[faint cape]

I think most of us do, too. After all, them doing well means we get more fun out of the game. 😁

[native sail]

I'unno.
As I have said plenty of times, my reasoning for dropping LE is very straightforward; I was sold a product with the promise that I would not be paying for playable content further down the line, they broke that so I don't want to continue supporting it myself. If others want to then by all means, enjoy, I hope it lives up to your expectations.

[shy turret]

in this general chat? why multiple times. just leave your feedback in #feedback and gtfo

[waxen sundial]

There’s been very reasonable situations arising that more than explain themselves as to why this is going on. Sorry you don’t want to support a great game with great devs because they broke your pinky promise because they were hemorrhaging money.

[clear laurel]

Isnt that what we want though, Look what lowering standards has done for the gaming industry? People didnt fight against microtransactions for quite awhile and it got completely out of control and normalized, Id rather Gamers abandon games that do this sort of thing if that meant companies and execs got a clue and stopped doing this.

What Deias said is perfectly reasonable, If I cant expect a company to stand by their word and honor what they say then I shouldnt be supporting them or giving them my time or money, nor should I be recommending them anywhere. How is that not common sense?

[zealous spoke]

i completely understand this, yet i am still willing to look past the small flaws and look at the game as it is. a great opportunity to enjoy and grow. if you do not wish to support it, that is your choice. i hope you find a better game then to play and support. i wish you well

[clear laurel]

Right and thats the proper response to this! |
Not Belittling people for having different standards.
I Personally dont care that much if you still want to support it. But Both sides have a toxic side to them.
One mans trash as they say, Its a small flaw to some a bigger one to others, Who's to say you're wrong to feel the way you do?
But the Way People jump at the defense here and belittle others as if their reason has no merit is the real issue for me

You said your piece respectfully which should be the norm for this sort of thing

[zealous spoke]

to me everyone is entitled to their opinions, and there are no right or wrong answers. besides games are meant to be fun and to help us enjoy the world that is created. whether or not the game is around for a long time or a short time. i just want it to be memorable. great games take time and patience.

[native sail]

Gods forbid I stick to my own standards judging by some others, I'll go put on my giant shoes and honk my nose in the mirror I s'pose.

[zealous spoke]

i will honk right with you!

[native sail]

We get any larger I might need to look into getting one of those funny little cars

[arctic scarab]

Ignoring broken promise, what a lot of people don't understand is the future (and that is why they said game is dead). So they release first paid content. What will happen if they do not sell enough of it? What is next - will new skills for classes be paid? Expansions? QoL?
Also selling paid class does not fix the core problem of the game - they have really bad MTX design, barring few exceptions.
How can they progress to be viable down the line when they do not want (seemingly) to fix the main issue? Because I have not seen even 1 try to remedy the MTX situation. Just a simple survey with "hey guys here are 10 different MTXs/MTX designs; which would you buy?" to gauge who from their team does appealing designs.

Also I would add that announcing new paid DLC class when some of the classes are still missing their skills, is considered scummy by a lot of ppl

[storm wren]

https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/your-cosmetic-feedback-could-shape-what-s-next-in-last-epoch/79970

EHG have asked feedback for mtx, but maybe this question can't help so much for their art team

Your question is more accurately... Pictures always better than words when asking anything relevant to visual effects

[arctic scarab]

Yes that was general "give us feedback" post, when people were leaving feedback constantly.
So what came out of it? Which MTX we got that were product of that "survey"? Are they still being made?

[fallen parcel]

You know a game that has been called dead and still kicking ass dota 2 even when valve stopped supporting the game and it takes forever for a balance patch and we wnt from 30-40 million at the international of dota 2 way more money than league and others but community was going hard ,valve just said we are gonna focus on deadlock and good luck.

Like we lucky if we pulling 5 mill from international nowadays. No matter what people will always gloom and say whatever but at the end the reality is another

I say I am gonna enjoy the game I am playing as long as its fun and good. What do you think after so many years of successful arpg MAKING GGG couldn't launch POE 2 with all the features and QOL they are doing now, I am sorry launch was garbo 2 weeks in and the market was completely out of whack ,balance,rarity problems ,chaos problems and lots more but hey game was fun so give it another chance later on when its more refined. No excuses for either ehg and ggg when they mess up gotta be fair in life . EHG does need to stop saying stuff thats 1 year away or more like announce stuff when its 2 months before launch that way there is less speculation and more facts

[vernal sail]

Is there a way to scale fire and bleed damage to do more per hit?

[icy drift]

Like ignite and bleed? The only thing they'd have in common is the fact that they're damage over time

So outside of things like generic increased damage over time not really. You'd need to mostly scale them separately

You can convert one into the other with something like hubris gloves though , which makes it a lot easier to scale since you only need to scale one

Guys, I still need 78k reputation for my last rank in the weaver ranks to be able to buy the lost cache echo. How can i get that the fastest? Run cemetery of reweaving with lostwood follies and spend the amber on more echoes?

this quest bugged for me, i portaled out it reset the zone but its doing it again

i talked to all 5 statues and klilled the spawned mobs

[hardy forum]

i don't remember this quest, but I wonder whats down to southeast? There is some unexplored area there

Inspect quests usually trigger by just running around

[oblique stone]

invisible wall, also door didnt open but still walked thru

[hardy forum]

damn. I can't help you then, sorry mate, maybe someone else knows

[oblique stone]

all g, ill restart my client and see if that works

ty

[hardy forum]

I hope it works

[oblique stone]

restarting the game worked

[hardy forum]

awesome. I also need help with an issue. As soon as I alt-tab out of the game and back, it doesn't recognize my mouse, and brings up this on screen keyboard for some reason, and I have to restart the game

seems like the issue was caused by my other monitors plugged in but not used. Works now

[hardy forum]

@blazing glacier happy to report some progress. I've crafted a few mid LP2 items with T7T5 exalts (enigma and blood gloves), and also a reforged ring. I could therefore remove some of my idols i was using for resistance and could add some more dmg ones. I have also increased my spell crit chance from 91% to 99% with one of the T5 exalt slams. I think I now have around 20% more damage than before, and I've just gotten the boss down to 15%, and again died becuase I had nowhere else to go, but I'm getting more consistent at getting it down to 50% + shield, and just dodging in general and the timings and positionings are better now

thanks for all the help dude!

[hardy forum]

I'VE DONE IT!!! I BEAT UBER ABERROTH!!!!

Ayyy

[finite jungle]

If you summon an Abomination & it eats all your minions (skeletons, golem, etc), but then some extra skeletons spawn...do those skeletons override the previous minions it ate or does it just ignore those???

Also, if you happen to hit the Channel for the Abominatnion again...after you made it...does that reset it & you have to do all your summons again?

[faint cape]

Depends on if they are absorbed as part of the summon or after. If they are part of the summon, they are added to the pile (I'm not sure what happens nowadays when you go over 20 minions). If it's after the summon, your abom just kills them to heal itself.
Yes, if you channel it again, it starts over from scratch.

[robust niche]

I’m level 12 COF, never played MG. If I switch, will I still be able to wear my COF exalts?

[storm blaze]

No

[finite jungle]

If you look at them, it should tell you the faction/rank you need to be to wear them.

[robust niche]

Thank you guys, same with legendaries?

[storm blaze]

As long as the item is tagged with COF (in bototm right corner when you mouse over it if I remember it right) you can't wear it while you're not a member of cof

[wanton lodge]

hello comming later in this season ? can u recommand me some build , looking for something strong to push corruption and farming since i will play only a bit want something to grind fast and well 🙂

[vital gale]

What sort of builds do you enjoy?

[wanton lodge]

i played only forgeguard in s1 and s2 , ususualy like big aoe cleaning , played hammeradin , and then erasing strike

[vital gale]

Maybe try Warpath? That's quite strong and has a big AoE

[wanton lodge]

already tried warpath cause it was pretty close to erasing strike i got the perfect needle for erasing strike i remember x)

and other than paladin ?

[vital gale]

Maybe something like a Reflect Shaman?

Very similar to RF from PoE if you know that

Clears screens around you

100% getting a nerf next season too

So now is the best it'll likely be for a long time if not ever

[wanton lodge]

looks cool ! the fact that i told u i played 2 spam 1 button build and when i look at the build on maxroll i see :

Not Many Skill Options
Optimal Play Is Very Spammy

yhea that's me

[vital gale]

Nice

You can also play it as a Paladin but you said no Paladin XD

Paladin is more tanky and Shaman is more damage

Both are good on damage and defence though regardless

[wanton lodge]

u have a good build for it ? i usualy aim for maxroll guide endgame since i'm casual juste want to bash but if the optimal is not the same tell me !

[vital gale]

I don't no, I don't use guides personally and not actually played it myself

Maxroll guide should be fine though

[wheat mauve]

can someone help me beat the Tier 4 sanctum boss so i can put these upgrades on my gear? i keep dying. Someone that can can kill her fast preferred.

[icy drift]

I would but I don't have the retail game installed right now sorry. Honestly though if you can't beat T4 julra you likely have a lot of things you can improve before needing to slam uniques

[wheat mauve]

I want to play the build I want to play, I’m trying to switch from a leveling build to a end game one

[icy drift]

Is there an item you need to slam before being able to switch over?

pretty rare for that to be the case

[wheat mauve]

I only have 2 keys left so was asking if someone could help me, I go back to work for a whole week tomorrow so just wanted to play it before I leave, yes I have to have mana on items, I’m playing mana flay lich

[icy drift]

legacy or season?

[wheat mauve]

Season

[icy drift]

rip

what's your leveling build?

surprised you can't kill T4 julra with it if you followed a guide

[wheat mauve]

same, first time really playing this game though

harvest flay, trying to switch to mana variant

[icy drift]

ah that explains it

yeah harvest and flay are pretty darn weak outside of the mana stacking build

Hopefully you can find someone who can help you out. You're in a pretty rare position tbh

anyone been getting like no nemesis's or just me?

i think its a bug but i dont really know, cuz they came back for a bit when i restarted my game then i couldnt find them again after a while

[spark locust]

Hey guys, I have just reinstalled LE some days ago and wanted to give it a real try. I played the game when it initially released but it was during a period with no real time to spare.
So I never really got into the game then; I've made my mind up playing a spinny Void Knight, currently sitting at level 34. I was browsing around sites like MR and LET but I can't seem to find a decent loot filter nor guide as I feel going without one will screw me over because of the skillleveling mechanic. Would any of you mind sharing a Void Knight loot filter for early gameplay and the campaign with me, it would be greatly appreciated ❤️

[storm blaze]

Honestly last time I played warpath VK I just didn't bother with a proper loot filter until later game
Also the skills level fast enough when you swap them because they get extra experience if they're lower lvl
you could just look for sentinel lvling guide but those are probably just paladin lvling and then changing to the actual build at a later lvl (you can swap masteries these days in End of Time)

But you can just basically follow the end game skills
but instead of going for the mana cost stuff you might want to go for the mana cost reduction on warpath because you can't really sustain it if you go for the AoE + mana cost until later

[spark locust]

Okay, that really is helpful to know, thank you! Regarding the items and item filter stuff, do I just ignore most of the items and let them rot on the ground as their resell value is that bad? And only shatter them if they have 4 affixes?

[storm blaze]

I wouldn't pick most items yeah
I'd shatter ones that have affixes that you might want later
not just 4 affix ones

[desert tree]

I think it's because you skip a line after suggestion

Try
Title : xxxxx

Suggestion : 1. Xxxx
2. Xxxx

[storm wren]

....emmmmmm

Thank you so much.

It's a point worth to tell CM definitely :(

[faint cape]

After you've gotten higher level nemeses, going back into lower levels will limit the number you can get (like 3 max). This only affects campaign. When you go to the monolith or back up to the higher level campaign areas again, it will return to normal.

If I imprint a Primordial Unique in the Weaver Tree will it work or is there some restriction that Primordial Uniques can only drop from Primal Beast encounters?

well...Players need somewhere to express their mood.

Not a good announcemnet. Everyone agree that.

