[undone otter]

but ya I hear ya

I wish they could be a little more sticky when you use the minion attack keybind too

[merry torrent]

well like if i have multiple golems they tend to all jump on the same target

[undone otter]

I leveled my 1st LE Necro to 85 before I discovered the minion attack keybind

lol

.<

[merry torrent]

lol

[undone otter]

before I was an employee 😛

[merry torrent]

😛

would be cool if a hold position command could be activated, maybe double tapping the move command would lock them at that location that way you can order them out of aoe's and not instantly walk back into them

and another single tap would unlock them

just a random idea

[lean locust]

Sheesh - so I am a dense brick - trying to merge my kestrel - its class locked lol

[faint cape]

I want something like Mike keeps mentioning, give me minion "stances". Like a button I can press to swap my minions between "spread out targets for max clear speed" and "focus beefy bois"

[lean locust]

I just learned that they will always be class locked lol

💀

[faint cape]

RIP, yeah affixes carry over their class requirements unfortunately 😔

[lean locust]

So then I need to figure out what to level

[lean locust]

I have no idea!!!!

[faint cape]

Same 😅

[lean locust]

Void Knight looks kinda cool too

Too many choices!

[wide sentinel]

im going es vk for sure

time to make 2h sentinel great again

[last kayak]

IDK new Javelin nodes like sick

[wide sentinel]

javelin will be best on fg, cause u can go crit+shield, so another block meta

[faint cape]

Yeah, but electrify jav is beautiful

[wide sentinel]

hmm maybe itll be tanky enough if u go some kind of vessel setup?

they said they buffed regen to the point that they needed to nerf vessel

so im assuming u can get like 3-4k hp regen, otherwise it wouldnt be broken

[last kayak]

Also I just love lightning 🤷‍♀️

The build style they showed on stream looked rad

[merry torrent]

Every once and awhile I watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2defet1tLNs and I get a hankering for a lightning build.

[last kayak]

Haha, that scene is peak marvel, for sure

[merry torrent]

I just tricked myself into it again, looking at making a lightning spell blade lol

[faint cape]

We can do that currently on primalist

but on paladin you could definitely do 1h+shield, no need for a spear on electrify

[wide sentinel]

aurelis stronk

[last kayak]

Smitening is also a fun build

[wide sentinel]

what confused me is karv saying that judgment does more dmg now

[faint cape]

Honestly, can't get any closer to than than Vilatria. Set rework is coming, just saying.

[wide sentinel]

like that build was oneshotting julra

[faint cape]

Basically everything on sentinel got buffed numberswise was my take

[wide sentinel]

ya but judgment had like 1000%+ more dmg in 1 mana node

now its capped

well not capped but significantly reduced

by at least 5 times

[faint cape]

It's the same, isn't it?

[wide sentinel]

nope

it consumes max 20% mana

not 100%

[faint cape]

Yeah, but for the same buff just without consuming as much mana

[wide sentinel]

wdym?

how can u get the same buff if buff directly scales with how much mana consumed

unless they will make it hit for 2mil on bosses while consuming only 20% of mana

[merry torrent]

Ah nice, thank you for the tip, was wondering how to get good spell damage on a spell blade so I can run static

[faint cape]

They changed the scalar. It gives the same % more damage when maxed out

it consumes 1/4th the mana, but gives 4 times as much damage multiplier, so it evens out to be identical damage

[merry torrent]

oh so they just made it better by having it cost less 😛

[wide sentinel]

oh it does, i misread the multipler per mana 🤔 judgment time then for sure, might be able to reach erasing strike dps

[faint cape]

Yeah exactly, like now you will need to have some way to manage mana, but at least they didn't totally screw over the build

[wide sentinel]

well 2h rive most likely

[merry torrent]

yeah because constnatly 1 shotting the mana was a bit annoying

[wide sentinel]

and mana regen

[faint cape]

It is subtle, 2% per 1 vs. 1% per 2

[wide sentinel]

yA

2h judgment seed of ygdrasil vessel rive paladin

[sullen summit]

Does somebody teorycrafting heartseeker + burning daggers ?

[wide sentinel]

impossible to do now

[last kayak]

We need patch notes to be sure that things will be good

The stream was in a super low level area, so really hard to tell

[wide sentinel]

ya its literally a question of how many %more dmg multipliers skill tree has

but i dont see any dowsides of using it along dragonsong for some more clear

[last kayak]

We also know there's a unique that turns heartseeker into a throwing ability, so that may have a massive effect as well

[oblique geyser]

if a staff has increased cold damage...is it for melee or spells too?

[edgy turtle]

Hey everyone! With leading up to s2, im looking to join a community on discord thats active in voice chat who runs LE multiplayer often together, anyone know of such a thing?

[last kayak]

% Increased damage is for both

[oblique geyser]

i found a staff with 359% and that sounds like so much for spells i think 🙀

[last kayak]

High rolls on it are very good, but remember it stacks additively with other sources of increased damage. For example, if you have 100 of whatever attribute your spell scales with, that will give you 400% increased damage. If you had that staff equipped as well, you'd have a total of 759% increased damage.

There are certain points where it's more beneficial to look for other scaling types that scale multiplicatively instead of linearly.

[oblique geyser]

im mostly acolyte summoner right now...just found a staff like this and was wondering if its good for spells 😇

[last kayak]

Yep, BUT it won't be good for minions. Minions (mostly) scale with their own stats, so you'll want to look for modifiers that specifically call out that they're for minions. Some skills also convert your scaling to minion damage, but IDK what those look like for acolyte

[oblique geyser]

yeah i have lots of minion damage like in flat number and %

[blazing glacier]

stop it, I can only change my mind on what class to start with so many times before I go crazy

[faint cape]

It's too late for me

[undone otter]

the answer is always minions - duh

😉

[lean locust]

Me. Every league in POE. Change my mind 300 times, and then at league start... create 3 toons, reroll reroll reroll

[blazing glacier]

The closest you will probably ever see to me playing minions is Falconer xd

[lean locust]

And then end up playing something totally different

[undone otter]

<unsubscribes>

[blazing glacier]

this is the way

[lean locust]

How does campaign skipping effect your passives and idols? Do you need to go back and do them after you hit monoliths? Planning on skipping them this round.

[faint cape]

I'm almost for sure going to make at least 4 chars. I gotta run heartseeker, mana guide, a sentinel or three, and I'm even thinking about another locust swarm...

[faint cape]

It can cause you to miss out on some. I usually run campaign until The Oracle's Abode, switch to the monolith for a while, do Temporal Sanctum whenever I get a key to skip to chapter 9, then finish that one chapter. Gets your item faction, all your passives and idols, and +1 all attributes from Majasa.

I don't remember what chapter Oracle's Abode actually is. Like 5?

[lean locust]

Sounds about right

[lean locust]

Cool that helps

[faint cape]

It can take a little while to get a sanctum key if you're unlucky btw, so I'm not sure what's optimal on your first character if you're into optimizing stuff (you won't get your item faction until you use it) - obviously for alts you don't need to worry about that

[lean locust]

Its an alt with a twink setup 🙂

Loads of keys 😄

[faint cape]

Oh yeah, then you'll already have your item faction and won't have any issues at all with the monolith

[lean locust]

Time for bed thoiugh zzz

Night all

[storm wren]

@blazing glacier Genius idea. Exile rogue/exile sentinel/exile acolyte/exile primalist will super cool. Holy I'm tired at exile mages for a long time because only exile mages in game. But I can sure we will not see this idea be executed in 1.2. It's equal to deaign a new gameplay system...
To be honest, I guess even exiled mages, we can go more advanced such as exiled runemaster/exiled sorcerer/exiled spellblade... Why just stay on exiled mages?

[ripe tiger]

do we have a date for when the patch notes will drop or something for new season

[fluid saddle]

nope

expect maybe like 1 week to maybe a few days prior

[mossy shadow]

Guessing it would be after or during Aaron's podcast stream

thats why he ask for the last date

[outer mango]

several days before launch they said in stream

but who know how much is that

[dusky kite]

Good minion builds in le tend to be a lot more active and involved than in Poe though

Have you played Pathfinder, tabletop or WOTR? Small units should fight large units via swarm rules, you can take that as an inspiration for bees or locusts in le

[storm wren]

Dear soul carriage :)

the pity is the carriage don't have luminous textures :(

[stray trench]

Just started playing this game and finally dropped one of these daggers, but i need 2 of them. Should i use this Rune of creation or is there a big catch?

nevermind just noticed you cant forge unqiues

[dusky kite]

yeah that's the big catch

[storm wren]

@restive epoch The trick I found about get more glyph of envy is... Don't miss any green/purple/yellow/orange lizards. I never see a blue lizard give me this glyph so it's ignored.

Green lizard is the most rare so 100% chance I can get one envy at least

[restive epoch]

I got about 700-800 Envys so Im fine with that 😄

[storm wren]

😱 !?

20 in my inventory only. I'm poor...Extreme poor

[mossy shadow]

to be fair, Olvrin been at this since like 1.0, and he mostly going for legacy run next season. So its understandable

I can image he killed 400-500 Harbi already lol

[storm wren]

oh good reminder

xddddd... Alright it's poor too

[restive epoch]

No idea when I started playing, like around 0.7+? 😄 1020h and I pretty much skipped 1.0, 300ish hours since start of 2025... no idea how many harbringers I killed, gotta check that later 😄

[storm wren]

70 harbingers are killed but I get less than 50 eyes 🤷‍♀️

[mossy shadow]

oh boy, here we go. xD

[restive epoch]

If you can do 500+ corruption, you might be able to kill Aberroth... there is a lot of his skills all over the place, but once you get used to his attacks, its ezpz fight 😄 also being able to stun him is huuuge

[toxic echo]

as a reminder, eye drops scale with corr....way more likely to get eye drops at say, 600, than 300

and tbh, at 70 harb kills, less than 50 eyes doesnt really seem that bad

more than 35 is more than 50% drop rate

[restive epoch]

Yeah... now Im just saving eyes for 1.2 if we would need them to unlock uber aberroth 😄

[desert tree]

From what they said on stream last Friday

Uberroth will be a Woven Echo that drop from killing Aberroth

[storm wren]

consider my level is 1/5 chance to kill a harbinger, can't kill Aberroth is reasonable

If 2mins for killing a harbinger then 4mins to kill Aberroth at least. And you will lose the eye if you failed at the first phrase, double harbingers' hunting

[restive epoch]

Yea that might be a bit hard 😄

[cunning canyon]

Hey everyone

I need help understanding "Leech" for my own practical comprehension....

