Narrower affixes have higher Values

[surreal verge]

Yes, yes.
More specific= bigger numbers.

[brave grove]

Are there any patch notes for today?

[storm blaze]

Patch notes are released on 11th

[brave grove]

Slightly disappointing

[earnest garden]

patch notes are a week before the game, I think that’s a long amount of time for this genre

Poe2 won’t have their patch notes out until the day before they launch

[storm wren]

hah so I can't check out their notes until Apr. 3th in pst?

[brave grove]

Yeah I guess 1st of april patch notes doesn't work well in this genre

[storm wren]

Apr. 2nd is a good day too

[worldly raptor]

anyone know good ways to get gear in early monoliths? I'm lvl70 on the "Ending the Storm" timeline rn

[storm wren]

I need to ask that in their community server...

[brave grove]

I love how I read april fools patch notes of gw2 despite not playing the game anymore or planning to pick it up again, it just has a certain charm to it

[storm blaze]

Crate entertainment used to put fake update notes for Grim Dawn on april fools
like how they're gonna put a dating sim in the game where you can date the bosses instead of killing them

[storm wren]

Oh forget NZT is sleeping time now so my time is the samy day with them exactly even they post patch notes after they go to work later

No sense to ask will GGG release patch note in fool's day or not because this day is gone for me already

[brave grove]

There's always a next year

[desert tree]

They said Thursday, NZ Thursday
I believe

[grand shoal]

And PoE again.... 🤢

[storm wren]

😂 😂 😂 .

[worldly raptor]

yep

just gonna repost my question

anyone know good ways to get gear in early monoliths? I'm lvl70 on the "Ending the Storm" timeline rn

[grand shoal]

I'm not sure what you mean?

In general you can push item rarity via corruption once you are in empowered monolith.

But beside that, you just slay monsters and pray for good loot

Getting higher ranks in Circle of Fortune also results in more loot.

[storm wren]

I don't have much interest to play ARPG recently... Get addicted to cook my artworks instead

Catching up my progress for the deadline (Apr. 3nd)

[storm wren]

thanks, my facial mask is peeled from my face almost again while I just saw that

[storm blaze]

That rain comment 😂

[storm wren]

Wick, I want the link of that steam page so I can check out the trailer and wishlist :)

[storm blaze]

It's not real

It's april fools joke

[arctic scarab]

NOOOOOOOO

[storm wren]

I know, I make a joke with Wick too

The steam page looks quite cool anyways. Good job, it looks realistic

[mortal seal]

What are people doing to practice for season start ? Gonna be doing heartseeker

[outer mango]

I wait for launch

[storm wren]

I'm a legacy player so I need to prepare nothing

[outer mango]

Me neither, i have no chars

Never understood why u need to practice game you already know

If ur not speedrunning

[storm wren]

😂 Maybe they're finding their memory back after left le for a long time

[outer mango]

Maybe 🙃

[native sail]

I'm a seasonal player I just don't need practice. Still got everything memorised. I'm not out here trying to win races.

[storm blaze]

I'm a seasonal player and I don't practice
I remember nothing
I just go through the campaign without paying attention

[thorny terrace]

Is having a decent amount of armor on your build fairly important for most classes/builds?

Is there a good target?

[toxic echo]

the target depends on class, but yea, generally you wanna get as much as you can

[winged ginkgo]

a weeks ago, I asked about shard being able to be automatically absorbed to your character, and EHG responded with something like " we aren't prepared to make that change at this time" but apparently the memory amber of the woven will works like this...
playing D4 nowadays, and tbh, just having to play, and the loot automatically come to you is HUGE QoL. every time i launch last epoch, i have to back pedal to loot some shards...

[desert tree]

Shards will directly into the forge

In s2

[winged ginkgo]

still have to click them, like who wouldn't click them anyway?

[blazing glacier]

Same, the one thing I will never forget though is that you never actually need to fight campaign lagon to get all the passives, unlocks, etc.

Skip lagon crew rise up

[inner mountain]

TREE BOSS ENJOYERS RISE UP

the real final boss of the campaign

[narrow spear]

I always thought frenzy was 20% more castspeed, but tooltip actually says 20% increased.
So does it just add on my increased cast speed stack, or is the tooltip inaccurate?

[wide sentinel]

3k×

[wide sentinel]

Its not more, yes

[narrow spear]

hm. that makes frenzy alot less appealing. thanks ^^

[inner mountain]

it's still quite good, if you have less than 100% increased cast speed 20% increased is better than 20% more

[blazing glacier]

Would this be true in LE? I think the more multipliers include the base amount of 100% not part of the "increased" number.

Doesn't the "more crit multi / movement speed" stuff still do something if you have no increased?

[vernal phoenix]

does DK casting Hungering souls work with HS skill tree?

[inner mountain]

oh that's a good point actually, ran into this when i was trying to see how slow it was possible to go. (-87% is the slowest i managed to reach without a party or special effects applied by enemies(it's hilariously slow (do not play this build lmao)) )

So yeah with any amount of increased cast speed above 0% having frenzy be a more multiplier would be better than it being an increased modifier

[last kayak]

Yeah "More" is always better than "Increased" as long as you've got a base of 100%. If you've somehow got a bunch of Reduced Cast Speed, then More would be worse

Also that reminds me of the POE experiment someone did where they got 99% reduced cast speed 😝

[inner mountain]

fun to do experiments like that

[arctic scarab]

It was Jungroan I think, when he did that 2000 fireballs on the screen crap in Crucible I think?

[last kayak]

Yeah, something like that. It was pretty absurd

I remember the attack speed version where they did a leap slam that took an hour to finish

[arctic scarab]

Yea that was seriously ridiculous

[median zenith]

you seen the empy video where they made the smallest character size possible? they got to like 1 or 2 pixels it was insane XD

[narrow spear]

lol, need to watch that

[last kayak]

Yeah, I love the stupid min/max videos. The giant one was awesome too

[spark lake]

Can we stack this +54 necro damage by using multiple potions?

[surreal verge]

No, it'll refresh the buff (And debuff) instead.

[desert tree]

99% sure no

[narrow spear]

does the + spelldamage for storm bolts somehow increase storm bolts cast by storm totem?

[last kayak]

It does it for storm bolts from every source

[narrow spear]

oh nice, thx

[spark lake]

this node work for ALL skill ? It litterally convert all my poison chance to bleed chance?

[last kayak]

Only for Puncture, but it will convert all poison chance on your character to bleed when using puncture.

[lucid barn]

quick question, got the urge to play again, would me starting a char now mean id have to start a new one in 2 weeks?

[median lodge]

Only if you want to play "seasonnal" in 2 weeks

[desert tree]

You can keep playing your "old" char

There is no content locked in the new season

[lucid barn]

ive seen that, but wouldnt playing the old char restrict me in some way..?

[median lodge]

Season => reset progress, economy, ladder / no content locked

[desert tree]

Maybe if you plan to play Merchant Guild

Legacy Trade will probably be more expansive and less active

[median lodge]

Or with friends that want to season

[desert tree]

That too

[lucid barn]

Whelp, then coming back in 2 weeks it is
shame they had to push back the date

[median lodge]

true, you can "try do the campaign" if you know what build to play, if you solo / CoF create your own loot filter

[viscid patio]

whats the fastest way to level up circle of prophecy?

[median lodge]

maybe "try leveling skills", i made a Mage without Glacier, tried volcanic orbs, FC and other spells to see what "click with me"

[last kayak]

This is what most folks will be doing, we'll all be here when the patch drops. Patch notes on the 11th, so we'll see what the big changes are then.

[prime patio]

For items such as this, that say "shred physical resistance", does the debuff have a cap? Or it is as much as you can stack like it is for bleed for instance?

[median lodge]

i think all debuff => 200% = you put 2 stacks

[last kayak]

The Game Guide has good info. All resistance shreds work the same. Armor shred works a bit differently

[faint cape]

All flavors of res shred have max 10 stacks

[median lodge]

shame !!! ><"

[desert tree]

Kill mobs at higher lvl for more favors and reputation

[sterile widget]

It's important to season your friends.

[acoustic thicket]

So I am randomly getting one shot on my spellblade in empowered monos and not sure how. Sometimes it says poison damage or other ones and its just instant one shot. I have like over 1500 health and a 2k shield that then I am hitting people it can get to over 5k

it is very frustrating sometimes because I have to run into melee to hit stuff and its just randomly one shotting me, compared to my lock which I can just be god 😭

[toxic echo]

well poison doesnt hit. its dot only, so if you are dying to poison, its not a oneshot...you are getting ticked or hit and ticked. either way some form of more sustain or cleanse will fix that

ward retention is pretty low, esp for empowered, armor a little low too (but its hard to stack on mage so eh). if you only have 1.5k hp and 2k ward, thats just not enough, esp on spellblade which is by far the weakest mage spec

your stats seem fine though, so you got the right idea, just need better stuff i think.