[blazing glacier]

Imprint only drop global drops

[covert sparrow]

Some of this is warranted but a lot of it is actually not related to the game itself

At least not yet

No benefit for us to see le to shut down too 🤔 poe 2 will just swallow the remain market if le die

Are you the FrozenSentinel from Youtube; the author of the Frost Claw sorcerer build?

[blazing glacier]

My worry is that the backlash is so severe that it actually has some self fulfilling prophecy effect

[blazing glacier]

Indeed

[covert sparrow]

Oh, I followed your guides last season - they were great. Thank you very much for your content! 😁

[hardy forum]

@covert sparrow I follow his stuff too, the LB runemaster vilatria spoon mage build is insane. I have now respecialized my char to his other mage build video about the T-Pose autobomber mage, it's cool too 😄

[blazing glacier]

Thats more of a meme build tbh but its fun, uber viable meme build I guess

[hardy forum]

yeah, mine is uber weak so no chance for uber with it 😄 But it clears echos superfast at 700C with many many INT missing (I have 1 Red Ring with some stupid affix like increased phy damage, and another stupid affix on my Shattered Worlds, so I'm already missing 32 int which is quite a lot 😄 Also only have 80% spell crit because my SW is only 3% crit, but it's still fun 😄

[hardy forum]

I asked Claude to summarize all this drama for me, and this is what it said. I just recently bought the game (like 1 month ago), and been enjoying offline mode, so I was unaware about all this drama. Is what the AI said an accurate representation of what's going on? https://claude.ai/share/739e6cf8-ae18-4190-aec8-a4b98dfac1e9

[blazing glacier]

I would like to take a moment to appreciate the irony of an AI summary of this particular issue 😆

But yeah thats fair

[hardy forum]

thanks! It's a shame because these things are actually important to me, and now that I fell in love with the game, it's tough to swallow...

[candid elm]

I'd like to note for #1 that EHG did delay the release of Season 2. It was moved to April 17 so that it didn't so closely coincide with a PoE2 new League. https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/last-epoch-season-2-new-launch-date-april-17th/74982. No one is talking about that anymore. Pretty old news.

#2, #3, and most recently #4 are what people are talking about.

#3 is what FrozenSentinel was referring to as irony.

I don't recall what #5 is about. But I don't think anyone is talking about that. Also sounds like old news whatever that is.

[blazing glacier]

Just my opinion but don't let this ruin the game for you if you enjoy it. Just enjoy the game for what it is now and worry about the future when it comes. Its ultimately just a video game that we play in our free time to have fun and chat with friends and so on. If that stops being true for you its okay to move on, if not, no reason to cut something off you love for fear that it might end some day

The wudi thing was pretty minor footnote tbh, even the delay thing with S2 I think EHG came off looking really good from that in the end

[candid elm]

Yeah delaying the release a couple weeks was the right call. It gave people who wanted to play PoE 2 some time to do that. I'm sure there were some people upset about it. Someone is always upset at something. But overall I think it was positive

[hardy forum]

yeah, I'm with you on that one. I'll enjoy the game until I find it to be fun and I have a good time. Most games I used to play I got bored a lot earlier before they went to shit. And those that went to shit, I kept playing until I found it fun. Luckily there is an abundance of games now, so I know that when I'm done with LE, I'll find something else 😄

[blazing glacier]

If I was to guess the source of anger, maybe like 30% krafton, 30% paid classes, maybe 5% road map, 10% general state of game issues like bugs, balance, lack of whatever and 25% feedback loop of angry stuff ruining the mood and pulling more into doom posting and amplifying it

[candid elm]

Salt in a little bit of angry "AI first" posts

[sonic quail]

I've seen youtuber called Frosty and I thought it was you 😭

[hardy forum]

Question about LPL: Does that influence both the LP at the drop of the unique, and the chance for Nemesis empower, or do those two things have different tables?

The reason I'm asking is because I want to kind of calculate which item to focus on next, and I'd rather start with the ones that are somewhat common and easier to add LP to. It seems like Shattered Worlds with a 20% Uberroth drop rate, and a 1 in 8 LP1 chance means that I have to kill Uberroth on average 40x to get one to 1LP from a drop, not counting nemesis, but nemesis also bricks the items here with a 7 in 8 chance. So technically each drop has 2 opportunities to be an LP1. Once at drop and once at Nemesis.

So the math:

• Every 5th Uberroth kill gives 1 SW
• Every 8th of those drops is 1LP at drop
• Out of the other 7, each has a 1 in 8 chance to be 1LP.

So in theory on average, from 8x SW drops, I will get 2x that are one LP, (one from drop and one from Nemesis rounded up), and have 6x that are bricked with shit affixes. Did I get that right?

If I use this table for my rough maths:

[blazing glacier]

Yep same. I originally got pulled into LE because it felt like they really cared about the players. They put so much time and effort into the community, and the community was one of the best I've ever been part of. Take Mike and others who've put countless hours into patiently interacting with the community, even when it's difficult like now, even in their own free time. How many of us do the same for our careers?

Even the design choices they made were player first. No studio puts that much effort into QoL and they actively get excited about new novel QoL features.

They also generated such awesome ideas that were fairly novel to the genre like the LP system, item factions etc.

The people who did these things are still part of EHG, and still care. That's how I ended up with 3k+ hours anyway.

I think people try too hard to put things into a particular box. A happens because B. But rarely is there so little nuance.

[hardy forum]

Makes sense. As a business owner, I understand the move to paid classes, because with a game, if you sell it once you are not getting any more revenue per player, and people (I think) mostly buy cosmetics in MMOs, where there is some status added to it, not so much in solo RPGs. I might be wrong. It feels like any game that works long term has to have a recurring revenue model per player, otherwise there will be no more revenue. I understand they made a promise at the kickstarter, but it's very difficult to live up to and there has to be some symmetry. If we are getting constant updates, seasons, new features like the cemeteries and rifts, there has to be something they get in return, and they need money to survive. If it was just 1.0 with no new features, maybe some bug fixes, etc. the one-time payment makes sense. For ongoing game dev and updates, there has to be an ongoing payment, otherwise it's not sustainable

I think paid classes are an okay middleground between keeping the base game and updates free, and getting some recurring revenue. We will see how they execute it

[sonic quail]

I wonder how companies decide to price at this point

like If you sell cheaper, you can sell more
but If you sell expensive, you sell less but it's the same?

[hardy forum]

There is probably a bunch of data they can go off from to find the highest profit crossover point

[storm wren]

Not pay to win is fine. Don't kill your game by a bad choice.

[blazing glacier]

My personal take is that EHG tried too hard to be everything to everyone. They tried to give us everything all the time while also treating their devs much better than the legal minimum (at least my understanding from what EHG devs have said and the job descriptions). They tried to deliver stuff that may not make immediate profit but would make existing players happy. They prioritized things like BiS loot filters, stash management, etc. Over other more instant profit options.

They promised extremely optimistic business model and features and new skills and good looking base skills and armor over fancy paid cosmetics, etc.

[hardy forum]

It seems like they delivered on those things really well!

I also like the complexity of the game. It's not too complex, not too simple, feels just right for my taste. And the crafting system is a chef's kiss, it's so good

[sonic quail]

I hope they don't want to get revenge for this 😭 this is like beginning of story

btw do you know what will happen to experimental affixes?

[night locust]

The ideals behind EHG crashed against the market. They can still deliver, but they are doing compromises - which is expected imho. Reason why i'm baffled some people didn't see it coming. They literally told us it was either this or wrapping it up, and no on in their brain closes its own company and fires everyone when they have a way to make things stay afloat. How they're going to manage this is what counts, but many people have already made up their mind apparently.

[sonic quail]

hate is easy

and people just need something to hate and feel better bcs of their bad days

[finite peak]

yup and nowadays they hate who there favourite content creator tells them to hate

[toxic echo]

but i dont have a fav CC. is that why i dont hate anyone?

weird

[finite peak]

must be

[night locust]

I can get why people are mad. I'm not happy about class DLC but mostly because i think there were easier ways to generate money that aren't affecting gameplay directly.

However only one thing counts to me, i have fun with LE and i don't woth D4 and PoE/2. So that's where i'm gonna spend my time

[native ravine]

Is there somehow possible to delete previous seasonal stash tabs, what are empty alrdy or can’t at all?

[desert tree]

Pretty sure you can't

[hardy forum]

why do you want to delete them if they are empty?

[desert tree]

The real question is : why do you empty them?

[native ravine]

I lifted one completely empty to legacy stash tab

Just good to have in one place good items

And when I have some good build plan on season I’ll just go legacy, looking up tash what good can be build with this unique and then back to seasons to get right items what might work, but now they keep all tash tabs previous seasons what are empty and kinda meh 🫤

[hardy forum]

@blazing glacier could you please add a note to the Fractured Crown forging guide that the item needs to have forging potential left in order to use Rune of Ascendance? I created a good helmet and Rune of Creationed it so I have 2x, and I couldn't ascend it anymore 😄 😄 😄

[blazing glacier]

I dont think you can do anything when FP is 0 though, other than shatter I guess right?

[hardy forum]

Yeah, but it doesn't say it anywhere and I totally forgot 😄 I'm somewhere between 100-200 hours 😄

[blazing glacier]

Idk it's really weird. I've gotten hate on both sides recently, been called a shill by people who think im not critical enough and a doomer by those who think im too critical. Im sure this is sometimes true but I dont think the recent stuff is driven by content creators

[chrome quail]

I know the whole situation, and I can appreciate player anger, and LE is/has been my favorite game of this type BY FAR, but my main issue that really hit home this past go around was the (relatively) small amount of content. I played it a ton, leveled three or four characters, even took a shot at trying to do my own build free of guides. That part was a lot of fun but I was always running out of cash for MG lol. Either way, there are other games in the world. My hope is to one day buy all the ARPG developers and create the most absurd meta-arpg by combining all of them. this has been my bored at work rant, thank you.

[lone mortar]

The leprechaun known as raxxx you mean?

[storm wren]

Because maybe I don't want to keep these exalted items or legendary items anymore. Why I can't create or delete them for free? (I mean on actions)

[dapper moth]

Hey I'm starting to do corruption echoes and I'm having a really hard time not just kinda dying instantly to most bosses. I'm playing a lich build that has about 40% armour, capped resistances, 100% crit avoidance and just under 1500 health (but I usually have an extra 1700-ish ward) but in this particular instance I took nearly double my max hp in a single damage instance. I'm not exactly sure what I can do to boost my survivability besides just hope I can find more hp, so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

[hardy forum]

Hey, I'm not familiar with the build, but not sure what do you mean by 40% armor? What's the number before the 40%?

[dusk helm]

I supported this game because of their monetization promises. Now they are selling out can I get a refund?

[dapper moth]

This is what I mean by 40% armour - that's the physical damage reduction I get (I know it's only 29% against non-physical)

And this is whilst I'm in a lvl 100 area to be clear

[hardy forum]

I don't think that's how armor works. Armor reduces all kinds of damage thrown at you, but it seems like you have a decent amount. I have the same armor and I run 1k corruption. However, I have 5-6k ward

So one way to boost survivability would be more ward and Strength as that gives armor as well as other things. Also, you can just kill the monsters before they kill you, and over time you will get a lot better at knowing what to dodge and what you can tank

If you make a planner of your build, we can probably give you better advice

[dapper moth]

I don't have an issue killing random enemies, it's generally only bosses (and the occasional possessed champion) that give me trouble. Also I've never made a planner for a build before, is there somewhere I can do that?

[icy drift]

That is how armour works

It's only 70% effective vs non physical hits

[native ravine]

i deicede to make this season, lets go hype hype hypeee🥰

[blazing glacier]

I forget which attack that is but some of the woven abilities do hit hard. All of the woven stuff is generally optional side content that you choose to add / do, tombs are harder than what you will encounter in normal echos. Idk about that build but that isn't enough EHP to block some big attacks that are meant to be avoided by everyone except real tanky bois

Its fine to just ignore them until you are stronger

[hardy forum]

@blazing glacier I watched your video on LP and rolls and which one to do first, and I'm kind of confused here a bit. This video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ei0_6_G8Rjo

I get it for low LP level items like Ladle or Enigma, because there you are aiming for a high LP, like 3 or 4, so the high LP is pretty rare, and the items themselves are in abundance, so you can have a bunch of 0 and 1 LP ones and slam them together for a good roll, and only take a handful of them to the nemesis-turtle loop. Makes sense.

