more area. Other things sounded different.

[candid elm]

If you'd like to look at some guides on making filters, there's some basic general filters on the forums https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/1-1-heavyz-casual-loot-filters-for-all-classes-v4-1/25176. Which also includes some info on making a filter. There's also additional info on making filters on Maxroll https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/resources/loot-filter-guide and the Maxroll build guides have filters for each build on the last page of the build guides. LE Tools also has some filters and a filter making tool https://www.lastepochtools.com/loot-filters/

If you're playing Merchant's Guild, you may want to look into a filter related to that.

[vestal plover]

ok thx for the info sweetgoat!

[vestal plover]

is there a way to compare a ring to both rings youre wearing? or does it always only compare it to your left ring?

[inland ingot]

Hi all, can anyone send me to a guide on how the damage conversion works? I understand the concept, but for whatever reason, I can't feel confident in the wording of skill passives like "Apocalypse Whirl", which states, that "Physical Damage" is converted to Void, because the items that I increase "Physical Damage" also seem to increase the damage of the tooltip, even though the passive says increases to void damage take precedent...

[surreal verge]

It only compares the left, so you gotta swap it.

[inland ingot]

starting a new char, I only had 1 item that gives +7% to void, but 3 others that increased %physical. After removing a %physical, the damage on the skill tooltip decreased...

[surreal verge]

It converts all BASE skill damage into the new type. It does not change flat damage added by other effects.

If you have other stuff that gives the original damage type skill, that damage is still scaled.

EG:
A skill after conversion, has 100 void and 25 physical damage.

% increased void will boost the 100 void damage and % increased physical will boost the 25 physical damage.

[inland ingot]

that helps tremendously. The "Consequently, this damage increases damage to void, instead of damage increases to physical" was very confusing.

[surreal verge]

That's mostly a reminder of "The base damage is now void and is only affected by % increased void." The increases only check and apply after the conversion.

[inland ingot]

so if I have a weapon that adds +11 phys and +11 void melee damage?

would it be +22 void?

[surreal verge]

IF your skill does 10 damage by default, it would be 10+11 void melee and 11 physical melee.

Added flat is NOT base damage.

[inland ingot]

ah, so it doesn't change the "flat" damage got it

[surreal verge]

Base damage is the skill's original damage and by extension any flat that is not tied to a damage type(Adaptive).

[inland ingot]

I wasn't sure if the flat damage type increased the damage that was added to the conversion

[vestal plover]

i dont get it

[inland ingot]

if 100% of physical damage is converted to lightning for example, and you're using a +10 physical melee damage weapon with a +10 lightning melee damage affix, I wasn't sure if it would be a +20 lightning damage weapon

[surreal verge]

Note that all converts only convert base damage, and never added flat damage.

[inland ingot]

I understand. I was just explaining my question to Mullar

[surreal verge]

👍

[inland ingot]

I appreciate your clarification

[old kettle]

Question if you play offline do you still get to play the events in this game?

[surreal verge]

Yes, if any. The reward might just not be usable offline (EG. last event's reward was a free MTX, which MTX isn't usable offline)

[acoustic thicket]

i dont understand build guids having me use items i cant use

[grand shoal]

We would need more info, perhaps a linked planer, to help you on that

[acoustic thicket]

isnt ashes of mortaslity

sentinal only

i have one in my stash for sentinal but the build for warlock says to use it

[grand shoal]

Ashes is not tied to any class

[acoustic thicket]

mine are

allot of my items are

[grand shoal]

Screenshot please

[surreal verge]

There's no class requirement.

[acoustic thicket]

am i on an old version?

[surreal verge]

It was never class tied, is it a legendary?

[acoustic thicket]

i have not been on my pc in like a year

it is legendary

[grand shoal]

There is a Sentinel ring stat?

[surreal verge]

Then it might have a sentinel-only stat, which would cause the class lock./

[acoustic thicket]

oh yeah

i see that

[grand shoal]

Can't remember any... what would that be?

[acoustic thicket]

throw

wtv ig farm for new one

i figured i could use some of my old items

but its been a while so

[faint cape]

None, there is no possible way to class-lock any ring

[faint cape]

You might be interpreting the Merchant's Guild icon as a class icon.

[acoustic thicket]

my frames go 100 to 30 to 60 to 100

they are moving so randomly but remain the same even at ultra

[grand shoal]

Thanks for confirming!

[idle ferry]

what would you tell yourself if you haven't bought the game but just learned about the game recently? 5 thing?

[vestal plover]

is this a rhetorical question?