[acoustic thicket]

how much shield do I need? Because its just 2k resting, not when running and attacking

doing monos it sits around 5k ish

do I need 10k?

[faint cape]

Way overcapped on resists, so you can upgrade your defenses a lot by replacing those suffixes with armor, ward per second, etc. Also looks like you're low on int, you probably want a lot more int on your gear.

[acoustic thicket]

I have 100 int

how much more do I need you think?

[spark lake]

you can't have 100 int with 100 ward retention 😄

[faint cape]

How do you only have 100% ward retention?

[acoustic thicket]

was in town

99 int not 100

[faint cape]

Ah, okay that's better lol

Now even way more overcapped on resists though

[toxic echo]

bruh cant send that first pic and be like just kidding these are my real numbers.

yeah just start whittling the over capped res for other defense, get a better belt (thats a bad base all things considered), exalt amy and leg slam the offhand. you still got some room to grow.

also at lvl 82...that first jump to empowered is often hard

you likely dont even have the grand blessings you need yet

[acoustic thicket]

Yeah I only have 3 grand blessings

[spark lake]

if you really want to fix your survivability at cost of some dmg, replace your boots for "last steps" that will generate huge amount of ward per second if a have a decent health pool, and capitalize on uncapped necro res with your helmet

[acoustic thicket]

first 3 empowered were easy

[faint cape]

Yeah, since you have barbute, work on replacing all your excess resists with armor, ward per second, and/or necro res

[acoustic thicket]

oh I was just going off this: https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/shatter-strike-spellblade-guide

It said exile boots are bis. Another build video I saw also had exile boots as really good because its got dex and int

but will work on the resistences

and get ward per second

ty

[faint cape]

You'll want a good bit higher resting ward, because that's probably how you die - before your arcane shielding and battle ward can spin up

[toxic echo]

boots are fine with your setup

the last steps are really good with other low life stuff...but you arent setup for that

[spark lake]

if he replaces overcapped res for health and get last steps to generate much more wps I think that will rapidly fix the problem

[acoustic thicket]

yeah makes sense

so will stack a bunch more health and ward thank you

[spark lake]

even if last step are for low life purpose, that's also a good wps

[acoustic thicket]

spellblade fun but the game so much easier on my warlock

[toxic echo]

yea

SB is a little out of touch compared to new classes

[acoustic thicket]

big sad, spellblade such a cool concept that games just never get right, this one did a great job with it

[toxic echo]

yeah. it'll get its time. unofrtunantly other classes are worse off (lich)

[thorny terrace]

So, is overlapping substantially on resist a good idea or is it mostly a matter of grabbing 75 across the board and grabbing other stuff?

[faint cape]

SB is pretty solid still, it just has a lil low build variety for now

[acoustic thicket]

Yeah its fun, shatter is fun to run around and spam

[faint cape]

Get 75% or close and avoid going over unless stacking it benefits your build in some way

[spark lake]

85ish since enemies can lower your own res

is ideal

[faint cape]

60% all resists is even fine going into empowered if the rest of your build is solid

I'll even mostly ignore poison res for a long while lol

[faint cape]

Not generally worth spending affixes on that, but it's nice to have a little overcap on some resists sometimes

Enemy resist shred is not super common outside of poison, which is rare-ish, and can always be cleansed

[earnest garden]

dont worry about enemies reducing your resists by a bit, its not like PoE or other ARPGs where not being at cap means you take an enormous amount more damage

LE is much more forgiving to resists due to the already existent res penetration by level

[gloomy plover]

That’s good to hear. I thought if I had less than 100% in empowered I was at risk of getting surprise one shot by anything that had mark of death.

[sonic saddle]

Nah it's not like PoE where 25% res reduction would be double or more damage taken

25% res reduction is 25% more damage taken

[quick apex]

Are cyclone like builds still a thing? Or should I just go marksman lol

[last kayak]

Yeah, Sentinel is getting big reworks this next patch, but Warpath should be solid. Most things that arent volatile reversal are probably getting buffed.

[thorny terrace]

How's Erasing Strike? I've always loved the animation

[inner mountain]

Quite strong

[ocean onyx]

so in new season are we going to be able to put onto rare items?

[earnest garden]

thats the idea, though not just rares but exalted items too. they havent given us the full details yet on how its going to work but it will be a shard that you can craft and will come with we think a hybrid affix line (2 things) and then also count as part of that set for the bonus

Im sure we will find out more about it in the next dev interview which is focused on itemization

[worldly raptor]

if anyone can help with this, I'd really appreciate it
#💰┃merchants-guild message

[last kayak]

Current conjecture is that the set shattering is one of the woven echoes. You do that, it gives you the opportunity to shatter set pieces, and then you use the shards in crafting like normal

[knotty quail]

Guys, did the Twitch drops get moved up in date to the beginning of season 2 too? I thought it was originally scheduled for early April, too.

yes

[wary sierra]

is the missing health globe spawn issue still persist? https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/health-globe-spawning/73370

I wanted to ask someone to screenshot it to me as I don't see anything new when I put point in Hope for Holy Aura, then I found this

[edgy crane]

Is there any class that doesn't have animation lock when casting or using skills?

or a build

[toxic echo]

only certain skills that are 'instant cast'

everything else has some sort of making you stop to cast

[surreal verge]

Possible instant cast skills:
Tornado
Flame Ward
Static
Arcane Ascendance
Enchant Weapon
Volatile Reversal
Anomaly
Ring of Shields
Sigil Of Hope
Holy Aura

Of these, only Tornado and Static is a damage skill, the rest are support skills.

[surreal verge]

Check list above ^
In theory, no, since neither of the two skills are good enough to be the only DPS skills, they normally need another skill to back them up.

[proud prawn]

an spammable instant cast DPS skill sounds like the most broken thing that could ever exist

[oblique geyser]

temporal sanctum can merge uniques and exalted items...what when i have a unique with 108 health and exalted with 107 health...can the merged item can have both health affixes?

[faint cape]

Also anything that you proc doesn't use an animation

[proud prawn]

yes. the unique mod belongs to the unique and won't be changed

[oblique geyser]

then im having bad luck...thanks

[spark lake]

do u guys know if those passives work as intended with lethal mirage ?

like each hit will benefit from those passive

[faint cape]

Yeah, all strikes from each use are just one skill usage

[surreal verge]

Yes.

[median lodge]

Will this "anti epileptic" shrine be removed ? always regret clicking it

[arctic scarab]

No, weak bloodlines will be purged.

Next ones are lactose intolerant people because cheese is life.

[dusky kite]

joke's on you, you are always at risk of getting surprise oneshot if your corruption is high enough

[median lodge]

true ! it's not really epileptic ((cause i play minigun Lich and it flashes a lot)) ; it's more "Glare / Dazzlement", like the sun in the eyes, i can't look at my screen when on shrine buff (yeah not optimal in hc i admit)

[median lodge]

"high corruption" they said, DoT damage wants to know your location

[dusky kite]

"damage over time" - deletes your character instantly

[median lodge]

xD

it's "damage over t---" already dead

I suspect DoT using Last Epoch Shards to trick us

A zeptosecond is a valid unit of time

Philosophical question, if you can't percieve something because your reaction time is too low, does that thing even exist ?

If a tree falls in the woods...

Yes, the answer is yes.

everything that exists without my knowledge exists without my consent, and all that

[storm wren]

😮 I never know this interaction

😂 I want to try that one day

[storm wren]

so your way is space to move, mouse to adjust directions?

[median lodge]

yep left thumb ether "press" constantly space-bar in mono, adjusting mouse for aiming attacks, or "hit and run" mouse position=>1 space tap => mouse aim and shot => mouse and space

it allow me to NEVER pick an item while moving ((long time HC player))

• i do way less "click" or "action", so less carpal problems

[median lodge]

Free at last !

[storm wren]

Congratulations! how much lv 100 characters you have now?

[median lodge]

3 this cycle and 5 before, total 8

But they didn't survive HC, i can't put an item in Nemesis without dying ... skill issues

[ocean onyx]

For the spirits of fire harbinger, how do i get him to stay out of the necrotic zones? Or just have to kill faster?

[rugged sinew]

he's melee

if you move away he should follow you

[inner mountain]

*and then spawn another necrotic zone

[indigo berry]

He's definitely annoying when playing melee.

[inner mountain]

my startegy is to tank the necrotic pool lol

[tribal meadow]

Trying to read Nemesis items while you have the offscreen artillery objective

🏃

🏃‍➡️

[median lodge]

i don't know how to read, i just shift+click the item but it drop it on the ground, then i search in all my stash LP 0 item.... opening stash just take 98% of my screen :v

[tribal meadow]

I try to read items on the spot so my stash ain't getting cluttered

🏹 ⚔️

[storm blaze]

Just like most ARPG players then
can't read

[median lodge]

Why should i read ? i see an egg => i (try) to put my item in it !