However, I don't get it why that makes sense for higher LP level items. Let's take a Red Ring for example, and let's say I just want a 1LP Red Ring with good rolls, then I slam a max INT exalt on it.

The ring itself is pretty hard to get, and according to the LPL table, at level 100, there is a 1 in 8 chance to roll 1 LP on it with Nemesis, 7 of 8 will become a probably useless legendary. So in that case, my first priority seems to be to figure out which one out of the 8 will become a 1LP item, and then slam the other 7 that became legendaries into it, and then slam the exalt. Same for Shattered Worlds. It seems like the item itself is rare to get and hard to make even 1 LP, so there it would also make sense to egg them first, and then slam the legendary bricks into the 1LP one.

So to me it seems like the strat is different for low and high LPL items, and I have absolutely no idea what about mid LPL items. I guess it depends on which one is your bottleneck, how many items you have or how many eggs you've got.

Am I missing something here?

[blazing glacier]

For items that you would only ever go for 1LP it doesnt matter since is guaranteed

For mid LPL 2LPs it depends.

[hardy forum]

I see

Depends on the roll range, drop chance and LPL chance?

[blazing glacier]

If you roll after you roll everything but you dont waste exalt each failure

[hardy forum]

I'm not concerned about the exalts

[blazing glacier]

If you have a bad rolled 0fp exalt and a bad rolled 2LP you could just slam since you'd want to roll the exalt anyway probably

You either go for perfect slam input, or you dont care and try to make perfect output

[hardy forum]

okay, let's assume I have a perfect slam input. 16 INT, 30% movement speed for boots

Let's say I have 4 of those already in stash

and I have a bunch of TelfUns with all kinds of rolls 6-12 int and 15-18% movement speed, all 0 LP

[blazing glacier]

Why do you even have 0LP non perfect rolls in the first place though

[hardy forum]

they drop like that 😄

or rune of ascendance 😄

[blazing glacier]

Right you either pick up perfect roll 0LP for egg, or you pick up LP of any roll for turtle or strife

0LP bad roll you gonna waste so much time

[hardy forum]

Okay, so 0LP bad roll is only useful to slam into other 0LP bad roll? 😄

[blazing glacier]

Yeah it is but I wouldnt do that for telfun

Its a global drop that is too high LP to infinite recycle like ladle

[hardy forum]

Yeah, I know, just an example. Maybe The 4% crit chance gloves blood mage stuff is a better example

[blazing glacier]

Sure I picked up 4% 0LP and any 1LP+

[hardy forum]

I managed to make 4x 0LP 4% ones

[blazing glacier]

I ended up hitting the slam on an imperfect unique and exalt

[hardy forum]

some I picked up, some I slammed

[blazing glacier]

Then Strifed into perfect

Okay super simple math is like this. Let's say the exalt has a 1 in 3 chance to be acceptable, same with unique. You can roll exalt with refine, then unique on average you only get to slam every 1 in 3 if you roll first.

Then assume you roll after, now its 1 in 9 to be good roll because you doing them both at same time

But its 1 in 3 to hit slam

[hardy forum]

That's interesting, I haven't thought of just slamming a bad exalt on and then making it good later.

[blazing glacier]

Problem is you are multiplying the exalt chance by the unique chance. If the chance for good exalt is really low you now need to use uniques to reroll it instead of refinement, basically

[hardy forum]

My idea was to wait with the exalt slam until I have the perfect unique base with the needed rolls and LP

otherwise I'm just wasting exalts

But probably having a shit rolled but right slam 2LP legendary is better than the perfect rolled legendary with the wrong affix on it 😄

[blazing glacier]

Idk depends

Id rather a 4% glove with 1LP than a 2% with 2LP

[hardy forum]

yeah, for the glove it's important, then for the Blood of the exile boots, rolls don't matter that much and just getting any 2LP with INT + movement speed is better than any 1LP boots

I get it now

thanks!

[blazing glacier]

yea exactly bad roll blood is kinda whatever, so if you just roll them every time you get anothr 2LP until its eventually good enough its fine

I wouldn't do that with unstable core though unless I had two of them with 2LP

if you brick the rolls it becomes worse than a 1LP

Same with shattered worlds, if you manage to get 2LP, rolling that is brutal

[hardy forum]

Lol I got 2x SW drops from one uber 😄 One of them was 1LP with 5% crit 😄 I guess I1m done for the day 😄

[agile falcon]

I thought I had missed a patch and that it had removed the functionality

[candid elm]

If you'd please push the F8 key with that dialogue option to report that bug and let them know the language you're playing on. Seems like this bug was introduced in 1.3 with a lot of languages.

[gleaming sonnet]

any quick tips on surviving when hitting level 50? the monsters feels like a truck now and i feel squishy

[blazing glacier]

use affix shards to give yourself some defense stats, phys res, armor, hp, ward per second, etc.

[gleaming sonnet]

while trying to keep all resistance above 75%, yes?

[blazing glacier]

not really

res isn't that important, and being cap doesn't matter that much

especially early on

plus you usually only fight one primary damage type at a time in campaign

maybe two

[gleaming sonnet]

ahhh yes. that makes sense

[blazing glacier]

LE res doesn't work like PoE or whatever, you don't take 4x more damage at 0% res

[gleaming sonnet]

my def revolve around keeping it 75%. guess i need to craft some other def
much appreciated!

[blazing glacier]

yea if you are 75% all res at level 50, chances are you've neglected your other defenses

even in hardcore I don't res cap until very late end game, if ever

[desert tree]

@sharp smelt

The melee attack do get converted

[hardy forum]

how do I search my staff for double exalted T6 and T7 items? Edit: I figured it out "T6&T7"

[hardy forum]

Why does 1.1k corruption feel 2x as tough as 1k corruption? Shouldn't the monsters have 10% more dmg and health compared to 1k? Like 1k has 1100% health and damage, 1.1k has 1200% health and damage

[lyric bramble]

2t6+ I think hits your case a little better. I feel like t6&t7 leaves some cases out

that's the search that I use at least

[hardy forum]

thanks, I'l use that from now on.

If I die in a rune prison complex, do I lose all the potential Wand and experimental drops? I've done one after dying and got 0 drop, only T6 normal stuff

[faint cape]

You don't lose them exactly, but on re-entry the mages all have severely reduced drop rates

[lyric bramble]

even if they were ones you didn't kill before

you can still use the forge at the end though

[hardy forum]

yeah, well it's not even close, 0 drop again 😄 If I don't die I get pretty good loot. I guess I'll need to wear my tankier version for this echo 😄

[covert sparrow]

Help me understand Legendary Crafting. If I have a Unique with 1 LP and an Exalt with T7 Health and 3 other T1 affixes, am I guaranteed to get the T7 Health on my unique or is there a chance I'll get one of the T1 affixes?

[storm blaze]

As long as you run a tier 2 dungeon or higher you can select 1 of the affixes on an item for a guaranteed slam

[covert sparrow]

What do you mean select? As in I get to specifically choose? It's not randomized?

[storm blaze]

You get to pick, yes

But only on tier2 or higher

Do note that you will not be able to select2 if it's a 2LP item etc
it'll only let you pick 1

[candid elm]

If you run Temporal Sanctum dungeon Tier 2 or higher you'll be given a choice at the Eternity Cache to select one affix to be guaranteed to transfer. After that, any remaining LP randomly selects from the remaining affixes to transfer.

Tier 1 is completely random.

[covert sparrow]

Oh, ok. Thank you guys 😀

[candid elm]

Also on the screen where you put in the dungeon key and select the tier, it tells you the maximum required level unique that tier can craft. It only looks at the unique item.

T2, can craft up to LP unique required level 65.
T3, up to 75
T4, 75+.

So if the unique is say level 80, you need to run T4. If it's 50, T2 is fine.

And no you don't get more guaranteed transfers after T2.

[covert sparrow]

Can I run a Tier 4 if I want to craft on a lvl 5 unique?

[candid elm]

Yes

But if you take a required level 75 into T2, it won't let you craft on it at the end.

You don't have to memorize this. The screen where you select the tier lists it in a little box on the left. So you can just double check before you go in. Or if you like doing T4, sure you can just use that for everything

[storm wren]

Oh. :(
(I must missed that info)

I'm right this time. I don't remember Mike mentioned skill sigil will not in 1.4 on discord

[shy turret]

its been mentioned before, just because you search for a string from a person, doesn't mean he didn't answer a question that someone has asked and he has just said 'no'.

[storm blaze]

Yeah he has answered that in the discord before

[sharp ibex]

Guys, how to very fast farm CoF favor?

[quiet terrace]

Fast clear monolith echos on high corruption (500+ if you can do it) I think…

[toxic echo]

yea its just play game more. get more xp, kill more things.

[winged crown]

Remember to take xp blessing and get anything that gives favor, xp and increased pack size in the weaver tree if you have points for that

[sharp ibex]

No special echoes?

[toxic echo]

not really. its all about killing things, getting xp from any source, favor caches on the weaver tree, xp blessing. all that stuff. doesnt really matter what you do to get it

some of the woven echoes take a while to do, but the basic ones are fine if you wanna

[buoyant oar]

is there a list of known bugged interactions anywhere?
i haven't actually encountered any yet but i've seen a lot of people saying that there are quite a lot of bugged interactions that can essentially brick a build
i tend not to use build guides and i'd prefer to avoid theory-crafting a build, building it and finding that it just doesn't work as expected lol

[desert tree]

Unfortunately not really

https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/ninety-nine-little-bugs-on-the-wall/

This is the closest thing

[buoyant oar]

ah, that's a shame. i was hoping that maybe one of the ARPG websites would have compiled a list by class or something, which would make it easy to glance over before trying to build something
oh, well. thanks anyway

[desert tree]

Make sure when you start, to go ask in one of the class channel

Someone will know for sure

[sharp smelt]

Are there any cold skill conversions besides Harvest that don't get a freeze rate?

[faint cape]

Not too many, but yes there are some cold skills without any freeze rate

[icy drift]

Snap freeze is one ironically enough, since it's guaranteed to freeze so it doesn't need one

[storm wren]

Huh I think something about why no news for 1.4...

Maybe EHG stick on which mtx they should sell as supporter packs 🤔

Oh plus mtx have been the main way for EHG to get income and a question I seen on reddit "where did money go", it may be the most money-consuming part in game development. Textures + software licensing + human resources + error cost

[slow eagle]

that little bit more might be hitting a breakpoint against your build?

[blazing glacier]

that or specific echo mods making the difference but I've never noticed such differences personally

[slow eagle]

good point

[hardy forum]

Are those specific echo mods multiplicative? So a 30% more damage makes the mobs 1100% dmg * 1.3?

[hardy forum]

Yeah, could be, it’s also sometimes I just get too comfortable, forget to generate ward and die from a 3k hit 😂

[faint cape]

Yes

Well, technically the corruption is the multiplicative one. The echo mods are additive with each other usually (when they say "increased")

[faint cape]

There have been teasers, which is typically all we get until we are only a few weeks out. We've gotten more news than normal, which is "early 2026"

[barren stump]

I just don't get imprints.
In the second season, I played on a weak build (500 corruptions) and had a lot of imprints. Right now, I don't get any imprints in 5 hours of the session. I have a reflect shaman (1200 corruptions). Aren't the chances of losing a hit from mobs so small?
I'm currently looking for such a wand:

[toxic echo]

well if you are looking for wands and you have imprinted a sceptre, that might be your issue

[plain kayak]

Hazelroot is a scepter tho

Wait hes looking for wand lol

[blazing glacier]

Going to guess you are right and that they actually want sceptres. There isn't much difference between 500c and 1200c for imprints. The 2T7 rate is also low. Imprints DO proc often, but most of the time they change. Most imprint procs will be excluded by your filter.