I am currently playing a Lich- Acolyte and i want to understand the way leech works.

What i have:

Damage leeched as health: 8%
Damage leeched as health ON HIT: 14%
Spelldamage leeched as health: 15%
Lich-Based Leech: 1% for all damage

PLUS: [Shared] Physical damage leeched as health (Acolyte chest affix) 2,2% (not shown in UI)

How is leech calculated if my only damage source is a PHYSICAL SPELL HIT. Will i get the leech value from everything? Is there a certain formular?
It can't be 8% + 14% + 15% +2.2% = 39,2% leech right? Because in practice i don't see it and it also doesn't feel like it.

My basic understanding is:

If i have 10% leech on a 1000 hit, it is 100 health regained over 3 seconds, meaning a 33 hps value for 3 seconds. EASY
If i have 10% leech on a 10k hit, it is 1000 health regained over 3 seconds, meaning a 333 hps value for 3 seconds. EASY

What i can do at the moment is hitting for roughly 50k upfront, meaning, for my understanding:
If i have 10% leech on a 50k hit, it is 5000 health regained over 3 seconds, meaning rougly 1700 hps value for 3 seconds.

But what about all the different sources of leech? How do they interact with each other? And what about my 2,2% on the chest?

I NEVER see such high amount of leech in practice. Is there anything else that i am missing? Any secret or 3-way interaction happening when it comes to the ACTUAL leech?
How can it be, that i barely see huge regen spikes for my health if i have a decent amount of leech AND damage.

Thanks in advance

[storm wren]

I want the level of action skills like streamers really but my reaction speed is too slow really

React too fast or too slow, just not in the correct moment

@surreal verge what the difference between damage leeched as health and damage leeched as health on hit?

[surreal verge]

Your first mistake is trusting the char sheet.
Damage leeched as health on hit considers damage leeched as health.
So your raw "Damage leech as health on hit" is supposedly 6%, not 14%.

[desert tree]

One only applies to Hit

[surreal verge]

This also means your possible raw spell damage leeched as health is 7%, not 15%.

[cunning canyon]

Yeah, so 7%. but 7% from 50k hits is 3500 health over 3 seconds, with no leech rate adjust... i should get 1,2k roughly PER second

[storm wren]

spell damage counts in damage leeched as health? I remember spell damage don't has "hit" concept

[surreal verge]

50k hits from where? Dummy?

[desert tree]

That's wrong

Most spell hits

[surreal verge]

Because all mobs at area level 100 has 90% natural untouchable DR.

[cunning canyon]

Marrow Shard hits on enemies

[desert tree]

Rip Blood, Marrow Shards, Fireball etc...

[surreal verge]

The damage number you see on landing the hit, or tooltip dps?

[storm wren]

then why we need to make leech as health and leech as health on hit... Double affixes

[cunning canyon]

But how do i never get a real regen after a 50k hit?
It just feels like the leech is somehow vanishing, i get like nothing in return

[cunning canyon]

actual hits, sometimes 60k ish

[desert tree]

Because one is more narrow
I don't know, flavour maybe

[desert tree]

Once you hit full life the leech is lost

[surreal verge]

Assuming you're leeching 10k and have 2k health:
If the first tick heals your to full, the other 2 ticks are removed.

Exception:Death Seal, since you technically have missing health.

[cunning canyon]

my feeling is i get 0 leech at all

it is not functioning even with these shown UI entries.

If i have a physical SPELL HIT, for 50k i somehow expect insta leech with my current 1k hp pool

[vale thistle]

weird that this isn't mentioned in the game guide tbh

[cunning canyon]

i would like to show you my concern in a stream, if it is more accurate

because i cannot explain it otherwise

[vale thistle]

it's possible you have something preventing leech

[surreal verge]

Do you have some unique that disables leech?

[cunning canyon]

nope

[surreal verge]

Do you have hollow lich the passive node?

[cunning canyon]

[surreal verge]

I'll want a dollar for that advice thanks.

[cunning canyon]

the fck
this never happend before actually.

how could i have missed that. xD

[vale thistle]

damage leeched as health applies to everything
damage leeched as health on hit excludes damage over time

[surreal verge]

I need that "people misread hollow lich" jar again.

I bet that jar will get filled again if lich gets a rework and doesn't touch it.

[storm wren]

so damage leeched as health in dot = damage leeched as health - damage leeched as health on hit?

[cunning canyon]

I hate myself now. Thanks for your help though. 😕

[vale thistle]

I don't think the opposite leech stat that specifically requires damage over time exists anywhere in LE yet, but if it did, sure

[desert tree]

Dmg leeched ad Health = Dmg leeched on hit + Dmg leech on Dot

[storm wren]

thanks

[vale thistle]

leeching from damage over time is very strong tbh, one of the best parts of playing a DoT build

[storm wren]

Forget there's a damage type in le call damage over time entirely 😅

[glacial rivet]

Am I chat banned or something?

I can't say anything in game

[storm wren]

I don't think I have tried a build which includes damage over time leeched as health

[restive epoch]

Check your block list, there is some self-block bug happening... others should be able to see your messages normally... I usually restart my game, but it doesnt happen to me too much

[glacial rivet]

How do I look at my block list?

I have only ever blocked one person

[restive epoch]

Default should be H => blocked players

[glacial rivet]

I do have myself blocked

And it's greyed out

[restive epoch]

More will come

Tried to block myself, game got confused 😄

[glacial rivet]

I fixed it I guess /unblock and my name worked

[storm wren]

😵 1287 corruption...the level I remain respect and esteem

[mossy shadow]

well if u have 1000+ hours

i think you would trive to get to 1k corr. as a goal

coz its one of mine

along with other goal for season 2

[restive epoch]

I'd like to push it higher, for the bosses I need gear from, but that is Lagon and... screw doing Lagon on high corruption 😄

[quick crown]

since we've heard confirmation from the devs that Vessel of Strife is getting a nerf, would it be extra meaningful to farm it now? (does legacy items exist is what im asking) or does all existing items update to new values when the patch goes live? meaning it would not matter if i farmed it now or later

i was planning on using vessel of strife as my means of defense on the new build i was going to make for the patch

but if legacy items dont exist i will need to rethink my gear

if anyone is curious, the confirmation comes from the dev interview Ghazzy had the other day where they mentioned it would be getting a nerf, they did not mention what stats on it would be nerfed but i would assume that its the ratio of life regen to ward regen that is getting a nerf

[storm blaze]

When an item is nerfed all versions of it get hit

[restive epoch]

ok I guess I have a bit more of them, lol, I guess I should start using them more... 😄

[dusky kite]

its written in the tears of merophage users

[faint cape]

They did say it would be slight, because regen is getting buffed. Might even out. Ward is getting a shakeup in general, though, so will probably be harder to build in general.

[storm wren]

4830, 5268, 7533, 11956... 🫡

[faint cape]

There are ways to prevent yourself from reaching full health through leech

[storm wren]

🤭 ... I've defined what's a poor account at least

[restive epoch]

I just like hoarding stuff 😛

[mossy shadow]

YO!!!! Fellow Hoarder

[storm wren]

I don't want to collect these common glyphes and runes after I never will short on that

🤭 I wonder the max limit per runes and glpyhes now

[icy drift]

high enough not to worry about anyone hitting it for a while

[restive epoch]

Could be 999 999, just like for favor 😄

[outer mango]

make it D4 style, stack of 50's

[storm wren]

I doubt you never use envy

[hexed wasp]

Hello, does anyone know if the dev's have mentioned anything about the loot filter being able to select specific unique's as the rule target? I know you can do a recolor uni then item type and make it have a level rule. The issue what caused the question is i'm trying to make just the "phantom grip" ring be recolored but the only way i can do it also shows the "ring of the third eye". Thanks for any help especially if u have a working solution

[storm wren]

This glyph can be comsumed quickly

I feel people never can recognize my data is from a player who play le 1200h+/over half of year 🤭 Too casual

[faint cape]

They have mentioned some tweaks are coming to the loot filter, but no details yet. It's not impossible.

[storm wren]

oh maybe they can do this thing by my death times xdddd

1295, 627, 184, 599, 56, 191

OHHHHH died 2952 times in game. Close to 3k, great

[glacial rivet]

How long should I be expecting it to take to drop a red ring?

Stacking prophecies but I'm not rank 12

[icy drift]

it's about 1 in every 700 unique rings or so (confused it with something else for a sec)

[storm wren]

prepare to spend 500K+ favour on that but find nothing, you'll fine

[hexed wasp]

it could take a day it could take a year. my first red ring dropped around 2,000h's of LE playtime end of the day its all play time x luck x rng with a little bit of scewing the odds in favour with 2 timeline blessings or cof props

[glacial rivet]

I'm about 200k in prophecies into it.

Hopefully soon lol

[mossy shadow]

AND ITS 0LP with bad roll

Better luck next time

[faint cape]

At least nowadays you can egg it

[mossy shadow]

indeed man, thank goodness for Neme eggs

[glacial rivet]

I'm definitely dying a lot more at 300 corruption

I don't know how to stop it lol. Crit avoidance capped. Res capped, and 3k stable ward

[rugged sinew]

3k ward is a bit low

[glacial rivet]

Noted.