Only Jirina is reading yellow items on nemesis xD

[storm blaze]

I read the yellow items on nemesis too tbh

Want to see if there's good things

[median lodge]

Why ? would it change something? i just put in egg=>empower=>challenge // Maybe first character for leveling i'll check

[storm blaze]

Sometimes it seals an affix and gives another

Sometimes thing goes from yellow to purple

So I wanna see if there's something that I want to see upgraded

I'm not in any rush

[median lodge]

Min maxing ! i spam "Empower" and rip on poison one ! no time (need rush before dying interacting with it)

[storm blaze]

That works too

Hey guys, I am a moba player new to LE I used to move with right click, its working fine and I set the basic attack to left button. When I am looting I need to perss left button and it keeps casting the basic attack while looting. is there anwyay I can fix this ? Is it also possible to make a many map on the top right a bit smaller?

[median lodge]

Dunno, i got the same "problem" with right click doign attack when i manage my stash

[grand wraith]

sad

[buoyant sinew]

you can't rebind the hard coded left click functionality, it's a common request from moba players but sounds like it would be a nightmare for them to implement. you'd have to use software to swap left and right click on your mouse for LE (autohotkey or most gaming mice will have something).

though I'd recommend just learning the different control scheme, I came from mobas and had the same struggle but it doesn't take that long to adapt

Is there anyway to skip the harbinger fight after beating a timeline boss? Sometimes I'll complete a bunch of prophecies but not be able to loot anything because the harbinger spawns, kills me, and I can't get any of the items

Or can I turn off the harbinger spawn and just fight the timeline boss?

[surreal verge]

Untick the harbinger crest before starting the quest echo. If you can’t (because it’s your last normal monolith), then it’s unavoidable.

[thorny terrace]

Awesome, thanks a ton, I'm dumb and didn't read

Hello travelers, I have a problem with stash tabs; I have bought them all and toward buying the last ones I started to notice a bug: I rename a stash tab and move it somewhere, then after quitting the game or changing character, the stash tab in question has retained its new name and content, but has move back to its prior place. Is it a know issue ? Do reinstalling the game may fix this ?

[cedar locust]

Open task manager and look for a program called UnityCrashHandler - if it's there, kill it! Also, re-install your drivers from the website and not through the Nvidia App/GeForce Experience, there's some issues lately not just with LE. I lost a ton of frames and had bad stuttering in Horizon Forbidden West until I re-DL'd my drivers directly.

[ionic cloak]

there is no such program on my task manager... for this past 2 hours i did reinstall my windows and download this game from zero. no solution yet....

did try run on compability mode too... same

[cedar locust]

Check windows Eventviewer as it might give some insight as to what's causing the crash

Also have task manager open when you load to see if there are any spikes in GPU or CPU usage

[cedar locust]

Wait, you're on a laptop and did a clean re-install recently?

Check to see which graphics card is running Last Epoch - If it's defaulting to the integrated graphics card, that might be the cause but you should be able to force it to use the 4060. Also turn off 'optimizations for windowed games' if that's turned on.

[ionic cloak]

Yes... after some reinstall my driver i did reinstall my windows thinking there might be some system issues. But its not helping... yes i force it to run on the nvidia control panel settings

Already sent support team some letter, meanwhile i guess just wait till new patch

[cedar locust]

I'm also on a Laptop with a Nvidia card (4090) so if I can think of anything else would you mind me pinging you?

[outer mango]

Newest nvidia drivers are poop and can cause problems. Even game devs recommends to revert back to december 2024 drivers if u have problems. Might be worth a shot

https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/gpu-drivers/game-developers-urge-nvidia-rtx-30-and-40-series-owners-rollback-to-december-2024-driver-after-recent-rtx-50-centric-release-issues

[cedar locust]

Oof, that far back?

[outer mango]

Seems so

[ionic cloak]

Its okay

[cedar locust]

Well, that article above is a good place to start it seems

[ionic cloak]

Okay let me try

[outer mango]

🙏

[median lodge]

When your update cause more bug / less stable version (cought cought windows update caught...)

did install previous driver and make sure to use nvidia to run last epoch.... still cant run it

i thought that maybe my windows is the problem... but i did reinstall my windows :((

f*ing unity crash

Did u do full windows wipe/reinstall?

i did... another game run without problem

@median lodge rogue with Xithara 😄

[storm blaze]

Because you've like 0. something life
just barely above 0

[cedar locust]

My best guess is you have between 0.1 and 0.4 health, if you had 0.5 it would round up to 1

[median lodge]

You've got "the perfect hit" "right amount of damage", no damage wasted :

(0 overkill)

And you have the "double death", 1 damage overkill you for 1, so you were already dead before :

=> mention it's a tripple death because Lich is dead already

[spark lake]

Does healing effectiveness will affect Xithara "potion health converted to ward" ?

since healing from potion is affected by healing effectiveness

[desert tree]

Is it ?

[surreal verge]

No it’s not. Healing from potions is NOT affected by healing effectiveness. Check the tooltip for healing effectiveness.

[desert tree]

Ah, thats what I thought

[spark lake]

so healing effectiveness only work for effects related to skills? For example health on glancing blow is not affected by healing effectiveness?

[desert tree]

Health on GB is not a "Heal"

Its a recovery

It needs to say "XXX heals you"

Like Healing Hands or Eterra Blessing

Or this one in Rogue (since you mention Glancing Blow I am guessing you play Rogue)

[spark lake]

for example this node won't interact with healing effectivenvess

[desert tree]

Correct, this is a Health "gain"

[spark lake]

ok so if "healing" is not mentioned, healing effectiveness won't work

[desert tree]

Yes

Thats also true for Leech and Health Regen for exemple

[spark lake]

ye sadly this stats is really "niche" for some class since you don't have access to lots of "healing" tag

[dusky kite]

even on classes that do use it like paladin it's mostly stacked for secondary dps benefits

[surreal verge]

Yeah, no one stacks healing effectivness for healing, most of the time

[indigo timber]

would this node on multistrike also allow your smites to target a single target when converting swords to smites

[desert tree]

We surely hope so

[lavish dew]

This is the new node Karv teased right? I think he said it will but recheck the interview

Or ask the dev chat

[indigo timber]

yeah i can probably find it (maybe), thanks

[desert tree]

Just checked
Karv doesnt clearly says it

[indigo timber]

rip, i really hope it does, this skill functions terrible rn

[desert tree]

I mean , you will be able to use it for Single Target now, as a proper Melee Skill

I am scared of that alt text though ^^

[indigo timber]

id prefer to be a smite electify cuck 😉

[desert tree]

It does look insane for Electrify

[indigo timber]

and the healing hands electrify prolif sounds sooo nice

[desert tree]

Its really good yeah

We just need a Lightning Conversion for HH now 🤞

[tawny shell]

is there any calculator for rarity+COF? I am farming this belt with this chance to drop as LP2, I have 750 corruption and full COF and I am wondering how many times on average, I need to kill that boss (So far I haev 50 kills on this corruptionú

[desert tree]

https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/lp-chance

[desert tree]

Make sure you go far away to fight the Shade

[sleek yew]

Never forget, you must sacrifice your time to RNGesus!

[tawny shell]

wdym? wait with Abomination fight or?

[storm blaze]

Away from the starting spot of the echo web

[dusky kite]

we don't know but presumably yes

[tawny shell]

why is that when I am farming belt from Echo boss?

[desert tree]

Oh! I tought you wanted a belt from the Shade

Mb

[tawny shell]

ah no, I forgot to post name, thats my bad

[storm blaze]

Yeah thought you meant the belt from shade.

[tawny shell]

this bad boy https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/items/UAzCM4JiA

[desert tree]

Its the Ward Belt from Abom, gotcha

So yeah

[tawny shell]

it took me 5 days to drop T7 crit reduce on belt as exalted, so wanted to drop LP2 to increase chance of slamming it

[desert tree]

Enough rarity to get to 45% Drop Rate

1 in 78 should be 2lp

[tawny shell]

oof, thats sounds horrible

to gamble slam

[desert tree]

Lpl 82

[tawny shell]

I think CoF is not for me 😄

cant imagine 78 kills on average, to just gamble slam and going for it again

and thats 78 average, not guarantee

[desert tree]

cant imagine 78 kills on average
You need to double that since you only have 45% to drop it

[tawny shell]

ah, thats true!

[desert tree]

Its more like 190 kills ish

[tawny shell]

thats even worse

thats like 80 hours of gaming just for one belt lol

Bazaar, I am awaiting you in few days, my beloved

[indigo timber]

30 minute endeavour with glyphs of envy 😉

[tawny shell]

oh wait, you can glyph of envy on your main character in empowered monos?