Something like less than 20% of 2T7 imprint procs will be 2T7s, so if you only filter 2T7 you won't see many items.

[south ruin]

Hello guys, can some one review my loot filter please? (Im on campaign chapter 7, lvl 50)
https://www.lastepochtools.com/loot-filters/view/volV323Q

[hardy forum]

If I'm farming 1000c for 2T7 imprints, what is the expected drop rate that's realistic? Is it like maybe 1x 2T7 per hour (so let's say I do like 20-30 regular echoes), or is it more like 1x every 3-4 hours or even more?

Also another unrelated question: If I have all of my 1LP items done with around 2-3x full stashes of single T7 exalts, is that fair to now turn off T7 exalt loot and only pick up 2T6+ exalts? Or should I keep picking single T7s? I feel like I'm not really doing anything with them

[blazing glacier]

The document from my video gives an estimated drop rate per cache open. It really depends on your base though. Some bases may have a higher chance to apply T7 to the proc, or eat the T7 entirely depending on FP, seals, etc. Iirc "normal" was around 5 troves per 1 2T7

[hardy forum]

thanks I'll check it out

[blazing glacier]

Also I would turn off T7s yeah, and also 2T6+ tbh. You wouldn't slam a T7T6 or T6T6

Sealed T7s + T7 can be interesting if you are doing nemesis, worth keeping those

[hardy forum]

Why are they interesting? Feels like I can't havoc into a good slam exalt with it and I can't slam the T7 sealed affix

[blazing glacier]

its complicated, but it has a higher chance to transfer the tier and affix

in some situations, etc.

The "optimal" imprint base likely uses sealed T7 and/or T8 but it can be bad if you use it wrong

[hardy forum]

if I imprint the T7 sealed

?

[blazing glacier]

yep

[hardy forum]

I see, okay

thanks

[hardy forum]

do prophecies have decent chance for 2T7 exalt drops?

[sonic saddle]

No

Prophecies are essentially just raw drops. They will increase the rate at which you see exalted item drops of a specific type, but each individual item is not any more likept to be double t7 than an exalted item from a monster drop

And double t7 from raw drops is very rare

[hardy forum]

yeah, makes sense, thank you!

[shy turret]

there's still a use case for it though, for instance the general play would be to use nemesis towers to get all your 2t7 imprints, but you can't really target farm them. because you need so many different item types, you get what rng grants you at first, then work on those imprints. By the time you have made those gear pieces, you should have towered some more 2t7 basese to work on. By the time you've exhausted what happened organically, you use prophecies to target farm the exalts that are missing.

[sonic saddle]

Worth noting though that if you're doing something more than slamming double t7's then i'd say you've gotta get the base from nemesis

[blazing glacier]

Yeah I did brute force a few 2T7s with prophecies this season

[sonic saddle]

I'm working on a number of more complicated exalt crafts so nemesis bases are mandatory for the fp

But double t7 slams are easy enough from a ~40 fp base

[blazing glacier]

I think you can creep your FP up with imprint, I don't remember if it goes higher than a certain amount though

[sonic saddle]

40ish, but generally you're gonna lose desired affixes or stuff in the process that you gotta spend fp to get back anyway

[blazing glacier]

not really though, you FP creep first then make your changes

if change eats FP, use the next one

idk though

[shy turret]

i've slow crept up stuff before. it's a viable strat if you are desperate. eg, in MG and have no other option if you want to keep it sellable. but yeah i dont think i've crept it over 50, you can still creep up from 40s to high 40s though

[sonic saddle]

My current planned gear includes a 55578 helm, 7ex57 slammed belt and a 7ex567 pair of boots so yeeeeeah

Wish me luck

Tho there is a world where i go to 7ex557 boots

Loses me a few hundred points of health tho...

Wait... i could potentially do 7ex557(1) boots.... hmmm

[slow eagle]

now this is build craftin'

[blazing glacier]

I am confused by your affix formatting, you want boots with T7 T5 T6 T7? Why T6 though

T6 just makes the whole imprint and havoc shuffle a pain

[sonic saddle]

I ideally need ~25% cdrs. More is kinda wasted (don't have the mana sustain or cast speed for that fast a rotation) and less hurts dps an outsized amount

But 25% is a really awkward amount

I think i'm instead gonna try for t7 t5 t5 t7 (t1)

[fickle bramble]

similar question about the imprinting, does having the non T7 and T6 lots filled with T5 increase the chance getting triple T7 or T6? , i know triple T7 is super rare but have 2 or 3 (of course types and lots i don't need ) but didn't know if the chances had a buget system or just percent chance for each affix

[blazing glacier]

"technically" yes but not really

it's like so close to nothing that the difference doesn't exist

Same with T6, it doesn't really turn into T7

[fickle bramble]

thx for confirming, from what math i could find, it seemed the one in million echos chance it added also lead to the the thousands of useful 2T7's without open slots you could craft with.

[blazing glacier]

yep pretty much

[barren stump]

I just got the name wrong. It doesn't matter.
I periodically change the items in the imprints, swords, rings etc. - 7x/x7, all according to the guide. But I have absolutely no imprints this season for the second month already. And I can't figure out what's the matter.

[barren stump]

lol, just got the name wrong, lol

[shy turret]

imprints should be working. only things i can think of is imprinting extremely low fp item, results are gonna be bad. second thing could be loot filter isn't working properly which you can test by dropping your imprint on the ground

[hardy forum]

could you please explain why imprinting a low fp item is bad?

Here's what I did: I got a wand for my LB runemaster build. I need Crit multi and Cast Speed T7 on it, and Chance to chill on hit and lightining pen as T5s for my 3 or 4 LP Mad Ladle slam.

I made a wand that is the opposite, so it has 2xT7 suffixes, and prefixes are one open and one T1. But by the time I got to this, the FP got down to 0. I got a few procs from it already and managed to craft a slam I needed for my 3LP slam, now gunning for 4LP 😄

[shy turret]

you can get an FP reset, under certain conditions. one of them is it eats a random affix, which could be a t7. so it's not like you cant salvage a 0 fp imprint, but you wouldnt want to keep using it because the chances of it procing a 2t7 is lower

[hardy forum]

I see, thanks! So a 40fp 2t7 has a higher proc rate for 2t7s than a 0ft 2t7?

[shy turret]

yeah

[hardy forum]

okay, thanks

Those of you who have played with alts before, which one was more fun? Same stash as main to give it items, or Solo character found with its own stash? I wanna try to build a judgment paladin, and worried a bit that by farming items for it on my big main, I'll just ruin the experience, but I also don't want to be super frustrated trying to grind out an item that I might already have a great one of in my stash 😄

[analog raft]

unless you are trying to simulate season start or something i dont think running leveling gear/use previous drops ruins the experience at all

[plain kayak]

Same stash
I've made 18 characters thru out 3 seasons
The low level crafted legendaries really help leveling new alts

Kestrel, bee sword, abboreal circuit rings etc

[candid elm]

It's really whatever you prefer. I enjoy starting over fresh each Season where I typically only play one or two new characters. If you'd rather keep playing the same characters, you'd likely enjoy Legacy.

Currently all game modes have the same game content. New Seasons have a new leaderboard and Merchant's Guild economy is reset.

[hardy forum]

Thanks, I'll probably just mess around with the same stash then and see what I enjoy 😄 Thank you

[hardy forum]

I have these, or have seen them around as they're very common. Any other ones you'd recommend?

[candid elm]

Those are low level uniques, so they make good leveling items for new characters - alts.

If you have any with Legendary Potential, note that LP crafting doesn't change the required item level, so you could make some very powerful low level Legendary items for your alts to level with.

[candid elm]

Fire Starter is another one.

[plain kayak]

Lessons of the metropolis boots

Snowblind/Peak of the mountain helmet

[hardy forum]

Thanks all

[hardy forum]

which one is a better imprint then, if I'm going for a T7 int T7 cast speed gloves?

[lyric bramble]

Probably the first, but you're probably going to need to use one of the imprint pops to make a better imprint

for crafting those gloves your ideal imprint would be a double T7 suffix glove with at least one open prefix, and as much FP as you can get

you'll probably have to use the first imprint to iterate on that a bit

[rocky rapids]

the first, no forging potential is going to mean the majority of drops have no or extremely low FP, which will make it impossible to craft what you want

[hardy forum]

Thank you!

[shy turret]

i know this goes against everything i've said, but that second imprint is actually viable. you can get an FP reset that eats one of the t1s and it could proc with the perfect imprint first go. it makes a double t7 suffix with a t1 with the affix you want. whereas the first one will make a t7/x/t7. You'll who knows what that's gonna produce and you'll need to use a havoc the t7s into the right place, then removal. that's a lot more manipulation.

[hardy forum]

well, I ended up imprinting the first one, and in the 3rd trove I got a double proc. First one got bricked with the havoc, second one got xx/77 with 37FP left, so I imprinted that. The prefixes were 3 and 4 so I didn't attempt to seal or remove them for now. Will see

[shy turret]

yeah that's going as expected then. almost there

[barren stump]

I'm asking for help, well, maybe I caught some kind of bug with the imprint.
2 days ago, I already wrote about the problem that my imprints don't drop when killing monsters.
From chests (Unclaimed Trove/Sealed Riches) - imprints are dropped.
Quest reward (Echoing Riches) is rare, but it gets dropped.
From killing mobs 0 imprints (Commoner's Riches).

I raised corruptions from 1200 to 1900 - during this time, of course, I had to run a lot of echoes - 0 imprints.
I took a more suitable weapon (screenshot) for the imprint, but it didn't help. I'm playing Legacy on Reflect Shaman. I run for 7 hours with the usual echo and woven echo (reflect with 240% movespeed) - this is a build for very fast map cleanup. Nothing helps.

1. Maybe reflect doesn't count as killing mobs?
2. Can any passives in woven echo or blessings block this?
3. Or maybe something can help with for farm of imprints (woven echo or blessings) and I'm missing something.
4. Maybe the item base (katana) is very rare.
5. I have a lot of characters on legacy, with imprints in woven tree - can it fail?
   I understand that there are a lot of superstitious questions here, but I'm just trying to find the problem.

Help me find the reason, if I really have some kind of problem,** I need to inform the developers.**

[shut walrus]

hey how do i know how much stacks my shred armor is doing?

[slow eagle]

go to tunk lab (its pinned in the class chat channels) and use the armor caluclator there, you can swap it to shred and see

enemies always have 0 armor

this page

[shut walrus]

im wondering how much % of shred armor I would need for 150 stacks?

[slow eagle]

ohhhh

go to the training dummies at champions gate and smack them and look at the debuff stacks

[shut walrus]

ive never done dummies before

i will with my 164% and see

[slow eagle]

therse dummies for groups, single enemies and the one all the way to the left counts as a boss

[shut walrus]

does it tell me how many stacks im doing?

if so, where?

[slow eagle]

hover your mouse over the dummy and its healthbar should show up with the armor shred stack counter on it

just like if your checking debuffs on enemies

[shut walrus]

i definitely need more

only doing 50 stacks

[slow eagle]

[shut walrus]

yeah when im done farming troves im gonna continue on to 10k corruption 🙂

[toxic echo]

You dont really want 150 stacks cuz of diminishing returns. Only really need like 80-90

[shut walrus]

in the rogue discord they said 150 is ideal

[toxic echo]

Nah. Its not that big of a difference. Like with 80 stacks you are at like 74% more dmg taken. At 150 its barely 81% more

The returns get really bad

[shut walrus]

oh okay that makes it easier to gear for

instead of wasting a bunch of affixes on 150 stacks

[toxic echo]

Yeah

[blazing glacier]

How are you verifying that it is actually 0 imprints and not 0 imprints showing on your loot filter? Also corruption doesn't really make a difference here, not anything meaningful anyway.

[barren stump]

Dropped 0 weapons with doubled t7 affixes in 7 hours of Echo farm.

In my experience of playing in the second season on a slow Forge Guard, this can not be..