[last kayak]

You also might need other defenses. Do you have much armor or dodge? Both of those make ward more effective

[glacial rivet]

34% armor, 832 stun avoidance but only 2% dodge

[rugged sinew]

armor is a bit low too

[last kayak]

Yeah, one of the things about ward is that if you're going to use it as a main defense you need to pump armor up to make ward give you as much value as possible

And some supplementary dodge can help a lot with that too. Blessings can give you a lot of power as far as resists go, so try and make sure you've got good blessings/rolls, and then keep your resists (close) to cap while bumping up armor, dodge and ward retention+threshold.

If you're going full ward, you don't need endurance or endurance threshold except for a few specific cases. HOWEVER if you're using hybrid ward/life setup (which might be real good in 1.2), then you definitely want endurance and threshold.

[fresh flint]

Hey folks, trying to spawn Alfrig Wolfmaw in Arena Tier 1, just to get his unique. I've done 12 runs but just got the other two bosses to spawn. Unlucky RNG or can't he spawn in Tier 1?

[faint cape]

Unlucky RNG 😔

[fresh flint]

Ty for the info. Got him on run 13 😉

[blazing glacier]

Had to check too, it's funny how I have so much less of some things and so much more of others

Perhaps a bit of exiled mage farming happened lmao

[faint cape]

That's gotta be at least 30 exiled mage kills

[blazing glacier]

when all you need is a spoon 😦

[faint cape]

Low key, even though I don't think anybody uses blessed glyphs, I hope the glyph of insight is the crafting material getting removed and replaced with a more straightforward reward from a woven echo or something

[blazing glacier]

didn't they say it was?

or something about experimental crafting or something

I forget

[faint cape]

No clue, all I know is they said one crafting material is being removed, and I know they've also said they aren't exactly happy with how experimental crafting turned out

[blazing glacier]

😮

because its all 3rd party tool for determinism which I think they dont like

[faint cape]

I could have easily missed if they said which or what

[blazing glacier]

I guess they could change it to get affixes other way

also we've seen maps full of mages...

so maybe...

thats how you get your experimental affixes

[faint cape]

Yeah, this was exactly what came to mind when I was thinking of a replacement

We know that's a woven echo (I think), but one with a crafting bench reward could be that one or a different tier of a similar theme woven echo

[flint laurel]

I would probably be able to find the answer somewhere but id rather ask you guys. Is it possible for me to duo the campaign with someone. also how is progression tracked in case you are both in different parts of the campaign?

[toxic echo]

yes you can party up at anytime using the h menu

progression is just tracked by quest flags. you can jump arounda good bit

[flint laurel]

alright. i have like 100 hours in beta but havent played since launch. also i never had someone to play with.

[rancid panther]

Would it be possible to hit yourself with Boardman's legacy set, or on that note is it possible to generate small self hits in any way?

[restive epoch]

2702 mage runes, thats wild 😄

[faint cape]

The only way to hit yourself as far as I know is bone curse aura, but that only procs when you are hit by an enemy 😅
(and of course, not possible on primalist anyway)

[rancid panther]

ahh that's a shame, thanks!

[faint cape]

You are meaning for proccing the storm totem, I'm guessing?

the set does mention "hit" a lot, but all the "hit" by storm totem on allies are not technically real hits, just means when you happen to be in the area of a lightning bolt from it, and it also does not target allies unfortunately

[rancid panther]

interesting, I guess the wording is a little confusing.

Thanks for the help either way!

[rugged sinew]

how much % more damage do enemies gain from corruption currently at 300 corruption

[toxic echo]

https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/monolith-scaling

[merry torrent]

Basically it's roughly around 2.2x damage/life of existing modifiers for every time you double your corruption. *starting at corruption 100, before then it's exactly 2x damage/life when you double your corruption

[lavish dew]

I think that's right, I asked a question if it would be possible to have an experimental, champion and set affix on an item at the same time and Mike said it couldn't happen due to some changes

[faint cape]

Oh yeah, good point

I guess another thing that supports this is the new havoc rune. Experimental crafting on its own is a lot less important just with the existence of that, given that it'll be more important to just be able to get the right one on an exalted rather than fiddling with all the junk to get the highest tier experimental you can.

More reason to just axe exp crafting as is, unless the change just disables using the glyph on special items lol

[high pike]

Hi Everyone! I am going to play the new upcoming patch of LE and I was wondering what in your opinion are the most key changes that happened this past year. I did not get to play for around 1 year and was not able to keep up with changes at all. Would be great if you could share your thoughts on this!

[desert tree]

Sorcerer, Falcon and Warlock were reaaaalllyyy strong in 1.1
Should be pretty good for 1.2

Sentinel is getting a complete face-lift, so a lot of new goodies there

[high pike]

Ah I should have mentioned that I am less concerned with balance for now. I was thinking more about content. I did play Circle of Fortune which was fun as a group and hoping to do so again.

[desert tree]

• Loot lizard (like diablo goblin)
• Nemesis (banger mechanic)
• Harbingers (extra bosses)
• Abberoth (pinnacle boss)
  That's was 1.1

For 1.2

#news message

[high pike]

Oh that looks like a nice upgrade to the endgame content.
Is the Loot Lozard like the Diablo 3 Goblin that explodes into loot when you kill it?

[desert tree]

Yup

[high pike]

Fancy.

[harsh grove]

why is my loot not visible?

completely removed my loot filter

[desert tree]

You might have press Alt + z

[harsh grove]

that works, what does alt + z do?

[desert tree]

Hide items labels

You might want to remove that bind ^^

[harsh grove]

definitely will lol, don't know its purpose

[toxic echo]

its just there is the screen gets cluttered and its starting to effect your visual clarity.

[chrome osprey]

Do we still not have any info regardin when patch notes drop?

[outer mango]

Several days before launch

[shut walrus]

are there still going to be harbingers in Tombs of the Erased?

[edgy sphinx]

Ofc, why wouldn't there be?

[desert tree]

Yes that's core content

[storm wren]

How does EHG consider which affixes will be prefixes and which affixes will be suffixes?
How will EHG deal with which affixes are hybrid and which affixes are alone?

Why no one interested in these questions 🙃

[vale thistle]

itemization is being discussed with karv, mike, and judd on march 21; questions about upcoming affixes probably won't be answered until then

[storm wren]

!? How do you know which devs will join in dev stream next week

[vale thistle]

TalkativeTri posted about it on reddit, lol

https://old.reddit.com/r/LastEpoch/comments/1jc9w55/developer_interview_321_itemization_w_karv_mike/

[storm wren]

Affixes belong to part of itemization definitely but the problem is... My questions will just flood in another comments if no one interested in that too

[gleaming salmon]

I need to farm snowdrift boots. They come from spirits of fire “unique or set boots”. Does it mean they only come from echo specific double colored green/orange nodes and never drop from the full orange “unique item” nodes?

And if so, do I need to do empowered mono for them double colored nodes to appear? I don’t think I’ve seen them in normal mono

[fluid saddle]

by closing their eyes and spinning the wheel of fate (affixes)

xd

[narrow spear]

is there any way to influence how much stability glyph of envy adds to the timeline?

I feel like even using it on items with high affixes often results in ~170. then on 2s and 3s I get 200

[tribal meadow]

2 more weeks

[desert tree]

Random

[narrow spear]

thanks 🙂

[gaunt igloo]

any place where i can find strats for the most optimal way to get to endgame with idols unlocked?

asap

[topaz shoal]

Random drop - so can be anywhere. Can check here for ways to increase odds (Spirits of Fire one of them): https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/unique/snowdrift

[desert tree]

Dont forget to use RoA

[tribal meadow]

Raxx is doing campaign speedruns on his streams

[gaunt igloo]

thanks ill check his vods

[topaz shoal]

~110 minute run here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ki8yyMu9kCU

[vale thistle]

thought you said ~10 minute run at first and I'm pretty sure my brain rebooted

[oblique geyser]

empowering is the only way to give a unique legendary potentail when it has none?

[toxic echo]

only thru nemesis, yeah

[teal oyster]

I had red ring of atlaria in nemesis - I was fighting him with challenge, almost got him killed, then got disconnect... next nemesis --> had no ring.
I assume my dot killed him in the short time till the char logged out.

Is there a way to recover it? X_X

[hoary widget]

Harbinger gate to get to empowered is terible. Back to PoE1.

[desert tree]

?

You mean the fact you have to kill a Harbinger to be able to go to Empowered Monos, where mobs will be at least on that difficulty lvl, so allowing you to assess if you build will be good enough ?

[fluid saddle]

speaking of that considering its been so long since i played what is the usually time into a playthrough progress wise you would fight a harbinger or those just the bosses of each mono type ? sorta forget

[desert tree]

1st Harbi is encountered right before you reach empowered
So after the 3rd lvl 90 timelines
If this is your 1st character of the cycle/season

If its an alt its after the 1st lvl 90 timeline

[fluid saddle]

i see thx

[cobalt maple]

guys, when crafting a unique with legendary potential with an exalted item, do both items need to have same class requirement? is it possible to add class-specific affexes on a unique with another / no class requirement?

[toxic echo]

you can put class restrictive affixes on uniques, but that would make the unique also be class restricted

[shy turret]

is there an 'easiest' harbi out of the 3 90s (say for a melee character)?

[wicked plover]

age of winter, the big guy is easier to dodge, spear lady will always hit you as melee

[faint cape]

The general rule is that more build-specific stats are prefixes and more generally useful stats are suffixes. It's not a hard rule or anything, but generally that means prefixes are offensive stats, class-specific affixes, and experimental affixes, while suffixes are things more like health, armor, ward per second, resists, etc.
Hybrid affixes are just done rarely, for whatever reason they feel like, but are never common affixes.

[formal trout]

Just bought last epoch gentlemen question how is the paladin class? Is coop better?

[narrow spear]

is there a way to force a tab to be opened first when I open the stash?

[oblique geyser]

i think paladin is fun...but it gets changed with next patch in april...though no on really knows how the changes really looks like. and i think coop is mroe fun...like coop is always more fun in everything 😋

[frozen sapphire]

Manifest Armor is granted stats from the players equipped armor. If I have a piece of gear with '% increased Fire Damage'. Does Manifest Armor get that increase as well or does the affix have to state 'Minion Fire Damage'

[faint cape]

It doesn't need to say "minion" on it. All minions get affected by minion stats, the special effect of manifest armor is that you don't need the stats to be minion stats for a few select equipment slots.