[storm blaze]

Yes

[tawny shell]

thats huge! thanks

388 envy glyphs, here we go

[indigo timber]

they only give like 200 stability compared to max though

still great

[tawny shell]

oh okey, yeah, still useful

even tho on this corruption, one mono giving kinda huge stability already

but I am clearing it slower now, because my game started act weird and I am having 1-5 fps when doing gate objectives or minibosses spawn or its arena

not sure why

[tawdry ibex]

Are servers wiping soon)

[storm blaze]

no

[tawdry ibex]

Do they ever wipe seasonally? (Sorry in advance I come from poe2 and d4)

[storm blaze]

Characters are moved from season to legacy
along with the stash etc
so if you want to start a character in new season, yes it's a fresh start

[tawdry ibex]

Thank you!

[outer mango]

Same system

[sweet lagoon]

i see all the leveling builds on maxroll and lastepoch are for 1.0 and 1.1, is leveling a one time thing only? Is that why the builds are for older versions only. Or cna you just use speedfarming builds now for leveling also? going for my first playthrough. Got some previous experience though with D4 so i know a little bit about arpgs

[outer mango]

patch notes are not out so cant do 1.2 guides

but most of older guides should still work

[sweet lagoon]

oh wait, i think i kinda confused myself here ngl. i thought for a moment it was 1.7. But it is 1.1.7. the builds from last summer should work fine right?

[median lodge]

LE is a great game to "test your own build", change skills/spells and keep the one you like, then respec later for a "better optimal build", you won't be punished for testing

[sweet lagoon]

I see, so for leveling. Just pick wahtever i like. Then i just optimize later down the road

[median lodge]

Yep, when you "look" at a skill, there is scalling tag under it (for exemple : fire - spell - intel), showing what stats you need to make the skill better

[thorny terrace]

Most folks use Last Epoch tools if they're looking for strong builds to carry them to high corruption, right?

[outer mango]

maxroll too

[median lodge]

i use it for items - builds (LADDER) - video-shoutout (in this discord) got some nice builds too (small content creators)

or just "google it", some reddit post have links to youtube/LE tools builds

You can ask in "Classes" channels too, some people are really knowledgeable

[thorny terrace]

Sounds good, ty. I like to have some builds I make on my own, and others specifically to really optimizing farming as much as possible

[outer mango]

many of those bigger guide makers are here too

lurking

[storm wren]

youtube is the god forever

[stark lily]

how is prices in merchant guild?

[velvet steppe]

Why is that i only have 2 wraiths? eventhough i have already aberrant's call and i increased my wraith population cap

[velvet steppe]

i didnt noticed that

thanks

[wide sentinel]

so is snapshot for minions a mechanic that devs want us to use at this point? 🤔 or we should avoid it

[desert tree]

Come on Misha, you know they dont want it

[wide sentinel]

do they tho 🤔

some may argue that few minions are even balanced around snapshots , like crows for example

they die if you dont snapshot but are amazing if you snapshot

kinda same with squirells/wolves but on high cor

[outer mango]

i wish snapshotting were removed once and for all

[desert tree]

They are trying

[outer mango]

nice

[faint cape]

They at least say they want it gone, and have made some changes that reduce it

But actually getting rid of it completely might be a bit difficult with the way they have stuff set up currently

[lavish dew]

Bone golem/Aaron's will is based around snapshotting tho. You have to spec into summon skele to get the max 4 golems from the chest but then you are giving up one skill specialization for a useless skill (since you cannot summon skeletons, rest of the points in the skill are useless).

[hollow fox]

do we have any info on class changes for upcoming season?

[storm blaze]

Only what has been teased

[hollow fox]

sentinel rework is what i heard

and nothing else 😄

[storm blaze]

marksman is getting a new skill

[hollow fox]

ooh

sweet

anything else that i missed?

[storm blaze]

Could be
I haven't really kept up with the info 🤷‍♂️

[toxic echo]

hard to tell what you have missed, since we are not you. but there are plenty of teasers in the #eterra-monthly posts

[hollow fox]

no actual patch notes yet right?

do we have a guestimate when there will be patch notes? 😄

[storm wren]

#💬┃general message

That date based on CST

[hollow fox]

11th....thanks!

[thorny terrace]

Do we know which sentinel specialization will receieve the most changes in the upcoming rework yet?

[toxic echo]

not 100% sure until patch notes, but it looks like VK is getting the 'most' cuz of the VR changes. but we do know FG and pala gettin touched a bit too so

[hearty gyro]

is there a way to make a certain item drop and show on the mini map when doing monoliths?

[desert tree]

Nope

[outer jay]

whats the wand I need to slot in when I want marinas lost soul using rune of ascendance

[outer mango]

Base item doesnt affect the result

Can be any wand

[outer jay]

oh cool thanks

[zinc igloo]

Anyone have tips on how to counter the downside of last steps of the living?

[tranquil pike]

So I know its in the april fools prank but is bee-teor actually real? I want it lol 😂

[outer mango]

It could be real as meteor mtx

[toxic echo]

What part are you having trouble with?

[zinc igloo]

Chilled every 3 seconds

[toxic echo]

Either a cleanse or just become immune to chill. Or just build more attack/cast speed

[faint cape]

Still waiting on our beeteor unique to support elemental bees

[faint cape]

Usually just ignore it, though there is a helm that makes you immune, snowblind iirc

[outer jay]

I'd love if it were a unique you could get and it changes your meteors to beeteors lmao

[dusky kite]

shrapnel conversion to elemental bees

[faint cape]

Please. And I guess we'd also need some way to scale them. Minions on mage lol

[shut walrus]

is there a way to change blessings without having to redo the monolith bosses?

[toxic echo]

the blessing npc in EoT

if you have the blessing unlocked

[near vale]

Should I stack armor shred vs aberroth or dot? I'm melee

[toxic echo]

when you say melee....are you like actual melee crit, or just melee to apply dot?

[near vale]

Melee earthquake primalist

It changes aftershocks to dot but I cant put that stat on a weapon

I'm trying to figure put what other suffix to put. I have physical penetration already

[toxic echo]

so the end dmg is dot. armor shred isnt going to help that.

prolly like a chill or slow or something like that

just for a little utility

[near vale]

Can aberroth be chilled or slowed? I'm trying to gear around the aberroth fight

[toxic echo]

he can get all ailments. bosses just get reduced effectiveness

[near vale]

Hmm what about frailty?

[vivid basin]

Can you slam (for example) an acolyte relic with no class specific affixes on a unique and use it on a rogue?

[toxic echo]

yeah that'd work if you dont have it elsewhere

long as there are no class specific affixes i think so

[vivid basin]

Ok Ty!

[indigo timber]

is the dmg per attunement additive or multiplicative?

[desert tree]

Increased > additive with other sources of Increase

[indigo timber]

yeah thats what i was thinking, just havent seen many sources of inc damage on skills tho

[desert tree]

Skills usually have More Dmg

Inc is more common on gear and passives

[thorny terrace]

I'm a little confused about set crafting
Sets are broken into shards which can be slotted onto any of the affixes of an exalted right?
And do these affixes have T1-7 too?

[toxic echo]

im pretty sure that was confirmed, yea

[thorny terrace]

Maybe it's worth hanging onto set items while I'm farming currently then, I think

[toxic echo]

if you are gonna play legacy, yea prolly

[candid rampart]

Can some one please explain shadows to me? every where i look its very vague on what they can use and what they cannot. The descriptions in game are inconsistent between nodes. Can they use any attack i use? only certain skills? Can they throw nets? what if i made the nets into traps?

[remote laurel]

am i not able to install last epoch on linux desktop on steam . it say only for windows

[sullen verge]

ARE WE STILKL ON

for april 18

apr 17 for u guys 18 for me

down under

[faint cape]

Yes

[toxic echo]

Linux version was nixed a bit ago. Just proton now

[toxic echo]

They just use those skills

Tho i do thought they can use nets...thats pretty easy to test tho

[hearty gyro]

I have been playing quite a lot now. I keep farming the Reigns of Dragons Monolith for the Twisted Heart of Uhkeiros and have not seen it once yet. Is it a very rare drop rate?

[toxic echo]

Its one of the rare ones , yea

[median zenith]

note that's a boss drop, so just keep killing the boss in that timeline and you'll eventually get it! (glyph of envy is great for boss rushing)
https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/items/UAwVgHATAjAbEA

may RNG be in your favor

[hearty gyro]

tysm, I have been fighting that boss. Hopefully it drops soon. For some reason almost every build I look at has that item on it but have yet to see it. I wanted to kill the final boss of empowered monoliths but figured I would wait to get the exact items I needed.

is that item available on the merchants guild?