In your experience, how rarely does commoner's rihes work?

[blazing glacier]

"Dropping Double T7" when you imprint a Double T7 is not what indicates whether or not the imprint gave you items though, it has over 80% chance to remove one of both of the T7s.

It is rarer than trove proc though

It seems like it varies based on the specific echo but assuming you kill every monster in the echo most of them would have less than 50% chance to proc once, and each item from a proc with a 2T7 imprinted would have less than 20% chance to be a 2T7.

[sonic saddle]

I'm passively farming my weapon stuff and i remember going days without seeing a double t7 drop

Commoners riches is real finicky

[sonic saddle]

Make in your loot filter that recolors single T7 1h swords

And look to see of you get random multiples of them dropping

[blazing glacier]

imprint an MG tagged item then filter for MG tag

do science

[sonic saddle]

Oooh that's a good idea

[barren stump]

Sorry, what is the MG tag?

[slow eagle]

one of the two item factions, merchants guild

it lets you engage in the player market

[shy turret]

mg tagged imprint really shows you how often your stuff procs with pure junk, rares and single t7s.

with dramatic loot filter noise and map icons

[blazing glacier]

Exactly, not getting many 2t7s is a very imprecise way to judge imprint proc rate. So many things can influence how the final item is changed. Some things like low FP, seals, etc. can completely brick the procs or make them better

[shy turret]

your katana isn't rare or bugged, but put it in sealed riches to see if it procs and your loot filter shows it. weapons and armor should go there anyway, since its the best and most reliable imprint.

[south ruin]

How the critical chance is only 30.9% ? Can someone help me with the calculation please?

[blazing glacier]

(0.05 + 0.03 + 0.02) * (1 + 0.49 + 0.64 + 0.96) = 0.309

[south ruin]

Ohhhhhhh now I understand the "increased" thank you!

[native sail]

Yeah if it were just a straight up 96% added crit that would be busted

[south ruin]

I think I made a mistake (not sure if this is the right place to discuss build composition, if not let me know where please)

So adaptive damage is a base damage, thus, % physical damage doesn't have any influence on adaptive damage, is that correct ?

So the damage calculation would be base damage (56) + physical damage(8) * % physical damage(2.12) ?
56 + 8 * 2.12

[desert tree]

Adaptive damage will be used transform, according to the skill tag

It will adapt to the skill type 😏

So if you use a Phys skill you get (56+8) x 3,12

@south ruin

[south ruin]

Thank you! I didn't know about this, it makes sense 😄

I realized I was investing a lot on %, and my numbers are really low, so 300% on 8 is still low, lol

[storm wren]

Something about Krafton in the latest time

[burnt crag]

ive read most of your posts, and it seems like you know what you're doing, and something is definitely wrong. I just imprinted a 2xt7 primalist plate on my lich and got 3 2xt7 imprints in an hour of monolithing.

have you tried unspeccing your whole weaver tree and filling it out fresh?

[barren stump]

**Thanks for your reply! **
I did not try to reset the tree completely, but I tried the following:

1. I reset weaver passive,** which have an imprint** (to insert the item again). I I also left only passives in the tree that required imprints, and did not take anything else.
2. I played for a while without passives on beasts (I thought that since they were added in the third season, maybe something was breaking them).
3. I tried different variations of the tree, thinking maybe I was doing something wrong.

At the beginning of the third season, I inserted a shield into the imprint (7x/67) and very quickly duplicated them when killing mobs (including several duplicates of 7x/67). But with other items, I just stopped getting imprints. I've tried with different ones - swords, scepters, jewelry, rings and red ring. But no more items drop out.

I read a lot of patch notes, thinking maybe there was a nerf imprint.

But in the patchnotes - https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/last-epoch-patch-1-3-2-notes/79385.
There is the following:

Fixed an issue where “on kill” effects were not triggered by Thicket of Blinding Light or Scournful Blood.

Based on the fact that I had a very successful experience with imrpint in the second season (on a very weak build), I personally see two problems - It's a Thicket of Blinding Light or a Legacy Character (but that's just my speculation).

**P.S. **I'm sorry that I write a lot. I just want to provide all the information and get at least some answers from the community. If this seems strange not only to me, I will write to the developers and attach my message in this discord and the community's responses.

[burnt crag]

yea definitely something wrong. maybe full tree reset just for science, it's most likely a wonky legacy thing. thicket kills are imprinting fine for me, but I'm seasonal.

[vestal hare]

what is this used for?

[toxic echo]

Favor. For cof/mg

[vestal hare]

tks

[slow eagle]

to tack onto Vlad's message, be careful of what base item your using, some don't have adaptive damage and instead will give like 40 cold melee dmg

also if a skill has 2 skill tags your adaptive is split 50/50 between those two tags

[vestal hare]

got another question. there is a halo around one of the maps in mono. what is the halo for?

[south ruin]

Oh myy, I'll be careful. I'm almost understanding the char stats lol, next step is skills + passive allocation

[south ruin]

I didn't understand, you mean for example if I have two skills that uses dextery. If I increase my dextery, it will be split between the two skills I have? 😱

[slow eagle]

No

So you got 20 adaptive damage

All your skills get 20 adaptive damage

If a particular skill has more than one damage type tagged, then only for that skill is adaptive damage split

[south ruin]

So in flurry case:

Does that mean If I invest in bow, it will be split with melee?
50 bow, 50 melee

or it's more the case of a physical + fire
50 physical , 50 fire

[slow eagle]

No, melee and ranged aren’t damage types

The things you have resistances for on the character page are damage types

[south ruin]

got it thank you 🙂

[slow eagle]

For flurry specifically I believe melee and ranged are both there because you can use it with melee or ranged based on equipped weapon

Assuming I’m thinking of the correct skill

[south ruin]

I agree

yeah, that makes sense

[slow eagle]

I would guess added melee damage doesn’t do anything if your shooting a bow

But I’ve played rogue like once

[south ruin]

You're right, I tested that

It's a long journey haha, but I'm almost being able to differentiate : damage between physical damage (which is more like one of the damage types, just like fire) , melee vs bow dmg. And also this base adaptive damage, which I was doing everything wrong

[slow eagle]

[gloomy prairie]

Hm recently my cosmetics options are reset with every client restart, and some cosmetics arent even working. Any1 with the same issues?

[toxic echo]

Try pinned post in general

[gloomy prairie]

I see, thanks.

[weak yew]

i want a minion build where my minions do all the work, will be my first build for the season, what should i go with? is Squirrels build still viable?

[toxic echo]

Yeah its still fine

[weak yew]

but it's not possible to start with it cuz i need the helmet first? is it possible to lvl with minions with primalist?

[toxic echo]

you would want to start wolves, since you need those for squirrels

[autumn flint]

i have a question , its been a while since i played but is there such thing as a custom items list that colours the items based on how good they are for my builds

got it , loot filter

[slow eagle]

the loot filter system in LE is the best

[autumn flint]

yea took me a while to remember thanks

[storm wren]

.

[bright ether]

which masteries got reworked this season?

[toxic echo]

in s3? lich and beastmaster mostly

[bright ether]

hows lich these days?

[toxic echo]

depends on how you build it, but its good

actually has an identity now

[bright ether]

what is it good at now?

[toxic echo]

its melee focused

but it does have a few spells proc's from melee

[bright ether]

lich is melee focused? thats surprising

did void knight get nerfed?

[manic bluff]

what map is the right map there?

[toxic echo]

pretty sure its just decoration

[manic bluff]

there are more here

I bet is more Maps to ru n

[bright ether]

whats this about paid classes in last epoch?

[toxic echo]

at some point in the future, looks like at least a year from now(around the time of the expansion), a 'paradox class' is coming as paid dlc. there is no other information on it.

there is a forum post in #news

if you want to actually read about it

[bright ether]

thanks

i thought they were busy reworking existing masteries since a lot of them are still underpowered from the beta days

[toxic echo]

they are...which is why this is like a year or more out at least

they will likely continue working on the game between now and then

[bright ether]

reaction to the paid class idea seems to be overwhelmingly negative

[hardy forum]

Yeah because the original promise in kickstarter campaign was that there is not going to be any paid content and they’ll only monetize through cosmetics

[weak yew]

i found a guide that mentioned that even without the helm its the exact same build so it dont change anything really

[hardy forum]

I’d rather have them break that promise and be able to continuously develop the game than to keep the promise but then go broke and have to retire the game entirely without any updates or bug fixes or support

[toxic echo]

yeah, if you read the post it goes into detail a little bit, but basically EHG hasnt actually been profitable ever. so its either this and 'break a promise' or let LE die. and this isnt even guaranteed to save them either. its just them trying something. if s4 and s5 are really good maybe they get profitable

[hardy forum]

Yeah the problem is eventually they will saturate the market and run out of new potential customers. Idk where they are in market saturation, but the more market share you have, the more expensive it is to reach and convert an additional customer. They might not even be close, so I might be wrong

[toxic echo]

🤷‍♂️

[hardy forum]

If you look at successful game studios, they all either release new games every year like EA with FIFA, F1 etc, or they have regular paid content like Hearthstone (3 to 4 pack expansions per year) or they have a subscription for the game service, like iRacing does in sim racing ($6-12/mo depending on your pricing plan and discounts)

[quiet terrace]

The ARPG market I believe has people who mostly want to play 3-4 games every season.. it’s not about market share there. I think it’s more about the content you offer any given season

D4, POEs and LE namely . Not to say you can’t convert other markets

[hardy forum]

I believe you, I’m not familiar with ARPG market, LE is my first ARPG game

I came from playing MMOs and looking for a chiller game where I can make builds but not have to stick to any schedule like events or raids, nor have the ability to fall behind if I skip a week or two

[quiet terrace]

Yeah there is no schedule in these games. But there’s the player engagement issue. After 2-3 weeks they stop playing having “finished” the season. LE suffers a lot more since they have less content. Unless you want to min max and push your character as much as possible of course

[wispy tangle]

Anyone else have the issue with cosmetic appearances arent saving upon logout?

[toxic echo]

pinned post in #💬┃general

[wispy tangle]

Thanks

[faint cape]

Yeah, that's largely why I swapped to ARPGs too, MMOs are great for a time sink but I don't have as much time as I used to lol. I've found roguelikes can also fill that build making thing in an even shorter loop (though there's a wide variety of them, so they don't always do).

[south ruin]

Hello guys, it's me again with my build questions 😛 Sorry for so many doubts
If my prefixes are like this:

will these "increased bow damage" affect the adaptive damage ?

[storm blaze]

yes

[south ruin]

Thanks, I'm adding it, but it doesn't reflect the change on epoch tools, maybe they're missing something

[toxic echo]

well the first affix isnt inc bow damage. its ALL damage while wielding a bow. so it will still work, but its just all damage

and it wont effect the adaptive dmg stat itself

cuz all the inc you get will show in the inc section, not the flat adaptive section

[south ruin]

I see now! Thank you!

[storm blaze]

The end result is the same though

[toxic echo]

yes

[bright ether]

uh, is last epoch supposed to use 9gb of memory when im starting it up?

[candid elm]

Trying it now and it's using a bit under 6 GB for me. The recommended system requirements are a computer with 16 GB of RAM so I guess it's 6 to 9 is in line with that.

[slow eagle]

woe to anyone who needs to buy new ram any time soon

a 32 gb stick is like 200$

[undone rose]

Does Purged Horizon node in the weaver tree still reset your echo web?

[candid elm]

Yes, you just don't increase Corruption from Shade fight.

[gaunt igloo]

does flame breath scale with minions affixes or regular affixes?

[toxic echo]

its a skill your minion uses, it needs minion affixes

[gaunt igloo]

thank you!

[solar monolith]

Please tell me if anyone plays Lich.
Has the Corrupted Form passive been fixed? Does it work as stated, "Always Count As At Low Life," or do you still need to lower your HP below 35%?

[hardy forum]

What’s the point of that weaver tree point? You can just immediately decrease the corruption in the next echo web with the temple and could have a point put elsewhere where it generates some value. I don’t get it

[bright ether]

how is beastmaster compared to lich these days?