[empty wedge]

Is there a way to reset controller config? I can’t move at all when I’m trying to play.

I tried the in app reset but it doesn’t do anything.

[inner mountain]

If you can't beat that fight your character isn't going to do very well in empowered monos, you'll just be slamming your head against a different wall

[surreal verge]

If you can't beat a harbinger, you're not ready for empowered.

[deep moss]

hello everyone! Can you tell me if the game has a feature for clearing the list of blocked players in the chat? the fact is that every time I log into the game, I see myself in the list of blocked players. Using the "/unblock Name" command, you can remove the lock, but only until the next time you log in to the game.

[storm wren]

I wish it's possible because... 🤷‍♀️

[Why I hate myself is nothing sometimes]

[lavish dew]

That's probably something that will be done on a case-case basis based on the power of the affixes and the set. Mike has replied on that a few times.

[lavish dew]

Like #👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs message and Mike's answers to your questions

[undone otter]

this is indeed how they were chosen - case by case basis

[storm wren]

based on Mike's answer, new question is pop out: How will set affixes influence current minion builds (include totem shaman and wraithlord necromancer)?

👀 Muffin must know the answer but he can't answer me

[undone otter]

I dont understand the question

if the set affixes you apply to a new item have to do with minions or totems etc - then they will work the same as the sets

just like any set affix

nothing special with set affixes for minon builds

[storm wren]

I mean will items required in minion builds have changes like special affixes from a few unique items replaced by set affixes from a few set items

[undone otter]

sorry I still dont understand the question - but there is nothing unique or special about the new set affixes for minion or totem builds

if they shift the minion meta - we will see after release 🙂

[storm wren]

😆 I mean will they change the difficulty for a build to be graduated

maybe the same build, I need 20h to farm this unique item because I want one of exclusive affix. But with shattering set items, I need 5h only because this set item is very common

Then most people go to use set affixes instread of farming prophecies or farming bosses

hmmmmm alright thanks for Volin and Muffin, I know why are they don't interested in my questions now 😅 No idea why are they don't understand what did I ask

[fallow geyser]

I think you mean gear progression? 🤔
So for example a wraithlord build that doesn‘t get a wraithlord early in the season can get a little more power with the new set system than before

[vale thistle]

if you're speculating that set affixes will mean you're done farming upgrades for a given slot in 5 hours instead of 20 hours, I disagree; it might be faster if you no longer need some particularly rare unique in that slot, but getting perfect exalted items is still a challenge

describing a build as "graduated" is confusing here

[storm wren]

ohhhh...
Graduated = this build is solid enough to kill aberroth (will upgrade to uber one after 1.2 is live) = this build can swim in 500+ corruption

Will it reduce farm time or increase farm time? No idea, so I need more info about set affixes

And how to forge a exalted item with set affixes

[grand shoal]

we will see

[restive epoch]

"Volin and Muffin" sound like some funny cartoon about two guys ngl

https://tenor.com/view/f1-ferrari-fantasy-f1-fantasy-f1ft-gif-26353055

[dusky kite]

no but the requirements must not be mutually exclusive, so it's either both items are for the same class, one item has class requirements and the other doesn't, or both don't

[dusky kite]

was there a lot of arguing in the dev team over this?

[dusky kite]

she's asking you about what the meta is going to look like 3 months down the road, clearly you've already got it all figured out

[undone otter]

Nah 🙂

[undone otter]

Haha there is precious little in my life I have all figured out

[lavish dew]

Anyone tested Boardman's plank Falconer(stormcarved testament to proc Storm totem)? Enraged Falcon could be pretty spicy but i dunno if it can proc on the bird

[surreal verge]

I think storm totems cannot hit allies without the 2 piece set bonus.

[lavish dew]

back to vendoring those set items then

[restive epoch]

Is there any formula/scaling for stun chance on bosses with increasing corruption or something like that?

[desert tree]

What is troubling you ?

[restive epoch]

I was wondering how much more stun chance/damage would I need for 700corr+ bosses to stunlock them 😄

[desert tree]

All depend on their HP

[surreal verge]

The easy answer is "hitting them for about 6% of their max hp from one hit."

[restive epoch]

Does it have to be a single hit or multiple hits in quick time window?

[desert tree]

Stun Chance is calculated by hit

Individually

[surreal verge]

Single hit.

[restive epoch]

So just bonk harder and ideally get stun chance on weapon together with flat/%inc damage

[lavish dew]

Melee is better for stun, in my experience Earthquake is great to stun lock due to its triple hit and high damage. Void Cleave can also consistently stun bosses although has a longer cooldown and needs more setup so it can't stunlock outside of very lucky consecutive echoes.

Although the problem with stunning bosses is they bug out a LOT with stun. Overlapping attacks, skipping animations, its super annoying.

Also it feels like they bypass stun duration or the formula just doesn't apply to them.

[desert tree]

Thats because in the Stun Formula Dmg is multiplied by 2 for Ranged, but by 3 for Melee

[lavish dew]

Best ranged stunner I've played is Avalanche but its inconsistent

[surreal verge]

The triple hit is not an “ actual” advantage if you don’t hit hard enough because stuns is calculated on a per hit basis.

[lavish dew]

I said its good for stun lock, its intervals for the 3 hits are perfect to keep bosses stunned along with its 2 sec cooldown

[surreal verge]

Ah okay that’s fair

[restive epoch]

I stun mostly from Shadow Daggers from Lethal Mirage, which is both melee and ranged... with Lirakas to have even more damage it nicer to stun, but not really enough for some 700/800c+ bosses... but good enough to sometimes permastun harbringers/few timeline bosses/skip some ABerroth's attacks

[proven pulsar]

Hello I have found a 4lp xithara's conundrum necklace, how much is it worth? there s only 3 lp in the market :/

[indigo haven]

Question, will the new update come with a full reset?

[desert tree]

Everything is Cycle/Season will be pushed to Legacy, yes
You will be able to start a fresh Season if you like

[indigo haven]

ok so if I have not played before I should probably wait until this comes out so I dont have to just start over

[desert tree]

If you want to play Season yes,
Or you could start a character in Legacy straight away

The main difference will be the economy (if you want to trade)

[indigo haven]

is legacy kind of like single player? does anyone reguarly play in there?

[desert tree]

Also Sentinel is getting a lot of changes, so if you were planning on doing one I would definitely wait

[indigo haven]

ok was looking at shamen or falconer so far

[desert tree]

Not at all, legacy is where everything get pushed over after seasons, its still multiplayer
As for player population, not quite sure

[indigo haven]

ok, thank you

[desert tree]

I know people who only plays legacy

[dusky kite]

there is little difference in playing legacy or season if you don't actively trade, i.e. you are running COF

[indigo haven]

COF?

[dusky kite]

circle of fortune, the loot faction that doesn't have auction

[mossy shadow]

@indigo haven at one point in the campaign (near the end). Sorry if this is a spoiler

You are given a choice if you want to join CoF (Circle of Fortune) or MG (Merchant guild)

TL;DR
COF = If you are a farmer that likes to farm his own loot
MG = if u like trading with other player

[indigo haven]

ok thank you for that info

[quick crown]

i am one of those people who only play legacy realm in Last Epoch, and im COF, i will probably keep being Legacy only until new content starts to become season only (if it ever does) as right now, unless you play with the auction house faction, there is not really any incentive (for me) to start fresh every season

[quick crown]

anyone know why parts of the ground in some places looks blurry? i have all settings on ULTRA and it still looks this way

[unique marten]

Any tips for transitioning to empowered monoliths? The level 90 monoliths are easy enough for me, but the empowered ones at 100 corruption just wreck me.

[oblique geyser]

resistances maybe?

or some sort of healing, life leech? like what char and build do you play?

[unique marten]

I have a smite paladin. Smite heals really well, I just tend to get oneshot by things.

[dusky kite]

you are getting oneshot -> get more hp

[narrow spear]

make sure yo have a way of mitigating critical damage

either by getting 100% less extra dmg from critical strikes or 100% critical strike avoidance

[shut walrus]

so what do we see coming in Tombs of the Erased? endgame change or changes to the campaign or what?

[outer mango]

did you miss all the trailers and teasers

[slow eagle]

How much max hp are you at

For a life build id recommend 2000-2500 hp at the least

[desert tree]

Hello there fellow

[slow eagle]

How’s thine void filled day Mr

[cedar locust]

A lot

Launch Trailer : Tombs of the Erased

[vestal yew]

does cast speed affect the number of damage ticks per second for the disintegrate skill?

[desert tree]

No

Only how fast you start channeling

[vestal yew]

i see, thanks

[shut walrus]

I just watched. This is amazing. I think Last Epoch will be my game over poe2

[unique marten]

oh damn, I'm way low. Like, 1100.

[surreal verge]

I'm surprised you survived lagon with that amount of hp.

[knotty tinsel]

It's a tale as old as time, you're not the first or the last

"Why did the boss oneshot me? my resistances are capped!" [HP is 731]

[slow eagle]

My recommendation is to get body armor with flat hp and % increased hp on it.

Crafting these to T5 works, if you find an exalted one of these craft on that

For maximum health gain it’s vitality, flat hp, % increased hp on your body armor

Like this added 700 ish max health to one of my vks

[shut walrus]

what health should I look for on my shatter strike spellblade? I keep getting 1 hit with maxed res

and im at 1100 health

[slow eagle]

How much ward do you sustain while smacking stuff

[shut walrus]

2000-2200 around there

im also in offline mode

i cant do the prophecies because they are too hard

[slow eagle]

I’m gonna ask @icy drift if he can provide some help cause I’ve played spellblade like once 3 years ago

[icy drift]

What's up

[slow eagle]

Big Mike needs some spellblade help

[icy drift]

Oh lmao I get one shot too

[knotty tinsel]

spellblade defences will never feel super no matter how hard you try

[icy drift]

You can build more hp to not get one shot

[knotty tinsel]

you can embrace the ZHP lifestyle or just overinvest to compensate

[slow eagle]

Damn

[icy drift]

More hp, new gloves once they're out

If you get to like 3000 hp you'll be in a better place

[slow eagle]

Wasn’t sure if spellblade had a trick for a ton of ward

[icy drift]

There's no real way to generate lots of ward outside of something like vessel of strife or on hit, and on hit isn't reliable enough in echoes

[shut walrus]

what do you recommend i get my ward to?