[faint cape]

Yes, all equipment can be traded

[hearty gyro]

oh ok, I feel sometimes I made a mistake playing Circle of Fortune. It is very enjoyable to try and get some of these items, but it is also very frustrating when needing a certain item. I am not that well versed in arpgs so I end up with quite a lot of uniques but none of them hold any value for me.

[faint cape]

It can be both a blessing and a curse

[median lodge]

So, what's the deal with exp lvl 70-90 ? how make it fast ?

[hearty gyro]

oh I feel like exp is very fast

[median lodge]

lvl 78 in empo lvl 100 feel too slow, something weird happening

[faint cape]

The amount of xp you need to level up increases with level

it gets quite slow at 80, very slow at 90, and super slow by 95

[median lodge]

thanks i got 8 lvl 100, but lvl 70-90 seems weird

iam missing blessing => No Exp blessing, 5-10% shouldn't be it

[faint cape]

if it's feeling slow compared to your others, you might just be doing lower difficulty stuff currently

crank up your corruption if you can, speed clear, etc.

[sullen verge]

CANT WAIT MAN

I TOOK LEAVE FROM WORK FOR THIS

if they postpone again

@ehg plz dont

[median lodge]

just go for TorchliteInfinite launch on 17th 🙂

[sullen verge]

nah

im not even an avid arpg player lol

i just like this game alot

[median lodge]

lvl 79 in empower 100, iam not in "lower", i won't up corruption in HC without any stuff ;O maybe the mob-type plays a roll

[sullen verge]

its the perfect balance between poe and diablo

diablo is pay to win crap

and warframe

i dont play nothing besides this and warfram

in the arpg space

but warframe is not really the same kind of arpg

anyways

18 APRIL LETS GO

good friday

[median lodge]

isn't it the day the server are burning and you can't connect? :p

[sullen verge]

whaty

itll be april 18 around 1am for me

when i wake up game will be ready to go

right

?

plz say yes

[median lodge]

sorry :x

our server will be in fire, so we will come to saturate yours ><"

[sullen verge]

oh u think there will be ques and overloading

really?

like new world style

[median lodge]

like any online game with enought players, depend on infra sofware/hardware

they did great job last time, IF you could connect the game was stable

[sullen verge]

@ehg can u comment. do u anticipate ques upon release of 1.2?

[median lodge]

all server were OK, BUT the problem was the "connection id" software

can predict the future, wait and see

but the patch is massive, as the Hype

[sullen verge]

PLEASE NO LAG NO ISSUES ON APRIL 18

ill cry

[median lodge]

you play hc ?

[sullen verge]

nah

[median lodge]

300ms is bearable ^^ NA est-Eu

[faint cape]

There might be some server issues at launch. By the time you wake up, hopefully it'll be over, but it's one of those things, can't guarantee

[sullen verge]

WONDERFULLL

[median lodge]

i just hope i won't die in crash / loading screen (hc :v)

[south plover]

unless they updated server capacity i imagine there will be server queues, people will be coming off the huntress high of the POE2 craze looking forward to this,

[sullen verge]

are they planning on updating server capacity ?

[south plover]

I don't know that much, if they were planning on it they would have done so already to make sure everything works for the release

prepare for the worst, hope for the best

[median lodge]

Server capacity is not the problem, it's the piepeline, imagine a stadium, millions of people, BUT only 1 entrance in short path

[faint cape]

We know they have scalable server capacity, but yeah usually the issues have been with getting in

[median lodge]

Error LE-61 wants to know your location :p

[sullen verge]

prepare how

launch get in dont ever quit

[south plover]

prepare to sit in a queue for a while but hope it doesnt happen

[median lodge]

i don't remember waiting in any queue, it was either "it work or it does not", but i member a friend coming after work, he had queue+don't work

NEVER disconnect xD

[south plover]

right when the game launched i remember having a 30-45 min queue then DC central lol but que hopping because of DCs

[sullen verge]

dayum iy

it

thats very annoying to hear

[south plover]

that was also last year though so 🤷‍♂️

[median lodge]

so even more players now ?

[outer saddle]

Guys sorry if this is not the correct place to ask, but what's the current best minion based build? Still wraithlord? I just heard that Dread Shade is going to be permanent next season, which is awesome

[median lodge]

Bees ! minion = bees :p

Wraithlord is good, 15 flame wraith is good, there is some good zombie builds, top 1 SC is Abomination

[mortal wave]

nice joke)))

[median lodge]

the game has improved a lot, even without the new patch ! so why not ? :p ((all my friend who tried last year won't come back :x))

Maybe poe2 update is so hype that they will all come here ?

[sullen verge]

what kind of copium is this

[median lodge]

it's my Giga Hopium, first time taking it, i went all in

Never been hyped for any video game, so i decide "hey why not this time for once" ; then they report the launch OUCH ;o

Any sentinel build will be better that any Falconer

[sullen verge]

ahh ive been hyped a couple of times across my 23 years so far

[median lodge]

0 lag or queue at launch, but Billion$$ of players

[sullen verge]

namely warframe and assassins creeds

[median lodge]

HC will be balanced, like DoT damage, AND covenent of dominion will be remove

my bee build will kill uber aberoth hc xDD

[sullen verge]

bee?

who is bees

i dont remeber anything from this gme ngl

[median lodge]

[sullen verge]

i played necro thingy

broken build

around 5k corruption i reached

and some bow build i dont remember its name either

BUT HYPED FOR 1.2

ITLL ALL COME BACK MUSCLE MEMORY

[median lodge]

don't remember the Ponzi Pyramid Bees ? 😉

Bees is a MEME / troll build, but it works

[median lodge]

with 100 000 ward ? or just dodge everything in wraithlord?

[sullen verge]

lots of ward

[median lodge]

i know dread shade will be improved, but don't know How

i die way too much with my wraithlord, won't strat with it hc

[thorny terrace]

Do you get larger grand blessing rolls if you do higher corruption bosses?

[median lodge]

Better roll = no, harbinger level do it, BUT corruption gives more choice => 3 min and 5 max ?

Harbinger level don't give BETTER roll, it roll 2 time and take the best

[shy turret]

the answer with specifics is 200+ corruption and rank 8 Forgotten Knights for best chance at the blessing you want

[thorny terrace]

Do melee builds usually need to stack a lot more armor/health than ranged?

[merry torrent]

Generally yes, but different classes use different defense mechanics. A bladedancer will likely run evasion and silver shrouds. Spellblades still use ward as the main defensive mechanic.

[desert tree]

You don't get better roll with Corruption
But you get 5 blessings rolls at 200c

[tribal meadow]

The rare scuffed design by EHG

Was it for every person who got the bees meant 3 other people who didn't?

[grand shoal]

So sad I missed that 😦

[desert tree]

The bees ??

[grand shoal]

Ye

I was too late to the party

[desert tree]

Oh wow

I assumed you were here for 1.0 start

[grand shoal]

I came 3-4 weeks after release 😦

[icy drift]

There's anathor one...

[tribal meadow]

Behold a complete collection!

They are kinda cute when zoomed in

[desert tree]

Sorry but I am going to flex a little bit

Let me start the game

Behold !

Shiny rainbow bees !

[storm blaze]

How did you get that?

[storm blaze]

Ah
I might be a little jealous

[outer mango]

Golden bee-teor when

[desert tree]

Early early in the development there was a bug, when using Meteor it would summon a Wolf
I want that

[outer mango]

Lol

[tribal meadow]

Preferential treatment!

To the stake with you

[desert tree]

😏

[storm wren]

😢 EHG I want golden bees too

[restive epoch]

Void bees as minions for Void Knight?

[grand shoal]

Void bees🤔
Void bees! 🥹

I want that. Now.

[tribal meadow]

Give us the golden bees or this Grole gets it

🔫

Don't make him do it

[storm wren]

it's not an exclusive reward anymore if everyone can get that 🤷‍♀️

But I think prize lack issue is sure in le community.

I hope more community events are coming soon...

[desert tree]

Armored Bees !

For all Sentinels

[desert tree]

Golden Bees were never available for the public
Its a small gift from EHG to the moderation team

[desert tree]

Zom-bees for Acolyte too

[cedar locust]

https://tenor.com/view/zombie-the-cranberries-dolores-o-riordan-gif-10793594

[desert tree]

Well now I know what I am going to listen this afternoon

[merry torrent]

Bad wolves did a decent cover of the song, it's a shame Dolores O'Riordan (pictured) was suppose to sing with them on the cover, but passed away before then. Julia Westlin Did a really interesting cover for the song as well.

[grand shoal]

I like the Bad Wolves cover even more than the original song

[merry torrent]

I'm split on it, like both. The original has a nostalgic feel to it for me (my mother would play it all the time). Bad Wolves is a much cleaner sounding version, with a stronger rock element.

[storm wren]

I want a small gift from EHG too

The small gift I want the most is their artbook...