[bright ether]

maxroll doesnt have any beastmaster builds in the top rank for speed farming

[storm blaze]

Beastmaster isn't exactly fast at clearing so speed farming on beast master? yeah good luck

Sure, it hits incredibly hard but lacks the speed

[fervent adder]

Question, if ya stack defences would it negate damage like this?
1000 damage hit to you reduced by 75% from resistances to 250 then reduced by 70% from armor to 75 then reduced by 60% from endurance to 30 then reduced by 50% from block to a final damage taken of 15

Also is endurance the only damage mitigation that cant protect ward?

[bright ether]

does last epoch have built in motion blur? because there are no motion blur settings that i can see

[desert tree]

Yes

[desert tree]

No

[fervent adder]

Thanks, would u mind sharing what other damage mittigation that doesnt protect ward?

[desert tree]

Pretty sure it's only endurance

[sly fable]

Damage dealt to mana before health is sort of like mitigation, and it's not protected by endurance without a special unique. But thats pretty obvious just given the name of the effect

[acoustic cloud]

Hello. Is chat deactivated right now?

[toxic echo]

ingame? shouldnt be. sometimes it bugs. if you reload it should start working

[bright ether]

hmm, if you do the dungeon skips for the campaign, you miss out on everything inbetween?

[toxic echo]

yeah

i think you get some passives and idols(might have just been talk about doing this idr)...but i dont think its enough to really make up for all the rewards you miss

[native sail]

2 passives and the equivalent of one idol slot reward (which is like 2-3 boxes in the UI)

Per dungeon, mind you

So basically knocks out like half the side quests

[toxic echo]

aight. i normally dont do the skips so i couldnt remember if it actually made it in

appreciate it

[hardy forum]

Is it normal that on the lowest settings on a 4k monitor with a 7800X3D AMD CPU and 4060Ti GPU I have 60-70 FPS, and sometimes it drops a bunch of frames especially in large scale battle when lots of mobs are there?

Even now with nothing running just Discord and google chrome, I have 30-55% GPU use. It's not normal, righT?

[native sail]

LE has pretty bad optimization

[gaunt igloo]

does anybody have a fix for the mtx bugg dropping your selections on death, entering and exiting zones etc? i tried the user appdata step but cant locate it on my pc

[hardy forum]

thanks

[desert tree]

[shy turret]

i have similar rig, better gpu but worse cpu and have similar frame rates. bit sad, but i have accepted it.

[hardy forum]

thank you, makes me reassured that I don't have some hidden virus or something on my PC

[bright ether]

why does last epoch still take so long to startup :(. installed on an SSD and it can still take more than 5 minutes to load

task manager showed 0 disk usage for the process so i guess it hanged

[tranquil drift]

How do I get more of this green resource so I can quickly gain stability?

[fickle bramble]

Who else has researched why they can't buy any more tabs, only to learn they were gona spend the night not doing monos 🙂

[faint cape]

They drop commonly from green loot lizards and harbingers. Aside from those, they also just drop randomly from killing monsters.

[lunar path]

If you have them and the collapsing horizon echo . Also drops them from defeating the harbinger

[tranquil drift]

What are they called?

[shy turret]

temporal keystone

[burnt crag]

normal abby drops a shit ton

I'm at like 1200 lol

[fickle bramble]

question. is there any way i should be finding "Julra's Stardial" and "somina" in "The Black sun" doing unclaimed troves? I thought i'd just not clean my inventory out but i've found like 4 after i started double checking....

[storm wren]

https://www.reddit.com/r/LastEpoch/comments/1ph3fsu/whats_even_left/
People are too boring...

They're so boring that hiring can be a topic

[storm wren]

Why not just apply and become one of members of EHG? They don't want money? Quite ridiculous...

This guy even no idea how much people seeking for a chance to enter this industry

[blazing glacier]

That's not how the resist mitigation would work. 75% res reduces the damage by 0 because monsters have innate 75% pen in area level 100

So 1000 -> 1000 on the resist part. If you had 0 resist it would be 1000 -> 1750

[fervent adder]

Oh

[bright ether]

welp it seems the lagon fight glitched and i didnt get teleported back to the platform

[storm blaze]

rip

[bright ether]

hmm i redid the fight and the teleport didnt work again. maybe im doing too much damage with DOTs or something

are you supposed to fight a third phase after you get teleported back to the top?

[slow eagle]

yea

[bright ether]

yea i think the problem is im doing too much damage, lagon drops to 0% hp before i get teleported down for the second phase, so he dies instantly before i can get teleported up for the third phase

[storm blaze]

Yeah that could cause it

[bright ether]

im trying to turn in the arjani quest to zerrick in majelka but he refuses to talk about it. where are you supposed to talk to him to finish the quest?

theres a pinging circle around zerrick here but he only wants to talk about the plan to steal the bird

[storm blaze]

Uhh I think last time I did it he just appeared next to Arjani

[bright ether]

thanks

[hardy forum]

Those drop from the Temporal Dungeon where you craft the uniques and exalts into legendaries. I don’t think they are random drops

[storm blaze]

You can get them with the Warden's Echo node

[hardy forum]

I see, I didn't know that

If I want to get more gold, is it possible to join MG from CoF, sell my non CoF valuable items and then go back to CoF with hundreds of millions of gold?

Or just have an alt on the same stash that's MG?

[shy turret]

anything that dropped while on a cof character will have a cant be traded tag, even if it doesn't have the cof tag specifically

so they'd have to be new drops from the time you made the switch

having an alt on the same stash that's on mg would work. but it's kinda hard to sell stuff for good gold these days, there was no inflation and no gold dupe. market has dried up and not many players left

[bright ether]

im having a weird problem trying to talk to Etera here. when i click the dialogue option, it starts playing the next part of the conversation and then skips to "use it and go. stay safe traveller" which is the end of the conversation

whats this place for?

[storm wren]

An unknown, closed, mysterious, unusual, unworkable waypoint.

[bright ether]

what happened to the crafting item used to add stability to a timeline?

[toxic echo]

temporal keystones exist

its no longer tied to crafting

should be a plus sign up on the stab bar

[bright ether]

oh that explains why my stockpile vanished

[wanton walrus]

does anyone else has a problem with the connection???

[sharp smelt]

Are there any Monolith timelines that either don't have swarmer enemies, or have noticeably fewer swarmer enemies? I'm playing a build with terrible AOE and they're kind of a pain in arena echoes. If not, I'll probably disable arena echoes.

[storm blaze]

I just disable arena echoes because I don't really like running them unless I also take the nodes to make them shorter

[sharp smelt]

How far do I have to progress a lineage in order to reset it? I tried ending the lineage immediately if none of the first evolutions gave horns, but it just kept offering me the same evolution options over and over again. If I accept one evolution and then end it the next time, will it reroll the options?

If I do get an evolution that I really like, if I just leave without choosing to end the lineage, can I keep fighting the same beast? Won't get the amulet that way but I am that desperate for horns on this SSF character.

[sonic saddle]

Yes but they're rare

And you can't really control for it

[sharp smelt]

I mean like, if I go to Ending the Storm, does that shift the odds noticeably vs farming in Reign of Dragons? I know some folks will push corruption in particular timelines just to avoid Wengari Patriarchs.

[sonic saddle]

It could shift the odds, but "noticeably" might be a stretch

I'm pretty sure there's extra weightings at play that affect pack vs rare spawns

[storm thunder]

i cant figure out the build i am trying to do. i want to do a ailment build by stacking bleed and damage overtime multiplier, but it wasn't doing high enough damage for Corruption 100, so i switched to crit and same issue. i am using Umbral Blades, Flurry, Smoke Bomb, Shift. . i am only level 90 now. i tried looking up builds but nothing is like what i am doing or trying to do. looking for suggestions.

[faint cape]

The reset is just after a fixed number of evolutions (which permanently increases when you get certain 'achievements'). You cannot keep fighting the same beast infinitely, you are always forced to either choose an evolution or end the lineage when the option is presented.

[glossy holly]

Do I remember correct that EHG promised quick development after the year+ of 1.0 with 4 month cycles instead and then said Krafton was a good idea because they could deliver faster and now it’s gonna be 7-8 months between cycles again?

[faint cape]

I don't think they ever promised any schedule, but it probably is a mistake to delay it so far back

[toxic echo]

that was the goal, as it always has been. they have met it one time since like .9

[quick crown]

just for clarification, does this sentence from the latest post mean that the campaign will be finished? or will there still be more to the campaign after these two new chapters are released?
Two New Chapters to expand the ongoing story of Last Epoch, including the conclusion of the Orobyss saga

[toxic echo]

yes, it is done. we were only ever getting 12 chapters

we have ten. plus 2. thats 12

[quick crown]

alright, thanks for clarification

[olive sluice]

has anyone here ever seen this glove? I'm making a bleed build, but have never seen it dropped, but Last Epoch item database shows it

and I'm at level 90 already

[toxic echo]

it literally says it cant drop

on your picture

[alpine pendant]

at the bottom it says can't drop, only comes as base for those two uniques

[olive sluice]

so it's used as base but where do I get it?

wait, nevermind, I get it now

[wary sierra]

there are more things like that, cannot drop as lower than unique because it only has unique rarity of it. The reason LE tools listed in there because it's in database, just not able to see it drop as non-unique

[olive sluice]

yeah, I see that now. I didn't see the "can't drop" right there, and asked a silly question, lol

[storm wren]

What bladestorm is...

[toxic echo]

a node in umbral blades

[storm wren]

The expansion will include contents from S4 and S5 because it's the most time-consuming one?

[toxic echo]

no. they literally told you what is coming where in the roadmap. they are all three different things.

[alpine pendant]

@sterile widget I can at least answer the first part of your question.
"Omen Windows appear as a new type of random encounter throughout both the campaign and the endgame."
^this was in the first paragraph of Omen Windows in the roadmap post

[sterile widget]

https://tenor.com/view/legal-eagle-puts-on-glasses-lets-get-started-gif-25933988

So it is

[primal kestrel]

Looking forward to season 4. Hypetrain has already started rollling. To bad there will be a long wait until march

[bright ether]

i think i accidentally pressed a hotkey and hid all the quests to the right of the screen. how do i show them again?

usually the game displays quests beneath the minimap

[desert tree]

Mind sharing a screen ?

[bright ether]

well it changed to a plus symbol but no quests showed up

[desert tree]

Oo

Tab ?

[bright ether]

it was working when i was working through the campaign...not sure why the quests wont show up now

[desert tree]

To move the minimap into overlay ?

[bright ether]

that didnt make any quests show up unfortunately

[bright ether]

oh i see the problem, i accidentally hid the quests from the world map and i had to add them to the tracker again

are primordial items supposed to have random implicits for the same item? not affix rolls but different implicits

[lunar path]

Send pics?

[storm wren]

General is too noisy... Move it here.

@white linden What's your answer for "The team have to delay something because of unavoidable reasons. But this team have been told something trust us a few times before. How will you explain that with angry/upset/disappointing players and protect the trust"? Plus nothing exciting in spoilers of S4.

I believe it's a good and interesting question on the interview for a CM. EHG gave a good context.

It's tricky to be hyped because the final strike is in the expansion due to roadmap, like 2 monolith of fate update, corruption tiers and etched timestones

[lament rock]

People still not happy with announcement? I think they need to touch grass in their lives in some point

[storm wren]

Back from touching grass 🤔

[dry silo]

Hey there, I'm a Sentinel with the Paladin Spec. However, I keep summoning swords or something that fight for me. Would be very interested in knowing where they come from. I read it's from the forge guard spec or something, but I did not spec into it

[storm blaze]

What skill do you use?

[storm blaze]

Because you have something that summons forged weapons

on Rive

[dry silo]

OHHHHH

Thank you very much :D

[storm blaze]

You might be going for the perk "Scrap Metal"
which instead of summoning those you'll get a stack of scrap metal which gives you armor + rive dmg

[dry silo]

Idk im following this guide xDD

[slow eagle]

scrap metal is a big node thats behind that funny minion summoning node

[chrome quail]

Greetings: all the recent stuff around roadmaps and holding back details for a big reveal or to
Make hype has me curious: given the mindset
Of arpg players wouldn’t a weekly trickle of info be more effective that an all at once seasonal reveal?