[idle ferry]

no, just new here and trying to learn

[vestal plover]

i watched some youtube videos on tips for beginners. read reviews on steam. it was on sale so i grabbed it because it looked fun. so far im enjoying it. i just bought it today and have been playing all day pretty much.

[desert tree]

I am not sure what kind of info you are looking for

[idle ferry]

is there anything you wish you knew that would make your have a better learning curve? or better early days?

[desert tree]

Oh !

That would be the dmg calculation even with the game guide I struggled a bit

[vestal plover]

is there a go-to source about that information youd suggest reviewing Vlad?

[desert tree]

1. The in game guide. It got 99.99% of what is in the game describe properly. There is a search fonction. Its amazing.
2. https://www.lastepochtools.com/ has a bunch of different tools and database
3. https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/ same as 2.

[vestal plover]

no time-saving, dumbed down video in mind? lol

[desert tree]

Hum... Maybe Perry the Pig, Dreadful or some of the Maxroll guys have some beginner friendly videos

[desert tree]

#💬┃general message

Aaron Action Rpg on yt has some very good beginner videos too

[stray mountain]

hi
is there any news foe new cycle?

[desert tree]

Q1 2025

[stray mountain]

ok thanks

[chrome geyser]

alguem a fazer a missao do LAGON ?

[desert tree]

English please

[grizzled sage]

if i wanna play offline do i just have to start from the begninning with a new character?

is there no way to create a copy of an online character or smth

or does this game have save file editing or whatever its called

[storm wren]

yeah, online characters doesn't sync in offline mode

[grizzled sage]

damn that sucks

[grizzled sage]

what are the main stuff people play online for?

like if i decide to make an offline character and just play offline what will i miss?

[toxic echo]

merchant guild, leaderboards, playing with friends

[grizzled sage]

is merchant guilde just trading basically?

[toxic echo]

yeah

[grizzled sage]

hm

[toxic echo]

oh and mtx

[grizzled sage]

ive only got like 2 hours ima js start again but offline i reckon

will you also lose circle of fortune if you're offline?

[toxic echo]

no

you can technically go MG offline...there is just no one to trade with, so its useless

cof is made to be solo, so, there is no drop off for it offline

[grizzled sage]

i see thx

[strange coyote]

Heya quick question. I stopped playing LE a month or 2 before 1.1 and decided to come back and I got a question about the factions.
Is CoF still a shitty choice compared to MG? In 1.0 I went with CoF on 1.0 but I only saw downsides compared to MG

[grand shoal]

Players of both factions claim their is better, player of both factions complain.
I would say alone that shows a certain "balance".

[toxic echo]

Mg is just faster to get to high end gear, because you have so many people playing/farming. but its dependant on player base numbers. right now, there isnt a high player base to really keep Mg stocked, or buy things from you

[strange coyote]

Well a bit biased on my side because I only saw at the time people on MG with billions gold having their build complete while CoF was full on RNG.

[strange coyote]

I see, thanks for your reply

[grand shoal]

CoF is full rng. But you can brute force most rng layers with CoF ^^

[toxic echo]

cof did get some upgrades in 1.1 for sure

[nimble cradle]

Does generic cooldown recovery apply to evade?

[faint cape]

Yes

[nimble cradle]

Thank you

[faint cape]

It will be additive with evade's innate CDRS, so just be aware that will make it seem like it has less effect than normal

[nimble cradle]

That I expected

[grizzled steeple]

hello guys i have a question, why i cant trade with my friend ?

[desert tree]

There are 2 different systems you might be talking about

• Item gifting : you need to be in the same zone as your friend when the item you want to gift drop. If you weren't together you will need a Resonance
• Trading : you need to be part of the Merchand Guild. But Direct Player to Player Trade has been disabled because of a bug abuse

[grizzled steeple]

oh ok thanks you

[acoustic thicket]

Idk man, must be another LE bug. lmao! Carry on fren. Whoops.😆

[cedar locust]

More like a PEBKAC error 😅

[violet matrix]

while i play with my friend when we go to another map game always gives me lost connection and its keep repeating but my friend doesnt get this kind of issue

what can i do

while i try to teleport ny friend always this happens

[toxic echo]

are you making sure they are properly loaded into the map fully? other than that, just bug report it

[violet matrix]

yes but my friend doesnt have any issues like that only me

i reported

[distant wedge]

I'd like to see the actual damage on my gathering storm damage with Lagonian Diplomacy (no melee, just the lightning bolt spell part) upgrade, how do I do that? Currently my staves show massive improvements to damage when weapons with +x melee damage are equipped.