[icy drift]

Nah not really. You can use third eye rings or the set rings but both are on hit

[slow eagle]

Darn

[icy drift]

Honestly 2k is already decent

What's your hp at?

Leech is your friend

But you need hp to let it work

[shut walrus]

1100 but tbh im new to the game

im at 137 corruption and i cant beat the harbinger at that

[icy drift]

Yeah try to get that up. Get hp on your chest, belt, gloves and boots wherever possible

[cedar locust]

"Does your 4 digit HP start with 1?"

^^ That's me, every time 😅

[icy drift]

Armour and dodge is also pretty good if you can get a decent amount of either one

[slow eagle]

Ok yeah if you need hp fast get body armor with vitality, flat hp and % hp

[shut walrus]

i also have the body armour for crit avoidance

[icy drift]

I'll warn you though, you'll never be "tanky" , you might just escape being literal paper

But you won't be a walking tank ever

[slow eagle]

Spellblades main defense is outputting stupid amounts of damage before they smack you

[icy drift]

Yep

[shut walrus]

so spellblade is just not one of the better classes?

[icy drift]

It's okay but not top tier correct

At least currently

[shut walrus]

what gear should i get health leech on?

[slow eagle]

It’s like a solid B or A tier

You can do stupid stuff like pen nib and output billions of damage per second

[slow eagle]

I think that only shows up on weapons or gloves

[icy drift]

There's a lot of places to get leech from. Personally I get it on a unique ring called siphon of anguish

[shut walrus]

i have it on my amulet though

i was just wondering

[slow eagle]

Are you running bleeding heart

[shut walrus]

yes

[slow eagle]

Actually import your character into LE tools and share the build

[icy drift]

Bleeding heart is fine

[slow eagle]

That would make this a lot easier

[icy drift]

At least early game

[shut walrus]

how do i do offline mode into le tools?

[slow eagle]

When you click import it tells you how to do it

[shut walrus]

okay

i will do this in a bit im a bit busy right now

[slow eagle]

Take ya time

[shut walrus]

ok so when i log into last epoch what do i do to import my build

doing it now

[slow eagle]

Yeah since it’s offline is a lil harder but it is just find the correct character file

Then once it’s uploaded + in LE tools, use the builders share button for the link

[shut walrus]

could u call me and teach me how to do that

[slow eagle]

Plus you can make an account and save it

? The instructions should be there

[shut walrus]

im trying to find my character file

[slow eagle]

oh

do you have steam cloud sync turned on?

[shut walrus]

yes

[slow eagle]

it should just be this path then

[grand shoal]

just 🤭

[slow eagle]

🦀

I'm a computer scientist I'm used to file paths that are like 30 times longer

[grand shoal]

Yeah, and me from a time where such savegames have been not more then 3 steps from C:\ 🙂

[cedar locust]

@shut walrus If you can't see that folder, you'll need to make sure 'See Hidden Folders' in turned on!

[slow eagle]

I do miss those days

[grand shoal]

Sometimes yes, sometimes not. But yeah, I guess I share the feeling

[slow eagle]

more so the nice fact of files not being in a labyrinth of folders

I wish my co-workers would stop making 50000 folders a day

;-;

[devout nova]

Hey all, I dont know if this is a known bug. Yesterday for some reason suddenly the chat stopped working. I can Type in the chat (it is not disabled), but when i hit enter nothing happens. Is this known? is there a known workaround? i tried to reinstall game but it did not work

[slow eagle]

did you turn off the channels?

can we turn off channels in LE?

[desert tree]

Self block

[cedar locust]

Known, and a fix is ready for S2 - go check your 'Blocked' list by pressing H to open the social panel. If you see your name there, please use /unblock in the in game chat followed by your name

[slow eagle]

you can still do that

[devout nova]

wow yes i see my own name in the blocked list. so weird, how did it end up there? I used unblock and now it works. Thanks SO Much for the help, much appreciated!

[cedar locust]

We're not sure, we have a fix for the S2 update, though this might happen again on relaunch - now you know how to fix it.

[devout nova]

yup, known workaround is great. i had a pal who sent me a few DMs yesterday, i guess he thought me rude for never replying 😛 thanks again have a continued great day/evening! greetings from Oslo, Norway

[slow eagle]

Yay self block is getting fixed

[cedar locust]

I just added a 'Known Issues' post for this 😅 - https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1351233494466039969

[halcyon harness]

Is anyone having issues with random consistent game freezes and crashing to desktop? I submitted a ticket on this with my two requested log files, but the game is unplayable for me. The first week when I played, the start of March, it played just fine, now it crashes constantly. My PC is above specs, temps are fine, drivers are updated, I do not understand.

[primal path]

when is the game going on sale again?

[quaint patio]

Few questions on grouping. 1. If you are grouped I do believe you can trade to each other.. Does the guild choice of merchant/fortune stop this?.. Can two Fortunes trade to each other if they are grouped and if I recall from when I played when the game came out isn't there like a item or something to atune you to a friend?? I am intending to play a bit before this new season and when it launches and we are wanting to group together.. 2. do you share loot drops or do you have your own loot drops.

[dusky kite]

1 - no
2 - yes
3 - the resonance is used to gift items that you weren't both present for
4 - individual drops for everybody in party

[toxic echo]

there is no public knowledge of a sale

[primal path]

i dont wanna regret buying it now and then seeing a sale 1 week later

[shut walrus]

well I would like to say that I got my best moneys worth on Last Epoch than POE2 or Diablo 4

[primal path]

as of now i play poe 1 and 2

last epoch is looking pretty nice to play these days so want to try

[candid elm]

Season 2 launches April 2nd

[vale thistle]

LE generally does sales in december (steam winter sale) and july (steam summer sale), with a few exceptions

[primal path]

yeah thats the thing that got me interested

[vale thistle]

I wouldn't expect a sale until july 2025 personally

[quaint patio]

Thanks! So no trading if grouped, the merchaunt/fortunes can't trade and a resonance is used to gift items.. Is the resonance restricted in use between the factions? Example : We are both Fortune and a item drops that is for his build, can I resonance it to him or will the faction stop it from working?

[toxic echo]

i hear ya...but again, there are no sales publically known. its the same gamble you take on buying anything in life.

[surreal verge]

You can gift drops that happened in the same instance while in the same party. Resonance is part of the gifting system which ignores the faction system. (But still respects it. A CoF drop that is gifted still will have CoF rank requirements.)

[cedar locust]

Our last update was 02/27, so it might be related to something that has updated since then - have any other programs updated?

[quaint patio]

Oh sweet! If I recall the gearing also has faction restrictions on them as well so we'd both want to be the same faction. Thanks for the answers.

[halcyon harness]

I have not had issues with any other program, not sure on other updates. For Last Epoch, you said update 2/27. I started playing on 3/1 with no issues for about a week. It never crashed. Then suddenly it started with consistent crashes every time I played a session, this happened for about 4 days. Then after waiting a couple of days, I played for one full day with no issues, and now it is back to consistent crashes. The game will be working fine, and just freeze and crash to desktop.

[slow eagle]

VPN?

Do you have other demanding stuff running on your pc?

[halcyon harness]

No VPN, I am in Vegas and connect to the west server, its consistently at 19 to 22. No other programs running, besides the normal windows services and such.

[cedar locust]

Have you verified your game file in Steam recently?

Advice I gave another player who had was this - If the crashes continue, you can check Event Viewer in Windows to see if there is any useful information there. Another useful place to check is Task Manager and look for a program called UnityCrashHandler, contrary to it's name, this program can cause further crashes.

[slow eagle]

Unity crash handler is a lil silly sometimes

[halcyon harness]

Yes, I performed a complete file check in steam yesterday and today. Reliability History on the crash says this: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH
Application Name: Last Epoch.exe
Application Version: 2021.3.42.6520
Application Timestamp: 66a9df4f
Fault Module Name: UnityPlayer.dll
Fault Module Version: 2021.3.42.6520

Exception Code: c0000005
Exception Offset: 0000000000ea1a2b
OS Version: 10.0.26100.2.0.0.256.48

[cedar locust]

Are the crashes happening in one location in game or several?

[weary tulip]

pardon me if this has been asked before, which it 100% has, but idk what to search for, how are stash tabs and faction merged into permanent league, once a season is over?? since stash tabs have progressive price changes, and for factions, you are supposed to be locked to 1?

[halcyon harness]

They happen anywhere and everywhere. I can be in a town and stand there, or open inventory. Or in the middle of a battle. Or after fast traveling.

[cedar locust]

Are you keeping an eye on your RAM usage while playing?

Exception Code: c0000005 is a generic "memory access violation" code - this can be anything from a memory leak or faulty RAM

[surreal verge]

Season tabs become remove-only tabs.
Faction ranks get merged and you keep the highest rank. You can have ranks in both factions at the same time, but only one will be active per char.

[weary tulip]

so do i need to seperately unlock stash tabs in permanent league?

and if i have say max rank in merchants guild on permanent league, and finish a season on circle of fortune max rank, i get both at max rank and can switch between them?

[surreal verge]

You do. The seasonal tabs will stay remove only until you move all the items out of it though, and is seperate from permanent league's tabs.

[surreal verge]

Yes, at the cost of losing all favor (Faction currency) on switch.