[storm blaze]

I enjoy the weekly reveals

[quiet terrace]

Hype week

I’m pretty sure they will still do it? I mean we have the seasonal mechanic but not a lot of specific info or ingame videos…

[toxic echo]

the roadmap isnt going to effect hype week or the extended trailer

but outside of the dev streams whenever mike gets back, i wouldnt expect too much

[chrome quail]

The announcement yesterday suggested they would have thought to hold back info but decided to release this well ahead of time. But, in general, does a hype week make more sense than a steady stream of bits each week between seasons?

[toxic echo]

hype week is just what they do

and honestly no arpg does drip reveals

[quiet terrace]

Ah I see what you mean… to me hype week makes more sense provided that the teaser trailer is released a bit ahead (as they did in past seasons)

Dragging it out over 4 or however many months gets annoying and they can’t really share too much throughout that period because it’s not locked in (most of the time at least .)

They do hype week because it’s content that’s locked in by then

[chrome quail]

Yeah. I think I’d enjoy week A is the new class, week B is the new skills, etc. hype week could be about seasonal mechanics and such perhaps. I feel like this community likes speculating and theory crafting so seems ideal to feed that beast

[chrome quail]

This would necessitate a rational production schedule of course lol

[toxic echo]

they couldnt do that. they often dont have things done that far in advance. all their teams are working on seperate things

and often times right up until hype week

[bright ether]

if i already have a legendary mod on an item, is there any way to reroll it this season?

e.g. from failed empowers

[daring topaz]

Anyone who could tell me something about Tunklab permutations for Rune of Havoc? Or that could point me toward the right person ot ask?

[slow eagle]

I would see if you can talk to tunk about it given its their lab

[storm wren]

@icy drift which points here are necessary to provide more info because of too vague in your opinions?

[icy drift]

none

[storm wren]

🤔 Maybe I can work on making that more clear

[icy drift]

seems clear to me

[storm wren]

I always feel confused on how to convince their game designers "this feature is necessary to add" because a random player never possible to know how they think

[daring topaz]

What do you find confusing about imprints in their current state?

[quiet terrace]

These are suggestions.. I think that what’s necessary for the game is defined by 1) developer opinion 2) total amount of requests and 3) other unknown factors we do not have knowledge… and not by how you would phrase your suggestions Kirra…

[bright ether]

the champion one in the top left is confusing. i tried it for a while and never got a single drop with the affix i wanted...not sure if it even works properly tbh

[storm wren]

#suggestions message
#suggestions message
Done. The full version of why I feel confused.

[storm wren]

yes lots of points I can't control... I want to ask what can I do

[bright ether]

this season still has no way to reroll items with legendary mods right?

[desert tree]

You can reroll the value

[bright ether]

yea i meant, converting it back into a lp0 item

Is there a hidden synergy with serpents milk or is it just that strong to warrent a 90% poison g need to pets?

For what I read sometimes ago, LP tends to stay around that of the item you imprinted, with chances to move it towards an average of around 38 LP (i might be mistaken). So if you have let's say 20, most time you will get exactly those LP, sometimes its gonna be rolled up a bit.
For the affixes, every affix type and tier counts as imprinted, and they have their own chance to reroll both the tier and the affix. Those chances of reroll are known and where spread to the community through a circulating document written by capNoobzor

[bright ether]

uhhh something seems weird here, i tried using the "use key to respawn" option in the temporal sanctum but i dont have the time travel ability so i cannot shift to the divine era to use the cache after killing julra...

[slow eagle]

[sonic saddle]

*FP

[sonic saddle]

"Does it count as imprinted" yes, to everything. "Similar" doesn't necessarily mean "same in most aspects"

In essence when one of those imprints triggers it takes your imprinted item, duplicates it some number of times, then for each duplicate goes through a process of seeing whether every individual thing about that item stays the same (or very similar in the case of say, fp) or changes

The rarity might change, so your red ring imprint might drop some exalts when it triggers, or your helmet imprint might drop a unique helmet or two

Fp might change, affixes might change, item type might change

There is a chance that you get a perfectly identical copy

Also your suggestions posts don't actually contain a suggestion

[trim pebble]

so if i were to do a SSF character which mode would be better SAF or SCF?

[desert tree]

Up to you

SAF allows you to share between your characters

SCF is strictly you get what you drop on that one character

[vernal sail]

What the heck does endurance do?

[slow eagle]

when under your endurance threshold, you get your endurance % as damage reduction

if a hit would put you under your endurance threshold, your endurance % applies to the portion of the damage under your endurance threshold

everyone gets 20% of your health as endurance threshold baseline

endurance does not affect ward

heres the in game game guide's version of it

[vernal sail]

Thank you so much

I've been confused on wtf it does

[slow eagle]

basically you can treat it like one shot protection

but its not perfect c:

[storm wren]

yes, I just explain why it's confusing

Let EHG to figure out... Appreciated your elaboration

[faint cape]

That sounds like #feedback , but I still don't feel like there's a need for separate channels for feedback and suggestions anyway

[storm wren]

I explore "how to convince EHG to add a feature I want" in essence

[sonic saddle]

@static light responding here to not clog up the dev questions channel.

I shouldn't have talked about missing the affix you don't want as that's obviously led to confusion. Where you're going wrong is that it's 2/3 x 1/2. You have two affixes you want vs 1 affix you don't want

[static light]

no no, i already figured it out

[sonic saddle]

Alg

[static light]

it's 1/3 to hit on 2lp vs 1/3 to miss on 3lp, i just had a huge brain lag

[sonic saddle]

Yeah, i talk about missing the affix you don't want cos that gives you 3 even chance end solutions, so it's easier to see the reason why it ends up being 1/3rd without having to consider the process to end up at that

[static light]

yeah i just overthink some things sometimes and end up like that

[hardy forum]

Did you die and respawn in the dungeon?

[dense nimbus]

hiya, i wanna ask if anyone tried to run this game on any android handheld thru gamehub or any emulator

[rustic kite]

does streaming from the computer to the android device count @dense nimbus ? if so, I do play Last Epoch by doing it, I use Apollo/Artemis for it.

[bright ether]

yes

why do tomes keep spawning in places that wont let me pick them up? seems to happen with favor chests a lot this season

also, wasnt this bug fixed? shift + right click doesnt move the items from the stash to the farsight turtle box.

why does this have a orange name?

[storm blaze]

Would need to see your filter for that

[bright ether]

its not a filter issue, even disabling all my filters causes some uniques to have an orange name

not sure why

[storm blaze]

Well as far as I know it's one of the more rare wands

[bright ether]

does anyone have an endgame loot filter that only checks for new uniques this season + LP2+ for rare uniques?

im getting way too many common uniques that i already have

[hardy forum]

I've reported this before. If you die in the dungeon and use a key to respawn, it gets bugged and you can't teleport between the times. Only way to solve it is to go back town and use the key and portal charm again.

[storm wren]

99 little bugs on the wall

[candid elm]

If you want to see a list of the new uniques added in 1.3, on this page you can deselect common at the top and you'll just see the unique items

[bright ether]

thanks

is there any way to reroll weaver idols affix rolls without changing the affix type?

[bright ether]

what affects the chance of "echo of a world" spawning in the web?

im quite far from the center

[candid elm]

Currently, no. There's just entire idol reroll at the end of things like Tombs and Cemeteries.

[candid elm]

If you just keep going in a mostly straight line, you'll hit an edge with the Shade Echo of a World sooner or later.

There is also a mechanic that immediately creates a Shade echo if the difference in Corruption between highest and current Timeline is 40+ or you have 8+ Gaze in current Timeline:

When the difference between the highest Corruption Timeline and the current Timeline is greater than 40, or you have at least 8 Gaze of Orobyss, and the current Echo Web does not contain a Shade Echo, then completing an Echo will create a Shade Echo next to it.
https://forum.lastepoch.com/t/last-epoch-patch-1-1-3-notes/73083#corruption-catch-up-buffs-7
Note there does need to be a blank spot next to the echo you completed for Shade echo to be able spawn into.

[bright ether]

thanks

[sudden otter]

Guys what the hell could possibly give me 1% leech on a bladedancer? Completely ruins my low life build LOL I don't have any passives active that gives leech. No blessings, no items

I have removed all my items, all idols and, removed all passives

STILL I HAVE LIFE LEECH

Never mind, it is the helm base 🥲

I was going MAD

[plain kayak]

That's fitting

[quiet terrace]

The indignity in your post 🤣

[sudden otter]

Well, one gotta admit their mistakes 🥴

[desert tree]

Do you have room for Boulderfist or Xinthara ?

[sudden otter]

I just made a new helm. I am very early in the game, just hopped back in. About to reach empowered monos firs this season

[slender geyser]

I'm playing a Dancing Strikes spec. What's the ability that is placing a big orange sunflower circle on the ground when I ocassionly hit something?

[desert tree]

Are you able to get a picture?

[candid elm]

Fighting Arena node? Or Gladiator's Oath unique sword?

[slender geyser]

That must be it. Graceful Arena node in Dancing Strikes. Thanks!

[desert tree]

That was my guess too but the sunflower thingy made me doubt 😅

[hardy forum]

hey guys, I finally found a 1LP red ring, and it has terrible rolls. I had a few bricked red rings and tried to reroll it but no luck. Should I just slam 16 int on it and move on, or is there like a minimum threshold roll I should get on it before imprinting?

[hardy forum]

currently:

[slender geyser]

How would you describe that circle design?

[candid elm]

I'd personally Imprint it, Legendary craft it, and use it until I got a better replacement

[hardy forum]

thanks, I ended up dropping a decent one from prophecies just now, and got 1LP from nemesis, so I crafted it 😄

[candid elm]

Once you have one Imprinted, it definitely makes it easier to get more. You can also use Gauntlet of Strife to reroll all the values and implicits with your extra copies or failed nemesis empowers.

[hardy forum]

thanks! my imprint slots are a bit busy with 2T7s though 😄

[blazing glacier]

Imprint either keeps or randomly rerolls each specific roll value, so in theory you imprint the ones with one perfect roll, then wait for 2+ perfect rolls, etc. Though the chance of keeping all roll values goes down the more of them you have.

[sturdy crane]

How does this cooldown business work?

1. 8s default cooldown
2. -2 cooldown so 6s base
3. +60% cooldown recovery speed, results in ... how long is the cooldown?

[native sail]

Should be 6 * (1 / 1.6) I think?

[faint cape]

Yeah, that

[sturdy crane]

So 3.75 ?
And when I use idols that reduce it further like this , those 11% would be added to the 1.6 to make it 1.71? Or is that not simply additive

[slow eagle]

cooldown recovery speed isn't direct cooldown reduction, each 100% cooldown recovery speed halves the cooldown

so like 100 seconds (0 cooldown recovery speed) -> 50 seconds (100% cooldown recovery speed) -> 25 seconds (200% cooldown recovery speed)

but if the minion has 60% it should be 60 + 11 for 71% minion cooldown recovery speed

[sturdy crane]

Ok, thx, you 3

[slow eagle]

have fun making the raptor go craazzy with skill spam

[sturdy crane]

I want to have an army of fire breathing raptors, a charmander army 😄
I don't know how strong it will be but I don't really care, this is for flair reasons

[desert tree]

You want to go Fire Spell DoT?

[sturdy crane]

Yeah, the Flame Breath should do most dmg, not normal hits

[desert tree]

Then I would advise you to look into Tempest Strike for Flat Dmg and Swipe to reset Rampage

[sturdy crane]

Thx will look into that

What's that

[storm wren]

Respond to this topic

[kindred narwhal]

Ah, thanks for clarifying

[sudden otter]

What are the best woven echo strats nowdays?

that is self sufficient

[lime wyvern]

in the Bear Beastmaster build how does it sometimes get a bonus HP? where does it come from?