Artworks exchange artworks, reasonable

[grand shoal]

Honest question: I have seen that cathedral-like thing you've made, I mean, everybody here has. But that is probably not why you want something from EHG, or? If so, where is it related to EHG/LE?

[storm wren]

I have no idea how to improve the value of my works that enough for a game studio willing to hire me. The core still is how to build a portfolio when you apply for any titles about game environment arts.

Get more influence by making fan arts for a game studio maybe can give me an answer... Attract professional artists to give me help is what I want to do because I know I can't program and I can't design gameplay to make the own game, let someone hire me in this way is impossible.

What I'm good at only is environment art only, I'm interested in learning necessary knowledge for being an professional artist but what I'm doing so far is less relationship about games indeed. I need to mix with level design if I want to turn my works into parts of a game.

[median lodge]

HOW ??? i can't play Bee-Build without that mandatory Golden Bees !

[storm wren]

Fan art competition must give a theme, then I can have a target to try my best at least. Explore by myself only just too hard... Easy to go away from the direction people in this circle usually care about.

what's the best way to promote yourself in front of the game company you want to join? Doing fan art, showing your skills during this process is my answer.

[median lodge]

seems like a hitman vibe ;o

"i'am showing you my skill and then... CRACK ! your neck !" :x

[restive epoch]

Competition? What competition.... pushes the corpse into the wood chipper

[storm wren]

😅 I get used to take everything seriously and try my best... It's why you maybe think I'm a hitman

[grand shoal]

Does this have anything to do with my question? I mean, I only understand about 50% of it, but I can't see an answer to it: Why do you think you deserve an art book, bees, whatever, for a random piece of art?

Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying your art was "bad" or anything. I just don't see the slightest connection to EHG/LE, so I can't see why you keep asking for special treatment.

[toxic echo]

im no hiring expert and definately dont speak for EHG, but, demanding that a company makes an entire event just so you can show them your work and demanding a reward for such an event seems wildly out of touch for getting a job.

if you want EHG to hire you, put in an application on their career site

also, maybe learn their coding engine

[grand shoal]

And also don't get me wrong in terms of: We all dream of working for a gaming company I guess 😄 I can understand that part

[desert tree]

Become moderator ^^

[median lodge]

Special privileges again ! :p Nah i am way to honest and impartial, won't work

[restive epoch]

Maybe just some kind of need to be more appreciated, Im definitely not a psychologist or something like that, but I can see the reason for asking for some fan competitions... and I think having it officialy from EHG wouldnt be a bad idea either, ofc it would take some EHG's resources to manage

[storm wren]

🤔 Yeah i want to know what should I do/which level should my art to achieve if I want an artbook.

[toxic echo]

i like events, i like fan art competitions, i think they are a cool way of interacting with the community. but demanding kickstarter rewards or a job because of it is wild imo

[restive epoch]

Yea definitely 😄

[toxic echo]

and tbh, EHG is highlighting certain art that they are made aware of. the last #eterra-monthly had light up signs and a friggin actual RING. and they showed off that one person who made the actual epoch

tho the epoch mighta been used in the sign, idr

[storm wren]

I wonder

1. Can I apply it again after they rejected my application because my skills not enough for them to hire me?
2. How to confirm the direction I polish my portfolio is EHG must like to accept?

Artbook is more cheap than give someone a job.
Fan art competition is a fair chance for every player to win an artbook.

[toxic echo]

those are questions for EHG and their hiring person, not discord

[faint cape]

You can definitely always continue to apply, and keep improving your resume and portfolio

[last kayak]

The crab ring was rad

[toxic echo]

it was very cool

[grand shoal]

Just as sidenote, a professional rejection to an application **may **also be based on technical reasons tho it is something different. In the end, you'll never know 🤷‍♂️

[median lodge]

is the coffee free at EHG ? is it limited ? wont work if small cup is 3$

[toxic echo]

you work from home, so while not free, i dont think its $3 a cup unless you are buying some ridiculous at home coffee

[median lodge]

If you work from home they can add "a budget" so you can buy it, or they give your "Nes-cofee" for a month ?! "" 3$ public command ; liberian dollar or barbarian dollar are no so expensive ""

[toxic echo]

you lost me at nes-cofee and i dont want to be found

[median lodge]

i take note : ehg only give lukewarm water to employees

[merry torrent]

I mean, technically speaking if in the US and working from home you can take off work expenses on taxes. Including "Work" meals and you could probably argue coffee.

[storm wren]

do tea is more expensive in US because it's not a popular drink?

[dusky kite]

yes and dem murricans also make it in a microwave

[toxic echo]

overall probly but depends on what you are buying and adding to it. also assuming you are talking hot tea and not like...iced tea or somethin

[storm wren]

hhhh yeah I heard Americans likes drinking tea with microwave

[pearl epoch]

Is there a way to upgrade supporter packs?

[toxic echo]

only the ultimate edition thing. the other supporter packs dont

[storm wren]

But it's make sense after I learn their history and their rules on power (110v only)

[pearl epoch]

Blargh. I wonder if the mtxs will be released eventually. I got the vanquisher and then realized there was one more tier. -_-

[sleek yew]

It takes longer to make tea in 🙏 the U.S. than England, using an electric tea pot, and Americans are always in a hurry.

[toxic echo]

afaik they have no plans on releasing the supporter pack MTX as standalone stuff, but maybe in the future. you can always let em know in like #1210281911872786482 or #1210282176680169562

[pearl epoch]

Ooof. I don’t want to spend another fifty getting more of the same mtx I got before. Rough.

[toxic echo]

i dont think there is a specifically hard stance against it when it was asked before

[pearl epoch]

They definitely should make supporter packs upgradable IMo.

But ah well. What can you do?

[toxic echo]

tell them they should in #1210281911872786482 or #1210282176680169562

or make theym buyable after they leave the shop individually

[cobalt maple]

does anybody know of any way to copy an existing online character into offline?

[toxic echo]

there is no way to make online to offline, or vice versa

[pearl epoch]

Yeah. I have made the suggestion! 😄

[sleek yew]

EHG will definitely never allow offline to online and are unlikely to ever do online to offline.

[median lodge]

Don't you have tools to create thing in offline ? like grim dawn ? can't download / share character offline files?

[sleek yew]

Modders could do it. Save files can be copied.

I believe EHG doesn't care about offline "cheats", but this still isn't a place to discuss it.

[desert tree]

Correct

[median lodge]

Why isn't it the place ? if you want to play and test Offline, i got no idea what is currently existing

[cobalt maple]

I expected there would be some tools, but didnt want to resort to them, since it'd probably me more work than just copypaste my existing savefiles to play when im not at home

so what are the offline modding tools? is it possibe to discuss them here?

[median lodge]

let's go suggest an "offline" channel ^^

[sleek yew]

A moderator just said that I was correct - this is not a place to discuss them.

[restive epoch]

But discord works online 😦

[median lodge]

Sorry so true i'am so dumb ! gaettan is right it's not the place lol

[prime patio]

Does +spell lightning damage affect storm totems damage?

[dusky kite]

no because it's a minion and it uses minion stats

[tribal meadow]

Minion?

https://tenor.com/view/despicable-me-laughing-laugh-minion-popcorn-gif-5267724

[desert tree]

Because modifying anything from the game is against TOS

[tribal meadow]

Oh no, now I can't unsee the minion relation

[median lodge]

Thanks it's good to know, took me time to find a post on internet pointing it (many discussions don't mention it)

[faint cape]

No, and also tea is hugely popular

[median lodge]

@south plover "No toxicity here" -> wait 10 sec ->

[south plover]

OMG SO TOXIC

[undone rose]

If I have an effect from an item for example, that gives me +10 spell damage on my next spell that I cast directly, and if that spell that I directly cast also triggers another spell via it's (a) skill tree or (b) an item, does the triggered spell also get the +10 spell damage? Does it matter whether the triggered spell is (c) a skill that my class can learn and spec into (d) not a skill, but just an unspeccable spell specific to that triggering spell or some item?

[desert tree]

I am going to try to answer
You will get the +10 Spell Dmg (or Flat Spell) for the spell you directly casted and it's subskills. Let's take an exemple Fissure inside Smite. Fissure is a Subskill and will benefit from Flat Spell given to Smite.
Any other occurance you described, the Flat Spell will not get transfered

[surreal verge]

a) Yes, if it's a subskill with no skill tree. No if it has it's own skill tree.
b) No.
c) No.
d) No.

[undone rose]

Great, thanks!

[thorny terrace]

Is 300-350 Corruption comfy farming fairly achievable in this game even without looking at build guides?

[toxic echo]

yes

long as you are building properly, pretty much anything can get there

[thorny terrace]

Sweet, I want to try to do it more myself on my second char once new season drops

[wind vector]

Anyone know what time the Dev stream is at today?