[weary tulip]

thanks for the clarification

[halcyon harness]

I have 48GB ram. I just launched the game and played until it crashed. My RAM usage never went above 35%

[outer mango]

48gb sounds weird amount, usually its 8/16/32/64

[cedar locust]

In Game Bug Reports are going to be the most helpful to the team here.

Though are you AMD or Nvidia?

[halcyon harness]

Its 2 sticks of 24gb for 48 total. Not weird.

[halcyon harness]

Yeah, I submitted the two logs requested with the ticket. It is a Nvidia RTX 3080.

[outer mango]

Ah right new ddr5 thing

[cedar locust]

It would not be the first time Nvidia drivers have caused an issue similar to this, and there has been a rise in issues since Nvidia swapped to Nvidia App from GE Force Now.

The first thing to check is are those drivers up to date and if so, does rolling them back fix the LE crash? A new driver was released on March 5th, 572.70.

Second thing to check with Nvidia, is see if any of the 'upscaling' options are applying to Last Epoch, it's best to use the in game Settings to adjust your game than allow 3rd party tools to 'optimise' it.

[halcyon harness]

Thanks for the help. I will play around with settings. I updated to the new driver today. And I was using the previous version prior, crashes with both. Not sure about any driver prior to the last two. I do use the app to update, I can download drivers directly if that is an issue.

[cedar locust]

Nvidia drivers work perfectly for some but are a nightmare for others, I personally re-check every single setting option for my games in the Nvidia App whenever a new driver update comes out. Excessive? Yes. Have I found and corrected things that have been changed without my permission? Also yes.

[halcyon harness]

Thanks, I will see if I can get it to fix my issue there in settings.

[shut walrus]

is this a good weapon for shatter strike on a spellblade?

[last kayak]

For a very specific build, yes

The idea is basically to stack as much health regen as possible, dual wield that sword and do crazy damage

[shut walrus]

because my guide is telling me to use this

but i thought the unique would do better because it has higher stats except the +14 melee damage instead of 40

not the unique the set item

[last kayak]

It really depends on the state of your build, if your crit isn't maxed out, the shattered lance is probably better. Usually guides are hyperoptimized to max everything out but that's not realistic while you're following them.

A perfectly rolled crystal sword like that is going to be better than the set piece unless you're building into the set specifically in the endgame. But the set sword will be better if you don't have good rolls on the implicit and the right affixes on a crystal sword

[shut walrus]

ah okay thanks

like a perfectly rolled crystal sword is a lot more expensive than the set piece in merchants guild?

so I can do that until i get my build going

[last kayak]

Presumably yeah, set pieces are usually super cheap. I have no idea what the market looks like though

[halcyon harness]

Would just uninstalling the Nvidia app solve some of those issues? Or is turning optimization for the game OFF enough?

[vale thistle]

the nvidia app's idea of optimization is terrible TBH, it's like letting a stranger come into your house and randomly change everything

thermostat? oh we'll crank that way up
doors? leave them all open
kitchen? turn everything on
lights? let's get rid of every other light bulb
optimization complete, enjoy your house

[dusky kite]

this exalt as listed on this screenshot is significantly better as long as you are not using the 2-set, since it has similar flat but also 44% crit multi, 14% aspeed, and 12% pen. Deicide proc is like nice to have in monos but not relevant on bosses which is where most builds need the most help

[dusky kite]

I imagine most sets cost nothing right now but with the changes in 1.2 they might become competitive on price

[shut walrus]

so it's not worth using? I'm running 150 corruption right now and my damage is good just my defense is terrible

[dusky kite]

it's real simple, if you have a better weapon, use a better weapon. If you don't, use this

[shut walrus]

ah okay

so even if I stacked health regen all the way it would still not be great?

[tranquil obsidian]

to an extent. regen is great for build with minions or low attack speed, else better going with leech either from passives or equipment.
The main problem is preventing one shots
endurance + crit evasion/crit reduction + enough health

[shut walrus]

im talking about health regen for shard of the shattered lance being dual weapon

[tranquil obsidian]

at 150 corruption a melee build can survive all but the telegraphed hits with just 2.5K health and crit prevention and capped resistances

[shut walrus]

ohhh

so how much endurance should I get if I want to progress corruption?

[slow eagle]

typically you just cap endurance % and use it as one shot protection

[shut walrus]

so 100%?

[slow eagle]

raisng your endurance threshold without a passive tree node with %of max health as endurance threshold is hard

[slow eagle]

it caps at 60%

[shut walrus]

oh okay

[slow eagle]

also

[shut walrus]

yeah ive been dying to 150 corruption harbinger because i kept getting one shot.

so as a spellblade how do i get endurance?

[desert tree]

On gear

[shut walrus]

so i should get gear with endurance and health on it?

because my health is really low too

[slow eagle]

you can get endurance % on gloves, helmet, shield, belt, rings and relics

[shut walrus]

nice

[slow eagle]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/suffixes/AAwTgTEA

if you want to see the roll ranges based on which gear it is

[shut walrus]

thanks

i love the community for last epoch

very helpful

[hushed skiff]

I wish to play through LE from the start right now. Should I start in the one that allows trading or the one that doesn't allow trading? I forgot the name of those things.

[last kayak]

You won't choose it until almost the end of the campaign, but I'd recommend Circle of Fortune (non-trading) since lots of people are waiting for 1.2 to drop

[gleaming salmon]

Will my stash tabs reset with the new season?

[toxic echo]

Season yes, legacy no

[storm wren]

hhhhhhh GGG give free influence/promotion to EHG this time

[gleaming salmon]

too bad, I'd love to keep the structure I spent time working on

[toxic echo]

Yeah. Its been suggested a few times

[gleaming salmon]

I'd pay for it easy if it was an option

[storm wren]

The turn for EHG to be hot.

Wait the day that le's trailer can break this reord from GGG

[wide sentinel]

soon

[storm wren]

🤣 🤭 Excited to see

talk on video views, do youtube count times I watched if I loop the video?

to be honest, the helmet remind me of tang monk immediately after I saw that on Mike's weekly stream for the first time

it's why I feel the character looks quite odd

Ah, thx

Wasnt there a dummy at end time before?

what happened to it?

[toxic anchor]

Removed. I think it might have been in the multiplayer patch

There are still dummies at the arena

[knotty tinsel]

letting characters use their spells with other non-partied players near was probably a technical nightmare, so they turned every town into a true "hub" area

I do miss teleporting around the place a little bit

[strange parcel]

And does anyone know how to re-bind the Attack without moving key? Its shift for me rn, but I dont see it anywhere in change imput keys?

[faint cape]

Not sure, but are you using the "move & attack" thing? If not, then just disable the move to range option and then attack without moving is just always on basically

[cobalt maple]

Hi everyone, wanted to ask if its possible to, while being affiliated with CoF faction, get non CoF-locked gear so i could keep wearing it on a high level character to rank up Merchants faster
Or is there literally no point to start with a faction im not intending to stay on

[faint cape]

I wouldn't recommend planning to swap factions, unless you just want to level both of them for fun.
Your base item drops get an Untradeable tag instead of a CoF tag if no CoF faction bonuses generated or triggered on them. Untradeable items can be worn by MG players, but cannot be traded on the Bazaar.

[last kayak]

But items that require faction rank won't be able to be equipped when you swap factions won't they?

[proud prawn]

it's possbile

not recommended

[cobalt maple]

so basically if i get a "stronger" item due to CoF i could still keep wearing it after switching to MG or not really?

[proud prawn]

stronger or not doesnt matter

[cobalt maple]

ok perfect example, if an item drops due to CoF rank 1 bonus, will it be marked as CoF?

[proud prawn]

if an item has COF rank requirement(dropped due to COF's bonus or prophecy) you cannot wear it while in MG

[proud prawn]

yes

[cobalt maple]

fun balanced out of the game as usual i see

[vale thistle]

if CoF items weren't tagged that way the optimal way to play would be farming as CoF and then selling everything on a MG alt, which is giga toxic gameplay

[proud prawn]

if that's the case there would be zero point to split into 2 factions in the first place

[vale thistle]

making the extra/improved loot you get as a result of CoF bonuses restricted to that faction was the only sane solution

[faint cape]

Yeah, the fun comes from being able to actually pick non-trade if you want to without hamstringing yourself

[proud prawn]

how can it be fun if i cannot game the system

everytime kekw

[oblique geyser]

is there a way to increase chances to find uniques with 4lp or is it just lots of inhuman luck?

[vale thistle]

farm high corruption as CoF and get lucky

[proud prawn]

run high corruption monolith

focus on eggs

dont set your expectation too high

[oblique geyser]

eggs from nemesis you mean? and how high corruption are we talking? 😇

[proud prawn]

as high as you can handle obviously

[oblique geyser]

i was hoping for something like...if you do x amount of corruption, you have a decent chance or 10% at eggs or something 😇

[vale thistle]

nobody can answer a question like that because it's too vague and relies on information only EHG knows about loot scaling

[proud prawn]

you can kinda do

[hexed wasp]

Have you heard about the gamers lord and saviour RNGesus, I heard praying to him helps

[proud prawn]

but if i tell you

if you run 2 billions echoes with 90% of 1 eggs each map, you'd get 25% chance to get a 4LP red ring

would that make you happier

😂

[oblique geyser]

i just want it so bad because its best ...on the other side...i will never get it because its best and im too casual for that 😅

[vale thistle]

that number seems way too low for 4LP red ring

it would definitely take more than 2 billion echoes

[proud prawn]

yeah and does it make you happier

😁

[oblique geyser]

thats a lot..i can do like 1 echo in 5min or so i guess...cant you tell a lower number then? 😏

[vale thistle]

I got a 4LP.. Harthenon's Vow.. during the campaign a while back, so clearly you should just farm the campaign!! (don't actually do this)

[oblique geyser]

that reminds me...i do have found a 3lp unique.... now i guess that is already insanely lucky? 🤷‍♀️

[buoyant sinew]

depends. LP chances are set individually for each unique, it's never super common to get 3 but it can range from not that crazy to almost literally impossible depending on the unique

[oblique geyser]

that is interesting

[blazing glacier]

tru - pls don't turn LE into every other ARPG where trade is the only real way to play the game EHG, ty ❤️

[granite ether]

Can I use an ascension rune to get a unique that only comes from certain epoch monoliths? If so do I need to have access to those monoliths first before I could roll those uniques?