[desert tree]

I am not sure what you are refering to

[lime wyvern]

neither am i, forget it 😅 I watched 2 different videos with different hp bars and thought it was the same

[desert tree]

Ah !!

Its alright

[candid elm]

Probably still Lostwood Folly with whatever you want around it. I don't believe that it was changed. People often used False Temple around it as that had a lot of enemies, but you could use whatever you wanted to mix in as well

[shy turret]

it's folly surrounded by 5 troves, with rampant coast imprint. spread them out (3 directions) so that it gives rampant to proc. you can use rampants that drop naturally to bridge folly clusters and give them more room to proc. this can self sustain forever if you convert the horns into amber bags. do every rift beast mechanic you come across and always choose horns or petals as beast rewards so you can convert those into amber bags if you ever run low. (rare rune also pretty good reward if you want)

[sudden otter]

any video guides on this? I might need to see it to get it

I was gone since the trove strat

[shy turret]

dont think so, people just used same strats as last season but rampant coast means you dont need to fill folly with cemetary/false anymore

[bright ether]

what makes rampant coast worth farming?

[shy turret]

materials convert into amber bags

provides runes also

[bright ether]

does it have special drops compared to a regular rift beast?

[shy turret]

i have 3 million bones

nah its just more of the same

its also harder and pretty rippy for hardcore

[bright ether]

if you use nesting grove, can you get more than 1 rift beast encounter per map?

[shy turret]

not sure actually, havent bothered with anything else

[bright ether]

well this sure is an interesting "echo of a world"...

[hardy forum]

https://youtu.be/l3I-RUwBr74?si=butdKnl7MhQh49VI

this is just on the rampant coast itself and why its worth it.

[hardy forum]

Do you need help with that or the positioning of the echos on the web?

I also have a question about this. My mage is very squishy at 920-1k C but that’s where I was farming troves. Sometimes I get randomly hit for 9k dmg 😂 if I go down to 500-600C how much does that hurt the drop rate from rampant coasts and troves for imprints?

[sudden otter]

I guess I do the temple strat but with 3 120° lines from eachother

I think coast spawn rate shouldnt change depending on corruption

drops im not sure about

have not tried yet

too early in the game yet

[bright ether]

there are diminishing returns from high corruptions, iirc about 300 corruption is the sweet spot, only go higher if you can still kill quickly

yea i just checked, at 300 corruption the chance for a lp1 evolution's end is about 30%. going to 1000 corruption only increases it to 32% or so.

im not sure how it affects stuff like exalts though

https://lastepoch.tunklab.com/monolith-scaling you can use this to check the difference between different corruption levels

[shy turret]

there's not gonna much difference in terms of imprints proccing from 600 to 1k, so you're better off at 600 if it means you never die.

im better off farming at 800 on reflect shaman than 8000 on acid flask rogue

[sonic saddle]

There is basically 0 difference in imprint proc rates

Past 600 corr

[bright ether]

are you saying there is a difference below 600 corruption

[bright ether]

is it worth farming bloodline glade

[bright ether]

did they nerf amber drop rate this season? im only getting 150+ amber from a tomb/cemetary boss at corruption 300+. and im burning through amber really quickly if i reroll idols

[maiden garden]

Looking for a build recommendation.
I am looking for a DOT build that is kind of a "spreading disease" type of playstyle similar to how you could do a locust swarm on witch doctor in D3, or kind of like the E skill of Malzahar in LoL, or I think PoE witch had a pretty good build too where there's just a DOT pestilence of some sort that you can cast and it "infects" an enemy and spreads to other enemeis automatically.
What's the closest to this type of build/gameplay in LE?

[desert tree]

Torment warlock, or smth with spirit plague

[maiden garden]

Ok thanks I'll look at that more. I keep getting sidetracked with minion builds, so I missed that

[desert tree]

Going from a to b, through c, d, e, f and g is the best way to explore the game

[hardy forum]

Thanks all for your answers about my corruption Q

[sonic saddle]

afaik yes, but idk how much

[sonic saddle]

in general it's a good one to do just as you hit corr 100

to get an impactful champion affix

for example for a companion build bm it's good to do to get a minion tele ring

however it's not great for rift beast parts

[sonic saddle]

@rustic kite see these boots for proof of warlords actually dropping things. sealed experimental affix is otherwise impossible to obtain

[sonic saddle]

also just spec'd into it and setup a filter rule to show any trigger from it

so it's definitely working

all of those were crappy rares lul, the drops from it are garbage

[faint cape]

Warlord's riches has some interesting niche possible uses, but like 99.999% it is useless

[sonic saddle]

nah, at the end of the day the drops from it are just too trash

it's actually not reasonable to expect to get a T7 item with everything you'd want from it

and focusing on farming it involves MASSIVE investment on the weaver tree

[faint cape]

Yeah, its niche use case is getting low tier seals of experimentals. The odds of getting anything good are super low, but it's the only way to get them.

maybe some other options for it, but idk if it's really useful for anything that you could acquire in literally any other way

[sonic saddle]

it's easier to get double T7 gear from other imprints

than it is to get single T6 gear from warlords

the opportunity cost of farming it is absurd

[faint cape]

idk why they made its rates so bad

[sonic saddle]

for frankly substandard gear

idk why they made it have no rarity bonus

experimental items from exiled mages have rarity bonuses

why didn't they do the same thing for warlords i have no idea

[faint cape]

It's truly a bait node

[hardy forum]

It is dropping indeed: Sealed T6 crafted is also impossible afaik. However my problem is that I want a 2T7 that has T7 lightning blast and T7 int and then the sealed vilatria set. So not much use for now. Not sure how I got T6 on the seal here, because the original imprint was a T7 T6 but the vilatria wqas sealed there as T1

[bright ether]

so this could thereotically drop a sealed t7 affix?

[snow marsh]

Hello the commu, sorry to bother you guys, i've got a question with no answer online and was wondering if maybe you guys had an logical explanation.
My partner and i are in the same group and same lvl, but she no longer see the message and spawn for nemesis that i see when we play together, so no more nemesis for her, How come ?

[faint cape]

Yeah, it's impossible to seal T5, 6, or 7 yourself

[faint cape]

Yes, with extreeeeemely low chance

[faint cape]

Did she jump ahead at all (like to the monolith, for example)? In the campaign, it is possible for this to happen when backtracking

You guys are in the last chapter of the campaign though, it will no longer block her nemesis spawns once you guys get to the monolith

[snow marsh]

Thanks for the answer, i don't think she went to the monolith ahead but if it might get solved by simply continuing the campaign i think we'll just continu hoping for that to happen.
Thanks again 🤞

[agile falcon]

hello

Do you know why the same item doesnt have the same rotation? I noticed that.

One looks to the right and one looks to the left

[toxic echo]

its a legit dupe, i answered in in #👨┃ask-the-devs-not-support-no-bugs

[hardy forum]

Hey all, for sepulchre of the lost echo, do i need to complete surrounding echos first?

[hardy forum]

I think so, this is my imprint item, and I used rune of havoc to get it to T7. But the ideal imprint here probably is a 3T7 for my use 😄 because even if it procs, I don't even get exalted affixes, because imprints very rarely upgrade

[bright ether]

hmm i wonder if its worth trying to farm a t7 sealed affix that way, last time i tried, i got nothing that was t6+

where can weaver idols drop? is it only the end chest in tombs?

[burnt crag]

any woven enemy, weaver idol prophecies

[bright ether]

hmm, not having much luck getting weaver idols with the affixes i want :(

and rerolling prophecies takes forever...

[bright ether]

why does this keep happening, glitched tomes that cant be picked up

[icy drift]

What happens if you walk into them without reaper form

[bright ether]

uhhh i dont think that would make a difference tbh but i can try next time

[toxic echo]

also sometimes the actual tome doesnt disappear, but you do get the actual favor. keep an eye on the number

[bright ether]

oh that might be whats happening, disabling reaper form doesnt make a difference btw

[pulsar elk]

is the "more damage to slowed enemies" from nightbringer multiplicative or additive?

[bright ether]

should be multiplicative

[pulsar elk]

thats what im guessing aswell

oh nvm it says it on alt mode thingy my bad

[desert tree]

When it says More Dmg, it's multiplicative

[bright ether]

what corruption level is uber aberroth's difficulty roughly at?

i know he doesnt scale with corruption

[burnt crag]

well timeline has to be at 500 to even place it, so that

but he do be tough

[faint cape]

I think I've heard people compare him to around 1kc, kinda hard to quantify though

[native sail]

He has a health total comparable to timeline bosses at about 20,000 corruption. Do with that info what you will.

[icy drift]

(a timeline boss at 20k c would do way, way more damage, so ubby isn't comparable to it)

[hardy forum]

I was farming at around 900C regularly when I finally managed to beat it first time. I think a good indicator if you can beat it or not is if you can at least trigger the 80% shield before the first slam. I consistently got to 80+60% when I managed to beat it for the first time. I also had to do a lot of practice because my main limitation became not my DPS but my positioning

[QUESTION-IMPRINTS] For common unique drops, like Grasp of the Blood Mage (https://www.lastepochtools.com/db/items/UAwRhGYHYCYg), what’s the better way to get to a 2T7 slam?

Option A:

• imprint 2T7 gloves
• nemesis uniques to 2LP (pretty low chance)

Option B:

• imprint legendary gloves with good stats and 3 brick affixes.
• grind until you have 2LP drops
• then imprint 2T7 gloves
• in the meanwhile, use nemesis to improve other items (like Mad alchemist’s ladle that can’t be imprinted)

So far, I’ve gone with both and it feels like the nemesis with the gloves is so difficult, I get a lot of 1LP and bricks.

[hardy forum]

Are roll ranges an equal distribution, normal distribution, something else or unknown?

for implicits and affixes I mean within a tier or for unique base affixes

@blazing glacier is this the wand that I brute force to 4LP for LB Runemaster Vilatria build, or is any wand above 40% shred and frailty worth attempting? Or should I just look at Shred only?

[hasty basin]

for zhp ballista, what is best 2nd stat for slamming on uetherin bow? beside bow physical dmg

[graceful cliff]

Hey @hardy forum a few things.
You do not need to complete the echoes you use to buff your seps. You can do coasts for running of course but multiple wovens have an echo reward that you can make sure 6/6 chests with.

For grasps I had my best stats 3 stat legendary until I got my 3 lp then I did those.

It is going to take forever bc even after thousands of echos I still didn’t actually drop a 3lp. Also mad Laddle is the best weapon I know of for sure.

Ladle specifically you do want shred but it isn’t enough of a roll by itself technically so I am going for shred on neck as well. The flat spell dmg represents a decent amount of dps.
I was trying to get none of them in the teens for ailment rolls.

[hardy forum]

thanks, I was running 6 unlcaimed troves with a sepu in the middle. Not sure if that's better than lostwood folly in the middle but it was fine 😄

[hardy forum]

shred on neck?

[graceful cliff]

You really don’t wanna do that FOLLY is by far the best for troves.

[hardy forum]

I managed to get a 2LP drop, crafted on int and cast speed finally, and rerolled it into 16 int, 4% crit 12% CDR and 25% cast speed. good for now

[graceful cliff]

Obviously play however you want but I would use my coasts around seps and some “filler” maps that you don’t have to run.

[hardy forum]

okay, thanks. So the important thing for sep is to just have 6 echos around it all with reward, doesn't matter if I complete or not

[graceful cliff]

And don’t forget it’s 5 - 1 bc you need a bridge to get there that will be completed before the center.

Yeah that sounds like really good gloves. 😊

That is right! You are better off using coasts and filler but save troves for follys.

[blazing glacier]

I never turtle 3lp personally but you can if you really dont care about 3lp, but you will wand many wands to recycle. Turtle is for doing many items at a time

[hardy forum]

yeah, I have like 10x now with 40%+ shred 😄

i think I have 5 at 3lp, might slam something but my current ladle is already decent

Is lightning pen better than chill on hit?

[hardy forum]

thanks!

nope, that doesnt sound right, what do you mean echoes not spawning?