And since I'm already asking, I'd love to see the damage of my crowstorm and storm totem, any way to do that?

[faint cape]

Unfortunately, the answer is hit a dummy or do the calculations yourself. I'd recommend those even if the tooltips were functional for those, just because tooltips can only take certain things into account.

[distant wedge]

The no info in tooltips is bad, but being straight up lied to in a tooltip feels like a thing that should be fixed

in the meanwhile I'll just use the staff that benefits spells rather than look at the number, thanks for help 🙏

[faint cape]

Yeah agreed, worth reporting with the in game bug reporting tool. Seems to be the best way to report stuff.

[grizzled sage]

why do so many runemaster passives mention a direct cast?

what wouldnt be a direct cast

[desert tree]

You clicking your right click or pressing your key

Its in opposition to a procced skill

[grizzled sage]

whats a proceed skill?

[desert tree]

Lets say you use Flame Rush

And you take the node for Flame Rush to cast Static Orb

When you press Flame Rush (Direct Cast) it also use Static Orb (procced)

[grizzled sage]

ah ic ty

[delicate remnant]

Hello, I used to be able to play back in 1.0 but now I'm getting LE 65 errors, both with and without ExitLag on

[grizzled sage]

is it normal to get the application is not responding message when u open the game?

like if i click wait for it to respond it works after a few secs but everytime it still comes up with that

[last mantle]

Everytime i open the game i have to open and close the game 4-5 times before i can actually get a connection to the server.
and then i have to reopen it several times before my characters actually show up. i assumed it was a release issue and it still happens every time i open the game.
i have tried reinstalling and it still happens is there anything else i can try?

[icy drift]

What happens that makes you restart the game? Is it crashing?

[sullen flare]

In the communities opinion what builds are visually stunning/appealing?

[hardy leaf]

anyone that can answer a question for me about the spark charge sorcerer build?

[storm wren]

which question?

[hardy leaf]

is the mastery skill Sorcerer?

the build on maxroll doesn't exactly say

[surreal verge]

Well, it says "Spark Charge Sorcerer"

[hardy leaf]

okay, and?

[surreal verge]

You can also check by checking the passive tree they setup and finding out which one isn't chained.

[storm wren]

meteor is the exclusive skill of sorcerer

[surreal verge]

And now I don't understand your question.
What do you mean "Is the mastery skill sorcerer"?

[hardy leaf]

that is a simple question

[hardy leaf]

thank you, that helped

[surreal verge]

That is not, as the mastery skills of Mage are:
Meteor from Sorcerer.
Shatter Strike from Spellblade.
Runic Invocation from Runemaster.

And as far as I'm aware the Spark Charge build uses none of these.

[somber path]

what's the best way to increase corruption? Is there a 'quick' way to do it?

[storm blaze]

Kill the boss a few times and then kill the shade

[somber path]

so no... gotta build up to 900 stability multiple times then shade, and that gives you 48 corruption?

[storm blaze]

Can also use glyph of... envy? I think it was
to build up the stability faster

Also I think the shade can consume up to 4 eyes now?
so you can kill the boss 4 times before shade

[somber path]

glyph of envy?

oh i see now

[storm blaze]

Also other monoliths will have catch up thingy to help you build up corruption if you have significantly higher in another one

[somber path]

okay so I should probably focus on one and get higher before building up others

[violet matrix]

whenever i try to teleport my friend game disconnects what should i do

[desert tree]

Change your friend
This one is clearly unlucky

[open mist]

from where that balls jump out ?

[desert tree]

That's a Runic Invocation

Can't remember which one

[open mist]

oh im all 3 fire stacks there is different stacks and different spell jumps out ?

[surreal verge]

Yes.

Even different ordered runes make different spells.

[open mist]

mmm

right now im full fire i need to check how to get that dmg balls out

[desert tree]

[indigo wigeon]

when will you add skill effect ?

[desert tree]

If you mean skill mtx it's being developed

No ETA though

[indigo wigeon]

oh i see okey. yeah. i would like to have diffenrt type of minion.

great ❤️

[storm wren]

oh...So this insanely crazy build is existed since 1.0...Well yeah this staff need a big nerf

🤷‍♀️ Cycle of shattered, a sceptre which for runic invocation too and requires higher level and harder to get a 2lp one, defeated by this cheap two-handed staff deeply

[open mist]

i have some wierd build i need upgrade it right now. zero understand what to to

[storm wren]

🤔 I suppose they missed this build and not took enough notification of the potential from this build while they're planning the update for 1.1

Mage still need a series of adjustments

[open mist]

i posted my mage build on mage channel

on fireball it shows like 50k dmg but i want somhting better to cast out

[acoustic thicket]

Do I have a limitation on respeccing? Also when leveling up what should I be focusing on? Cause I've tried out all the classes, I'm trying out rogue now and they feel lackluster right now since its early on but wanted to know how I should go about building my characters

[candid elm]

The only limitation is that you can't change your initial class or chosen mastery. You'd have to make a new character to change those.