[proud prawn]

if you're talking about boss drops then no

[blazing glacier]

I assume you are talking about

"Timeline to target farm: Reign of Dragons ("Unique or Set Sword or Dagger" echo rewards)" shown on the wiki site?

[granite ether]

Yes

[blazing glacier]

yea that's misleading, that text basically means nothing

they are fully random drops

you can Rune of Ascend them, drop them anywhere, etc

[granite ether]

Thank you

[shut walrus]

what pieces of gear have + to health regen

I need to stack it for my shard of the broken lance

[vale thistle]

+flat health regen: helmet, amulet, gloves
%increased health regen: idols, helmet, body armour, belt, gloves, rings, relic

[shut walrus]

how do i get the + to regen for this sword

im only getting this affix

when im searching the bizarre

[jagged nimbus]

Just so im sure the lich scorn can drop in normal mono?

[shut walrus]

hey

[vale thistle]

I always play CoF so I have no idea how the bazaar works

[shut walrus]

i want to know how to get this affix

ive tried and cant seem to get it on any other gear other than that unique sword

set sword*

[vale thistle]

my guess would be you're searching for the wrong affix (as in, you're looking for the affix that only exists on that sword)

but again idk for sure, never played MG

[shut walrus]

this is all it shows for health recovery

[faint cape]

It's the one you don't have checkmarked

[shut walrus]

oh right

lol

sorry i think im sleep deprived

[faint cape]

It's been a long few weeks lol

[shut walrus]

oh im just wondering

the sword I showed earlier says +10 health regen

not +10 health regen per second

if i get per second it will still buff up my damage right

[last kayak]

They're the same thing

+10 health regen
+10 health regen per second

will both give you a FLAT 10 health regen, which is then scaled by things that do +% increased health regen.

Both are important if you're looking to scale up the Shattered Lance set as high as possible

[shut walrus]

ah okay

thanks 🙂

[last kayak]

np

[shut walrus]

thats what im going to do until i can afford better weapons for crit

whats the fastest way to rank up in the bizarre?

[faint cape]

It's tied to xp, so just doing the highest level stuff you can comfortably do is generally going to give you xp fastest. Spending favor (by buying or listing items) will rank you up, too - favor is gained from xp as well.

[obtuse moat]

hey folks apparently friends showing offline when they're actually online is a known issue - any fixes so we can actually do multiplayer...?

nvm i sent a direct invite to party and it works that way 🤷‍♀️

[faint cape]

I think I might have heard they are redoing the chat system again, which might fix that in S2. It's pretty janky right now though.

[wary sierra]

when and what time new season happening? I know it is 2 April but at what clock time?

[shut walrus]

how do i get to the time rift in the shining cove?

[faint cape]

11:00 am CDT

[faint cape]

You have to backtrack to it once you get the quest in The Oracle's Abode

[wary sierra]

oh so I can only play at 3 april at my time, ok thanks

[shut walrus]

is there any quest to do in the verdant lakes time rift? it's not showing up

[night bluff]

Is it just me or do some of the 3D models not look like the item picture at all?

[faint cape]

No, that one you can freely access. It's just to the right of the waypoint (rust lands?) in the Imperial Era.

[desert tree]

Not every uniques have a 3d model

[slow eagle]

EHG is working on getting unique models for each unique

but that sadly is hard to have as a top priority dev time wise

when new content also needs art

[narrow spear]

is there a way to farm skill shards I'm missing? I'm trying to get +max ballista shards to craft a chest and eventually transfer the skill on a legendary.
I got the increased skill shard droprate blessing and I get only body armor prophecies, but so far the rate at which I get them seems abysmal

[vale thistle]

add them to your loot filter and pick up items with that affix to shatter

[static root]

What i do for those rare afixxes is show on filter when x+ tiers of rare afixes are present on item and then rune of removal/ shatter those

[narrow spear]

thats what I'm doing. the drop rate of these items is abysmal still

I think I found 3 items so far and I'm past aberroth

If I'm not missing anything then thats okay. Was just wondering

[vale thistle]

it's rare but not that rare, you should definitely have more than 3 by that point

have you tested your loot filter to make sure it's actually showing all items with that affix?

[narrow spear]

yes

[restive epoch]

Some affixes just drop not so often... check vendor, sometimes there are nice affixes to buy and remove/shatter... prophecies for exalted gear is a good option, if you have CoF rank, rare gear prophecies too (25% chance for rare item to be upgraded to exalted)

[narrow spear]

yeah I'm putting all my favor into chest prophecies atm

I get a bunch of the other rogue skills, like falconry, dive bomb, etc etc

just ballista seems super rare

Try downloading the latest Nvidia Drivers from their site and not through the App, another player just reported this fixed their recent crash issues.

[quasi cargo]

Does anyone know how this node and Orian's Eye interact?

[forest field]

Using steam lately I have been getting a lot of "corrupted or missing data" when loading the game. Then when I load the game all my characters are naked. If I verify integrity of the game files it will work again for a few days. But its happening quite frequently. Should I uninstall and reinstall the game?

[quasi cargo]

worth a shot

[cedar locust]

A fresh re-install is worth trying however, can I ask do you have an Nvidia card?

[forest field]

I do!

RTX

[cedar locust]

Go and do a clean install of your drivers from their site, not through the Nvidia App - that might help

[faint cape]

They don't interact, can't convert twice so they just each do their own conversion

[quasi cargo]

thanks!

[winged crown]

Does CoF rank 10 (150% boss drop) affect exalted mages?

[cedar locust]

They're tagged as a Boss so I believe so!

[grand shoal]

But I have never seen any of the exile uniques twice the same time, are you sure?

Usually the CoF r10 leads to a double or tripple drop after some time

[cedar locust]

This was Mike confirming that Nemeses - unlike Exiled Mages - are not affected by Rank 10, so I wonder if there is an exception for Experimental items 🤔 I'mma dig

[grand shoal]

Experimentals are not unique, so not cof r10?

[faint cape]

I think just the one specifically exiled mage rank bonus affects the experimental drops. Not sure if the 2.5x drops even applies to the actual uniques or not.

[cedar locust]

Rank 7 - Exiled Mages drop twice as many experimental items. @winged crown

I have still asked the team for clarification just in case though

[winged crown]

Thanks a lot all, glad I asked 😄

[chilly matrix]

more loot is always welcome

[knotty vessel]

Do we have any information or a screenshot cycling around of the heartseeker throwing skill trigger helmet thing ?

[cedar locust]

Someone snagged and typed out all the info for the Uniques and Champion Affixes in this Reddit thread - https://www.reddit.com/r/LastEpoch/comments/1j00bx4/new_uniques_and_champion_affixes_from_the_trailer/

[grand shoal]

Ye, but that was not the question.
R7 works for sure as intended.

I reffered to the original question.

[cedar locust]

I asked the team if Rank 10 is supposed to apply as Rank 10 says 'Boss specific items' not 'Boss specific Uniques', hopefully I can get answer today 😁

[earnest garden]

The helmet picture has been transcribed much better than that original Reddit article in the rogue channel here

#🔪┃rogue message

[grand shoal]

I assumed uniques, you're right.
But those dropping double or even tripple would have been the easiest confirmation. And Mages have at least two that are specific to those

[tribal meadow]

Does anyone have screenshosts of the Woven Echo tooltip? It said something like "Putting this on the Weaver altar will give you +1 point in the Weaver skill tree"? 🙏

[dreamy blade]

i somehow managed to remove my full UI

[tribal meadow]

Backspace or Delete?

[dreamy blade]

thanks, was delete.

[tribal meadow]

🙏

[faint cape]

On mobile so no screenshots, but pretty sure each one gives you +1 point upon initial completion (maybe higher tier ones give more than 1? no sure). Kinda like completing your unique maps in PoE.

Considering one of the woven echoes is uber aberroth though, it's safe to say it'll be tough to complete them all

[tribal meadow]

45 points in Woven echoes + 14 from faction

59 points

If the last tier of Woven echoes is 2 points then it's nice and round 70 points

60-70 point Weaver skill tree

👀

[dusky kite]

well mike said that the closest comparison to the weaver tree is the mono web

[tribal meadow]

Care to explain 🧐

[dusky kite]

looks like some form of targeted farming as these look like slots to put items into

[faint cape]

We don't know yet exactly what those do, but we of course have guesses. Up/right from your bottom/left red circle is a slotted woven echo, too, I think.

Hopefully we'll find a lot out about the tree this Friday since its topic is itemization

[tribal meadow]

Bruh, two types of slots on a skill tree is perverse, this should be illegal

[faint cape]

They are all item slots

Presumably

Wait a sec, they're all the same icon connected to the item slot

'I have to wait 2 more weeks now

[wide sentinel]

the worst part that ehg wont even release patchnotes earlier so doubt we will get them even week earlier and as always 2 days before patch

maybe im too doomer

[toxic echo]

🤷‍♂️ why would they put patch notes out early and then just not work on the game for 2 more weeks

now they get ot fit 2 more weeks of changes and bug fixes in

tho, i do get the sentiment of people now liking the delay

[wide sentinel]

well due to mike slip up we already know they are working on 1.3 and they can do bugfixing/polishing performance which little has to do with patchnotes

idk 2 days before patch was always a letdown imo

[lavish dew]

They could put out initial patch notes and let LEtools update so ppl can theorycraft with the changes and then final patch notes just before. Or just update the patch notes post on release.