[toxic echo]

!devstream

[ripe brook]

You can usually find Mike streaming over on our Twitch channel, (https://www.twitch.tv/lastepochgame), or our Youtube channel, (https://www.youtube.com/@LastEpochGame), where we simulcast! Streams go live on Fridays at <t:1742414400:t>! Hope to see you there!

[tribal meadow]

I fear the day when LE becomes too big and Mike's Friday streams become a thing of past, enjoy them while you can 😭

[toxic echo]

its certainly possible

[tribal meadow]

Streaming gets draining and as the community grows it will have to shift to a different style I guess

I don't play the space ninja game, but they seem to have it figured out

Warframe guys

[toxic echo]

🤷‍♂️ no sense in worrying about uncertain things you cant control

[tribal meadow]

True

[thorny terrace]

LE is so chill and good

I fear nothing

[median lodge]

Lucky you ! i fear : dying, julra T4, missing a LP 2-3 Slam, covenant of dominion, leaving an echo without picking my Atlaria Ring...

and the phoenix shrine....

[thorny terrace]

look at it this way, necessary sacrifice to enjoy the gamba

no rain no rainbow

[frail pilot]

I’d like to play full offline but still use steam cloud to sync my offline savedate across devices. Is that enabled?

[near vale]

Hey guys I'm confused about something and cant seem to find anything online that addresses this question specifically. Hopefully I'm phrasing the question correctly. I understand that faction favor is shared in the same way the stash is shared, but I also understand that starting a new character will allow you to progress favor (talking favor accumulation NOT title track progress) in an opposing faction without losing favor on another character in a different faction. My question is - if I have 2 characters in MG and then switch 1 to CoF (not start a new one), will all characters in the MG faction lose all favor or only the character that does the switching?

[median lodge]

nope

but some pointed that you can copy your local offline files, send it to yourself by mail/cloud and pick it back to your other computer

[surreal verge]

All,as favor is shared across chars. You lose everything in the bank and the bank is shared.

[median lodge]

that's crazy, didn't know flavor was shared, but loosing all your stuff for another character swiching eh?

never played mg, so didn't swich, it's confusing

[near vale]

I dont understand the logic. If I create a new character it will share the same stash but I will have the option to gain favor in an opposing faction correct?

[toxic echo]

if its in the same game mode, yes

[near vale]

So then not all favor is shared across all characters in that instance then.

[toxic echo]

or join the same faction and have the same rank and favor

if its in the same game mode, rank and favor is shared

[near vale]

So you see why I'm confused about switching characters. Which line of reasoning does the rule of switching characters follow?

Switching characters from one faction to another I mean.

[toxic echo]

you keep rank, and lose favor

cuz they mad at you for leaving

so they take your money

[near vale]

Ok but do I lose favor on just the one character?

[toxic echo]

nah the whole thing gets wiped if you leave a faction

its generally frowned upon

like you arent supposed to flip flop factions on a toon. you can, but its a penalty

[near vale]

Ok so then is this correct: all favor is shared across all characters within a faction, unless you start a new character and join a different faction, in which case you can accumulate favor in both factions without losing favor UNLESS any one character switches a faction.

[toxic echo]

all favor is shared across all chars in the same game mode within a faction

other than that yes

[near vale]

Right, let's assume we are talking about the same game mode here.

[toxic echo]

just being clear

[near vale]

Ok, is this what the developers intended? It seems like a workaround.

[toxic echo]

far as i know, this is very intended

assume it would have changed if it asnt since its been out a while

[near vale]

I had no idea you could accumulate favor on both factions.

[median lodge]

So my lvl 4 reroll, i take MG at starting town, it'll delete my 100k CoF unused favor?

[near vale]

I mean, I knew I could progress both titles.

[near vale]

From what Eagles said, it wont.

[median lodge]

yeah i am too confuse, i'll just never take MG, and hope the best for you all ^^

[near vale]

But it will delete all your favor on all toons if you "switch" a toon to another faction.

I guess it incentivizes leveling multiple characters?

[faint cape]

No, but it'll delete that favor if you join CoF at starting town, then leave it to join MG

Leaving a faction on any character deletes all favor your have with that faction

[near vale]

I wish I knew this. I leveled a character in CoF, then switched to MG, then leveled all my new characters in MG because I didn't think I could have favor in both.

[toxic echo]

as long as you never LEAVE a faction, you dont lose favor

[faint cape]

If you planned on having them all switch to MG at the end, there's no point to having them in any other faction

[median lodge]

Thanks i understand. I understand very quick, but you have to explain for long xD

[near vale]

Nice. That sounds like the simplest way to put it.

[near vale]

Nah the only reason I put them in MG was because I was afraid if I put them in CoF it would either take my other character out of MG and put him in CoF or take all my favor away. I thought faction was a game-mode wide thing since faction favor is shared as well

[faint cape]

Ah, yeah it's safe to have different characters in different factions as long as you keep them that way. Granted, losing all favor isn't necessarily a huge deal if you do need to swap, especially for MG (and you can just burn all your favor before swapping).

[near vale]

Nope. Never gonna swap again after learning this. Just going to level multiple characters in different factions.

[median lodge]

If you have a good MG char, he/she can buy items for others (for unlucky endgame cof?)

[near vale]

I think so, as long as the other characters are in MG.

[median lodge]

Need to be carefull when you swich : if all your equiped stuff has it

[near vale]

But you cant buy items on the bazaar and use them for CoF characters.

[median lodge]

Yep you can't, require good faction, but i was talking about "lvl 95 CoF but you don't found good items", so you swich

[faint cape]

tbh I don't even recommend that, it's nicer to just stick to one per cycle imo

[near vale]

The irony is that's exactly what I did. I was in COF but was looking for several Exalted with specific base types and specific tiers and I couldnt find them, so I switched to MG.

As you cant target farm them like you can uniques.

[median lodge]

Can't found any T6-T7 weapon in cof 😉

[near vale]

Then when I got to MG, the items I need cost several hundred million so I'm out of luck there, too. 😆

[median lodge]

it'll be better the 17th, if no dupe?

[near vale]

But at least the items EXIST in MG.

I dont know, I play Legacy.

[median lodge]

Economy will better 100% sure _ yeah it exist if people are willing to put that T7 flat melee cold on 2H Mace

[real flume]

Do stash tabs not persist through seasons?

[toxic echo]

no, they get moved to legacy as remove only tabs

[median lodge]

Cycle stash / materials / reputation are "dumped" to Legacy at the end of the cycle, stash are "remove only" so you can't put item in, but you don't loose anything (you can Merge materials and reput, opening stash)

[faint cape]

In legacy, they persist forever though

[median lodge]

am i healing them ?

[median lodge]

@velvet steppe maybe this ?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBCxyLOa_l0

Note that new Cycle april 17th is MASSIVE and will allow "new" builds

[thorny terrace]

Does potion health converted to ward cause you to heal less from the potion?

like if you had 100% potion health converted to ward, you'd only get ward?

[median lodge]

potions feels useless if you have tons of hp, the amount is flat so you "Should" get the same amount ?

i am not aware of the benefice / tricks / synergies existing whit that affixe

[native sail]

@outer saddle

[outer saddle]

Wow that seems great, thanks

Would having 2 of them stack?

[native sail]

Yep

It's kinda funny

[outer saddle]

Ah times like this I wish you can have a trade site for me to check price

Should be pretty cheap I guess (hope)

[native sail]

Generally they're not super expensive if they aren't capped on mana and crit chance

(Blame Sorc players for that one lmao)

[outer saddle]

Btw is there an example of bis gloves for this ring?

[crimson oxide]

do we know what day we're getting patch notes yet?

[sleek yew]

11th

[crimson oxide]

yippeee, thanks

[native sail]

Proooobably not? I'm not sure of how many people have tested them, most people are meta-chasers

[faint cape]

Correct

[wide sentinel]

random twitch chat

FACT

[south plover]

i mean they aren't wrong lol

[thorny terrace]

On the 11th, I've heard

[wide sentinel]

11 april patchnotes

[outer saddle]

Can someone please point me to a good guide/vid on how to rank up the factions fast? MG specifically

[earnest garden]

XP = favor
Earning Favor = faction rank
Spending Favor = faction rank

[vapid kernel]

Question for you guys, i put a legendary item into the nemesis mechanic and empowered it the first time. The item got 2 LP. If I empower again, will it potentially add more LP to that or completely reroll the extra thing on it?

[inner mountain]

It can get more but is very unlikely

You'll never lose anything by empowering again

[surreal verge]

It will either do nothing or add more LP.

[storm wren]

Vlad asked a good question. I guess it'll belong to per character 🤔

But I hope it'll shared as same as flavour, per stash

[winged ginkgo]

the stat "increase cast speed for totem" is MY cast speed when i cast a totem, or the cast speed of the totem?