You can change your skills at any time. They have a minimum skill level that increases as you level up, up to minimum skill level 10. Skills are very fast to re-level in the end game.

You can change your passive points in town at the brain icon NPC. It just takes the regular in-game gold that you'll have plenty of.

[acoustic thicket]

Which one was mastery exactly?

Unless it means choosing one of these

[toxic echo]

yes those are your mastery classes. w/e one you pick cannot be changed when you get to that point in the story. other than that, can respec pretty much whenever

[acoustic thicket]

Sheeesh, so everything can be respecced except this. Got it.

[candid elm]

Yeah! Feel free and experiment. Early game you may not have much gold, but later you'll have tons and it's no issue to respec passives.

[sullen flare]

Bump

[grizzled sage]

is it normal for elemental nova to give me 3 different runes even if i didnt cast those elements

like if i cast fire then fire then elec novas but still got fire ice elec runes?

[torpid lotus]

do we know when the next season is?

[storm wren]

But that's what elemental nova suppose to work? You press nova three times then you press runic invocation, so your runes are cleared (reset) then the same result when you press elemental nova

🤔 I'm not sure what are you want to ask

[grizzled sage]

yea i mean shouldnt the rune i get match the element of the nova i just cast

like i got an ice rune after casting an electric nova

[toxic echo]

Q1 2025

[torpid lotus]

dang. aight

[toxic echo]

You have the random rune thing in runic innvocation?

[storm wren]

Congratulations, you discovers a new bug... Submit the bug by in-game bug report will help a lot 🙏

[grizzled sage]

dont think so, just these

[toxic echo]

Or immutable order, that gives you set runes

[storm wren]

Respond speed issue I guess

[grizzled sage]

lol

[storm wren]

I don't suggest to play runemaster for the end game because there's a op build (#1210289869725630554 message ) is too overpowered then you'll lose all fun for crafting the own build if you don't want to follow a guide.

Builds for this character isn't balanced.

[candid elm]

play whatever you want to play. it's a game, have fun.

runemaster can be a more button intensive playstyle, so if you don't mind that, you'll hopefully have fun with it!

[grizzled sage]

runemaster is literally the reason im playing this game

[azure frost]

is there a way to skip the story? its so boring playing it more than 1 time

[grizzled sage]

is the stash shared between characters?

[grand shoal]

not really

[grand shoal]

yes

[open marten]

Hi Guys, .. i been playing with my Buddy empowered echoes, but at the end, he did not received the blessing. Do you know why?

[grand shoal]

He most probably did not have the stability for the bossfight.

Both need to have that if both want to roll a blessing

[open marten]

Damn...yeah he missed maybe one/two echoes

Anyways...game should have communicated this better that he IS not eligible for blessing

Thank you

[grizzled sage]

what do i do with this?

[toxic echo]

nothing. its an obsolete feature. and also bugged

[grizzled sage]

ah

[faint cape]

No, it goes in a set order based off the tags of the skill only

[grizzled sage]

ah that makes sense

[edgy sphinx]

Does physical damage increase bleed damage?

[faint cape]

Yeah, stuff like % increased physical damage and % physical penetration helps bleed, since bleed deals physical damage over time

[steel falcon]

Is there a way to only see your own damage numbers when in a multiplayer game?

[faint cape]

Not currently, no

[slate isle]

How to give items to teammates?

[median zenith]

right click the player's portrait in your party frames and select gift item - items that drop when in a party can be freely traded among players that were there when it dropped, otherwise you need a resonance, which randomly drop after awhile of playing together

[vestal plover]

so im trying to use a leveling guide from maxroll.gg and im using their provided loot filter. i see a lot of the rules are named things indicating theyre used "early campaign," or mid or late, etc... my question is... how do i know which part of the game im in?

do i need to enable or disable certain filter rules? or does maxroll.gg level guide loot filters have it setup to where i shouldnt need to mess with it?

[grand shoal]

Only the one that provides you a filter can provide these information.