[toxic echo]

yeah. 2 days is short. i still expected friday tho. idk.

i mean yeah they are working on 1.3 stuff...and they have stuff planned for 1.4. they got stuff planned for a while

its not like they wait until the current season is done before they start working and thinking about future patches

[surreal verge]

LETools iirc gets the stuff somewhat early, but the data isn't pushed to live until mantainence starts for LE. (This is what happened in 1.1)

[toxic echo]

yeah they cant exactly go out andbreak NDA anyways.

up to EHG if they want that stuff out earlier, but i still wouldnt expect anything until within the last week anyways

[candid elm]

I guess PoE2 update 0.2 is on April 4th and they understandably didn't want to compete with it. I'm personally fine with it. Couple weeks after a major update on games like this is often enough time for people to want to try something else, so it's good for LE.

[last kayak]

Yeah, sad for the delay, but understandable why it happened.

[quartz iris]

anyone got lost connection in Asia SE?

[tribal meadow]

Let's hope that GGG doesn't have to delay as well

[old hare]

Does importing a loot filter and using it cause anyone's game ui to have hitches? I used one of Dammitt's filters from letools to base off of, and as I soon as I imported it everything was delayed. Opening stash, talking to npcs, opening the forge, etc. Disabling it fixes it

[cedar locust]

The team is looking into it!

[crystal jackal]

Has there been any mention of viability of holy trail javelin after the rework?

[last kayak]

No mention but the new electrify node is spicy

[lavish dew]

Not really but the new Paladin node they teased gives more lightning damage over time per crit multi and holy trail is half lightning so it would help scale it (although boosting only half your damage seems pretty suboptimal) if there's a way to get flat lightning spell damage (rather than flat adaptive dmg) it could be good. Sadly there isn't any as of now (even Judicator spear is flat fire rather than lightning)

[west pollen]

anyone know how to stop my cursor changing screen when playing LE

[faint cape]

I think there is a lightning wand, but that on its own is not really ideal.

[lavish dew]

Tribolectra? nah its adaptive edit: ah no wait you mean coral wand, yeah that would work but its even less than a base crystal/dragonhorn

[faint cape]

No, just a base

Yeah, it's a bit low. I don't remember how much, but if it's more than half of endgame wands, then it's kinda a win lol

[candid elm]

Setting the game to full screen instead of borderless should that care of that. Or you can see if there's a lock cursor option in the settings.

[lavish dew]

if there's easy crit multi available somewhere in paladin (global crit multi not spell specific) then maybe it'll be worth. Else mostly worse than just going with a high adaptive dmg weapon and stacking eledot

[west pollen]

yea its on full screen adn i could find lock cursor in the game it doesnt do it in any other games

couldnt*

@drowsy hornet responding to #👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs message, Idol affixes are probably going to buff every build, so we have to get an idea what those look like before we know how much any specific build is going to be buffed by them. But it should be a power boost no matter what the build.

[vocal plank]

Other than ward on kill, is there an easy source of ward on rogue

[toxic echo]

cleaver solution and str stack to get int. theres also some shroud stuff you can get. some other uniques as well

[vocal plank]

Yea I'm tracking Silver Shroud. I'm just curious if there is a consistant way of doing it.

Because one requires you to get hit and I'm wondering if there is a way for a marksman to do it without being hit.
It's an idea I have with Phase Point and since ward is being changed I'm wondering if throwing a Wall of Nothing into the build then getting some form of ward would be useful to basically make me immortal
Maybe Vessel of Strife. 🤔

[toxic echo]

its likely better to ask down in #🔪┃rogue if you havent...a lot more expert types down there.

would anyone be willing to level me from 32-50, happy to repay the favor back when ever you need it aswell

[toxic echo]

prolly better in #👥┃lfg

[desert tree]

@robust hawk I dont know if you know about tunklabs

https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/

[robust hawk]

I am not aware! Let me go check it out

oh that's very spicy, I like this

[desert tree]

This one and Letools are my go to

[robust hawk]

Thank you! I only knew about LE Tools

This will help me theorycraft the worst builds immaginable 🙂

hyper armour stack Spellblade here we come

[desert tree]

And about the official le wiki

It's completely out of date

Hasn't been update for years (when I started playing in 0.8.3 it was already out)

[robust hawk]

I don't remember when I found LE, but I know it was off of a reddit post somewhere recommending it. We didn't have a lot. I remember the first big patch they added the relic bases like living seeds and the like

And yeah that's ... slightly abysmal hahaha, very happy for community tools. In EHG's defense I don't even keep my code well doc'd, let alone external documentation so I will never be the first to throw that stone 😛

[faint cape]

Yeah, the existence of LE Tools and TunkLab mostly renders a wiki redundant. Though neither of them really has the long form explanatory info or photos like a wiki should have

[carmine mortar]

Did they say anywhere if favour gain was being adjusted? About how long is it to get to level 12 CoF?

[faint cape]

They haven't mentioned favor gain adjustments. I don't know when your point of reference is, but they lowered the total amount of reputation/favor you need to max rank by about 34% in 1.1.7.6 and reduced favor costs across the board, which pretty much has the effect of increasing favor gains. So, if you are used to factions at 1.0 or 1.1, it'll be a good bit faster.

(they made it faster in 1.1 as well, so if you're used to 1.0, it'll be significantly faster)

[carmine mortar]

That’s good I haven’t got to play since September I remember it taking a bit to long for my tastes

[robust hawk]

dumb question, what's the base # of stacks for Firebrand? I don't see it listed

[candid elm]

Huh, interesting, I don't see it in with Positive Ailments. You often find them in here https://www.lastepochtools.com/ailments/

Anyway, looks like it's 1 stack by default, unless you take the Conflagrate passive. And 4 max stacks, unless you take passives like Wildfire and Ardent Branding. And each stack lasts 4 seconds, unless you take Everflames passive, which lets you refresh the duration.

[robust hawk]

Yeah I had checked tools and tunklab, my assumption was 3 base due to the Flame Reave node being available without taking +stacks

[bronze ocean]

It's 4 judging by the code

[last kayak]

Yeah, it's 4, I was messing with it the other day

I've always thought it should be 5 though. Capping out at 9 stacks feels weird

[mortal seal]

What are some minimum requirements you guys would recommend for the harbingers as far as stats?

[hushed skiff]

Can we buy supporter packs with points?

[storm wren]

🤔 good question

[drowsy ridge]

hey guys, I did some searching but couldn't find anything recent (<1 year). Is it possible to do a group found scenario with friends and trade items if we are CoF or is it still limited to resonance if we find an item while a friend is offline?

[merry torrent]

It's still limited to resonance or loot you found together

[drowsy ridge]

ty

[storm wren]

not support that yet

[atomic cliff]

Someone now which time the Season will start ? The Date is April 17 but i Need the time 😂

[desert tree]

<t:1744905600:F>

[static root]

I love that it starts at 18:00 here in amsterdam time

[desert tree]

Same here in France

[knotty tinsel]

what's with the thursday launches all of a sudden 😵‍💫

[cobalt quest]

how much uncapped resists should i build? can mobs still shred up to 75%?

[surreal verge]

Going over the cap is normally not recommended.

You can be shreded 20% by the respective shred debuff, and marked for death drops another 20%.

[cobalt quest]

why not recommended then? wouldnt 115% provide the best defense?

[surreal verge]

Because both enemy shred and marked for death are rare, and mostly done via monolith modifiers which can be avoided.

[cobalt quest]

i see, thank you for the info. just trying to be safe cuz i only play hc

when a modifier says mobs become "deadly" what does that mean exactly?

[lavish dew]

Also you can remove both enemy shred and marked for death by Cleanse (from the belt affix on potion use or certain skills like holy aura, warcry. smite)

[cobalt quest]

ahhhh tyvm

[restive epoch]

Getting 75% cap for sure... idk about HC, but if you can get a bit more without losing other defences, why not... also few items/passives(?) in the game work with uncapped resists to give you something for x%

[desert tree]

You are most likely tankier by getting more then going overcap

[hushed skiff]

Thank you

Eternal Travler, Vanquisher, Templar and legend are the only packs that will be removed permanently right?

[lavish dew]

Anyone know how Jagged Veil's more crit multi works exactly? does it consider skill specific crit multi (such as crit multi with lightning skills and the crit multi inside Static orb node Critical Trajectory for example) or is it just your global crit multi?

[desert tree]

Where is it ? Jagged Veil

[lavish dew]

Runemaster passive at the end of the tree. The threshold bonus specifically.

[desert tree]

I am confused by your question then

It gives you Crit Multi against bosses per you Ward

[lavish dew]

oh its just flat crit multi? bleh

[desert tree]

20%

Max

[knotty tinsel]

No, it's a %more multiplier to your crit multi you're right on that

[desert tree]

Oh wait I am wrong

MBmbmb

[lavish dew]

yeah right that's what I thought

[knotty tinsel]

I think it accounts for all applying bonuses when you hit at any given time? At least that's how it should work

[lavish dew]

it should, also awkward to test

[knotty tinsel]

Can't see it working any other way to be fair because stuff "against rares and bosses" isn't a character sheet stat

[oblique geyser]

roque skill puncture increases bleed duration...isnt that bad because it takes bleed longer to kill monsters?

[knotty tinsel]

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

Changing the duration of an ailment that deals damage affects the total amount of damage it will deal, but does not affect damage per second (DPS). This results in its increasing the total damage the ailment deals over its duration.

[lavish dew]

This is why I hate the runemaster passives, more armor per shock on enemies, more endurance threshold per ignite on enemies. Can't see the effect in your char sheet, can't feel its effect well enough in combat and doesn't synergize with other mechanics like ward threshold based on endurance threshold and armor mitigation applies to DoT.

[oblique geyser]

thanks...still not fully 100% getting it but makes more sense now 😇

[knotty tinsel]

they're not massive numbers but they're helping out for sure. A lot of runemaster's effects are "weird" and don't come into their own unless you're mixing all three elements together in some way, and that's fine

[surreal verge]

Basically, when you buff the damage on an ailment, you're boosting it's DPS, not total damage.
So any 'extensions' work off it's DPS.

[oblique geyser]

sorry now im confused again....the link said it doesnt boost dps but it does boost the total damage... 😕 ...wait your talking about the damage now and not the lenght 🤔