[desert tree]

Should be for your totem

[desert tree]

This is for your totem

[desert tree]

The red part is for you summoning them

[winged ginkgo]

where is that from?

[desert tree]

Inside Thorn Totem

[storm wren]

I never play their weaver's passive tree so I have no idea which one is more interesting for players, per stash or per character.
Hope EHG find the correct answer.

Sustain level on multiple characters are important for how much fun we can get

What imprint slots do?

[desert tree]

You put an item in it
And you have a chance to get a bunch of "similar" items on kill

[storm wren]

😂 Sounds interesting that I can copy a bunch of "similar" items on kill. What "similar" items means?

[desert tree]

You will get a bunch of item with 1 or more matching characteristics

[storm wren]

oh... do it like you've done single prophecy about single item type?

[desert tree]

Kinda

[storm wren]

So we don't have single way to farm single item type soon. We can do prophecies or farm weaver's echoes

🤔 Ok great, it add more layers on gameplay in endgame

I farmed prophecies for too long time and I want more ways to get items I want indeed

[rugged helm]

are there any tricks for this? Or do I just have to grind corruption on every monolith?

[desert tree]

You have to raise your Corruption

But when you enter a new timeline you should have a Catchup Shade of Orobyss spawning really close to get you to your highest Corruption

[rugged helm]

I see so it will take a while

[desert tree]

Best way is to get 1 timeline to 300 C

So that way you can get to 300C on all your timelines really quick

[rugged helm]

oh I see I will try that wonder if my build can handle thanks

[desert tree]

@storm wren
@night kiln

Its time stamped to the Imprit section

[storm wren]

Hope they give us more details on "imprint slots"

I want to confirm what advantages these imprint slots can bring

[storm wren]

@zinc haven I don't understand what Mike have answered in the stream to be honest

I lack of imagination

[outer saddle]

can someone explain this node to me please? do you still need to boost Forged Strike's chance to summon Forged Weapons still?

[zinc haven]

lets say you have an item thats close to what you want, it just has 1 wrong affix and the wrong item base. so you go imprint that and keep dropping similar ones.
then maybe you dropped one that is the correct item base but still has that wrong affix. so you imprint the new one and get items that are even more close to what you want. and you just do that until you have the exact item you want

[storm blaze]

No

It will just summon the weapon

[storm wren]

🤔 I want to know which cost we need to pay on the process and which difference in different imprint slots

A few hierarchies included I guess

[zinc haven]

i'm not sure but i dont think the imprinting itself costs something and the different slot are for different item types and have different conditions on when the similar items drop

[desert tree]

Yeah, chance to summon inside Forge Strike do nothing here

You can focus on giving benefits to your Weapons

[storm wren]

🤔 we have limited points so we can pick 1 in 4 or 5 I guess, that's the cost

[outer saddle]

Ok thanks all

[storm wren]

Double types of imprint slots in the weaver's tree too, they're 100% different

We don't know will Tri ask this type of stuff...

[real quail]

Does ghostflame (channeling skill) get bonus from castspeed? I saw old topics where people said "no", but tooltip shows increased damage with adding castspeed stat

[toxic echo]

Tooltip dumb do not use.

Cast speed only helpa the initial animation on channeled spells

Unless there is a node inside ghostflame tree that converts cast speed into something else

[halcyon dust]

Does corruption increase Nemesis upgrade chance and quality or not?

[proper owl]

So, thought of getting into the game, but looking at the classes I'm kind of struggling to decide which one I'd pick?
What are they all roughly about? The wiki is really unhelpful

[surreal verge]

No, that’s tied to area level

[surreal verge]

The wiki might as well not exist, use LeTools.
Anyway:
primalist is totems, companions, and elemental melee.
Mage is elemental of different flavours, melee magic and mana stacking
Rogue is speed, crits, arrows, throwing skills, and an unkillable bird.
Acolyte is DoTs, curses, health management, and undead minions.
Sentinel is shields, void magic, weapons as minions, and anything holy

[proper owl]

Got it, thank you

[hushed skiff]

If I choose empower on the Nemesis it doesn't upgrade the stats that already exist on uniques right? It only adds a new stat and upgrades that?

[halcyon dust]

So technically I get the same chances more or less with Nemesis 700 corruption or 100 corruption?

[surreal verge]

It’s the same chance from corruption 100 to 10000

[surreal verge]

Yes, either adds LP or adds random affixes onto it like a legendary craft

[halcyon dust]

Got the message. Get to corruption 10001 and get super loot 👍

[spark lake]

There are any way to change how Dodge Rating work with any unique? This stats is basically godtier in mapping but useless in bossing because one hit is enough to kill you no matter how many Dodge chance you have, so you just pray to dodge every hit in every boss fight, pretty frustrating

[desert tree]

Foot of the Mountain

Change Dodge into Endurance Threshold

[spark lake]

the endurance one?

since i play rogue and have 20DR by moving, this item is pretty sad to equip imo

[hushed skiff]

What is LP?

[storm blaze]

Legendary potential

[median lodge]

When you go to the same restaurant and always eat the same meal :: "As usual sir ?"

[lavish dew]

Don't underestimate endurance threshold, it can be pretty strong

[spark lake]

@lavish dew I tried a 60% endurance 2K5 health fully capped build, inferior to any ward build sadly

60% is strong in theory, but when you can get 12K ward, 60% is weak since it's 2k5 health with 60% endurance is literraly 6K25 eHP

[winged ginkgo]

what's the best between falconer ballista and storm totem shaman?

[desert tree]

Falconer most likely

[winged ginkgo]

but how do i solve mana problem?

[velvet steppe]

If im going to create an offline character, which class can withstand high corruption levels and has aoe skills

[storm wren]

It's me to be honest

[desert tree]

Depends on the class and build

Usually you need to generate mana with a skill

Or not spend any

[uncut mesa]

Guys my 1.0 legacy character in which i havent played in a year is extremely bugged. Or I am very dumb. Can anyone help.

[median lodge]

passive points are reseted,check t his, + go in your stash and "" Merge"" all reputations and materials

[desert tree]

https://discord.com/channels/368953963267096586/1260279433772662854

This?

[uncut mesa]

no no i already did that. My skills have all been reset. Like my active skills. And i cant unlock them.

oh wait

nvm reinvesting passives might fix it

thank you

[desert tree]

Yup

[soft flint]

question i played the first league and have like 30 stashes full of uniques/leggys and stuff. do i need to buy stashes in Inifitum again??

[hexed wasp]

ok i need to pull from the communal brain. I'm doing a glass canon sham ST build. i just upgraded my helm to go from attune and res to attune and mana (and one less skill point to minion) i checked what point changed and it was just one that gave more crit multi. absolutely nothing has changed outside of a helm upgrade(of same leg helm just better stats) the situation prior to change storm totem consumed no mana on storm bolt use(i got the node that converts it and had it prior to swap) once i changed to the better helm now ever attack by ST consumes mana. i tried swapping back to the original helm and it now consumes mana on that helm as well. heres the character profile https://www.lastepochtools.com/profile/legionone/character/legionnine. and again nothing changes beside better stats on helm and loss of 1 minion skill point of which just effect minion crit multi. TLDR swapped to better version of helm and now ST consumes mana on attack

[uncut mesa]

what am i supposed to do in here

[hexed wasp]

did u kill all mobs there and fisih quest if so just tp out

[uncut mesa]

well the quest isnt finished but yes i killed all the mobs

[hexed wasp]

this is the item change

if the quest bugged and didnt count u killing the target you have to rreload the area and redo the fight

[outer saddle]

what am I supposed to do with duplicate uniques/legendaries? vendor only, or there's some scrapping method?

[uncut mesa]

why i joined merchant guild idk

legion is it possible your skill has a like if you have no mana this skill is free or smth

[hexed wasp]

depending on how a new crafting mech of season 2 works dups of uni can be used on "crafting" versions of same uni

[hexed wasp]

also prior to "new bug" i was always at max mana

[median lodge]

Because you are new to the game and there is a lot to learn / understand ^^ not a problem, you can change faction ((but it will reset your favor be carefull)

[uncut mesa]

i am very dumb and havent played in a while and never played druid. is it possible one of your other armor pieces require you to have a certain amount of points allocated to storm totem for it to be free.

[hexed wasp]

nothing like that

litterally the only change is i swapped t1 fire res for t6 mana on helm and lost 1 skill point for minions of which just lowers crit multi and has no effect om cost

[desert tree]

This is the wrong basement

[uncut mesa]

why do you think its supposed to be free in the first place

[uncut mesa]

which baement

oh theres more than one

[desert tree]

The left photo you sent, it's in a "basement".

Yup

[uncut mesa]

facepalm

[desert tree]

Rn not much
In s2 you can use the extra to reroll your uniques

[desert tree]

Storm Totem, if it uses Gathering Storm and you have Excited Bolts specced into, is supposed to consume some of your mana