I can only encourage people to learn to run their own filters. Engage with it, and you will learn a lot about the game. In the end it is not that complicated

[vestal plover]

ive looked through the rules and it makes sense. i guess the part im left scratching my head is which affixes exist, which ones are good for my build, which should be ignored, etc. thats why after getting to mid-30s myself... ive decided to look at this guide and its loot filter. im just tired of manually sorting through all the gear trying to find upgrades when i dont even know what im looking for bc idk what exists 😛

[grand shoal]

Yeah, that are learnings that come with playtime

[dense jay]

You can use LETools to see available affixes on each piece of equipment (helmet, body armour, glove, etc) but the filtering base on classes is not very convenient to look at

[open marten]

And if i use glyph of envy and fill stability Up, will he be eligible for the blessing ? (I fear its the same case) Coz this would be just a silly system for party

[desert tree]

Yes he will be

[surreal verge]

He'll need to have his own stability. Glyph only fills yours.

But if he does have the stability, then yes.

[open marten]

Ok , in that case i dont like it...

There is no incenive to play duo

[surreal verge]

The core incentive for parties is mostly "You can share all drops"

[open marten]

Also, when you are starting the echo, and he IS doing something in inventory, he gets intrerrupted Coz of silly loading screen...

Well, when you have the thingy..ressonance

And u have to have platinum ress to trade certain items

[surreal verge]

That's for drops that didn't drop while as a party.

You can freely 'gift' drops that dropped while you're in the same party and instance.

[open marten]

• drop rate is horrendous

[open marten]

Ah ok...thats at least something 🤓

[surreal verge]

But drops are kinda here and there until you hit empowered monoliths, so there's something to keep in mind.

[open marten]

We play since lvl1, now starting empowered....still ... party play needs some love 🥸

[desert tree]

Not sure I agree
Having party play better than Solo is not smth we want to see happening

You can have a better experience by building your characters around the fact you are a duo. Thats already a big advantage

[storm wren]

...... More odd and more odd

Such a pity that le can't appear under this title

Alright, single nomination per game... I suppose le can nominate Most Innovative Gameplay Award :)

Just play this game mainly in 2024 so I don't know how to nominate another rewards. I'm curious about will CM of le promote their game to vote for special reward 👀

The competition in 2025 will more cruel, good luck, EHG.

[vestal plover]

are experimental items worth keeping? everything ive found so far sucks, but do they have uses in crafting?

[storm wren]

You'll want experimental items in many builds, so it's depend on which build are you playing

[vestal plover]

this is what im working with... keep or trash? i understand everything is build dependent... but are these craftable into something good??

[storm wren]

I suggest check out which affixes are the most important for your builds before you start crafting

You'll want experimental affixes are t5 at least, which tier are these?

[vestal plover]

i guess im just caught up on those experimental affixes

definitely not t5

t1-2 lol

[storm wren]

Oh yeah they're trash

[vestal plover]

lol k thx

[surreal verge]

If you don't need them they're as useful as nothing.
If you have a rune of research you can burn them for a glyph that would allow you to craft an experimental affix

[vestal plover]

i finally started using a loot filter and am clearing out a lot of garbage ive been holding onto. thx for the input.

stun chance vs melee stun chance... does that mean my spells have a stun chance?

[surreal verge]

All hits can stun.

Those just boosts the calculation for stun

[grand shoal]

For boss drops you don't need stability, so you can just double them if you want to force that. Also you can share loot with each other, I call that a huge advantage

[open marten]

Yeah that is fine 🙂 i was just wondering about blessings....it takes a long time to fill Up stability and if you 1 step behind and miss 1 echo u are doomed 🙂

[sonic saddle]

you're too low level to be keeping stuff to be useful later

break down items that have affixes relevant to your build, but otherwise don't worry

[storm wren]

Do totem builds in le is friendly for beginners or they need some support from unique items?

Totem builds means shaman is the mastery I need definitely

[open mist]

i use that 2 but if i change my fire dmg items to lighting dmg items i lose dmg how 😄 need i fire dmg items or lihting dmg items later ?

[storm blaze]

lightning after full conversion

[storm wren]

You can refer to this build, if you want more damage, find these affixes on your gear:
Penetration with Lightning Invocations or Lightning Penetration.

[storm wren]

❗
But the damage from this build must weaker than plasma orb build on maxroll a lot due to the limit of flat spell damage

[open mist]

how much ward that build hold on just staying ?

[storm wren]

It keep 2.7k-2.9k in combats under 100 corruption, enough to defence

Builds for mage needs enough armour for defense too, don't forget get more armour from blessings

[open mist]

my fireball shows 50k+ all time and 5k ward all time i doent no is there good idea to lose half of that ward

[storm wren]

Your defense is low health set?

[open mist]

right now ye

[storm wren]

Oh then keep going your ways. I don't want to play low health so...

I played low health set enough by warlock and necromancer 😅

[open mist]

are you tryed that side of fireball ?

[storm wren]

I don't want to reduce cast speed just for extra projects so...

[open mist]

vs boss projectiles can hit same target not helps out ?

i respec some points i try out your fireball

[storm wren]

My logic for fireballs is max its base crit chance because fireballs is the core skill of this build, this build is crit based

If you find your damage not enough even your damage always crit, go to increase crit multiplier

[open mist]

for what is there mana strike ?

sometimes run out of mana ?

[storm wren]

Yeah, support mana

It's a lightning skill so it can help me to output damage even out of mana

So melee attack speed is important for this build except cast speed

I can't get crit multiplier from my sceptre yet unfortunately... Then it bonus more damage.

Perfect affixes on sceptre is crit multiplier + melee attack speed

[open mist]

oh i not even have traversal skills on build 😄

[storm wren]

You can use teleport if you want to use wrongwrap

[open mist]

yep i have t1 teleport

i use frost claw autoattack with supernova perk

[storm wren]

But wrongwrap don't have level bonus for runic invocation

[open mist]

some random extra dmg

need right now with cast speed version of that

but your crit build feels good

i add it i need check if i have items for that one

[storm wren]

I need a +18 intelligence one if I use that staff but I don't have one

More intelligence always better

[open mist]

i have 82 only

[storm wren]

You're playing sorcerer or runemaster?

Fireballs isn't a good skill for sorcerer due to its passive bonus

[open mist]

runemaster

yep that extra projectiles mana cost eat my mana out 😄

and for me damage per second is like 30k lowr

[grand shoal]

If you want to play fireball probably check the maxroll guide Puskar ^^

[acoustic thicket]

whats the higest dmg anyones seen bf

im making a wheel of torment build im hitting what ii think are good numbers

[grand shoal]

Just NO

[open mist]

Again the main classical fireball build is a sorc. Very classic, very straight forward and not weak at all

Sure you can do other builds. But saying fireball doesn't work on sorc is non sense

[grand shoal]

Me personally, like 3mil hits from Storm Totem (dummy ofc)

[acoustic thicket]

i just saw this

[open mist]

wtf 😄 😄

[acoustic thicket]

yeah bro

[open mist]

nerf incoming 😄

[toxic echo]

do not underestimate how absolutely fragile that 1b shatter strike build is.

literal breeze kills it

also pretty sure its been nerfed already.

[storm wren]

Can you recommend a sorcerer build which use fireballs instead of frost claw and without meteor?

[grand shoal]

Nope only did the straight forward fireball sorc, where Meteor gives all Mana sustain and a ton of fire pen. Never played myself a different fireball

[acoustic thicket]

its meteor

[grand shoal]

Not even sure if it would make any sense to leave out Meteor on that scenario as sorc. I'm not a good build cook myself

[acoustic thicket]

void doesnt counbt as an elliment riht?

[surreal verge]

No, elements are Fire, Cold, Lightning.

[acoustic thicket]

okie dokie

big tip someone gave me

press g lol

black hole scales cold

weird

and fire if u have the node ig

cant crit

[storm wren]

Oh meteor is a regular skill in fireball sorcerer builds of le, searched it

[storm wren]

Don't stack unique items on your gears because you'll lack resistance

[surreal verge]

It’s a DoT

[acoustic thicket]

makkes sense

[icy drift]

This is my screenshot, you can't do this anymore and you couldn't abuse it even when you could do it. It was just a meme

[acoustic thicket]

sh

i am aware of these things tho

i just saw the ss in gen

[icy drift]

Shatter strike ain't bad either though

Yep

You're doing a bit over double the tooltip on shatter strike so this is 120+ mil DPS, was achieved vs multiple targets though, single target would be quite a bit less

And like eagles said I don't recommend playing it. It requires you to dodge pretty much every single enemy attack including white mobs

[cedar locust]

Aka an enforced #NoHit run 😅

[open mist]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/profile/puskar/character/MARIO i going to tank rive build can someone show up some good passive tree to take up `?

[grizzled sage]

if the mana cost is 8 rn can i get it to 0 with this?

[toxic echo]

Yes

[grizzled sage]

does anyone know why casting frost wall repeatedly drops my fps by a large amount?

[cedar locust]

Is that everywhere in game or on specific maps?

[grizzled sage]

everywhere

this happens

[cedar locust]

Huh, please submit an In Game Bug Report for that! I'll send it to the team 😊

[grizzled sage]

alr

is there any way to add more forging potential to an item

[cedar locust]

Nope

Snap!

[storm wren]

https://www.reddit.com/r/LastEpoch/comments/1h217mo/how_do_you_feel_about_so_many_passives_unique/

That's an interesting topic

Do you think hard caps in unique items/passives/skills is a good thing or not, why?

🤭 what I can sure is different answers under different angles so this question is quite open

[faint cape]

Nothing is innately good or bad, it's just a design decision. For example, they can make things scale much better for low investment if they give it a cap. If they make everything uncapped, it might just feel like none of them are worthwhile unless you solely focus on one.

[wicked mauve]

Hi all i just start the cycle little too late, i need a build Can leveling easy and same for endgame, i like all class and play style thanks

[tranquil field]

Guys, someone knows where i can find a good filter for MG? Basically i need one showing valuable things to sell on market

[grizzled sage]

what is minion dmg i see loads of items with it

is it for another class that has summons or smth

[toxic echo]

Its for anything thats a minion/companion/totem

Most classes have some access to decent minions. Some more than others

[desert tree]

Only Mage has no real minion

[grizzled sage]

ah

im using mage xd

[candid elm]

Elemental Bees Huge Idol !!!
(yeah, still not real minion type stuff)

[faint cape]

Still waiting for the bee-teor unique to drop

[candid elm]

Ok that sounds kind of fun

[abstract garnet]

hello guys, am new just want to ask if its good to use runes of ascendant while early game or should I save it once I get like higher level equipment?

[swift hound]

I understand that EHG won't chase modders, I am just wondering if there is anyone that knows of a community online that is actively working on extracting the game data to do mods that can change quests/inv images/skill abilities. If you could DM me if not allowed here. Absolutely love LE, just also love building mods.

[toxic echo]

Your level doesnt matter at all
Use em whenever you want to gamble for a unique

[abstract garnet]

thank youu!

[tranquil field]

The chance to get Lightning Aegis from Mage Large Idol it's when you are hit by enemies or when you hit enemies? I can't find info about that specific on wiki

[faint cape]

When hit = you're the one getting hit (this is what the idol gives)
On hit = you're hitting an enemy

[tranquil field]

Ok, thanks a lot

[wanton summit]

Offline or online?

Does it really matter if I play offline if I intend to play solo

[surreal verge]

You won't have access to MTX and Merchant's Guild (Trading) if offline.

[acoustic thicket]

So I'm seeing other elements when Ijus wanna see thunder loot

But will still see loot like this

[surreal verge]

Did you also pick spell damage and physical resist, and that the loot filter does NOT hide anything by default and you need to make a hide rule.

[desert tree]

Did you hide everything first and then try to show the stuff you want?

[faint cape]

If you only made a "show" rule, your filter does nothing - it's gotta hide or recolor to do anything

[acoustic thicket]

I didn't try that, and I'll try now

[acoustic thicket]

Nope, I didn't specify in that

[surreal verge]

Then it's "The loot filter hides nothing by default"

[acoustic thicket]

I figured it out :D, thank you all

[storm wren]

Maybe... There's a way to mod this game without any limit indeed (oh sorry game developer is captured by another people): https://eleventhhourgames.bamboohr.com/careers/74

[swift hound]

Thanks for not helping. Let me just go refresh my resume and quit the military to learn how to do multiplayer servers and join the team...

[desert tree]

Be nice, Kirra is just trying to help. She can be a bit clumsy and the language barrier is not helping

[surreal verge]

Mostly the language barrier

[storm wren]

🤔 Oh sorry. Don't know your case and it's impossible indeed.

[prime patio]

How does the affix "reduced dmg taken from blocked hits" work? Does the game first take out from the damage received that percentage that says "reduced dmg taken on blocked hits" first and then your block effectiveness takes out another part of the damage received?

I am wondering how good that affix is

[desert tree]

Reduced Dmg on Block is a separate modifier and since its multiplicative the order doesnt matter

Its a really good affix

[prime patio]

If you can answer one more thing for me I would be really grateful 😄

[desert tree]

Hit me

[prime patio]

To be honest I am struggling to understand the impact of "multiplicative" modifiers. How much dmg would you reduce if you had, say, 14% reduced dmg on block and another 14% reduced dmg on block from block effectiveness?

I don't think you would reduce 28% as that would be additive not multiplicative, right?

[desert tree]

Let take a hit of 100

[desert tree]

Correct thats additive

100 x (1-0.14) x (1-0.14) = 100 x 0.86 x 0.86 = 100 x 0.7396 = 73.96 Dmg

If it was additive it would be 100 x (1-0.28) = 72

Problem is : if every source of DR is additive you can reach 100% Dmg Reduction, meaning you are immune to dmg

Thats why its always Multiplicative

[prime patio]

Ahhhh, makes sense

Thanks a lot for the explanation!

[desert tree]

My pleasure

[prime patio]

I am guessing this would also be the reason why you don't want to stack too much damage reduction? Since you get diminishing returns?

[eternal lark]

I have recently seen someone on controller respec fully at the Chronomancer including putting points back in. Is that somehow possible on mouse and keyboard?

[desert tree]

There is a respect all button

Its in the top right corner of the window

[eternal lark]

Yeah, I know, I ended up doing that, but when respecing my base class you always have to go back and forth between the vendor window and your skills to put stuff in and take others out. I think controller, from what I saw, lets you put points in in the vondor interface, that was what I was asking for ^^

[desert tree]

I haven't played with a controller but what you are describing is not in the game

[storm wren]

Waiting the monthly interview post by Wick

[untold cloak]

Endgame torment warlock, is there a specific unique amulet i should be looking for or just a good exalted one? Also, any tips on farming red ring of altaria?

[toxic echo]

likely just a good exalted one

if CoF, ring prophecies with all the telescope perks you can use. if MG...spam unique ring echo nodes and pray to rng

[surreal verge]

Just a good exalted, confluence of fate, or any of the defensive ones.

[untold cloak]

Thank you both! I think confluence of fate dropped for me yesterday and I saved it cause I had never seen it before

I am COF and have been spamming them lol. Are dungeons better or monolith timelines?

[toxic echo]

doesnt matter for prophecies

[vestal plover]

well this isnt confusing

"you wont be able to join the other faction while youre a member of this one" and then below it says "you will be able to switch faction later on if you choose."

how do u switch later if you cant join the other while youre a member of the opposite?

[grizzled sage]

i think they mean that you cant join 2 at once

but can switch from one to another

idk i havent even reached that point

[vestal plover]

just joined one. you have option to leave it and then join back or the other faction. my question is... does your "favor" reset if you leave and rejoin the same faction later?

[storm wren]

....
Question: I can't enter game by clicking enter game button.

Tried switch different region and restarted the game. At the first time, I can click enter game and this button is purple. But it's greyed after I restart the game, switch another region and want to click it again.

Submit igbr already

[toxic echo]

yes you loose favor, but not your rank

[storm wren]

And the game switch to legacy character at first after I click start game...I need to swap it back every time 🙃 (Maybe because I deleted legacy characters before?)

This is my meaning

Can't check out particle system he mentioned in the interview unfortunately... Alright, sleep time 💤

There may be a small delay when trying to click ‘Enter Game’ for Offline Characters

Well... it's even stop working on online mode hhh

[lavish notch]

where do you guys use rune of creation?

how many times can i use it on t7?

is it one time use for one specific item?

[storm wren]

one time per item because it'll cost all remain forge potential

Lvl up your character
Take the xp reward echoes

[storm wren]

oh the game is stuck sometimes. It worked now

Grab a gregory in bazaar

[grizzled sage]

aside from campaign whats a fast way to do that

[desert tree]

Monoliths

But skill lvl is tied to character lvl

So you cant force your skill to lvl up

Lvl 20 arrives around lvl 75

[grizzled sage]

wheres a good place to look to tell what the mobs damage type and resistances are?

i see some descriptions under some mob names, but it doesnt seem very informative for the most part

in general you can tell more or less what their damage type is from the color

or if mobs start hitting me much harder, id like to know specifically what i can do to diminish that uptick in incoming damage

When doing a first playthrough with a new character, should I just focus on finishing the story vs lookin for gear?

[spice vine]

No, run as fast fas you can

You can do mono at level 40+

Skip story, come back after 80+

[acoustic thicket]

Whats mono?

[faint cape]

Just enjoy the story and build up your character along the way. That other stuff mentioned above is for people familiar with the game and have made a few characters already

I feel I can write a super long article if I write all of what I learnt in this game down?...

How to craft, how to evade attack from enemies, how to know which affixes this build needs are, how to select prophecies, how to figure out which skills the build I want to play needs, how to build my defense and offense...etc
